Chapter 1024: Giant Toad

Once the three beauties put on their clothes,

they snapped their fingers and said to Zhao Rong:

“Brother Zhao Rong, we can continue the journey now…”

Zhao Rong turned around and looked at the three beauties, appearing like water lilies, he felt they were truly beautiful.

Just as Zhao Rong and the three beauties started to walk forward,

they heard the assistant shouting loudly from behind, saying:

“Brother Zhao Rong, Miss Lili, Miss Yu Lan, Miss Xuelian, don’t leave me behind…”

At this moment, the three beauties remembered that they had blindfolded the assistant and tied him to a big rock.

Miss Lili approached the assistant and said:

“Assistant, you performed quite well this time, you didn’t peek at us three beauties…”

Yu Lan untied the assistant’s hands and praised him, saying:

“To be a man, one must be a gentleman, only then can you win the favor of women…”

Xuelian even said to the assistant:

“Assistant, a man like Brother Zhao Rong is the type we women like, so in the future, if you want to win women’s favor, you need to learn to become a man like Brother Zhao Rong…”

At this time, Zhao Rong suddenly took a step forward and said to the three beauties and the assistant:

“No good, there’s a water monster in this underground dark river, everyone prepare for combat…”

Upon hearing about the water monster, Miss Lili froze,

she looked at Zhao Rong and said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, didn’t you say there were no signs of life in this underground dark river? Why is there suddenly a water monster now…”

Zhao Rong told Miss Lili, saying:

“This water monster might not belong to the current time period, but traveled here through a time tunnel from some past era…”

Listening to Zhao Rong, Yu Lan felt it was amazing and said:

“Brother, is such a thing possible, I’m curious to see what this ancient time-traveling water monster looks like…”

Xuelian held a torch in her hand, and she shone it into the water, saying:

“Water monster, if you have the guts, come out and let us see your true form…”

The assistant, nervous, said:

“Why does our team always encounter various monsters every time, it’s really strange…”

At this moment, the calm water in the distance suddenly began to ripple.

Seeing the waves in the water, Miss Lili said in surprise:

“Brother Zhao Rong, look, the so-called water monster is swimming towards us…”

Yu Lan widened her eyes, carefully observing the shadow in the water, then said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, why do I feel that the water monster is a prehistoric giant crocodile…”

Xuelian shook her head and said:

“No, it can’t be a prehistoric giant crocodile, it’s surely a prehistoric giant snake…”

The assistant remembered a Hollywood movie he watched as a child, “Killer Crocodile Pond”.

The assistant, extremely frightened, said:

“Regardless of whether that monster is a giant crocodile or a giant snake, both are extremely deadly, we should hurry and escape now…”

Zhao Rong grabbed the assistant who was preparing to run and said to him:

“Assistant, whatever you do, don’t think about escaping, in this dark cave, fleeing means certain death, now, if we want to survive, we have to fight the water monster in front of us and kill it, that’s the only way we’ll make it out alive…”

Miss Lili agreed with what Zhao Rong said, she nodded and said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, you’re absolutely right, when meeting on a narrow path, the brave will win, it’s either you die, or I live…”

Yu Lan took out a kukri from her backpack,

she readied herself for battle and said:

“No matter what kind of water monster it is, as long as it swims over, I’ll use my kukri to cut it down…”

Xuelian even pulled out a gun, pointed it at the water, and said:

“I refuse to believe this water monster can escape my bullets…”

Just as everyone was preparing to confront the water monster,

suddenly, the water monster surfaced not far away.

Seeing the water monster, everyone was stunned.

Miss Lili, incredibly frightened, said:

“Oh my god, that’s not a water monster, it’s clearly a giant toad…”

Yu Lan, finding it inconceivable, said:

“I can’t understand how such a large toad can exist in this dark cave, what does it feed on here? There isn’t a food chain here to support its existence…”

Xuelian, thinking imaginatively, said:

“I think there must be giant insects in the cave, otherwise, this giant toad wouldn’t have grown so big and fat…”

The assistant, terrified, said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, please think of a way to kill this giant toad in front of us…”

At this moment, Zhao Rong told everyone that this water monster isn’t a toad, but a Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia…

Hearing it was a Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia, Miss Lili furrowed her brows and said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, are you joking? How could a Shennongjia water monster end up in this cave?”

Yu Lan had once seen a documentary on television about the Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia,

she said:

“Brother Zhao Rong, I know about the Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia, because I’ve seen a show introducing this kind of water monster…”

Xuelian quickly asked Yu Lan, saying:

“Yu Lan, since you’re familiar with the Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia, please tell us more about the relevant information regarding the Changtan Lake Monster…”

Yu Lan spoke eloquently, saying:

“I remember, the TV program interviewed a witness… The witness said that every year from June to August, this monster would surface… It would spew out a water column several meters high from its mouth, followed by a burst of green smoke… Moreover, its appearance was often accompanied by heavy rain… Legend says this water monster resembles a huge toad, grayish-white in color and, when it sees food, it opens its gaping maw to devour everything…”

Listening to Yu Lan, the assistant, incredibly frightened, said:

“Oh my gosh, Yu Lan, you’re absolutely right, the monster not far away is really the Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia… Look, the way it opens its gaping maw really seems as though it’s going to devour everything…”

Zhao Rong furrowed his brows and said:

“Why do I feel that the Changtan Lake Monster from Shennongjia is just a mutated toad…”

Miss Lili, beside him, said nervously:

“Brother Zhao Rong, no matter whether the water monster in front of us is a toad or a mutated toad, you must find a way to eliminate this water monster…”

Yu Lan even urged Zhao Rong, saying:

“Brother Zhao Rong, you must act quickly, otherwise, when the toad’s tongue pops out, it will definitely catch one of us five and swallow them…”

At this moment, Zhao Rong suddenly took out an isotope detector, saying:

“Miss Lili, Yu Lan, Xuelian, assistant, why do I feel that the toad in front of us isn’t a modern-day water monster but an ancient one…”

After saying this, Zhao Rong used the isotope detector to examine the water monster in front of them.

Then, after Zhao Rong’s isotope detector examined the carbon elements carried by the toad,

he was astonished to discover that the toad before them came from over 2000 years ago during the Qin Dynasty…
