Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Chapter 587 Entering the Water

Cui Bianxu thought for a moment and decided to go down and take a look himself.

Among these people, he is the best at swimming, so two incense sticks of time is no problem.

"Absolutely not!"

Jian Ming immediately began to take off his clothes, showing off himself while also not forgetting to put down his colleague: "Jiulang, relax, this time it's my subordinate's turn, he's better at swimming than him!"

Cui Bianxu twitched his lips. It was a good thing that his subordinates were ambitious, so let him be.

However, after the others went down, he himself was not idle. He directed people to find out the oil paper separately and wrap up all the necessary things. As long as there was a hole underneath, they would definitely go down and take a look.

If you encounter an accident and have nothing on you, it is basically tantamount to seeking death.

Li Sheng warmed himself by the fire and dried his eye-catching crotch-lock pants - he had worn them all along the way and only had two pairs left, so he had to be frugal.

Suddenly, a guard ran in panicking: "Jiulang, there are wild animals coming towards us!"

He just went outside to pee, but he didn't expect to hear a very powerful roar halfway through his pee, which sounded like a wild beast quickly moving through the mountains and forests.

Thinking of his son still in the cave with the giant snake, he immediately felt unwell. He ran in with his pants in his hands, and kicked the giant snake's corpse as he passed by: "Could it be that the snake's mistress came to avenge it?"

this...

It seems really possible!

The noise outside was getting closer and closer, but judging from its momentum, the thing coming was probably more ferocious than the giant snake. In just a moment, Cui Bianxu made a quick decision: "Get in the water!"

No matter what kind of ferocious beast outside is, running out into the mountains and forests now is tantamount to committing suicide. The only way to survive is to go into the water.

Everyone started moving and gathered at the edge of the pool as quickly as possible. Everyone was tying a long rope around their waist so that they had to be connected together.

"The situation underwater is not clear yet. Be sure to be cautious after going down and do not act alone." Cui Bianxu spoke quickly. He had just fought with the giant snake and his body was still in pain. All the poison in his body had been used up. If a more ferocious one came, he would probably have to die here.

He has to stay alive and go back to have a litter of children with his own young slave, he can't die!

"Li Sheng, you take the lead."

"Yes!"

Li Sheng, who had already been in the water once, jumped in directly without hesitation. Then the guards jumped into the water one by one. Cui Bianxu was in the middle. The moment he jumped into the water, he saw a head even bigger than the giant snake appear at the entrance of the cave at an incredible speed.

"Hurry!" he shouted, and then pulled the long rope hard and dived down.

The remaining four people also jumped into the water one after another.

However, this giant snake was not only larger than the previous one, but also faster. It reached the edge of the pool in just three breaths, and smashed its huge head towards the guard who had just entered the water at the end.

The guard's back was instantly bent inward and he was shaken out of the water in a weird posture, causing huge splashes in the small pool.

Because of the long ropes tied around their bodies, those who had already started diving were pulled up a bit.

The people in the water only felt a huge force coming from all directions. The giant snake kept hitting the water with its head, and the waves it stirred up made everyone stagger in the water.

Cui Bianxu immediately gestured for them to cut the long rope, but unfortunately the water was too turbid at this time and everyone could hardly see themselves clearly.

The giant snake outside went into a frenzy because of the corpse of its companion.

Cui Bianxu was extremely anxious. He tried hard to steady himself and groped for the long rope, trying to cut it as quickly as possible.

At this moment, the guard whose face was covered in blood suddenly moved. He seemed to want to straighten his body, but it was obvious that he could not do it. He had to use his last bit of strength to sink himself into the water.

He could no longer hold his breath. Countless water rushed into his nasal cavity, and his consciousness gradually became blurred. The turbid water suddenly became blood-red, which made everyone feel cold in their hearts.

The guard closest to him was the first to notice his situation and tried his best to pull the rope to bring him to his side. Unfortunately, the giant snake was too ferocious and kept hitting the pool of water, which was a bit cramped for it, leaving them no peace.

At this moment, the dying guard seemed to have a last hurrah. He pulled out his dagger and slashed the long rope with force. At the same time, he opened his mouth and said something to Cui Bianxu with all his strength.

Unfortunately, this was in the water, and when he opened his mouth, there was no sound, only large clumps of blood making the surroundings even more turbid.

Cui Bianxu's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he said: Let's go!

go.

They now have only one way to go.

Li Sheng knew that he dared not delay at all, and walked desperately towards the black hole he had seen before, praying in his heart that there was a way to survive there.

These guards can die, but Jiulang must not die here with them!

Grief and indignation filled everyone's chest. They gritted their teeth, held their breath, stared with their eyes wide open, and tried their best to maintain order and follow Li Sheng. One person had already died, and they didn't want or could not let another person die.

The giant snake above was not idle either. The mouth of the pool was small, and the lower part was slightly larger. Under its constant impact, the mouth of the pool was really enlarged. It let out a long roar and plunged into the water with ferocity. The splashing water made the area within ten meters around it wet.

However, the giant snake was huge, and even if it managed to enter the water, it was just stuck with the stone wall below. Every time the giant snake moved forward, it had to rely on its strong body to smash the stone wall, and its speed slowed down. Everyone took the opportunity to distance themselves from it.

Unfortunately, due to this drastic change, everyone's breath-holding time has become shorter due to tense nerves, and some people are beginning to be unable to hold on.

Cui Bianxu and the others could only drag them down by force, which gave the giant snake a chance to catch up.

Just as Li Sheng was trying hard to find the black hole in the turbid water, a hand suddenly stretched out from the stone wall and pulled him over.

It’s Jian Ming!

At the upper end of the river, separated by two hills, the whistle that echoed through the forest almost immediately woke up the sleeping guards.

They all launched into action at the same time, rushed out of the cave and listened carefully in Jiang Shangxian's confused eyes, and only walked in with joy on their faces after the whistle ended.

Jiubai's face showed both joy and worry: "Madam, Jiulang has been found."

No matter how dumb Jiang Shangxian was, he realized: "What does that whistle mean?"

She knew that her own little Cui was a middle school boy who always liked to do these things. Judging from their reactions, the whistle must have been made by Cui Bianxu and the others.

The question is, it was so late, and they suddenly blew the whistle three times so quickly. What happened to them?
