The last disciple who traveled through Medicine King Valley sells goods live
Chapter 182 Stone Plate
Shanshan and Yixin waited quietly in the space, each second ticking by like a test of their patience. Their even breathing was remarkably clear in the quiet, adding a touch of warmth and tranquility to the tense wait.
"Senior Sister, what advice do you think our great uncle Tianshi would give?" Shanshan broke the silence, a hint of uneasiness in his voice.
Yi Xin gently patted the glittering shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry too much. Master Tianshi is very knowledgeable and he will definitely be able to help us find a solution."
At that moment, the Spacetime Mirror suddenly emitted a soft glow, and the figures of Xuantian and Suantian appeared in the mirror. Suantian's expression was slightly solemn. He looked at Shanshan and Yixin and said slowly, "The secret behind this mechanism is probably not simple. I have studied many ancient books, and mechanisms like this one, closely connected to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, often conceal things that can subvert our understanding."
Shan Shan listened attentively, feeling a growing unease in his heart. "Uncle Master, what should we do? Open it or give up?"
Suantian pondered for a moment and said, "Opening the mechanism does involve risks, but if you give up, this hidden danger will always exist around you.
My suggestion is that you explore this place on your own. You have space, and Xianyun and the Space-Time Mirror can protect you in dangerous situations, but you can't protect Yi Xin's safety in the first place. "
When Yi Xin heard that she was going to have to watch her junior sister fall into danger, she hurriedly said, "I'm not afraid, disciple. I can protect myself and I can protect my junior sister as well!"
But Shanshan had made up his mind: "Senior Sister, wait for me in the space."
Looking at the gleaming and determined eyes, Yi Xin sighed: "Be sure to pay attention to safety."
That Shanshan nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I will!"
Shanshan took a deep breath, calmed her nerves, and turned back to the front of the cave. She stood in front of the slowly rising stone slab. Although she felt fear in her heart, she was more eager to explore the unknown secrets.
She took out another gold bar and placed it in the groove.
With a creaking sound, the stone slab in the dry position slowly rose, revealing a deep cave entrance. A stale smell, mixed with a hint of mystery, filled the air.
Shanshan held the flashlight tightly in his hand and stepped into the mysterious passage.
After stepping into the passage, Shanshan's heartbeat accelerated sharply. She could clearly hear her own "thumping" heartbeat, which was out of tune with the quiet and strange atmosphere in the passage.
The dim light of the flashlight flickered on the damp walls, illuminating her slightly nervous yet determined face. The passage was narrow and winding, and the moss on the walls shimmered a faint green under the light, feeling cold and slippery to the touch.
Unlike the outside world, where only the floor was made of stone, the walls here were made entirely of this stone. This meant that if she wanted to leave, she had to follow the route they had originally planned, otherwise she would be trapped here.
Shanshan moved forward cautiously, each step slow and careful, fearing to trigger an unknown mechanism. She stopped from time to time and carefully observed her surroundings, trying to find clues from the texture of the wall and the marks on the ground.
As they walked, a fork suddenly appeared ahead. The two passages looked identical, deep and dark, as if leading to an endless unknown. Shanshan hesitated for a moment, recalling the knowledge of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams taught by his great-uncle Tianshu, and began to observe the subtle differences between the two entrances.
She noticed a faint symbol resembling the character "water" on the wall of the left passage, and a "fire" symbol on the right. "The Five Elements interact with each other, so this must be related to the Five Elements," Shanshan muttered to herself. She remembered that in the Five Elements, metal generates water. She had entered from the Qian position, representing metal. According to the order of interaction, she should choose the passage on the left with the water symbol.
After making up her mind, Shanshan walked into the left passage. As she went deeper, the temperature inside the passage gradually dropped, and a chill spread from her feet to her heart. She not only wrapped herself tightly in clothes, but also gripped the flashlight even tighter.
Suddenly, a low rumble echoed from behind. Shanshan turned sharply and saw a massive stone slab appear at the entrance of the passageway, slowly descending, seemingly trapping her. Frantic, Shanshan desperately ran deeper into the passage, trying to find an exit or some other mechanism before the slab completely fell.
Just as the stone slab was about to completely block the passage, Shanshan spotted a small groove in the wall ahead, similar in shape to the metal groove that had opened the mechanism. Without giving it any time to think, she reached into the space, fumbled around, pulled out a piece of metal she had collected earlier, and placed it in the groove.
With a rumble, the slab stopped falling and slowly rose. Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief and slumped to the ground, breathing heavily. After a short rest, she stood up and continued on her way.
After walking a little further, the passage suddenly opened up, revealing a vast circular cavern. The ceiling was high, and strange patterns could be faintly seen. In the center of the cavern sat a massive stone plate, engraved with intricate symbols and patterns, interwoven with the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams she had seen before.
Shanshan slowly walked towards the stone plate. As she approached it, it suddenly emitted a faint light, and the symbols seemed to come alive, slowly rotating. Shanshan was startled and tried to retreat, but found her feet were frozen in place, unable to move.
Then, the shining head began to feel dizzy.
On the other side of the space-time mirror, Xuantian and Suantian, who had been staring at this side, as well as Yitian and others who arrived later, all saw this scene.
Xuantian yelled, "She's been hit by the Soul Separation Talisman!"
However, no one expected that the next second, a green light would appear on Shanshan's body, and then his expression returned to normal.
Everyone realized that Shanshan had a fairy charm, a soul-protecting and bone-raising existence. Moreover, the tea energy that Shanshan refined and the power of faith in his body were the nemesis of these talismans.
After coming to his senses, Shanshan realized that he had almost been tricked. He glared at the stone plate fiercely and gathered tea energy in his hands, intending to destroy the stone plate.
However, something unexpected happened.
The shimmering tea vapor entered the stone plate, and the stone plate actually began to glow green in response. The next second, the stone plate began to absorb the shimmering tea vapor crazily.
Shanshan was suddenly shocked and wanted to retract his tea aroma, but found that he could not do it at all.
If this continues, the tea aroma will be drained away.
At this moment, Shanshan suddenly felt the tea energy in his body suddenly filling up, and the next second, Xianyun appeared outside.
