Ding Ze really didn't want to bother with the humanoid statue. The problem was that Wu Xie's proposal was not unreasonable... He didn't know how to refuse it reasonably.
So, with a headache, he had to look at Lao Itch, hoping that Lao Itch would speak first and say something to object...
'As long as Lao Itch objects first and I agree with you and say a few words, this matter should be over.'
Ding Zeru was thinking about it, and he felt that there was still a lot of hope.
'After all, Lao Itch is anxious to get to the Bronze Sacred Tree, and knowing how dangerous this underground river is, he shouldn't be willing to bother with the humanoid statue.'
Facts have proved that he was right.
This is not the case.
About two seconds later.
Lao Itch moved his mouth, then made a sound, and objected, "Old Wu, I think---it's better not to bother.
"The flow of this underground river is so fast. It will be very difficult for us to go upstream."
"Besides, if we go against the current, if we are walking and there is a hot water fountain spraying out behind us, we may not be able to escape at all."
Lao Itchy said this, and then moved the flashlight to shine in the middle of the river directly in front of the three of them, "This is probably the location where the superheated hot fountain erupted last time."
"I was rather lucky last time. I just happened to come out of the underground river to where we are standing, and I escaped."
Words spread.
Wu Xie was silent, his expression looked like he was thinking.
Ding Ze saw this and breathed a sigh of relief silently. He immediately followed the plan and agreed, "Wu Xie, forget it. It's really not worth taking such a big risk for a statue."
Without further ado, Ding Ze finished speaking, took a sip from the cigarette, turned to look to the right, that is, over the waterfall. Then, because of what Lao Itchy said just now, his thoughts couldn't stop moving...
At this moment, when he was reading the original work and reading this paragraph, a thought that he had had...or, in other words, suspicion...involuntarily emerged in his mind.
'Lao Itchy Three years ago, could a person, relying on an iron chain, really withstand the impact of the water flow and climb up from the bottom of the waterfall?'
'Suppose Lao Itchy is really that awesome and can really do this kind of thing. After he climbed up, he was really lucky enough to escape an erupting hot fountain as he just said?'
'The hot fountain must have erupted before, otherwise I wouldn't know the existence of the hot fountain!'
'So, the key is, when Lao Itchy escaped from here three years ago, when did the hot fountain erupt...'
'Is it possible... At that time, when the hot fountain erupted, Lao Itchy crawled into this underground river, and maybe reached near where we are now, but he didn't have time to go ashore...'
'Is it possible... that the body stuck by the chain at the waterfall is actually Lao Itch No. 2?'
'Lao Itch No. 2, before being killed by the hot fountain, materialized Lao Itch No. 3, which left the underground river and is standing where we are now?'
'Is it possible that the Lao Itch next to me is already the third generation of Lao Itch... Even assuming that Lao Itch was not so awesome at the time and did not really succeed in climbing up from the bottom of the waterfall, but materialized
I met an old itch that appeared on the waterfall... then the old itch next to me at the moment must be the fourth generation old itch...'
"..."
--------------------------
Ding Ze imagined for a while, and before he knew it, he had a headache.
'What the hell, I don't want to think about it anymore!'
'If you think about it any more, your head will explode!'
After reciting a few words helplessly in silence, Ding Ze took another deep drag on the cigarette.
At this time, Wu Xie, who had hesitated for a while, made a decision and said, "Since you all don't agree with going over to take a look, forget it, let's go."
Wu Xie said this, and then asked Lao Itch, "Lao Itch, where is the iron chain you mentioned?"
"It's in the water, I--I'll fish it out for you to see," Lao Chi heard it and without delay, he responded, started to move, and was ready to go into the water.
See the situation.
'If there is no change in this part of the plot, the hot fountain should be erupting at almost any time...'
With a thought in his mind, Ding Ze decisively stretched out his hand to hold Old Itch, "Don't get into the water yet!"
Lao Itch was pulled, with a puzzled look on his face, "????What's wrong?"
Ding Ze heard this and was about to say that the smell of sulfur here was too strong and maybe the hot fountain would erupt soon. It would be best to wait until the hot fountain finished spraying before entering the water...
Unexpectedly.
The words come to your lips.
Suddenly, a better, almost perfect explanation suddenly appeared in my mind.
"Through my contact with Wu Xie in the past period of time."
"I discovered a very interesting phenomenon, that is, wherever Comrade Wu Xie appears, bad things will happen soon."
"So, I estimate that a hot fountain will erupt from this underground river at any time... I suggest you not to go down hastily now, lest you lose your life in vain."
Ding Ze said seriously.
Hear the words.
Of course.
In an instant, both Lao Itch and Wu Xie were dumbfounded.
Old Itch: “??????”
Wu Xie: “((⊙﹏⊙))o!!!!”
------------------
I was dumbfounded for a few seconds.
Lao Itch was the first to speak out, with a look of disbelief on his face. He glanced at Wu Xie first, and then at Ding Ze, "Brother Ding, are you kidding?"
Ding Ze shook his head, his expression still serious, "No. If you don't believe it, we'll find out after we wait here for a while."
Lao Itch hesitated for a moment, "Okay!"
At this time.
Wu Xie, who had a clear look of anger in his eyes, spoke, his tone full of displeasure, "Brother Ding, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Why do you mean that wherever I appear, bad things will happen?"
"Am I the disaster star?"
'No, you are not the disaster star, you are just the protagonist,' Ding Ze heard, grinned, muttered silently, and then said to Wu Xie, "I said it more tactfully... But, if you understand it so well, it doesn't matter.
question."
When the words came into his ears, the veins on Wu Xie's forehead jumped hard, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak: "(??へ??╬)!!!!"
Ding Ze saw it and said, "Wu Xie, don't be upset in a hurry. I just said a phenomenon I summarized. As for whether this is the case... we'll see."
"Okay, just wait!" Wu Xie gritted his teeth, "Wait five minutes! I still don't believe in this evil! How the hell could I be some kind of disaster..."
Wu Xie couldn't finish what he said...
Suddenly! Bang!!
Approximately in the middle of the underground river directly in front of the three of them, there was a sudden explosion.
In an instant, a huge wave and the water column rising into the sky in the middle of the wave appeared in the three people's field of vision...
