Chapter Twenty-Nine: Open the Door

The thick sea of clouds covers an area of seven or eight square kilometers, surrounded by mountains, like a natural barrier, guarding the mysterious sea of clouds.

The sea of clouds is surrounded by cliffs, which is difficult to set foot in, and judging from the sound of falling stones just now, it is impossible to climb down with the help of ropes, so Lu Shui is worried.

The sun on the horizon rose quietly, bringing pieces of light, and the wind blew Lu Shuiyi's hair, which danced with the wind, like a fairy in the nine heavens, and the white sea of clouds rolled under her feet, like soaring clouds.

The sun shines on the sea of clouds, and the clouds are full of spirituality and entangles beams of light, slowly engulfing them, and I don't know if it is a sunny day under the sea of clouds?

Lu Shui stomped his foot and said, "How can we go down in such a deep valley?" She started a childish tantrum again.

At this time, the sky was already bright, only the clouds in the valley did not disperse, Zhao Ruozhi squatted down, and gently fanned the floating clouds with his hands, the clouds moved with his hands, the tentacles were cold, he withdrew his hand, and there was no trace of water vapor on his hands except for the cold feeling.

Zhao Ruozhi, who was slightly surprised, said: "Hey, it's strange, it stands to reason that clouds or fog will feel slightly wet when they meet warm hands, why don't the clouds here even have a little moisture?" ”

Seeing that the sun was rising higher and higher, Lu Shuiyi said: "When is it, you still think about this, hurry up and think about how to go down, when they catch up, we will be miserable." ”

Zhao Ruozhi stood up and said, "That's you miserable." Lu Shui's cold eyes flew over, and Zhao Ruozhi hurriedly explained: "There is a problem with the clouds here, if we go down rashly, it is very unsafe, since this is the site of the Snake Country, then, it is impossible for the people of the Snake Country many years ago to climb up and down the cliff, there must be a secret passage that is not known to us." ”

Lu Shui's eyes widened, he took Zhao Ruozhi's arm and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so smart, why didn't I expect it?" She was so frightened that Zhao Ruozhi almost fell into the sea of clouds.

Zhao Ruozhi said: "It's not that I'm smart, this is common sense, I don't understand common sense, I really don't know how you came here." ”

Lu Shui stuck out his tongue and said, "Why did I come here, you didn't ask me, why did I tell you." Zhao Ruozhi was dumbfounded, he had never seen such a freewheeling woman, who could be innocent and cute, and even more fierce.

Zhao Ruozhi said: "Let's go somewhere else and see if we can find anything." Lu Shuiyi agreed.

The clouds are like obedient and obedient children, not a trace of them drifting over the cliff to the mountain, the valley is like a crater, completely surrounding this sea of clouds, even Zhao Ruozhi began to wonder, could this be a crater, but how could there be such a big crater? Could it be that the ruins of the snake country are in the crater?

Walking and walking, Zhao Ruozhi tripped over something, because he was very close to the edge of the sea of clouds, if it wasn't for Lu Shui to pull him in time, I'm afraid he would have fallen.

The abyss must be shattered if you fall, will there be a big tree in the middle of the cliff like in a martial arts novel? Zhao Ruozhi thought wildly.

"Hey, what is this?" Lu Shuiyi wondered. Zhao Ruozhi was still thinking about martial arts novels at this time, and only then did he come back to his senses and found that he had tripped over a big iron chain.

The thick iron chain had already turned black, and it had already been integrated with the mountain and stone after experiencing how much wind and rain had eroded, and Zhao Ruozhi inadvertently kicked it, so he fell hard.

The iron chain was firmly fixed on the boulder not far away, and the other end actually stretched into the clouds, and it did not go down vertically against the cliff, but was diagonally inserted into the clouds at a certain angle with the cliff.

The chains are 20 centimeters wide, and large iron rings are interlocked with each other, and there is a large gap between the iron rings.

Zhao Ruozhi said happily: "Look at this big iron chain, I don't know how many years it has been hanging here, but it has not been broken, I think the other end of it must be at the bottom." He shook the big iron chain with his hand, and the heavy iron chain only moved slightly, and the cloud was wrapped around the iron chain, as if the iron chain were its arm.

Lu Shuiyi said: "Look, there is also one over there." ”

Two large iron chains stretched out into the sea of clouds, presumably these two iron chains were the way in and out of the deep valley.

Sure enough, Zhao Ruozhi soon saw a trace on the iron ring, and there was a piece of wood stuffed in the iron ring.

Zhao Ruozhi pressed the wood and said, "It seems that the people of the Snake Country stuck the wooden planks in the iron rings and built a bridge to facilitate access. ”

Lu Shuiyi said: "What's so good about this valley, it takes so much effort to build a bridge, just live outside, it's really hard, I think this snake king must be a madman." ”

Zhao Ruozhi looked at Yun Qi and said: "I don't know if he is crazy or not, there must be something below that is worth him doing, otherwise he will not be able to be a powerful snake king." He thought to himself, "Is there really a black box down here?" Otherwise, what could make a kingdom move into this deep valley? ”

"Hmph, let's think about how to go down, it's not easy to go down by this chain." Lu Shuiyi said.

In the bottomless valley, climbing the chain with bare hands is something that you can't do if you die, but where else can you go down but here? Zhao Ruozhi pondered.

Zhao Ruozhi walked in front of the big stone, the big iron chain was tightly fixed on the big stone, he stared at the big stone, and his eyes were bright, and there was a warm feeling, he couldn't think of why.

At this time, Lu Shuiyi said: "The place where this iron chain is fixed can still bathe in the sun. Zhao Ruozhi realized that the original warm feeling was caused by the sun, he walked behind the boulder, and there were three horizontal bars carved on the back of the boulder, and the top bar was broken from the middle and divided into two sections.

Zhao Ruozhi was surprised, could it be that this depicts the gossip of the five elements? This is obviously the gossip of the hexagram, the hexagram is due west, no wonder the sun is shining directly.

If this is the gossip of the five elements, is there any other chain? Lu Shui said loudly: "Hey, silly boy, what are you doing?" ”

Zhao Ruozhi was out of his mind just now, he walked back and looked around the sea of clouds, surrounded by mountains and trees, he couldn't see anything at all, he thought of the sea of clouds as a gossip map, and then arranged the directions according to the five elements of gossip.

Lu Shuiyi next to him didn't bother him, she was very curious about what this stupid boy was thinking, suddenly, Zhao Ruozhi gasped, and Lu Shuiyi asked, "Silly boy, what did you find?" ”

Zhao Ruozhi said in surprise: "If I guess correctly, this snake king is a gossip master." Lu Shui laughed and said, "Could it be that the Snake King is a woman?" Zhao Ruozhi asked strangely, "How do you know that he is a woman?" ”

Lu Shuiyi said: "Didn't you say that the Snake King is a gossip master, do men also love gossip?" Zhao Ruozhi heard that the gossip Lu Shuiyi said was a lot of talk between women.

Zhao Ruozhi also smiled slightly: "The gossip I am talking about is the gossip of the five elements, this snake king takes the sea of clouds as the gossip map, and sets up eight roads in and out of the valley, our position is to redeem the hexagram, and the hexagram belongs to the west, here is the shocking door, and now it belongs to the golden autumn, it is the time when the shocking door is vigorous, if we go down from here, we will definitely die." ”

Lu Shuiyi, who listened to the book of heaven, didn't know what Zhao Ruozhi was talking about, she asked anxiously, "Then have you found the way down?" ”

Zhao Ruozhi said: "If my guess is right, we walk around the cliff to the northwest, and we should soon be able to see two more iron chains, which are the trap door, there are eight doors in the five elements of gossip, which are the door to open the door, the door of rest, the door of life, the door of injury, the door of Dumen, the door of Jing, the door of death and the door of shock, the door of opening, the door of rest, and the door of life are Jimen, and the position we are in is the door of surprise, you come and see." As he spoke, he walked behind the boulder again, Lu Shuiyi followed, he pointed to the three horizontal bars behind the boulder and said: "This is obviously a hexagram, if my expectation is correct, it must be a hexagram not far from the northwest, that is, three horizontal bars." ”

Lu Shui looked at the three horizontal bars carved on the boulder, and the top one was broken from the middle, which was the hexagram, although she didn't know much about the five elements of the gossip, but she still knew the hexagram.

Lu Shuiyi looked at Zhao Ruozhi and said, "Oh, I didn't expect you to have this kind of insight, fortunately, I have a good eye and take a fancy to you." Zhao Ruozhi was obviously forcibly used by her as a companion on the road, but at this time she boasted that she had a good eye, I really don't know what women are thinking in their hearts.

Zhao Ruozhi sighed and said: "Yes, yes, what you said is right, if you have a bad eye, then you can still be a big beauty." "He actually started messing around.

The two of them walked northwest along the cliff for about two kilometers, and sure enough, they found two big iron chains, the shape was exactly the same as before, and the place where the big iron chain was fixed was also a big stone, Zhao Ruozhi went around to the back of the big stone and saw three horizontal bars engraved on the back of the big stone, and the three horizontal bars represented the Qiangua in the gossip, which confirmed Zhao Ruozhi's conjecture, and the position they were in now was to open the door.

Lu Shuiyi said: "Silly boy, even if this is Jimen, how can we go down?" Hey? You see. She said, pointing not far away.

On the wall not far away, there was a cave, Zhao Ruozhi also saw that cave, the first thing he thought of was the snake cave, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Lu Shuiyi giggled, "A hole scares you like this." How would she know that since Zhao Ruozhi and the Twelve Street Caves were connected, there had been many holes, and there were always some unexpected things in the holes.

A deep cave, I don't know how many years I've been there.

The cave is one person high and one person wide, hidden behind the rocks, it is not easy to be found, Zhao Ruozhi thought to himself: "Since this place is in line with the Five Elements Bagua, then this cave must be safe." ”

Zhao Ruozhi was sure in his thoughts, and he raised his confidence again.

Suddenly, Zhao Ruozhi was stunned, Lu Shui immediately raised her vigilance and pulled out her saber, she thought that Zhao Ruozhi had seen something unclean, only to hear Zhao Ruozhi say: "We can't just leave, since there are so many killing formations here, if Lao Sha doesn't know, wouldn't it... I have to wait for him here. ”
