Chapter 46: The Emperor's Township
Everyone sat silently in the boat, looking at each other, and they could see that each other's faces were heavy.
This trip to the ruins, everyone can be said to be well prepared, Zhou Kesheng even boasted in front of Xiao Ling in advance that this trip would not be too dangerous, but no one expected such heavy casualties.
Sun Tao counted the remaining grenade explosives, Xiao Ling glanced at the grenades that were collected together, there were only six left, and in addition, there were only three bundles of explosives, so to speak, they were close to the end of the mountain.
"Xiao Ling, these grenades are all for you, you can give full play to their effects." Sun Tao handed over all six grenades to Xiao Ling.
They all saw it now, Xiao Ling's super arm strength threw out the grenades, the speed and accuracy were far beyond them, like the cannonballs fired, those alien beasts couldn't avoid even if they wanted to.
Just now, if Xiao Ling hadn't captured the leader of the Yu relics and blew him up, causing the Yu relics group to collapse and chaos, everyone wouldn't have thought about escaping at all, maybe they would all be dead by now.
Xiao Ling nodded, and was not polite, hanging the six grenades on his waist one by one, and replaced them with two brand-new sabers, which were inserted into his belt.
Just now, he didn't know how many Yuyi had killed, and the edges of the two sabers were slightly curled up, and they were no longer sharp.
Qin Yang and Liu Guangsheng rowed silently, and walked forward along the black sea area, as they continued to move away from the buildings soaked in the seawater, everyone could already see that there was a giant black mountain behind them, and below the black mountain, there was a huge cave, and everyone had just escaped by boat from the crack in this cave.
Now the direction of everyone is the third black mountain in the distance.
"We're completely trapped here." Hu Shengzhe smiled bitterly: "With this tattered wooden boat, it is impossible to escape from this vast sea area." ”
Zhou Kesheng was quite calm, and said lightly: "Don't worry, there will be a boat to pick us up in a few days." ”
Xiao Ling thought of what Zhou Kesheng had said before that if they didn't return for ten days, the boss would send another ship into the ruins to rescue, and as long as they held on for a few more days, someone would come to the rescue.
Zhou Kesheng's words calmed everyone down, and Pang Yan said, "What do you say is in the palace?" I seem to have seen a blood-red eye in the water, and I don't know if I was dazzled. ”
Yu Tingting nodded and said, "Sister Yan, you are not dazzled, I also saw it, but I can't think of what it is, I don't know if Professor Wang has any clues?" ”
Among the people, when it comes to foreign objects in the world, Wang Lei has the most experience, and everyone looks at Wang Lei.
Wang Lei sat in the wooden boat, had been bowing his head and pondering, heard Yu Tingting's words, raised his head, showed a hesitant look on his face, and said: "Legend has it that the sea has eyes, it is for the 'sea eye', about the 'sea eye', there are two sayings, one is the eye of the sea, longer than the land, for the hole of the earth, like a well, unfathomable, the sound of the water murmuring, straight to the bottom of the sea, this hole is the eye of the sea stretching out to the land, is for the 'sea eye'. ”
"The second explanation, 'Sea Eye' is the ruins, which corresponds to the towering Kunlun that leads directly to the heavenly court, and is a bottomless pit. According to mythology, in this world, all kinds of rivers in the universe, and even the water in the heavenly galaxy will eventually converge into this primitive and mysterious bottomless pit, but the water in the ruins does not increase or decrease in the slightest. ”
The other thirteen people were all quietly listening to Wang Lei's words, except for Wang Lei's voice, there was silence all around, only the sound of the oars paddling the sea water sounded rhythmically.
Wang Lei paused for a moment and continued: "It is said that the reason why the water in this ruin will not increase or decrease in the slightest is because it is the heart that connects the upper universe and the middle universe, the so-called upper universe is the residence of the Emperor of Heaven, the kingdom of the gods, and the land of divine beasts. The metaphysical world is our world, which is the middle universe just mentioned. ”
Xiao Ling frowned slightly, and said, "Professor Wang, what do you mean that the thing that appears in this palace is the 'Sea Eye'?" "I thought that the blood-red giant eyes that appeared in the palace, if there were nothing, but they could devour people and eat people, not so much the "sea eyes", but some mysterious and weird ancient xenomorph.
Wang Lei shook his head and said, "I didn't say that it was the 'Sea Eye', I just thought of the legend about the 'Sea Eye' and the return to the ruins." Li Lao, you said that the palace plaque is engraved with the word 'Dragon Palace', I thought of our ancient myths and legends, the dragon is the head of the scales, the head of the beast, the head of the clouds, and in the legend of the ruins of the 'sea eye', the 'sea eye' is the heart of the emperor and our earth, the dragon is the inhabitants of the emperor township, and the blood-red giant eyes we see may be the eyes of the real dragon. ”
"The eyes of a real dragon?" Everyone was stunned and looked at Wang Lei together.
Wang Lei's face slowly swelled with a trace of indescribable fear and solemnity, and muttered: "Dragon Palace, that is the dragon's residence, Guiru, is the bridge connecting the upper world and our world, perhaps, this building that collapsed diagonally is the blood-red eyes we see in the ruins that crashed from the upper world to our world, and the blood-red eyes we see may be the eyes of the dragon living in the upper world......"
Hu Shengzhe wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, reluctantly smiled, and said, "Lao Wang, what you said is too mysterious, is there really another so-called upper world outside of our world?" This is completely contrary to our current scientific understanding. ”
Wang Lei looked at him and said, "We have encountered so many strange and salivating things along the way, many of which cannot be explained by modern science, so even if there is really an upper world, there is really a creature like a dragon, it is not absolutely impossible." ”
Hearing Wang Lei say this, there were more beads of sweat on Hu Shengzhe's forehead, he just wiped the sweat and stopped talking, he understood, and if he continued to talk about it, the worldview he had received for so many years was about to completely collapse.
Xiao Ling licked his lips lightly, feeling that his lips were a little dry, and glanced at Zhou Kesheng at the same time.
He thought that before this trip, Zhou Kesheng chatted with him for a long time, and once said that the forces behind him, their purpose is to find out the truth behind the human world, they suspect that behind the human world, there is a more terrifying truth, and even think that human beings from ancient times to the present are raised.
Zhou Kesheng's face was gloomy, he didn't say a word, frowned, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Wang Lei's words made the wooden boat appear as silent as death.
