When they stepped into the cave, they only felt one thing, and that was heat. And this heat was not the sweltering heat they felt on the suspended bridge. On the suspended bridge, they just felt the temperature was high, just like the continuous high temperature and hot summer, but
It's different here, it's like jumping into a stove and being roasted by the fire.
In fact, they were indeed roasted by the fire at this moment, but this was because what appeared in front of them when they got into the cave was nothing else but a blazing sea of fire.
What is the scene in front of me? It is like the cave of the immortal that often appears on TV. What appears after entering the cave is "small bridge and flowing water".
Not only is there a lake, but there is also a bridge, and the green smoke floating on the lake makes the entire cave shrouded in smoke, making it look hazy, and everything is like a fairyland on earth.
If this is really the case, then it would be for the best, but the key point is that the lake is not filled with clear water, but magma with bubbles of all sizes. What is even more surprising is that the surface of the magma is still burning.
The fire, the flames got higher as it went to both sides, and even the entire rock wall was burning when it reached both sides. The flames were seven or eight feet high, with dragons and phoenixes dancing in the air. Together with the bubbling magma surface like a frying pan, the entire rock wall was burning.
The scene looked extremely horrifying.
Not to mention Mr. Hou and the Huang brothers and sisters, even Chen Ran could see sweat dripping from his forehead. Half of the sweat was caused by the fire, and the other half was caused by being frightened.
But after all, Chen Ran had already used Dan Qi to detect it. Although his scalp was numb, he knew that now was not the time to be stunned. He saw that Xiaoyu, Wu Bing, and even Mr. Hou and Sun Li were all stunned by the scene in front of them.
They were stunned in shock, and quickly reminded them: "Staying here will only make it hotter. Let's go towards the cave. It shouldn't be so hot in front."
Chen Ran said this not because his alchemy energy detected something. In fact, although he was using his alchemy energy to explore the way forward, he not only had to use his alchemy energy to move his whole body to protect himself, but also created two shields.
They were protecting Xiaoyu and Huang Lele respectively. When he was doing the experiment, he only made a protective shield, but it only took a while to consume all the alchemy energy in his body. It can be imagined that the current treatment for him
Fortunately, he has enough black ghosts now, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to withstand such a consumption. What's more, this cave gives him a very dangerous feeling, and his Dan Qi needs to be tight.
Monitor the movements around him so that he can detect danger in advance.
In addition, the smoke here has seriously affected his alchemy detection, so that the range of his alchemy detection is only five or six meters away, but this distance is enough for him to react if he finds danger.
, there is actually not much use in going any further, it can at most satisfy his curiosity.
So his elixir energy didn't detect anything, but it was his guess. The weirdo told him that he and his comrades stayed in this cave for several days. If this is the case in this cave,
With his temperature, let alone several days, it would be good if he could stay here and survive for half a day.
Of course, Chen Ran wasn't all guessing. To be honest, until this moment, he was still half-convinced about the weirdo and what he said.
Another reason is the little guy named Blood Cup.
When the little guy stayed near him, he didn't feel anything. Now that he was far away, he suddenly made a surprising discovery, that is, through the wonderful feeling between the little guy and him, he could actually pass through the little guy.
The kid's senses are used to sense the environment where the little guy is, but the farther away they are, the fuzzy the senses become.
From this, although he didn't use the alchemy energy to detect it, he had been sensing it through the little guy. In his vague sense, the place where the little guy was now seemed not so hot.
The longer you delay here, the more dangerous it will be, so after Chen Ran finished speaking, he took Xiaoyu and walked forward quickly, and Huang Lele naturally followed.
Wu Bing reacted and followed Chen Ran without hesitation. Huang Shaopeng looked back at Mr. Hou and quickly followed him, sweating profusely.
"Well, let's go and have a look in front. If it doesn't work, you can go back."
Although Mr. Hou has a lot of experience, he has never seen such a scene before. His skin was burning hot at the entrance of the cave, let alone the inside. This made him a little hesitant and didn't know whether he should go in.
However, seeing that Chen Ran had already entered, he could only grit his teeth and follow Sun Li and Liu Qing.
Just as they imagined, the temperature got higher as they walked forward. Less than half the distance, the temperature had almost reached 70 degrees. Except for Chen Ran, Xiaoyu, and Huang Lele, President Hou and the others
They all felt like they were being roasted, and there was an obvious smell of meat on their bodies, and each one of them was suffocated. This was because at this time they did not dare to breathe at all, take out a breath, and then inhale again.
When I'm angry, I feel like my throat and stomach are on fire.
By this time, Mr. Hou already regretted coming in, but he had already come so far. If he regretted it, he would have to go on in one go, but he obviously couldn't hold on any longer.
Chen Ran is naturally fine as he has the elixir energy in his body, but in fact Chen Ran is not relaxed, because his entire nerves are tense. Not only does he have to distract himself from protecting Xiaoyu and Huang Lele, but he also has to be on guard at all times.
With dangers arising and the distraction of exploring the way, it can be said that he was the least relaxed among the group. As a result, although he didn't feel like he was being roasted, he was still sweating constantly.
The most relaxed ones were undoubtedly Xiaoyu and Huang Lele. They were covered by the shield made by Chen Ran using Dan Qi and could hardly feel the temperature outside.
Huang Lele had been tortured to a state of disgrace for a long time. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a walking dead. Naturally, she didn't notice this, but Xiaoyu did, and she could clearly feel the warmth from Chen Ran's hand holding hers.
A steady stream of cool feeling came from my right hand.
This cool feeling entered her body and spread to all parts of her body. With each wave, her body suddenly felt more comfortable.
She knew Chen Ran's ability, so she naturally guessed what was going on. Originally, she was worried that Chen Ran's continuous supply of such aura to her and Huang Lele would make Chen Ran lose his strength, but after hearing about Chen Ran
As long as she continued to absorb the energy from the black ghost stone, she would be fine, and she felt relieved.
Xiaoyu and Huang Lele were secretly looked after by Chen Ran, but others were not so lucky, even Wu Bing was no exception.
It's not that Chen Ran doesn't want to help Wu Bing, it's just that he really can't care.
After all, Wu Bing was a soldier. Although his face was red from holding back his breath and his skin was burnt red, he could still hold back his breath. The same could not be said for Huang Shaopeng, who was following Chen Ran with him. His whole body was almost
He was all dizzy, and now he was a little unconscious. If Wu Bing hadn't been holding him aside, he would have fallen down directly.
Zhang Yang is worse than Huang Shaopeng, but his perseverance is obviously not as good as Wu Bing's, and he is already a little confused. Fortunately, with his survival instinct, he has not fallen behind.
The worst performers are undoubtedly Mr. Hou and Liu Qing. Although Mr. Hou has a high position, he only participated in training when he was young, but now he can no longer do it. He is not as good as Huang Shaopeng. After all, Huang Shaopeng was young and he had fainted just now.
, but fortunately Sun Li was stronger and carried him on his back.
Liu Qing's health was not bad at first, but because Chen Ran was biased against him, he didn't take good care of his body while on the road, which made his body worse than Mr. Hou's. Although he hadn't fainted yet, he was still in poor health.
Already fallen behind.
Chen Ran naturally knew the situation of everyone behind him, but he was helpless now. He could only take Xiaoyu and Huang Lele out quickly, and then he would return to help them.
What caught him off guard was that when he was at the entrance of the cave, he felt that the distance between the little guy and him was only about a hundred meters, which made him think that he could just walk through it.
, but who knew that the bridge they walked on the sea of fire was not a straight road, but a roundabout. Why did it go around, because the lava under the sea of fire was very strange, with many places like fountains.
It seems that the volcanic eruption has not completely erupted and there is still residual heat erupting. The magma erupted in these places is less than ten feet high, and the height is more than ten feet high. If you encounter something like this, you have to go far away.
Speaking of which, I have to talk about the bridge under their feet that surprised Chen Ran. The bridge was black as a whole and it was unknown what material it was made of. It actually had the function of warding off fire. When used as a bridge,
The flames in the sea of fire will automatically extinguish when they touch the bridge, and the flames on both sides of the bridge will never burn to the top of the bridge.
Chen Ran even speculated whether the bridge had a suppressive effect on flames. Otherwise, there were almost no flames near the bridge, and the flames would grow higher as they extended to both sides.
Moreover, this bridge also has a driving effect on the thick smoke on the lava. This reminds Chen Ran of the time when they crossed the suspended road. The suspended road also has a driving effect on the thick smoke.
Chen Ran felt that the two should be the same material, but one of them has been processed a little bit.
Before this, Chen Ran had heard that a stone tablet once collected by the Forest of Steles Cultural Relics Protection Center in Hangzhou could also ward off fire and suppress flames.
The name of that stone stele is called Pihuo Stele. It is said to be an item from the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Of course, it is said to be an item from the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It just means that the stone stele appeared during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It does not mean that it was built during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
of.
During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, most of the houses in Hangzhou were wooden houses, which were connected to each other and were easy to catch fire. In order to ensure safety, a Taoist named Chen Qijin, who is equivalent to the president of the university today, presided over the presiding of four fire-preventing monuments, one of which was
It was placed in front of the Guandi Temple in Zhong'an Bridge, which is now the intersection of Qingchun Road and Zhongshan Middle Road. One piece was embedded in the wall of Drum Tower, one was placed in Shuixing Pavilion, and the other one was placed at that time. I can't find the exact information.
Confirmed by law.
There are four fire-preventing tablets, each nearly a person tall. The top is engraved with the three characters "fire-preventing picture", and a complex pattern below, which looks like an enlarged seal. According to research, the winding patterns inside are the seal characters.
A variation of the font - Jiudiwen, the meaning of the text is written in the pattern: the essence of one and six, the turtle and snake form.
According to expert translation, these eight characters describe a legendary god - Emperor Zhenwu, also known as the Xuanwu God.
Legend has it that Emperor Zhenwu belonged to water, and was "born from the Taiyin, the essence of the water level." He could control water and reduce fire, and relieve the troubles of water and fire. Therefore, many Zhenwu temples were built in the palaces of the Ming Dynasty to pray for protection from water and fire disasters.
The Fire Stele treasured in the Forest of Steles in Hangzhou was the one that was placed in front of the Guandi Temple at that time. The other three can no longer be found.
The preserved stone tablet has the function of warding off fire. When the flame reaches the stone tablet, the flame will be slowly extinguished, instead of continuing to burn through the stone tablet.
When Chen Ran heard about it before, he just took it as a story, but he didn't believe it at all. Now he didn't expect to see such a magical thing.
It's just that Chen Ran can't figure out why someone would build such a place here when the temperature here is so high. What puzzles him most is undoubtedly how it was built. Not to mention other things, it's just that it's built on magma.
This bridge is really incredible.
In addition, how did the people who built this bridge cross this bridge? The temperature here is so high. Although Wu Bing and Zhang Yang may have a little less physical strength because they haven't eaten enough and haven't drank water, but even if they are fine, so
The temperature is so high that it is very difficult to pass even after such a long detour, unless the water is very abundant, but there is no water replenishment here, so no matter how much water you bring, it will not be enough.
And how did the weirdo and his comrades get through.
The most unlucky person was undoubtedly the Third Master. Obviously, he had just entered the cave when he met the weirdo. The weirdo was so unconscious that he probably thought he was an enemy and chased him down.
Chen Ran didn't think much about it. Huang Shaopeng had already fainted by this time. Even Wu Bing was a little confused. Although Zhang Yang was holding on, he was a little behind. Sun Li was better than the others, but he
But he had to carry Mr. Hou on his back.
Chen Ran knew that he couldn't delay it any longer. If he delayed it any longer, someone would definitely die. Although his elixir energy could regulate the body, it could not bring people back to life.
Chen Ran told Xiaoyu about the situation, and Xiaoyu asked him to carry Huang Lele on his back, and then the two of them ran wildly together.
Fortunately, by this time they were actually almost at the end, so they ran along this magical bridge for less than a hundred meters and reached the end.
After reaching the end, Chen Ran was stunned for a moment, and then he finally figured out a problem.
After understanding this problem, he immediately became excited.
