Chapter 599 "Eastern Sea Chart"

"Shua-boom!"

Like the last time, Zuo Yang slid down the smooth and steep passage, and hit the straw stack below the passage hard, without any injuries.

Standing up and patting the dust off his body, Zuo Yang was already familiar with the road, and continued to move forward along the secret road.

Soon, he came to the side of the withered female corpse with exposed clothes and crossed legs that he had seen before. Now Zuo Yang already knew that this female corpse died of being poisoned by [Yin Yang He San] and not detoxifying in time , so it's not surprising that she died in a pose.

Lifting his foot over the female corpse, Zuo Yang came to the stone room with three stone doors hidden in a short while.

All three stone gates are now open. It should be that after Zuo Yang and Shui Hanqiu opened that time, Qiao Beiming has never set up traps, and may not even have entered this secret passage at all.

After all, for most of the time after that, Qiao Beiming hid in Yihua Palace to recuperate from his injuries, and this time he didn't need to continue retreating, so he didn't need to enter the secret path again.

Looking at the three opened stone gates, Zuo Yang unconsciously recalled the experience when he entered here for the first time...

Because Shui Hanqiu entered the first stone gate first, Zuo Yang didn't find anything, and he didn't even have time to check the situation inside carefully, so he had a conflict with Shui Hanqiu who was hit by [Yin Yang He San], and was finally eliminated. Shui Hanqiu was knocked unconscious, and then raped out of nowhere... That experience was really a bit humiliating.

As for the second stone gate, there is a forest of steles inside. Only the largest stone stele in the middle has a problem, and according to Qiao Beiming later said, the engraving on it is the authentic work of [Sura Yin Sha Gong], just to prevent The exercises were leaked, and Qiao Beiming had already destroyed them all.

The third stone gate is a long passage, extending to the small waterfall and the stone room hidden behind the small waterfall. Qiao Beiming hid in this stone room at the beginning, but was molested by Zuo Yang at the critical moment. After a while, he ended up in a state of madness... Let’s not mention this matter, Zuo Yang is a responsible man, not only helped Qiao Beiming recover his skills, but also helped him practice [Sura Yin Sha Gong] to Dzogchen Are you out of bounds?

"Come on one by one, search all over again, and see if there are other windfalls."

This was decided just now, Zuo Yang took a breath, and took the lead to enter the first stone gate with big strides.

The passage in front is no different from the first time I came, and there is no danger. Zuo Yang used the [Crystal Mirror] to check it carefully, and did not find any hidden compartments or secret rooms that might hide things.

Going through this unremarkable passage like this, Zuo Yang finally came to the place where he first encountered Shui Hanqiu.

On the stone wall on one side of this place, the shocking palm print made by Shui Hanqiu when he was poisoned and adjusted his breath still gave people a very shocking feeling. There are many messy traces left by Zuo Yang's fight with Shui Hanqiu when he desperately "anti-Japanese".

The scenes at that time seemed to be right in front of Zuo Yang...

But Zuo Yang didn't remember anything after the "Anti-Japanese War", because after resisting for a while, he was knocked out by Shui Hanqiu with a hand knife, and when he woke up again, Shui Hanqiu was done. .

Correspondingly, this stone gate was also the most sloppy exploration of Zuo Yang when he came last time.

Because when he woke up, Shui Hanqiu said that she had already explored everything here, and then immediately took him away to explore the second stone gate, so Zuo Yang's exploration stopped at this place, and Did not go any further.

But this re-exploration is different, Zuo Yang intends to figure out every corner, so naturally he won't turn back.

then.

Walking past the "anti-Japanese" scene with mixed feelings, and turning a corner, Zuo Yang finally saw something that he hadn't seen before.

Those should be the shriveled corpses of two men. They were wearing very distinctive blue Taoist robes and certain small square hats on their heads... Zuo Yang, the undead forensic doctor, could not judge the two men's identity based on the characteristics of the corpses. Age, but through the incorruptible hair, it can also be judged that one of these two people should be a young man, and the other is an old man, because one person's hair is still black, and the other is silver-white.

On the two corpses, Zuo Yang did not find any obvious trauma, so he couldn't judge the cause of death for a while, but their death time was obviously longer than that of the female corpse outside, because the degree of weathering was obviously different.

"These two people may be the bones of the Taoist priests of the Laoshan School that Qiao Beiming said?"

Zuo Yang thought so in his heart, and wanted to continue to explore, but there was no way ahead... But there was a carving mark that had never been seen on the stone wall at the end.

These engraving traces should look like a design drawing. This design drawing is not complicated. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that it is actually a design drawing of a sailboat. Every part of the sailboat was even dismantled separately. Divide it out, and mark the corresponding specifications on it.

In addition, beside the design drawing, there is also a thumbnail map engraved...

By comparing it with the world map provided to the players in the game, Zuo Yang is sure enough that this map is engraved with hundreds of miles of coastline near Laoshan Mountain, and in the endless sea beyond the coastline, there are also some islands engraved. The location, these islands all have names, and the names are very novel, and the name of an isolated island among them makes Zuo Yang's eyes shine, it is the one Zuo Yang has been to - Happy Island!

Although Zuo Yang has been to Happy Island, he did not go there by boat, but was sent directly through the "Happy Island Receptionist" located in Suzhou City... In addition, the world map equipped with the player does not include overseas Therefore, he can't tell exactly where Happy Island is on the map. Only now that he sees this map, he finally has a relatively clear understanding.

"It's a sailboat design and a sea chart. Could it be that the Laoshan faction really fled to an overseas island as rumored?"

When Zuo Yang was thinking about it.

"Ding!"

A system prompt sounded suddenly, and then a prompt appeared in his line of sight.

——[Please pay attention, if you discover the new map "Donghai Chart", should you print it immediately? 】

"Huh? Still have this function?"

Zuo Yang was also thinking about how to keep the map in front of him, in case it will be needed in the future?
Therefore, when I received this reminder, I was naturally overjoyed, and I chose "Yes" without hesitation.

——[The rubbing is completed, and the viewable range of the world map has increased. Please open the world map to view it. 】

Zuo Yang took a look at the world map according to the system prompts, and sure enough, he saw that in the map that was shrouded in black mist except for the four main cities and the land under its jurisdiction, there was already a small piece of sea area in the east. .

It turns out that the map of this game also contains such an exploration method?

After obtaining the corresponding map, does it mean that he can go exploring in this area with confidence?

Some players have discussed this issue on the forum before, because some players have ventured into the area covered by black mist on the map out of curiosity, and after entering such an area, the black mist on the map will follow the player The pace is gradually opened, but the opening range is so small that when viewed from the world map of such players, the area they explore is like a twisted line that a gopher drilled out of the ground. Small holes, it is impossible to intuitively view the whole picture of the map.

In this case, players will undoubtedly take many detours when exploring this kind of area, and even inadvertently enter a certain dangerous area, and eventually lose their lives extremely unjustly.

After all, in these areas shrouded in black mist, apart from the unknown road ahead, the monsters inside are also relatively fierce. This should be regarded as an advanced map of the game.

And like Zuo Yang is doing now, it is definitely a good thing for him to directly remove the black fog on a certain area on the world map, and then explore this area. How much it can play still depends on one's luck and strength.

But right now, these are not the most gratifying things for Zuo Yang.

What pleased him most was that the sea chart was not very clear when it was engraved on the monotonous stone wall, but after it was printed on the world map, it was directly painted with colors representing various landform features. , immediately made this part of the chart vivid and three-dimensional.

And in the newly generated world map, Zuo Yang can clearly see a dark blue line representing the river extending from Mount Lao to the coastline, and near the coastline, there is a specially marked small sailboat pattern……

What does it mean?
On Zuo Yang's original world map, although the map outside the coastline is shrouded in black fog, the part inside the coastline can be displayed normally. The map, and not long ago, when he talked with Qiao Beiming in the secret room of the Shangqing Palace, he opened the world map and looked at it carefully, so until now Zuo Yang remembers it very clearly. At that time, there was no such dark blue line on it. Sailing pattern.

Therefore, this line and the small sailboat pattern should be rubbed from the chart on the stone wall, and this chart is most likely engraved by these two dead Taoist priests, and these two dead Taoist priests also It is very likely that they are Taoist priests of the Laoshan sect...

These pieces of information were connected together, and after Zuo Yang analyzed it, he seemed to have the most reasonable guess in his mind that was about to come out!

At the beginning, Laoshan Taoist priests were persecuted by the three forces of Jin, Song, and Mongolia, so they had to make a plan to escape. The plan was to sneak to the seaside through this river that should not be seen on the world map, and then take a taxi somewhere in advance by the seaside. The sailboat built secretly by the local government fled overseas, so as to avoid the end of perishing in the cracks between the three forces.

But what about the rivers that cannot be seen on the world map?
Combined with the waterfall in the secret passage and the bottomless pit under the waterfall, Zuo Yang has even more reason to suspect that there is an underground river underneath, and the dark blue line printed out is that underground river. The flow line of the river... Such an underground river will naturally not be displayed on the world map.

Think of these.

Zuo Yang was a little more certain about his previous speculation, and he also had a little more confidence in the idea of ​​exploring the underground river this time. If this is the case, Qiao Beiming's plan can continue to be implemented.

For this unexpected harvest, Zuo Yang was naturally overjoyed.

Next, when he entered the third stone gate and reached the waterfall, he only needed to use his life to prove it again to confirm his speculation.

Thinking of this, Zuo Yang immediately picked up [Fei Gong] and drew on the chart for a while, until he couldn't see the original appearance of it completely, and finally gave up... Now that he has completed the rubbing, This chart is no longer useful to him, and of course it is impossible to take advantage of others.

What's more, if he and Qiao Beiming "escape their shells" through this secret passage and the possible underground river in the end, the secret passage will definitely be exposed, because he must retreat into the secret passage in full view, and Waiting for other people to chase into the secret passage and see this sea chart, wouldn't it be possible to reveal their next whereabouts?
This risk must not be taken!
"call--!"

After doing this, Zuo Yang finally took a breath, and then continued to use the [Crystal Mirror] to search carefully here to see if there are other things hidden here.

However, under such investigations, they found nothing.

There was no other discovery, Zuo Yang had to go back the same way, and entered the second stone gate to investigate. Although the space here is very large, it is just such a forest of steles. The most important part of the forest of steles has been destroyed. I searched inside for a long time, but still found nothing.

Next is the third stone gate. The bottomless hole under the waterfall in this stone gate is the place he must venture to explore on this trip, and with the chart just now, Zuo Yang undoubtedly has confidence in his action this time. No small amount of confidence.

It won't take long.

Zuo Yang was already standing in front of the waterfall, poking his head out to look at the bottomless pit below the waterfall.

It was pitch-black below, and it was impossible to see the specific environment. Even if you could hear the sound of water coming from below, it seemed to be very far away.

At this moment, Zuo Yang had already made up his mind.

In fact, he is not too afraid of water. He has [Han Fu Playing in Water] for lightness exercises on water, and [Secret of holding breath] for underwater exercises. It is still relatively difficult for him to die in the water.

He was more worried about whether he would fall to his death.

But so far, there is nothing to think about, let's go!

Zuo Yang jumped into the bottomless pit...
