The coffin was filled with yellowish-brown liquid, and it exuded bursts of stench;

Zhao Zhu knew that these were all corpse water. He took out a miniature gas mask from his backpack and put it on his face. He also took out the silk gloves and put them on again, and then started the next step.

Corpse water is the product of the deterioration of proteins and sugars of many microorganisms. After the death of the human body, the body is no longer metabolized and cannot function normally, and it is easy to generate corpse water. Because when a person is alive and the body is functioning normally, the defense virus system in the body inhibits the survival and reproduction of bacteria and viruses in the body; however, after a person dies, the bacteria and viruses multiply without the control of the body defense system, and through dehydration, sugar, Proteins form soluble compounds that dissolve in water to form corpse water. Since there are a large number of scavenging bacteria and fungi living in the corpse water, and the metabolites of these microorganisms have certain toxins, the corpse water is poisonous.

The corpse in the coffin was carried out by Zhao Zhu, and was thrown outside the coffin. It had been soaked in the corpse water for four hundred years. The description of the corpse swollen and enlarged like dough after being soaked in water is terrifying.

Not long ago, a passenger ship named "Oriental Star" capsized in the Yangtze River, killing more than 400 people, and those who dived into the ship to conduct search and rescue investigations all experienced psychological distress after the search and rescue activities. Psychotherapy by doctors, because you can imagine entering an underwater ship and looking at the hundreds of corpses that were soaked in water and turned into giants. The shock of the picture is enough to become a lifelong dream!

After taking out the body, Zhao Zhu began to **** in the coffin again. Soon, he made a major discovery. This coffin has no bottom!

That's right, there is no bottom. After Zhao Zhu's arms had almost reached into the corpse water, he still didn't touch the bottom of the coffin. Zhao Zhu took out a soft rope from his backpack and tied a small lead weight to one end of the rope. , and then threw the plumb bob down, the soft rope was nearly twenty meters long, and all the twenty meters had been put down, but the plumb bob was still not at the bottom, so deep!

Zhao Zhu's guess became a reality. The passage leading to the next tomb is inside this coffin!

However, another problem was placed in front of Zhao Zhu. Could it be that the liquid below is similar to corpse water?

If that's the case, how can you dive in?

"No, it shouldn't be all corpse water, nor so many corpses piled up to form such a terrifying abyss of corpse water."

Zhao Zhu muttered to himself.

This coffin has no bottom. However, oil or other liquids should be used to isolate the bottom of the coffin from the water surface below, and a liquid is used to isolate it, so the corpse in this coffin will produce corpse water. , but it is only this coffin. The water in the abyss at the bottom of the coffin may not be as pure as the 'Hengda Ice Spring', but it is groundwater after all, and the nearby ground is also deep in the mountains and old forests. There is no factory sewage, so it is not dirty. Where to go.

Diving equipment, Zhao Zhu certainly did not bring, there are not many things that can be brought, and a bag will just be stuffed down. Zhao Zhu cannot afford to buy another diving suit and oxygen bottle, but the equipment of Mr. Han It is indeed very complete. There is even a "scuba" in it. This scuba is not an oxygen bottle, but a few things that should be made of animal spleen and stomach. You can inject air and make them into balloons, and this thing The material is very delicate, and it is not easy to be damaged, so it can be tied around the waist and launched into the water. When breathing underwater, you can directly take off a scuba and use it.

Zhao Zhu has filled four scuba lungs in total. In fact, there are a few more in the bag, but Zhao Zhu doesn't plan to hang up any more. Otherwise, the buoyancy is too great. Can he dive down with a balloon strapped on himself?

"Hu... hu... hu..."

After taking a few deep breaths at the side of the coffin, Zhao Zhu plunged into the coffin. Sure enough, Zhao Zhu felt the resistance of a layer of viscous liquid at the bottom of the coffin. After breaking through it, he entered the water that seemed to be relatively clear. , The water was a little cold, and the visibility was not very high. Zhao Zhu held a flashlight in one hand and groped for the parade inside.

At this time, the most important thing is to find the right direction. After all, time at the bottom of the water is very precious, and there must not be too much waste. Zhao Zhu first hit the flashlight all around. Zhu was also not interested in continuing to dive in. In his opinion, he should have swum through an area and then floated up to another tomb, not that he was desperately diving to catch the blind. Besides, the water pressure increased as he went down, Zhao Zhu said again. Without professional diving equipment, even if you want to dive, you will not be able to dive. The consequence of insisting on diving is that you will be crushed to death by this water pressure!

Suddenly, Zhao Zhu's eyes were locked on a chain. This chain was not below, but above Zhao Zhu's head. The top of his head was the foundation part of the cemetery above. This chain should be used to lock something, but this one. Just in time to show Zhao Zhu the direction, Zhao Zhu kept his body as close as possible to the upper reaches of the water level, and then swam in the direction of the chain.

Three minutes later, Zhao Zhu unfastened the first scuba, drained the air inside, and continued to swim forward. After another three minutes, Zhao Zhu unfastened the second scuba. If he can't find the floating point, Zhao Zhu can only choose to return, otherwise he will have to drown in the water if he runs out of scuba.

However, at this time, Zhao Zhu made a new discovery. Beside the chain, more and more obvious claw marks began to appear, as if something was scratching desperately on the stone wall, and the chain began to break. and damaged parts.

Looking at this posture, the chain should be used to lock something, but the thing broke free, and he broke the chain himself. Looking at the size of the chain, the guy bound was definitely not too small.

This discovery made Zhao Zhu's heart shrouded in a dark cloud~lightnovelpub.net~ God knows what the Qing Dynasty once locked up here, but, four hundred years later, even if something was locked in the Here, it should be dead, right? But don't get asexual reproduction here.

Just when Zhao Zhu only had two scuba left, a little light appeared in front of Zhao Zhu, Zhao Zhu was overjoyed, and immediately swam more desperately there, because he felt that the exit was coming.

However, as the distance got closer, Zhao Zhu felt more and more that the light was a little strange. The light seemed to have his own thinking, and it was not so pure. However, Zhao Zhu continued to swim there. After all, he couldn't You're just hanging around here, aren't you?

Every minute or even every second underwater is so precious.

Finally, after getting closer again, Zhao Zhu finally understood the reason for his strange feeling before. The light in front of him, where is the light coming out, was clearly the eyes of a huge underwater creature. , bigger than a lantern, and most of its body is still vague and invisible, but that volume is absolutely terrifyingly large, no less than an adult great white shark!

That thing should have discovered Zhao Zhu long ago, and has been watching Zhao Zhu swimming towards it little by little.

In fact, this is also the hunting method of some underwater creatures, using the luminous body as an attraction source to attract nearby fish to gather around them, and then start to hunt and devour.

At this time, it seemed that it felt that Zhao Zhu was close enough to it, and it began to shake its body to emerge from the darkness. The flow of water began to violently agitate!
