    After a day and night of fasting, Pooh was tired and weak. She endured waves of dizziness and walked downstairs. The apprentices from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs passed her like a gust of wind and ran downstairs.  Pooh was probably the last one to see the excitement. At the corner from the second floor to the first floor, she heard the noise downstairs and the sound of rushing water - a very loud sound of water waves.  She was holding on to the wall in a daze, not daring to go down the stairs.  "My child, are you okay?" The businessman's gentle voice came from behind.  "Hello, I'm fine." Pooh forced a smile, "What happened?" The businessman squatted down so that their eyes were at the same height.  "The first floor is flooded, which is really strange. But this is a song tower, and there will be an explanation for all the weird things. Maybe the tower owner is preparing to give everyone a surprise, or a new teaching method. Our thoughts on the tower owner  He knows even less than he knows about magic." Pooh was stunned, and he thought of Codd.  The businessman knelt down and looked into the girl's eyes. "How long has it been since you last eaten?" He groped in his pocket.  "The instructor said" Holding Pooh's cold little hand, "When I was a child, I worked as an apprentice in a pastry shop. The stingy proprietress only provided me with two meals a day, which were bean soup so thin that I could see my face. At that time, I worked as an apprentice in a pastry shop every day.  They were all thinking that they would either starve to death by this evil bitch or be smarter No, don't look like a silly kid, I didn't steal anything, that's not businessman behavior. I secretly collected leftover flour and rotting raisins.  While no one was paying attention, I kneaded the pancakes, spread them with butter, and stuffed them into the oven. I secretly studied the ingredients while making muffins, and occasionally adjusted the ingredients in the store to make the pancakes more delicious. After half a year, I left the store.  The taste of the pancake has dropped so much that the boss thought his wife was cutting corners and beat her to death. "Then he took out a large piece of fat waffle and put it in Pooh's hand.  "So hunger is always temporary. You must learn to be kind to yourself, even secretly." He smiled warmly and warmly, making Pooh's hands and heart warm.  "Why are you telling me this? Other apprentices are more qualified to share your experience." "Because among these twenty children, only you are the most special." The businessman said sincerely, pointing to the muffin, "  Our secret, okay?" "Okay!" Pooh put it in his pocket carefully.  "Don't you go down and watch the excitement?" The businessman stood up and shrugged, "If I have to say what life experience I have gained from doing business for so many years, it is to watch the excitement from a distance." The long spiral staircase from the second floor to the first floor is divided into two sections.  In the middle, there is a circular corridor built against the inner wall of the song tower. It is half a floor and overlooks the banquet hall.  Pooh went down to the corridor and exclaimed, "What a huge lake!"  The hall used to be like an overflowing water bottle, with rippling waves covering the corridor floor, dance floor, band stage, stone pillars with five people hugging each other, gorgeous tapestries from foreign countries, all luxurious things were drowned.  What's even more spectacular is that a large number of long hardwood tables, armchairs, grains and other debris are floating on the water, making it extremely turbid.  The water flow pushed countless floating objects and collided with the tower wall, making a clanging sound.  She was surprised for a while before she realized that except for the three instructors, the entire tower was in the corridor.  The stairs further down the corridor were flooded, and the apprentices chattered together, holding on to the fence and looking at the water, each one more excited than the other.  "Pooh, have you seen Codd?" The girl shook her head.  "He really did it! The hall and the underground floors were completely soaked, and all the food and supplies were destroyed. The tower master will pluck out his skin!" "What did he do?" "How would I know." Apprentices  He hurriedly denied it, for fear of having anything to do with himself.  On the other side, three knights picked up lettuce and cabbage in the water with their swords. The black-haired man frowned and said: "The water is very clear, but where did it come from?" Another knight said: "After such a big thing, why is the tower owner still here?"  Not showing up? General, what do you think?" The serious-looking general stared at the water and said, "The tower owner has taken measures." He pointed to the water mark on the wall, "The water line has stopped rising and the source has been cut off.  The problem is not how the water comes, but how it goes. " "Let the sword spider move and let the water out from the gate." The general shook his head: "This tower was built with military purposes in mind.  The side windows are all locked, and the water cannot escape. If the sword spider moves, the violent water will flow down the door and destroy the servants' house outside. There will be many tourists at the door to witness the embarrassment inside the tower. " "What about the sewers.  "Sewers" The general frowned, "An apprentice asked me for a map of the water channels in the tower before. Could it be" Pooh was listening with his ears propped up, and a sharp voice came from the direction of the stairs, "?Get out of my way, little devils, don't step on my nightgown.  "Mrs. Sindia walked down the stairs and looked at the vast ocean. She was also surprised. She walked towards the general and the knights, "What is this situation?  The black-haired knight stepped forward and said, "The water from an unknown source flooded the lower floors of the song tower. Maybe it was an accident, maybe it was sabotaged by foreign spies."  " "Oh my God!  "Mrs. Sindia covered her mouth. The brown-haired one then pushed forward and pushed away her companions. "The assassin organization in the south claiming to be the Shadow Cult is destroying everywhere. It is said that many big figures who stopped their expansion have been assassinated. Sneaking into the song tower is not a problem.  strangeness.  " Mrs. Sindia's eyes widened: "That doesn't mean" The black-haired and brown-haired knights raised their voices almost at the same time: "We will protect you!  I swear by my sword, those despicable shadow rats" "That means I won't be able to eat breakfast today!  "There was silence. "If it wasn't inappropriate, Pooh would have laughed out loud. She saw the general turning his head in disgust, and the silver-haired knight pulled away the two embarrassed companions, "If you don't mind, I kept some dry food."  " "Thank you for your kindness. I'd better go and look through the cookies in the room.  "She had no interest in spies or the water. She pulled up her skirt and walked back on tiptoes to avoid the water stains on the corridor. The knights paid attention to the ladies and spies, and the artist cared about his breakfast and nightgown. He seemed to have no interest in it.  Someone noticed that a boy named Corder disappeared. Winnie was looking at the water a little absentmindedly. Should she report to the tower owner? At this time, she noticed a rather large long table with low legs, spinning violently.  It hit the tower wall, causing waves to wet her shoes. Pooh was stunned for a few seconds, took a breath, stepped back a few steps and bumped into the black-haired knight's leg. She said: "  There is something in the water.  "The knight and his companions were arguing about the rumors of shadow assassins and ignored her. The girl raised her voice and shouted: "There are living things in the water!  " Everyone looked at each other, wondering why she was crazy. The general was the first to react: "If the source is disconnected, then there should not be such big waves anymore, and there are things swimming under the water.  Everyone, go upstairs!  "The last sound was like an order, with a stern tone. There was a commotion, and more than twenty children crowded the passage. The three knights spontaneously maintained order and let the apprentices go upstairs first. "Look.  "The water surface stirred violently, and a thick water line moved quickly towards everyone. All floating objects along the way were knocked away at the slightest touch. "Go up, go up, go up!"  ¡± Everyone was panicking, and Pooh was pushed back. At this time, she suddenly understood what the businessman said, how wise it is to watch the excitement from a distance. The girl suddenly flew up, at least she felt so. The corridor under her feet arched,  Cracked, shattered, she realized that something was breaking through the corridor under the water. As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, the sound of cracking stones, screams and roars filled her ears. She reached out to grab it as it fell.  There was a broken corridor, and the water touched her toes. Several apprentices on the stairs tried to pull her, but their hands were not long enough. The only other adults in the stairwell besides the apprentices were the businessmen. The other adults were held on by the corridor.  The protruding stone slab felt so painful that it was no longer her own. Her heart beat violently, and she took a deep breath and tried to climb up. Then, with a scream, the stone slab broke and she fell.  For a moment, time seemed to slow down, and Pooh's senses and thinking seemed to extend a hundred times. She noticed the panic on every face. The first one to move was the businessman with a warm smile, who stood in the safest position.  , did not come to rescue her or evacuate the apprentices on the stairs, and simply turned around and ran away. "I'll contact the tower master" In the corridor, the female artist was half-paralyzed on the ground, stunned; the three knights were anxious and angry, with black hair.  The one who was the most impulsive almost rushed over to catch her, and his companion grabbed the black-haired knight's belt; the general's expression was stern, focusing on the water behind Pooh, and his creepy intuition told Pooh that the thing was in her  Waiting in the water behind her. The cold water brought back her distracted thoughts. She took a big mouthful and swung her limbs twitchingly. Then a strong current passed by her, and a huge shadow appeared.  It flashed out of the corner of her eye. Pooh came up to the surface and choked. Fear and drowning forced her to inhale more water, and then she sank again. For a moment, she saw it, its blue-gray skin and underwater background were indistinguishable.  , a circle of huge spikes, hundreds of sharp teeth, and smooth, terrifying eyes. Pooh stared blankly at it as it swam closer with its huge mouth open.  He took her out of the water by the back of her neck and almost suffocated her. The black-haired knight lay on the stone slab and leaned out to fish out the girl.??The companion held his legs tightly.  Then the shadow rose up and made a loud sound of water breaking. The black-haired knight roared and raised his arms at an incredible angle to throw the girl behind him.  In front of him was a mouth that could swallow him whole. There were three rows of triangular-shaped sharp teeth in the upper and lower jaws. You could also see the dense folds in the mouth.  "Click!"
