Chapter 22 Strange Things Fall into the Quagmire and Strange Roads into the Mausoleum


After Humpty Dumpty cut the rope, He Rong grabbed Jinhua without hesitation and took the remaining four people to swim deep behind the suppression stone.

He couldn't bear to say goodbye to Humpty Dumpty, but he couldn't leave the remaining people either.

His life was lost at the bottom of the river.

The appearance of the suppression stone showed that the tomb must not be far away, so they began to search around the suppression stone in the direction.

After searching in one direction, they then searched in the other direction.

It was a carpet search.

But even so, nothing was gained.

Seeing the increasingly dim lights above everyone's heads, He Rong became restless.

He just turned his head and suddenly fell into darkness from his perspective.

He turned his head and looked around again, and saw that it was also pitch black.

He was shocked in his heart.

He hurriedly groped for the nylon rope wrapped around his body and pulled it.

He felt relieved knowing that Jinhua was still around.

After being pulled by He Rong, Jinhua's eyes widened.

The sudden darkness made her wake up from the sadness of the incident with Pumpty Dumpty.

Now, not only did they lose Pumpty Dumpty, a general, but they also fell into this situation.

A situation where you can't even see your fingers.

She regretted her recklessness, but it was too late to regret it later.

She could only force herself to calm down.

She took a deep breath and pulled tightly on the rope that tied her body.

She carefully swam along one end of the rope to He Rong.

No matter how she argued with He Rong, He Rong was undoubtedly the backbone of the group besides the short fat man at this moment.

Darkness is the source of fear that has controlled the entire course of human history.

Because of fear of darkness, humans have initially drilled wood to make fire, invented various ignition tools, and now have electric lights.

In this strange river, in the darkness where they couldn't see their fingers, in the silent depths filled with unknown fear, they breathed rapidly.

Jinhua fumbled and knocked on He Rong's hood, and He Rong grabbed her hand.

The moment he touched it, Jinhua couldn't stop crying and filled her eyes.

She originally thought that by pretending to be sophisticated, tough, and hardworking, she would be fearless and support the Rong family, but she was wrong.

She was still the young lady of the Rong family who was afraid of the dark.

Trembling, he held He Rong's hand tightly.

Where there is innate strength and courage, cowardice and dependence are human instincts.

The so-called strength and the so-called bravery are the shining pearls honed in the shell, the sharp blade after being hammered and tempered by fire, and the countless sleepless nights and growth soaked in blood and tears after the huge changes in life.

Strength and bravery are both earned through pain, innocence and brightness are exchanged for sophistication, and tenderness and gentleness are exchanged for strength, coldness and arrogance.

This is the crown forged by strength and bravery.

If you want to win this crown, you must bear its weight.

Everything is exchanged at a price, so what can I do if I cry?

The tears in her eyes did not fall down after all, but rolled around in her eyes, blurring her vision.

Return to peace.

Jinhua had a hunch that the oxygen they carried on their bodies was no longer enough to support them in swimming back to the water, so they had no choice but to find a mausoleum.

Maybe in the mausoleum, they would have a chance of survival.

Making a decisive decision, Jinhua no longer dwells on the sadness of that moment.

Even if she is not strong and brave, even if she is mad at the moment, it is useless.

If she does not take action, she can only become a dead body in the river.

She pulled He Rong, because they couldn't communicate in the water, and she needed to convey information to He Rong.

For example, she wanted to count the number of people now to see if anyone was missing in the water or suffered misfortune.

After all, this is where the lame old man died.

In the Wulie River, not to mention evil spirits, even unknown creatures can give them a fatal blow at this moment.

Jinhua thought hard and finally came up with a solution.

Morse code.

He Rong once said about this method of transmission.

When He Rong first cooperated with Mr.

Xu and Plaid Suit, he specifically told them about this method of transmission.

Although they could not speak, they could tap.

I just don't know if there will be unnecessary echoes and noises when tapping in the water.

If so, I can only pray for He Rong's tacit understanding with her.

Check the number of people, which means checknuber in English.

Jinhua originally wanted to type the Morse code directly represented by c and n.

Later, he was worried that it was too simple and He Rong could not hear it, so he changed it to check, which was a test.

Her hands sometimes moved quickly and sometimes paused, hitting He Rong's mask.

However, He Rong did not respond.

She was a little anxious and did not take back her hand on He Rong's mask, preparing to continue tapping.

She stared at He Rong's blurry figure with her eyes, while tapping, praying for He Rong's response.

Just when she was about to continue tapping, there was a tapping sound from a slightly remote location.

Two long and three short tapping sounds were the answer of y, yes.

Who answered her Jinhua took a deep breath.

She and He Rong were so close together, and He Rong taught him the Morse code.

There was no reason why He Rong couldn't understand what she meant.

This time she planned to ask who the person was, but this time she did not knock on He Rong's mask, but on her own mask.

The response was quick, but the answer that came back frightened Jinhua.

The man answered with two letters, hr.

Among them, there was only one person, He Rong, who could match the abbreviation of the word.

But He Rong, he was by her side.

If that person was He Rong, then who would be by her side.

Jinhua did not dare to knock on the mask of the person next to her this time.

At this time, the man who called himself He Rong came again and asked her who she was.

Jinhua hesitated and typed out the initials of his name, jh.

The news from He Rong came quickly, and his reply was dontjoke.

Jinhua couldn't guess which one was He Rong.

She tried to pull the rope around her body, but it broke.

Did she separate from He Rong and his group?

If she separated from He Rong, did the one-armed boy beside her also separate?

Jinhua touched the rope again this time, her whole hand was shaking, and her heart was beating fast. , thump thump.

She listened to her breathing and touched the rope again.

Likewise, it’s broken But for a moment, she was still holding He Rong's hand tightly.

How could she change someone in the blink of an eye?

Then, who would be the person in front of her now?

This place was really weird and scary.

She wanted to stay away from the person in front of her, so she quickly swung her arms and rowed backwards.

At this time, there was another knocking sound from that direction, it was care, be careful.

If that person was really He Rong, he must have realized that he was no longer with him.

This explanation was very reasonable.

Jinhua had a bolder guess at this moment.

It was very likely that the group of them had all been separated.

The person in front of her was one of their group, but she didn't know who it was.

Who could it be?

Jinhua made various calculations in her mind.

Apart from her and He Rong, the only people who knew about this Morse code were four lame old men.

The lame old man was gone and the short fat man was killed.

It was definitely not the two of them.

If the tall man and the boy with a broken arm heard the news, they would naturally communicate with her, but they did not answer.

Now the only one she has contacted is He Rong.

The person in front of her If a person is not Xu, he is wearing a plaid suit; if he is not wearing a plaid suit, he is Xu.

With their grievances, the two of them would never let her go easily.

The coldness in Jinhua's heart gradually dissipated from her heart, and soon her limbs became cold.

She tried hard to move back, but found that her feet were restrained and even felt like they were sinking.

This is mud, she stepped on the mud Jinhua probed around again, and the tentacles felt like stones.

Because she couldn't see them, she couldn't guess whether this was a tombstone.

If it was really a tombstone, the one in front of her was Humpty Dumpty.

Jinhua didn't know how to describe her mood at this moment.

She could only maintain this posture for the time being and dare not move.

She continued to knock on the mask to convey the message to He Rong, and He Rong replied to her with the same answer.

He was also stuck in the quagmire.

Could it be that his life was really going to end here?

Jinhua felt a surge of sadness in his heart.

Of course, things are not that simple.

After He Rong passed the news, there were two weak knocking sounds radiating around them.

They were the sounds of knocking on masks.

Jinhua could distinguish it.

She listened carefully and said I didn’t understand the meaning of the knocking sound.

But she speculated that the two knocking sounds were most likely the tall man and the boy with the broken arm.

After the knocking sound of the suspected tall man and the boy with a broken arm ended, He Rong sent another message.

The word he pronounced this time was a.

Jinhua was a little confused and wanted to continue asking.

At this time, the quagmire under her body suddenly began to roll.

To be precise, it should be mud rolling.

The mud quickly covered her forearms and reached her chest.

Regarding the sudden eruption of mud in the quagmire, Jinhua's hands were now wrapped in the mud.

Because of the bulkiness of the diving suit, she felt that her body was sinking continuously.

She was unable to communicate with He Rong, Gao Zhi and others, and I don't know what situation they were facing at this time.

There was a pressure in the mud, which was constantly squeezing her heart and lungs.

She was a little breathless.

At this time, the mud had reached her neck.

This pressure may be suffocating.

Feeling the discomfort in his heart and lungs, Jinhua's mind was filled with messy things.

She always had the unbelievable thought that she might die in the same way as Humpty Dumpty.

Later, the mud covered her face, and she watched the mud covering her whole body.

Her body was completely melted into the mud at this moment.

Judging from scientific knowledge, she should be on the verge of death now, because Jinhua actually felt that she was walking in the mire.

Yes, she was indeed walking.

Although she was wrapped in the mire, her feet were indeed What he stepped on was not mud, but something hard.

Maybe it was an out-of-body experience, she wondered.

Since Jinhua regarded herself as a dying person, she didn't have much scruples, so she stamped her feet curiously at the things under her feet.

It seemed that there was a hollow under her feet.

After she stepped on it, she felt more and more heavy and falling.

First she heard a crisp clang, and then her whole body fell uncontrollably.

At the moment of the rapid fall, Jinhua tightened her hands.

The diving suit may have hit something during the fall.

Her left arm ached a little.

The pain was so real that she felt for a moment that her soul was not out of body.

When a dazzling light fell into her eyes, she realized that she was in a brightly lit hall, although there was still a flow of mud falling towards her above her.

Jinhua turned over to avoid the mud flow.

When she got up, she suddenly saw the short fat man getting up next to the mud flow.

The short fat man looked at her without saying a word.

Is it a human or a ghost?

Looking at the short fat man in front of her, Jinhua couldn't be sure, because when they fell, the lights in this place were turned off.

Although she could see the short fat man, the light in this place was dim, so she still couldn't make a judgment.

She could only see Humpty Dumpty's mask covered in mud.

Jinhua swallowed, looked at the short fat man, and considered his next move, whether to run or talk to the short fat man first. sjgsf0916:
