Shen Luo went to the city first and sent the letter home at the inn. Then he rode out of the city and rode quickly, quickly returning to Huangweidang Ferry.
The sky in summer changes all the time. The sky that was clear just a moment ago suddenly becomes covered with dark clouds and the wind blows suddenly, making it look like a scene before a storm.
Shen Luo glanced at the sky, tied his horse to a tree near the ferry, untied the small boat tied to the tree stump, and jumped up.
"Young master, we can't use boats today. Look at the sky, it's going to rain heavily. This river is narrow, and if it rains heavily, the water will be extremely turbulent. Even skilled boats don't dare to launch at this time." "Yu boldly came out of the hut, wearing an apron around his waist and seemed to be cooking. When he saw Shen Luo's actions, he hurriedly stopped him.
"Thank you, Brother Yu, for reminding me, I have my own sense of propriety." Shen Luo waved to Da Da, and knocked the pennies in his hand on the shore. The boat flew forward smoothly, heading downstream. go.
According to what Yu Yan said, it seemed that Master Yu discovered the Unnamed Heavenly Book on a rainy day. The current weather might be an opportunity.
Of course, if the water conditions are really dangerous for a while, he will not seek death.
"Master, there are many reefs downstream. If the current is too fast, no matter how strong the boat is, it will not be able to withstand it. Come back quickly!" Yu boldly shouted in a panic.
But Shen Luo didn't respond. The boat went smoothly, and it was far away in the blink of an eye.
His boating skills were much more proficient than yesterday, and he soon arrived at the rocky beach yesterday. Although the sky was a bit gloomier than when he started, it was still not raining. rain.
Shen Luo stopped the boat beside the brown river reef and was about to move forward when he suddenly stopped and looked up and down at the rugged river reef that was about two feet high above the water.
"Let's start from you!"
Shen Luo said, picking up a fixed rope, tying it around his waist, and then took out a "Treasure Hunting Talisman" from his body ", took out another Yuan Stone and pressed it on it, carefully using his luck to activate it.
Not long after, the white energy in the Yuan Stone surged, and some of it spilled out. Under the guidance of the red thread in Shen Luo's palm, it was injected into the "Treasure Hunting Talisman".
As the runes on the "Treasure Hunting Talisman" lit up, forming a layer of faint white light, Shen Luo closed the red thread in his palm and did not continue. The Yuan Stone, which was originally surging with white energy, calmed down. Compared with before, the white energy contained in it is almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
Although the talisman has not been completely activated, judging from the signs revealed by the talisman, it is obvious that there is no tendency to form the previous white light group.
He only had a few primeval stones on hand, so he had to use them sparingly, so he came up with such a trick.
As a result, in the next attempt, seven or eight talismans failed, and the white energy contained in the Yuan Stone was reduced by nearly one-fifth.
Shen Luo had already expected this. After all, the "Treasure Hunting Talisman" before was created by accident., how can it be so easy to reproduce it now?
He sighed softly, took out a new treasure-hunting talisman from his body, and activated it with the essence stone.
Failed...
Failed...
Still failed...
In the blink of an eye, Shen Luo had prepared a thick stack of There are only a few treasure-hunting talismans left, and the original full primeval stone is almost exhausted.
Even though Shen Luo was mentally prepared, his confidence was still shaken by forty consecutive failures.
Is this "treasure hunt talisman" really just a matter of luck?
If this is the case, things will be in trouble. There are many piles of rocks in this river. It is no easier to find the unknown book hidden somewhere than to find a needle in a haystack.
"If it doesn't work today, then come back tomorrow. I don't believe you can try him hundreds of times and still not succeed once!" Shen Luo murmured.
The Unnamed Heavenly Book is his only hope now, and he cannot give up no matter what.
As he thought this way, his expression returned to normal, he took out a new treasure-hunting talisman and continued to activate it.
There was a "buzz" sound.
As the last trace of Yuan Shi's mana sank into the talisman, a soft white light bloomed from the talisman, forming a white light group only the size of a washbasin.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he realized it, with a blush of excitement on his face!
It is this white light group, it is unmistakable, except that it is smaller, it is the same as the "treasure hunt talisman" that I messed up that night!
But Shen Luo then remembered something, his joy subsided a little, and he put the talisman in his hand close to the brown river reef next to him.
Since there is only a trace of mana injected into the talisman, it cannot really activate the talisman. At this moment, the white light emitted by the talisman begins to dim, but the soft white light still covers the river reef.
As the white light in the light group flashed gently, the river reef quickly became translucent.
But this scene only lasted for one or two breaths. After two flashes of white light, it disappeared completely as the light of the talisman went out.
Shen Luo did not activate the talisman immediately, but took the precious talisman back to his eyes and looked at it carefully.
While he remembered every detail of the runes, he carefully recalled the process of drawing the runes in his mind. He had a little more speculation about the difference between the "Treasure Hunting Talisman" and the Small Thunder Talisman. .
He was about to continue taking a closer look when he suddenly felt that the black clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower, as if a heavy rain was about to pour down.
Shen Luo raised his head and glanced at the sky, gave up his plan to continue research, and took out a primeval stone to activate the talisman.
A "buzz" sound!
Bright white light bloomed from the "Treasure Hunting Talisman", forming a white light group about ten feet in size, covering the nearby brown river reef, and the entire river reef suddenly became translucent.
The white light also shrouded the nearby river water, making it muddy.Not only was the turbid river water not as transparent as a stone, it was not even illuminated at all.
Shen Luo did not hesitate and crushed the talisman in his hand.
The white light group shattered in response and turned into countless large and small white light balls, flying around like fireflies flying all over the sky. Some of the light groups were directly submerged into the water and disappeared.
Shen Luo's eyes swept quickly, taking in all the light balls as much as possible and observing their movements.
The dense balls of light quickly spread to dozens of feet around, making them quite conspicuous in the dim environment.
At this moment, a large white light group floating in the front left seemed to be attracted by something. It trembled slightly and then suddenly sank, completely submerged into the river.
Shen Luo's eyes were filled with joy. He didn't care about rowing the boat, jumped into the river, and dived in the direction of the light ball sinking, not daring to waste a moment.
His movements have been sped up as much as possible, but they are still much slower than the speed at which the light balls gather.
By the time he dived to the bottom of the river, all those light balls had disappeared. He could only roughly judge that the light balls were heading towards a small pile of rocks on the river bottom near the reeds on the south bank. .
Shen Luo quickly swam over, but when he arrived, he was stunned.
Taking advantage of the dim light, he discovered that the pile of rocks at the bottom of the river was composed of some black stones the size of millstones. These black stones had a smooth surface and were completely different from the stones in other places. There were more than a dozen stones in total. So much.
It’s just that the placement of these black stones does not seem to be chaotic, and there is a vague pattern formed.
Shen Luo thought for a moment, and his eyes suddenly widened.
This pattern looks like a skull!
He was holding his breath to the limit and was frightened. He immediately spit out a bunch of bubbles and hurriedly swam towards the river. He barely surfaced on the edge of exhaustion and gasped for air. After a while, I calmed down.
"Why is there such a strange scene at the bottom of the river? Is it a coincidence, or is someone doing it on purpose?" Shen Luo thought in shock.
At this time, the lead cloud in the sky almost overwhelmed the head, and the strong wind rolled on the river. The boat was blown from side to side, and it made a clanging sound when it hit the big rocks.
"God help me, it's better for this rain to come later." Shen Luo murmured, looked around, remembered where he was at the moment, then turned around and swam back to the boat.
He drove the Wu Peng boat forward a short distance and got it stuck between two big rocks on the rocky beach. He fixed it firmly with a cable to ensure that it would not be washed away when the river became stronger. Walk.
Shen Luo calculated the distance by visual inspection and was about to jump into the river again. After a slight hesitation, he turned around and took out all the remaining treasure-hunting charms, two small thunder charms, and other treasure-hunting charms from the package in the boat. After placing the last three Yuan stones close to his body, he turned back and jumped into the river.
At this moment, a dazzling white light flashed across the sky, followed by a loud "rumbling" sound,Countless large raindrops fell from the sky and covered the earth, covering everything in the rain curtain.
"Don't God help me!"
Shen Luo cursed secretly. He had just found some clues, but the rain was coming at the wrong time.
But he couldn't care about anything else now. He jumped into the river and dived towards the previous area desperately.
