Chapter 194 Do you think this is ginseng fruit? [Third update]
"To be honest, I don't dare to guarantee the vote!"
Hongze smiled bitterly, "If that old Taoist man hadn't lied to me back then, I think it would have been right here! He probably didn't have to lie to me. I gave him a large sum of money at that time..."
Hong Ze's breathing was already a little rapid. The water mist brought by his breath condensed on the mirror of the night vision device and turned into a thin layer of ice, making his vision very blurry.
He has already used up one bottle of oxygen, and it is a blessing to be able to get here.
The paint spray in Chen Muyu's hand had long since frozen, so he had to use the engineer shovel he brought with him to carve out traces on the ice on the cave wall as a mark.
“If you can’t bear it, get out first.”
Chen Muyu reminded him again.
“It’s okay, let’s walk for a while.”
Hong Ze was obviously not willing to accept it, and he actually passed Chen Muyu and walked to the front.
Having just taken a road, it is a dead end. You can only go back to the previous fork in the road and choose another one.
If this road fails again, then you can only go back to the previous fork in the road and choose another road. If there is no other fork in the road at the previous intersection, then go back to the previous fork in the road until you get rid of the one in the cave.
Walk all the forks in the road without missing any corner.
This method is very stupid, but it is the only method that can be used. Although it is time-consuming, it is also the safest.
It has been three or four hours since they came in. They don’t know how many roads they have walked through. This cave is like a natural maze.
The surrounding temperature has dropped to over sixty degrees below zero, and some of the instruments I carry with me are no longer very sensitive.
Seeing Hong Ze rushing forward, Chen Muyu also hurriedly caught up. This old man was very stubborn. If he encountered any danger and died in this cave, wouldn't he have been in vain? Then the 400 million,
Who should I go to?
“Brother Chen, come quickly!”
Hong Ze’s voice came from ahead.
Very excited, trembling with excitement, obviously something has been discovered.
Chen Muyu hurriedly ran over. The cave wall in front of him opened up and suddenly shrank, forming a cave door within a cave.
Hong Ze has already walked into the door and is standing one or two meters inside.
Chen Muyu walked in, and Hong Ze quickly reached out to stop him. At this time, Chen Muyu lowered his head and saw that there was nothing in front of him.
There is a feeling of sudden enlightenment in the ice cave.
Looking from left to right, you can see that this is a circular space with a diameter of forty or fifty meters. In front of it is a circular pit, which collapsed directly. It was so dark that it was impossible to tell how deep it was.
It was as if someone had inserted a huge water pipe straight down in front of them. Except for a small standing area where they came in, the surrounding ice walls were smooth and there was no room at all to stand.
It is simply a miraculous work of nature.
“Brother Chen, look quickly.”
Hongze pointed to the opposite side, very excited.
Looking in the direction of Hongze's finger, on the opposite ice wall, there were ice vines that looked like ivy ice sculptures, stretching up from the abyss below.
On the ice vines, fruits the size of thumbs hang here and there.
Looking through the night vision device, the ice vines and fruits are obviously a bit warm.
It is a living creature, not an ice sculpture.
“That’s the Dragon Yuan Fruit?”
Seeing how excited Hong Ze was, Chen Muyu asked.
“Yes, yes, that’s it!”
Hong Ze was very excited. That was the thing he used to save his life. He really wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly directly there.
“Don’t get excited.”
Ice vines grow on the opposite side, but there are none here. Maybe it was there before but not now.
After all, more than just the two of them must have entered this cave, there must have been people before. If there were ice vines growing here, it would have probably been visited long ago.
The rest can only be out of reach from the opposite side.
Chen Muyu checked it carefully and found that the surrounding ice wall was extremely smooth, with no place to draw strength from. If you want to get over, you will have to fly.
The temperature was measured and it was minus 65 degrees.
Hey guys, if you urinate like this, I'm afraid it will freeze into icicles in an instant.
They also used an infrared rangefinder to measure the distance. From where they were standing to the opposite side, it was about 53 meters.
Let’s measure the depth of the deep hole in front of us again. Unfortunately, the ambient temperature is too low, which seriously affects the sensitivity of the instrument. One moment it measured eight hundred, another moment it measured one thousand. In the end, it simply stopped working.
"Brother Chen, you can use an ice chisel to dig a few leverage points on the ice wall. There is a climbing rope in your backpack. If you hang the rope up, you should be able to reach the other side." At this time, Hong Ze was already studying fruit picking.
Methods.
Chen Muyu looked around and found that the method was actually feasible and not too difficult for Chen Muyu.
Seeing that Chen Muyu didn't answer, Hong Ze laughed dryly and said, "Brother, it's a bit strenuous, isn't it?"
At this moment, he has already passed through many methods in his mind. If it doesn't work, he can go back and pull a ladder, or use a fishing rod to fish, or use a drone...
But these methods were rejected one by one. The environment here is too harsh and those methods are simply unrealistic.
In the end, he could only focus on Chen Muyu. After all, he had promised 400 million. If it wasn't difficult, it wouldn't be worth the 400 million.
“What are the preservation conditions for this fruit?” Chen Muyu asked first.
Hongze was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Before taking it, you cannot touch it with your hands. You need to knock it down with a gold object and store it in a jade bottle. You cannot open the bottle frequently, otherwise it will not last long."
Chen Muyu rolled his eyes and said, "Let me go, do you think this thing is a ginseng fruit?"
Hong Ze said sarcastically and breathlessly, "This is what the old Taoist told me back then. You can only do what he said, otherwise you won't be able to afford the loss."
“Are you ready?” Chen Muyu shook his head.
“What’s wrong with you?” Hong Ze was puzzled.
“Gold vessels and jade bottles, you can’t let me prepare these things for you, right?” Chen Muyu said helplessly.
"oh!"
Hong Ze reacted, quickly took off a small bag from his waist, and took out a jade bottle the size of a small mineral water bottle, and a pair of golden tweezers.
Similar to the size of medical tweezers.
Chen Muyu took it. Because he was wearing cold-proof clothes and gloves, he couldn't feel the weight.
“Brother, how do you want to get there? How can I help?”
After showing the things to Chen Muyu, Hong Ze put the bottles and tweezers into his bag and prepared to get a rope and ice chisel for Chen Muyu.
“Okay, just give it to me like this.”
Without letting him put it in his bag, Chen Muyu took it directly.
Hong Ze looked at him in astonishment. If you hold it like this and occupy your hand, how can you move easily for a while?
Just when Hong Ze was about to say something, he saw Chen Muyu rising out of thin air and slowly floating towards the opposite side.
