Chapter 317: Hexapera

Sun Zhongyuan and Chen Danyang followed behind, and soon, they arrived at the entrance of the slate cave. I took a flashlight and shone it down, and there was a staircase leading to the bottom, but it was a stone.

At the entrance of the cave, a distinct cold and damp smell can be felt, and the fishy smell is even heavier.

The army threw a glow stick down, and found that the stone staircase was not very long, about twenty meters, and underneath, there was a relatively flat stone platform. The glow stick landed on the stone platform, but the stone platform seemed to be the highest point, and the surrounding area was empty.

"Let's go down!" said Dajun back to Sun Zhongyuan and Chen Danyang.

The two nodded, there was no movement here, there shouldn't be any mechanism.

The three of them went down in turn, stood on the stone platform, and turned on the flashlight in unison, and couldn't help but widen their eyes.

The space below is larger than expected, and it is a large pool of nearly circular water with a diameter of more than 50 meters!

The stone platform under the steps is two meters square, but it seems to be suspended in the air, and nearly ten meters below the stone platform is the water surface.

The surface of the water is not frozen, and it is very calm, but it does not appear pure, it is a little green, and the fishy smell comes from the water, not just the fishy smell, it seems to have some peculiar smell.

Just when the three of them shone their flashlights on the water at the same time, from the depths of the water, there was a sudden movement!

It's as if something like a fish is slowly coming up!

"Whoa!" After more than ten seconds, a huge "fish" surfaced!

"What is it?" exclaimed the army.

Sun Zhongyuan looked fixedly, and the thing had begun to swim around the water, as if avoiding the light of the flashlight.

"There are horns!" Chen Danyang shouted.

"And feet!" shouted the army again.

This thing, with a body length of about seven or eight meters, has a light golden body, and its head is like a baby fish, but on both sides of the top, there are red horns!

Three horns on one side, a total of six!

This horn, like coral, has a lot of fine forks on it, bright red in color, and it moves!

The body of this thing is basically like a lizard, with a long tail and four legs, but the four feet are sunk in the water, and the claws cannot be seen clearly!

The three of them looked at the monster under the water, looking at each other.

However, the thing only swims on the surface of the water, and has no other unusual behavior, and it doesn't seem to be able to jump out of the water.

The three of them glanced at each other, and the three flashlights suddenly shone together, trying to see clearly. At this time, the thing seemed to be frightened, and suddenly dived to the bottom again, and when it dived, it moved more violently, as if it had turned over its head, and suddenly plunged down.

Under this prick, the three of them could clearly see its claws, which had four claws, connected by webbing in the middle, and there were no sharp hooks attached to the claws.

After it sank into the water, it never came up again.

After more than ten minutes, Chen Danyang said slowly, "This should be a hexagonal dragon!"

"Hexapera, Ancient Beast?" the army shouted.

"If you think too much, it's just an amphibious pet, but I've never seen such a big one, and it's light gold!" Chen Danyang said.

"Pet?" Sun Zhongyuan had never seen this thing before.

Chen Danyang continued, "I didn't know before, but later our director raised one in the fish tank in the office, which was more than ten centimeters long. Only then did I know that this thing, originally produced near Alaska, seemed to belong to the family of newts. ”

"Is that a kind of salamander?" asked Sun Zhongyuan.

"It should be, but it's too big! it's bigger than a crocodile!"

At this time, the army took a flashlight and pointed to the other end of the pool, "Look, there seems to be a hole there!"

At the other end of the pool, there seems to be a slope of earth, and above the slope, there is indeed a small hole. The three of them used a flashlight together, and the hole didn't seem to be deep.

"This is supposed to be his cave. Sun Zhongyuan looked at them and said, "This hexagonal dragon was raised here by the Tsing Yi Qiang Kingdom during the Warring States Period?"

The army shook his head, "What can live for more than 2,000 years?

"It's hard to say. Chen Danyang said, "I heard that the hexagodhorn dragon has a very strong regeneration ability, as long as the head and internal organs are not damaged, and any place is broken or damaged, it can be regenerated! Although ordinary hexagonal dragons can only live for a few decades, this hexagonal dragon seems to be mutated! Also, the environment here is also a bit special. ”

"Even if what you say is true, but this pool of water looks like stagnant water!" said the army again, "How can you live without food?"

"Who said it must be stagnant water? Do you remember the river next to Taizi Peak? I doubt that the bottom of this pool can be connected to that river!" Chen Danyang said.

"Impossible, isn't it? How could this water quality be so bad if it was connected to that river? Besides, how could this thing be in this place if it could go to the river?" the army continued to shake his head.

"The so-called connection may not allow this thing to pass! It may be a very narrow waterway, or even a gap between the stone bodies? The so-called dragon chant in the river water, I am afraid that it is the movement made by this thing, which comes out through the waterway, so it is more weird!" Chen Danyang said, sneezing, ", this place is a little cold." ”

Sun Zhongyuan handed him a cigarette, "You mean, such an ingenious design, keeping this hexagonal dragon in captivity may be part of the plan to cultivate dragon veins?"

Chen Danyang took two puffs of his cigarette, "Well, I don't know where they found the mutated hexagorapon, and they want to use it as a homolog cultivated by the dragon vein." You see, the ice chamber above here is a six-sided line, matching the hexagonal dragon and six snow-capped mountains. At the same time, on the stone slab of the cover, there is also the gold face and silver eye mark of the Qiang Kingdom in Tsing Yi. ”

"The dragon vein can't be cultivated, but this place has not been withdrawn, all kinds of coincidences have caused this hexaperad dragon to survive until now?" Sun Zhongyuan groaned.

"I think so! A series of settings, combined with the force of the dragon vein generation, may be the basis for this hexaperad dragon to live so long. However, the dragon vein did not come true in the end, and this hexagonal dragon did not change much in the end. Although it is old and large, it looks like it is still an ordinary animal. Chen Danyang said.

"And what now?" the army asked.

"Let's go, it seems that there won't be any treasures now, do you still want to take this thing away and raise it?" Chen Danyang was actually a little depressed.

Sun Zhongyuan patted Chen Danyang on the shoulder, "Since that's the case, go up and say it!"

The trio went up to the ice chamber, put the lid on as it was, and then returned to the valley floor by climbing rope.

By this time, it was already dark.

This hole in the valley could not be dealt with at all, so they had to withdraw from the valley first.

Coming to the ruins on the south side of the village, Chen Danyang sat on a broken wall, "I'm so tired, let's rest for a while!"

Chen Danyang and Dajun also sat down, but Heizi walked aside, "You guys are tired below, why did I sit on it for a long time!"

"The hole in this valley is just exposed?" Sun Zhongyuan was a little worried.
