Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 340

340 3 Chapter Forty Salmon Fish

Looking at the strange thing with a flashlight, I frowned and said, "The flashlight should have been brought down by Fatty, right? What kind of animal is that? I feel like I have seen it before, and it looks familiar, right on the edge of my mouth. What's your name?"

The little brother said: "Baby fish."

"Baby fish..." I suddenly realized: "Oh! Yes, yes, it is really a big fat fish with four legs."

The little brother turned to look at me, and I smiled and said, "I heard before that the body color of this giant salamander varies with the color of its habitat. The bottom of the lake is full of white sediment, so the one on Wu Xie's side is It must be gray. I have only seen red-brown and black-brown ones, so I didn’t recognize them just now.

I remember Bai Hao said that he should remember the giant salamander, so he just thought about the appearance of Elder Hong, and then thought about the big fat fish with four legs, so that he would never forget it.

There are also giant salamanders in Qilin City, but they are all cultivated into human forms, including spirits, demons, semi-immortals, etc. The original forms are basically gone. They are either no different from humans, or they are half and half, and there are not many people. .

Elder Hong, who manages amphibians, is a giant salamander. I heard that his original form was two meters long. The old man’s surname was Hong, and his name was Fat Salamander. He was indeed fatter. I remember that he looked very strange, with a big and flat head. The distance between his eyes is quite wide, his nose is very small, and he has a big mouth. He has long reddish-brown hair and a long beard, but he is quite amiable and always smiling.

The water-proof spirit stone that Liyue brought to me this time was the inner elixir left behind by the primitive animals of the Amphibian class. Elder Hong gave it to me. According to me, this is a bead that has been cultivated for more than a thousand years.

I thought about what Agui said about people coming to this lake to catch fish, but I didn’t see a single fish. It seemed that what they caught was a giant salamander, but it is an amphibian and not a fish.

There are few people here, and the environment is actually very primitive, with green mountains and green trees. This is also a freshwater lake with cool water. On the shore, they can move among the root systems of trees or on fallen tree trunks. In the water, the lake is close to the mountain wall. It is estimated that There will also be caves. There are many stone crevices in this ancient building, which are indeed their favorite places. They will choose to live in caves at the mouth of the beach where there is backflow. Our place is considered a cave, and Fatty’s flashlight is on it. , have you caught it?I do not know how? "

The little brother said: "What do you think?"

I said "Uh". It seemed that the fat man did it when I was unconscious. I rubbed my little brother coquettishly, and he rubbed his hair on me. We continued to pay attention to Wu Xie.

Wu Xie looked at the four-legged monster and felt that it looked like a big giant salamander. He remembered that he had eaten this thing before in his hometown, but the one in front of him was too big. He felt scared looking at it.

He took a look at the flashlight and found that it was the same old yellow leather flashlight he had used when diving naked before. He immediately thought that it must have been brought by Fatty, Mengyoupin or Xiaoxun. He saw that there There is a wire on the body of the giant salamander, so it is obvious that someone tied the flashlight to it. The person most likely to do this among these three people seems to be the fat man.

Wu Xie seems to have had a real adventure underwater. Although he doesn’t know what Fatty and Menyou Ping went through underwater, and he doesn’t know whether Xiaoxun found Menyou Ping and how he got there, but maybe everyone They are really still alive, but they are just trapped in a certain place. There is probably air in that place, but they are blocked by something and cannot come out, so Fatty wants others to notice this giant salamander and ask for help in this way.

This is good news for him, because everything is still too late, and this light is not a water ghost. He said in his heart, damn it!He never thought that the green light was emitted by something like this. It was really scary. He immediately relaxed and became paralyzed. His whole body relaxed. He was wondering how the light of the flashlight turned green. Okay, what's going on?

He felt that with Fatty's spooky character, there might be clues about their current situation on the giant salamander, and he had to catch it.

Wu Xie was a little worried again. It was very inconvenient for people to have their hands and feet underwater, and it would be very difficult to fight with things in the water. And as far as he knew, this giant salamander was also a tyrant in the water, and its bite was quite powerful. , the size of the one in front of me is also too big. If it bites it, I'm afraid my fingers will be punished. Looking at the speed of that thing swimming, I'm afraid it will be quite choked.

An Ningling looked at the hesitant Wu Xie and felt that he was eyeing the giant salamander. He raised his spur and slowly swam over. When he was about one meter closer, the guy "swish" Suddenly, he swung his tail fiercely, swam six or seven meters like lightning, and stopped on the other side of the bricks.

Wu Xiexin said, Damn it!At this speed, even if you use a harpoon on the shore, this thing may not be able to hit it. However, it seems to be quite docile and does not attack you. You have to try again no matter what.

He tried to continue to approach it slowly, but when he was almost close to it, the moment he stretched out his hand, the giant salamander "slithered" and quickly moved to another place.

It slid past Wu Xie and An Ningling. They both felt that the water flow formed by the tail of the giant salamander was very powerful. If it was provoked, the power it would unleash would be amazing.

An Ningling thought, this thing is no longer easy to catch. If it thinks Wu Xie is an enemy and starts to stir, even if he catches it in his hand, Wu Xie may not be able to control it with his own strength. Shouldn't he Help him intercept it.

At this moment, Wu Xie's oxygen lamp sounded an alarm, and he became a little impatient. He looked around with a flashlight, looking for anything that could be used as a tool. He had to make a quick decision.

But there was nothing around, just those iron figurines, but they were too heavy to lift even if they were useful.It seems that the only tool that can be used is the spiritual pillar that I brought with me, but I really don’t want to hurt this giant salamander. After all, it is also a life, but I can’t control so much!
I said "uh" and said, "Is he going to use force to solve it?"

I saw him swimming over again and raising the spur in his hand. Looking at his posture, I felt like he was going to kill me, and I became nervous when he looked at me.

Wu Xie was extremely anxious, thinking about how he could catch it even if he pinned it to death. Even if it couldn't be nailed to death, at least it would be injured so that it could no longer swim so fast. There was still hope for him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. , once the viciousness of this person rises, any pity will be empty words.

The giant salamander stopped at the foot of the iron frame and was lying on the blue bricks above. Wu Xie held his breath and slowly floated over like a floating corpse, getting closer to it little by little. An Ningling was also moving and changing herself. position.

Just when he saw it was only half an arm's distance away, he slowed down his movements, like a slow motion movie, raised the spur in his hand extremely slowly, and moved it to a similar position. I wanted to stab him.

The giant salamander seemed to sense Wu Xie's malice and moved forward a few centimeters with a "swish". At the same time, Wu Xie felt cruel and stabbed its big fleshy tail with a military thorn. The giant salamander curled up in pain. stand up.

Wu Xie felt that the giant salamander was struggling with great strength, and his spurs almost fell out of his hand. He hurriedly chased after him and grabbed the flashlight on it, but the resistance under the water was too great, so he failed to catch it properly. The same goes for the giant salamander. The ruthless character actually broke off his own tail and swam six to seven meters like flying. This time he didn't stop and ran straight to the other end of the brick room.

I couldn't help but mutter: "Brother Wu Xie is so fierce all of a sudden..." I looked at him and raised my fists.

Seeing that the giant fish that had lost its tail slowed down significantly, Wu Xie swung his flippers to catch up.

But in the water, the accuracy of such a catch is too low. Several times, he was escaped by the giant salamander even when he thought he was sure to succeed.

In this way, Wu Xie's physical strength dropped even more obviously after he had been diving for a long time. He bit down on the respirator and pulled on the iron frame with his hands to borrow strength. , reluctantly followed.

The green light suddenly disappeared in a turn. An Ningling quickly chased after it, and Wu Xie followed closely and pounced on it along the disappearing arc.

Aning Ling saw a hole in the blue bricks on the wall, and the giant salamander slipped in. She felt that Wu Xie should be able to catch it now, and she was relieved.

Wu Xie rushed over and reached in without stammering. He immediately touched the flashlight, but he couldn't get it out no matter how hard he tried. He felt that the giant salamander must be clinging to the brick wall inside, so he kicked up his feet. , hold against both sides of the masonry, and use all your body weight to roll back.

At this moment, he felt his hand loosen suddenly, and he pulled out the flashlight. He was thrown out in a somersault and hit the iron shelf behind.

Wu Xie stabilized his posture with some difficulty. He looked in his hand and saw that the rope tied to the flashlight turned out to be the nylon thread on the fat man's travel bag. The thing couldn't bear the strength and broke.

He used the search light to shine inside the cave again. The giant salamander was nestled inside like a pitiful little thing, and it seemed that it was unwilling to come out. Anyway, the important things were already in hand, so Wu Xie didn't bother to care about it anymore, and hurriedly put the flashlight on it. Under the search light, he wanted to see if the fat man had done anything else, and he saw a few words engraved on it: SOS, follow the siphon tide.

He turned it over and looked at it, and there was a line of small characters at the back. The carving was very rough and the shape of the characters was ugly. It could be seen that the carving was done with great force, but the flashlight was scratched and deformed. The lines were quite obvious, but the characters could not be clearly read. What is the content of the carving? It seems that the reason why the green light is on and off is caused by the bumps.

He looked at the glass cover of the flashlight and found that it was covered with a thick layer of green waterproof tape. It turned out that this was how the blue light came from!He couldn't help but cursed secretly, "This damn fat man almost scared my soul out of me. Even if a search team saw this, I'm afraid they would be scared to death!"

Wu Xie thought about the meaning of these words and understood very clearly, that is, they were still alive, but needed rescue. The clue to find them was the siphon tide.

This kind of flashlight can only be used for no more than ten hours at most, and it can still emit such bright light, which means that Ming Ming will not be tied to the giant salamander for long. He is even more sure that everyone is still alive and well, and he feels very happy. Happy.

Suddenly I realized that Fatty was really awesome!This giant salamander didn't appear until now. It was obvious that he had judged that he would enter the water at this time.

But it's strange. This place is at least more than 1000 meters away from the place where they disappeared. How did these three people reach the underground mine without using oxygen bottles?But no matter what, Wu Xiejue's whole person became clear at this time, and the big stone in his heart finally sank. He knew that they were definitely still alive, and the rest was not important. The most important thing now was to people rescued.
