Chapter 642: Dividing the Water Dace
"This thing is called the water dace, it is common in ancient times, and it is often used as a guard in the imperial tomb, and the body of this thing is highly poisonous, so it is necessary to deal with it carefully. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Su Zhen whispered to me.
Dividing mari?
It's a name that sounds a little familiar to me, but think about it. Isn't this dace a pangolin? Is the water dace, is it a pangolin in the water?
I let my doubts come out, and Su Zhen said: That's right, the water-dividing dace is also a biological continuation forcibly changed by the ancient masters with special methods, and the pangolin on the land can be carved into the mountains. Pangolins in the water can guard heavy treasures and protect rivers, so since ancient times, there has been a saying that the water is divided into heavy treasures.
"What's so toxic about this thing?" I stared at the water dividing dace, seeing that the two guys had never exhausted their physical strength, constantly jumping, and it seemed that I wanted to touch the red lotus grass very much, and I also knew that the red lotus grass was indeed a good thing, but I didn't dare to go over now.
Su Zhen said: The prototype of this thing is the pangolin, but the pangolin itself is non-toxic, and it can't dive, and those who transform the pangolin are masters. They will cater to their preferences and add toxins that are suitable for them. For example, the water-dividing dace guarding the underground palace of the imperial tomb will use corpse rot poison to cultivate them, and after the cultivation is formed, the underground dark river will be introduced into the imperial tomb, but it cannot penetrate into the underground palace, otherwise everything will be soaked.
The so-called feng shui is that there is wind and water, and wind and water arise. The water-dividing dace cultivated with corpse rot poison is placed in the underground palace of the imperial tomb and used as eternal guards, which is very suitable, they have an extremely long lifespan, and they can continue to reproduce, so they can be said to be the most loyal mausoleum keepers.
"And what can you do to get there?" I saw that Su Zhen's face was also floating with a sad face. But she couldn't hide the look in her eyes, and I knew she must have thought of a way.
Su Zhen squinted and smiled, leaned next to my ear, and whispered: My method is the most primitive and clumsy, but it is also the most useful.
I said, "What's the solution?"
Su Zhen said: The power of the water division dace is very powerful. But no matter how powerful they are, there is a boundary, they are not oil-drinking machines, and it is impossible to keep moving, and the temptation of this red lotus huixin grass is also very great, so they keep bouncing from the water. If you want to eat this Red Lotus Echo Grass, you can know from the height of their bounce that they have been practicing for many years, but there is still a certain height before they meet the Red Lotus Echo Grass, we don't have to rush for a while, just let them jump, and when they are exhausted, it is the time for us to make a move.
I nodded and said, "Just wait for them to get tired, and then we'll do it." Right?
Su Zhen said: That's what it means, but we must pay attention to one thing, their strength recovers quickly, and when they stop bouncing, we only have ten minutes, if we can't take away the red lotus huixin grass within ten minutes, then this water dace will recover its strength, and we will have to wait for a long time.
I wasn't very sure about that, but whether I was sure or not, I had to do my best, and I said, "Okay, just do it, let these two brutes jump first, and when they're tired, it's time for us to play."
But having said that, things are not so easy to do, and the physical strength of this pair of water dividing carp seems to be inexhaustible, and they keep jumping one after another, one after another, very rhythmic, very rhythmic.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, I still didn't see them stopping, and I was almost impatient, and whispered at this moment: How much power does this water dace?
Su Zhen said to me: The power of pangolins can open mountains and cut mountains, and now you know why those masters use pangolins to make the ingredient dahu.
It turns out that this is the case, and the wisdom of these ancients is really high, using the unique ability of pangolins, and then raising them into alternative water-dividing dace that can live in water, and if necessary, adding toxins to their bodies, if these things continue to this day, I am afraid that they will have been harmed for thousands of years. And the ghost king told me before that most of these secret techniques are not directly lost in large quantities, they are all passed on from generation to generation, only to their own people, and as a result, fewer and fewer people know about it, and even fewer and fewer people are proficient in it, so it is slowly lost.
And to say that the era of the collective loss of many secret arts, I am afraid that it belongs to the Republic of China period, when the imperial system was overthrown, and many secret techniques in the court and among the people did not dare to surface anymore. After all, since the beginning of that era, all kinds of modern heavy firearms have begun to appear among various warlord forces, and bullets are sometimes better used than secret arts, more direct than secret arts, killing people in the blink of an eye. Tosuke Higashi.
Therefore, during the Republic of China, a large number of secret techniques were lost, and no old craftsmen dared to use them, after all, the world was in chaos, the warlords were divided, and everyone just wanted to protect themselves.
I waited for more than 20 minutes, and it looked like it was more than 50 minutes, but the water mrigal was still jumping, and I was also bored, how energetic is this water mrigal?
I whispered: I can't help it, I can't help it, let's kill them both, how about it?
Su Zhen shook his head and said: It is not difficult to kill them, the problem is that after they die, the toxins in their bodies will definitely be dispersed in the water, so we will be in danger.
I sighed, this is not going to work, that is not going to work, it seems that I will have to wait for them to bounce on their own until they have no strength to do it. This kind of thing is really embarrassing, it is really a throwing knife to nail them to death.
"Is there a way to lure them away? Or do we just find a way to pick the red lotus huixin grass? I asked softly.
Su Zhen said: If there is a way, it is the best way for us to directly pick up the Red Lotus Huixin Grass, but if it is not implemented properly and the Red Lotus Huixin Grass is dropped in the waterhole, then our mission on this trip will be a complete failure. This pair of water-splitting dace has been practicing bouncing for many years, but they are still working hard, which shows how strong the power of this red lotus huixin grass is, we can't be careless, and we must not put this thing in the mouth of the water-dividing dace.
It seemed that it was basically impossible to find another way, and at this moment, seeing that the time was about to pass an hour, the drigal carp that kept bouncing in the pool in front of it suddenly stopped jumping and stopped bouncing.
Su Zhen and I glanced at each other, and each saw joy in each other's eyes, and the daces were tired!
I saw the two of them slowly wandering in the pool, exposing their backs a little bit of the water, as if they were hurrying to recover their strength, I said: These two guys are tired and don't leave, why are they still guarding the bottom of the Red Lotus Returning Heart Grass? That's too deadly, isn't it?
Su Zhen also had a sad face, and said: If they don't leave, we can't go over, if so, they will be able to recover in about ten minutes, and then we will have to wait for another hour.
I said: Fight! It's a big deal to kill the two of them first, anyway, this underground river is living water, and we will re-enter when the toxins are all drained from the water source.
Su Zhen said: No, if we kill them, we will have no place to hide for the time being, the rock walls around here are very smooth, there is no place to stay, although the water level we are in is not deep, but if there is a poison in the water, or the blood of the water daceous carp attracts some evil poisonous insects on the shore, we will really be doomed.
After thinking about it, I said: there is a way, this way is stupid, but I can't think of any other way at the moment.
Su Zhen said: At this time, don't care about the quality of the method, the key is to be able to get the red lotus huixin grass.
I said, "Get a few leaves, fold them into a small boat, attach a thin rope to the stern, this boat doesn't need much, it just needs to be watertight, and then stir the water, stir up the waves, and let the small boat made of leaves float down the river, in the middle of the pool, that is, under the red lotus huixin.
"And then?" Su Zhen seemed to show a strong interest.
I said, "Then, when the boat made of leaves drifts under the Red Lotus Echo Grass, I directly use a flying knife to cut off the roots of the Red Lotus Echo Grass and let it fall on the small boat made of leaves, and finally quickly pull back the boat, take the Red Lotus Echo Grass, and leave.
Su Zhen was silent for a moment, and said: I'm afraid this method won't work, the water dividing dace will smell the smell of red lotus huixinca, I have a way, but you will be a little dangerous.
"Just say it."
