The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 454 The Broken Road Ahead

Yuan Mu never speaks in a hurry, it seems that nothing can bother him, and he always looks confident.With him like this, people would be quiet whenever they heard him speak.As if, he will always have a solution.

This was the first time Yang Yang heard his nervous voice since he had known him for so long.Yang Yang even felt that he could hear a tremor in his voice.

The witch didn't mince words with him. He glanced at them and said, "It's not that I suspect anything, but the facts are right in front of us. I think the leylines may be polluted."

As soon as his words came out, Yu Zhongwu's expression turned dark.He immediately turned his head to look at Yuan Mu, who fell silent under his gaze.Yang Yang felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, but he couldn't say anything.

Yang Yang didn't know what the consequences of the pollution of the earth's veins would be.But he could guess from the expressions of Yuan Mu and Yu Zhongwu, it must be something very scary.Otherwise, their faces wouldn't be so ugly.

Seemingly noticing Yang Yang and Ning Yuan's puzzled gazes, Yuan Mu took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "As I said before, earth veins are the foundation of all living beings, just like soil. If the soil is destroyed If it is polluted, you must know what the consequences will be, so I won’t be alarmist here. And the consequences of the pollution of the leylines will only be more serious.”

Yang Yang and Ning Yuan, who didn't know much about this at first, but had a little idea, were suddenly startled by his words.They thought of what they had seen in news reports, the horrific consequences of countless soils being polluted.

If the earth veins are really polluted... Yang Yang was a little scared, and asked in a low voice: "Are you sure?"

His voice was very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, like something hidden in the darkness, with a bit of caution.But at this time, even Dancing in the Rain couldn't open his mouth to laugh at his timidity.

Everyone was frightened by the Malay speculation.

If there is really a problem with the leylines, it can explain why the Wu descendant obviously has no effect on the perception of the leylines, but Phoenix entrusted him with a dream.It can also explain why a mountain god appeared for no reason, and even the various unreasonable phenomena they encountered along the way had reasons.

Someone didn't want them to touch the leylines, or rather, didn't want them all to touch them.

Yuan Mu looked at Yang Yang who was not aware of it, pursed his lips, exchanged glances with Wu Yi, and then said, "I'm not sure. But since Wu Yi has already noticed something is wrong, it must be close, otherwise It really doesn't make sense."

Yang Yang nodded his head at his words. In fact, he hadn't fully realized it yet, but he was used to Yuan Mu's command.For Yuan Mu, he gave the highest trust. Since Yuan Mu said that there was a problem, then it must be like this.

He didn't ask Yuan Mu how he was sure, he felt that even if he asked, he probably wouldn't be able to figure out why.It's better to keep your mouth shut and obey orders obediently.

It's a pity that he is not the only person here, but also Ning Yuan.

Although Ning Yuan has not reached the point where he is the most intelligent in the world, his IQ is indeed higher than others.Therefore, he saw Yuan Mu's unusual expression at a glance, as well as his movements of secretly communicating with the Malays just now.

Almost immediately, Ning Yuan had already guessed what they were communicating.Even though they didn't speak, Ning Yuan still knew what the point of their communication was - Ning Yuan didn't miss Yuan Mu's eyes before he looked at the Wu Yi. At that time, his eyes were almost on the same person.

Thinking of the people who had the most problems along the way, Ning Yuan probably knew in his heart.If there is really nothing, why bother?Yang Yang could feel that it was not easy for Yuan Mu to take him this trip, and of course Ning Yuan could also guess, even earlier than Yang Yang.

Therefore, everything has a conclusion in Ning Yuan's heart.It turned out that Yang Yang was brought here with a certain purpose, presumably he was just passing by.Or, yourself is also very important.

But in any case, none of them expected this to happen.Although Yuan Mu said it lightly, Ning Yuan knew that the pollution of the earth veins is definitely not such a simple matter.

Otherwise, his complexion would not have become so ugly.But now, they seem to feel that all this has something to do with Yang Yang.Thinking of this, Ning Yuan said: "Since we are not sure, but this matter is of great importance, I think it is better for us to investigate clearly."

After he finished speaking, several people had no objections.When something like this happened, Wu Yi, as a mountain god, must figure it out now that he has doubts.

Seeing that no one objected, Ning Yuan said again: "Then, what we should decide now is how to move forward. We all saw just now that the road ahead is broken."

In fact, along the way, everyone has of course encountered the same situation.However, among the group, there are only two mortals, and the others are very powerful monsters.

Even though his spiritual power is sealed now, his skill is still far superior to others.So when they encountered a broken road, most of them came over without any danger by using the dragon's tendons of Dancing in the Rain.

When Ning Yuan said this, Yang Yang suddenly remembered that before the mirage came out, what he saw was the witch descended in front.Could it be that they were already considering this matter at that time?

Thinking to himself, Yang Yang raised his head and looked in front of them, the road under his feet stretched into the darkness.At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it.But when Yang Yang looked forward carefully with the help of the fireball, he found something was wrong.

After the road extended for about ten meters, it suddenly disappeared.Yang Yang watched, stood up suddenly, and walked towards that place, but stopped when he saw the road ahead clearly.

Most of the breaks they encountered before were within five meters.With great masters like Rain Dance and Yuan Mu around, although they put in a bit of effort, they were still able to pass.But what is in front of my eyes now is a fault that I can't see the distance.

Yang Yang could only vaguely see some shadows of the road ahead under the light of the fireball.But according to my own visual inspection, it is very narrow there.Even if they wanted to go there, no one could stand there, let alone run on it.

Yang Yang curled his lips, turned his head to look at the others and asked, "Then you discussed it, how did you leave?"

In fact, there was one thing Yang Yang didn't say out loud, he always felt that after passing through the mirage, the sound of the water flow became louder, as if it was right under their feet.

"If you can't go up, go down." I don't know if it's a tacit understanding, but Yuan Mu's proposal is similar to Yang Yang's idea.Now that the road above is broken, they can only use the underground river to get there.

but……

"How can you be sure that the water in the underground river is in the same direction as us?" Ning Yuan asked suddenly.

They were walking down all the way, and they heard the sound of water from the beginning, so they naturally had the illusion that the underground river and themselves were in the same direction.But illusions are called illusions because most of the time they are wrong.

What if the direction of the underground river doesn't match theirs?Then they will only be washed farther and farther, and there will be no chance of turning back at that time - even if they don't say anything, everyone can hear from the sound of the water that the underground river under their feet is not slow.

For a few people without spiritual power, basically, it is impossible to resist such a force of nature.So, before getting in the water, they need to be sure of a few things.

His words made everyone stunned for a while, and then they figured out the whole story.Dancing in the Rain stood up, walked to the edge of the cliff, and stretched out her hand in a "lifting" motion.Following his movements, Yang Yang felt that the sound of the water flow seemed to have stopped for a moment.Then, there was a more turbulent sound of water flow.

Yu Zhongwu turned around, looked at the few people, and nodded slightly as a nod.Explain to several people: "The current is in the same direction as us." After speaking, he paused for a moment, and then said: "But we don't know how far we have to go, and the current is very fast, so be careful."

Yang Yang froze for a moment, then remembered.Dancing in the Rain is Yinglong, and Yinglong follows the water. The water quality must be much better than them.

"Then get ready, let's go into the water." Yuan Mu concluded.

Speaking of preparation, it's just a matter of repacking the luggage.Just because they can walk in water doesn't mean luggage can too.Yuan Mu and the others didn't care, but Yang Yang and Ning Yuan were just mortals, they couldn't live without water and food.

After simply tying up the water and food, and after Dancing in the Rain made a waterproof barrier, several people quickly jumped off the cliff.

Fortunately, the drop between the cliff and the underground river is not very large, and the underground river looks very deep, so nothing unexpected happened.However, as the dance in the rain said, the water flow was very fast, and almost as soon as the water hit the water, several people were quickly washed away.

As for where he will be rushed, Yang Yang has no idea.But looking at Dancing in the Rain who was leading the way ahead, he felt a little relieved that with him around, it would not be too bad.

The blue-green fireball of the witches still floated above them, illuminating their paths as the witches advanced.Yang Yang squinted his eyes and looked at the stone walls on both sides, and found that these stone walls did not seem to be formed naturally, or in other words, not entirely.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to tell them, he suddenly felt that the dragon tendons around his waist tightened, and he was dragged out.

It's really like a group of dumplings tied with ropes!
The moment Yang Yang was dragged out by the dragon tendon, he had only one thought.
