Thinking he was seeing things, the Indian man rubbed his eyes.
Xiao Hao handed Ah San a grilled fish with a smile. It smelled quite good at first, but suddenly it didn't taste good anymore.
After finishing the grilled fish, Xiao Hao gestured to A-San that he wanted to go home.
He went straight home after leaving. There are still many fun places he didn't take Xiao Hao to.
Xiao Hao had something on his mind and didn't have time to pay attention to A-San, so he rushed home as quickly as possible.
Zuo Ling was tending to the flowers and plants. After several months of hard work, she had transformed the area in front of and behind the wooden house into a garden.
The flowers are in full bloom, a truly beautiful sight.
Pei Nansheng was doing carpentry work. His younger sister wanted a swing set, and his younger brother wanted a slingshot. Ah San couldn't speak, but if he could, he probably would want what his younger brother had.
Seeing Xiao Hao return, he asked in surprise:
"Hey, why are you back so early today? Did you have a fight with Ah San?"
Xiao Hao shook his head: "Brother, sister, has an outsider broken in?"
Xiao Hao recounted how a person emerged from the deep pool.
Is the path below the deep pool leading to the outside world? And what's on the other side?
Regardless, this is a clue, and we must go and investigate.
After quickly tidying up, I followed Ah San towards the deep pool.
Ah San was very silent, looking preoccupied the whole way.
The deep pool is hidden in a secluded location; it would be difficult to find without the Indian guide leading the way.
When they were about to go down into the water after changing into their diving suits, Ah San grabbed Zuo Ling, shook his head vigorously, mumbled something, and his eyes turned red.
Sensing Ah San's reluctance to leave, Zuo Ling smiled and patted him, "You're not leaving? Let me go down and take a look."
Even with force applied under his fingers, the Indian man wouldn't let go.
Zuo Ling pointed to Xiao Hao and Xueye Waterfall, "They're all here, sister won't leave."
Although Xiao Hao's relationship with Ah San has improved a lot, she still can't stand how Ah San clings to her sister.
She pulled him away, saying, "I won't go, I won't go, we're all here, I won't leave."
The Indian man made a guttural sound, as if saying, "Don't lie to me, you must come back."
"Be good, play with Xiao Hao, your sister will be back soon."
The water in the pool was very cold, and it was very dark underwater, making a ray of light all the more noticeable.
With a casual scoop, a delicate, specially made underwater flashlight fell into Zuo Ling's hands.
Pei Nansheng glanced at it, ignored it, and continued forward.
Five corpses floated on the water, their pale, bluish faces looking terrifying.
Pei Nansheng examined the corpses for a while, until he saw one person. His eyes flickered, and he gestured to Zuo Ling, indicating that they should come back and talk.
The terrain beneath the underground river is complex, with some narrow sections and numerous forks in the path. We swam for over two hours without finding a way out.
Fearing that Xiao Hao and A San might be getting impatient, the two decided to go back first and come down again tomorrow.
When they came ashore, they brought the five bodies with them.
Ah San was getting impatient; if Xiao Hao hadn't been holding him back, he would have gone down to find Zuo Ling.
As the bodies were brought ashore, the Indian man was stunned. How could so many people be hiding underwater?
Xiao Hao sneered, "Hmph, hiding your true colors, you're definitely not a good person. I'll still kill you."
If the people come ashore openly and honestly, Xiao Hao might let them go. But if they're acting suspiciously, they're obviously not good people, so it's better to just kill them.
Pei Nansheng pointed to one of the corpses and said:
"He is a direct descendant of the Zhao family and possesses wind-related abilities."
Xiao Hao was old enough to remember things when he was with the Ding family that the Zhao family was his father's wife's family.
Whenever Zhao Min sees Xiao Hao, she has a mean expression and doesn't like her father being close to him.
Xiao Hao disliked Zhao Min very much, and accidentally killed a member of the Zhao family, which was a way of venting his anger.
Are they... coming for us?
Zuo Ling thought so, and Pei Nansheng thought so too; the two siblings both felt that the Zhao family's visit was related to them.
The Ding and Jin families have suffered heavy losses at their hands, so the reclusive elder must be getting desperate. I don't know what benefits he offered, but he managed to persuade the Zhao family.
But how did the Zhao family know they were here?
