Chapter 29 Chapter 29 The Flood

Seeing that Liu Ye and I were staring blankly at each other, Da Ya quickly reminded us that this is not a place to talk, so stop being sentimental here, if that female ghost comes back again, it will really kill me. Both Liu Ye and I were a little embarrassed, and quickly looked away, packed up the things on the ground, looked for the direction, and continued to run for our lives. Da Ya ran wildly like he was having fun, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, he was leading the way, and I was exhausted from pulling the willow leaves, so I barely followed.When we ran back to the original stone room, our clothes were soaked, and water would flow out when we twisted them. It was as if we just took a sauna. The sweat on our faces was dripping, and we couldn’t even speak I have no strength left.

Da Ya panted heavily, shook his head at me, and said, "Hey, if you want to talk about your physical strength, it's really not to blame you. You just ran... After a few steps, you're just... tired Like a buffalo calf, just this quality...needs to be improved...improve!" I rolled my eyes at my big teeth, and bared my teeth at him: "Don't do surgery without anesthesia. If you grit your teeth hard, it's the same with you. Your hair looks like a cow licks it. Everyone is equally divided. Don't laugh at anyone else!" When we had nothing to do, we argued and bullied each other, and Liu Ye had long been used to it, panting heavily by the side, just laughing without making a sound.

Da Ya curled his lips at me: "What? Half a catty? Cut, you dare to compare with me. I have used knives in Daxing'an Mountains, used shovels in Changbai Mountains, fished fish from the bottom of Songhua River, and..." Just as we were talking, there was a sudden roar from far to near, and all of us closed our mouths at the same time, turned our heads and looked outside. The sound came from far to near, at first it sounded like an old cow roaring, and gradually it sounded like ten thousand horses galloping, noisy and loud. Liu Ye's complexion suddenly changed, she looked around at Da Ya and me, and her voice trembled a little: "Hu... Brother Hu, why does it sound like... like the sound of a flood! "

"What? Flood?" Da Ya froze for a moment. Liu Ye nodded slightly. Da Ya and I grew up in Northeast China since we were young. The place in Jilin Province has never been flooded once in a hundred years, so we didn’t know much about floods when we were young. Flood control has nothing to do with life.The river closest to my house is the Dongliao River. As far as I can remember, the deepest part is no more than waist deep. I have lived so long, and I have never seen what a flood looks like. When I was thinking about it, suddenly the ground under my feet began to shake, like an earthquake, and my whole body trembled non-stop.A cool cold wind rushed in from the direction of the door, the temperature was extremely low, and I couldn't help but shiver.Before I could react to what was going on, I saw a white light suddenly flashed at the farthest point of the flashlight beam, and then rushed towards us from far to near at a speed discernible to the naked eye.

water! ! ! It was really water, but the water was so powerful that it filled the entire passage, like an iron gate, and moved towards us quickly, and the distance from us was more than 50 meters in the blink of an eye. I quickly ran back from the door, scrambling and shouting at Big Ya and Liu Ye, telling them to get out of the gap first, the flood has come up! Da Ya and Liu Ye didn't care about anything else, they quickly got through the gap. In the blink of an eye, the flood had reached the gate of the stone chamber.Fortunately, the door of our stone room is not big, and it is on the side of the passage, so most of the floodwater continued to rush down the passage, but a lot of water still poured in.The current was so strong that by the time I reached the gap, the water was almost up to my knees.

I was just about to raise my legs and drill through, but when I saw the big granite brick that we had dropped on the ground earlier, I suddenly had an idea.With both hands, he grabbed the brick tightly, then gritted his teeth, and barely lifted the brick up again, placing it across the gap. Da Ya was stunned for a moment, and shouted at me: "Lai Liang, are you crazy? What are you pretending to be a wolf with a big tail? Come here quickly, do you want to be a martyr or a fairy? What are you pretending to be?" Terman!" I was so angry that I quickly roared, and told Da Ya, hurry up and get this brick over first, and then put the brick back to plug the gap after I pass by, it is estimated that at least it can block the water.

Da Ya curled his lips at me: "I thought your ideological consciousness had improved, but I still felt a little guilty in my heart, and I was self-reflecting, I dare say it's farting in my trousers pocket—it's a mess!" Liu Ye also couldn't laugh or cry, told me to hurry up, if it really didn't work, just forget about it.It is estimated that the further you run, the higher the terrain, and the less danger. I thought in my heart, no matter how high the terrain is, what's the use of it, now we are at the bottom of Erlong Lake, no matter how high the terrain is, this flood is not an underground river, it is obviously the backflow of the lake.I don't know where we triggered the mechanism. If Liu Ye's ring hadn't shaken off the ghost in time, we probably would have drowned in it by now.

With a force in my hand, I turned the brick upright, and then pushed it hard.Da Ya also grabbed the brick and pulled it hard.The size of this brick fit perfectly with the gap. We pushed and pulled it, and after a long time of effort, we just pushed halfway through. But at this time, the water had gradually risen, hitting my waist back and forth recklessly, causing my body to sway non-stop. What was even more frightening was the undercurrent surging under my feet.The situation was critical, and I didn't know where a strong force came from. Holding the gap with both hands, I kicked the granite brick over with one foot.

Da Ya was pulling back vigorously, when the brick suddenly fell over, the center of gravity was unstable for a moment, and he backed up several steps in a "thud-thump" manner. There was a scream, and then nothing happened. I hurriedly ducked over, and somehow crawled over. I glanced at Big Tooth who was still sitting on the ground grinning, and kicked his ass, telling him to get up and help me put the granite back. When the two of us frantically blocked the stone, the water had also risen to this height, and the cracks in the bricks had already started to spray yellow water mixed with mud forcefully outward.Looking at this posture, the water is soaring, and I'm afraid it won't stop for a while.It's not safe here, God knows how long this rock can last, we hurried out of the vault, and worked together to close the big iron gate.Even if the brick is washed away by a flood, the big iron gate can hold it back for a while.

Da Ya ran ahead and suddenly stopped, looked at the Japanese corpses on the ground, kept hitting his tongue, and told Liu Ye and me that these Japanese must have died of mercury poisoning as well. We also came to our senses. When we first came in, we felt that these people died strangely, and we didn't understand why these Japanese died here in groups, and the deaths were painful.After he died, he was locked inside like this, and no one cleaned it up. After a long time of trouble, it turned out to be mercury poisoning! It is estimated that these Japanese accidentally discovered the underground palace next door when they were building this underground vault. With their greedy nature, they definitely wanted to find out, maybe how long they spent in it.At that time, it is estimated that the mercury vapor in the air was much thicker than it is now. They must have been poisoned unconsciously, and finally died of poisoning, and died here.

If this is the case, it must be that after the accident, the Japanese did not find out the cause for a while, and the death continued to spread. Finally, they had to remove the gold and silver stored here, abandoned it, and then sealed it up. . Liu Ye suddenly asked us whether the "Wuqu" and "Pojun" were not plotted by someone at all, but were also poisoned with mercury gas, which made their limbs stiff and unable to move, and finally died in the formation. Woolen cloth? As soon as this matter is mentioned, we all understand it now.Judging from the symptoms mentioned by Wu Qu in his notes, it is indeed very similar to the reaction after mercury poisoning, and it is estimated that they are almost the same.I really didn't expect the result to be like this. Even we felt aggrieved for them. We actually died in our own formation, dying in a daze. Da Ya let out a long sigh: "Oh, when those old magicians practiced elixir in the past, many people used mercury as a material, and I don't know how many people died from eating it. Although the ancients knew about mercury a long time ago , but they still know very little about it, otherwise, 'Wu Qu' and the others wouldn't be so stupid as to fill the pond with mercury and run back to check without any protection. Life is long!" I quickly glanced at Da Ya, then smiled at Liu Ye, and explained to Da Ya that Da Ya didn't mean to humiliate Wu Qu and the others. Don't take it to heart. Hearing what I said, Da Ya also realized that what he just said was really inappropriate, so he hurriedly explained to Liu Ye. Liu Ye smiled, telling us not to be so sensitive, it happened hundreds of years ago, how could she make such a big deal out of it.What's more, what Da Ya said is indeed reasonable, it's better not to waste time on these trivial matters, and concentrate on getting out of here as soon as possible.
