Fina reminded in a low voice: "There is very likely a group of orangutans in this area,"
Tang Lie nodded, and Pan took out a short knife from his waist and handed it to Fina: "Use it for self-defense."
"What about me," Tang Lie said with wide eyes.
Paine swung his machete to cut off a branch as thick as his wrist, sharpened the front end, and handed it to Tang Lie's hand: "Just use it,"
Tang Lie smiled bitterly and nodded. It seems that the status of men and women is not equal in any society.
Fina made a gesture to be careful about her surroundings, and the three of them stopped at the same time. Several black figures were running back and forth among the branches of the big tree. The orangutans finally moved out, and they roared from time to time, followed by a roar. With a violent roar, raindrops of stones and various wild fruits fell on the three of them from the big tree.
Paine rushed to the front, wielding his machete to block the wind and rain around him. All the rocks and wild fruits were blocked by him.
Tang Lie tried to control the energy to form an invisible air shield on the surface of his body. His whole body glowed with light blue light, and the wooden spear in his hand also glowed with a strange brilliance.
Pan En was amazed, knowing that the gap between his own strength and Tang Lie was too big.
The spear in Tang Lie's hand was swung defensively with Mozi's swordsmanship. The speed of the move was not urgent and slow, but it blocked all the stones that were thrown at him and Fina like raindrops. Under Tang Lie's protection, Fina There was almost no need to move, and he chuckled softly: "It seems that you have mastered the essence of Mozi's swordsmanship,"
Tang Lie laughed loudly and said, "We've just started." He casually chopped off a white object that was thrown at him, but it was a gnawed human head. He was furious in his heart. These orangutans are so bloodthirsty and easy to kill. It's really too much. cruel.
The orangutans also seemed to realize that long-distance attacks with rocks could not deal with Tang Lie and the others. With a strange roar, more than a dozen black-haired giant apes jumped from the top of the tree and attacked the three of them.
Tang Lie hated the cruelty and cruelty of these orangutans. They were merciless when they attacked. His spear pierced a chimpanzee that rushed towards him first like a thunderbolt in the sky. When attacking, he gave up the defensive of Mozi's swordsmanship and used the magic knife to celebrate. Zhen taught him the seven techniques of slaying demons, and the energy-filled spears continuously attacked the chimpanzee. Although the chimpanzee was strong, it was at a loss when faced with such a sophisticated attack from Tang Lie.
In one move, the chimpanzee's eyes were stabbed by Tang Lie, and he wailed and fled into the bushes. Tang Lie didn't stop with one move, but he struck again, and the spear tip pierced the chest of the chimp behind him.
The swords in Paine and Fina's hands also failed to make any moves. In the blink of an eye, the three of them had killed seven chimpanzees. The remaining orangutans realized that the situation was not good and fled into the dense forest one by one howling.
The three of them did not give chase and continued to move forward along the route indicated on the map. They walked for about half an hour and finally walked out of the dense forest.
Hearing the deafening sound of water flowing in his ears, he looked up and saw a huge valley in front of him. On the other side of the valley, there was a wide waterfall rushing down from a high place.
Looking down, the entire valley is immersed in misty water vapor. The sunlight shines on the water mist, creating a beautiful seven-color rainbow.
Fina sincerely praised: "It's so beautiful."
Paine whispered: "According to the map, the Golden Cave is under this waterfall,"
Tang Lie carefully observed the environment of the valley. The entire valley was straight up and down, with no roads to pass through. It was like a huge deep well. How did the armored Canglong Jin Balu hide the golden warship in such a dangerous place?
Pan followed the diagram and led Tang Lie and Fina along the edge of the valley towards the waterfall.
As they got closer and closer to the waterfall, the mist of water rushed towards them like drizzle. Tang Lie raised his sleeves from time to time to wipe the water droplets from his face and said loudly: "Pan, it doesn't look like there is a path ahead..." His voice was interrupted by the sound of the waterfall.
Paine turned around and said cheerfully: "Yes, this is it," he pointed to the rushing water ahead and strode over without hesitation.
Tang Lie and Fina looked at each other, wondering if Pan En was going to jump from here.
Paine immediately confirmed their idea. He put the machete behind his back and jumped into the misty valley with a standard high diving action: "Come quickly..."
Tang Lie stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the bottomless valley. Logically speaking, there should be a pool formed by the waterfall. However, it is difficult to say the depth of the pool. If you jump from such a height, will the buoyancy of the pool be affected? It is not enough to carry its own huge impact.
"Come on..." It took a long time before I heard Pan's ethereal voice coming from below.
Tang Lie laughed, and the bastard arrived at the pool safely.
He gently patted the back of Fina's hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just hold your breath. With me by your side, no accidents will happen."
Fina nodded trustingly, and jumped down the cliff at the same time as Tang Lie.
The body fell rapidly in the mist, and the cold rain and mist kept rushing towards her face. Fina, who was not good at water, finally couldn't help but let out a scream. Although the falling time was not long, it seemed to her that a long century had passed. .
The bodies of the two fell into the water almost at the same time. The huge impact caused them to sink into the depths of the pool, and then began to slowly rise. From the beginning to the end, Tang Lie's mind remained extremely clear. At the moment of entering the water, Xiao The white dragon swam out of the skin and came to Fina's side, forming a waterless space around her head, like a natural protective shield.
Tang Lie nodded appreciatively to Xiao Bailong, holding Fina's delicate hand and quickly surfaced from the water.
Taking a deep breath of the cold, moist air, Tang Lie saw a dark figure in the hazy water vapor. Paine was lying on the shore, breathing heavily: "Hey, I think the treasure should be under the pool."
Tang Lie sneezed twice in a row, rubbed his nose and pushed Fina to the shore first, and then he got scared and said, "Damn it, the water temperature is so low, even if we find the treasure, we won't be able to transport it out."
Pan En said: "Let's take it one step at a time. I'm worried that Abar's gang will also find this place. We must find the specific location of the Golden Cave before them."
Fina whispered: "It seems that the Golden Cave is not far from us,"
Paine raised the sheepskin map in his hand: "The entrance should be three hundred feet underwater..."
Tang Lie's eyes widened. Such a water depth was almost equivalent to a distance of one thousand meters. As far as he knew, humans could only dive into two to three hundred meters without borrowing diving equipment. Such deep water requires tremendous pressure. However, this should not be a difficulty for Tang Lie. After all, he and Fina both have water-avoiding beads, and with the help of Xiao Bailong, it should not be difficult to sneak into the predetermined location.
Pan En was also prepared. He took out several water-proof beads from the handle of the machete and gave two of them to Tang Lie and Fina: "We must succeed this time."
Fina quickly learned the essentials of diving under Tang Lie's guidance. The three of them maintained a human triangle formation, Paine led the way at the front, and Tang Lie and Fina swam side by side behind him.
Xiao Bailong was extremely wary of outsiders, hiding in the leather bag around Tang Lie's waist and never showing up again.
There were endless treasures in the hilt of Paine's knife, and he took out a luminous pearl the size of a dragon's eye and used it to illuminate the deep water. The brilliance of the luminous pearl illuminated the entire underwater scene as if it were daytime.
As the dive deepened, small fish with phosphorescent bodies of various colors passed by them in groups, and the colorful colors formed scenes of stunningly beautiful scenery.
Tang Lie's whole body naturally filled with a blue halo, and the energy shield completely separated his body from the cold pool water. He stretched out his arms to embrace Fina in his arms, using his own energy to warm Fina 's delicate body.
Fina quietly nestled in Tang Lie's arms. At this moment, an inexplicable warmth filled her heart.
All of Pan's attention was focused on finding the golden cave, and he did not pay attention to the romantic charm of the two people behind him. Although his martial arts was far inferior to Tang Lie, his water quality was a top master.
The fish suddenly lost their tranquility and accelerated to swim upwards. Paine looked down warily, only to see two huge black figures quietly approaching them. An inexplicable sense of crisis filled Paine's heart, and he quickly drew out the machete behind him. , beware of the attack of this huge mysterious creature.
Tang Lie also noticed the changes under the water. These two huge creatures were both about seven meters in length. As they continued to approach, Tang Lie recognized that they were two alligators, and the nerves around his body suddenly became tense. If he encounters these ferocious creatures on land, Tang Lie is confident enough to defeat them, but this is under deep water.
The alligator's blood-red eyes stared at the three uninvited guests with ferocity. Their huge bodies appeared extremely flexible under the deep water. Almost in an instant, the two alligators had swam less than three meters away from them. But he suddenly stopped there, and the fierce light in his little eyes suddenly faded.
Paine made a still gesture to remind Tang Lie and Fina not to act rashly to avoid being attacked by the alligator.
Two alligators were cruising back and forth around the three of them, but they never attacked.
Even under deep water, Paine could feel cold sweat constantly breaking out on his skin.
Fina's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and she saw four more alligators swimming slowly upward under the water. Tang Lie stared hard at Paine, and this stupid guy actually led them into a real crocodile pool.
Although more and more alligators gathered together, none of them took the initiative to attack.
The little white dragon's head poked out of its skin and curiously looked at the underwater environment. It seemed not to feel the danger and stuck out its bright red tongue playfully.
The alligator facing the little white dragon suddenly lowered its head and swam to the side silently.
Tang Lie thought. The reason why these ferocious alligators didn't attack was because of the little white dragon. He moved his arm boldly, but the alligator didn't react at all. Tang Lie took Fina's delicate hand. He continued to dive underwater, and wherever he went, alligators gave way.
At the critical moment of life and death, Paine was very flexible and followed closely behind Tang Lie, relying on Tang Lie's protection to successfully pass through the crocodile group.
At this time, the alligator seemed to notice something, and suddenly accelerated its swim upwards.
They finally succeeded in diving to about 300 feet underwater. Paine searched carefully around the four walls of the pool. Pushing aside the vine-like water plants, he could see various reliefs carved on the four walls of the pool, because Over time and underwater erosion, the outlines of the reliefs are mostly blurred.
Pan En waved desperately to Tang Lie and the others from a distance. When he swam over, he saw that Pan En's hands were climbing on a horizontal stone pillar. There were more than ten stone pillars of the same size around him.
Pan En signaled Tang Lie and Fina to help him push the stone pillar clockwise. The three of them used all their strength, and the stone pillar finally began to move slowly.
More than a dozen stone pillars around him slowly fell down. The wall of the pool not far away began to collapse, and a dark hole appeared behind. The sudden space allowed the water to finally find a place to vent, and the strong pressure formed a momentum. There was a huge undercurrent, and before Tang Lie and the others could fully react, they were swept into the black hole by the current.
Along with the roaring water, their bodies entered a dark space, and the collapsed hole was quickly blocked by huge rocks floating from the other side.
The pressure of the water dropped instantly, and the three people screamed loudly and fell from the air into a warm pool.
The luminous pearl in Paine's hand immediately came into play, illuminating the surrounding environment with bright light. The water pool was as green as a gem, and the sudden intrusion of three uninvited guests caused splashes of water everywhere.
"Hot spring," Tang Lie cheered loudly. Only then did he realize that this was an independent space.
The three of them helped each other climb to the shore and stared at the hole above where trickling water was still slowly seeping out. The hole had been refilled with boulders, and it wouldn't take long for aquatic plants and sand to completely seal the gap.
Pan En said excitedly: "This...is the Golden Cave..."
Tang Lie stroked Fina's golden hair. Looking around, he didn't see any golden hair. Pan En had already strode forward: "One Line of Sky..."
The Skyline is a narrow corridor, only wide enough for one person to pass through. Paine's treasure map specifically marked this point. Finding the Skyline is equivalent to finding the entrance to the Golden Cave.
With full curiosity, Tang Lie and Fina followed Pan En. Fina carefully reminded Pan En: "Be careful, there may be an ambush ahead."
Paine nodded gratefully, and suddenly stepped on something hard under his feet, which made a clanging sound. He was so frightened that he stood there like a dumbfounded chicken, for fear of triggering the hidden mechanism of the Golden Cave.
