145 Herring Statue I
Jin Wuzhi shrank to normal size, and his gaze swept over the monster's corpse.
Suddenly, he bent down and picked up a blue bead the size of a peanut from the fragments of flesh. This thing has a cold aura in the hand, and if ordinary people get it, they are likely to get frostbite directly.
"This thing seems to have fallen out of this guy's head, could it be a demon core or something?"
He muttered. Although he didn't know what it was, the strange power contained in it made him understand that this thing could be useful. So I was ready to put it away.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that the blue orb was rapidly becoming smaller with the naked eye, and in a moment, it completely disappeared into his hand, and a cold breath penetrated from his hand and merged into the back of his hand.
He took a backhand look, and saw that the blank space on the blue blue water bead tattoo on the back of his hand was painted with a layer of blue, as if it was being filled with something.
"This tattoo seems to be absorbing the energy of a monster, and I don't know what the use of filling it up?"
He thought for a moment, scanned the hall again, found nothing of value, and walked into the opposite hole.
Here is another long passage, and as soon as I entered, I saw a half-human-high stone monument lying in the passage. The stele is engraved with three large characters.
"Phantom Demon Palace! Is that the hall behind you? Is the Phantom Demon the name of the monster?"
Jin Wuzhi read it thoughtfully. This stele was obviously supposed to be placed at the entrance to the main hall, but it was taken here for some reason, maybe it was the monster who did it, or it could be someone else.
Thinking of this, he kicked out at random, and the stone tablet shot out as if it had been hit by a train, and slammed into the entrance of the passage when he came.
......
It was a long passage again, and when it reached the end, there was another stone hall in front of it, and there was also a round platform in the stone hall.
On the round platform stood a burly humanoid fish monster, looking at this side with a hideous face.
Jin Wuzhi froze slightly, hurriedly guarded, and observed intently only to find that this fish monster was just a statue, made of blue-black stone, and the carving was lifelike, but there was no breath of any living creature in his perception.
The fish monster has a humanoid body, as well as limbs, but the palm of the hand is a pair of sharp claws, webbed between the fingers, and a huge fish head is supported above the neck, which looks very ferocious and hideous. A big mouth full of sharp teeth is slightly open, but the mouth shape is very special and square.
The fish monster is covered with fish scale-like armor.
Jin Wuzhi saw that the armor was very familiar, and when he looked closely, it was clearly exactly the same as the Ruyi silver scale armor he was wearing. He understood a little in his heart, the scale armor he got seemed to be the equipment of this Bishui Palace, and the forces of the Hebo Temple that he had eliminated before were still inextricably linked with this Bishui Palace.
The fish monster's hands, one holding a one-man tall harpoon, the other on his chest, held a stone box.
Jin Wuzhi's heart moved, the treasure here seemed to be in the stone box, I don't know if it was still that kind of jade!
Suddenly, there was a slight clicking sound next to him, the sound was very weak, but it couldn't hide from his ears.
He immediately retreated into the passage in a flash, and at the same time, with a finger of his hand, a flash of spiritual light shot towards the fish monster, and the target was the stone box in the fish monster's hand.
His idea was very simple, the sound must have come from something that guarded the treasure, and if he attacked the treasure, it was likely that the possible enemy would rescue the treasure first, so that he could not attack him.
At that moment, his eyes glanced and saw that what made a clicking sound was a stone tablet on the side outside the entrance of the passage, the stone tablet was one meter high, and there were several big characters written on it, Qingyu Palace.
"It's a mechanism!"
He felt a little sorry in his heart, the mechanism was a dead thing, and his means of attacking the treasure were in vain, and if the treasure was damaged, it would be his own loss. This regret is also fleeting, for their own safety, treasures and the like are just things outside the body, as long as you live, you can still get them.
At the moment when he made these movements, the fish monster statue also moved at the same time, and the arm holding the stone box suddenly lifted up, and actually stuffed the stone box into his mouth, and the action was very fast.
However, it was still a step too late, and a spiritual light struck the stone box first, knocking it directly into the air.
Click!
Without the stone box, the fish monster directly stuffed its claws into its mouth, and its upper and lower jaws snapped together, shattering the claws, and then stopped moving.
"I'm going to wipe it! I'm more ruthless than me! Why are you putting treasures here? It's better not to put it at all!"
Jin Wuzhi was startled and scolded. He thought that he would be ruthless enough to destroy the treasure in order to get rid of the unwarranted danger, but he didn't expect that the mechanism here was even more ruthless, and someone would destroy the treasure immediately as soon as someone came, so that the visitor would find nothing.
"But, fortunately, I hit it right!" he said, glad as he looked at the stone box that had fallen to the ground and was still intact.
First looked at the fish monster statue, still maintaining the posture of biting his hand and remained motionless, so he volleyed two palm prints in the air to break the fish monster statue into pieces.
After observing it again, he didn't sense anything abnormal, so he cautiously walked into the main hall.
Directly in front of the stone box, bent down to pick up the box, opened it, and there was a milky white jade inside, the same material as the previous one, but twice as large.
Jin Wuzhi smiled slightly, tucked the jade around his waist and put it away, then came to the round platform, grabbed a piece of fragment the size of a human head and looked at it. The stone from which the fish monster statue was made was very hard, and at the fracture there were tiny holes with green water stains oozing from them, and his brow was slightly furrowed, and these holes looked like capillaries.
He looked closely and found no valuable clues, then turned and headed for the exit passage on the opposite side.
......
In another hall, Jin Yanling stood cautiously in the passageway, looked at it with her head, and saw the fish monster statue on the round platform in the hall.
She muttered to herself, "This is the herring guard, Mother said that the key to breaking is in the box in its hand." ”
After finishing speaking, Jin Yanling took out a black iron spine from his body, the size of a knuckle, shaped like a bullet. With a flick of her hand, the iron cone flew out silently, knocking the stone box in the fish monster's hand to the ground in an instant.
She clapped her hands and grinned as she walked into the main hall and headed straight for the stone box.
At this time, there was a slight snort in the hall, and the arm of the fish monster statue quickly raised and stuffed it into its mouth, and with a snort, it bit a sharp claw to pieces.
"Hehehehe, what a stupid guy! The spirit stone is here, and I have to bite my claws to pieces! It's a pity that my mother doesn't have the spirit control bead, otherwise a spirit realm puppet can be much more useful than a spirit stone." ”
Jin Yanling grinned and lifted the milky white jade that had just been turned out of the stone box, shook it at the fish monster statue, and then jumped towards the exit.
