Chapter 977: Small Bridge and Flowing Water

"That's right, the temperature of this underwater cave is indeed a bit high, so maybe there will be some temperature-related treasures in the treasure spot, such as the legendary sun in the palm of your hand." Yui Matsui said with a yearning face: "In the legend of the Deep Diver clan, the great Cthulhu once extinguished a sun with a flood in another galaxy, and then made that sun into a very powerful magic prop, forcing back other old rulers many times, but unfortunately in the face of the attack of the old gods, the great Cthulhu was sealed before he could use this treasure, and the sun in his palm was lost somewhere on the earth, and there has been no news since." ”

"Of course, this is just a baseless legend, there has never been a relevant record in the official history books of our Deep Diver clan, so it's good to listen to this, don't expect to really be able to find this so-called palm sun, not to mention that even if we can find it, there is no way to take it away, after all, this is a magic weapon that only the old rulers are qualified to use, and we ordinary people may die if we touch it."

Yui Matsui said as she continued to move forward with Liu Xing and the others.

Soon Liu Xing and his party came to a gate again.

This gate is almost identical to the previous one, but this one has no keyhole.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a mechanism on this gate, I think it has something to do with the pattern on this gate." Yui Matsui said.

Liu Xing stepped forward and touched the patterns on the door, and found that these patterns were actually not obvious reliefs, so it was normal for the mechanism to open the door to be hidden in this pattern.

However, the area of this gate can be compared to the gate of some universities, and the pattern on the gate is very complicated, so it is difficult to find out for a while.

But most importantly, Liu Xing felt that MacIntyre would not have designed a mechanism that could be cracked so easily, so if Liu Xing was McIntyre, he would at least set the mechanism to be unlocked by fingerprints, rather than pressing to unlock.

"Let's first find the mechanism that may be hidden in the pattern, Liu Xing, you and Dogo Aige will be in charge of guarding the rear." Yui Matsui arranged.

said that it was to guard the rear, but in fact, Matsui Yui's purpose was to let Liu Xing and Dogo Iger paddle, after all, Liu Xing was definitely not so neat compared to other deep divers, and it was impossible to swim around on that gate like a wall tiger.

Therefore, Liu Xing and Dogo Egger were chatting in the direction they came.

As he spoke, Liu Xing deliberately asked how Dogo Iger found this place.

"Yui Matsui's father was very fond of collecting all kinds of treasure maps, but whether they were real or not, they had to be the kind of treasure maps that seemed to be drawn with intention, so according to him, these treasure maps were actually rare works of art; When I went to England from Fisherman's Village, my father-in-law didn't bring much of his other stuff, but he brought almost all of them, so these treasure maps, which range from antiquity to the last few decades, became my best reading to pass the time along the way, and I did decipher a few treasure maps. ”

"So after returning to the island country, I came out alone to determine the authenticity of these treasure maps, and I really found this place, and through the pattern on the door, it was determined that the owner of this treasure spot was MacIntyre, but there is one thing that makes me very puzzled, that is, why did MacIntyre put this treasure point underwater, you must know that MacIntyre's other treasure spots are placed on land, and it has talked to other people about this before, and it thinks that it is the most unsafe for treasure spots to be set underwater, Because even a deep diver can't read the sea thoroughly. ”

Dogo Aige dug a small hole in the ground and continued: "Liu Xing, you see, the soil in the depths of this small hole is already a little damp, which means that this treasure spot may not be long before the air humidity is too high, and even water leakage, and then this treasure spot will be destroyed." ”

Liu Xing looked at the small hole and found that the soil inside had indeed become a little damp.

"So what did McIntyre think at the time? It should have been able to guess that this was going to happen, so it should at least waterproof the floor and walls when it built this treasure spot, but I think it's pretty pristine. Liu Xing said with some doubts.

Just like Liu Xing said, this treasure spot is still very pristine, and even the ground has not been leveled, and the paintings around it are just a nail on the wall and hung up.

So no matter how Liu Xing looks at it, he feels that MacIntyre is not too concerned about this treasure spot.

After thinking for a while, Dogo Iger said: "I personally think that there are two possibilities for MacIntyre to do this, one is that McIntyre has realized that he is likely to never return before he does it, so in order to prevent these treasures from falling into the hands of others, he simply put his most precious treasures here, so that as long as it never returns, then this treasure site will be drowned in the sea sooner or later, and most of the treasures in it will either be washed away by the sea or damaged by the sea." ”

"Of course, this possibility is not high, because although MacIntyre is a big pirate who plunders ships everywhere, but MacIntyre has a very Buddhist attitude towards wealth, most of the money and treasures are distributed to his subordinates, and only those things that are very valuable, or liked by it, and it loves these things very much, so the first possibility is not high, I would rather believe that MacIntyre will give away these treasures, than believe that MacIntyre will be willing to let these treasures soak in the sea."

"So I think the second possibility is more plausible - this is just a temporary place for MacIntyre to store his treasures, because someone said that when MacIntyre was doing his last business, it would only take less than 30% of the previous preparation time to make a plan for the attack, and then set off after hastily replenishing the fleet, which is one of the reasons for McIntyre's failure; So I suspect it's just a temporary treasure spot built by MacIntyre, and it's only a rough idea because of the urgency of the build. ”

Hearing Dogo Iger say this, Liu Xing's heart suddenly chuckled, "Wait, if this second possibility is really true, then the stone bridge and the river just now must not be simple, after all, MacIntyre has limited time!" ”

Dogo Aige frowned, nodded and said: "That's true, if the stone bridge and the river are just decorations, it is indeed a little inconsistent with our previous guess, so the stone bridge and the river should be a defensive measure, but we are not sure that the stone bridge and the river let us go because of the damage, or if it deliberately let us go." ”

Dogo Iger stood up as he spoke, "So should we go over there and take another look to make sure there's nothing unusual going on?" ”

Liu Xing glanced at Yui Matsui and the others behind him, and found that they were still struggling with the gate.

Originally, Liu Xing wanted to reject Dogo Egger's proposal, because according to the basic routine of horror movies, he and Dogo Iger would be easily attacked if they broke away from the big team, but Liu Xing thought about it, the stone bridge and the river were only a few dozen meters away from here, if there was any problem, he and Dogo Iger only had to scream, and Yui Matsui would rush over to help, not to mention that Dogo Egger's current strength was not bad.

So Liu Xing pointed at Yui Matsui and said, "Then I'll go and tell Yui first, and let her pay attention to our movements?" ”

"Liu Xing, don't be so cautious all the time, okay, you have to believe in my strength." After turning into a deep diver, Dogo Iger said, "I can already talk to Yui Matsui in other aspects except that I don't know so many spells, so you don't have to worry so much, unless that stone bridge and the river can give us seconds, we will be fine." ”

Dogo Iger said and walked forward.

Although Liu Xing thinks that Dogo Iger is setting up a FG, but since Dogo Iger has already set off, he still has to keep up as his "good brother".

So Liu Xing and Dogo Aige came to the stone bridge and the river again.

It's still a scene of a small bridge and flowing water. . . Wait, people?!

Liu Xing rubbed his eyes, and suddenly found that on the other side of the stone bridge, that is, in the direction where his group came, there was suddenly a small thatched house, which seemed to be able to accommodate an adult of ordinary stature standing and lying down.

But that's not the point, the point is when did this thatched house come out?!

Of course, Dogo Iger had seen the thatched hut too, so his face became a little uneasy.

"Liu Xing, if I'm not mistaken, we didn't see that thatched house when we came over, right?" Dogo Iger gasped.

Liu Xing nodded and replied seriously: "That's right, there wasn't any thatched hut there before, not even a thatch, and I also paid attention to the situation in the vicinity along the way, and I didn't find any places where people could hide, nor did I see any boxes that could hold things." ”

"So the question is, are these things conjured out of thin air?"

With a wave of his left hand, a half-moon-shaped wave of water flew towards the thatched house.

As a result, the wave had just crossed the creek and suddenly disappeared.

"It's interesting, is this actually an illusion?"

Dogo Iger picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at it, only to see that the stone disappeared without a trace after flying over the river.

"But can this illusion still block out the sound? It stands to reason that we should be able to hear the sound of Dogo Egger's spells hitting walls and stones falling to the ground. Liu Xing asked with some confusion.

After thinking for a moment, Dogo Iger nodded and said, "It is indeed a possibility, because as long as the person who created this illusion is strong enough, he can even simulate my spells and stones in the illusion, so blocking the sound is nothing." ”

Liu Xing thought for a while, pointed behind him and said, "Then let's go back to Matsui Yui and them first, and let's find a way to solve this problem together." ”

Dogo Iger originally wanted to refuse, but after looking at the illusion, he still chose to agree with Liu Xing's idea, because it couldn't think of a way to crack the illusion, and it wasn't sure if there was a hidden killing motive in this illusion.

As a result, when Liu Xing and Dogo Aige took a few steps back, after turning a corner, they suddenly found that a thatched house appeared in front of them... And the stone bridge and the creek.

Liu Xing and Dogo Egger couldn't help but look at each other.

"Are we also in the midst of an illusion? Don't move around when you stand here, I'll come when I go. ”

As Liu Xing spoke, he turned around and walked through the bend again, and found that he had appeared on the other side of the river again.

However, Liu Xing did not see Dogo Egger.

Liu Xing immediately walked back and found that Duo Ge Iger was still looking at the scene in front of him with a confused expression.

Liu Xing sighed and said seriously: "It seems that we have still been tricked, and now the illusion is to use this bend as the boundary to determine that we are on the side of the small bridge and flowing water." ”

Liu Xing took a few steps forward and found a stone on the ground, and found a wet place on the thatched house.

It seems that the spells and stones that Doggo Aiger used just now have come to this side.

At this time, Dogo Egger, who came back to his senses, came over and said, "This shouldn't be, although my spells are not as skilled as Yui, but the damage can't be so low?" ”

As he spoke, Dogo Iger punched the thatched hut.

As a result, the thatched hut only shook slightly, and not even a single thatch fell.

The unbelieving Dogo Iger used all his strength this time, but unfortunately the thatched house still did not collapse as Dogo Iger imagined.

"Damn, what the hell is going on?!"

Dogo Aige kicked the thatched hut again, but it was still useless.

"I see, no wonder MacIntyre put this stone bridge and the river here." Liu Xing sighed and said, "It's good that it's just the two of us who came over, otherwise we would have to be wiped out this time... Of course, it may also be that there is a lot of strength in numbers. ”

Liu Xing said as he observed the surrounding situation, but except for the thatched house that suddenly appeared, Liu Xing did not find anything strange.

Regaining his composure, Dogo Aige tried to push the door of the thatched hut, only to be able to easily push it open.

Dogo Iger immediately took on a defensive stance, ready to deal with an enemy who might run out of the thatched hut.

As a result, this thatched hut was empty, there was nothing.
