Chapter 13: The Secret of the Monolith
The moment Dekang saw the boulder in the water, he only felt that his whole soul was hooked by it, he didn't know what the reason was, but Dekang told himself to swim over to see what kind of mystery this boulder in the water was hiding. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Without solving this mystery, Dekang will not be able to lead the Earth Wolf Clan to confront humans, according to the current situation of the Steppe Wolf Clan, it is the same with or without him, the little prince of the Dekang family, slowly waiting to die.
Dekang decided to stay with Baoyue, because Baoyue is a lucky general, not only can she turn evil into good fortune at critical moments, but sometimes her whimsical ideas can make Dekang suddenly open his mouth and give him the motivation to move forward.
The three of them ran south along the seashore for six or seven hundred steps, and Dekang estimated that it was almost there, patted Shirao's shoulder and jumped into the sea without saying a word, and Baoyue followed closely behind him.
"The little prince. If you can't do anything, don't force it, Shirao is waiting for you to come back on the shore. Looking at the brother and sister who swam towards the sea to the west without looking back, Shirao only felt a sour nose and tears almost welled up.
Jumping down, they felt that the water was a little cold, and Dekang paddled his limbs hard, but the water flowing to the mouth of the river still led them diagonally towards the north.
The speed of the current exceeded Dekang's expectations, and he estimated that if he drifted like this, he might not reach the surface of the sea where the boulder was located, and it would be in vain.
"Baoyue, hold on to my tail and let's swim west together, otherwise we won't be able to get to Dashi."
"Hmm... Baoyue is also swimming hard at the bottom of the sea temperature to maintain her body temperature.
The brother and sister joined forces, one in front of the west, and the white tail on the shore followed the direction they drifted to the north, keeping their eyes firmly fixed on the sea.
Soon, the two water stones in Dekang's eyes turned into boulders the size of the gate of the dark space, and they were only a few dozen steps away from the boulder, and they were about to fall on the boulder when they saw the current.
Dekang stared at the boulder to find a place to hook and climb.
The boulders in the water are washed and slapped by the sea day and night, and its surface has long been polished smooth as a mirror.
Dekang swept the surface of the boulder facing northwest several times, only to see that the surface of the boulder was smooth, even if some parts were uneven, it was impossible to hook and climb.
"Second brother. Can you climb up? Baoyue also stared nervously at the boulder.
According to Shirao, the Golden Wolf Khan King originally climbed the boulder and jumped into the sea again, but how did he climb this slippery boulder that could not enter the claws, could it be said that the surface of the boulder was not so slippery at that time, and he could climb up?
Dekang's head raced quickly, and at the same time he warned himself to be calm.
Before he could figure out anything, the water dragged Dekang and Baoyue to a place only ten or so steps away from the boulder, and Dekang suddenly felt the tearing force of the water increase, and he began to struggle to get rid of the undercurrent surrounding the boulder.
Shirao, who had run back to the same place, suddenly jumped up on the shore and shouted something, and Baoyue glanced behind him in surprise in the direction he was pointing, only to see a huge wave surging behind him.
"Ahh Baoyue shouted.
This huge wave swept Dekang and Baoyue into it with lightning speed.
At this moment, the night sky is full of stars, and the full moon as white as white jade is hanging high above the boulder.
Dekang and Baoyue only felt an irresistible force flying them up like a cloud, and before they could figure out the situation, Dekang only felt that his limbs seemed to step on a hard surface.
When he opened his eyes, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he was standing on top of the boulder, and Baoyue behind him was tugging at his tail with his eyes closed, looking like he didn't know what was in the clouds.
Dekang hurriedly exerted his claws on all fours and clasped tightly on the surface of the boulder, and at the same time twisted his ass to pull Baoyue to his side: "Baoyue." Stand still. ”
Baoyue, who was in the clouds, opened her eyes when she heard the shouts of the second brother, and when she realized that she was already standing on the top of the boulder, she suddenly jumped up in a fit of confusion, "Whew... The moon god is with us! ”
When she fell, the footpad stepped on the wet smooth rock and staggered over and fell to the ground, Dekang quickly turned around and bit Baoyue's neck with his teeth, so that the little cub did not slip down.
"Let go of me. It hurts... Baoyue also knew the danger and didn't dare to struggle, but the little mouth began to scream.
Dekang waited for her to regain her footing and reprimanded, "Don't look at what this place is." ”
"People are so happy... Bao Yue half-lowered her head and glanced at Dekang a little regretfully.
"Take a closer look at this big rock." Dekang instructed Baoyue to follow him to inspect and check to see if there was anything unusual on the surface of the boulder.
They lowered their heads and looked clockwise at the surface of the big boulder beside them, but before they made money, they didn't notice anything special.
"Second brother. Why is there a big rock in this big estuary? Baoyue was a little disappointed.
"If the second brother knew, he wouldn't have to check it out." Dekang scratched his scalp.
"What then?"
"We're all here, let's look for it again."
"It's so big, I've seen it all." Baoyue said helplessly.
Dekang realized something after listening to Baoyue's words, he squinted his eyes at the river and thought about it, only then did he realize that he had forgotten to ask Baiwei which direction the Golden Wolf Khan King had jumped in the first place.
"Second brother. What are you thinking? ”
Dekang told Baoyue his thoughts, but Baoyue didn't want to point to the vast sea to the west and say, "Of course it's this side, otherwise it's called jumping into the sea." ”
Dekang only smiled bitterly when he heard it, but it made some sense when he thought about it.
He took two steps forward to the western edge of the big rock and stretched his neck to inspect the rock below, but after looking and looking, he still found nothing, and just as Dekang raised his head to retract his left forelimb, he looked at the sea to the west and seemed to be a little abnormal.
About a half-way from the center of the large rock to the west, there was a whirlpool on the clear blue sea, and bubbles seemed to be popping up in the middle of the whirlpool.
Dekang blinked and stared, yes, there were bubbles coming out.
He looked down at the clear water next to the whirlpool, and because it was night, Dekang could only see a few places deep below the surface of the sea, so he couldn't tell where the bubbles coming out of the whirlpool came from.
"What did the second brother find?" Bao Yue saw that Dekang looked engrossed and knew that the second brother had made a new discovery.
"There's a little weird down the surface of the sea."
"What's weird?" Baoyue asked.
"The second brother doesn't know...
Dekang thought about it for a moment, he retreated to the center of the big rock, twisted around, pulled out the front paws of the divine knife, crossed the grip of the hilt, and stabbed obliquely into the big rock in front of him, and the divine knife pierced into the rock little by little.
Probably pierced into a depth of more than a head, Dekang heard a slight click, and then the knife stopped stabbing, he exerted a little force, the knife did not move, not even the depth of a claw could not pierce in.
Dekang's face changed drastically.
Ever since he and Baoyue were favored by the Moon God in the dark space, the Human Excalibur and the Wolf Clan Excalibur have been invincible and invincible under Dekang's wielding.
But on this night, in the mysterious place where the Golden Wolf Khan King jumped into the sea and disappeared, the divine sword finally met its opponent.
"Can't get in?" Baoyue saw something unusual.
Dekang nodded and staggered a step into the big rock again, almost the same depth, Dekang heard a slight click again, and then no matter how hard he tried, the divine knife could no longer pierce it.
He shook his head and pulled out his sword and looked into the crack, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything.
"I didn't expect that the invincible wolf clan divine sword in the world would also meet an opponent." Dekang withdrew his hand and muttered to himself.
When Bao Yue heard this, she pursed her lips and said, "What's strange about this, in the dark space, you can't stab the low wall and the ground with the human divine sword." ”
Dekang was stunned for a moment: 'Could it be that ... ’
"Second brother... You're stupid... ”
"Baoyue. Could it be that this big rock has something to do with dark space? Dekangzhi stared at Baoyue in a daze and asked.
Bao Yue nodded: "The Wolf Clan Divine Sword and the Human Divine Sword can't even be resisted by the undead demons. Apart from the black walls of the dark space, Baoyue couldn't think of anything else that could resist it. ”
"Maybe it's really related." Dekang nodded: "I guess why the Golden Wolf Khan King jumped from here." ”
"Why?" Baoyue listened to the little face, and suddenly leaned in front of Dekang's nostrils and asked loudly.
Dekang explained that since the wolf clan's divine sword could not pierce this large rock, it means that this large rock is likely to have a connection with the dark space, and it makes sense that the Golden Wolf Khan King chose to search for secrets here.
If the Golden Wolf Khan King wants to find a way to revitalize the wolf clan, then he must have a place to find it, and he jumps from here, which shows that he knows how to enter that place, and Dekang guesses that the place where the Golden Wolf Khan King jumped should be the path to enter that mysterious place.
"Second brother also wants to jump in to find it?" Baoyue asked.
Dekang nodded: "Since you are here, you can't go home empty-handed." ”
"But the Golden Wolf Khan never came back." Jumping into the bottomless sea water without hesitation, Baoyue is also a little worried.
"The dark space has been escaped for us. There will always be a way out, and it's a big deal to wield a magic knife to break a way. Dekang patted the handle of the knife and looked confident.
Baoyue nodded: "Baoyue will help the second brother." ”
"Good. Let's jump down together. ”
Dekang tidied up the divine knife, then squatted down and put Baoyue on his back, he took a deep breath and stared at the whirlpool in the west and jumped, and with a plop, Dekang and Baoyue instantly sank into the water.
At first, the two of them used their momentum to sink straight into the water, but after sinking about two or three positions, Dekang felt that his descending body was about to stop.
'Could it be that if it just surfaced, how could the Golden Wolf Khan King disappear?' A thought crossed Dekang's mind.
Just when they were suspicious, Dekang and Baoyue suddenly felt a huge attraction coming from under their feet, and then they spun and sank rapidly, and for a while Dekang felt that his head was a little confused, as if his body was out of control.
"Baoyue... Baoyue... Dekang struggled.
I don't know how long it took, but when Dekang came to his senses, he found himself lying in a large black pool, and he swept his eyes around to find Baoyue lying next to him.
"Baoyue... Wake up... Baoyue... Wake up... Dekang swam over and patted Bao Yue's little face vigorously.
"I'm dizzy... Baoyue said in a daze.
Dekang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly dragged Baoyue towards the side.
In the water, Dekang felt that Baoyue's body was very light, and it didn't take much effort to swim Baoyue to the edge of the pool, and he looked up, and the water surface was about half a body height from above.
Dekang held Baoyue's lower limbs and kicked the water with his whole body, and at the same time stretched out his left forelimb to try to hook the edge of the pool, but unfortunately, there was still a gap of nearly a head from the edge of the pool.
The claws slid down the walls of the black pool with a piercing creak, and Dekang and Baoyue fell back into the water.
Dekang adjusted his breathing and body to prepare to tread water and jump again, who knew that Baoyue woke up after such a toss, she opened her eyes slightly and asked, "Second brother." Where are we? ”
"See for yourself, we somehow got to this big pool." Dekang himself didn't know where it was.
"Big pool!" Baoyue turned her head to look, and saw that the pool was all black, and the walls above it were also black.
"Second brother, why is it all black here, it's a bit like a dark space."
Dekang wanted to take Baoyue to climb ashore first, but before he could think about other situations, he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Baoyue's words: "It seems that there is really some connection with the dark space under the big rock. ’
Since this is a place that looks like a dark space, the initial apprehension and uneasiness of the brother and sister almost all dissipated, Dekang and Baoyue looked at each other and said at the same time: "Climb up first and then find the passage." ”
This time, Dekang no longer held Baoyue, only to see his lower limbs surging up, his right forelimb on the edge of the pool, and his left forelimb followed suit, and then with his forelimbs, Dekang turned over and climbed into the pool.
Baoyue saw that the second brother had turned over and was doing the same on the side, but somehow, she couldn't get up in the water at all.
Dekang could only sit on the edge of the pool and stretch his lower limbs down, Baoyue fluttered a few times at Dekang's feet and finally hooked it, Dekang leaned back and dragged Baoyue up most of the time, and then his forelimbs supported the ground and his buttocks shook from side to side and moved back a few times, and finally pulled Baoyue up.
The body was wet and a little cold, and as soon as the brother and sister came ashore, they quickly spread their limbs and shook their bodies vigorously, and for a while the water splashed, and the three or four places in a square area were full of water stains.
The distance between the two of them was too close, and a small half of the water droplets that were thrown out flew to each other, and Dekang snorted and walked away a few steps and continued to shake his body until he felt satisfied and comfortable.
He looked back at Bao Yue and found that Bao Yue had not shaken it clean, so he urged her to shake her body again and avoid the splashing water droplets with one arrow step.
"Shake off our bodies so that we can investigate, or we won't get sick." Seeing that Baoyue was a little reluctant, Dekang said angrily.
"Baoyue's body is great." After shaking and playing, Baoyue replied with her little head held high.
After cleaning up the water beads on their bodies, Dekang and Baoyue began to look at the pool space, and with the experience of exploring the dark space, they also seemed calm and relaxed.
It didn't matter if this looked at it, the situation in front of them was completely different from falling into a dark space, and the brother and sister immediately became nervous.
The pool space has a radius of hundreds of paces, surrounded by more than twenty passages wide by a body, and on the edge of the passage is a high black wall, which Dekang estimates is afraid of twenty or thirty feet in height.
In the corner of the wall to his left was a large door, almost identical to the dark space, and their eyes lit up because it was still open.
However, Dekang and Baoyue did not cheer because of this, on the contrary, their expressions were a little serious.
After scanning back and forth to inspect and see, the expressions of the brother and sister became more solemn.
"Second brother. Why is there only one gate? Baoyue couldn't help but speak first.
"There must be another opening, but we can't find it for a while."
"What then?"
"Look around again..."
Just like the first time in the space where there was a giant pillar in the dark space, Dekang took Baoyue step by step around the root of the wall, looking up and down as he went, trying to find some clues, Baoyue followed behind Dekang step by step, his big eyes widened.
But they went around and found nothing.
"It's impossible... Walking back to where he had climbed out of the pool, Dekang looked at the pool and muttered to himself.
