Wang Wentao was suddenly pulled by Chen Ran. He staggered and almost squatted on the ground. Fortunately, Chen Ran was supporting him from behind, so he did not squat down. After he stood firm, he lowered his head and saw that he suddenly felt like
A basin of cold water poured down on his head, immediately chilling him from head to toe. Just in front of his feet, the ground of the stone chamber passage suddenly changed from flat ground to a bottomless cliff.
.
The light from the headlight illuminated the mist-filled cliff in front of him. Wang Wentao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He felt as if his clothes were suddenly stripped off. His whole body was so cold. If it weren't for Chen Ran's blow,
, he stepped down and fell straight down. The cliff in front of him was filled with water mist, and it was also pitch black. Who knew what was underneath? If he fell, he would probably not survive.
"Good boy, you saved my brother's life!" Wang Wentao pursed his astringent lips, turned around and patted Chen Ran heavily on the shoulder. Although he didn't say many words of gratitude, the infinite gratitude in his heart was reflected by this slap.
The truth was passed on to Chen Ran.
"Brother Tao is out of town."
Chen Ran was also shocked into a cold sweat. Although he kept releasing the energy aperture to detect, he did not pay attention to the ground. Who would have thought that while walking, he would suddenly come to an end in front of him?
It's still a cliff. Isn't this a trap?
In this passage, in addition to being pitch black, there is also water mist. Although the water mist above is very thin, there is still mist below. If Cao Lin and others did not shine their headlights on their feet and observe carefully,
, it is difficult to see their own feet clearly.
Wang Wentao was walking in front. Of course, the headlight above his head could not shine on the ground all the time. It only occasionally swept across the ground. In addition, although the headlight was high-power, the distance it illuminated was not very far, let alone
The headlight shines very far, but the line of sight may not reach this distance. Wang Wentao's line of sight is only within two meters. The cliff in front is also filled with water mist. Naturally, he cannot clearly see the passage in front.
At the end.
Fortunately, Chen Ran had night vision, otherwise not only Wang Wentao would have fallen, but even he himself would have been a little dazed.
"What's going on?"
Cao Lin and Wang Zhiqing, who were following Chen Ran, also stopped and each asked questions.
"Attention everyone, you must be careful when you come here. The passage ends here. There is a cliff in front of you. Be careful, don't panic, and walk step by step!" Wang Wentao slapped Chen Ran on the shoulder.
, he quickly reminded the people behind him.
After being reminded by Wang Wentao, everyone who was originally curious immediately became cautious.
After reminding everyone, Wang Wentao and Chen Ran crowded at the end of the passage and looked forward carefully. Under their feet was a large crack seven or eight meters wide. The top of the crack was filled with water mist. It was estimated that there was something inside the stone chamber and the passage.
The water mist floats up from this big crack.
Not to mention Wang Wentao, even Chen Ran couldn't see clearly how deep the crack was. It was obvious that it was not shallow below. It was really shocking at a glance, and it made people feel scared in spite of themselves. What's more,
Where is Wang Wentao, who almost fell just now?
"Brother Tao, there is a road from here to the other side!"
Chen Ran's eyes were as clear as day in the dark night. He could clearly see at a glance that there was a natural cave at the end of the passage. It was just that there was a big crack between the cave and the stone chamber passage under their feet, but soon
Chen Ran discovered that there was a small platform on the right side of the end of the passage that was large enough for one person to pass. There was a rope tied to the edge of the small platform to act as a railing.
After being reminded by Chen Ran, Wang Wentao also looked towards the right side next to the wall. He used the headlight to shine for a long time before he could clearly see what this small platform was about.
"Xiaoran, you have really good eyesight."
After seeing it clearly, Wang Wentao sincerely praised Chen Ran. This compliment was not only because Chen Ran could clearly see that this small platform could lead to the opposite side, but also because of what happened just now. Chen Ran gave him a hand just now, which was equivalent to
How could he not be convinced after saving his life?
Of course, he also sincerely praised Chen Ran's eyesight. Thinking about it just now, he was walking in front and Chen Ran was following behind. In this dark environment, they didn't dare to get too close, just for fear of appearing like just now.
In this scenario, the person in front suddenly stopped, and the person behind bumped into him, so he was knocked down all of a sudden, so there was still some distance between the two people.
And in this pitch-black passage, let alone seeing clearly the situation in front of the person in front, it would be good to be able to see clearly what is in front of you. Even though you have a high-power headlight on your head, the light of the headlight
It is different from the light bulb. The light bulb can illuminate the entire stone chamber, which is divergent illumination, but the headlight is targeted illumination, which is concentrated light. In short, he followed Chen Ran.
He definitely couldn't realize that there was a cliff in front of Chen Ran.
Although Mr. Ma and the others behind him didn't know what happened, after hearing Wang Wentao's words, they understood that there must have been an emergency. Chen Ran took action to save Wang Wentao's life, which made them all secretly nod in their hearts.
It was just that it was not the right time to speak, so I remained silent.
Wang Wentao lay at the end of the passage and jumped onto the small platform with a slight jump. After jumping on, he looked back at Chen Ran and motioned Chen Ran to come over. After looking at the railing made of rope, he reminded
: "Don't hold on to the rope. The rope may break if you hold it for a long time."
The small platform was still very wide, about two meters wide. Chen Ran jumped over and was caught by Wang Wentao. Wang Wentao turned sideways and let Chen Ran pass first. He himself stood on the edge of the small platform, greeting everyone.
Then Cao Lin and the others came to the end of the passage. After Wang Wentao's reminder, they could easily see the cliff in front of them. However, although Wang Wentao had reminded them, they still couldn't help being shocked when they saw the big crack.
Breaking into a cold sweat, my mind instantly thought of what happened just now. I couldn't help but secretly wiped my sweat for Wang Wentao and secretly praised Chen Ran.
Although there is a cliff at the end of the passage, it is still very simple to jump onto the small platform. It is as if a road suddenly turned in one direction and you just have to step over it. As long as you don't go forward, you will be fine. Wang Wentao stood on the edge of the small platform and pulled everyone over.
They all took it over and reminded them not to grab the railing on the side.
This time, Chen Ran walked in front, but he was not far ahead. Despite this, he was much more cautious than before. Not long ago, he was detecting with the energy aperture. In fact, it was like a naughty boy suddenly got a
Like a fun toy, after what happened just now, he no longer has that mentality, but seriously releases the energy aperture to detect...
After making a detour, I jumped into this natural cave. The place is much larger. There is a pool of water in the middle of the cave. Stalactites of various sizes and shapes are scattered on both sides of the cave. There are also many stalactites hanging upside down on the top of the cave. At the end of the cave,
There are crystal water droplets dripping into the river, making a crisp and sweet ding-ding-dong-dong sound.
"Why is it so cold?"
As soon as she jumped into the cave, Guo Xiaohong couldn't help but exclaimed. Unexpectedly, before her exclamation could fall, the entire cave was filled with echoes one after another. The echoes came from all directions, including from the stone chamber.
The sound coming from the passage is either from under the cliff or from other caves. Sometimes it is extremely clear, sometimes it is as if it is coming from hell, sometimes it is like singing loudly, and it just keeps sounding like this.
No intention of stopping at all.
It rang for a long time and did not stop. Everyone present couldn't help but focus on Guo Xiaohong. Professor Yue glared at her. Guo Xiaohong smiled coquettishly and wanted to explain that she hadn't
When she opened her mouth, Yan Ruyu, who was standing next to him, quickly grabbed her and signaled her not to speak. Guo Xiaohong immediately stuck out her tongue and closed her mouth tightly.
The echo lasted for a long time. Chen Ran and the others waited for the echo to disappear. Unexpectedly, after waiting for more than ten minutes, it showed no sign of disappearing. In desperation, everyone stopped waiting.
Professor Yue and Mr. Ma both carefully observed the cave here. They seemed to be very interested in this cave. They even took out their notebooks and recorded something in their notebooks. Wang Zhiqing also took out his camera and took pictures.
This cave is indeed a bit cold. The outside world has already reached April, and the clothes are not very thick, but inside it is a bit like being in an ice cave. While Wang Zhiqing and the others were busy, Chen Ran
Standing aside, he released the energy aperture for detection. He explored the cliff below, but he still did not reach the bottom when he reached the maximum distance that the energy aperture could detect.
Then he explored the water pool in front of him. Although the water pool was not big, it was quite deep. He also did not explore the bottom.
While Chen Ran was detecting, Yan Ruyu and the others were also idle. Yan Ruyu also got a small bottle from somewhere and filled the bottle with stalactites. Li Hongji seemed to have recovered at this moment and was also observing curiously.
He was looking at the cave, but his eyes were glancing at Yan Ruyu from time to time.
About ten minutes later, Wang Zhiqing said to everyone: "Let's keep going and try to explore this mysterious place as soon as possible." At this moment, Wang Zhiqing was indeed anxious. Of course, he was not impatient, but excited.
No matter what you encounter next, judging from the current situation, the value of this mysterious place will not be lower than the value of a mausoleum.
His words immediately caused echoes to resound in the cave. Together with Guo Xiaohong's voice earlier, it was so noisy that everyone couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Professor Yue and Mr. Ma didn't dare to speak, so they nodded.
There was a naturally formed entrance in front of the cave. Everyone still followed the previous order. Wang Wentao walked at the front. Chen Ran was originally squeezed to the back, but he squeezed over again. He knew very well that in fact, there was an energy aperture.
He is more suitable to be at the front.
It's just that some things are difficult to explain clearly. If he were to be at the forefront, I'm afraid not only Mr. Ma, Wang Zhiqing and the others would be unwilling, but even Wang Wentao would definitely not agree.
In this way, he could simply follow Wang Wentao so that he could remind him when he encountered a critical situation.
The next step is to pass through one cave after another.
After passing through about a dozen caves, when he was about to pass through the next cave, Chen Ran's expression suddenly changed and he quickly grabbed Wang Wentao who was walking in front: "Brother Tao, wait a minute!"
[Even if I can't adjust my work schedule, I'm sorry... the red ticket the day before yesterday was very powerful. Yesterday, I didn't ask for the red ticket, so it suddenly dropped. It seems I still have to ask for it from time to time...]
