Chapter 14 The Secret of the Treasure (2)
The river of red algae has faded, and what is revealed in front of them is a flawless blue sea, like the most beautiful sapphire. They drifted on the red algae all night, and now the sun is shining on the sea, bringing a trace of beautiful color to the sea.
A water column was surging high above the sea, about a hundred meters high. The water flow outside the water column was squirting down like a waterfall, splashing huge waves, reflecting colorful colors in the sun.
Yi Xiao could only vaguely see the shadow of the island at the top of the water column, which seemed to be the destination of their trip.
"That's it!" Vilian seemed even more excited. She was restless and couldn't help but look for it. "How can we get up?" she turned around and asked, but found that Yi Xiao was no longer by her side.
Not far away, "He is dead." Yi Xiao said to James and the others. James hugged Little Al's body, dazed and didn't know what he was thinking, "I never thought that someone would die." He shook his head.
Yi Xiao looked at him quietly, "I will explain to the customs." He said, "Now I'm going up. I hope you'll wait for us below. Although I don't know how to go back yet, there will always be a solution."
"You have a way to go up." Vilian kept following Yi Xiao.
"Well, the peak that seems unattainable should refer to height. Give me your hand and I'll take you up." Yi Xiao calculated the height of the water column and chose the position.
"I'll go too." James suddenly interrupted.
Yi Xiao glanced at him and nodded.
...
Yi Xiao moved directly to the top of the water column. After the short distance of compression and twisting, Vilian and James both retching. "The wizard's journey is really unpleasant." Vilian's little face wrinkled.
Yi Xiao was quietly looking at the land. The road paved with green stone slabs was a little old, and even in such a humid environment above the water column, it was still covered with dust.
Not far away, there is a magnificent stone pillar arched door. The two pillars are earthy yellow. You can also vaguely see the traces of the stone gate crossing a beautiful arc at the junction of the apex to connect the two stone pillars.
However, they had collapsed, and gravel was scattered around. Looking up, there was only a dilapidated hall still supporting it with difficulty. Other buildings such as springs or gardens were already dilapidated.
Verian walked forward, "it looked like a post-Roman style." She carefully observed the styles of these buildings, "it was the English style of the early Merlin era, when the influence of Rome had not been completely eliminated."
Yi Xiao didn't say anything, and looked around quietly. He felt a daunting aura in the hall.
Verian and James began to move forward carefully to the hall. Yi Xiao followed a few steps. He always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Soon a few people touched the front door of the hall. The door of the hall was not closed and was covered in vain. Yi Xiao knocked on his fingers, used invisibility techniques for the several people, and began to move into the hall.
As soon as they entered the main hall, they were stunned. The main hall was empty, but the piles of gold coins and jewelry were piled together, with almost no place to get off. The irregular bulge of the tall pile of gold coins not far away blocked the scene in front.
Yi Xiao was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and directly used petrochemical techniques on the two people behind him.
"Don't make a sound, there's something here that makes me feel scared, and these gold coins are also not right. Let's study it first and move on to the next step."
After Yi Xiao said that, he paused for a while and untied the spell. Vilian and James were not ignorant of the generalities. James had become very nervous after this series of things.
Several people quietly walked through the pile of gold coins. James did not rush to hold gold coins in his arms. He remembered the cursed treasures in the legendary story. Even the wizards really existed. So who knows what these gold coins will be like!
Yi Xiao picked up a few gold coins casually. The three of them did not leave the hall, but found behind a stone pillar supporting the hall. Yi Xiao looked at the gold coins in his hand, and he felt the magic breath on it.
The gold coins flipped a few times in Yi Xiao's hand and turned into a naughty stone. Vilian and James were both looking at him. Yi Xiao lowered his head and thought for a while, "I'm afraid this is not Merlin's ruins." He said
"What!?" Vilian couldn't help but cry. "Why do you say that?"
"These gold coins are transformed from stones, and the way this magic is used is different from mine. Most of our wizard's magic comes from Merlin. Since it is different, I'm afraid this is the territory of another wizard." Yi Xiao pondered for a while.
"Morgana." Yixiao said, "This is her territory."
...
Yi Xiao now knew why the ring warned, and it turned out that this was not the ruins of Merlin.
"What is guarding here?" Vilian had already taken out her whip.
"Thinking of this..." Yi Xiao was slowly explaining his discovery. James suddenly interrupted, "Dragon!"
"Ah, yes. It's a dragon. These gold coins should be Morgana deceived the dragon. Maybe it's used to guard something. It seems that the dragon's IQ is not too high." Yi Xiao looked at James in surprise, and before he could react to why he suddenly became smart.
"No..." Vilian said slowly in a hoarse voice, "I think he should be talking about this..."
Yi Xiao had an unknown premonition when he heard Vilian's words. He turned around and saw a huge blue-gray dragon standing upright, and staring at them motionlessly through the stone pillar.
"Roar..." The dragon made a low voice, beating everyone's heart in the empty hall.
"It's the dragon's words!" Yi Xiao said inappropriately, "The pronunciation of the four Latin sentences in Latin has the same vowel sound as the pronunciation just now."
Verian saw that the dragon's head had already flashed with red light, "Now is not the time to talk about this! Go away!!!"
She pushed James violently, then grabbed Yi Xiao and rolled to the other side of the stone pillar.
The dragon's violent breath burned the stone slabs, and the hot air almost suffocated Yi Xiao and the others to death. Verian could almost feel her hair becoming anxious and curled up.
"Frost." Yi Xiao took a breath, and the surrounding temperature dropped instantly.
Soon, the dragon breath stopped, and seized the opportunity, Yi Xiao and Vilian quickly rushed out of the dragon breath range. The dragon let out an angry roar, and its huge body rose up, shaking the gravel in the hall fell one after another. Yi Xiao saw James being hit by a stone and didn't know what to do.
During the breathing, the dragon caught up with Yi Xiao and the others, but they also saw the scene of the hall that was just blocked by the dragon.
A stone stairs lie quietly in the depths of the hall, with a cane and an open book floating on it.
Verian and Yi Xiao looked at each other, "You go get the things, I'll hold it up."
