Chapter 111: The Vicissitudes of Life (Three Watches)
Although she knew that Shen Yuexue would not lie to herself, the scenery in front of her really made it impossible to associate this place with the desert where the yellow sand was rolling, although the earth was cracked, although there was no grass, but it was clearly the whole land, not a desert with fine sand rolling.
"What's wrong? How did this desert become like this? Zhou Zitao asked puzzled, and handed Shen Yuexue's shoes back.
"This thing is actually like this, this is the Lock Demon Tower a thousand years ago, at that time, the third floor was what you looked like in front of you, but this drought lasted for a long time, and after a few hundred years, it will completely become a desert." Shen Yuexue said solemnly.
"Then, then why do we see the Lock Demon Tower a thousand years ago, it's really incredible." Zhou Zitao expressed skepticism.
"Because the designer of this Lock Demon Tower wants to tell us a very important information, so that we can see the scenery of a thousand years ago, I believe that this information is likely to be related to the life and death of the Panshan Sect." Shen Yuexue continued.
"Is it about the life and death of the Panshan Sect?" Zhou Zitao's spirit instantly tensed when he listened.
"That's right, he probably wants to tell us, why the Panshan Sect is in such decline, and what happened in between?" Shen Yuexue's expression was also a little solemn.
"So, how do we know?" Zhou Zitao's mood was a little anxious, he couldn't wait a few hundred years to see what had changed, even if he was willing, his longevity was not enough.
"Simple, do you see that withered grass?" Shen Yuexue asked.
"See!" Zhou Zitao saw that the dry earth. A withered grass lay on the ground.
"You go there and dig deep, I won't let you stop, you don't stop." Shen Yue Snow Road.
Zhou Zitao didn't say a word when he heard this, he took out his saber and dug it up at the ground, the sword was very sharp, even if Zhou Zitao had no spiritual power, a sword could still drive a large piece of soil to fly. After a while, Zhou Zitao was no longer visible. Shen Yuexue sat next to the big pit. Thinking hard......
Suddenly. Shen Yuexue saw a white object contained in the soil and thrown up, Shen Yuexue stretched out her hand and put the white object into her hand, which was very smooth. Peel off the dirt little by little. Revealed its true face.
Shen Yuexue was taken aback. It's unlikely, probably not, this thing shouldn't be here, no matter how you look at it. Think about it. The appearance of shells in the desert is also too, could it be that the people who once entered here were left behind? Before Shen Yuexue could finish her suspicions, she saw that another shell had also been dug up.
One, two, three...... Twenty, twenty-one. Shen Yuexue lined up the shells she had picked up, facing them in a daze, and at this moment, Zhou Zitao had already dug to a depth of more than 20 meters underground, so he didn't dare to continue down, because there were always soil and rocks sliding around, and if he dug down, Zhou Zitao was worried that he would be buried by the soil and rocks falling from above.
"No, if you dig again, it will collapse!"
A call brought back Shen Yuexue's thoughts, glanced at Zhou Zitao and said, "You come up first!" ”
Although Zhou Zitao's spiritual power was sealed and he couldn't fly with his sword, he could still climb up with the help of this method by inserting the blade of his sword into the soil layers on both sides. When Zhou Zitao crawled out of the pit with a disgraced face, he saw a bunch of strange things in front of Shen Yuexue, and the whole person was in a daze.
"Did you find anything?" Zhou Zitao saw Shen Yuexue's contemplative face, and asked with some hesitation.
"Not yet, I still have some things I haven't figured out." Shen Yue Snow Road.
"Shall I continue digging this pit?" Zhou Zitao asked.
Shen Yuexue took a look at this big pit, and at a glance, she knew that Zhou Zitao was lazy, and the mouth of this pit was too small and easy to collapse. So Shen Yuexue took out the mountain opening stick, and with a stick down, the surrounding of the pit collapsed and became bigger, but the pit just now was half filled by the soil layer.
"Let's dig it up!" Shen Yue Snow Road.
"Wait, there's something I don't understand, I need to ask a thing or two." Zhou Zitao said a little stunned.
"You say!" Shen Yuexue said impatiently.
"Your stick is worth my hard work for half a day, why don't you dig it, but me to dig it?" Zhou Zitao suddenly realized that this spiritual power was sealed by himself, but the little beauty didn't, her one spell was worth her hard day. Zhou Zitao felt that he had been pitted.
"Because, I'm in charge of thinking." Shen Yue Snow Road.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Zitao still doesn't quite understand.
"Because your brain is too stupid, if you are responsible for thinking, I believe that there will be no one hundred and eighty years, and we will not expect to go out."
"......" Zhou Zitao had to admit that this seemed to make sense.
"And how long am I going to dig up?" Zhou Zitao asked with some grievances.
"Dig until I can figure out the answer."
Hearing this, Zhou Zitao sighed helplessly, picked up his mud-stained sword again, and dug it up.
……
"Vicissitudes of life, I figured it out, it turned out to be vicissitudes!"
When Zhou Zitao dug the big pit as deep as just now, Shen Yuexue stood up violently and shouted loudly, startling Zhou Zitao, and hurriedly looked to see if there was any dirt around him that had been shaken down by this high pitch.
"What do you think?" Zhou Zitao quickly climbed up and asked excitedly.
"I understand, what is the setting of the third level, it turns out to be the vicissitudes of life!" Shen Yuexue said that she still couldn't hide her excitement.
"I still don't quite understand what that means." Zhou Zitao asked.
"Do you remember when I said that there is no night, only day?" Shen Yuexue asked.
"You said it was because the designers did it on purpose." Zhou Zitao replied.
"That's right, I'm wondering, we walked through the first layer of earth and stone walls, the second layer is molten earth, this lock demon tower has a total of five layers, the first layer is earth, the second layer is fire, according to reason, the third layer should be water!"
Shen Yuexue said excitedly, Zhou Zitao was also comprehending, it turned out that the five layers of this lock demon tower also corresponded to an attribute, that's right, according to the ranking, this layer should indeed be water.
"However, this layer is a desert, and when it comes to attributes, it is still soil, so I thought I had guessed wrong, and it wasn't until the appearance of these shells that I understood!"
"Shells? What is a shell? Zhou Zitao asked without answering.
"Isn't it strange that shells are shellfish that grow in rivers and lakes, and their shells appear in the desert?" Shen Yuexue asked, and Zhou Zitao nodded.
"This shows that this place should have been a lake a thousand years ago."
Shen Yuexue's words are really Zhou Zitao's scorched outside and tender inside, a lake, turned into a desert? This, how is this possible? It's incredible.
"This, unlikely, right?" Zhou Zitao expressed weak doubts.
"Nothing is impossible, this is an artificial space, where there is no precipitation, there is no night, and the lake eventually dries up without precipitation and constantly evaporating under the long-term heat. Then because of the high temperature, there is no vegetation protection, and combined with weathering, the desert is finally formed. ”
What Shen Yuexue said was very reasonable, and her words were full of confidence, but Zhou Zitao said that he didn't understand a word, and he didn't dare to say it, for fear of embarrassment, what is the amount of precipitation, what is evaporation, and what protection is there?
"That's why it wasn't until after the storm that the surface was revealed, deep under the sand, that we discovered the secret. This designer is too perverted, only those who survive the storm have a chance, and only a chance to see through it all! Whether you can figure it out or not, not necessarily. Shen Yuexue sighed.
"Wait, wait...... You mean, it's just that the storm blew the sand away, and we didn't come to a thousand years ago?! Zhou Zitao suddenly interjected.
"Well, of course, how can it be so easy to traverse such a high-tech thing?" Shen Yuexue smiled cunningly.
"What about the life and death of the Panshan Sect?" Zhou Zitao felt that he was struck by lightning.
"Of course, I lied to you!" Shen Yuexue's success in one sentence made matters worse.
Small theater
Zhou Zitao: Why do you say that you have traveled to a thousand years ago?!
Shen Yuexue: Because I think it's romantic and emotional.
Zhou Zitao: Why do you say that it is related to the life and death of the Panshan Sect?!
Shen Yuexue: Because I think it's exciting, it's thrilling enough.
Zhou Zitao: Why do you want me to dig a pit?!!
Shen Yuexue: Because I don't want to listen to your nonsense, interrupt my train of thought. So, get you a job.
Zhou Zitao: ......
Three watches, ask for recommendation tickets, don't rest too late, even if you stay up late to see the gods. (To be continued.) )
