183. Two karst caves

PS: Thank you for the tip.

"It's so beautiful! Get out of the way, get out of the way. Xie Wan'er pushed Jiang Yiming away and said to the colorful stone stalactite forest.

Under the illumination of the lights, the stalactites hanging from the top of the eleven or twelve meters shimmer in various colors of red, orange, blue and green, like a rainbow hanging in the sky close to it, which is beautiful.

Seeing the colorful stalactites, Jiang Yiming was also taken aback. Before coming down, he checked the information and knew that most of the stalactites in the cave were yellowish-white, which looked inconspicuous and even a little disgusting, because the calcium carbonate mixed with the soil was this color.

In order to attract tourists, the general scenic spot arranges colorful lanterns in the cave, which will make the cave look good. The natural colorful karst cave in front of him is really rare and rare, and if the officials know about it, I am afraid that it will be closed and developed into a scenic spot immediately.

Jiang Yiming is not like Xie Wan'er and Cui Ziyu, two women, who are obsessed with colorful and shiny stalactites. He walked over to the probe robot with his pickaxe in hand and took it off the stalagmite, but it was no longer needed.

He remembered seeing the video on his tablet, as if there was room behind the stalactites on this side, and pressed his eyes to a slit that could fit an egg.

The light from the headlamp on the helmet passed through the gap and illuminated a stalactite more than ten meters away, shining with colorful light.

"There's a lot more underground space in the back."

Jiang Yiming excitedly held the pickaxe and knocked a few times on the wall-like stalactite, knocking off the tip of some candle-thick stalactites. Fortunately, these calcium carbonate-based stones are not hard, but rather brittle, and it is not very difficult to break them.

The broken stalactites, illuminated by the light, showed a fragmented and colorful light, like a pile of gemstones of different colors.

"What are you doing, you actually know how to destroy such beautiful stalactites, what an artless nerd."

Xie Wan'er didn't know when she came behind Jiang Yiming, and said while condemning, her face was full of pity. After saying that, he picked up a thumb-thick bayonet-like stone from the ground and put it on his hand to look back and forth.

"Cui Ziyu, did you say? He's going to wreak havoc, and you've dug a crack in the original wall-like stone layer like this, which is really a terrible thing. ”

Xie Wan'er is very energetic about Jiang Yiming's criticism, and she has the meaning of holding on.

Cui Ziyu nodded, playing the role of an alliance perfectly.

Jiang Yiming waved the pickaxe and knocked down a few stalactites, and he didn't relent: "Don't make trouble, you see that there is still space behind here, and you have to open a road to go over before you can pass." If you are crooked, don't follow me to a new place. ”

"Oh, there's room in the back?" Xie Wan'er stretched her neck and looked back through the gap, there was really a dark space behind this row of stalactites. Except where the lights hit, it was pitch black.

No one knows why stalactites hanging from the top of the cave are like a wall, dividing a complete space into two parts, perhaps only thanks to the creation of heaven and earth.

Jiang Yiming: The area of the cave where the three of them are now is about three hundred square meters, and it looks wide, but in fact, they can walk from one side to the other by walking ten or twenty steps, and the range of movement is not large.

Originally, he rushed into the underground to explore, but except for the dark and narrow atmosphere in the passage before, there was no stimulation that excited him, and he was slightly disappointed.

Maybe there was something new behind that surprised him, and this was an important reason why he knocked on the stalactite layer.

Xie Wan'er and Cui Ziyu didn't go up to help break the stalactite layer, and just turned around in the karst cave of more than 300 square meters here.

"Where is the best looking stone? It's nice green here, and it looks like a piece of jadeite. If I really had a jade the size of a bucket, then I would be a billionaire, and I wouldn't have to ask someone to buy a piece of clothing. ”

Xie Wan'er glanced at Jiang Yiming when she spoke, but unfortunately she only saw his backpack shaking, and there was a sound of clattering stones breaking in her ears.

"I think the orange one is good, it looks like a delicious and sweet orange, and it makes my mouth water." Cui Ziyu pointed to a slightly round stone that he liked and said.

Xie Wan'er walked a few steps, came to the soil layer near the outside of the cave, pointed to a dark red thing on the ground that was more than two meters long, and said, "Ziyu, come and take a look, this is Jiang Yiming's pet earthworm that he recently tamed, and it is not like a big one." I asked him several times, but he refused to give me the secret, do you think he doesn't believe me? ”

The fat man probably didn't like the ground covered with a layer of calcium carbonate, so he stopped at the edge of the cave, and more than half of his body was stuck in the soil, revealing a small half of his body.

Cui Ziyu turned his head to look at Jiang Yiming, who was five or six meters away, and found that the pickaxe in his hand had not stopped, and had been beating the stalactite, and he didn't seem to hear Xie Wan'er's words in the distance.

She stopped two meters away from Xie Wan'er, and after a few glances, she said in a slightly trembling voice, "This is the fat head in your mouth?" How dare you touch it with your hands? It's horrible, I think its fat body looks horrible. ”

In the underground cave, except for the range of the headlamp's pillar of light, the rest of the place was pitch black, as if some terrifying monster was lurking. Cui Ziyu's feeling became more and more real after seeing the fat head, and he suddenly felt that his body seemed to be much colder, and it seemed that there was really a huge monster hiding in the surrounding darkness.

"Sister Wan'er, don't you feel that there seems to be something in the darkness around you, quietly watching? Wait for us to rush out and eat us when we are tired? ”

Xie Wan'er dropped her research on the fat head's body and said, "You are too sensitive, there is nothing around, you can see for yourself." ”

With that, she turned her head and let the headlamp on her helmet sweep around the cave without any extra animals.

In fact, Cui Ziyu also knew that this 300-square-meter karst cave had been swept ten or nine times by the three of them walking back and forth, and there should be no demon beasts, but she just didn't feel safe.

With a click, Jiang Yiming knocked out a door more than a meter wide from the stalactite wall, allowing adults to walk in diagonally.

He took several deep breaths, barely trying to calm the excitement, the impulsive thoughts, and the right to enter. ”

"Okay, I've got both sides out, can I go over and see what's going on on the other side? When I think about it, I feel excited. Exploring the unknown is what adventure is. ”

"I don't usually see you running, climbing a mountain or something, it turns out that underground exploration is your true love. It's a unique hobby. Xie Wan'er said.

Jiang Yiming illuminated the dark space in front of him with his headlamp, and saw that there was still ground in front of him, not an abyss, an underground dark river, and let go of some worries. If it is really the latter two cases, then the only way to go home and declare the end of the expedition is over.

Under the bright lamppost, the texture on the ground can be seen clearly at a glance. The main body is a white-yellow ground, and it flashes with colorful light as the light passes, but as soon as it returns to darkness, there is no light at all.

Counting the steps in his heart, Jiang Yiming walked straight to the wall, then turned left and walked straight ninety degrees, and probably calculated that the area of this cave reached more than 10,000 square meters, which was much larger than the previous one.

Not only that, but he also discovered a natural passage, from which a stream of cold wind blew into the cave.
