Chapter 257 – Over There is a Lake (2/2)
Chen Changsheng had no response to his questions. Somewhat in a rush, he said, ”Regardless, I can go through. Just say if you can or can’t do.”
As men, even not fully matured men, nobody could say the words 'can’t'.
Zhexiu impassively replied, ”See you on the other side.”
With these words, he walked over to the edge of the waterfall and jumped without the slightest hesitation.
His figure quickly descended down the cliffside, dashing the waterfall into several jade-like strands.
Chen Changsheng could not help but be startled at this scene. He silently thought to himself, being so straightforward really catches one unawares.
Then he heard a boom.
A massive splash rose from the surface of the pool. Through the middle of the splash, the depths of the pool could be seen. This was a path along which Zhexiu had proceeded.
Chen Changsheng shook his head, took off his outer clothes and put them away. After making sure that the timing was right, he also leaped off the cliff.
As the wind blew against him, it was broken to pieces. As the water splashed up, it was broken into pieces. The whistling sound did not have time to reach his ears before it was thrown behind him.
He became faster and faster, so that in but a moment, he had already reached the surface of the pool.
There was no sound, only the distinct impact as he struck the surface and the resulting numbness in his face and neck.
After a moment, he began to feel the pressure and wetness of the water.
Assisted by the power of his descent, his body continued downwards, piercing through layer upon layer of obstruction.
The pressure of the water continued to increase. Compared to the depth that he had traveled, the pressure was much greater than what he had imagined, but it was still within the range that he could withstand.
Only now did he open his eyes and looked in front him, or to put it another way, he could see Zhexiu's figure below him.
Zhexiu was kicking his legs. It seemed that he was not having any problems.
Afterwards, he looked further past Zhexiu and could faintly make out a point of light.
In a short time, he and Zhexiu had arrived at the location of the point of light, but they found no sign of the cave that the Black Dragon had mentioned.
However, at this point, they had no other option. They could only use the remainder of the falling force to continue swimming downwards. After this force had gradually been used up, they began to use their hands to swim through the water.
After swimming for who knows how long, they suddenly realized that the pressure exerted by the water was gradually fading.
Then, they realized that the point of light was gradually growing larger, eventually engulfing their entire view.
Only then did they realize the true change.
They were not swimming down. They were swimming up.
Splash.
They finally managed to swim out.
They were still in the water.
They broke through the surface of the water.
This place was a placid lake. The lake was vast and the forest around it was verdant and lush. On the rocks of the shore grew all sorts of nameless flowers.
Right now, they were both in the center of the lake.
The depths of that pool was actually this lake.
The most miraculous thing was that when the bottom of the pool was connected to the lake, up and down were reversed, and heaven and earth exchanged positions.
Chen Changsheng and Zhexiu were truly shocked by this.
The scene they saw soon after made them even more shocked, so much so that their jaws were agape and they were at a loss for words.
In the middle of the lake was a rock.
It was right in front of them.
On the rock sat a woman.
The woman's face was charming and beautiful. It seemed that she had also just gotten out of the water. Her entire body was wet, and her pliable clothes pressed up tightly against her body, revealing her curves. Her mature and captivating body was completely exposed.
The extraordinarily beautiful woman was in the midst of straining the water out of her black hair.
Her actions were very gentle. Her body was very gentle. Her complexion was very gentle. Her gaze was very gentle.
She was like a just ripened fruit, like the mountain spirit which the shamans of the south offered sacrifices to or like the beauties pictured in the murals in the capital.
To young men, she was at her most captivating period, and this was the most captivating scene.
Chen Changsheng thought about what Zhexiu had said before, and he had absolutely no idea what to do.
On the other side of the cliff, there actually was a lake.
In the lake, there actually was a beautiful woman that had just finished taking a bath.
What did this mean?
