I was anxious, but the distance between me and the strange fish was still six or seven meters, and I couldn't get any strength in the water. I could only watch the strange fish's head dive down, its tail swing up, and a wave of waves disappeared.
Wow, the surrounding water is getting lower and lower, and it is almost gone.
By the time I got closer, my feet had already touched hard ground.
Look around again, front, back, left, right, up and down... everything is filled with sky fire stones.
However, due to the dissipation of the evil spirit, the Sky Fire Stone can only emit light as bright as before, like a weak flame.
This pool is so big that when I stand in it, I feel like I'm in flames.
With a splash, the water in the pool completely receded, and the entire ground was exposed. There was no water in most places.
Only at the foot of the giant stone statue is a circular pool with a radius of six or seven meters. The water is covered with waves, and strange fish have got into it.
It’s not going to be easy now!
I stood by the pool and felt anxious.
Bang bang, there were rapid footsteps coming from behind.
Lan Jianguo, Du Jun, plus Hong Gang, who was wearing dog skin, and two little girls, pulled each other and ran over.
"Xiao Dao, how about it? Then, what about the evil spirits?" Du Jun stood beside me and took a breath.
His automatic rifle was already slung on his back. His whole body had been submerged in the water just now, so the gun was temporarily unusable.
"Right in front, is there a big puddle there? This is the real eye of the formation, and evil spirits are hidden in it." I pointed to the round pool of water at the foot of the giant and said.
Du Jun, Lan Jianguo and others did not dare to go forward when they heard that the evil spirit was inside.
Du Jun took out all the grenades in his waterproof backpack, and took out a few detonators and explosives, and waved them at me: "There are some explosives here, can they be used?"
I shook my head and said, "No, this is a pool. Throwing grenades in it is useless!"
"Then what should we do? How about destroying this formation? Aren't we going to be trapped here for the rest of our lives?" Du Jun asked anxiously.
Lan Yue and the others became anxious when they heard what I said.
It was easy to find the formation, but I didn't expect it to be like this again.
Could it be that we are really trapped in this hole and can never get out?
Lan Jianguo was not so panicked. He looked around.
We are now in a dry cave, very low to the ground.
The pool is sunken and extends downward for more than thirty meters.
Connected to the original space outside the pool, the height of the cave is fifty or sixty meters.
At this time, we could no longer see our heads when we looked up. We were like a few dwarfs trapped in a large valley, feeling extremely small.
Lan Jianguo took out the pieces of luminous sand from his backpack and asked Hong Gang and Alito to act as assistants.
He circled the surrounding ground and stone walls to inspect them.
At this time, we also discovered some special features on the ground. There were many watermelon-sized holes around the underground pool, one every five or six meters apart. There were also some spells and patterns carved on the ground and walls.
I glanced briefly and knew that this was a Feng Shui charm. The Feng Shui formation of Carp Leaping Dragon Gate was more complicated than ordinary ones.
Lan Jianguo is not good at these. He is mainly looking for mechanisms.
The old man observed very carefully, and after searching for more than ten minutes, he finally found the clue.
After circling around for a while, Lan Jianguo finally stopped at the calf of the stone statue.
Lan Jianguo smiled and told us that there must be some mechanism in this area. These pores below are the channels through which the pool water is introduced. It is impossible to do it by Feng Shui alone.
Moreover, this mechanism, like the original Six Desires Ecstasy Formation, is also controlled by the Formation Eye.
According to Lan Jianguo's deduction, as long as we find the mechanism, we can drain the water in the formation eye. At that time, we can kill the strange fish with a grenade, destroy the formation eye, and we can get out.
Lan Jianguo pointed to the stone statue above the pool: "Look, there is a big pattern on his instep, the mechanism should be there.
"Xiao Dao, see if you can climb up and look there!"
I followed Lan Jianguo's finger and looked over.
The instep of the giant stone statue is about two meters above the ground. It is not difficult to climb up.
The stone statues are built to protrude outwards, which results in uneven walls and many points of strength.
Don’t say it’s someone like me who knows how to do Qinggong.
Even ordinary people like Du Jun can climb up with stones as long as they are careful.
"Xiao Dao, you're down there watching the strange fish. What if it comes out later? I'll go up." Du Jun inserted his gun into his waist and headed forward.
I quickly stretched out my hand to stop him.
"Army, let me go! The evil spirit has been seriously injured and has even revealed its true form. It is not that powerful anymore. Your gun is enough to deal with it."
"Besides, this position isn't too high. What's the matter? I can jump down in an instant."
I hung the mahogany stick on my waist, turned to Lan Jianguo and said, "Uncle Lan, I'm going to explore the way for you. What's the trick? You can tell me again."
Lan Jianguo said: "Don't worry, this kind of ancient mechanism installed in the cave is very concealed, and the switch will definitely not be complicated.
"A mechanism that is too precise will be easily damaged, and its switch is nothing more than moving left and right, up and down, inside and outside."
I nodded, took off my wet coat, put on a small vest, and tightened the loose shoelaces, took two steps back, and ran straight away without using the tiger claws.
Whoosh, I ran forward and jumped forward. My toes touched the wall, and the height in the air was already more than two meters.
When falling, I found the right direction, stepped on two protruding stones, and touched them with my hands, which happened to be close to the instep of the stone statue.
After standing firm, I put my hand on the upper edge and leaned sideways to take a closer look.
Well, there aren't any protruding or recessed rocks here.
I touched it again with my hand, and there were no gaps around it.
Could it be that Lan Jianguo got it wrong?
I turned around and shouted: "Uncle Lan, it doesn't look like there is an agency here?"
Lan Jianguo was stunned for a moment, then he squatted down again, knocked nearby, and stood up and said: "The knife is absolutely correct, that must be the location of the agency, you can look for it carefully.
Well, okay, I'll look for it more carefully!
But there must not be any extra stones,
There is a pattern on the wall, with a small circle in the middle and some petals carved around it. This is also a decorative carving pattern.
I was worried that I had overlooked something, so I touched it carefully with my fingers.
Absolutely nothing special!
I was just about to turn around and ask Lan Jianguo again, when my eyes swept over the hands groping for patterns.
Well, I happened to see that ring on my finger.
The size of the ring seems to be exactly the same as the circle in the middle of the pattern.
Eh? An idea flashed through my mind.
This ring is an ancestral possession of Grandpa Wang, and is said to be related to the treasures of the Qing Dynasty.
But after Grandpa Wang gave it to me, he never knew what it was used for. Could it be that it is a part that activates the mechanism?
