People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 659 New Discovery
He hadn't realized it just now, but now thinking back, Chen Ziyan suddenly realized that his exploration of the caves seemed not comprehensive.

For example... I subconsciously thought that the pools inside and outside the cave were one and the same, and I didn't go down to see it myself.

Although on the surface the location of the grotto is slightly higher than the pool, it is reasonable to assume that it is above the pool.

But this is just his guess after all, and it has not been verified. Perhaps the actual situation is not the case.

After this thought came to his mind, Chen Ziyan could no longer control his inner feelings. He asked his two men to stay here and wait for him, then he used the rope to swing to the other side of the cave again.

He couldn't feel at ease unless he sorted out the doubts in his heart.

Chen Ziyan, who returned to the cave, did not rush into the water. Instead, he took out his weapon and planned to use it to explore the way first.

After all, this small pool in the cave also blocks out the light, so going down rashly is not a good choice.

As the long stick slowly reached into the water, Chen Ziyan's expression gradually became strange.

Because something he had never expected happened.

First of all, the pool was much shallower than he thought. The long stick had not even reached one meter when it hit the bottom.

The second thing is the bottom of the small pool, which is somewhat unreasonable.

Based on the feedback from the other end of the long stick, Chen Ziyan immediately determined that the object blocking the road below was not a hard object.

He applied a little more force and actually felt some elasticity, as if he had poked something rubbery.

Afterwards, Chen Ziyan changed his position several times, but the results were the same and no other situations occurred.

This situation reminded him of the cave where the coral tree was.

To be more precise, it is an invisible barrier between the hole and the sea water above. Although the bottom of this small pool is more flexible, the overall feeling between the two is similar.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan's arm muscles bulged as he held the long stick, and he suddenly stabbed downwards with force.

He wanted to try and see if the bottom of this small pool was also impenetrable.

The effect was not very ideal at the beginning, because as Chen Ziyan increased his strength, the resistance from below also increased.

However, he did not get discouraged. This situation was something he had expected. After a stalemate, Chen Ziyan used his other hand as well.

Because of the resistance transmitted from below, he felt that if he tried harder, he should be able to break through this barrier.

Facts have proved that Chen Ziyan's feeling was not wrong. When he exerted force with both hands at the same time, the barrier below could not hold on for long and was successfully broken through by the long stick on top.

The moment the long stick penetrated the barrier, Chen Ziyan felt his hand suddenly lighten. Not only did the long stick penetrate a little, but he who was standing on the shore almost fell into the water.

Before Chen Ziyan could stand firmly, a strange force came from below, pushing the long stick back and straightening his tilted body.

This sudden change made Chen Ziyan stunned, but he quickly reacted and realized that it was the power under the barrier that was causing trouble.

As he suddenly realized it, Chen Ziyan steadied his body again and thrust forward again with both arms holding the long stick.

Just one attempt was not enough, he had to try a few more times to be completely sure.

Two minutes later, Chen Ziyan put away his long stick and began to check his equipment. After several attempts, he was basically sure that the situation under the small pool was no different from the top of the hole. The only difference was the strength of the invisible force inside.

After getting this answer, he decided to go into the water and check it out for himself.

Because when he just changed his position, he discovered another problem, that is, the small pool in front of him seemed not only shallow, but also small in area.

After making sure that everything was correct, Chen Ziyan went into the water.

Go into the water...well, this word is a bit of a stretch, because the depth of the pool is not enough to accommodate him, and the water height is not even up to his waist.

However, Chen Ziyan didn't care much about this, because after entering the water, his attention was immediately attracted by the touch under his feet.

Different from the hard touch of the barrier above the hole, the bottom of the small pool felt like he was stepping on a rubber carpet. He could even feel the soles of his shoes sinking into it.

This was exactly what he expected, because this was the feeling he got when he used the long stick to test it just now.

The only difference is that it wasn't as clear as it is now.

Chen Ziyan squatted down slowly, but did not stick his head directly into the water. Instead, he pressed the bottom of the pool with his hand first.

After taking his hand back, he was completely sure that the toughness of this partition was far inferior to that of the hollow one.

Then he moved a little, felt around the edge of the pool, and soon got the answer. The area of ​​this small pool was indeed not large, and the edge of the pool was relative to the bottom of the pool.

Chen Ziyan originally thought that this small pool was integrated with the pool outside, but now he found that things were not as he thought. This was actually a separate space.

After he put his head into the water in a rather strange posture, he soon saw the entire pool.

There was nothing in this small pool except water. Below it was a pitch-black barrier, and around it was a circle of stone structures.

After making sure that there were no gaps in the surrounding stone structure, Chen Ziyan could basically confirm that the bottom was also formed in one piece, just like the hollow stone pillars in the pool outside.

Thinking of the hollow stone pillar, Chen Ziyan suddenly realized that it seemed that the pool and the stone pillar were made of the same material.

No wonder he always felt that the stone structures around him gave him a sense of familiarity.

After realizing this, Chen Ziyan also reacted and thought that this might also be a hollow stone pillar.

It was just because of the grotto above that he mistook it for a simple pool.

After coming out of the small pool, Chen Ziyan looked around for a few times and suddenly thought of a possibility.

Perhaps the water in this small pool did not exist originally.

As we all know, when you put something into a container full of water, the water will overflow.

Judging from the fact that the grotto is only a line higher than the water pool outside, when the stone pillar and the stone platform fell, the water in the water pool would definitely enter the grotto.

The small pool here is a separate space, so it is easy to imagine where the water in it comes from.

Regarding this possibility, Chen Ziyan has another piece of evidence, that is, when he went into the water, he found that the floor of the cave was not horizontal, but had a slight slope.

If water does get in, it will not flow back out until the small pool is filled.
