We returned to the water and after some discussion, we came up with a solution. With the joint efforts of the three of us, we cut off several long branches from this tree. Although this tree was a bit weird, it did not have the ability to actively attack people.
, so we can achieve our goal so easily. The bark of this tree is very thick. We pulled out the wooden core inside, thus making three tubes. By breathing through these tubes, we can stay underwater for a long time.
.
The three of them dived into the water again. To avoid accidents, we walked together. The fat man was in front, Wang Kui was behind, and I was in the middle. The fat man found a gap between tree roots and got in. What people didn't expect was that there were layers of layers outside.
The space inside the roots of the tree turned out to be empty. Except for a few random rocks tens of meters away, there was only a stone platform. I just looked at it and couldn't help but be stunned.
There are two stone dragon sculptures on this stone platform, and there is a copper tripod in the middle. I am very familiar with it. I have seen the Dragon Zhentai several times before. Sure enough, this place has something to do with dragon chasers. This Dragon Zhentai
It is the symbol of the Dragon Chaser, and there is such a platform everywhere he has been.
What I thought was that there was a huge secret hidden under each dragon-suppressing platform, and I began to look forward to it. I wondered if there were also unknown secrets under this dragon-suppressing platform.
The three of us climbed directly to the dragon-suppressing platform. Our previous experiences had given us enough experience. We didn’t need to waste too much time on unnecessary things. We turned the bronze tripod, which was quite labor-intensive.
, if it is on flat ground, only one person can easily create it, but under water, it takes three of us to work together to slowly turn it.
But the imagined scene did not appear. Although it was turned once, the bronze tripod and stone platform remained the same without any change. Did it go in the wrong direction? We turned it in the opposite direction twice more, but there was still no effect at all.
.I thought to myself, could it be that it took too long and the Zhenlongtai has been corroded underwater for a long time, and the mechanisms inside have become decayed and useless?
I made a gesture to them and revealed the doubts in my heart. Wang Kui shook his head, pulled out the tube and mouthed to us: "No, since the dragon chaser put this thing here, it must be
Thinking of this, it must be that we have not found the right method, let's look for it again."
The fat man climbed directly into the cauldron, while I swam to a stone sculpture. I patiently checked the stone sculpture over and over, but found nothing. On the other side, Wang Kui also finished checking another stone sculpture. He looked towards
I waved my hand and said I didn't find anything.
Now only the fat man was left, and I didn’t know if he had found anything in the cauldron. But when I turned around, I saw that the fat man hadn’t come out yet. I frowned, and suddenly I had an ominous premonition in my heart. Although the cauldron was not
It's small, but the space inside is also very limited. It's impossible for there to be no movement for such a long time.
Wang Kui and I hurriedly swam to the front, only to find that the fat man had disappeared, the tube had fallen off, and the entire cauldron was empty.
We were all a little dumbfounded now. There was no trace of a hole in the cauldron. How could a living person suddenly disappear? I just wanted to get into the cauldron to see what was going on, but Wang Kui pulled me back and signaled
I'll come up to the water to discuss it first.
"What's going on? A big living person just disappeared like this?" I was anxious to death. The fat man would definitely not make such a meaningless joke. His sudden disappearance must have been caused by an accident. Especially Guan Zi
It has fallen off and he can't hold it underwater for too long.
Wang Kui glanced around and said: "I know you are anxious, but the problem is too dangerous. Although the little fat man looks frizzy, he is actually a very cautious person. If he has an accident, even if
There may not be any problems if you go down, we have to take a long-term approach."
"I admit that what you said makes some sense, but there is water down here, and people can't last long in the water. If we are still here to think about it, the fat man will be dead before we can think of a solution."
"But……"
"Don't worry, although I, Wang Fo, am not a big shot, nor a very good person, I have a principle. No matter what the circumstances, I will never abandon my companions, especially the fat man who I have already
I will definitely save the few friends and people I have. If there is any accident, I will bear it myself."
"Okay, since you insist on going down, I won't stop you, but you must be careful. I think there is a big problem with that big cauldron. You must be careful not to fall into a trap."
We quickly returned to the bottom of the water. There was no change in the Zhenlong Platform. The bark pipe was still hanging in the water. I stretched my head to look at the cauldron, but it was still empty. Then I looked around again and finally saw some differences.
An unusual place. This big cauldron is different from what we have seen before. Its four tripod legs are very short and thick, and they have basically sunk into the stone platform, causing the belly of the cauldron below to be completely attached to the stone.
On stage.
The cauldron was empty all around, so there couldn't be anything strange. The most likely thing was that it was close to the bottom of the stone platform. Like the fat man, I climbed into the cauldron, groped carefully underneath, and soon discovered that
There is a gap around the bottom. It seems that this should be something like a door. The fat man must have entered through it, but I don't know how the fat man opened it yet.
I tried pushing hard, but it had no effect. I knocked and there was no response. Just when I wanted to go out and see if there were any clues outside, as soon as I got up, I hit something on my back and was hit.
My body ached, but my feet suddenly became suspended in the air.
When I looked down, I saw that the bottom of the cauldron seemed to have fallen off, and there was a dark hole, with bubbles coming out from inside. The hole did not go straight down, but extended sideways at an angle, making it look very deep.
appearance.
Do I want to go in? I was struggling in my heart. The tube above can only go up to this point. If I want to go down, there will not be much time left for me. It is very likely that I will be suffocated to death in this hole in the end.
I was hesitating and struggling, and I said it better above, but when the time comes, my courage slips away like a broken ball.
It suddenly occurred to me that Fatty rarely does things that are uncertain. He seems to have gone down by himself. If things don't work out, he will definitely come back. If he hasn't come back now, it can only mean that he is either trapped or has found a place to live.
