Throwing it into the water, Dou Sprout clapped his hands and said, "This thing is not poisonous, don't worry, Brother Yu."
As soon as Brother Yu put on his pants, Xiaoxuan noticed it first. She shouted: "There are more! There are many more!"
I immediately used my flashlight to look underwater. Under the fast current, I saw a lot of these things swimming from nowhere. Maybe because of my degenerated eyes, these big tadpoles didn't react when I shined a strong flashlight on them.
These things do bite, not to the extent of cannibalism, but they can get into shoes and trouser legs and are very slippery.
"What the fuck! It's so disgusting!" Dou Sprout pulled several pieces off his trouser legs in succession.
After all, she was a girl, so Xiaoxuan screamed from time to time.
"Hurry up and leave this place." said the head anxiously. .??.??
We speeded up and walked forward through the water. We soon saw a bank where people could stand. When we came up and were far away from the river, we breathed a sigh of relief.
We have never seen fish in the water before, but after arriving here, in addition to this huge stone frog tadpole, we also saw some strange creatures here.
Like Ah Chun, she found a long cricket-like insect lying on a stalactite. She shone it with a flashlight, and it seemed that she couldn't hear human footsteps. When she walked in, she saw that it was not a cricket. This insect had very long tentacles, several
The legs are pure white in color. (I looked it up later and found that it should be called Cave Stove Horse.)
In addition to this kind of cave stove horse, I have also seen eyeless blind spiders, a yellow-green fungus growing on rocks, and an insect that jumps around. I have never seen it before and I don’t know what it is called.
The water here is fast, dark and isolated, and there seems to be a complete ecological chain of caves.
Unlike the desert, it is impractical to build a fire here. There is nothing to burn, and there is no daylight. All light sources can only rely on the flashlights in our hands.
Soon, we came to a waterfall.
It is said to be a waterfall, but it is actually a cliff. An underground river rushes down from the cliff, so the sound of the water is very loud.
Cliff Falls right hand fifth
Sixty meters away, we found the ruins of a low stone wall that had collapsed, and we presumed it was the previous toilet.
This proves that someone has been here before. It is hard to imagine how people live in such conditions.
Because the sound of the water rushing down was very loud, I raised my head and said loudly: "Look for them all! See where you can go around!"
"I know the clue!"
After searching for a while, Ah Chun called us and said, "Wang Boss, you should be able to get through from here, let's take a look."
We walked over.
I saw two pieces of limestone squeezed together. There was a very narrow stone gap close to the ground. Fat people couldn't climb through it. We are not fat, so we should be able to do it.
"I'll go first."
Ah Chun put down her backpack. She waved her headlamp, lying on her side, and easily passed through the cracks in the rocks. After she passed, we handed her the bag.
Several people climbed over one after another, and something went wrong when it was Brother Yu's turn.
"No, no, stop pulling, I'm stuck!"
Brother Yu looked troubled, and half of his body was stuck in a crack in the stone.
Dou Sprout's face turned red from suppressing it, and he wanted to drag him over.
"It hurts! Stop trying so hard!" Brother Yu shouted.
Ah Chun smiled when he saw this and said: "It's quite big. Both of us girls can come over, but you're stuck."
"Hold on. It's coming out soon."
Dou Sprout grabbed one of Brother Yu's arms with both hands. Brother Yu cooperated with him and tried his best to inhale and retract his stomach, so he slowly came over.
A very spectacular scene appeared in front of them, and everyone was stunned.
I couldn't take my eyes away from it, it was so big
I don’t know how to describe the miraculous workmanship of nature, it’s like a secret mirror.
Stalactites will grow even if they are broken, but they grow slowly. The top of the cave here is not high, probably less than three or four meters.
Strips of stalactites hung down from the ceiling of the cave. After they were broken due to gravity, a long, crystal-clear crystal grew out of the fracture.
These long transparent crystals hang down densely, just like a "crystal curtain" appears in front of us.
This kind of crystal-like long strip should be called "goose tube" in geology.
Goose tubes are the initial form of stalactite growth and development. They are rich in calcium carbonate and aqueous solution. They can generally grow one centimeter in a few decades. Natural caves like this are not polluted, resulting in goose tubes that grow from the top of the cave to be flawless and white in color.
Jade, so I call it Crystal Curtain.
I don’t know if this thing can be sold as crystal, because it looks very similar. If it can be sold as crystal and made into jewelry, it would be worth a lot of money. I saw Bean Sprout hiding a piece of it in his bag.
.
After passing through the goose tube area, I saw a few white bones scattered on the ground.
I knelt down and took a look, and asked, "Look, is this an animal bone or something?"
"It's not animal bones, it's human bones." Ah Chun said calmly.
"Human bones and dead people?"
At first, there were not many bones scattered here and there, but the further you went in, the more human bones there were, and you could easily spot one with a flashlight.
There are small finger bones and a thigh bone broken into several halves.
It's a bit strange, not a single skull was seen.
When we were doing this, we saw a lot of dead people's bones. I wasn't that scared, but I was surprised. I didn't know why there were so many bones here.
He stopped his head and asked me with a frown: "Yunfeng, do you remember that sentence?"
"On the stele of Guizai Temple
?”
"Under the head, the underworld is like a temple." Baotou murmured to himself, "Is this a kind of funeral culture?"
"Botou, you mean these bones are those of the people who mined limestone at that time? Then where are their heads?"
He looked around, frowned, shook his head and said, "I don't feel like this is a sacrificial culture, it's like some kind of funeral ceremony."
Let’s talk about funeral culture, that is tomb culture. Relevant experts once speculated that it was the mausoleum of Emperor Shun. This is wrong. Emperor Shun lived more than 4,000 years ago. Let’s not talk about whether there was a concept of “imperial mausoleum” at that time. Even if there was, in
In a cave environment with such high air humidity, it is impossible for such white bones to be preserved and will rot into slag.
Time must be pushed back.
After walking a few dozen meters further, suddenly, a deep pit appeared in front of us, with a circle of stones piled around the upper edge of the pit.
The pit is bottomless and very dark.
He raised his head and frowned and said, "Wen Bin, don't let us go down. You tie a flashlight with a rope and send it down for a look."
Brother Yu nodded.
Brother Yu first tied three flashlights together, turned on the flashlights, and slowly sent them down with a rope.
The three flashlights were placed next to each other and turned on as diffuse light, illuminating a large area. When they were sent downwards, they were like small suns, dispersing the surrounding darkness inch by inch.
Everyone lay down on the hole and looked down.
When the rope was halfway down, for some unknown reason, our flashlight suddenly started to flicker, as if the voltage was unstable.
"careful!"
Wow!
No one expected it, and I don’t know if it was affected by the strong light.
Suddenly a large group of bats flew up from the bottom of the cave.
And there are more and more, it’s overwhelming
