Since the school could not help, and the method of carrying diving equipment also could not be used, then what other method was there? Now that science and technology has developed to this stage, it seems that we can only use these two methods to find out the bottom of the lake.

"Shen Tuo, how about this? Our school's lake water doesn't look too deep, I've even seen workers fishing for algae on the artificial lake's shore in the summer, so we don't need to bring any equipment. We can just directly swim in and test the depth, otherwise, we'll be like headless flies trying to figure out a way, and we won't be able to determine whether it's suitable or not!"

"You mean, we can go in and test the depth of the water? If the water is too deep, we will immediately come back. If the water is not deep enough to drown us, we will not need equipment to directly search for the water!"

The more Shen Tuo said, the more excited he became, as if our method has already been put into practice.

Thinking that it is already late at night and there shouldn't be many people around the artificial lake, we stood up and prepared to charge out. However, just as we took two steps forward, our feet suddenly felt like we were stuck in place, unable to move at all.

I turned around and saw that it was indeed Zi Sang Ming's doing.

Zishan Ming was waving his hand and his five fingers moved nimbly as if he was controlling a puppet.

I glared at him. He immediately raised his eyebrows and released the spell on my body. Without saying anything further, I turned around and walked over to Zishan Ming's side and slapped his hand that was still controlling Shen Tuo.

"If you have something to say, just say it! "He's always messing with people!"

I turned away from him with my arms crossed across my chest.

At this moment, a stool was gently lifting a few centimeters off the ground. It was slightly swaying as it floated before me. I didn't say anything as I directly sat down.

"You guys don't understand. If a corpse can really be hidden underwater for so long without being discovered, then there must be another space under the water. This sort of space is not something that you can discover just by entering. Furthermore, if you were to really discover it, I believe that at that time, you wouldn't be able to come back. "

After Zi Sang Ming finished speaking, he went silent again.

Sang Ming denied our method and my heart was very upset. So I stood up again and said as I walked: "Then I'll take out the book and ask Zhao Xue if it's okay!"

Zishan Ming pulled me back once again, but he didn't use any magic this time and just grabbed my arm instead. My body tilted backwards and I crashed into his body.

"If all of you really want to go, This King has a way."

I was overjoyed. I slapped Zishan Ming's back and said, "If you have a way, why didn't you say so earlier!?" You only know how to keep people in suspense! "

Zishan Ming didn't care about it. He raised his head and said with a serious expression, "You're This King's wife, so This King naturally doesn't want you to take the risk."

After Zishan Ming said this, he lowered his head as if nothing had happened. However, my face suddenly flushed red. Even I could feel the burning sensation on my cheeks and didn't know what to do.

Zi Sang Ming seemed to ponder for a long time. Finally, he pulled me back onto my seat and looked at me seriously as he said, "Let's go tonight. This King will go with you."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Zi Sang Ming talked for a long time, but other than knowing that he was coming with us, we still didn't know anything else.

However, when I think about how he is seriously injured and has yet to recover from his injuries, I can't help but be worried.

"You and Shen Tuo are both injured. If you need to do anything, let me do it."

Zi Sang Ming looked at me and unwillingly nodded his head.

The sky darkened a bit more, I had already forgotten the day, so I didn't know what day it was, but tonight's moon was especially round. The dark blue sky had no stars, but the moon was round and bright.

I don't know why, but I had a bad premonition. Although we weren't completely sure that we would be able to find Zhao Xue's corpse and wish for death by tonight, I still had a feeling that our journey wouldn't go smoothly.

When the three of us arrived at the artificial lake, it was almost midnight. There was no one around the campus, and the moon had already moved directly above our heads. It scattered a faint red light over the lake, giving off an indescribably eerie aura.

Shen Tuo and I quietly waited for Zi Sang Ming to speak. Zi Sang Ming raised his head to look at the moon and frowned slightly.

After that, Zi Sang Ming didn't say anything. He waved his hand and a pearl appeared out of nowhere. The bead was extremely similar in size to the Energetic Ball in the TV series. It was transparent and emitted a faint blue light.

Zishan Ming looked at me and said gently, "This is Water Repelling Pearl. It can guarantee your freedom of breathing in the water, so there's no danger of Zhaoxue's power destroying the equipment."

With such a treasure in hand, I immediately became confident. I smiled confidently at Zishan Ming and took the Water Repelling Pearl from his hands.

It turned out that this thing was really like a powerful pill and needed to be consumed.

I opened my mouth wide and forced it into it. Initially, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to swallow it, but the moment it touched my tongue, it suddenly turned into a tasteless liquid and slid into my throat.

Shen Tuo seemed to be a little worried. With a frown, he continued to smoke his cigarette. When he saw that I was looking at him, he hurriedly shifted his gaze away.

I nodded at Zishan Ming and walked to the lake's edge. I slowly walked into the lake and only when I knew that the lake water had not reached my waist did I hold my breath. I stuck my head into the water and submerged my entire body in the water.

I shook my head in the water and tossed the hair on my face to the side. Afterwards, I took a light and tentative breath and discovered that Zishan Ming's Water Repelling Pearl was indeed mystical. Not only did I not choke, my breathing was not interrupted at all, it was no different from breathing on land.

To my even greater surprise, the Water-Repellent Pearl seemed to form a natural barrier around my body, blocking some of the murky water around me. I dived for a good distance, but even my clothes weren't wet.

What Zishan Ming said was right. The bottom of the lake is indeed not as deep as I saw it to be.

No, I should say, at the bottom of this lake, if an ordinary person were to step in, the water might just reach their waist. However, if someone were to dive in head on, they would realize that there was something else at the bottom of the lake.

This is the same logic as a barrier. In a certain plane at the bottom of the lake, it's as if there is a barrier. If we can't cross it, then our world will only be as deep as our waist.

I don't know how long I kept going downstream. Finally, I saw some water grasses floating along the current, which made me realize that perhaps, after crossing that barrier, this part of the water was no longer part of our school's artificial lake.

I reached out and grabbed a handful of seaweed. I pulled with my arm, and when I finally touched the bottom, my foot landed on the sand, feeling a little slippery.

However, just when I was looking around, I suddenly felt my arm tighten. I turned my head to look, only to see that the water grass I was grabbing had unexpectedly grown several times longer and was wrapping around my arm in a circle!

In addition, it didn't even coil around once before it used all its strength to tighten, just like a poisonous snake that was trying to suffocate its prey.

I suddenly realized, perhaps this water grass had the same intention as the poisonous snake!

I didn't enter the water often. At the bottom of the water, I was in a state of confusion, but the moment I encountered such a sudden situation, I panicked. My arms that were wrapped around the water grasses started to shake non-stop, attempting to shake them off.

However, these aquatic plants seemed to be able to expand and expand at will. If I pulled forward, the aquatic plants would instantly become thinner and extend forward under the effects of my strength. However, before long, I would be pulled back by the aquatic plants' recoil.

I played with the plants for a long time, but it was to no avail. I gradually stopped and tried to find another way.

I approached the water grass bit by bit. When I grabbed onto the water grass with one hand, I suddenly felt my neck tighten. It turned out that while I was distracted, the water grass had already quietly climbed up my neck!

I ruthlessly grabbed the water grass by its roots and pulled it upwards. I wanted to pull it up by its roots, but who knew that the water grass was so smooth. After using my strength, my hands actually slipped off the water grass.

I felt a tightening sensation on my neck. The water grass seemed to have taken advantage of this opportunity and tightened a bit. However, it was precisely due to the pulling force of the water grass that I didn't fly backwards.

With my previous experience, I stopped exerting myself blindly, and instead grabbed hold of the grass with one hand, while with the other I grabbed hold of it and twined it around my first hand several times.

I feel hungry. This aquatic plant is probably very stressful. It will automatically tighten the moment it comes into contact with something.

Because the moment I wrapped the water plant around my hand, it started to shrink by itself, until it formed a depression in my hand.

The water grasses around my neck were also tightening, and I could feel myself beginning to choke.

I clenched my teeth and took advantage of this opportunity to exert a bit more force, but before I could do anything, I pulled out the water grass by its roots. The water grass and leaves that were wrapped around my body seemed to suddenly wilt as they shrunk back into their original forms.

So the water grass didn't have a deep root. It looked like it had just taken root in the water. I couldn't figure out where it had gotten so much strength.

I randomly pulled the water grass off my body and casually threw it away. The water grass passed through the Water-Repellent Pearl's halo around my body and slipped into the water.
