Old man Jiang Hai smiled gently!
"What are you all doing standing here? Did you guys knock me out together?" Brother Chongzi had a questioning look on his face and walked closer to look at the ground!
"Fire... Where did such a big snake come from? I don't have any impression of it at all!"
"Idiot, you almost lost your life because of your greed! If you have any impression, it is the impression of being swallowed by this snake." Taoist Zi Jin mocked mercilessly.
Brother Chongzi frowned, and rarely said anything back. He looked at the wall, then at the snake on the ground. Suddenly he took a breath!
"I remember now. I just used a knife to pry off a piece of gold foil on the wall! Then I felt something behind me. Could it be this monster?"
Brother Chongzi gasped and pointed at the dried snake corpse under everyone's feet, his face turned pale with anxiety.
"Stop talking nonsense. You come and take care of Mr. Fei so that he won't wander around! I will continue to explore the way forward. We can't stay here for long."
Taoist Zijin spoke, and took a deep look at Jiang Hai, until he confirmed that Jiang Hai smiled gently and said that he was fine! He then took a step forward.
Zhang Fan said, "Master Jiang Hai, if possible, can you show me the bone you got from the palace earlier?"
Old Master Jiang Hai took out the three-legged jade rabbit from his pocket: "Take it!"
Zhang Fan took the three-eyed jade rabbit and examined it carefully!
About two or three minutes later, the shouting of Taoist Zi Jin came from far away!
"Everyone, speed up your pace! We are finally entering the core area!"
Hearing the call from Taoist Zi Jin, Jiang Hai's eyes lit up. He asked Nangong Manyun to support him and took big strides towards that direction!
Brother Chongzi carried Mr. Fei on his back with difficulty, cursing! Only Zhang Fan was the most indifferent, his eyes did not leave the three-eyed jade rabbit, but he did not fall behind the crowd.
Gradually, the sound of flowing water came. I quickened my pace and saw Taoist Zi Jin standing with one foot on a stone, illuminating the area under the bridge with a high-intensity flashlight in his hand!
"This is an urn city, but it's bigger than the usual cities. In my opinion... this is definitely where the former ruler of this city lived, equivalent to the city lord's mansion! This iron chain bridge leads forward, and there is a moat underneath, but the water is not clear near the moat, and it's too high! I can't see anything when I shine the flashlight down."
Taoist Zijin explained!
Jiang Hai's eyes were full of clarity: "This is the moat, which means we have finally entered the center of the city!"
In the dark underground ancient city that was like a maze, it was not easy for them to easily find the most central location.
But Brother Chongzi was staring at the water under the bridge, his neck turning back and forth, his brows furrowed tightly, as if he was trying to see something in the darkness.
"What's wrong with you?" Taoist Zi Jin asked.
"Hey guys, we encountered such a big python on that barren wall before! Do you think there are monsters in the water? And the temperature around here is so high, this must be a warm underground river."
Taoist Zi Jin raised his eyebrows, and Nangong Manyun scolded!
"Chongzi, can you please stop talking nonsense! We have finally come this far, are we going to encounter some weird things? Please stop talking nonsense."
The bug chuckled: "I am just being cautious! I am not a jinx, I..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a thud! Everyone subconsciously cast their eyes down to the water under the iron chain bridge. A huge black shadow jumped up from under the water, as if it wanted to bite the people standing on the shore!
Although the height of the jump was amazing, it was unable to touch the iron chain bridge! Finally, it fell back helplessly, splashing endless water.
"You're such a jinx!" Old Master Jiang Hai's face darkened and he cursed subconsciously.
Taoist Zi Jin and Nangong Manyun's faces also darkened, but they did not curse out loud. Instead, there was a hint of worry and fear on their faces.
The atmosphere was heavy and silent; the only sounds they could hear were each other's breathing and the pounding of their hearts.
Mr. Jiang Hai turned his head and looked at Zhang Fan with a gloomy face.
"Mr. Zhang Fan, did you see clearly what that stunning glimpse just now was?"
Zhang Fan's face was cold and he shook his head gently.
"I took a quick glance and couldn't see it more clearly! But... this thing looks very much like a snake man, with thick scales on the outside, but the color is black! It's hard to see clearly."
"Ah... No way! Taoist Zijin, didn't you kill that thing? How could it appear again?"
Nangong Manyun asked with a palpitating heart. The sense of oppression and killing brought by the snake man just now left a deep impression on Nangong Manyun.
"It's really thanks to Chongzi's reminder, otherwise... if we rashly stepped onto this bridge, someone might really die!" Zhang Fan said lightly! Chongzi's face turned red, and his expression was extremely embarrassed.
He was really just being cautious and said it casually!
How can this be considered as predicting the future and being a jinx?
"Maybe it's a strange fish that has grown for many years in this underground river!" Taoist Zijin said, but he didn't dare to predict it! He held the dagger tightly to prevent sudden attacks.
"Unlikely!" Old man Jiang Hai shook his head: "Don't forget, this is on a volcanic layer, the temperature underground is unimaginably high! How can an ordinary fish survive? Besides, the water here is obviously extremely hot! This shouldn't be a fish, so be careful!"
Hearing Jiang Hai's heavy tone, the team members looked at each other. Except for Zhang Fan and Zi Jin Taoist, they were still relatively calm! Nangong Manyun and Brother Chongzi were completely panicked.
Brother Chongzi is afraid that his bad mouth may cause trouble!
Nangong Manyun remembered the thrilling encounters they had with the snakeman before! Now they hadn't walked too far when a bridge blocked their way, and there were unknown things in the water! They didn't even have a chance to breathe.
"We can't stay here. After we cross this river, we may be able to take off our gas masks! Drinking water absorbs a lot of toxic substances, otherwise with your physical constitution! If you stay here for too long, you will be left with a very difficult disease!"
Zhang Fan stepped onto the iron chain bridge first. He was the only one who remained calm! Even Zi Jin Dao didn't dare to start at this time.
"Master is right. Everyone follow closely. I will cover you from behind! As long as we make sure we don't fall into the water, it shouldn't be a problem."
The Purple Gold Taoist came to the end of the team to prevent any unpredictable sneak attacks! ?
