Chapter 241 Pretue to be dead?

The bold idea I'm talking about is to take this opportunity to go to the Dan furnace to see what's inside.

This strange elixir has caused me a lot of trouble so far. It should not be so simple. I have to see it clearly now.

Thinking of this, I didn't care about any danger. I jumped up and grabbed one ear of the Dan furnace, pedaled the outer wall of the Dan furnace with my legs, and tried to climb up.

After so many things and injured, I am not so agile.

It took a lot of effort to squeeze out a row of sweat all over my head, and my feet reached the edge of the opening on the Dan stove.

Then I climbed up as soon as I borrowed my strength.

The edge of the opening of the stove is not wide, but it can also accommodate the width of one foot.

I don't have to worry about falling down.

So after I stabilized my body, I stretched my neck and looked inside.

However, it doesn't seem to be as easy to see what's inside. Because the mysterious white light in the distance is not cast from directly above.

So even if the light can make me see everything around me clearly, it can't illuminate the scene in the furnace.

I groped for a while, found the lighter point from my pocket, and tried to look inside.

At this time, I saw that the flame on the lighter in my hand was immediately reflection by the things in the Dan stove.

It seems that there is more than half a tank of dark water inside.

There are some floating objects on the water, and I don't know whether they are rotten water plants or cloth. In short, it's a little uncomfortable.

I looked at the scene inside with some disappointment and felt that I had spent so much effort to climb up, but it seemed that I had achieved nothing.

According to my usual temper, I will definitely jump into the water to find out.

But now, for some reason, I have become more careful.

It may be because the water looks dirty and chaotic inside, so I really can't figure out the situation.

And it is said that the elixir furnace is actually an experimental instrument used for chemical reactions in ancient times. Many alchemy materials contain great acidity or alkalinity. After soaking in water, it may be a jar of water, and there is no bone residue left when jumping in.

After looking at it for a while, I frowned and was ready to jump off the top of the stove.

But at this time, I heard a few purring sounds in the water in the Dan furnace, and several huge bubbles floated up.

I thought something was going to float, but after waiting for a long time, there was no response.

I was surprised. According to the story, a pool of stagnant water will not bubble for no reason. There is no sunshine here all year round, and it is impossible for any aquatic plants to grow in it.

If it is fish, it is possible. After all, the scientific community has discovered many fish that can live in a lightless environment. But if there are really fish living in this stove, what do they eat for a living?

I don't have an answer in my heart, but after thinking about it, I feel that it doesn't matter, because maybe it's just a stone falling from the top of the hole, emitting gas in the water. It's nothing strange.

Thinking of this, I stopped looking in and turned around and jumped off the top of the stove.

After landing, I looked back at the elixir and then continued to walk forward.

In front of me are many identical elixir furnaces, each of which is like a bloated armor guard, standing there, motionless and extremely strange.

Looking at these bronze elixir furnaces, I have to think, who made so many elixir furnaces in the depths of the earth, and what is his purpose?

And these Dan furnaces are similar in size and patterns. Obviously, they are made according to a model. Even so, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources.

With these questions, I have been moving forward, hoping to find other clues through these Dan furnaces.

However, suddenly, I remembered the strange "Dang" sound in my ear.

I thought it was such an environment that numbed my nerves, so I had hallucinations.

But when I stopped to listen carefully, I found that it was not an illusion, but a real sound from not far away.

Obviously, this is the sound of something knocking on the bronze incense burner.

Obviously, there are some living things here.

I can't believe that it was done by living people, probably some kind of animal living underground.

And the furnace wall of the bronze furnace is so thick that it must be a relatively large animal to make this kind of movement.

Actually, I don't care what animals are here, whether it's a python or a large mole. As long as it's not my way, I don't need to take care of it.

But I was very interested in this bronze elixir furnace. If there is really a living thing in it, I think it is necessary to go and have a look.

What's more, if Boss Wu is not dead and is locked in the bronze elixir furnace by a monster and asks for help by tapping, then I will save him.

Thinking of this, I followed the sound and began to find out which bronze elixir furnace was ringing.

I heard the sound coming from the front left, and then I didn't care so much and walked in that direction.

The further you move forward, the sound is getting closer and closer.

Although there are seven or eight Dan furnaces in front of me that are closer to me and more far away, I have been able to confirm that it is one of these seven or eight that makes the sound.

So I slowed down and listened to the recent Dan furnaces one by one.

But to my surprise, when I walked into this area, the tapping sound disappeared and I never remembered it again.

I wonder if the sounding thing felt that I was nearby, so I stopped?

In order to make the sound sound again, I stopped and slowed down my breathing, trying not to make any movement.

After a while, the knock sounded again.

But what makes me strange is that this time, the direction of the sound is the place I just walked.

Do I accidentally pass by?

I have some doubts, listen carefully, and don't let myself act rashly for the time being.

I didn't expect this move to work. In addition to the sound of tapping in the direction when I came, the same tapping sound also sounded in several places around me.

Although the sound of the tap is messy, I always feel that it seems to be some kind of communication signal.

That is to say, many of these Dan furnaces are closed to live objects, and they communicate in this special way.

But this doesn't make sense. Among the creatures I just talked about are snakes and moles, which can make holes in the ground, find food in the soil, or drill into the ground to hunt.

And if any creatures are locked in the bronze elixir furnace, one or two are fine. So many quantities require a lot of food, and in this food-poor land, it doesn't make sense at all.

Unless these things are rice dumplings that you don't eat or drink.

In fact, I have never studied the fact that Zongzi eats or not, but since Zongzi is also a fraudulent corpse phenomenon caused by the electrostatic reaction of corpses, it must be in line with scientific principles.

Science tells us that anything that consumes energy must absorb energy, so Zongzi also needs to absorb energy if it wants to be active for a long time.

Thinking of this, I wonder what is in this bronze elixir stove.

Listening to the continuous movement around me, I finally decided to continue walking.

I stepped towards the nearest ringing bronze elixir, and the strange sound stopped abruptly.

I didn't think too much about it. I followed the previous appearance and climbed up by grasping the ears of the elixir furnace.

This time, I lowered my head and saw that there was no water in the stove. It was dark inside, and the lighter could only shine a rough picture.

But I vaguely seemed to see something with a human body.

I was surprised and said that there was something strange here.

At this time, I didn't care whether I was afraid or not. I put the lighter lower and saw the human-like thing curled up at the bottom of the bronze elixir stove, motionless, as if dead.

Around this humanoid thing, there is also a curved stick, which I don't know what it is for.

I said to myself that if the movement just now was caused by this thing, it must be a living thing. Now if it doesn't move, it may pretend to be dead after hearing my movement.
