Chapter Ninety-Six: The Ancient Corpse in the Water
Then the two continued to explore the huge space at the bottom of the lake, and swam down for a distance of about twenty zhang, but there was a strange aquatic plant here, like kelp, but it could emit a slight light, illuminating the underground underwater world brightly, Lin Feng had the ability to identify the properties of things, picked off this aquatic weed, rubbed it and tasted it a little, and then said:
"This aquatic weed is supposed to be a new mutant species that appeared after being affected by the feces, urine, and body fluids of this ancient whale eel, so it has the ability to emit light. β
Immediately after, Lin Fengjin noticed that several thick bronze chains began to gather towards this side, and the two of them naturally tiptoed and held their breath, slowly approaching, and finally, they saw a huge shadow appear above their heads, at least more than ten thick bronze chains were connected to its body, and even brutally penetrated its flesh and tied it up fiercely!
The other end of these bronze chains was forcibly attached to the stone wall, and every time the huge shadow shook, the bronze chains seemed to shine with a series of lightning and lightning, causing them to convulse and twist in pain.
The two continued to float up for a while, and then they saw the appearance of the huge ancient whale eel clearly, coiled like an eel, pointed beak with yellow spots, double fins like wings, vicious and hideous, and Lin Fengjin found that this guy was very interesting to eat, although it was pointed, but after opening its big mouth, the mouth was like a snake, and it could open to a very amazing angle when swallowing.
After each swallow, the eel has two rows of plate-like whiskers on its mouth, like a sieve, and many folds in its throat like the bellows of an accordion, which can be expanded and contracted, so that it swallows the water and the large number of mayfly carcasses together when it sucks, and then closes its mouth so that the water drains from the closed whisker teeth. The rest is all mayfly corpses, which can be easily and quickly swallowed.
The Heavenly Wolf looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly said to Lin Feng:
"Master, do you see that this whale eel is not only pierced by these seven demon chains through the pipa bone and keel, but also has a black mass above its head?
Lin Feng looked at it for a while and said:
"It seems like yes. β
Sky Wolf Road:
"This is a very vicious spell, the Yin and Yang Spell, this spell is engraved on the top of the head of this whale eel, once it happens, this guy will die of brain boiling. No matter how strong its vitality is, it is useless. In addition, I always feel that the position of these chains seems to be exquisite, and there is a mysterious and strange power hidden in them, but I can't see the truth anymore. β
Hearing what the wolf said, Lin Fengjin pondered for a while, but his brows became tighter and tighter, and he thought carefully for a while and said:
"I also have a question that I haven't been able to figure out, according to the style of Wei Ming Emperor Qian Xu, the other end is interlocking. Tightly connected, as if the precision of the gear. Therefore, it should not be possible to allow us to enter the internal set of mechanisms in such a laissez-faire. Because when normal people see such a big battle, most of them will be suspicious. Instead, I was too scared to pull the switch. β
"If you think about it, it's actually a coincidence that we entered this interior, and we wouldn't be able to enter under normal circumstances. It was this ancient whale eel that suddenly became powerful and shook the rock formations of Yanzhi Mountain violently, which shook open the fist-sized hole where it was feeding. And then sucked us in. β
"The point of this matter is: after we got into the water, we didn't do anything, just silently watched from the sidelines, I myself am also a person who is good at layout, therefore, this kind of difficulty, this is not something that can be arranged step by step and step by step hundreds of years ago! Or it can be said that if the dead ghost Wei Ming Emperor Qian Xu can really do such a terrifying arrangement, then the mechanism he arranged hundreds of years ago will not need to be launched by others without fake hands. β
The Celestial Wolf groaned:
"You're right, this eel has been held here for at least a few hundred years, why didn't it do it sooner or later, but after we got into the water, it crashed the rock wall? And we didn't do anything?"
Lin Feng said respectfully:
"At present, I think there are two possibilities, the first is that our human smell tempted the eel and made it excited and crazy, but this point actually does not stand up to inference, because this pond has definitely not been in the water for hundreds of years, and every year when picking red and blue flowers, people come here to bathe. β
"The second possibility is that there is a peculiar smell on my body, and the whale eel is crazy, this assumption seems reasonable, but careful analysis does not stand up to scrutiny, because we are actually closer to this whale eel now, there is no reason why when I am far away from it, this guy smells my breath and goes crazy, and when I am close to it, this guy ignores me?"
The wolf raised his head and looked at the huge whale eel above, although this guy was tied up by the five flowers, he raised his head intently, aimed at the corpse of the mayfly on the water above and sucked it violently, it was indeed completely unaware of Lin Fengjin and the wolf.
"Let's keep searching, this underwater area doesn't look infinite, we've already searched at least a little half, keep searching, maybe we can find some clues. Lin Fengjin took the lead.
After Lin Fengjin swam out for twenty or thirty zhang, Shui E suddenly said be careful, Lin Fengjin looked up, and it turned out that the huge whale eel on it actually had a bulging belly and contracted a few times, and then sprayed out a pale yellow turbid liquid from the back of the body, and then a clump of rice fields rippled in the water and seemed to sink very reluctantly
In the face of such a ruthless bombardment, Lin Fengjin was stunned all of a sudden, and then stabbed a fierce man and swam to the side as if he wanted to die, this whale eel is really too strong, and such a perverted biochemical attack is also done, it is really outrageous!
After narrowly avoiding the whale eel's fecal bombardment, Lin Fengjin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the direction he was in, and he was already about to swim to the bottom of the Tianchi, just when he wanted to turn back, he suddenly saw a place more than ten feet underwater. A hazy white light appeared.
Lin Fengjin was also a little surprised that there would be such a sign under this dark water, and naturally he wanted to swim over to find out, and as the distance slowly approached, he could see that the white light was actually a bead, and this bead was actually held in a person's hand!
Such a discovery undoubtedly surprised Lin Fengjin, no one could have imagined that in this seemingly beautiful Tianchi, there was such a deep underneath, not only a poor monster that had been locked for thousands of years, but also such a person silently hiding at the bottom.
Swim a little closer. Lin Fengjin could almost tell that this person was already a dead man, and it seemed that he had been dead for an unknown number of years.
He seemed to be in a stone cave, which was supposed to be a secret cave, because the entrance of the cave had obvious hidden mechanisms, and it was only half opened, and it could be seen from the closed half of the cave door, which was very carefully retouched, and it can be said that it is not too much to describe it as "ingenious". If it weren't for the fact that half of it was not covered up, Lin Fengjin would not have thought that this was actually the exit of the secret cave.
Lin Feng swam over, and Shui E said very professionally:
"The light in this man's hand is a bead of water, and it is of the highest kind. β
Lin Feng was stunned and said:
"This repels water droplets. But why is it that it just shines and doesn't have the effect of avoiding water?"
Shui'e said:
"The authentic water-repellent bead must be injected into it to be supernatural in order to work, you don't believe it to take it and try it. The reason why I say that this water-repellent bead is the best is because it only needs to be infused with very little divine power. It can last for a long time, and even after you are injected with divine power, ordinary people can also use it for a period of time. β
Lin Feng said in his heart, isn't this the principle of rechargeable batteries in later generations? took the water-repellent bead from the man's hand, and sure enough, as Shui E said, as soon as he injected true power into it, it immediately stretched out a large range on the surface of his body, as if a bubble wrapped himself.
At this time, I looked at this person closely, and found that this person was born with a dignified appearance, and the clothes on his body looked extraordinary, with a shiny gloss, but the style looked very old-fashioned, but Lin Feng remembered that it should be the most popular style during the David Dynasty hundreds of years ago.
The person's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were covered with bright blood, and large bruises appeared under his skin, and his expression was distorted and painful, apparently poisoned to death. And this poison is very vicious and stubborn, this person has been soaked in water for hundreds of years without decay, obviously related to the poison taken before his death.
Lin Fengjin can also be regarded as an expert in poison, looking at this person's death, combined with his expression at this time, he has roughly deduced that this person should have died of the rumored poison of the mercury god. Looking at his expression, he must have been in great pain before he died, and he was very unwilling.
At this time, Lin Fengjin swam into this cave, and found that the stone wall next to him was actually engraved with a string of handwriting, and the font was very messy and scribbled, but between the lines was extremely resentful!
"Untrustworthy Dog Emperor, I curse you, curse your entire family for eighteen generations!
Next, Lin Fengjin checked the relics on this person's body again, and found that he was still carrying a box behind his back, although this box was made of wood, but the paint painted on it, as well as the inlaid pearls, all showed that this box was an extremely precious magic weapon, so even if it was soaked in this water for hundreds of years, there was still no sign of decay.
Lin Fengjin pulled this box into the space formed by the water beads, and was taken aback after a little inspection, it turned out that this box was actually the same as his own Sumeru mustard seed ring, it was a rare space magic weapon, not only had an amazing volume, but also had no weight because it was stored in another space!
There are two ancient seal characters on this box, called "Yunhua", Lin Feng checked it, the space in it is much larger than the Sumeru mustard seed ring, and the things contained in it are mostly food and water, but although the time in the space magic weapon passes extremely slowly, but after these hundreds of years, it is obvious that these food and water are also rotten and inedible, in addition, there are a lot of drawings. There are also some treasures of gold and silver.
It is worth mentioning that this Yunhua Ancient Box is incompatible with the Sumeru Mustard Seed Ring, specifically, when Lin Fengjin tried to put the Yunhua Ancient Box into the Sumeru Mustard Seed Ring, a fierce spark would shine on the Sumeru Mustard Seed Ring, and Lin Fengjin believed that once it was forcibly stuffed in, it would inevitably lead to the destruction or even explosion of the Sumeru Mustard Seed Ring.
In the same way, the reverse is also true, so Lin Fengjin is very regretful. If this Yunhua ancient box is carried around, it is really too wolf and eye-catching, so although the volume and space inside are large, there is no way to compare with the Sumeru mustard seed ring, and it can only be carried by the wolf.
Next, Lin Fengjin looked through the drawings in it, there was a diary in it, took it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that this person could be said to be famous in the history books. His name is Lei Fan, and he is the head of a generation of Lei family.
What is the Cheng dΓΉ of this Lei family Niu B, the three capitals of the David Dynasty back then, which is now Xiangdu. Xijing and Yedu were all built under the auspices of the Lei family, in addition to that. The Lei family also presided over the construction of the famous royal garden Ten Thousand Animals Garden, the Qingxin Garden for the concubine to escape the summer, and even built four imperial tombs successively!
Therefore. In the history books, the Lei family is called "Appearance Lei", which means that they have reached the ultimate in engineering supervision, and they are the model of the rest of the craftsmen, which can only be imitated and never surpassed. He even wrote a book on craftsmen, called "Building the French Style", which set a standard for craftsmen in the world and even in later generations!
This Lei Fan, who was the head of Lei's family at that time, was actually poisoned here.
Because as soon as he died at that time, the Lei family was leaderless, plus internal strife, it was divided from then on, and there were many secrets that the head of the family knew, building technology. Since then, the famous Lei family has since declined, and the history books only say that he disappeared mysteriously, but he didn't expect to die in this ghost place!
At this time, Lin Fengjin combined the things that Lei Fan had carved on the stone wall before his death, as well as the items left in this cave, and then discovered the truth in this heavenly pool! I couldn't help but sweat a handful of myself! I underestimated Emperor Wei Ming's Qian Xu, if it weren't for the mistake, I could really only be played with by him on the applause!
From a series of materials left by Lei Fan, this secret, which has been sealed in the dust for hundreds of years and is even drowned underwater, has been slowly unraveled
At the beginning of the story, Emperor Wei Ming Qian Xu ordered the Lei family to supervise the construction of a royal project, at that time the reputation of the Lei family has reached its peak for nearly a hundred years, there is a saying called fire cooking oil, flowers, outsiders look infinite, in fact, it has shown signs of decay.
As we all know, if you want to make a fortune, it is the best way out to get a big project from the government, because even if you make a lot of money, it is the state that suffers, not a private person, as long as you do everything well, then the top and bottom are happy, and as for the quality of the project, you can deal with it.
And more importantly, if you supervise the royal project, although the difficulty coefficient is high and the inspection is strict, you will have a unique advantage in procurement, and you can often use the cost price or even lower price to buy and sell.
As a result, this construction is several major projects in a row, and it seems that they are all built very secretly, and the use is even more incredible, Lei Fan has not been home for five years, fortunately, his hard work is not in vain, the Lei family also has a large amount of money into the project, and since then there has been the appearance of ZTE.
can be the head of the family who can be "like Lei", Lei Fan is also an extremely smart person, and he can't help but muttered a little in his heart, plus he is in a high position, it is inevitable that he will come into contact with some clues that others can't reach. And when supervising the construction of this place called the "Jiaxu" project, Lei Fan began to keep his hands behind, this kind of thing, rather believe it than not believe it.
The emperor is the most ruthless, and there are not a few craftsmen who repair the mausoleum to be martyred, so he knows this project well, so he prepared water beads in advance, and transferred Yunhua treasure chests from the family, which contained a large amount of food and water, and built a secret passage for himself to escape.
The result was really expected by him, after the completion of the project, Emperor Wei Ming Qian Xu turned his face and poisoned the hand, directly put down the broken dragon stone of the project, and then attracted the river next to it to fill the place, and the thousands of craftsmen trapped in it all became drowned ghosts.
Lei Fan was secretly glad at this time, thinking that he had a plan, so he entered the secret room he built, preparing to stay in it for a few years, and then go out after avoiding the limelight. But after a few days, he found that the magic is one foot high and one foot high! Emperor Wei Ming Qian Xu had long expected that he would have a move to survive, and every move was in Qian Xu's ears and eyes, so he had already sent someone to put the poison of the mercury god in his diet, and this poison was all over the world, and only the palace had an antidote!
Lei Fan himself is also a person who has cultivated supernatural powers, so he also lived for three days and three nights under the torture of the poison of the mercury god, in the pain, Lei Fan madly cursed Emperor Wei Ming Qian Xu, and also hated the entire David Dynasty, he took advantage of the time when he was clear, he wrote out the details of all the projects he supervised, as well as various loopholes and structures, so as not to use his own blood to harm people, and fulfilled his wishes, and also hoped that the person who found his body in the future could take revenge on David Chao on his behalf, and the curse on the wall was engraved by Lei Fan before he diedγ
At this time, Lin Fengjin couldn't wait to look at the diary written by Lei Fan, which contained a detailed structural diagram of the "Jiaxu" project here, as well as a detailed overview of the layout of various traps.
It turned out that the mechanism was connected to two lines, and after one of the lines was activated, it would push out a box placed in a secret place, and Lin Feng knew that inside this box was the artifact Qingmei Sniff, or the exact clues about Qingmei Sniff.
When the other line is activated, a plug will be removed.
This plug is installed on the top of a box, and the water filled in the box will naturally flow out along the hole, and at the bottom of the box, there is a thing called "phosphoglue" that is quite common at present, this thing is quite stable, almost will not deteriorate and fail, and the high concentration of phosphoglue has a property, that is, it will spontaneously combust after full contact with the air!
When the phosphor glue inside the box spontaneously combusts, it ignites a talisman hanging from above.
What is this talisman? It is the spell that invokes the Great Annihilation Yin and Yang Curse!
The Great Annihilation Yin Yang Mantra is engraved on the skull of the whale eel that is locked up in the water, and once it occurs, the whale eel will die.
Before, the wolf felt that the position of these demon chains on the surface of the whale eel's body seemed to be exquisite, and there was a mysterious and strange power hidden in it, and his feeling was not wrong at all, because the other end of these demon chains was not connected at random, but directly connected to the rock below the whale eel, but there was a large array that was extremely well hidden!
The mystical array of sacrifices,
The mysterious array created with the power of the David Dynasty!!
This whale eel was originally the best sacrifice in ancient times, and if you kill it and combine it with this large array, there is no doubt that it will have an extremely powerful sacrificial effect!!
It's a pity that even Lei Fan doesn't know the ultimate purpose of this sacrifice, and if Lin Fengjin pulls that organ down directly, there is no doubt that he will be played with by Qian Xu again
Seeing this, Lin Fengjin was drenched in cold sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't help but scold bitterly:
"What a treacherous bastard (Qian Xu). (To be continued......)
