Jiang Nan was stunned for a long time, his eyes were empty and his heart was ashen.
Cui'er pushed him several times and called him several times.
He still had no reaction.
Cui'er became anxious and simply punched him several times and screamed sharply into his ears.
Jiang Nan finally came to his senses, and painful tears fell down his cheeks.
He actually cried.
Cui'er was shocked in her heart, and also felt sad and burst into tears.
"Don't be sad, please don't be like this. Let's cheer up. Now, the air here is not limited. We have to find a way to get the holy object quickly and complete the mission."
"I shouldn't have asked Ruolan to go into the water. I shouldn't have done that. It's all my fault. I was too stupid. She actually gave me her last breath."
Jiang Nan blamed himself, regretted and was heartbroken.
He knew very well that in such a situation, Lin Ruolan and others would have no chance of surviving.
"It's not your fault. If she hadn't done that, you would be dead now. After those undercurrents stopped, I still had some oxygen. I have been trained since I was a child to be proficient in water, so I was fine. When I
I found you and several other tribesmen floating unconscious in the water, so I gave you oxygen one by one. You are the only one who still knows how to breathe, but my tribe members have drowned."
"It was your wife who saved you and gave you a chance to live. She is so great. That breath helped you survive."
Cui'er wiped away her tears, took the lamp, and looked around.
It was dark, damp, and bone-chilling cold, and she couldn't help but shiver.
Jiang Nan forced himself to calm down.
Thinking of Lin Ruolan's last moment, her smile towards him seemed to ignite hope and motivation.
"You're right, I shouldn't let her down."
Enduring the grief, Jiang Nan stood up again.
Cui'er was injured, and he helped her move forward.
The place where he injured her before was bleeding.
After bandaging her, the two of them continued on their way.
"According to the ancestral teachings, the patriarch of my previous generation passed on the information to me, saying that this place is probably a maze. It was set up to prevent some evildoers from stealing sacred objects. We have to walk slowly. I have never
Been here."
Cui Er walked cautiously.
Jiang Nan walked with her for a while and then realized that she was back to the same place.
The roads here extend in all directions. I don't know where the way out is or where the sacred objects are.
Finally, the lights in their hands went out because the power supply ran out.
"It's all my fault. I'm not worthy of being the leader of the clan. I can't get out. I'm too stupid." Cui'er was so upset that she slapped herself several times.
"I don't blame you. The light is too dim. This is an underwater world, which will inevitably affect people's judgment. Let's rest for a while and then feel our way forward."
Jiang Nan sat down, still filled with endless sadness.
He couldn't think about it, nor dared to think about it, that Lin Ruolan actually left him like that.
"You love her very much, right?" Cui'er seemed to feel his sadness.
"Of course, without her, I wouldn't be who I am now. Back then, on the battlefield, she was my only courage to survive and my biggest motivation. Many times, in despair, I still persisted just to see Ruolan again.
one side."
Jiang Nan recalled the past with tears in his eyes.
"Your love makes people sigh. Having loved like this in this life is so enviable and there is no regret at all." Cui'er sighed.
"I promised her that when everything was over, I would live a quiet life with her and not interfere in anything else, but I didn't do it. I broke my promise." Jiang Nan couldn't help but feel sad.
"I can't blame you. Do you know how many of our ancestors have sacrificed silently to protect this place for generations? Over the past hundreds of years, many evil people with evil intentions have tried to make plans, but they have been driven away. To tell the truth, since I became the leader of the clan,
At that moment, not only did I feel responsible, but I also felt that I was imprisoned.”
"How I hope that a messenger can come soon and save our people from the fire and water. This is a very selfish idea."
Jiang Nan smiled bitterly and said: "No, everyone yearns for their own, so why should they be selfish? For a vow, you are so desperate and the spirit passed down from generation to generation is worthy of admiration."
Cui'er sighed, "But why don't I want to see the outside world and find the life I long for? I really hope that the messenger will come soon so that I can hand over the sacred objects as soon as possible. Until your
appeared, that’s why I was so excited, even if I was injured, I had to complete the mission quickly.”
"It's just that this time, I'm afraid I will disappoint my ancestors."
Jiang Nan heard her crying softly, and she was trying to pretend to be strong.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Nan stood up again and said, "Don't give up, let's continue searching."
Cui'er could hardly walk anymore. She kept coughing and the wound infection worsened.
The two people supported each other and groped along the wall.
Unconsciously, after walking for a long time, suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness.
Immediately afterwards, the bright light was jumping, more and more, and there was a crisp sound of water.
Cui'er said excitedly: "It's firefish. We are on the right track. We are finally on the right track. The previous generation of patriarchs told me that as long as you see firefish, you have hope. If you follow them, they are for the Holy Spirit."
Born of things, hurry up."
Jiang Nan nodded, speeded up, and soon came to a water stream.
Here, there are many finger-sized fish, their bellies are glowing, and they come out of the water from time to time, jumping and swimming happily, dotted with stars, very beautiful.
I haven't seen light for a long time, but the light at this time gives me enough hope.
The two of them followed the group of fish and shuttled through the intricate holes.
"One of the characteristics of these little guys is that they will wander around sacred objects. The previous patriarch said that they were domesticated by our ancestors. I thought it was magical before, but now I have seen it with my own eyes. It is really like this.
Woolen cloth."
Cui'er was overjoyed and quickened her pace.
Finally, a platform appeared in front, and it was actually very bright.
All around, some beads shimmered like lights.
"These are thousand-year-old pearls. It is said that they can shine for a thousand years and remain immortal. Now it seems that they are true. We finally found them. That should be where the sacred objects are."
Cui'er's eyes filled with excitement, and she pointed forward.
There is an ancient crystal coffin on the platform, and inside, there is a box.
"This should be the coffin of our ancestors, and the things in the box are the sacred objects that we have protected for generations. Come and help us quickly. We'll take it and leave as soon as possible."
Cui'er went over and pushed the crystal coffin.
Jiang Nan suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly shouted, "Don't move around. Let's observe first."
However, it was too late.
The crystal coffin suddenly trembled several times.
A huge black hole appeared below.
Cui'er had no time to dodge, and fell directly along with the crystal coffin.
