93: Is it really you?
Poof!
The familiar and unfamiliar echoes were shocking, and Qing Yu and Gu Nan immediately pricked up their ears, squatted on the edge of the cliff together, and glanced at each other very tacitly.
"Twigs." Qing Yu gave advice, and Gu Nanyi had already taken the branch in his hand, then stretched it out to the bottom of the cliff, stirred it a few times, and then took it back, and the branch did not change at all.
"Did you hear me wrong?" Qing Yu wondered, stretched his hand down as he spoke, and Gu Nanyi hurriedly stopped:
"Why are you so anxious? What if something really happens? Gu Nan seemed to be speaking to a child, and then picked up a stone and threw it down-
Poof.
Sure enough, it was the same sound as just now, the sound of a stone falling into the water!
The two looked at each other again and threw down a few more stones. It sounded like the water was very close, but when I changed the long branches to explore, there was still no trace of water, and I couldn't hear the sound of the water at all.
If there is water in the abyss, it must be a quiet lake, and the ferrata can easily swim across the opposite shore.
All the mysteries seem to have found a plausible explanation, but the key water is ......
"I'll try again." Qing Yu reached out again, and Gu Nanyi intercepted her again:
"What if it's not water, it's sulfuric acid or something? This is the ruins of alders, and no one knows what will happen. β
"Okay, Gu Nanyi, I know what I'm doing." Qing Yu pushed his hand away, his eyes were as bright as fire, but she was cold, "Even if it's a strong acid, my ability can minimize the damage, if it's you, it's gone." β
Gu Nanyi couldn't refute, his heart sank, and his eyes staring at Qing Yu were sharper than a blade: "You are so confident in your ability?" Don't forget that you are a man of flesh and blood after all, not iron. β
Qing Yu was silent for a moment, and there was no emotion between his eyebrows after all: "Gu Nanyi, I'm afraid of trouble." Friend, Hefu alone is enough for me to have a headache. β
The boundaries she drew were very clear, and Gu Nanyi smiled disapprerovingly: "I'm afraid you're thinking too much, I just care about the employment agreement between us." β
"That's for the best." Qing Yu was cold, and put his hand under the cliff. In the obscure darkness of the moonlight, Gu Nanyi's brows were always tightened, as if he was looking at an inscrutable work of art, wanting to see this woman thoroughly.
Suddenly, Qingyu's expression changed, and he stretched out his other hand as well.
"What are you doing!" Gu Nan pounced, and the moment he grabbed her arm, he obviously felt that his hand was immersed in the water-
The ice was cold, it was indeed water, and there was no discomfort in it.
Not an abyss in front of them, is there really a lake?
Both of them put their hands in the water to confirm, but when they took them out, they didn't feel the slightest bit of water:
"How is this possible......"
Gu Nanyi couldn't agree, and repeatedly tried to confirm it, but the reality in front of him was beyond doubt. There is real water here, a water that is neither visible nor wet, it is not an atomized liquid, it turns out to be real water to the touch.
"You also said, this is the alder, and it's not strange that anything appears." Qing Yu was very indifferent, as if he was laughing at Gu Nan for making a fuss, saying that he was ready to go into the water.
Gu Nanyi is a cautious person, or as an intelligence businessman, prudence is in his nature. And this kind of nature and mercenaries should coincide, a successful mercenary must be cautious in his words and deeds, so that he can live a long time.
Qing Yu was by no means a reckless person, but Gu Nan realized at this moment that he didn't really know anything about her. This woman is far more impulsive and restless than she seems. Once a decision has been made, it is difficult for others to change it.
She was very confident in her skills and abilities, or rather, she never really cared about her life and death.
"Why did you become a mercenary, what is the reason for living like this." Gu Nanyi asked. They have gone into the water and are swimming in bizarre lakes.
The splash wasn't loud, but Light Feather didn't answer his question, didn't seem to hear it, just sped up the speed of the swim. In about ten minutes, the two of them went ashore, at the foot of another twin building.
After coming out of the water, the two of them were very dry, and they could not find the slightest trace of swimming. The scenery on this side of the lake is completely different from the forest on the other side - there is no green and vegetation here, and even the temperature is significantly higher;
As far as the eye could see, there were lava of various shapes, yellow and withered in the obscure moonlight.
There is no wind here, and depending on the state of the lava, the geographical environment should be a cave deep underground. But the moon really hung in the sky, and it was impossible for such a vast and spacious cave. 117
Qing Yu felt surprised and surprised, but Gu Nanyi was extremely familiar:
"So that's the case, the two sides are connected by a glass plank road!" Gu Nanyi pointed to the distance, it was a huge lava shaped like a knife moon, "When I was a child, we passed by the road on the right, if I remember correctly, there is a valley further south of that place, and there is a mutant mandala growing in it!" β
Qing Yu squinted and looked at it: "The exploration of the ruins organized by the government more than ten years ago was just to find that thing?" β
Organizing camp inmates to explore the ruins was a regular part of the government's action, and it was very rare to see them being dedicated to something. Before this incident, Gu Nanyi was not sure of this, but now it is almost certain:
"The first time we explored the ruins was not that time, and the government had already conducted small-scale secret expeditions before. At that time, they discovered the mutant mandala, and then established a secret cultivation base. Unfortunately, the sample was too small, and the research results in the past few years were not ideal, so there was a second large-scale exploration......"
"Is the mutant mandala really that rare? So what the government wants? Qing Yu felt incomprehensible, according to her thinking inertia, it was difficult to say that there was no hidden conspiracy behind this.
Gu Nanyi also couldn't figure this out: "I didn't see the mutant mandala back then, and I don't know what it is, but now it is certain that the powder of that flower can make people go crazy, and I don't know what I am doing at all." β
Speaking of this, Gu Nan's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but tighten his fists. Qing Yu looked at it in his eyes: "You said that you were looking for the mutant mandala to find out the truth, what happened to your family back then?" β
Gu Nan looked at her with a refusal in his gaze.
Light Feather smiled and shook his head: "If you don't want to say it, forget it, anyway, my task is to find the blue box." As she spoke, she walked towards the glass building, but at this moment, she saw a figure in the distance:
"Iron Cable!"
Qing Yu exclaimed in surprise and chased after him, and Gu Nanyi immediately followed. The lava field under the moonlight was uneven, and there were many obstacles in the field of vision, and the iron rope walked quickly through the lava, and the figure flickered between the lava, but left clear footprints on the lava sand along the way.
The direction that Tiesuan is rushing to seems to be where the mutant mandala is!
Qing Yu and Gu Nanyi followed closely, but they were afraid that the distance would be too close to startle the snake, and when they got closer, they found that there were houses built in the surrounding lava. I heard that before the end of the world, the world's population was as high as more than 10 billion, whether in the sky or under the water, there was basically no place to live, the per capita housing area was extremely tight, and some rich people had already moved to space, and only there could they buy spacious houses.
The houses here are long abandoned, and the tiny windows are densely packed like hornet's nests growing in lava. It can be seen that this place was supposed to be a living area in the past, and most of the people who lived here were in the service of experiments here.
In order to serve the outermost space test site, they set up a large scientific research institute in the forest, and the people who worked here lived in the lava field on the other side. Of course, Gu Nanyi didn't think that the ruins of the alder two hundred years ago were what they see today, and after the impact of the apocalyptic disaster, chemical leakage and unknown radiation caused too many abnormalities, and even the water quality could become like that, and it was not uncommon for this living area to become a lava field.
The world of the past was unimaginable to mankind after the apocalypse, but the darkness and struggle that human beings are in now are also unimaginable to human beings before them. If one day there are suddenly more supernatural people, I am afraid that the human race two hundred years ago will be overwhelmed.
Under the moonlight, the pace of the iron rope is very urgent, and he can't wait like a child running to the playground. He walked through the dry lava landscape and reached the valley, where he was greeted by grass and piles of bonesβ
That's right.
This is a mass grave!
Gu Nanyi was stunned that the cat was in the grass, and everything in front of him was very different from what he saw when he was a child.
"They, they killed everyone......" Gu Nan was stunned, the clothes on the bones were the prison uniforms of the concentration camp. At that time, there were only a few people who went out of the ruins, and the government also blocked the alders on this ground.
But who would have thought that the truth would be like this.
All of them were tied up, and their skulls were pierced with bullet holes!
Qing Yu was also very shocked, and he didn't understand what kind of secret he had made the government so vicious.
Iron Rope was unaware of what was being followed, and he didn't think anyone would follow him - even if they could escape under the cannibal vines, they would have to go back the way they came, and even if they did find the glass plank path, the chances of discovering the secrets of the abyssal water were slim to none;
Moreover, his heart was so anxious that he longed to grow a pair of wings and fly here at once, thinking of the marks on the pyramid:
"Brother! I'm coming! Brother! β
"I'm Xinghe! Brother, are you there?! I see your mark! β
One after another shouted faintly with a crying tone, the man who was more than two meters tall and had a terrifying face like a devil seemed to be a helpless and frightened teenager at this moment. The valley full of corpses was terrifyingly quiet, and there were too many secrets hidden behind the scattered lava, and the iron rope called itself the galaxy, shouting and running towards a few pieces of lava piled up in everything:
"Galaxy ......?"
Someone hesitated to come out from behind the lava, the long knife on his back was his symbol, but his ice blue eyes were full of astonishment: "Really, is it you......"
