Volume 2 Eyes of the Deep Chapter 65 The Father-Son Love is Deep
Zhou Cheng said with some surprise: "The moving islands and reefs? ”
Lantern Xiao frowned, "How is that possible!" Unless the reef is alive. ”
Wen Mo said lightly: "In this case, maybe it's not an island or reef at all, it's just the back of some kind of marine creature." ”
Wen Mo's words surprised us, he is by no means the kind of person who likes to joke, if he says so, then there must be his basis and reason. This statement does sound a little unbelievable at first, but when we think back to our experience along the way, and the sea monster we encountered, there may indeed be creatures with a back as big as an island in the depths of this endless sea.
It seems that the owner of this diary has also experienced a lot of hardships and dangers when he came here. I was anxious to know what was going on, so I urged Lantern Xiao to take a look at the content behind.
Lantern Xiao quickly flipped back and looked back, muttering in his mouth, "I'll take a look, don't worry, I'll take a look...... "Lantern Xiao flipped all the way to the back position, "Here's an article, which is written like this: Today's weather is foggy, according to the route of the team leader's boss, we arrived at the target island, and I don't feel good here." Since two of the four owners of the hired boat had an accident on the way here, they were understaffed, and the owner of the tour leader wanted me to go to the island with them and help them get their things. And promised to triple the commission after the work was done. Although I was a little nervous, I decided to take a chance! ”
"Alas, poor man," said Lantern Xiao, "this one took a risk, and he really put his life into it." "For this person's experience, we are all embarrassed, I even remembered myself who entered the ancient tomb of Qilian Mountain in a daze, our experience is somewhat similar, but I am more stupid, this person is at least for money, I am purely for face. However, I was fortunate that in such a sinister place, nine deaths and one life actually made me get away with my whole body.
Lantern Xiao continued to look back, "This is the last one, it should have been written before he died, and the content is like this: I really can't imagine what we have all experienced along the way, I want to leave, but I can't go back." And now that I'm sitting here with a serious injury, I know I'm afraid I won't be able to get out. I miss my home very much, I miss my dad very much, I regret it, I don't know if my dad can bear it after I die. I studied art, every time I painted, my father would praise me for my good drawing, but until today, unfortunately I did not paint a portrait of him, now I rely on the appearance of my father in my mind, I simply draw a picture for him, if anyone comes in in the future, please bring it to my father, tell him, I hope he can live a good life......"
Lantern Xiao read this, suddenly choked, the hands holding the notebook were a little trembling, he couldn't read it anymore, my heart was also very uncomfortable, suddenly I also blamed myself very much, I felt sorry for my parents, the experience of this time, whether it was Qilian Mountain or here, how many times I brushed shoulders with death, if I really died here, how should my parents bear it. I secretly made up my mind to go to TM's curiosity, to TM's secrets, to TM's mystical powers, and to TM's artifacts. This kind of thing, Lao Tzu will never participate in it again!
Lantern Xiao sniffled and took a deep breath, "There is nothing in the back, only a pencil sketch, and nothing else," as soon as Lantern Xiao's voice fell, he immediately said again: "Hey, no, there is a photo on the inside of this notebook cover, it should be a photo of their father and son, alas!" As he spoke, Lantern Xiao sighed again.
I reached for my notebook and wanted to see the sketch and the photo, but when I looked at the sketch, my eyes could no longer move, the lines of the sketch shook very much, it seemed that this person was really trying his last strength when he painted this picture, but even so, I could still clearly see the features and outlines of this person, I felt that this person was very familiar.
When I saw that picture, I felt like I was electrocuted, a thrill.
The second uncle leaned over and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
I handed the photos and sketches to the second uncle and asked, "Second uncle, look at who this is?" ”
The second uncle took it and looked at it, and his face changed, "This, this is the old thunder head!" ”
I nodded and looked at the corpse on the ground next to me, "It seems that this is his son Xiao Lei." "I was filled with emotion in my heart, thinking of the poor old man, although he had put a spirit flag on the ship, although he intellectually felt that his son was probably more than lucky, but in the conversation with him, I could clearly feel that he still had a glimmer of hope for his son's safe return, but today, his hope was shattered.
I remembered what Boss Ding said on their boat during the Lantern Festival. Is the old thunder head we met and the dead old thunder head in Boss Ding's mouth a person, is the one we met really a ghost? But if it's not a person, why do they have such similar experiences?
I reached out and took the notebook and photos from my second uncle's hand, and carefully put them into my backpack, "When I get out, no matter whether the old thunder head is dead or alive, I hope this can give him an explanation." Listening to my words, the second uncle nodded.
Lantern Xiao stood up and sighed, "The deceased is gone, let's continue!" Let's go, take a look at it. ”
So we continued up the stone steps, this time again led by Wenmo. When we walked the first part of the steps just now, we didn't know that there would really be a crossbow arrow mechanism, so we weren't very nervous, but now we know that there are traps buried on both sides of the stone steps.
When we walked to the top of this stone staircase and came to the second platform, I was already sweating profusely, my heartbeat was at least more than one hundred and sixteen, I was almost prostration, Lantern Xiao and Zhou Cheng were no better than me, the second uncle and Wenmo were quite calm, this is the experience of countless practices and the rich experience accumulated, we really have nothing to say.
There's nothing nice about this platform, it's pretty much the same as the next. It's just that corresponding to the stone beast on the platform below, in the direction of moderate achievement, two statues of Zhenhai Divine Beasts with identical bird bodies and human heads are also placed.
We stood here and looked up and down, and it was a three-story altar, and the top floor should be the top floor.
I looked up and asked, "What the hell is this place?" It looks like an altar, much like the mound of the Temple of Heaven. ”
The second uncle nodded, "That's right, this is an altar, and there is usually a god statue or a so-called holy relic enshrined on it. In short, there must be a good thing on it, not necessarily precious, but it must be a symbol of authority and power. ”
As soon as the second uncle's words fell, Lantern Xiao's eyes immediately lit up.
I was puzzled and asked, "What is the difference between this and the tomb outside, the function is very similar?" ”
Before the second uncle could speak, Lantern Xiao rushed to say: "Oh, this is not simple, have you ever added that in the temple, the incense burner and the main hall dedicated to the gods are separated, this is the same reason." ”
The second uncle smiled faintly, "Well, it's almost." ”
I glanced at Lantern Xiao, and I knew that he was in a hurry to get the upper layer of the artifact, "You are stimulating the things above, this stimulation has increased your IQ!" ”
Lantern Xiao waved his hand, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up!" ”
At the urging of the Lantern Festival, we continued to go up, and then it was a thrilling trip to the stone steps, and I asked the second uncle why he didn't use the method you just used to trigger it directly.
The second uncle shook his head and told me that there is a corresponding solution to everything, and the same is true for the mechanisms in the ancient tomb, and it is safest to use the corresponding method. Triggering it doesn't necessarily mean it's safe, because many mechanisms are set up in multiple layers, and even if they are triggered, they only remove the first layer of mechanisms, and when they are triggered again, they will immediately trigger the second layer of mechanisms, and they will still die miserably at that time, so it is the right way to do it step by step.
Although the word righteous path sounds a little strange for a big tomb robber to say, I have to admit that the second uncle has a lot of sense.
When we came to the top of the three-story altar, we were surprised to find that on this floor, there was not something like authority and power as we had predicted, but this was not the case, not only was there no so-called holy relic, but there was a black coffin in the middle.
We were all stunned all of a sudden, Lantern Xiao opened her mouth and asked, "Second uncle, what symbol are you talking about, where is it?" ”
I patted the Lantern Festival, "It's over, your hope of holding the artifact is shattered again." ”
"That's not necessarily," Lan Xiao pouted, "It's not that there are no artifacts here, but it's already packed," said Lan Xiao, pointing to the coffin, "It's all in there, and good things are indispensable." "I'll go! I'm really convinced of this fat man!
Lantern Xiao approached the second uncle and Wen Mo, "Two masters, do you want to open the coffin and take a look?" ”
The second uncle glared at him, "What's the panic, hairy hands and feet, didn't your father teach you, the coffin door box can't be moved, understand!" "I've heard a lot about what the second uncle said, which means coffins, corpses, all kinds of tomb doors and all kinds of boxes found, whether it's stone boxes or wooden boxes, in short, these things are easy to be placed, so they can't be moved, otherwise it's easy to be hit.
Of course, Lantern Xiao had heard such a statement, and hurriedly nodded yes.
I also walked over and said, "Second uncle, this place is not the same as you just speculated, this is not like an altar of worship?" ”
The second uncle also smacked his lips, frowned and said: "It's really a bit strange here, look at this coffin, this should be a burial chamber, and it should be buried in the main burial chamber Xiongnu Shan Yu's cronies or relatives." But looking at this three-tiered round altar, it's like an offering altar, I really can't understand it. ”
