545, cascading stones, sea condensation

After a while, a gust of wind swept a fist-sized stone into the cave, and then Sheng Long also jumped out of the ground. Zi Hao was still in the form of translucent light and shadow, but his aura had obviously weakened a lot. And Sheng Long was also tired enough, lying there panting, and finally felt that the thin air on the plateau made him uncomfortable.

Cheng Tianle frowned and said, "I just asked you to practice and cooperate, why are you so tired?" ”

Sheng Long gasped and said: "Mr. Cheng, we found a treasure of heaven and earth, buried under a very thick layer of gravel, and it took a long time to take out a piece. If it was on the plains, it wouldn't be so tiring, but it's really choking here! ”

Cheng Tianle was angry and said with a smile: "The golden thread rat is the golden thread rat, and he is good at searching for heaven and earth treasures, what kind of good thing is this stone?" ”

Sheng Long: "I'm so tired that I can't breathe, how can I feel it carefully?" It's just that I noticed that its special physical properties are very pure, and it can be refined and integrated with the body and mind, and it is a material that can refine magic weapons. As for what it is and what it can be used for, I have to consult Cheng Zong. ”

Cheng Tianle picked up the stone and looked at it for a long time, and then said: "This is a stacked stone, and this stacked stone condenses the essence of physical properties, and it is indeed a material for creating a certain magic weapon." ”

Sheng Long asked: "There are many stones like this in the depths of the earth here, but there are few that can be called heavenly treasures with pure physical properties, what is a cascading stone, and what is its use?" ”

Cheng Tianle: "A few years ago, when Wu Jiaming took me to visit the handicraft market, I saw this kind of thing. It is a fossil formed by the depositation of single-celled algae on the ocean floor in ancient times hundreds of millions of years ago. A small piece contains hundreds of millions of living beings back then, with the breath of the origin of life, as well as traces of historical changes. We stand on the highest place in the world, but it was deep under the sea. As for the physical properties of this stone, if it is refined into a magic weapon, it will have the effect of calming the nerves and regulating qi. ”

Zi Hao: "This is a support type of magic weapon, and it can't be used to fight?" ”

Cheng Tianle: "Not all Dharma weapons are used to fight, many of them are used to help practice, or have other wonderful uses. This thing is made into a magic weapon, which can cure the decay of the spirit. Of course. If you must use it to fight, as long as you have magical means, you can also use some of its magic spells, and the use of weapons also lies in people. "When talking. He couldn't help but think of the wordless Tianshu tablet he saw in the Liaodong Mountains, and now this stacked stone actually carried the breath of that whole giant monument.

Zi Hao: "The place we just drilled into, there should still be deep underground, do you want to look for it again?" ”

Cheng Tianle shook his head and said: "Although the treasures of heaven and earth are good, don't be blindly greedy, don't forget the purpose of our trip." You have to stay at the top of your game, hurry up and regain your spirit, and if you find those stones at this moment, we will carry them into the deep Himalayas and then carry them out. Aren't you picking up Regin anymore? Let's talk about it later. This piece is kept as a souvenir. ”

When night fell, they set out again. Zi Hao looked back at this place and was reluctant to give up, and there were treasures deep underground, but unfortunately he couldn't bring more. Places like this are hard to get to, and there are still some discoveries to be found by passing by. But he only took a piece and left, although there was a reason for it, but it was a pity to think about it.

Cheng Tianle didn't have the slightest regret, he only took this piece of stacked stone and continued on the road. It's hard to find. But when he walked to this kind of place with Sheng Long, it was normal to be able to find something. If he covets, how much will he take? The fuller the back pack, the more troublesome it is, and the road ahead will become more and more difficult.

I hurried by night, rested by day, and walked for three more days. Although it was the height of summer, snow and ice gradually appeared under their feet, and the terrain they reached was getting higher and higher. The snow-covered plateau is very dangerous, with various crevasses and faults under the ice, and not only are the peaks steep and almost unfooted, but they are also very slippery, and if you are not careful, you may fall into an inexplicable abyss.

If it weren't for the keen sense of the mind that could detect the hidden dangers, you would never be able to break through here. Ahead was Zi Hao, who transformed into a formless spirit to sense the invisible crevasses under the ice and snow, and searched for the easiest path in the mountains.

Sheng Long poked his head out of his cuffs, looked at the snow-capped mountains in front of him and said, "Mr. Cheng, are we going to turn over?" I'm afraid it's harder than climbing Mount Everest with bare hands! ”

Cheng Tianle shook his head and said: "We don't have to climb over the mountains, there is a naturally formed passage in front of us, and the altitude of the destination is not too high, surrounded by mountains." ”

Sheng Long: "There's a passage?" It's full of snow-capped mountains, so why didn't I see the passage? ”

Cheng Tianle: "Find a place to rest later, you can see after dawn." ”

As they spoke, they had climbed over a cliff and found a crack in the rock formations to sit down and rest. The morning light in the snowy mountains gradually rose, and Zi Hao suddenly exclaimed: "Eagle, I saw the eagle flying!" There's a passage over there! ”

Himala

Mount Yashan stretches for 5,000 miles, but it is not an elongated mountain range, with many residual veins and branch veins crisscrossing it. This section of the road that Cheng Tianle walked is the highest place on the earth, with dense peaks and widest points of 800 miles. If viewed from the air, it is cut into a grid of snow-capped peaks and staggered ridges, and between the white snow-capped mountains are a basin with a huge drop. These basins have been untouched and isolated since ancient times.

Cheng Tianle currently stands at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, flanked by snow-covered peaks, in front of a basin, the terrain extends downward, the lowest point is about 4,000 meters above sea level, at different heights gradually grow moss, short grass close to the ground, sparse shrubs, until sparse trees. Under the snowy peaks is the grassland, and under the grassland is a primeval jungle that is not very lush.

Vegetation growth requires not only the right temperature, but also a certain amount of precipitation, which is not warm and humid, but enough for the cold-tolerant and drought-tolerant plants on the plateau to grow. In addition to the snow water irrigated by the high mountains, there is also a slight warm and humid air flow blowing from the opposite side of this plateau basin within a radius of tens of miles, forming a swirling wind between the snow peaks. Although the meaning of warmth and humidity is faint, Cheng Tianle can keenly perceive it.

Looking through this basin, you can see the middle section of the snow-capped mountains on the opposite side, but there is a neat gap, as if it was split by a giant axe, forming a natural passage to another plateau basin, and the slightly warm and humid wind blows from there. Yu Daoyang explained this passage to Cheng Tianle's thoughts, which is the only way to take Luoleijin, starting from the base camp of Mount Everest, walking through the mountains and mountains for four nights, Cheng Tianle finally saw this landmark.

Where there is vegetation and jungle, there are animal activities, and eagles will also fly here in search of prey, and Cheng Tianle saw more than one eagle flying in the air. Sheng Long exclaimed: "In the highest place in the world, surrounded by lifeless snow-capped mountains, there is such an oasis, it is like a ...... Xanadu? He couldn't find a more suitable adjective for a while, and only remembered the allusion of paradise, even though there were no peach trees and no peach blossoms.

Cheng Tianle nodded and said: "I don't know how many years it has been isolated from the world here, and the animals and plants are probably a little different from other places, and there may even be extinct things in the outside world." More than 500 years ago, people came here and found a lot of strange flowers and plants, birds and monsters that are not found elsewhere, so we should be careful. Take a break and walk through this basin and that passage at night. ”

Instead of entering the jungle in the middle of the basin that night, they bypassed the grassy slopes on the edge. Even at night, there was animal activity, and they found several strange species of spiders, living in caves among the rubble, hunting in nets among the low grass, and many insects and a large lizard.

Lizards are mostly found in the tropics, but also in the cold zone, and the mountain-loving iguanas living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are generally only a dozen centimeters long. But the lizard that Cheng Tianle saw here resembled a Xishan iguana, but it was more than two feet long, and it was very agile in the rocks, infesting grassy slopes and the edges of trees. Cheng Tianle is obviously an "alien species", although he restrained his spirit and walked silently, but his appearance still alarmed many small animals such as spiders nearby, and the spiders avoided one after another, making a slight "rustling" sound.

They reached the passage after midnight, and the moonlight on the plateau was particularly bright, casting a clear shadow on the mountain. Walking into that passage, Cheng Tianle felt a deep shock, and even the Yuan Shen seemed to be touched. The bottom of the passage is flat enough for several people to walk in parallel, and the entrance will be near the snow line, flanked by steep sloping cliffs in a huge V-shape with a drop of more than a kilometer.

Cheng Tianle originally thought that it was a naturally formed geological fault, but the further he went, the more he felt that something was wrong. Divine consciousness swept over the cliffs on both sides, and could also find traces of many geological faults, but they were not in one direction. But the passage is straight, as if it has been cut by an incredible force, and it is done in one go.

If this passage is not formed naturally but is split by man, then what kind of people can do it? This is simply beyond Cheng Tianle's imagination, it is a miracle! I think when Yu Daoyang walked through here, I'm afraid he also had the same feelings, right?

Cheng Tianle couldn't help but think of the huge Tara relief he saw on the cliff of the snow-capped mountain last year, which was also an incredible artificial trace, but he saw it with his own eyes. The more places he passes through in this world, the more this world shocks him, and some are beyond his understanding, so observe and feel it well.

It is not unreasonable to feel that this passage was split by a giant axe, because its base is not horizontal, but takes on an arc that extends upwards like an axe blade. As we walked, the terrain grew higher, and the gravel under our feet was covered with ice and snow again, and the stone walls on both sides did not even have a cave or crevasse where we could hide. When the sky is light, I look up and see a crystal world ahead.
