On the third floor of His Highness Qionghua, Yu Qingqing raised his head and looked at the double door on the right with his hands behind his back, frowning in confusion.
Mo Guyuan stood behind Yu Qinggong, looking at her serious thinking, and felt a little cute in his heart.
Yu Qinggong looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out. He turned around and said to Mo Guyuan, "What the hell is it written about the seventh day of the month? There are only seven days in a month."
Mo Guyuan also looked at it, shook his head and said, "Maybe someone wrote it like this on purpose. Let's guess what it is for."
Yu Qinggong sighed in despair, walked forward, then sat down on the stairs, holding his face in his hands, saying, "There must be something weird on the seventh day of the month, maybe it is the key that can open the door."
Mo Guyuan was stunned for a moment, and then he slowly reached out to touch the characters. There was some dust on the font. Mo Guyuan checked it back and forth several times, but he could not see any mechanism on it. It was no different from the ordinary gilded characters.
"What are you doing?" Yu Qinggong asked in confusion when he saw Mo Guyuan's movements.
Mo Guyuan scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, and said, "The last time I went to Fajiu Island, I encountered a similar situation in Caiyun Stream. At that time, I accidentally touched a point on a certain character on it, and I didn't expect that it was the solution. Open the mechanism that seals the door. I just heard you say that these words might open the door, so I thought about trying it to see if it would work, but it doesn't seem to work this time."
When Yu Qingqing heard this, he smiled, burst out laughing, and said to Mo Guyuan, "Are you stupid? If you act like this, won't you have to touch every word you see in the future?"
Mo Guyuan smiled coquettishly and said, "It's not impossible, I have to give it a try anyway. If it turns out it's true, I'll get it right."
Yu Qingqing rolled his eyes, pointed at Mo Guyuan and said, "Is it because of our previous bet that your desire to win has become stronger?"
The two of them had made a bet before, Yu Qinggong bet on the left side, and Mo Guyuan bet on the right side. It was also the door with "January 7th" written on it.
If Mo Guyuan wins, then Yu Qinggong will have to call him brother. On the contrary, if Yu Qinggong wins, Mo Guyuan will have to call her sister. Although it was a bit nonsensical, the two of them were also in high spirits. After all, they had nothing to do and it was good to take advantage.
"No...yes, I...I didn't think that way. Besides, you said the bet. I was just participating. I definitely didn't think that way... ..." Mo Guyuan hesitated, his expression a little unnatural.
When Yu Qinggong saw this, he glanced at him suspiciously, tilted his head and said, "Seriously?"
Mo Guyuan did not dare to hesitate and kept nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Yu Qingqing smiled softly and whispered, "Idiot."
In the dim underground, only a few lights from above slowly floated in. The two rested for a while, then cheered up again and started exploring around.
For a long time, the two of them were still at a loss. Yu Qingchun probably didn't want to waste any more time, so he turned around and said to Mo Guyuan, "I've been looking at this for a long time, and I can't see any secret passage. Let's go back."
Hearing this, Mo Guyuan looked around again and said, "It doesn't matter, this land of the Shark Clan is full of weirdness. Since we can't find a way, let's retreat first."
Yu Qinggong joked, "Wouldn't it be a pity if Chaos can't wake up if we don't think of any solution in the end?"
Mo Guyuan didn't pay much attention to this, and immediately said, "Chaos needs to rely on absorbing the spiritual power of the treasure of heaven and earth to nourish its wounds, but this treasure of heaven and earth is not so easy to find. Since you can't get in now, you can't force it. , there will always be opportunities in the future.”
His vision was blurry and the light and shadow were dim. In the haze, Yu Qingqing looked at Mo Guyuan's calm look. He stared at it for a long time and wandered in place for a while.
Mo Guyuan was about to walk up when he saw Yu Qingqing standing there stupidly, a little confused, and asked softly, "Miss Yu, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Qinggong remained unmoved, standing below and looking at the stone door on the left in fascination.
Mo Guyuan's heart was shocked, as if he had sensed something, and the inexplicable emotion in his heart gradually deepened. His intuition was that there was something strange coming from behind the stone door, which gave Mo Guyuan an urgent desire in his heart. Just like at the beginning, it was brought about by chaos. Feel it yourself.
Mo Guyuan once again held Huan Chaos in his hands and looked at him. The latter's body flashed with fluorescence for several times, but he was still asleep.
Mo Guyuan turned around and walked to the stone door. He leaned close and tried to hear something with his ears, but he couldn't hear a sound. Mo Guyuan frowned tightly. The strangeness caused by the chaos in his heart came out of nowhere, which made him a little confused. He was obviously fine before, but why did he feel this way again and again.
Chaos was obviously in a deep sleep, but the strange things she caused from time to time made Mo Guyuan think she was awake, which really made him not know where to start.
Mo Guyuan looked behind him. Yu Qingqing was still standing there, looking at him and the stone door behind him, in a daze. Mo Guyuan saw Yu Qinggong's eyes were blurred and his face was dull, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"No! It wasn't Chaos' own perception from the beginning. It was something on this island that was deliberately guiding him to mislead him into thinking that there was some treasure here, attracting him here." Mo Guyuan realized later. , and suddenly cold sweat ran down my back.
Yu Qingqing stood dumbly, and Mo Guyuan immediately came to her side, gently grabbed her hand with one hand, and used the effect of Nine Dragon Glazed Jade to wake her up.
The soft light of Nine Dragon Glazed Jade followed Mo Guyuan's arm and moved towards Yu Qinggong. After a while, Yu Qinggong blinked his eyes in shock, looked at Mo Guyuan who was close to Chi Chi, and asked with a glare "Why are you standing so close?"
Mo Guyuan took a long breath and said, "You were attracted by something here before, as if you had lost your soul. I'm afraid something will happen to you, so I can't think of a way to wake you up."
Yu Qingqing was stunned for a moment. He was thinking about something while looking at the stone gate. As he was thinking about it, his head seemed to be in a trance for a moment, but he didn't know why.
Yu Qingqing was about to step forward when he suddenly felt there was still a trace of warmth in his hands. He looked down and saw that Mo Guyuan was still holding his wrist firmly.
Yu Qinggurgling remained calm, turned her head, her face was slightly red, and she did not struggle.
The Nine Dragon Glazed Jade still followed the connection between them, and bursts of light flooded around the two of them. Looking over, under the dim bottom, there were only two people standing silently, as if confused in the light and shadow.
Mo Guyuan never thought that as long as he was close to Yu Qinggong, the Nine Dragon Glazed Jade would automatically react to Yu Qinggong as well as to him.
He only knew that on the day they first met Taolin, he accidentally hurt her. At that time, the Nine Dragon Glazed Jade was inexplicably bright, and the energy in the jade penetrated into Yu Qingxing's body. After that, Mo Guyuan thought that the glazed jade had some effect on the fish girl.
But this Nine Dragon Glazed Jade was something worn by the Dragon God in the past, and it is also the pinnacle of the world's top artifacts.
After a while, Mo Guyuan asked Yu Qinggong in confusion, "Miss Yu, I saw you staring at the stone gate in a daze earlier, but did you see any clues?"
Yu Qingchun paused, stretched out his other hand and pointed forward, and said, "Look at the two sides of the stone door, do you find any difference?"
Following the direction pointed by Yu Qinggong, Mo Guyuan looked curiously and saw two small stone platforms with lamps protruding slightly on both sides of the stone door on the left, with a wick inserted in the middle on each side.
Mo Guyuan looked confused and asked, "Isn't it just two extinguished lampstands? Is there anything strange about it?"
Yu Qinggong shook his head, slowly turned around and walked towards the back. He pointed at the double wooden door on the right and said, "But there are no lampstands on both sides of this door. If it is said that the Shark tribe did this on purpose, Don't you think it's strange to build? Before, you went all the way down the stairs. Only the bottom staircase had many steps, and it wound around several times. Before you went down the stairs, there were lights on both sides of the stone wall. It was spread all over it and was not extinguished, but it was extinguished when it came here. Moreover, one of the two doors has lampstands on both sides, but the other side does not. How can it be justified?"
Mo Guyuan nodded and pondered, looked at the faint light above, and then looked around both sides. Hearing what Yu Qinggong said, it made sense.
"Miss Yu, you mean if we light these two lamps, is it possible to open this stone door?" Mo Guyuan said slowly.
"Not necessarily, I'm just curious about these two lampstands, but I can give them a try." Yu Qinggong replied.
"Okay, let's light up the lampstand first and take a look." After saying this, Mo Guyuan raised his hand and waved his finger, and a stream of light quickly fell towards the wick on the lampstand.
The stream of light swept over the wick, and the wick shook but showed no response.
The two looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. Mo Guyuan tried again, but the result was still the same. When Yu Qinggong saw this, he waved his hand and cast a spell to sweep towards the other lampstand. However, it was still the same, and the wick remained motionless.
"What...what's going on? Why can't this lampstand be lit?" Yu Qingqing was stunned, with questions on his head.
Mo Guyuan thought for a while, then smiled slightly at Yu Qinggong and said, "I'm afraid this wick cannot be lit with ordinary flames."
"Huh? If you don't need fire, what should you use?" Yu Qingqing asked curiously.
Mo Guyuan pointed to the top of the wooden door and said, "January 7th, I guess that's the answer."
"You! After doing it for a long time, you still have to guess word puzzles." Yu Qinggong slapped his forehead with one hand, feeling a little depressed.
"When we came here before, we didn't know which door was behind the Qionghua Pond, but the strange thing just now has confirmed that the stone gate leads to the Qionghua Pond. As for the mechanism to unlock the stone gate, it should be the ones on both sides above. It’s just a lampstand, but we can’t light it. And there are four characters for January 7th written on this wooden door. I initially thought that this is the place where the Shark Clan practices. These four characters are just to remind the Shark Clan people to practice January 7th. However, It seems it won't be that simple now." Mo Guyuan said slowly.
"Having said all that, why don't you solve this riddle?" Yu Qinggong curled his lips and said to Mo Guyuan.
Mo Guyuan looked at Yu Qinggong with bright eyes, looking pleased and contented. Seeing that Mo Guyuan was confident and pretending to be profound, Yu Qinggong asked with a little surprise, "Could it be that you have already guessed it?"
Mo Guyuan smiled and nodded, saying, "I used to see this in my hometown when we were doing lantern riddles on the fifteenth day of the Lantern Festival. I didn't expect that someone in this foreign world would actually use this sentence to make riddles. It can be considered a coincidence."
"What's the answer?"
"The seventh day of January begins with the word "month", and the seven days complement each other. The month is the radical on the left, and the seventh day is on the right. Isn't it the fat of rouge?" Mo Guyuan said.
Yu Qing thought for a while and said, "January 7th is fat... eh, it's true!"
Immediately afterwards, Yu Qinggong's face was filled with joy and he asked Mo Guyuan, "Is it possible that this wick needs to be seasoned with rouge before it can be lit?"
Mo Guyuan did not doubt that it was fake, nodded and said, "That should be the case, but I guess that the rouge is used as the material, and I am afraid it is not an ordinary rouge. Only the rouge unique to the Shark tribe can light this lampstand."
Yu Qingqing was just about to take out some rouge from his belongings, but after hearing what Mo Guyuan said, he felt puzzled again.
"It is undoubtedly grease, but it is not the rouge used by women to apply makeup. Since it is in the realm of the Shark tribe, the mechanism they set up must be related to the Shark tribe. I guess it is the grease of the Shark tribe itself." Mo Guyuan continued. .
"grease?"
"Exactly, I have read some introductions about the Sharks in the Huang Ting Jing's outer volume. The ignition point of the shark's grease is very low, comparable to that of ordinary lamp oil. A drop of the shark's grease can burn for an extremely long time, so there is a saying of an ever-lasting lamp. "
"I see, after struggling for so long, it seems there is still no way to open this stone door." Yu Qinggong said a little discouraged.
Mo Guyuan was not as dejected as Yu Qinggong. Instead, he was a little happy and said, "If you know how to break this place, don't worry about it. Anyway, we have already arrived at the Shark Clan. If we want to get the shark grease, we need to Just find a way."
Yu Qinggong looked at him, but Mo Guyuan blinked with a sly look, saying nothing.
Just as the two of them turned to leave, Yu Qinggong pointed his hands together and waved toward the underground sunken platform. After a while, another pool filled it, and it returned to its original state.
