Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 461
Gu Qinglan held an umbrella with one hand and gestured with the other: "Er Miao, think about it now. When the high priest opened the mechanism on the Crouching Tiger Stone twice, was it the stone on the right hand side?"

Ding Ermiao carefully recalled the situation at that time, and then nodded affirmatively: "Yes, they are all on the right side."

"That's right. I think the Crouching Tiger Stone on the right is the mechanism that can cause the tomb to collapse. So let's not touch the one on the right now. We can test it and take a look at the Crouching Tiger Stone on the left."

Ding Ermiao nodded slowly: "That makes sense, Sister Lan. Just wait here, and I'll go into the water again and pull the left tiger's tongue to see."

"Do you want me to go into the water and help you?" Gu Qinglan asked.

"No, just wait on the shore." Ding Ermiao waved his hand and jumped into the lake again.

But before he could swim more than ten feet away, Ding Ermiao turned around again and shouted at Gu Qinglan: "Sister Lan, I will turn on the engine later. Please pay more attention to prevent the mountain wall behind you from collapsing. Once this happens, If you find something wrong, just run away and leave me alone, you know?"

"Er Miao..." Gu Qinglan's heart warmed up, she was so moved that she wanted to cry, and she was speechless.

In fact, such a high mountain wall will not collapse.If it collapses, it will probably completely cover up the large lake in front of us.How can there be such a mechanism in the world that can affect the whole body with a single move and cause such a large-scale earthquake and landslide?
Ding Ermiao waved her hand and said: "Sister Lan, what I said is true. If something goes wrong, I will swim away. So you don't have to wait for me on the shore, you know?"

Gu Qinglan bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

Ding Ermiao just smiled and swam confidently towards the Crouching Tiger Stone just now.

The two stone sculptures were still lying quietly at the bottom of the lake. Ding Ermiao went straight to the one on the left.After entering the water, Ding Ermiao emerged from the water and gestured to Gu Qinglan, indicating that he was about to take action and asking Gu Qinglan to pay attention to safety.

Gu Qinglan waved back on the shore, reassuring Ding Ermiao.

Taking a deep breath, Ding Ermiao dived to the bottom of the lake again, put one hand on the tiger's head, and reached into the tiger's mouth with the other.

The moment he probed the tiger's tongue, Ding Ermiao was overjoyed and felt that Gu Qinglan's analysis was completely correct!

Because of the Crouching Tiger Stone on the right, Ding Ermiao had tested it before and touched the tiger tongue with his hand.But now, the tiger tongue on the left is a little different from the one on the right.

The tiger tongue on the right is rougher, and the tiger tongue on the left is smoother.Ding Ermiao thought that this was because the tiger's tongue on the left side was often open and often touched by human hands!
Since it is often turned on, it means that this tiger tongue is not a mechanism that can cause the tomb to collapse.Otherwise, wouldn’t the tomb chamber be gone long ago?

After thinking about this, Ding Ermiao no longer hesitated, clenched the tiger's tongue tightly, and slowly applied force to see if he could move it left or right.Because he had seen the high priest's movements, which were to exert force to one side.

As Ding Ermiao's strength increased, the tiger's tongue slowly moved to the right.Ding Ermiao felt happy, and with a strong force, she completely pulled the tiger's tongue back.

But when he turned it over, he turned it over. He didn't hear any noise, and he didn't see any movement of the tiger statue. This made Ding Ermiao a little disappointed.Logically speaking, when the mechanism is activated, a secret door or something should pop up, right?Isn’t that how TVs are designed?But now, Crouching Tiger Stone has not changed at all.

The bottom of the nearby lake remained unchanged, with no tunnel exit appearing.

Floating to the surface of the water to take a breath, Ding Ermiao dived into the bottom of the water again, and then tossed and pulled the tiger tongue of Crouching Tiger Stone back and forth.But no matter how Ding Ermiao struggled, Crouching Tiger Stone just had no temper and remained motionless.

The frustrated Ding Ermiao surfaced, swam back to the shore and sat on the ground to catch her breath.

From one look on his face, Gu Qinglan knew that Ding Ermiao was not moving smoothly.She also sighed and held up an umbrella to protect Ding Ermiao from the rain.

"No need, Sister Lan, I'm already soaked anyway." Ding Ermiao waved his hand tiredly.

"Then... let's go and rest behind the waterfall for a while." Gu Qinglan said: "Think slowly, there will always be a way. Maybe Wu Zhanzhan has come out at this time and is looking for us at the savage's stone house, maybe ah?"

Ding Ermiao slapped her forehead and said, "Yes, I was stupid again! When we left there, we didn't leave anything behind. What if my junior sister goes there and can't find us, wouldn't she be as anxious as us?"

"How could it be?" Gu Qinglan smiled slightly, and said, "There are the ashes of the campfire where we grilled fish, and the spit out fishbone and fish bones. Zhan Zhan is so smart, he knows that we are still alive when he sees our barbecue scene, so You won’t be nervous.”

Ding Ermiao thought about it, and it made sense. If he cared about it, he would be confused and lose his bearings.

"Okay, Sister Lan, we can't find the trap here, so we'll go back to the place where we grilled the fish and see if my junior sister is back." Ding Ermiao stood up and took his backpack from Gu Qinglan's hand.

"Wait..." Gu Qinglan suddenly blushed and whispered: "Wait for me, I will go behind the waterfall... for convenience."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Ding Ermiao nodded with a smile.

Gu Qinglan held an umbrella and walked quickly towards the water curtain, going around the thin water on the west side.That water curtain is a natural barrier. Otherwise, there really would be no convenient place here.

But just as Gu Qinglan walked into the water curtain, she suddenly yelled, "Er Miao, Er Miao, come and see!"

ah?What does it mean?Ask me to come and see you when it's convenient?Ding Ermiao was stunned, walked a few steps and then stopped.It’s really inconvenient to go see it at this time.

"Er Miao, a cave entrance has appeared in Shanbi Mountain!" While Ding Ermiao was hesitating, Gu Qinglan rushed out from behind the water curtain, gesticulating excitedly and said: "A dragon's mouth-shaped cave entrance has appeared in Shanbi Mountain. , about four feet high from the ground, go and have a look, maybe it’s the passage leading to the Queen’s tomb!”

"What, is there a hole?" Ding Ermiao was overjoyed and plunged into the water curtain.

Sure enough, a cave appeared on the brown stone wall about four feet high.

The shape of the cave is very strange. The upper and lower parts are pointed and slightly protruding outwards. The middle is wide, which is indeed the shape of a dragon's mouth. Some gravels in the upper and lower parts are intertwined and can be seen as dragon teeth.The entrance of the cave is not small enough for people to climb in.

"What a ghost! I searched inch by inch just now, but I didn't find anything wrong with Shanbi Mountain. Why did this cave appear suddenly?"

Ding Ermiao was surprised and happy. He took out a headlamp from Gu Qinglan's waterproof backpack, tilted his head to check the situation in the cave.
