Chapter 60: A Message from Hundreds of Millions of Years Ago
The oxygen content in the underground space is relatively scarce. Fortunately, the underground forbidden area is relatively closed, the space inside is not small, and you can go out from the underground river to the outside world. However, the places that can be reached from the underground forbidden area are themselves smaller than
The underground forbidden areas are even more dangerous.
"What a big space." After entering the forbidden area, Hansen took the lead and walked in front of Chen Ziyun. He did not dare to let Chen Ziyun take risks. He also could not afford the consequences of Chen Ziyun's accident.
"This way." After standing still for a moment, Chen Ziyun quickly found a general sense of direction. Among the inheritance left by the high priest in his consciousness, there is a map of the underground forbidden area. However, the map is not complete. Only the places that Chen Ziyun and his party passed through
The underground forbidden area is the secret place of the Staninians. Although Chen Ziyun is also the guardian, the high priest will not open all areas of the forbidden area for him.
The brilliance of the searchlight soon filled the entire underground space. The forbidden area was very humid. The wet ground was covered with moldy moss, and there were clusters of unnamed mushrooms that looked like Ganoderma lucidum, but were smaller than
The leaves of Ganoderma lucidum are small, with a faint light blue color on the surface, flashing with little bits of fluorescence, and many flying flies hovering above, making this silent world a little more lively.
However, Chen Ziyun knew that neither these flying flies nor mushrooms were simple existences. His eyes were like a torch and he saw the yellowing and black human bones under the mushrooms. There is no doubt that these skeletons should be Staninian people.
It was left behind by teenagers who had an accident while searching for bloody amber, and eventually died in this place. Their flesh and blood nourishes the underground world and breeds all kinds of strange creatures.
"This is the Soul-Gathering Mushroom," Ye Ya said with a look of surprise on his face when he saw the shimmering fluorescent mushroom, "There really is such a thing here! Haha, I earned it!"
This was the first time that Ye Ya was so proud. Chen Ziyun frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask: "Soul-Gathering Mushroom, what did it come from?"
However, Ye Ya waved her hand to signal everyone to stay away from her and the mushroom bushes on the ground, and asked Chen Ziyun to come over and said: "The Soul-Gathering Mushroom is a very precious medicinal material that can condense the energy of death. If one is placed on a living person,
The essence will soon be sucked dry by it. But for some people who are on the verge of death, it is a life-saving elixir. It can also absorb the death energy from people and extend their lives to a certain extent. But
This is not its greatest effect," Ye Ya paused at this, "The greatest effect of the Soul-Gathering Mushroom is to prevent the corpse from decaying. If a Soul-Gathering Mushroom is placed on the coffin, before the Soul-Gathering Mushroom dies, the corpse will
It will not rot. However, this kind of thing is so rare that there is no written record in the world."
Chen Ziyun nodded, indicating that he somewhat understood Ye Ya's words, but he was even more confused. Why did Ye Ya need the antiseptic Soul-Gathering Mushroom?
Looking at Chen Ziyun's confused eyes, Ye Ya smiled faintly without saying anything clearly. She just said lightly: "Having this thing is equivalent to having a life-saving magic weapon." As she said that, she carefully picked a plant and took it out from her body.
A jade box sealed the Soul Gathering Mushroom inside.
"Don't ask, I won't tell." Ye Ya directly blocked what Chen Ziyun wanted to ask next.
"Boss, we have discovered something," Hansen's voice came from a distance, "This place is very weird, it seems to be a large petrified forest."
Hearing this, Chen Ziyun couldn't help but look at the surrounding environment carefully. The stone walls were almost covered with a layer of mold, and there were thick moss in many places. At Chen Ziyun's signal, Kunnier pulled out a small shovel and put it on
When the wall was peeled hard, the moss on the stone wall peeled off one after another.
"Perrified wood?!" Under the illumination of the light, Chen Ziyun discovered that the wall actually reflected a faint halo and had very clear wood grains.
As an archaeologist, Chen Ziyun recognized at a glance that these were petrified plants. Petrified wood is not uncommon in nature, but most of them are pine-type petrified wood. In China, the petrified wood found in Xinjiang is relatively large.
There are many, but Chen Ziyun pays little attention to them abroad. But Chen Ziyun can hardly imagine that in Africa, where deciduous broad-leaved forests are the main plants, there are also silicified wood bushes, and he is inevitably a little surprised for a while.
"Boss, come here quickly! Something strange!" Hansen's voice suddenly became louder.
Chen Ziyun's heart tightened and he strode towards Hansen's position.
There were already several people surrounding Hansen. Most of them had strange expressions on their faces. When they saw Chen Ziyun, everyone had strange expressions.
In front of Hansen was a cylindrical piece of petrified wood. The petrified wood was astonishingly large, with a diameter of at least more than twenty meters. It was unknown how tall such a giant tree was. However, the shape of the giant tree was not what frightened Hansen.
"Boss, look!" Hansen pointed at the top of the petrified wood and said in a trembling voice, "There are words on it!"
"Is there a word?" Chen Ziyun narrowed his eyes. It is not unusual for someone to carve words on the petrified wood. It may be the last writing of the Staninian people, or it may be the suicide note of an explorer who accidentally entered this place. Look along the light
, I saw a line of words as big as a bucket but shocking: "Chen Ziyun, leave me alone, leave here quickly, don't believe it...live well!"
Chen Ziyun's face suddenly turned pale. There was a loud bang in his head, and he shouted loudly: "Xiao Wu! How could this happen!" The voice suddenly rang out and quickly reverberated throughout the underground forbidden area. Everyone's expressions changed again. This loud sound
The sound is enough to attract many creatures in the underground forbidden area.
"This is Xiao Wu's handwriting!" Chen Ziyun's hands kept trembling. He could tell at a glance that these handwritings were not carved on the petrified wood, but actually on the giant wood!
How is this possible! The formation of petrified wood not only requires a harsh geographical environment, but also takes a long time, and this time can easily take tens of millions of years. How could Wang Xiaowu go back hundreds of millions of years to leave him a message!
"It makes no sense at all!" Chen Ziyun was in a state of confusion. Wang Xiaowu's handwriting carved on the giant wood looked messy, obviously hasty, and was damaged. The handwriting behind the four words "Don't believe it" was also damaged.
The destruction was obviously deliberately erased by someone with intentions! But what we know is that Chen Ziyun must have known this person, otherwise Wang Xiaowu would not have left such a warning.
"Huh..." Chen Ziyun exhaled a breath and said to himself: "Chen Ziyun, calm down, calm down!"
Zen Seventeen left a message to take away Wang Xiaowu. Could it be that Chan Seventeen did something to Xiao Wu? Chen Ziyun thought secretly in his heart. But in his heart, he instinctively believed in Chan Seventeen and believed that Chan Seventeen would never do anything unfavorable to Wang Xiaowu.
things.
"Weird." Ye Ya looked at the writing on the petrified wood, shook his head thoughtfully, and then said to Chen Ziyun: "I think there is no need to worry about anything happening to Wang Xiaowu now.
