Chapter 21: The underground palace cave is like a fairyland
The landforms of underground caves are all kinds of strange. This is the result of long-term erosion of groundwater. Due to the different degrees of erosion, special underground caves are formed, which are steep and beautiful, with strange scenery.
The ancients had great faith in the things in this cave, and believed that this miraculous natural wonder was the natural underground palace. Therefore, the fairy scene of the underground palace mentioned in the message should refer to this place.
Feng Yu continued to walk in with his second uncle. He had a lot of experiences along the way, more exciting than any year in his seventeen-mile life. If he hadn't followed him in person, listening to the stories would not have been as exciting. Although he was surprised,
There is no risk, but this kind of excitement and tension will never happen.
Several people walked in the underground cave and marveled at its environment. They worked hard all night and had no intention of seeing these. Today, they took a closer look and it was really eye-opening.
Lu Guangcheng looked at the time on his pocket watch. It was 4:50 in the morning the next day. Since entering Night Vale, it can be said that regardless of day and night, the concept of time has become very thin. Lu Guangcheng looked at his pocket watch and calculated in his mind.
Taking advantage of the time, I felt that it was more than enough to save my eldest nephew.
Feng Er led the way and told Feng Yu who was standing next to him about the structure of this place. He said: "Shangqiu is located south of the Yellow River. It was an important city in ancient times. It used to be called Guide, and the place we are stepping on
This place is the imperial mausoleum of Guide City in the Yuan Dynasty. This place is less than fifty miles east from the outside of the city. The valley is deep and forested, and the sun is not visible. The terrain is like a snake entwined to drink water, which is rising upwards. There is a natural underground palace and fairy scene at the bottom of the valley.
I have excellent luck, and I have taken advantage of the right time and place.”
Feng Yu nodded, thoughtfully. Under the light of the torch, those stalactites were full of strange things. It was not only the first time for Feng Yu to see them, but also the first time for others to see them in most of their lives.
Lu Guangcheng didn't quite understand what Feng Er said, so he simply asked: "Second Master, this place is really an underground fairyland. I have been busy for most of my life before I know that there is such a good place. The war outside is a mess, but this place is good.
Secluded and chic, what does that sentence mean? It's called... what's Taoyuan called?"
"Utopia." Feng Yu said.
"Yes, yes, it's a paradise. When I save enough money, I can bring seven or eight women with me and live here. Wouldn't it be a different experience?"
Feng Er scolded: "Look at your potential, such a good Feng Shui treasure land is really a fucking waste."
"Feng shui is changing, and the tomb owner of Guide City's Guide Mansion is worthy enough. It's my turn, Lu Guangcheng, to enjoy it. What's up? Second Master, do you want to join in the fun?"
Feng Er did not answer, rolled his eyes at Lu Guangcheng, and continued to tell Feng Yu something else.
"Yu, do you know now why your second uncle forces you to practice martial arts?"
Feng Yu replied: "First of all, practicing martial arts can strengthen the body and enhance the yang energy in a person. Secondly, my Feng family is engaged in underground business, and practicing martial arts is used to master various techniques and ways of survival."
"Yes, that's well said. Although you are the only heir of the Feng family, you have already mastered the seven-level essentials. It won't be long before you are ready to fight on your own."
After walking in twists and turns in the cave for more than ten minutes, a fork appeared. Unexpectedly, the underground road was not only twists and turns, but also had branches. It was like an underground world, completely different from the Night Valley above.
world.
Feng Er stopped and shined a torch at the two forks in the road.
"Second uncle, this underground cave is really big. I wonder where the two roads will lead?"
"Indeed, I did not expect the scale of this underground cave, but one thing is certain. The craftsmen who built it came from one of them."
Lu Guangcheng, who was walking behind, came up and asked, "Second Master, how do we leave?"
Needless to say, Feng Er's ability was so great that he walked to one of the roads, smelled the smell, picked up a piece of dust from the ground, put it on the tip of his tongue and tasted it, thinking with drooping eyes, and tried the same method on another road.
Read it again.
This method uses the method of tasting the soil in the art of mountain viewing. Feng Yu knows it, but has never seen it. Even if his second uncle demonstrated it, he couldn't master it because the soil has different flavors, only those that have been under the soil all year round.
Only people can know what it tastes like. It requires experienced experience, not just a few days.
Feng Er stood on the left side, pointed with the torch in his hand and said: "This way!"
Feng Yu and Mingyi immediately followed, followed closely by Lu Guangcheng and Dalei.
Feng Er then smiled with Lu Guangcheng and said, "Lu San'er, your eldest nephew should be meeting soon. Don't get too excited later. Let's organize the conversation first."
Lu Guangcheng didn't believe it and asked: "Second Master, why do you say this? Is it really so magical? Is the method of observing mountains and tasting soil so powerful?"
"That's not true. The soil in the cave is so thin that you can't taste anything at all."
Lu Guangcheng questioned: "If you can't taste it, how do you know this is the way?"
Feng Er pointed and said: "This road has a smell."
"What does it smell like?" Lu Guangcheng became more and more outrageous as he listened. He had no idea how Feng Er could figure out that this was the path.
"It's the smell of human activity, it's your eldest nephew Zhang Xiuxian."
"My eldest nephew Xiuxian? How do you know it's him? What if it's someone else?"
"What if? There is no such thing as a chance. If there is a chance, who else do you think could be in this underground place? Could it be a living rice dumpling?"
At this point, Lu Guangcheng didn't say any more. He also hoped that the smell in Feng Er's mouth was that of his eldest nephew, which would be better than meeting some zongzi. He had just experienced the danger of wild mountain monkeys, and Lu Guangcheng really didn't want to have any more troubles.
something.
The cave began to wind downwards, and by the second half of the road, it was basically completely man-made. Needless to say, Feng Er didn't need to say anything. Everyone knew that this place had really entered the underground imperial tomb of Guide City.
, Feng Er’s decision seems to be absolutely correct at this time.
When they completely left the cave, they came out of a hidden intersection. The outside was very dark and vast. Just as Lu Guangcheng said, this place was really a paradise, a different world.
Feng's eyes were clear and clear. Although the darkness was extremely dark, he could judge from the echo of his footsteps that the place below was as unpredictable as an abyss.
Feng Er took a firework from his bag and was about to light it up to see what kind of place this place was. At this time, Feng Er, who had keen ears, seemed to hear some other strange noises.
"Shh... don't move, don't make a sound." Feng Er stopped and reminded several people.
There were really other voices coming from the darkness, and they definitely did not belong to them, but from the darkness.
Feng Er's torch shone in front, and the four people behind held their breaths. Feng Yu had never been so nervous before, Lu Guangcheng's face was pale, Mingyi leaned next to Feng Yu on guard, and Da Lei raised his gun and was ready at any time.
emission.
The voice was long and ethereal, like some kind of words, but I couldn't tell what language it was. It was probably because there were other movements involved. Feng Er understood what he heard. He was hesitant in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak.
.
Until a voice was clearly heard saying.
"Quickly put out the fire, it will attract snakes."
The voice was very close, not far away. Lu Guangcheng heard the shouting. No one was more familiar with it than him, so he asked into the darkness: "Xiu Xian? Is that you? Xiu Xian?"
