252. Unbearable heat

Sheng Shiyao looked around the surroundings again, and then said to me, "You help me up." ”

I immediately leaned over the back of his neck and helped his man to his feet, but he still got up and approached the wall, his eyes sharpening to search for something. I probably understood that he was looking for the location of the agency, and I didn't bother him, just waiting for the result.

After looking at the four walls, looking at his calm expression, he should have made a discovery. But he didn't rush to touch the mechanism, but sat down again and closed his eyes and calmed, not knowing what he was thinking. I waited for a while but didn't see him make any moves, the heat jumped for a moment, then stopped for a while, and then started again, and my lips quickly became hot and foamy, and there was no water around me, which made me feel very uncomfortable. I couldn't help but ask, "Is there a mechanism on the wall?" But he didn't answer me, and went on as if he had settled down.

It took half an hour of perseverance before he opened his eyes, then got up from the ground on his own, took my hand and walked to the wall. I asked curiously, "How are you?" He said: "Just a week of luck, I temporarily suppressed the injury and recovered some ability. If the agency is touched, we don't know what awaits us, and we must not act rashly. ”

I nodded in understanding, but he was thoughtful, it turned out that he was just waiting for the injury to heal. His palm was a lot cooler than mine, so it felt very comfortable, as if the heat could pass through a little.

Standing still by the wall, Sheng Shiyao raised his hand and pressed it somewhere, then walked over his five fingers and pressed it a second time, and then pressed it diagonally down for the third time. After waiting for two seconds, the sound of organic scraping start-up was heard. Nervously grasping the hilt of the Shadow Moon Knife, his eyes widened and stared at the wall, for half a minute, the sound of scraping stopped, and the middle of the stone wall in front of him slowly rose upward, revealing the shape of a door.

We waited for a moment when the stone door was all at the top, and there was no other mechanism to touch it, and behind the stone door was an upward staircase. Sheng Shiyao and I glanced at each other, and it seemed that there was only this road in front of us, and we could only take a step forward.

When I walked out of the stone chamber and looked up, I didn't see any more lights, so it was very dark and I couldn't see my head. Sheng Shiyao went back to the stone room to get a lamp to illuminate, and after we walked up dozens of steps, we saw that at the end, there was another double-open stone door. When I got closer, I saw that there were two pull rings on the stone door, Sheng Shiyao asked me to help hold the lamp, he pulled one side of each hand, and the stone door was easily opened, and I didn't think he was too strong.

And the world behind the stone gate amazed me, as if it had been in the outside world. After going out and looking around, it has been confirmed that it is really out, even if you can't see the top when you look up, a piece of black pressure, but you can also judge that this is outside. Does that mean we've left that terrible rift? Or is this one also in the rift now?

After looking at a few places, Sheng Shiyao said affirmatively: "We have come out, and we are no longer in the rift." ”

"Really? What about Zhou Tong them? Isn't it that the rift space is twisted once every twelve hours, how can it be so easy to get out there? "I'm a little bit unconvinced, it's not that simple. But Sheng Shiyao said: "They should be nearby, it's not easy to get out, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would be trapped in different rifts for a few days and nights and wouldn't be able to get out." ”

"Me?" I pointed at the tip of my nose inexplicably, how can I say that it was because of me that I came out of the fissure?

Sheng Shiyao nodded: "Have you forgotten what I told you just now, the Soul is the key to the entire rift, it can be said that it is the guardian and manipulator of the rift, so when it is destroyed by you, then the power of the entire rift to twist will not exist, and it will naturally break away from that space and return to where it should be." ”

I still don't understand, "What does it mean to go back to where you used to be?" Does the rift itself exist? ”

"Have you ever thought about why Yu is the king of Dian, why is he unfamiliar with his palace environment?"

Yes! After he reminded me, I thought of this, yes, Zhuang Yu also has memories of his past life two thousand years ago. We entered the rift space through the secret passage under the palace, he and Jian Ning were dragged into it by strange hands from the passage under the royal tomb, it stands to reason that this place belongs to the palace range, he should know that the rift space is, but why does he act at a loss?

Especially if all of this was known to him and even existed in the Dian City Palace two thousand years ago, then why would he be hurt by that evil soul like this? The human heart can be false, but the injuries on his body are not false, and in the end, it is not false that he and Sheng Shiyao teamed up desperately to destroy the evil spirit, and he was seriously injured again and fell unconscious. This is contradictory, could it be that this rift space, even if he was the king of Dian in his previous life, he didn't know, or although he had the memory of the king of Dian in this life, he lacked this part of the memory?

Sheng Shiyao denied my inference, he said that behind the end of the original palace secret passage should be the stone chamber we just walked out of, but because of the reversal of time and space two thousand years ago, the city of Dian sank to the bottom of Fuxian Lake, and folded together with the space that originally existed here, so there was more of this almost dangerous rift space.

In this way, the real crisis is actually the alien space at the bottom of Fuxian Lake, not Dian City. But Sheng Shiyao denied me, saying that the two are actually complementary, and the most basic element for one space to fold with another is to merge with each other. The sinister aura of the Heavenly Altar outside the palace and the rise and fall of the ghosts inside the palace are all factors that constitute the existence of the rift and even the appearance of the evil soul. What I can't figure out is that ghosts like the Ghost Ghost were supposed to exist in the underworld, why did they come to the human world to cause trouble and manipulate the operation of the rift.

After listening to his analysis, I put forward a hypothesis: Could it be that the space at the bottom of Fuxian Lake is close to the so-called underworld, so that little ghosts are rampant and affect the underwater ecological environment? Sheng Shiyao was noncommittal when he heard this, and after a while, he just went around to see where it was, and since the rift had been cracked, he also had to look for Zhou Tong and the others.

But we didn't find anyone else, but we found a pool, and the reason why we were so careful about it was because it was at the foot of a mountain, and the surrounding area was very luxuriously repaired, with a pebble road, and a circle of white stone platforms built around the pool.

We haven't forgotten the purpose of our trip, so when we saw such a pool, we naturally wondered if it would be a fairy pool. Sheng Shiyao also said that the Lingxian Pond was built in the forbidden land behind the palace, and since it was a forbidden place, he must have never arrived at that time with his unrecognized identity, so he couldn't be sure or not.

He said that the Lingxian Pond was listed as a forbidden place and could only be entered by successive Dian kings, but the secrets contained were revealed to members of the royal family. It is that there is a thousand-year-old Xuan Ice at the bottom of the pool, and there is also a fine stone cave, which is inaccessible to those who are not capable of transcendental, and the essence stone will emit mixed element essence, and purple gas will float above the immortal pool, and this purple gas will then rise into the air and become a cage above the palace. Purple gas comes from the east, and has always been recognized as auspicious, so this pool is regarded as the dragon vein of the Dian Kingdom, which dominates the national fortune.

Therefore, there were still heavy guards around this forbidden land.

At this time, I didn't find any purple qi floating out of this pool, and I couldn't prove whether it was a spirit fairy pool. But the burning heat in my body suddenly escalated, and it felt like a fireball baking between my stomach, and I urgently needed water to cool down, so I took the lead and stepped into the pool. I found that the tentacles were extremely icy, and the cool entered the body, and immediately collided with my scorching heat to neutralize, and I felt a lot of heat dispersed. I was rejoicing, but I found that the water around my hand was beginning to boil, and I couldn't help but be startled, and quickly retracted my hand, boiling without burning the skin.

But when I retracted my hand, the boiling water gradually calmed down, and this ...... Could it be that my body temperature is so hot? If I can turn water directly into boiling water, how can I still withstand this heat?

"Xiaoxiao, you go into the water and try it." Sheng Shiyao's voice came from overhead. I looked back at him, into the water? I didn't have any clothes to change, but it was too hot to get wet, and after my hand was retracted, the heat became more and more intense. Don't care about anything else, grab the edge of the pool and dip your body into the pool. I was relieved to hear the hissing sound and feel like I was a coal, and the heat was relieved, but in a moment, the water around me was boiling, and the heat was coming again.

I wanted to cry without tears and raised my head and asked Sheng Shiyao who was by the pool, "What should I do?" Am I going to get burned like this? ”

He asked me to move to the low temperature of the water next to me, but it didn't work, wherever I moved, it boiled, and it was all around the edge of the pool, and the water had begun to steam, and this pool was about to be turned into a hot spring by me.

Sheng Shiyao reached into the pool, and quickly retracted it, suspecting that the back of his hand had blistered, and the water was too hot. I felt like I was superhuman, I could soak in a pool of boiling water, and my skin was red, like a boiled shrimp, but the skin was not scalded. The principle is clear, it is that the heat in my body completely exceeds the temperature of boiling water.

This is not the solution, after the water in the pool becomes hot, there is no way to neutralize the temperature of my body, and the burning heat is stirring in my body, and I feel a little pain in my chest. I was about to open my mouth and ask Sheng Shiyao to help me think of another way, when I suddenly felt a force under my feet and dragged me down, but I didn't have any defense, and I was suddenly pulled off and grabbed the hand by the pool, and then sank in. When he reacted, he kicked hard, but he did not reduce the momentum of the fall, as if there was a suction force at the bottom.

I only heard a muffled bang from above, and when I looked up, I saw a figure in the water. You don't have to guess to know that it is Sheng Shiyao, and his heart suddenly tightened, the water was so hot, he jumped down without hesitation......

I didn't want to think about it too much, the falling momentum suddenly became fierce, directly widening the distance between me and Sheng Shiyao, and soon I couldn't see clearly in the water layer. And I didn't wear diving goggles, my eyes were wide open, and it was very dry and painful. To my surprise, the pool was so deep that it had come down dozens of meters, and it hadn't reached the end yet.
