Chapter Twenty-Three: A Sudden Change

On the second floor of the palace.

Galeries Lafayette took the lead and swam forward, his eyes shining close to the five rockeries, if outsiders can take a closer look at Lafayette's eyes, then they must be able to see the expectation in his eyes.

Everyone didn't think much about it, they all followed Lafayette to the rockery, and their eyes kept glancing behind them, for fear that the terrible ancestors would rush up.

In fact, that's because they're too worried, the things outside are so big, can they rush in?

Although this house was made by ancient people, the quality and hardness should be quite awesome, and it looks strong, and those monsters will have to spend a lot of effort if they want to break in.

While they spend their efforts to break through, there will naturally be movement on it, and everyone will have some room to react.

After a while, the old man and the others swam to the rockery, looked up and looked inside, and they all clearly saw the jade carving sitting in the middle of the five rockeries.

Judging from the texture, this jade carving should be made of jasper, the appearance of an old Taoist priest, wearing a vividly carved robe, his eyes slightly closed, and his face full of clouds and light wind.

The old man Hai was about to swim around the jade carving to take a look, and when he saw the inscription on the back of the jade carving, he stopped moving.

"Immortal Dao noble life, immeasurable people, green lights return to the sun, and heaven gives eternal life."

These sixteen big characters are clearly engraved on the back of the jade carving, and there is also the signature of Bai Yunzi under it, and the old man Hai knew the time period when the palace was built.

Tianyun Water Palace is estimated to have been made during that time in the Tang Dynasty, and it didn't run.

Of course, it is also possible that it was built by predecessors and then occupied by the Tang Dynasty, which is also uncertain.

"There are other things carved underneath those words, all patterns and small letters." Old Man Hai frowned when he said this, as if he couldn't recall too much of the content, so he could only answer vaguely: "Anyway, I remember that there is a pattern in which there are three coffins, and the other pattern is three coffins that are much smaller, and there is a lamp in the others, and"

As soon as the words fell, Old Man Hai shook his head with a wry smile: "I can't remember clearly, I can only think of one of the ones that I remember a little more now, that is, the inscription under the lamp, the immortal bureau, the lamp as an eye, the yin copper casting, and the white whisker core."

I listened and pondered in my head.

Judging from this, it should be talking about the structure and function of the green lantern.

The first three words, the Immortal Bureau, refer to the battle that makes people return to the yang from death and live forever.

This was written in Zuo Ci's "Tao Ji", and I remember it very clearly.

The lamp is the eye, this should be said, the green light is the eye of the immortal array.

As for the yin copper casting and white whisker core in the back, it is said that the structure of the yang green lamp is returned.

Yin copper is estimated to be a special metal material, although I have always thought that the green lantern is cast in bronze, but from this point of view, it seems that Bai Yunzi is a person who understands and knows very well the material of the green lantern.

I don't understand what copper is, but it still sounds awesome.

The white whisker core, that is, the wick of the green lantern, which should be with the lamp, we didn't get this thing, so we haven't seen it.

"We didn't expect that when everyone approached the jade carving to study it carefully" Old Man Hai's eyes were faintly red, and there was an unconcealable sourness in his cloudy gaze.

The scene on the second floor of the Tianyun Water Palace made everyone forget about the danger behind for a while, although the eight monsters were still chasing them behind, but those monsters in this place obviously couldn't enter.

The closest person to the jade carving was Lafayette, who was not only looking at the contents behind the jade carving, but also scanning the interior of the palace with his eyes, as if looking for something.

At that time, Old Man Hai could understand what he was looking for.

As if before departure, Galeries Lafayette took out the contents of the stone tablets.

"Bohai Tibetan Palace."

"There are 100 traces of the real door."

"There is no end to evil."

"Baoluo Baiyundong."

The first three sentences can be ignored for the time being, but the last sentence is probably related to this jade carving.

Could the white cloud mentioned in the sentence refer to the statue of this white cloud?

Baoluo Baiyundong, does it mean that the real treasure is on the east side of the Baiyunzi statue?

Just when everyone hurried to look at these rockeries and jade carvings, Second Master Hai suddenly shuddered, and he didn't know what Lu Dao had seen, and his eyes suddenly became frightened.

"Big brother, there is no secret door here, could it be that you are looking for a mistake." Second Master Hai anxiously gestured with his hand and whispered to Old Man Hai: "This Laoshizi thing doesn't look right, I'm afraid I'm afraid I've seen an evil thing." ”

Old Man Hai was stunned for a moment, and he also gestured with his hand and whispered: "What evil thing?" Don't talk nonsense! ”

"When I was looking at this jade carving, it seemed that its eyes blinked."

Everyone present could understand the code words of the hand gesture in the line, and when they saw Hai Erye say this, Lafayette made a move, hurriedly swam back for a long distance and retreated, and then asked Hai Erye: "You're not mistaken, right?" ”

"No, I can see it clearly." Second Master Hai replied.

"Let's hurry back, find a way out first, and then think about the baby." Old Man Hai immediately made a decision and made such a gesture to everyone, but Lafayette obviously didn't think so, he hesitated for a while, and gestured: "You guys retreat first, I'll go to the east of this statue to see, maybe I can find the treasure." ”

Without waiting for the crowd to stop him, Lafayette followed the instructions of the compass and swam towards the east.

The direction of the jade carving of white clouds is very regular.

Facing north, with your back to the south, and the east on your right, if there is really a treasure hidden in this direction, you may be able to find something if you look carefully.

At this moment, the entire hall suddenly shook violently, and everyone only felt that their eyes were dazzled, and they were shaking in all directions, including the ceiling.

The speed of Lafayette's reaction was unusual, and as soon as the vibration of the hall began, Lafayette's body sank as if it had suddenly become heavier.

I saw him kick the ground with both feet, and with a series of visible bubbles behind him, he rushed straight towards the old man Hai and they fled.

This time the speed was much faster than the speed at which they had fled outside the palace before.

Afterwards, Lafayette said a word to the old man Hai.

"At that time, I had a feeling that if I didn't run, I would die." There was no joke on Lafayette's face when he said this, only solemnity, a solemnity mixed with fear.

No one expected that it was this intuition that caused Lafayette not to die tragically in the palace, but to escape the raid.

When he just rushed out of a distance of about three meters, the vibration of the main hall suddenly intensified a lot, and I saw a bunch of dense bubbles coming out of the original position of Lafayette, which looked like smoke, and then

"A claw pierced the floor and came up from underneath." Old Man Hai said, tremblingly lit another cigarette, and said in a trembling tone: "That claw is the claw of those monsters, the width of the palm alone is two meters, if it weren't for Lafayette to escape quickly, this claw could pinch him to death." ”

Seriously, this time almost didn't scare everyone present, and those who were not at the scene definitely didn't feel that sense of panic that was irresistible.

One claw clawed at the ground not far away, the claw was thin and slender, no different from the palm of a human hand.

The nails seem to be fused with the fingers, there are no nail covers, and the fingertips seem to be cast from metal, showing a reflective jet black.

Galeries Lafayette was still rushing forward, and there was a faint confusion in his eyes about things beyond his control, and I am afraid he didn't expect those things to come so quickly.

The claw seemed to have eyes, and when it saw that it didn't catch anyone, it immediately put it down, and then went a few meters forward and broke through the floor tiles and stretched out, clearly trying to fight to the death with Lafayette.

I didn't grasp it, I took it back, and then I went some distance forward, and stretched it out again, this series of movements sounded slow, but in fact it was not slow at all, almost in the blink of an eye.

The location of the second master of the sea is the outermost place of everyone, and it is also the closest place to Lafayette.

Seeing that Lafayette was running towards him, Second Master Hai didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went up to meet him, intending to drag Lafayette back and throw him back, and he also kicked the ground and fled with his strength, so as not to be pinched by this claw.

When there was a move, he also gestured to the others, telling them to rush out first, and he immediately followed.

Old Master Hai didn't think much about it, and ran away without saying a word, after all, Second Master Hai's skills are the most powerful in the Hai family, and it should be no problem for him to take care of an errand like Lafayette.

It should be fine, right?

Old Man Hai asked himself, and then he had an answer, no problem.

But it was such a thought that directly made Second Master Hai die.

None of the people present thought of an important point.

Monsters don't just have one hand, and the monsters that come after them are not one, but eight

"As soon as we escaped, a few meters away, three or four paws stretched out from the floor, but they didn't catch us" Old Man Hai buried his head slightly, and his fingers holding the cigarette trembled violently: "The second son was caught by the monster a second, and he used all his strength to drag Lafayette, sending him away from the area with the most dense claws, saving his life, but the second son"

Under the gaze of everyone, Second Master Hai was dragged by the hands and claws of the two monsters, and was torn in half without warning, and the blood mixed with the internal organs stained the pure sea water in this palace.

The eyes full of reluctance never closed again, as if they had lost all their weight, and their heads swayed towards the ceiling.

The movements of everyone present froze in an instant.

"Second son" Old Man Hai finally couldn't control his emotions, and two lines of old tears slowly flowed out of his eyes: "I don't dare to think about what happened that day all these years, when I think about it, I hate it, why is it not me but the second son who died?!" ”

"I just felt empty, but I didn't expect that this was just the beginning."
