Chapter 78
on, Sun Lao Da led the way and we all crawled inside.Inside was very dark, but the leader had prepared in advance, and we lit the torches we had brought.Hold high the torches."This... Big Brother, wha...There are gibbons, ferns, unidentified flowers and trees, as well as cicadas, burial pits, altars, a stone carving of eight divine horses, and finally, this small pool before us.
Hong Jie meant we shouldn't delay. Waiting for my leg wound to stop bleeding, Hong Jie got up and said: "Get ready, we're going in the water and swimming out."
">
Holding hands by the pond, she took a deep breath and turned to me, saying, "You're at the final step before climbing Yunfeng. Be brave, don't be afraid, remember what I told you We can all get out alive."
">
I gritted my teeth and nodded, "Understood, Red Sister. I'll do my best!"
"Inhale, take a deep breath.
I took a deep breath.
"I'm counting from one to three, on three we start, stay synchronized, the distance isn't far, hold your breath until the end, you need to keep a tight grip on me."
">
One.
Two.
>
Three.
">
"Jump!"
Without hesitation, accompanied by a count of three, and I jumped into the water almost simultaneously.
The water wasn't as cold as the underground river, but visibility was low. I held my breath and kicked my legs wildly, clutching onto Red Sister tightly so she could guide me through the swim.
Several tiny fish swam past me, diving down for less than a minute. I could vaguely see many stone steps underwater, one section after another.
The direction we travel is following the direction of the stairs.
Underwater there were no plants, so you didn't have to worry about getting your feet tangled up, but something unexpected still happened.
Because I was kicking my legs underwater while moving, the place on my thigh where the wound was bandaged opened up....
A lot of blood flowed continuously from the wound.
Because of the smell of blood, a black fish that was about a foot long came from somewhere.
Black fish aren't very big, but they look like they have teeth.
Red Sister turned back and saw the fish.
Her eyes were wide with fear, she desperately pulled me forward, her strength immense.
Such intense action is accompanied by the large consumption of oxygen in the lungs.
Soon I felt myself reaching my limit, my lungs aching from the lack of air.
Fresh blood oozed out.
Then, I saw black fish with teeth growing all around me gathering.
They huddled together, following the scent of blood, and finally locked their sights on me and Red Sister.
The school of fish is growing larger and larger, starting to swim towards us!
Walking down these underwater stairs, every step felt precarious. Ahead, on the water's surface, red dots of light appeared, flickering like torches.
"Glug," I reached my limit, couldn't hold it in any longer, and took a big gulp of water.
Pain came, and a black fish bit my thigh.
Then, the two...
The water's edge was getting closer, and Auntie Hong was attacked too. She went crazy, dragging me out of the water's reach.
"Help..... Help me!"
As soon as I popped my head up, I gasped for air and screamed for help, saying, "A piranha bit me!"
On the shore, torches illuminate.
Sun Lao Da and Sun Lao San held torches, staring blankly at me and Hong Jie.
"Little Red!"
"Yunfeng!"
Big brother and third brother put down their torches, without even taking off their clothes, they jumped into the water with a splash and pulled me onto the shore, tugging and pulling.
I still had several black fish bites on my legs, and Red Sister had about the same number on her arms. Just looking at them made it look painful.
Sān gē suddenly slapped his thigh, a face of excitement.
"That's great!"uite a bit younger than you. I'll have to ask you to call me Qin Ge. The thing is, Qin Ge, I think this could work out, but not right now."">"Firstly, we haven't fully recovered from our injuries and...
