Chapter Eighty-Eight: Stone Carving Divine Beast

"Don't worry, Yan'er, I can't remember the things in that book, it was just my father who recorded my uncle's anecdotes, and then my father saw that I was bored, so he drew an album for me to pass the time."

Youlan's voice was gentle and gentle, and the wild goose seemed to have an illusion, feeling that the temperature of this stone room had risen several degrees.

"Yan'er, look at this stone carving."

Youlan led the wild goose and brought her to the stone sculpture, and then said: "This statue looks like a fish but not a fish, although it has a fish body but has wings, I remember that the album says that this kind of fish is called a silverfish, and it is said that its appearance will bring floods." ”

Luo Yan nodded as if she didn't understand, just waiting for Youlan to continue.

"The one on the left of the silverfish should be cunning."

"Cunning?" Luo Yan asked puzzled.

"Yes, this cunning is this dog with leopard spots and horns on its head, but although it looks a little ugly, it symbolizes a good harvest."

Luo Yan nodded and continued to be a good boy who was eager to learn.

"Next to the cunning is the Han pestle, the human face is tiger-footed and pig-toothed, the legend is that it is a man-eating beast, and it is where there is no grass."

Luo Yan stared at the stone sculpture of Han Qi, shivered a little in her heart, patted her chest to soothe herself, and waited for Youlan to continue.

"The same as the Han Qi is the Hao Bi next to him, the hair is as big as a flute, and our crown hat needle is this kind of thing."

"Hao Yu still has it?" , Luo Yan asked curiously.

"Similar offspring, right? I don't know very well. ”

Salted vegetables protested in a small voice in his heart: "Hao Yu is long gone, and now its descendants have long lost their original appearance." ”

"This is the Dijiang, round and flat, without ears, eyes, mouth and nose, but he knows how to sing and dance, with six feet and four wings."

"The pig, with only one horn on its head, is said to be able to distinguish straight and straight, and can also find treacherous eunuchs."

"Huh, it looks like a wild cat, it has only one eye but three tails, and it can be raised to ward off evil spirits."

"The last one is the tengu, whose white head is like a cattle, and its sound is also a good beast that must be vicious."

Luo Yan nodded thoughtfully, then pointed to the middle one, and then said, "What is the stone carving in the middle?" ”

Youlan took Luo Yan's hand and came to the statue, and then said: "This is Bai Ze, with the body of a lion, with two horns on his head and a sheep's beard. Legend has it that Bai Ze knows everything and can speak human words. ”

"Sister Nalan, do you know how to open that gate?"

Luo Yan can't understand these fantasy things, but if Youlan knows this, does that mean that this mechanism formation can be cracked?

Youlan looked at these stone carvings thoughtfully, these stone carvings were arranged in order, and they were definitely not placed randomly.

But after looking around by myself just now, it doesn't seem to be ranked according to good luck and evil, which is a bit difficult.

"There is a button in the middle of these stone pillars, Sister Lan, do you think this is going to be pressed in a certain order?"

Luo Yan curiously touched the raised stones, but she didn't dare to press it, in case there was a mechanism or something, her little life would not be guaranteed.

Youlan listened to Luo Yan's words, and then took a closer look, sure enough, there is a button under these nine stone carvings, and then look at this arrangement, Youlan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, could it be that this is the nine palace gossip that the clansmen said?

With this idea, when Youlan looked at those stone carvings again, she had a rule in her heart.

If you look at it according to the gossip of the five elements, this Bai Ze is in the middle, and it is the fifth place in the palace. With a cross, then you only need to determine due north, because in the whole hexagram, there is only one water level.

And due north belongs to the water level, silverfish? Right! Silverfish Xiao water!

Youlan was a little excited, and when she saw Luo Yan looking at her with a puzzled gaze, she thought about it, but still didn't speak. These things are still too profound for Luoyan, so let yourself unravel them alone.

This silverfish is due north, living in the Kan one, then next to it is: cunning (Gen Ba), Han Qi (Zhen San), Hao Yu (Xun Si), Dijiang (Lijiu), Qi Zhu (Kun Er), Zhen (Duiqi), Tengu (Qianliu).

The order from one to nine is just right! As long as you follow the hexagram number, you can open the stone gate!

Youlan was already extremely excited at this time, and said loudly: "Yan'er, I already know all about this mystery, but I really don't know how to talk to you." ”

Luo Yan waved his hand indifferently, and then said: "Sister Nalan doesn't say it, it's strange cold here, and it's not a good thing to leave here earlier." ”

Youlan nodded, took Luo Yan's hand and began to press the buttons on the stone carving: Silverfish, Pig, Hanji, Haobi, Bai Ze, Tengu, Zhen, Cunning, Dijiang.

With Youlan's movements, the pressed stone sculptures turned around in turn, and the "click" sound made by the friction of the stones echoed in the stone chamber one after another.

Finally, when the last button was pressed, all the stone sculptures turned around, and then slowly sank, and from the sinking point gradually returned some crescent-colored liquid, which followed the groove to the stone door.

"Don't step on it."

Youlan whispered to Luo Yan that although she didn't know what this liquid was, it was probably better to be careful.

Luo Yan nodded, and followed Youlan cautiously across the grooves, just waiting for the stone door to open.

Sure enough, as the liquid slowly flowed towards the stone gate, the door changed.

Originally, the eyes of the two of them were attracted by the stone carving, so they did not come forward to investigate the stone gate, but at this time, the liquid flooded the gap on the stone door and slowly climbed up, until finally, depicting a totemic appearance.

The totem is like a bird and a beast, standing on the stone door with teeth and claws, the beast on the pattern is about three heads, and the wings are a few pairs, but there is only one foot, but the foot has eight toes.

Luo Yan pointed to the totem and looked at Youlan suspiciously. Youlan thought about it in her mind repeatedly, and made sure that she had never seen it in the painting book, so she shook her head helplessly.

The salted vegetables and flatbread are also looking forward to the opening of the stone gate at this time, and everything has curiosity, not to mention two small things with spirituality? Besides, this place is evil enough for both of them, so although it can't help, it's still curious.

As the totem became more and more obvious, the stone gate gradually began to tremble, and with the fall of lime, the hard gate finally slowly opened upward.

Luo Yan looked at Youlan, tightened his hands, and the two of them took a deep breath, then raised their legs and walked towards the stone gate.

At this time, the stone steps behind him collapsed violently, and the vibration caused by the collapse caused a small part of the back to collapse, and now there was no way to retreat.

Luo Yan and Youlan looked at the situation behind them, and made sure that the collapse did not continue to spread, so they stopped thinking about it and walked hand in hand towards the stone gate.
