Chapter three hundred and ninety fifth tree root maze
"Have the celestial phenomena become so strange?",
Chen Zhi looked at the red moon in the sky, rubbed his eyes and sat up.
When Chen Zhi walked out of the yard, he saw Fat Wei holding a knife in his hand, standing in the yard guarding the door with the Bao family's guys.
When Chen Zhi saw this scene, a feeling of warmth immediately arose in his heart. In fact, although Fat Wei usually looks a bit out of place and not serious, he is actually a very loyal person. I don't know why.
Since then, Fat Wei has become a place where Chen Zhi feels safe, allowing Chen Zhi to feel confident no matter where he goes.
Seeing that Chen Zhi was awake, Fat Wei immediately walked over.
"Chengzi, you finally woke up! You slept for more than three hours this time, and now the celestial phenomena have become too weird. Did you see it? The moon in the sky has changed color, and it is blood red. It is estimated that it will be gone tomorrow morning.
Can be on the news broadcast."
"Saw!",
Chen Zhi looked at the blood-red moon in the sky again and said,
"This abnormal change in the celestial phenomena is caused by the chaos of the Five Elements. It should be temporary. It is expected to be restored during the day. What we need to worry about now is not that. It is important to find the ghost tree immediately. By the way, the situation with Professor Liao
how's it going?".
"The test results from Professor Liao have just come out, let's go and take a look!",
Fat Wei held Chen Zhi with one hand and walked towards the backyard while talking.
"Professor Liao said that the area under the ground is extremely large, and the result is as she predicted in advance. Humans can't go down there at all, and there's not even any oxygen at all."
"Is there really no oxygen?"
Chen Zhi's mind turned quickly, and the strange faces of Mrs. Zheng and Zheng Luzi's wife appeared in front of him again.
"If these human-like creatures do not need oxygen to survive, then they must be non-oxygen creatures, or the gas they need to breathe is different from us, and they can survive in an oxygen-free environment like fungi. Then really
It can only be that kind of thing."
Chen Zhi was thinking in his mind as he and Fat Wei walked to the cellar in the backyard. The place was already crowded with Professor Liao's technicians and various survey equipment. The buzzing sound of machines and the exchanges of technicians were everywhere.
There was a sound, but Guidao still had a poker face, holding the long knife and stepping on it at the entrance of the cellar, and kept guarding there.
Professor Liao next to her was looking at the drawings with her niece. The girl shone a flashlight on the values on the drawings and pointed them out to Professor Liao. When she saw Chen Zhi walking in, Professor Liao's face immediately dropped.
"Are you here? Did you sleep well just now? It seems that you don't forget to rest now! The drawings are out, do you want to see them?"
Professor Liao didn't know the details of Chen Zhi. He didn't know that Chen Zhi fell asleep because he was too tired after casting the spell. She only thought that Chen Zhi and the others were just hired by Mr. Bao with high salary, and they couldn't do anything without talking.
He was just a young man who came to play with tickets. As soon as Mr. Bao left, he immediately went to sleep.
Chen Zhi didn't explain too much to Professor Liao. He walked over calmly, took the drawing from the girl's hand and read it up and down.
In fact, Chen Zhi was very familiar with this kind of geological survey chart and the various element parameters on it, but Professor Liao still explained it next to him.
"We have conducted a precise survey below here. Judging from the survey results, there is indeed a huge blank area below, nearly half the size of the entire Rizhao City. But the soil surface below is full of
The pure carbon material element has now crystallized after hundreds of millions of years, which is what you call diamond.
The hardness of diamond is so great that it covers the space below like an eggshell. It is absolutely impossible to open the surface layer from other locations with our human power, but now there is one that is closest to the underground location and the most
The weakest point can be used as an entrance, and that is this cellar."
After Professor Liao finished speaking, he pointed to the cellar entrance at the back.
"Other than this entrance, there is no other way into the underground."
"I know!",
Chen Zhi looked at the drawing in his hand, frowned and nodded, asking Professor Liao
"If there is an extremely huge space below, it must be very deep. After we enter, do we need to use equipment to support us and keep us suspended in the air?"
"That's not necessary",
When Professor Liao said this, he smiled meaningfully.
"When you see another drawing, you will understand that this huge underground space is not what you imagined."
After Professor Liao finished speaking, he took out the underground survey map below and put it in front of Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi saw a very intricate underground cave appear on the drawing, as complex as a large underground tree root.
"This is a detailed image of the underground structure that we measured using far-infrared rays. When you see this picture, you will understand that the underground area is actually a large, tangled tree root. These wooden roots have long since disappeared. But
The holes left by the tree roots in the soil have been crystallized by the carbon element. There are hundreds of thousands of caves formed by these holes. In other words, what is underneath is actually a large, intricate maze."
"maze?"
Chen Zhi held up the big map and looked carefully. Sure enough, he saw that the entire underground space was just a dense mass of thousands of twists and turns of tree roots, one after another, one after another, intricately intertwined, and every cave was connected.
Going to different places, if you want to find the exit inside them, it is simply more difficult than climbing to the sky.
"This is where we are now," Professor Liao pointed to the top of the maze of tree roots.
"Of course, I don't advise you to go down to this place, but if you insist on going down to die, this survey drawing can be used as a map. One of these tangled tree root caves leads directly to the ground and is very winding.
But we have found it using a computer and marked it with colors. As long as you follow this path, you won't get lost."
After Professor Liao finished speaking, he pointed on the drawing. There was a red route in the maze that looked like rotten tree roots. This route wound forward to the deepest part of the maze.
"This is the end of this huge underground area. There may be what you are looking for there, but this underground labyrinth has been formed for tens of millions of years. It has gone through a lot of changes. I can't tell you what is waiting for you down there now."
