Chapter 25: Out of the Mystery (Ask for Recommendations, Collect, Ask Editors to Sign Contracts!)

Yuan Hong's gaze swept around again, and suddenly, his attention was deeply attracted by the cyan stone ten zhang away. Without hesitation, he walked briskly to the large stone under the towering tree. When he got closer, he looked intently, and it turned out that this bluestone was a stone tablet. The lower pedestal of the stele is a dragon turtle lying on the ground, the dragon turtle is four-legged on the ground, its head is stretched forward and slightly raised, the surface of the hard armor on the back has hexagonal tortoiseshell patterns, and its facial features look particularly expressive.

Touching the head of the stele, Yuan Hong squatted down and carefully looked at the red inscription on the stele.

"The sun and the moon dance together, and three dynasties can be achieved. Hundreds of streams enter the mountains, holding the world. ”

Liang Yun'er couldn't help but read aloud. She frowned and muttered, "What do you mean by these sixteen words?"

Yuan Hong didn't make a sound, still staring at the inscription, immersed in thought.

At this moment, Liang Yun'er's father interjected: "According to the literal meaning of the inscription, it seems to remind us that we must achieve the strange celestial phenomenon of the sun and the moon shining together, and when the time is ripe, we can leave this place." ”

Yuan Hong shook his head, pressed his kneecaps and straightened up, and said slowly: "I don't agree with Shibo's literal interpretation, if this is the case, it is impossible for the culprit to get out quickly." ”

Liang's father paused and said, "Maybe the tip of the inscription is only one of the ways to leave the country, and the murderer uses another method. ”

Smiling politely, Yuan Hong said slowly: "I don't rule out this possibility, but I don't think it's very likely." When I walked over just now, I found a few sparse traces of blood on the ground, until the location of the stele, the blood stains disappeared abruptly, which indicates that the murderer activated the hidden mechanism near the stele. Since there are mechanisms here that can easily send people out, where do you need to achieve what sun and moon dance together?"

Seeing that Yuan Hong paused, Father Liang nodded in agreement: "What you said does make some sense. Let me think about itβ€”this inscription should be a hidden word in a word. The sun and the moon dance together, it should refer to the Ming character, the three dynasties can be completed, that is, the three days can be completed, implying the crystal word. Baixi enters the mountains, it may be a Shanzi character, and holding Qiankun in your hand should be a fist word. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Hong was silent for a while, and then he was overjoyed, and praised: "Shibo really has excellent comprehension, it seems that this is indeed the case." In my opinion, this inscription seems to hint at something to the murderer, maybe it is the means of killing, or maybe it is the timing of killing. ”

Brushing the half-finger-length black beard on his chin, Liang's father's expression was quite serious, and he pondered for a long time, and he said seriously: "As far as I know, the use of stone tablet inscriptions to indicate killing people is often organized behind it, and it can never be an individual act - it seems that the world is going to be in chaos again." Hey!"

The words entered the ears and stirred up a thousand waves. Yuan Hong's heart trembled, and he muttered: Successively tempting people to die in different places, the methods are so similar, and the characteristics of the deceased after death are highly consistent, I originally deduced that the murderer was the same person, but the fact of the inscription and Shibo's emotion made me wake up like a dream. Since it is a group action, its motive is by no means as simple as ordinary fanatics greedy for money and sex, and there must be a huge conspiracy and interest relationship behind it.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, a wild bark interrupted Yuan Hong's thoughts. He looked at it and saw Liang Yun'er jumping towards a little black dog lively. That's right, that's Rhubarb! She excitedly took Rhubarb into her arms and bumped its head with her soft, slightly pointed chin.

After being away for so long, no one knows where the rhubarb has gone. But the careful Yuan Hong suddenly found that there was a touch of orange on the corner of its mouth. Dilating his nostrils, he smelled an unusual smell of blood. The smell of blood seemed to be mixed with the intensity of wine, and it was like the cold acid mixed with vinegar.

Mysteriously leaning towards Liang Yun'er, wiping the corners of Rhubarb's mouth with his fingers, Yuan Hong smiled and said: "I once learned about such a legendary poisonous snake in the book "Interesting Things of Mountains and Seas", called the dove-crowned snake. Its head resembles that of a crested dove, and its vocalization is particularly poignant, most notably the orange-yellow color of its blood. As long as you have taken the snake's gall bladder or blood, you can resist the poison of half of the poison in the world. ”

After blinking several times, Liang Yun'er obviously understood what Yuan Hong meant, and said slowly: "I'm afraid we can't find the body of the dove-crowned snake now, or maybe it has already entered Rhubarb's stomach." ”

Yuan Hong squeezed his eyes and smiled: "This is easy to do, kill the dog to take blood, and then use it to drink." ”

Liang Yun'er deliberately hugged the little black dog tightly, pouting, "No!"

After laughing, Yuan Hong bluntly said that he would let go of the rhubarb first, and then use the knife when he walked out of the secret realm. And the rhubarb seemed to sense Yuan Hong's unfriendliness, so he broke free from Liang Yun'er's arms and rushed straight to Yuan Hong.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, Yuan Hong immediately dodged and escaped. Just when he was deeply puzzled, he suddenly found that Rhubarb stopped on the head of the stele, and kept sucking and licking the words on the stele, and sniffed with his nose from time to time.

Almost everyone was stunned. Yuan Hong pondered for a long time, and then his eyes lit up, and he immediately put his nose to the inscription and sniffed it carefully.

Sure enough, the inscription contains an extremely light scent of rosemary. Without saying a word, he quickly ran back to the place where he had fallen, picked up a handful of earth rich in magnetic mystery ore, and quickly turned back to the stone tablet.

Seeing Yuan Hong's abnormal behavior, Liang's father was puzzled for a while, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Liang Yun'er waving his hand. Because only she knows Yuan Hong best, she knows very well that Yuan Hong, who has forgotten everything around him, is the clearest of him.

With the rising breeze and the heart-rending barking of the little black dog, Yuan Hong threw the sticky soil high, and when it fell back slightly, he struggled to hit the light ball. Suddenly, the earth was engulfed in light, and it exploded, spilling out bits of light. The little bit of sparkle is like a firefly flying freely, which is dizzying. At this moment, Yuan Hong finally confirmed the answer in his heart - Shandi corresponds to the origin of the magnetic maze mine, and the crystal transparency is the characteristic of the magnetic maze mineral particles, and grasping the magnetic maze in the center of the fist and then throwing it down is the way to solve the puzzle.

Just when the father and daughter of the Liang family were dumbfounded, the countless "fireflies" were like moths fighting fire, flying into the inscription and burrowing into the indentation of the lettering, leaving no trace in the blink of an eye. The only thing visible is the shiny inscription that is connected to each other in a bright line.

Seeing this, Yuan Hong quickly hugged the rhubarb into his arms, and urgently waved his hand to signal the Liang family's father and daughter to get close to the stone stele. Suddenly, Yuan Hong felt that the bones of his body were as if they were supported by a sudden spring, cold and piercing, and at the moment when his feet left the ground, three flashes flashed in front of his eyes one after another, and the flashes were as fast as lightning in a gallop. This scene made him feel inexplicable, as if he had been spied on. Compared to the previous hard fall to the ground, this time, his feet landed steadily. He rubbed his eyes and found that under his feet was the shore of Wangjiang Lake, and the bright and slightly hazy last quarter moon was reflected in the lake.

Looking up at the moonlit sky, Yuan Hong meditated: The last quarter moon appeared in the sky, indicating that it was the time of the child at this moment. When Yun'a and I first arrived here, it was the unitary hour, and there was a difference of 3 hours. However, I was in the maze for at most an hour, so why was there such a big contrast?

After thinking about it, Yuan Hong never understood what force caused the spatial transformation and time deviation, and the last time he was so confused, it could be traced back to the dream of obtaining the Linglong Pendant.

"Senior brother, so you're here!"

At this moment, Liang Yun'er took her father's arm and walked towards Yuan Hong comfortably by the crystal moonlight. According to her, she was teleported to a place alone, and not far away, she found her father and then Yuan Hong.

In view of the fact that it was late at night, the three of them did not want to delay any longer, and immediately set off to rush back to Liang's house. On the road, the two young and the old man talked and laughed, and they were happy. Taking this opportunity, Yuan Hong expressed many doubts in his heart, for example, why is it called rhubarb when it is obviously a little black dog? Another example, Liang Yun'er has repeatedly reported that it is difficult for her Baimei Xingjing to break out, and she feels that she always lacks a driving force, but in the face of the walking corpse, she actually saved the crisis with the big explosion, why is this?

Liang Yun'er smiled and told him that he called the dog rhubarb because it was originally yellow hair, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But two years ago, a murderous demon with yellow hair appeared in the city, so as not to hate the house and Wu, she used dye to dye the rhubarb's hair black. Because the material of the dye is particularly good, even if the rhubarb falls into the water, the black brilliance will not fade at all. As for why her Hundred Charm Star Crystal could suddenly explode, she herself didn't know. After being stunned in the secret realm and waking up again, she felt that there was an endless amount of power in her body. According to her guess, it may have something to do with the environmental assistance of the secret realm.

The chat table nodded in agreement, and Yuan Hong thought to himself: Hearing her say this, I understand that it is my treasure pendant that plays a role. It seems that this is no ordinary treasure, it must have a unique and glamorous side, and even more, it also has a very special origin. Hey, I'll find a way to summon the old man in the pendant another day and have a good chat with him.

After returning to Liang's house, having a hurried meal and taking a cold shower, Yuan Hong came to the guest room that had been arranged, blew out the lamp and lay down.

Before the drowsiness came, Yuan Hong silently recited the mantra on the inscription and pondered: The first layer of the inscription's riddle is the four characters of Ming, Jing, Shan, and Fist, and the second layer of riddle is the method of exiting the country, so is there a third or even fourth layer of solutions? Is the stele left by the murderous organization, and if so, why do they leave a way to get out of the maze? Obviously the organization can teach the method of exiting the country, so why do they betray themselves in one fell swoop? Could it be that this organization has any more vicious conspiracy and greater ambition than the murder itself?
