Chapter 836: Seawater Backflow

He was the last to come down, and by the time he did, the rats had already rushed to the fire, so he wasn't poisoned. However, as an ordinary person, he didn't possess Jin Zijin's agility, and it took him forever to climb out of the twisting, tortuous rat holes.

Gui Yunxi's face turned deathly pale; he regretted ever having climbed out.
