Everyone quickly ran towards the bottom of the ghost cave. When they were still thirty or forty meters away, Qin Yaomei's voice suddenly came from my mind: "Sir, wait a minute! There is danger ahead, leave quickly!"
"Wait a minute!" I shouted, and immediately grabbed Da Zhuang and Shui Yueqing.
"What's wrong?" the three people asked in shock.
I used my flashlight to shine into the shallow pit below the ghost cave, and immediately I found a lot of dust-like things spurting out from underneath the shallow pit. By the light of the flashlight, I could also see many filaments like maggots, shaking their heads and swaying their tails.
People felt itchy all over their bodies.
"Are those poisonous insects!? They actually sprayed out!" Shui Yueqing looked ahead in astonishment and said in disbelief: "I know, this disease is likely to be airborne!"
"It's too scary! So densely packed!? Let's run quickly, I don't want to be covered in this kind of stuff!" Xizi dragged several people back quickly.
After running back to the entrance of the cave again, Da Zhuang suddenly stopped and shouted: "Old Qian, help me take a look, there seems to be something in my neck! Hurry up!"
"Ah~, Brother Da Zhuang, did a poisonous insect fall into your neck!?" Xizi yelled and jumped far away in shock, but soon remembered something and ran over quickly and pulled Da Zhuang's collar open.
Carry out inspection.
I shined a flashlight and saw that Da Zhuang's neck was already red, and a big meat bag appeared in the middle. Xizi was so frightened that he almost cried: "It's over, it's over, Brother Da Zhuang, it's already got in!"
"Ah!? Really? Xizi, don't scare me! Old Qian, did it really get in?!" Da Zhuang was so frightened that he suddenly sweated profusely, and even his black face turned white. Da Zhuang
There are signs of wanting to collapse.
"Impossible! It's so far away, how could it fly into your neck. Besides, we are all here, you can't be the only one who is unlucky." I handed the flashlight to Shui Yueqing, and opened Da Zhuang's clothes vigorously: "
Don’t worry, it must be an insect bite!”
"It's an ant, I saw it!" Shui Yueqing said as he reached out and reached deep into Da Zhuang's clothes. He quickly grabbed an ant from inside and placed it in front of Da Zhuang's eyes.
Da Zhuang pinched the ant, worshiped it carefully, and then released it: "Fortunately, your real body is still there, otherwise I would have suffered from mental illness."
"How do we go this time?" Everyone returned to the place where branches appeared in the cave and stopped.
"I think if you choose any way to go up, 80% of the time you can reach the ground." Xizi said.
"Then let's take this one in the middle." Da Zhuang casually pointed to the hole in the middle and was about to walk in immediately.
"Wait a minute, I'll try it with my celestial eye."
When I opened the Heavenly Eye again, I was still aching from the previous injury. When I asked about the way forward, I could only vaguely see a few figures walking down in my mind, and then the Heavenly Eye was forcibly closed in pain.
"How is it?" Shui Yueqing asked.
"How come the celestial eye sees going down?" I also felt very strange. I took the map and looked at it. There is indeed no mark here. But about a few hundred meters away from here, there is a tunnel that leads directly to the underground. It should be
It is several hundred meters deeper than the ghost cave, and an "x" is drawn at the end of the cave.
Shui Yueqing suddenly understood. He took the map and pointed at the cave that led directly below and said: "Yes, it must be like this. Think about it, if all the caves going up can lead to the ground, Qian Long Ancestor
We have lived here for so many years, how can we not find it? There are no marks on the map, we can only say that these holes going up must be dead ends!"
"Then what should we do? There is no way down here. Besides, if we can get out from there, there should be marks on the map. There are no marks either, which means that going down and up are dead ends." Da Zhuang immediately argued.
"Go down." I said, "I believe in my own eyes."
Shui Yueqing pointed to the cave that went deep into the ground: "If Qian Long's Heavenly Eye's judgment is correct, if we go down from here, we will eventually find a road connected to this cave and eventually return to the ground along this road.
.”
Xizi looked up at the top cavity hundreds of meters high. It was formed when the light broke through the top of the altar when it was opened. It was from there that the lotus platform flew into the sky. Unfortunately, it was too high and the entire cavity was curved.
, like an upside-down pot, unable to climb: "It would be great if we could have wings."
"Huh! If I had wings, I would have flown away with the lotus platform." Da Zhuang is still grudges, and he may not be able to let go of his feelings in a short time.
Everyone went almost 100 meters deep into each cave before they found the only entrance to the bottom. This tunnel was much narrower than the others and very difficult to walk. There was no ground that could be called a road at all. I and I
The big man walked in front of him and the two women walked in the middle.
The slope of the cave is very large, almost reaching 60 degrees. The rocks on the surrounding cave walls have sharp edges and corners, and there is also a sparse layer of small shiny crystals attached to them.
When we walked about four or five hundred meters in, the sound of running water began to appear in front of us, and it sounded like it was raining. The big guy at the back suddenly became excited: "That's great, there is an underground river!"
"It's so deep underground, even if there is a river, we don't dare to go down. If you are washed into the underground water layer, the sky and the earth will not work anymore." I said as I walked forward.
Soon, several people saw what Da Zhuang called the "underground river". In the cracks in the rock formations above the cave roof, a large amount of water was dripping and making a gurgling sound, like a water curtain cave. I shined a flash inside.
According to the photo, the water curtain continues for tens of meters, and a small stream has formed on the ground at the bottom of the cave, flowing to the deeper bottom of the cave.
"It's over, we didn't bring wetsuits. We're going to freeze to death in this winter." Xizi stood at the edge of the water curtain cave, her eyebrows furrowed and she felt embarrassed.
I reached out and tested the water. It was very warm, about 30 degrees. Moreover, it was hundreds of meters underground and the temperature was already much higher. Although it could not keep up with the summer temperature, it was almost the same as in early summer. Several people were walking
In the process, the winter cotton-padded clothes have already been taken off. Moreover, the temperature will only get higher and higher as you go lower.
"The water is warm. It shouldn't be a big problem if you take a shower. If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?" I moved to a large rock next to me, leaving the open space for those behind me.
Xizi stepped forward and stretched out her hand to try it: "It won't feel cold if you try it, but it will definitely feel cold if it is wet on your body."
"I have an idea. Let's sew the two coats with ropes to cover our heads. It will definitely be much better." Shui Yueqing said as he took Da Zhuang's coat and mine over: "I'm sorry, gentlemen."
, your clothes are larger in size and more convenient to use."
Xizi and Shui Yueqing moved very quickly, connecting the two coats end to end. Just as they were about to set off, Da Zhuang hurriedly called to stop.
"What's wrong?" Shui Yueqing asked.
"Do you have anything to eat? I haven't eaten for a long time. I'm so hungry that my eyes are black." Da Zhuang sat down on the stone and looked at me and Shui Yueqing greedily.
I hurriedly took out all the food and placed it on a rock, then sat down: "Okay, I feel hungry too, why don't we eat something here, if there are water curtain caves all the way down, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat."
My mood is gone."
The two girls also agreed. Since Da Zhuang and Xi Zi didn’t have anything with them at all, Shui Yueqing and I provided all the food for the four of us. Everyone temporarily found a slightly flat rock as a stone table, and each of them
Found a stone bench
.I also have two bottles of tonic wine prepared by Dongfang Tiger in my backpack. According to the boy, these two bottles of wine are brewed with Xionghu’s stuff. They are very strong and stronger than some tonics. If you don’t
If you exercise quickly, your nose will bleed.
The two of us drank some wine and ate beef jerky and pancakes, and soon we were sweating profusely. According to Da Zhuang, it was a pity that we still lacked a few green onions. The two girls looked at each other for a while.
Greedy, Xizi came over and stretched out his hand to ask: "I want to take a sip too."
Da Zhuang chuckled and hurriedly stopped him: "That's not possible. This is medicinal wine brewed with special organs. If a girl drinks it, she will become sexually active!"
"Yang Dazhuang!!! You...can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!" Xizi curled his red lips, bit his teeth tightly, and stared at Dazhuang sharply with his two big black gem-like eyes.
"Nonsense, of course a dog can't spit out ivory. You don't have to glare at me. Although you look very tempting, I still want to tell the truth." Da Zhuang replied more sharply.
"Huh! I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" Xizi raised her pretty face and gave Da Zhuang a big white eye.
Shui Yueqing looked at the two of them, then at me, and couldn't help but laugh: "You two are really enemies. We are hundreds of meters underground now, and you two still have time to quarrel."
However, when I heard Shui Yueqing's words, I felt a little uncomfortable, a little bit sad and disappointed. I knew the reason for this, but I couldn't show it anymore. If possible, I would
This feeling has completely disappeared, because I am already very lucky to have Shui Yueqing.
"Other than miners, who else can enjoy leisurely dining so deep underground? Although our business is very dangerous, there are advantages and disadvantages. We can always experience experiences that others cannot and see scenery that others cannot see."
I couldn't help but sigh in a very literary way. To be honest, before I went to Yunnan, I was indeed a sultry man. I would always express a sigh from time to time. To put it bluntly, it was caused by my idleness. Since I inherited the family affairs
, I have very little time to express my emotions anymore.
Shui Yueqing came over and leaned next to me, hugged my arm casually, and smiled happily: "Only those who take the road that others have never walked before will have a wonderful life, such a life will be beautiful."
It took the four of them nearly half an hour, and after they had had enough wine and food, they got up and rushed into the Water Curtain Cave with two coats on. The ground here was still rugged and full of debris of different sizes.
The rocks are much rounder than before, but because of this, many round and large rocks are difficult to step on.
The water falling from the cave wall hit the coat with a loud bang, and soon the whole coat was soaked through. Big drops of water fell from below. Although it was better than the water curtain cave, it soon got all the clothes wet.
people's clothes.
After traveling through this water curtain cave for nearly half an hour, all the clothes of the four people were lost. The water under their feet became turbulent due to the continuous accumulation, and the water depth was almost ankle-deep. When I shined a flashlight forward,
Still can't see the end. Moreover, the sound of water flowing from the depths of the cave
Significantly increased. If Da Zhuang is really right and the water flows into an underground river below, then the four of them will be facing a desperate situation! Shui Yueqing is right. In such a deep underground, if there is still underground
If it's a river, it must lead to the underground water layer. Once inside, there is no hope of survival.
"Can't you see the end yet? If this continues, the entire cave will be filled with water." Xizi shouted behind me.
"I suspect that you two reliable people have made another major error in judgment. There is no way out from here. It is obviously a desperate situation!" Da Zhuang shouted at the end of his voice. Not only him, but also my confidence was shaken.
Okay, is the Sky Eye unreliable now? I tried calling Yaomei, but I didn't get any response.
The four of them continued to move forward, and after going deep for nearly three hundred meters, the Water Curtain Cave was still continuing, and the water flow in the cave had already reached the knee level. Coupled with the slope of nearly 60 degrees, one can imagine the speed of the water flow.
How fast should you go? If you are not careful, you will fall into the water and be bruised all over.
When we got here, I started to hesitate a little whether to go deeper because I discovered a very bad phenomenon. The cave in front was obviously much narrower, which also meant that the water flow was getting deeper and faster.
If you fall into the water, you are likely to be swept down all the way, which will really make the sky and the earth not respond!
"Do you still want to go on?" Xizi obviously noticed my hesitation and slowly stopped behind me.
Shui Yueqing and Da Zhuang also came up and looked at the water gushing down from the cave wall in front, which was also bleak. Da Zhuang pinched his thick fat waist and shook his head: "It seems that this trip was in vain.
, let’s go back the way we came!”
"Sigh——, we have walked nearly a thousand meters, and it would be too frustrating to just go back like this." Shui Yueqing sighed.
"Sister Qing, we are all the same, but we can't throw away our lives no matter how unwilling we are?" Xizi advised. Her big eyes, which were originally full of energy, now looked a little dull.
"Okay, you guys wait here, I'll go down and take a look." I said, and then took out the rope from my bag. The length of this rope was nearly fifty meters, plus the steel wire of the flying spring claw, it was enough for me.
Go deeper about a hundred meters.
"No, this is too dangerous." Shui Yueqing was the first to stand up and object: "The situation below is unknown, and it is too risky to go down alone."
"Because the situation below is unknown, sending one person down first is the best way to reduce the risk. Don't worry, I have a rope tied to my body, and with the Qin family ancestor's cultivation, there is not much risk." I comforted him.
Shui Yueqing's men didn't stop, tied one end of the rope around his waist, and handed the other end to Da Zhuang.
"Remember, if the rope becomes slack, don't come down to look for me. You should quickly return the way you came. I will find a way to survive." I left the three of them alone and quickly walked towards the depths of the cave.
"You kid must come back alive!" Da Zhuang yelled behind me.
"No matter what happens, don't let go..." Xizi said something else, but I couldn't hear it anymore. A large amount of backflow from the ceiling wall instantly poured all over my body.
After entering that narrow area, the water flow on the ground deepened significantly, almost instantly reaching the top of my thighs. I hurriedly used Qiankun Ding to shift my center of gravity downwards. The tunnel became much straighter here, like long elevators.
to the bottom. I used a flashlight to shine down, still
There is no sign that the Water Curtain Cave wants to end, but the water below is obviously much deeper, almost reaching half the depth of the cave entrance. If it reaches that position, I am afraid that the water will have reached my chest. Such a fast current,
Even if I use the Qiankun Concentration, it won't help.
Just as I was hesitating, there was a pulling force on the rope. I pulled forward to signal that I was safe now. Just when I turned my head forward again, a faint flash of color flashed deep in the cave.
Light. I hurriedly turned off the flashlight, and my body instantly fell into absolute nothingness. After a short period of blindness, a soft colored light was indeed glowing very far below the cave, like the entrance to a world.
"Can it be directly connected to the outside world?!" I couldn't help but said to myself, but I soon felt something was wrong. Zagrama Mountain is located on the slopes of Kunlun Mountain. There are no low-altitude valleys here. If you enter Zagrama from
Counting from the beginning of Mashan, we are estimated to have descended to a depth of almost two thousand meters. It is definitely deep underground! But what is that ball of colorful light? It is difficult for me to think of any object that can survive in conditions where there is no light all year round.
Naturally glowing.
When I thought about this, I couldn't help but have a strange idea in my mind. I remember an American blockbuster I watched a few years ago - Journey to the Center of the Earth, which described an extremely magnificent underground world. Is it possible that there really is an underground world?
And it’s right at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, and this cave can be reached directly?!
Of course, at this point, I couldn't just stop guessing. If we wanted to leave and move forward, I had to try my best to explore. After the rope was completely exhausted, I connected the flying spring claw again.
We descended another forty or fifty meters. But we were still far away from the colorful light. In desperation, I
I tried to open the Sky Eye again, but due to excessive consumption in the past, it was difficult to open the Sky Eye again. I don't know if I have been in the dark for too long, or if the light has a special allure. Several times, I couldn't help but use my hands.
I want to throw away the flying spring claw and rush towards that strange light!
However, in the end, reason prevailed, and I had to find a way to retrieve the rope and go further to explore. But just when I pulled the trigger and prepared to retract the flying spring claw, the rope suddenly loosened and broke! I staggered.
He didn't stand firm and quickly fell down the cave.
Fang Zhi went away. Even though I used Qiankun Ding, I still couldn't stabilize my body. The depth of the water here had exceeded my waist. I used Qinggong several times but couldn't get rid of the entanglement of the water. After a few breaths, I was rushed deeper.
