Shang Fang's sword broke through the water and instantly hit Bai Hu's forehead.
With a pop, the white tiger took a few steps back. After dodging the splitting water, he quickly opened the distance between him and me.
I took the opportunity to turn sharply, passed the white tiger, and rushed towards the ball of light.
The moment I took action, the white tiger also realized my target, and its huge claws smacked me directly.
I couldn't dodge, and was hit by the tip of the claw, and was sent flying away.
I rolled heavily in the water twice and stabilized my body with a thought.
My soul is now separated from my body, and this white tiger can even hurt my soul. It seems that the strange things happening underground must be caused by this white tiger.
And this white tiger has been standing in front of me, preventing me from approaching the light ball.
I suddenly realized that this thing was consciously protecting the white ball of light and preventing me from getting close to it.
"It seems that the problem should be with this white ball of light. I have to find a way to get closer."
Thinking of this, I immediately dived out from under the water.
At this time, Cui Hao was still staying on the shore, watching our bodies closely.
Seeing me emerging, he immediately ran towards me.
"How's it going? What's going on down there?"
Before he finished speaking, the water pattern next to us quickly moved to both sides, and in an instant, a white tiger suddenly pounced up from below.
The white tiger opened its huge mouth and rushed towards the two of us.
Cui Hao was so frightened that his legs weakened and he almost sat down on the ground.
I directly grabbed his arm and dragged him under the water. I swam quickly and lurked under the water, avoiding one of the white tiger's attacks.
I dragged him swimming to the other side. After emerging from the water, I pressed Cui Hao and dragged him to the edge of the pool.
"Be careful. This white tiger is hiding under the pool, and there is a light group where its tail is. I think this light group is the most important thing."
I pointed in the direction of the white tiger and pointed at the water surface.
"I can't get through it alone, so I need your help."
Cui Hao was breathing heavily, looking at the tall and ferocious white tiger not far in front of us, and he stayed on the spot dully.
"Okay, what do you want me to do to help you? But if you ask me to fight this guy, I might not be able to beat him."
I quickly held my breath, dragged Cui Hao and dived down.
"Come on, help me distract this white tiger. I'll try my best to get close to the ball of light to see what it is. I have a hunch that as long as we destroy this ball, maybe we can end this white tiger's attack." attack."
Cui Hao nodded at me, his throat rolled and his face turned red. He quickly lowered his body and rushed directly in the direction of Bai Hu.
This guy moves extremely fast.
Before I even had time to say a few more words, he had already rushed in front of Bai Hu, holding up a glass lamp and shouting loudly at Bai Hu.
"If you have the guts, just come to me. Grandpa is standing in front of you. If you have the guts, just come over!"
Bai Hu roared at him, suddenly shook his body and pounced directly towards Cui Hao.
Cui Hao turned around suddenly, paddled quickly and moved Bai Hu away to the side.
As he was leaving, he popped up and shouted to me.
"Master Man, please move quickly. Otherwise, I may not be able to hold on for a while."
After speaking, his voice gradually faded away, and it was obvious that he had led the white tiger to rush towards the other side of the pool.
I didn't dare waste time and immediately dived and swam to the bottom of the pool.
I could clearly see that a cloud of white smoke did emerge from the tip of the white tiger's tail, slowly drifting along the ripples on the bottom of the water, and gradually gathered around the ball of light.
I immediately swam toward the ball of light.
Just when I was only about half a meter away from the light ball.
The water around me exploded violently.
I quickly looked back.
The white tiger seemed to be aware of the danger, and actually left Cui Hao aside, turned its head and rushed towards me.
There is only one chance.
I quickly reached out and grabbed the white ball hard, hugged it hard in my arms, turned around and swam towards the shore.
The white tiger roared and rushed towards me quickly.
I sped up my swimming speed and swam to the side of the hot spring pool in a few strokes. I quickly grabbed the river bank and rushed to the top of the river bank.
The moment I climbed onto the shore.
The white tiger that had already pounced behind me, opened its mouth and was about to swallow my bones into its belly, suddenly stopped making any movement.
I glanced back.
I saw a cloud of smoke spreading from the bottom of the pool, and the white tiger just disappeared before my eyes.
I gasped and slowly took out the white ball in my arms.
At this time, Cui Hao also slowly swam over from a distance. He quickly rushed to my side and followed me to look at the thing in my arms.
"What the hell is this?"
I looked down at the sphere in my hand. To be precise, it was a bronze mirror.
On the back of the mirror, a lifelike tall white tiger is clearly depicted.
Right now.
A cloud of white smoke suddenly floated out of the pool. The white smoke transformed into a fierce white tiger and quickly flew towards the bronze mirror in my hand.
After a moment, the figure of the white tiger disappeared on the back of the bronze mirror and disappeared completely.
"Good stuff!"
Cui Hao stared at the bronze mirror in my hand with greed in his eyes.
I quickly put the things back.
"Don't move around, it's very weird. Don't try to trick him."
Just as the two of us were talking.
Suddenly I felt a huge pulling force on my body. Before I even had time to react, I felt like I was being dragged towards the middle of the river.
Just for a moment.
My body sank suddenly, and when I regained consciousness again, I was already lying in the middle of the hot spring pool.
My body is floating on the warm water, drifting quietly with the waves.
"Fat man, how are you?"
I quickly turned around and swam on the water, looking at Cui Hao beside me.
Cui Hao opened his eyes, quickly paddled and swam to the river bank with me.
He was breathing heavily, and as soon as he reached the river bank, he kept touching my body.
I panicked when he touched me and quickly shook his hand away.
"what are you doing?"
Cui Hao kept fumbling with my pockets and the backpack I was carrying.
"Where's that bronze mirror just now? Where did you hide it?"
I shook my head and pushed Cui Hao's hand away.
"I didn't take it. When we returned to the body, the thing seemed to be gone."
I looked around and didn't see the shadow of the bronze mirror around.
Cui Hao still refused to give up.
He walked around carefully, searching the ground carefully.
Of course there is nothing above ground.
He lurked under the hot spring water again and searched under the hot spring.
Of course nothing was found.
Cui Hao swam up from below with a frustrated expression and walked helplessly in front of me.
"There is nothing. I wonder if the bronze mirror is just our illusion?"
I shrugged and pointed toward the way we'd come.
"Don't worry about the bronze mirror. There are several other tombstones under the ground. We didn't go down. Let's go to other tombs to see the situation. There may be good treasures in other places. The bronze mirror looks weird at first glance. The one on it is The white tiger is also very strange, I think it’s a good thing that it’s gone.”
My words seemed to comfort Cui Hao.
After wandering around again without giving up, he finally gave up.
Cui Hao followed me silently. The two of us lay down on the river bank and rested for a while. Then we cheered up and followed the path we came from, climbed over the passage again, climbed over the iron rope again, and returned to the ground.
As soon as he reached the ground this time, Cui Hao couldn't help but circle around carefully.
At the same time, he immediately went to pull the trigger of the birth gate.
After confirming that the glottis could be opened, Cui Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that this time, we are finally back on the real ground. Our souls have returned to our bodies, and we don't have to encounter any strange ghosts like before."
I nodded and looked around carefully.
My eyes fell on the woods not far away.
The forest has returned to calm, and there are no longer shadows wandering and flickering in it like just now.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and my eyes fell on these stone tablets again.
I suddenly thought of the white tiger I met below and the green dragon I met before.
I immediately turned around and looked at Cui Hao.
"Cui Hao, do you think the ones installed in this place are Blue Dragon, White Tiger, and Suzaku Xuanwu?"
I pointed at the wound door.
"This place corresponds to the east, and the east also corresponds to the blue dragon."
I pointed to the startling door we climbed up just now.
"The startling door is to the west, which corresponds to the white tiger."
As soon as these words came out, Cui Hao's eyes suddenly lit up.
His eyes quickly fell on several other stone monuments.
"That means that when we were exploring Jingmen and Xiumen, they also corresponded to Suzaku and Xuanwu, right?"
I nodded.
If this guess can be confirmed, then we can be relatively prepared when we enter several other tombs in the future.
Cui Hao suddenly became eager to try.
"I discovered a problem. When we entered the Death Gate and other gates before, we didn't get any good treasures inside."
With that said, Cui Hao quickly came to the land beside him, peeled away the soil and found the tin rod from inside.
"But when we passed through the two tombs of Qinglong and Baihu, we saw treasures inside."
As he said that, Cui Hao couldn't help but feel pain in his body.
"I just don't know where the bronze mirror corresponding to the white tiger has been moved. I think this thing is definitely a real object. It's a pity that the two of us have no chance to get it."
