Chapter 119: Before the Wind Barrier
Several people looked at the messy lines drawn by Zhou Yuanhang, and couldn't see what Li Hao meant by letting him do this, looking at everyone's unknown appearance, Li Hao picked up the paper, looked up at the front for a while, looked down at the paper in his hand for a while, and said with a smile after a while: "Okay, that's the case." β
Luo Daxi asked eagerly: "What kind of ghost is it, what is it?" β
Li Hao pointed to the open space in front of him and said to everyone: "You look carefully, if you look carefully, you will see if there is anything special about the stones on the ground." β
Everyone didn't see anything wrong after watching it for a long time, Luo Daxi was really anxious, and urged: "Just say it quickly, don't sell it." β
Li Hao said: "Okay, look at the stones rolling down from the hillside. After the stone hits the ground, it is combed out by the wind, forming traces of wind blowing on the ground, which is a good indication of the direction of the wind, just like these lines. β
Several people looked at the stones on the ground carefully according to Li Hao's statement, and sure enough, they were not messy on the surface, but as if they were deliberately arranged into stone rows one by one, like the sand in the stream, and the traces of the sand being washed out by the water after the water flowed.
Li Hao continued: "The wind does not sweep through here, but each has its own route, like the flow of water washed out of a pipe, it is guided out from the other side, and we can avoid the wind as long as we follow the prompts of the stones on the ground." β
Qiangzi said: "This is also amazing, nature is really magical, which is equivalent to making a natural protective barrier for the treasures of predecessors." β
Li Hao nodded and said: "That's right, before Chi Tianpeng said that several of his students died in a sandstorm, but this place is surrounded by mountains, how can there be sandy weather, even if there is, they will not die here." So I think a few people died under the barrier of this gale. With such a strong wind, a person will be easily blown away, just look at those stones, unless it is more than six or seven hundred catties to be safe and sound. β
Zhou Yuanhang stared at the flat ground in front of him for a while and said: "It is true that the huge rock wind in front of it cannot be blown away, but you can see that its windy side is extremely weathered, and it will be shattered in another hundred and eighty years." As long as we follow the route with gravel, it should be fine. β
Luo Daxi stepped out when he heard this, and said, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go." After speaking, he was about to enter the wind barrier, but was dragged by Li Hao.
Li Hao grabbed Luo Daxi and said, "Wait a minute, look at those stones on the hillside." Don't you think it's weird? β
Luo Daxi looked up and said, "What's strange, isn't it just that people are painted, and some of them are carved into human beings?" By the way, they are all really bald, and they are really like the poor country you said. β
Li Hao shook his head. said to Zhou Yuanhang: "Fatty, do you feel that something is wrong?" Zhou Yuanhang looked at it carefully. "There's nothing wrong with that," he said. Except that the baldness made me feel uncomfortable after losing my hair recently, it didn't seem to be anything. Oh no, it's not right, you see, the contact between such a large rock and the hillside is only a few square meters inside. How could it still stand there under such a mountain and a strong wind? Unlessβ"
Li Hao hurriedly asked: "Yes, I always feel that something is wrong, that's why, how can such a small faΓ§ade still stand on it for thousands of years?" Unless it's what? β
Zhou Yuanhang explained: "There is a kind of stone called wind moving stone. It has been found in many countries, some are on the cliffs, and there are dozens of tons of weight, but the contact surface with the ground slope is the size of a palm, and the wind is shaking, but no matter what, it will not fall. There have been many earthquakes in some places where the wind moved rocks, and many mountains have collapsed, but the wind rocks can still not move in place, which can not be explained by science until now. Could it be that all these stones belong to the wind-moving stones? β
Qiangzi also said: "I've heard of the wind stone, but I have never heard of so many wind stones appearing in one place at the same time, I believe that these stones are here for thousands of years, it shouldn't fall when we pass by, right?" β
Li Hao also nodded after hearing this: "It looks like the sword of Starmok, it's really worrying to hang like this, let's go, I'll go ahead, you follow me." Daxi is optimistic about the little wolf, don't let it run around! β
Qiangzi said again: "Wait, Li Hao, you see that the lines drawn on this map seem to be a little different from the wind marks of the stones on the ground. Li Hao nodded and said: "It's okay, I think there will definitely be changes in the past 20 years, plus the wind power in different seasons is also somewhat different, let's be careful, it seems that there are still a lot of wind whirlpools in it, and they are still moving, so we must follow closely." β
Speaking of this, Li Hao tightened his clothes and backpack, looked at the other people and said, "How is it?" Ready to get started? β
"Alright, OK!"
"Go, go!" After Li Hao finished speaking, he walked in front, and after walking forward for more than ten meters, he felt a strong wind blowing, although he did not have a direct contact with the wind, but the air around him was not less than eight or nine winds, and he still had to be extra careful when walking.
You can still see clearly when you look at the stone traces on the ground from a distance, but once you enter this wind barrier, you can only take care of what is in front of you, and there is no way to see the whole situation clearly.
Everyone is torn by the wind, one can accidentally fall on the wind duct and be blown away, every big step takes a lot of effort, the rapid wind makes it a little difficult for people to breathe in it, you can't help but have to open your mouth and assist in inhaling, sometimes the whole body of the person who meets the headwind is inclined forward, and several people are more than 100 catties, especially Zhou Yuanhang's weight of 200 catties shows his advantages in this, just like a pillar to walk steadily, even if you don't go to the air duct, It is estimated that the surrounding wind can blow away forty or fifty catties of things.
After passing through this fifty or sixty meters wide wind barrier, the force pulled by the wind on the body disappeared immediately, everyone sat on the ground, looked at the flat ground behind them, if they really broke in without knowing it, they would be torn apart by this invisible wind barrier, this short width of dozens of meters everyone walked for nearly an hour, and they were cautious along the way, for fear that they would be swept into the wind barrier by stepping on the wrong step.
After taking a few breaths to stabilize his mind, Li Hao looked at everyone and said: "How about it, go on, go up and see those stone statues, the rest is to uncover the mystery, the place should be here, but Chi Tianpeng doesn't know where the entrance to the treasure is?" β
Luo Daxi immediately took the lead to climb up the mountain, his climbing advantages have been fully exerted here, the mountain is steep, there are broken small rocks everywhere, the ground is not easy to focus, the stones under the feet will slide and fall at any time, if you don't do well, you will have to roll down the hill with one foot, but Daxi can really be said to be walking on the ground in such a mountain, easily leaving others behind, he first came to the first stone man, stopped to check it up, and waited for the people behind him by the way.
The second one to arrive was Qiangzi, Li Hao arrived after Zhou Yuanhang, he was worried that Zhou Yuanhang would fall into the air, and he would follow him all the way to protect him. After arriving at the stone statue, Li Hao took a closer look.
This boulder is more than a person high, it is estimated to weigh seven or eight tons, I don't know what is used to draw a portrait of a person, the face is a middle-aged man, holding a scimitar in his hand, the style of this knife is not the Central Plains Pu knife or sword, but the slender scimitar of the nomadic people, suitable for sprinting and chopping on horseback. The most obvious feature is baldness, smiling at the flat ground under his nose.
Several people observed several other stone figures, only one of which was carved from the whole stone, with a cylindrical body, hands on the chest as if praying, a high nose, deep-set eye sockets, and bald hair, all of which indicate that the owner of the stone statue was not from the Central Plains, a bit like the West Asian or current Uyghurs.
"You see, these statues have common features! The color of the stone is black, obviously different from the stone quality on this mountain, fat man, you come and see, do you know what the reason is? β
Li Hao said.
Zhou Yuanhang heard Li Hao calling him, stood up and looked at the material of the stones, picked up the ordinary stones on the mountain and compared them, and said: "It is difficult to judge with the naked eye, it is estimated that it is related to the legend that there are a large number of meteorites here, it may be that the local people use meteorites to make stone statues, or it may be that the stones contain more iron elements, so the surface only turns black after oxidation, but these stones are definitely not on this mountain, they are transported from other places." β
Li Hao said: "That's right, legend has it that there are meteorites here, and there is also a local stone with a very high iron content of diorite stones, but this is not the point, you look carefully at the five stone figures, they all have a feature in addition to color." β
"All eyes are looking in one direction." Hadron said, Li Hao smiled and nodded, Luo Daxi hurriedly stood up and went to the stone statue, looked in the direction that the stone statue's eyes were staring at, and after looking at three, he found that it was really the same as what Hadron said.
Luo Daxi said: "What's strange about this, maybe the person in command was standing below when the stone statue was placed, that's why it's like this, I'm strange that such a heavy stone, if it's really like you said it was transported from other places, how did they get here?" Can you still stand here without being blown down the mountain? β
Without waiting for Li Hao to answer this question, Zhou Yuanhang stretched out his hand and took out the compass, put it in the palm of his hand, stretched it out in front of everyone's eyes, and said: "I found out at the bottom of the mountain just now, there is a magnetic field here, the magnetic force is very large, which interferes with the compass, and it is likely that it is attracted by the magnetic force, and these iron-rich stones can stand here for thousands of years."
