Chapter 423 Tiankeng


"There is another problem, that is, we are not completely sure whether there is really a road behind the fish formation."

Shirley Yang raised a question at this time.

In her opinion, this is a hidden danger that cannot be ignored. If there is no way out behind the fish formation, then they will be in a dilemma.

“Don’t worry about this.” Hu Bayi explained: “The underground river has been continuously transporting water downwards, but the water level has always been in a stable state, indicating that the water pool below There must be an outlet for diversion to control the water capacity in the pool within a fixed range."

While looking at the internal situation of the pool, he had already thought of this problem, and he had already taken the opportunity to study it. Fan, that's why it is said that the exit is after the fish formation.

"Then control the amount of explosives and try to minimize the blasting range to achieve the effect of breaking the surface with a few points." Chen Ziyan said.

Next they will definitely have to take the waterway. The problem before them now is nothing more than how to pry open the door blocking the way.

After searching through the means currently available, the most reliable one is undoubtedly explosives, which is why he proposed using explosives to open a road.

No way, there is really no other way to attack such a dense fish formation.

You can’t just use your body to resist, right?

Those are not dozens or hundreds of big fish, but thousands, or even huge numbers in the tens of thousands. Even the most powerful Wushuang here is not capable of handling such a heavy task.

The topic once again returned to explosives. There was no suspense whether to use them or not. The only question was how to use them.

“That’s all we can do.” Hu Bayi nodded helplessly.

Chen Ziyan has already said this, and there is no need to say more about what it means.

What he has to consider now is not the possible consequences, but how to control the amount of explosives.

If it comes to other things, Hu Bayi may not know who he will let go in the end, but for things like playing with explosives, the only candidates are him and Wang Kaixuan.

So the specific operation will definitely fall on them both.

Not only Hu Bayi knew this, but Wang Kaixuan was also very conscious and immediately asked: "Old Hu, what do you think we should do?"

"I'm afraid that one point is too much. , we need to prepare more." Hu Bayi said with some uncertainty after thinking about the size of the fish formation in the pool.

The goal of dotting the arrancar is fine, but based on the size and size of the fish below, it is probably safer to add dots to form a line.

After everyone studied for a while, they planned to prepare five sealed explosive packages for blasting. They would try one first and increase the intensity if it didn't work.

After all, they really don’t know the specific thickness of the fish array and how the fish will react, especially the latter, so they need to make an attempt.

But trying is trying, everyone still got into the water together. If this method really works, then they will rush out in one go.

This underground river water from Xuefeng is very unique, clear and white. Especially after the searchlight is turned on, the white light keeps emerging, giving people a unique charm.

Chen Ziyan and the others did not all go to the bottom of the water, but stayed above and waited for the opportunity.

All the specific work was left to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. The two of them had good water properties and moved very quickly in the water. They were the best people to take charge of this matter.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan approached the fish with explosives, but because the white-bearded fish kept swimming, the water at the bottom of the pool was a little turbid, so Chen Ziyan and the others could not see the specific movements of the two. , only two blurry figures could be seen.

But what can be seen is that after Wang Kaixuan tried to break through the school of fish to no avail, the two guys started to raise and lower their hands around a big fish.

Just when Chen Ziyan was about to take a closer look, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan suddenly let go of the big fish they were holding in their arms and swam up quickly.

And less than ten seconds after they left the fish school, the fish they caught seemed to have been burst, broken into countless parts.

As a ball of blood mist exploded, there was a violent shaking at the bottom of the water, and then ripples began to vibrate towards the surroundings with the blood mist as the center.

The moment the shock occurred, Chen Ziyan felt that even the crystal walls around the pool seemed to be shaking.

At this moment, Chen Ziyan, who had been staring at Hu Bayi and two people below, saw that Hu Bayi made an 'action' gesture on his own, and immediately understood that their actions had achieved results, and hurriedly He beckoned the people around him to dive down.

Because they were worried that something might happen, they moved very quickly. They endured the blood mist and fish carcass fragments coming towards them, and they immediately joined the two people below, and then together Heading towards the deepest part of the pool.

Although the giant white bearded fish below were less affected, and due to the limited space for movement, there was no large-scale collapse like the outermost, but it is impossible to say that they were not affected at all. The original tight There are some holes in the formation.

This kind of loophole may not be a big deal to these big guys, but to Chen Ziyan and the others, it is a sufficient passage.

Taking advantage of the gap where the shock wave had not completely dissipated, they flexibly passed through the blockade of the fish array and reached the real bottom of the pool.

Just as Hu Bayi guessed, the bottom of the pool is indeed a water outlet, but this water outlet looks like a passage.

But no one cares about this now. They all used their full strength and plunged into the passage that appeared in front of them.

Because a worse situation has arisen, after the sudden fright, the fish behind them not only showed no signs of returning to their original state, but instead moved in the direction of riot.

I thought the school of fish would disperse to a wider pool, but unexpectedly some of them followed.

Chen Ziyan, who took the time to take a look, clearly saw that the white-bearded fish on the outside were frantically attacking the inner fish formation. Some small guys had already broken through and were rushing towards the channel where they were. Come.

You must know that fish are not easy to mess with at this time, and it is uncomfortable to be hit.

They must leave this crystal channel with a diameter of only about ten meters before more fish rush in.

Fortunately, the length of this crystal channel was not too long. Although everyone was somewhat impacted by the fish, they finally left the channel before most of them came.

The moment they left the crystal channel, they had no time to look at the surrounding environment, so they immediately hid behind the crystal wall next to the channel to avoid the torrent of fish.

After taking a breath, Chen Ziyan waited for the fish to pass by while sizing up the situation in front of him. The crystal channel they passed through just now was not straight, but a 'U'-shaped abnormal channel, so the location they were in now was not under the pool, but at another parallel body of water.

The scene in this water area is similar to the previous one, but it is obviously much larger than the man-made water pool. At least where they are now, there is no Way to see the end of the pool.

After seeing that the subsequent fish schools were almost there, Chen Ziyan planned to call others to leave, but he remembered that there were many dangerous things in the water here.

But before he could make the 'retreat' gesture, everyone was stunned in unison.

The water in front of them rippled, and then a giant white bearded fish swam from a distance.

This guy was at least twenty meters in length, and the top of his head was as red as blood. His long snow-white beard was like a thick whip, waving it wantonly in the water, looking very intimidating.

If there is a king of fish in this water area, it is definitely the old white bearded fish in front of me who has lived for who knows how long.

Although we know that white bearded fish rarely attack people, it would be a lie to say that they are not frightened when such a huge creature appears in front of them. Therefore, several people quietly maintained their original postures and did not move at all. He didn't dare to move for fear of attracting the other person's attention.

After all, this guy's body shape is there. To put it bluntly, there is absolutely no pressure to swallow a person in one gulp.

The old white bearded fish seemed to be attracted by the movement at the other end of the channel. After staring at the exit of the channel for a while, it found that there was no other movement, so it shook its head slightly, and then Then he turned around and left, shaking his head.

When this terrifying white-bearded fish was completely hidden in the depths of the lake, Chen Ziyan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Then everyone no longer hesitated and quickly helped each other swim towards the water.

Although their diving equipment can continue to hold on, who knows if there will be big guys of the same size in the water. In this case, for them, it is more reassuring to keep their feet on the ground.

The process of surfacing was smooth, but the moment they emerged from the water, they felt like they were in another world.

Because this place is no longer underground, but back to the ground!

Behind you is a cliff thousands of feet tall, in front of you is an endless lake, surrounded by lush forests, and above your head you can see large expanses of thick clouds and mist.

Such a scene gave all of them an unreal feeling.

How could they come to such a paradise-like place in the blink of an eye when they were still deep underground?

"Go ashore first." Chen Ziyan reminded him quickly when he saw the others were stunned.

Now is not the time to relax. Who knows whether the old white bearded fish will kill him or not, so it is better to go ashore nearby.

After being reminded by him, the others also took action. Fortunately, there was a soil slope not far away from them, and they could just leave the lake from here.

After stepping on the ground again, Wang Kaixuan finally couldn't help it and asked his doubts: "Master Chen, what's going on? Why did we suddenly return to the ground?"

Although he has little knowledge of many aspects of reverse fighting, he can still clearly distinguish what the road he has traveled looks like.

The crystal channel just now was clearly in a very standard 'U' shape, so logically speaking, the exit should still be underground.

Although the depth of this lake is a little deeper than the pool on the other side, it is not so deep that it returns directly to the ground.

"Guardian friend, what do you think?" Chen Ziyan did not answer, but threw the blame to the blue-robed Tibetan.

He had some clues about this in his mind, but he was not sure yet, and with such a ready-made living map and encyclopedia, how could he not make good use of it.

The blue-robed Tibetan didn't care about Chen Ziyan's little thoughts. After looking at the surrounding environment again, he said slowly: "We may not be back on the ground now, but we are still underground. It's just that It’s underground without the ice cover.”

He has never encountered this kind of situation, but it does not mean that he does not know it. The Kangbalo clan has been in Kunlun for thousands of years. Although he cannot say that he has understood every corner, he still knows most of the representative terrain. .

“What do you think is that our current position has not changed, but the top cover has disappeared?” Hu Bayi asked.

He looked around and felt that this was a bit unbelievable.

It can be said that it is inside a crack, but if you look at the surrounding situation, the area here cannot be said to be small.

“This is a sinkhole.” At this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly said.

She knew that this unique terrain seemed to be connected to the outside world, but in fact it was a completely unique small world with its own biological chain.

"Tiankeng? Does that mean that if we want to go back, we still have to go back the same way?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

He has heard of the tiankeng. It is said that if you go in, you cannot come out. It is a very dangerous natural environment.

“That’s not necessarily the case. It is indeed difficult to find a way out of the sinkhole, but that’s for people who enter by mistake. We carry a lot of professional equipment, so it’s easy to leave.” Shirley Yang thought After thinking about it, he said.

She had learned some information about tiankeng, and knew that some people took what they had said about this terrain and exaggerated its horror far beyond reality.

"It's not easy. At least it's not as difficult as returning the same way we came. It might even be higher." Chen Ziyan shook his head and pointed at the cliff behind him and the outline of the snow-capped mountains that could be seen in the distance.

If he guessed correctly, the scale of this tiankeng is far larger than ordinary tiankeng, and the barrier that blocks the connection between the inside and outside is also stronger. Needless to say, there is no need to say more behind him, the towering Wanren It's a cliff that no one would try easily.

As for the other directions, there should be those equally tall snow-capped mountains.

Climbing such a snow-capped mountain is also not an easy task, so Chen Ziyan said that the difficulty is no less than returning the same way.

This is because returning the original way will encounter dangerous situations. If you are just rushing, the cost-effectiveness of returning the original way is far more than the road over the snow-capped mountains.

"Master Chen, I think we have to leave here first." Just when Chen Ziyan was thinking about how difficult it would be to cross the snow-capped mountains, Black Glasses suddenly came over and said.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ziyan asked.

Black Glasses pointed behind them. At this moment, the others discovered that there was a wide and winding road behind the short slope, leading directly to the dense forest not far away.
