Chapter 179: Is This a Green Passage to Hell?
The engineering team and the ancient blue bird walked down the tunnel together, and even these well-informed team members were a little shocked, they walked for more than an hour, and they were still slowly descending in a straight cave, just with a little slope, all the way down.
Yu Jing said: "I finally understand, if I don't know what's down here, I don't dare to go down directly, it's too scary, it's a place to torture people!" ”
Gu Qingniao smiled: "The psychological pressure of minimalism is simply a classic." ”
Yu Jie also nodded, but Li Xiaoyao didn't speak, just as silent as the engineering team member, his heart now only hurry up to the bottom, and then see the derivative of the stone tablet, and then he can rest assured, as for how to go down...... Didn't the ancient bluebird say that there are steps?
After walking for four or five hours, and having a meal halfway through, they arrived at the bottom of the stele in the afternoon, and saw a huge mountain of stones extending from under the stele. It is indeed a stone mountain, only the size of a stone monument on it, and the further down it goes, the bigger it gets, otherwise it would not be able to support such a large cave.
The underground stone, Gu Qingniao preliminarily estimated that the diameter can be more than 30 meters, and it is completely capable of opening an elevator for engineering.
At the end of the cave, the ancient bluebird saw a stone open door, with a decayed wooden door on it, the engineering team removed the wooden door, put it aside, the lock on it became a piece of scrap copper and rotten iron, and the bare rock above the head was engraved with three words.
The engineering team pointed the light at the three words on it, illuminated them, and after looking at it for a long time, they didn't understand it, and said, "What is this word?" ”
The ancient bluebird glanced up and said, "It's written on the Earth Ghost Mountain." ”
"Ground ghosts?" Yu Jing was startled and asked, "Is there a ghost?" ”
Gu Qingniao shook his head and said: "At that time, ghosts did not mean ghosts and creatures produced by human roars, ghosts in that era actually covered many concepts, including ghosts, gods, demons and elves, and many living beings would be called ghosts, because there was no perfect classification at that time, for example, the mountain ghost was actually the image of a mountain god, not a ghost. ”
Yu Jing instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Qingniao continued: "If this place is really called Earth Ghost Mountain, as mentioned above, it is likely that this is a relic left by a great power. I think it may be like this, the reason why the ghost mountain is called the ghost mountain, not because there are creatures called the ghost in the mountain, but because the owner of the mountain is a ghost, because the era when these words were used, you can obviously find that the naming of the place name, especially the owner's name of his place, is not named according to the local characteristics, which is completely different from now, because that time was an era of private ownership, in order to show their dignity and show their nobility, basically they will name their territory with themselves, so it should be said that this place belongs to the ghosts. It's just that no one knows what this ghost is. ”
Yu Jing and Yu Jie nodded, Li Xiaoyao also agreed a little, and the people of the engineering team were confused, so they could only pretend that they hadn't heard anything, and pretended to be dead next to them.
"But how did you recognize such words?" Li Xiaoyao asked.
Gu Qingniao smiled and said: "I used to work as a word inspector for the town guard, and I learned a little, and these three words are not strange words, they are very common in the literature. ”
Li Xiaoyao was relieved.
But he felt more and more that his efforts over the years were in vain. In order to solve the problem of this stone stele, I studied art in Kunlun Mountain for so many years, but after going down the mountain, I was at a loss, and because of this, I fell into confusion and almost couldn't get out.
As a result, Gu Qingniao saw the problem as soon as he came, and then quickly found the location of the space door, which really made Li Xiaoyao a little unacceptable.
And now the ancient blue bird is still very knowledgeable, although he doesn't know much, but these things on the road The ancient blue bird has the greatest credit, Li Xiaoyao began to doubt, is the so-called Kunlun really a holy place for human cultivation? What kind of state are those Xuanmen bigwigs on the mountain?
Most of the children they have cultivated, Li Xiaoyao has seen them, and they have not seen how good they are, and the belief that Kunlun is superior to others that they have always adhered to is simply bullshit, and they are worthless in front of the excellence of the ancient blue bird, which makes Li Xiaoyao a little confused again.
When Gu Qingniao looked at him, he knew that this person was stupid on the mountain, and he felt more and more that Kunlun Mountain was a place for pit people.
Indeed, I heard that there are many masters on Kunlun Mountain, I heard that the disciples of Kunlun Mountain are very good, and I heard that the people who come out of Kunlun Mountain are all masters.
But after all, I heard that I just heard, think about the current information age, and then look at these people on Kunlun Mountain, you will know that they have nothing to count on after all.
It's strange that people who have been cultivated in this way can become talents, and they don't even have the basic mental endurance. Today's society is not ancient, saying one is one and saying two is two, if you reason with people, people will reason with you, people's hearts are unpredictable, the world is uneasy, Li Xiaoyao came down from the mountain to live until now is a miracle.
So she patted Li Xiaoyao on the shoulder and said: "Don't think about it, you can't think of it, your thinking has been pressed under the Kunlun Mountain, only by climbing out of the Kunlun Mountain, can you see what the world is like, in order to know what you are wrong." ”
Li Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, didn't speak, just thought about it.
At this time, the people of the engineering team shouted: "Little boss, you must be careful!" ”
Gu Qingniao only looked over at this time, and saw that the two of them were already standing on both sides of the stone door frame, with flashlights shining downward, looking at the situation below. The ancient bluebird also looked down, and as a result, he saw the steps inside the stone cave.
Turning around, he said, "Be careful, it's too dangerous." ”
Yu Jing and Yu Jie cautiously walked up, glanced down, frightened their legs, and said, "The owner of this cave is a pervert, right?" ”
Li Xiaoyao also retracted the idea of going down to the cave easily, feeling that this idea was really not very humane.
All of them saw the string of steps that surrounded the stone walls of the cave, which could only pass through a man-wide stone staircase, and it was still suspended in the air, which looked dangerous. Best of all, there are no guardrails! There are no guardrails at all!
Gu Qingniao said with a wry smile: "I know, how could a master in ancient times have such a thing as a guardrail? I guess they won't be able to do anything if they jump from above. ”
"And that's not all." Li Xiaoyao said: "This step is very old, although the stone looks very hard, it is inevitable that there will be damage, if you go down rashly, if you step on the broken stone steps, you will fall directly and fall to your death." ”
Yu Jing said: "But we are not ancient masters, what should we do?" ”
At this time, the leader of the engineering team came in handy, he said: "We can go down tomorrow, we will send the machine in tonight, this cave is very straight and wide, it doesn't take much effort at all, and then we will make a stand here, put the hanging basket, and go directly to the bottom, without having to go up this step." ”
The ancient blue bird said that this was completely fine, although Li Xiaoyao was in a hurry, but he could only choose this, so they got in touch with the people on the ground and asked them to send the equipment down, and then they didn't plan to go out of the cave, so they directly found a spacious place to sit down and eat something.
They have prepared all kinds of things, with food and water, and after a while, people who come down from it with equipment, and also lay some sliding tracks along the way, so that they can use the rail car to pass through the cave, and the four or five hours journey is put on the rail car, which is only a little more than an hour.
Gu Qingniao felt more and more how rational it was to bring an engineering team.
It didn't take long for the people above to bring more food and water, as well as tents and sleeping bags so that they could rest at night.
The wires were pulled directly down, Gu Qingniao was amazed, she knew that these wires were estimated to cost a lot of money, and they sent the tracks and wires of these rail cars up the mountain, it was estimated that it took a lot of effort, it should be the reinforcements they brought from the outside after entering the cave.
It seems that the captain of the engineering team had long expected such a situation to happen, and he was really experienced and knowledgeable.
The drill was opened, holes were opened in the hard stone wall, and the iron shelves were installed, and then the hanging baskets, and when they did this, they were familiar with the road, and the shelves were also installed in all directions, and it didn't take long to install things.
Li Xiaoyao was eager to try, but the ancient bluebird and they all said that they were tired and didn't want to go down now, so she was able to wait, waited for a night, stared at the dark circles in the morning, and Li Xiaoyao finally waited for this exciting moment.
Gu Qingniao smiled and said, "You really can't bear it psychologically, didn't you just wait for a night?" Can't wait? ”
Li Xiaoyao smiled bitterly, feeling that Gu Qingniao was making fun of himself anytime and anywhere, and this kind of sarcasm made him have no way to refute it, but felt that what Gu Qingniao said was right, which made him very uncomfortable.
They finally got on the hanging basket, and every time there were two people, Li Xiaoyao didn't want to be with Gu Qingniao, and Yu Jie didn't want to be with Li Xiaoyao, so in the end, Li Xiaoyao and Yu Jing were in a group, and Gu Qingniao and Yu Jie were in a group, and they went down the cave in batches.
In fact, last night, the people from the engineering team had already gone down to see how deep it was.
But when it really came time to go down, the ancient bluebird thought.
That's too deep, right?
