Chapter 14: The Sealed Land
Chu Bingyan looked at the stone pillar with fixed eyes, her heart was like boiling boiling water, and all the efforts to return to this era were worth it at this moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info she stared at the strange light, shook her head and said: "No, this can't be Kunlun, but this may have something to do with Kunlun." ”
Hearing Chu Bingyan's words, Yang Mingyang had obvious disappointment in his eyes, and he stepped forward again, studying the words on the stone wall without giving up.
Everyone stood silently in place, not daring to disturb, waiting for the final answer from the ancient literature expert.
It was about half an hour or so before Yang Mingyang raised his head from the stone pillar that had been eroded by the wind and rain, his expression was a little confused and puzzled, and his head shook slowly, as if he felt that what he had studied was a little incredible.
"Old Yang, what did you say here?" the anxious Mo Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Yang Mingyang still had an incredulous expression, he slowly retreated a few steps, and then suddenly asked Mo Yuan an irrelevant question: "Do you say that there is really a god in this world?"
Mo Yuan didn't know why, he said: "Lao Yang, we are all engaged in science, how can you say that? Even if I study metaphysical feng shui, but to put it bluntly, it is only because of the changes caused by the magnetic field, far less than the level of ghosts and gods, what do you see on this stone pillar?"
"Hey!" Yang Mingyang let out a long sigh and said, "Although most of the words on this have been eroded by wind and rain and the original content cannot be seen, it is recorded in the small half of the vaguely recognizable text. The battle of the gods caused the heavens to collapse and the earth to crack, the yin and yang reversed, and the god Kunlun disappeared.

"What do you mean?" Mo Yuan still didn't understand.
Chu Bingyan, who understood, glanced at Feng Han, and confirmed in her heart that her group of people had really not found the wrong place.
"It means that this may not be the place where Emperor Yao sacrifices heaven and earth as we think, but where he seals some divine power. Yang Mingyang shook his head as he spoke, and it seemed that he didn't dare to believe these records.
"Divine power, what is divine power? Could it be that the Mixed Yuan Patriarch in Journey to the West said that he traveled to the North Sea in the twilight?" Mo Yuan asked.
"How do I know what this divine power is. Yang Mingyang said angrily.
"Well, anyway, we have a general idea of the contents of this stone pillar, and we must go in and see what is in it. Chu Bingyan looked at the direction of the deep valley and said lightly.
"Yes, yes, go in and see, go in and see. Yang Mingyang was completely aroused, and he didn't feel sore in his waist and legs at this moment.
The main speaker of the team made a decision, and the rest of the team members naturally had no objections, and the whole team cleaned up a little, and began to march towards the unknowable valley ahead.
The group walked for about a few miles, and the road began to get narrower and narrower, until finally it was directly blocked by two stone gates.
"I'll take a look. After Chu Bingyan said this, she came to the stone gate and tentatively stroked it with her hand.
"Miss, I'll come. The driver, Huang Ge, rushed forward and said. Although he was the nominal driver of this trip, his greater responsibility was to protect Chu Bingyan's safety, and at this moment, seeing that Chu Bingyan seemed to want to push open the stone gate blocking the road in this strange deep valley, he was worried that something would happen, so he naturally couldn't let Chu Bingyan do it.
Chu Bingyan was originally going to push the door by herself, but after seeing the unyielding persistence in Huang Ge's eyes, she finally took two steps back and said, "Okay, you come, be careful." ”
Huang Ge nodded, motioned for Chu Bingyan to take a few more steps back, then took a deep breath, put his two hands on the two stone doors, and pushed them away as best he could.
I don't know if it's because it's been too long or for some reason, the two stone doors are not as difficult to open as imagined. With Huang Ge's full strength, there was a grunt from under the door, and the two doors slowly opened.
The door opened, and there was no imaginary hidden weapon behind the door, only two corridors stood quietly, and its remote darkness was bottomless.
"Two roads? Old Mo, let's see if it's a way of life and a way of death. Yang Mingyang frowned.
"How do I know, there are no signs on this road, so how can people judge? "Mo Yuan can't do anything about this situation.
"No matter how much it is, let's choose a way in. Chu Bingyan said, since things have come to this point, she will definitely not give up.
The team chose the corridor on the left, and they first tested the oxygen circulation in the lower corridor with candles, and then used a wolf's tooth torch to illuminate it, and walked slowly.
When the team had advanced less than thirty meters, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the tunnel.
"Did you hear that?" Feng Han hurriedly asked, although he had experienced a month of special training in the army, but he still felt a little hairy in his heart when he walked in this kind of place, and at this moment he suddenly heard a strange noise, and he immediately asked with a high degree of nervousness.
Everyone nodded solemnly, obviously hearing the voice.
"Miss, why don't we go the other way. Huang Ge said that in his heart, naturally Chu Bingyan's safety came first.
Chu Bingyan wasn't sure what monsters were hiding in this place, she was someone who had really experienced the Apocalypse Era, and she understood that the incredible monsters in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" actually existed, and she had a deep understanding of the strange power of those monsters. Hearing Huang Ge's suggestion at this moment, she didn't insist, and after thinking about it, she said, "Okay, let's try another way." ”
Everyone exited along the road, returned to the entrance of the Yongdao, and re-entered the Yongdao on the right. When they had traveled about thirty meters, another low roar came from the depths of the tunnel, just like the one before.
At this moment, everyone's faces changed, and it seemed that the two roads were the same.
Chu Bingyan groaned slightly and said, "Let's go back to the entrance and discuss again." She secretly made up her mind in her heart, this corridor must be entered, but it is not necessary for everyone to go in and take risks, it is best for everyone to settle down outside the corridor first, and wait until the dead of night, and then go in alone to investigate.
The team retreated, and Mo Yuan asked Yang Mingyang, "Old Yang, can you hear the sound of a beast?"
Yang Mingyang shook his head and said, "This corridor is too long, and the sound will change due to refraction during the passage, so I can't hear what kind of beast it is." However, it stands to reason that unless there is a very suitable environment for animals at the other end of the corridor, it is impossible for wild animals to survive. The strange thing is that this road is obviously sloping downward, is there any beast that lives underground?"
Yao Qingpei, who had never spoken, suddenly said: "What's even more strange is why we only heard this sound as soon as we walked into the road about thirty meters. If there really is a beast on the other side of the road, is that distance the perceived distance of the beast?"
"Xiao Yao has a point, this is indeed strange, could it be that the two Yongdao actually converge in one place in the end, but this beast is really good enough, and the accurate grasp of the distance is simply jaw-dropping. Yang Mingyang said.
"And what is the judgment of this thing, does it hear us or smell us?" Huang Ge couldn't help but ask.
"I think it's the same as dogs, it depends on smell, what beast can hear and distinguish so accurately. In order to relax his nervousness, Feng Han also joined in the conversation.
"This is not necessarily, the legendary divine beast under the throne of the Jizo King Bodhisattva is absolutely capable of this. Chu Bingyan said.
"Miss Chu is right, the legendary truth can discern all things in the world through listening, especially the human heart, but that is just a legend after all. Yang Mingyang followed, he turned his head to look at Mo Yuan, who had not spoken, seemed to be a little distracted, and asked, "Old Mo, what are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about what you just said, it seems that I have a little inspiration, but I can't grasp it, this place is indeed a little weird. Mo Yuan's brows furrowed.
"Could it be that Professor Mo thought of your metaphysics again. Yao Qingpei joked.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Mo Yuan's mind, his frowning brows loosened, and he nodded: "Xiao Yao, you really woke up the dreamer with a word, if you say that the setting outside the valley is artificial, it may also be arranged by a master." Do you think these two stone gates and Yongdao statues represent yin and yang?"
"Is it really like what I said before, one yin and one yang, one life and one death?" Yang Mingyang asked rhetorically.
Mo Yuan waved his hand and said: "How can yin and yang be replaced by life and death, the most intrinsic essence of yin and yang is that they are relatively born together, and they have the same end. In this way, it is safest for us to enter one path in a group of three at the moment, because yin and yang pay attention to the way of balance. ”
"Lao Mo, you're not mistaken, in this kind of place, you let us move forward in groups, everyone can take care of each other when they are together, in case something happens after separation, who will be responsible. Yang Mingyang shouted.
"I think what Professor Mo said has some truth, so let's divide into two groups and enter the road at the same time, and if there is nothing abnormal in advancing 30 meters, we will continue to move forward. Regardless of which group finds an anomaly in the corridor, immediately retreat to the entrance and wait for another team, if any team walks out of the corridor, they will wait in the same place first, we will limit it to two hours, if the two groups do not meet by then, they will return here to meet. Chu Bingyan said.
"Miss Chu, I have no problem with this proposal. Mo Yuan took the lead in expressing his position.
Feng Han and Huang Ge naturally had full support for Chu Bingyan's words, and after Yao Qingpei said that he had no objection, only the remaining Yang Mingyang could only agree to everyone's plan.
After seeing that everyone agreed, Chu Bingyan said: "Then we will be divided into two groups, I will be in a group with Feng Han and Huang Ge, and the two professors will be in a group with Sister Yao, so that each group will have two men and one woman, which can also be regarded as a balance of yin and yang." ”
"No, Miss Chu, I have to be in a group with you, and the task assigned above is for me to protect your safety. Yao Qingpei objected.
"Miss's safety, I can protect. Huang Ge said.
"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe in your ability, but Miss Chu is the captain of the entire team, and the order I received is to stay around Miss Chu every inch, I hope you can understand. Yao Qingpei did not back down.
Seeing that things suddenly became an impasse, Chu Bingyan frowned slightly. At the beginning of her trip, there were many obstacles, after all, she was too dazzling in that circle in the past few years, and some things were not up to her Chu family. She knew the purpose of arranging a Yao Qingpei to enter the team above, but she didn't break it.
After Chu Bingyan pondered for a while, she said, "Then according to Sister Yao's meaning, I, Feng Han, and Sister Yao are in a group, and Huang Ge, you are responsible for protecting the safety of the two professors." ”
"Miss!" Huang Ge cried.
Chu Bingyan waved her hand and said, "Just do as I say, you have also seen Sister Yao's strength." She really didn't want to delay it because of the grouping, and Feng Han definitely wanted to be in a group with herself.
"Then please ask Director Yao to protect the safety of the young lady. Huang Ge had no choice but to agree to Chu Bingyan's plan.
The people agreed and immediately divided into two groups and entered the corridor respectively.
