Chapter 847: Chapter 846: Unexpectedly, He Also Has Such a Day

"Save me, Chu Qianli, save me, sir, sir save me!"

The water was about to reach Yu Linglong’s neck.

Because she was sitting on the ground, she was the first one to be submerged.

Now, just by opening her mouth, the water would pour in as if trying to flood her lungs.

Yu Linglong kept screaming pitifully, calling for help.

Chu Qianli and Feng Dingchu exchanged looks.

To save or not to save?

Saving a life is more virtuous than building a seven-story pagoda.

But she had always harmed others, a bad person; rescuing a bad person might lead to even more good people being harmed by her in the future.

So perhaps not saving her would be best?

To save her would be to become an accomplice to this bad person!

I also felt this made sense.

So then...

Mmm...

Do not save.

Save ourselves first!

Both turned around at the same time.

On this point, Chu Qianli felt that this hermit-like expert shared a temperament similar to her own.

Deciding not to save someone did not weigh heavily on her conscience.

It may be cruel to ignore someone’s death, but it all depended on who it was.

They turned around and continued searching for the exit.

"Save me, save... ugh... gurgle gurgle..."

Soon, Yu Linglong’s voice could no longer be heard.

The water had risen to the level of Chu Qianli’s heart and gradually reached her neck.

Just as the water was about to flood her mouth, Chu Qianli felt her hand being released.

She was surprised and looked back to see that her waist had suddenly tightened, and Feng Dingchu had lifted her, so she was sitting on his shoulders.

"Sir..."

She could have saved herself; she had a way.

But this sir seemed somewhat afraid of water.

In the face of life and death, a person’s true character and moral fiber become apparent.

He was indeed a good person!

Feng Dingchu said nothing; he was much taller than Chu Qianli, probably about 188 centimeters.

With Chu Qianli sitting on his shoulders, her elevation suddenly increased.

Sitting higher allows one to see farther, and Chu Qianli suddenly whispered, "There’s a draft!"

A draft! That meant there had to be an entrance or exit; where else would the draft be coming from?

Feng Dingchu looked up at her; the water level had now reached his chest, and soon he too would be submerged.

Chu Qianli urged, "I feel a draft, wait... it seems... it seems to be on our right side."

Feng Dingchu immediately carried her in that direction.

The draft was indeed coming from the right, but the exit was so high!

The water level continued to rise, now reaching Feng Dingchu’s neck.

Too fast!

Before Chu Qianli could think of a way out, the water reached Feng Dingchu’s mouth.

She could clearly feel Feng Dingchu’s tall body stiffen with tension.

This hermit-like expert, he couldn’t swim! He was afraid of water!

Indeed, Feng Dingchu did not know how to swim and didn’t know how to hold his breath underwater.

The water was rising too quickly and churning; he was already struggling to breathe.

He could only try to hold Chu Qianli up, to prolong her chances of survival.

He had attempted to climb along the stone walls, but they were too slick, and his subconscious fear of water in combination with his inability to summon his energy meant he was completely at a loss.

The water flooded into his mouth and nose, choking him so he couldn’t breathe at all.

So much for being a lofty hermit; he hadn’t expected to meet his end like this.

Just before losing consciousness, Feng Dingchu still raised his hand, pushing Chu Qianli up as far as he could.

The exit had been found, but it was too high, unreachable for her.

Unless she was an excellent swimmer, able to stay underwater until the water rose to that height, perhaps then she could escape.

But that was not something Feng Dingchu could anticipate.

Because he had become completely powerless due to the lack of oxygen.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Dingchu’s arm holding Chu Qianli finally went limp.

His tall figure also drifted down weightlessly...
