Genting Heavenly Palace
When Wu Xie and the others walked through the gap, they walked for several hours and saw Mengli sitting there, as if waiting for them.
"Dream Glass...... Are you okay? Wu Xie saw that Mengli's expression was wrong, so he hurriedly went up and asked worriedly.
Mengli shook her head with a smile, and then said, "You guys turn off the flashlight first." ”
The others didn't know what she meant, so they looked at each other, turned off the flashlight in their hands, and instantly the spectacular scene just now appeared around them, and everyone was stunned. The points of light in front of them meandered along the cliff, except for a few huge red fluorescents, which were distorted, moving in the sea of stars, and suddenly disappeared into the darkness, this head was definitely no smaller than the huge grasshopper they saw.
"This, this, this...... That's too much, isn't it? Ye Cheng saw so many dense insects and stepped back in fear.
Mengli pushed his back with his hand, which was about to get close to the cliff, and said, "Be careful not to touch these insects, after a grasshopper dies, its corpse will attract a lot of the same kind, so you must be careful when you go, don't step on them." ”
"Then why don't they seem to attack us now?" Wu Xie asked.
"The creatures in the snowy mountains are generally concentrated on the edge of the hot springs, so there should be hot springs nearby. The temperature is still cold, and these things are lying here in a half-dead state, and they won't wake up without a particularly strong stimulus. Junko explained.
They were connected to each other with climbing ropes, clinging to the cliffs on one side, stepping on the protruding stones, and walking up little by little. Everyone was careful, the fat man's feet were big, and he stepped on those stones as if he were on stilts, so after a few steps, his legs began to tremble. Everyone looked at him and felt nervous, because as soon as he fell, it was estimated that everyone would fall with him.
After climbing for a while, I looked down, and there was already a pitch-black abyss below. As I walked, I suddenly heard the sound of water all around, and when I turned on the flashlight, there were several springs and waterfalls on the cliff on one side, flowing along the cliff.
"There's a hot spring here, so we can wash our faces and get comfortable." The fat man shouted, and he reached into the hot spring, which was only one hand away from him.
"Don't move." Mengli stopped softly, she shone a flashlight on the rocks on the edge of the hot spring, there were a lot of very strange patterns, but if you looked closely, these were not lines at all, but an arm-thick grasshopper lying on it, the color of these earthflies was exactly the same as the volcanic stones on the side, and you couldn't tell them if you didn't look carefully.
Looking around, almost all the rocks on this side were crawling with these things, motionless.
"Bosses, let's go, we'll be fine after this paragraph." Junko said softly.
Everyone continued to climb slowly up the stone stairs, carefully passing the area of the hot spring, and slowly, the stone grasshoppers gradually decreased, and then they were no longer visible.
"By the way, old man, let me ask you something. On the train, what did you say about Kowloon carrying the coffin? I've always been curious. The fat man asked as he crawled.
Chen Pi Ah Si stopped and glanced at him, then at Monk Hua, and motioned for him to explain. Let a man who is more than ninety years old walk for so long and climb such a high mountain, and almost half of his life is gone, so Chen Pi Ah Si tried not to talk and waste his physical strength, so he asked Monk Hua to explain on his behalf.
"Actually, we don't know, all our information comes from that fish. The Nine Dragons carrying the corpse may be a lost funeral system, and the original text seems to say that the coffin of the Wannu Emperor was carried by nine dragons, and the nine dragons guarded his body, and no one could get close to it. However, the Jurchen language is almost lost, so we don't know if the meaning of what we translate is not. Then Monk Hua read out the original text and read it to them, the pronunciation of Jurchen was too unfamiliar to Wu Xie, because the Jurchen nation was too small, and he had never learned it.
But for Mengli, the Nuzhen is too familiar, probably because the Dream Clan has a special ability to perceive words...... And she has also studied the Jurchens.
"Then if what the fish said is true, if we want to open the coffin of Emperor Wannu, we still have to learn Nezha vs. the third prince of the Dragon King?" Ye Cheng said jokingly.
"Nine dragons carry the corpse coffin, but the coffin is engraved with nine dragons, which is the hundred-legged dragon we just saw. This Nine Dragons Coffin is different from the ordinary coffin, it is a regular octagonal shape, each corner is supported by a dragon, and the eight dragons are surrounded by a dragon to play a stabilizing role. Mengli said, but she coughed again, deliberately scaring them, "However, as for whether there are those giant grasshoppers just now, then I can't guarantee it." ”
"This is easy to do, come to my fat master and ......blow it up" Before the fat man finished speaking, suddenly a gust of wind blew from the side of the cliff, blowing him almost falling, fortunately Wu Xie helped him in time, pulled him back to the cliff, and said: "Fatty, watch you blow it, I almost blew myself down." ”
When I turned my head, it turned out that the stairs had reached the end of the gap, and when I walked over again, there seemed to be a large space outside, but it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Mengli and they moved closer to the limit of the edge, and climbed on a protruding mountain rock, Monk Hua made a cold fire, and the surroundings were illuminated, except for the cliff where they stood, nothing in front of them. Then he threw the cold smoke down, and the smoke fell straight down, and suddenly became small dots, and when it fell to the ground, it was almost invisible.
It seemed to be a basin in front of it, Monk Hua "bang" and lit a flare, which crossed a long arc, shot straight out more than a hundred meters, and began to fall, and then a dazzling white incandescent ball exploded, and in an instant the light illuminated the darkness in front of it.
They froze when they saw that there was an immensely large crater with a diameter of at least three kilometers.
"This ...... It turned out to be a volcanic crater! Wu Xie exclaimed.
The crater is covered with a large number of dead trees, possibly due to volcanic eruptions, or sudden volcanic activity, where the trees have all been sulfided and died.
"Look there." Suddenly someone shouted, and then two flares were fired and flew above the crater, and in the light they saw a magnificent complex of buildings that appeared in the depths of the underground forest in the middle of the volcanic basin, a huge black stone city, but they could not see the whole picture. The sheer scale of those complexes is beyond anyone's imagination.
"Genting Heavenly Palace......" Mengli looked over there, thoughtful.
"Leave the useless things behind, prepare the ropes, and we'll travel lightly." When they were extremely shocked and excited, Chen Pi Ah Si suddenly shouted.
