Seeing the box of gold ingots by the underground river, we could basically conclude that the thick-browed, big-eyed rat hadn't lied. Yang Guo had indeed traveled this path, but something must have happened, as he had abandoned this box of gold.

As for where he was now, that was anyone's guess.

Just as the few of us were puzzled, I suddenly heard the sound of splashing water.

Instinctively, I looked towards the underground river. Just now, the surface of the river was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything. The light from my headlamp shone on the water, and I immediately spotted a figure swimming deeper into the underground river!

"Someone's in the river!"

I shouted quickly.

"Look, someone's in the river!"

Old Wei made a judgment almost immediately, shouting, "It must be Yang Guo! Quick, grab him!"

Hearing Old Wei's shout, I didn't hesitate to take off my shirt and dive into the water, swimming towards the figure ahead.

Xiao Liang stood on the shore and shouted, "Chen Rongsheng, be careful! I'll come help you!"

After speaking, she also planned to jump into the underground river.

I quickly called out to Old Wei, "Old Wei! Stop Xiao Liang, don't let her come down! I'm enough!"

I knew that Xiao Liang had been entangled by the man-eating tree and injected with quite a bit of micro-toxins. If she rashly went into the water, she might encounter danger.

Old Wei quickly grabbed Xiao Liang and said, "Little Chen is right, don't go down."

Xiao Liang had no choice but to shout loudly at me, "Be careful!"

I responded and immediately started chasing forward. As long as I was in the water, I wasn't afraid of anything. Even if I was facing more than four or five tomb raiders, I would be a match for them, let alone a one-armed Yang Guo.

However, thinking of this, I suddenly froze.

That's not right!

Yang Guo is one-armed!

How could he be in the river?

The underground river's current is so turbulent that even someone with two arms might not be able to handle it, let alone a one-armed cripple!

The person ahead is probably not Yang Guo!

I'm afraid I'm chasing the wrong person.

But since I was already in the water, I didn't go back. Without another word, I sped up and chased forward.

After swimming for about ten meters, I was very close to the figure ahead. At this point, I realized that the figure ahead was dressed in white, with a graceful figure and long black hair spread out on the surface of the water. How could she be Yang Guo? She was clearly the white-robed fairy who had saved me!

"It's her? Why is she in the underground river?"

I only felt that things were getting stranger and stranger. I couldn't understand the white-robed fairy's intentions at all.

Who exactly is she?

What exactly is she trying to do here?

If it were before, my first reaction upon seeing the white-robed fairy would definitely be to run away. After all, the white-robed fairy killed without batting an eye and was simply a female demon.

But last time in the Duck River ancient tomb, the white-robed fairy spared Uncle Mei's life.

This time under the man-eating tree, the white-robed fairy even saved so many of our lives with flying knives. I always felt that she had no malice towards us, at least not enough to want our lives.

Having figured this out, my courage grew, and seeing the white-robed fairy right in front of me, I steeled my heart and chased after her.

I want to ask her where Little Mei is.

But just as I was about to approach the white-robed fairy, she suddenly took a deep breath on the surface of the water, and then plunged into the water, diving into the depths of the underground river.

I immediately imitated her, held my breath, and followed her underwater.

When it comes to swimming, I've never lost to anyone in my life, especially when it comes to holding my breath underwater. I've never seen anyone who can hold their breath longer than me, so I'm not worried at all. I followed the white-robed fairy all the way underwater.

The water in this underground river is quite clear. Because I'm wearing a waterproof headlamp, I can also see some of the scenery below.

Soon, I saw the white-robed fairy close to the bottom of the river. Her slender figure twisted in the water like a fish, and she turned in another direction.

I followed and chased after her, but froze in that instant.

I saw not far in front of the white-robed fairy, in the water of the underground river, there was actually a huge crystal coffin!

This crystal coffin was several times larger than the little imperial grandson's coffin in the main tomb chamber, and it was made of translucent crystal. Whether it was the shape or the scale, it was the most luxurious coffin I had ever seen!

This coffin was tightly wrapped with an iron chain as thick as an arm, so it could always maintain its original position without being washed away by the surging underground river. This iron chain was connected to the top of the tomb. I only glanced at it and immediately recognized it. This is the iron chain in the Dragon Locking Well!

Dragon Locking Well, Dragon Locking Well, the well is not locking a dragon, but a crystal coffin!

In that instant, everything became clear!

I finally knew where the bottom of the Dragon Locking Well led to, and I finally understood why the iron chain would tremble violently from time to time!

And because this coffin is made of crystal, I can vaguely see the remains inside!

With the cold light of the headlamp, I vaguely saw a black shadow lying in the coffin. It seemed to be a black skeleton, but because it was too far away, I couldn't see its true face clearly.

I couldn't help but wonder, who would be the owner of this crystal coffin?

Could he be the true owner of this ancient Shu tomb?

Also a monarch of the Boguan Dynasty?

Why did Yao Guangxiao lock him in this raging underground river with a Dragon Locking Well?

And what is the white-robed fairy here to do?

With a belly full of doubts, I held my breath and continued to watch. I saw the white-robed fairy swim towards the crystal coffin, and then suddenly take out a rusty key from her chest.

I then noticed that the iron chain wrapped around the crystal coffin was fitted with an iron lock the size of a human face. This key must be used to open this lock.

Sure enough, I saw the white-robed fairy insert the key into the iron lock, twist it hard, and open the iron lock. Then the iron chain wrapped around the crystal coffin spread out circle by circle, releasing the crystal coffin.

I was shocked and couldn't help but be stunned. "No way? Does the white-robed fairy want to pry open this coffin? Her and Wang's Boss's goal is the same, to steal the old corpse inside the coffin? What's wrong with these people? Why steal the tomb owner's remains?"

Just as I was full of doubts, the crystal coffin had successfully broken free from the iron lock and fell to the bottom of the river with a bang.

The white-robed fairy also swam towards the crystal coffin again.

I just wanted to get closer and ask her what she wanted to do, but at the moment the iron chain left the crystal coffin, I suddenly felt that the water flow in the underground river had become a lot stronger for no reason!

"Crap!"

Based on my many years of experience, I immediately realized that something big was about to happen. An extremely strong undercurrent suddenly poured into this river! I'm afraid it will sweep away both me and the white-robed fairy!

At the critical moment of life and death, I couldn't care less about the crystal coffin. Without another word, I swam to the surface of the water. I had to take a breath to ensure that nothing went wrong.

But before I could surface, a powerful undercurrent struck, suddenly making me lose my direction...
