Chapter 352: Underground Lakes and Strange Shadows
Walking down from the fork, the road was relatively smooth, and there were no strange things or things, even the giant rats that I had often encountered before, and I didn't encounter any here, but the more this happened, the more Bai Yujing felt that something was wrong, this road was not quite like it was opened up in the Ming Dynasty, and it was more like a passage left before a more ancient era.
After walking all the way for two hours, the two of them gradually went deeper into the ground, except for the fact that the searchlight was out of power and stopped for a while to replace the battery, there was nothing unsmooth, but when they came here, Bai Yujing gradually found some signs that were not quite the same as the previous release.
Stone statues began to appear here, and the water gathered here to form a river, and these stone statues were placed on both sides of the river, each in a humanoid posture of prostration, as if to welcome something into the place.
The whole cave also became wider, stretching towards the depths, watching the river swing towards the front, Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun walked along the river on the bank, until they reached the end of the road, Bai Yujing saw the sound of water in front of him, as if deafening.
Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun glanced at each other, their eyes showed joy, to be able to hear such a huge sound of water, the front should not be too far from the dark river, Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun can be regarded as arriving at the first destination.
But here, Bai Yujing found more obvious ancient ruins, next to the river, a huge stone tablet was erected, and the humanoid stone statues that appeared on both sides of the river also became more numerous, under the searchlights of Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun, it looked extremely weird.
Bai Yujing checked the stone statues, they were just ordinary stone statues, but the materials for casting these stone statues were transported from above, and the stone materials in the ground were different, the shape of the stone statues was very simple, it was said to be a human shape, but it could only be seen that it was the shadow of a person, and the shape was very abstract, full of simple charm.
Zhou Jun also touched the stone statue and said: "I have seen a lot of cultural relics before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in the museum, and many of their shapes are similar to this style, which is a little different from the culture of the servants!"
Bai Yujing nodded: "This place should have nothing to do with Wang Quanyi and them, at a glance, you can know that it is not something left by the Ming Dynasty, this may be the main road, from here, it is the right way to enter the tomb of the king of Yu, and this place is also left by the king of the Zhou Dynasty!"
Zhou Jun pointed to the stone tablet at the turn of the river in front of him, and the flashlight shone on it, and the words on it could be seen: "There are words on it, what is written on it?"
Bai Yujing followed Zhou Jun and looked over, the stele is very tall, it looks magnificent, it is more than ten meters high, it is not easy for this thing to be transported in, and according to Bai Yujing and their way in, such a large size of the stone, unless it is mined on the spot, otherwise it does not have the conditions to be transported in at all: "As soon as I look at this stele, I know that my previous guess is correct, during the period of the Marquis Kingdom, there must be another passage here, which can go directly to the depths of the earth, but then for some reason this passage was destroyed." ”
The two people were close to the stele, in the dark, the searchlight formed a circular circle of light and shone on the stele, Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun both showed an upward angle to look up at the stele, Bai Yujing looked at the words on the stele, and felt very familiar, it was the words used by the ancient gods seen in Shennongjia before, and it was also the language used by the Kui clan.
"Tomb of the Servant King!"
"Death to the trespasser!"
Bai Yujing looked over from the left, and read it out silently, four words on the left and right were neatly arranged in two lines, the blood-red characters were chiseled out by unknown means, leaving color on the stone, and the red font seeped out like blood, as if with the meaning of a little flow, and each word dragged down a long blood stain.
Zhou Jun also felt a little shocked, but Bai Yujing didn't care: "Pretend to be a ghost, who to scare?"
Bai Yujing didn't pay any more attention to the stele, but looked at the back: "There is nothing wrong with this stele and the stone statue, I have checked it, at least these ancients did not make ghosts on it, it was purely used to scare people and create a strange atmosphere, but the trespasser said on this stele is dead, this sentence is definitely not simple, it is not necessarily a cannon, maybe there is really any danger in front." ”
Zhou Jun nodded: "Let's be careful." ”
Bai Yujing also suddenly remembered at this time, after Liu Quanyi dug out this main passage, he suddenly turned around and dug down from another road, this road seemed to have gone to the end, what was the reason that caused Liu Quanyi to give up moving forward from here, and chose a more troublesome and laborious method, there is only one possibility, there is a danger here that they can't fight at all.
When the water vapor is heavier here, the water flow under the feet converges towards the front, Bai Yujing looks ahead, and sees that there is an important water flow center in front of him, a large number of small tributaries and water veins that infiltrate down from above, converge here, forming an important water flow transfer hub.
The huge water flow converged into a lake here, Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun could still see that there were small silver-white fish swimming in this water, Bai Yujing grabbed one and looked at it, and found that this fish had no eyes, and he didn't know what the name was.
The huge cave was filled with water vapor, and the lake could only see the vague boundary at a glance from one end to the other, but Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun were not concerned about this, but where did the deafening sound of water come from?
Sure enough, as Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun walked a little ahead, they found that this cave was a corner, and when they went to the front, they saw that the cave had come to an end, revealing a huge hole dozens of meters high, and the water flowed down from here, forming a huge waterfall.
Bai Yujing's searchlight looked ahead, Bai Yujing saw such a huge flow of water and waterfall, and knew that he and the others should have found their destination, and below this waterfall should be the dark river that Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun wanted to find.
"Let's go over and have a look!"
When I got here, the huge lake was all over the cave, and the water in front of it was turbulent, and there was no place to settle down, and it was impossible to go into the water, the lake was okay, close to the waterfall, and the turbulent water was enough to wash Bai Yujing and a few of them down.
Bai Yujing opened the silver box: "I'll put the drone over to take a look, see how high this waterfall is, how deep the water below is, and whether there is any danger, if it's safe, we'll go down from this waterfall." ”
Bai Yujing thought that if there was any danger, it should be under the waterfall, blocking this exit, Bai Yujing decided to check it and see the situation.
When Bai Yujing was fiddling with the drone, the light from the searchlights of Zhou Jun and him had already attracted the attention of a certain existence in the lake, the surging lake surface and the turbulent water, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the bottom of the lake, and more than a dozen scarlet eyes had already stared at Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun.
