Cold sweat flowed down from Chieko Yamaguchi's skin, which shone with a faint luster under the bright light of the cave, making her even more tempting.
But now Chieko Yamaguchi has completely forgotten all this. Her eyes have long been attracted by the deep and dark cave behind her, and she subconsciously held her breath.
"Zheng Xiao, look behind you." Her voice was full of tremors. Yamaguchi Chieko shouted to Zheng Xiao in a rapid voice, completely forgetting the identity of her prisoner.
Zheng Xiao was focusing on observing the underground lake and the giant crocodile in the lake. Her shout made him frown and shouted, "Why are you shouting? Don't disturb the giant crocodile."
However, he still turned around and looked in the direction Yamaguchi Chieko said. As a result, he glanced and his body froze, as if he had seen the same scene as Yamaguchi Chieko.
"Grandma, you are such a bear, this is too playful." Zheng Xiao swallowed, feeling that his throat was dry, and muttered to himself.
It's no wonder he was so nervous, because not far behind them, a huge black shadow was stopping there quietly, with two captivating green eyes staring at them with murderous intent, and a low roar was also heard in the cave.
It rang.
It was a giant crocodile. Zheng Xiao immediately confirmed it from the eyes that were the same as those of the giant crocodile in the underground lake below. This discovery made him go crazy: with interceptions in front and pursuers behind, how could anyone survive?
?
Unfortunately, the giant crocodile behind him didn't even intend to give him time to think about it. It roared so hard that the cave trembled slightly, gravel fell one after another, and then it rushed forward with a roar, heading straight towards the two people.
"Grandma's, let's work hard."
Zheng Xiao and Yamaguchi Chieko were so frightened that they were scared out of their wits. He didn't care that the environment below was also dangerous. He grabbed Yamaguchi Chieko and jumped out of the cave entrance and jumped into the big cave.
With a roar, the giant crocodile's strong hind limbs kicked hard on the ground, causing it to cross a distance of several meters and land exactly where the two of them had just stopped. The sharp teeth snapped together, making a loud bang.
A muffled sound.
After falling out of the cave entrance, Zheng Xiao turned over in the air and then landed on the ground. Then Chieko Yamaguchi also fell from above and fell onto a patch of moss on the ground with a thud. She was thrown so hard that she almost lost her breath.
go.
She rolled her eyes, and before she could catch her breath, Zheng Xiao had already pulled her up from the ground and rushed towards the underground lake.
There is no way out now. If they climb over the stone forest, it is almost impossible. Not to mention the rows of stone pillars that will allow giant crocodiles to easily catch up with them. Even the sharp stalagmites covering the ground can easily pierce through their feet.
They lose the ability to move.
The only way now is to swim through the underground lake.
However, there are at least a dozen giant crocodiles in the underground lake, so the danger on this road is no less than on the shore. They can only take a gamble and hope that the giant crocodiles haven't woken up yet, creating some opportunities for them.
The location chosen by the two people was the narrowest part of the underground lake. It was about ten meters away and was also the easiest location to get to.
Zheng Xiao was in front and Yamaguchi Chieko was behind. The two of them ran wildly and used all their strength. At this time, Zheng Xiao could no longer care about her. Life or death depended on her fate.
Behind them, at the entrance of the branch cave they had just jumped down from, the giant crocodile that attacked them had poked its head out and roared downwards, as if to notify its companions below.
"Jump!"
Rushing to the shore of the underground lake, Zheng Xiao jumped out. Under the dangerous and huge pressure, his jump actually broke through the limits of his body and jumped more than ten meters. He was only a few feet away from the opposite shore.
It's less than two or three meters down.
With a pop, his body fell into the river. The cool river water instantly stimulated Zheng Xiao's nerves, causing him to swim forward with all his strength. Under the astonished eyes of the giant crocodile in the underground lake, he rolled up to the opposite bank.
side.
Boom——, after a moment of astonishment, the giant crocodiles in the underground lake immediately exploded their camp. They swarmed and rushed towards Zheng Xiao. It seemed that they planned to tear this guy who dared to invade their territory into pieces.
fragments.
With a bang, a body fell into the water. This time it was Chieko Yamaguchi. She jumped into the water right behind Zheng Xiao, but because of her arms and her physical strength, she reached the shore before Zheng Xiao.
The distance on the side is a little farther, about seven or eight meters.
Seven or eight meters, if this distance was normal, Yamaguchi Chieko would really not care about it, but now, this is almost an insurmountable gap for her, which makes her feel boundless despair.
However, with her stubborn personality, she would not give up her last hope. She still kicked the water with her feet and swam towards the shore.
At this time, the giant crocodile had already caught up from behind, and the distance between the two was shortening rapidly, and they were getting closer and closer.
Finally, she successfully swam to the shore, but found that her arms could not use any strength at all, and she could only watch the shore that was so close and unable to land.
Behind her, the huge waves stirred up by the giant crocodile were approaching quickly, and it seemed that it would not take long to reach behind her. This filled Chieko Yamaguchi's heart with despair. She almost used all her strength to shout to Zheng Xiao who was walking away,
"help me."
Zheng Xiao suddenly stopped. When he looked back, he saw a pair of eyes full of despair and pleading. After a moment of hesitation, he turned back to the shore.
Reaching out to fish, he grabbed Chieko Yamaguchi's shoulder, lifted her out of the water, then turned around and ran away.
Under the river bank, the giant crocodile pounced almost immediately after him. Because of the force of the impact, the river bank trembled and made a shocking loud noise.
Yamaguchi Chieko shook off the water stains on her face and followed Zheng Xiao toward the exit on the opposite stone wall. Only when she climbed there could she be considered truly safe.
After taking a few steps closer, Zheng Xiao discovered that the entrance to the cave was just outside his jumping limit. If there was a climbing rope, he might be able to climb up easily, but now it was stumping him.
Behind him, the giant crocodile has begun to crawl up from the river bank. It seems that it is not going to give up. It will only take a few seconds to get here. By then, both of them will become a feast in their mouths.
At this moment, Yamaguchi Chieko suddenly spoke, "Untie me and we can go up together."
Zheng Xiao hesitated, he didn't trust this Japanese woman a little. He had already experienced her insidiousness and cunning, and had lost several comrades who were as close as brothers.
However, if the two of them don't cooperate now, both of them will be trapped here, with no way to survive at all.
