Zhang Yuanqing and others came to the mouth of the pool. The water was clear but bottomless, like a blue-black full moon embedded in a cave.

Brother Red Chicken stepped lightly on the rotten waterwheel and looked around:

"What's the problem here?"

"By the way, it should be time for dinner. I wonder if there are any fish in the pond. Let's go down and take a look. Maybe we can have some sashimi. Wow, it's delicious."

But there must not be any fish, because after lunch, afternoon tea is not far away. What if this guy wants to eat the New Year's tea when the boss is halfway through being beaten... Zhang Yuanqing complained in his heart.

Guan Ya said: "There is no secret passage in the entire cave, so this pool of water is a possibility for Sui Yi."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded suddenly, "You mean, the entrance to the next level is under the pool?"

Guan Ya ignored him.

Princess Yin Yao's heart moved: "The entrance is under the pool?"

Guan Ya exclaimed in admiration: "How clever."

Qiang Yuan didn't say anything.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Brother Red Chicken took out a fish-skin tanned coat and put it on, "Let's get into the water. I also have a water ghost prop now. It cost me five million."

He was talking to Xiahou Aotian and Yuanshi Tianzun.

Back then in the sea of ​​Yashan, I borrowed diving props from Yin Ji.

"I'll let the corpse go down and explore the way first," Zhao Chenghuang took out the bronze box, opened the lid, and a water-attributed corpse jumped out and dived into the pool.

"White waves and foam rolled, and the calm water suddenly became turbulent. The Inferi swam like an agile fish, swaying its body and rushing to the bottom of the pool."

Zhao Chenghuang closed his eyes and focused on controlling the corpse.

Zhang Yuanqing looked at Sun Miaomiao, "Come to think of it, I didn't see you using the Yin Corpse along the way, didn't you bring it with you?"

"No!" Sun Miaomiao gave an affirmative answer.

Zhang Yuanqing was shocked: "I am very happy that you have such confidence in me, but isn't this too frivolous?"

Sun Miaomiao rolled her eyes immediately. "I am not very talented in controlling corpses, but I have a high degree of compatibility with spirit servants, so I focus on training spirit servants."

Her eyes are big and round, and rare in that they are neither coquettish nor delicate. They have a childlike brightness and spirit, and she looks cute even when she rolls her eyes.

"Oh, so that's it." Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'm relieved and don't have to worry about you anymore."

Sun Miaomiao said angrily: "Why don't you care about me?"

"Why should she care about you?" It was not just one person who spoke. Xiaoyuan and Guanya asked in unison.

Sun Miaomiao was choked, snorted, and looked towards the pool of water.

In real life, she is a good girl who never quarrels, but if it were on the Internet, she would have already struck out hard, using a keyboard to let these two women know what a strong person is.

Princess Yin Yao folded the small trumpet, put it in her pocket, tugged at the corner of Zhang Yuanqing's clothes, and with a smile, motioned for him to let her step aside to talk.

Zhang Yuanqing followed her to the side, and Princess Yin Yao used the unique communication method of the Night Wanderer to whisper, "The evidence of their crimes has been recorded by the Elvis speaker. With this handle, you can drive them and control them. This is how my father controlled his followers back then."

After a pause, he said, "This trick is also effective for concubines."

Cyberbullying grandpa, cursing mom, giving dad birth control pills, these are nothing compared to anything else.

Zhang Yuanqing whispered, "Keep it safe. Wait and see how I control them later."

As he spoke, he glanced at his teammates and gained a deeper and clearer understanding of these friends.

Zhang Yuanqing was quite satisfied with this confession. Except for Brother Hongji who was in a gang and had done a lot of bad things, everyone else was fine.

Even Brother Hongji has gradually stopped getting involved in gang-related activities in recent years.

"You can only make a few bucks by lending money at high interest rates, and the side effects are so severe. My grandfather can just give me a few projects, which are enough for me to make a few small profits, and it's all clean money." This is what Brother Hongji said.

The second is Tianxia Guihuo. His problem is more serious. In the eyes of the Demon Eye King, the shame of the Fire Master should be forgiven by committing seppuku.

But the world is back and Sun Miaomiao

Unlike others, he was born into a common family, and if he wants to stand out, he must be covered in mud.

As a saint in a high position of power, he could not even afford a decent house in Songhai with the millions of dollars he gave and received in bribes. At most, he could use the money to improve his life, so Zhang Yuanqing thought it was okay.

Princess Yin Yao's red eyes lit up: "Did you give me the speaker for safekeeping?"

"Okay!" Zhang Yuanqing whispered, "But you and it must be within my sight. You can't take it with you outside my sight."

Princess Yin Yao nodded happily, then said suspiciously: "You are suddenly a little nice to me... We agreed that you should not expect me to sleep with you."

You have no chance, because you are cold.

Zhang Yuanqing didn't say any more to her and returned to the pond.

At this time, Zhao Chenghuang opened his eyes and said, "There is a passage under the water. There is no danger in the passage. It is connected to another pool of water. Outside the pool is a cave. There is a strange metal machine in the cave."

"There are two stone tablets standing by the pond. One is inscribed with 'Not Fate' and 'Not Happiness', and the other is inscribed with 'Serve the Country with Loyalty'."

Xiahou Aotian touched his chin and said, "Feiming means I don't believe in fate. My fate is determined by myself, not by God."

Brother Red Chicken was witty for once: "So Fei Le just doesn't believe in music?"

"Obviously not. Can you read more books?" Xiahou Aotian said disdainfully. "Music is just a representation. It's not the 'music' in 'music'. It refers to the ritual and music system. The ritual and music system is complicated and extravagant, costing people money and labor, and is inconsistent with the Mohist concept of frugality and frugal burial. So we must resist the ritual and music system."

"What does it mean to be loyal to the country?" Brother Hongji was not convinced.

Xiahou Aotian pondered for a moment, "Maybe... the smoke of war rises from the mountains and rivers to the north, the dragon rises and the horse neighs, the sword energy is as cold as frost? There is no such thing in Mohist thought, today..."

"Okay, shut up!" As the gang leader, Zhang Yuanqing interrupted the meaningless chatter and said, "City God Zhao, try using the corpse to see what kind of danger you will encounter."

Zhao Chenghuang nodded slightly and closed his eyes again.

After half a minute, he suddenly opened his eyes and said solemnly, "The Inferi has lost contact with me."

Zhang Yuanqing knew that for the Night Wandering God, this meant that the Yin corpse was destroyed, so he asked hurriedly, "What happened?"

Zhao Chenghuang's expression suddenly became a little strange: "I only saw the machine turning, and then my spirit returned. I don't even know what happened."

"This..." Zhang Yuanqing also became serious. Unknown dangers are the most terrifying.

Because you cannot take targeted precautions, when danger comes, you will die without knowing why.

Guan Ya, Xiao Yuan and the others also understood this truth, so they all looked a little serious. Only Brother Red Chicken was still fearless and full of fighting spirit. "Why don't we go down and take a look? There's no point in thinking about it here."

You know what, sometimes it’s hard to refute what a brainless person says…

But Zhao Chenghuang still felt that he should be cautious, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll try again." After that, another corpse jumped out of the bronze storage box and plunged into the pool.

Amidst the rippling of dense white bubbles, the Yin corpse paddled with its hands and feet a little clumsily and dived towards the bottom of the pool.

As everyone waited in silence, Zhao Chenghuang, who had his eyes closed, suddenly said, "I saw the corpse from before. It was beheaded and completely damaged."

Guan Ya immediately said: "Observe whether there are any hidden blades nearby, and observe whether there are any knife or sword marks at the place where the corpse died.

Sword and knife marks are like ballistics, and we can reversely infer the direction of the attack, but we have never found the location of the mechanism. "

"No..." Zhao Chenghuang frowned.

"Try to control the Yin corpse to get closer. This time, be careful and see clearly what the danger is." Tianxia Guihuo said.

Madoka and Asano Ryo watched in silence, intently.

Because of their occupations and nationalities, the two of them were incompatible with the small team, so they were silent throughout the journey.

Zhao Chenghuang kept his eyes closed and said "hmm".

Ten seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes, his mouth twitched a few times, and "disconnected again."

I took it, and this time I still didn't see where the danger came from, but I discovered a detail. "

"What details?" Zhang Yuanqing asked for everyone.

"The words on the metal machine seem to have changed."

"What characters?" Zhao Chenghuang's mouth twitched again: "I don't know ancient characters."

Everyone looked at Xiahou Aotian, who put his hands on his waist and raised his head: "Write it down."

Zhao Chenghuang took out a short blade from his bag and wrote a word on the mud beside the pond.

Everyone looked confused.

Xiahou Aotian said, "Oh," "Zhong Ding Wen, this word means dog."

"dog?"

Everyone was still confused.

Xiahou Aotian shrugged: "Anyway, this is what the word means."

"That's enough. I can't stand your procrastination any more. Let's get in the water!" Brother Red Chicken saw that it was all useless information and couldn't stand it anymore, so he dived into the pool.

Zhang Yuanqing thought for a moment and said, "Let's get started. There's no point in making blind guesses here. Zhao Chenghuang has already lost two Yin corpses. If we use more Yin corpses as cannon fodder, there will be no gain either. It will just be a waste of money."

He put on the Yin-Yang robe, jumped into the pool, and followed Brother Red Chicken into the water.

People near the pond took out water ghost props and jumped into the water one after another.

The water was cold and clear, with many dust-like microorganisms floating on it. Five meters down, the bottom of the pool was completely dark.

The gang members swung their waists lightly, riding the current, and went down, reaching the bottom of the pool after two or three minutes.

Zhang Yuanqing saw Brother Hongji's figure from afar. The brainless fire master was heading into a dark corridor.

He quickly caught up and entered the corridor with Brother Red Chicken one after the other. The corridor meandered upwards and reached the end in a few minutes.

"Splash!" Brother Red Chicken jumped out of the pool and looked around cautiously.

Zhang Yuanqing came out from behind him, pushed himself lightly at the edge of the pool, and jumped out of the pool.

Dark red flames rose up, and the moisture on his body made a "hissing" sound. Zhang Yuanqing was steaming his wet body while scanning the cave.

The cave is not too big, about twice the size of the "Jieyong" and "Minggui" caves.

In the center of the cave stands a three-meter-high metal machine with a heavy, bronze-cast square base that is one meter long, wide and high.

On the base stands a crescent moon cast in brass, like a crescent boat floating on the water.

Between the two pointed crescents, there is a brass ball the size of a soccer ball suspended, made up of small square pieces, like a Rubik's Cube.

Each small piece of the Rubik's Cube is printed with distorted bell and tripod script.

“Swish, swish…”

The sounds of water flowing out were heard one after another, and Guan Ya, Xiao Yuan and others jumped out of the pool one after another.

Tianxia Guihuo held down Xiahou Aotian and Zhao Chenghuang's shoulders, and evaporated the water with his outstanding fire control ability, while observing the scene in the cave.

"Steam the water." Zhang Yuanqing threw the Yin-Yang robe to Guan Ya.

"There really is 'Serve the Country with Loyalty'." Brother Red Chicken kicked the stone tablet and pointed at the metal machine in the distance, saying, "Is the danger coming from that thing?"

Xiaoyuan, who was always silent, suddenly said, "Not necessarily, it could be above." She pointed to the top of her head.

Everyone looked up and saw that the top of the cave was covered with dark holes the size of water tanks.

"Why?" Sun Miaomiao asked as she looked up.

"The two bodies died in different places," Madoka explained. "The first Inferi died below the hole, and the second Inferi died next to the machine."

"That makes sense." Sun Miaomiao nodded.

Guan Ya chuckled, "Both corpses were beheaded by sharp blades. If the danger came from above, there would be sword marks on the ground, but there were none, so the danger came from the metal machine."

Xiao Yuan glanced at her and said, "Whatever you say is what it is."

Guan Ya smiled wryly: "Thank you!"

"Ahem!" Zhang Yuanqing interrupted the "argument" at the right time and said, "City God Zhao, you can try to use the soldiers. The most important thing now is to find out the origin of this grotto.

Rules, its attack method, attack strength, etc.

Zhao Chenghuang immediately took out the bronze box, called out his spirit servant, and manipulated a bronze terracotta warrior to move closer.

Everyone stared at the terracotta warriors and waited patiently. At times like this, the benefits of having a Night Wanderer in the team became apparent. There are always cannon fodder who step on landmines.

The terracotta soldiers passed through the metal machine unimpeded and circled the cave without encountering any attacks.

This result left everyone confused and surprised.

"The corpse-blocking terracotta warriors will be attacked, but the terracotta warriors will not? What is the difference between the two?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.

"Terracotta warriors are dead objects, they are objects, and although corpses have no life, they are also living things." Sun Miaomiao's professional knowledge is still solid.

"What if I put you into Little Red Riding Hood and then use my ability to control objects to throw you over there?" Zhang Yuanqing suddenly had an idea.

He did it as he thought. He immediately took out Little Red Riding Hood and summoned Yichuan Mei. He used the spirit servant's ability to control objects to throw Little Red Riding Hood out.

Under the gaze of everyone, Little Red Riding Hood fluttered forward. When she passed by the metal machine, a "buzzing" sound suddenly came from inside the mechanical weapon.

And the sound of gears turning and connecting rods pushing.

Zhao Chenghuang warned in a deep voice: "That's the sound. It's about to attack."
