Chapter 380: The splendid civilization in the deep underground
Feng Yu and the others rested for a while. Looking at the clock, it was already late at night, and the rain continued to penetrate into the ground. The vitality of this place seemed to have never diminished.
Water is the source of all things. Where there is water, there is life. There are many mountains in western Hunan, and the growth of trees creates a natural area.
Feng Yu glanced at Zhang Xiuxian and Lu Guangcheng. The three of them looked at each other, feeling that Jin Yulong had probably found the entrance.
After calming down, Feng Yu cleaned the rotten mud on his legs and feet. The places bitten by leechworms were wet, red and purple, and blood flowed out of them. Over time, they would inevitably become infected, so he simply took some medicine.
, stepped into the mire again, and had to continue walking on the road ahead. Suddenly, Feng Yu felt a sense of fate that had been arranged, and he couldn't help himself.
Feng Yu stood up with difficulty. He walked to Cheng Bing and wanted to see what the so-called source of the Earth River looked like.
Feng Yu came to the edge of the swamp, and Cheng Bing had been standing here. Although his field of vision was limited and not as vast as the top of the mountain, he could still feel the endless space in the dark swamp.
It was dark and quiet ahead, with a river flowing slowly over the mire. The deeper the water went, the thinner the layer of mire beneath my feet became.
Fortunately, there were many huge roots in the swamp, and Feng Yu could step on them.
Cheng Bing told him that the bottom of this source is one of the entrances to the tomb of the Han Dynasty and a source of living water. Only in the rainy season will the ground water on Shiziling drain out.
There is only one real entrance to the Tomb of the Han Dynasty, but there are many sources of ground water. It is uncertain whether the one in front of you is the real entrance.
Feng Yu was exhausted after hearing this. This is not the entrance. Do they have to look for the next one? Lion Ridge stretches hundreds of miles, when can they find the end?
"Brother Cheng, no, you have to prove it. Is the one in front of us real? If not, do we still have to find the next one?"
Cheng Bing rarely smiled. He was much older than Feng Yu. He comforted Feng Yu and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Feng. If you can't trust me, can you still trust me, Uncle Jin?"
Feng Yu was at a loss for words, and suddenly he felt a wind blowing in. There was wind and water, wasn't it the so-called Feng Shui treasure land?
"Brother Cheng, you are very familiar with Shiziling. You can lead the way to this place. You are absolutely right."
Cheng Bing shook his head and pointed at the swamp in the darkness and said, "Actually, that's not the case. The weather is unpredictable. Although the terrain of the mountains is not ever-changing, on Lion Ridge, the changes in the mountains are more unpredictable than the sky."
Feng Yu stepped on the root of the wood and as he spoke, he saw an ancient pattern on the root. The pattern looked like it was made by hand. After looking carefully, he found that it was actually
It is a complex decoration, with a large part of the wooden roots soaked in water, and it seems to have some kind of shape.
Feng Yu carefully removed it from the wooden root. This kind of wooden root had been soaked in water for an unknown length of time and could still remain so strong. It was indeed different from the previous wood.
Feng Yu asked in confusion: "Why are there words on this wooden root?"
There are indeed words on the wooden root. Among the decorative stars, there is something like words, which looks particularly ancient and mysterious.
Cheng Bing did not feel how strange it was, and he said calmly: "There used to be an ancient city full of flowers in Shiziling. After the Han king of Guangjun State obtained the land, he built a mausoleum on this ancient city. In the abandoned ancient city, there are
The unique underwater system connects the interior of the mountains. If my guess is correct, this ancient city must have been very beautiful and was a city on the water."
Feng Yu became even more confused, "City on the water? You mean the tomb of the Han Dynasty King of Guangjun was built on it? Then where did this city on the water come from?"
Cheng Bing shook his head indifferently, "There's no way to trace it, no one knows."
Cheng Bing said lightly: "What we see now are just rare. The water city is very large. Coupled with thousands of years of silt and rainwater irrigation, as well as the construction of the tombs of the Han Dynasty, the already mysterious place is full of
The unknown.”
Feng Yu had an indescribable feeling. In ancient times, the prosperity of a civilization would inevitably be accompanied by decline. Failure was not inevitable, but a process.
If this place is really like Cheng Bing said, the tomb of the Han Dynasty must be an extraordinary place.
Cheng Bing continued: "Little Feng Ye is the Taibao of Guanshan. I have heard about it for a long time. I have heard a lot of stories about your Feng family. I won't talk about the grievances of the predecessors. Let the past be in the past. This
This is probably the best opportunity to enter the tomb of the King of Han for the first time. After walking for half a night, you guys take a rest first, I will continue to keep an eye on it here, and I will notify you if there is any situation."
Feng Yu didn't say anything. He didn't know what Cheng Bing was waiting for. It would be useless to talk more. Feng Yu nodded slightly and returned again. There might be a deeper secret hidden under the muddy swamp.
Everyone is exhausted. Although this place is drier, it is just a little bit stronger than underwater. Fire cannot be made, and the sweat on the body is sticky, making it very uncomfortable.
After being soaked in water for a long time, the skin on the legs and feet turned white. Jin Yulong used some herbs to quickly scar the wounds bitten by leechworms. This method cannot cure the root cause, but is just to make everyone smooth.
Finish the road behind.
Cheng Bing has been standing in the mire and observing. Unlike Feng Yu and the others, his body functions are much more adaptable to humid environments.
Zhang Xiuxian has been guarding his uncle, and it has been quite difficult, but everyone understands in their hearts.
This is just the beginning. If the tomb of the Han Dynasty had been so easy to enter, it would have been robbed many years ago.
Jin Yulong and Yunyang were also watching the movements in the swamp. The water source was flowing very slowly. Only those who could find something in it could understand.
In a place like this, even people who know Feng Shui are at a loss. The complexity under the river in Shiziling is not what it seems on the surface.
During the break, Feng Yu did not completely relax. In the dark environment, there was always an inexplicable sense of fear. It felt like there were a pair of eyes staring at them in the darkness.
After an unknown amount of time passed, a layer of mist filled the air. The conditions were very abnormal. The rainwater from the upper layer through the cracks in the trees continued to flow down, and accompanied by a gentle breeze, it was difficult for the fog to form.
There was only a ghost lamp under their feet, and it looked like mist in the dim light. Before they knew it, the water level of the Dihe River had risen a lot. It was close to where they were. I believe it wouldn't be long before this area would be flooded.
.
Feng Yu glanced at Yunyang and Jin Yulong again. The two of them were already resting. Everything around them was extremely quiet. Cheng Bing couldn't see anyone in the distance. Feng Yu's sixth sense told him that something was wrong.
, but Jin Yulong and Yunyang didn't say anything, and they didn't want to make a fuss.
Feng Yu spread his eyes around and looked around. His intuition told him that there was something fishy in the darkness in the distance.
At that moment, Feng Yu saw a figure in the darkness through the dim light of the ghost lamp. Because of the fog, he couldn't see clearly. At first, Feng Yu thought it was Cheng Bing.
But it was not the case. After Feng Yu opened his eyes and looked carefully, he saw that the figure was not as big as ice and was covered in mud. Only the outline could be vaguely identified as a person.
Feng Yu held his breath and swallowed. He didn't know if the figure was also looking at him. The distance between them was about ten meters, and he couldn't even tell whether they were male or female.
Feng Yu wanted to call someone, but was afraid that he would be mistaken. He stared at it for a moment. In the haze, he realized that the figure seemed to be a real person. There were a pair of eyes looking at Feng Yu and the others in the mud and water all over his body.
It's so big that you can still see it even from a few meters away.
At this time, Feng Yu didn't have time to think about anything and just shouted.
"Holy shit, what is that?"
Jin Yulong and Yun Yan were leaning on the outside. In an instant, they opened their eyes and looked towards where Feng Yu was talking about.
The figure flashed very fast, and in the blink of an eye, all that was left was a ripple in the mire.
Where did the person go? Disappeared in an instant?
Feng Yu was very sure that he saw it correctly. It was something that really appeared. Could it be that it escaped into the mire?
