Chapter 218: Jiansuo Longjing
When the dragon's roar disappeared, the six contestants entered the cave.
Strange to say, it was clearly the sun rising outside during the day, but the light inside the cave was very dim, and the flashlight function of all mobile phones had to be turned on to see some.
Su Yunshao: "Daoist fellow Huixin came like this yesterday?"
Hui Xin shook her head: "It was almost dusk when the poor monk came yesterday, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with the dim light in the cave."
The anomaly in the cave made everyone's hearts, they slowed down, alerted their surroundings, and approached the center of the Suolongjing position little by little.
The twisting tens of meters distance forced the six of them to walk out for two minutes.
The end of the cave has come.
There is no opening on the top, so naturally there is no light coming in. In addition, the road in front of the cave is too winding and the light is not easy to penetrate, which makes the whole cave appear too dim.
After being vigilant for so long, no abnormality was found, and several people gradually felt relieved.
Those present have only heard of Suolongjing in the past, and few have seen it with their own eyes.
From the outside, it was just an ancient well with many traces of time. Because it was hidden in a cave and had not experienced the wind, sun and rain, it looked better than the ancient well that Shan’er immersed in.
Just considering the time of Shan'er's death, we know that the history of this Longjing Well is at least five or six hundred years old.
Suolongjing is tied by twelve thick iron chains, nine of which go deep into the wellhead. Above the wellhead is a solid stone cover that is hung up by iron chains, as if it can cover the wellhead at any time.
"The poor monk used the chains here yesterday to go down." Hui Xin pointed to the nine chains at the wellhead.
Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde stuck their heads out and looked into the wellhead. It was dark inside. They couldn't even see anything on the wall of the well, let alone how deep the well was.
At this moment, the dragon's roar came up from the bottom of the well again, and the sonic attack happened to hit the heads of the two of them.
Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde were stunned, their ears bleeding.
The others were some distance from the wellhead of Suolongjing, and they retreated in time when they found something wrong.
When Su Yunshao left, he pulled Qu Wuhua, and Hui Xin and Dong Jianbai also pulled Fang Youde away, which made their injuries less severe.
Seeing that her beloved disciple was injured before finding anything, Qi Honglian's face was really bad, but she also knew that it was just a small injury that could be cured after taking care of it.
"Thanks to Su Yunshao's quick response, otherwise my stupid apprentice would have to suffer more."
Yu Xianghe nodded: "My disciple is still a bit reckless, this time thanks to a collective action."
Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde are not considered reckless people. They just thought that there was a dragon roar just before entering the cave. It should not appear so frequently. glanced.
Who knew luck could be so bad?
This has to be replaced by Xiao Cheng and Feng Cheng, who are more impatient...they couldn't help but shiver.
As expected of the final of the Xuanmen Grand Competition, the difficulty is really high!
Hui Xin looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, the poor monk only encountered a dragon roar once when he came here yesterday, and I never expected that there would be two times today. It's the poor monk's fault."
Fang Youde's hearing was only affected, but he was not deafened. Hearing Huixin's words, he couldn't help but say, "You don't have to do this. If it wasn't for you, I would have suffered more than that."
Qu Wuhua knew what kind of person Huixin was. If he really knew that there would be a second dragon roar, he would never take them into the cave easily, so he wouldn't blame Huixin: "You don't need to blame yourself."
Then he looked at Su Yunshao gratefully, "Thank you Yunshao for saving me."
"You're welcome." Su Yunshao asked, "Although the incident happened suddenly, why didn't your two amulets work?"
This is what everyone finds strange.
Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde touched the talisman and came out, and found that the amulet was still intact, which was even more strange.
Logically speaking, the amulet is supposed to function when the master is threatened. How can the master be injured and the amulet still remains motionless?
If the failure of the talisman is not resolved, it is impossible for them to lock Longjing easily, especially the talus master Dong Jianbai.
Losing the talisman is equivalent to losing security, and letting him walk in a place where his life may be in danger at any time like an ordinary person, isn't that courting death?
Su Yunshao took out a fire talisman and threw it into the well.
The fire talisman, which was clearly detonated by her vitality, did not react at all, just like an ordinary piece of paper, under the action of gravity, it fluttered and fell into the well.
"The talisman is banned."
Dong Jianbai took out a thunder talisman, and after detonating it, waited for some lightning to appear on the thunder talisman before throwing it in.
The lightning that had appeared, disappeared in an instant, and ended up the same as Su Yunshao's fire talisman.
Six people present: "…"
Everyone watching the live broadcast: "…"
Su Yunshao suggested: "Why don't you stay behind this pad for a while, let's go down to investigate first?"
This is already the best choice for Dong Jianbai, who has been banned from the talisman. Just letting him retreat as a big man is really hurting his self-esteem.
"...I see." Dong Jianbai closed his eyes reluctantly.
In fact, Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde, whose hearing is affected, are not suitable for it either.
However, there were only six people participating in the finals this time, Dong Jianbai stayed on top, if the two of them didn't go on, they could only hand over everything to Su Yunshao, Hui Xin, and Luo Xunlu.
If the clues related to the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk are found in Suolong Well, the top three will be taken over by the three of them. How can Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde be willing?
Qu Wuhua injected vitality into the fan, and a small whirlwind floated out of the fan, floated above the lock dragon well, and then slowly sank and then sank under her control.
"The treasure is not banned, I will go too."
Fang Youde sent a ghost envoy to explore the way, and the ghost envoy stayed above Suolongjing for a long time without feeling any threat, "Ghosts can enter, I will go too."
The two wiped the blood from their ears, and together with Su Yunshaohui and Luo Xunlu, grabbed the iron chain that locked the Longjing and went down the well.
Dong Jianbai, who was left alone, did not lose his fighting spirit.
He clicked on the live link of this Xuanmen competition, and watched the situation under the lock of Longjing through the cameras and microphones on the other five contestants.
Although his people did not go down, they were able to help the five of them in this way.
Seeing this, Qi Honglian praised: "Suddenly losing the biggest weapon and support, skipping the process of shock and disappointment and quickly realizing that my ability is limited, instead of being strong, I immediately accept and seek the best effort I can do. Sect master, you have a good son."
Dongyuan is naturally proud. Today, if anyone is in a situation like Dong Jianbai's most powerful weapon, he may not be able to be like him.
"The dog is still young, and the master of Qimen is too famous."
The judges smiled and ignored his self-effacing.
At the other end, the five people slid down the chain while being alert to the dragon roar that might come out at any time.
I don't know if they were lucky, or if Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde were really unfortunate, but the two of them met when they probed.
Qu Wuhua glanced at Su Yunshao, and muttered strangely, "Could it be that they are treated differently?"
She didn't know why, but she always felt that the reason why she didn't encounter the dragon's roar this time was probably because she came down with Su Yunshao.
Not to mention, there are many people who think like her.
Fang Youde is one, so is Dong Jianbai, and Gu Ze is even more convinced of this.
- A person with profound luck and merit must be something special.
Su Yunshao could guess a little from the eyes of Qu Wuhua and Fang Youde, but he couldn't help laughing.
She has never been a European emperor, and even if she has such illusory luck, it is all on the goblin cub, and she has nothing to do with this five- or six-hundred-year-old Suolongjing.
Even if they want to use her as a talisman, if they are in any danger, her talisman can't be used, at most they can save them with her skill and thunder sword.
Su Yunshao bent down to pick up the Fire Talisman and Thunder Talisman that had fallen on the ground, but just when his fingertips touched it, the two yellow Talismans all collapsed into ashes.
Not sure if the two yellow talismans were destroyed because they were used, she took out another fire talisman from her bag. The talisman, which was still in good condition, collapsed immediately after being injected with vitality, without even a trace of sparks appearing.
This time, Dong Jianbai, who was watching the live broadcast in the cave, had no luck at all - he originally thought that the use of talismans might not be banned under the Suolong Well, and he could go down again.
As a result, he was a little worried about Su Yunshao.
So far, he has only seen Su Yunshao's talent in Fu Lu, and such excellent ability has been disabled, and he doesn't know if she can deal with the unknown danger below.
On the green hill, the judges are discussing the strange situation encountered by the contestants.
Qi Honglian: "Do you guys know where in this world talismans are banned?"
Hengshu: "Pindao only knows that there are formations that have such effects, but judging from the current situation of the decline of Xuanmen, there are very few people who can deploy such a large-scale formation."
Hengping: "It is recorded in the ancient books of the sect that thousands of years ago, there were many places in the world with natural restrictions. Some of them could not use spiritual power, and some would devour spiritual power.
Gao Ran: "So, this formation was probably created by someone when the spiritual energy was in full swing?"
Dongyuan: "Nowadays, everyone in Xuanmen cultivates vitality. Although spirit and vitality are similar, they are not the same system. I don't know if these children can identify them."
Yu Xianghe: "If it is a natural prohibition left over thousands of years ago, these children will suffer."
If you really want to encounter something left over thousands of years ago, few of them may not be able to solve it, let alone a few children in their teens and twenties.
The judges couldn't help but feel a little worried, but retreating when they encountered a little difficulty was not the style of people in Xuanmen, so they had to hold back this worry and continue to watch.
At this moment, they were very fortunate that they had temporarily changed the rules and returned their mobile phones to the players.
Under the Suolong Well, a group of people groped and checked by the weak light of the flashlight.
Qu Wuhua originally wanted to use the fan to make a fireball to illuminate it, but he was afraid that it would be useful to have vitality in the future, so he saved it.
The cave above Suolongjing is not big, but the bottom is extremely empty. According to the distance they slid down the iron cable, it is likely to be built by hollowing out the interior of the mountain.
There is no stink and musty smell caused by humidity and lack of air circulation in the underground, and there are a few breezes passing by from time to time, but it is not the wind from up and down, which means that there is another outlet here.
The place where they are located is a large disc made of many rectangular stone bricks, with a diameter of about 20 meters. There are twelve stone statues around, which are the busts of the twelve zodiac signs. The stone bricks at the bottom are carved on them. With some lines and symbols, the outermost disk is surrounded by grooves.
Luo Xunlu was the first to recognize it: "It's just ordinary five-element gossip, no vitality."
Su Yunshao shined the light of the flashlight on the trench and saw the growth of moss, "I have drained the water in recent years."
Huixin: "Last year, there were several torrential rains in Baimei Mountain, and the water levels of lakes and rivers in the scenic area soared. It should have been used for drainage at that time."
Fang Youde was very surprised when he heard the words: "Is there anyone here?"
Su Yunshao and Luo Xunlu searched around, but couldn't find any buttons or devices. Recalling that there were no switches and devices above the lock dragon well, "This should be a setting that automatically turns on the drainage function when the water volume is too high."
Qu Wuhua praised: "The wisdom of the ancients really should not be underestimated."
After confirming that there is no abnormality in this place, the group followed the passage to the next location.
Hui Xin had already been here once and took them to the part of the area he had explored first, "The poor monk only investigated a very small part yesterday, and he has not seen the whole picture yet, and I don't know what the formation and strangeness are here, fellow Daoists. Be careful."
Without the slightest bit of strangeness, it is impossible for Fu Lu to be banned here.
But if there is anything strange, Huixin stayed here for so long yesterday, without finding it and without danger.
Among the five, Luo Xunlu and Su Yunshao were the ones who knew the formation the most. They used the light of the flashlight to check the surrounding walls and ornaments. The others helped to light up and look for suspicious signs.
Passing through one narrow passage after another, what appeared in front of them was a rock wall carved with many figures and utensils.
Hui Xin spent a lot of time looking at all the patterns yesterday, and now she led them to look at it from the beginning, "This is the scene when the Lock Dragon Well was built."
I don’t know how many years ago, there was a continuous torrential rain, the mother river burst its banks, fertile fields were flooded, houses were destroyed, and the people on both sides of the river suffered from the flood.
The woman read ancient books, visited talented people and scholars, and found the design drawings and construction methods of Suolongjing.
At that time, the method of flood control was still based on dredging and building dams. How could anyone believe that building a lock dragon well would be able to drain water and avoid flood damage?
The woman patiently explained to the villagers the use of the Longjing lock, but no one believed her.
Most people were unwilling to trust her and help her because of her status as a woman. Even her family, friends, and fiancé advised her to forget it and stop doing useless work.
At that time, the woman was fourteen years old, she was engaged, and she was about to get married.
In order to build Suolongjing, she postponed the wedding date and lobbied the squires and rich people everywhere, hoping that they could pay and help to build it together, so as to solve the problem of the flood as soon as possible.
However, her dedication and hard work did not bring everyone's understanding.
Her fiancé broke up with her, married her concubine sister quickly, and gave birth to a big fat boy the next year.
Since then, the woman has completely rested her thoughts of marriage, and devoted all her energy to Suolongjing.
She traveled all over the mountains and rivers, found like-minded people, and found countless skilled craftsmen to dig holes in mountains, dig canals and wells.
The woman was originally a pampered boudoir girl. For many years, she slept in the open air, exhausted her energy, and lost the support of her family. She had no money to support her, and her body had long since fallen into disrepair.
The day when Suolongjing was built was also her death.
That year, the Mother River burst its banks again, and only the area of Baimei Mountain was not affected.
The villagers remembered what the woman had said and done, and regretted not listening to her advice, but the woman at that time had already become a dead bone, and even the bones were collected with the help of friends and craftsmen.
Later generations remembered her kindness and described her deeds on this rock wall.
The craftsman of the drawing never recorded the surname of this strange woman, only her first name: Yunle.
Qu Wuhua, who was also a woman, was the most shocked and exclaimed: "There are such strange women in the world!"
Huixin: "This is to cross ten thousand people with the power of one person, and the merit is immeasurable."
When it comes to merit, everyone can't help but look at Su Yunshao, a model of infinite merit in reality, who happens to have a "cloud" in her name.
Su Yunshao: ? ? ?
