I carried Long Wu's supplies and asked the fat man to meet me on top, and then together we came to the tree where Long Wu was.
When I stood still and looked carefully, I was surprised to find that where we were was just a thick branch!
The main body of this branch, that is, the main trunk actually grows in the rock wall. Only a small part of the main body can be vaguely seen, but it is as thick as five people surrounding it!
When I came to the place with the densest branches and leaves, I couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and look at the surrounding woods. If this big tree was not ranked first in Zhelong Valley, then it would really be a ghost!
Big trees that grow in mountains do exist. The Huangshan Four Treasures Welcome Pine is one kind. That kind of tree grows on cliffs. Without soil, it only relies on sunlight, rain, dew and a small amount of nutrients. It grows extremely slowly. It takes decades to grow. A long circle.
At this time, the fat man asked me: "Old Cao, I'm a little confused now. Well, please help me calculate it. If it takes a few decades to grow a circle, how many years will it take for it to be as thick as five people embracing it?"
"Thousands of years! Even tens of thousands of years!"
I was so shocked that I could only tell him such a vague number. Because I really can't imagine that a tree can grow so huge inside the mountain. This is really a miracle, no, it should be said to be a miracle.
It is like a potted plant accidentally knocked over by some god in the sky, and planted horizontally in the mortal place of Zhelong Valley. Neither life nor death, neither destruction nor destruction.
The fat man still couldn't understand the shock in my heart. He said that when he went out to sea on a boat, he saw a foreign tree, a large banyan tree. It grows very huge, with a diameter of several hundred meters, several times larger than the one under our feet. It can be said that one tree can become a forest!
I told Fatty that if you want to see banyan trees, you don’t have to go abroad. We have them in China, and they are several hundred meters in diameter. But there is absolutely no comparison between that kind of banyan tree and the mountain rock tree we are stepping on at the moment.
Trees that can break through earth are common, but trees that can break through stone are very rare!
The roots of those big banyan trees you see grow into the soft soil. And the tree under our feet is drilling hard into the rock wall! Think about it, the roots of a tree can penetrate a hard rock wall. How much persistence and energy it takes! It has grown here for tens of thousands of years, which means that its roots have also been interspersed in this mountain for tens of thousands of years. It is hard to say that this seemingly complete mountain has already been riddled with holes inside, covered with trees that are thousands of years old. root!
I don't know if Fatty understood it, but the entrance to the cave discovered by Long Wu quickly attracted my attention again.
I hurriedly went forward to check and found that there was a cool breeze coming out of the hole, indicating that the penetration inside must be connected to other exits.
Being blown by the cool breeze, my lips became even drier. Except for the half bottle I drank in the early morning, it can be said that I haven't drunk any water so far.
It is said that eggs should not be put in one basket, but this seemingly ordinary water has been ignored by us. Fortunately, other important equipment is scattered and packed, otherwise the losses here are unpredictable.
It sounds like I'm going to give Fatty a big reprieve for missing the perfect opportunity to regain the water resources just for a short while. But then again, it's not a blessing in disguise. Without this incident, it would have been difficult to discover this hidden cave.
This time the fat man vowed to rush to the front bravely and vowed to take revenge for being teased twice in a row. He stuck out his big butt and crawled in with a squeaking sound. He crawled five or six meters in but then retreated back. He said that he didn't see it clearly just now. It was getting narrower and narrower inside, which was extremely unsuitable for my fat body shape. I was afraid that my body would get stuck later. So take off the bag first, push it in front , or put it under the chest, it will be more comfortable.
We filed in closely behind, and Long Wu chose the position at the back.
After climbing for a while, the fat man's speed suddenly slowed down. I asked him what was wrong and why he didn't crawl forward.
The fat man said in a muffled voice: "My leg seemed to have been scratched by something. I didn't feel any pain just now, but now it hurts more and more as I climb. It hurts a lot."
As he spoke, he tried hard to sit up, but the cave here was really narrow. It would be good if his fat body could crawl through it. He also wanted to sit up and see if he was injured. Obviously impossible.
I lowered the brightness of the strong flashlight slightly and shined a light on the path that the fat man in front of me crawled along. Fortunately, there was no trace of blood, which reassured me a lot.
And we are fully equipped this time, plus the weapons we acquired along the way, it can be said that we are fully armed!
The clothes on his body are all tactical equipment. Anti-cut, anti-scratch, and extremely flexible. If the fat man got a big puncture on his leg so easily, it can only mean one thing, and that is that he cut corners in purchasing! If this kid is acting secretly and sneakily while doing things for himself, it would be like shooting himself in the foot.
But the pair of real shoes under my feet told me that the fat man did not choose to do that. He was willing to spend thousands of dollars to buy shoes, so how could he be reluctant to part with cheaper tactical uniforms.
So I told the fat man that I had taken a photo just now and there was no blood. You were probably stung by some small stone. Climb slowly on the road ahead and be sure to see clearly.
Hearing my comfort, the fat man felt relieved. He gave up trying to sit up and continued crawling.
Because of this incident, I paid careful attention to pebbles along the way, but the strangest thing was that until we climbed to a wider turning area, I didn't find any hard and sharp things along the way.
In fact, everyone has claustrophobia. As long as they are normal humans, they have an innate fear of narrowness and depression. However, everyone's tolerance is different, so some people who show it are not afraid of darkness and narrowness. But in fact, it is just that the critical point of his endurance has not yet been reached.
After climbing for such a long time, even a fat man who had been a local master could not bear it. He was finally able to turn around, check his trousers again and said:
"It's better to be thinner, otherwise you'll have too much meat when you use it! This narrow cave reminds me of the time I went to the Northeast one year to play with mink. The kind of mink specializes in catching sea rats and rabbits. Tie it up A miniature camera was then put into the soil hole. It smelled the smell and chased the rabbit away. No matter how hard the rabbit burrowed, it couldn't escape. What we saw on the screen connected to the camera was really clear. .Do you think we look like that kind of mink now, and the mandrill that stole our rhinestones and got in here is a rabbit!
I really don't like the fat man trope. How could this mandrill be a rabbit? This is an extremely ferocious and cruel primate. It is only afraid of us because we have guns in our hands. But in this narrow cave, guns cannot be used at all, so we must be very alert. Don't let that black-faced mandrill take advantage of you again.
Because we have climbed so far, we still can't tell whether the black-faced ghost deliberately led us in, or whether he escaped in a panic.
The fat man was also frightened after hearing this. He smacked his lips and said: "Tsk tsk... It seems that this formation is not that easy to fight. It is really dangerous! Fortunately, the ghost mandrill didn't turn around and attack just now. Otherwise, it would be difficult to turn over in this narrow cave! Fatty! Isn’t your face going to be scratched by that thing!”
I said that catching flowers is pretty light, but I might as well chew off the whole nose. I heard that this thing is very evil and likes to bite the softest and most vulnerable parts of people's bodies. Apart from the neck, my favorite part is the nose, followed by the ears, and finally the eyes. I heard someone say before that an old farmer who went up the mountain to collect medicine accidentally encountered two mandrills. The two mandrills were one big and one small. The smaller one was confusing the old man in front, while the big one passed by coldly. The old farmer only felt that the mandrills were behind him. I felt a cold feeling between my neck and temples. I touched my face first and found nothing was missing. I wanted to touch my ears quickly. However, when I raised my hands, I found nothing on my right hand side!
Only then did he realize that one of his ears had been torn off by the mandrill passing by in the air. I saw the ghost-faced mandrill holding his ears and gnawing fiercely, and his mouth kept making crunching sounds! Naturally, the old farmer was so furious that he raised his farm knife to take back his half-eaten ear!
But he also forgot one thing, that is, there was a little one in front of him! But when I lowered my head and looked again, there was no trace of that little one!
Suddenly, he felt something warm on the back of his neck, and something furry lay on his head, with two furry legs and a red butt sitting on his neck.
The old farmer knew it was the little one that was causing trouble, but he didn't dare let it suck the blood from the broken right ear. But he had just protected his right ear and was about to raise his knife to slash, but the extremely flexible little mandrill covered his face and bit his nose! The pain of having the cartilage, skin and flesh that had been with him for decades being torn apart and swallowed was unimaginable!
After hearing this, the fat man carefully touched his nose. Looking at it, he was a little scared, but he also seemed to be secretly glad.
The fat man rubbed his nose and asked: "This cave is too tight for us, but the mandrill must be running very fast. Now there is a fork in the road. Why don't you come up with an idea, Lao Cao, which way should we go?" If it doesn't work, I'll just throw a shoe. Hey... the ceiling of this cave is a bit low, so it seems like throwing it away is in vain."
I told the fat man that there was no need to throw away the shoes. Although the two entrances on the left and right of the inverted figure of eight gave us a little breathing room, we couldn't withstand his tossing like this. We were already crowded and now we can finally turn around. Look at you quickly. Then don't cover it. Let me observe and analyze it, and we will discuss it together and make a decision.
Apart from being two circles larger than the previous passage, the two entrances have nothing special about them. I started with the smell. Although it was a little disgusting, there was no other way to deal with the ghost mandrill that had long since escaped without a trace.
The mandrill has lived in the wild for a long time, and his body is extremely smelly. Every place he crawls along the way leaves a strong smell of monkey smell. However, there was an obvious smell at both entrances. It was not difficult to guess that the mandrill must have stopped here. It seemed that it was in a dilemma, walking around here and there, not knowing which side to choose!
There are enemies chasing after him, and the mandrill, like a frightened bird, is still thinking about circling around, hesitating, and it must have lost its way!I suddenly realized that the entrance to the cave was most likely the mandrill’s choice made in a panic! It is very likely that it is also spinning in this intricate and continuous cave.This way it will be much better. I am not afraid that you will get lost, but I am afraid that you will be clear! If you are wise enough to quickly throw your secondary bag where you are, then when we get the water, we won’t waste any more effort chasing you!But if you think about it more carefully, this possibility seems too small. The mandrill is extremely greedy by nature, and it is extremely difficult to take something back from it unless it doesn't want it.It seems that there is only one way left to get it back, and that is to kill it with your own hands! There was a strong smell of monke
Crawling in the narrow cave, everyone spoke as if they had installed a loudspeaker. At this time, the surroundings of the cave wall became slippery. Presumably, the heavy rain last night must have rainwater pouring into this place. There was a brief moment in this cave wall. Standing water.Long Wu also told us that Yunnan’s special rice wine was mixed with kamba powder, which had the magical effect of concentrating the mind and gathering energy after drinking. The person holding the wine must have encountered some misfortune, so he hid at sea. And that person should be a bug master. Bug masters are also sensitive to various plant pollens. The nose is very important. That is their secret medicine to improve the sensitivity of the nose.In Yunnan's Shiwan Mountains, there are many people who use Gu to control insects. Although they have heard about it before, they don't know the detailed secrets. Just when he was about to ask Long Wu how he knew these things, he su
If we go forward this time, Fatty and I don't even dare to look back. In the past, people said that they had no fear of ghosts and gods. That was said by people who had never seen ghosts. This time I really saw something evil. It is absolutely impossible to say that I am not heartbroken!At the wine table, I often hear people who drink too much say that they will kill gods when they meet them, and they will kill ghosts when they meet ghosts. But if you really see a ghost, I believe that a normal person will hide away. Everyone has only one courage, and if he is frightened, he will be finished. I won’t mess with this kind of thing if I can, and I won’t hit it head-on if I can take a detour!Everyone can talk about seeing ghosts, but no one has seen it with their own eyes. Today I suddenly saw that thing that looked like a grimace, so I’d better put aside the rhetoric. It’s better to be realistic, but there’s no need to worry about being realistic!Since there
Long Wu talks little, so Fatty's jokes were naturally rejected within two sentences.Before entering the underground river, I carefully examined the shore and surrounding rock formations.Knocking off a few protruding rocks, we found that there were many shell fossils in the rock formations. Based on the gray-white color and the contents, it was not difficult to analyze that we were in a limestone formation in a mountain somewhere!I said to myself: Although I dare not claim to be knowledgeable about the past and the present, over the years of running antiques, I have seen a lot of things that should be seen, and a lot of things that should not be seen! This is a rare fossilized shell, the only one found in the Netherlands. I immediately determined that millions of years ago, there was a vast ocean here!The vicissitudes of life and endless reincarnations, could this be the meaning of Dragon Palace?Suddenly, for a moment, I felt a certain sense
No one noticed when that thing lay on the fat man's back, including Long Wu. When he saw the white thing diving into the water, he didn't panic, but he scanned the surroundings twice as fast.The fat man held the gun and carefully aimed at the place where the ghost entered the water. At this time, there were only circles of expanding water waves in that area, and the white shadow seemed to be still at the bottom of our raft."It doesn't seem to be a ghost! If it were a water ghost, we would have been dragged into the water a long time ago. Why the hell are you blowing air after others?"At this time, Long Wu made a silent gesture, strode up to the fat man, stared at the fat man for a while, and then said that his yang energy was too weak, and he must have been entangled with dirty things in the past, so it was easier to provoke him now. Put on unclean things.I said no. I once gave him an ancient jade to ward off evil spirits, and the master personally
People have three fires, and these three fires represent whether a person's yang energy is prosperous.One for the head and one for each shoulder.When a man is young and middle-aged, as long as his heart is righteous and there are no evil thoughts in his mind, his yang energy is the strongest in his life. Then, without self-cultivation, the three flames representing the yang energy will weaken year by year.The so-called lamp goes out when a person dies. This is not simply a metaphor for a person's life.Its meaning, on the surface, is that human life is like a burning oil lamp, the flame grows from weak to strong, and then gradually weakens. Until the last drop of lamp oil was burned, the wick flickered suddenly and finally went out.The deeper meaning refers to the three fires that represent human Yang Qi. Before death, the three fires will suddenly go out, which is very different from the often said return of light.When does an oil lam
This series of puzzling actions only happened in the blink of an eye. In just a moment, he raised the knife with one hand and cut his own palm!However, something even more puzzling happened again in less than half a second. He suddenly used a move to sweep away thousands of troops at me, and the black gold knife was aimed at the bullet on my neck. A round thing!For a moment, I felt a cold light mixed with golden light spots roaring towards me.I yelled in my heart: It’s over! This head is going to visit!I, Mr. Cao, have been immersed in the antique industry so far and have seen countless rare and rare treasures. Although the prices are high, it can be said that I have lived a magnanimous life. How could I expect to lose my life at the hands of my newly sworn brother Jinlan! It is also a horrible way to die if your head is moved!Long Wu took action, a man who was faster than a one-eyed leopard. I, Mr. Cao, had no room to resist, and I didn't e
The fat man was eager to try, and responded excitedly. As the direction of the engineer's shovel changed, he cooperated with me to push the air raft closer to the mark.The air raft arrived in front of the stone wall in a blink of an eye. I told the fat man: "Don't be too happy. The wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated. They would not be able to carve a boat and find a sword."After all, go and study the marks on the stone wall.This stone wall is very smooth. It must have withstood the erosion of the river for many years. At this moment, my head is less than one meter away from the top of the water cave. It is in an oval arc, and the entire water cave is just like that. Like a giant gate, only much deeper.He touched the mark with his fingers, clasped it hard, and picked off a piece of dark red paint. He held it in front of his nose and sniffed. Except for the smell of damp water vapor, there was no other irritating volatilization.Ge
We covered the stored fresh water and kept it in the corner of the cabin as the most precious resource, and wrapped it with protective measures. In fact, the so-called protective measure is our diving suit. We use the diving suit as the outer skin of the water storage barrel. Only with the support of waterproof material can we lock the water source, otherwise it would have evaporated and lost not a drop left.These wetsuits are the key guarantee for us to be able to emerge safely from the deep sea, otherwise it will be more than just a nosebleed and tinnitus. I have heard before that if a person encounters pressure loss in the deep sea, he will turn into a piece of meat.Staring at this fresh water wrapped in a diving suit, which is more precious than gold, and then thinking back to life on the shore, there are usually many mineral water bottles that are thrown away after one sip, as well as open water dispensers in the streets and alleys. It flows wantonly and is
To be honest, under the circumstances at that time, I was really scared.At the beginning, the Yin wooden ship disintegrated, and human instinct drove the body to swim quickly to the isolated island.It takes a lot of courage to dive into the dark water from the island!Don’t be afraid of the deep sea when going into the sea. Otherwise, you will be very worried that a strange big mouth will suddenly open down below, bite the person's leg, and then drag the person down desperately.It is precisely because Ivy is very aware of this that she jumps into the sea first without hesitation, because the dismembered Yin wooden boat has the blood of sea bats on it, which will easily attract sharks.Shallow sea sharks like to wander in the reefs, and the terrain at this time is in line with their living habits, so they must seize the time.At this time, I discovered that the long, slanted satchel on Avril's back was no longer there. She must have place
It stands to reason that the giant squid lives in extremely deep waters and would not appear easily.We waited nervously for a long time, and finally moved the tentacle away. Suddenly we found that a large number of huge fish had gathered outside, including killer whales, and many unnamed giant fish. Strange fish, their bodies are abnormal and very rare.No wonder!It turns out that the suicidal behavior of sea bats attracted many giant undersea mammals, and the collapse of the undersea tomb caused the "qi" of this sea area to change.An undersea giant like the giant squid is extremely sensitive to these perceptions. It knows that something big has happened in the area where it lives. Just like people like to gather at the entrance of the village to watch the fun, it came here specially. Not only did it find a lot of prey, here it refers to whales and the like, the giant squid also discovered this strange dark wooden boat we were on.The Yin wood
However, what I have to worry about next is how to survive. The sea here is so vast and unfathomable that floating up like this is no different from dying.However, the sky is the limit, and when everyone is at the end of their rope, they suddenly see a large ship rushing out of the collapsed underwater tomb. After a closer look, it is the Yin wooden ship from the Ming Dynasty that stands out among the shipwreck graveyard!I immediately told everyone with gestures that it was Shen Wansan's ship, and it was time for him to pay off his debt!If we want to survive, we have to rely on this dark wooden ship built under the supervision of Shen Wansan himself!A large number of sea bats emerged from the collapsed holes in the water and swam into the sea water. We desperately approached the life-saving ship that was constantly rising in the sea.The Yinmu boat is a rare navigation weapon in the world. It is not unreasonable that it can be preserved to th
Emperor Shilong is now being occupied by two souls. I don't know who to help at this moment. Logically speaking, I should help the owner of this body, which is King Qin himself.But the King of Qin was very capable. Even if we help him, he will not let those of us who trespass into the underground palace go.If we help that Shen Wansan, in the conversation with him just now, he already had a playful look at the end. To that wealthy businessman, we are just like little ants, after we have had enough fun. It is definitely not allowed to stay.So, it's too difficult at this time.The fat man said at this time: "Old Cao, why are the scenes in ghost movies appearing here? This is obviously two souls fighting for one body. His face turns white and red, and his body is about to explode. Let's run away now. "escape? Where to escape? The situation inside this meteorite has not yet been fully understood. There are minotaurs and flying generals outside, an
It is said that many people have seen strange things in the Forbidden City.I mean, on a thunderstorm night. In the haziness, I saw a guard carrying a lantern patrolling the palace. Some people also heard palace maids hiding in corners, whispering and laughing. Some people also saw eunuchs hurriedly passing by with their heads lowered in a trance, rubbing their eyes as if nothing had happened.This phenomenon seems to only occur during thunderstorms and under special astrological conditions. Many people have tried to explain this matter, but in the end they are not so perfect. There are doubts of one kind or another, and they cannot fully explain this phenomenon. These weird things are like a video, played repeatedly at specific times.As another example, take the Frightening Manger. There is a place called the Frightening Manger.This place will also inexplicably hear the roaring sounds of fighting on ancient battlefields, the sound of military drums,
The current mystery is getting bigger and bigger. Now we can only follow Long Wu's words and escape to the deeper area quickly, otherwise the black shadow will cause trouble.Long Wu used the black gold mountain cutting blade to lure away the flying zombie. The three of us took the opportunity to escape the barrier where the flying zombie stayed. The process was quite thrilling. Long Wu could only dodge and could not compete with the flying zombie. The master is tough.The bird-headed zombie was still focused on the fleeing black shadow. When it attacked Long Wu, it had been distracted looking for the weird black shadow. The direction it moved its head was undoubtedly towards the deeper darkness. at.We had already escaped and hurriedly called Long Wu. At the same time, Avril opened fire to cover. Long Wu saw the right moment and escaped, and then narrowly escaped to meet us.The bird-headed zombie stopped at the barrier. Although the barrier was invis
The bronze chain that bound the bird-headed flying general, under its crazy impact, even the diamond chain of Taishang Laojun, should have been broken.There was a crisp sound, and everyone's hearts sank. The monster finally ran out!As the saying goes, there is a wolf in front and a tiger behind. We cannot escape from the location of the altar. There are countless sea bats waiting for us there.Now we can only go against the direction of the copper coffin and escape deeper.The copper coffin is more like a dividing line, a chasm that cannot be crossed by those sea bats.It's just that he doesn't know if there are any traps on the road ahead, so he flees in panic. If the trap is triggered, he will end up dead.The fat man was still turning around to shoot, covering the retreat of the expedition team. The bullet hitting the bird-headed zombie was like hitting a copper chimney. The bullet knocked out sparks, and it was unknown where they were
The first three generals to emerge from the coffin actually looked like a birdman, completely matching the title of Flying General.It has a pair of rotten wings waving on its back, and it emits an extremely evil stench. Its nostrils are turned upward, its eyes are hollow, without eyeballs, and its mouth is full of fangs. Yes, the fangs are pointed, intertwined with each other, and they are all long fangs. It is stagnant in mid-air, and the pair of fleshy wings can actually assist it in flying at low altitudes.The first zombie that jumped out of the bronze coffin can be said to have copper skin and iron bones. Its body is like a steel plate. It stands to reason that there are no flies in this seabed area, so there is no such thing as maggots. Maggots will not grow. But the faces and rotting flesh wings of the zombies of the three generals were covered with white rice-like worms, and they were still squirming. After looking carefully, I found that the squirming in
