Chapter 1240: Entrance to the Secret Room

The sacred bone necklace had been silent for a long time, but it reacted when he approached the open space by the river, and the closer he got to the river, the warmer the necklace became.

So, what’s the mystery beneath the river?

The water in the underground river was clear. He Lingchuan took out his Tenglong gun and plunged down, but he couldn't find the bottom.

"It's quite deep. No wonder the water slows down when it reaches this point."

It's no wonder that the soul-destroying mirror couldn't detect it. Water has always been the best medium to isolate spiritual thoughts from exploration.

Fu Liushan threw the acorn man into the water to detect the underwater conditions, then meditated and closed his eyes.

A few ghosts were also floating behind to watch the excitement. When they saw this, they said: "We are also here to help."

After that, they quietly dived into the water.

Two quarters of an hour later, Fu Liushan opened his eyes and said:

"The water bottom is about one foot deep. There are many rock pits and cracks, but nothing unusual is seen."

Other ghosts came ashore one after another, and they all said they didn't see any hidden entrances or exits.

After hearing this, He Lingchuan took out the turtle beads, put them in his mouth, and then got into the water.

People and ghosts on the shore saw He Lingchuan taking out fluorescent spores for lighting underwater and swimming straight into the depths, as if his goal was very clear.

According to the guidance of the sacred bone necklace, he wandered twice to determine the direction.

There are two dark green solid rocks at the bottom of the water. They are no different from other rocks. They are ordinary and unremarkable in terms of size, shape and feel.

No matter whether humans or ghosts wander near here, they probably won't notice them.

But when He Lingchuan was swimming around them, the sacred bone necklace in his palm was the hottest.

Is there a treasure inside the stone that Dafang Pot wants to eat, or is the cave right here?

He lifted up the fluorescent spores and inspected the two stones, pulling out the floating spores to test their hardness.

If they are some kind of pivot, they should be protected by magical powers or formations before they expire.

But the Fusheng knife pierced in easily, like two pieces of cake.

what happened?

"Inside!" The soul-capturing mirror suddenly reminded him, "There is something in the cracks between the rocks!"

He Lingchuan lifted the fluorescent spores into the depths of the stone crevices and took a look, and sure enough he saw something stuck in the crevices.

He reached out and dug it out a few times, and found that the thing was in the shape of a pagoda...

Snail shell?

This snail shell is as long as the middle finger, with black and gray patterns. It is really inconspicuous when it is shrunk in a stone crevice.

Besides, it is normal for there to be a few snail shells in any river.

So neither the little acorn man nor the ghost in the water thought there was anything unusual here.

After all, there are a lot of debris underwater, including branches, wood chips, algae, and rotten fruits brought in from outside. The snail shell is placed in it, just like the trees hidden in the forest, and it is difficult to attract anyone's attention - except for He Lingchuan who is looking for it.

Besides, there are green algae everywhere at the bottom of the river. Only the surface of this snail shell is particularly clean. It looks like it has been touched in a short period of time.

He touched the shell and lifted it slightly.

Not moving at all.

He Lingchuan used a lot of force, but the shell was not broken at all.

The hardness of this thing is not like ordinary shells.

He tried to rotate the shell again, and it felt like turning a screw, heavy and textured.

With a "beep" sound, a series of bubbles suddenly appeared from the cracks in the stone.

The soul-capturing mirror cheered: "Hey, there's an underwater secret room!"

It’s not difficult! I haven’t had the trouble of digging out the White Bear King Cave yet.

However, He Lingchuan waited at the bottom of the water for a while and did not see the stone opening the door, nor did he see any more holes at the bottom of the river.

But he was very sure that he had twisted the shell.

So, where is the entrance to the secret room?

He searched around the bottom of the water and found nothing unusual.

Just as he was thinking hard, the soul-capturing mirror suddenly said: "Turn away the lighting."

He Lingchuan heard the sound and put away the fluorescent spores, and the bottom of the water returned to darkness.

Then what?

The mirror said again: "Look towards the water."

He Lingchuan looked up at the water, where it was pitch black.

What is the problem?

But he reacted immediately, kicked his legs and began to float without any further explanation in the mirror.

Glowing moss grows in the open space by the river, and it looks very bright from the bottom of the water. How could it be pitch black?

He searched every ditch and crevice at the bottom of the river, but he missed exploring upwards!

Just now he was holding up the fluorescent spores, which were the brightest around him, so he ignored the abnormalities on the shore.

He Lingchuan came out of the water and shook his head.

Although he couldn't see his fingers, he could feel that the surrounding scenery had changed.

He quickly took out the fluorescent spore lighting.

Sure enough, Moss, Yin Gui, Fu Liushan, Dong Rui and others were all gone. There was only a stone beach and a narrow entrance in front of him.

Dark and silent.

In the most conspicuous position of the stone wall, a concave circular niche was carved out, and a conch shell with the same black and gray stripes was placed inside.

Needless to say, this is a mechanism that opens and closes the secret room from the inside.

He Lingchuan took two steps forward, twisted the shell in the circular niche, then turned around and jumped into the water again!

…

In the open space by the river, Dong Rui and Fu Liushan were waiting on the bank when they suddenly saw the light under the water disappear.

"Huh?" Dong Rui probed, "Did he put away the lighting, or did he enter the secret room?"

Fu Liushan spread his hands to express his ignorance.

But his expression immediately became serious, and he took out two green candles from his arms and placed them on the ground, one on the left and one on the right, and lit them.

The candlelight was also faintly green, which looked particularly strange.

Then, he drew a circle between the two candles, signaling Dong Rui and the two monkeys:

"Quickly, come in!"

Dong Rui did as he was told: "What?"

"The Yin Sha is coming!" Fu Liushan pointed around, and Dong Rui and Lingguang found that black air was slowly floating in the corridor and the cracks in the stone.

This is the Earth Sha.

With He Lingchuan, the evil spirit will not entangle them.

Now that the Yin Sha has returned, Dong Rui shrank back into the circle:

"I hope he really found the secret room."

As soon as the evil spirit came over and touched the flame of the green candle, it burst out with a "hiss" sound and a puff of white steam came out.

The flame suddenly jumped twice, as if it encountered a strong wind, and these strands of evil spirit seemed to avoid the flame and no longer approached.

Fu Liushan said seriously: "My two evil-repelling candles can't last long. He'd better get out quickly."

He Lingchuan left, and then it showed how difficult the evil spirit was. If there was no humanoid BUG of He Lingchuan, they would have to drive away the evil spirit while fighting monsters. How could they defeat the ghost king?

Dong Rui nodded and pinched the ring on his middle finger.

In fact, there is a dragon pillar hidden in this ring, which can also absorb evil spirits.

They had made thorough preparations in advance. If they were separated in the underground palace, Dong Rui would be immune to the damage of the evil spirits.

However, the dragon pillar was not used because half a cup of tea later, fluorescent spores lit up again under the water.

Then, He Lingchuan poked his head out from under the water and sucked away the evil spirits around him.

He waved to the two of them: "Come down, I found the entrance."

…

The three of them surfaced and walked onto the stone beach. The two monkeys shook off the water on their bodies.

Fu Liushan looked at the cave entrance under the illumination of the spores, with a curious look on his face: "Good guy, how did you find it?"
