“Impossible, there’s a crocodile pool?” When Xi menna saw the crocodile, she immediately frowned.”Didn’t you say that there’s no danger? Why is there a crocodile?”
“F * ck …” Zhao Yu cursed in his heart, feeling a little annoyed.
He had originally wanted to join the party and experience the fun of being rich. However, he did not expect that besides the perverted maze, crocodiles would also appear.
There were crocodiles everywhere in the pool. Some were lying in the water, motionless, while others were crawling slowly in the water, revealing their terrifyingly huge jaws. It was very scary.
“This is …”
After observing the terrain, Xi Mengna and Zhao Yu quickly noticed that there were many tower-like frames on top of the crocodile pool, and the frames were connected to many small bridges.
However, the small bridges were not interconnected, and there was no way to cross them.
“Oh … I understand!”
Xi menna reacted quickly. She took a step forward and came to the first tower on the shore. There was something that looked like a turntable on the tower.
“I’ve seen this before. It’s called ancient Egypt turntable chess,” Simone introduced.”It’s a small game based on ancient Egyptian astronomy. It’s not very complicated to play …”
Xi menna looked at the chessboard seriously. In less than ten seconds, she started to move the chess pieces on the board and took two steps.
As a result, the tower in front of them immediately rotated, turning a small bridge to the ground under their feet.
“What … What do you think?” “Let’s go!” Xi menna raised her eyebrows proudly and snapped her fingers at Zhao Yu. With me here, we will be able to pass through the crocodile pool!”
After she finished speaking, she stepped onto the small bridge first.
However, after Zhao Yu saw this, he did not follow her onto the bridge, but made a “you first” gesture, which meant that he did not want to go on the bridge with her.
“Hmph!” Xi menena squinted at Zhao Yu.”Don’t say I didn’t warn you, the bridge might be taken back. There’s a famous Chinese saying,’once you’ve passed this village, there won’t be another shop like this’…”
“No, I’m afraid of crocodiles!” Zhao Yu waved his hand and said,”you go first!”
“Okay.” Xi menna looked at Zhao Yu with disdain.”Then I’ll go have lunch first. You can stay here hungry and thirsty!”
With that, without hesitation, Xi menna walked along the small bridge and headed to another tower.
When she reached the second tower, she quickly found another chessboard. However, the second chessboard was obviously different from the first one.
“This is …” Xi menna recalled.”This is some kind of chess from ancient Greece. It seems to be related to the colors of the rainbow …”
As she spoke, she took out her phone to search for information, but there was no signal at all.
“Tsk tsk …” The detective pouted helplessly. After seriously recalling for a moment, she had no choice but to try it herself.
Fortunately, this kind of ancient Greek chess was not difficult. She found the method after fiddling with it a few times. Soon, she opened the third tower and turned another small bridge to her feet.
Following that, she did not stop as she walked along the bridge to the third tower. However, when she saw the chessboard on the third tower, her expression changed.
“Oh no…” She mumbled in a low voice,”isn’t this China’s Huarong Dao?” That’s troublesome. I’ve played with it before when I was young, but I’ve forgotten all about it …”
As she spoke, she tried to move a few chess pieces and shook her head with a bitter smile.””There shouldn’t be a problem in solving it, but … It will take a long time! Oh, right …”
It was only then that she remembered Zhao Yu. As Zhao Yu was from China, he might have a better understanding of the Huarong Daoist than he did.
Thinking of this, she quickly turned around and waved, wanting to ask Zhao Yu to come over and help.
However, just as she turned around, she was shocked by what she saw. Zhao Yu had rolled up his pants and swaggered into the suanni crocodile pool!
“Hey!” “Zhao Yu, what are you doing?” Xi menna screamed in fear.”Do you want to die?” Hurry … Hurry up and come out …”
However, Zhao Yu didn’t care at all, and continued to walk stubbornly into the crocodile pool.
“No, no, no…” Xi menna grabbed the bridge’s handle and shouted,”this lunatic, lunatic … If you do this, it’s too late even if you force the administrator out.” Eh?”
Unexpectedly, just as Xi Mengna finished her exclamation, Zhao Yu bent down and reached into the water, then grabbed a crocodile!
This time, Xi menna was completely dumbfounded.
The crocodile that Zhao Yu had dragged out of the water only had the upper half of its body. The lower half of the crocodile was an empty wooden shelf.
“Ah?” Xi menna was shocked and mumbled,”they … They’re all fake! This …”
The next second, Zhao Yu threw the fake crocodile into the pool, then reached out to grab a crocodile that was crawling. Then, Zhao Yu threw the crocodile into the pool. The crocodile broke into pieces, and many electronic components fell out.
“This … This is fake too …” Xi menna’s mouth was wide open. She could not believe it.
“Hmph!” Zhao Yu laughed coldly and wiped his hands. He then walked along the pool to the bridge where Xi menna was.”Miss detective, Do you understand now? the crocodile pool was not a test of intelligence at all, but of our courage!
“Come …” Zhao Yu extended his hand to Xi menna.”Come down!” Just like a maze, Grimm’s goal is to let us find a shortcut!”
“Mm …” Xi menna looked at Zhao Yu carefully and asked worriedly,”is the water deep?”
The water in the pond was only up to Zhao Yu’s knees, and it was already obvious. So, Xi Mengna was not asking if the water was deep, but whether the water was dirty.
Zhao Yu immediately understood and patted his shoulder, saying,””Come, this time, you can ride on my neck!”
“Mm …” As Zhao Yu had thrown her once, Xi Mengna was obviously a little hesitant. She was worried that Zhao Yu would use the same trick again and take advantage of her.
“Don’t worry!” Zhao Yu laughed.”I’m an upright person!”
“Mm …”
Xi Mengna pondered for a while, but chose to believe Zhao Yu. She immediately flipped over the railing and sat on Zhao Yu’s neck again.
This time, Zhao Yu was completely willing to do so. Of course, he would not make things difficult for the detective again.
Then, Zhao Yu waded through the water and walked straight to the other side of the crocodile pool.
“I don’t understand …” Xi menna asked in confusion.”How do you know that these crocodiles are all fake?” It’s so realistic that I can’t tell at all …”
“Hehe …” Zhao Yu laughed lightly.”Haven’t you heard of crocodile tears? I found that the eyes of these crocodiles were all dry.
“Also, the crocodile skin floating on the water is too dry. Crocodiles don’t let their bodies dry to maintain their body temperature.
“Of course, those crocodiles that are moving also have a fixed route of movement. It can’t help but be suspicious!”
“Oh …” This time, Xi menna was completely convinced. She admitted,”it seems that my analysis of you was wrong. You’re indeed not as good as I thought!”
“You flatter me, you flatter me!” Zhao Yu was proud of himself.”I’m just humble, wise, and like to keep a low profile. Hehe …”
Gulp …
Xi menena was stunned by Zhao Yu’s attitude and swallowed unconsciously.
