Chapter 625 Escape from the mine!
Escaping from the mine is imperative!
The speed at which the moat water flowed back was much faster than Ye Mu and others had imagined.
By the time he reached the other three dripping points, the moat water had already reached his chest.
All the workers who had temporarily taken refuge here were in a panic, but fortunately, they quickly calmed down with the comfort of Mei Xiaoke and others.
As for the rising water level in the moat, it now slowly dropped.
This is also due to the fact that there are many branches in the mine, which makes the water flow disperse quickly.
"start!"
Ye Mu shouted at this time.
"Wait!"
However, Mei Xiaoke's denial was heard.
"What's the problem?" Ye Mu was shocked.
"Ye Mu, it seems you've neglected the issue of our shackles." Ji Linglong explained, "Captain Mei Qian is helping everyone break the shackles underwater. It will be done soon."
"this!"
Ye Mu suddenly realized.
He indeed overlooked this major issue.
Fortunately, Mei Xiaoke had reached the late stage of the Void Realm. Under the guidance of Xiahou Tie, the descendant of the weapon refining master, he quickly broke all the shackles of more than 300 people.
Then, Mei Xiaoke stood up from the water in a somewhat embarrassed manner, "Let's begin!"
Without hesitation, she broke through the third dripping point where she was.
The water in the moat immediately rushed out along with the collapsed mine.
Immediately afterwards, the people at the other two dripping points did the same.
The amount of water flowing back from these three collapsed locations was obviously reduced a lot.
In addition to separating enough water sources from the mine that Ye Mu had opened, Monta also arranged for people from the outside world to drain the moat water into the lake.
Otherwise, at this moment, the mine would definitely not be able to withstand the rapidly flowing river water, and it would probably flood the mine in an instant.
Today, the situation is actually not much better.
Although the water sources from the four water-falling points are dispersed into other tunnels of the mine, the original storage capacity of the moat water is still astonishing.
"The water flow is slowing down!"
Ye Mu distinguished them carefully.
Although the river water has now flowed back and has submerged everyone's necks, there are still four collapsed locations. Except for the place where he broke it open and it is still flowing back like a torrent, the other three locations have been obviously reduced in size.
Moreover, there was a collapse opening with a diameter of about two meters, and only half of it was flowing with water, which was enough for people to rush up through the gap.
"The water flow decreased so quickly, which is enough to show that Monta outside not only dug a canal, but also managed to block the river from above our position. Otherwise, the six-meter-deep moat water would not be reduced so quickly." Mei Xiaoke thought about it briefly and felt relieved.
"It seems General Meng has thought it through more thoroughly than I have." After hearing Mei Xiaoke's analysis, Ye Mu finally made a decision. "Linglong, rush over and check out the situation outside. Quick, now!"
"Leave it to me!"
Although Ji Linglong was only a cultivator in the late Jindan realm, she did not hesitate at all when faced with Ye Mu's orders.
“Crash!”
Ji Linglong leaped up like a carp jumping over the dragon gate.
It's raining outside.
She glanced back and forth and could vaguely see that the moat at both ends, about ten meters away from her, had been blocked.
This is also the reason why the flow of water in the moat suddenly slowed down.
However, she heard bursts of roaring sounds that reached the sky.
"not good!"
She looked around and found that the sound of fighting came from the west gate.
It was obvious that Monta and his men had fought a fierce battle with the black-armored guards of Dark Stone City.
"Ye Mu, the situation is very unfavorable to us. General Monta and his men are already fighting with the black-armored guards. You guys should hurry up!" She shouted hurriedly to the bottom.
"Listen up, all supervisors and centurions. You will be the last ones to go up. Help the elderly, the young, the sick and the disabled first. Hurry up!" Mei Xiaoke took the lead in giving orders without waiting for Ye Mu to make any arrangements.
Ye Mu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly divided the workers into three exit points and pushed them upwards quickly.
Without the backflow of river water, everyone's safety is guaranteed.
When the workers left the mine one by one and stood at the bottom of the moat, bathing in the long-awaited rain, they finally felt the vitality of life.
They work as laborers here, some for more than 20 years, and some for only a few months.
Standing under the sky again, the feeling of welcoming vitality goes straight into my heart.
Many people couldn't help but want to scream, but with the comfort of Ye Mu and others, they suppressed the excitement in their hearts.
Some people even started wiping their tears, and for a moment it was hard to tell whether the tears on their faces were tears or rain. Everyone's mood was extremely complicated.
"Brother Ye!"
At this moment, Man Lei rushed over from not far away. "Finally I see you! Hurry, hurry, get ashore and follow me. General Meng brought two groups of people. One group will guard you as you leave, and the other group has already started a battle with the black-armored guards. Hurry."
"Listen carefully everyone, this is just the first step in the escape. Next you follow Man Lei and head south, the faster the better." As soon as Ye Mu climbed up, he saw Man Lei running towards him.
Subconsciously, he glanced at Mei Xiaoke.
Mei Xiaoke's eyes were flashing with complex colors on Man Lei's body.
"Ye Mu, I will stay and lend a hand to General Meng." Mei Xiaoke's gaze suddenly shifted away from Man Lei and looked towards the west gate where a battle was going on not far away.
"I should be the one to stay. You need to take care of them and let them leave, right?" Ye Mu rejected Mei Xiaoke's decision and deliberately glanced at Man Lei who was greeting the workers to leave.
"But you..." Mei Xiaoke hesitated to speak.
"Let's go."
Ye Mu didn't want to waste too much time, so he looked at Ji Linglong and the others, "Please take good care of Lao Zhang and Kunpeng for me. See you at Qianshi Fortress."
After saying that, he looked around the bottom of the moat again. After making sure that all the workers had left in an orderly manner with Man Lei, he looked towards the northwest.
There, a big battle is going on.
The battle must end as soon as possible!
Otherwise, if they lured the black-armored guards from Dark Stone City here, they alone would be far from able to handle it.
"call out!"
Ye Mu ran madly towards the west city gate where Monta was.
But he suddenly realized that someone was following him closely.
The person who came was Mei Xiaoke!
"Don't try to persuade me. Man Lei and his group are protected by the soldiers of Qianshi Fortress. Their safety is guaranteed." Mei Xiaoke said without further ado, "But I'm worried about you fighting here."
"But you..."
Ye Mu stopped trying to persuade him, and the two of them walked together, arriving near the west gate in an instant.
"That's... the Third Young Master!"
Mei Xiaoke saw that the person who was fighting with Monta was her nephew Ye Ming, who was about to be canonized as the crown prince by the Dark King Ye Yanluo.
"So he is Ye Ming. It seems that his aura is even stronger than General Meng." Ye Mu finally met this person. After realizing that Meng Ta had no chance of winning, he couldn't help but worry.
"Besides him, the eldest son Ye Xuan and the fifth son Ye Qing are also nearby." Mei Xiaoke looked around and pointed the direction to Ye Mu.
"They are hiding in the dark, why don't they help Ye Ming?" Ye Mu couldn't help but be curious.
"They naturally want to take advantage of the opportunity."
"Or rather, they both hope that Ye Ming will be killed by Monta." There was a bloodshot light in Mei Xiaoke's eyes.
Ye Mu was instantly relieved after hearing this.
These people, who are the sons of the Dark King, inevitably kill each other in order to fight for the position of crown prince.
Immediately, he looked at Mei Xiaoke meaningfully.
Suddenly I felt something was wrong!
It is still unknown whether this woman came to help Monta or her nephew Ye Ming!
What should he do if Mei Xiaoke suddenly changes sides?
Ye Mu was very confused. He had already broken through to the fifth level of the Nine-Transformation Immortal Body and could break through to the Void Realm at any time.
As long as he suddenly attacks Mei Xiaoke, this woman will not have a good time.
But, this woman is Man Lei's mother after all!
For a moment, he didn't know how to choose.
