Several people were standing there thinking, Xu Ye suddenly pointed to the exit and asked, "Why don't we go that way?"
The fool vividly described the rotten monster guarding the iron gate in the cave.
Xu Ye nodded after hearing this. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it.
If you keep going down, you don't know where it will end.
"How about we go back and kill it," the fool looked back. "It's actually a waste to walk now. I've had a face-to-face encounter with that thing. Apart from its great strength, I don't feel that it has any other dangers for the time being.
.”
Xiaolan swallowed.
Even a fool thinks that monster is powerful...
There were some differences in opinions, but the team could not be separated. After a few words of discussion, the exploratory group temporarily compromised, and several people changed directions and walked back.
When passing near the area where the hole was opened, the choking white smoke was still lingering. It seemed that the fire outside the castle showed no sign of extinguishing.
The fool walked to the iron gate first and looked back at the Taoist Priest and Lao Luo.
"Shall I open it now?"
There was deathly silence on the other side of the door, and there seemed to be no living thing.
"Wait a minute," the Taoist priest raised his hand, "don't open it yet, you idiot, block the door."
The fool did as he was told, holding the iron door with both arms. The Taoist priest flicked his left hand in the air, and a golden light flickered on the edge of the iron door for a few seconds. When the light dissipated, the Taoist priest seemed to have grasped something and put it in his coat pocket.
"What, is there power over there?" the Taoist priest asked.
The fool frowned and felt it for a moment, then shook his head.
"Bao Mu, come here and smell it."
"I can't smell it," Baomu said with a bitter look on his face, "it's so smelly here, I feel like my sense of smell no longer exists."
The Taoist priest closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then whispered, "Open the door, be careful."
The heavy iron door rumbled open, the Taoist priest put his hands on the fool's side in a defensive posture, and Luo Jiutian's light shone through at the same time.
The Taoist leader stepped to the front in one step and waved for everyone to follow. This time, Lao Luo came from behind to avoid the danger from the last time.
The distance was not long, but fear made these minutes become longer. Several people walked to the exit and looked at the sparkling water at the entrance of the cave, only to realize that the monster had indeed left.
After putting on the mask again, they rescued their companions and prepared to return to the garden.
Xiaolan paddled behind Qin Yin for a few times, and slowly felt that something was not right.
When I entered the water before, I had the impression that the water was very shallow, only about half a person's height.
But now I have been swimming upstream for a while, and I still haven’t seen the surface of the water...
An inexplicable panic hit Xiaolan's heart.
As if echoing the panic in her heart, suddenly, her left foot was pulled by a thin force.
"Jasmine, don't make trouble!" A few bubbles popped out of Xiaolan's mouth. When he looked sideways, he saw that Jasmine and Bai Su had swam above her head and were looking at her with strange expressions.
Jasmine gestured to herself, as if asking, "What's wrong?"
Xiaolan pointed to her feet and looked at them hopefully.
It must be aquatic plants. It must be aquatic plants. It must be aquatic plants. It must be aquatic plants. It must be aquatic plants. It must be aquatic plants...
At first glance, it looks really like aquatic plants.
The moment Xiaolan's eyes met that thing's, Xiaolan's chest tightened, and another string of bubbles rolled up.
The one grabbing his ankle was the monster that had rotted into a grass-green color.
Lao Luo and Luo Jiutian were swimming diagonally behind them and saw the thing clearly at a glance. They kicked off the water in the opposite direction and rushed towards it.
Everything in the water seemed to be in slow motion, and the two people's movements were much slower than on the shore. When Luo Jiutian raised his hand to shoot a black thunder, the monster had already nimbly dodged to the side, dragging Xiaolan downstream.
go.
Xiaolan felt the power from the fool's mouth, and she was pulled left and right like a waterweed. When her friends reacted and swam towards her, Xiaolan had been pulled into deeper water.
With no other choice, she rolled up her upper body with strength from her abdomen, and desperately grabbed her feet with both hands, trying to pry the hand away.
Moving his gaze downward, Xiaolan's movements were immediately halted by the underwater scene.
The green clusters that were originally thought to be water plants turned out to be a pair of rotten human hands extending upward.
It's exactly the same as the hands holding him.
The green hands were arranged one after another, so densely packed that it was difficult to see what was underneath the hands, but it was definitely not something good.
Never be pulled in.
Xiaolan grabbed the hand that was as dry as firewood, pinched the monster's fingers and pulled them apart hard. However, although the fingers were so rotten that there were almost only bones left, they were firmly clasped on Xiaolan's ankle like an iron lock.
We are getting closer and closer to the water meadow made of green hands.
If you are pulled in, will you... become a part of it?
Xiaolan gritted her teeth and reached out to hold the monster's wrist, intending to break it off directly.
But the moment his hand touched the monster's body, several strange scenes seemed to appear in front of him.
"Kill him!"
"Drown him!"
"This is a monster! It must..."
Among the angry crowd, a small figure stood out.
Through the turbulent water, Xiaolan couldn't see clearly the person's appearance.
"We can't..."
"I want to do evil..."
"calm!"
It's a girl's voice.
Why does this sound sound a bit like...
A scream.
Something crossed my hand.
"thump!"
The vision gradually became clearer.
Xiaolan still maintained the same posture as before, grinning and grabbing the monster's hand.
Monsters are different.
It raised its face and stared directly at Xiaolan's face with a pair of dark eyes.
The rotten eye sockets showed no emotion.
But Xiaolan felt that it seemed to be saying something.
With her hands feeling hot, Xiaolan looked at her fist holding the monster's wrist. A few strands of something like ink were pouring out from between her fingers and floating in the water.
The monster Bai Sensen opened and closed its teeth a few times, let go of its green hand, and fell down.
Xiaolan quickly let go of her hand.
It turns out that the black water did not originate from me.
Xiaolan looked at the black water that was constantly emerging from the monster's hand, bit her lips, and stepped on the water with all her strength. With a stroke of her hands, she came out of the water with a splash.
Seeing the surprised expressions on his companions' faces, Xiaolan understood that it was by no means a simple hallucination just now.
"It...poof!...bah...what did it do to you?..."
Qin Yin spit out the dirty water in his mouth and rushed over with water dripping from his mouth.
When Qin Yin removed the water plants on his head, Xiaolan asked, "Have you seen anything underwater?"
"Underwater?" Qin Yin shook the dark green water plants, "It's this stuff, it's everywhere, I'm afraid I'm going to break my secret..."
"What did you see?" The Taoist priest helped Xiaolan ashore.
"Hands," Xiaolan murmured, "I saw green hands under the water."
Qin Yin quickly waved her hand, "Impossible. No matter how you put it, how can your hands be the same as water plants? I can still tell them apart..."
The Taoist priest also said firmly, "What we saw is just water plants."
Only you are different.
Because you were caught, the world in your eyes has changed?
Xiaolan hammered her head several times in distress, "Forget it, let's go find Xisuo quickly. Feng and Que are still down there, so we have to solve it as soon as possible."
