Chapter 256: Courage to die, cowardly to starvation
The big head who was urged by Ding Xiaoyi to climb out of the box looked frightened and restless, and his body was still trembling.
I haven't recovered from the scene I saw before.
"Don't be afraid, it's all fake."
Ding Xiaoyi patted Big Tou's head to comfort it.
When Datou saw his master, he comforted himself and burst into tears.
(?д?): “Afraid!”
His head was rubbing in Ding Xiaoyi's arms, and his nose and tears were all over his body.
Ding Xiaoyi comforted him softly, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart what on earth this guy had seen to be so frightened.
After a moment of comfort, Datou recovered from his panic.
He took out the [Psychic Staff] in his hand and summoned the big eyeball again.
The big eyes flashed their wings, circled around the stone tablet, and then quickly rushed into the underworld.
With the help of the vision of big eyes, the world in front of me is dim and dull.
Waves of strange and eerie whispers were heard all around.
These sounds sounded like songs at first, then poems, but later they sounded more like shrill screams, making people's skin crawl.
I should have known that there were many strange sounds in the underworld, just like the [Sound Bead] in my hand.
However, there is more than just one [Sound Bead] under the underworld, there are many similar things that make strange sounds to attract prey.
Of course, if you are unlucky and attract some big shots, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
Under the water, you can see the unfathomable roots of this ancient tree, firmly rooted under the deep yellow spring.
However, what makes people speechless is that these roots are also imprinted with various facial makeup.
Obviously, in the later stages, more and more creatures rushed here.
In order to gain insight into one's own cause and effect and get a hint of a major turning point, I have used every inch of this ancient tree that can be used.
Until the ancient tree dies and no longer grows.
At this time, he discovered that the stone monument was not very deep, but stood on a huge root, only less than a meter deep from the water.
This discovery undoubtedly deepened his desire to take the stone tablet away.
At this time, the meat ball detached from his hand, rolled on the ship's board, and jumped directly into the underworld.
The big head is impermeable to water, but the meat ball is the complete opposite.
It itself is a creature in the underworld and is called an iron mayfly.
It has long been instinct to know the nature of water and survive in the underworld.
As soon as he entered the underworld, the meat ball became more active than usual, and his body quickly stretched out, revealing his strong body.
I don’t know if it’s because of Mr. Chen.
After the meat ball truly revealed its original body this time, it was actually two or three times bigger than when he first saw it.
I'm afraid that among the many iron mayflies, Meat Ball's body can definitely be called fat and strong.
At this time, the meat ball began to poke out its tentacles. The front end of the tentacles was like a small shovel, and it pierced the tree stems under the stone monument and cut open the wood wrapped around the stone monument.
The big head on the ship's board began to wrap its thick and powerful tentacles around the stone tablet.
Shake vigorously.
One is shaking at the top and the other is digging at the bottom.
With the cooperation of the two, the stone tablet began to loosen.
"Gululu..."
Under the stone tablet, a string of water bubbles emerged.
Soon I saw a slender tentacle sticking out from under the water.
The cooperation between the big head and the meat ball has been perfected for a long time. There is no need to communicate at all. They immediately stretched out their tentacles, and immediately tightened the tentacles and began to pull up hard.
Ding Xiaoyi stood aside, actually feeling unsure.
After all, this stone monument has been here for so many years. I don’t know who erected it here. It’s still unclear whether it can be moved.
Fortunately, the two cooperated, and after a piece of yellow mud rolled up at the bottom of the stone monument, it was actually moved.
Although the stone monument looks huge, it is actually lighter than expected.
The big head can even easily roll the stone tablet up from the water.
The stone tablet was pulled onto the board of the boat, which was longer than the Chiki boat.
Now Ding Xiaoyi smiled happily and started groping carefully on the stone tablet.
This is definitely a treasure.
The hardness is no less than that of Xuantong Beast's claws, but the weight is frighteningly light.
Just because of this treasure, I will make a lot of money this time I go to sea.
At least it's not much worse than the income from traveling to sea by yourself.
Even the time wasted in digging for the Chi Kissing Boat the previous two times was earned back.
"Huh!"
At this moment, with the help of my big eyesight, I discovered that something seemed wrong under the stone monument.
Controlling the big eyes, he came up to take a look.
I saw an empty space under the tree roots, neither big nor small.
Compared to all the facial masks around, this place is uncharacteristically clean.
Thinking of the stone tablet just now, I couldn't help but take a deep breath of air.
After a while, Ding Xiaoyi started to complain: "The guy who built the monument is such a fucking thief!"
Everyone has seen the story "There is no three hundred taels of silver here" in primary school textbooks.
But no one would have thought that there is an open space hidden under this stone monument.
Whether it's big or small, it's enough to impress three people's faces with ease.
Ding Xiaoyi estimated that the person who erected the monument found that the ancient tree was dying and would not grow again, so he hurriedly left a large stone monument.
People who came later probably subconsciously thought of Wangcai as the same thing.
I was attracted by the ancient tree in front of me and the content on the stone tablet.
So much so that no one thought that there was an open space hidden under the stone monument.
Ding Xiaoyi told Wangcai the following situation.
Wangcai was stunned for a while and then burst into laughter.
I guess the person who erected the monument had to occupy a space for emergencies since he didn't need it himself.
But he couldn't send someone to guard this place, nor could he cut it off and take it back himself.
So he set up a stone tablet and told the story of the sacred tree in front of him in a tone of blame and regret, expressing the greed of the world.
As a result, who would have thought that there is a private plot hidden under the stone monument.
It would be true to say that this person has great wisdom.
But the great wisdom used such a method to instantly make people think that erecting monuments is too stupid.
If it weren't for my master, who has a sharp eye and a blessed soul, he would have pried the stone tablet open.
If it were me, I would just sigh for this, walk around in a circle without giving up, and then turn around and leave.
"Master, this is a great opportunity. It is a God-given opportunity to be able to understand a major turning point in one's life!"
Wangcai soon realized that this opportunity was once in a lifetime.
They are like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.
I don't know how many people have broken their heads fighting for the place below.
How could he let go of such a good opportunity when it appeared in front of him in vain now.
"But the tree is dead, I don't know if it will still have any effect."
Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel worried.
But Wangcai had no scruples: "Don't listen to the nonsense on the stone tablet, just try it with a mirror and you will know!"
Before, Wangcai believed what was written on the stone tablet.
But now, I feel that the person who set up the stone monument may have impure motives.
At this time, take a photo with [Looking into the Mirror] and the truth will be revealed immediately.
What Wangcai said makes sense.
The words on the stone tablet were just one-sided words. I didn’t need to pay attention to them before because I didn’t need them.
It's different now.
When I came out this time, I prepared quite a lot of things. I basically brought everything I could bring.
Even the poor old man wore the protective jade pendant he lost to him earlier, just to worry about any accidents.
At this time, search for the [Looking Mirror] and point it at the stone monument in front of you.
After looking at the dog eyes behind the mirror for a few times.
The answers given are basically the same as those on the stone tablet.
But there is one difference.
[In the deep north of Huangquan, there is a sacred tree, nine thousand feet tall. Its crown covers the sky, and its roots are buried in the deep earth. It calls for orders and prays.
Passers-by leaving their faces on the trees can use divine power to understand cause and effect and turn things around.
It attracted living beings to fight for it, and its spiritual roots were cut off by others.
As a result, the sacred tree stopped growing, gradually lost its place, and no one cared about it.】
The meaning of Zhaoyoujing is that the tree has been cut off from its roots and no longer grows, but it is not dead as the stone tablet says.
These two meanings are worlds apart.
The former means that the tree dies and disappears, so logically speaking, it is useless to leave one's own mark.
The latter means that the tree has grown again, but the tree has not died and the divine power is still there.
Needless to say, the words on the stone tablet were probably deliberately misleading others.
If it's really useless, why bother taking up a space for yourself?
Think of this.
Ding Xiaoyi pointed the [Looking Mirror] at the stone tablet at his feet to see what the origin of this stone tablet was.
[Blood sea stone marrow, this object only exists at the source of the blood sea, is often held by Shura, it can ward off evil and evil, protect people from scheming, and kill people without karma. The wearer will be detrimental to morality, and thunderstorms cannot appear in the world, fearing
To offend God.]
“You’ve made a profit, you’ve made a profit!”
After listening to Zhao Youjing's words, Ding Xiaoyi smiled from ear to ear.
Although this thing is suspected of being a lightning rod.
But the meaning of Zhao Youjing seems to be very awesome.
As for the exact efficacy, you can take it back yourself and let Old Man Zao and the others identify it.
But the current question is, since the sacred tree is still effective, should I take the risk and try it?
After all, I have to leave Chikishu.
Only by diving under the Yellow Spring can you reach that place.
Although it is not deep, it is still an adventure.
However, the benefits are so amazing that if I just give up, thinking back on it, I might even regret it.
Think about it.
Ding Xiaoyi's controller looked around a wide circle with his big eyes, and made sure that the surrounding area was peaceful.
Gritting his teeth: "The brave will starve to death, and the timid will starve to death. I am not willing to take this risk. I might as well lie down and sleep at home!"
This is like watching the education class of the Yamato clan, and I am so hungry that I can't bear it.
It happens that not far from my home is the red light district.
As a result, when he ran over and saw the seductive looks of the young ladies in front of the door, he actually gave up.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have done it at home. Why would I go out?
After figuring out the key, Ding Xiaoyi became bolder.
Let Datou wait on the Chiki boat.
He took the meat ball with him and looked at the turbid underworld in front of him. He gritted his teeth, jumped up and plunged into the underworld.
