The shark reef is not difficult to find. It didn’t take long for the local guide to take us to a seaside cliff: “This is the shark reef. Sharks were often seen below, but not anymore.”
I looked into the sea and saw a few dark rocks below besides the surging water. This kind of place is not uncommon in coastal areas. Is there Sun En's secret hidden down there
Ye Xun whispered: "Didn't the letter provide any other clues?"
"No! They only mentioned the shark reef. I'll go down and have a look." Ye Xun and I slid along the outer wall of the cliff into the sea. We dived five or six meters into the sea. The cliff clearly showed signs of artificial excavation. Mark of.
I made a gesture to Ye Xun, and at the same time sank a few meters down. The mountain at the base of Shark Reef began to recess inward. Moving forward, all we could see was a dark cave.
After I tentatively swam a certain distance into the cave, a staircase ascending appeared in the cave.
"Is that a Taoist temple?" Ye Xun raised his head and pointed to the plaque on the stone door. There were three words written on it: "Darcissus Temple"
"Narcissus Temple?" I frowned slightly and walked up the stairs. The first thing I saw were the seven square holes on the left side of the gate.
I raised my hand and touched the square hole twice: "I understand. Exit!"
Ye Xun said in surprise: "Exit? But we are already at the door."
"Let's go first!" I couldn't help but pull Ye Xun back to the top of the cliff, and went home without even looking at the shark reef.
Ye Xun didn't say until I sat down: "What the hell are you doing?"
I took out the secret box that I had found from the Detective Station, looked around a few times, and then pointed to a keyhole on it and said, "This secret box is actually a key. This keyhole is not used to open the secret." The way to open Narcissus Temple is to insert the lead block in the secret box into the square hole on the left side of the gate of Narcissus Temple. Of course, a seven-character poem is required there. Just cooperate."
I paused and said, "If I guess correctly, when Wang Zhi was executed, the golden hairpin given to his son was the key to the secret box."
Ye Xundao: "Wang Zhi is dead and the whereabouts of the golden hairpin are unknown. Doesn't this mean that we can't open the secret box?"
"The key must still be there." I said, "Our initial idea was right. Continue to look for Zhang Zishuo and Zhang Qiang, and send everyone to look for them until they find each other."
Li Sha in the Seven Stars Group saw me sending people out and couldn't help but said: "Since you have seen the stone door, why don't you just blow the door open. We have equipment here. If necessary, we will go back and take action immediately."
"No!" I shook my head and said, "It's easy to blow up the door, but it's hard to keep the things inside. We are detectives, not adventurers."
"You..." Li Sha was so angry that she stomped her feet and turned around and left the room. Before leaving, she said one sentence: "You will regret it."
I ignored Li Sha's angrily departure. In Western society, the relationship between subordinates and bosses is not as hierarchical as in the East. It's almost common for subordinates to contradict their superiors. Besides, I don't regard Qixing as a subordinate.
What I didn't expect was that more than ten minutes later, Lao Sha ran in: "Wang Huan, it's not good, Li Sha took the people away."
"What did you say?" I stood up suddenly: "How long have you been walking?"
"I don't know." Lao Sha said, "I just saw the note they left on the door."
"Oops!" I grabbed the equipment and ran out: "Ling'er, notify Li Sha and ask her to come back to me as soon as possible."
Ling'er dialed Li Sha's phone and then said with a pale face: "They have turned off their phones."
"Contact me again! Ye Xun, get in the car and chase him!" I led people to get in the car and chased him in the direction of Shark Reef.
Ling'er also dialed Li Sha's phone number over and over again in the car, but there was no response.
When we arrived at the Shark Reef, we happened to see a water column several meters high rising from the sea. Li Sha and the others still blew up the gate.
"Get in the water, quickly!" I didn't have time to think about anything, so I quickly put on my equipment, jumped into the water, and swam quickly in the direction of Narcissus Temple.
When I arrived at Shuixian Temple, the first thing I saw was the stone gate that had been blown to pieces. More than forty sets of diving equipment were thrown near the gate. Thirty sets of equipment were relatively neatly placed, and the rest were But they were all thrown at the door.
"Detective Hand! Chase!" What I was most worried about finally happened.
I knew a long time ago that Ye and I were looking in the wrong place.
Sun En was revered as a narcissus by believers only after his death. He did not call himself a Narcissus during his lifetime. This Narcissus Temple was naturally built by later generations. Moreover, the key to unlocking the door is hidden in Wang Zhi's secret box. It can only be explained that Narcissus Temple comes from Wang Zhi, not Sun En.
If Wang Zhi can build a locking dragon pond, he can also build a Narcissus Temple.
I don't want to touch Narcissus Temple, just because I want the detectives who are following us to take the lead. This time it was good, the detective took the lead, but our people followed and fell into Wang Zhi's trap.
Although I was so angry that I couldn't help but save those who were trapped in Narcissus Temple.
I picked up my gun and rushed between the gates, but I heard loud gunshots in Narcissus Temple, and someone was still calling my companions in English.
"Quick!" I didn't have time to think about anything else, so I jumped from the gate into the Narcissus Temple. But the moment my feet landed, the voices in the Narcissus Temple fell silent again.
When I turned around and looked around, I found that the so-called Narcissus Temple was actually a ring-shaped building. Except for the gate that I rushed in, the entire Narcissus Temple was filled with pillars and stone slabs sealed between the two pillars. .
Before I could figure out what was going on, Ye Xun rushed in with the old knife team: "Where are the people?"
"I don't know!" I was sure that the gunfire I heard just now was not an echo, but there was not even a bullet mark left in Narcissus Temple.
"Spread out and search!" As I waved my hand, the old knife group immediately scattered around, but I walked straight towards the big cauldron standing in the center of Narcissus Temple.
I squatted down in front of the big cauldron and looked at the pattern on the big cauldron. The monster painted on the cauldron looked like a python but not a python, and looked like a dragon but not a dragon. He leaned out halfway between the two peaks and buried his head in the water. It seemed that he was going from the mountain to the water.
I frowned slightly and my eyes scanned the bullet marks under the cauldron.
Someone was hitting this cauldron just now
I stood up, took a few steps back in the direction of the bullet marks, then turned and pointed at the wall on the side of the cauldron: "Blow that wall open!"
Several old knives didn't even use explosives. They just quickly moved in a row and slashed at the wall with their knives. Five peace knives hit the wall at the same time. The stone slabs on the wall shattered with a bang, and palm-sized stones shattered all over the ground. However, they all pulled away and retreated while screaming in surprise.
When I saw the scene in the wall clearly, I couldn't help but gasped. Behind the stone slab was a giant black-scaled python. The huge python's body filled the wall just by stacking it in two layers. If it really breaks through the wall, wouldn't it be like a dragon coming out of the sea
"Get ready..." Just as I was raising my hand to give the order, I saw the outline of a human figure floating from front to back under the python's skin, pushing towards the python's body inch by inch.
A giant python swallowed a person
My first reaction was to draw the knife out of its sheath. No matter who the person was who was swallowed, I had to try to see if I could save him or her.
I held Mi Tian with both hands and looked between the python's bodies. The figure on the python's skin became clearer and clearer, and I quickly estimated the force of the knife.
If my knife is too light, not only will it not be able to cut through the python's skin, but it will cause the python to suddenly go crazy under severe injuries. At that time, let alone saving others, even we ourselves will have to go through a lot of effort to save ourselves.
But I can’t use the knife too hard. If the knife is too strong, the person in the python’s belly may also be disemboweled.
As I continued to estimate my strength, the figure in the python's belly seemed to be gradually expanding. In just a short moment, the python's skin became more transparent, and the snake scales covering the body also stood up one by one. And rise.
Is the person inside the snake going to come out
The moment this idea flashed through my mind, a sharp knife suddenly came out of the snake's belly and slashed along the gap between the snake's scales. The almost transparent python skin instantly cracked a line over a meter. Long opening.
A figure covered in sharp knives also rolled out of the python's belly and fell to the ground.
Before I could see the whole person clearly, the man pushed away the mask covering his face: "I'm Li Hedgehog... help... hurry up..."
The man had been completely disfigured by the corrosion of the python's gastric juice, and even his eyes were covered with a layer of paleness like glass flowers. Li Hedgehog probably couldn't see who we were, but he just knew there was someone on the other side.
"Where is he?" Before I could finish asking, a mouthful of blood spurted out from Li Hedgehog's mouth, and he fell to the ground.
At the same time, there was an earth-shattering explosion diagonally behind us. The rubble blown away from the inside out by the huge force was like a cannonball, flying across the sky. Shi dialed and left.
Before they could block the rocks in front of them, a black-scaled python head rushed out from the exploded rocks, clinging to the ground and rushing straight towards an old swordsman.
"Get away!" I grabbed the opponent's shoulders from behind and threw him behind him, and I faced the snake head and attacked him.
The giant python also suddenly opened its mouth in an instant, and two fangs flashed across the space in front of my eyes. Mie Tian in my hand also changed from chopping to stabbing, and stabbed straight into the giant python's mouth.
With a sound like scraping bones, my hand penetrated half a foot from the upper jaw of the python. The python's huge mouth closed and the two fangs on the lower jaw of the python were thrust towards my lower abdomen.
I simply pressed the knife down hard, then let go of my hand and flew back. Mie Tian, who was originally inserted diagonally into the upper jaw of the python, instantly became upside down, and was pushed into his head by the python's closed jaw.
