Chapter 63: The Dragon's Lair
After diving into the lake under the Huilongtan, we followed the little sturgeon all the way into the dark river, but after a chase by the devil electric eel, we ran away, and until now, we don't know where the road ran to and where it is.
Barely crawling out of the empty water inlet, look at this cave is vast, extending in all directions, and the people of the Fish Head Gang are also there, if there is no appearance of this fat golden rat, I and the miscellaneous hair Xiaodao will have to play tricks and fight back with the Fish Head Gang to see if we can find out some details, but at this moment, there is this little animal in front of us, we don't have to take that risk, just follow.
This karst cave is vast, the road is complicated, bypassing one after another stalagmites that grow out of the ground, there are many roads in front of the convenience, there are those that lead to the top, there are those that go down, there are also many holes and dead ends, there are many complicated and numerous, if there is no one to lead the way, I am afraid that I will turn here for three days and three nights, and I can't find a result.
Although we also followed, we also paid some attention, so that the little demon was watching behind, but we couldn't let this seemingly cute little fat mouse trick us. Although there is no white pie in the sky, and the appearance of this inexplicable little animal who is attentive to the flowers is very suspicious, but after all, we have no way out, so we can only make such a hasty decision first.
After walking for more than half an hour, the dragon and the golden rat didn't seem to know the road, sniffing and sniffing, and the fan-like ears were opened and put away from time to time, and they stopped and stopped all the way, which really wasted a lot of time, but one thing was more or less reassuring, that is, we went all the way, and there was no common dead end, which showed that this little animal was really as legendary, and was a natural treasure hunting master, which seemed to be a fake.
There is no road at the end of the road, at the beginning you can hear the sound of rushing water, the tide is born, to the end, there is a curtain of white flowers in front of you, hanging directly on the opposite side of a river, the cave we walk in is wide enough for six people to walk together, it is still dry, but in front of this sudden appearance across the river, there are many dark green moss, it looks quite slippery.
The river is not wide, three or four meters, there is a fault on it, and our opposite side is a water curtain that covers the entire field of vision, the water of the dark river falls down in the drop above, rumbling, just now when I turned the corner, I didn't feel it, now I come over, I only feel that the ear socket buzzes non-stop, big drops of water beads fall across the river, splashing a lot of water vapor of broken ends, forming a large area here, white mist, like a fairyland.
The fat little beast stopped before crossing the river, and finally did not run wildly anymore, but turned around, and suddenly rushed into Duoduo's arms, a pair of black pearl-like eyes watery, looking directly at Duoduo's innocent face, chirping, chirping.
We didn't understand these two simple calls, but Duoduo understood, and greeted me excitedly, saying Brother Lu Zuo, when I arrived, Ah Huang said that this is the place we are looking for.
Duoduo was simple-minded, thinking that the dragon was like a golden rat to bring us here, and the purpose of our coming to Dongting Lake this time was about to be achieved, and my heart was happy, and I couldn't help but look radiant, and my little face was proud, but I and the miscellaneous hair Xiaodao and the uncle looked at the water curtain in front of us, and our brows couldn't help but wrinkle. This is not Journey to the West, and the water curtain cave in front of us is not a water curtain cave, looking inside through the water curtain, it is clearly a whole real mountain cliff overhang, where is there any way to go?
Well, we still believe in the wrong little brute, who can play with a sword on applause, and really can't look at it as an ordinary living thing, twisting and turning, turning around for most of the day, and still getting us into a dead end.
At the end of the day, I still had some luck in my heart, picked up a stone the size of a sea bowl on the ground, and threw it at the opposite side, but as soon as I threw it, the stone was smashed into three or two petals by my huge force, and with a clatter, it fell straight into the river below. Miscellaneous Xiaodao frowned, looked at the dark river canal in front of him, which was not very wide, and said that he would not be able to take the waterway again?
I shook my head and called on him and my uncle to keep trying on the seven or eight meters square mountain wall in front of me, and after about two minutes, I finally figured out that there was really no passage behind the water curtain.
Once found out, I am a belly of fire, and do not need to greet, the little demon next to it is a cruel smile, the thief eyebrows, ready to run towards the corner of the dragon elephant golden rat to pull up directly, this fool to the little demon in the hand, it is bigger than the average domestic cat, I don't know how much oil in the belly, the little demon saw it, but also nested fire, stretched out his hand to prepare to put the fat mouse's beard, so that it can eat a lesson.
Duoduo is a kind female doll in the end, seeing that we were about to punish Ah Huang, she turned around and stopped her, saying that Ah Huang would not lie to me, Brother Lu Zuo, the place we are looking for is really here!
Duoduo's insistence has made us cautious, this little Lori has a crystal clear kindness, but also through physical nature, on weekdays to attract cats and dogs, the most kind to animals, this is also the reason why the dragon elephant golden mouse is close to her and not others. There is no water curtain behind it, but in other places, can it be scrutinized? We thought so, and then our eyes kept wandering around, left and right, and finally, on a rock wall on the left, Uncle saw something strange.
This is a short knife carved circle deduction algorithm, there are many terms and patterns in it, quite mysterious, anyway, like me is a little rougher, but from the moss and imprints on this stone carving, it is almost a hundred years old.
This is clearly man-made, and since someone has been here, it means that it is not what we see.
I look at this deduction algorithm, confused, but I have learned the half of the "Golden Seal Jade Letter" of the miscellaneous hair trail but look at it as sweet, that pair of eyes look at the stone carvings on the rock wall, but the hand is constantly pinching the fingers to deduce, and the mouth is constantly muttering, the spirit is extremely excited, I got closer, in addition to hearing many hexagram terms, I also heard his unconscious words: "It's amazing, it's like this, I really didn't expect it......"
This emotion lasted for about ten minutes, and when my uncle and I were about to knock this guy on the back of the head so that he wouldn't have hysteria, he took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out, and sighed in his mouth: "The guy who left this stone carving is really a pedantic celestial array master, such a strange and strange entry method, he can actually peel off the cocoon from the clues!" ”
I listened to him play dumb riddles with my uncle for a long time, and I was already a little impatient, and I couldn't help but be angry when I saw him still playing here, I punched him, and my uncle kicked him, and taught this guy a lesson, and asked him what was going on.
With that, he took out his sword finger with his left hand, and the thunder penalty on his back immediately flew up, and after a few circles in the air, he actually rushed straight ahead.
The thunder punishment sword qi is vertical and horizontal, so strong that it directly cut off the water curtain, and the direction pointed is also carefully calculated by the miscellaneous hair path, and the seven swords are connected, secretly combining the technique of the Big Dipper, from beginning to end, in one go, the scene is extremely fancy, needless to say, and just when we are a little unclear, there is a click, and the natural mountain wall suddenly cracks from the middle, and there is a white light in it shooting towards this side, making people's eyes subconsciously close.
After my vision recovered slightly, I saw that the seven or eight meters of mountain wall in front of me had cracked a big hole at this moment, revealing a steaming passage, and the dragon was like a golden rat chirping, and its hind paws glared, and it directly crossed the dark river in front of it and rushed towards it.
I pushed the arm of the miscellaneous hairy path, what kind of situation, what kind of magic have you become?
Miscellaneous Xiaodao carefully looked at the deduction painting on the stone wall again, and explained to us: "This is the back door of the building in front, it is the escape passage left by the builder, because it is necessary to hide from the overseer of the search, so it has been made a lot more ingenious, this place was originally closed all the year round, but the predecessor depicted on this stone wall is a genius who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, and he directly deduced the layout here just by virtue of the direction of the river and the Qi field, and I just opened the ...... here according to the method he left behind."
The building inside?
Seeing that the miscellaneous trail also stepped in, I pressed the doubts in my heart, jumped over the dark river in front, and walked towards the crack in the mountain wall, this is still a passage, much narrower than the previous one, there is a billowing white mist on both sides, there is an illusion of sauna, the uncle next to him saw this scene, but interjected: "Below this place, there should be geothermal heat, boil the lake water into water vapor, and then ...... Drive the traps! ”
Walked more than ten meters ahead, stepping on the neat marble, we finally saw that at this moment we are not in a natural karst cave, but an underground mausoleum, but surrounded by smoke, the visual distance is only three or two meters, I don't know all the faces.
This passage walked more than ten meters, the front suddenly opened up a little, nothing else to see, but look at the front ten meters there is a sparkling river, not wide, there are five exquisite covered bridges on it, look at it is also magnificent, we are trying to take a look, suddenly at this time, behind the covered bridge poked out a huge and friendless head, lion-eyed ox-nosed wooden branches, scales covered, long whiskers to the ground, is not a real dragon?
