Chapter 469: Stone Palace

Continuing to move forward, the restlessness of the qi in the body became more and more obvious. Of course, it won't be chaotic or anything, so it's. It's nothing more than that the speed of the qi surging in the body seems to be relatively fast, and even if it doesn't work, it seems to have some feeling of releasing the qi.

After another 100 meters, it is estimated that we have reached the bottom of the mountain. However, the terrain suddenly changed.

The nine platforms that have been down in a row just now are equivalent to exploring downwards. But now, standing in front of Gao Longzang and the others, there is an upward staircase path, and it has begun to climb upwards again!

This time, the stone steps were longer and surprisingly long, with seventy-two transit platforms.

In other words, Gao Longzang and the others first walked to the height of nine floors underground, and now they have climbed up to the height of seventy-two floors.

Then, the height at which we are now should be as high as the sixty-three story buildings in the valley outside, about one hundred and seventy or eighty meters, which is really scary!

That's a lot of work, it's incredible. If this thing is announced, it may immediately cause a world-class shock, and it is not an exaggeration to be rated as a world-class miracle, right? At least Gao Longzang felt that the Terracotta Warriors of the Qin Emperor, known as the eighth wonder of the world, were not necessarily more amazing than this.

Moreover, the part where Gao Longzang and they came in was located at the bottom of the saddle of the entire mountain range, that is, the shortest part of the mountain range. Although the absolute altitude is still very high, the relative altitude compared to the valley is only about 200 meters.

And now, Gao Longzang and the others have climbed up one hundred and seventy or eighty meters at the height of the valley. Doesn't that mean that the top of your head is almost at the top of the mountain now?

If you break through a few dozen meters higher, I'm afraid you can stand on the top of the mountain.

In addition, there was a little bit of detail that Gao Longzang found interesting--they descended nine platforms, and ascended seventy-two, adding up to exactly eighty-one platforms and eighty-one stone steps.

Eighty-one, which is the number of ninety-nine, means "most" and "extreme" in ancient times.

Forget it, let's not think about that yet. After walking to the top platform, there is a small passage in front of you. Of course, the energy in Gao Longzang's body at this time was also more intense.

Not long after walking along this path, the three of them felt in a trance that there seemed to be some light ahead. Light? The height of this nine-story underground building, and there should be a heavy mountain overhead, where does the light come from?

In order to verify, Gao Longzang turned off the flashlight. As a result, the entire passage instantly darkened, but there was a slight light in front of it, radiating to this side.

There's really light, hell!

The trio then kept the flashlight off, and the further they went, the more light there became. Finally, when they turned a corner, they suddenly felt bright!

There really is light!

Moreover, in front of it turned out to be a huge stone chamber.

No, judging from this vast area, this is no longer a simple stone chamber, it can almost be called a stone hall!

Rectangular, about ten meters wide, about 20 meters long, about seven or eight meters high, a full 300 square meters of "pure indoor area", equivalent to several sets of large units, can no longer be simply said to be "stone room"!

And the most bizarre thing is that there is a high platform directly in front of it, nine steps. There is a huge stone seat placed on it, standing there alone, I don't know how many vicissitudes of spring and autumn have been experienced.

A few steps behind the stone pedestal, there is a stone screen. Other than that, there was nothing else on the ninth-order stone platform, it was empty.

As for the two sides of the nine-step stone platform, there are also two huge stone monuments - and call them tablets. Because, Gao Longzang didn't know what this thing should be called in ancient times. But it's certainly not burying the dead, so it's not necessarily accurate to call it a "monument".

There are many holes in the huge dome, like the sun, moon and stars. Some of the holes have been sealed and are presumably filled by the accumulated wind and sand.

Occasionally, some stone voids can still cast some bright light, which is the source of the faint light in the stone hall. This brightness, about the same as the old 25-watt light bulb, was dim throughout the hall. However, it can make people see things clearly, not to mention that Gao Longzang and others are all high-level practitioners, and their eyesight is much better than ordinary people.

These cavities should have the dual effect of lighting and ventilation. And the top of the hole may lead to some stone crevices on the top of the mountain. Because it is so high, even if someone passes by above, they may not be able to detect the abnormality, and they will only think that it is an ordinary stone crevice.

And these holes are very well designed, and there are all directions. If the sun shifts from outside the mountain, it can also ensure that there are several holes that throw sunlight in. It's dim, but it's always lit.

It is no wonder that the mountain that enters here is the bottom of the saddle-shaped part of this mountain range, which is considered the shortest part. Because the dome of this hall is estimated to be only twenty or thirty meters thick from the top of the mountain, or even thinner, after all, Gao Longzang and they only estimate it with footsteps, not with a ruler.

This thin layer allows the sunlight above to be projected down and maintain a certain amount of light. Of course, the same should be true of moonlight and starlight at night.

Also, don't feel that the light is dim, it's just like a small light bulb. You must know that there are so many lighting and ventilation holes in the dome, about eighty percent of which have been filled with earth and stone. If all of them are opened, then the brightness of the light in this stone hall should not be weaker than the morning and dusk outside, which is very clear.

Gao Longzang looked up and couldn't help but admire: "Good guy, who made this big deal, is it the emperor of ancient times?" ”

The second sister nodded and said, "It should be." Otherwise, how could the common people have mobilized such terrible manpower, material and financial resources. Not to mention the people, even the rich officials and nobles in the world can't do it. It's just that there is no historical record for such a large project, which is strange. ”

"It's normal." Xue Xingyan said, "The history we keep now can be accurate to which dynasty?" Many of the records of the pre-Qin period are vague and full of strange powers, which are not convincing at all. It is said to be history, but in fact it is similar to a legend. ”

Gao Longzang knew that what the dean said was good. It's just that he asked again: "But, this Kunlun Mountain is too remote, right?" It was very difficult for the ancient ancestors to survive in the Central Plains, and how could they settle here on a large scale. ”

Xue Xingyan shook his head: "We are not engaged in historical archaeology, how can we have so much thought about this." There are too many unreasonable things in the world, and this is not something we consider. ”

"It's still godmother who can see it, haha!" The second sister smiled and said, "If it's bad, don't be wordy, hurry up and sit on the throne." Obediently, there is a lot of style of the Ninety-Five. My sister said that this is the breath of a real dragon, and you bastard still don't believe it. ”

"The queen mother and concubine please, hehe." Gao Longzang smiled.

Xue Xingyan continued to be speechless, and was made big by the two juniors. The second sister squinted her peach blossom eyes and said: "Sister, I am the queen, not a concubine, the name must be clear, don't want to be as fancy as your old man!" ”

Xue Xingyan glared at her, but it was actually only because she mentioned Feng Daoren. However, the second sister thought that Xue Xingyan was upset with Xiao Mo, so she immediately grinned: "Okay, Xiao Mo has been the queen for the past two years, and I will be the imperial concubine for a year or two...... Hmph, my goddaughter really has no human rights, and she is eccentric......"

The latter sentence is inaudible, obviously very unconvinced.
