Chapter 144 Exploring Rubik's Cube Ruins
"It should be here."

Ye Ren glanced at the dark swamp and didn't know what he was thinking. He took out a blue object from the pocket tied behind his back and took a look at it, then held it in his hand, glowing with soft blue light. It gave Ye Ren a very familiar feeling.

Ye Ren found this thing in the abdomen of the giant crocodile. It should have been left by the unlucky cannibal chief or wizard or something. Although the cannibal chief had been chewed and digested by the giant crocodile, this Lan Yingying However, the stuff inside it has always been in its stomach, and it was not until Ye Ren shared all the internal organs of the giant crocodile with a group of bugs that this stuff was seen again.

"I always feel that this thing is very familiar..." Ye Ren felt the familiar feeling in his hand, and couldn't help thinking of the stone-pattern Rubik's cube that he didn't bring with him this time. The small stone pillar emitting blue light inside the Rubik's cube seemed to be With this one material.

It's just that the blue glowing stone in front of me is much smaller than that small stone stick, not as big as a fingernail, and the edges and corners are very sharp, like some kind of fragments.

"Go down and have a look first."

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Ren still planned to search under the swamp to see if the so-called relics were nearby, because the amber crocodile really didn't look like a guy on the earth, if that If the ancient relics exist, then this giant crocodile is probably related to that place, and Ye Ren did not find any clues about the relics in other places, but there is such a strange creature here, so it is very possible This so-called relic does not exist on the surface, and it is very likely that it was hidden under the water, or even buried by mud.

He did what he said, and Ye Ren didn't shrink his body. He controlled the muscles to close the ear canal and nostrils, and then jumped into the water with a plop, splashing a lot of water.

The water in the swamp itself is very turbid, filled with a large number of bacteria, plankton, mud and rotten leaves. These things are stirred together like a layer of extremely heavy black veil, making people even confused with the surroundings. The environment cannot be seen clearly.

Moreover, in addition to the dark sky itself, the trees in the Amazon jungle compete for sunlight and rain, and the canopy is extremely dense and developed. The faint moonlight cannot be projected from it, making the entire swamp even more black as ink. Ye Ren jumped in After reading it, I suddenly felt that the surroundings were plunged into darkness, as if I couldn't see my fingers.

But Ye Ren was not afraid of this, he just controlled the muscles on his body to shake slightly, and a weak electric current spread in all directions instantly.

inductance.

After being promoted to the third-level electric eel muscle, Ye Ren's perception of a certain tissue in his brain for sensing and operating electric current became clearer, and the operation of electric current became more and more handy. Compared with the past, which only squeezed muscle strength into electric current, Ye Ren now feels that he can use electric current to do more things, such as using electric current instead of eyes to detect the surrounding cloudy environment...

When the vision is confused, the inductance is very wonderful. Although Ye Ren can't describe this feeling specifically, it seems to be similar to the ultrasonic pathfinding of bats in general, except that Ye Ren replaced the sound wave with an electric current.

The range of inductance is not particularly large. Based on Ye Ren's current control level, it can only sense about ten meters around. That is to say, the range that Ye Ren can detect is a sphere with a radius of ten meters around himself. , it’s not that Ye Ren’s power strength is insufficient, but a problem of control. Ye Ren has just been promoted to the third-level electric muscle, and he is still very unfamiliar with the sudden increase in various fancy control methods, and he cannot be particularly perfect To use them, there must be a process of getting familiar with them.

Fortunately, the swamp is not very big. After swimming in the water for less than 3 minutes, Ye Ren discovered a hidden cave under the swamp through induction.

"Ok?"

The appearance of the cave immediately attracted Ye Ren's attention. After floating to the surface of the water to take a breath, Ye Ren dived under the water again and slowly swam towards the hidden cave entrance.

The bottom layer of the swamp is completely covered with a thick layer of mud and dead branches and rotten leaves, mixed with the bones and fragments of some unlucky beasts, but this hole is an exception. The entire hole is shaped like a funnel. The tighter and narrower it was, Ye Ren had no choice but to hide his self-feeding ability, allowing his body to return to its original size before he could get into the cave.

After entering the cave, Ye Ren used his electric power to the limit to sense whether there were any unknown beasts in front of him that would suddenly attack him, while walking forward slowly.

The cave is surrounded by some kind of hard rock, which looks very solid, but the traces of man-made excavation are obvious. Ye Ren slowly moved into it. After about 2 minutes, Ye Ren hesitated. When I went back, my sensor clearly felt that there seemed to be an exit ahead, so I quickly swam towards the exit.

"Whoa!"

Ye Ren stretched out his head from the exit, did not breathe directly, but held the blue fragments in his hands first, and carefully looked at the surrounding environment with the help of the faint light.

This is a place similar to man-made construction. Not far in front of you is a stone platform that you can stand on from the water. There is a semi-circular stone candlestick on each side. I don’t know if it’s because of the age. The light was gone, and not far from the stone platform, a stone gate about three meters high stood quietly there.

"Huh..." Ye Ren took a little breath tentatively, and after staying for a while, he found that there was nothing unusual, and then he breathed with confidence, and slowly climbed up from the water. It seems that there must be some ventilation nearby. Mouth, or something that produces oxygen.

After walking on the stone platform, with the help of the faint blue light in his hand, Ye Ren walked slowly towards the gate, because he didn't bring the Rubik's Cube and the key, Ye Ren didn't intend to open the door, but just wanted to see the ruins What does it look like, let's see the real face.

But when Ye Ren actually walked in front of that door, he was suddenly taken aback.

"what?"

Ye Ren looked at the door in surprise. There were many exquisite thorn patterns carved on the stone door, and two very beautiful rubies were inlaid on it. The overall appearance was very beautiful, but what surprised Ye Ren was naturally not this How exquisite is the door, but at this moment, the door is not closed tightly, but a gap is slightly exposed, it looks like it is not closed tightly, the gap in the door is full of endless darkness, a feeling that makes Ye Ren Some creepy aura slowly escaped from it...

[The light is too dark, it's a little troublesome. 】Ye Ren frowned, took two steps back slowly, and then began to look around, trying to find some items that could be ignited.

After searching around, Ye Ren didn't find anything like branches. In desperation, he could only collect some dry moss nearby, and some black paste left in two wall lamps, and stuffed them all into the He stuffed it into the hemp pocket behind him, and then sparked an electric spark to ignite it.

Fortunately, the hemp bag was soaked in oil, otherwise it would definitely not be able to burn so easily after being wet with water.

Because of the burning material, a flame quickly sprang up from the linen bag, and the warm orange light illuminated the surroundings very clearly. While holding the slowly burning linen bag, Ye Ren was very cautious. Little by little, the stone door was pushed open.

"Squeak... creak..."

With an uncomfortable sound of friction echoing in this empty cave, the stone door was slowly pushed open by Ye Ren.

Ye Ren didn't go in, but first threw the burning hemp bag into the space inside the stone gate, and suddenly the orange flame illuminated the space inside the gate, seeing that nothing happened , Ye Ren walked in very cautiously.

As soon as he entered the grotto, Ye Ren felt a chill, as if his scalp was slightly numb, and immediately became more vigilant, looked around cautiously, and found no movement before calming down a little.

"This place is so weird." Frowning and muttering to himself, Ye Ren came to the side of the fire and began to look around the surrounding environment.

The interior of this grotto is not as big as Ye Ren imagined, it is only about a hundred square meters, it is a completely enclosed circular space, there is almost nothing in it, it looks very empty, there seem to be some murals on the top of the grotto, but I don’t know if it’s because of the age, but these murals have been weathered so badly that we can’t see what they are painted on. There seem to be some crystal fragments on the ground in the center of the grotto, and there are hidden fragments on the surrounding ground. There are some dark brown marks, but there is almost nothing else, which makes Ye Ren feel very disappointed.

"This is……"

Ye Ren stepped forward with some curiosity, squatted on the ground and examined it carefully, scraped off a small layer of dark brown marks with his sharp fingertips, then smelled it, his face changed slightly: "Blood?"

Could it be that something happened here that I didn't think of?Or did someone come here before him?
At this moment, Ye Ren's head was almost full of various questions. The Rubik's Cube and the key were clearly with him, so who could open the door and enter here?Or did someone use the Rubik's Cube to come here before I found the Rubik's Cube?But what happened to the fragment in his hand that was made of the same material as the blue stone pillar key?

"What is this?"

After Ye Ren found the blood, he glanced at the crystal fragments beside him, which looked a bit like the traces left when some kind of crystal was broken, but among them, Ye Ren found a piece that was about the size of a sesame seed. black flake, so he frowned slightly and reached out to pick it up.
