Chapter 58: The Origin of the Sword
This experience was simply the most incredible experience of my life, completely subverting my perception of water as a substance, who would have thought that I, a big living person, could bring water to such a high place?
Except for a few minor injuries on our bodies, we didn't have much to do, and although we had a lot of confusion about the structure below, we didn't have the energy to analyze it. Under the pressure of the whole lake, more and more water is coming up from below. Fortunately, the place is big and the water does not rise fast, but we also have to leave as soon as possible, and I am afraid that we will not be able to run if it is too late.
Surrounded by countless black rocks mixed with a lot of dirt, I felt that this place was very familiar, but I didn't know where I had seen it. When I was in a daze, Liu Shiwu pulled me violently, "Don't be stunned, go quickly!" ”
Only then did I come back to my senses, and then I saw that Lu Yan and Wang Dake had already rushed to the side of the cliff, and the protrusion of the rock wall here was not difficult to climb, but there was a small road over there, and the plank road generally turned up. Liu and I were a few steps behind, and they were waiting for us when we passed. This plank-like path is about two meters wide, and the steps are like washboards, as if they were artificially built but they don't, zigzag and go upward.
This kind of road is the most difficult to climb, the teeth under the feet can't bite the ground at all, Wang Dake's shoes have non-slip teeth, put it down at this time, and bite the stones under his feet into white marks one by one. Little Adam got out of his backpack and ran neatly with his little injured leg.
The water outside had risen quite high, and from time to time there were still small snakes and other small animals swimming in the water, and the jet of water that sprayed up was finally so thick that it could not fit into the cracks, and spread along the cracks, forming a wall of water, and I looked at all this, and suddenly remembered the dreamlike wall of water that surrounded the hill last time!
This must be the hill! I called out to Liu and told him what I had found. Liu Dongxi's eyes widened, "It's really similar, but I don't know which side we climbed." ”
I didn't think about this, last time I thought this water wall was a natural formation, after seeing the miracle in the mountain, I felt that it should be used to prohibit some kind of immortal law, but I never thought that it was a mechanical power, originally because of the disaster, the underground structure was destroyed, this water wall has disappeared, but after we hit it by mistake, it sprayed out again, but maybe that delicate balance has been destroyed, or there are still many water outlets that have not been opened, this water wall is no longer the grand occasion of the past, and it seems to be uncomfortable.
What's the use of spending so much effort to get such a thing? I thought about it for a long time, but I really didn't come up with anything else but being good-looking. It is indeed very useful to defend against foreign invasions, but this effect is no more useful than a city wall. Supposedly, this kind of thing also requires a cost, and the huge cost of building a wall is nothing compared to this, and there must be some reason to do so, but I can't think of it.
Although the ground is very slippery and the water is slowly rising, it will definitely not catch up with our way forward, since it is on this mountain, then the water level will not rise above the lake, this mountain is much higher than the lake, so we are not worried.
I'm still very interested in the experience of coming up the water column just now, and I'm looking for Liu to inquire. It turned out that when he first ran, Liu Dongxi fixed a rope on the ground without thinking of anything, and when the water column was up, this guy tied the two pieces of fur together and wore the rope inside. The reason why the fur side is facing outward is because the fur surface of this fur is protected from water, but the leather surface is extremely hydrophilic. When we were about to be drowned, Liu Dongxi threw the tied skin into the water, the fur avoided the water, and the buoyancy was extremely great, and the water column rose very violently, and the two phases moved, and the fur rose like a moving pulley, pulling the rope and us on the rope up.
As for how to bring us up, Liu Dongxi's explanation is not so reliable, only saying that the hydrophilia inside the fur can suck us on the water column, and the water-repellent fur provides the rising power, so it brings us here from the ground.
There are many things that can't resist scrutiny in Liu Dongxi's explanation, but this is how we escaped. I pondered for myself, and without asking any more questions, I suddenly felt a strong light coming over me, and we had climbed up the mountain.
A circle of rock walls around the mountain is just like a pen holder to clean this hill into it, there is a drop of more than ten meters from the lake outside, we stand on the mountain, the mountain outside is far away and the lake is clear, and the sun shines quite freehand. And this water somehow still has momentum, high above the lake has been a lot of still rising, and finally a loud sound from the pen holder poured out, the water wall also collapsed in it, leaving only a sparkling bay of clear water to outline this circle of mountains and rocks smoothly. There is a thrilling beauty in the tranquility.
Everyone was stunned, only Lu Yan popped out a sentence, "Are you still leaving?" ”
Naturally, I want to go, but where to go? With water all around, and only one way up the mountain, are we going to go back to that tree and fight that terrible monster? The relaxed mood of escaping before was suddenly swept away, and only the despair of the road ahead remained.
Liu Dongshi obviously knew what I was thinking, and said, "You may not know the situation inside, let me tell you a brief......
What followed was a detailed explanation, Wang Dake's eyes lit up, and he frequently looked at the fixed light sword at my waist. I was desperately trying to remember it, trying to find clues to escape from it.
In the end, Liu Dongxi said: "At this point, it is completely impossible to get out of the water, we can only go in and find a way, look at me after speaking, and maybe we can find the stone bones inside!" ”
I was stunned for a long time, although I didn't want to admit it, but what Liu Dongxi said was our only way out. Lu Yan and Wang Dake also agreed, and we sat down on the spot, ready to rest, replenish our strength, and make final preparations.
While chewing a little energy bar, I rearranged the contents of the bag, little Adam ran around and played, completely innocent and carefree childlike, I looked at it and was distracted, remembering the last time and Liu Shi, it was also here to rest, in one fell swoop to open the door to this disaster, I don't know if we can find a way to close this door when we go in this time.
Wang Dake suddenly interrupted my thoughts, "Fourth brother, where did your sword come from?" ”
I was stunned for a moment and didn't come back to my senses, she asked again, and I said, "Oh, you said this, I picked it up in the mountains." ”
"Can I take a look?"
"There was really nothing to refuse such a request, so I drew my sword from its sheath, turned the hilt upside down, and handed it to her."
The sword was a gem in my hands, because I didn't see it as a collection to play with, but as a tool, so I adapted it to the liking of the attack, including a k-scabbard and a layer of glue for a badminton racket wrapped around the hilt. So after Wang Dake took it, he first frowned, looked disappointed, and only after playing for a long time did he exclaim, "This sword ......"
I didn't pay attention, and I didn't even look at her and casually asked, "What's wrong with this sword?" But I saw Liu Dongxi on the other side looking at Wang Dake!
What's going on?
