Chapter 15: Homecoming

Seeing the scene in front of them, all three of them understood.

The incomprehensible weather encountered by Xia Long's adventure team that year, sometimes heavy rain, sometimes heavy snow, sometimes hail, was caused by these strange insects.

This shows that Xia Long's adventure team back then, like An Ran and the three of them, also encountered strange insects.

It's even weirder.

Since he encountered a strange insect, such a bizarre thing, why didn't Xia Long record it? Or is the account of the strange insect in the part of the note that is destroyed?

They don't have time to analyze these problems now, because the strange insects above the canyon are gathering more and more, and the light rain has turned into moderate rain. If you don't hurry, it will turn into heavy rain or even torrential rain.

The three of them hurriedly slid down the mountain, which was faster. After a while, the three of them came to the valley, which was very large and full of dense forests.

Fortunately, there are a lot of strange insects, and they can be seen even in the dense forest, which is just right to point them in the direction.

The three of them braved the rain and walked through the dense forests of the valley. The mouth of the falling dragon was in front of them, and they were all a little excited, and they didn't feel tired when they ran quickly.

The closer you get to the mouth of the falling dragon, the heavier the rain becomes, and the colder it gets. By the time it was close to the mouth of the falling dragon, it was already pouring rain, which was very consistent with Xia Long's description in his notes.

I don't know how long they ran wildly, but the three of them finally crossed the valley, and in front of them was the grand canyon between the two mountains.

The three of them stood in front of the canyon and suddenly stopped, looking at the canyon in surprise.

The peaks on both sides of the canyon are towering into the sky, and the cliffs are so straight that at a glance, the canyon looks like a huge silver pillar soaring into the sky.

Not to mention in reality, even in TV magazines, Enron has never seen such a spectacular Grand Canyon. The pouring rain cascades down like a waterfall, making the entire canyon look foggy and mysterious.

"My dear!"

Wang Shengli opened his mouth wide and let the rain pour into his mouth, his eyes already straight.

Xia Bing also gasped and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect that there would be such a big canyon in a place like Broken Dragon Mountain, it's incredible." ”

Wasn't Enron so shocked that he couldn't speak?

To be honest, when An Ran saw the whole canyon at first glance, his first reaction was, which ancient god did this sword cut out this grand canyon on the mountain range?

The cause of the formation of the canyon is nothing more than wind erosion, or the erosion of rivers.

But wind erosion requires a dry and barren environment, but here is a dense deep mountain forest, and even the stronger winds can't blow in, let alone wind erosion.

There is no river in sight in the canyon, and it is surrounded by mountains, let alone the current of the water.

So when Enron saw the whole picture of the canyon, he felt that it didn't look like it was formed naturally, but more like it was caused by man.

But is it possible to create such a large and deep canyon by man? Enron was deeply skeptical.

"Strange, there is no wind, no water, how did this canyon form?"

Gradually, Wang Shengli also reacted, since he dared to take risks, he still had some basic common sense.

Xia Bing also nodded and said, "Yes, there are no conditions for forming a canyon here, is this canyon really built by man?" But it is a miracle to carve out such a huge canyon on such a towering mountain! ”

An Ran looked carefully and saw that the cliff wall of the canyon was covered with trees and vines, and the color of the entire cliff wall was also very dark, and he couldn't help but say: "It's not just a miracle, it's a miracle!" ”

"If you look at the plants on the cliffs, they are all very slow-growing plants, and they have been growing on the cliffs for at least a hundred years."

"Looking at the color of the cliff rocks, if the canyon is excavated, and the bare rocks turn into this dark color on their own, it will take at least a thousand years, right?"

As soon as An Ran said it, Xia Bing and Wang Shengli immediately looked at the rocks on the cliff, and sure enough, it was as An Ran said. The surface of the rock has been eroded and smooth, and the color of the rock surface has become very dark due to the wind and sun all year round.

If the canyon was really excavated, it was at least a thousand years ago.

"What a joke!"

Wang Shengli blocked the rain with his hands, looked up at the top of the mountain, shook his head again and again, and said, "This is impossible, absolutely impossible!" Even modern high-tech means cannot blow up such a spectacular canyon with explosives. More than 1,000 years ago, there were no explosives, and they all relied on manual excavation, so how many thousands of people would have to complete it? ”

How many thousands?

Enron estimated that it would take a million craftsmen to dig the Grand Canyon in ten years.

But it now stood in this seemingly impossible place, which puzzled the three of them.

"Huh? The rain has stopped! ”

When the three of them were discussing the canyon, the rainstorm suddenly stopped, but the water vapor was still in the canyon, and it was foggy, and it was impossible to see the specific situation in the canyon.

But An Ran clearly felt that after the rain stopped, the temperature plummeted, and the breeze became biting cold, gently blowing on the body, the pores immediately closed, and the whole body couldn't help but shiver.

He hurriedly looked up to see the strange insects hovering above the canyon, and found that the strange insects had all gathered over the canyon. They begin to rotate clockwise, forming a huge vortex in the air.

"Look, those bugs have fallen into the canyon!"

Wang Shengli pointed to the vortex formed by the strange insects and shouted.

An Ran looked over and found that from the middle part of the vortex, the strange insects fell vertically, in a continuous stream, looking like a mid-water spout, forming a column.

The worm pillar fell into the canyon and disappeared.

An Ran could feel that the temperature was getting lower and lower, lower than when the strange insects gathered over the canyon just now.

However, An Ran felt that his feet didn't seem to be so cold, so he leaned down and reached out to touch the ground.

The ground is actually warm.

That is, cold air comes down from the sky, not from the earth.

An Ran still remembered that when the temple was broken, after those strange insects appeared, the ground immediately began to freeze, and soon a layer of frost appeared on the ground.

And at that time, there were only about a hundred and so strange insects.

But now, those strange insects have entered the canyon in such a large area, and the plants in the canyon are not frozen, and the frost is invisible, which is also too strange!

Suddenly, An Ran's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "These strange insects are about to return to the nest, but before they return to the nest, they must release all their cold air!" ”

Wang Shengli was stunned: "What will happen then?" ”

"How?" An Ran smiled bitterly: "The temperature of the high air has dropped suddenly, and it is far below freezing, and now there is plenty of water vapor in the high air, what do you think will happen?" ”

"Snap"

Before the words fell, something fell from the sky, and it happened to land in the open space between An Ran and Wang Shengli.

When the two of them looked at it, it was a fist-sized hailstone, which frightened their faces almost green.

An Ran hurriedly shouted: "I don't want to be killed like Hu Yue in the note, so hurry up and find a place to hide!" ”
