The third, fourth, and fifth rooms that Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo entered were all empty, and it was not until the sixth room that they finally found the "clue".
The scene in the room was late at night.
The sky is covered with clouds, a faint waning moon reveals a faint gleam, and there are a few dim stars scattered on the side, which are all the light sources that Ji Thrush and the others can get.
Ji Xiaoniao took out the rainy night lamp, turned on the wick, and turned the flame to the maximum.
The two finally saw their surroundings clearly.
They were on the shoal, walking three or four steps forward, they could step into a lake.
The lake is dark, bottomless, and very quiet, with only slight ripples, rippling to the shore with the breeze.
Ji Thrush stretched out his hand and touched it lightly, feeling cold to the bone.
Wherever the light reached, the two could see a small building standing in the middle of the lake.
The building looks like a very small house, which is fixed on the horizontal plane by a high platform directly inserted into the water. The house is square in shape, and the four walls are only about 70 centimeters in length, width and height. The shape of the top is a pointed tower, with "tiles" that are several times smaller than the normal size arranged in a dense manner, and there are many exquisite and complicated decorations hanging around it, which looks like a handicraft of.
Ji Thrush felt that this thing was very similar to the Japanese shrine he had seen in the animation.
The most important thing is that the front of this shrine is a Japanese-style sliding door!
Although the door was small, if it was opened, even Ren Jianmo, who was 1.88 meters tall, could sneak in through the door stooping.
This is already the most resembling "door" thing they can find!
"Shall we go there?"
Season Thrush waved its lamp towards the shrine in the center of the lake.
Then he turned his gaze to the left, "There, there is a ship."
Indeed, just as Ji Xiaoniao said, there is a boat there, a small wooden boat with two seats at the front and back, with two oars fixed on both sides of the boat, like a small boat for couples in an amusement park. Things, it doesn't look very solid.
Moreover, according to Ji Xiaoniao's movie-watching experience from childhood to adulthood, such key props specially placed in key locations usually mean the word "trap".
But the two had no choice at this time.
The shrine in the lake was 200 meters away from them, and there was no place to stay on the water. Even if she is as light as Ren Damei, it is impossible to jump there directly from the shore.
If they didn't want to use a boat, they had to swim.
But if you think about it with your toes, it will only be more dangerous to go directly into the dark, cold and bottomless lake.
"Get on board."
Ren Jianmo patted Ji Thrush on the shoulder and motioned to him.
Ji Thrush knew that time was running out, he couldn't delay, and he didn't bother anymore. He and his lover boarded the small wooden boat, let go of the cable, held the paddle, and rowed towards the shrine in the middle of the lake.
At this point, there are still twenty minutes left.
At the same time, Ice and Zero also found a door in a room in their own hallway.
After the white-haired youth told Baroque, Tattoo and Mark of the other team what they had seen, he opened the door and walked in.
Just like Ji Thrush's situation, "Anytime, Anywhere Location Tracking" also completely cut off contact when the two passed through the "door".
"Time didn't increase, and the numbers on the clock didn't disappear."
Marco came out of a certain room, and immediately looked up at the clocks everywhere in the corridor, "From this point of view, Boss and Zero should be safe."
Baroque nodded.
"That's right, the boss said just now that they saw darkness behind the 'door', and speculated that it might be a portal."
He touched his clean-shaven chin, frowned and thought:
"Since this is the case, the reason why 'location tracking anytime, anywhere' will fail is probably because they are currently in another dimension. Even if it is an item of 'Peach Blossom Spring', they cannot be contacted under such circumstances."
Tattoos feel the same way:
"So, the door they found may really be an 'exit'."
"Yes."
Baroque nodded with a smile.
"Once you have specific goals, everything will be easier to handle."
He turned his head, and quickly winked at his lover at an angle that Marco could not see.
"Let's go, let's hurry up and find a 'door' too."
&&& &&& &&&
Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo rowed slowly towards the center of the lake.
The size of the two paddles is very small, even Ji Xiaoniao, who has practiced archery all the year round and specially strengthened his arm muscles, finds it extremely difficult to use them.
He felt that he had worked hard enough, and the speed of the boat still couldn't get up at all.
The boat rowed slowly to the middle of the lake.
At this time, they heard a faint singing sound from nowhere.
The voice is very ethereal and ethereal, without lyrics or accompaniment, like a little tune sung by a young girl casually in the distance, pleasant and casual.
According to common sense, Ji Thrush should feel terrified when he suddenly heard someone singing in an unfamiliar environment.
But for some reason, he couldn't even feel the slightest bit of "vigilance". Instead, he couldn't help but stop rowing, stood up his upper body, and looked around blankly, as if he wanted to find out where the singer was.
"Little bird."
Someone took his hand.
Ji Thrush's whole body trembled, and he immediately came back to his senses.
— Fuck!
He secretly cried out in his heart.
—Almost got a psychic attack!
He has tried this feeling of uncontrollable ecstasy before, and more than once!
Ji Xiaoniao turned her gaze to Ren Jianmo.
When Ren Damei of his family used the ability "God said there must be light", it was very similar to this - as long as the eyes met with him, he would involuntarily lose the ability to think, and could only follow the other person's words blankly to act.
At this time, the melodious and clear humming became plural.
More women's singing joined in.
It was also an ethereal chant without lyrics, echoed with the same slow rhythm, and finally became a multi-part chorus.
Only this time, Ji Thrush was no longer bewitched by the singing.
On the contrary, it is obviously a soft and melodious harmony with a very rhythmic beauty. Ji Xiaoniao was stunned to hear the guttural BGM effect that imitates the appearance of Ruojia coconut. The hairs all over his body stood on his head, and even the sheep that had just grown up around his head The rolls were all fried.
Immediately afterwards, their boat moved suddenly.
Something bumped against their boat planking at the bottom.
-coming!
The thrush growled in his heart:
——It’s this kind of classic water-based horror movie plot!
Ji Xiaoniao is now at the "Quick Silver" level of reaction ability, as long as he is not bewitched by the singing, it is impossible for him to sit still.
At the same time as he felt something hit the hull, Ji Thrush's hand holding the oar had released a current.
The blue-purple lightning jumped into the water along the wet oars, crackling and exploding a string of bright sparks.
About ten seconds later, a "person" rolled over on his back and floated out of the water, his body almost sticking to the edge of their boat.
Ji Thrush was startled, and reflexively used the paddle to push the "man" out.
The floating man turned over.
A strange face covered with blue scales was revealed, as well as a thick and long fish tail hidden below the waist.
"It's a mermaid!"
Ji Thrush blurted out.
Then he stared at the face of the "man", and corrected, "It should be said that it is a murloc."
Yes, compared to humans, the creatures he knocked over with electric current seemed to be closer to fish in terms of facial features.
Its face is wide and flat, with deep eye sockets and no eyelids. The two eyeballs are like two glass beads embedded in the pit. The pupils are very large, accounting for more than half of the whites of the eyes. Moreover, it has no bridge of nose, and even no nostrils. No, the area from the eyes to the mouth is flat, and the mouth stretches all the way to the cheekbones, with two rows of thin and dense sharp teeth exposed in the middle—you can tell at a glance that Ya must be a meat eater.
"Let's go."
Ren Jianmo urged in a low voice beside him:
"There is more than one lake, it will be troublesome if it is surrounded."
As if to confirm the correctness of Ren Dameier's speculation, the originally calm lake suddenly moved.
Under the illumination of the rainy night lights, the two saw dozens of water waves cruising around their boat quickly, like a school of sharks smelling blood, lingering.
&&& &&& &&&
Meanwhile, Baroque, Tattoo and Marco are climbing a cliff.
Their current situation is very similar to a famous scene in "The Ring".
At that time, the three of them stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. They found a stone gate in a pit halfway up the mountain, but they didn't find any path or plank road leading to the stone gate.
There is no way, Baroque, Tattoo and Marco can only climb rocks with bare hands and climb up.
Fortunately, the three of them are all top players in the "Peach Blossom Spring", so this extreme sport will not be a problem for them.
After tossing and tossing for a while, the three finally climbed up the cliff and came to the stone gate.
The stone door was tightly fitted, with no pull rings, and no place for a crowbar to be lowered.
Ma Ke turned himself into the form of "Iron Man" with his supernatural powers, pushed and bumped, tried hard for a long time, but still couldn't get the heavy stone door open.
"No, it can't be opened!"
He returned to a normal human appearance with blond hair and blue eyes, and leaned against the stone gate discouragedly:
"This thing must not be opened with brute force!"
"You're right, there must be some mechanism."
Baroque agreed with the burly blond.
He took out a flashlight from his pocket, turned it to the brightest, and began to carefully examine the outline of the stone door.
After a while, Baroque suddenly let out a low cry, and at the same time knelt down on one foot, bent sideways, and began to grope for the gap at the bottom of the stone door with difficulty.
"There seems to be something here!"
Baroque exclaimed in surprise.
With that said, he passed the flashlight aside and said to Marco:
"Help me take a picture!"
Marco froze for a moment.
Because in the past, under such circumstances, it was usually tattoos that helped Baroque. He did not expect that this time, the other party would ask him to help.
But Marco still took the flashlight, squatted down, and helped Baroque light it.
