The people who lived in this area seemed to like the water dungeon very much. It was as if they did not have such a place to keep hostages and captives in. It was not a real camp. In fact, this was very normal. Normal cages could not hold people who were powerful and threatening, and they could not deplete the prisoner's physical strength and energy.
This place could not be used as a dungeon. The special structure of the land meant that if this place was used as a dungeon, it was likely to collapse. If there was a hostage who was important and could not be killed in the dungeon, this person could be buried alive if the dungeon collapsed. The result was self-evident.
That was why everyone liked to use the water dungeon to keep hostages and captives. It could slowly deplete the prisoner's physical strength and ensure the prisoner's safety. It was definitely their first choice.
After receiving this news, Han Zhan was not in a hurry to leave. Since he had already sneaked in, he should find the location of the water dungeon before leaving. Otherwise, even if he came in later to rescue, he would need to find the water dungeon again. There would be more people, and the chances of his target being exposed would be higher. It was safer for him to find it himself.
After Uncle Xiang's three subordinates left, Han Zhan continued to sneak in. According to his experience, it was not difficult for him to determine the approximate location of the water dungeon. Now he had to worry about how many people were guarding the water dungeon and how he could avoid it.
With an observant attitude, Han Zhan began to look for the water dungeon. When he noticed the location, he was more or less surprised. After he determined the location of the water dungeon, he found that there was no one guarding it. There were so many night patrols in the base, but none of them had any intention of patrolling the water dungeon.
This situation made Han Zhan a little confused. However, the more it was like this, the more careful Han Zhan knew that no one could guarantee that there would not be a trap. After the second wave of patrols passed by, Han Zhan moved. His figure was hidden in the darkness. When he came to the water dungeon, he realized why there was no one guarding it.
The stench of a crocodile entered Han Zhan's nose. Han Zhan was quite shocked. This guy actually used a crocodile to guard the water prison for him. No wonder he needed someone to guard it. Crocodiles were much more vigilant than people.
The crocodiles in the natural environment might not have the bad breath of the crocodiles here because there was a bird called the Thousand Swallow Bird in the natural environment. It was a very small bird with a slender mouth. It was a bird that cleaned the crocodiles' mouths. It was also called the Toothpick Bird, or some people called it the Crocodile Bird.
As soon as the crocodile ate, pieces of meat would be stuck between its teeth, slowly rotting and giving birth to maggots. Qianyao walked back and forth between the crocodile's sparse teeth, picking its teeth, catching maggots, and serving the crocodile comfortably. Even if the crocodile was asleep, as long as Qianyao came to its mouth and flapped its wings a few times, the crocodile would automatically open its mouth and let the bird fly in.
This would definitely reduce the number of crocodiles suffering from oral diseases. However, the crocodiles that were out of the natural environment were not so lucky. Qianyao did not have the guts to come to a circle full of people to help the two crocodiles in the water prison pick their teeth. Therefore, the two crocodiles' mouths were much worse than those in the natural environment.
Han Zhan quietly observed for a while. He really admired the person who designed this water prison. The water prison for the guards and the water prison for the crocodiles were separated by iron bars. Perhaps it would only take a finger to gently touch the mechanism to let the two crocodiles with bad breath eat their fill.
Speaking of which, Han Zhan's stealth ability was really amazing. He had already come to the side of the water prison, but Lin Ge and Wen Xiao in the water prison still did not notice him at all.
In order to attract the two's attention without disturbing the two crocodiles, Han Zhan picked up a stone the size of a pill and threw it into the water.
Although the sound was very subtle, it still alerted the two people in the water prison in an instant. Wen Xiao stared at the darkness without blinking. The silhouette of the figure was very clear. Lin Ge no longer floated on the water to sleep. He did not want to die in his sleep.
Right now, their bodies were abnormally cold. If it were not for their extraordinary physiques and ability to adapt to the environment, they probably would not have been able to withstand this torture.
"I am Black Dragon." Han Zhan said in a voice that was almost inaudible. "You don't need to answer me. You just need to know that we will save you immediately."
Lin Ge was so excited that he wanted to do a synchronized swim! Wasn't this too fast?! Brother Yun was indeed Brother Yun. This efficiency was completely beyond their imagination! Wen Xiao was so excited that he did not know what to do. It was too unbelievable. Everything had changed too quickly.
"I came in first to scout. Boss and the brothers are all outside." Han Zhan continued to lower his voice. "You guys should be ready at any time."
"How did you know we were locked in here?" Wen Xiao still asked the question in his heart.
Han Zhan smiled faintly in the darkness. "Wen Xiao, you're still so cautious. You don't even dare to confirm my voice? I knew you were here. I heard it when I snuck in. If you still don't believe that I am Black Dragon, I can tell you a few embarrassing things that only you and I know. "
After all, Wen Xiao had not heard Han Zhan's voice for many years, so he wanted to confirm it. Now that he heard Han Zhan say this, what else did he have to doubt?
Lin Ge also said with certainty, "Brother Han Zhan's voice is so special. You even doubt that?"
"I just want to confirm it," Wen Xiao said. He suddenly thought of something to remind Han Zhan. "We won't be saved that easily. The lock of this water prison is connected to the underwater iron bars. Other than the only key to open it, any external force will cause the underwater iron bars to open. The crocodiles will swim directly over."
"You mean to say that humans and crocodiles are in the same cage?" Han Zhan sucked in a breath of cold air. "I didn't expect the person who designed this water prison to be even more abnormal than I thought. There is even a mechanism."
Lin Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Brother Han Zhan, you should quickly discuss with my brother and think of a way to get us out of here. This stench has been suffocating me all night. I can't help but vomit."
Han Zhan frowned. "There is only one key to this lock? Where is the key? "
"The key is on the mercenary group's leader, Uncle Xiang." Han Zhan said. "I dare say that he will definitely carry this key with him."
"Wen Xiao, what is the point of saying this? Is this any different from saying that there is no key to this lock? " Lin Ge said. "That old fox carries the key with him. Who among us has the ability to take the key from him? It will definitely disturb him! "
Wen Xiao also knew this, but this was the truth. That was the only key.
"If we disturb that old fox, he will definitely let the crocodiles out for us to play with. Even with my current physical strength, I can't guarantee that I can play with such a big beast for long. How long do you think you can last?" Lin Ge said. "If we can't get out, we will be bitten half to death by the crocodiles. If we get out, we will be half crippled. "
Han Zhan comforted Lin Ge. "Don't worry. There is always a way out. We will definitely find a way to solve this problem. Don't worry. Calm down. We will come to save you soon. "
"We will. We will definitely wait for your rescue before we act." Wen Xiao said seriously.
"If you don't wait for our rescue, you won't be able to get out." Lin Ge said. "You should be like me. Rest well."
At this time, the sound of footsteps came from afar.
"The patrol team is here. I will leave now. You must wait for us." Han Zhan didn't wait for the two to respond and left in a hurry. His figure once again fell into the darkness. No one noticed his appearance or existence. He was like a ghost in the night, coming and going without a trace.
Han Zhan was also very careful on his way out of the base. If he was discovered, then all his previous efforts would be wasted. Xu Yun and the others outside the base were patiently waiting for Han Zhan to return. As long as there were no strange sounds in the base, it meant that Han Zhan hadn't been exposed.
In the middle of the night, the mercenary base was terrifyingly quiet. Other than the footsteps of the patrol team, no other sounds could be heard. It was as if everyone was asleep, but also as if everyone was deliberately hiding their breathing, waiting for the appearance of their prey.
This kind of feeling really made people feel very uncomfortable and very scary.
