Chapter 11: The Monkey Appears
After putting away the wooden sign, Qin Tian continued to walk forward, this stone square was almost explored by him, and he had to go to find the crazy old man next.
After walking for less than ten minutes, Qin Tian stopped in front of a huge stone wall, and there was no way to go in front of him.
Qin Tian carefully observed the stone wall with the help of the faint light that existed in the cave.
There was no writing left on the stone wall, just a few simple lines staggered, vaguely like a piglet, but strangely enough, there seemed to be a bead drawn on its belly.
Qin Tian felt familiar, as if he had seen this strange creature somewhere.
"There is a beast, its shape is like a dolphin and there are pearls, is this the legendary beast - the fox?"
Qin Tian remembered that the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" he had read described that there was a divine beast in Mount Tai, wasn't that appearance just like what he was looking at?
"Why do you want to carve the appearance of the legendary mythical beast on this stone wall? Could it be that this place really has something to do with myths and legends? Qin Tian couldn't figure out these things he had encountered since he came to the stone square.
Anyway, the road was cut off here, and he was a little confused about how to go after that.
He had to look around the stone wall first, maybe just like in the novel, he might find the door opening mechanism of the stone wall.
After only looking for a long time, Qin Tian didn't find anything similar to the mechanism on the stone wall, but the stone carvings on the stone wall felt warm to the touch, not like dead things.
Qin Tian had no choice for a while, so he sat in front of the stone wall and took out the wooden plaque that he had just arrived.
Since you can't get out, it's better to study what this wooden card does.
The wooden card was held in his hand, and the jade talisman in Qin Tian's arms suddenly shook slightly.
Qin Tian hurriedly took out the jade talisman from his arms, since even it had a reaction, it proved that this wooden card was really not a mortal thing.
Qin Tian took out the jade talisman, and in the dim cave, the jade talisman did not bloom with the light of emerald as before, but showed a faint red light.
He put the jade talisman and the wooden plaque together, and the wooden plaque also reacted slightly.
The seven-star bead pattern on the wooden plaque seems to come to life, traveling around a specific trajectory on the wooden plaque, and the sawdust attached to it is also scattered one after another, revealing its true face.
"It's made of jasper, it's really a big deal." Qin Tian looked at the jasper part of the wooden plaque that was exposed due to the peeling of the wood chips and said in shock.
Since ancient times, Mount Tai has more jade, especially Mount Tai jasper is precious, and the jasper in this wooden card has a warm texture, green color, and it is more precious.
And the jade talisman only shook slightly, and there was no other reaction, Qin Tian couldn't help but laugh and cry, it seemed that this jade talisman was still a little cold.
As time passed, all the sawdust on the wooden sign peeled off, and the wooden sign turned into a piece of jasper.
However, what made Qin Tian feel a little pity was that the new jade plate still didn't seem to have any effect, and now even the jade talisman no longer had any reaction, and he stayed there quietly.
"Forget it, leave it alone." Qin Tian was disappointed and was about to put away the jade plaque, when the jade plaque suddenly reacted.
The jade plaque slowly crossed in front of the stone wall, and the seven-star bead pattern on it was reflected on the stone wall from the jade plaque, and the bright light suddenly illuminated the entire stone square.
The stone wall shook violently, and the carved shape of the fox on it suddenly came to life, and a huge purple figure appeared in front of Qin Tian out of thin air.
The huge figure let out a terrifying cry similar to a monkey, Qin Tian quickly covered his ears, the sound was too shocking.
Qin Tian looked up at the towering purple figure, and could clearly see a fire-like light somewhere on his chest, and couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise, could this be the ancient divine beast Fox?
As soon as the fox appeared, it noticed Qin Tian on the ground, its blood-red eyes and its mouth opened to swallow Qin Tian.
Qin Tian was just a mortal, and it was not bad just to see a strange creature like a fox to be calm, let alone fight against it.
Looking at the coming bloody mouth, he knew that even if he retreated, it would be useless, so he had to hold the jade plate in front of him, since it was the trouble it caused, then it should have some way.
The seven-star bead on the jade plate returned to its original place, and the jade plate only emitted a faint glimmer at this time, and there seemed to be no trace of resistance.
But just as the mouth of the fox was about to arrive, it suddenly stopped, and a pair of copper bell eyes stared at the jade plate in front of Qin Tian, and a trace of extremely humane doubts and uneasiness flowed in its eyes.
Qin Tian thought he was dead, but when he opened his eyes, he found that the big mouth of the fox did not fall, but looked at the jade card in his hand in disbelief, thinking that he had made the right bet again, it was really good luck.
He looked at the jade plate in Qin Tian's hand, hesitated for a moment, and then glanced at the jade talisman in front of him, but the extremely faint red light directly scared him away.
This time, he didn't hesitate any longer, turned around and hurriedly burrowed back to the stone wall.
After Qin Tian saw that he had returned to the stone wall, he really put his mind at ease, and this experience really completely confused Qin Tian's worldview.
Originally, he was just an ordinary materialist college student, but after coming to Mount Tai, he was a Yin soldier and a phantom of Zen Meditation, and everything in this strange cave made him have to believe that there are really many strange things in this world.
After the relentless beast returned to the stone wall, the beads on its chest melted like ice and snow, and the red light instantly covered the entire stone wall, and then a door-like hole appeared in front of Qin Tian.
"Looks like that's the way forward." Qin Tian looked at the door that appeared in front of him and said with relief.
Qin Tian looked back at the remnants of those weapons, and he now somewhat understood why these things existed here.
It seems that those defeated Qi troops somehow came to this place, and by chance they picked up the wooden card, and unfortunately summoned the fox, and there was no way to crack it before they were all swallowed by the fox, leaving only these wreckage.
Qin Tian shook his head with some sympathy, then put away the jade talisman and jade plate, and walked towards the door, he didn't want to die in this kind of place like these Qi troops.
Meanwhile, in another part of the cave, the mad old man looked at the stone platform in front of him with a delighted expression.
There is only an ancient book on the stone platform, and there are four big gilded words on the quaint page, "Bagua Buyi".
There is still a skeleton lying next to the book, and I think the man left this book before he died, waiting for someone who is destined to do so.
"It seems that the old man is the one I am destined, so I accepted this book unceremoniously." The crazy old man smiled and reached for it.
As soon as the mad old man's hand touched, a wisp of purple smoke suddenly rose from the book, rushing straight to the mad old man's forehead.
Fortunately, the crazy old man ate the black pill before, and the purple smoke touched his forehead and disappeared in an instant.
