Chapter 466: The pit
After spending so long with Echo Duck, although I don’t know it like Brother Yu, I can sometimes understand some of its movements and signals. Just as I was curious about everything here, Echo Duck suddenly spread its wings, and its neck turned almost ninety degrees, with two small sesame eyes looking straight at the brick door.
Nothing happened in the chimney tower. The echo duck showed abnormalities at this moment. Could it be that something was happening outside?
Xiaoxuan was close to her and made a gesture to Xiaoxuan.
So Xiaoxuan leaned out half of her body to check.
After watching for a few seconds, Xiaoxuan instantly shrank back.
She turned off the diving lights as soon as possible and waved her hands hard at the same time, and she looked extremely panicked.
Although the situation is unknown, we turned off the lights as soon as possible.
At this time, the visibility is less than half a meter! I can only see the green reflective strips on Xiaoxuan's diving suit. I touched the darkness and swam to her side.
Xiaoxuan grabbed me.
With her face close to her, I saw her eyes showing horror and her breathing was very rapid.
This makes her easily drunk and she signaled her not to panic and had to breathe in small mouths. Then I took off the gas cylinder on my left waist and held it in my hand, leaned to the door sideways, and wanted to see what was wrong outside.
Because the lights were turned off, it was very dark and I couldn't see anything.
So I turned on the backup light.
In an instant, my pupils contracted.
I saw clusters of black hair appeared in the green water in front of me.
My heart was almost stopped when I was scared.
I quickly turned off the spare light.
After a while, I turned on the diving light again and turned the brightness to the lowest level.
It's a watermelon.
Why are there too?
There are many, all from all directions!
At first glance, I can't count how many of them are. What's strange is that they are sinking under the "chimney tower" at a very slow speed.
I said that this place is similar to a patio structure. The brick tower is on the central axis and is surrounded by a deep pit that is concave. There should be no ancient tomb here. The reason for this design should be to stabilize the foundation of the brick tower.
Suddenly I felt something on my waist pushing my stomach and wanted to squeeze it out.
It's an echo duck.
I hurriedly pressed the duck back.
I didn't dare to let it come out because these watermelons didn't seem to notice us. They all sank towards the bottom of the patio one after another.
I curled up and hid in the small door, looking at the increasing number of watermelons in horror.
At this time, my foot was pulled a little, so I retreated back into the tower.
Douyazi wanted to get out and see, but I stopped him.
Tell me about the outside world.
I couldn't speak, I didn't know how to describe it, so I hurriedly used my hands to round it, and then stretched out my head with my hands.
The circle represents a wet watermelon outside, and the hands represent a lot of numbers, and they can’t count them.
Xiaoxuan pressed her mouth and asked how to get out.
He hesitated for two seconds, and compared the parking gesture like directing traffic.
Douyazai immediately pointed to the pressure gauge on the gas cylinder, then stretched out his two fingers and compared it with a "ten".
Seeing this, I drew a circle again and pointed at the foot.
He showed a look of doubt on his head and pointed at his feet.
I nodded continuously.
Xiaoxuan gestured at me, but I didn't understand what she meant.
Then, I stretched out five fingers to Douyazai, and then pointed outside again.
Douyazai nodded and pointed to the gas cylinder pressure gauge again.
Xiaoxuan gestured at me again.
I looked at Xiaoxuan's gestures seriously.
Still couldn't understand what she wanted to express to me.
At this time, I patted my head, pointed to the cloth bag hanging around Douyazai's waist, and then pointed to the top of my head.
I immediately understood.
Xiaoxuan was asking me where her bag went. There was the one-eyed hustle statue of the Southern Sect. In addition to the Echo Duck, the Southern Sect statue was the only thing we could rely on.
The bag was stuffed into the wall niche, so I went to get it right away.
After I got the bag, I took out the gilded statue from it.
Xiaoxuan signaled her to come and get it, but I didn't let it go.
Once the base of the statue is removed, the so-called "special fuel" inside will burn as soon as it sees water, and the right eye of the statue will be inflamed. The temperature under the water is abnormally high, which will burn the hand. After only a few minutes, the hand will be burned like that, so it's time for me to take it.
Douyazi looked serious and compared two fingers to me.
I nodded, meaning I understand.
Silently recite time in my heart.
When two minutes arrived, I hugged the statue and crawled out.
At least one-third of the gas cylinder should be used for return trip. Douyazi means that there are still ten minutes of quantity. Now I have been waiting for five minutes, which means there are still five minutes of safety margin.
The moment I got out, the echo duck also came out.
I put my arms around the statue and made a ban gesture to the duck.
Then I looked around carefully.
All the watermelons seem to be gone.
I quickly lowered my head and shone the diving light down.
At this moment, the pit under my feet was like a layer of black mist, completely blocking the light of the diving light.
I was fully focused and wanted to see what was underneath.
As a result, after hard work, I still couldn't see clearly.
So I gave up. No matter what is below, I have to leave now.
I flashed twice the lights.
Xiaoxuan received the signal, and she came out first.
At this moment, the Echo Duck suddenly spread his wings and rushed towards me without warning!
There is no time to think too much!
The first thought! I knew there was something behind me! So I turned around suddenly!
As a result, because I was too panic and didn't hold it firmly, the statue in my arms was taken off!
Xiaoxuan also had an instinctive reaction. She instantly clamped the statue with her legs! Then she grabbed it.
I moved the diving light and looked slowly.
I saw that a watermelon was very close to me, less than two meters away.
The echo duck stares at it.
It floated there, as if it was staring at the duck.
At such a close distance, my heart pounded!
I saw it! I saw it clearly.
Under the black hair, there were not a small dark red hermit crabs, one hanging on the eye socket of the dead skeleton. Countless crab legs hooked together and wriggled back and forth! At first glance, it looked like two red ribbons were hanging down from the eye socket of the skeleton, and they were actually moving and sinking in this way.
This ghost was afraid of the Echo Duck, and immediately sank after being stared at by the duck for a few seconds. The Echo Duck swooped over and chased after him.
I can't shout out loud, I can't stop it!
After Douyazi and the head came out, I took the lead in swimming out immediately.
As a result, the echo duck jumped up again after swimming not long.
Behind it was a huge crowd of watermelons!
I swam to the tunnel entrance desperately!
At this time, Xiaoxuan stopped and raised the statue.
Accompanied by a small amount of white smoke, the right eye of the statue with a human frog face ignited yellow flames again, and Xiaoxuan held up the statue and stopped in place.
I went over and wanted to grab it!
Xiaoxuan just held her tightly and refused to let go!
At this moment, Douyazai kicked Xiaoxuan in the stomach!
Xiaoxuan took off her hand in the statue.
Douyazi caught it and turned around, throwing out the still-fire statue.
The densely packed watermelons! They immediately retreated like a tide!
Chapter completed!
