Chapter 559 There is a traitor among us!
"Teacher, what if there is Longgong Island behind the whirlpool above our head? We should try it."
The young and energetic Cheng Zekun didn't believe Lu Song's judgment, so he used the walkie-talkie built into the mask to contact everyone and said.
"It's useless, the vortex above the head should be the entrance to a secret space, used to store this altar."
"Teacher, if this is the case, then there is no danger. We should enter it and have a look, so as not to leave any regrets."
"Well, it's up to you, crocodile, to catch a starfish."
Lu Song had no choice but to agree to Cheng Zekun's suggestion, and planned to catch a "little white mouse" to experiment.
The crocodile moved after hearing the sound, swam to a distance and caught an unlucky starfish and came back.
Under Lu Song's command, the crocodile stuffed the starfish into the black vortex above its head.
After a while, Starfish fell out of the vortex and fled into the distance in panic.
There is no one to stop it, because its mission has been accomplished.
After all, in this case, you can't be a bitch and let people or your own Pokémon go in to find the way.
"Teacher, let me go."
"Well, be careful."
Cheng Zekun nodded, and swam into the vortex with the oxygen bottle on his back.
After one or two minutes, Cheng Zekun emerged from the vortex and told everyone what was going on inside.
"It's indeed a secret space. It's dark inside and there's nothing there. It seems that the teacher's guess is right."
Everyone stared at the ring-shaped depression on the altar, and the atmosphere was a little depressed for a while.
For Shan Jiuren, the success fell short!
Jiang Sheng finally realized what his master felt back then.
It is a brutal torture to have delicious food right in front of you and not be able to eat it.
Is there anything I can do?After all I am different!
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Jiang Sheng was refreshed and thought of a solution.
Since a key is needed to open the portal of Longgong Island, wouldn't it be good for me to steal the "key"?
Or, the "power of desire" can create what he wants.
As long as the ancient energy expenditure is within the affordable range, he can fabricate a new "key" out of thin air.
The absorbing plate was something he stole from an unknown lab, and the forced exerciser was something he invented.
Just do it, Jiang Sheng immediately made a wish silently in his heart:
I want the key to activate this altar!
The wish was made, and surprise appeared in Jiang Sheng's eyes.
the first time!
This is the first time he has received feedback from "Power of Wishes"!
Not as rigid as forward, like a vending machine.
It's real feedback, feedback that's meant to be an inquiry.
The "key" can be found, and it costs very little ancient energy.
Because the "key" needed to activate the altar is by his side!
Jiang Sheng's first reaction was to look at the raised mountains below him.
Perhaps in the great war more than a hundred years ago, as an important activation token of the altar, it fell into the deep sea?
But immediately, Jiang Sheng denied his guess.
If the finger is right under his feet, the "power of desire" will be as rigid as before, and will only ask the ancient energy to complete the transaction, and will not ask his wishes.
With his mind turning, Jiang Sheng made a bold guess.
Maybe... one of us holds this wrench!
Jiang Sheng looked around, wanting to see everyone's expressions.
But everyone wore masks, only revealing a pair of eyes under the goggles, which failed to make him wish.
It seems that our team is not simple.
Is it a mistake?Or has it been planned for a long time?
It's getting more and more interesting!
"Jiang Sheng? Do you have anything to say?"
Lu Song noticed his abnormality and valued his opinion as a superpower.
With a change of mind, Jiang Sheng decided to participate in the drama to advance the development of the plot.
Of course, all of this is based on the fact that his assumption is correct.
If it is really a coincidence, how is he different from Cao thief (suspicious)?
"I just had some immature guesses."
"Tell me." Lu Song cast an encouraging look.
"Looking at the shape of the groove, combined with the habits of the nobles of the empire, I suspect that this 'key' is probably a finger pull."
Lu Song's eyes lit up, and he swam over to measure the size and depth of the dent.
"You are right, there is an [-]% probability that it is a finger wrench!"
Lu Song shook his head again, and said with some pity:
"However, there are many finger-wrench antiques in circulation on the market, and many people also regard them as family heirlooms. It is difficult for us to find suitable 'keys'."
"What if we imitate one? Then add ancient energy to the finger, maybe it can activate the altar."
Of course, this plan is not feasible. Master Yu Xuan has already tried it, and Jiang Sheng is only using it for fishing.
Lu Song didn't answer, and fell into deep thought. They looked at each other without making a sound.
After a while, Lu Song's voice came from the earpiece of the mask.
"Even if the finger is not an ordinary jade finger, the imitation may not be successful. The altar should not only be activated by ancient energy."
After changing the subject, Lu Song continued:
"However, this is a very good idea. In the future, I will try my best to collect some finger pullers to see if I can meet Si Lada. Then I will invite everyone to come together to witness the launch of Longgong Island."
"I will collect it too." Cheng Zekun followed suit.
"Although I am not interested in collecting ancient relics, I will pay more attention."
Talking Lin Xinger, a rich girl, she joined [Ancient Mystery] just to have some fun for herself.
"Well, I will pay more attention to it, but it's a pity that everyone should not bring any antiquities such as fingers this time, otherwise we can try it." Jiang Sheng sighed regretfully.
Dong Chaoyang said suddenly: "The younger brother reminded me that I have a blood jade wrench in my collection, do you want to give it a try?"
Jiang Sheng frowned, and his face under the mask showed a strange look.
With the feedback from "The Power of Desire", he was sure that the finger wrench in Dong Zhaoyang's hand was definitely the real one, and it was the key to open the altar.
Before he could speak, Lu Song grabbed Dong Chaoyang and popularized the basic knowledge.
"Blood Jade Finger? You don't collect fakes made with blood, do you?"
"Teacher, I won't be mistaken, it's true." Dong Zhaoyang said helplessly.
"If it is true, then this blood jade wrench cannot be the 'key' to activate the altar.
Blood jade is generally a funerary object. The jade falls into the throat of the deceased and enters the place where blood vessels are dense. The blood is soaked in the jade, and the blood streaks reach the heart of the jade, forming a blood jade.
In addition, there is another kind of jade that is very similar to blood jade called Xueqin.
Xueqin is the red color of some jade after being buried in the soil. It is not formed by the rotting blood of the corpse, but the iron element in the soil or the iron substance in the funeral objects oxidized and decomposed into the jade body to form the blood Qin.
The Manchu Empire would not have chosen blood jade as the main material for the finger puller, nor could it be the other blood jade.
As the 'key', the wrench must be properly preserved, how could it be buried in the soil.
Besides, the great war that broke out more than a hundred years ago was on Longgong Island, and it was at that time that the fingers were lost for the first time, and there was no time to form blood.
I even suspect that the wrench we need should not be a jade wrench, but a metal wrench or a stone wrench are more reliable.
And it is very likely that it was made of the same material as this altar! "
Lu Song talked eloquently, telling his conjectures.
"Teacher, there's nothing else to do anyway, why don't we give it a try." Dong Chaoyang suggested.
"Have you brought it with you? You can try it."
"It's on the yacht's space backpack, wait for me to get it."
Jiang Sheng took the opportunity to apply: "Teacher, let me go with the senior, I want to go back to the yacht."
"Well, let's all go."
Jiang Sheng and Dong Chaoyang surfaced, boarded Pokémon and returned to the yacht.
On the way, Dong Chaoyang suddenly asked: "Schoolmate, is there anything on your way back to the yacht?"
"It's nothing, I just want to go to the bathroom."
Dong Chaoyang nodded, without further questioning, the two returned to the yacht together.
Dong Zhaoyang went to the dormitory on the second floor to get the blood jade finger ring, while Jiang Sheng went into the toilet.
But he didn't want to solve his physical problems, but made a phone call to Master.
After a while, Dong Chaoyang shouted outside, and Jiang Sheng walked out of the toilet, put on a diving suit and returned with him.
After diving into the water again, Dong Zhaoyang took off his gloves, revealing his right hand with a finger puller, went to the depression on the top of the altar, took off the finger puller and tried to put it in.
Something unexpected happened, the blood jade finger fell into the altar perfectly.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised, but Jiang Sheng frowned slightly, and his gaze fell on Dong Chaoyang's right hand which had just put on the glove.
Was that blood just now?
It's a pity that it was too fast, and it was also covered by him, so I couldn't see it clearly.
Under everyone's gaze, the finger glowed red and turned in the dent.
After a few laps, a beam of red light shoots from the finger and into the black vortex at the top.
Like the fading of ink, the black vortex becomes white and dazzling, and there is a faint fresh breath from it, which makes people feel light, as if they are ascending immortals.
"Successful, we succeeded. After the vortex, there must be Longgong Island. Longgong Island, which has been silent for more than a hundred years, has finally appeared."
Lu Song danced happily and shouted loudly.
The others were also very happy, cheering and celebrating underwater.
After a while, everyone calmed down, and Lu Song patted Dong Zhaoyang on the shoulder.
"You have to remember the discovery this time. I didn't expect our luck to be so good!"
"Teacher, I'm also very surprised. I just collected this finger at random, and the invoice is still there. It cost me more than 20 in total. Teacher, would you like to report it to me?"
"Report, definitely report, not only report, but also bonus!"
……
After calming down, several people faced new problems.
How to explore Longgong Island?
And what dangers will you encounter while exploring?
Is the level of risk they can afford?
When the exploration is over, how should they come out?
They need a "guinea pig", and this "guinea pig" must be human!
Just like in the vaccine development process, there must be clinical trials.
The exploration of different spaces must also be carried out by humans, so that the most accurate information can be obtained.
