Chapter 1050: Dark River
Zhuanshan Leopard said with a bitter face: "My family really didn't inherit anything! I swear to God."
I said in a deep voice: "Then has your father told you anything? For example, what has he done before? What strange things have he encountered?"
"No!" Zhuan Shanbao said: "My father is just Mr. Bai, and he has never done anything big in his life..."
While Zhuanshan Bao was talking, a sudden flash of inspiration came to my mind: "I know, the way to open the mechanism is not in the Huang family, but in the half-said water ghost song."
I explained: "Who is Zhuanshan Leopard? After all, Zhuanshan Leopard is a bandit."
"The bosses in Huzi have the habit of hiding treasures. They don't know when their locks will be broken into the hands of others, so the bosses in Huzi will hide the treasures and keep them for a comeback."
"They also know that many things cannot be left in plain sight, otherwise they will have to be taken away sooner or later. What they leave to future generations is not necessarily a token or a map, but a secret clue."
I pointed into the water as I spoke: "See for yourselves, does the stone statue below look like a water ghost locked under the river?"
"And that temple. As long as a temple is built in the Northeast, no matter what is worshiped in it, it must be given an honorific title. Even if it is for ghosts, it must be called the Immortal Temple. According to the name in the Northeast, that temple should be the Narcissus Temple.
.It’s called Water Ghost Temple, which is a reminder in itself.”
"What the water ghost song says is: The water ghost sticks his head out and doesn't go into the river. The water ghost reaches out and doesn't touch the water. What if all the water ghosts come out?"
Ye Yang's eyes also lit up: "Why didn't I think of it? Go down and have a look!"
"I'll do it!" I swam right above the stone statue, took a deep breath, raised my hands in front of me, pressed my left hand on the back of my right palm, filled my arms with zhenqi, turned my body upside down and dived into the water, pressing against the top of the stone statue.
.
When my palms collided with the stone statue, the mud at the bottom of the river scattered under the shock of the true energy, and the water became chaotic, but I could clearly feel that I had pressed the stone statue into the mud.
.
After a while, the stone statue completely sank into the mud. Ye Yang and I began to withdraw a few meters away and looked at the river mixed with mud again.
I vaguely saw the stone statue that I had pressed into the bottom of the river. Like a drowning man sticking his head out of the mud, the river bed behind the stone statue suddenly shook violently, and an undercurrent rushed out from nowhere.
It rushed towards me and Ye Yang.
Driven by the current, the two of us turned around several times before breaking free from the control of the undercurrent and leaning towards the other bank: "Come over here, let's go ashore first."
Not long after the two of us climbed up the river bank with the mountain leopard following us, a second undercurrent followed.
I clearly saw that after the Qinghe River was instantly cut off by the torrent rushing out laterally, the two currents intersected and swirled in the river.
The stone statue that I pressed into the water should have already climbed out halfway. The meaning of "water ghost reaches out and does not touch the water" should be that when the stone statue is halfway out of the river bed, it should quickly come out of the water. In such a staggered and impacting current,
Among them, even a fish can easily be knocked unconscious, let alone a human being?
I stared at the water and said: "Get ready to go into the water! If my inference is correct, after all the stone statues emerge from the water, the water below will change direction and take the people in the water to another place."
Ye Yang whispered: "Why didn't I expect that the stone statue is actually the key placed next to the lock. Is the stone pillar below it the lock cylinder?"
I laughed and said, "You were misled by the chains tied to the stone statue. You thought that if you activated the chains, the stone statue would drag the iron rope forward like a horse and open the stone door hidden in the river bed, right?"
"Thank you for not trying. If you had, we might have been dead."
"When the other party misleads you, it actually leaves you with a killer move!"
Ye Yang looked at me sideways and said, "Don't you know how to open a lock?"
I smiled and said, "It's true that I don't know how to open locks, but I grew up in the mountains. The legends in the mountains of Northeast China must be indispensable for beards. My master also has friendship with the older generation Si Da Liang. I have heard more about these things than you!"
Ye Yang squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Hey!"
But Zhuan Shan Bao asked doubtfully: "Master, didn't you say that they should have been standing in the water when they stepped on the Golden Hall? Did they dare to go into the water?"
I pointed to the river with intertwined undercurrents and said, "Look below for yourself. Sometimes the center of the vortex is the safest place."
"I'm sure that the third time the water changes direction will be very short. They are carrying a coffin into the water, and it is easy to miss that time, so they can only risk waiting in the water. And..."
Before I could finish my words, the water flow changed direction and flowed back towards the water outlet.
"Get into the water!" I jumped into the water first.
The three of us were not burdened by the coffin. After entering the water, we rushed to the opposite side with the direction of the current.
At that time, I barely had time to look at the surrounding environment. I was like a piece of wood pushed forward by the water, rushing into a dark corridor with the current.
By the time my eyes lit up, I was already in a relatively gentle body of water.
