"Do you know the principle of this kind of thing?" The monk seemed very interested in this, and didn't seem to believe me. Because in the past, there were many powerful events in the series of events surrounding this "jade"-like stone.
People are involved, but no matter who they are, they have no real insight into the actual nature of "jade". The monk is also involved in those past events. Although the things have disappeared long ago, he is still eager to know the answer.
"I made a guess. It may sound a bit mysterious, but this is probably the only reasonable explanation." I said. In fact, the fact that I can make such a guess does not mean that I am very smart, but it just happened by chance.
After arriving at this place, coupled with some of Li Fusheng's previous explanations, I came up with relevant speculations.
The faint light at the bottom of the pit still continued, one after another, as if some light source was constantly emitting light. We didn't dare to go over and look, for fear of being affected, so we huddled in the depths of the hole, waiting for the Insect King himself to slowly
Aged and died. Taking this opportunity, I told them my thoughts.
"The people in this ancient city may have a fanatical pursuit and preference for time and space and time. They have studied these and achieved certain results." I pointed to the deep pit outside and said, "This jade pit is under the ancient city.
I don't know how this jade-like thing was formed, but the people in the ancient city built the city on the jade pit. It may not be a coincidence. They did it for the convenience of mining. It is also very likely that they discovered the jade pit first and then discovered the jade pit.
The city that was founded.”
I thought the monk was a rough guy who started wandering around the world at a very young age and didn't have much ink in his stomach, so I explained in as much detail as possible, but I was still not sure whether he could understand me.
"Time, space-time domain..." The monk frowned and chewed these words repeatedly. It seemed that this tall and thick man was not ignorant.
"Jade and blood are two necessary conditions. After the two meet, this strange jade may create a space that we cannot detect. This space still exists in reality, but within a certain period of time
, it is separated from the world." I continued: "Within the range covered by jade, the passage of time is different from that in the real world. It may be ten times, a hundred times or even more fast. No living thing can resist this.
Such a rapid passage, as long as you enter this range, you will rapidly age until you die."
The more I talk about it, the more it makes sense. With the level of technology in the ancient city, it is very difficult to create a space-time grid. As Li Fusheng said, what they rely on is probably not technology, but something strange. Now I finally understand
Yes, the people of the ancient city may have used this strange "jade" to create a small space-time grid.
"Is the answer that simple?" After listening to this, the monk was stunned for a while. He may not have thought that I had such an understanding of time and space.
"If there is abnormal aging in living things, especially the kind of aging that leads directly to death and no other reason can be seen, it may only be related to time."
"I want to ask you." The monk suddenly grabbed my shoulder and asked eagerly: "If a person is transported to another time and space by a strange force, can he come back? Can he return to the original time?
And location?”
"Be gentle!" I quickly went to squeeze the monk's hand. I didn't know why he became so excited all of a sudden. It hurt my shoulder when he squeezed it. But the question he asked happened to be what Li Fusheng had just said, so I said to him.
: "If there is a huge space-time grid, that possibility does not exist."
"Yes! Is there such a grid?" The monk became even more anxious: "In other words, can I use this grid to find that person?"
"I guess not." I shook my head: "That kind of huge space-time grid may not exist. At least, people on earth cannot create it."
The anxiety and expectation on the monk's face suddenly disappeared, and his expression suddenly became dull. He slowly loosened his grip on my hand and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
The lifespan of the Insect King may be far longer than that of humans. The blood I threw away was enough to allow the "jade" to continue to work for a long time, but more than half of it disappeared, the faint light still existed, and the sound of the Insect King's struggle was still heard.
.I was a little nervous at first, but as I waited, my mood gradually calmed down. I firmly believe that victory belongs to us.
After waiting like this for more than an hour, the sound at the bottom of the pit slowly began to subside, and the faint halo disappeared from outside the cave entrance. It was not until the insect king's struggle could no longer be heard that Kuang Haige climbed to the entrance of the cave and faced down.
I looked at it. Darkness returned below. Under the light of the flashlight, the huge insect king had been coiled into a ball and could not move. Around the insect king, layers of small insects appeared.
The dark brown color of death.
"Maybe he's dead." Kuang Haige threw a piece of burning fuel. Countless insects not far away were still swarming, but the insect king was silent and slowly burned by the fuel. It was still the same as before, indeed.
died.
Judging from the previous situation, there can only be one insect king in the insect nest. With the death of the insect king, most of our crisis has been relieved. We were just thinking about how to contact Li Fusheng and the little ruffian when we saw that there were suddenly more cave entrances.
A pair of legs swayed back and forth, and then, the little ruffian appeared outside the cave entrance. He was only wearing a close-fitting autumn clothes, grabbed a rope tied with a strip of cloth, and jumped into the cave with a slight swing.
"Didn't the three of you take this opportunity to fight the landlords?" The little gangster immediately felt relieved when he saw that we were all fine, grinning and joking with us. He and Li Fusheng packed up all the usable clothes and even backpacks.
After it came together, I tried going back and forth several times before I finally managed to get it together.
The situation finally calmed down. We distributed some clothes to the little gangster, communicated loudly with Li Fusheng, and then used fuel to boil water and eat some food. Only then did we have more relaxed conditions to complete the entire Yukeng.
I looked down and saw that the pit, which was almost thirty meters deep, was very large.
"Are you sure it's a mine?" the little ruffian asked me while chewing biscuits.
"I guess so." I didn't want him to know too much, so I agreed vaguely.
"That's a bit strange." The little ruffian stuffed the last biscuit into his mouth, then turned on his flashlight to the highest setting, leaned out and took pictures of the front, back, left, and right, and said, "I'm doing it bit by bit from above.
For the first ten meters or so, I believe it was a pit formed by people mining bit by bit, but after more than ten meters, the situation is different."
"What?" I was stunned. Ever since I lost my footing and fell, I had been on tenterhooks, but I really didn't pay attention to this problem.
"More than ten meters above this mine, there are gouge marks on the stone wall, and there are many gouge marks. This shows that the ore was mined with tools. But ten or twenty meters behind, the stone wall is very smooth, like a piece of tofu.
It was cut open by someone." The little ruffian looked at other places and said: "It's hard to get through the other side for the time being, but I always feel that the stone wall over there is quite smooth."
"What do you want to say?"
"What I want to say is that even in modern society, there is no equipment or tools that can cut such a large mine so smoothly and completely." The little gangster laughed and said, "Of course, this has nothing to do with our escape.
I just discovered the relationship and just said it casually."
"Wait a minute." I looked at the monk, then turned to the little ruffian: "You mean, such a large piece more than ten meters below the mine was completely cut off and then taken away?"
"Reality and reasoning are very contradictory." The little ruffian smiled.
I can't believe that in such a large mine, all the ores can be completely cut and transported away at once? That is absolutely impossible. I couldn't help but argue with the little gangster, but the little gangster quickly did it
He made a surrender gesture and said: "I'm not good at debating. Just let it be whatever you say. You can think it was done by aliens."
We rested for a while, and then helped get Li Fusheng down. Once the insect king is dead, we can probably go down to the bottom of the pit and hike to the other side. The danger is definitely still there. The guy who fell before has died, but be careful with it.
, it should be okay, since I was forced to have no way out anyway. I wasn’t particularly scared, but when I thought about the sea-like swarms of insects, I could feel how disgusting it would be to step on them.
Kuang Haige first went down to explore the path. There was a layer of bugs at the bottom of the pit, and they burrowed into any cracks. While sucking blood, these bugs may also release a little bit of anesthetic body fluid like mosquitoes, one or two.
The anesthetic body fluid of the bugs probably has no effect on the human body, but it will be different if there are too many bites. The few of us tied up our trousers and cuffs tightly and got ready.
The diameter of this mine pit is sixty or seventy meters from north to south. If nothing unexpected happens, if you run with all your strength, you will be able to run to the opposite side in no time. Then you will clear a place and find a way to climb up from there. The five people arranged the order, and then followed
When I got to the bottom of the pit, I stepped on it and immediately came to a soft place. I couldn't bear to look at it, but the little gangster pushed me from behind and motioned for me to leave quickly.
Walking at the bottom of the pit is like walking on a huge sponge bed, which is disgusting to death. But as I thought before, as long as you speed up when you are prepared, it will not be a big problem. Not long after, Kuang Hai Pavilion at the front has already
When we ran to the opposite side, the little gangster's guess was correct. The pit wall on the opposite side was as smooth as a mirror. We took a parachute flare ejection tube and fixed an iron claw in front of the rope. The ejection tube was super powerful.
, the rope was bounced upward, and the iron claw was a fulcrum. Kuang Haige pulled the rope hard and felt it was still firm, then he grabbed the rope and started to climb up.
