The palace in front of me is completely made of bronze, the scale is majestic, simple and bright, but it is a bit of the style of the pre-Qin period.

The two sides of the palace are thousands of pounds of bronze doors have already been pushed open a gap of about forty centimeters, and a huge bronze column appeared on the right side of the front, and the bronze column is engraved with three blood-red characters of "Zhenshen Palace" with a small seal in the pre-Qin period.

Chubby and I looked at each other and walked through the crack in the bronze door, which was the size of a football field, with a huge pool in the center, like a huge swimming pool.

On each of the four corners of the waterhole sits a blood-red bronze statue. This bronze statue has a hideous appearance, with the body of a fish and the wings of a bird, and the scale is not small, about the size of a small water tank.

The mouths of the four fish-body bird-winged monster statues continued to spew water into the central pool, and the sound of water that Chubby had just heard came from here.

When I saw this statue of a fish-bodyed bird-winged monster, my heart was very calm.

When I was a child, I often listened to my old man tell stories, and one of my favorite ones was ancient myths and legends. Especially the strange beasts in the ancient book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

My old man once mentioned that in the ancient myths and legends of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", there is a creature called the fish, which is the image of the body of the fish and the wings of the bird.

According to the records in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", the fish is an ominous creature, and wherever it appears, floods will erupt.

However, the name of the palace here is called the Shrine of the Gods, which shows that the ancient ancestors who built the Palace of the Gods of Heaven worshipped the fish as a totem god.

It is not common to worship animals as totemic gods in the history of the development of China, for example, in ancient times, our Yanhuang tribe worshipped the dragon totem. In ancient times, the image of gluttony, phoenix, and cunning is often seen on the bronze ware, which is also a form of totem worship by the ancient ancestors.

It's just that I've never heard my old man say that the fish, a fierce beast that symbolizes ominousness, will also be worshipped as a totem, so who were the ancient ancestors who built this palace in the first place?

Anyway, Chubby and I entered the temple and walked around the pool, and I asked Chubby to take out the lamp and shine it on the water.

I saw that the entire water surface was black and turbid, and it was vaguely as if I could see a few black shadows flickering underwater.

"The shadow under the water is so big! The smallest one is one or two meters long, so how can there be such a big fish in such a small pool? Commander Liu, have you noticed this phenomenon? Chubby saw the somewhat vague black shadows under the water, turned to me and asked.

I shook my head and didn't answer, I'm not a god, how can I know what those dark shadows are under the water.

But I had an ominous premonition about the appearance of the dark shadow beneath the water.

I frowned and stared at the unblinking light on the surface of the water, and there were subtle ripples on the surface of the water, and after looking at it for a long time, it seemed that some black shadow was swimming slowly under the water.

The speed of the underwater black shadow swimming is very slow, and sluggish, as if the black shadow is motionless and slowly moving forward by some invisible force, and the speed of this movement is very slow, if you don't look closely, you can't even notice it, these black shadows are moving.

I don't think this black shadow is a big fish mentioned in Chubby's mouth, because fish don't move like this, and the fish swim in the water by the swing of the fins, and the tail is responsible for adjusting the direction.

The black shadow under the surface of the water was motionless, as if it were a dead corpse, moving slowly forward with the current.

I was looking at the water when I felt someone touch me with an arm, and I turned my head to see Chubby holding a lamp and staring straight at what appeared to be an island in the middle of the waterhole.

In the middle of the waterhole, there is a faint place where a person is standing.

The light of the lamp shone on the person's body, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that it was a humanoid statue.

This kind of humanoid statue, although it has a human body, but behind it is obvious that there are nine tails partially exposed to the water, and a little look will show that this is the image of the Queen Mother of the West.

The statue's eyes were wide open, and it seemed to be looking at us, and half of its body was submerged in the water, so it was impossible to see it really.

After seeing the statue in the center of the waterhole clearly, Xiaopang also breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death of your fat man, it turned out to be a broken bronze statue, hey!" Hey! Commander Liu, not to mention, this kind of bronze statue in ancient times is very valuable. If this thing is taken out, 1.8 million is no problem at all. ”

Chubby still had time to tease the bronze statue, but I ignored him, holding the lamp in my hand, staring at the bronze statue and thinking.

This bronze statue is carved very expressively, as if it has been given a soul and will be resurrected anytime and anywhere.

And I noticed that there was a large black shadow on the surface of the water beneath the bronze statue, and in this pool, the black shadow was most near the bronze statue.

I came back to my senses and was trying to remind Chubby to stay away from the puddle, but I didn't expect to hear Chubby shouting on the side: "Oh, Commander Liu, hurry up and take a look, there seems to be a big fish under the water!" ”

I was stunned for a moment, could it be that I was thinking too much, are those black shadows under this water really fish?

Impossible! In this dark underground, it is impossible for fish to survive, and there is no sunlight in this place, there will be no algae plants in the water, and there will be no animals without plants, which is a very simple truth in the biological chain of nature.

However, in this nest of the Pleiades, it can't be measured by common sense, you must know that we have seen a bright snake and dark flower called the blood baby before. That kind of creature is somewhere between animals and plants.

With doubts, I came to the waterhole, and looked at the place according to the little fat flashlight, and it really looked like a huge black fish floating in a place not deep underwater, and this black shadow was swimming slowly under the water.

Xiaopang's curiosity was aroused, thinking it was a fish, so he didn't care about it anymore, and as soon as he put the lamp on the ground, the whole person plunged into the water one by one.

However, this time I dived to the bottom of the water and did not move for a long time.

I secretly said in my heart: "It's bad now, could it be that he was swallowed by the black fish underwater?" ”

Thinking about it, I picked up the lamp and shone it on the water where Chubby jumped down.

I saw a fat black shadow swimming under the water, and this black shadow was needless to say that it was Chubby.
