I tapped the main tripod lightly and said: "Old Liu, Zhao Zhuang, do you have any other clues about Jiuding in your village?"

The reason why I asked Zhao Zhuang to sail in the direction of the seven ancient trees on the river was because I deduced that the ancient trees imitated a certain formation.

In the art of magic, any formation is not a dead object. Even if it seems to be a fixed object, such as a formation composed of stones and trees, there is still a flow of "qi" in it. Those seven ancient trees are just dead objects.

My inference at the time was that the Seven Star Formation only imitated the form of a certain formation and did not copy the formation to the village.

When the warship came out of the water, half of the river was covered with water, but there was only one area of ​​water that seemed unusually calm. I visually checked the location of that area of ​​water, and the distance from there to Shuiwozi was roughly the same as Yulu Village. The water rippled.

I could also see the flow of earth energy between them, so I made the judgment to sail according to the direction of the seven ancient trees.

My initial judgment was not wrong, but when I arrived at the entrance of the underground palace, why was I blocked here?

Zhao Zhuang hesitated and said: "I heard that when the tree was planted, something seemed to be buried under the tree. But no one said what was buried specifically?"

Old Liu Tou also said: "There is a rule in our village that you are not allowed to enter the underground sewers. As for why no one has said anything about it."

I looked at the main tripod and lowered my head in thought for a long time: "Now, we need to make a bet. If we win the bet, we will enter the underground palace. If we lose the bet, we will not be able to get out. Do you want to bet?"

Old Liu Tou gritted his teeth and said: "Now that we have reached this point, what else can we not dare to gamble on? Mr. Li, do it!"

I pulled out the knife, raised my hand and slashed at the main cauldron. The nearly inch-thick cauldron was torn apart on the spot by two magic weapons like a piece of paper. The main cauldron was broken into three pieces and scattered on the ground. There was no trace in the underground palace.

any changes.

Old Liu waited for a long time before saying: "Mr. Li, did we make the wrong bet?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know either. If you wait a little longer, maybe you can see the result."

A moment later, the river water behind me suddenly rose up. The layers of river water spread towards the steps at an alarming speed. In less than a moment, they rushed to my feet.

The four of us fell back continuously and passed the position where the main cauldron was broken. We were forced to the end of the stairs by the current.

As soon as I crossed the main cauldron, I felt a heart-stopping pressure crushing me from the stairs, as if a wild beast was waiting for us to approach at the end of the stairs.

Old Liu Tou was the first to be unable to bear the pressure: "Mr. Li, let's not go up yet. There seems to be something up there." Old Liu Tou would rather go into the water than climb the stairs again.

"Keep going! Until the water can't catch up with us." As I desperately resisted the pressure from above and kept rushing forward, Zhao Zhuang suddenly shouted: "The fish is catching up!"

When I turned around, I happened to see the black fish showing its dorsal fin and horns from the water. The black fish rushed in from the outside. Although it surfaced, it made no next move. It seemed to be waiting for an opportunity to move or waiting for an order.

"We made the right bet!" I raised my voice while standing up: "My friends in the underground palace, why don't you come out to meet me?"

Not long after I finished speaking, I saw a woman in costume with a pale face appearing on the stone steps by the water - that woman was the water ghost I had been tracking.

The water ghost gently stroked the horns of the black fish: "I told you to listen to me, but you just didn't listen. Otherwise, how could you be hurt so badly?"

Heiyu trembled slightly, as if expressing his grievances.

The water ghost softly comforted Heiyu for a few words before standing up and saying, "Li, do you know what you did?"

I said with a half-smile: "It's nothing more than trapping us in the underground palace. I can't get out, and you can't get out either. Am I right?"

"You..." The water ghost gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't want to live anymore, haven't you thought about whether the people in Yulu Village are alive or dead?"

I responded: "I trapped you in the underground palace so that you couldn't make trouble. How could the people in Yuzhu Village die? In fact, I am also very curious about your current attitude. You are about to die here. How do you still feel about it?

Are you going to care about other people’s lives?”

The water ghost suddenly smiled and said: "I don't worry about myself because I have a backup plan. I can come to this place whenever I want and leave whenever I want. What about you?"

I stared at the water ghost closely and said, "You should be able to get out of this place, but it's impossible to come back in."

I said in a deep voice: "The eight ghost cauldrons have returned to their positions, and the formation to block the underground palace has been activated again. This time, there is no water guard camp to risk your life to get the cauldron. After you go out, can you still come in?"

The water ghost was slightly startled and said, "I don't know what you are talking about?"

I laughed in a low voice: "It doesn't matter if you don't know what I'm talking about. I can explain it to you slowly. However, this is not the way to treat guests right here! You don't plan to find a place.

Let’s sit down and talk slowly?”

The water ghost's eyes turned red and he said, "You are thinking too beautifully."
