The grim-faced Taoist priest couldn't help but move his gaze to the bottom of the cave. At this time, he happened to see the stone ball rolling back hit the bronze plate again.
"Eh? Is the frequency of the stone ball rolling back and forth so high?" The Taoist Priest with a grimace had some clues. If the stone ball hits the bronze drum quickly and continuously, then the one after another sounds can easily be connected into a tune, but the "force" of pushing the stone ball "Where did it come from?" How can a narrow underground river push the stone ball back and forth and keep swinging?
The grim-faced Taoist priest looked along the main stream of the underground river until he saw the stone gate on the opposite side. There was obviously a dark cave under the side of the stone door, and the river water at the bottom of the cave flowed out of this dark cave.
At this time, another doubt appeared in the mind of the Taoist Ghostface: Where did the water in the cave come from?
Could it be the Yellow River outside? But the current is not fast... Huh? ! Guitou Reef!
The grimace Taoist suddenly remembered the Guitou Reef outside. There were rumors in Gaoping town that on the side of the Guitou Reef facing the Yellow River, there was a cave entrance half hidden in the water. The entrance of the cave was as high as one person, and as the river rose, When it falls, it disappears and sometimes appears. The reason why Guitou Reef is called this is because the shape of the reef is very much like a skeleton, and this hole happens to be the mouth of the skeleton.
Could it be that the river water in this underground cave flows in from the mouth of the skull?
The more the Grimace Taoist thought about it, the more likely he felt that this was possible. In this season, the river water outside did not flow into the cave entrance at once, but followed the tide one after another. It felt like the ghost head was breathing, so like this Wouldn't it match the rhythm of the water flow at the bottom of the cave?
It is precisely because the river water pours in in waves that the underground river can push the stone balls back and forth rhythmically, and then make the bronze drums continuously make sounds to form a tune, thus achieving the effect of continuous melodious sound and making those who step on it go crazy.
The owner of the tomb worked hard, taking advantage of the situation to dig mountains and pile rocks to divert canals. The ultimate goal seemed to be only one - to torture everyone who stepped into the tomb.
The ghost-faced Taoist priest felt a chill running down his spine, without any sense of relief after solving the puzzle. How much did the owner of the tomb hate the person who turned him upside down? To actually set up such a vicious trap, this is the first time he has encountered such a strange method in his experience of Mushroom Gate.
However, the grimace Taoist then thought about it, isn't it right for the tomb owner to hate the tomb robbers? I am a person who does what I do and loves what I do, and it is not shameful to think about it. Who wants their bones to be trampled upon after death? From the perspective of the tomb owner, not to mention driving the tomb robbers crazy, even cutting him into pieces and feeding them to fish would not be enough to vent his hatred.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace curled his lips, thinking that the poor Taoist would not be lucky enough to feed the fish. Since he chose to enter the Mushroom Gate at that time, he and the owner of the tomb were enemies separated by yin and yang. Today, his ghost adjustment mechanism did not kill the poor Taoist. He said, then when he touches the fish later, he will not be merciful. Otherwise, how can he be worthy of the tomb owner's painstaking efforts to harm him?
Speaking of fishing, the Taoist priest with a grimace couldn't help but bring his thoughts back to reality. There was still Mrs. Qi's group hiding in front of him. Isn't it too early to mention fishing? What's more, there is also Boss Zhao whose whereabouts are unknown. If he traps Lama, he has to look for him. The problem is that Boss Zhao is probably crazy. Who knows where a madman can go? And after so long, could the others have already died?
The more the Grimace Taoist thought about it, the more irritated he became. How could a good fight turn into a hide-and-seek game, but he was still the blindfolded one. This feeling is not pleasant. Who knows whether an enemy or a madman will pop up in the next moment? Faced with this situation where the enemy is in darkness and we are in the clear, he must find some way to change it.
At this time, in the cave, the last light of the fire dove disappeared with the sound of falling water, and the surrounding environment was once again shrouded in darkness.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace looked at the fluorite in his hand, and thought about a way that he could not think of for a while, so he could only hide his traces first. He thought of stuffing the fluorite directly into his arms and preparing to act completely in the dark.
The grim-faced Taoist priest had already observed the situation in the cave. Apart from the ghost-tuning mechanism, there was almost nothing else there. So the next step was to walk across the stone bridge and see what was behind the stone door.
The grim-faced Taoist priest walked forward without saying a word. He had a pair of night eyes and could vaguely distinguish objects in the dark. In addition, he had observed the surrounding environment in advance, so it was not difficult to cross a stone bridge, so he used After a while, people had reached the opposite side of the stone bridge.
The stone gate at the head of the bridge is built close to the bridge body, giving the impression that the stone bridge leads directly to the gate.
The Taoist priest with a grimace saw that the stone door was half open, so he stepped on the bridge and reached the door, ready to peek behind the door. He held his breath and concentrated on guarding against anything that might appear behind the door, but suddenly he felt his ankle tighten, and then his whole body was dragged under the bridge by a brute force.
The Taoist priest with a grimace suddenly lost his balance. He didn't even have time to be shocked, and he fell off the bridge sideways.
After falling off the stone bridge, the grimace Taoist priest immediately felt that he had fallen onto a stone slab. He didn't bother to take a closer look, because a figure in front of him had already rushed toward him.
The figure moved quickly. When Taoist Ghostface first discovered it, a sharp blade in his hand was less than two inches away from Taoist Ghostface's face.
The grimace Taoist suddenly felt that the edge of the sword was approaching, but the distance was too close and he had no time to react. In desperation, he could only tilt his head as far as possible, and then a sharp pain came from the middle of the ear bone - this sword must have hit him The ears were pierced in half.
The grim-faced Taoist endured the pain, pushed the black shadow away, and quickly rolled to the side. Unexpectedly, there was an empty ball next to him, and he immediately fell down again after rolling.
This time, the grimace Taoist priest did not fall onto the stone slab again, but felt his back hit an arc. He groaned in pain and immediately understood that he had fallen onto a stone ball at the bottom of the cave.
At the same time, the grimace Taoist also thought that the stone slab that had just fallen was actually the upper edge of the stone canal used for diversion outside the water inlet cave. That section of the stone canal was just under the stone bridge, and the black shadow was lurking there, always Waiting for him to come over so he can launch a sudden attack.
The Taoist priest with a grimace cursed his mother fiercely. The black shadow attacked him with a sword. Could this person be the old monster Ning that Zhao Sanshui mentioned? He quickly searched for the enemy in the darkness, and soon saw a group of shadows under the stone bridge, tumbling and jumping rapidly, which was clearly chasing him.
"Damn it! I'll fuck you grandmas who touched the Golden Colonel!" The grim-faced Taoist priest was furious. This guy just attacked him secretly. Now he actually dares to rush over brazenly. His grandma won't give you any bright spots. Do you really think that the poor Taoist is a stick used to burn incense and worship gods in the temple? !
The Taoist Priest with a grimace raised his wrist crossbow and held the Long Ming Dao in his right hand. He had no intention of retreating at this time. Even for the sake of the hole in his ear, the idea of Ning must be killed today. Thinking about it, I couldn't help but reach out and touch my ear. I was stunned when I touched it - that sword just now... actually poked out the cotton plug in my ear? !
