The noise from Xiao Bai quickly woke up Meng Lian.
Seeing Xiao Bai standing by the pool in a daze, Meng Lian got out of the sleeping bag and walked to Xiao Bai's side with a frown.
When he looked at the sparkling star path in the clear pool water, his eyes widened.
"This is……"
"Hahahahahaha, I didn't expect it to be like this."
Meng Lian's laughter soon woke up the other three.
Everyone looked at this star road, and Shi Laoer couldn't help but be eager to try it.
"Boss, now that this road has been guided by the stars, why don't we take advantage of the moment to walk to the center of the pond to see what treasures are hidden here? It's worth the effort of the ancients."
Hearing the fat man's words, Xiao Bai frowned slightly.
At this moment, the starlight has indeed pointed out a star path, but whether this path is correct or not is actually a question worth exploring.
"Boss, don't hesitate. If it gets dawn later, this road will be gone."
Hearing Shi Laoer's urging, Meng Lian gritted his teeth and finally nodded.
"Okay, second brother, you go up first, be careful where you step, don't slip."
Hearing Meng Lian's agreement, Shi Laoer smiled.
"No problem. Look, boss. With my weight, my feet are very stable."
As he spoke, he put his feet into the pool and stepped on the light spot closest to the edge of the pool.
"Boss, this thing seems to have sunk a little. It seems to be a kind of mechanism."
Hearing Shi Laoer's shout, Meng Lian repeated again: "Pay attention, remember to be careful, and get back quickly if there is any problem."
But before he finished speaking, Shi Laoer had already stepped on the second stone pillar illuminated by stars.
soon.
The third root, the fourth root.
Although the distance between the stone pillars was not too close, Shi Laoer did step firmly with every step.
In just a few minutes, he stepped on more than thirty stone pillars and reached a distance of more than twenty meters from the shore.
"Wow~"
When he pulled his feet out of the viscous green water again and was about to step on the next stone pillar, he suddenly missed the step. His body lost its center of gravity and fell forward suddenly. Into the pool.
"Ah!~~I'm rough~~~"
Seeing Shi Laoer's sudden situation, Meng Lian reacted quickly, picked up a bundle of ropes next to the sleeping bag and threw it towards Shi Laoer, who was more than 20 meters away.
"Catch it!"
But after throwing it several times in a row, the end of the rope was still a certain distance away from Shi Laoer.
In this short period of time, Shi Laoer had sunk so much that only his shoulders and head were left above the water.
As he struggled desperately, he sank faster and faster. When Meng Lian finally threw the rope in front of him, he only had one hand raised high above the water.
"Fat man!"
Seeing this scene, the thin man Lin Laosan on the side was about to jump on the stone pillar to rescue the fat man.
But at this moment, the starlight on the star road leading to the center of the pool had completely changed its direction.
this……
Seeing the changing star path, Lin Laosan was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Xiao Bai with red eyes.
"It's all you! It's you who said this star road leads to the center of the pond! It's you who killed the fat man."
Seeing that the thin man was about to pounce on Xiao Bai, Meng Lian put down the empty rope in his hand in despair and reached out to stop the thin man.
"Third brother, okay, the responsibility is mine."
"I shouldn't have agreed to this fat man's risk of going to the center of the pool. I should have thought of letting him tie a rope before going in."
Seeing Meng Lian's gloomy face, Lin Laosan slowly lowered his fists, then collapsed and squatted on the ground, holding his head in his hands and crying.
But Sister Si in the team seemed not to hear everything that happened here. She looked into space from time to time, while lowering her head and waving her fingers to count something.
After a while.
"Death's Gate!"
"Fat man is really unlucky."
"I just did some calculations and found that the star positions in this pool of water are related to the Nine Palaces Bagua."
"When the fat man entered the pool, due to the time of day, the starlight reflected a road leading to the door of death."
Hearing this, Meng Lian frowned and asked: "What about Shengmen? When is the way to Shengmen?"
Hearing this, Sisi shook his head.
"I don't know. It depends on the changes in star position and time."
"And these starlights are reflected into the pond through the bronze coffin. I am not sure whether the position of the bronze coffin has been moved. If you failed to put it back to the correct position after lifting it during the day, this will Star Road will have no meaning anymore.”
"The location is right."
After hearing this, Meng Lian said firmly.
"There is a slot under the bronze coffin. If the position is slightly off, there is no way to put it back in place."
Listening to the conversation of several people, Xiao Bai closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Sister Si, if we only consider the Qimen Five Elements Bagua, will it still be unsafe?"
"I don't think any treasure hunter would want someone to be able to accurately find what he has hidden based on some astrology and burial scriptures."
"It's easy to say if this is really a tomb, because according to Feng Shui theories such as burial scriptures, the location of the tomb must be affected by Feng Shui, so there must be traces to follow."
"But although I don't know what you are looking for, I think the probability of this being a tomb is extremely low."
"And since it's not a tomb, then there's no point in exploring the correct route based on Feng Shui Bagua."
Hearing Xiao Bai's words, the three of them were stunned for a moment.
After a moment, Meng Lian shook his head.
"Although this is not a tomb in the traditional sense, if that thing is really here, the person who placed it here will most likely be affected by the Five Elements of Qimen or the Burial Sutra."
"I think it still makes sense to use Feng Shui techniques to determine the path to the center of the pond."
After hearing Meng Lian's rebuttal, Xiao Bai sat back on the sleeping bag indifferently.
No matter what the three of them thought, he had no intention of following the fat man's footsteps.
There is something obviously wrong with the green water in front of me. If a fisherman comes here, he will know that he has to choose to draw water.
But these people are still thinking about what Feng Shui techniques to use.
Seeing Sister Si constantly pinching her fingers to calculate the position of the stars on the pool, Xiao Bai fell asleep again after a while.
"Shengmen!"
"Meng Lian, if you want to get something, now is your chance!"
In his sleep, Xiao Bai was awakened by this sharp voice. When Xiao Bai sat up, Meng Lian had already tied a rope around his waist and was ready to step on the first stone pillar.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Bai instantly became more convinced.
What kind of brother is not a younger brother? How could a living person take such a big risk for a dead person.
"You three, pull the rope for me. If I lose my footing and fall into the water, you must pull me back quickly!"
