Chapter 80: Xuanwu
I wanted to sink a little deeper, so I went down fast, and this time, I suddenly felt a strange coolness, and when I encountered this cold feeling in the water, I instinctively thought that something heavy yin touched me. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info At this thought, I became nervous, and all the breath I was holding suddenly came out, and the water kept pouring into my mouth, and I struggled in the water like a landlubber, and my feet just kicked into something sharp and hard, and a warm heat instantly gushed out of my calves.
After being filled with water, the brain can hardly think, and the only thought in my mind is: "Water...... Lots of water ......."
Just when my mind was in chaos, someone stretched out his hand and pulled me out of the pool, and I didn't care who it was, what happened just now, and choked violently, choking my tears and snot.
After a long time, I put my back on the stone door, took a few breaths, came back to my senses, and the little Taoist priest next to me asked me how I was? I wiped my face with water and told the story in a prostration.
When the little Taoist priest heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that a sharp thing is a mechanism?"
I nodded and said, "Chances are......"
"I'll go and investigate, since you're injured, go up first!" the little Taoist priest wanted to pull me back to shore.
I waved my hand and said, "I wrote down the location just now, so I'd better go down and look for it." ”
So saying, I plunged into the water again and lit the lamp on the water meter, which was weaker than black. I slowly dived to the spot where my foot was scratched, and as far as the light of the watch could reach, there was indeed a slender object, and if I looked closely, it was actually a slender snake.
Under the faint blue light of the watch, the body of the snake statue was coiled, its head stretched forward, its two long teeth were sharp, and its tongue was forked, in an aggressive manner, looking extremely vicious. And its chassis is a turtle, and I look at this combination, and I am amazed, this ...... Could it be Xuanwu! The little Taoist priest's inference is correct, this place is really arranged by the stars, and the area we went to is really the Xuanwu position.
I was overjoyed in my heart, but I didn't care about the cold pain on my feet, and reached out to touch the Xuanwu statue. There was a little gap between the turtle and the stone wall behind it, and I thought to myself, "I can't be wrong, it must be the mechanism that opened the stone door!"
The breath was already very uncomfortable, after the opening was completed, I went upstream, poked my head out, the little Taoist priest was waiting for me, I told the situation again, and everyone listened to the sound of the mechanism opening.
However, he waited for a while, but there was no movement. At this time, the body of me and the little Taoist priest was already very heavy, and the mechanism was not opened properly, which meant that I had to go down and toss again, and I couldn't help but feel a little irritable when I thought about it. Thankfully, it wasn't long before we heard the sound of heavy gears turning.
When the storekeeper by the waterhole heard this voice, he looked at the stone gate behind us expectantly, but after waiting for a long time, the stone gate did not move at all, but the little Taoist priest and I both felt that something was sucking down our bodies. I saw that something was wrong, so I immediately held on to the stone door behind me and muttered, "What's the matter?" I obviously heard the sound of the mechanism opening, could it be that this stone door is just an ornament, and the real entrance is underwater?"
Just when we were wondering, a blister suddenly appeared where the little Taoist priest and I were, and then a second ...... The third ...... It's like there's a fish down there. When I entered the water, my vision was not good, but I was sure that there was no living life around, and I didn't know what was going on with the sudden blisters and the strange suction. It reminded me of the coolness I felt in my feet before, and I couldn't help but classify this problem as the most sensitive water ghost problem of treasure.
The so-called "ancient tombs do not repair water, there must be a reason for repairing water", I looked at the black and swarthy deep pool of water bubbles more and more, two feet suddenly felt stiff and numb, I glanced at the little Taoist, said: "Something is wrong, the soles of the feet are cold, isn't it...... Didn't I open some kind of terrible mechanism?"
It's rare to do something important on my own, but I don't have any confidence in what I'm doing. The little Taoist priest looked at the sudden blisters, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, and said, "Go ashore first, what kind of question is there, and there will be an answer in a short time." ”
I nodded, and the two of them couldn't wait to swim towards the Kushi, and at this time, the Kushi and Bajian looked at us intently, and the expressions on their faces looked particularly weird.
I was so stunned by them that I stopped moving and said, "What...... What's wrong?" I thought they were scared of something, and their eyes were wide open.
After lighting the torch of the little Taoist priest with his own, the master shouted at us: "Something is coming up behind you, is it ......?"
"Snake worm?" I'd never heard of a worm called it before, but when I heard the commotion in the water behind me, I got goosebumps, lost the ability to think, and looked back in a daze......
The little Taoist priest saw that I didn't know how to run at this time, so he immediately grabbed me, swam forward, and said: "The appearance of the snake binding insect means that there is a giant snake in the waterhole, and you can't stay in the water, don't be distracted, cheer up, go ashore and hide!"
I heard the little Taoist priest say that there were snakes in the water, and the head seemed to be doused with a layer of ice slag, which was so cold that it was cold to the bone, and the giant snake guarding the ancient tomb that appeared in an old adventure movie in my childhood came to my mind again, and I was so frightened that I was suffocated, and I always felt that my feet were now full of open mouths, waiting to gnaw on the worms that gnawed at me.
Once a person is afraid of something, it is difficult to adjust his emotions back, if it weren't for the little Taoist priest dragging me now, I guess I would have given the worm as a snack.
We swam quickly to the shore, and Ba Jian reached out to meet us, while the curator half-bent over, waving two torches to buy us time to go ashore.
When Ba Jian pulled me up, I was a few steps away from the water, and I felt like I had escaped from the shark's mouth and never wanted to go into the water again. The little Taoist priest then went up, and the two of us stayed in the water for a long time, sitting on the ground on our backs, gasping for breath, looking at the waterhole, swarming, small insects the size of fingernails, and I couldn't help but feel numb in my scalp.
These insects have thin bodies and tender appearances, like blue-green aphids on leaves, or scales on snakes, and the only thing they have is their heads, and they don't know if they need to eat with such a flat body.
Looking at the insects, I reflexively looked at whether I was contaminated with it, looked around, glad not, I guess the little Taoist priest didn't pull me, I have been caught up by these transparent insects this time.
I don't know if they have been in the water for a long time, or if they are water creatures themselves, and not a single insect has come ashore because they see their prey, and they are also extremely afraid of fire. (To be continued.) )
