Fish swimming around the world

However, after walking only a few steps, Jiang Fan suddenly realized that the cave had ended, and suddenly a huge natural space opened up in front of him, covering an area of ​​a hundred acres.

The ceiling of the cave is no less than twenty feet above the ground. There are some weird crystals inlaid on the top, emitting a soft white light.

The ground is surrounded by water, with a flat platform in the center. The scene on stage left them stunned.

There was a huge deformed turtle that had never been seen before!

This guy has a towering head and horns that look like a dragon's head. His body is ten feet long and his height is three feet. There are even many sword-like things on the back of the turtle. I don't know if they are stones or bone spurs. And there are actually some weird plants growing on these things. The most peculiar thing is that in the center of the turtle's back, there is a three-foot-high stone tablet with some strange inscriptions carved on it.

The giant turtle was lying on the ground with its eyes closed. It was unclear whether it was dead or sleeping.

Next to it stood a bronze tripod with three legs and two ears. Compared with the giant tortoise, it seemed very small, but it was also one foot tall. It looks a bit like a giant turtle's rice bowl.

Both of them were stunned by this sight and couldn't help but look at each other. One word appeared in their minds almost at the same time - Long Ao!

Canglan Longao? This thing should be just a legend. How could such a thing really exist in the world?

Jiang Fan felt like his head was buzzing for a moment. The world once again shattered his understanding.

When the old fisherman said he wanted to catch Longao, he thought it was a joke. I believe you when you say you want to catch a Millennium Bastard, but Long Ao? Are you kidding me? The Classic of Mountains and Seas talks about myths. At that time, I thought he was treating me casually. Who the hell do you know this thing actually exists!

But, old fisherman, you are obviously in the wrong place. Fortunately, you have been here for a year and you didn't realize that this is Long Ao's lair? Is it still waiting in Bailuzhou because the legendary Dragon Ao appeared on those two occasions?

But thinking about it carefully, if it weren't for Pei Yunjin's weak water, I probably wouldn't have been able to find the hidden entrance in the pitch-black hole. Judging from this situation, it is obvious that the so-called Dragon Ao should have entered the water from here and passed through the underground river, and this underground river is definitely connected to the Canglan River. The giant turtle should be able to enter the river, and may also come from deeper through the underground river. Entering a certain entrance into a bottomless pool and resurfacing.

The key issue is that above the bottomless pool is a strange hill similar to the shape of a dragon's turtle, which also has traces of artificial carvings, plus the stone tablet on the back of the giant turtle and the bronze tripod next to it. Obviously, someone knew about its existence and arranged something artificially. What is that person going to do?

The two were so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time. He didn't dare to speak easily. Who knows what will happen if this thing is sleeping and wakes up? The combined weight of the two of them weighs about 200 pounds, which is not enough to fit between the teeth.

After a long while, Jiang Fan said softly: "Sister, are we sure we are not dreaming?"

Pei Yunjin patted his chest and said in shock: "I don't know... does such a thing really exist in the world?"

what to do?

The two of them looked at each other, could they just quit like this? So what's the point of this trip?

Jiang Fan was unwilling to give in. Although Long Ao shocked him greatly, this was not what he wanted to find. In fact, he only fancifully hoped that the bottomless pool could be a passage or find some clues. But now it seems that it is Long Ao's lair. Should we just leave?

His eyes kept flashing, and suddenly, Jiang Fan's eyes focused on the stone tablet on the turtle's back.

There is an inscription on it. What does it say? It was covered with a lot of dry aquatic plants and the like, making it difficult to see clearly.

Jiang Fan wanted to see it very much, even if he came here, he would not be willing to accept it until he understood it.

Gritting his teeth, he looked at Pei Yunjin.

"Sister, please give me a break and keep an eye on that big guy. If you find anything wrong, remind me immediately..."

Pei Yunjin was shocked: "What are you going to do?"

Jiang Fan pointed at the stone tablet: "I want to see what the inscription says."

Pei Yunjin's eyes were horrified: "Are you seeking death?"

Jiang Fan's eyes were firm: "Sister, it may be very important to me, I must watch it, please stay away and help me keep an eye on it."

Pei Yunjin grabbed him and said, "Are you crazy? If this thing is really a dragon's claw, it is a big demon beast that has lived for who knows how many years. With the cultivation level of the two of us, it is almost as long as crushing an insect!"

Jiang Fan was also a little scared in his heart, but he would not give up no matter what.

"Sister, you don't understand, I must see it. I will try to be careful."

With that said, he pulled Pei Yunjin's hand away, rose into the air, crossed the water and landed gently on the platform.

He was not very good at cultivation, but he still made some noise, but Long Ao didn't move at all.

Jiang Fan breathed out slowly, looked back at Pei Yunjin, and then tiptoed closer.

The closer he got, the more frightened Jiang Fan felt.

This thing is so big that I am not even as long as one of my nails.

The head looks more and more like a dragon head in myths and legends, with two weird horns. There are thick blue-gray long hairs on the neck, and the body is also covered with bronze scales, each one is as big as a human face.

When he came closer, Jiang Fan also noticed with vigilance that there was breathing! Therefore, this thing is not dead, but sleeping.

Jiang Fan held his breath as much as possible, slowed down his movements, and then jumped lightly onto the turtle's back. First, I observed it vigilantly for a while, and found that it was completely motionless. Only then did Jiang Fan feel relieved and turned to look at the stone tablet.

The three-foot-long stele is overall greenish-black, and I don’t know what kind of stone it is. Thick dry water grass covers it, making it difficult to see the inscription.

Jiang Fan reached out and pulled out the green snake, leaped up, and chopped it from top to bottom, finally clearing the front.

When Jiang Fan looked up, he was stunned. There were six big characters engraved on it. It was a strange language. If he hadn't studied the language of this world in order to find the way, it would be impossible for ordinary people to recognize it. Even so, he only recognized four of them, which translated into: Nine, Ding, Yin, Yang.

Nine? Ding?

Jiang Fan stood there blankly, not knowing what was going on. After thinking for a while, he turned to the back. Sure enough, there was an inscription on the back of the stone tablet. There were four sentences, and Jiang Fan only recognized a few words sporadically.

Nine... Ding... Heaven... Earth... Yin... Yang... Life...

He murmured the few words he could recognize and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he turned his head to look at the bronze tripod on the ground.

Since there is the word Ding, maybe it is related to this tripod?

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan jumped down and walked to the bronze tripod carefully.

The bronze tripod seemed to be very old, but it was well preserved. I don't know what was painted on the surface, and the rust was not excessively corroded.

There were ancient patterns and special characters engraved on it. But there was only one word, which Jiang Fan recognized: dry.
