Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 42: Phases of the Moon

Behind him is a coffin that stretches for an unknown number of miles, while in front of him is also a rectangular black shadow that can't be seen. It hits people's hearts.

Just when the mountain wall at the top needs to look up, the seemingly endless front finally has light, but it is a halo that ripples with the waves, and the ripples continue to gather and disperse.

Where does the light come from on this crowded water surface?No, it should be said that there is no light in this dark underground.

The four stopped, looked at each other for a moment, and then walked towards the halo.The strange thing is that the closer you get to the halo, the water surface gradually becomes wider - instead of the coffin, there are dense layers of ropes covering the bottom of the water. The bouncing feeling of the car has to make people sigh that there are so many of them, enough to pave a flat ground.

Countless ropes spread out in all directions, and the center of them was where the ray of light was.When they got closer, the four people were surprised to find that the light was actually a full moon!

The four of them raised their heads subconsciously, only to see a pitch-black stone wall above, with no holes for light to enter, and...

Xia Yi wondered, "It's only afternoon, where did the full moon come from?" Not to mention that today is not the [-]th day, just the moon appearing under the big sun is not real in itself.

Circles of ripples spread out, and the huge basin-like moon floated with the waves. The four people around the reflection in the water fell into deep thought. Where did the full moon, which was obviously a reflection, come from?And the strangest thing is that under the halo of the moon, nothing can be seen.

If it is just a general reflection in the water, it will not cover the underwater things, and the moon halo in front of you, you can't see the extremely clear and shallow bottom of the water, only the full moon, the faint light is like a curtain. everything in the water.

Xie Yi leaned down, stretched out his hand to look down through the full moon, but for a moment, he felt a little surprised and groped around until he reached his feet.

Shen Ye's eyes moved: "What's wrong?"

Xie Yi said slowly: "The bottom is empty."

"Empty?" Le Wuyi looked at his feet on the edge of the moon and jumped a few times, "Master, why can we stand on it?"

Shen Ye also withdrew his hand, and the moment his right hand passed through the moon halo, it seemed that some sticky substance was squeezed to both sides by him, and underneath, it was empty, as Xie Yi said, it was not the rope they stepped on. Paved flat ground.

It's just that he seemed to have touched something, and if there was nothing there, he wrapped his right hand tightly.

Xie Yi thought for a moment: "Is it silk?" That unfathomable feeling reminded him of spider silk for some reason.Could it be that under the halo of the moon is a web made of spiders, bearing the weight of the four of them?

Without saying a word, Shen Ye flipped his right hand, and saw a purple-gold dagger appear in his hand. The next moment, he slashed down towards the center of the full moon, only to hear a loud "Dang—" There was the sound of metal colliding, and due to Shen Ye's strength, a cracked full moon suddenly appeared. In the middle, it is just enough for a person to penetrate.And Shen Ye's dagger was cut on one of the extremely thin silk threads.

Not to mention Xie Yi, even Le Wuyi and Xia Yi couldn't hide their surprise, Le Wuyi glanced at Xia Yi, he was very clear about the strength of the grand master, but with such a knife, the silk thread was not caught cut off?How hard is that?

Xie Yi frowned. The silk thread was extremely soft underwater just now. If you don't pay attention, it will definitely be ignored, but when the silk thread touches Master's dagger, it becomes extremely hard. Could it be that it is soft when it is soft? When you meet the tough, you will be tough?No, that's not right, they are standing on the silk screen at this moment, if they really met softness, the four of them would probably have passed through this silk screen long ago.

The full moon shone with a faint brilliance, and the cracks were closed again in the next moment. Shen Ye withdrew his hand and said concisely: "Look for it."

The only reflection in the water in the darkness, and the covered hole under it, no need to guess, it should be an entrance, an entrance leading to nowhere, and what they have to do now is to decipher the mechanism of this hole.

The other three nodded when they heard the words, and Le Wuyi looked at Xie Yi: "Master, you..." Before he finished speaking, Shen Ye pulled Xie Yi away expressionlessly, turned around and left, and there was a flash in front of his eyes, but it was Shen Ye Ye threw something over and Xia Yi caught it with one hand.

Looking at Le Wuyi who was stunned, Xia Yi just turned on the flashlight that Shen Ye threw over, pulled Le Wuyi and walked in the other direction: "Wuyi, let's go to the other side."

Le Wuyi sighed: "Grand Master is really stingy." He just wanted to have a few more words with Master. Is it necessary to guard against him like a thief?

Xia Yi touched Le Wuyi's extremely soft hair as a comfort.

With Xia Yize's comfort, Le Wuyi finally cheered up: "Sure enough, you are better off with Yize."

Xia Yi smiled in relief.

Don't want Le Wuyi to add another sentence: "But the master is also very good."

"..." The lover who loves the teacher, why did he get used to it after a few days?

The strength of the hand rubbing the top of Le Wuyi's head was increased, and the soft hair of the other party was rumpled, and Xia Yi smiled and said, "Let's hurry up."

Le Wuyi did not doubt that he was there, and said with a smile, "Okay."

On the other side, Shen Ye dragged Xie Yi forward, and when he turned around, he saw the other party smiling helplessly.

"how?"

Xie Yi smiled and said, "Master, it's just a child."

"Kids in their twenties?"

Hearing this, Xie Yi's smile became softer and softer. I'm afraid Master himself didn't realize that he was more like a child who was angry when he spoke like this.

Seeing this, Shen Ye raised his eyebrows: "Xie Yi..." He raised Xie Yi's chin, "Are you really not understanding or are you pretending to be confused?"

Xie Yi's smile remained unchanged: "What the master says is what it is."

"Oh, that's all..." Shen Ye didn't take it seriously, anyway, he would have plenty of time after going out.

Shen Ye held Xie Yi's hand without letting go, and the two walked side by side and stepped onto the shadowy coffin again, while Xie Yi just looked at Shen Ye with a smile on his face, such a master is really good.

The wide tomb at the bottom of the mountain was the size of a square, so the four of them walked towards the periphery of the full moon to find out.

"Peng—" and "Peng—" the coffins colliding sounded more and more frequently because of the manpower, but the river channel blocked by the coffin did not see any other weird places.

Is it really necessary to cut off the silk thread directly by force?Or try jumping right into that silk screen?However, the doubts in his heart told Xie Yi that if he really jumped directly, his body might be cut into countless pieces of flesh by the wire mesh in the next moment.

So, where is the organ that opens the hole?

Xie Yi was still thinking, but Le Wuyi in the distance staggered and fell down. When he got up again, he looked at Xia Yi with surprise and eagerness, and Xia Yi was also surprised, and then Jian Le Wuyi quickly stood up and shouted: "Master! Grand Master!"

Shen Ye and Xie Yi immediately turned around when they heard the words, and saw Le Wuyi waving excitedly in the distance: "There is something here."

At this moment, Xia Yi leaned down, and pressed the place where Le Wuyi fell with one hand, a hard stone protruded from the soft rope, and groped it down carefully, the extremely smooth edge, the curved arc, "It's the first quarter moon." He looked at Shen Ye and the two who had walked closer, "It's the first quarter moon in the phases of the moon."

Xie Yi also bent down to touch it for a moment: "Is it really related to the phase of the moon?"

It is most likely the full moon at the entrance, and the first quarter moon not far from the full moon. Xie Yi looked at the distance between the two: "There should be other moon phases." He looked at Le Wuyi, not forgetting Compliment, "You're doing a great job."

Le Wuyi blushed a little, scratched his head and said, "It's just luck." He found this thing after accidentally stepping on a void and falling down. It's just right.

Xia Yi said: "If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have made this discovery."

Le Wuyi could only smirk, but looked at Grand Master, even though his face was expressionless, it seemed that he was satisfied?So the blushing face became hotter and hotter: "Then I'll go find the next one!"

Xie Yi looked at Le Wuyi with a funny face and ran away in a hurry, and said to Shen Ye beside him: "Master, let's go find it too."

Shen Ye nodded.

With a goal and a beginning, it will be much easier to come down. Surrounding the full moon, the four of them soon found the stone representing the last quarter moon, but...

"The first quarter moon and the last quarter moon are just opposite," Xia Yi held his chin, "but why is the new moon that should be opposite the full moon missing?"

The four of them are standing between the first quarter moon and the last quarter moon, and here happens to be where the full moon is, so what about the new moon?
