Chapter 416 [Under the Mask] (Part 2)
Luo Lie put on his head hood calmly. When the group of monkeys were about to rush over, Luo Lie threw out a homemade smoke bomb. The smoke bomb exploded in the team of monkeys. This smoke bomb was specially made. In addition to the power of the explosion itself, there were also high-purity pepper extractant and mustard extractant in the smoke. In fact, Luo Lie threw out a homemade tear gas.
After inhaling the smoke, the group of water monkeys coughed violently one by one. They covered their eyes, closed their gills, and struggled in the smoke. Some water monkeys had to choose to jump into the hot spring because they could not bear the stimulating smell.
However, the python in the hot spring was still there. It did not regard the water monkey as its good neighbor in its eyes. It attacked everywhere with bloody mouths and launched a merciless bloody massacre on the water monkey who fled into the water.
Luo Lie's original intention of making this tear gas was to believe that in the traditional Chinese five elements, soil can overcome water. He initially thought of using lime against water monkeys. He didn't know if it was effective. Later, he remembered tear gas. In fact, during World War I, France had already used the German army on the battlefield. Luo Lie improved and purified the original tear gas, which was even more powerful. However, Luo Lie was not sure enough before using it. Seeing that tear gas was so destructive to water monkeys, he realized that he had indeed found a way to deal with water monkeys.
In order to escape the terrible smell, the water monkey rushed into the hot spring one by one. The giant python kept swallowing the prey that came to the door. For a moment, the water in the hot spring pool seemed to boil, and the water in the pool was stained red by the blood of the water monkey.
Luo Lie and Wu Jie were also freed from the scene where they were besieged by the Shui Monkeys. Now the Shui Monkeys simply regard them as evil stars, let alone take the initiative to attack.
They walked deep into the cave. Because they mastered the method of dealing with the water monkey, they were now fearless. They walked forward for more than 30 meters and had arrived at the end. Although there were a lot of precious treasures caught from the wreckage ship, there was no purple jade box that Wu Jie was thinking about.
While they were searching inside, they heard the terrifying cry of water monkeys coming from outside from time to time. After searching for an hour, Wu Jie shook his head and whispered: "I can't feel anything abnormal. There should be no Purple Mansion Jade Box here."
Luo Lie also had the same feeling as him, comforting Wu Jie, "Maybe the Zifu Jade Box is just a rumor." He looked at the time, and there was still an hour left before the agreed time to go back, and said to Wu Jie, "Let's go up first to avoid them worrying."
Wu Jie frowned and murmured: "It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this!"
Luo Lie did not expect that the Zifu Jade Box was taken seriously by him and advised: "Mr. Wu, why not let's go back first, take a rest before returning here?"
Wu Jie suddenly said, "Water Pond, we still have a pool that has not been searched!"
Luo Lie was shocked. Of course, he knew where the pool in Wu Jie's mouth was referring to. They had never searched the hot spring pool before, but the pool was the nest of the giant python. The monkeys who had just escaped into the pool basically became the prey of the giant python. Although they both had good martial arts skills, they were not sure to defeat the giant python.
Luo Liedao: "Mr. Wu, I hope I think twice."
Wu Jie said: "You can not go, I must go."
Luo Liedao: "Is the purple palace jade box more important than life in the heart of the gentleman?"
Wu Jie said: "To me, light is more important than life. If you are not me, you will not understand." After that, he strode towards the pool.
Luo Lie quickly followed him, and Wu Jie stopped in front of the pool and said, "You are different from me. I am alone. You have family. You don't need to take risks with me." He grabbed the body of a water monkey on the ground and threw it into the pool. Wu Jie's purpose was to lure the giant python out.
However, after the corpse of the water monkey fell into the pool, the giant python came out to hunt for food for a long time. Luo Lie secretly speculated that the giant python must have eaten too much and no longer had any interest in prey. Wu Jie also thought of this layer and said in a deep voice: "Now is the best time. You must not miss it, and you will never miss it!" Once the python digests all the food, his second hunting operation will begin again. When that time comes, the risk of trying to sneak into the pool will inevitably increase several times.
Wu Jie jumped into the pool without hesitation. As soon as he entered the pool, he felt the turbulent water waves. From the amplitude of the turbulent water waves, it can be judged that it was not the giant python that came out of the hole. Moreover, the turbulence of the water waves came from behind him. Wu Jie judged that Luo Lie followed him into the pool, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved. Luo Lie took the risk of accompanying him into the pool and searching for the Zifu Jade Box. This not only required courage, but also reflected his deep friendship for him.
The more they dived, the more visibility the pool water was, which was related to the blood of the monkeys contaminated with water. The two of them concentrated on feeling all the movements around them. Apart from the turmoil caused by their snooping, they did not find any abnormalities. Luo Lie thought to himself, was the giant python really full and returned to its own nest to rest?
The water in the pond was warm, and Wu Jie followed the warmth in it to the spring of the hot spring. The depth of the pond should be more than thirty meters. As they got closer and closer to the spring, Luo Lie saw a faint purple light blooming below.
Of course, Wu Jie couldn't see where the light was. Luo Lie continued to swimmer down the light and quickly determined that the purple light came from the spring. Wu Jie had already swam to the position of the spring first. Because the hot spring gushed out of the spring, if you want to enter the spring, you must fight the resistance of the hot spring gushing out.
Wu Jie used a bamboo stick to penetrate into the spring, and soon poked an object as hard as a stone slab. He took back the bamboo stick to resist the gushing water from the spring. He swam into the spring.
Luo Lie saw that half of Wu Jie's body had entered the spring, leaving only two legs outside. At this moment, he suddenly felt the turbulent water above his head. Looking up, the giant python was rushing downwards. Luo Lie nervously patted Wu Jie's right leg and reminded him that he had to leave the spring immediately, but Wu Jie was still unmoved.
Luo Lie had no choice but to take out the fishing gun and fire at the giant python. The arrowhead broke through the water and shot up the giant python's head. The sharp tip was blocked by the giant python's hard skin, causing no damage to the giant python at all.
Luo Lie turned on the waterproof hand lamp, and the beam shone on the giant python, hoping to scare the giant python away with the beam. Unexpectedly, the giant python did not retreat, but instead rushed towards him. Luo Lie threw the hand lamp with all his strength to the distance. The giant python was temporarily attracted by the light beam, slightly changed direction, and swallowed the hand lamp in one mouthful.
The water in the pool was turbulent, and the giant python's long tail swept towards Luo Lie. Luo Lie's movements were affected in the water. Because he could not dodge, he was swept into the abdomen by the giant python. Luo Lie's body floated to the side like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
The giant python's huge body was very flexible in the water. He quickly turned his head and opened his bloody mouth to pounce on Wu Jie, who was still half of his body in the spring.
Luo Lie's body was still floating backwards. He watched the giant python pounce on Wu Jie, but unfortunately he was powerless. He felt extremely helpless. Should he watch Wu Jie be swallowed into the belly by the giant python? When Wu Jie was about to be swallowed into the belly by the giant python, a dazzling purple light burst out from the spring. This light illuminated the entire pool. Luo Lie's eyes were also white by the light. He subconsciously closed his eyes. If he stared at this strong light for a long time, his eyes would be burned or even blind.
The giant python suddenly stopped attacking because of this strong light. Unlike humans, pythons have no eyelids. Even if they die, they will not close their eyes. Although the python's vision is not good, it still reacts to the light. The unlucky giant python's eyes were burned by the strong light. The giant python's eyes were first white and then turned into black. It struggled in the water and fell into panic due to sudden blindness.
Wu Jie was holding a square purple crystal stone in the size of a Rubik's Cube, which was the crystal itself emitted such a strong light.
Luo Lie did not dare to open his eyes. He instinctively floated upwards. The giant python's tail just now swept into his left rib. Luo Lie felt that two of his ribs might have broken. The stinging pain made it difficult for him to continue to support him. The instinct for survival allowed him to return to the shore as soon as possible.
Wu Jie was holding the purple crystal stone, and he also began to float up. The huge body of the giant python danced in the water, but it did not dare to attack Wu Jie. Wu Jie quickly floated to the surface with the purple crystal stone in his arms.
Luo Lie had already climbed to the shore first and lay on the ground, his eyes still closed. Although he closed his eyes quickly enough, his eyes were still burned by the strong light.
Wu Jie appeared on the shore. After the square crystal stone left the hot spring, the light quickly began to dim and soon turned into a dull gray. Wu Jie said: "Here you see, what are the characteristics of this thing?" While speaking, his hands were stroking the surface of the crystal, trying to determine whether there were any inscriptions and patterns on it, but the places where the fingers touched were smooth, and Wu Jie felt that the temperature of the crystal was dropping rapidly.
Luo Lie tried to open a thin slit on his left eye, be sure that the thing would no longer shine, so he opened his eyes carefully. His vision should not be affected too much, but he started to cry as soon as he opened his eyes. Luo Lie knew that the strong light just now burned his eyes and might take some time to recuperate before his eyes could fully recover.
He looked at the square crystal stone and said, "It seems to be a solid thing. Could this be the Zifu Jade Box?"
Wu Jie's hand stroked the crystal stone back and forth: "It was still hot just now, why did it suddenly become cold?"
