Chapter 510: Underground Lake
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
"If it's really a gathering place for sand scorpions, maybe the red-tailed sand scorpion leader is on it. "Flower pole heavenly way.
Yuan Qingta nodded. It's hilarious to do something like nodding in the water.
Jiang Liran suddenly had a stirring spirit and said, "I know what kind of place this is." β
"Of course it's in the water, stupid, what else can it be. Hua Jitian said.
The transmission of the sound into the secret could not stop the two of them from despising each other.
"Hehe, you should be despised by me a thousand times. I mean the location. β
Yuan Qingta said: "Xianren Lake is in the center of the Ugdos Desert, the closest to the outside, and it is also seven or eight hundred miles, so if you go up here, it should still be a desert." β
Jiang nodded clearly: "Yes, it's a desert, but it's not a desert." β
Hua Jitian was even more contemptuous: "It's just, it's just an insult to your elementary school Chinese teacher." β
Jiang Zhiran was in his chest, he didn't care about Hua Jitian's contempt at all, and said proudly: "Let's dive down the big hole for nearly three hundred meters, and then walk the horizontal hole." Do you know the direction of the horizontal cave?"
Yuan Qingta said: "To the north, it is basically due north. β
"That's right. Fifty miles to the north of Xianren Lake, there are things with the same name as Xianren Lake"
"Devil's Town. Yuan Qingta said, he had seen the map, but he didn't care.
A trace of confusion flashed on Hua Jitian's face, and then he also shouted: "Yes, yes, yes, I also remember, it's Devil's City." "In fact, when he started, he didn't even know about the Ugdos Desert, where did he know about the Devil's City.
"Oh, yes the hell. I bet you don't know. Jiang Zhiran sneered.
"That's not the point. The point is that even if it's a devil's town above, what's the matter. "Flower pole heavenly way.
"The terrain of Devil City is very complicated, let's go in to find abuse. Devil's City is also a kind of wind-formed landform, that is, the stone mountain has been invaded by wind and sand for thousands of years, forming a thousand strange shapes. When the breeze blows, the sound is very beautiful, like hundreds of lyres playing, and like countless brass bells ringing in unison, when the wind and sand are strong, the wind shuttles and whirls between the strange stones of various shapes, making a sharp and tragic sound, the ghost cries God's horn, the wolf howls and the ape howls, if it is in the starry night, the situation is even more terrifying. That's why it became the Devil's Town. Jiang said clearly.
"You know a lot, but it's all nonsense. "Flower pole heavenly way.
"Actually, I used to search for it from the Internet. This devil's city, with a radius of about twenty miles, is not too big or small. Jiang said clearly. He also occasionally glanced at the Internet, and then came to Banmen to get an axe.
In fact, he introduced so much, and it is useful in one sentence, the terrain of Devil City is complex.
For reptilian sand scorpions, the complex terrain is the most advantageous, and if they go in, there are many disadvantages, it is better to be in the desert.
Jiang Shuran had been to this devil city once before, but he just took a cursory look at it, and he didn't find any difference between this devil city and the devil cities in other places.
"Now it seems that the red-tailed sand scorpion has most likely taken over this devil's city. Yuan Qingta said.
"If the sand scorpion occupies this place, why is there such a bright light?" Jiang was puzzled.
"Maybe it's natural fluorescent stone or something?" Yuan Qingta was well-informed after all, so he didn't know what to expect.
"We're going to have to go up and have a look anyway, and I took the glow sticks. Hua Jitian controlled the remnant sword, flew in front of him, untied the glow stick, and stuffed it all into the storage space.
The water here is still very clear, just like in the fairy lake. Therefore, the light of the glow stick can travel far away. In order not to startle the snake, it should be put away.
"Hua Jitian uses the remnant sword to protect in front of me. Jiang Zhiran guarded the back. Yuan Qingta grabbed the Langyue Silver Hammer with both hands, ready to continue up.
"Good. Hua Jitian and Jiang Liran both agreed.
Get moving.
Eight remnant swords in front, then Yuan Qingta, who took the lead, then Hua Jitian and Jiang Zhiran, and finally, only Jiang Zhiran's nine-handled flying knives.
The three of them walked towards the bright exit ahead.
Ever since they saw the bright light, it was very strange, it was night, even if there was starlight and moonlight, it would not look so bright under the water, and the brightness of native fluorescent stones and the like would not generally reach this level.
As they got closer to the bright light exit, the three of them walked more and more slowly. Although the slope is steep, the three of them can still walk easily because of the buoyancy of the water.
After a while, I walked to the bright exit.
At the exit, there is a platform seven or eight meters square, like a stairwell flat ground, and the ramp passage is like a staircase.
The platform is on the wall of an underground lake, and if there is no water, it looks like a cave and a platform on a cliff. It seems that there are still dozens of meters above the water. And below, it's still dark, I don't know how deep.
"It's an underground lake. Yuan Qingta looked up a few times and said.
This underground lake, which should be the end of an underground river, is very narrow and long, how long is it, they are at the bottom of the water, the line of sight is not good, and they can't judge it for the time being, but the width is not too wide, only more than 100 meters.
They came out of the passage to the exit of the lake, which was on one side of the lake, and the light, on the other side.
"It turns out that this is the source of the Immortal Lake. "Flower pole heavenly way.
"Yes, although the water in the cave will flow back and forth, the time to flow to the Immortal Lake is always longer than the time to return, that is to say, the water here flows to the Immortal Lake a lot more, but it flows back less. Yuan Qingta said.
On the way here, they already felt the problem, but they couldn't figure it out and didn't pay much attention to it.
"If this is the water source, then the water should flow all the way to the Immortal Lake, why does it flow back and forth?" Jiang was puzzled. The Western Regions have always been arid, and Jiang Xiaoran really doesn't know much about the characteristics of water.
"Tides, tides brought about by a change in wind direction. On the ground, when the wind blows from the Immortal Lake to the Devil's City, the wind pressure on the surface of the Immortal Lake becomes lower, creating a suction force, and the water flows to the Immortal Lake in large quantities. Vice versa. Yuan Qingta said.
"Since the wind on the surface has an effect on this underground lake, it means that this underground lake also has many passages with the ground. "Flower pole heavenly way.
If this place is closed, the effect of wind pressure on the flow of water will be greatly reduced, and it will certainly not be as obvious as they feel.
Jiang Zhiran nodded: "The stones in the Devil City are strange, there are countless holes and gaps, and the underground lake is connected to the ground, which is also very understandable." β
When the three of them came here, they easily figured out the problem of the water flowing back and forth in the channel.
At this time, there was a shadowy shaking on the surface of the lake on the opposite shore, but because of the turbulence of the underground lake, it was not clear at all.
Moreover, it is dozens of meters away from the water and more than 100 meters from the opposite side, even if the lake is stable, it is still not clear to see.
"Go up and have a look, be careful. Yuan Qingta said. Now that you are here, you must go up and have a look.
Yuan Qingta wanted to swim up, and Jiang Liran followed.
Hua Jitian stopped and said, "Wait, I'll take a look." β
Jiang Zhiran disdained: "What to pretend, you can't see it here at all." β
"There are a lot of red-tailed sand scorpions. But the scorpion leader was not seen. β
"Can you see it?" Yuan Qingta didn't despise Hua Jitian as much as Jiang Liran. Yuan Qingta knew that although Hua Jitian was lazy and speechless, he could always do unexpected things.
"Yes. Hua Jitian continued to look up.
"Blow, blow, blow. Jiang Zhiran was stunned by Hua Jitian, and he was also shocked in his heart, he also remembered that in the secret realm, Hua Jitian's eyesight seemed to be very strong.
"I don't have the ears of a wolf and the nose of a dog, but I have the eyes of an eagle. Hua Ji innocently continued to blow.
He withdrew his gaze and closed his clairvoyance at the same time.
During the day, he had already used the clairvoyant eye for three minutes, and when he dived, at the bottom of the lake and in the passage, it took another three minutes.
Now there are only about three minutes left, and it is necessary to use it sparingly.
At critical moments, the claireye and its carrying can be life-saving and very important.
Yuan Qingta pondered for a moment and said, "Sand scorpions can't enter the water, let's go up and take a look, there shouldn't be any danger?"
Hua Jitian nodded, the hard shell of the sand scorpion will be quickly softened in the water, and the poison on the tail will also be greatly diluted by the water, which is also the reason why the sand scorpion is afraid of water.
The three of them began to float up from this small platform.
Soon after they ascended, a long, round thing burst out of the hole from which they had come out. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
