Chapter 187, Dragon Ball Island (4)

"Alright," Aoshi said, "now let's analyze the secrets of the Hidden Dragon Spring, and assume that there is a Hidden Dragon Spring on this island that can produce dragon balls, why can't we find it?" What are your thoughts? ”

"Could it be that it was hidden in a concealment array like this island?" Duan Wutian asked.

"No!" Xiang An said, "It took me more than a month to walk around this small island, and I'm sure there is no such possibility. ”

"Maybe your formation cultivation is too poor to find out?" Duan Wutian asked unconvinced.

"No, Seventh Brother," Shen Jiayun said, "I have also explored every inch of the ground on this island in the past six months, and there should be no hidden magic circle." Besides, who arranged it, if any? Those barbarians obviously don't know how to form Dao techniques, could they be those Heavenly Dragon Dynasty guardian officials? ”

"It's possible," Xiang An said, "The Warden of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty took the Dragon Ball for himself, and then managed to hide the spring and report to the Imperial Court that he couldn't find the Dragon Ball. However, he would definitely not use the Formation Dao Technique to hide the spring, which would not stand up to scrutiny at all. ”

"Not bad!" Shen Jiayun said, "There is a great possibility that the guards will steal by themselves, just look at what Xiang An, the prison officer, has done." I think it's possible that the warden buried the spring, or maybe the spring was in this crater, and he took the dragon balls and built these buildings on the spring, and then people couldn't find the spring. ”

"Didn't that destroy the Hidden Dragon Spring," Duan Wutian said, "It's unlikely, right?" ”

"It's not necessarily ruined," Xiang An turned a deaf ear to Shen Jiayun's comments on himself, and said, "It should be covered up, and it doesn't necessarily need to be filled." It is said that one dragon ball is produced every once in a while, and after taking the dragon ball, he covered up the spring and hid it, and then told the court that there was no dragon spring on the island that could produce dragon balls. Isn't it reasonable for him to dig up the spring and steal the newly produced dragon balls after dozens or hundreds of years? That's what I say. ”

"Possibly!" "But I think this guard may not be hiding the imperial court, but deceiving his subordinates. ”

The other three tasted it carefully, and they all felt that Qingshi's analysis was more reasonable.

"That's right," Xiang An said, "The imperial court is not so easy to deceive, this is mostly a means for the imperial court to deceive the world." Dragon Ball Arcana is naturally known to as few people as possible, and perhaps only the chief officer who guards the island knows this secret. It seems that the dossier I saw was also a mixture of truth and falsehood. ”

"Actually, I have another idea," said Aoishi, "but let's confirm the idea that the spring is buried under our feet." ”

"How can you confirm it?" Duan Wutian scratched his slippery head and asked.

"What else? Dig! Qingshi said with a smile, "But Brother Seven, don't mess around, you must dig according to my instructions, this magic circle is huge in scale and high in level, and the materials used to build it are treasures in themselves, even if we can't find the Dragon Ball, it won't be in vain to dismantle this magic circle." ”

"Good!" Duan Wutian's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands and said, "Dig now!" Where to start? ”

Qingshi and the other four people's martial arts cultivation is quite high, and it is naturally easy to excavate, and Qingshi took out a few puppets to be responsible for transporting earth and rock, and after a few hours, the entire crater was dug down into a large pit with a diameter of ten zhang and three zhang deep.

At this point, the pivotal mechanism of the entire circle was fully exposed, and six large circular metal balls half a human height were connected into a ring by a thigh-thick metal pipe, and some irregular metal components were attached to the ring. Dozens of thin metal pipes protrude from these spheres, leading to the surrounding areas and inserting into the earth and rock, presumably extending to the seashore around the island.

This kind of permanent magic circle is different from the array stick or array flag array plate that can be deployed at any time, and the materials it uses are naturally not as precious as the array stick array flag, but its scale is large and there are many materials, and it is worth digging out such a large pile of rare metals.

But Xiang An and the others were a little annoyed, because it was obvious that there was no spring in this underground at all.

"Hey!" Xiang An said to Qingshi, "There is obviously no spring down here, can you tell us about your other idea?" ”

"There's no hurry," Qingshi observed and walked around the metal balls, and said lightly, "I still have to confirm it." Brother Xiang, come and take apart this ball and see what its energy source is used for? There are no leylines here, so I'd like to see what the energy source can last for a thousand years? ”

"That's right!" Xiang An's eyes lit up, "Maybe it's Dragon Ball!" Get out of the way, get out of the way, I'll tear it down! ”

Xiang An is very energetic, he is also a fifth-level array mage, and he has its own merits in terms of formation cultivation and bluestone, so it is easy to dismantle it.

After a short time, the outer metal shell of the ball was opened, and after a while, the various metal components were dismantled one by one, revealing a fist-sized flat box at the core. Xiang An found a spot in the middle of the intricate array on the shell of the box, and poked it lightly, and the box popped open the lid, revealing the most core energy source.

Everyone stretched their necks together and leaned over to look, only to see that inside the box was a light green bead the size of an egg that emitted a faint green light, it was round but not rounded, but a regular icosahedron, obviously it was also a kind of crystal similar to the spirit stone, composed of energy and minerals, but it was different from the diamond-shaped hexahedral or octahedral structure of the spirit stone, and it was much larger.

"Dragon Ball!" Xiang An's eyes flashed with golden light and said softly, "It's really a dragon ball!" ”

"Yes," Qingshi said, "It's indeed a dragon ball, but this one's energy is at least ninety or five percent of the energy consumed, and the unused dragon ball should be dark green." ”

"It doesn't matter how much energy you have left, it means that there are indeed Dragon Balls on the island." Duan Wutian laughed.

"In this way, the Warden of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty really found the Dragon Ball back then," Shen Jiayun said, "As Brother Qingshi said, he deliberately confused his subordinates and said that he didn't find it." Most of the secrets were known only to the generations of wardens themselves, and the rest of the personnel were concealed. ”

"But," Xiang An pondered, "I'm sure that Lao Huang didn't know the secret of Dragon Ball, maybe the first generation of wardens not only deceived his subordinates, but also hid the truth from the royal family." ”

"We don't know exactly what the truth is," Aoshi said, "maybe that's the case, or maybe something happened later and the truth was buried." ”

"What the fuck the truth!" Duan Wutian shouted, "Let's hurry up and find the Dragon Ball." ”

Everyone naturally agrees, but there is still confusion about how to find it. Xiang Duan Shen and the three of them all looked at Qingshi.

Qingshi said slowly: "So far, we have first determined that there must be dragon balls on the island, but we are also basically sure that there is no hidden dragon spring on the island at all. Then I think there should be two possibilities, and maybe these two possibilities are related...... By the way, Brother Xiang, what is the birthday of the Sea Dragon King? ”

"Oh, this is a festival for the natives of this sea," Xiang An said, "and it doesn't seem to be the most important festival, but it will be in three days." ”

"Three days later is July 30, the last day of July." Qingshi pondered and said, "Is there anything special about this day?" ”

"There is no moon!" Shen Jiayun said.

"Hmm!" Qingshi's eyes lit up, "You said, for such a big thing as recovering Dragon Ball Island, why didn't Annaba come as soon as possible, instead of three days later?" ”

"You're saying that the appearance of the Hidden Dragon Spring has something to do with time?" Xiang An said, "Maybe it will only appear on the Sea Dragon King's birthday?" ”

"It's possible," Shen Jiayun became excited, and then frowned and said, "But even so, he doesn't necessarily have to come in three days, wouldn't it be good to come early to take Dragon Ball Island in his hands?" ”

"He's probably preparing to pick up a special item for the Dragon Balls, didn't Wall say that?" Xiang An's eyes lit up and said, "I estimate that it is not so simple to get the dragon ball, you must prepare some special tools and items, and you may also have to sacrifice to the dragon king, which requires a lot of beef and mutton." ”

"Well, that makes sense!" Qingshi nodded and said, "They haven't taken the Dragon Ball for thousands of years, and this time the Dragon Ball Island suddenly appeared, they definitely didn't prepare the items in advance, or the items and sacrifices they needed must be from the day, or Annaba must prepare them themselves." ”

"Possibly!" Shen Jiayun said, "Since he needs special items to take the Dragon Ball, he is not afraid that others will be able to take it before him." But what can we do, even if we find it, we can't take it out? ”

"Let's find the Hidden Dragon Spring first!" Duan Wutian said, "I don't believe that I have to get any special items or sacrificial rituals. These indigenous barbarians are very superstitious, and their so-called special items may be just flowers and plants that are of little use. ”

"Brother Duan has a point!" Xiang An said, "They really attach great importance to sacrifices, maybe the ceremony requires them to be three days later." Let's not care about so much, let's find a way to find the Hidden Dragon Spring first. ”

"If the Hidden Dragon Spring doesn't appear until the Sea Dragon King's birthday," Shen Jiayun said a little deflated, "Then how can we find it?" ”

"Didn't Brother Qingshi say that there are two possibilities?" Xiang An said, "What about the other one?" Let's talk about it. ”

"The other one is actually very simple," said Aoshi, "since we can't find the Hidden Dragon Spring on the island, then it's not on the island, it's in the sea." ”

Yes! The other three opened their mouths together.

"How can a spring be in the sea?" Duan Wutian said.

"Why can't it be?" Qingshi said lightly.

After a while, Xiang An slapped his thigh and shouted, "That's right! Why is it impossible to be in the sea? It's entirely possible! Bluestone, you're such a genius! ”

"What else do you need to say?" Duan Wutian came back to his senses and smiled, "Brother Qingshi, that is the first genius of the Heavenly Dragon Academy in hundreds of years!" Today's students are still talking about his legend! Qingshi said quickly, how can we find it? ”

"July 30, the Sea Dragon King's birthday, there is no moon...... "Aoishi muttered, "what is the difference on this day...... Tide! That's right, the tides! "Bluestone's eyes are as bright as stars.
