Chapter 283: Three Holes
I took the bead and stuffed it into my mouth, and at the same time, the big stone in my heart fell to the ground, fortunately, these two disciples of the Qingyun Sect appeared in time, and they broke up, so Yin Kun didn't have time to think about my abnormal behavior just now.
After everyone had water droplets in their mouths, they didn't dare to stay on the island for a while, and sank into the water one after another, and their bodies fell sharply.
This water bead is very mysterious, and when it is held in the mouth, the body will emit a faint blue light, forcing the surrounding waters back to two feet away.
If you look at it from the outside, you can see that several of us are wrapped in a round bubble, looking like we can't see a drop of water.
During the fall, I tried to open my mouth, and now I am breathing smoothly, almost the same as 6 places.
Because the blue light emitted by the beads is transparent, I can see the underwater world nearby.
The whole area of water is overgrown with aquatic weeds, and it is green, but not a single fish or shrimp swims past me, giving people a sense of dead emptiness.
"Could it be that the fish and shrimp in the water have been eaten up by the black fish essence." I was sinking as I thought to myself.
It wasn't until about half a pillar of incense that everyone's bodies stopped sinking, and they finally stepped on the bottom of the water.
The sunlight under the water barely shines in, and when you look up, it is pitch black all around, and you can't see the road clearly, let alone go to find the cave of the black fish spirit.
Ding Laosan was obviously prepared for this, and took out a palm-sized stone from the leather bag on his waist, emitting a white light, which was held high above his head, and the scenery within a radius of ten zhang was reflected very clearly.
I glanced at it and knew what the glowing stone in his hand was.
This is an extremely rare luminous stone, also called fluorite, and the ancients polished it into a round shape called the night pearl.
Because this stone contains phosphorescent substances, it absorbs the sun's energy during the day, and releases this energy in the darkness at night to illuminate everything.
Ding Laosan led the way with a stone in front, and our group followed behind.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Ding Laosan suddenly stopped next to a huge rock, and said in a tone that could not hide his joy: "Come and see, I have found its cave." ”
We hurriedly walked forward to check, only to see that at the bottom of the rock, there were three holes more than one person high, and they were pitch black and sloping into the ground.
Seeing this scene, Sun Caixia couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Strange, how can there be three holes?" Which one should we go into? ”
"It's not surprising that cunning rabbits have three holes, not to mention a black fish spirit."
Yin Kun pondered for a while after speaking, and then said to the two of them: "The reason why the black fish spirit opened the three holes must be to leave a way back for himself when he encounters danger, it is better to act separately, Kang'er and I will enter a hole, and you and your husband will each enter one, so that you can break its thoughts." ”
"The seniors are smart, just do what you say." Ding Laosan clapped his hands and agreed.
Sun Caixia showed hesitation on her face, and said: "The method is feasible, but the Taoism of my husband and wife is not as advanced as that of their predecessors, and it is greatly discounted after separation. ”
"It doesn't matter, if you encounter a black fish spirit, try to entangle it, and shout to warn, and then the old man will rush over as quickly as possible to help you kill it!" Yin Kun has a confident tone.
After hearing this, Sun Caixia showed a look of relief on her face, and said: "I am relieved to have the words of my predecessors, otherwise, I really don't have a little confidence in facing it alone." ”
So, our group went their separate ways and went into a hole.
I followed behind Yin Kun, surveying my surroundings as I walked.
This is a bottomless passage, as it gradually deepens and opens, it can already accommodate three people walking side by side, and the ground under your feet is soaked in water all year round, overgrown with a layer of aquatic plants, sticky and slippery, and you will fall if you are not careful.
Walking cautiously all the way, about a cup of tea, the front suddenly opened up, and there was a cave decorated with coral, shells and other things.
From a long distance, Yin Kun and the two of us slowed down and touched it quietly.
The cave was empty, and there was no one, and in the center was a stone table made of polished bluestone, and several chairs that were also carved from bluestone.
In the corner, there are several dead cattle and sheep corpses, some with holes in their heads and brains sucked out, and some with their chests cut open and their livers gouged out.
I looked around vigilantly, and at the same time asked Yin Kun, "It seems that the black fish spirit is not in the cave, what should we do next?" ”
"Wait a while, after Ding Laosan and his wife come to round, let's discuss how to proceed next." After Yin Kun finished speaking, he simply sat down on the bluestone chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.
I'm not as bold as him, this is the old nest of the black fish spirit, not my home, in case the other party suddenly comes out, I don't even have a chance to take precautions.
So I found a position where I thought I was safe, and stared intently around, for fear that the black fish spirit would suddenly appear.
After a long time, Ding Laosan was finally late, Yin Kun heard the movement, opened his eyes and asked, "How is it, what's in your hole?" ”
"The hole I walked in is empty, and there is no trace of the black fish spirit, where are you?" Ding Laosan also asked.
Yin Kun looked at him and shook his head slowly.
"Isn't it time for us to come just in time for it to be away from home?" Ding Laosan looked puzzled.
Yin Kun spread his hands and said, "Who knows, let's wait for Sister Sun to come, maybe she has something there." ”
"That's all it can be." After Ding Laosan finished speaking, he also sat down next to Yin Kun.
In this way, I waited for a while, but I didn't see Sun Caixia coming.
Ding Laosan couldn't sit still a little, got up anxiously and said, "Senior, your father and son are guarding here, I'll go find her, and I'll meet here when the time comes." ”
"No need, she's already here." Yin Kun stretched out his hand and pointed to the outside of the cave mansion, and said with a condensed expression.
Ding Laosan and I hurriedly turned our heads to look, only to see Sun Caixia carrying a big knife on her shoulder, walking slowly from a distance, her face was expressionless, her walking posture was also very strange, and her waist was twisted and twisted.
"Daughter-in-law, why did you come, I just wanted to find you." Ding Laosan greeted him as he spoke.
Yin Kun suddenly stood up and said sharply: "Ding Laosan, come back quickly, she may not be your daughter-in-law!" ”
