Wu Zhiyuan first thought of what mechanism must have been set up in this rockery, presumably he had already triggered the mechanism when he stepped on the rockery just now, and within a moment or three, or the water in this pool would gush out like a fountain, instantly annihilating this tomb, or the stones on the top of this tomb would fall down like hailstones, smashing themselves into flesh.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan didn't dare to hesitate, hurriedly climbed the edge of the pool, and climbed ashore with a roll, after going ashore, his heart suddenly became much more steady, but he suddenly found that there was nothing abnormal on the ground on the shore, and then looked back at the rockery in the pool, and couldn't help but be shocked.

At this time, the rockery is rising from the water surface at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the black pool water around the rockery is surging to both sides, making a heavy "whoosh" sound, and there is no sound of the impact of the underworld weapon from the bottom of the water.

Looking at the strange scene in front of him, Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly took a few steps back, until his back was close to the stone wall, and he didn't look far away.

Soon, Wu Zhiyuan found out that this was just his wishful thinking, the rockery rose higher and higher from the water, and there was actually a row of raised mountains on both sides of the original three raised mountains, but the mountains were low, so they were hidden under the water surface and were not revealed.

As the rockery continued to rise, the part that exposed the water surface became huge, Wu Zhiyuan took a fixed look, and found that the side behind the rockery was actually connected to a thick and curly thing, like the tail of some animal, but this tail was surprisingly large, and the thickest end was a few points thicker than an adult's thigh.

It's really puzzling that there is such a thing on the rockery. When Wu Zhiyuan saw this, he suddenly thought of a kind of strange beast: a strange beast!

It is the head of the nine sons of the dragon in the legend, it is shaped like a turtle, it is good to bear the weight, in the ancient building or tomb, often chisel a stone pillar under the more important stone pillar to carry the stone pillar, so that you can keep the stone pillar forever, which is quite particular about the method of the town pillar in feng shui.

Legend has it that during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a farmer at the foot of Mount Tai, and one morning after waking up, he found that the pine tree that he could see when he went out actually ran a mile away, not only the pine tree, but all the trees in front of his house were moved to a mile away. Later, a Taoist priest of Youfang passed through this place and told the nearby farmers that there was a mythical beast under Mount Tai, whose name was Gan Tuan, and last night this Gan Tuan carried Mount Tai and only moved its claws slightly, and Taishan was moved out of a mile away. The mountains are moving, and there will be earthquakes here soon. The peasants did not believe the empty words of the Taoist priest, so they put the matter behind them, and sure enough, there was a strong earthquake near Mount Tai that night.

After all, the sacred beast under Mount Tai is just a legend, no one has ever seen it, and the only stone carvings that are well-known to the public are those that look like turtles.

The rockery in the pool in front of me can float out of the water, could it be that there is also a sage under the rockery, and the tail-like thing is this swagger?

Wu Zhiyuan was suspicious, but saw that the rockery suddenly tilted, the thick tail swept sideways, and the entire mountain slowly climbed ashore from the water.

Watching the rockery-like monster slowly climb up from the pool, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly realized that this was not a rockery at all, but the body of the monster, with several rows of raised bones on its body, which looked like a rockery.

At this time, the monster had already landed on the shore with half of its body, and saw its body turn slightly, stretching out a long neck from the front end, twisting its neck, and looking at Wu Zhiyuan behind him.

The monster probably felt the light from the oil lamp in Wu Zhiyuan's hand, realizing this, Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly used his sleeve to cover the light of the oil lamp, but it was too late, the monster had already twisted its long neck, turned around and saw Wu Zhiyuan, and at the same time, Wu Zhiyuan also saw it.

It was not a dragon's son, not a scumbag, but a turtle or a crocodile. If it is a turtle, its back and flesh spines are very similar to that of a crocodile, and if it is a crocodile, its body and back have a carapace that looks like a turtle. This monster that looks like a turtle is not a turtle, and it looks like a crocodile is not a crocodile, which suddenly reminds Wu Zhiyuan of a monster name that he heard adults say when he was a child: snapping turtle!

It is said that the snapping turtle is fierce like a crocodile, lifespan like a turtle, lurking in the mountains, rivers and ponds, moving quickly, and being ferocious by nature, but also invulnerable, encountering this kind of monster can only sit and wait for death.

Wu Zhiyuan immediately remembered that there was the lower body of a human corpse under the table in the study room full of organs in front of him, and the upper body was in this tomb, and now it seemed that the snapping turtle must have torn it in half.

Just thinking about it, the snapping turtle has climbed ashore from the pool, maybe it has been in the black pool for too long, as soon as it came ashore, there was a fishy smell in the air, and the snapping turtle was relatively sluggish after coming ashore, but it seemed to quickly adapt to the environment on the shore, and its movements became swift, it turned around sharply, and at the same time, its large body like a carriage also turned towards Wu Zhiyuan.

This action obviously took Wu Zhiyuan as the target of the attack, Wu Zhiyuan was shocked, but he was not confused, knowing that the whole body of the snapping turtle was as hard as a rock, and he would never be able to compete with the peachwood sword in his hand alone, and the only way to escape was to escape.

The snapping turtle opened its mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs and a slender bright red tongue, and made a threatening expression towards Wu Zhiyuan, this kind of monster has no scruples about anything, so it doesn't need to gather momentum, it doesn't need to think about how much strength the other party has, and the next action is very likely to be a swift culling!

The situation can be described as a critical moment, Wu Zhiyuan did not dare to hesitate, his eyes glanced at the stone door of the tomb was not far from his left, so he did not hide his intentions, and rushed towards the position of the stone gate.

Unexpectedly, the snapping turtle is not an ordinary beast, it has already understood Wu Zhiyuan's intentions, and its body pounced forward violently, like a huge stone wall blocking Wu Zhiyuan's front, only to see it standing on all fours, just like an angry rooster, and the fierce attack can already be predicted.

Seeing that the way was blocked, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered that ordinary monsters were more afraid of fire, and hurriedly shook the oil lamp in his hand at the snapping turtle's head as a warning.

Unexpectedly, instead of being afraid of the oil lamp, the snapping turtle swayed its head a few times with the shaking of the oil lamp.
