Chapter 12: Still drowned? (Ch 12)

Chapter 201: Still drowned?
The Third Master turned his head and saw a black stone dragon floating on the water.
“Can stones float on water?”
The third master looked surprised!
Jinlian was anxious: “It’s already this late, why are you still worrying about stones!”
“Hurry up and find a way to save Lao Han!”
The Third Master’s face darkened, but he shook his head. He didn’t even know what this so-called magic plate was used for, so how could he save people?
Seeing that the Third Master was silent and bubbles gurgling in the water, Jinlian whispered to Heipi in a deep voice, “Bring your brother-in-law up!”
“We fought them!”
Heipi hesitated for a moment, but nodded.
But unexpectedly, the young man’s cold eyes suddenly looked at her: “I advise you to break through the level honestly!”
“Otherwise, not only will we not be able to save him, but you won’t be able to survive either!”
Jinlian gritted her teeth, her eyes full of anger.
The young man turned his head away with disdain and raised his head: “Can’t you please the demon god?”
“Why not ask that demon god how to crack the immortal disk!”
“Haha, I still don’t believe it!”
Jinlian’s pupils dilated, and she immediately looked at Zhou Cheng: “Brother Zhou Cheng, quickly ask Brother Xuan!”
Zhou Cheng quickly raised his cell phone, but saw that Zhang Xuan in the camera was still calm.
“Brother Xuan, is there a way?”
Zhang Xuan nodded slightly, and his voice rang out in the air: “This is a water compass!”
“It is also one of the three treasures of ancient navigation!”
“It’s just a compass, but a little more complicated.”
“The stone dragon floating on the water is a natural magnet, but it is hollowed out inside, so it can float on the water.”
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did the eyes of the crowd light up, but even the young man frowned, with surprise flashing in his starry eyes.
But immediately, he snorted again: “So what if I know!”
“No one can pass the Immortal Plate!”
Zhang Xuan seemed to have heard what the young man said, but he just chuckled: “But this level is indeed a bit difficult.”
The enthusiasm that had just appeared in everyone’s eyes dimmed a little in an instant.
Zhou Cheng was surprised: “Brother Lian Xuan also finds it difficult?”
The young man showed a proud look.
But Zhang Xuan suddenly changed the subject: “Well, maybe I have to spend a few more minutes.”
The young man turned his head suddenly.
Zhang Xuan continued, “It seems that the order of these three levels is also specially arranged!”
“If there is no previous level, it may take some effort to pass this second level alone.”
“But with the first level as a hint, this level is much easier!”
“The first level tests your ability to control the sails and sail against the wind!”
“The second level of the water compass should test the heading!”
Zhou Cheng’s eyes lit up: “Direction?”
Zhang Xuan nodded: “The vast ocean is endless. The ancients did not have satellite navigation, so they could only use a compass to locate the direction in the vast ocean!”
“But the compass only points south and north, and the ancients believed that the sky is round and the earth is square, so if you want to find the direction accurately, you need a compass and a nautical chart as a ruler!”
“The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches on the stone platforms surrounding the pond are the rulers for locating the route!”
“Come on, climb up!”
Zhou Cheng was stunned: “Climb up?”
Zhang Xuan nodded: “If I guess wrong, the water compass should be connected to the pond by a mechanism. As long as the mark on the water compass is turned correctly, Fatty Han will float up from the pond!”
“Time is running out. If we delay any longer, a corpse will float up.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Cheng did not dare to delay and climbed up directly.
When the young man saw this, his face darkened again, but his eyes showed a hint of surprise.
The Third Master and his group looked at him with anxiety on their faces.
“alright!”
“What should we do next?”
Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Xuan on the phone again.
Zhang Xuan said slowly: “I have explained the principle to you clearly, but the difficulty lies in what is the route to open the mechanism!”
Zhou Cheng was shocked: “Yes!”
He suddenly looked at the young man: “How can we crack the mechanism if you don’t tell us the route?”
Who knew that the young man snorted: “I’ve told you everything, do you still need to break through?”
Zhou Cheng was stunned for a moment.
But Zhang Xuan’s calm voice soon came: “I can guess it even if you don’t tell me!”
Zhou Cheng immediately perked up: “Brother Xuan, can you really guess it?”
Zhang Xuan nodded: “Do you remember the route you took to enter the island?”
Zhou Cheng was stunned, and then looked at the Third Master: “Third Uncle, do you remember?”
The third master’s heart tightened: “It’s bad, the captain is still on the boat.”
“He’s the only one who knows the route!”
“It’s too late to find him now!”
Jinlian suddenly panicked: “Old Han should know, but he is in the water!”
Zhang Xuan also frowned when he heard this: “The route you took to enter the island should be the mechanism to activate the water compass. Without the route, there is no way to crack the mechanism!”
Everyone’s heart sank and they suddenly panicked.
But at this moment, Song Linglong suddenly stepped forward with a serious expression, staring at Zhou Cheng’s phone: “Brother Xuan, I know the route!”
Zhou Cheng looked at Song Linglong in surprise: “Do you really know?”
Song Linglong nodded: “I was worried about the captain, so when I came here, I paid special attention to the route.”
Zhou Cheng immediately showed joy: “Brother Xuan, Linglong knows!”
Zhang Xuan nodded, and a fiery light appeared in his calm eyes: “Okay!”
“Tell me about it!”
Suddenly, everyone looked at Song Linglong.
Song Linglong took a deep breath and said, “Leave the port and head east for 170 nautical miles, then turn north for 700 nautical miles, then turn northeast for 150 nautical miles, and you will reach Sanxian Island!”
Zhou Cheng took a deep breath: “Brother Xuan?”
Zhang Xuan blinked slightly, and after a moment his eyes suddenly became sharp again: “Listen to me!”
“There are two circles of the water compass under your feet!”
“The Qian, Kun, Li, Kan, Zhen, Xun, Gen and Dui on the inner stone ring represent the eight directions!”
“The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches on the outer stone ring represent distance!”
“Combined with the stone dragon in the center, it can guide the direction!”
Zhou Cheng took another deep breath: “Yeah!”
“And what to do?”
Zhang Xuan: “Turn the inner stone ring clockwise and align the dragon head with the Kun position!”
Zhou Cheng took a look and indeed found the Kun position, so he put down his phone, bent over, and turned the inner stone ring vigorously to align the Kun position with the dragon head!
“alright!”
He raised his phone towards the position he had just adjusted.
Zhang Xuan nodded: “Very good, then turn the outer stone ring clockwise!”
“The number of Dayan is forty-nine, which is the distance of one revolution of the celestial sphere.”
“One hundred and fifty nautical miles means turning one small square, with the Ding position facing the dragon’s head!”
Zhou Cheng immediately rotated the outer stone ring a small square!
“Crack!”
A subtle sound actually came from under the stone ring.
Although the sound was subtle, everyone heard it.
The Third Master was shocked: “Is it true……”
Zhou Cheng instantly gained some confidence: “Okay!”
Zhang Xuan: “Yeah!”
“Next, aim at the dragon’s head!”
“Then turn it four and a half times and use Si to deal with the dragon head!”
“Remember to go clockwise and slowly, and stop immediately when you hear the mechanism go off!”
Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and took action again.
With the experience just now, he was familiar with the process this time.
After two turns.
Sure enough, the subtle clicking sound was heard again.
The crowd became more and more excited.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, a look of disbelief emerging in his eyes!
Zhang Xuan: “Very good!”
“For the last time!”
“Zhen position, Chen position is aimed at the dragon head!”
Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and slowly turned the stone ring!
“Crack!”
A subtle sound suddenly came!
He stood up slowly.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes fell on the pool of water!
Even Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Wow~”
The spring water in the pond suddenly surged up!
A round figure suddenly emerged from the water!
Jinlian and Heipi’s faces changed drastically and they rushed forward screaming.
The third master’s pupils tightened: “Did he drown again?”
