Xia Weiling knew that Ye Zhiqiu didn't say anything good, nodded, and began to search around.

The search still relies on Liu Yan's tide shooting crossbow, and other people's magic weapons, it is difficult to come in handy.

While looking for the location of the town altar, Liu Yan asked, "Two Dao Chiefs, has the depth of the water here been measured?" ”

"It has been measured, and this piece is extremely deep, more than 20 meters. With an average depth of just over two meters, the lake is a sinkhole. Xia Weiling said.

"I have also checked the relevant information, why has this big puddle not been recorded before? I wonder, did it come out of nowhere? Liu Yan said.

"So, this underwater space was originally hidden under the soil layer at the bottom of the lake?" Xia Weiling was also confused.

According to hydrological records, the bottom of Taihu Lake is flat, and the deepest part is no more than three meters. However, where the town altar and altar are located, the water depth has reached more than 20 meters, which is obviously contrary to the information.

"Maybe it's a mistake in the information, whatever, catch the monster and it's done." Ye Zhiqiu said.

Liu Yan and Xia Weiling also stopped discussing and continued to search.

But looking for something underwater is not like on land, where you can see far away at a glance, so progress is slow.

Before I could find the location of the town altar and the altar, a large area of black water suddenly flooded in front of me, quickly surrounding the water opening space, and everyone's eyes immediately became dark.

"It's an underwater ghost hitting the wall, and it seems that we are close to the target, so the monsters at the bottom of the lake deliberately release a miasma so that we can't find the target!" Lan Guoxiong said.

"Ascend, move your position from the surface of the lake, then dive down and slowly find your target!" Liu Yan said.

"Good idea, my junior sister is right, I think so too!" Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly answered.

Xia Weiling smiled and said, "Sure enough, he is an apprentice taught by the Iron Crown Dao Master, and he has a fight with the master." The old man with the iron crown is an ageless naughty boy in the Daomen, and the apprentice is also so interesting. ”

Liu Yan glared at Ye Zhiqiu, urging the tide shooting crossbow to control the floating of the water clearing space.

Ye Zhiqiu lacked balance, so he hurriedly grabbed Liu Yan's arm and asked Liu Yan to take him.

Lan Guoxiong and his wife have a deep cultivation, and the couple hold hands and hang in the water space, controlling the balance of their bodies.

The four of them floated to the surface, and the upper part of the water space was level with the lake.

Liu Yan looked at the direction, led everyone to move more than ten meters north, and then dived again.

But this time, after falling to the bottom of the lake, the lake was still dark around him, and his eyes could not penetrate.

After searching the bottom of the lake, but no altar was found, everyone floated up again, changed places and continued to dive and search.

Repeated three or five times, but to no avail, there was no trace of the town altar and the altar.

Ye Zhiqiu muttered: "It's obviously in this water, why can't you find it?" Could it be that what we saw last night was all an illusion? ”

"It's not an illusion, the altar is nearby!" Liu Yan bent down, picked up a bronze sword from the bottom of the lake, and said, "There is a bronze sword left here, which means that we are close to our destination." ”

"Okay, keep moving forward, everyone pay attention to vigilance to prevent being sneak attacked." Xia Weiling said.

The four of them were on one side, searching forward, and suddenly found something strange under their feet, and looked down to see that they had stepped on the bluestone slab.

"That's right, this is not an altar, it's a town altar!" Lan Guoxiong said.

"There are steps around the altar, but there are no here, it should be what you call the town altar!" Ye Zhiqiu said.

"Then keep going, the black water created by the monster will definitely not spread to the town altar!" Lan Guoxiong said.

The four of them continued to move forward, and sure enough, the water in front of them gradually became clearer, and the light was much better.

Liu Yan's eyes were sharp, and the tide crossbow pointed ahead: "I saw that huge stone sword!" ”

Ye Zhiqiu looked in the direction of Liu Yan, and sure enough, a vague shadow appeared in front of him.

Everyone hastened their pace, and before long, they came to the bottom of the stone sword.

It is also a square, with an area of more than 100 square meters, which is much smaller than the area of the altar.

The shape of the stone sword, the tip of the sword is partially pierced into the stone slab on the ground, and the remaining sword body and hilt are about two zhang high.

The width of the stone sword is more than six feet, and the thickness is more than two feet, and the overall proportion is not very harmonious. It is said that it is a stone sword, but it is a stone tablet in the shape of a sword.

There are words on both sides of the sword body, one side is a big character, and the other side is a boy, both of which are ancient seals.

"Miss Liu, I'm waiting for you to reveal the secret, I know a few of the words on it." Xia Weiling said.

Liu Yan nodded, first looked at the two lines of big characters, identified the handwriting, and read: "The Yue girl has a spirit, and she will become a murderer in a hundred battles." Yongzhen Yusi, Wannian Changji. ”

"Sure enough, it's a master, and you can recognize such a crooked ghost drawing!" Ye Zhiqiu grinned and asked, "What do you mean?" Explain explain. ”

Liu Yan frowned slightly and said, "This town altar seems to be related to Yue Nu...... I'll look at the text at the back again. ”

"Yue Nu? Could it be the female swordsman during the Wu Yue hegemony? It is said that with a sword, she defeated the Wu army's 3,000 iron armor. Xia Weiling said.

"Literally, it's supposed to be her. Don't worry, wait for Miss Liu to look at those small words again. Lan Guoxiong said.

Yue Nu is a very legendary woman in the history of the Chinese Kingdom, with amazing swordsmanship, and is the head of the martial arts of the three armies of King Goujian. With one person and one sword, he killed 3,000 Wu soldiers who lost their armor and abandoned their armor, and their corpses were all over the field, making him the first master of swordsmanship in the world. What Ximen blowing snow in later generations, what Ye Gucheng, what sword god sword saint, if you compete with Yue Nu, it will be a head!

In the novel of the old man Jin Yong, Guo Jing's seventh master and Han Xiaoying, the little sister in the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, practiced the Yue Nu Sword, and her nickname was also called the Yue Nu Sword. However, Han Xiaoying probably didn't learn the essence of the Yue Nu Sword, so her martial arts were not very good, and even Mei Chaofeng and Ouyang Ke's people couldn't beat them.

Liu Yan had already turned to the other side of the sword and read the inscription carefully.

After a while, Liu Yan turned around and said, "The inscription has been read, it says...... In the twenty-fourth year of Goujian, the king of Yue, that is, the year when Goujian destroyed Wu, because of the flood of water demons in Taihu Lake, the undead who died in Taihu Lake in the Wu-Yue hegemony refused to rest in peace, wailing and crying day and night, disturbing the living. Therefore, the king of Yue will be Xi Shi...... and threw it down as a sacrifice. But I didn't expect that after Xi Shi's death, the resentful spirit became even stronger. King Yue had no choice, so he put the sword of the chivalrous Yue Nu here for suppression. ”

To interpret the inscription, you must not only know the text, but also be familiar with the history, fortunately, Liu Yan is an expert.

"Poor, it turned out that Xi Shi was used as a sacrifice and drowned in Taihu Lake." Ye Zhiqiu sighed.

Lan Guoxiong and his wife each frowned and said, "That altar, what's going on?" ”

Liu Yan shook his head and said: "The inscription on the town altar does not mention the altar, but according to the inscription, it is guessed that the altar is not dedicated to Xi Shi. On the contrary, Shih Tzu is a sacrifice to pay tribute to the soldiers who died in the Taihu Lake. (2nd Update)
