Volume II, Chapter 103 Mountains in the Water
The Win River stretches for 800 miles, and the heavy mountains on the river divide the whole world into north and south.
The place where Lin Zhan and Hu Yu fell at this time was a forest stream, surrounded by dense jungles, and occasionally a few wolf howls and tiger roars could be heard.
Listening to Hu Yu's complaints, Lin Zhan didn't answer, but asked cautiously, "You just said, you smelled Gong Yuwei's breath?" ”
Hu Yu glared at him angrily: "It's gone again at this time!" It's all your fault! If I had chased that breath just now, I would have found it a long time ago! ”
Although Hu Yu asked about Gong Yuwei's breath just now, that breath traveled extremely fast, and it was long gone at this time.
And Lin Zhan's true qi in his body was weak at this time, and if he wanted to pursue the sword, he might be powerless.
Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, Lin Zhan urged: "It's better to leave here first, in case the wolves are infested, I can't protect you." ”
Hu Yu jumped on his shoulder and asked, "It's like a maze around here, how are we going to get out?" ”
Lin Zhan looked around and said, "It seems that we can only wait for the new sun to rise, and then discern the direction, let's go find something to eat to fill our stomachs first." ”
Half an hour later.
Hu Yu suddenly tightened his front paws, shook Lin Zhan's shoulder vigorously and said, "Wait, wait, Gong Yuwei's breath has appeared again......"
Lin Zhan hurriedly stopped and asked, "Where?!" ”
Hu Yu jumped off his shoulder, and naturally said to himself: "It's strange, why does her breath come and go...... And...... It's like ...... underground."
"Underground ......"
Lin Zhan's heart tightened inexplicably, and he hurriedly pinched his ring finger and closed his eyes, but he only saw that it was pitch black in front of him, and there was a rapid gasp in his ears.
On the day of his marriage to Gong Yuwei, Qing Xuan, the head of the True Martial Sword Sect, tied the hair for the two of them and gave them a trick of Queqiao Immortal.
Just close your eyes and pinch your ring finger to see where the other person is.
When he was in Yunzhou, even if he heard that Gong Yuwei was sent to the Yanshan faction that was in crisis, Lin Zhan couldn't bear it.
But now, Hu Yu found that Gong Yuwei's breath seemed to be underground, and it came and went, so Lin Zhan hurriedly used the Queqiao Immortal.
Connected one after the other, Gong Yuwei should have encountered danger.
You can't dig three feet into the ground, can you?!
Lin Zhan only felt that his body trembled slightly, and hurriedly urged: "Let's look separately, there should be some entrance near here!" ”
One person, one cat, acting separately.
Lin Zhan pulled out the Wind Listening Knife just in case, while Hu Yu followed the breath that came and went to the past.
"Found it!"
Until noon, Lin Zhan hurriedly rushed over after hearing Hu Yu's shout.
Looking at the huge green lake in front of him, he glanced around and didn't find a similar entrance around.
"What you said you found, what did you find?"
"Fish! There are fish in this lake! Let's fill our stomachs first! ”
Lin Zhan thought that Hu Yu had found the entrance, but he didn't expect it to be talking about fish, and he didn't complain about Hu Yu in his mood, so he just left a sentence and prepared to continue looking for it.
As a result, just as he turned around, the light through the cracks in the trees flashed on the surface of the lake, making his gaze stay for a moment.
It was this moment that made him realize that something was wrong.
"Look there......"
Lin Zhan pointed to the part of the lake against the mountain, and asked towards Hu Yu.
Hu Yu was holding a messy fish in his mouth at this time, how could he have the time to answer him, he could only take a general look and nodded.
The location that Lin Zhan pointed to was the reflection of the small hill next to it on the surface of the lake.
There was nothing peculiar about it, but there was a palm-sized silver compass in the middle of the 'hill' under the lake.
It stands to reason that there will be no deviation between the positive and negative on the surface of the lake.
After all, below the surface of the lake, it was only the reflection of the hill, but the silver compass on the reflection was not seen on the hill at all.
"It's hard to ......"
Lin Zhan hesitated for a moment, and then jumped into the green lake in front of him.
Hu Yu, who had just eaten half of the fish, was immediately startled, and the other half of the fish fell from his mouth, and scolded heartbreakingly: "You don't want to die?!" Let me finish it! ”
I don't know if I'm worried, but I scolded and jumped into the lake.
Lin Zhan, who dived into the lake, swam desperately towards the position of the silver compass.
It wasn't until he came back to him that his suspicions were confirmed.
What I saw on the shore just now was not the reflection of the mountain at all.
As you can see with your own eyes now, it is a different hill that is built opposite to the hill above the lake.
So there is a silver compass on the top of the hill underground, and there is no possibility at all on the top of the mountain.
If his guess was correct, the silver compass was supposed to be the mechanism for the underground entrance.
At this time, Hu Yu followed, looked at the mountains in the water in front of him, and then looked at the silver compass, and couldn't help but be surprised: "I chased the breath over, but I didn't expect this entrance to be here?!" ”
Lin Zhan waved his hand, signaling it to dodge to prevent it from being accidentally injured by the trap.
After turning the silver compass three times, the entire lake was turbulent for a long time under a heavy muffled sound.
The left side of the mountain in the water in front of me instantly faded away from the dirt, and the stone door slowly opened.
Lin Zhan and Hu Yu glanced at each other, and although they didn't see any mechanism, they still cautiously swam towards the stone gate.
The strange thing is that after entering the stone gate, I found that the lake water seemed to be cut off by the stone gate, except for the lake water adhered to Lin Zhan and Hu Yu's bodies, not a drop of it flowed in from the outside.
Behind the stone gate is a staircase that goes downward, bottomless.
It wasn't until the light gradually brightened that Lin Zhan noticed that among the stone lamps on the walls on both sides, there were small insects with green light on their buttocks.
It seems that these little insects have been sleeping in the stone lamp until the stone door opens, and the stone door will wake up the moment it opens.
Lin Zhan walked down the steps with great vigilance, and didn't forget to ask, "Didn't I remember that you said that you were afraid of water?" How can you not be afraid, but still be able to speak in the water? ”
Hu Yu turned his head to look around, as if he was deliberately dodging: "I'm afraid!" How not to be afraid! It is...... Possible...... Maybe...... I'm scared, I'm afraid...... You're not afraid, are you? Well, yes, I should have been worried about your safety, and I overcame my fear in a hurry! Right! It must be so! Master Zu once said that the best way to overcome fear is to face it! ”
Lin Zhan stared at the downward direction, and said angrily: "You must have something to hide from me, and when you return to Yunzhou, you can't get through this matter without a true martial arts." ”
"I ...... What am I hiding from you?! ”
Hu Yu deliberately raised his voice, hiding his heart and said: "I think you are taking advantage of the fire to rob, just make up a reason to get the true martial arts!" ”
The more Lin Zhan walked down, the brighter and darker it became, and after it was completely pitch black, he suddenly felt like he was going up.
