Chapter five hundred and ninety-ninth unexpected dark grid
"Wow!"
"call!"
After jumping to the bottomless pit, Zuo Yang's hearing was soon occupied by the roaring sound of water and howling wind. Not only in his ears, but also in his head.
However, Zuo Yang still tried his best to maintain enough soberness and concentration, and was always paying attention to the following situation.
"Wow!"
The sound of water suddenly became much louder. Zuo Yang knew that this situation was very abnormal. Unless the bottomless pit had reached the bottom, the sound of water should never change at a high or low. It was not long before jumping into the bottomless pit, and it was impossible to reach the end so quickly. What's more, under the sudden violent sound of water, there was also some sound of water flow continuing to collapse downwards.
"Click!"
Zuo Yang subconsciously transformed the [non-attack] that he had been holding in his hand into a "flying claw" state, ready to save himself at any time.
The next moment.
"Wow!"
The sound of water became louder and almost deafening.
At the same time, Zuo Yang finally saw the situation below his body. Just over ten meters below, the dark water flow that was originally vertically downward had turned into many splashing white water splashes.
"Damn, there are indeed obstacles!"
Now Zuo Yang's descent speed is very fast, and the distance of more than ten meters is simply a blink of an eye. After Zuo Yang discovered this situation, he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately shot the "flying claw" at the rock wall on the other side, trying to slow down the falling speed while changing the direction of the falling, so as to avoid the obstacles below.
In this case, any light skills have lost their effect. Only such external forces can play a role. This is a martial arts game after all, and it is not a fairy tale that everyone can fly around.
Once you hit an obstacle at such a speed...
Although Zuo Yang had not tried it before, even if he didn't try it, he knew it would be a disaster. After all, there were countless players who fell to death every day in this game... At the beginning of the game, when Li Weiyong, a master of the Wugen Sect, was chased by Li Weiyong and forced to jump off the cliff, although he finally fell into the water and saved his life and got a sparse move called [Self-breaking Meridians], even if he fell into the water, he still suffered a lot of damage.
"Clang!"
The [non-attack] in the form of "Flying Claw" was as powerful as ever. The moment it shot out, it firmly grasped the rock wall on the other side, and then the chain connecting the tail of the "Flying Claw" suddenly contracted. Zuo Yang's descending body was stagnant, and then he avoided the big white water splash below like a mountain of ape and swung to the other side.
"Hey!"
The two almost opposite forces, the descending and the contraction of "Flying Claws", acted on Zuo Yang's arm in an instant, almost tearing his arm off, and even causing damage. Although he could not feel pain in the game, Zuo Yang still did not dare to support him too much. After just changing the direction of his fall, he quickly let the "Flying Claws" loosen and then almost fell from the side of the big white water splash.
It was also the moment when the white big water splash passed sideways, Zuo Yang finally saw it clearly.
It was a huge stalagmites extending from the side of the rock wall. The vertical water flow hit the huge stalagmites, which hit such a large splash of water.
If he fails to use the "flying claw" in time to avoid it and accidentally hit this huge stalagmites, he will definitely fail to break his bones.
"call!"
After breathing a long sigh, Zuo Yang secretly felt glad, but he did not dare to relax at all.
He continued to land downwards quickly, and several huge stalagmites appeared to block the way during this period. However, with the previous experience, Zuo Yang could already judge the situation below based on the sound of water. In addition, the large white water splashes that were blocked by the water flow were very obvious, so he was no longer as busy as before.
finally.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a sound like a shell, Zuo Yang plunged straight into a blue pool. The huge impact force made Zuo Yang's head a little dizzy. The experience just now was so exciting, it was so many times more exciting than the bungee jumping in reality... Although Zuo Yang has never jumped over, it can be imagined.
At this moment, although Zuo Yang did not hit those huge stalagmites, he also suffered some unavoidable damage, especially at the moment when he fell into the water. Even if he pierced vertically, the damage he suffered was not low, and the direct damage actually reached 4 digits!
But he was not dead, such a harm would not be enough to kill him.
"Gululu...gululu..."
After plunging into the water, Zuo Yang's body was still sprinting at the uncontrolled bottom of the water, so the bubbles brought up kept making gurgling sounds, which felt like diving.
It seemed that he had stabbed under the water for dozens of meters before he finally stopped the inertia of rushing down.
At present, Zuo Yang had not yet shown a "suffocation" state, so he did not rush to use the "secret of holding back his breath", but instead swam towards the water with his breath in his arms.
"It's great to survive. It's enough to prove that this path can be done..."
While swimming, Zuo Yang's heart was already much more at ease. At this point, the mission goal of helping Qiao Beiming "escape from the shell" was half completed.
After a moment.
"Wow!"
Zuo Yang finally rushed out of the water, raised his hand and wiped his face, breathing in fresh air.
After erasing the water on his face, Zuo Yang's vision also recovered. Looking around, it was indeed a underground river, and the underground river was quite large, with a width of about 50 meters... And this underground river was in a huge channel located underground, with water and air occupying ordinary channels.
If this is not the case, Zuo Yang would have to experience the situation he encountered in the tomb of a living person before, and use the "Secret of Holding Up" to force himself to swim under the water until he completely swims out of this huge passage, or he does not swim out in the end, and wait until the "Secret of Holding Up" has reached the time limit and suffocates to death in the water.
"Another step towards success."
As long as there is air, Zuo Yang will not die. As long as there is water surface, Zuo Yang does not have to worry about the physical strength required to swim in the water, because he also has unique water light skills like [Hanfu Playing in the Water], and because of the assistance of [Zhong Ling Diao (Evolution)], even when walking on the water, he does not even need to consume internal strength.
His heart became more and more stable, and Zuo Yang opened his unique world map and took a look.
He is currently at the starting point of this underground undercurrent, and is still a long way from the location of the sailboat marked on the map.
Of course, Zuo Yang did not expect to see the sailboat there.
Because in his consciousness, the people from the Laoshan School might have already taken that sailboat to escape overseas, so the sailboat naturally could not be left there.
What he was looking for was this underground undercurrent estuary. As long as the estuary on the world map was still there, he could take Qiao Beiming to complete the "golden cicada escape" plan.
then.
"Wow! Wow!"
Zuo Yang slightly judged the direction of the water flow, then jumped up from the water, and used the [Cold Duck Playing in the Water] to walk along the direction of the water flow.
The journey was very smooth. After about half an hour, Zuo Yang finally saw something different again...
There is a shallow formed by fine sand and reefs about dozens of meters away in front of it. This shallow is about the size of a football field, with no vegetation on it. You can only see a piece of yellow and black when you look around.
On one side of the shallow, there is a huge sailboat that has been stranded, but the mast of the sailboat has been broken into several pieces, crookedly crossing the shallow, and the hull structure has been damaged in many places. There is even an irregular hole larger than an ordinary door in the bottom cabin on the right. This is completely the wreckage of a sailboat, and it is impossible to use it to sail out of the sea.
"This... the wreckage of this sailboat is exactly the same as the sailboat I saw in the secret passage before."
Although the sailboat has become a wreck, its general outline is still there, and it is still possible to judge what it looks like when it is intact.
Seeing this scene, Zuo Yang was full of doubts. According to the information in the Laoshan Secret Road before, Zuo Yang always believed that the Laoshan Sect might have fled overseas, but now seeing the wreckage of the sailboat, he had some bad premonitions in his heart.
Didn’t the Laoshan Sect leave in the end?
With such doubts, Zuo Yang climbed this shallow, and then... was stunned by the scene in front of him!
On this beach as big as a football field, dozens of corpses were displayed everywhere. These corpses were wearing the same Taoist robes as the two Taoist mummies in the secret passage. However, due to the different environments, the corpses here were obviously corroded. Most of the corpses were left with only dry bones, and even the Taoist robes on their bodies were seriously eroded, and very few complete clothes could be seen.
If you look closely at these dead bones, you will also find that these bones have very obvious black marks extending downward from the neck position. This is a symptom of poisoning, which means that most of these people are poisoned, and the poison should be placed in food or drinking water.
Zuo Yang passed through these dead bones.
Soon he found a different corpse. The corpse did not fall down, but died like some Taoist monks crossed their legs and maintained a posture of entering into meditation. And it has been many years since now, and it still maintained this posture... In addition, the Taoist robe he wore was also different, the materials and workmanship were better, and these details all indicate that his identity might be extraordinary.
"These should be all from the Laoshan Sect, but what happened will make them who have already arrived here fail and suffer this great disaster?"
Zuo Yang was surprised, but he still did not let this corpse with obvious identity besides. He honestly and unceremoniously fumbled up and down.
However, nothing useful was found.
It was at this time.
"Oh? There are words!"
His eyes suddenly glanced at the relatively flat black reef behind the corpse. The reef was engraved with words, but because of the color, if you don’t look carefully, you will easily ignore the lines of small words on it.
With this discovery, Zuo Yang hurriedly approached some to check:
"Laoshan sent traitors!"
"The one who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors was the elder Sun Yan. I should have thought that this thief had repeatedly advised me to cooperate with the Jin people to seek peace, but I never agreed. Now the great Song Dynasty is about to go, and I have to travel abroad with the disciples of Laoshan Sect to escape to the country. However, this thief had an affair with the Jin people, and in exchange for glory and wealth, he cruelly poisoned those who were unwilling to follow him to seek peace."
"Nearly half of my disciples died of untimely death, and I was also seriously poisoned and my life was not long."
"If someone comes here to see this book in the future, it will be a destined person from the Laoshan School. I dare not seek revenge, but only ask that the destined person will hide in the main hall of Shangqing Palace. The whisk in the dark lattice behind the golden body of Emperor Xuantian Zhenwu brought with me my body. I am very grateful."
There is only so much content, and I have clearly explained the story.
However, this guy is very rational when he "dare not to ask for revenge". After all, this underground river is so hidden, God knows when will anyone find this place and his body be found... Just like Zuo Yang, according to Qiao Beiming's previous statement, it is obviously hundreds of years later. Even if there is such a traitor, it may have turned into dust. Where can I find him to take revenge?
However, behind this last words, a very hidden secret space is specifically mentioned, which is located on the back of Emperor Xuantian Zhenwu...
This is quite magical. If you say that Zuo Yang, the main hall of Shangqing Palace, has entered several times, he has never paid attention to this location, nor has he used the [Crystal Mirror] to investigate. If it weren't for this last words, he would probably never pay attention to that place in his life, right?
"Okay, even if I promise you."
Facing the last words of the corpse, Zuo Yang nodded slightly and said to himself.
This is not because of sympathy with the people from the Laoshan Sect, but because of the normal reaction of a game player. In a sense, this should be considered an adventure mission, but it is hard to say whether it can be rewarded. After all, the ones who released the mission and delivered the mission this time were all dead.
I searched the shallow again and entered the already dilapidated sailboat for searching, but I found nothing...
Zuo Yang was not too disappointed in this. After all, the purpose of his trip was to explore the way, not to hunt for treasures. It is now possible to be sure that this underground river can escape from the heavens and ascend to heaven.
This is indeed the case.
Because now standing on this shallow and looking forward along the flow of the underground river, you can already faintly see the white moonlight reflected from the water surface, and you can even smell the unique wet and salty smell of the sea breeze...
The exit of the underground river is there!
Chapter completed!
