Chapter 201: Leaping Dragon Pond
Before dawn, the group quietly entered the Taibai Mountain Mountains, the main peak of the Qinling Mountains, which carries countless glory. The first peak in the middle of China, and in the mouth of the people who cultivate immortals and cultivate the Tao, Taibai Mountain is the eleventh cave of Taoism, Taoism has a total of seventy-two blessed land, thirty-six caves of heaven is an excellent immortal cultivation dojo, and in the thirty-six caves, Taibai Mountain can be ranked in the eleventh place, you can imagine that the magic of this mountain is amazing!
"No! According to the geographical atlas of this place, there is no place called Yuelongtan in this Taibai Mountain Scenic Area!"
The fat man kept flipping through a book of "Qinling Geography Compendium Edition" along the way, on which every scenic spot, even the place that can be named, has corresponding notes, and even the altitude, climate, special scenery, etc., have a detailed overview, but only did not find the marked location of the Yuelong Pond that Tu Youming inquired about.
"Don't look for it, if you can find it on the atlas, then the underground fault under Yuelong Pond has already become a tourist attraction?"
Tu Youming casually agreed to the fat man, and then said: "In fact, there are many peculiar scenic spots in Taibai Mountain, which are not included in the framework marked in the geographical atlas, and it is just a legend to take Yuelong Pond as an example, and few people know that in the belly of Taibai Mountain, there is such a peculiar deep pool hidden!"
"Then how can I find Yuelong Pond?"
The fat man asked puzzled.
"Huh!"
Tu Youming smiled, but he didn't answer, but looked up at the first foothold of this trip, the top of Taibai Mountain!
The so-called Baxian Absolute Peak, that is the top position of the peak of Taibai Mountain, this position, the same as a fairy Qi Yuntai, so from ancient times to the present, it has a name, called "Baxiantai", Baxiantai also has a name, called worship Xiantai, the famous poet Li Bai once had a wonderful verse to praise here...... "raise your hand to approach the moon" to metaphor the wonder and wonder of Baxiantai.
Approaching noon, everyone had been climbing for about four hours, Liang Chen looked up at the white snow on the top of the mountain, and couldn't help but sigh: "Taibai snow in June, sure enough, it's true, it's only late autumn, and there are already snowflakes falling on the top of Taibai Mountain." ”
"This mountain is too difficult to climb, isn't it? It's only half of the climb in four hours, and there's still a little half of the way, and the mountain road is getting steeper and harder, maybe we won't be able to reach the top until dark!"
The fat man gasped and looked at Liang Chen very incomprehensibly: "Liang Zi, aren't we going to find Yuelongtan, why do we want to run to the top of the mountain to drink the cool breeze?"
"Because Yuelong Pond is near Baxiantai!"
Liang Chen responded lightly to the fat man.
"It turns out that the Leaping Dragon Pond is actually on the top of the mountain! I thought it would be underground!"
The fat man shrugged.
"You're not mistaken, are you? Yuelong Pond is a waterhole, how can there be a waterhole on the top of the mountain?"
Qu Miaomiao completely lost the ability to deal with things as an excellent and professional guide at this moment, in the face of the destination of this trip, she did not know much more than the fat man, at this time, she was also so tired that she couldn't breathe, and after saying one sentence, she was too lazy to say the second sentence.
"Make no mistake!"
Tu Youming suddenly picked up the conversation, and said seriously: "The dragon leaped out of the pond and ascended to heaven and became an immortal through Baxiantai, so Yuelongtan must be under Baxiantai." Saying that, Tu Youming thought for a while, and then said, "This is also thanks to the guidance of those who cultivate immortals and cultivate the Dao, if they don't regard this Taibai Mountain as so important, I'm afraid such clues would be really difficult to find!"
Sure enough, as the fat man said, the next road is even steeper and more difficult, although there are footprints of predecessors in front, but in this high-altitude and extremely steep state, it is very difficult to advance one or two meters.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, everyone finally climbed to Basendai, stood on the edge of the cliff of Baxian Tai, and looked down to see the clouds and mist between the mountainsides, and any living creature on the ground seemed to be under the clouds, so invisible, so insignificant.
Standing on Baxian Terrace, it seems to give people a powerful feeling of dominating the world, the mountains and rivers of the world, all under the feet, such a heroic momentum, instantly washed away the fatigue and loss of everyone.
Looking up, it seems that you can touch the boundary between heaven and earth with your hand, although this Taibai Mountain is not the highest peak in the world, but this kind of super perception of pulling out the mountain and covering the world makes people forget even those taller peaks, right now, only Taibai!
"Looking at Qinchuan in the north, the Wei River is like a belt, winding and winding, the Sichuan Plain chessboard, and the Qianmo is vertical and horizontal!"
Liang Chen sighed again, and then looked at the red sun sinking in the west, sprinkling a bright red glow, reflecting the surrounding mountains and rivers to a beautiful scene of golden light, and couldn't help but nodded, and said with a smile: "The water is not deep, there are dragons, there are spirits, mountains are not high, and there are immortals...... See dusk the next day...... If you can see dusk, why do you need to see the daylight?"
"It's getting dark, what do we do next?"
Qu Miaomiao urged anxiously.
"As the saying goes, it's better to go early than to go well, anyway, the underground fault is dark all year round, there is no light, whether you go in during the day or at night, it is the same. ”
Tu Youming smiled strangely, and turned to Liang Chen and said, "Brother Liang, it's time for us to continue on our journey, the next road is still very long, we can't be bound by this wonderful scenery, and there is nothing we are looking for here, right?"
"Keep on your way!"
Liang Chen immediately gave an order, and together with Tu Youming, he took the fat man and Qu Miaomiao to the southern slope of Baxiantai.
When a bright moon rises, the light appears brighter under the reflection of the snow, and not far away, a silvery white ripple appears.
"Is it a lake?"
The fat man exclaimed in surprise.
"It's rare and weird, of course it's a lake, there are several lakes near this Baxiandai, one in the north and one in the south, and there are four other ice erosion lakes, and we are now on the southern slope, and the front should be the largest Jade Emperor Pond!
Qu Miaomiao introduced the outline of this place in a simple and clear way, and turned her head to look at Liang Chen.
Liang Chen looked at Tu Youming.
Tu Youming didn't say a word, he walked to the Jade Emperor Pond first, and then circled around the Jade Emperor Pond, the lake surface of the Jade Emperor Pond covers an area of about dozens of acres, and when Tu Youming turned back, about half an hour had passed. But Tu Youming still didn't say a word until he found a more peculiar mountain rock, which was different from other places, and the whole body was white, especially conspicuous.
Compared with the white stone, Tu Youming walked to the lake step by step, at this moment, Liang Chen and the three of them also arrived at Tu Mingming's side, but saw Tu Youming stretched out his hand and touched his pocket, and said casually: "The seven golden flowers swim in the water, and the rock rings and jingles along the water;
"What does this poem mean?"
Qu Miaomiao listened to Tu Youming recite an inexplicable poem in a daze, and immediately asked without knowing anything.
However, at this moment, everyone's eyes were on a thing that Tu Youming took out of his pocket, which was a copper coin!
Tu Youming picked up the copper coin and glanced at it, and then said: "The golden flower is seven in the water, which means that this copper coin must bloom seven flowers on the water before it can sink, and the sinking position is the first step to find the leaping dragon pool!"
"Isn't that supposed to be money?"
Qu Miaomiao finished speaking, but when she saw everyone looking at her like idiots, she immediately blushed and swallowed her tongue.
When Tu Youming threw out the copper coin and made a few water floats on the water surface, the fat man suddenly realized and said: "It turns out that the seven water floats refer to the seven water splashes, and the water splashes made with money are golden flowers, but why don't you just say it? It has to be so troublesome!"
"If you directly tell the world that there is a Leaping Dragon Pond here, then wouldn't everyone in the world rush down to find the treasure like crazy demons?"
Tu Youming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There were only six splashes just now, and this time the seventh one must appear!"
Immediately afterwards, Tu Youming took out another copper coin, this time, he bent down slightly, and then threw the copper coin violently. A ...... Two or three...... Four, five, six...... Seven flowers!
"Seven golden flowers are out!"
Tu Youming screamed in surprise, and then jumped into the lake, and at this time, Liang Chen turned his head and told the fat man and Qu Miaomiao: "Be careful, don't be reckless!" After speaking, he also jumped into the lake and plunged into the lake.
The lake water was clear, the moonlight was bright, Liang Chen rushed into the water, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Tu Youming underwater, desperately chasing the staggering and sinking copper coin. At this time, the fat man and Qu Miaomiao glanced at each other, and both of them took a long breath, and then rushed into the water.
Breath-holding in the water, like a *, once the countdown is over, it will be swallowed up by this merciless deep water in an instant, and when a minute and a half of the hour quietly comes, everyone seems to have waited for tens of thousands of years......
"Clank!"
When the copper coin fell on a rock as hard as iron and made a pleasant crashing sound, everyone's hearts thought of the second line of the poem that Tu Youming had recited earlier, and the rock clanged and flowed smoothly!
Sure enough, when everyone swam to the rock where the copper coin fell, they suddenly felt a huge suction force, which instantly engulfed it...... This is the undercurrent of underwater flow, which is exactly the mystery of the second line of the poem, and when everyone reacts, it is sucked into a huge underwater passage.
At this moment, the fat man was obviously a little unable to hold back, and his whole body kept twitching, Liang Chen grabbed the fat man's shoulders and made it close to the rock wall, and on the rock wall, there were bubbles the size of beans attached, and the fat man hurriedly lay on the rock wall, sucking dozens of small bubbles in a row, and barely took a small breath.
But at this moment, a whirlpool swirling in the water swept everyone again, and threw the four of them into a bottomless abyss......
