Upon hearing my question, Shui Yue immediately smiled, patted my backpack and said: "I have told you this is a game, from the beginning. Do you still remember what happened in Yutang Village? As long as you
With He Tao carrying these things, they can find them wherever you go."
I have the urge to curse. These people are so powerful. Not only do they know the situation here well, they didn't even lay a big bag to trap me in beforehand. Unfortunately, I thought I had always been in control of this matter.
As for the active position, I didn't expect that I would always be played with by others, which is really depressing.
I asked Shuiyue, since she knew so clearly about this matter, she must have known the inside story for a long time, why didn't she tell me earlier?
But her answer was very realistic. Since there are so many people willing to be free bodyguards, why expose them? Wouldn't it be better now? When they get here, they no longer need someone to guide them, and we don't need anyone to protect us.
, everyone goes his own way, and the rest of the way depends on his own ability, to see who can have the last laugh.
Since everything has already happened, it is useless to talk about it, so just keep it in your heart. This kind of thing will make you wiser every time, so consider it as a good lesson!
At this time, I thought of A Xue, and asked them if they had seen her under the cabin. The fat man said that he had already looked for her at that time, but A Xue said that she still had some things to do, so she did not come out with us.
, but with her skills, nothing will happen. After all, this is in the river, and as a river dragon, she definitely has the overwhelming advantage, so there is no need to worry too much about her.
This section of the underground river is not too long. We swam for about ten minutes and then we reached the end. No, it was the end of the river. There was a very gentle slope in front of us. There was an undercurrent below, but we couldn't see it.
That's all.
We climbed up the slope to the shore. It was a man-made stone path, about five meters wide. The stone walls on both sides went straight up. Even the light could not find the end. I think our current location should be at the bottom of the mountain.
, I just don’t know whether this stone path was dug artificially or formed naturally. It is estimated that the latter has a larger component.
This stone path has obviously been carefully constructed. There are stone sculptures and lamp holders every five meters on both sides of the mountain wall. However, many of them have been damaged due to the time. There are many paintings on the mountain wall. Due to the colors,
It's not very bright, and many places have fallen off, so it's not very clear. Those that can be distinguished are mostly related to sacrifices.
One of them caught our attention. Most of the area of the picture was occupied by a lake, with something vaguely floating on it. A huge stone platform was built on the shore, and some people were kneeling under the stone platform. On the side of the stone platform
There is a square object in the center, which looks like a big cauldron or a huge box. The strange thing is that in the center of this thing stands a weird-looking man with three heads and six arms, two hands on his hips, two
He held a huge scepter in one hand and pointed to the sky with two fingers, looking very magical.
"Damn it, what is this? It looks so ugly. Are there really people with three heads and six arms at that time?" The fat man yelled with a big mouth, imitating the people on the mural, who looked very unbeatable.
"Well, I'm not talking about you, can we stop being so weird? Three heads and six arms are nothing. We have seen people of both genders now, what's so weird about it?"
"Mud monkey, please stop bragging. Can someone take off their pants and show you? Even if they are really neither men nor women, it is still a shameful thing. It is better for our three-headed gentleman to be more open-minded. Why don't you look like this secretly?"
Pull the wind, go to that station, and the gods and ghosts will retreat!"
I quickly interrupted their conversation. If they were allowed to arrange this, it would be okay. I said that this was probably just a fictitious person, no, it was a god. What cavemen like this kind of worship most are mountains, maybe
This man with three heads and six arms is the mountain god they imagined out of thin air.
The stone path inside became wider and wider as we walked, and eventually reached tens of meters. When a huge stone platform appeared in front of us, several of us were excited because we knew that we had finally arrived at the place we had been looking for.
Climbing the stone platform. When I saw the huge lake, even though I had been mentally prepared beforehand, I was still shocked at this moment.
This lake is round in shape and is completely inside the closed mountain. Apart from the stone path we walked, there is no other entrance. The diameter of the lake is a thousand meters, and the surface of the lake is very quiet and not a trace can be seen.
The waves are as clear as a mirror, and the lake looks both beautiful and mysterious in the dark environment.
What's amazing is that the embankment by the lake is much higher than the surrounding ground, and the lake water and the embankment are almost at the same level. If there is even a slight wave in the lake water, it will definitely overflow. There is also the round dome,
From the inside, it looks like a huge yurt. The entire dome and the surrounding stone walls are extremely smooth. In short, this place feels very round and quiet.
"This is the Divine Lake? It's indeed very magical, but how was it formed? It doesn't look like it was dug artificially. It's really hard to figure out." The fat man who was as curious as a baby started to ask questions that he didn't understand.
The spirit started to make a lot of noise.
How could this kind of problem be solved without a monkey? He immediately responded: "Well, can you have some common sense? This is of course not artificial. Anyone with a bit of brains will know at a glance that it was caused by that old man.
from."
"What is the local master's disappearance?"
"Hey! It's terrible to be uneducated! Do you understand volcanoes?" Monkey said, shaking his head like an old scholar.
I was afraid that they would start arguing again, so I quickly explained to them. I said that on the surface it seemed that it was caused by a volcano, but the mountains and soil above were too thick, and the volcano did not erupt, so it formed
Such a place.
Now even the monkeys looked puzzled, saying that since the volcano had not erupted, how could such a crater be formed? This is unreasonable!
I looked around and realized that this was not a commonly seen crater at all, but a hidden crater. This kind of crater is called "Pingzui'er". I asked them if people opened it.
What will happen if the muzzle of the gun is blocked when shooting a gun?
"Of course it exploded!" said the fat man.
I said that's right. The situation here is like that. If the volcano cannot erupt, an internal explosion will naturally occur. The stone path we just walked through and the many underground rivers here should be in that kind of situation.
Formed under certain circumstances, this kind of terrain also has a saying in our industry. To put it nicely, it is called "Wolongtan", and to put it more unkindly, it is "Multiple Gourd". Although this kind of terrain is strange, it is not unique.
Yes, there are many places, but it looks more imposing here.
"Wait, wait, little prince, why do these two names seem to mean something else to me?" said the fat man.
I smiled and glanced at Shuiyue next to me. She was looking at the lake in a trance, with a trace of piety in her eyes. She seemed not to have listened to our conversation at all.
I said, Fatty, you are right, these two names do have some other meanings. The reason why it is called Wolongtan is based on the legend. In the legend, there is a real dragon lying in places like this, and this is the real dragon.
The dragon made it when he sneezed. Of course, this is definitely unrealistic. As for the stuffy gourd, what I mentioned earlier is one reason, and the place we see now is only a small part of it. Usually,
There should be a larger space under this lake. The two spaces are connected like a huge gourd, so it got its name. Of course, what I know is all from books.
Yes, I don’t know whether this is the case or not.
The fat man opened his mouth and wanted to ask something more, but I quickly interrupted him. Needless to say, I knew what he was going to ask. It must be where the water in the lake comes from.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Water is the most compatible thing in the world, and it is also the easiest chemical component to form. In a humid environment, these stones are very capable of gathering water. This lake is in the center.
This place naturally becomes a gathering point of water. After thousands of years or even longer of brewing and accumulation, it is not surprising that such a lake is formed. Moreover, it is very close to those underground rivers. If the ancients introduced
It's perfectly normal to have some water.
Walking to the edge of the sacred lake, I had some thoughts in my mind. A majestic and mysterious lake like this must be a miraculous existence in the eyes of the ancients. If sacrifices are to be held, this must be the most important place.
This may even have been a holy place at that time. What exactly did the first generation of dragon chasers do here?
"Huh? There seems to be something in the lake!" The monkey suddenly exclaimed.
We all shined our flashlights over it. The shore was hundreds of meters away from the center of the lake. No matter how powerful the flashlights were, they couldn't reach that far, so we could only vaguely see a huge black shadow floating in the lake.
On the water, it was quiet and motionless.
"Isn't there some kind of castle on the water?" the fat man said wildly.
"Nagua, you are talking nonsense. If you say this, it will make people all over the world laugh. Why would people build castles thousands of years ago? If they could build castles, why would they still live there?
In this cave?”
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe there is a genius who can build this thing."
"Well, common sense, common sense, you know, this is a lake that is not flat ground. If they had had this kind of technology at that time, it is estimated that humans would be able to fly all over the sky by now."
