Lan Yu ran in silence and began to recall Officer Wang's daily words and deeds. The way he was always holding an electric baton to teach people a lesson was really hard to associate with the Longte people. I could only sigh in my heart that this guy's acting skills are really good, even better than myself, the movie emperor.

He sighed, but was slightly dissatisfied.

It would be best if we had the chance to act together. I will definitely be a better actor than that person.

Gradually, other people appeared on the road. They were odd jobsmen who did not go to the movies. They were running around busily and shouting in panic.

"Where is the warden?" Lan Yu heard someone asking.

"The warden is also in the warehouse. I heard that he will be giving a speech to the prisoners tonight, so two workers from our kitchen went to join in the fun. They haven't come out yet." Another person answered anxiously.

"Why don't they come out? Why don't they come out in such a big flood?"

"The warehouse door is locked. We took turns to open the door, but none of us could open it..."

The mountain wall suddenly exploded and water began to gush out. They were already moving very fast, but they had never encountered anything like this before and didn't know how to deal with it. Everything was in chaos.

Lan Yu and Lu Rankong looked at each other quickly, without saying anything, and ran towards the warehouse even faster.

As they got closer, the roar of the waterfall was deafening, the air became humid, and cold water droplets splashed all over their faces and bodies.

When they ran to the warehouse and took a look, they both gasped.

Although it was night, there were headlights every few dozen meters, making the area as bright as day. In front of them was no longer a warehouse, but a deep and large pool of water.

The warehouse was built in a depression, with a huge waterfall above its head. The water column directly hit the top of the warehouse and then flowed down.

The water flow was very fast. Only about ten minutes had passed, and the warehouse of nearly a thousand square meters was half flooded, leaving only the upper half of the metal wall and a roof exposed.

There were several handymen swimming nearby, and some suddenly emerged from the water, gasping for breath.

"How is it? Can you open the door?" someone standing next to Lan Yu asked loudly.

The handyman was shaking his head desperately and saying something. The sound of the waterfall was too loud to make it clear, but judging from his mouth shape and expression, he must be saying that the door couldn't be opened.

Lan Yu thought about everyone still inside, including the people in cell 11, and was about to jump into the water. But someone next to him was faster than him, and in a flash, he plunged down.

Lan Yu glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw that Lu Rankong was gone. He didn't have time to think too much. He took a deep breath and jumped into the bottomless pool.

As soon as he entered the water, he felt the coolness penetrate his skin, and every pore suddenly tightened. It was a unique coolness of groundwater, which instantly reminded him of Pelican Lake.

But now is not the time to think about these things. He opened his eyes in the water and looked for the location of the warehouse door.

The water was clean and clear. He saw someone swimming in front of him at a glance. From the prison uniform and the figure, it was obvious that he was Lu Rankong.

Lan Yu paddled faster, her long legs swinging flexibly, following Lu Rankong, and soon swam to the warehouse gate.

The door was located very low and was completely submerged in water. The two men looked around and fumbled around on the door, trying to find a place that could open it.

Because it is a warehouse for precious minerals, this door is built very solidly and firmly. It is unclear what material it is made of. There is no lock on the surface, only an information scanner on the left door leaf.

Lan Yu quickly surfaced, taking deep breaths while looking at the people on the shore. When she saw the medical officer's assistant standing there anxiously, she asked loudly, "Do you have a pass?"

This assistant is different from a handyman. He is a formal employee of the prison and should be equipped with a pass.

The assistant looked at him blankly, obviously not hearing what he said.

Lan Yu quickly swam back, repeating loudly as she swam: "Pass card, pass card."

After he swam back more than ten meters, the assistant was smart enough to finally understand what he meant. He took out a metal card from his arms and threw it at him with all his strength.

The metal card fell into the water in front of Lan Yu. He reached out to pick it up. When he turned around, he found that Lu Rankong had also surfaced and was breathing.

A large group of goose yellow balls ran over from the shore not far away, making chirping sounds.

Because of the shock of the explosion, the door of the nearby duck house was blown open and the ducks all ran out. These ducks are not afraid of people. When they see the light here, they swarm over.

They rushed so fast that the one in front couldn't stop and fell into the water with a splash.

It’s a pity that these ducks born on Quyu Star have never seen water. Those who fell in flapped their wings and screamed, while those standing on the shore stretched their heads to look down, opening their little flat beaks and calling out.

After splashing twice in the water, they began to swim around without any instruction. Seeing this, a few more fish on the shore jumped down hesitantly.

Then, all the ducks jumped into the water one after another.

When Lu Rankong saw Lan Yu swimming back with the pass, they both took a deep breath and dived into the water again.

Lan Yu quickly sneaked to the door lock and stuck the pass card on it.

Beep...

The information lock emitted two short error sounds and a red light flashed.

Lan Yu felt a chill in her heart, and she and Lu Rankong looked at each other in the water. They both understood that not only was the door locked deliberately, but the reading information of the door lock was also changed.

He looked around and saw an iron rod lying at the bottom of the water, so he dived down and grabbed it in his hand.

This iron rod must have been washed in by the water from somewhere. It is at least one meter long and as thick as a child's wrist. It looks very hard.

He swam back to the gate and groped along the frame, trying to find a gap to pry it open with an iron rod.

But the door was tightly sealed and extremely sturdy, with no gaps for inserting the iron rod.

Lu Rankong swam around the warehouse, trying to see if there were any windows or vents.

But this warehouse was built strictly in accordance with sealing standards. Not to mention the windows, looking outside, the entire warehouse is like an airtight iron barrel.

Only between the roof and the wall, there is a ventilation hole two inches high and one foot wide every few meters.

People can't get out, but water can flood in.

Seeing that the water level continued to rise and was less than a meter away from the vent, Lan Yu became extremely anxious.

He felt the metal door under his hands was also vibrating rhythmically. It was the people inside who were banging on the door in an attempt to save themselves.

The air in his lungs was almost gone, so he surfaced to take a breath, then dived again, ready to feel for the bottom of the gate.

Just as he stepped on the ground, he suddenly felt the light on his left side dim. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a huge black shadow swimming silently past him.

His heart tightened, and before he could turn around to look, someone grabbed his arm and pulled it hard to the right, and he floated away.

At the same time, the undercurrent surged underwater, and the black shadow rushed towards the place where he had just stood, crashing into the warehouse door like a flying object, making a dull loud noise.

The warehouse door shook a few times at that moment, and the water flow rolled up and spread out. Lan Yu and the people around him were swept to the edge of the pool and hit the wall of the crater.

Lan Yu didn't feel any pain at that moment. When she came to her senses, she found that it was Lu Rankong who was holding her in his arms, and he was cushioning between her and the mountain wall.

In the water opposite, a giant, pitch-black fish was rushing towards them from the warehouse door.

Its body was covered with black scales, and it had wing-like fins. Its wide-open mouth was full of jagged, gleaming, ferocious teeth, making it look like a pile of teeth growing on the fish's body.

This is a crystal-eating beast.

There was a gray stick-like object stuck in its throat, pressing against its upper and lower jaws, and it looked like a stalactite.

Lan Yu recognized it immediately. This was the one encountered in the underground Pelican Lake. The stalactite in its mouth was inserted by Lu Rankong at that time.

After just a few days of not seeing it, the fish had become much thinner, and its jagged bones seemed to be showing through the skin, which showed that it had been tortured badly.

Lan Yu saw anger and viciousness flashing in its little eyes, and it had obviously recognized her and Lu Rankong.

The crystal-eating beast flapped its tail fin and rushed towards them like a bullet. The two of them paddled hard and swam towards the two sides.

Although it cannot close its mouth and bite people, it has long teeth and can still poke a few holes in the body.

The crystal-eating beast crashed head-on into the mountain wall they were just standing on, causing another earthquake. Huge waves rolled up in the pool, and chunks of rocks fell into the water.

Lan Yu was pushed dozens of meters away by the huge waves in an instant. He felt a little dizzy for a moment and quickly surfaced to take a breath.

He looked up at the water surface and saw that the people standing on the shore were shouting in panic and waving at him to come ashore quickly. It was obvious that they had seen the strange fish under the water.

The group of ducklings were also hit and dizzy by the waves. Little yellow balls were floating everywhere on the water, chirping excitedly and nervously.

Lan Yu didn't see Lu Rankong, took a deep breath, and sank into the water again.

As soon as we got into the water, we saw the strange fish running around frantically. It obviously didn't bite anyone, but it hit the thick wall twice in a row, making it extremely angry.

Feeling the waves coming from Lan Yu's side, it turned around suddenly, and its vicious little eyes met his gaze.

Lan Yu spit out a string of bubbles in fear and was about to dive to the surface when she saw Lu Rankong swimming out from somewhere, stopping about ten meters away from the crystal-eating beast, raising the gun in his hand and pulling the trigger.

The bullet flew through the water at a high speed and hit the black scales of the crystal-eating beast. Although it failed to penetrate the skin and flesh, it left a bullet hole in the scales.

The crystal-eating beast that was about to rush towards Lan Yu suddenly stopped, swung its tail, and turned its huge body to face Lu Rankong.

Lan Yu's heart was so high at that moment that she forgot she was still in the water and blurted out, "Be careful..."

Gurgle...

It only made a series of bubbling sounds.

As the bullet hit the crystal-eating beast, Lu Rankong turned around and swam forward at a rapid speed. The crystal-eating beast swung its tail fin and chased after him.

Lan Yu was panicked and anxious. He looked around and saw the iron rod he had just held lying at the bottom of the water not far away. He quickly dived down and grabbed it again.

Just as he was about to chase the direction of the fish, he saw that Lu Rankong had stopped and was standing in the water in front of the warehouse door, paddling gently with his hands.

The crystal-eating beast was perhaps angered by such contemptuous and bold behavior. It shook its head and accelerated towards Lu Rankong.

Lan Yu also swam forward desperately, and shouted anxiously again: "Be careful..."

Gurgle...

boom! The crystal-eating beast crashed into the water, and waves piled up again. This time Lan Yu was prepared and grabbed a pillar beside him, preventing himself from being swept away by the current.

He tried hard to keep his eyes open and look at Lu Rankong in front of him through the rapids, to see if he had escaped.

Through the blurry layers of waves, he saw that Lu Rankong was no longer there, and the crystal-eating beast was also gone, and the warehouse door had been deformed, with a large dent on half of the metal door.

Lan Yu turned her head and saw Lu Rankong paddling desperately to swim forward in the water on the right. However, when he was almost approaching the shore, he changed direction and swam in a big circle towards this direction, with the crystal-eating beast following closely behind him.

Lan Yu's heart moved, she looked at the sunken door, and immediately understood his idea.

Seeing that the crystal-eating beast was getting closer and closer to Lu Rankong, he quickly took a shortcut and chased it from the side. Just when it was about to get close, he used all his strength to poke the iron rod in his hand and hit the crystal-eating beast's tail, causing it to tilt in pain and stop chasing Lu Rankong.

Just as it turned its head to look over, Lan Yu swam towards the warehouse door with all his strength, like a fish breaking through water.

He felt a rapid current behind him, and the hissing sound of the crystal-eating beast was carried to his ears by the water.

The light shone through the water, casting the huge black shadows of him and the crystal-eating beast underwater. He didn't bother to see if the black shadow was getting closer to him, nor did he care that his lungs felt like they were about to explode from holding his breath. He just used all his strength to swim towards the warehouse door.

Ten meters...

Five meters...

Three meters...

Just as his fingers were about to touch the dented part of the metal door, he suddenly pulled himself up with all his strength, and swung his legs rapidly towards the water.

The moment he floated up and left the gate, he felt the water flow like an air pump, pushing him upwards with great force.

There was a bright light in front of him. He had been pushed out of the water and was flying into the air. There were several small yellow balls around him that were also washed up into the sky by the water column.

It was not until this moment that a loud bang was heard from the bottom of the water, and the water under feet flowed back and rushed in one direction like a flood.

Lan Yu leaped forward in the air and landed steadily on the roof of the warehouse. While coughing and gasping loudly, she looked into the water, trying to find Lu Rankong.

The warehouse door had been completely knocked open by the crystal-eating beast, and water was rushing in frantically. He heard screams of alarm coming from inside the warehouse and a prison guard blowing a whistle. The whistle blew twice quickly and then stopped. It must have been swept away by the water.

"Well done..." Someone suddenly patted him on the back and said in his ear.

Lan Yu suddenly turned her head and saw Lu Rankong standing beside her, dripping wet, with a hand on his shoulder.

"Are you okay?" they both asked at the same time.

"I'm fine..." He answered at the same time.

Lan Yu then asked: "Where is the crystal-eating beast?"

He was just washed into the air by the upwelling water, and he didn't know what happened to the crystal-eating beast. It would be terrible if it rushed into the warehouse and started crashing around.

"It has knocked itself unconscious, but it's fine for now." Lu Rankong breathed slightly.

After a few more minutes, the warehouse was almost filled with water, the water flow began to slow down, and groups of prisoners swam out from the gate.

These prisoners were no ordinary people and were all good swimmers. They did not panic when faced with such a situation and swam towards the door in an orderly manner.

The few who couldn't swim were dragged by the others, coughing loudly and paddling in the water randomly, apparently having been drowned by the rapids just now.

Some ducks that were rushed in also mixed in with the crowd and swam out together.

Lan Yu saw a prison guard lying on the back of a prisoner, his belly bloated, his eyes half open, water flowing out of the corners of his mouth from time to time, and half of a copper whistle was visible in the palm of his hand placed on his chest.

He felt relieved and then felt weak all over. He simply sat down on the roof with his feet hanging over the water. Lu Rankong also sat down next to him, and they looked down together.

There was a lot of noise around, and Lan Yu suddenly felt something touching her right fingers which were supporting her side, causing a tingling sensation.

He looked down and saw three wet little ducks huddled beside him, one of which was pecking at his fingers.

Lan Yu tapped their little heads with her left hand and asked in a low voice, "Were you the ones who just rushed out of the water with me?"

"What?" Lu Rankong on the left thought someone was talking to him, so he turned around and asked.

Lan Yu smiled and said, "Nothing..."

"What the hell, what is that under the water?" The prisoners were all swimming out, and when they reached the door and saw the huge black shadow under the water, they couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry about it, just swim out first, it might be a big dead fish."

"Fuck, look, it's not dead. Its tail just twitched. This thing was banging against the door just now."

"Swim quickly, swim quickly..."

"Brother Qiao, Brother Bao, why are you two on the roof?" Liu Junjie's voice came from the water.

The two looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Liu Junjie and Qiao Fei floating in the water. Lin Lin was held up by one of their arms, his glasses were off his nose, and he squinted at them.

Qiao Fei also asked: "Just now we were just saying that luckily Brother Qiao had a stomachache, so you two weren't trapped in there. How did you climb up here?"

Lu Rankong did not answer, but only asked: "What about Qiu Daochen?"

"Here, here." Qiu Dao followed the crowd and swam out of the door, paddling with only his right hand and supporting Wang Jin's chest with his left hand.

Wang Jin obviously couldn't swim, but he paddled hard with his arms, and his two strong calves splashed water all the way.

Chen Zheng swam silently behind, unable to open his eyes because of the splashes of water created by Wang Jin.

The prisoners behind couldn't help but complain: "The guy in front, do you think those two legs are oars? Why are you taking pictures there all the time?"

"Even if it's a propeller, you have to bear it." Qiu Dao shouted at the prisoner rudely, then turned around and comforted Wang Jin: "Shoot, keep shooting."

Wang Jin stopped silently and rowed with his hands.
