I Can’t Play This Game Anymore

The four of them got ready and walked towards the center of the stone bridge again.

This time, everyone blocked their ears and pressed against the right side of the stone bridge. Ji Han took the lead and slowed down a bit to ensure that everyone would have time to react in time if they heard the weird sound again.

However, this time when Ji Han walked to the center of the bridge, he still didn't hear any sound. It seemed that Song Qian had guessed correctly. The sound could only cover a certain range.

It wasn't until the four of them touched the lighthouse-like building in the center of the stone bridge that they finally felt relieved.

This lighthouse-like building is also five or six meters high. Ji Han touched the stone on it and asked:

"Chen Ke, can you confirm the location of the divine pillar?"

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"There should be nothing wrong. I recorded the images in the Nine-Star Mirror of the Pre-Qin Dynasty and looked for them almost frame by frame. The luminous point is indeed right here."

Song Qian showed the yellow light on the Shenzhu detector to support Chen Ke's answer.

Then he looked around and said:

"The top of the tower should be the area with the least mermaid activity. The sacred pillar may be placed here to avoid being touched by others, which will affect the stability of the space here."

Ji Han affirmed:

"So be careful when you get the divine pillar later, try not to destroy the stability, and then see how to rely on the divine pillar to open the way out."

Eggplant coughed slightly and whispered:

"And don't forget the plan you just made."

Naturally, everyone will not forget that there are three Lao Liu hiding nearby who are spying on them and preparing to seize the sacred pillar.

Ji Han and Chen Ke climbed up to the small lighthouse in the center of the bridge with flying claws, while Song Qian and Eggplant observed the surrounding situation.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were stunned by the detailed structure on the lighthouse.

There is an area of ​​one square meter above the lighthouse, with hollows on all sides. Four small stone pillars at each corner support the tower cover that is roughly two meters high.

In these two cubic meters of space, two things are placed up and down.

Below is a big man made of stone, with nearly ten huge pearls the size of eggs placed in the bowl.

Those pearls have turned a little yellow, but their size is still impossible to ignore.

And in the center of those big pearls, there is a larger luminous pearl.

Under the illumination of the two flashlights, the luminous pearl seemed to compete with the industrial products in their hands, and its brilliance became even more dazzling.

On top of this stone bowl filled with treasures is a relatively complex-looking device.

The first thing you see is the black jade sacred pillar placed in the core part. You can still vaguely see the concave and convex pattern on it, which is the Kan Gua that several people guessed before.

However, outside the black jade pillar, there is a layer of material that looks like transparent crystal.

The sacred pillar is like being put into a big transparent apple.

Outside this "transparent big apple" is a pair of rusty metal brackets.

The entire metal bracket was completely rusted, and you could vaguely see that it was broken in some places.

On the metal bracket, a transparent crystal piece like a simple telescope part is installed.

On the side of the entire lighthouse, there is a very long metal rod, with a small metal bar connected to the upper end, which controls the angle of the transparent crystal piece.

The lower end of the metal rod penetrates the stone bridge and seems to be inserted into the blue river below.

Looking at the equipment on the lighthouse as a whole, Ji Han didn't understand what it was for.

And although this set of equipment is simple, it still looks too avant-garde and a bit abrupt when it appears in such an underwater civilization thousands of years ago.

Not to mention the brake lever-like thing on the side and the luminous pearl below, even the crystal lens above does not look like it was completed by people thousands of years ago.

Could it be said that eating the sea spirit sand here can increase wisdom?

Well, whether it is smart or not is just a game setting, it doesn't matter anymore, but that big bowl of pearls and luminous pearls must not be left here to waste resources.

Eggplant urged from below:

"Damn it, are you two playing chess up there? Are there any divine pillars?"

Seeing that Chen Ke was still observing, Ji Han replied:

"Don't worry, the sacred pillar is on top, but it seems to be placed on some equipment. It should be related to fixing this space. We can't act rashly yet. Let Chen Ke study it first."

At this time, Chen Ke slapped his thigh and said excitedly:

"Awesome! This design is great. It doesn't look simple, but it really solves the problem."

Ji Han pulled Chen Ke and said:

"Tell me clearly, what is this device used for?"

Chen Ke pointed to the divine pillar in the middle and said:

"Although I'm not sure how to use the divine pillar specifically, looking at the condition of this divine pillar, it should be that the light of the luminous pearl exerts its ability to create space. The layer of transparent crystal-like substance wrapped around the divine pillar should be Cooperate with Ye Mingzhu to stabilize this underwater space.”

Ji Han pointed to the small lens above and the metal pillar on the side and asked:

"Then what is this for?"

Chen Ke did not touch, but pointed and said:

"The power of the divine pillar has two applications here. One is to fix this space, and the other is to create the bubble elevator we use to go up and down. What this lens affects should be the bubble elevator. The other end of the metal pillar is connected In the river below, once the flow of the river changes, it will cause the metal pillar to fiddle with the lens. They must have calculated the angle and affected the water flow in other ways to make the metal rod move, thereby using the power of the divine pillar to create the bubble elevator."

Ji Han seemed to understand somewhat and continued:

"So the mechanism on their temple may be connected to a device below that affects the flow of the blue sand river, thereby indirectly controlling the pillar to open the bubble elevator?"

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"I guess that when they first came down, they must have obtained the divine pillar by accident. Later, they modified it according to the function they discovered, so that they could move up and down in the water stably. Later, they became mermaids. This device may be basically It’s no longer useful.”

Ji Han sighed:

"Fortunately it wasn't demolished, otherwise we wouldn't have a chance to come down."

Although Song Qian and Qie Zi did not see the equipment on the lighthouse, they understood roughly what it was after listening to Ji Han and Chen Ke's explanations.

Song Qian asked:

"Can that be taken off?"

Chen Ke hesitated and said:

"It's easy to take it off. As long as the distance between the crystal body and the luminous pearl is not adjusted, the space should be stable. But if I want to take it back with me, I have to study how to use that small lens?"

Eggplant also understood the meaning and summarized:

"How can this be a lighthouse? This is clearly the Dinghai Divine Pillar here. Then you should study it first. Anyway, the Divine Pillar is here. Are you still worried about not being able to go back?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"That's not what I mean. If the divine pillar stays down there, this set of equipment will be an elevator, so we can go back naturally. But if we take the divine pillar up, it means there is no elevator, and we have to bring an engine."
