Evil Luohai City is also known as the Ten Thousand Cities of Fear and Strength. It and the Gate of Disaster are both place names that only exist in ancient legends of Kunlun Mountain. They have never been recorded in the annals of history. It is only said that they are hidden in the deepest part of Kunlun Mountain. They really once existed.
Have you ever thought about the ancient city in the mural of King Xian’s tomb? Maybe it depicts the Evil Luohai City, but what is the connection between this northern demon’s nest and the bottomless ghost cave deep in the sand sea of Xinjiang? Can you find a giant there?
We don’t have much confidence yet about the Eyeball Altar.
We even have to prepare for the worst. According to legend, the ancient and evil Evil Luohai City, like the ancient city of Jingjue, mysteriously and suddenly disappeared one night, so the powerful Demonic Kingdom collapsed. What kind of disaster happened there?
Or accidents, are still unknown.
I suddenly remembered what Zhang Yingchuan said: The end has a beginning, and when you encounter water, you will find the middle way. The middle way refers to the golden mean, the right path, which can also be understood as the road of safety and self-protection.
Then, a more mysterious passage appeared. This long and narrow slope leads to the deepest part of Longding Glacier. There should be lakes or underground rivers there. If there is water, there must be a road. Thinking of this, I immediately added some thoughts.
confidence.
Everyone rested on this gentle slope for about half an hour. Worried about the danger near the demon tower, they started to continue downward. This frozen soil tunnel with earth steps extended in all directions underground and was as dense as a spider web. We did not dare to walk in poverty.
Just go down the main road in the middle, and you can see spell marks from time to time, including some eyeball patterns.
He told me: If the Samsara Sect only wants to dig through the door to disaster, then there is no need to dig the tunnel all the way into the nine-story demon tower. And looking at the conditions in the underground tunnels, they were not built at the same time. It may have been built for hundreds of years.
, even for thousands of years, this may be related to their belief that the abyss is the source of power. But have you ever thought about why the people of the Samsara Sect dug up the demon tower?
I thought about it and said: This matter is indeed strange. The demon tower dedicated to the evil god is inviolable. Could it be that the Samsara Sect wants to take out something important from it? In addition to the glacier crystal corpse, what else could be in the tower?
We discussed as we walked. But we never figured out the reason, so we had to give up. After extending diagonally downward for a while, we connected with the vertical ice abyss. Although the ice wall was slightly tilted, in our eyes, this
There is no difference between this angle and straight up and down. There is no way to go down.
The bottom of the ice abyss can already be seen here. Countless dots of light blue fluorescence in the deepest part converge into a shimmering river, meandering under the glacier. Since the ice wall is slightly sloped, we were the first to
While tracking Xue Maitreya, everyone took a look at the entrance of the permafrost tunnel. It was like looking at the Milky Way backwards, and they couldn't help but admire: It's so beautiful, just like the Milky Way. There may be crystals below, or there may be jellyfish in the river.
Phosphors, that’s why such a dreamlike scene appears
There are remnants of broken timber at the entrance of the tunnel. Hundreds of years ago, there was probably a wooden bridge leading down, but over time, it collapsed and collapsed. The timber probably fell into the river below. I visually measured the height.
, this is already the lowest part of the glacier, about thirty meters away from the fluorescent river. From this height, you can fall directly with a long rope.
I told everyone that since there is running water, there must be a way out. We can climb down
Uncle Ming objected. The ice wall was smoother than a mirror. Although it was not high at more than 30 meters, a person could be broken if he fell. He should look for another way and use a rope to get there.
It is too dangerous to slide down the ice wall.
The fat man looked down and felt dizzy. He quickly agreed with Uncle Ming to drive the Wannian Ship carefully. There are so many branch routes in the tunnel behind, there must be other exits. Of course, Fat Man, I don't care, even if it falls flat.
, at most he will be a good man again in twenty years, but we who are supporting the old and the young now have to think more about the safety of Uncle Ming and the others.
I reminded the fat man, Commander Wang, don’t stand in the wrong team and insist on going through those tunnels instead of taking shortcuts. What should you do if you get lost in there and can’t get out? We don’t have to worry about Uncle Ming and the others.
, so according to the previous agreement, the nine-story demon tower has been excavated and the glacier crystal corpse has been found. From now on, we will go our separate ways. If we can survive, we will settle the accounting issue after returning to Beijing.
Okay, Uncle Ming, prepare all your antique toys when you get home. We won't be polite then.
I just said this to scare Uncle Ming. Uncle Ming was really worried that we would leave him and Axiang here. After thinking about it, we had to follow the three Mojin captains to get out of the glacier. Moreover, we lost troops and generals in this operation.
I have lost all my capital. Maybe I can find something more valuable in this disaster door. Of course, these things must be survived, so I said that they must not be separated. This will increase the chance of surviving the disaster.
will become bigger.
Seeing that Uncle Ming was done, I started to prepare the rope. I used a long rope with a mountaineering pickaxe and descended first. On both sides of the river valley under the ice abyss, there were many black rotten trees scattered around. There were a large number of iceberg crystal stone veins on the river bank.
, shining with the light blue fluorescence in the river, without using any light source, and will have a certain range of visibility.
I looked around and saw that there was no danger, so I signaled the people above to follow me down. By the time the fat man finally slid down screaming, a lot of time had already been spent, from digging the wooden tower to fighting fiercely with the wolves, until he arrived.
Deep in the ice abyss, everyone rested for less than half an hour, and it was inevitable that they were all hungry at this time.
He told me: I must find a safe place to rest for a night to allow Uncle Ming and Axiang to regain their strength. Otherwise, if they continue walking, they will really die from exhaustion.
I nodded in agreement, so everyone looked for a place to camp nearby. First they went to the edge of the underground river and looked down. The water here is very gentle and the water quality is extremely clear. There are many freshwater jellyfish in the water, and the light blue fluorescence is all bright.
They came out. However, although this kind of creature looks beautiful, it is actually very dangerous. If gathered in large numbers, the bioelectricity it produces can instantly paralyze large animals. Everyone is warned to stay away from the river as much as possible. Be careful not to touch the river water.
This river valley seemed to have no end. I walked along the direction of the water flow, and soon a hole was found under the cliff covered with crystal stones. Since it was deep underground, if something fell from above, no one would be able to bear it.
The hole at the bottom of the cliff naturally became the most ideal camping spot.
The Cave View Fire Mouth is relatively spacious and seems to have traces of artificial chiseling. However, it is so old that it is difficult to confirm. I turned on a flashlight and looked in from the outside of the cave. Pieces of crystal light flashed. Like the outside, there were a large number of
It's a transparent crystal, but it seems to be extremely winding and deep. Standing outside, you can't see clearly the depth inside.
This cave didn't seem to be a haunt of wild beasts. But for the sake of safety, I took Fatty in first to conduct a reconnaissance. After walking less than five or six steps into the cave, there was a turn, and there was about a space behind it.
The room is about 20 square meters in size. If there is no danger, it is indeed suitable for camping here.
The fat man and I held up our wolf eyes and took pictures everywhere in the cave. There were some old stone platforms on the ground, and there were some white bull heads piled in the corners. There was a black humanoid wooden statue more than a foot high on the stone platform. My heart moved.
, this place is probably the place where the Reincarnation Sect offers sacrifices. The form of this little black wooden figure seems to be the same as the Black Tiger Mysterious Altar of the cult mentioned by Tiebang Lama. Website
I asked the fat man to call Axiang and others in, and asked Axiang to take a look at the hole to see if there was anything unclean. Axiang went into the hole and took a look, and found that there was nothing, not even a dead spot, nor a dead spot, but the little black wooden man.
Nothing.
Now that everything is safe and everyone is very tired, there may not be a suitable place than here if they look further, so they rest in the cave and light a fire to heat their food.
There are some natural small holes on the innermost stone wall of the crystal cave, the size of a fist. However, even children cannot get in. It should be safer if these holes are blocked with stones to prevent snakes from getting in.
Everyone gathered around the fire to eat, but Uncle Ming sighed and couldn't eat. He asked Axiang to take out his ancestral porcelain cat with thirteen whiskers, shook his head, picked up a stone, and smashed the porcelain cat to pieces.
The fat man looked on with pity and said to Uncle Ming: If you don't want it anymore, just give it to me. This tabby cat has a history of hundreds of years. Fortunately, it is also a toy. It's a pity to smash it. If you want to smash it, it's a pity.
When I broke the four old things, I smashed more than you, but now, don’t I regret it a little bit?
I said to Uncle Ming: I remember that you worshiped this flowered porcelain cat not long ago. It is said that this thing is very effective and its whiskers are not broken. But why did we break so many hands in the demon tower? Could it be that we didn’t read the almanac?
, made a mistake
Uncle Ming sighed and told the truth: For people like me who have been sailing for so many years, these are the things that I believe in most and are most afraid of those unlucky omens. The older I get, the less courage I have.
A lucky draw, this porcelain cat passed down from our ancestors, I glued the whiskers to death and kept breaking them off. I became more and more angry, as if I couldn't stand it, so I waved the broken porcelain cat to the wall.
It was a coincidence that the body of the porcelain cat was broken, but its head was still intact. It rolled to the wall, and it happened to face Uncle Ming. Under the firelight, the pair of cats shone brightly, as if they had
Shencai seemed to have come alive, which made Uncle Ming even more uncomfortable. He murmured a curse: The old porcelain cat is almost going to become a spirit. I want you to stare at me. As he spoke, he picked up the stone again.
I want to go over and smash the head of the flower porcelain cat.
I wanted to stop Uncle Ming, why bother? Is it worth getting angry with something? But before I could say anything, Uncle Ming's body suddenly froze and he stood there motionless.
His back was turned to us, and I didn’t know what he saw. I waved my hand, and the fat man had loaded the gun and pulled Axiang to a far corner.
I stood up and saw Uncle Ming staring straight at the cat's head, so I asked Uncle Ming what was going on. Uncle Ming said tremblingly: Brother Hu, there are snakes there. Look over there. Uncle Ming is in Nanyang.
When he was young, he was bitten by a poisonous snake, so he was very afraid of poisonous snakes.
I thought to myself that I had just checked to see if there would be any snakes, and what was there to be afraid of? Then I looked in the direction that Uncle Ming pointed at, and it turned out that there was a porcelain cat next to its head that I had blocked with stones.
The stone swayed slightly through the hole, as if something was about to push out.
I protected Uncle Ming behind me and pulled out the engineering shovel. Whether it was a snake or a mouse that came out of it, I flattened it with the shovel. The others also raised their flashlights and shined here from behind.
The stone moved a few more times and finally fell to the ground. I picked up the engineering shovel and started to hit it, but halfway down, it stopped abruptly. It was not a snake, but a green plant branch that opened in an instant.
A red flower the size of a sea bowl appeared.
Why did flowers grow here? I still didn't understand what was going on. I heard Axiang suddenly scream from behind. I was concentrating on trying to see what was going on. Her scream almost frightened the engineer.
The shovel was thrown on the ground. I never thought that if a woman was extremely frightened, she would make such a move.
I quickly asked Ah Xiang what was going on and if he saw something.
