Chapter 95: The Water of the Atrium
The first idol was burned by the flames of the sun. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The second idol was sharpened by a blue sword of water sand.
The third idol was devoured by countless soul eaters.
Although Ye Jing didn't know the cause and effect, he didn't even stop for many of these things in Duanmu Shaoai's mouth, but he also reacted in the past: this is obviously someone who wants to deal with the water god here.
It's just that the water god in the eroded water here is also said to be under the jurisdiction of the Wuji Sword Sect, could it be that someone is really so bold that he dares to act against the gods of the Wuji Sword Sect under the nose of the Wuji Sword Sect?
Ye Jing was very skeptical.
According to what the old boatman said before, in the territory of the Infinite Sword Sect, there are always patrolling monks on duty, and this place is almost the core of the Infinite Sword Sect's territory, how can it be easy for monks with bad intentions to break in and do evil?
And one more point.
Within two days of Duanmu Shaoai's arrival, he heard the news of the six differences in Mulberry City, how could the Wuji Sword Sect not know the truth?
But since the Infinite Sword Sect knew, why did it ignore it?
Could it be that all this has something to do with the Infinite Sword Sect itself?
Ye Jing's thoughts were very divergent, and in the blink of an eye, he actually fell on the object of suspicion on the Wuji Sword Sect.
It's just that if all this is really deliberately done by the Infinite Sword Sect, then what is the purpose? Is there some hidden secret behind it?
Ye Jing was puzzled in his heart, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
Ye Jing came to Sangcheng this time because he wanted to join the Wuji Sword Sect, so at this moment, the strange things in the Water Temple may be related to the Wuji Sword Sect, Ye Jing will inevitably be more cautious.
His own safety is only one thing, and second, if he breaks the special arrangement of the Infinite Sword Sect, will it affect his test of joining the Infinite Sword Sect in the future?
Of course, in addition, Ye Jing faintly had this other layer of worry in his heart.
Along the way, until he came to this Mulberry City, the reputation of the Wuji Sword Sect was good, and everything he did was also very in line with Ye Jing's right and wrong temperament, which was also the most important reason why Ye Jing firmly wanted to join the Wuji Sword Sect.
However, at this moment, this Jiangxin Island is a little weird, if there is another unknown side of the Wuji Sword Sect hidden behind this, then how should I face it?
Is it turning a blind eye? Or do you turn around and go to find another sect?
Thinking in his heart, Ye Jing hesitated a little for a while, but heard Duanmu Shaoai's voice ringing in his ears, "Why are you in a daze?" Come in! ”
Ye Jing, who came back to his senses, looked up and saw that Duanmu Shaoai had already walked into the main hall, and he didn't care about the black soul eater insect attached to the statue.
This girl is really not afraid of anything.
Sighing speechlessly, Ye Jing suppressed his thoughts, didn't think about it for the time being, and walked into the main hall.
At this time, after Duanmu Shaoai glanced around the statue full of soul eaters, he became interested in the three-legged tripod in front of the statue again.
Ye Jing walked over, the three-legged tripod looked very ordinary, nothing special, there was not even the most common inscription on the tripod, it should be the utensils used in the hall to sacrifice incense for the statue of the god.
"Anything you found? Is there anything strange about this three-legged tripod? Ye Jing also glanced twice, except for the thick layer of soot in the ding, he didn't find anything, so he could only ask Duanmu Shaoai.
"Of course, nothing can escape the eyes of this girl." Duanmu Shaoai said with a smile.
Ye Jing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled dumbly, "Your tone is really not small." ”
"Tell you the truth!"
The girl ignored Ye Jing's suspicions, smiled and stretched out her hand, and a small flame fell on the three-legged tripod, and with a soft bang, the ashes in the three-legged tripod were easily ignited.
A ball of flame suddenly burst out, and in the jump, it turned out to be like a person's shadow, about to escape from the three-legged tripod.
It's just that the flame that is like half of the human figure has just come out, and a cyan rune immediately flashes above the three-legged tripod, and it turns out to be extinguished in an instant.
"See the oddity, right?" Duanmu Shaoai smiled proudly at Ye Jing.
Ye Jing was stunned, and could only nod, "Okay, what kind of weirdness is this?" ”
When Duanmu Shaoai heard this, his eyes couldn't help but rise and fall to the statue that was really gnawed by countless soul eaters, "The flames in the three-legged tripod are actually the same as the three statues on the stage. ”
The same? What does it mean that fire is the same as a idol?
Ye Jing narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, remembered the human-shaped flame in the three-legged tripod he had just seen, and suddenly said a little abruptly, "You mean, that tripod also hides the kind of primordial god attached to the god statue?" ”
"You're getting smarter!" Duanmu Shaoai smiled and reached out to pat Ye Jing's head.
Ye Jing naturally dodged.
Duanmu Shaoai didn't get entangled, just smiled, and looked around in this hall again, "Look again, there are still weird here, see if there are anything related to water." ”
What to do with water?
Ye Jing was slightly stunned, but after going through the various things he had encountered before in his mind, he reacted by himself.
The three statues of the gods belong to earth, wood, and gold, and although the three-legged tripod is bronze, the flame in it naturally belongs to fire, and it is divided according to the five elements.
Ye Jing guessed the mystery, and his heart was slightly excited.
There are really water-related things in this temple, such as the glass bottle holding water on the altar, and the water basin and wooden barrel used to sweep and clean the water at the feet, but there is nothing special about it.
"No, there must be something special."
Duanmu Shaoai rarely guessed wrong, Ye Jing wanted to say something and laugh, but looking at the girl's frowning slightly, it was actually beautiful with a little irrepressible love, so that Ye Jing, who saw it, couldn't help but be lightly moved in his heart, and he forgot to speak for a while.
By the time Ye Jing reacted, Duanmu Shaoai had already walked to the two side halls next door.
As long as this girl doesn't tease people, she is really beautiful.
Sighing lightly, Ye Jing also walked out of the main hall, but saw that outside the hall, the countless noisy frogs were still croaking in the middle of the courtyard.
Ye Jing suddenly thought of a question, these were obviously specially placed in this courtyard.
As for the purpose of arranging these noise frogs here, Ye Jing and Duanmu Shaoai both had preconceived notions that they wanted to confuse the people on the island with the sound of noise frogs.
Only, is this really the case?
Noise frogs live in swamps, and in other words, they have something to do with water.
This thought suddenly came to mind, and Ye Jing couldn't help but look at the courtyard of the courtyard.
I don't know how many noisy frogs are still lying on the ground in pieces, croaking and clamoring, the originally hidden moonlight is now revealing a small half, and the moonlight shines on the sadness of those noisy frogs, faintly there are water ripples.
"Xiao Ai!"
Ye Jing realized that he should have found something, and immediately shouted.
"What's wrong?" Duanmu Shaoai was looking in the side hall, but still found nothing, and was puzzled in his heart, and when he walked out of the side hall, he saw Ye Jing pointing to the noisy frogs on the ground.
Duanmu Shaoai is also an extremely smart girl, and she reacted after a little startle, and her face couldn't help showing joy, "It turned out to be hidden here, no wonder you want to get these disgusting noise frogs." ”
As she spoke, Duanmu Shaoai casually plucked a petal from the peach blossom hairpin given to her by the woman in pink before, popped it out casually, and landed in the middle of the courtyard.
When the peach blossom landed, the pink light flashed, and the countless noisy frogs suddenly closed their mouths, and there was also a complex array on the ground of the original atrium, and the ground below that was suppressed by the array diagram turned out to be a small lake, and the water ripples that had been faintly seen just now were the shadows of the water surface.
"It turns out that the most fun thing is hidden here." Duanmu Shaoai said with some excitement.
Ye Jing was still a little confused, although the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth were all together at this moment, what could it mean?
Duanmu Shaoai seemed to see through the incomprehension in Ye Jing's heart, and couldn't help but explain a little for Ye Jing, "The previous three statues plus the three-legged tripod, no matter what it looks like, but there is a wisp of distraction hidden in it, and the water in the atrium is the same at this moment." ”
"All those distractions originated from the god of water enshrined in this temple?" Ye Jing asked.
"I don't know, I haven't dealt with that water god before." Duanmu Shaoai shrugged his shoulders, "But the most likely thing is naturally the water god who suddenly disappeared."
"But why? Could it be that it is also to accept incense offerings? ”
Duanmu Shaoai shook his head, "How can it be so complicated to accept incense offerings, I think, it should be that the original water god found some kind of special cultivation method, so he arranged these according to the method of the five elements, but it was later ruined." The ones we see should be left behind by the people who destroyed the water god, in order to completely wipe out the remnants of the water god here. ”
"Under the nose of the Infinite Sword Sect, the rest of the people or forces want to destroy a water god sealed by the Infinite Sword Sect, it should be impossible, so, could it be the hands of the Infinite Sword Sect itself? Listening to the old boatman, isn't there a new water god here? Ye Jing couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Duanmu Shaoai nodded, "It's very possible." The Yin God's cultivation path is very limited, and if you want to take a shortcut, you often have to pay other costs, the original Water God may have found some kind of method that is not tolerated by the Wuji Sword Sect, if so, it is reasonable to be wiped out. ”
"What kind of shortcut is it that can make the Infinite Sword Sect ruthlessly kill and still leave these arrangements?"
Ye Jing thought to himself, but Duanmu Shaoai smiled brightly, and directly grabbed Ye Jing's hand, "If you want to know, it's not easy, just take a look at the water in this atrium!" ”
