Chapter 82 Test Specimens

Chen Wenjin looked around, walked to the stone platform, stared at the translucent ball, turned his head and said to a few people, "This is probably the immortal laboratory of the Queen Mother of the West, you can see that the things in these balls are exactly the same as the carvings on the ground."

Hearing this, Zhang Qixun walked over, put the light on one side of the ball, looked in from the other side, and found that the things in the ball seemed to be artificially connected.

Most of them were half-cut centipedes and half-snakes, cut off from the waist, then joined together, soaked in a special antiseptic liquid, sealed, and some had long since deteriorated into a mass of cotton wool-like unknown substance.

Several people looked at each other, and they didn't expect that the Queen Mother of the West could have such an advanced and high-tech operation, and in that ancient period, she could already make the corpses of creatures into specimens.

Wu Xiaoxie suddenly thought of a possibility, and hissed, "This is probably really the place where the Queen Mother of the West did the immortality experiment in the early days, the lifespan of human beings is too short, she may want to combine the human body with other long-lived creatures, but she also wants to combine the body to have the original mind of the person, so the two depictions under the stone bricks are human heads and monster bodies."

Chen Wenjin confirmed his guess, "But it is obvious that she failed, so she thought of using alchemy to continue to find the method of immortality."

The fat man gasped, "Then according to what you said, it is really possible for the Queen Mother of the West to create the elixir of immortality?" If that were the case, wouldn't we have met the old woman when we entered the real palace?"

Wu Xiaoxiao laughed and said: "This possibility is almost zero, if she is really immortal, then there will definitely be relevant records in history, don't forget that her old friend King Zhou Mu has long failed to live forever, and turned into a bloody corpse for the little brother and Mu Yu to cut off their heads."

The fat man scratched his head and smiled, "That's right."

After turning around a few times, I saw that they were still staring at those balls and studying, so I was a little impatient and said, "It doesn't matter if he succeeds or not, let's think about how to get out of here first."

Zhang Qixun patted him with a smile, "Don't worry, isn't this being studied, the ingenuity to go out must be on these balls."

At this time, the little brother walked to the stone wall, stretched out his hand and tapped it gently, touched it with his hand, and said lightly, "The back of this wall is empty."

"Look." Zhang Qixun lifted his chin, "Isn't there a way out."

The fat man eagerly took out the detonator from his backpack, his face was full of excitement, and urged: "Dute Niang's hurry up, the fat man is going to kill."

The little brother stretched out his hand to stop him and shook his head, "You can't blow it up."

Wu Xiaoxie also disagreed, "The structure here is not particularly strong, if you blow it up, the entire stone chamber will collapse, and we won't be able to get out at that time."

The fat man put away the detonator and sighed pretendedly, "My dear detonator is useless today."

Wu Xiaoxie smiled and grabbed his shoulders and brought him to the side, "Okay, our inverted bucket is the strongest bomb king, move a place, don't disturb Muyu and them to solve the mechanism."

The mechanism on the stone platform is very simple, anyway, the jade figurines have been hung completely, and there is no need to worry that they will suddenly burst out and hurt people, just twist the balls corresponding to the four corners, and the stone wall in front of it will suddenly shrink inward into a distance of one person's width.

The fat man leaned over and scolded, "This special mother discriminates against us fat people again, leaving such a little seam, and when you squeeze it over, the fat lady will become a pot."

Several people burst out laughing.

Zhang Qixun patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, don't complain, some are good to go, just lose weight."

As soon as the black blind man picked up the fainting fellow, he heard the man snort, and opened his eyes in a daze, and before he could see who was in front of him, he was stunned again.

The black blind man withdrew the hand around his neck and smiled harmlessly, "The best way to get rid of trouble is to pinch off the source of trouble."

"Very philosophical." Zhang Qixun gave him a thumbs up.

Several people carried their equipment through the gaps in the stone wall, and the little brother took the lead in front, groping for something on the wall as he walked.

Suddenly, the footsteps stopped, and Zhang Qixun hurriedly reminded the few people behind him to stop the car.

"What did you find?" He asked the little brother.

"Mark." The little brother replied lightly.

There was the little brother's body in the way, and Zhang Qixun couldn't see it clearly, only felt that the little brother stabbed in one place with a dagger, and then there was a sound of stones falling to the ground.

Soon a small hole was made, and the little brother took the lead in getting in.

Zhang Qixun hurriedly followed, and also got in.

Wu Xiaoxie in the back was puzzled: "How can there be a thief hole here?"

"It's not a cave thief." Zhang Qixun turned around and explained, "This is the pipeline used to design the mechanism, if you continue to move forward, the mechanism that appears in front of you may still be the same as that laboratory, and this time we will take a shortcut."

After walking less than ten meters forward, the terrain suddenly turned sharply, the passage was almost vertical, and it was too narrow to turn around, so several people had to continue to climb down.

Crawled until his head was congested and he was about to faint, and suddenly there was a sound of water in front of him.

The little brother slammed away the blocked stones in front of him, and the sound of the water became louder.

The little brother went out to observe for a while, and then jumped out first, and several people were suffocated in this narrow passage, and hurriedly followed, stepping into the pool, and something fluttered at his feet and swam out of the water into the distance.

Several people were startled, and they all stared at the water vigilantly.

However, it soon turned out that it was just a small shellless soft-bodied insect that looked like a white blind shrimp, not a snake or anything like that, and it was not dangerous to run away at the slightest movement on the surface of the water.

Looking around, it was a wide waterway, with a gentle current, and the water was only knee-high.

Two paces upstream from them was a sluice, as thick as a rolling pin, and the half of the iron railing above the water, which had been soaked in water for many years, was rusted and covered with broken branches and leaves that had washed down from upstream, and it was pitch black behind the gate, and I didn't know where it went.

The fat man shook the iron rod vigorously, and found that he couldn't shake it, "Yo ho, it's quite strong."

"This place is deep and has a lot of flow, could it be the main channel to the bottom of the reservoir?" Wu Xiaoxie asked Chen Wenjin.

Chen Wenjin nodded, shining downstream with a miner's lamp, suddenly gasped, and stretched out his hand to point, "Look there, the statue with a human face and a bird's body."

A few people turned their heads to look and saw a gray-white statue standing quietly in the waterway downstream, exactly like the one they had seen when they entered the rainforest.

Before they could take a closer look, the little brother suddenly raised his feet and walked straight over there, and Zhang Qixun hurriedly followed.

Wading through the water all the way, the transparent insects at the bottom of the water were disturbed one after another and scattered and fled.

The fat man quickly grabbed one and leaned under the lamp to take a closer look, but as soon as his hand slipped, the little insect fell into the water again, and it disappeared at once.
