"Young Master, let me take people down!" Boss Meng came over and said that he had always kept in mind the seventh master's instructions, and he followed my words and took good care of me along the way. The future of the people who are going down this time is uncertain, and they are not sure.
He knew whether there would be danger or what kind of danger I would encounter, but he also wanted to help me prevent this.
I shook my head and refused, and said directly: "Boss, although Master Qi asked you to come with me this time, I can see that you are all good people along the way. You have suffered a lot along the way, but there has never been anyone
I have made a complaint, and I, Wang Fo, have kept these in mind! But I will definitely go down this time, and I have to take care of my own affairs. Besides, we are just going down to see the situation. If necessary, we will come up and notify you.
Yours. Someone needs to be stationed here. If we encounter an accident and have to come out, we need someone to take care of it. I don't trust this matter to be left in the hands of others. Besides, no one is qualified. Only you, boss, will be here to guard you.
We won’t have anything to worry about anymore.”
Boss Meng didn't speak much. He didn't say anything else after hearing this. He just nodded and asked his men to pack up the best things in the team. Food, weapons, tools and lighting equipment were all needed.
We got all the things that we needed as well as those that might be needed. It was not easy to bring these things over. The things he prepared for us accounted for a full third of everything, which was enough to show Boss Meng’s intentions.
Originally, I wanted to go down with Fatty, Monkey and Axue, but Yang Chuanwu insisted on going down with us. Although he has often gone to the mountains in the past fifty years, he has never been here, so naturally he doesn’t know what’s going on here.
situation, so I couldn't figure out his behavior, and I couldn't help but secretly wonder if he had touched some kind of information?
We dug a few iron nails into the solid ice around the entrance of the cave, then tied a rope and slid down all the way with the fat man taking the lead. Considering that it must be very wet and ice-cold inside the frozen round shape, we all put on gloves and hats, and then we
Wrap coarse cloth on the soles of the feet to prevent slipping. The rope is double-layered and not tied on top, so that after people get down, they can take the rope back, add iron nails and continue climbing down. This recycling allows us to
Don't worry that we will have nothing to rely on when the rope ends.
But the actual situation did not develop in the direction we expected. Our rope was nearly 50 meters long, and the double layer was only about 20 meters long. As soon as we climbed to the end, the circular ice cave also ended. Here is
It was a sight that made one's scalp go numb.
The restricted ice cave has passed, and the situation below is wide open.
But it is infinitely more dangerous than being in an ice cave. Just as I thought, the ice under the crescent moon is so deep that it is unimaginable, but it is not solid inside, but semi-hollow. Countless icicles are intertwined with each other.
They were entangled together. When we looked down from above, we saw that there were many ice picks standing sharply upward. The tip part looked sharp like a weapon. The terrain was so unusual that I thought if a person fell suddenly, he would not be able to survive.
It is said that it will become like a hornet's nest riddled with holes, but at least it will end up with three cuts and six holes.
But these icicles are not separate, they are all connected together. Some huge icicles extend directly to the solid ice we are on, supporting the weight above like pillars, while the ice below is like
Put a piece of hemp in the palm of your hand and rub it vigorously. In the end, they will be completely tangled together. There is no fixed direction or pattern. There are only many icicles standing upright at the top, guarding this place like guards. But inside
There are a lot of spaces, and the direction is of course not fixed. Some gaps can be completely let people pass through, while others cannot even fit a finger in. Some gaps are like caves, and some are like gaps torn open at random.
, when you walk inside the gap, it looks flat and smooth, while some are bumpy and difficult to walk through.
The formation of glaciers like this must be caused by differences in temperature. It must have been solid in the beginning. Maybe in a certain year, maybe in certain years, the problem here suddenly increases, and the melting of ice and snow will naturally complete.
, and then formed ravine-like gaps and icicles. But then the temperature began to drop again, and the upper part was filled with snow again, while the lower part naturally maintained its original appearance, so this kind of desperate place was created.
In short, this place is more complex and dangerous than we imagined. Especially these are ice. As soon as it comes into contact with the temperature of our bodies, it will melt, and the surface of the ice will become very slippery, which may make people stand on it.
We can't stand firmly. Moreover, some of the icicles below are very small in diameter, and ice is inherently brittle. Whether they can withstand our weight is worrying. Because this is a matter of life and death. If
If you fall from here, you will definitely die without any accident.
Although the terrain is frightening, we still have to go down the road. It contains our hope, no matter how dangerous it is, we must try it. Yang Chuanwu has the most experience, although he also has no
Climbing through such an underground glacier is still such a complex and dangerous structure, but his experience can still help us a lot.
For example, he asked us to cut the ropes, tie a piece of each rope to ourselves, and then use two iron nails to make a lock. This is a simple safety belt. We only need to buckle the rope to the side first.
When people get down from the icicle, they won't be afraid of falling due to a mistake.
This kind of safety belt is very simple. It took us a very short time to solve this problem. Then we evenly distributed the equipment and materials and began to prepare to climb these seemingly untenable places.
At this moment, Axue behind me suddenly pulled me gently, and then pointed to a place around us. Axue has always been observant of the things around him, and since she reminded me, there must be something
What a special discovery. Sure enough, when I turned around and looked over, I immediately found a few white hairs stuck to the solid ice next to us. Needless to say, they must have been left by the white ape.
I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Seeing these white hairs at least proves that we are chasing down in the right direction. The white ape has indeed used the ice cave above as an entrance and exit. Now we only need to follow down to find it. Finally
