Chapter 316: Investigation in the Water

"Canghai, look, there's also over there." Di Qing suddenly pointed to the side of the bamboo raft and shouted.

Li Canghai turned his head to look, and the two of them quickly found some similar scraps of paper.

"Canghai, why is there so much confetti on the surface of this lake?" Di Qing asked puzzled.

Li Canghai thought about it, tore off a corner of his clothes from his body, and put away all the confetti he had picked up.

"Let's go over there and have a look." Li Canghai looked at the dense fog around him and pointed not far away.

The two of them supported the bamboo raft, and after passing through some fallen lotus flowers, they came to the place where the French characters in the water appeared before.

Li Canghai carried the lantern and carefully searched for it on the surrounding water.

According to his guess, there would be no handwriting in the water for no reason, and there must be something strange in the water.

Li Canghai put the lantern close to the surface of the water, and soon found that there seemed to be some fine powder floating on the water, and his heart moved, so he hurriedly picked up a handful of water and put it in front of his eyes to observe it carefully.

The powder is pale green, like burnt cinders.

Li Canghai looked at the powder, recalled the appearance of French characters in the water, and suddenly fell into deep thought.

Di Qing saw that he was motionless, so he stood quietly beside him, guarding him carefully, for fear that he would fall headlong into the lake.

The strange appearance of the French characters in the lake, and the erratic font, reminded him of a similar substance - ghost fire.

Ghost fires are more common in the cemeteries than in the summer when the weather is dry.

The fire that the secular superstition believes to be a ghost light is named 'ghost fire', which is green in color, with light and no flame. Will follow people.

Li Canghai knew that the so-called ghost fire was actually phosphorus fire.

Phosphorus fire is produced because of the presence of phosphorus in human bones. When phosphorus reacts with water alkali, it produces a chemical reaction, which turns into a flammable gas. Because the phosphorus fire is lighter, it will follow when people move around.

"I see." Li Canghai figured out the key to it, and suddenly laughed.

"Canghai, what did you find?" Di Qing laughed when he saw him talking to himself, and asked hurriedly.

"An interesting phenomenon, I'll tell you later, you'll be very interested." Li Canghai smiled slightly.

Di Qing blinked a few times and said in surprise: "Really? I can't wait! ”

Li Canghai smiled. So he propped up the bamboo raft and leaned towards the shore.

However, it didn't go far when the raft slammed, as if it had hit some kind of object.

"What's going on? How can you hit something in the lake? Di Qing said in some surprise.

The two of them are now in the lake, more than ten zhang away from the shore, and there is no prominent rockery in the lake, how could they hit something?

Li Canghai squatted down and stretched out his arm to grope in the water. Soon he touched a cylindrical object in the water.

"Stakes?" A word suddenly appeared in Li Canghai's mind.

There are wooden stakes buried in the water!

After Li Canghai was sure that the thing was a wooden stake, his mind turned quickly, and he hurriedly flew forward to find it.

Sure enough, from the center of the lake to the shore. There is a stake every few zhang.

The stakes were so deep above the water that they were hard to spot unless you saw them with your own eyes. There are so many wooden stakes hidden beneath the calm waters.

"Canghai, how can there be so many wooden stakes here?" Di Qing also felt a little strange.

Li Canghai narrowed his eyes. He pointed to the shore seven or eight feet away and said, "Qing'er." At this distance, you might jump to the shore? ”

Di Qing looked at the distance, then jumped up, like a dragonfly dotting the water, landed on the shore, and then jumped into the water, and returned to the bamboo raft.

"How? Am I amazing? Di Qing said triumphantly.

Li Canghai smiled slightly and said: "Your light skills are unparalleled in the world, and it is very easy to fly over, but what if you tread the waves?" ”

"Riding the waves?" Di Qing was stunned, she looked at the shore far away, and frowned slightly: "This ...... No way. No matter how clever the light exercises are, it is impossible to walk on the surface of the water easily. ”

Speaking of this, Di Qing's eyes suddenly widened, staring at Li Canghai and said, "Could it be that you can do such a magical light skill?" ”

Li Canghai smiled at him, then raised his foot and stepped on the surface of the lake, and then walked towards the shore step by step.

Di Qing opened her mouth in astonishment, and when she saw that what Li Canghai was stepping on was actually a wooden stake, she suddenly came to her senses, and she hurriedly followed behind Li Canghai and walked excitedly on the wooden stake.

On the shore, all the people who saw Li Canghai and Di Qing coming over were stunned, and the two of them were like a pair of fairy children and jade girls dancing from the clouds, which was particularly eye-catching.

Even Li Qi looked at the two of them with some surprise, Li Canghai didn't have martial arts, how could he do it?

"It's so fun, hee-hee." Di Qing jumped to the shore, clapped her hands excitedly, and giggled.

"Canghai, I didn't expect you kid to be a hidden master!" Huang Fukun walked over and said in surprise.

Li Canghai shook his head and said with a smile: "The general said that he was joking, I only know some three-legged cat kung fu, how can I be a master?" The reason why I was able to walk on the waves was because there was a mystery hidden in the water. ”

"Oh? What mystery? Huangfu Kunqi said.

Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said, "The general can check it out for himself, so he naturally knows." ”

Huang Fukun thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll check it out." ”

With that, Huang Fukun walked to the shore, he looked at the lake, and then jumped directly into the water without any hesitation.

Soon, Huang Fukun felt a wooden stake nailed into the mud from the water, and he exclaimed: "It turns out that there is a wooden stake nailed under the water, no wonder you can walk on the surface of the water!" ”

"Yes, that's why they're able to walk on the water." Li Canghai walked up to the captured injured Daoist, squinted his eyes and said, "In order to show your own miracles, you have indeed taken great pains!" ”

The injured Taoist stared at him with resentful eyes, looking at that expression, he couldn't wait to eat Li Canghai raw, he gritted his teeth and said: "Li Canghai, if you dare to go against the sky, sooner or later you will be punished by heaven!" ”

"Oh? Heavenly punishment? Do you mean the Celestial Venerable? It's a pity that I've seen through your tricks. Li Canghai said disapprovingly.

The injured Daoist's pupils shrank, and he said coldly, "Do you think I will believe you?" ”

"Hah, then let me expose your tricks." Li Canghai was full of confidence.

At this time, Li Longji and a group of ministers also came over.

Everyone saw the arrival of Tianzun and the law in the water, and their hearts were somewhat shocked, and now when they heard that Li Canghai was going to debunk the conspiracy, everyone was suddenly full of curiosity.

"Now, let me debunk your first trick." Li Canghai said lightly: "As the so-called 'strange power chaotic gods', there have never been ghosts and gods in this world, and the same is true for Tianzun's appearance. (To be continued.) )
