Chapter 32 The Palace of the Lonely Mountain Shark King

The god of water only dragged me out of the distance of three to five meters before stopping, and put me on the rocky ground, and after a while, someone was put down by the god of water clinging to me.

I couldn't tell if the man was alive or dead, but I knew that his body was frighteningly cold, and his cold, watery body was clinging to my body, so that I couldn't feel a trace of temperature.

The water god threw the men on the ground one by one and jumped back into the water, and the whole cave fell into a deathly silence. I tried to open my eyes and look around, but all I could see was the dark roof of the cave.

I don't know how long it took for the people around me to suddenly move. They put their hands on my chest left and right, and then they all pressed over me. Soon after the cold body was half-pressed against me, the palms that reached from my left and right sides slowly slid under my neck.

A cold little hand pressed against my throat in just an instant, and I suddenly felt a thrill. The next moment, I suddenly felt the other person's five fingers slowly close. As two cold fingers slowly tightened around my neck, the palm of the hand suddenly changed direction, ran down my neckline to my chest, and stopped pressing on my chest, while the other hand reached under the hem of my garment and pressed against my stomach.

What do they want to do?

Before I could figure out the other party's intentions, I heard someone stand up from a distance, fumbling for something to open.

After a few seconds, I heard what looked like someone was turning the pulley of a lighter?

Someone is igniting?

Just as I thought I had misheard, a flash of fire flashed back and forth in the corner of my eye. Someone is really lighting it with a lighter!

When I wanted to shout but couldn't, the cave was suddenly lit up by the fire on the wall, and Ye Xun's voice followed: "Wang Huan, are you okay?"

"Ye Xun!" I shouted in surprise, "how are you?"

I haven't seen Ye Xun since I fell into the water, and I thought he had been killed, and when I heard Ye Xun's voice, I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Ye Xun walked around from under me, looked down at me and said, "Don't worry, the medicinal power on your body will slowly disappear, and it will be fine after a while." Lie there and don't struggle, just wait slowly. ”

After I glanced left and right, I found that it was Dong Xiaowei lying on my left, she was putting her hand on my chest, and Zhang Shu, who was lying on my right, was holding my stomach with her hand.

I didn't react until this time. The strength of the two of them should have faded a small part, although the two of them are not fully awake, but they have already had a subconscious reaction, they should feel very cold, so they subconsciously want to lean on me to keep warm.

I followed Ye Xun's words and lay quietly in the cave waiting for the medicinal power to fade. It didn't take long for Dong Xiaowei to wake up first: "Wang Huan, Wang Huan, how are you?"

Ye Xun said urgently: "Don't touch him, let him get up by himself." ”

"Oh oh......" Dong Xiaowei quickly retracted his hand and sat beside me quietly waiting for me to recover.

But the person who woke up first was Zhang Shu, and after she woke up, she screamed: "What kind of place is this? Wang Huan, hurry up!"

Zhang Shu's first reaction was to grab my arm and try to get me up. As soon as she dragged me, I felt a whirlwind in my head, a strong feeling of dizziness suddenly hit, and my stomach was followed by a wave of discomfort, and I subconsciously wanted to vomit out. However, the water that came up from my stomach could not be vomited, but choked into my trachea, and I suddenly felt as if my lungs were about to explode, and I was extremely uncomfortable.

"Don't touch him!" Ye Xun raised his hand in anger and pushed Zhang Shu out, knelt on one knee on the ground, picked me up with both hands and put it on his lap, and quickly slapped me on the back a few times.

I let out a "wow" and squirted water from my mouth and nose at the same time. I lay on Ye Xun's lap and vomited for a while, until I vomited bile.

Ye Xun hesitated for a moment before he took out a pill from the guitar case and stuffed it into my mouth: "Eat it." ”

I subconsciously asked, "Didn't you lose your equipment?"

Ye Xun asked rhetorically, "Isn't your knife also on your body?"

I subconsciously reached out and touched the long knife on my back, and sure enough, it was still there. My body had been paralyzed just now, and I didn't even feel a long knife with a sheath behind me.

I gasped and looked around. The cave we were in was in the center of the waterhole connected to the Fuxian Lake puddle, and we should have been dragged into the cave by the water god.

To the left of the puddle is a clearing like a platform, several huge fish bones are scattered on the platform, and behind us is a staircase that seems to have no end, and on one side of the staircase is a fire trough lit by Ye Xun with a lighter.

When I stood up and looked around carefully by the light of the fire, I suddenly noticed that the mountain wall behind the platform seemed to be faintly engraved with a mural-like pattern: "Ye Xun, you come with me to take a look." ”

After Ye Xun helped me around the water's edge, I saw that in addition to fish bones, there were piles of arrows scattered on the ground of the platform, and the longest and largest arrow was much wider than my palm. Judging by the marks left on the ground, there must have been a fierce battle here.

When I walked along the mountain wall, Ye Xun also used a lighter to light the fire trough on the mountain wall. Now, the scenery of the whole cave is a little clearer, and the murals carved on the cave are also clearly reflected in my sight.

The lines of the murals are extremely rough, but they are so well preserved that at least I can understand the meaning of the paintings. After walking around the cave, I returned to the water's edge, pointed to the fire trough, and said, "Ye Xun, please go and get some oil out of the fire trough." ”

Ye Xun picked the fire trough with the tip of his knife and quickly threw it on the ground. The lamp oil, which was still burning just now, quickly extinguished the flame after hitting the ground, and condensed into white grease.

I reached out and dipped a little lamp oil twice and said, "I know what kind of place this is, this is the Shark King's Palace in the lonely mountain." ”

Ye Xun was shocked: "What did you say?"

I raised my finger stained with lamp oil and said, "This is the legendary mackerel oil that will not be extinguished for thousands of years." The so-called shark king did not swim into the cave by himself, but was led to the cave to hunt and kill, and the fish oil on his body was used as fuel into the fire trough in the cave. ”

Zhang Shu said in a trembling voice: "You mean, this is an ancient tomb?"

"The place where the lamp is made of mackerel oil is not necessarily an ancient tomb. I looked up at the passageway, "The third section of Jianmu has finally been found. ”

Ye Xun said in a deep voice: "You said that Gushan Island is the canopy?"

"Definitely!" I slowly analyzed, "you go to see the murals, which completely record the process from the founding of the ancient city to the sinking of Fuxian Lake. I'll start with the first painting......"

"Many years ago, the Boundary Fish Stone was still there, but it was not what it is now, but a larger and more vivid open-air rock, at least not what we see now, and there is a huge space underneath, which is the lair of the water god we see. ”

"The front of the Jieyu Stone did not become Zeguo, but a narrow land surrounded by the lake from both sides, and behind that land was a lonely mountain. At that time, the lonely mountain was not what we see now, but the mountain was covered with green vegetation. ”

"If you stand on the Boundary Fish Stone and look in the direction of the Lonely Mountain, the Boundary Fish Stone, the land, and the Lonely Mountain are just like a giant tree that has fallen into the shallow water of Fuxian Lake. If they were to be erected again, they would be exactly the same as the legendary building wood that connected the three worlds of heaven and earth. ”

As I spoke, I pointed to the third mural: "Originally, there was only one tribe on that land. The tribe believed that although the Jianmu had collapsed, it could still connect the Three Realms, so while living and reproducing on land, they also threw prisoners into the cave under the Boundary Fish Stone, because they believed that it was hell, and also worshipped the Lonely Mountain as a sacred mountain, because they believed that they could find the heavenly realm through the sacred mountain. ”

I pointed to the corner of the third mural and said, "Look there, isn't that a picture of someone walking through a hole to Mount Kinabalu?"

Ye Xun looked at it for a while before saying, "Why do I think that the person who walked into the cave has a bit of a dying smell." ”

I nodded, "I feel it too." Many people of the ancient tribe felt that the death of human beings was called by the gods and returned to the embrace of the gods, and it was not difficult to understand that they would enter the sacred mountain before dying. ”

Ye Xun nodded and said, "You continue to talk about it later." ”

I pointed to the fourth mural and said, "Suddenly, one day, a powerful army rushed into this area, and the indigenous tribes were slaughtered in a frenzy, and they had to disobey the will of the gods and lead their tribe into the sacred mountain to escape the war. However, they still did not escape the fate of being killed. ”

"The sacred mountain, which they worshipped for thousands of years, eventually became the burial ground of the entire tribe. In desperation, the sorcerers of the tribe gathered the last of their people together and sacrificed them to the evil gods, and cursed that all those who invaded their tribe would be buried under the water. ”

Ye Xun couldn't help frowning after hearing this, and said, "According to what you said, that tribe should have completely disappeared." But how did the underwater ancient city come about? What happened to the corpses in the city? And what about the water gods and ghost-faced sharks who occupied Fuxian Lake?"

After Ye Xun asked three questions in a row, he continued: "Moreover, there is still something you can't explain. Since the bottom of the Boundary Fish Stone is the place where the ancient tribe put prisoners, it should be a grave used to execute prisoners or abandon corpses, how can it become the lair of the water god?"

I stretched out my hand and pointed to the blazing fire trough on the mountain wall: "Look here, maybe, it can explain something for us." ”
