Chapter 40: Cave Exploration
Stones fell, dust splashed.
The two waited for a moment, only to see the dust settle and a tunnel appear in front of them. Wang Feng squatted down and watched, only to see that the tunnel was a little deep, and he didn't know where it led, let alone how long it was.
However, the tunnel is quite spacious, and you can get into it as long as you bend down.
Zhang Chu took a lighter, lit a piece of dead vine, acted as a torch, and passed directly into the tunnel.
The flames flickered in the tunnel, showing no signs of extinguishing.
This shows that there is air movement in the tunnel, and it is not a dead end.
Zhang Chu said excitedly: "I'll go in and have a look." ”
"Stay safe. Wang Feng didn't object, because he also wanted to go in.
"Hmm. ”
Zhang Chu nodded heavily, then held the torch and cautiously drilled into the tunnel, first clearing out some messy rocks before going deep into it, and the figure disappeared.
However, Wang Feng also saw the swaying light and shadow in the tunnel.
After a while, Zhang Chu's exclamation and screams passed through the tunnel and reached Wang Feng's ears. His expression remained unchanged, and he shouted urgently: "Zhang Chu, Zhang Chu...... Are you alright, what's going on?"
In a hurry, he grabbed a torch and rushed into the tunnel. When he was groping the tunnel, Zhang Chu's response came: "I'm fine...... Just scared, you come on. ”
"There's a situation here......"
Zhang Chu's voice has also changed its tone a little, full of surprises.
The tunnel is not very long, only twenty or thirty meters.
Wang Feng lit it with a torch and soon saw an exit.
On the edge of the exit, it was Zhang Chu's figure.
Wang Feng walked quickly, and faintly heard the sound of running water in his ears. At first, the sound was relatively weak. But when he got to the exit, the sound of the water was very distinct.
"You're here......"
Zhang Chu greeted Wang Feng at the exit, he had an excited expression on his face, very excited: "There is no cave, there is really a cave." It's a big cave and there's an underground river......"
Wang Feng saw it and knew that what Zhang Chu said was true.
When he walked to the exit, he looked intently, only to see that it was dark and hazy in front of him.
But by the light of the fire, you can also see a radius of dozens of meters, but it is a huge cave hall. Not far from them, there was a rushing underground undercurrent, flowing happily.
There is water, there is plenty of space, and there is naturally a surge of air.
It's no wonder that they weren't bored at all in the tunnel.
On the contrary, the breath here is fresh, the humidity is suitable, and it gives people a feeling of coolness, which is a summer resort.
"There are holes in holes. ”
Zhang Chu said excitedly: "This place must be hiding something." ”
"Perhaps. ”
Wang Feng was quite calm: "I hope not, I like it again." ”
"No, it won't. ”
While speaking, Zhang Chu's excited voice suddenly lowered by half. He leaned a little closer to Wang Feng and said cautiously: "Just now, I saw a ...... on the edge of the dark river Ahem, white bones. ”
"What?"
Wang Feng's heart palpitated.
"Bones, skeletons. ”
Zhang Chu added: "So I was taken aback and screamed. ”
He felt a little embarrassed.
However, Wang Feng felt that this was normal.
When ordinary people see a white bone skeleton or something, it's basically like this, it's normal for people to react.
At this time, Wang Feng was like this, and his heart was a little hairy.
If you are afraid, you are not afraid, but there is a bit of a taboo. In particular, their torches are about to burn out. The huge cave hall is also getting darker and darker.
In an instant, Wang Feng made a decision: "Let's go, go out first." I'm ready to go back and come back. ”
“…… Good. ”
Zhang Chu also agreed, the torches were about to burn out, the dark cave hall, I couldn't see anything clearly, wouldn't I leave to hide and seek with the white bone skeleton?
At that moment, the two of them retreated and returned to the cave outside. Compared with the depression just now, now they are in a very happy mood, and there is a kind of joy that keeps the clouds open and sees the moon.
"Go, go back. ”
Zhang Chu couldn't wait to say: "Strong flashlights, searchlights, headlamps or something, let's do a dozen first." There is also a variety of professional equipment, which cannot be ignored ......"
"By the way, do you want to ask for two peace charms to drive away evil spirits?"
Zhang Chu turned his head and said with a hesitant expression: "Ghost repellent or something, are you going to have two?"
"Ahem. ”
Wang Feng's expression was calm: "We have righteousness in our hearts...... Just make two pieces of mahogany talismans. ”
"Makes sense. ”
Zhang Chu thought so, and continued: "I don't know if there are snakes, bring two pieces of realgar, just in case." By the way, there are also cinnabar powder, black dog blood, white glutinous rice......"
Wang Feng couldn't listen anymore and reminded: "Hey, we are cave exploration, not tomb robbery notes." ”
“…… That's right, too. ”
Zhang Chu smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm thinking too much." ”
Wang Feng rolled his eyes, then squatted down and covered the tunnel mouth in the corner with gravel again.
In fact, there is a wooden board at the mouth of this tunnel. However, it may be that the old age of the wooden planks has completely decayed, so as soon as he twitched the stone, the tunnel was completely exposed to their eyes.
That's also a ...... Providence.
The two had a tacit understanding, and after covering the entrance of the tunnel again, they hurried away.
Back in the mountain village, Zhang Chu went straight to the county seat to buy all kinds of equipment. As for Wang Feng, he calmed down, cooked honestly, and sent it to Du Nanxing by the way.
More than half a month has passed, and Dunan Xing has been staying in the workshop.
He worked morning till night, and he was forging swords. When you are sleepy and tired, you can rest on the bamboo bed in the workshop. I felt refreshed, so I got up and continued to work. Day and night, never stopping.
Wang Feng felt unbearable when he saw it, and wanted to persuade Du Nanxing to rest for two days before continuing.
But Dunan Xing seemed to be crazy and turned a deaf ear.
Wang Feng came to the workshop, only to see that in the red firelight, Du Nanxing was naked, he raised a huge hammer, and the muscles of his whole body were trembling, as if containing infinite power.
At first glance, Wang Feng subconsciously took out his mobile phone to capture.
Click, the camera light flashed, Du Nanxing didn't notice it in the slightest, and smashed the hammer.
Sparks splattered, and a piece of reddish iron flattened.
This is a meteorite, which is melted into iron juice and cooled to obtain a piece of iron. For most of the month, Du Nanxing has repeatedly folded and forged iron. This is the ancient sword-casting process, which is made into steel.
Wang Feng doesn't understand craftsmanship, but he understands people's hearts.
There is no doubt that Dunan Xing attaches great importance to this matter and strives to do it to the extreme.
He tossed for more than half a month, and his body and mind were very tired, but his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, like bright stars in the night sky, blooming with brilliant brilliance.
It was only after noticing this that Wang Feng gave up persuasion.
It is a blessing to be able to devote yourself physically and mentally to doing what you love.
