Chapter 20: Money Pool

The night sky is full of stars, and in the darkness a fire lights up half the world, and the rustling of the wind can occasionally be heard in the darkness "I haven't had time to introduce myself just now, my name is Ah Yi, and I am the hunting leader of our tribe." ”

"My name is Ouye. They are babbling, Ni Xue and Chen Xi. ”

Ou Ye introduced.

"Speaking of the bone claw worm just now, do you know the person behind this?"

"I heard that this person is called ugly, and he takes people's greed as the source of his health, and he used to occasionally hear the news of bone claw insects catching people, but I never thought that he would use the old man in broad daylight to absorb the essence of human beings. ”

"It's horrible. ”

"In this way, the wordless book of heaven should be in the hands of this ugly person. ”

Babbling also participated in this conversation.

"So we're going to go to Money Pool early tomorrow morning. ”

"It's a special name!"

When Ou Ye heard this name, he felt that this place was related to money and wealth, and Ah Yi's words confirmed a point, he said: "But everyone should be careful, I heard that Qiantan can use gold and silver treasures to confuse our minds, and the coefficient of danger we encounter is very large, so everyone should be careful." ”

"But you just happened to be in the stone house, and now you are so good at taking us to find this ugly one. ”

Babbling asked alertly.

"Actually, as soon as he drove into the Crown Forest, our people already found out, and they were always watching you at first. ”

Ah Yi pointed at Ou Ye and said.

"You're spying on us?"

Ou Ye was surprised.

"I'm not done yet. ”

Ah Yi fiddled with the fire, "At first, we wanted to see what you outsiders wanted to do, but then we saw that you know a lot about the environment here, so of course we are also waiting to see what happens. And you've been in that hut for two days before you come out. And with an elf that he thought was extinct for a long time. So we followed you to this stone house. If we hadn't found out that you had been caught, we wouldn't have come out to help you deal with them. ”

"Okay, so you say you know who's behind them? Can you tell me more about that?"

Babbling is a little convinced of what Ah Yi said.

"It took us a long time to find out that this ugly man nicknamed 'Money Master' was ugly, but we didn't have any specific information. I only heard that this money owner has had a strange disease since he was a child, and he has never seen his true face. Later, a coin palace was built in the money pool, and it was said that it was very dangerous. But none of the people who went in ever came out. ”

"Sounds horrible in that place!"

When Ou Ye heard this, he became more interested.

"I haven't been anyway. ”

Ah Yi added.

"Then tell me what's going on with the bone clawworm?"

"We've never seen this thing in our area before, and since that ugly guy came here, this kind of thing has appeared in the forest here, and our people have been following them for a long time, but now they actually found the old man's stronghold, which is really more and more cunning. ”

"Many of my fellow villagers have been captured by these bone claw worms, it's really hateful!"

Ah Yi came out of his mouth with such a sentence.

"Your people have been caught by those bone claw worms, too!"

"yes! I don't know what the situation is now. ”

Ah Yi said with a hint of sadness.

"They were hunting, and hundreds of bone claw worms attacked our village, and we didn't have time to take precautions. ”

Ou Ye could see that Ah Yi clenched his fists as he said this, and the anger was evident on his face.

"Listen to what you really say, this ugly person should not be easy to deal with. So many bone claw worms. ”

Babbling a little thoughtfully.

"If we could, I think we could work together to deal with them. ”

Ah Yi looked at several of his companions, and they all nodded.

"Since my friends have agreed, then we can give full play to our bow and arrow advantages, I wonder how powerful you are?"

"We're all ordinary people, except for babbling and elves who know some magic. ”

Ou Ye replied embarrassedly.

"You are so humble, how can you not be so capable of getting rid of the siege of water and grass so easily!"

"You know that. Then it's a word."

Ou Ye and Ah hit their palms.

Babbling looked at this Ah Yi with some doubts, but everyone slept very deeply this night, and no one seemed to try to disturb them.

A ray of sunlight shone on Ou Ye's face, Ou Ye tried to open his heavy eyelids, except for a small soldier on night duty, everyone else was still asleep there, Ou Ye came to the end of the road, condescending to look at the mountains in the distance.

Suddenly, he saw the shadow of a person on the top of the mountain in the distance, glowing faintly in the sunlight, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Ou Ye didn't pay much attention to what was happening in front of him, and after a while, everyone woke up, Ni Xue and Chen Xi looked very good after a night of recovery, so everyone ate some coarse grain and continued to set off towards Qiantan.

Babbling took Ou Ye aside and said, "Are we really going to be with them?"

"Or else?"

"Aren't you afraid of any conspiracy they have?"

"Conspiracy? Unlikely!"

"This is the first time we've met them. ”

"Speaking of which, do I still trust you?"

Babbling looked stunned, "I do have my purpose, but it will definitely not do you any harm." ”

After babbling and turning away, Ou Ye also felt that he had said the wrong thing, but he felt that the most basic trust in others should still be there, but Ou Ye also felt that the babbling made sense.

Although these people know the way, they still have to pay attention to their every move.

After that, they didn't bother all the way, and Ah Yi and his fellow villagers led the way in front, and they didn't look unusual.

Soon they came to a glacial lake that shimmered with thousands of lights, or rather, a crystal glacial lake.

It can be seen that its narrow "body"

Sandwiched between two cliffs, it is like a diamond necklace set in this mountain.

"Behold, on the hill on the other side of the lake stands that ugly palace. ”

Ou Ye looked in the direction of Ah Yi's finger, behind the dazzling mirror, the towering hill was black, looking like the shadow of a tree, and bare, and on the top of the hill was a round copper coin shape.

From a distance, you can see its magnificence.

"This place is called Diamond Lake, where the goddess of light once lived and has been guarding this place, and this was our daily fishing ground before, but after the ugly appeared, the goddess of light disappeared, and a female lake demon appeared. Later, our people never came out from here, and no one dared to come here. ”

Ah Yi looked a little lost when he said this.

"In that case, there are some traps or something like that. Is there any other way to get there?"

Ou Ye thought with his cheeks on his back.

"Hey, you see, there are cliffs on both sides, and the hills at the other end are in the lake, and there is a way for anyone to choose such a terrible path. ”

Ah kept shaking his head and said.

"It seems that we still have to cross this lake, but I don't know if the ice is thick or not, and I can freeze after the ice cracks, so I take the lead, and everyone will follow me later, and it is better to stay together when we pass, and don't get lost. ”

After speaking, Ou Ye was the first to step into the lake, the lake seemed to be frozen by a thick layer of ice, but the strange thing was that Ye couldn't feel the cold air released by the ice, Ou Ye stepped on two steps and suddenly stopped and looked, those ice layers were very angular, he asked Ah Yi for a bow and arrow, the arrow of this bow and arrow was forged with iron, but Ou Ye just stuck it so the ice, and the arrow was deformed, this is the so-called sensitive sense of smell for his own work, for a person like him who deals with jewelry every day, he has found that these transparent are not ice but diamonds, but what Ou Ye didn't understand was how there could be such a huge diamond layer on such a huge lake?

"Ouye, can these ice formations pass through safely?"

Ni Xue looked at Ou Ye with a puzzled look on his face and asked.

"Where is the ice! Think about how there is an ice lake here in the summer?"

Ou Ye laughed.

Everyone looked at Ou Ye with puzzled eyes.

"It's a lake full of diamonds. ”

"What?"

Everyone's mouths were so wide that even their jaws were about to drop.

"Then we will not be rich. ”

Chen Xi's eyes lit up.

"There's just one thing I don't understand, how the water vapor that passes through the diamond face is hot. ”

Ou Ye said as he touched the diamond-faced water vapor with his hand.

"It doesn't seem like there will be much of an obstacle moving forward. I just don't know if the whole diamond face will sink because it is too heavy. ”

"It's a joke at this time. ”

Babbling gave Ou Ye a cold look.

"Am I kidding?"

Ou Ye looked at the others innocently, but everyone walked forward one by one and ignored him.

The more they walked towards the center of the lake, the heavier the water vapor became, everyone's hair was a little wet, the mist drifted quietly around them, and a strange lotus flower appeared in front of Ou Ye's eyes, the petals of the lotus flower expanded and contracted in an orderly manner, and it seemed that with each unfolding, there was a little bit of golden light bursting out.

Then a wonderful picture appeared in front of everyone's eyes, those golden lights faded, but formed golden pearls.

After a while, the edge of each lotus tree was filled with golden pearl mountains.

The moisture seems to nourish these pearls with special moisture.

A soldier stepped forward to grab a handful of them, but he didn't catch them, and he was stuck by the pearls, and several creeps tried to pull him, but before they could reach out, the creep had already been sucked into the pearl pile.

He screamed twice and then disappeared.

"Oops! Looks like these pearls are living creatures, we need to get out of here. ”

Ah Yi shouted and ran forward with everyone, but not far away, several of the small soldiers behind him were covered by the mist, and they lost their way.

Ou Ye They only heard a few screams in the mist behind them, taking advantage of the slightly thin mist, Ou Ye found that those pearls were rolling towards them, Ou Ye's head was completely empty at this time, he and the others ran forward, I don't know who suddenly shouted, "There is a tree in front!"

So everyone didn't even think about climbing up one after another.

Those pearls were really strange, and they all rolled under the tree and stopped, and the next picture made everyone stunned, and those pearls suddenly turned around, only to see that they were golden eyes, and everyone shuddered to see them, but they didn't know why they stayed there motionless.

Ou Ye and the others just thought that they could take a short rest and then find a way to leave, but something even more terrible happened, it turned out that the transparent tree was also alive, and its branches began to wrap around Ou Ye and them, becoming more and more, trying to wrap them all.

At that moment, the flames lit up the half-encased tree, and only a shrill cry was heard, and the tree ran and finally fell in the flames, and Ono and the others were thrown several meters away.

In this way, they finally passed through the dangerous mist area, and although they were outside the pool of money, everything in front of them was clear.

The sunlight in the distant sky seemed to be tightly blocked by the clouds, and it was dark and oppressive early in the morning, making people breathless.

There didn't seem to be anything happening along the way, and it seemed that they were about to get to the opposite side, and suddenly the mirror was like layers of waves that knocked them to the ground, pushed back several meters and were made into the air one by one, and a ray of sunlight penetrated in, it was refracted several times in the air, and finally it was like a beautiful scenery painted by a paintbrush, when the light crossed with the ground, a crystal box slowly appeared on the mirror surface, and a woman wearing a crystal coat danced in the crystal box.

He seemed to have a strong attraction, and casually came over, and several men present leaned towards him, which made Ni Xue and babbling anxious, they couldn't stop them who were being controlled, and they were about to be bewitched by her.

"Could this be the legendary Diamond Daughter, but how could he be here?"

"Diamond Girl, don't care about her, how do you deal with her. ”

"Distracted?"

I saw the babbling pick up the bow and arrow dropped by the creep, and then heard the "whoosh"

With a bang, the arrow flew straight towards the Diamond Maiden in the crystal box, and she dodged it one by one, but because of this, Ou Ye and the others all woke up from the spell of the Shadow of Charm.

"What just happened?"

Ou Ye asked.

"The men are really the best people. ”

Ni Xue glanced at Chen Xi.

The Diamond Girl looked annoyed by the sudden interruption in front of her.

"No one has ever dared to disturb my magic, and I don't want to live when I see you. ”

After saying this, I saw a lot of shiny diamonds begin to emerge on the diamond surface, at first it was just a few stars, and then it was unbelievably big, and the beauty was dazzling, and a few of Ah Yi's soldiers accidentally touched those diamonds with their hands.

Touching it, but in the blink of an eye, they also turned into diamonds and sank into the diamond surface with the diamond.

"Don't touch those diamonds, don't fight her, come with me. ”

Ou Ye shouted.

I saw that Ou Ye turned the water vapor in the air into a thin ice crystal path, and everyone jumped on it and ran to the shore, finally escaping.

But before they could recover from it, they were frightened by the sight of the hill made of the skulls of thousands of people.

Suddenly, one by one, the bone claw insects crawled out of the skull wall, this time Ou Ye and they really had no hope in the past, and there was no way back.

"What do we do now?"

Okuno looked at the Skull Hill, and behind them there was a waterfall cascading down the palace on their left.

"Follow me. ”

Ou Ye felt.

They followed Ou Ye to the edge of the waterfall, only to see that Ou Ye stretched out his hands, and the entire waterfall began to condense into ice.

Then a winding ice road appeared in front of them, and Ou Ye immediately stepped on the slope, fortunately, the frosted ice surface was not slippery at all.

One by one, they cautiously walked up against the ice wall.
