Volume 2: Snow Ridge Please Ling-Haidong Emperor's Mausoleum Chapter 294: Jiaolong Floats in the Water
Those eyes are made of unknown materials, and they only glow golden when the flashlight shines, and once the light source leaves, they will immediately extinguish their brilliance and return to pitch black, as if they were living creatures to respond to everyone.
Only then did he realize that they had triggered the mechanism of the Cao Canal by mistake just now, which allowed the well to empty the spring water, revealing the true state of the bronze tree.
In other words, as long as the arch opening and closing at the front and back changes, the well pool will be flooded by the ground spring in an instant, and it will be flooded again!
"Song Qianjin, if there are only two arch caves below and nothing else, then is this deflated calf hidden in the water?"
Song Siyuan obviously disagreed with his words, looked at him and shook his head:
"No, water is the enemy of the corpse, once the corpse enters the water, it will rot and insects in half a month, even if it uses the best embalming technology, it will not be preserved for half a year, only if the corpse is stored away from the water source, it is possible to completely preserve it."
"When I was outside, I once saw well-preserved mummies, and the corpses could be kept well, and the secret medicine was only part of the factors, the biggest reason was the dry sandy environment in Egypt, which could directly turn the corpse into a dried corpse, and it would remain like this for thousands of years!"
"I guess there must be a completely dry place in this well pond where Ayin Zun can store the corpse~"
Yue Guanchao listened to her words and stopped everyone, took Song Siyuan and Ge Da to stand on the bottom trestle, and turned on the flashlight brightest to look at the bottom of the well pool.
The bottom of the well pond is the ladder column space, and the position of the flood discharge arch is two or three meters away from the bottom, which also means that the underground spring water below the arch hole has no possibility of leaking out at all, in this case, the entire bottom of the well is equivalent to a pond with a width of hundreds of square meters!
In the middle of this circular pond, most of the well pond is occupied by bronze roots, like a horse-drawn carriage in the flower bed planted with a giant welcome pine, the messy real bronze roots such as dragons and snakes meandering and swimming, as if the unkempt group of snakes deeply penetrated into the waterhole, but all the bronze roots that hide their heads and tails in the water and raise their whiskers are mostly with the head of the snake!
Looking at the overall situation, it seems that there are dozens of dragons lurking in the waterhole, waiting for everyone to fall into the waterhole, eat gluttony, and have a good meal.
Yue Guanchao looked at the dragon heads leaking out of the water, most of these dragons were the same color as the roots, the bronze casting was green and mottled, but the brown hair dragon horns and beards were all glazed products, shining with a glass halo under the light of the flashlight, and there was a hint of gorgeous atmosphere in the gloom, which was particularly strange.
"I'll go into the water and see, maybe there's something in the water!"
Yue Guanchao took off his cotton clothes and jumped into the pond wearing only a sweatshirt.
As soon as he entered the water, the biting cold air soaked his body, and he drilled straight into the cracks of his bones, and he endured the cold and gradually adapted to the temperature of the water, and looked at the bottom of the water.
The bronze roots in the water were even more complicated, almost to the point of having no footholds, and he could only walk between the roots of the trees, so that he could observe the situation everywhere, there was no light source here, Ge Da and Song Siyuan shone the flashlight on the surface of the water, casting bright spots of light in the dark pool, guiding Yue Guanchao to observe the surrounding situation.
He roughly touched the bottom of the waterhole and drilled out of the water with a bang: "Puff~ This bottom is similar to what we thought, there is no mechanism, except for the roots of the dragon tree are active, and the well wall and the paulownia tree are all dead." ”
Song Siyuan didn't expect that this was completely different from his own guess, carefully pondered Yue Guanchao's words, and looked at him: "You come up first, let's talk about it, if there is nothing under the pool, it must mean that the organ is somewhere else." ”
After speaking, Ge Da stretched out his wrist and dragged him out of the water, and when Yue Guanchao got dressed, Song Siyuan looked at him:
"You just said that these dragon heads will be active?"
Yue Guanchao swept a handful of water on his face, and his eyes were not deceiving: "Yes, most of the copper roots without Jiaolong's head are dead, and under these movable Jiaolong's heads is a chain with a thick bowl, I just don't know what material this is made of, it can float on the water, and it looks like a dragon playing in the water~"
Song Siyuan listened to Yue Guanchao's words, and looked at the two of them with a light in her eyes: "At first, I wasn't quite sure, listen to the meaning of your words, there must be something wrong with this Jiao Faucet, I'll go down and take a look myself." ”
Yue Guanchao's exploration completely aroused the curiosity of this Song Qianjin, she went down to the trestle closest to Jiaotou, and played with the faucet back and forth with her hands, and sure enough, it was the same as Yue Guanchao said, floating on the water like a boat, and she could move it at will.
Looking closer at the Jiao Faucet, Song Siyuan quickly discovered that there was something strange about it, these heads obviously had a strange fragrance!
"This thing, it looks like oil!"
"Oil?"
Yue Guanchao followed Song Siyuan's gaze and looked at the dragon head, the glass was indeed shining, but he couldn't tell that it was wax at all.
"If you look near the dragon's mouth, you can see the slightly melted oil and water from the inside, it should be that the oil has been soaked in the water for a long time and has melted a little."
She picked up the dagger and stretched it out near the dragon's mouth, picked at the oil flower by the dragon's mouth a few times, took it to the nose and smelled it, sure enough, there was an oily smell, once the oil flower on the dagger left the water, it quickly formed a layer of oil film.
