Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Pillar of Bones

The appearance of the male loss astrolabe undoubtedly brought new hope, but it also made Yan Yu tangled.

He felt injustice as to why his father warned all the people of Longfu Mountain not to enter the dangerous place, but did not include his own son.

Moreover, the mechanism at the entrance is the Falling Astrolabe, so it is no wonder that Zhao Tongyi will take the trouble to invite Yan Yu to join, and at this moment, Yan Yu finally knows the reason.

Maybe this is the real entrance to the underground of the Dragon King Temple, the reason why Zhao Tongyi invited Yan Yu is not because Yan Yu is not afraid of the blood rat woman, but because Yan Yu is the only person in Longfu Mountain who can unlock the falling astrolabe in addition to the old ancestor!

Yan Yu hates his father's "Wei Guangzheng", and always sacrifices himself to complete the extremely illusory "mission" in his mouth, and even "sacrifices" his son.

But since Yan Yu has come here, he can't just leave, his strong character and consistent style of doing things don't allow him to escape.

What's more, his father Yan Zhen cleared out the abandonment of him and his mother, and he was obedient to Yan Yu in other matters, and it could be seen that he was desperately trying to compensate Yan Yu.

When everyone rejected Yan Yu and wanted to drive Yan Yu, an "outsider", down the mountain, it was his father who withstood the pressure and kept Yan Yu, and even preferred to give up the position of head of the school.

And his father, who has never broken the rules, the only time he made an exception was for Yan Yu, and he gave Yan Yu to his ancestors to teach him extremely unruly.

Of course, Yan Yu didn't think about it, maybe his father sent him to the ancestor just to let him learn the astrolabe, he had long expected that Yan Yu would definitely come back and track him down here.

The reason why he was asked to learn the Falling Astrolabe was just so that one day, Yan Yu would be able to open this door.

This thought made Yan Yu feel very angry, and he wanted to leave everything behind, no longer investigate everything about his father, and go away to live the life he wanted.

However, his attention was all attracted by the falling astrolabe, just like an old pedant who has been studying the same problem all his life, and when he encounters the problem, he does not want to let it go.

Yan Yu opened his palm, pressed it on the center of the astrolabe, and pushed hard, and there was really a clicking sound, under the moonlight, the silver thread began to flicker, and the cloud book engraving on it was also constantly distorted, as if the ancients were arranging movable type plates.

He knew that this was indeed a falling astrolabe.

This is a skill that the ancestor taught most attentively, Yan Yu has great confidence, but confidence and strength are two different things after all.

Yan Yu tried for a while, and found that this falling astrolabe was more difficult to solve than he imagined, not because there were too many blocks, but because the trajectory was too complicated, interlocking, and one careless would be forced into a dead end.

He used to be an extremely withdrawn child, on Longfu Mountain, he didn't have any friends, only the falling astrolabe could relieve his boredom, and it was this kind of temperament that allowed him to advance by leaps and bounds.

Maybe he was too concerned about the things behind the door, and he was a little anxious in his mentality, Yan Yu stopped his hand, calmed down, closed his eyes and meditated, adjusted his emotions, and then began to move the grid above.

Seeing that the east was pale, Yan Yu also sped up, because he knew that Qin Dayou and the others might not keep vigil, but they would definitely send someone to check during the day, and it would be troublesome to be found at that time.

Beads of sweat the size of rice grains kept pouring out of his forehead, penetrating the gauze on his face and irritating his wounds.

But he entered the realm of selflessness, and finally at a certain moment, he heard the long-awaited "click", as if a thief was picking the lock, and after countless attempts, he finally touched Ji Huang!

The astrolabe finally lined up a straight midline, exhaled a mouthful of turbid air that had been held for a long time, Yan Yu pressed his palm to the center of the astrolabe, pressed it hard, the midline separated, and the door opened!

A stream of water vapor came to the face, and there seemed to be several diesel engines behind the dark door, rumbling non-stop.

The sound seemed to reverberate and intensify in a large confined space, the reverberation was heavy, and the cold, damp air was constantly gushing out.

Yan Yu didn't feel panicked, his heart was full of excitement and excitement, because he could feel that there should be a rushing underground river inside!

If you can find it, you will not only be able to solve the puzzle, but also completely solve the drought problem in ten miles and eight towns!

Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Yan Yu didn't stop, turned on the flashlight, and got in.

Behind the door is a beam, made of iron and wood, only half a meter wide, rickety, there are no guardrails on both sides, like a suspension bridge, a flashlight shines, the surroundings are dark, and the border cannot be seen.

There was a whining sound from under his feet, but the sound of water seemed to come from overhead, and Yan Yu was also surprised.

Although this immortal statue is very tall, it is half cut into the earth, half cut into the ground, Yan Yu enters from the position of the belt, and it is only three or four meters high from the ground, and the sound of water comes from the top of his head, which means that the dark river crosses his head?

Although the upper body of the immortal statue leans against the mountain, it is common sense for the water to flow low, and even if this dark river crosses the mountain, it should flow downward, unless there are manpower to divert it, it is not scientific at all.

The feet were bottomless, Yan Yu was also frightened, and walked forward along the beam suspension bridge, and after about ten meters, the flashlight finally shone on a platform.

On the platform is a giant dragon, the dragon head hangs low, the sound of the water is loud, Yan Yu left the suspension bridge, got on the platform, and finally saw clearly, the original water flow came down from the top of the head, along the dragon, from the dragon head spurted, there was a stone groove to catch the water flow, guided to the mouth of the fairy outside.

And the scene in front of Yan Yu made Yan Yu full of shock, and his steps were a little hesitant.

Under the dragon's head, there was a corpse, because of the humid air, the corpse had been severely decayed, and white bones were exposed in many places.

The man carried the dragon head with his body, as if trying to raise it so that the water could flow into the stone trough.

It can be said that if there is no person holding the faucet, the water will flow directly to the bottomless abyss under your feet, and the fairy will have no water!

The dragon's head was carved from a boulder, and it was difficult to support it with manpower, and the body was almost decaying, but it was not crushed and broken.

That's because the corpse is holding a giant sword, and it is that giant sword that holds the dragon's head!

I don't know what material this giant sword is, although it is seriously curved, it is not corroded, and it can support a heavy dragon head, it is definitely a rare treasure!

However, Yan Yu didn't think about this at all, because his attention was all on the corpse!

Although the clothes on his body were already tattered, Yan Yu could still roughly tell that it was a Taoist robe!

And this giant sword is the Pure Yang Sword of Longfu Mountain, the treasure of Zhenshan Mountain, which Zhao Tongyi has been asking Yan Yu to hand over to him, it is an artifact that only the master of the sect is qualified to keep!

This also means that the corpse in front of him is very likely to be his father, the head of Longfu Mountain, Yan Zhenqing!

"Could it be that your mission is to carry this dragon head until you die, just to keep this pitiful water source for the people of Old River Fort?"

Yan Yu's heart was full of grief and indignation.

He didn't want his speculation to come true, because it wasn't worth it at all!

If this is the case, the water source that my father desperately kept, even after he died, still maintained a half-kneeling posture like a rock, carrying this dragon head to the death, just to keep this little water source, it would be too sad!

The water source he desperately kept, so that Qin Dayou could use it to control the villagers and maintain his prestige, because of this water source, Qin Dayou could indulge in the game of begging for rain, he could fool the villagers, and he could engage in feudal superstition, but he didn't let the villagers help find a new water source!

The village that my father desperately defended not only did not wake up, but became even more insensitive and insensitive, they thought it was God's favor, but they didn't know that in this dark world that no one knew, there was a person, even if he turned into bones, he was still guarding the stupid them!

If this is the case, Yan Yu will feel sorry for his father and feel unworthy, and he will not accept it from the bottom of his heart, this white bone will be his father.

Although his father has always had a noble feeling of compassion for the heavens and people, and has been running around to complete that ridiculous mission, Yan Yu does not know what his exact mission is.

It would be ridiculous to abandon his wife and children and run to the end of the world just for such a pathetic water source.

And Yan Yu's mother died in Laohebao for no apparent reason, Yan Yu thought that Qin Dayou and others couldn't get out of it, but his father was willing to sacrifice himself for such a village?

Although the corpse had not been crushed, it had been seriously deformed, and if it were not for the support of the giant sword, I was afraid that it would have been crushed into powder by the dragon's head, and Yan Yu would not be able to identify it carefully.

Forcibly walked forward, squatted down with a strict word, and searched carefully under the direct light of the flashlight, but unfortunately except for this giant sword, the corpse did not leave any identifying items.

This also made Yan Yu feel a little relieved, as long as it was not his "stupid" father, there was still a glimmer of hope.

Otherwise, Yan Yu really didn't dare to guarantee that he would give up his long-term goal, and he would no longer want to run for his father to investigate.

The platform was suspended in the air, I don't know if there will be support underneath, as if it was connected to the dragon, and the dragon was entrenched above, everything seemed to be suspended, and Yan Yu didn't dare to go to the edge, he couldn't understand the structure.

But the roaring sound of water overhead, coupled with the connection at the faucet, made Yan Yu make a preliminary judgment.

As long as the faucet is raised, the dark river above may be able to guide it all, and then it will not be the water storage of a lotus pond, but the rushing underground river!

But this place is too strange, such a huge underground project, what age it was built, who built it, what the purpose is, and what the consequences of rashly developing this place will bring, all of this is unknown.

Yan Yu had to think carefully, if this place could really be developed, maybe his father would have brought someone to develop it a long time ago, and he didn't have to work hard to support this faucet, just to keep that little bit of pitiful "leaky" water source.

Of course, whether this corpse is his father Yan Zhenqing or not, this is the question he is most concerned about!
