Zhou Shukang didn't think too much and "reported" the story between her and Xin Wu to Wang Li.
In this strange place, she only wanted one thing: how to get out of this strange place, with water and mud everywhere, and she didn't know where the real "solid" place was.
The key is that in these places, a string of bubbles will appear from below from time to time. Some of them are burning with endless flames right in the water:
It is said that "fire and water are incompatible", but here, clearly in the middle of the water, the undulating mass, but burning continuously, is a flaming red flame.
"Wang Li, don't rush to talk to me about Xin Wu. Tell me, did you see any strange people or things before you came out just now? Did you notice that the fire in the center of the pool was a little burning? Weird?!”
Beauty Zhou's words and deeds at this time exuded the brilliance of reason.
This made Wang Li feel ashamed secretly. With admiration in his heart, he restrained his miscellaneous thoughts and answered seriously:
"Just now, before I came out of the cave, I met two strange people: a man with his face buried in the soil and two scorpions on his temples that could switch defenses; and then I met a semi-bald man who was more than ten years older than him. The woman was dressed in bright red, with strange patterns of tattoos on her face and back of her hands. Her two claws were very strong, and it hurt when she held my wrist! Later, I was hit by a yellow stone. As soon as the glowing stone melted, it disappeared! I just ran away afterwards and didn’t know what was going on with these two weirdos. After I came out, I met you! That’s it.”
"Well, it's so weird here, let me try to play a tune and see if I can call them out. I'd like to see what kind of weird thing it is, playing tricks here!"
Zhou Shukang sat down cross-legged, put the konghou on his chest, and began to fiddle with it with his hands left and right.
"65321 32165 5656 1235 65 3212——"
Even Wang Li, who is not that strong in music lessons, can still hear it at once. This is the theme song of "The Swordsman":
"The mountains and rivers laugh, the tide surges on both sides of the bank, the ups and downs are gone, just ask about the present!..."
On a whim, Wang Li could not help but sing loudly along with this accompaniment. Even though it was not quite accurate, it was not inferior at all in terms of momentum.
Beauty Zhou's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, then relaxed, and a smile oozed from the corners of her eyes.
Something interesting happened:
The flame in the center of the pool began to rise and fall simultaneously with the rhythm and rhythm of the music, as if listening to the music! The volume of the flame is rising and expanding... getting higher and bigger!
It's like "alive"!
The flames continued to rise and turned into a string of tall torches. The heat emitted heated all the surrounding water. The boiled water and rising mist spread everywhere, and some became Large bubbles bulged violently, making "gurgling" and "cracking" sounds. The heat quickly spread to all directions. The heat wave caused the surrounding air to rise a lot, and all the distant scenery through the air changed. It was bent out of shape and shaking.
"Wow! That's awesome! Don't be afraid, I'll protect you!"
Wang Li, who was shocked by the strange sight, had already stopped singing and singing, and couldn't help but sigh! He stood up, opened his arms, and protected the beautiful lady Zhou.
"Who wants your protection? Go away and watch me."
Zhou Shukang put the konghou aside, pulled out the magical wooden hairpin from the root of the ponytail, and swung it in the air. A hemispherical insulated glass barrier immediately appeared in front of the ship, dropped from mid-air, and separated the two of them. The boat was stuck in the middle together.
"Now, you can enjoy the 'fireworks show'! Wow! Beautiful!"
Wang Li retracted his arms, but could not retract his open lips, praising Zhou Shukang's "magic skills".
"I'd like to see what's down here? Is it natural gas?"
Zhou Shukang's eyes were fixed on the roots of the flames that were hazy in the mist, wanting to see the ultimate answer.
"Look, I've heard people say, 'The end of science is boiling water.' Now, who boiled this pot of boiling water? I think, maybe it has something to do with the two strange people just now .”
Wang Li followed the question from the beautiful lady Zhou and answered.
As time goes by, the "boiling water" that the "pot" has inexplicably burned will be completely burned out by the flames that are getting bigger and bigger! The mud at the bottom of the pool was gradually exposed, and on the smooth surface, a continuous landform of undulations appeared, and the shapes that formed these "undulations" were extremely weird:
At first glance, I just thought it was a pile foundation of dead wood, but when I looked at it more carefully, the smooth angles and sizes made my head tingling more and more:
All human bones!
Compared to modern humans, these bones are a bit too big, at least three times larger than today's humans!
The roots of the flame were gradually revealed behind a thick white mist:
That is, the mouth of a huge human-shaped skull, between the wide-open teeth, is continuously "spitting" this seemingly inexhaustible flame!
"It's a person!"
Wang Li and Zhou Shukang issued such unanimous "judgments" almost at the same time.
"It's a giant!"
Wang Li gestured with his hand to measure the size and then added.
"A fire-breathing giant! How strange! This is just his mouth, so his body must be underneath. Let's dig some more!"
Beauty Zhou stood up, and soon after, the "fireproof cage" also expired and disappeared.
"Dig, what are you using to dig?"
Wang Li touched his head, looked around, and picked up a handful of grass, but they were all fragile. There was no one that was strong enough to dig into the earth!
This is a swamp, without a tree or a decent stone that can be used as a "hoe".
"Humph, what a big deal! Look!"
Beauty Zhou once again waved the wooden hairpin and swung it in the air. Two strong and hard engineer shovels and crowbars fell from the air and landed in front of the two of them.
"It's awesome! Come on, I'll take the lead!"
Wang Li thought that this time the bottom of the pool was burned dry and must have been "hardened", so he used the crowbar to get off the boat.
"slow---"
Zhou Shukang's word "slow" is still "slow".
Wang Li did not use the crowbar as a "pathfinder" to try to punch the "scorched surface" first, but directly struck.
Judging from his weight, there was no surprise at all, "Plop!"
As soon as he stepped off the boat, he sank straight in, and his body lost balance!
"Ah! You're killing me!"
Wang Li hurriedly inserted the crowbar that was originally meant to be used to "lead the battle" deep into the side...
