I quickly used my last bit of strength to escape from the python, because the road in front of me was blocked by an iron prison door. I had to hold my breath and swim towards the water. The iron door simply did not extend to the end. I think it was because
I feel like a Cangwu four-legged python is imprisoning me, and whether or not the cell door is there is just a decoration.
With this breath of oxygen, I struggled to swim out from the bottom of the water, but I didn't dare to come up yet, because when Gu He brought me here before, the cell door seemed to have lowered automatically, indicating that there was someone sensing nearby.
The device may also have equipment to prevent jailbreak. If I go ashore too early, I may be caught.
I held my breath as much as possible and swam toward the endless end. Where would this river lead to and where would it come from? Is this so-called sacrificial domain really underground or in front of it?
Where is the giant Gu worm that almost swallowed me?
I felt more and more dizzy, my eyesight turned black, and my chest felt tight. I knew that I had reached the limit of holding my breath, and if I continued, I would fall into a coma due to lack of oxygen. Although I didn't know if the distance was enough, I still had to float up.
Maybe it was because I hadn't eaten for a long time, and because I was exposed to numerous poisons every day and was in a state of hypoxia, I didn't even have much strength left to swing my arms, so I had to push my feet and hit the bottom of the water to get up. Suddenly, I just felt
The hand that stretched out of the water was firmly held by someone, and then with a strong pull, the whole person jumped out of the water.
Who is it? As I felt my body relaxed, I couldn't help but become alert. When I looked up, I saw that it was the person who wanted to take me away last time.
"You actually escaped from prison on your own? How did you escape from the Cangwu four-legged python?" He glanced at me in surprise, and after noticing the bruises on my body, which were blue and purple, he said thoughtfully,
"I see, you gathered all the poison you had suffered before, and then exploded it all at once, letting the four-legged python suck it up. I don't see that you are quite perseverant, but it's a pity that you took the wrong path."
"What do you mean you went the wrong way?" I asked after taking a deep breath of fresh air.
"After you get rid of the four-legged python, if you walk from the side or the opposite side and find other branches of this underground water vein, you may be able to swim to a deserted place, but you should come out from the front of the cell door. There is only one straight path here.
The underground river, once you go out, you will meet people outside, and the only way is to be recaptured."
There seemed to be some gloating in his tone, but now I couldn't care so much. I could only look at the water, thinking that I didn't want to continue swimming back and found another way out.
"Forget it, since you're out, come with me. I was planning to ask you again today." As he said this, he took out a raincoat and a bamboo hat and said to me: "Put it on.
, at least you can hide your face, and if anyone really asks about it when you go out, I will tell you that you are my follower."
I looked at him doubtfully, not knowing whether the other party was trustworthy or whether I should accept the coir raincoat and bamboo hat. According to my current physical condition, as an elder in the church, it should be effortless for him to capture me. It seemed that
Don't bother with it.
Seeing the hesitation in my eyes, he didn't explain anything. He just hung the bamboo hat on my head, put a raincoat on me, and said, "I'll take you to the ground later. After you find your fat Taoist friend,
Just leave here and don't come back again. By the way, the young master also said that she has a friend named Taozi, who has a very yin constitution and is prone to evil spirits. I ask you to take more care of her from now on."
Hearing him mention Fatty and Taozi, I felt a little relieved. If Wanlin told him these things, it meant that he was at least someone she could talk to, and maybe she really wouldn't hurt me.
The two of us slowly walked out of the dark depths of the water, and around and around we came to the entrance of the alley where we came in. After walking a few steps, he asked me to close my eyes and silently recite the "Gu God Purana" when I came in.
, don’t stop walking at your feet.
"Don't open your eyes when you hear any sound until I say it's okay." He added.
He himself also closed his eyes and muttered words. After I confirmed that he had indeed closed his eyes, I started chanting along with him.
This time was different from before. I probably only recited the entire verse more than once before I felt an abnormal fluctuation in my body, and then there was a loud and majestic insect buzzing around me, which kept echoing in my ears, and it seemed
Getting closer to me.
I felt that my body was a little weightless, and even my steps were unsteady. The ground under my feet disappeared without knowing when, and my whole body seemed to be floating in the air.
"Okay, open your eyes." He said, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that I had arrived in a primeval forest.
"Where is this..." I couldn't help but blurt out, "Where is the cave? Why did you come directly outside?"
"Don't ask any more questions. This is not something you can know." He said coldly, "Let's go quickly. I'll take you to a nearby village."
I didn't think much and ran out with him. However, just as he was taking me out of the forest, he suddenly turned his head and gave me a heavy nod on the top of my head.
"Hey, what are you doing! What are you..." Just as I was about to question, I felt dizzy all over my body, and then the pain was like a knife, spreading from my forehead downwards, gradually covering my whole body, and every inch of flesh and blood on my body felt like...
It was like being cut into pieces alive with a knife, and I was rolling on the ground in pain.
In the past few days, I have almost become accustomed to poison in my body, but the poison he poisoned can still make me feel such intense pain. It can be said that it is simply shocking.
Seeing me in agony, he seemed to have thought of something. His eyes were a little lonely, but his tone was extremely harsh: "I put a golden silkworm Gu on you. You should have heard of this Gu, right?
It is a sacred object of our religion. Nowadays, there are no pure-bred golden silkworms. Although the one in you is only a hybrid species from later generations, it is definitely not something that most people can tolerate. You can either control it, or it will bite you back."
Although I wanted to ask him why he did such a thing, I didn't have the energy to answer him. I just kept rolling around in place, trying to relieve the pain that was so painful that I couldn't help but tear my chest apart.
He didn't take the opportunity to kill me, but he didn't leave either. He just stood there quietly, as if observing my reaction. He didn't know how long it took, but he seemed to have lost his patience, and then he said: "It seems that you
