Endless route

Chapter 217 56. Oriental Chrysalis and Countermeasures

The flashlight shone into the depths of the hole in the wreckage of the ancient ship. A large piece of the hull here was pulled off by the jade table, and the interior was clearly visible. The ship's beams covered with green attachments were slanted and interspersed, and the wooden planks were corroded to a pitch-black, dense texture. The holes are like bee holes.

The interior structure of the cabin is complex.

Green floating objects fill the water.

Inside the messy ancient shipwreck, the white glaze is particularly conspicuous. No matter how many wreckage fragments and debris are around, it can instantly attract attention.

The human figurines are two feet tall.

The surface is as white, delicate and smooth as jade, without any green attachments. It has limbs and a head, but its legs are tightly closed, its hands are attached to its legs, and its face has no facial features.

It smells like Taoism.

Like porcelain statues in temples.

The white figurines and the decaying wreckage of the ancient ship are incompatible with each other. They are like things from two different worlds. They are filled with oriental weird aesthetics and are so weird that Zheng Yun's mind went blank for several seconds.

Several beams block the view.

All you can see is that the whole body of the human figurine is wrapped with iron ropes, and the chains are stretched straight and firmly fixed everywhere inside the cabin.

Boom!

Vibrations came from inside the figurines.

Zheng Yun could see clearly that as the figurines suddenly shook, at least fifteen slender iron ropes vibrated together, and the entire ancient shipwreck shook at the same time, and more green mist filled the air.

There is something inside the figurines!

It struggled inside the human figurine, and its power was transmitted to the entire ancient ship wreckage through the iron cables. With just one pull, the ship's hull made a muffled crackling sound, and a certain part was torn apart.

"..."

Zheng Yun suddenly woke up.

The wreckage of this ancient ship was already rotten and fragile, and it was dragged to the edge of collapse by the jade table. It really couldn't hold it for a few times.

Move your eyes to look around.

The ghost general hung the ropes on the ends of these iron ropes and shone his flashlight. It seemed that there were several rings of pig iron embedded in the hull of this section of the cabin, integrating it with the entire ancient ship.

It seems that it is indeed a banned ship.

The cabin of this ship was modified by Triton, with pig iron embedded as an iron cage. Iron ropes were then used to tightly seal the human figurines, leaving them suspended in the middle of the cabin until they were sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Just looking at the wreckage.

Zheng Yun could even think of the scene back then.

This forbidden ship must be strictly guarded and lit with lights everywhere. The lights were brightly lit day and night under the escort of the boat master. It was sent from a certain place to this place, and the figurines were sealed and buried at the bottom of the sea forever.

But what kind of material are these human figurines made of, and they can withstand the water pressure of three thousand meters? What is sealed inside, and why do they need to be specially thrown into the seabed to block them by such means?

It shouldn't be porcelain. The latest ceramic composite materials may not be able to withstand 300 atmospheres of pressure unless they are filled with seawater or have the same density as seawater.

Or perhaps, during the bizarre alchemy process, Ancient Dongfang accidentally discovered a method for forging super strong ceramic materials, but the secret forging was kept secret by Triton.

Boom!

Another shock.

The surface of the figurine seemed to change for a moment, like the white sheet being pushed out in an arc, or like the white soft membrane suddenly bulging. The material of this figurine can actually deform!

"..."

Zheng Yun subconsciously retreated.

It seems that Triton's banning method is not that simple. If the figurines are soft, then Triton is probably deliberately taking advantage of deep sea pressure, and pressure is also part of the suppression.

This human figurine is not ordinary weird.

At this moment, it has floated near the sea surface, and it may not be possible to lock it with just the rotten remains and a dozen iron cables.

Once it's out of trouble.

The consequences are unimaginable.

He and others have opened the Immortal Gate, and if things go wrong, they can go back to the secret realm to escape. They are not afraid that it will escape completely, but Jiasi Irene and others can't continue to pursue it.

It's better to sink into the deep sea.

This human figurine must not be allowed to come out.

Although they didn't know what was inside, Zheng Yun could roughly tell that they couldn't take it away, and even if they could take it away, they couldn't control it.

It's better to seal the insurance.

There's no need to fight it.

Zheng Yun looked at the ghost general next to him. The latter was also highly vigilant about this human figurine, always holding a sword and not daring to neglect it.

But other ghost generals seemed to have gone in. To hang the rope, they had to go deep and stand next to the human figurines.

Another glance.

Zheng Yun circled the wreckage.

There was only this human figurine sealed in the entire wreckage of the ancient ship, and there was nothing else. And even if there was anything, it would have probably leaked out of the holes in the doors and windows and fallen into the seabed.

However, at the sharp fractures of the wooden structure, there were several artificial plastic woven bags hanging, the date of which was within one year.

Boom.

Boom.

The sounds of struggling continued.

The thing inside must be alive. It is actually incredible and incomprehensible that it can live from hundreds of years ago to the present, and still has the energy to struggle.

Are there cracks in the figurines?

Can you get some plankton in there?

Or is this thing actually a pupa? Or is it some kind of weird creature in the molting stage? Its white skin is soft, which can also be explained by this statement.

If it is not the two of them, one can only guess based on the theory of gods and ghosts that this may be a porcelain statue in an evil temple. After bewitching countless people in the wreckage, it was sealed here by Haiwei Town.

"Master Immortal, moved out."

Ji Dao's voice rang from the earphones. He and everyone in Tiangong went to move out a large number of heavy objects, including rocks and the like.

"Let them tie the rope, and you come down and take a look."

Zheng Yun immediately brought the ghost general up to the surface of the sea. Ji Dao was overjoyed when he heard this and jumped into the sea without hesitation. The ghost general took him to the bottom of the sea to take a look at the human figurines.

Only twenty meters away.

Jidao saw the human figurines with his own eyes. He frowned and stared at the other person, also falling into a long silence.

do not know.

I really don’t know him.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Yun revealed his guess. In many cases, Ji Dao was a humanoid library. When he had no clue, he needed to input clues to find out the answer.

For example, Hanxian last time.

If Zheng Yun had not said that Hanxian is composed of tiny insects, Jidao would not have thought of the words "all insects become immortals", could not recall the classics, and could not find the fragrant sand specifically for Hanxian.

The ancient Tritons actually knew it all.

They have long known that Hanxian is an insect.

These things are all recorded in the ancient Tiangong books, but the reference to the ancient East is too complicated. Each thing has several names, and it takes a few more keywords to search for it.

"Could it be a chrysalis?"

Ji Dao was shocked after hearing this.

"It could also be the giant eggs of some kind of marine creature, or something in the molting stage, is there any?"

Zheng Yun added keywords to ask.

"A human chrysalis that is almost the same as a human... Immortal Master, there are many records of human chrysalis in the Tiangong ancient books, but there are no such big human chrysalises. This guy is already two feet tall."

Ji Dao frowned and shook his head.

This time he really couldn't figure it out. Maybe all this kind of human pupae had been caught by the Tritons and suppressed in the deep sea here. They appeared rarely and there were not many historical records.

"Is there anyone else?"

Zheng Yun heard this word for the first time, but just the combination of these two words made people shudder.

The ancient books of Tiangong are really a treasure house full of gods, ghosts and monsters. You can also get a glimpse of the leopard from the side. How many strange things were discovered by Triton in the early days of exploring the endless route.

"The term "human chrysalis" has many meanings. Some people turn into pupae, some turn into pupae, some use people to make pupae, and some use pupae to make people. Some people set pupae, some use pupae to seek enlightenment, and some use pupae to live forever."

Ji Dao's extremely concise introduction.

Zheng Yun listened without saying a word. Just now he thought that Haiwei had discovered a large number of eggs of oviparous creatures, but he didn't expect that the word "human pupa" was related to humans and was all caused by humans.

Just the four words "making pupae out of people" can make people think of something heinous and sinful. Behind these few words in historical records may be the lives of countless people.

This is even weirder.

The thing in front of me has a human shape, either a human figurine or a human chrysalis. Who knows what is hidden inside, maybe it is the extremely evil thing that Triton captured from the traitor.

The possibility is also extremely high.

The Pregnant Demon Tower was created by the rebels Triton and the vassal king. In order to rebel, they did all kinds of evil and evil. Afterwards, it was destroyed by Triton, and the Pregnant Demon Tower was also banned by Triton.

And this place is a cage to seal away evil objects. Its purpose is to deal with gods, ghosts and evil objects, and the purpose of its construction is to seal it.

The human chrysalis in front of me, including the red meat and black chrysalis worms in the porcelain vase before, may not all be the tricks of gods and ghosts created by traitors everywhere, but some of them must be.

Having learned from the experience of the Pregnant Demon Tower, Zheng Yun's moral expectations for this kind of thing have been reduced to the lowest level. Even if Jidao suddenly said that there was a living person in this man's chrysalis, Zheng Yun would not be surprised.

Just mixed emotions.

Superstition about demons and ghosts was prevalent in the ancient East. Many evil things were created in both the imperial city and the court as well as in the ordinary markets.

"Master Immortal, the place where immortals are imprisoned must have relevant records about each prisoner. For example, the Immortal Burial Valley records every evil thing that fell to the bottom of the valley. If you want to find out what this human pupa is, you can look for the ones that exist here. Record banned."

Ji Dao looked at Zheng Yundao eagerly.

The Tritonians have strict rules and regulations, and the records of this kind of place are even more detailed. There may even be portraits of people in captivity.

"Replace the jade table first. This object may escape at any time. Let's pass this level first." Zheng Yun sighed lightly.

Jias Eileen and others have been exploring this place for a long time, and even pumped water deep into the stone corridor. Even if there are relevant records stored here, they may have fallen into their hands.

Perhaps they were able to float the wreckage of the ancient ship through relevant records, including the fact that this human chrysalis was deliberately released to attack themselves and others.

"good."

Ji Dao immediately took the order.

They immediately returned to the surface, tied ropes to the heavy objects carried from the Tiangong, and waited for the next step.

Kedester and the hunter also nailed piton nails and hung up ropes to connect the ropes that the ghost had previously tied to the ancient shipwreck, temporarily pulling the entire ancient shipwreck into the sea water.

Then it’s a step-by-step replacement.

They must first pull up the jade table, and then drop it into a huge boulder to replace the jade table. After the replacement is completed, they will tie up more boulders to completely sink the ancient ship wreckage into the deep sea again.

Compared with the speed of falling into the jade table just now.

Replacement is obviously more troublesome and time-consuming.

Ji Dao, Kedester and others are careful and proceed step by step, and it is expected that it will take a while to complete.

Zheng Yun asked the ghost general to come and help.

He took a ghost general to monitor the human chrysalis near the wreckage to prevent it from suddenly getting out of trouble and causing bad consequences.

Same as the original.

Zheng Yun stared at the human chrysalis quietly.

Although it was no different from before, after Jidao's narration, Zheng Yun felt a strange feeling lingering in his heart. He always felt that there might be someone hiding inside this man's chrysalis.

Boom, boom.

The struggle is getting bigger and bigger.

There was a creaking sound from the iron chain.

After breaking away from the deep sea pressure, the pressure near the sea surface was obviously not enough to completely block it. It may be that the human chrysalis began to struggle after sensing that the pressure was reduced.

If this is the case, then Jiasi Irene and others have a deep understanding of this place, and I am afraid there will be other changes in the future.

When I think of this.

Zheng Yun sank out of the green mist, wanting to see the situation under the sea and see if there were any other means in the future.

The result was a shocking sight.

Several searchlight sources dropped previously have fallen into the depths of the sea. The far ones have long since turned into faint points of light, and the close ones are extremely far away, but they can still provide some illumination.

Not visible to the naked eye.

But Zheng Yun faintly saw that those blue lights seemed to illuminate something. A few hundred meters below their feet, there were very large black shadows, blocking the light source.

It seemed to be another ancient shipwreck.

Zheng Yun's tail vertebrae felt cold, and he forced himself to remain calm and continue to observe, and then discovered that those huge black shadows were floating quietly at his feet, neither floating nor falling!

broken!

I have entered into a misunderstanding of my thinking.

The video from the first camp shows that there are floating cities and floating boats three thousand meters deep in the sea, but that was probably a few months or even a year ago, not at this moment!

Jias Eileen and others have been exploring here for a year, and they may have managed to get all the floating boats up, from three thousand meters to several hundred meters away, making it easier to explore.

They had just arrived at the Underground Sea.

There was no observation of hundreds of meters under the sea.

Because their flashlights can only illuminate fifty meters and lighting ammunition can illuminate one hundred meters, they cannot see directly.

Therefore, these huge black figures located hundreds of meters deep in the sea are probably suspended in the water from beginning to end, always in the blind spot of sight at their feet, in the darkness of the deep sea.

They may all be pontoons.

A group of ancient ships from the East that resemble the death of a giant whale.

These weird floating boats have always been in the sea, quietly watching their movements in the dark water!

If you think about it further, Jias Eileen and others may be near the group of ships. The ancient ship that suddenly floated up just now is a wreck. The reason why it floated up is that someone was doing something secretly.

The depth of three thousand meters is inaccessible.

But hundreds of meters under the sea is not a problem.

A diving suit made with modern technology can allow people to dive hundreds of meters deep into the sea. There is not much pressure at 200 to 300 meters, and Jia Si Aileen and the others can hide underneath.

"Master Xian, we are ready."

Ji Dao's voice sounded from the earphones.

"Change, fire a search bomb."

Zheng Yun nodded quietly and calmly.

Ji Dao and others immediately took action, hanging the jade table on the rock wall of the rift valley with a rope, and then pushed the boulder connecting the wreckage into the sea. When the rope straightened, they cut off the rope between the jade table and the wreckage, allowing the boulder to replace it. Take the jade table.

The wreckage of the ancient ship shook again.

Then it started to fall faster.

During this process, the wreckage of the ancient ship made another loud noise, and a large number of wooden structures disintegrated, separated from the hull and floated near the sea surface, causing the wreckage of the ancient ship to sink faster.

Li Xiya also immediately fired the search bomb, which was almost at the same speed as the wreckage of the ancient ship, illuminating the wreckage clearly. The light source was on top and the wreckage was on the bottom, and they sank into the sea together.

Zheng Yun watched this scene quietly.

Jiasi Irene knew that the Immortal Gate existed, but the Immortal Gate in her understanding was not the movable kind.

She probably didn't expect that she could actually make heavy objects out of thin air and drop the wreckage of the ancient ship into the sea.

If there is really someone hiding under the sea.

The wreckage of the ancient ship that is gradually disintegrating, as well as the human chrysalis that may escape at any time, may be able to force them out, repay the other party with their own methods, and use the human chrysalis to counter the opponent.

"Master Immortal, I have to let Master Ghost help me."

Jidao looked at the jade table and said worriedly that the jade table was too heavy. Kedster planned to use a rope pulley to hoist the jade table up, but he would also need help from several ghost generals.

Zheng Yun waved his hand to let the ghost general pass.

He stood in the sea and continued to watch.

"Chief, what are you looking at?" Li Xiya jumped into the water, swam to Zheng Yun's side and followed him.

Ever since the wreckage of the ancient ship suddenly appeared, Zheng Yun had been under the sea from beginning to end without moving a few times, not knowing what he was looking at.

"Look at people."

Zheng Yun spoke softly.

The sinking speed of the sunken ship was faster than that of floating up. The distance of 200 meters was only two minutes. Before Jidao could get the jade table back, the wreckage of the ancient ship was already close to the group of ships.

In a ball of blue light.

It can be vaguely seen.

There seems to be a real shadow moving around!
