Murano Momo is a cunning doctor

Chapter 1267 A Famous Dish

"What do you know!"

The sixth brother adopted an expert's demeanor, saying, "Although Yin Fire is fierce, it fears pure Yang Water. A child's urine is pure Yang essence. When it encounters fire, it does not evaporate but congeals, and can directly penetrate the source of Yin Fire, severing its Yin energy pull."

"This is the principle of the mutual restraint of the five elements; how can it be judged by ordinary reason?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan no longer hesitated and turned to walk towards the bronze platform.

"Damn it, where are you going?!"

The sixth brother shouted urgently from behind him, "The Bronze Platform is now the source of Yin Fire, it's extremely dangerous!"

"Don't try to force it with fire control again, or you'll be swallowed up by the backlash!"

Under the astonished and puzzled gaze of Lao Liu, Jiang Xiaochuan walked straight to the bronze platform.

Watching the dark green light about to burst forth from the groove, he calmly... unbuckled his belt.

The scorching heat immediately made Jiang Xiaochuan frown, and he even absurdly thought of a famous dish that was widely circulated on the internet.

"???"

Old Liu was completely confused.

The next moment, "whoosh..."

A clear line of water cut through the air and landed precisely in the groove.

The entire bronze platform shook violently.

Inside the groove, the eerie green flame that was about to reform did not even struggle before it was instantly extinguished, leaving only a charred mark and wisps of rapidly dissipating blue smoke.

The eerie green flames in the bronze animal-head lamps on the stone chamber walls seemed to have been cut off at their source, and with a "poof," they went out completely.

The room suddenly went dark.

At the same time, an unpleasant smell spread out.

The sixth brother coughed twice, choking on the fumes, before finally coming to his senses.

"You, surnamed Jiang, are truly a lucky star!"

The sixth brother rushed over and saw Jiang Xiaochuan fastening his belt. He grabbed Jiang's neck and grinned mischievously, "So, it turns out you're still a novice who's never been exposed before!!"

As he spoke, he patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, once we get out of here, I'll definitely show you the glamorous world of Beijing! I guarantee you'll be so comfortable you won't be able to stand up straight!"

Jiang Xiaochuan slapped his arm away, wiped his hands on his clothes, and said casually, "Instead of wasting your time, you should think about how to get out of here."

He had observed it long ago; the stone chamber had been set up, and since there was no exit, he was doomed sooner or later.

This can be considered another killing move after Yin Fire!

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaochuan turned and walked toward the tightly closed, dark stone door: "I just looked closely, and this door is cast together with the rock mass, with a unique structure."

“The stress points on the top and sides have been tampered with. If we try to break it open, it will most likely collapse the rock layer above the door frame and bury us alive.”

Upon hearing this, the smile on Lao Liu's face vanished instantly.

He rubbed his chubby face, his expression turning serious.

As someone who makes a living by tomb raiding, failing to see through the Yin Fire Trap in this battle with the descendants of the Tomb Guardians was already a mistake.

If we can't even find our way out of this fake tomb...

That would be utterly humiliating, like losing face in front of the ancestral tablet.

"Even if we could open this door, it probably wouldn't be of any use."

The sixth brother walked to the center of the stone chamber, looked around, and said in a serious tone, "This is the 'Shadow Shifting' technique of the Mountain Moving Sect."

"They disguised an ordinary side chamber as the main chamber and lured us in."

"We're trapped in this 'illusion' now. Even if we push open this door, who knows where it leads, or even another trap."

"The tricks of the Moving Mountain School emphasize 'same appearance but different spirit.' The appearance can be imitated exactly, but the earth's veins, the energy flow, and the age of the stone cannot be deceived."

"The key to solving this is not finding the stone gate, but finding the flaws set up by the Mountain Moving Sect, cutting off its 'energy channels,' and the illusion will fall apart, revealing the real exit."

Listening to Lao Liu's eloquent explanation, Jiang Xiaochuan raised an eyebrow: "So, you know how to solve this?"

"This one……"

The sixth brother's expression was slightly unnatural. "The Mountain Moving School emphasizes 'moving mountains and filling seas, changing veins and shifting shapes,' which is completely different from our 'finding dragon veins and locating acupoints, following the veins to obtain treasures.' I don't know much about their methods."

"But don't worry,"

He puffed out his chest and said, "I've traveled all over the country and seen all sorts of strange traps! No matter how they change, they all follow the same principle. As long as it's a man-made formation, there will always be clues to follow!"

With that, Lao Liu roused himself and began to carefully examine the stone chamber inch by inch, explaining as he went:

"This 'shifting illusion' is simply using the layout and light and shadow to create spatial misjudgment, but the illusion cannot be maintained out of thin air; it needs a foundation and energy."

He crouched down and wiped the edges of several stone slabs on the ground with his hand:

"The most crucial thing is 'qi'. After the yin fire was extinguished, the yin qi here dissipated too quickly and drifted away. It didn't have any roots surging up from the depths of the earth veins. It was more like it was temporarily 'borrowed' and stored using an array."

As he spoke, he pulled something out of the inner armor layer: a bronze earth needle with barbs.

“Since they were able to trap us here, they must have moved the stone. The density of the newly embedded false wall is different from that of the original rock, and the airflow will be blocked behind it.”

"My Earth-type Needle can detect airflow; wherever it is blocked, that is the weakness."

He took the earth-moving needle and probed along the cracks in the wall and the ground one by one, moving the needle tip along the stone slab and pricking it every now and then.

Suddenly, the needle tip paused in a narrow crack in the southeast corner of the wall and began to tremble slightly.

The sixth brother's eyes lit up. He moved closer to the corner of the wall, almost pressing his face against it. He stuck out his tongue and quickly licked his fingertips, then lightly wiped them on the wall before bringing them to his nose to smell.

"There's a breeze! And a faint scent of mirage sand!"

He excitedly slapped the ground, "This is a commonly used tool for setting up advanced illusion arrays!"

As he spoke, Lao Liu gently tapped the stone wall in that area: "Tap tap" The first two taps were solid muffled sounds, but the third tap produced a hollow "thump thump".

"found it!"

The sixth brother took two steps back, pointed to the corner of the wall, and said with certainty, "The flaw is right here! There's no solid wall behind it; it's either empty or a node in the array that maintains this whole 'illusion'!"

"Break through it, and this 'teleportation' trick will be broken!"

"You previously said that the scheme was orchestrated by the descendants of the Zhenling Division. How did you then bring up the methods of the Moving Mountain Sect?"

Seeing that Lao Liu looked confident, Jiang Xiaochuan frowned and asked.

"They know a lot more than that!"

Old Liu clicked his tongue and said, "Speaking of which, there have always been four major schools in this underground trade—the tomb raiders, the gold hunters, the mountain movers, and the ridge unloaders. Each has its own approach."

"Although our lineage is rooted in tomb raiding."

"But compared to those traditional tomb raiders who only rely on the I Ching for divination and make their way in the world with a compass and black donkey hooves, their methods are wilder and their knowledge is more diverse."

"Speaking of which..."

At this point, the sixth brother said somewhat reluctantly, "Actually, the Zhenling Division has to guard against more than just our family."

"For thousands of years, they have dealt with various factions, arrested people, and broken through barriers. Their skills have long been mixed together into one pot."

"It's not surprising that they know some of the tricks of the Mountain Moving School."
