endless route.

Chapter 174 13. Abandoned Ancient Port Navigation Route

Looking at the entire Xianhai Lake from a high place, the shore of the lake spreads to the distance along the arc-shaped mountains.

Those mountains are like isolated islands.

But the lake is divided into many small lakes.

The place where Zheng Yun is at the moment happens to be in the middle of the shore of the crescent moon lake. At a glance, this is the shore of the huge Xianhai Lake, which is the most suitable place to build a shelter from the wind.

When I think of the word port.

Zheng Yun figured out the function of the thick and long iron cables behind him. They were loosely nailed to the wall, and they should not be used to seal anything, but to provide ship stays.

When a ship returns, the rope can be hung on the iron chain to fix the ship from being carried away by the ups and downs of the wind and waves.

This incident is also common in the history of Triton. The endless sea route is so huge that it is impossible to build ports everywhere.

And the scale of the fleet is also extremely large, with more than one or two hundred ships at a time, sailing on the endless route, and when it is necessary to go ashore for inspection, a temporary port must be built.

Compared with other methods, nailing iron ropes on the rock wall is the simplest, and at the same time it is extremely efficient and the price paid is minimal. It is just some gravel, which is easier to deal with than the monster in the lake.

Once you figure this out.

It is no longer weird that the iron chain seals the mountain.

It's just an abandoned ancient port built by Triton.

However, there were several problems. For example, this simple cable port has five stepped platforms.

Has the water level outside the Tiangong domain changed?
When the water level is high, use the upper one, and when the water level is low, use the lower one?For hundreds of years, the water level has been getting lower and lower, until it turned into the deserted appearance it is today?
How did the boat master get in?
Is there really such a huge beast as the dragon in Xianhai Lake, how could the ancient boat masters enter this place on a large scale, and even need several kilometers of cable ports to accommodate the fleet?
It is understandable.

For the many palace buildings in Tiangong, some of the building materials were excavated in situ, but the furnishings and decorations in the attic and a large number of items were all transferred from the outside world.

There is no shortage of boats in this place.

But it is really hard to imagine how the ancient boat masters bypassed the monsters of Xianhai Lake and forcibly broke into this place to build a port.

In addition, previous speculations have also been confirmed.

The sea in the distance of Xianhai Lake and the mist floating on the sea may really be the sea of ​​mist on the route.

The route here is open!

But don't know where to go.

This discovery shocked Zheng Yun. He had thought long ago that whether it was outside the Tiangong area or the planet where the secret realm was located, it was a section of the endless air route.

He had guessed before that these flight segments are likely to be the flight segments after E-09, because the east route of the endless route is broken, and the foggy sea of ​​E-09 has only one side.

Now it seems that I am afraid it is true.

The area outside the Tiangong area is probably E-10 or E-[-], and the secret realm is probably the same. Even the abandoned ancient city of Hongmist is a stop on the east route of the endless route.

if it is like this.

Then they might start from Tiangong Xianhai Lake, go out to sea and cross the Sea of ​​Mist to check out other sections.

The premise is to leave Xianhai Lake.

There may be some reasons why the ancient boat masters were able to enter and leave this place, but they may not be able to meet these conditions.

First, there were a lot of sea guards in the Ming Dynasty, and the boat masters sailed out to sea mightily. Even if they were blocked by Jiaolong, they would fight with Jiaolong at worst and kill him in the lake.

The second is that Triton was in its heyday back then, and there were endless means by gods and ghosts. There was a Dragon Control Art in Tiangong Immortal Art. The name of this ancestral immortal art has already revealed the final outcome.

Dragon in the lake?

He has long been guarded by Haiwei.

Didn't Ji Dao come here this time for Jiaolong's egg? As long as they can steal it, they can also try to Yuyu.

Maybe that dragon can still be ridden, just like the giant ao by the lake, riding on its back can go out to sea and travel in all directions, exploring the lost places and secrets after the endless route is broken.

I'm afraid that it will be impossible to resist for a while.

Then this idea has to be put on the back burner.

They can get ordinary yachts. They can’t fit the black jade pillow horizontally, but they can stand upright. As long as they make up their minds, they can build a large yacht on the shore of Xianhai Lake even if they buy yacht parts and assemble it by themselves.

But yachts should not.

In the eyes of these monsters in the lake, yachts are no different from those made of paper, they can tear people and boats into pieces with one bite...

"My lord, what's going on up there?"

Zhang Ergou whispered, Zheng Yun disappeared in their field of vision, and they could no longer see Zheng Yun.

This brought them a strong sense of crisis. If Master Xian disappeared, they would be really blind.

"Nothing at all."

Zheng Yun shook his head to get rid of the thoughts in his mind, Ji Dao didn't know what was going on, he was thinking too far.

Fortunately, since he took over the Jianxian Division, he has not made much progress in other aspects, but his brain has grown a lot. Although there was a lot of content in this paragraph just now, it only lasted a minute or two.

"Go down."

Zheng Yun looked at the ghost general beside him, and before leaving, he glanced at the sea of ​​mist in the distance, keeping this matter in his heart.

There is only one person left in the huge Tiangong, and the ruins of the port outside the territory are empty. From the various ruins, you can see the prosperity and splendor of the Tiangong in the past, but now it is ruined and lonely.

It is really amazing.

Behind this broken eastern route, there must be a big secret, which can also be seen from the unique ecology of Tiangong.

The ecosystems of adjacent planets on the endless route, because of the existence of the Misty Sea, will have a certain similarity. Tiangong is an ecology of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the adjacent planets are probably not bad.

Thinking room.

Zheng Yun has already grabbed the rope and descended to the boulder beach. The others are still sitting beside the boulder to rest. There is no monster threat in sight, and this side is still safe.

"My God, what shall we do?"

Zhang Ergou hurriedly asked.

"You guys take some rest."

Zheng Yun frowned slightly and looked around. The purpose of their coming here was to rescue Ji Dao, but Ji Dao only let them take refuge up the mountain, but did not say where he was.

Now that they are safe, there is no need to continue up the mountain, but to continue to look for Ji Dao.

"Ji Dao, can you hear me?" Zheng Yun picked up the walkie-talkie and continued to ask. This is the only clue so far.

rustling.

Still no response.

"Ji Ye means, do you want us to go up the mountain?" The little Taoist whispered his thoughts.

"Master Ji is on the mountain?"

Zhang Ergou looked up at the top of his head. The mountain was frighteningly high. He had just reattached his broken arm, so there was no way he could climb it.

"Will Jiaolong's eggs be born on the mountain? He should have gone to Xianhai Lake, maybe on an island."

Kedster rejected their speculation.

Zheng Yun nodded slightly. He had the same idea, and the mountain was too difficult to climb. The only entry point was the dark caves on the mountain. There might be steps leading to higher places.

But even if this is the ruins left by Triton, it has been abandoned for a long time. No one knows what is in those caves, and what dangerous monsters occupy them.

It is best not to tamper with.

Get in touch with Ji Dao first.

"There are many isolated islands on Xianhai Lake, but how can we get there?" The little Taoist shivered all over, his young voice was clear and trembling from fright.

The fighting of monsters in the lake has not stopped until now.

They could hear the intense splash of water.

In this case, who can swim across the lake?Heavenly Palace Cranes can't be used either, they raise cranes every day, the cranes look arrogant and contemptuous of others, but their status outside the territory...

pitifully low!
Now that it was night, the cranes didn't dare to come out at all, otherwise they might be eaten alive by other fairy birds.

"Don't be impatient."

Zheng Yun sat on the boulder.

He planned to wait here and make a decision when Ji Dao replied to the letter. If Ji Dao still couldn't reply, then the troops would be divided into two groups, the wounded would go back to the Heavenly Palace first, and he and others would go to the Juao to see if he could do anything. No clues found.

There should be some action on Ji Dao's side.

The walkie-talkie was still able to receive the signal just now, but suddenly there was no movement, and Ji Dao was probably moving.

Moreover, Ji Dao also shared a detail just now. He said that he saw the maze coming, but at that time the maze had already covered the mountains and stone roads, which did not match what they had seen and heard.

Ji Dao is not necessarily in the lake.

But Zheng Yun couldn't imagine where Ji Dao would be. If it wasn't for Xianhai Lake, where would he be?
"Master Xian, is the lantern burning all the time?"

The little Taoist returned the jade lantern to Zheng Yun. The 'candle wick' in it was still burning, but the candle material was crystal clear, and it didn't show much consumption after burning for so long.

Han Xian still surrounds outside the circle of light, floating in front of everyone, blocking them from the mountains and forests.

Like a natural barrier.

Once there are monsters rushing out of the mountains and forests, they can immediately blow out the lanterns and drive Han Xian to hunt and kill the invading enemies.

"Light it up, we'll talk about it later."

Zheng Yun was on the walkie-talkie, looking around to check everyone's injuries. After swallowing the blood pill, the little Taoist priest who had fainted had woken up, and Zhang Ergou and the others had ruddy complexions and were very energetic.

Blood pill is really powerful.

However, Zheng Yun also discovered a detail, those of them who had eaten the blood pill seemed to be shaking the copper bells on their ears, presumably they were using their voices to resist the side effects.

Waited in place for a while.

Roar!
A miserable roar came from Xianhai Lake.

The sound was different from what I heard before, it was extremely sharp and shrill, and it was probably the result of the fight between giant beasts.

wow wow wow.

After this scream, there was a sudden sound of flapping wings behind them, causing everyone to look back.

A large number of black shadows gushed out from the gaps in the mountain, and accompanied by the sound of chirping, swarms surrounded the sky above this boulder beach, covering a large area with blackness, like a cloud of black clouds covering the sky.

"Bat?" Zhang Ergou whispered.

"Hide it well." Zheng Yun immediately blew out the jade lantern, and at the same time looked at the ghost generals beside him to prepare them to defend against the enemy.

Everyone moved at the same time, the wounded huddled under the boulder, the others protected the outside world, and the ghost general guarded the gap.

Several ghost generals looked up at the black shadow in mid-air, and took out powder that they hadn't seen for a long time from their pockets.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Yun realized the degree of danger, and at the same time thanked himself and the others for wearing gas masks.

The powder in the hands of the ghost general is also a first-class good thing. When killing sea monsters, a piece of it is dead when you sprinkle it, and you die when you touch it. No living thing can last for two seconds.

But everyone was nervous for a long time.

The dark shadows in the sky did not come down.

They were startled out of the cave and circled around, then returned to the cave and the crevices, making the cave even more dangerous.

"Outside the territory is really dangerous."

Zhang Ergou wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Zheng Yun watched those black shadows return with a telescope, and looked closely at the appearance of those things. They looked like crows and not crows, and bats and not bats. Looking at them strangely made people feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, I didn't rush into the hole just now.

There are a lot of these things, and they all have sharp claws and beaks. At first glance, they look like carnivorous monsters, and it is very troublesome to get entangled.

Wait for them all to return.

Zheng Yun lit the jade lantern to recall Hanxian, and at the same time picked up the walkie-talkie again and tried to get in touch with Ji Dao.

"Maybe he's on the left front?"

Kedster looked into the distance with a telescope, but saw no response from the walkie-talkie, so he made a guess.

Although this arc-shaped boulder beach is long, it also has an end. There seems to be a road beyond the tip of the moon, leading to their left front, but they can't see what's going on there.

"Front left, it fits."

Zheng Yun also looked in the direction that Kadster pointed, Ji Dao was either on the left or on the right, combined with what Ji Dao said before, he might really be behind the cusp of the moon.

"Master Immortal, shall we continue our journey?"

Zhang Ergou also came out to take a look.

"Can you continue to move forward? It's better to let them send you back." Zheng Yun glanced up and down at his broken arm.

"but……"

Zhang Ergou was about to speak.

Ji Dao's voice suddenly sounded on the walkie-talkie, and this time the voice was extremely clear, as if Ji Dao was not far behind them, and every word was clearly heard by everyone:

"Master Xian, are you still alive?"

Hear this short sentence.

Everyone's tailbone felt cold.

Because it is too sudden and too clear, coupled with this weird question, it can scare people stupidly suddenly.

"Ji Dao, we are at the foot of the mountain." Zheng Yun frowned, and pressed the button of the walkie-talkie to provide Ji Dao with a location.

"Master Xian, are you still alive?"

Ji Dao didn't seem to hear Zheng Yun's answer, the same question rang out again, and it was not a word different from just now.

"..."

Zheng Yun was silent.

"Master Ji, what's the matter?" Zhang Ergou's scalp was numb, and his blood almost turned upside down from being frightened by this weird question.

"Where is he?" Kaidester looked around seriously, trying to find Ji Dao from the rainforest.

"Ji Dao, where are you?"

Zheng Yun was alright, he just thought that Ji Dao's walkie-talkie might be broken, maybe it was soaked in water, which short-circuited the speaker, so he couldn't hear his answer.

So after this question is over.

Without waiting for Ji Dao's answer, he took the pistol directly from his belt, twisted off the silencer on the muzzle, raised his arm toward the sky, pulled the trigger, and fired a hard shot.

Bang!
A loud bang resounded through Boulder Beach.

This method of determining the location is a tacit understanding between Zheng Yun and Ji Dao, they used it in the Pregnant Demon Tower.

With Ji Dao's hearing, he would definitely be able to distinguish the direction and quickly find the location of himself and others after this shot.

It doesn't matter even if it attracts monsters.

At this time, Zheng Yun couldn't care about other things.

"I heard it! Master Xian, wait a minute. I'm about two kilometers away from you. Master Xian, walk along the iron rope. I can't get down in mid-air. You have to come and pick me up."

Ji Dao's voice rang from the walkie-talkie immediately. It was true that his handset was broken, and he was still healthy.

"Half empty?"

Zheng Yun looked up at Jushan.

Why did Ji Dao run into the air?
