Chapter 152: Natural Caves
"Cheng Yang, don't tell me that the sound of water came from here." Lu Qiu said a little speechlessly.
Cheng Yang nodded and said, "Hurry up and find out if there is a mechanism or something here that can move this stone statue or something, stay here for a while, Cheng Yang feels that his clothes are about to wring out water." ”
Lu Qiu began to look around after hearing Cheng Yang's words, but Cheng Yang stared at this stone statue in a daze, thinking what the hell this stone statue is, although he couldn't see his appearance, but the whole face felt like a whole piece and didn't do any detail modification. At this time, Lu Qiu opened his mouth, "Cheng Yang, don't you feel that the stone statues here seem to be tied and kneeling towards these wooden boxes?" ”
Hearing Lu Qiu's words, Cheng Yang suddenly felt that this was the case, the stone statues here were actually kneeling towards the wooden box, and only this stone statue was different from the other stone statues, it seemed that this stone statue knelt deeper.
Cheng Yang couldn't care so much now, and he didn't bring anything to clean up the moss on the stone statue, so he had to kick it out. With a squeak, the stone statue instantly fell backwards, and the sound of the stone moving and the sound of gears made people feel creepy. Lu Qiu said, "Look at the wall over there! ”
Cheng Yang looked at the wall, and sure enough, a gap large enough for a person to pass through was exposed on the wall, Cheng Yang did not stand directly at the gap for fear of whether there would be a rain of arrows flying out inside, Cheng Yang broke a small part of the candle in his hand, looking at the length of the candle, if they didn't find anything to burn within half an hour, maybe Cheng Yang and Lu Qiu would have to grope around in the dark.
Cheng Yang stretched out his hand to point it, and threw the broken candle into it after the gap was right, and the sound of the candle rolling became unusually quiet. Lu Qiu seemed to be a little impatient, and immediately walked towards the center of the gap, Cheng Yang felt that something was wrong, and who knew that three bronze arrows flew out of the gap in an instant, and they were nailed to the wall behind him along Lu Qiu's scalp.
Lu Qiu, who was dragged by Cheng Yang, turned pale with fright at this time, and Cheng Yang was also afraid, it seems that there is really a mechanism here, fortunately he just dragged Lu Qiu, otherwise it might be Lu Qiu himself who is nailed to the wall behind now.
Cheng Yang patted Lu Qiu's shoulder before he came back to his senses, Cheng Yang said: "It seems that we have to be careful, if there is a mechanism here, it means that there must be secrets or valuable things in it." ”
Lu Qiu also calmed down at this time, looked at the crack in the door in front of him and said, "This time I took the lead, and they all said that if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future." After speaking, Lu Qiu walked in with a candle and moved his steps, and Cheng Yang followed behind him cautiously, for fear of touching some mechanism.
Cheng Yang could feel that the air was getting wetter and wetter, and the sound of water in front of him was getting louder and louder. But Cheng Yang obviously felt that he seemed to be walking down, not up.
Cheng Yang felt as if something was covering his voice, because he was not walking very fast now, Cheng Yang had to pat Lu Qiu and gesture to express his moving forward, originally there was still a tacit understanding. But it seems that some of Lu Qiu's skills are sometimes not very effective, just like now, this Lu Qiu actually danced after seeing Cheng Yang's gestures, and this dance is still a spoof dance that the two of them once danced together, Cheng Yang was speechless to the extreme at this time.
Cheng Yang slapped his head, pointed ahead, and motioned for Lu Qiu to continue walking forward. The two continued to move forward, and at this time, a sharp turn made Cheng Yang stop, Cheng Yang looked at the wall with a candle, and found that there were indeed several small holes in the wall, which seemed to be the mechanism that had just fired the bronze arrow.
After turning the corner and walking for a while, Cheng Yang saw that the candle was about to burn to the bottom, and walked for nearly thirty minutes, when the candle was about to go out, suddenly Lu Qiu turned his head and pointed forward. Cheng Yang saw that there was a bright light in front of him, Cheng Yang thought it was an illusion, shook his head and looked ahead again, it was true, yes, there was a bright light.
The candle had already burned Cheng Yang's hands a little, so he had to throw it on the ground, and the closer he got to the light, the louder the sound of water became, but fortunately it was within the range that his ears could bear. I don't know how long I walked and finally walked out.
Cheng Yang looked around, this was a naturally formed open-air circular cave, and suddenly remembered that there was a large mountain a few kilometers away from the old house, which was said to have been inhabited there, and at night there were people who saw the halo covering the entire peak. During the day, someone once saw the shadow of the palace in the clouds on the mountain, so this mountain is called Yunding Mountain, but these have not been seen by Cheng Yang's generation, but the old people in the village have seen it.
Cheng Yang watched as the water falling from the top flowed all the way down into the deep pool below, and the surrounding cliffs were very steep, and it was extremely difficult to climb to the top from here.
Cheng Yang and the two happened to be on a small platform, and after looking around, they found that there was a stone cave dug by hand on the left. It looked like it was supposed to be a step made of wood or something, Cheng Yang asked Lu Qiu to pull himself to test the distance, and found that the distance was just right, just the distance that a normal person could walk in one step.
At this time, the sound of the water is much smaller than the sound of the water in the cave just now, because the hole itself is a natural sound amplifier, so the sound in the cave ** is several times louder than the sound outside. Suddenly, Cheng Yang felt that his feet slipped, and he slid directly out of the platform.
At such a high place, as long as you fall down, it will definitely become a meatloaf, at this time, Cheng Yang's arm suddenly felt tight, and when he looked up, he saw Lu Qiu grabbing his arm with one hand, and he was dragging Cheng Yang up.
When he returned to the platform, Cheng Yang breathed a sigh of relief instantly, fortunately, Lu Qiu dragged himself, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Cheng Yang slowed down and said, "We have to lie down these small holes, you follow me." After speaking, Cheng Yang took a deep breath and walked down the hole, there is still a large section from this platform to the bottom of the bottom, and the soles of his feet will be fixed with each step to prevent him from falling down again.
As I walked, I thought that the old man had clearly warned me that I could not come here, that the sun was already high above my head, and that the two of them had climbed to the bottom, and that there was a huge pool of water below, and branches that had washed down from it over the years.
Cheng Yang and Lu Qiu already felt a little exhausted, and walked to the edge of the waterhole to take a look, fortunately it is living water, there are many springs in this mountain, so there are many places like this kind of waterhole.
Cheng Yang took a sip of water and instantly felt that he came to life, and then lay down, although his body had relaxed, Cheng Yang was still thinking about how to go out, according to the normal state, the two of them should go up to get out, but obviously now they are already in a low position.
Lu Qiu took two sips of water and took off his clothes and went into the water, because it was summer, and he didn't feel how hot it was in this open-air cave. After a while, Cheng Yang suddenly heard a plop and then fell silent, Cheng Yang sat up suddenly, and saw that there was no trace of Lu Qiu on the water.
