Chapter 322: The Reverse Current
The steel spikes were inserted deep into the snow.
Chu Pingqiu used all his strength to test the firmness of the steel nail with his hands, and then took out a turn of rope from Liang Cheng's backpack and tied it to the steel nail.
"You go down first." Chu Pingqiu said and tied the rope around Liang Cheng's waist, and then gently patted Liang Cheng's shoulder, "I don't know the maximum amount that the frozen soil can withstand the tension, so you go down first, and if something happens, I can remedy it on it." ”
Liang Cheng nodded slightly, then pinned the plastic tube to his backpack and slowly walked to the side of the cliff.
At your feet is a cliff. Sparkling water cascaded down from the cave beneath Liang Cheng's feet, and through the hazy white mist, Liang Cheng could vaguely see patches of snow and huge snow-covered rocks on the edge of the lake at the foot of the mountain.
Liang Cheng's feet were shaking because Liang Cheng had a very serious fear of heights. The height of the snow-capped mountain peak and the lake was nearly 500 meters, which had already made Liang Cheng lose the courage to continue approaching.
Liang Cheng's hands kept shaking, and Liang Cheng's legs trembled even more violently. Liang Cheng's eyes were fixed on the rope tied to Liang Cheng's waist in his hand, as well as the thin steel nails wrapped around the rope.
Chu Pingqiu grabbed the other end of the rope tightly, gave Liang Cheng a faint look, and signaled Liang Cheng not to be afraid.
How could it not be afraid! This fear is clearly instinctive! Liang Cheng began to hesitate a little, became a little regretful, and always hesitated on the edge of the cliff.
"It's not like you're jumping off a cliff." Chu Pingqiu lightly pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said to Liang Cheng, and then he grabbed the rope and walked slowly towards Liang Cheng, "I'll tell you ......"
Seeing that Chu Pingqiu was about to start telling the truth again, Liang Cheng relaxed his nervousness. Unexpectedly, Chu Pingqiu walked to Liang Cheng's side and directly pushed Liang Cheng out of the cliff!
The body left the cliff, and Liang Cheng hurriedly grabbed the rope tied to his waist! But because the rope was too long and not tightened at all, Liang Cheng's hands did not receive any pull, but he could only watch his body break away from the cliff and fall downward!
The heart has already jumped out of Liang Cheng's throat! At the moment when the cave of the Snow Mountain Waterfall appeared in front of Liang Cheng's eyes, the rope was instantly straightened and tightened, and at the same time, Liang Cheng's nerves trembled violently!
Liang Cheng hurriedly hugged a raised rock next to the cave, and finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The steady stream of water splashes around him hit the rock and fell down, and Liang Cheng looked at the water splash stupidly, as if he was also falling with it!
The sudden two pulls of the rope made Liang Chengmeng regain his senses! Chu Pingqiu's voice came from overhead: "Untie the rope." ”
raised his head and looked up, but only saw half of Chu Pingqiu's head poking out.
Liang Cheng cautiously moved into the cave and untied the rope around his waist. The rope was pulled up, and soon, Chu Pingqiu's bow and crossbow were tied to the rope and slowly put down.
Liang Cheng took the bow and crossbow off the rope, and the rope was pulled up again.
At this time, several pieces of collapsed snow fell off the rock wall of the cave, smashed against the rocks of the waterfall, and then were washed away by the water gushing out of the cave.
A bloated thigh slowly appeared from the top of the cave, sliding down little by little, and then the body, just as Chu Pingqiu was about to stand on the rock at the entrance of the cave, the straight rope suddenly went limp!
That's the steel nail falling off! Chu Pingqiu obviously didn't react in a hurry, the moment his legs touched the rock, his body actually fell backwards because of inertia!
Liang Cheng hurriedly grabbed his arm!
It's dangerous!
Looking at the blank mist under Chu Pingqiu's feet, he looked up and looked at Chu Pingqiu again.
The steel nail fell from the top of the peak to the bottom of the cliff with a silver light, and then was firmly held by the rope on Chu Pingqiu's waist.
Chu Pingqiu didn't say anything, just lightly pulled the rope up with the steel nails, as if nothing had happened just now.
After a while, Chu Pingqiu loaded the bow and crossbow, put it on his shoulder, turned his head to Liang Cheng and said, "Keep walking." ”
So Liang Cheng nodded, and followed Chu Pingqiu to the depths of the cave.
The cave is wide enough to accommodate about three people walking side by side. The deeper you go into the cave, the more you feel as if you are walking in a dark river underground, and the light becomes much dimmer.
Liang Cheng and Chu Pingqiu were struggling to move on the uneven rock walls on both sides of the cave, and their travel shoes had already been soaked in the cold water. The biting cold spread to Liang Cheng's whole body, and the soles of his feet gradually began to numb.
The yin qi in the cave seems to be very heavy, and in the darkness in front of him, there seems to be an invisible power, which is constantly swallowing towards this cave and spitting out rich yin qi.
Soon we reached the end of the cave.
At the end of the cave is a vast cave! Large and small, high and low stone stalactites, stalagmites are hung in the karst cave, there are many of them, they are mighty and magnificent!
And the high top of the cave above our heads is the same as the cave we reached along the road in the cave before, inlaid with a lot of glowing fluorite, which is both like ghost fire and stars.
Looking down, under the dim light emitted by the fluorite on the top of the cave, on the ground of the cave, close to the wall of the cave, it is actually an ancient high platform finely carved out of rock!
It was a high-rise pavilion that Liang Cheng didn't know what age it was, if you looked at it in a hurry, this pavilion seemed to be built with timber!
Every piece of rubble on the rock-made eaves has been carefully carved, as well as the patterns on the beams and rafters, the reliefs on the pillars, and the beautiful carvings on the looming doors and windows! Everything is so careful, so ingenious!
Liang Cheng couldn't help but secretly sigh at the ingenuity and exquisite craftsmanship of this room builder!
Continuing to look, directly in front of the position where the high platform sits is a pond, the pond is artificially opened, and around the edge of this circular pond is a rock carved to the fullest!
It was puzzling that the python was the same as the one we saw on the floor of the last room, its body in a ring around the edge of the pool, and half of its tail was eaten into its mouth.
The pond in front of us looked more like a dead pond, but the water in the pond was connected to the water in the cave under our feet, and there was a vertically falling waterfall that connected the two of them, but—
The water of this waterfall actually flows from the bottom up!
Chu Pingqiu didn't seem particularly surprised, but in the face of this supernatural situation in front of him, all Chu Pingqiu could do was to think silently.
After a while, Chu Pingqiu slowly opened his mouth and said to Liang Cheng, "Can you understand the meaning of the python carved by the pool." Liang Cheng shook his head.
