After hitting himself hard on the head, Zhuang Rui did not rush to release his spiritual energy. Instead, he stood up and walked around the top of the small grotto.
Zhuang Rui's head was feeling groggy after spending the whole morning wandering around the caves in the mountains. The area of the underground caves was far beyond his imagination.
The maze-like caves are as dense as spider webs all over the ground. Even if Zhuang Rui has spiritual energy, if he enters hastily, he may not be able to get out in less than three to five days.
However, this morning's survey was not completely in vain. At least Zhuang Rui was able to infer from some artificial excavations that a large number of people had entered the underground during a certain period and carried out a large-scale project.
project.
This also shows that there must be a big secret hidden under the Alzhai Grottoes that is unknown to the world. Zhuang Rui does not believe that the ancients would dig holes underground for fun.
After wandering around the top of the mountain for more than ten minutes, Zhuang Rui sat down again, took a deep breath to calm down, closed his eyes slightly, and the spiritual energy in his eyes surged out and surged in all directions.
The blooming flowers at the foot of the mountain, the lamas chanting in the temple, the Buddha statues receiving incense all year round, and the thriving weeds on the prairie, all came into Zhuang Rui's eyes at this moment, intertwining a vivid picture.
"Damn, it's actually so big? It's several times bigger than the cave on Pirate Island..."
After staying briefly on the ground, all the spiritual energy released by Zhuang Rui poured into the ground. However, the vastness of the underground cave still surprised Zhuang Rui, who had been prepared for it.
The karst caves, which are entangled like a maze, cover an area of five or six kilometers, and the Arzhai Grottoes also cover an area of two or three kilometers. This means that there are other caves underground in this dense prairie.
An unknown space.
When Zhuang Rui's spiritual energy had not fully unfolded, he could not take the whole cave into his sight. After learning the lesson just now, Zhuang Rui did not try to distinguish the path in the cave this time, but directly took the spiritual energy in his eyes.
All were released.
"No? Still not? How is it possible?"
Seven kilometers, eight kilometers, until the distance in Zhuang Rui's eyes when the spiritual energy was released was about to reach the limit, he still could not find the imaginary treasure or the object with spiritual energy. This made Zhuang Rui, who was originally very confident, also become
Got a little anxious.
Ten kilometers away, when the spiritual energy in Zhuang Rui's eyes covered the entire ten-kilometer radius underground, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a weak spiritual energy in a corner due north.
This made Zhuang Rui, who was almost desperate, feel a glimmer of hope in his heart. After the spiritual energy that penetrated deep into the ground was overwhelmingly recovered into Zhuang Rui's eyes, Zhuang Rui focused all his attention on the place where he had just discovered the spiritual energy.
"what is that?"
The object wrapped in spiritual energy is in the shape of a stick and is about two meters long. It should be an iron tool, but I don't know if it is because of the age that the spiritual energy contained in this object has almost dissipated.
After years of research on aura, Zhuang Rui came to the conclusion that it does not mean that as long as things are long in time, aura will exist.
First of all, most of the objects that contain spiritual energy are artificially made, except for natural gemstones that combine the spirit of heaven and earth.
The richness of spiritual energy contained in hand-made handicrafts is often related to the craftsmanship and integrity of the object itself. The age of production is not the only criterion.
Just like some of the famous ancient kiln ceramics described in the previous article, when they are intact, they have abundant spiritual energy and are extremely valuable. However, after they are broken, the spiritual energy is often lost, and their value is not as good as that of complete porcelain.
"It should be an iron rod or a spear..."
Zhuang Rui made a judgment based on the shape of the object. The thing itself contained aura, indicating that it should be artificially made.
"This...how is this possible?"
After Zhuang Rui paid attention to the object found underground for a while, he turned his attention to the surrounding environment. This survey did not matter. Zhuang Rui, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.
The place where Zhuang Rui found this object was a hundred meters deep underground. Through the survey of its terrain with spiritual energy, it was found that the place where the spear was left was nearly three meters high and nearly five meters wide.
A man-made tunnel of unknown length.
This place is about two kilometers away from the scope of the underground cave. In other words, this space that is wide and tall enough for horse racing was excavated by manpower. Even if the underground is an earth structure, such a huge project would not allow Zhuang to do so.
Rui was stunned for a while.
You know, there were no excavators in ancient times, and even the digging tools were very primitive. Not to mention how to solve the problem of underground oxygen and the whereabouts of the dug soil must be solved.
Even today, if you want to dig such a tunnel hundreds of meters underground, it is a major project that needs to be reported to the national department for approval. Zhuang Rui really can't imagine how the ancients did it?
The current two-kilometer range was only surveyed by Zhuang Rui using spiritual energy, and he didn't know how deep it was ahead. If nothing else, this tunnel alone would be a discovery that shocked the world.
Without too much hesitation, Zhuang Rui rushed down the mountain. He wanted to get to the end of the tunnel and see what secrets were hidden inside?
…
On the grassland directly north of the grotto, Peng Fei and Dr. Ren were exchanging affection with the two newly acquired horses. When he saw Zhuang Rui approaching, Peng Fei quickly got off his horse and greeted him.
"Brother Zhuang, why don't you inspect the grotto today? Come and see, my white rabbit is very obedient now..."
As Peng Fei spoke, he stretched out his fingers and whistled in his mouth. Sure enough, the white horse walked up to Peng Fei with its head wagging and its tail, stretched out its big head and rubbed Peng Fei's head.
"How's it going? Brother Ren's horse is far worse than mine. It's the kind that can't be held back and goes backwards..."
Peng Fei smiled proudly. In the past two days of horse racing with Dr. Ren, he always won but never lost. He vented his depression about riding a yellow dot and eating ashes in the past few days.
"Just brag. If you can afford it, wait three months and let's compare again?"
Dr. Ren said unconvincedly at the side. He had never ridden a horse, let alone trained a horse. Qianer's horse ran a little faster and almost fell off the horse, so racing with Peng Fei was not a good idea.
Repeated battles and defeats.
"Brother Ren, don't pay attention to this kid. He trained in horseback riding in his early years. You definitely can't compare with him..."
After Zhuang Rui revealed Peng Fei's background, he looked at Peng Fei with a look of disbelief and said, "Peng Fei, is your White Rabbit really that good?"
"Of course, although it can't compare to Brother Zhuang's Zhuifeng, I think it's not much worse than Red Blood..."
Peng Fei raised his head and replied triumphantly. After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong and shouted at Zhuang Rui: "Hey, Brother Zhuang, my horse is called White Rabbit, not Big White Rabbit...
…”
Except for the white rabbit toffee in the early years, which had no ambiguity, over the years, when the term white rabbit was used in literary works, it was often used to describe certain plump, white, and smooth human organs. Therefore, the more Peng Fei thought about it, the less it tasted in his mind.
.
"Okay, White Rabbit, just White Rabbit..."
Zhuang Rui answered absentmindedly, and then said: "Peng Fei, you are so awesome, how about letting me ride for a lap? My Zhuifeng is going to Brother Battle's gathering place..."
On the summer grassland, there are lush green grass everywhere, and the deepest part is often as high as half a person. Zhuang Rui didn't want to run to the underground tunnel with his feet, so he made an idea for Peng Fei. Before Peng Fei could
Agreeing, Zhuang Rui reached out and took the reins of the white horse.
"This...this is my horse..."
Peng Fei looked at Zhuang Rui pitifully, wanting to stop him but didn't dare. He had not forgotten where his horse came from.
"Okay, brother, I'll help you train me. Is there anything else you're unhappy about?"
Zhuang Rui glared at Peng Fei angrily, grabbed the reins with his right hand, stepped on the stirrup with his right foot, and exerted force at the same time, riding his whole body on the horse.
"Lulu..."
The white horse didn't know that the person riding on him was the boss of his boss. Zhuang Rui unexpectedly rode him on him, and he immediately became uneasy. He twisted the horse's head and started running, trying to jolt Zhuang Rui.
Seeing that his little white rabbit didn't want Zhuang Rui to ride on him, Peng Fei looked a little gloating on his face and shouted loudly: "Brother Zhuang, you see that the white rabbit doesn't obey you, so you'd better get down quickly. Don't blame me if you fall..."
"Young man, are you still convinced?"
Zhuang Rui smiled and cursed, raised his left hand and tapped the horse's head lightly, and a ray of spiritual energy penetrated into the white horse's skin, and the originally restless white horse suddenly stopped.
"Let's go..."
Zhuang Rui raised the reins in his hand, and the white horse under his crotch neighed loudly, raised its front hooves high, and then galloped forward after making a winding pose.
"Damn it, was Brother Zhuang an animal tamer in his last life? All animals were obedient in his hands..."
Peng Fei from the back looked dumbfounded. He had slept with the white horse in his arms for three days, but it was not as effective as Zhuang Rui's gentle slap. This made Peng Fei feel full of frustration.
Zhuang Rui had no intention of paying attention to what Peng Fei was thinking. Following the guidance of the spiritual energy in his eyes, Zhuang Rui galloped all the way north. More than ten minutes later, he arrived directly above the ground where the spear with spiritual energy was located.
"I don't know how long this tunnel is..."
After jumping off the horse, Zhuang Rui stamped the soil under his feet. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhuang Rui would never have guessed that there was something else a hundred meters underground.
