Chapter 698
The so-called Three Parallel Rivers refers to the three major rivers, the Jinsha River, the Nu River and the Lancang River, running in parallel from north to south in Yunnan Province in southwest China.The length of this parallel flow is more than 170 kilometers, about 350 miles.

Xiao Ying nodded, "The range is the area where the Three Parallel Rivers flow. However, this range is really too big!"

The Three Parallel Rivers can be seen at a glance on the map, but in terms of the general terrain of mountains and rivers, it can cover a large area of ​​more than 2000 million mu, and most of them are between high mountains.

"Can the scope be reduced?" Yu Yao and Zhong Yu asked together.

"Yes!" Xiao Ying nodded, "If you combine the Eight Arrays, the situation at that time, the northeast is the gate of death because of the Japanese pirates' occupation; the southwest is the gate of life. , from this point of view, it can only be in the Jinsha River Basin!"

The Jinsha River is the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and is also a part of the Yangtze River.

But even so, the scope of the Jinsha River alone in the Three Parallel Rivers area is very large.

Yu Yao let out a long sigh, "We thought about water transportation and contacted Three Parallel Rivers before, but we concentrated too much in the area around Wuliang Mountain, and as a result, we didn't find anything from the Ghost Eye Gate Secret Vault. Now I finally understand, that's how it is! "

"Judging from the situation at that time, water transport was indeed the best way." Xiao Ying said, "At midnight, it corresponds to the rats in the twelve earthly branches, which are yang and water..."

"What?" Seeing Xiao Ying suddenly stop talking, Yu Yao immediately asked.

"I know what formation my ancestor Xiao announced!" Xiao Ying frowned and shook his head.

"Knowing the formation is a good thing, right?" Shangguan Yu asked.

Xiao Ying sat down slowly, "This picture has already been broken, there is no need to look at it again, just sit still, I will tell you to listen."

The four returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa.

Yu Yao lit a cigarette, and already roughly understood what Xiao Ying meant, "You can break through this formation, but it's extremely hidden, hard to find?"

Xiao Ying nodded, "The principle of this formation is very simple. It surrounds one of the four elements of the five elements to produce an invisible effect. This kind of formation was not created by my Xiao family, but is a very basic Taoist formation. Everybody knows."

When Yu Yao and the others heard this, they couldn't help but frown.

There is at least one reason why such a simple formation is used in the ghost eye gate's secret cache. It is easy to break the formation, but extremely difficult to find it.

"If I'm right, the range of this formation is so small that it only hides the vicinity of the secret store entrance, even less than a few tens of square meters."

The Jinsha River covers a huge area of ​​the Three Parallel Rivers area. Finding this hidden formation of tens of square meters is almost like finding a needle in a haystack.

Xiao Ying explained, "The reason why the scope is very small is because the Jinsha River is originally a water vein, and it also contains golden sand. There are mountains, rocks and trees on the bank, and the surrounding four of the five elements can appear within a very small area."

Yu Yao thought to himself, indeed, according to this calculation, even a smaller area than tens of square meters can form an array.

"This is the first." Xiao Ying continued, "Second, I said that the water, metal, earth and wood are surrounded, and the five elements in the center are fire. Earthly Branches. Among the twelve Earthly Branches, there are also yin and yang and five elements, and the mouse is yang and water; and the center of the formation, where the eyes of the formation are, must be yin and fire. Only by following the principle of water to overcome fire can we not need formation symbols and You can break through and enter."

Yu Yao asked: "Then the eyes of the yin fire formation are at the entrance of the secret store?"

"Yes, it can't be inside the secret treasure." Xiao Ying replied, "It must be in a tendency to guard the entrance. At the same time, the method of entering the formation is only on the surrounding earthy objects. This It's very simple, just carve a rune on a rock."

Xiao Ying's words also showed that although the principle of the formation is very simple, Xiao Zuoqi still left behind a unique secret method - the runes carved on the rocks in the formation must be recognized and removed by the Xiao family.

"What is the biggest possibility of this dark fire thing?" Yu Yao then asked.

"Everything in the world has yin and yang, and there is no exception to the five elements. With the cultivation base of our ancestor Xiao Gong, for things of fire nature, it is easy to remove the yang and protect the cathode." Xiao Ying thought for a while, "However, in my opinion, cinnabar is the most likely .Because cinnabar is easy to get, and can be arranged in any desired shape.”

The three of them nodded again and again, but they all felt helpless.

The large area has been basically determined, and the formation is familiar to Xiao Ying, and even the method of breaking the formation has been pointed out.However, the search for this formation is really too difficult.The terrain is complex and the scope is too small; even in a large area, there are high mountains and turbulent rivers. If you want to search for details bit by bit, it will take a long time, which is too long to calculate; or use a lot of manpower.

It is impossible to use a large amount of manpower to complete it, because it is not enough to have a large number of people, and everyone must have Xiao Ying's cultivation base and familiarity with the formation.

"Don't be discouraged, it's better than we don't know anything." Xiao Ying saw that Yu Yao and the others were all depressed, and said again, "Actually, there is another harvest."

"Yeah, this is also a major breakthrough!" Yu Yao cheered up a little, "What else can I gain?"

"Judging from the scope of the formation and the layout of the formation, there should be no need to open the sealed door for the secret treasure."

"Oh???" The three said in unison.

Yu Yao continued to ask, "The big five small six grimaces cost money, how do you make a 'key'?"

"The yin fire cinnabar at the entrance is to deal with the yang water; the so-called yang water is formed from the sub-time and the earthly branch in response to the sky; after breaking the formation, you can detect the entrance, but if you want to enter, you have to break the formation within the formation! These six A piece of money is a thing that breaks the formation!"

When Xiao Ying said this, he suddenly smiled, "I guessed before that if there is something to seal the door, other than six pieces of money, an expert can forcefully break it; and a visible door is not as good as an invisible formation! Yinhuo cinnabar guards the entrance , if you can’t break through the formation, if you want to force your way in, it will cause a fire, and the secret storehouse may be burned.”

Yu Yao nodded, "At that time, the situation was urgent, so we chose to transport by water, and at the same time, we were hiding in the water, which meant that there was no 'big construction'. Closing the door would consume energy and time, and it was indeed not a wise move."

Yu Yao didn't immediately ask about the purpose of spending the six pieces of money, which shows that his mind is still gradually calming down.

"These six pieces of money must correspond to the time of the day; the three rivers flow in parallel, and the water vapor rushes from the north to the south; it takes midnight to break the formation, and the shape formed by the money should correspond to the six stars of the Southern Dipper!" Xiao Ying pointed slightly. Slant up.

There is the Big Dipper and the South Dipper; the Big Dipper and the South Dipper.

The six stars of the Nandou are: Tianfu, Tianliang, Tianji, Tiantong, Tianxiang, and Qisha; their shape is similar to that of the Big Dipper, and they are roughly a dipper; however, the "mouth" of the six stars of the Nandou is smaller, and the "mouth" is in the same position as the Big Dipper. Four stars are arranged more closely.

Yu Yao narrowed his eyes and twirled his fingers, "Don't tell me, the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper really look like a key!"

"Not only that." Xiao Ying looked around the three of them.
