Chapter Twenty-Seven: Open, Enter
Now that I know that this boulder can float by relying on Taoism, Eun ...... So as long as you find out what elements the five-pointed star tip on the boulder represents, and then use the Dao technique in reverse - it should be fine, right?
The key is what element the tip of the star directly below the inverse pentagram represents. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This-
Carefully observe the Dao sigil and think hard for a while.
β¦β¦ It should be dirt, right?
After all, the four holy beast sigils are marked around the pentagram, and the four star tips each point to a holy beast - the four holy beasts represent the four geographical directions - southeast, northwest and northwest, and the four elements representing the southeast and northwest in the five-pointed map (that is, the pentagram) are wood, fire, gold and water, and the last earth is the center, the only element that is not related to the four holy beasts.
That...... The elemental arrangement of this inverse pentagram should start with the earth directly below, and then the circular arrangement of metal, water, wood, and fire, which corresponds to the orientation of the surrounding four holy beasts - this should not be a coincidence.
β¦β¦ I think I'm right, right?
In order, the tip of the pentagram is pasted with five kinds of symbols representing the power of the five elements.
And after that? What to do?
ββIs it to turn the entire Dao Talisman that makes up the inverted pentagram upside down again? Or do you want to bring the earth runes that are far away from the other Dao runes closer?
Woo! Trouble!
It seems that both methods can be counted as reverse use of Daojutsu, but which method is the right one?!
And in this mysterious place, I don't know what will happen if you use the wrong path technique...... But I always feel that it will be dangerous to use it wrong!
After a closer look around, nothing was found. Alas...... It would be nice to have more hints!
Or someone can discuss--
Woo! Forget it! No matter! Didn't Master Bai Suiyun say: "The reason why our Dao masters' Dao methods can fight each other and crack each other. It is not based on the Western formula of one key to one lock, but based on the feeling of everyone after the Taoist norm, that is, the same Taoist seal, and the method of lifting each Taoist priest is not exactly the same. "What? ββIt's right to follow what you feel!
All right! Shorten the earth charm! I've decided!
That's right! If Lacey had it, he would have chosen it that way, right? - Anyway, there is no definite way to do it now, rather than turning the whole reverse five mangs upside down. Or is it easier to just shorten the distance between the earth runes and other Dao runes!
He'd definitely think so! Uh-huh! He must have thought so! My decision is the same as my sister! - That must be right!
That's it!
He gave up his hand and plucked the earth talisman, moved it upwards and down to a lower positionβall the way to a point closer to the middle than the regular five-pointed star talisman that was supposed to be with the other four Dao talismans, and then stuck it hard!
Good! Below...... Since I don't know what spell to use. So let's use the most basic of Taoism, right? At most, add some of your own understanding!
He closed his eyes, and then raised his right hand again and pressed it to the center of the pentagram - "Inherit the destiny of the heavens, meet the will of the heavens, and lead the heavens...... while releasing the magic power. He said slowly. "The art of the four elephants, the power of the five elements...... Open! β
Instantly, there was a warmth in the palm of the hand, and there was a feeling of friction, and there was a "gurgling" sound around at the same time.
Effective! Happily opening her eyes, the boulder in front of her was slowly rising at a visible speed, and behind the boulder, which was at least ten meters long, stood the stunned little Luca, and behind her, Nabal and Minia, who also showed surprised expressions.
Hey, I made it!
γγγγγγγγγγγγγγγ
"The secret room was really opened by you, Sister Sakuraβ" Little Luka still had an expression of disbelief. "How did you do that? How did you just disappear and how did you end up inside?! β
"Hey, hey!" I scratched my head in embarrassment. "I opened the door with a Taoist technique, but how did I disappear, and how did I get into the secret room--sister, I don't know very well--maybe it's the legendary 'water escape technique'?"
"Water Escape?! What is that?! β
"Sister, I don't know very well, anyway, it's probably using the water teleportation technique - I don't know how to let it start just now, sister!"
"Ugh! Luca, all I can say is - Sister Sakura, you're so lucky! β
"Maybe it's not luck!" Minia glanced at the open corridor for a moment, "Haven't those masked people been stopping Sakura from coming here?" - They had already guessed that Sakura would be able to open the secret room. β
"But it's but- even Sister Sakura doesn't know how to do it herself!"
ββ¦β¦ Destiny's arrangement! Nabal said something abruptly, and then glanced at us, "Sakura, you take me and little Luka in a momentβMinia, you'll stay here with Cokoloa!" β
"Huh? Why?! Little Luca was stunned, "Won't Sister Minia go in with us?" β
"Little fool!" Minia smiled and knocked her on the head, "The entrance to the cave needs to be guarded!" What if those masked people come over and put the boulder down?! β
γγγγγγγγγγγγγγ
The corridor is long and damp, and the mossy masonry shows that it has been closed for an unknown amount of time.
And...... Just as I immediately called this road when I first saw it, this road is indeed the road of Yongdao, the road of the underground mausoleum.
ββThere is still a slope of the road, although it is not obvious, but we keep walking up the road.
At the same time, along the way, I kept glad that I didn't go on my own just now.
As depicted in most legends, the mysterious underground tombs are full of mechanisms.
Not long after we all entered the door, little Luca, who was rushing in high spirits, somehow stepped on the mechanism, and immediately shot deadly arrows from both sides of the corridor, which startled little Luca.
Yes, it was a surprise.
At the same time as the cat bell let out a warning cry, the first arrow flew over little Luca's head, and at this moment, the little guy who reacted quickly did not hesitate to unfold the defensive light shield of the sky spear, and then there was a clang. All the arrows fired were easily blocked by the shield of light - "Whew! Scared Luka to death! Little Luca, whose face was pale, patted her chest with palpitations, and then bent down and touched the head of the black cat at her feet, "Thank you Catbell for reminding you!" Good and good! Without that warning from you, Luca would have died! Giggle! - Sister Sakura! Uncle Nabal! Keep up! Luca, I'll protect you with Elise! β
"Little one! You're in luck! The thrilling scene just now also made Nabal's face turn blue. Just wanted to remind you - forget it! Be careful, everyone! β
Yes! If it weren't for the fact that little Luca was only ten years old and a little tallerβwoo! If only she had been a little taller...... The consequences are really unimaginable!
After that, our journey was easyβwhether it was swords, fire, or poisonous water, Elise's defensive shields were easily blocked, and the occasional large object such as a rolling stone nail board was shattered by Mr. Nabal with his sword without hesitation.
In this Yongdao full of all kinds of Dao runes, as a Dao master, I shouldn't have to make a little effort to be the protagonist along the way...... Woo! What a guilty man!
"Sister Sakura, you've already done a great job by opening the door of the secret room! I'll leave it to Luca! "Although it is easy to say. But it was clear that maintaining this powerful shield of light also took a lot of strength from little Luca, and soon thin beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
γγγγγγγγγγγγγγγ
"Whew! Isn't it? Tired of Luca! As soon as she entered the hall, little Luca sat down on the floor with her ass tired. It's been a long time since the mechanism appeared, so I should have passed the mechanism, right?! β
"Yes! You rest - Sakura, you go take care of her, I'll go see first. Nabal said as he walked inside. By the way, light torches along the way.
"Sister Sakura......" Little Luca let me help her wipe the sweat from her forehead. Said pitifully, "Is there anything else to eat?" - Luca: I'm hungry! β
"It's been a long time since I've heard little Luca say that!" I smiled and took out some of the flattened cakes from my pocket, "Sister, I guessed you little guy must have eaten everything, didn't you?!" β
"Wow! Cake from the Academy of Magic! Little Luka snatched it with a face full of surprise, "Sister Sakura, why did you bring this?" Luca: I want to die! β
How could it not be known? Before leaving, Minia had sorted out the package - she had just prepared some jerky for little Luca. Minia said that it was to exercise the little guy, but people always felt that it was a bit excessive, and only prepared jerky for the greedy little Luca......
Consider that in the past, Lacey would steal some snacks from the kitchen every time he helped Sister Cana deliver something - anyway, I'm the little one's sister! How can she be behind her brother?
Of course, I also wanted to make the sister in front of Lacey more happy - and that would be fine.
The little guy in front of me didn't notice that I was thinking so much. He just broke out a small piece and handed it to the cat bell, and then hurriedly stuffed it all into her small-looking mouth. Instantly, the pink cheeks on both sides became bulging - it looked so cute.
If Lacey saw it, he would definitely be unable to help but bully her, right? Ha.
As Nabal lit the torches on the pillars in the middle of the hall, the surroundings grew brighter.
Now I have a chance to take a closer look around.
It was very similar to the secret room of the Lacey family, starting from the entrance, there were two rows of white stone pillars for support, but other than that, it was dimly impossible to see that there was nothing in the surrounding hall. If anything, it was that in the middle of the hall, where there should have been an altar like the secret room of the Lacey family, was now a deep black pool.
Standing quietly on the edge of the pool, staring blankly at the dark and quiet, constantly bubbling cold water in front of me, a nostalgic feeling suddenly came to my heart.
"Sister Sakura! Look at you! It's so funny! Suddenly, little Luca exclaimed, "Look here! Drawing a mouse! β
"Mouse?!" Nabal and I looked curiously at the voice.
"Catbell found it! - This rat is so big! I saw little Luca standing at the edge of the hall, constantly waving the sky spear as a light source, and under the white light of the tip of the gun, a mural of a mouse appeared on the wall of the hall, "Huh? And the cows? Suddenly, little Luca took a few steps to the left, and exclaimed, "There's a cow next to the mouse!" Yes! She simply ran away, "This is a tiger!" And rabbits! Hey...... This is ......."
"It's a dragon! Doesn't its head look like our dragon?! I approached her with a smile.
"Well...... But it's not quite the same as our dragon! β
"This is the dragon of the East!"
"Sakura? Do you know these murals? What do these animals mean?! Nabal asked curiously.
"Of course!" I gestured to the mural on the wall, "These are the guardian beasts of the East!" Call...... Kindness...... Twelve Heavenly Officials! β
"Guardian Beast?"
"Probably, right? I don't know this very clearly, anyway, it is the twelve animals that protect the East and bring happiness to the Easterners, En...... Rats, cows, tigers, rabbits, dragons, snakes, horses, sheep, monkeys, chickens, dogs, pigs, I remember these twelve, and here are six...... Little Luca, go and have a look on the other side! There must be murals of the remaining animals, right? β
However, the little one did not move, but just stood in place, and at the same time showed an unusually disappointed expression, and then asked very dissatisfied-
"Don't you have a cat?" u
