I held back my breath and went to bed. People outside might have to pack their things and work until very late. I slept like this until dawn, everyone gathered together, had breakfast and were ready to set off. Chen Yu and I took the six
Personally, I always believe that there is strength in numbers, but there is no way. Something happened to Tao Xiaochuan and Liao Dalong, and they sent people to take Tao Xiaochuan out of the mountain. There are only so many people left, but the six of them are people who usually do business. They are better than Qin
The logistics staff like flying are much better.
Since we had already explored the road yesterday, we didn't have to go through any troubles. We walked all the way in. When we passed the underground river that ran through it, Chen Yu was silent for a while. Seeing the underground river, I wasn't very at ease.
After all, such a strange thing happened, I couldn't help but think of Liao Dalong who had already left. In Chen Yu's gang, it was probably not the case that he was blocked at the entrance and couldn't proceed as soon as he started to act. She was silent and a little bit angry at the same time.
, and told the people below to do their best. Fortunately for me, although I came in with the team, as Chen Yu said, I am only responsible for decision-making, and the specific exploration and search work.
I don't care, those six people will handle these matters. What Chen Yu and I have to do is patrol and supervise, and in addition, we are responsible for dispatching and commanding in case of emergencies.
Of course, even these hands-free tasks still have to be done by Chen Yu, and I am just a mess.
The cavity is getting bigger and bigger. I never thought that such an extremely huge cavity could exist deep in the ground. It is much larger than the Xihaihe Underground Project. This is definitely the result of geological movement and is beyond the reach of manpower.
The light in my hand couldn't shine at all. Along the way, I saw a lot of abandoned things, ancient tools, cars with wooden wheels, thick wood, and various lighting tools. These things were all damaged.
, estimated to be left behind by the Qin people who excavated this place at that time.
About a mile after crossing the underground river, the road paved with stones appeared. It was about four meters wide. Although it was not that smooth, it was still very convenient to walk on.
I couldn't believe how smooth the situation was. Maybe it was because we suffered setbacks one after another as soon as we arrived here. Once the situation calmed down, I couldn't accept it. This road paved with stones is about one and a half to two kilometers long.
When we reached the end of the road, I saw the mysterious ancient city recorded by historians.
"We walked here yesterday and surveyed the surrounding area, but we didn't really go in-depth." Chen Yu stood next to me and said, "You take a look first. As for the specific situation inside, you can make up your mind."
I can't describe the scene I saw before me. It seemed like a huge ruin after being destroyed. The scale of this city should be very large. It should have been on the surface of the earth, but for some unknown reason, it suddenly sank underground. The entire city was supposed to be large.
The city is in a state of disrepair, just like a very delicate model that was thrown to the ground and broken into many pieces. This is not the result of the Qin people's destruction. They have no need or ability to do this.
In the ruins of this ancient city, there is no concept of roads at all, and it is difficult to even find a stable place to stay. I saw some climbing tools made of stones and wood, which may have been used by the Qin people at that time to climb
It was built by going to the top of the ruins to find something.
The whole city was broken, as if there were many complex cross-sections in front of me. I saw the remnants of a huge drainage project. This shows that the urban structure is quite mature. In any city, the underground drainage system is very important. If
If even these are incomplete, then the rest of the city's planning will definitely be a mess.
Indeed, this is a very strange ancient city. It does not have any traces of ancient Chinese architecture. This has to make me think deeply again. Who is the owner of the ancient city? The Shiyanchuan area should have belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty for most of its history.
If there is such an ancient city within our territory, there is no reason why future generations should not know about it.
We can't tell the age of the ancient city, but it is at least closer to 2000 years ago. When the Qin people dug it out, the ruins of the ancient city had been sleeping underground for who knows how long.
Fortunately, the signal of the walkie-talkie is pretty good, but I guess we can't visit every corner of the ruins of the ancient city, because when we stand on the edge of the ancient city, we can see several underground rivers running through the ruins. Chen Yu
After informing the few guys below, the six people were divided into three groups and slowly penetrated from three directions. They kept in contact with each other and informed each other of any situation for support. This was the first time they had touched the ancient city, and Chen Yu asked them not to leave.
Too deep.
The guys agreed and quickly dispersed. Chen Yu and I also walked forward slowly. We couldn't see where the other side of the ruins of the ancient city was. It was unusually big for such a city.
It is rare even among the most prosperous dynasties in Chinese history.
"Can you see why this ancient city sank underground?" Chen Yu asked me.
"It's hard to say." No matter how I look at it, I feel that it is absolutely impossible for human power to sink such a huge ancient city into the ground. If you think about it this way, then it will definitely be a natural force. Earthquake? It seems a bit
No, during the surface survey of Shiyan River, no signs of large earthquakes were found.
But if it wasn't an earthquake, what kind of force would it be? I can even imagine the scene when the ancient city fell. The ground must have suddenly cracked, and then the whole city fell in all of a sudden without any buffering time.
"Do you have this feeling?" Chen Yu walked slowly, carefully observing everything along the way, and asked me: "This ancient city actually does not belong to our world?"
"What do you mean?" I was thinking, but when Chen Yu asked me, I suddenly got stuck: "Based on what we see now, we may not be able to tell that it was located in that era, but it does not belong to our world. This is too
It’s hard to understand.”
"I have always believed that everything in the world has an invisible cycle. For example, the Himalayas were once a vast sea a long time ago, but now they have become majestic mountains. Perhaps in a long time, they will become again.
For an ocean.”
"what are you saying?"
"Human beings may not be the only owners of this planet." Chen Yu continued: "The history of the earth is too long. In terms of billions of years, what is the concept? Maybe each of us feels that a few decades in a lifetime is enough.
A long process, all kinds of things will happen in our lives. If we magnify this process ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, what will happen? The occurrence of many miracles requires coincidences, many, many coincidences.
The probability of concentrating together and causing miracles to happen is very slim, but if there is an extremely long time, then these coincidences are not absolutely impossible."
I listened to Chen Yu's words in a daze, almost forgetting to even walk. I thought to myself, "What's wrong with this girl today? She's so nagging."
"What I said is too profound?" Chen Yu looked at my dazed expression, shook his head and smiled: "To put it simply, if you can't understand the ancient city in front of us, you think it is impossible for it to appear in human beings.
At any period in history, you can change your thinking and trace its history back to a long, long time ago. Maybe a long time ago, there was another group of masters living on the earth, and they created this city."
"Can you be more straightforward? I'm a little dizzy."
"Today's human beings have discovered many things that are unbelievable to them. Based on these, some people with active thinking have come to the conclusion that we are not the only masters of the earth. A few years ago, there were other masters of the earth. We put them
These people and everything they created are collectively called prehistoric civilization."
"This is too outrageous." I retorted immediately, but as soon as my mind moved, I immediately remembered the fossils I had seen and some words Xiao Ning said. This made my rebuttal less confident, because I didn't have any confidence at all.
Can't explain that.
"If your thinking is the same as those old-fashioned experts who only believe in dogma, then all your imagination will be restricted, and the truth of the matter may be in your imagination. You have to remember." Chen
Yu slowly said: "People like us may encounter more things that ordinary people can't imagine. Don't believe everything casually, but don't deny everything casually. Only by adhering to this principle can you gain something."
"If you say that, did you fool me again before?" I stared at Chen Yu: "Didn't you say that you came to this ancient city to find something that the Qin people might have missed, something related to the black hole code?
?”
"I'm not deceiving you. I'm just speaking based on the facts. Otherwise, why don't you explain to me the origin of this ancient city?"
While the two of us were talking, Chen Yu kept asking about the conditions of those guys through the intercom. Everything was still normal. We walked slowly between the two groups of people. No matter what happened on the other side, we could rush over immediately.
I'm really a little confused about Chen Yu's purpose of exploring this ancient city. I always thought that the black hole code was what Chen Yu and some other people were pursuing, but she suddenly got involved in prehistoric civilization.
It surprised me.
"We are not experts, nor are we here just for some prehistoric civilization." Chen Yu sat down to tie his shoes and said to me: "But if it is a result that can be easily detected, why not do it? I really
I doubt that the black hole code has anything to do with prehistoric civilization."
Just as I was about to speak, there was a call from a group of guys on the intercom. They were looking for guys on our right.
"What's going on?" Chen Yu asked.
"We're not sure." The man came back over the intercom: "I found a few piles of very strange stones with writing on them."
