As Shen Hong spoke to here, he saw Meng Xiaodie's interest in the row of stone tables beneath the plaque and walked over. On the stone table, there was a stone sculpture of a giant black tiger with its head held high, its mouth open wide in a very fierce manner.
"Another tiger, but what are these stone tables for?" Xu Dazhi also followed along, glancing left and right as if he was still immersed in Shen Hong's story.
"It should be used by the Guardian. Have we seen this Black Tiger more than once?" Meng Xiaodie frowned.
"Why does the Earth Demon worship the Black Tiger? Could it be that the Earth Demons are a type of tiger? " Xu Dajun asked in confusion.
When Shen Hong heard Xu Dazhu's words, she couldn't help but smile. "Perhaps so. In short, this Black Tiger has a special relationship with the Earth Devil."
Xu Dazhi went up to take a look, and then asked curiously, "Why does the Black Tiger's claws want to catch a crane and a dragon?"
"You don't know this, but it has a grudge against these two things." The green-eyed dwarf also came over, chuckling.
Meng Xiaodie, who had been staring at the black tiger, suddenly said, "There is more than hatred, there is even deep hatred."
What do you mean?" Do you really think they have a grudge? From what I see, this statue is just a kind of entrustment. Everyone knows that a dragon has the upper hand and when a tiger has the upper hand. This Earth Demon seems to have a grudge with the dragon.
"Then what about the White Crane? The Tiger and White Crane shouldn't be able to get along well with each other, right?" Shen Hong asked Green Eye Dwarf
"So, this is only a Legacy, a Legacy within the hearts of the Earth Demons."
"You know the hearts of the Earth Demons quite well." Shen Hong mocked.
Other than the statue of the Black Tiger, there were no other items on the stone table. However, there were some marks on the table, as well as some scattered fragrant earth.
"Has anyone been here before?" Meng Xiaodie wiped the fragrant soil with her finger.
"Who?" "You mean the Earth Demons?" Shen Hong asked in surprise.
"Impossible." The green-eyed dwarf shook his head.
"Why not?"
"If the Earth Demon had come before, then the Earth Demon would have already appeared. We destroyed its divine bead, but it still wouldn't fight us to the death. The Earth Demon has so many abilities, just the few of us can't be beaten up by it."
When Shen Hong heard that the green-eyed dwarf's words made sense, he did not say anything.
Meng Xiaodie's interest was greater than her interest in the divine bead. He secretly wondered why his soul seemed to have been touched by something when he saw the black tiger. It was as if he had some sort of connection with the black tiger in his previous life.
Seeing that Meng Xiaodie was silent, Shen Hong said, "We'd better hurry up and find the God Orbs."
The hall's layout was very simple, almost similar to that of the Jupiter's Palace. The place to worship the divine bead was definitely in the back hall, but even after searching for a long time, they were still unable to find the back room. The stone wall in front of the signboard did not have a side door, but rather a solid wall.
"Strange, where is the divine bead hidden?" Shen Hong began to worry again.
Normally, the divine bead would not hide itself so much that it would have to absorb the energy from the ground and the heavenly bodies coming down from the mountain at any time. Furthermore, it would open frequently and let the divine bead release its own luster.
Could it be that Black Tiger again? The green-eyed dwarf remembered the activation mechanism of Jupiter's Hall and immediately poked Black Tiger's eyes with two fingers. However, unexpectedly, the divine pearl did not appear.
"Hey, what's wrong with this tiger today? His eyes aren't very sharp." The green-eyed dwarf scratched his hair.
Meng Xiaodie carefully looked at the black tiger stone sculpture. She was sure that the secret mechanism to hide the divine bead was on the black tiger's body. Since it wasn't the eye, then what part of it should be inside.
"Green Eye, don't worry. We should be able to find the mechanism."
"You're right. Isn't this tiger just that big? Isn't it just a tiger's head, tail, and hooves? I don't believe that I can't find those parts."
He patted the black tiger's butt and said with a chuckle, "This tiger's butt is untouchable, it definitely won't be on it. We can touch it all over. "
The green-eyed dwarf tugged on Black Tiger's ear again, but there was still no movement. He saw Black Tiger's mouth open wide, his fat tongue curling up, so he reached out his hand and pulled, chuckling as he said, "If this tongue is real, I can cut it off and cook it for you."
Before he could finish his words, he heard one of the huge stone pillars start to spin. The stone pillar turned three times clockwise, then turned five times counterclockwise before stopping with a creak.
They waited, expecting a door to open somewhere in a few seconds, but nothing happened.
"What the f * ck is this mechanism? It's half-stuck." The green-eyed dwarf cursed.
Meng Xiaodie also felt strange. Normally, when the mechanism was activated, a door would be opened, but why was there no movement after a few rounds? He thought that something must have gone wrong. It must be the machine …
Or was it a procedural error? Meng Xiaodie came to the front of the rotating stone pillar. The green-eyed dwarf was still lying in front of the black tiger statue. He pointed to the east and then pointed to the west.
After the stone pillar turned, the relief on the stone pillar changed from its original shape to that of a …
A strange sight, Ghost Water Demon's face disappeared, followed by the black tiger's head relief. Meng Xiaodie counted a total of nine black tigers, and then another nine. Meng Xiaodie realized that the underground castle often had nine words on it, was it related to the nine palaces gossip?
He looked around the nine black tiger carvings. The nine black tigers had different shapes, but when he looked around, he felt that each of their eyes was looking in one direction. Looking at them, Meng Xiaodie suddenly became cheerful. Meng Xiaodie quickly called Shen Hong and a few others over.
"Do you see a tiger head here?"
Several people looked at it for a long time before they shook their heads and said, "How is this a tiger's head? How come we can't see a tiger's head?" This was a 3D jigsaw puzzle. Only people with unique eyes could see the tiger head. Shen Hong and her underlings could only see the surface of the sculpture. Meng Xiaodie smiled and blocked the part beside her with her hand.
Everyone was suddenly enlightened and couldn't help but click their tongues in wonder.
Meng Xiaodie pressed her hand on the two tiger eyes, and a door appeared on the wall in front of them.
Seeing this, the green-eyed dwarf clapped and said, "Meng Xiaodie, you're good. Hurry and catch up with me, Green Eye."
Hearing this, Xu Dazhi curled his lips, "With that stupid kid, you want to compete with Hero Meng?"
"I'm at least ten times stronger than you. Kid, do you know?" The green-eyed dwarf chuckled and leaped into the door.
