Sure enough, not long ago we heard the sound of water flowing from the front. Judging from the intensity of the sound, it was definitely not a gentle flow of water, but a sound like a collision from top to bottom.
When we walked closer and saw it with our own eyes, we still had a shocking feeling. This was indeed a waterfall that went straight up and down, but it was not the kind we usually see, but a round waterfall.
The waterfall covers an area of more than five meters, like a huge ring, that is to say, it is empty in the middle, and water pours down from all sides, just like a huge plastic pipe standing up.
What is in front of us is a huge cave entrance. The water falls directly from the top to an unknown depth below, and the stone path we are now on is just where it passes.
"What should we do? It's already over. How about we go back and take another road now?" I said to Shuiyue.
"I guess the situation over there should be similar to here. It seems to me that we only have two ways now, either up or down."
"You mean you want to pass through here?" I looked at her in surprise. The water flow of this circular waterfall is very large. Not only can I climb up or down, but I don't know whether I can go in the middle of the water column.
It can be imagined that the echo coming from below must be very high. If it was washed away by the water, it would be difficult to save one's life.
"There is no way, this is the only way out, unless you want to go back, but I can't guarantee that I can still save you." Shuiyue said calmly.
When I thought of the mountain wall full of corpses, my scalp went numb for a while, and finally I could only sigh helplessly: "Okay, just climb! But should we go up or down?"
"What do you think?"
I thought about it and said that although it would be easier to climb down, I always felt that it was not a good place to go. We have now reached a very deep place. If we go down further, I don’t know where we will go, but it will definitely not be a path.
It's a broad road, so I think we should go up.
"Okay, then let's go up."
"Really?" I looked at Shuiyue blankly. She agreed a little too readily. "You don't have any ideas?"
"Didn't you already say it? I will believe you just once." Shuiyue said with a smile.
"No, what if I'm wrong?" I was a little anxious. What I just said was nonsense, and even I felt it was a bit far-fetched.
Shuiyue turned to look at me with a very serious expression: "Wang Fo, men must dare to make decisions and take responsibility. It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong. It's just a choice. In fact, facing this situation now
In any situation, whichever path you choose is right. The key lies in whether you dare to make the choice."
"Okay, how should we get up now?"
"If you want to go up, you must first enter the water column. Only by seeing the situation above clearly can you know how to go up. But how to get into the middle of the water column is a big problem. Do you have any opinions?
My mind kept spinning. If we want to enter the waterfall, with the impact of this water flow, it is almost impossible, unless the water flow can be stopped or a gap can be opened for us to pass through.
Just fine.
Moreover, even if we enter, we cannot stop in the air. We must find a support point to prevent us from falling.
No matter which one of these two problems it is, it is very difficult. Now it is really a headache to solve both of them together.
I observed the waterfall carefully. I don’t know how it was built or formed back then. It is not easy to turn this waterfall into a hollow circle. Moreover, there is not even a splash of water when we are standing here.
Splashing on the body, the control of the water flow is really clever.
Vertical circle? Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind. Since the water flow falls vertically, we only need to use stone slabs to block the top, and a gap will appear below, and the water column will protrude towards the stone path on our side.
, we only need to tie one or more ropes on both sides of the stone path, and let the ropes pass directly through the water column, then we will have a support point.
I told this idea, and Shuiyue also agreed. However, moving the stone slabs is very labor-intensive and hard work. One or two stone slabs cannot withstand the impact of the water flow. We need more stones.
The stone path here cannot meet our requirements. Fortunately, the stairs we passed before were paved with nearly two meters of stone slabs. We only need to remove them.
It took us several hours to move more than a dozen bluestone slabs from the steps in front, and build them into a stone wall as high as one person, and let the middle pieces protrude several feet in length, so that
We can drill through the gap below.
There are two huge bronze lamp holders at the end of the stone path, which should be able to withstand the weight of the two of us. We tied them several times with ropes. Although it took some effort, we finally got it done.
The water column hit the stone slabs and splashed in all directions. As soon as we got closer, we were covered in water. Fortunately, the temperature here was different from normal, and the water temperature was not very low. Otherwise, we would not have been able to get in even if we did all this.
We tied the waterproof packages behind our backs and carefully crawled in through the gap under the stone slab. Shuiyue was so agile that he grabbed the rope in the middle of the water column in a flash, turned over and sat on it.
I also imitated her actions, stood on the edge of the hole, jumped suddenly, and grabbed one of the ropes. However, because I used too much strength, the rope suddenly broke, and as soon as my body was free, I moved towards
Falling below.
My mind suddenly went blank, and I thought it was over. If I fell like this, I would be crushed to death by the huge amount of water even if I didn't fall to death.
At this critical moment, a figure flashed in front of me, and one hand was tightly grasped. When I looked up, Shuiyue's feet were hooked on two ropes, holding me at the head and feet. Although it seemed a little reluctant,
But in the end it didn't fall.
The flexibility of her body was really good. She grabbed my body and swung it in the middle of the water column. It wasn't until my hands could hook the rope that I suddenly let go, and we both sat up together.
I wiped the water off my face and took a deep breath. The scene just now was too thrilling. If Shuiyue had reacted slower, my life would have been sacrificed. But what puzzled me was that the rope
How could it suddenly break? These are specially made ropes!
At this time, Shuiyue had already taken out the flashlight and looked up. Only then did he see that there was a circular hole about ten meters above. The water was flowing down from the cracks on the side, but the hole was straight upward.
, I don’t know where it leads.
At this moment, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly noticed a figure flashing beside the bluestone outside. Because the other person was moving very fast, I didn't see his appearance clearly.
I quickly told Shuiyue about this situation. After hearing this, her face became cautious. Thinking of the sudden break of the rope just now, we were all shocked. Could it be that the person was hostile to us?
We don't know which side he is from, but the most urgent thing now is to find a way to get there quickly, otherwise the consequences may be serious.
Shuiyue asked me to pay attention to the movement next to me, and he quickly opened his backpack and took out an eagle talon, and suddenly threw it towards the entrance of the hole.
We don't know if there is a way out of the cave, but under the current circumstances, this is the only chance of survival. If there is a dead end, then we are probably doomed.
But what surprised us was that after the eagle's claw flew up from the hole, it didn't come down again. We tried to pull it, and the hook was very tight, which should be able to withstand the weight of the two of us.
At this moment, a rope under us loosened again. I quickly hugged Shuiyue. She had already tied her belt and buckled the wire rope on the eagle's claws around her waist to stabilize her body again.
.
This time we were finally sure that the sudden disconnection of the rope must have been caused by the man outside. We couldn't help but feel itching with hatred, this damn guy wanted to kill us.
"Wang Fo, do you want to give them a good fix?" Shuiyue suddenly leaned into my ear and said.
I had already been holding back the words in my heart, so I nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, let's go up first. We must make them look good later." Shuiyue took me to climb up. It doesn't take much effort to climb this kind of rope. This rope was specially made by Shuiyue.
Yes, the claws on it are made of stainless steel, the rope is also made of alloy, and the belt on the body is the matching equipment. Even if you are carrying one person, you can easily climb up.
Seen from below, the cave is not very big, but after climbing up, I found that the diameter of the cave entrance is about three meters, surrounded by a gap up to one meter wide, and water falls from that gap. The width of the surrounding area is almost
They are all the same. From this precise point of view, they should be artificially constructed.
The inside of the cave was very smooth, because it was close to the water source, and part of it was covered with moss. As soon as we entered the cave, Shuiyue stopped, and then groped around in his package for a while, and took out a black thing and placed it on the stone.
On the stone wall of the cave.
I looked carefully and was shocked. It turned out to be a special bomb. She probably wanted to blow up the entire cave.
"Shuiyue, we don't have to do this, the people below will die." I said a little worriedly. I just said it, but when I really meant it, I still felt a little uneasy. I was dealing with real people, not real people.
Spooky stuff.
Shuiyue glanced at me coldly and said: "When they broke our rope just now, they wanted to kill us. Since they can do it, don't be afraid of retaliation. We are just treating them in their own way."
It’s just a human body.”
"But, that is a living human life, and besides, we have nothing to do now."
