Chapter Ninety-Six: A Secret Hidden in the Stone Wall

Discouraged, whether they were watching from the top of the cliff or moving to the river beach in front of the cliff wall, they all found that there was still a long distance between dream and reality.

At this time, it was already afternoon, and after seeing that the water level was getting higher and higher, and the foothold was getting smaller and smaller, everyone was forced to climb back to the mouth of the earthquake crack on the top of the steep cliff, and began to eat dried grilled fish with their heads down, and no one spoke.

Because the miracle that was expected to happen did not happen, which is a little disheartening.

"Shall we pour water on that stone wall?" Lu Wuyang asked while eating.

"Not feasible." Bai Yunfei categorically denied his idea: "It's meaningless, because that cliff wall is too tall and too big, first, we can't splash it all and can't form an overall picture, and second, don't forget, there is also that terrible snake body witch statue there, that is, we have infinite strength, we can splash water anywhere on the entire stone wall, but the purple cloud star stone alone can kill us all." The actions you are talking about cannot be done at all. ”

No one spoke again, for there was nothing to be done about the situation.

But at this moment, it was really beautiful, and the wind that had blown through the dense fog in the Wei King Valley and caused the ant colony to suddenly descend like a black wind frenzy began to blow again.

Bai Yunfei, who was chewing on grilled dried fish, suddenly stopped eating, raised his head sharply and stared ahead, then stretched out his hand and began to feel the oncoming wind.

"The wind is getting stronger, good, good, very good......," Bai Yunfei muttered.

Suddenly, he stood up and excitedly said to everyone: "If this wind continues to grow, my original idea will definitely come true!" ”

When he said this, everyone has understood the meaning of his words, that is, the stronger and stronger wind will blow the roaring "new life" waterfall like a flood directly onto the cliff stone wall, when the entire stone wall is wet, whether there is a mysterious mural guessed by Bai Yunfei on the stone wall, the answer can naturally be revealed.

The crowd was ecstatic, no longer enjoying the crispy, golden grilled dried fish, avoiding the "waterfall" section, and climbing down the steep slope to see what mysterious frescoes appeared on the stone walls.

At this time, the river beach was completely flooded, but the water level just exceeded the height of the human calf, and everyone was not afraid, so they rolled up their trouser legs and waded directly to the stone wall, keeping a certain safety distance from the snake witch statue, and observing the long-awaited changes.

However, nothing has changed.

Everyone looked at Bai Yunfei in disappointment.

Bai Yunfei's eyes were also full of regret, but his expression was calm.

"Ahh "Ahh Someone screamed one after another, and everyone immediately panicked, and then everyone began to scream and jump up in the water, only to see a few yellow, soft things attached to Bai Huahua's thighs, and it was this thing that made everyone scream.

"Get out of here, damn it, there's leeches in the water!" Wang Ziming's face was so painful that his face was already distorted, and he began to run wildly towards the way he came, splashing one

A large splash of water.

Everyone also screamed and ran after him, and when he reached the steep slope, Wang Ziming had already stopped and used a lighter to burn the leeches that had been bitten into his flesh.

Everyone did the same, and it took a long time to clean up these disgusting and horrible things.

"This is supposed to be the legendary iron hook locust, which is larger and more ferocious than ordinary grasshoppers, and like an iron hook, it is difficult to get out of the flesh. This is another eye-opener. Wang Ziming explained to everyone.

"It seems that your speculation is non-existent, so let's continue to explore." Cao Longxuan glanced at Bai Yunfei with a flat expression, although his face was expressionless, there seemed to be a sarcastic meaning in it.

Bai Yunfei didn't say anything, and no one spoke, so everyone began to silently pack their backpacks and began to climb towards the artificial canal embankment on the top of the mountain.

Just after walking a few steps, Bai Yunfei looked back, turned back and continued to walk, but still stopped, and finally said: "We can't just leave, I have a strong hunch, there should be unexpected clues here." ”

"Your hunch ........" Cao Longxuan didn't say anything more, just glanced at Bai Yunfei very meaningfully.

Bai Yunfei didn't care about Cao Longxuan's opinion anymore, but just said to everyone who was looking at him: "Give me more than twenty-four hours, less than half a day's work, I have to wait, if there is no change, it will not be too late for us to leave." ”

Everyone, including Cao Longxuan, no one refuted his request, everyone once again focused on the mouth of the earthquake crack, looked at the river rushing down from the top of the mountain in front of them, listened to the roaring waterfall, and handed over time to Bai Yunfei.

But after a short time, the amount of artificial water flowing on the top of the mountain began to gradually decrease, and everyone looked at each other in surprise, and began to climb the mountain again.

It turned out to be a boulder and gravel that fell into the river after the blasting, which was washed away by the water pressure that had been silted up for a long time, and the water-blocking "embankment" of the "dammed lake" formed by the blasting was washed open, and more and more water began to pour down, and the water level began to drop, and gradually no more water flowed down the "hat brim cliff".

So everyone climbed down the steep slope again despite fatigue, and at this time the river beach was slowly revealed, and they were no longer afraid of the damage of the iron hook locusts, and everyone came to the front of the cliff again.

The long-awaited change, yet to come.

Bai Yunfei's face was expressionless, and he only said one word: "Wait." Then he unloaded his rucksack and sat on the damp river beach, waiting for the miracle he had foreseen.

It was not until the dead of night that the stone wall, which had been seen countless times, remained unchanged, and everyone was disappointed to climb back to the mouth of the earthquake crack on the top of the steep cliff, ready to spend the night here again, after all, it was already late at night, and the new environment may not be as safe as here.

So they gathered some dead branches, lit a bonfire, and camped here.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, when it was just dawn, before everyone woke up from their sleep, they heard a high-pitched shout suddenly sound, and they were so frightened that they were sleeping

A few of them who slept in the cracks of the earthquake hit their heads and were dizzy in pain.

"Come on, come and see, there are really paintings!" Only then did everyone hear it clearly, and they also saw clearly that the person who shouted was Bai Yunfei.

Needless to say, he must have run to the cliff early in the morning to see if there was any change after the night.

Hearing him shout so excitedly, the crowd rushed down the steep slope with all their might.

"Oh my God!"

Everyone was stunned.

I saw that on the cliff wall, there was a "mural" as big as the entire stone wall:

What is shown on the screen is the black pattern of "Ghost Eagle Serving the Snake Queen to Drink Blood", of course, everyone can only see that it is this snake body witch shown above, and there is an ugly-looking, hideous eagle, after Su Lao Ghost explained, only to know that this kind of eagle only exists in the legend of ghosts and gods, known as "Ghost Eagle".

The eagle had a headless corpse in its beak, and from the neck of the corpse flowed bright red blood, dripping into the witch's mouth, making her drink human blood, so that she could maintain her beautiful face and incomparably powerful witchcraft forever.

At this point, everyone has to admire Bai Yunfei's accuracy of premonition, and at the same time wonder why such a mural appeared on this huge stone wall after being washed away by the draining river?

In order to find out the truth, everyone carefully avoided the snake witch, kept a distance from the purple cloud star stones on her body, and then slowly approached this cliff stone wall within a safe range.

In the middle of the mural, you don't dare to go past it, but the picture showing the tail of the snake is located on the side of the stone wall, so you can observe it up close.

"What is this?" Everyone almost lay on the stone wall, and after a closer look, they seemed to see what it was, but they were a little unsure.

"That's right, that's a snail." Wang Ziming said with certainty: "The blood flowing from the headless corpse above is a red 'slug'. ”

After receiving Wang Ziming's affirmative reply, everyone was even more surprised, why can these small insects form such a weird and evil picture so densely?

"The ancients were so clever that even those of us who have received the cultural education of the modern high-tech era are beyond the reach of the dust." Wang Ziming praised from the bottom of his heart:

"The black snake queen and the ghost eagle are all formed by a moss-eating snail crawling all over the moss, and the headless human corpse in the beak of the ghost eagle is formed by the red 'slug' crawling all over the neck. The ancients planted a kind of magical moss on this huge stone wall, these mosses are naturally very popular with these insects, after encountering the water flow, the moss that has dried up for thousands of years is blistered alive, and these insects come to eat the moss, and the picture is reproduced. ”

Bai Yunfei also praised: "Not only that, the wisdom of the ancient people lies in the fact that if you look at the terrain here, even if it is wind and rain, you can't get these mosses, because there is a 'hat brim' type protruding terrain on the cliff, and the rain flowing from it can't be on the stone wall at all, even if there is a strong wind when it rains, but because of the rain

The water droplets are small, at most they are drenched on the bottom half of the stone wall, and although snails and slugs may come to feed after the rain, only a part of the snake's tail is visible, and no pattern can be seen at all. ”

Bai Yunfei continued: "But the canal water poured down like a flood, it was different, under the action of the strong wind just now, and the water washed away the thick soil and vegetation on the top of the 'hat brim', a row of artificial gaps in the 'hat brim' close to the stone wall was revealed, and the water seeped down directly from there, and the stone wall that had not been washed by water for thousands of years would revive the moss, and it would always attract these insects, and the strange picture would emerge one by one. ”

"Oh my God! It's amazing," Li Yulan exclaimed.

"But what game were the ancients playing? Isn't this a deliberate reminder for those of us millennia from now? What is their intention? Han Debang and others began to wonder and talked about it.

"It's not clear, they definitely want to hint at something, but they don't dare to be too obvious, for fear of being discovered, because what are they afraid of......" Bai Yunfei thought for a moment, suddenly widened his eyes, and guessed: "For example, those sheep-headed people!" ”

Everyone understood what Bai Yunfei meant, according to what they know now, thousands of years ago, after Wei Zhenliang's death, the powerful creatures they researched, the sheep head people, because they were too smart, not only were they not used as animals, but they subverted their regime and destroyed the Immortal Beast Kingdom.

"Then why do you want to give us outsiders who are considered to have invaded?" Lu Wuyang asked Bai Yunfei.

Bai Yunfei smiled, patted Lu Wuyang's shoulder, and said: "Wuyang, you think too much, maybe people are for their offspring, such as people who live in seclusion in the edge villages, let's not be too narcissistic, haha." ”

Lu Wuyang also smiled, he thought that Bai Yunfei's guess was correct nine times out of ten.
