Chapter 117: Bronze Chains

The scrivener box has also lost its previous calmness, the ancestors of each region have their own ancient culture and superb wisdom, compared to the megalithic buildings of Savage Mountain, the ancestors here have a unique flavor in creativity. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info He asked the little monkey to climb a relatively tall stone sculpture, and he might be able to spot the clue from a high vantage point.

The baby monkey climbs to the top of an elephant sculpture, and in fact there are the most elephant figures among the many stone sculptures, one can be seen almost every other section. The little monkey raised his eyes and immediately had an intuitive judgment: they were now in the center of the stone carving group, and the number of stone carvings was not as many as imagined, only thirty or fifty, some large and some small. The stone carvings are placed in no order, and they are scattered in a radius of tens of meters.

The scrivener believes that the problem lies in the four words "messy", which seems to be in no order, but in fact the order is very rigorous. The distances and positions between the statues are very cleverly arranged, making it easy to be visually distorted. The size of the statue is also very particular, sometimes the small ones set off the big ones, and sometimes the big ones cover the small ones. Looking at the same place from different locations will produce different visual effects.

"Old generation, can we rest for a while, I'm tired." Gong Daniu said. Lao Gong is the best of the five, and he has almost never shouted tired since joining the army, and today is the first time. He shouted tired, as if to remind others, and others also felt very tired, their limbs were limp, and they wanted to sit down and rest.

The scrivener didn't feel right, and he was also very tired, but this kind of tiredness was different from the kind of tiredness after a lot of effort, and the strength in his body seemed to be taken away for no reason. "There's something wrong with this statue, we have to get out of here." He said.

"Question, what question?" Gong Daniu was puzzled.

"It's not clear yet. But it always feels weird. Are you tired from getting close to the statue? The scrivener asked.

The others carefully recalled, and sure enough, that was the case. But is it true that a stone has such a great magical power?

Five people walked across the stone statues with the attitude of "I would rather believe what I have, not what I don't". Two bodies were found at the foot of a large stone elephant. From the uniform, you can see at a glance that it is exactly the same as the clothes of the six American soldiers who forced landing.

"Rescue a fart, it's not all dead." Gong Da Niu complained directly.

Kong Zhaoqiang couldn't figure it out, since the American GIs had made a forced landing, how good it was to wait for rescue on the spot, why did they run so far.

The scrivener squatted down to take a closer look, the American GI had not been dead for a long time, and in addition, it was relatively shady here, and the degree of decomposition of the corpse was not very serious. He turned the body over and found no obvious external injuries, not killed by the enemy. "They're tired to death." Scrivener to make a judgment.

"How so?" Kong Zhaoqiang asked as he rummaged through the corpse, trying to find something valuable. He pulled out a fountain pen, which was stained with sticky corpse fluid, and he hesitated for a moment before throwing it away.

"Because the facial expression of the deceased was calm, as if he was asleep. It was supposed to die in sleep. The scrivener box explained, he saw that Kong Zhaoqiang was absent-minded, and did not say anything more.

Lao Kong turned out a signal flare and a ball of rope, and felt that it was not worth much, so he simply threw it away.

The scrivener confirmed the previous judgment, it was not so simple for the American soldiers to make a forced landing in the sinkhole, and there must be an ulterior secret. Curiosity drove him to wade through this muddy water and uncover the secrets of the sinkhole! He ordered everyone not to delay, to keep going, and to pass through the stone statues.

Everyone cheered up and continued to move on, and the fatigue was worse than before, but no one dared to stop, and it would be worthless if they were really "exhausted" like American soldiers.

After a short walk through the stone statues, you will reach the westernmost part of the sinkhole, and overhead you will be a towering mountain peak, which hides the sun tightly. A huge crack stretched across the horizon, and it was like the end of the sinkhole.

The five of them stared at the crack in a daze, as if the sinkhole had been slashed by a god's giant axe, and an extremely wide gap appeared out of thin air. The crack is also too big, as if there is a sinkhole in the sinkhole, and the width is not more than ten zhang. It stretches out in an arc to both sides, and you can't see how far it is.

What is magical? Here it is. Who else but a man of God could make such a majestic and eccentric place. The five people were shocked, and the little monkey was the first to walk to the edge of the crack and look down, but the black hole below couldn't see to the end, and he didn't know how deep it was. Everyone was exhausted and sat on the edge of the crack in a daze. Is this what the harvest is called? It's not in line with the task to be performed.

Lu Shuting noticed that there were vague footprints along the edge of the crack, extending all the way forward. Someone must have been here before, and he got up and followed the footprints, spotting the situation behind a large tree. Two large rivets were stuck diagonally into the ground, each with a chain that stretched to the deepest part of the crack. He looked down, and there was no bottom in sight, and the chains could not see the head.

"There's a situation here." Lu Shuting greeted everyone.

The others hurried over and stared at the long chains in a daze. The bronze chains are strong and strong, and the surface is covered with a thick layer of patina, revealing a strong sense of vicissitudes. The long chains stretched to the deepest part of the rift.

The crowd sighed again that what a huge project this was, and how much copper was needed alone. If it was built together with the stone statues, the ancestors here are also amazing! Of course, this is just speculation, perhaps the product of two different eras.

How long the chains have existed, no one dares to draw conclusions, and they are covered with thick green embroidery, which may not be formed in decades or hundreds of years. It is estimated that it is older than the stone statues. The scrivener and the others did not know the value of the bronze, and if they knew that a small bronze vessel would be worth a fortune fifty years later, they did not know what their expression would be when they saw the two bronze chains.

"I'm going down to see, and you're going down with me alone." The scrivener said.

All four of them had to go, and finally the scrivener chose Lu Shuting. The little monkey and Gong Da Niu were both injured and were not suitable to go down, so Kong Zhaoqiang stayed behind to take care of them. Besides, it is impossible to leave no one on it, and once it is occupied by the enemy, no one will want to come up. The scrivener made an agreement to the people above, no matter what happens below, don't go down, the position above can't be lost.

The two of them prepared their simple equipment and began to climb down the chains. The chains are thicker than a goose egg, covered with green embroidery, and the green scum falls off when you touch it. The chains are interlocking, and each ring has a large hole in the mouth of the bowl, which provides convenience for the foothold. The two of them grabbed the two chains and walked down cautiously. The light gradually dimmed, and when I went down more than ten meters, it seemed to enter the night. The scrivener looked down, it was bottomless, and I didn't know how deep it was underneath. The rock wall is as flat as a knife cut, and the chains hang so abruptly, sometimes the force on the feet is uneven, the chains tremble, and the slight rumbling sound echoes in the vast space, ethereal and distant, as if from another world.
