Seventeen: Stone Tower at the bottom of the lake

Xue'er was stunned for a moment, Pi Yizi suddenly stretched out her hand, and the two daggers inserted in Xue'er's waist fell into Pi Yizi's hands.

These two daggers are swarthy and swarthy, and they are the two that Xue'er and Dong'er forged in the valley, and they have been carrying them on Xue'er since they left the valley.

He snatched the dagger and praised it: "Well, this baby is good, it's a good thing, let's give it to the old man!"

Xue'er saw Pi Yizi's appearance, and already knew his heart, thinking that he must be teasing himself again, so he deliberately pretended not to care, only smiled at him faintly, and then turned his eyes to the lake, at this time the little dragon turtle was surfacing, it shouted to Xue'er: "Xue'er, you also come down, this lake is very hot, it's so comfortable to come down and take a bath!"

Xue'er really needs to take a good shower, but there is a Pi Yizi there, but it is not very convenient.

Pi Yizi thought that he had snatched Xue'er's dagger, Xue'er didn't know what it would look like, but she didn't expect her to have a light face, and felt particularly boring, he threw the dagger into the air, and then reached out to catch it while sighing, and said: "This thing doesn't seem to be a good baby, since you don't like it, I'll throw it for you!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand suddenly, and the two daggers flew out of his hand and fell far into the lake. Cher was taken aback, but it was too late to stop her.

Xue'er was in a hurry, her face was blue and white for a while, but the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to be in a hurry.

Seeing Xue'er's expression, Pi Yizi finally felt happy, and said before Xue'er: "If you want to, go down to the lake to fish by yourself, I want to sleep!"

Pi Yizi waved her hand to Xue'er, walked towards the cabin by the lake, and turned around halfway to Xue'er, and shouted to Xue'er: "The more the lake is in the middle of the lake, the hotter it becomes, you must pay attention!"

Staring at Pi Yizi into the cabin, Cher walked quickly to a big rock by the lake, she took off her coat, revealing a pink underwear, her bumpy figure was even more revealed, and even the little dragon turtle was a little distracted.

"What can you know about a little turtle?" said unceremoniously as Xue'er spoke, and quickly jumped into the lake.

The lake water is really hot, the lake water penetrates Xue'er's underwear, kissing every inch of her whole body, warm and very comfortable. She looked down into the water, and she was surprised to see that her eyes couldn't see below the surface.

She held her breath and plunged into the water, diving towards the place where the dagger fell, as soon as she entered the lake, the scenery under the surface of the water actually appeared clearly in her eyes, it turned out that only by diving into the water can she see the underwater world, is this because she can't be affected by the reflection of the lake surface underwater?

She quickly saw where the two daggers were, and quickly dived over. Sure enough, the more you go to the middle of the lake, the higher the temperature of the lake water, and there are fish swimming in the water in such a hot lake.

She quickly picked up the dagger under the water, quickly floated to the surface of the lake, and breathed in the air on the lake.

At this time, the picture of her just jumping into the lake suddenly appeared in her mind: the little dragon turtle was fascinated by her, and after being scolded by her, she got into the water without saying a word.

She searched the surface of the lake, and saw no trace of the little dragon turtle, so she took a deep breath and dived into the water to try to find the trace of the little dragon turtle, although the lake was small, but the distance she could see was limited, so she had to surface the lake again, there was some distance from the shore of the lake, the water temperature of the lake was slightly higher than the water on the shore, and the water temperature on the shore of the lake was suitable for bathing.

I haven't been able to take a good bath since I came out of the valley these days, and now that there is such a good natural hot spring lake, it's time to freshen up.

After a long while, Cher finally took a shower and was about to go ashore, but there was still no sign of the dragon turtle.

The location where the little dragon turtle was before it disappeared was quite far from the shore, which means that the water temperature there was very high, could it be that the little dragon turtle was burned at that time? If that was the case, wouldn't the little dragon turtle have been cooked at this moment?

The more Cher thought about it, the more worried she became, and she decided to dive to the surface of the water where the little dragon turtle had disappeared first.

The further Cher swam, the warmer the water became, and then she felt hot, and she kept diving into the water to check it, and then she swam a little further on the surface of the water where the little dragon turtle disappeared.

The lake water is getting hotter and hotter, Xue'er can barely support it, she gritted her teeth, she needs to find the little dragon turtle and leave here quickly, otherwise she will definitely be boiled by the lake water after a long time, and even boiled into soup.

She took another deep breath and dived into the water, where she could no longer see a single fish creature swimming around, only in warm water.

Xue'er was burned by the hot water and her brain was a little groggy, and then she vaguely felt that the cool breath in her stomach began to move, and the cold breath gradually expanded, and then the cool breath swam all over her body, and she gradually felt that the water was no longer so hot, and her brain was clear.

At the bottom of the lake not far ahead, there was a ziggurat-shaped stone tower that appeared in Xue'er's eyes, and the ziggur-shaped stone tower was only two meters high, which was not very big.

Xue'er took a closer look, only to see that the bluestone of the tower body was carved with dense strange and small patterns, not like words or pictures, but also revealed some strangeness, and then carefully looked at those small patterns and seemed to be moving, but it did seem to be only a static pattern.

Xue'er circled around such a small golden stone tower for a while, and finally found the door of this stone tower, and it turned out that half of the stone tower was still buried under the ground at the bottom of the lake.

Most of the doors of the stone tower are buried in the ground, and the part left on the ground is not large, it looks like a doorway, and Xue'er probed in to watch, but saw the little dragon turtle lying on the ground in the tower, as if it was sleeping.

Xue'er swam in from the doorway like a fish, came to the little dragon turtle, lifted it up, and said to it angrily: "Okay, you came here to sleep, and I am worried!"

The little dragon turtle opened his eyes in surprise, and said as he struggled, "You let me down, Xue'er, how did you come here?"

Xue'er said angrily: "You haven't come up in the lake for half a day, I'm worried that you will be scalded to death by this hot water, I knew you were sleeping here, so I didn't venture to come here to find you!"

It's a bit like the legendary dinosaur egg, but the "dinosaur" in this egg has already broken out of its shell, leaving only the broken eggshell here. The eggshell has criss-crossed red veins, which seem to have been left by the growth of the animals in this shell. Cher also found a strange pattern on the eggshell that was the same as on the tower outside.

The little dragon turtle swam over and said, "Hey, don't look at it, you haven't answered me yet, I can't even come here, how did you swim in?"

Xue'er replied, "Little Dragon Turtle, do you know what this eggshell is all about?

The little dragon turtle said lightly: "Of course, who else will it be besides me, this is my home." ”

"I'm the only one who can come and go here, and if I'm hurt outside, I'll recover as soon as I come back to this tower and get some sleep, and I'll just come back for a nap today. ”

"Can you come in here, aren't you afraid of the hot water? And you seem to be breathing freely here, were you born in this lake?"

When the little dragon turtle asked, Xue'er suddenly remembered that she couldn't breathe in the water, but now in such water, not only did she not feel hot, but she also breathed easily, as if she was originally a creature here.

Is my mystery related to this lake? Cher suddenly became very interested in this lake.

"Is there anything else like this in this lake?" can you take me to see it?" asked Cher.

The little dragon turtle shook his head blankly and said: "No, but there are two places at the bottom of this lake that I haven't been to, one place leads to the underground river, and the water of the underground river is extremely cold, so I don't want to go there, and the other place is the center of the lake, only there seems to be a stone tower like this in the middle of the lake, but the temperature there is too high, and even I can't go." ”

"But if you can come to me, maybe you can go to the middle of the lake, or you can try it?"

After the little dragon turtle said this, Xue'er was really moved, but there is still a big distance from the center of the lake, and the temperature there is almost boiling water, the little dragon turtle is a place where the original inhabitants of this lake dare not go, if you really want to swim there, won't you have to be cooked by this water?

But there are a lot of uncertainties in everything, so it should be okay to give it a try, and if you feel hot after swimming, you can swim back again.

There seemed to be some secret hidden in the middle of the lake, which attracted Xue'er deeply, she finally made up her mind, turned to the little dragon turtle and said, "You wait for me here, I'll try to see if I can swim over." ”

She swam out of the tower like a fish, and swam in the direction of the center of the lake, where the heat seemed to be greater, and the water in the middle of the lake was even hotter, and the water there seemed to be really boiling.
