Chapter 16: Ghost Land Exploration (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
Feng He was calculating the balance of power between the Southern Group and the Southern Alien Race, and was thinking about the difference between the Alien Race and the Foreign Race, but Shi Sheng and Lu Yu returned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing Shi Sheng's appearance, Feng He couldn't help but be happy, and asked, "Are you going to make trouble like that?" ”
Shi Sheng's answer surprised the people present, he said, "There are indeed ghosts inside!" ”
Fenghe was very puzzled, he was an atheist, even if he stayed in the mountain god cave at night and dreamed of meeting the mountain god, he didn't take it seriously. At this time, he heard Shi Sheng say that there were ghosts inside, how could he believe it.
He was happy and said to the chiefs: "This is good, we will have the help of ghosts in the future, and we will definitely be able to defeat the southern alien race." The chiefs looked at each other.
......
In the blink of an eye, it has been half a month since Fenghe led his troops to the south.
He became familiar with the topography, sophistication and distribution of power in the south as quickly as possible. He also used an ionizer to detect minerals and weather in the places he went.
He knew that the 8,000-year-old development of Middle-earth was centered on the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and then unified in the order of first east, then south, then west, and finally north.
In later generations, the south was called Nanban, the east was called Dongyi, the west was Xidi, and the north was Rong (or Hu).
Literally, it has a lot to do with its historical heritage.
Dongyi is good at iron tools and bows and arrows, so he uses Yi with bow characters. And so on, then Nanban must be related to insects, which not only refer to insects, but also to the "big insects", that is, snake pythons. The West is associated with fire and beasts, originating from the invention of fire by the Suiren clan and the use of fire to expel wild beasts. The Rong in the north is also related to weapons, and it is also related to Dongyi, and the earliest Hu source is from Dongyi and west.
(This article is about the Fuxi era, not the division of the Quartet clan after the Yellow Emperor.) )
Feng He carefully pointed out the alien races in all directions, and reconnoitred the south in detail, his purpose was obviously to prepare for the unification of the world in the later period, but at this time he did not have the ability and conditions to do it.
After collecting data, Feng He turned off the ionizer and took Shi Sheng and the others to explore the ghost land.
Halfway to the road, Shi Sheng pulled Fenghe's hand and said, "Great Chief!" Do you really believe what I say? ”
Fenghe pretended to believe it, nodded without saying a word, and looked at Lu Yu and smiled.
Soon before the other mountains and ghosts, the weather here is abnormal, the wind and the heart has long been aware, maybe the reason why this place is called "ghost" is related to the abnormal weather here. However, this weather anomaly is related to the extinct volcano at the bottom of the mountain.
In other words, there was a slight volcanic activity hundreds of thousands of years ago, but the outbreak was not large, and the orogeny was not strong.
Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the volcanic magma beneath the mountain is still active, but it is about to die.
A small amount of magmatic activity is accompanied by a large amount of gas and a huge amount of heat is emitted, and its vent is three karst caves in the ghost land of Besan Mountain.
These three karst caves happen to form a triangle shape, surrounding the second highest peak in the other mountains, Xiunu Peak. Xiunu Peak is a kilometer high, which can be regarded as a peak in the Middle Earth area.
The thick heat, mixed with the smell of sulfur and phosphorus, gushes out from several canyons of Xiunu Peak with the rapid mountain wind.
Strange to say, when these gases reach the mouth of the canyon and are sprayed outside, the smell becomes lighter, and there is a slight fragrance.
Under the fragrance, there is a black smoke barrier. The canyon is also full of countless insects, snakes, scorpions and other poisonous insects, and there are some highly poisonous plants growing everywhere, and the leaves of the plants will die if they get on people or animals.
And that's not all, the surface of the canyon appears to be hard rock, with a thin surface layer of rock, soft rock powder underneath, and bottomless underground caves further down. These caverns are completely connected to the three fumato-air caverns, and if humans or animals enter them, the chances of survival are almost zero.
Every time someone from the southern clan entered this place, he didn't know why, and before he could figure out the mystery, he was already put down and died. After a few months, the corpses will be eroded by the highly toxic and corrosive liquid to the point that there is no slag left.
When he reached the mouth of one of the canyons, Feng He did not dare to go any further, and he praised: "What a dangerous place! ”
Shi Sheng said with a smile: "When we first came, Lu Yu and I were very frightened, we ventured deeper, and it was the place where we reached the boulder in front of us, and then we walked forward and found that it was not good, so we had to evacuate quickly." ”
Lu Yu continued: "When I left, I scraped some condensed material from rocks and trees, and on the way back, I talked with my brother for a long time and didn't know what it was, but we concluded that there were no ghosts in the canyon. ”
"Oh? Why? Fenghe asked.
Lu Yu said: "We sent the scraped things to a goat that was caught, and the goat fell to the ground and died instantly. ”
"Poisonous?"
"It should be!"
"Sure enough, as I guessed, it seems that some of the mountains under the deep mountains in front of me are still active."
"What do you mean?" Shi Sheng asked puzzled, in their time, the study of volcanoes and earthquakes was still quite superficial, especially the knowledge of volcanoes.
Fenghe whispered: "Actually, there is an erupted volcano down there, which has not erupted for hundreds of thousands of years, but there are still a large amount of poisonous gases and magma that can occasionally erupt from some voids. ”
"Volcano?"
"Earthquake?"
When Shi Sheng and Lu Yu asked, they both looked at Fenghe incredulously, and the clansmen who were farther away behind them didn't know why, and looked at this side worriedly, thinking that they had really found demons and monsters in front of them.
Fenghe looked at the clansmen behind him, lowered his voice and said: "It's the depths under our feet, and some rocks in deep places generate a lot of heat due to violent movement, and then melt the rocks, just like the process I taught you to make iron last time, but the underground activities don't need to burn coal." ”
This is too plain, and it is extremely detailed, Shi Sheng and Lu Yu have never been exposed to this kind of knowledge again, so they can be regarded as a rough idea.
They looked in unison into the depths of the canyon and looked at the abrupt boulder. Kazuya saw the rock, which was erupting with some crimson smoke at the moment.
Feng He said: "That rock looks like a ghost covered with giant armor and hair, which may be the result of a psychological illusion caused by people looking at it from a distance in a special environment, so they are even more afraid to go into the depths to explore.
Shi Sheng also said: "Yes! If you look closely, it is actually a stone, which is caused by people's psychological misdirection. ”
After hearing this, Lu Yu also said: "We are from the next generation, and after the big chief said this, we can also understand the truth, how can human beings at this time see through the mystery of this?" ”
Shi Sheng said again: "Even if I talk to them for three days and three nights, I guess they won't be able to hear the reason." ”
Wind and smile silently, turning on the ionizer to focus on the blurred mountain shadow behind the boulder. After a few seconds, the data analysis is immediately displayed.
The canyon is ten kilometers deep, after reaching Xiunu Peak, there is a fork on the left to lead to the mountain stream on the left side of Xiunu Peak, the main road goes straight and continues to go deep into Xiunu Peak, and reaches the foot of the main body of the peak.
There is also a canyon on the right rear side of Xiunu Peak, which is only three kilometers away, but it leads to a large river to the northeast, and the water of the large river passes through a swamp, where a dead zone is formed.
