Chapter 309: The Mysterious Snake's Den

After Shi Liya's mood calmed down, Li Bing carefully looked at the small temple again, but there was nothing to gain.

He said to himself: "This Yuan Tiangang, in addition to being proficient in astronomy and geography, I Ching gossip, and divination, is also proficient in the design of various mechanisms. ”

He suddenly turned his head to Qian Yiduo and said: "Brother Qian, tomb robbery is your specialty, you investigate carefully, will there be any secret rooms under this temple." ”

Qian Yiduo answered, began to look carefully, and from time to time he leaned down, his ears were close to the ground to listen, his face was covered with ash, and sweat washed down, making him a big face, and amusing everyone,

Qian Yiduo was busy for a long time, and said helplessly: "Li Bing, I don't know if it's because I'm not capable enough, I haven't found that there is any empty echo under this temple, and there shouldn't be an underground secret room." ”

Everyone was disappointed, although Li Bing was also extremely disappointed, he did not give up, and was unwilling to return empty-handed.

He glanced at the small Dragon King Temple a few times, and suddenly said to Zhang Yuanshan: "Brother Zhang, do you remember what happened to the two of us in the tomb of the guardian envoy of King Yue?" ”

Zhang Yuanshan was stunned, and then understood what Li Bing meant, and he blurted out: "That's right, at that time, I asked you to respect the deceased, after the incense, you kowtowed, but you accidentally touched that ingenious opportunity, so as to escape the fate of random arrow shooting, and thus discovered the secret of the Yin and Yang Treasure Mirror, Li Bing, you mean that Yuan Tiangang may also have set up a subtle mechanism in this small temple." ”

Li Bing said: "That's right, Brother Zhang, I think it should be like this, so let's go separately and look for it, and observe carefully inside and outside the temple to see if there is anything unusual." ”

Everyone felt that it made sense, so everyone got busy, searched carefully, and couldn't wait to turn this small temple upside down.

However, the result disappointed everyone, and no valuable clues were found.

The climate in the mountains is changing, just now it was still sunny, and now it is already cloudy.

After a while, lightning and thunder roared, and the wind blew fiercely, and then a torrential downpour poured down from the sky.

A few people no longer bothered to look for clues, and they all ran to the small temple to take shelter from the rain.

Helplessly, this broken temple after more than 1,000 years, although miraculously preserved, but also dilapidated, it is raining heavily outside, and it is also raining lightly inside the temple.

Zhang Yuanshan smiled bitterly: "Could it really be that the Dragon Lord has appeared, I will put on the pillar incense again, it may be that the Dragon Lord is angry, blame us for offending him." ”

Zhang Yuanshan took out the incense candle, but it was not lit, and suddenly the temple was bright again.

Everyone couldn't help but be amazed, the climate in this mountain is really extraordinary, after a heavy rain, at this time, the clouds and rain dissipated, and it became bright as ever.

The remaining roof of the temple is still dripping with rain, and everyone is ready to relax outside the temple, breathe in the fresh air after the rain in the mountains, and bask in the bright sunshine at the same time.

Zhang Yuanshan is the only one who stayed, and he didn't think that this was a special climate change in the mountains like everyone else, but that the dragon king had appeared.

Especially after he said that he wanted to incense the dragon king, the rain suddenly stopped, which made him even more convinced of this.

Zhang Yuanshan lit the incense, held it in his hand, and bowed a few times to the headless dragon king statue.

When he bowed down, a few drops of rain poured into his neck, making him feel so uncomfortable,

Zhang Yuanshan raised his head and looked at the broken roof that was still dripping with rain, and suddenly, he was stunned by a strange phenomenon,

Zhang Yuanshan shouted a few times, Li Bing and the others hurriedly ran into the Dragon King Temple, and they all nervously asked Zhang Yuanshan what happened in the temple to make him scream so much,

Zhang Yuanshan pointed to a roof without tiles near the statue of the Dragon King and shouted, "Look at what those white things are. ”

Everyone raised their heads, and their eyes were fixed on the broken roof above the idol,

What surprised them even more was that the rain washed down washed away the dust and ash on the wooden pillar, and on the exposed wooden pillar, there was a large white trace, which extended to the back of the statue of the dragon king.

After Li Bing bowed to the dragon king's headless god for a few days, he climbed onto the throne and was surprised to find that following the white traces, he actually found a black hole the size of a bowl mouth behind the north of the statue.

What kind of hole is that, it is actually behind the statue, how did that white trace come about, everyone fell into deep thought,

Qian Yiduo suddenly said: "Could it be that this is a hole drilled by a big snake, and these white marks are actually the mucus left by the big snake when it often swims by." ”

This sentence woke up Li Bing, his mind was spinning rapidly, and after a while, he came to a bold conjecture,

Li Bing said: "Let's all imagine, if what Brother Qian said is true, then it is not difficult to understand why the head of the dragon king statue in this temple fell and shattered, I guess, this must be a big snake, drilled out of the hole behind the idol, climbed up along the pillar next to the idol, its tail swept off the head of the idol, and then it lifted the roof tiles and jumped out of the roof." ”

Shi Liya said: "That's right, I guess it should be like this, those white traces, indicating that this is the big snake often crawling, this will be left, to confirm this conjecture, we only have to climb to the roof of the small temple to see, we can understand whether this guess is correct." ”

And all the people agreed, and came outside the temple,

Zhang Yuanshan squatted down, used his shoulders to support the thin Qian Yiduo, and slowly leaned towards the roof.

Qian Yiduo, who had just seen the roof, exclaimed: "I found it, there is indeed an obvious white mark on this roof, which shows that our idea is not wrong." ”

When Qian Yiduo jumped off Zhang Yuanshan's shoulder, Li Bing said impatiently: "Everyone quickly search around that white shadow, I speculate that there should still be that white trace near here." ”

After a while, everyone really found the white trace from the grass more than ten meters away, and to their surprise, the white trace actually led to the direction of Xiaochenzhuang at the foot of the mountain.

Li Bing stared at Xiaochenzhuang at the foot of the mountain, his heart suddenly brightened, and he said excitedly: "Xiaochenzhuang, what that aunt said is all the truth, that madman was indeed frightened and went crazy, he saw the dragon, in fact, it was this thick snake, it often followed the same road to Xiaochen Village at the foot of the mountain, and stole all the livestock in the village, even including the dog that guarded the house." ”

Zhao Wan'er asked nervously: "I'm most afraid of snakes, Li Bing, where do you say this big snake will be now, if it is nearby, it will really scare me to death." ”

Li Bing smiled and said, "Wan'er, don't be afraid, I will protect you." ”

He asked Qian Yiduo with a smile: "Brother Qian, you are a master of tomb robbery, you said that there is no secret room underground, I absolutely believe it, but have you ever thought about it, we have found the hole of this big snake, it is behind the statue, so let's think about it, where will this big snake hide." ”
