Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Ruins Are Shocked
I understood what he meant, and after thinking about it carefully, I found that it was true, such a stone henge, at most, could trap some things with low IQs, such as birds of prey and beasts. With a little brain, even if you get into trouble at the beginning, you will definitely be able to find clues later.
Could it be that this stone henge is really used to protect against wild beasts? It seems unlikely, where did the beast come from in this space tens of meters deep underground.
"Okay, it's just a guess to say that the sky is broken now, maybe there will be an answer in the ruins, so let's leave quickly!"
The old man's words reminded us that we were not entangled at the moment, and we continued to march towards the basin after packing our bags.
After passing through the stone statues, we are presented with a wide brown plain, and we have to walk about a kilometer to reach the nearest complex.
The range of the flashlight is limited, and only some vague shadows can be seen with exhaustive eyesight. The whole basin was enveloped by a violent wind, which blew through the ruins of the city, making unpleasant whining noises that gave me goosebumps all over my body.
The yin wind blows from the city, and it seems that the source is in the city. The closer I got, the more nervous I became, what was the origin of the underground city, which was completely shrouded in deep darkness? And who would build such a city in such a place? Are there any living people in the city?
Everything is unknown.
……
As we continue to shorten the distance to the city, the buildings on the edge enter the effective illumination range of the flashlight, and we finally see the real appearance of these buildings.
I've seen a lot of buildings from all over the world and ethnic groups, but this is the first time I've seen something like this. The style of these houses resembles that of the polar Eskimos igloos, and at first glance they look like they were hollowed out of a huge mountain rock. But if you look closely, you will find that this is not a whole rock, but a lot of strange black rocks that are smooth, and there is no adhesive used, all of which are tightly sealed by the card slots between the stone cracks.
Not only the walls of the building, but also some of the curved domes and ornaments, are all made of intricately carved black stone. This is more awesome, it already belongs to the field of high-end precision machining, the pyramids of ancient Egypt did not use any binder, but it is only by the superimposed gravity of the stone to maintain stability, but the stone house in front of you, its arc-shaped treasure top has exceeded the scope of gravity superposition, but it can still maintain the stability of the building structure, it is really unimaginable.
All of this gives a sense of vicissitudes and antiquity, but the black stone that makes up the building is so special that it is impossible to tell its exact age. However, the layout of this ancient city is very similar to that of modern cities, with traces of river planning in the city.
You must know that the underground river channel is relatively stable, and this is the karst landform area located in the Hengduan Mountains, with abundant underground water veins, even if the ground is dry for decades, the underground river will not be affected too much. Judging from the traces of the river drying up in front of you, the river has been dry for at least a thousand years, so the age of this city must be much earlier than this time.
Underground cities that existed thousands of years ago, could this be another ethnic group that was not known to the world at that time? I thought about it and found that it was really possible, Yunnan and Guizhou have been a wild place since ancient times, a place outside the world, especially in this section where the ancient ruins are located. More than 2,000 years ago, even the great unified dynasty on the surface of the earth, whose productive forces had been greatly reformed, was not easy to build such a magnificent city, let alone the ancient Dian in a state of wilderness.
Moreover, the level of technology displayed by these buildings is by no means possessed by backward ancient times, unless it is another race that lives underground and has never been discovered by the world, they have mastered technology beyond the times, but they have always lived in the underground world.
This kind of conjecture is a bit absurd, even I feel a little ridiculous, but in connection with the stone statues on the outskirts of the basin and those things that seem to be wormholes, I suddenly think of some legends about the existence of prehistoric civilizations and aliens in the center of the earth.
Seeing these ruins in front of him, the Taoist priest was simply amazed, and did not think too much, the old man's target was the source of the black qi, and after a short shock, he urged us to leave quickly.
The black qi was mixed with the yin wind, blowing out from the depths of the ruins, the black qi was so evil that both the old man and the Taoist priest could feel this special aura, so there was no need to worry about finding the way at all.
Along the way, I walked through this mysterious ruin, which sleeps more than 30 meters underground, and I witnessed a large number of magnificent buildings, countless breathtakingly detailed stone carvings standing on both sides of the blackstone paved streets, and many strange murals carved on the facades of the tall buildings on both sides of the streets.
I deliberately slowed down my pace, and as I walked, I noticed that the carvings in these murals were very similar to many ancient myths. For example, in one of the paintings, on the day of the ten birds, a person on the ground holds a bow and arrows to shoot the sun, which looks like the mythical Dayi shooting the sun; There is also a picture of water flooding the earth, a giant holding an iron rod to measure the depth of the river pattern, and Yu when controlling the water to measure the depth of the sea with a needle.
But the strange thing is that the characters in these patterns actually have a similar feature - the third eye, which is exactly the same as the mythical and legendary god Erlang.
Looking at it, I became more and more curious about this almost abandoned ruins, and at the same time regretted it to the extreme, I shouldn't have given the camera to Lin Qiaoer, if I could shoot this relic beyond the cognition of civilization, it would definitely become the eighth wonder after the seven miracles of human civilization, subverting the cognition and imagination of the world.
Thinking about it, I already regretted that my intestines were blue.
After hearing my thoughts, the Taoist priest glanced at me and looked at me like an idiot: "Don't you have a fucking mobile phone?" ”
A word woke up the dreamer, I slapped my head suddenly, yes, there is no camera, but my phone is still there! The latest model that has just been changed this year, taking pictures of the bar. I prayed in my heart, and my heart said that there must be electricity, and when I took it out and looked at it, I found that there was still about half of the electricity left, and I was overjoyed.
As I walked and photographed, the white flashes flickered in the dark ruins, and if I looked down from a distance, I would definitely be frightened by the movement I made at this time. But as soon as the occupational disease came up, I couldn't care about it, and I quickly took hundreds of photos.
Tuk tuk! The crisp system prompt sounded, I was stunned, looked at the screen, and found that the memory had been occupied, and suddenly remembered that my original memory card had been replaced with the memory card of the mobile phone that Uncle Ade handed over to Yang Mengqing.
I was depressed, gritted my teeth, deleted the more than 30 G action blockbusters stored in the memory of my phone, and I didn't care about the distress, and continued to shoot while walking.
The yin wind is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems to be approaching the eye of the storm.
"Attention, the source of the black gas should be nearby."
The old man's words confirmed my suspicions, and before I knew it, we had gone deep into the ruins. Affected by the yin wind, the buildings in this section were quite badly damaged, with ruins everywhere, all the tall buildings were destroyed, and the ground paved with black stone blocks was full of cracks.
"Hey, here, it looks like an altar!" The Taoist priest carefully observed the surroundings and suddenly exclaimed.
"The altar?" The old man and I turned our eyes to him, not knowing where he had come to his conclusions.
Just as the Taoist priest was about to explain, a sharp and unpleasant infant wail suddenly sounded above the ruins. As soon as this sound came out, it was immediately blown out by a strong wind, but our faces changed. I'm all too familiar with this sound, it's clearly the unique call of the sickle-billed monster bird that is wreaking havoc in Fengyang Town and can turn the townspeople into the living dead!
The Taoist priest immediately shone a flashlight into the air, and suddenly found a black shadow flashing from the beam of the flashlight, although I only saw it, but the strange bird's unique special sickle mouth was still seen by me, obviously it is undoubted.
Before I could be horrified, the shadow flashed again, two, three...... Almost a moment later, about twenty meters in the air above the ruins, there were countless strange birds circling densely, and for a while, the terrible cry of babies filled the entire sky, just this number, there are definitely no less than thousands!
I see that my scalp is numb, when I was in Yang Mengqing's house before, I almost wiped out our army when I just ran into three, if it weren't for the Taoist priest at the critical moment, I am afraid that the three of us would have already become the living dead, thousands of them...... Even if every spit on us can drown us!
"Immeasurable, your grandmother is a Tianzun, it's over, Dao Ye is really going to return today!"
As soon as the Taoist priest's words fell, he heard a continuous clicking and cracking sound from the ground, and his feet suddenly shook violently, and at the same time, the strange birds hovering in the sky suddenly let out a chorus, and they actually pounced on us at the same time.
For a moment, the shaking of our feet and the strange birds swooping down from the sky made us look away. The crack in the black stone floor cracked sharply, and I stepped on one of the cracks, and the whole person immediately fell.
The Taoist priest was quick and grabbed me, but the cracking of the ground continued, and he couldn't stabilize himself, so he could only grab me first.
At this time, the flock of strange birds was only about ten meters away from us, but suddenly, they seemed to have hit something, making a thumping sound, as if there was an invisible barrier outside the ruins, blocking the invasion of strange birds.
This is undoubtedly good news for us, but what we didn't expect was that after the strange bird collided with the barrier, a more powerful yin wind suddenly blew out from the crack under my feet, mixed with majestic black qi, almost condensed into substance.
I was blown out by the yin wind, and before I could be shocked, the entire ruins suddenly lit up with a bright white light, and some of the white light dissolved with the black gas gushing out of the cracks in the ground, but more white light poured out in all directions, curling the strange birds hovering outside the ruins.
The moment we saw this white light, the old man and the Taoist priest all changed their faces, and I hurriedly shouted to them: "Come here and me!" ”
Before the words could be spoken, a white light that illuminated almost the entire ruins enveloped us.
