We often make a decision when our head is hot, and when our head cools down, we begin to regret that decision.
This is the principle of expanding when hot and shrinking when cold. The textbook describes this phenomenon as' expansion when hot and contraction when cold '.
Cold!
The ice penetrated the heart, the bone-piercing cold.
The moment Li Muyang's head plunged into the cold pond, he felt as if his scalp was about to explode, as if ten thousand silver needles were pricking his head.
His body felt like it was being cut by a knife, like it was being sliced into pieces.
The blood in his body froze, no longer circulating, and no longer providing him with heat and vitality.
It was like a frozen dead fish, unable to struggle and unable to move at all.
"Damn it." Li Muyang cursed in his heart. "Why did I jump down?"
Li Muyang is a typical 'expansion when hot and contraction when cold' type of personality. When he was enveloped by the pool of ice water, his brain became sober and he finally regained his consciousness — — For a split second, he felt his consciousness was being controlled by something powerful, muddle-headed, completely unaware of what he had done.
When he heard that Lu Qiji may have been buried at the bottom of the pond, Li Muyang was heartbroken. It was as if a piece of his heart had been dug out. He thought that no matter what, he must save her, even if he could not save her, he must bring back her body, if he could not bring back her body then he must bring back the body of the toad — —
He was afraid that the final result would be someone else jumping down and bringing his body back.
Li Muyang began to regret.
Even with the strength of Lin Canghai and Chu Xun, after entering the cold pond, they did not gain any advantage. They were chased around by the three-eyed ice toad and finally used a trick to lure it out for a decisive battle. Although he did not know what Lu Qiji's cultivation level was, but from her arrogant attitude that she did not put anyone in her eyes — — she should be stronger than him, right?
With his weak martial arts that he had just built his foundation, wouldn't jumping into the cold pond be a dead end for him?
It wasn't until this moment that Li Muyang began to feel fear.
Not only fear, but fear like a snake or scorpion. Besides, that Three-eyed Ice Toad, which had cultivated for a thousand years, was more powerful than all the snakes and scorpions he had ever seen.
He had seen the huge mouth of the Three-eyed Ice Toad. If it silently swam behind him and swallowed him in one gulp, he would not have any ability to resist.
"For a tsundere woman, for a tsundere woman who keeps framing me — -Why would I do such a stupid thing?"
"What does her death have to do with me? Why would I want to perish together with her, people who don't know would think there's something going on between us — — How bad would my reputation be after death, it's hard to accept — — "
----
Because of the fear of the unknown, Li Muyang began to let his imagination run wild.
Anyway, he couldn't do anything now. His body felt like it was bound by ice water.
Li Muyang suddenly thought of something, he could still think — -
He could think, and his thoughts were quite clear.
This proved that his body had not begun to weaken, and he could still maintain his independent thoughts and consciousness.
"Why did this happen?" Li Muyang could not understand.
He opened his eyes and scanned his surroundings. Just as Lin Canghai said, the bottom of the pool was pitch-black, as if he was immersed in a huge ink pool. The underwater world was not transparent at all.
What's more, as soon as he opened his eyes, a portion of the ten thousand sharp needles pierced his eyeballs — —
At this moment, every drop of water could be a needle that pierced his eyeballs.
Just by opening his eyes slightly, he felt the pain as if his eyeballs were dug out.
He hurriedly closed his eyes in pain.
"My body can't move, my eyes can't see, it seems that only death awaits me — —" Li Muyang thought to himself.
Everyone has a strong desire to survive. Li Muyang did not want to die like this, he did not want people to 'misunderstand' that he had an affair with Lu Qiji, so he committed suicide for love. Therefore, he must live.
He moved his fingers.
He could move his fingers.
"Very good." Li Muyang encouraged himself.
He clenched his fists again. His fists could also be moved.
"Great." Li Muyang was extremely excited. He felt his body gradually adapting to the temperature underwater.
When his arms could move freely, he swam desperately — — and then leave this damn place.
Anyway, the ancients said: for a gentleman to take revenge, a hundred years is not too late.
His body was lying in the middle of the pool, unable to dive down, nor could he float up.
However, he could not turn around.
He was waiting for his body to recover, or waiting for the toad's body to recover. After all, it was attacked by Lin Canghai and Chu Xun, it was most likely injured.
"Hu — —"
The water rippled.
Li Muyang felt his body gently drifting along with the water ripples.
His body contracted, eager to shrink into a tiny water bug. His heart pounded so hard that it almost squeezed out of his throat.
"Hu — —"
His body rippled more intensely, and the sound that made people despair to death was getting closer.
"Dead. Dead. This time I'm really going to die — — "
Although it was difficult for Li Muyang to turn around, and even difficult to open his eyes.
However, he knew very well that the monster was hiding behind him.
He could not see its body, but he could feel its breath.
Li Muyang imagined that the thing might have opened its bloody mouth at him — —
He was thinking too much!
The toad was indeed hiding behind him, its three ugly and scarlet eyes were staring unblinkingly at his buttocks.
When the toad saw that someone dared to come to its territory and provoke it, it was furious. It flew into a rage and opened its mouth, wanting to tear him apart and eat him.
However, when it was about to do so, it realised something was not quite right — —
What was wrong with it?
It found that it could not open its mouth.
In other words, it didn't know if it would eat his legs or his butt first, or if it would turn around and scare him, watch a funny show, and then eat his whole body in one bite.
Not only could it not open its mouth, it did not even have the courage to come close, as if that person was not a human, but a dangerous race, as if it had met the natural enemy of the toad royal family — — In the eyes of the toad, Li Muyang's entire body was emitting an evil aura that said 'don't provoke me, I'm not someone to be trifled with.'
However, he was indeed a human. He looked exactly the same as those guys that he chased and had to hide from him.
Although he was uglier, he did not even have an eye. But he had three eyes, he was much more handsome and mighty than him.
The three-eyed ice toad blinked its huge three eyes, its ugly head pondering over and over again.
Its mood also grew angrier and angrier, constantly swimming back and forth behind Li Muyang.
It was hesitant, unable to make up its mind.
Eat him in one bite, but do not have the courage.
Run away, but have no backbone.
"Gua gua gua — —" The three-eyed ice toad let out a strange cry, and could not help cursing in the language of the toad clan: "What the hell is this thing?"
