The road in the cave is difficult to walk. Sometimes you will encounter steep stone walls, and sometimes you will encounter huge bottomless cracks. Every time you walk forward, Master Mingzong will stop and stretch his hands forward.

, use Qigong to bring a wisp of air under your nose and smell it.

He told Zheng Qiu that this was a technique for exploring unknown caves. Using this method, there would be no chance of setting foot in a miasma area, being unable to get out, and losing one's life.

After walking around the cave for a long time, Zheng Qiu was completely lost. There were stalactites in front and behind, and they all looked the same. However, Master Ming Zong discovered something. He squatted on the ground, picked up a piece of gravel, and examined it carefully.

The shape of the gravel is extremely irregular, but there is a small plane with pits and pits, which are very similar to the long stone steps in the swamp. They should also be the marks of chisels. The building where the roulette wheel is stored must be nearby. He stood up

, increase the brightness of the halo, and continue walking inside with the apprentice.

After climbing over a two-foot-high stone wall, the cave suddenly opened up. When you step inside, you can see gravel scattered everywhere.

Master Ming Zong let the other hand also light up the halo. Under the pale yellow light, everywhere he looked were broken walls and broken pillars. Some walls and stone pillars were deeply embedded in the cave wall, as well as the rocks on the cave wall.

Integrate into one.

It was a building, it finally appeared! Master Mingzong was so excited that he pulled Zheng Qiu forward. The further he went, the higher the cave roof got. After running a few steps, a huge triangular rock appeared in front of the halo.

This boulder is at least ten feet long and four feet high. Zheng Qiu is not as big as the flower and plant reliefs on it. There are many broken walls and broken columns behind the boulder, which are collapsed ruins. Master Ming Zong turned around and determined that this

It's the roof on the front of the building. Since it's the roof, the roulette wheel should be hidden in the ruins behind the boulder.

After bypassing the boulders, Master Mingzong led Zheng Qiu up to the ruins. There were a large number of stalactites mixed in the rubble of the ruins, which should have fallen from the cave roof.

There was a thick layer of stone powder on the surface of the gravel, and large pieces fell off with just a touch of the hand. Master Mingzong opened up the gravel on the surface, lowered his head and looked down, and found that the bottom was not as badly weathered, so the roulette wheel might be well preserved.

"Apprentice, retreat behind the roof."

"Ah? What roof?"

"It's that triangular boulder. Hide behind it and don't come out."

After Zheng Qiu had taken cover, Master Mingzong used his air waves to lift up the rubble on the ruins. Crash, clatter, large pieces of rubble mixed with stone powder were swept to both sides of the cave, revealing the broken walls underneath.

There were still clear reliefs on these stones. He looked closely and found nothing of value, so he had to dig deeper.

This time, Master Mingzong was very careful. He no longer released any waves of energy, but kept his energy in his hands and pushed the stones away one by one with his palms.

When he lifted the stone pillar, an overturned stone tablet jumped into his eyes. The stone tablet was engraved with round words, which were exactly the same as the stone tablet seen in Wentian Pavilion. Master Ming Zong picked up the stone tablet and carefully placed it where Zheng Qiu was hiding.

place, and then he returned to the original place and dug deeper at a faster speed.

Soon, his hand touched a stone slab. Strangely, it seemed that the stone slab could not be lifted up. The more strength he poured into his arm, the stone slab remained motionless.

Is it stuck somewhere? Master Mingzong squatted down and looked along the stone slabs. On the left, right, and directly in front, the stone slabs were extending under the ruins in these directions. This stone slab cannot be the building.

The ground?

Thinking of this, Master Mingzong changed direction and began to clean up the stones in front and on the left and right sides. As the ruins were cleared away bit by bit, the stone slabs gradually revealed their true appearance, and Master Mingzong's heartbeat gradually accelerated, with excitement on his face.

look.

The outer edge of the stone slab is curved, and it is an extremely huge plate. The plate is engraved with strange lines, which become denser as it gets closer to the center. These lines resemble both words and symbols.

There are obvious fracture marks on the big stone plate, and the fracture marks are covered with rusty metal, connecting the broken stone plates together. The stone tablet of Wentian Pavilion has written, "Pick up the broken pieces and repair them, and erect the pillars to form a hall."

It indicates that the roulette wheel has been repaired, and the big stone plate in front of you has been repaired.

Master Ming Zong took a few steps back and raised his hands to let the light shine farther. Only a quarter of the stone plate was dug out, not even a semicircle, but the dug out part was six feet wide. If the stone plate was

If it's completely dug out, it's just a small square.

Looking at the piled stones, Master Ming Zong was heartbroken. He continued digging and found the roulette wheel. How could he be stopped by this difficulty?

Zheng Qiu waited and waited. When he was hungry, he took a meal of herbal medicine. When he was sleepy, he leaned on a stone and fell asleep. He dozed off three times. The master was still digging in the ruins. However, the stone tablets placed around Zheng Qiu became more and more popular.

There are more than twelve pieces, all of which were dug out from the rubble by the master.

Zheng Qiu stood up and walked around the boulder roof to see his master.

At this time, the cleaning of the ruins was coming to an end. Master Mingzong's body was covered with stone powder, and his whole body turned gray. The sweat and stone powder mixed together, forming small hard stone flakes, which continued to fall down with his movements.

Similar to Master Mingzong's estimate, this stone wheel is indeed very large, with a diameter of more than ten feet. A small part of the wheel is embedded in the stone wall of the cave, and the thick rock on the stone wall blocks the lines on the wheel.

The pattern in the center of the wheel is in the shape of a hexagram, with six wavy lines radiating out along the six corners. Large sections of text are engraved around the lines, tightly intertwined.

These characters are twisted and twisted, like earthworms. Master Mingzong has never seen them in any classics, so he can only call them earthworms casually.

Master Ming Zong also knew a thing or two about the battle method. Judging from the pattern on the stone plate, it was obvious that the vermicommons played a vital role in the operation of the stone plate. However, he did not know a word of it and was completely blind.

By the way, there must be something written on those stone tablets. Since the stone tablets and the stone plates are placed in the same building, they must be related to each other. Master Mingzong held up the halo and sat in front of the twelve stone tablets to read slowly. While reading,

While he was taking out pill pills from the bag on the inside of his clothes, he stuffed them into his mouth.

The action of taking pills was seen by Zheng Qiu. He asked worriedly: "Master, why did you take pills? Are you feeling unwell? How about we go back to the inn."

Master Mingzong shook his head and refused: "It doesn't matter, it's just that moving the stones for a long time will consume a lot of energy. Just use pills to restore it."

After saying that, the master stopped talking to Zheng Qiu and concentrated on studying the contents on the stone tablets. The words on these stone tablets and the words on the Wentian Pavilion stone tablet were written in exactly the same handwriting and were written by the same person.

On one of the stone tablets, there is a signature, Mu Meihua. Obviously, this Mu Meihua is not the real name.

The words and phrases on the stele are different from those in Wentian Pavilion. They are not messed up. Each paragraph records an event that happened. However, the order of events is messed up, making it difficult to find the key content.

After watching for a long time, Master Mingzong finally found the first thing that happened: the sky was very abnormal, it was daytime, there were no dark clouds in the sky... The sky was very dark, the sunlight seemed not to reach the ground... It was a roulette wheel, from the sky
