Overshadowing the sun is always a demon
Chapter 19 A Pack of Diamonds
"Have you heard the echo?" Uncle Zhongyi finally spoke after a long time.
Everyone was silent.
"Do you want to try throwing something important?"
"No need, even if you throw a big cart down, you probably won't hear the sound." Uncle Zhongyi shook his head, with a surprised smile on his face, "No leakage, here is the no leakage recorded in ancient books. We I took the risk of taking the waterway and was rushed into the fork, but I didn't expect to find the bottom without any leaks."
It wasn't until this moment that Fadu came to his senses: "Rush into the side road? Did we go wrong from the beginning? This road is not in your plan at all?"
"Since you inherited the bloodline of Huasheng Temple, what else is in your plan?" Xiao Tang teased, "Even if you know, you can only follow me step by step to get here, do you know there is a difference? ?"
Fadu looked at him with a wry smile, Xiao Tang always chose to hide the truth from him, and he was really speechless when he was able to speak out so righteously the fallacy later on.
"Starting from the bottom without leaks, a small circle was drawn behind it. Judging by the proportion, it may be a platform, or it may be a stone chamber." Uncle Zhongyi is also a talent. Others read maps, and he is obviously memorizing maps.
That passage seemed fragile, but it was very reliable along the way, without any danger.A group of people continued to move forward, thinking that the seemingly endless passage would extend far, but they did not expect that after half an hour of groping, they had already reached the end of the passage.
Everyone was dumbfounded at the same time.
The passage was completely cut off right there. Although there was a cliff protruding out of the mist in front of it, the gap in the middle was tens of meters wide, and it could only be flown through with wings.What's even more astonishing is that there is no support at this end of the passage, and it just hangs in mid-air stably.
"Magnetic field! These minerals have a special response to magnetic fields! mamamia, they have used the magnetic levitation technology to the extreme!" Diego shouted, and was so excited that he was about to use a hammer to knock the next piece as a sample.
"Don't move around!" Xiao Tang scolded in a deep voice: "They must have gone through careful calculation and layout to successfully erect this floating bridge. Even if you just change its quality and state a little bit, it may destroy the balance of magnetic force Let the whole bridge fall into the abyss!"
When he said this, everyone stood still and did not dare to act rashly again.
Fadu muttered on the side: "Then what should we do? Since the road ahead is cut off, we can't stand here forever. Let's go back first and then make a long-term plan."
"Our supplies are getting less and less, so we can't keep delaying here." Facing the desperate situation, Xiao Tang was still confident, "Hold on to me."
"What? Damn!" Fa Du screamed, Xiao Tang grabbed him and jumped out of the opening in front of him.The two fell rapidly, and Fadu burst into tears, and there was only one thought left in his mind: Buddha save me!
The wind blew past his ears at high speed, and Xiao Tang raised a hand, there was a bang in his sleeve, the steel nail pulled a black rope and shot it towards the opposite cliff at high speed, and the direction of the two people also followed. changed.
The next second, Fadu realized that the two of them were gliding in the void at an extremely fast speed, and after a while, they stuck to the opposite stone wall like a gecko.Fadu was so frightened that his whole body froze. Even in ancient times, this skill was a top-notch snitch.
"Climb up."
The rocks here are iron-gray and very hard in texture, and the steel nails are not pierced very deep, which seems to be very dangerous.
Fadu stared at the cliff a few meters away: "You don't know if you can stabilize it, so you jump down. What if the steel nails are not secured?"
"Then think about it when the time comes." Little Tang, who was stuck here, was still so calm, "Climb first, and I will follow behind you."
"I'm not as well-trained as the Tang family. There are no protective measures here, and there are still several meters away from the cliff above... What if my hand slips?"
Xiao Tang put on a determined face: "Dead."
Fadu: -_-!
After Fadu managed to climb up to the top of the cliff, Xiao Tang jumped up from behind, with agility and strength: "You turn back and find a safe place to wait. I will meet the others."
The weight of the stone is always limited, and it is really unsafe to stand on that abrupt boulder, so Fadu obediently walked back a dozen steps.
This side is only tens of meters away from the suspension passage, and there is no smog on the other side, but this side is covered with smoky clouds, and you can't see anything clearly after only a few meters away.In addition to covering the scenery, the fog also blocked the transmission of sound. Xiao Tang was not far away from him, but he stood there listening to Xiao Tang's voice greeting other people, as far away as hundreds of meters away.
Just as Fadu calmed down, he suddenly smelled the smell of corpse water again.This time it was much stronger than what he smelled on the stone steps, as if overwhelming, it made his forehead ache from the choking.He looked around for a long time, but all he could see was thick white mist, and he couldn't see anything at all. He seemed to feel that there was something wandering around, but he couldn't see anything.
"Amitabha, Amitabha... It's all right, it's neurotic, neurotic. All appearances are illusory; if you see all appearances and non-appearances, you will see the Tathagata." Fa Du became more and more flustered, just thinking about Xiaotang and the others' reality. It was just a few meters away, and there was nothing to be afraid of, so I barely relied on chanting to calm my mind.
"What's the matter with you?" Xiao Tang came out of the thick fog carrying a bunch of things, and threw them all by his side, followed by two or three people.
"The smell of corpse water is too strong, I can't stand it."
"Is there any corpse water here? Why didn't I smell it?" Little don Juan turned to the others, who shook their heads blankly at the same time, obviously not aware of anything unusual. evil."
Fadu clutched his head in pain, his temples were throbbing with pain: "Is there a way to make my senses a little duller?"
"I can't help it, but it is said that boy urine can exorcise evil spirits, why don't you sprinkle some on your body?"
"Get lost..." As soon as Fa Du finished speaking, he heard Liu Shun behind Xiao Tang take a breath of cold air: "What is that?"
Fadu then turned back, and there was indeed a bunch of strange-shaped things in the fog. At first Fadu thought it was some kind of bush, but after a few seconds, he suddenly realized that it was dark all year round and there was no sunlight, so where would there be any bushes?
Xiao Tang leaned over and took a photo with a light stick. It turned out to be a bloody skeleton, which seemed to be a part of the body.
Fa Du took a few steps back in fright, almost vomited.
At this moment, Uncle Zhongyi, Alfonso and others have all come over, and they all gathered around to check what happened.
"The body skeleton doesn't look like a human being. It may be a large dog or other canids." Alfonso is an expert after all, and he can tell what species it is just by looking at such a messy piece of meat.
After hearing this explanation, Fadu finally felt much more comfortable: "Why do canids appear here?"
"The first possibility is that it was brought in by thieves or people with the same purpose as us, but it must pass through waterways, which is unlikely. The second possibility is that it may be wild dogs or jackals in the mountains , There are actually many entrances in the stalactite cave, and humans cannot enter due to their limited size, but canids are relatively flexible and have a keen sense of smell, so it is very likely that they came in for food by following the smell."
"The temperature here is so high that the blood has dried up. It's hard to tell when it happened, but it must have been torn apart by something, otherwise it would never have become like this." Xiao Tang actually said I can laugh, "It's a pity that it can't find food, and it has become someone else's meal."
"After hundreds of millions of years of evolution, the skeleton structure of living things can resist very strong pulling force and extrusion. What can tear the skeleton apart?" Diego also became nervous, looking around constantly, as if worried In the next second, something will rush over from the fog.
Fadu did not participate in the academic discussion, but added after everyone calmed down: "I would like to know what attracted them here."
Xiao Tang continued to smile heartlessly: "Wild dogs and wolves are scavengers, and there were such things everywhere in the mass graves in the past. What can attract them down is of course carrion."
"carrion?!"
"Don't be so busy that your legs are weak, if you don't walk faster, maybe you will be the next pile of carrion."
"Shao Lei, come and take a look." Uncle Zhongyi and the others have already moved forward, and it seems that they will soon discover something new.
"Oh, I'm going! What's so interesting about this!" Fadu followed and looked over, only to see three or four broken jackets mixed together with broken trekking poles, tattered spikes and the like, bloody and bloody. Out of shape.Even without Alfonso's identification, Fadu can be sure that the bones discovered this time undoubtedly belong to humans.
"Look at these things." Uncle Zhongyi wore gloves and took a trekking pole to rummage through the wreckage, and soon found a tattered hiking bag.He gently pulled the bag, and the bag immediately fell to the ground, and two or three yellowish-white stones rolled out, covered with a layer of dust, the small ones were like pigeon eggs, and the big ones were half the size of a fist. so big.
"What is this? Is it worth money?" Fadu knew that no one would be so stupid as to go all out for a few worthless stones, but just looking at the few unremarkable stones, the light stick and the granite on the floor could be seen. Marble is really no different.
"Worth it? For jewelers, they are priceless treasures." Uncle Zhongyi picked up one and wiped it casually with his gloves. Then he turned on the light. The moment the light touched the stone, a dazzling spot appeared on the refracting surface. The flames dazzled people instantly.
"diamond?"
"There is no identification equipment around me. Judging by the naked eye, their clarity should be above IF. It is just an uncut rough stone. It is so big. If it is cut, the fire should be even more amazing." Uncle Zhongyi said When it was over, he threw the diamond back again.
Fadu felt very strange: "Don't you take the diamond away?"
"We are not tomb robbers. If we want gold, silver and jewelry, there are enough sacrifices in the coffin under the water bowl for a lifetime. What the old Tang family wants are real treasures, and those things cannot be seen by us at all." Xiao Xiao Tang paused for a moment, but he breathed a sigh of relief, "From the direction of these bones, it seems that they are fleeing outwards. They should have only picked up some oil stars on the periphery, and did not enter the hinterland."
Fadu suddenly felt cold: "Wait a minute! Did you hear anything?"
Hoo hoo... There was a burst of even breathing in the mist, like the guttural sound of a wild beast preparing to attack. Although it was extremely subtle, it was enough to prove its existence.
Everyone was silent.
"Do you want to try throwing something important?"
"No need, even if you throw a big cart down, you probably won't hear the sound." Uncle Zhongyi shook his head, with a surprised smile on his face, "No leakage, here is the no leakage recorded in ancient books.
