Chapter 270 Return to Silver Moon Lake

"Chu Chu, why do we have to come to the lake?" the master asked as they walked.

The master was very happy to see that Xu Chuchu had recovered a lot of her cultivation, but he also felt a little distressed when he saw how hard she was working to prepare the plan.

Chuchu is young but has too much burden. I hope these things will pass soon so that she can live a stable and happy life.

Thinking of this, the master looked at Xiao Yu twice more.

Xu Chuchu told her: "We need to go down to the bottom of the lake. There is the secret of the five-star alignment in there. Maybe we can solve the conspiracy of the dog emperor."

This time they did not foolishly use the sound of the flute to split the lake water to attract the attention of the big fish. Instead, they bought a small boat and prepared to quietly row to the center of the lake and then swim down.

"We can't take this basket down with us, right?" Xiao Yu mentioned the bamboo basket he had been carrying all the way. "Someone has to watch over it on the shore."

"That's right." Xu Chuchu reached out and poked the bulge in the basket covered by thick cloth. The things inside shook back and forth, and she seemed very impatient.

"Then I'll guard on the shore!" Gigi volunteered.

His cultivation level was only at the second level now, and he didn't know if he could swim to the bottom of such a deep lake, so he simply stayed to guard it, which was also considered a contribution.

Unexpectedly, Xu Chuchu shook her head: "Gigi wants to go down with us."

She glanced at Daju and Master, and finally said, "Master, can you stay and guard this bamboo basket?"

Daju is lively and naive, so Xu Chuchu is still not at ease leaving him to her.

"No problem." The master smiled gently.

In her heart, Xu Chuchu had already become an excellent fortune teller who could stand on her own, so she just had to follow her arrangements.

Xu Chuchu took the bamboo basket and handed it to her master, whispering a few words to her.

After everything was arranged, everyone boarded the boat quietly.

Xu Chuchu and Xiao Yu were calm and composed, Daju was as excited as if he was on a spring outing, but Jiji was the only one who was worried.

His cultivation level was too low, so he couldn't help at all. It was fine before, he just followed along, but now he was about to go into the water, and he couldn't even protect himself. Why did Senior Sister insist on taking him along?

Did he want to train him, or did he misremember his cultivation level and think he could do it?

What if it's the latter?

While he was hesitating, someone patted his shoulders twice.

"Don't worry." Xiao Yu said behind him, "Follow me later, I'll take you into the water."

Gigi was so moved that her heart almost melted.

Xiao Yu had saved him once before, and this was the second time he helped him.

I used to hate this man so much because he bullied my senior sister, but now we feel familiar with each other...it seems like he is okay now?

There were wooden boards at the bow and stern of the boat for people to sit on. Gigi sat at the bow first, and Xu Chuchu chose the stern.

Xiao Yu felt a little excited in his heart, and he tiptoed to sit next to Xu Chuchu, glancing at her pretty profile from the side, and restraining the silly smile that was about to appear.

Although he was going to do something serious that could result in his life or death, he was not nervous at all and was a little distressed.

But he couldn't control it. As soon as he saw Chu Chu, his mood unconsciously became particularly good.

Just as they were enjoying themselves, a ball of orange fur squeezed in between them and didn't flinch even when it was squeezed into a meat patty.

"Sit across from me." It instructed Xiao Yu bluntly, "Don't crowd Chuchu and me."

Xiao Yu pursed her lips in anger: "Do you think we should follow the first come first served rule? Go ahead."

"Do you know that you have to balance your weight when you're on a boat?" Daju said righteously, "You're so heavy, sit at the bow!"

Xiao Yu thought to herself, how dare you say someone else is heavy, but she didn't say it out loud, fearing that Xu Chuchu would be unhappy.

The two argued for a long time, but Xu Chuchu remained silent, as if she hadn't heard anything, meaning that she didn't care.

Xiao Yu didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to compromise and stood up to sit opposite.

Daju suddenly smiled happily, and turned back into human form, leaning on Xu Chuchu like a soft worm, twisting and raising his eyebrows at Xiao Yu, his long orange hair swinging back and forth.

This scene made Xiao Yu's head hurt. He had to keep telling himself in his mind that it was a eunuch cat, and that Xu Chuchu had pickled it himself, so that he would feel better.

However, the situation that followed did not allow a few people to make a fuss, and the boat slowly sailed from the shore towards the center of the lake.

In order not to attract the attention of the big fish, they did not use spiritual power, but used the most primitive way of rowing.

Xu Chuchu adjusted the compass to detect the location of the big fish and tried to keep a safe distance between the boat and the big fish so that even if they were discovered, they would have enough time to escape.

"We're here. This is the closest way down." Xiao Yu put down the oars and said, "Get ready to go into the water."

Several people jumped into the lake silently. Xu Chuchu held the boat and burst out with spiritual power, pushing the boat away.

At this time, the compass began to spin wildly. The big fish noticed the fast-moving boat on the water and swam towards the direction of the boat.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, several people dived into the water and swam quickly towards the center of the lake.

Because there are usually boats coming to feed big fish, if it senses the presence of a boat, it will definitely follow it and wait for food.

Xu Chuchu used this characteristic to lure the big fish away and ensure that nothing went wrong.

She swam the fastest and led the way. Although Daju didn't like water, he could still keep up with her by using the cat-like crawl style.

Finally, Xiao Yu took Jiji with him and supplied him with some spiritual power every once in a while to ensure that he would not drown.

The few of them successfully found the hole they had smashed open last time and successfully entered the inside.

Seeing the unique world at the bottom of the lake, Daju and Jiji couldn't help but marvel at it.

Seeing this, Xu Chuchu asked, "Jiji, you've been in the capital for so long, have you ever heard of such a place at the bottom of Silver Moon Lake?"

Gigi rattled and shook her head.

Xu Chuchu nodded: "Let's go."

Because they had been there once, they didn't look at it again and walked quickly. When they reached the first fork in the road, they chose the road that Shen Zhaozhi had taken.

There were many forks on this road. Fortunately, Xiao Yu had a good memory and led people all the way to the mud pool without going back.

At this time, the black mud that had been washed out by the flood had flowed back again, filling the pool. The stench was so strong that it almost made Big Orange Stinky, who had a sensitive sense of smell, faint.

"Chu Chu, how are we going to get there?" Daju pinched his nose in grievance.

"We're not going past it. We're going to swim in." Xu Chuchu comforted him, "Just bear with it. It will be over in a blink of an eye."

Daju was stunned: "No, Chuchu."

"No need to swim." Xiao Yu suddenly interrupted and took out a small feather duster from his sleeve.
