In order to verify the purpose of the worm, I deliberately withdrew my hand that was about to climb upward, and instead extended it to the groove in the stone wall on the other side;

And the result was exactly as I expected, the same leap, the same block, the same open mouth at me as a sign of intimidation;

The relationship between a man and a group of giant strange worms changed subtly, and although I didn't understand why, they never attacked again;

This attitude of peaceful coexistence made me feel a lot of relief in my heart, and I even wondered if I should just go on these earthen jars in order to speed up my journey, and no longer shy away from whether there were any mechanisms in the jars, but every time I looked back vigilantly and saw those giant red worms that were still glowing spontaneously, I immediately dispelled this thought;

This is not because I am afraid of destroying their earthen pot mansions, but I am really worried about whether my recklessness will provoke unnecessary incidents, after all, "forced demolition" will be resisted and retaliated against wherever it is placed;

The light emitted by each giant red worm was soft, even dim, but the light emitted by thousands of insects gathered in such a narrow gap not only dazzled me, but even made me a little dizzy;

But when I adjusted my body back to the position I had just entered the gap (I don't know how to describe the position I am in right now), the insect light happened to be facing away from me, making it very easy for me to see everything around me, which made me move much faster;

There was a disgusting fishy smell in the gap, which could not be smelled outside the gap, I hung and climbed for a long time, and even I didn't know how much time had passed, and the fishy smell had smoked me almost dizzy, until I was in a position about half the distance between the gaps, and I found that on the same side of the earthen kiln jar under me, there would be a slightly abrupt open space in stages, the open space was very small, only half a meter square at most, and the broken shells of countless insects were curled up horizontally and vertically above the clearing, all over the place, This makes people feel sick all over the body in an instant;

The first thing I feel at first glance is that these giant red worms have shed their skin, but if I look closely, I don't think it's right, because there is no color on these shells, but they are completely milky white and clumped, and they don't seem to be complete, most of the parts seem to have been torn alive by some creature, only the mouth of the worm remains, like a huge eyeball staring at me on the ground, it is really worrying, which makes me have to tell myself several times in my heart, it is just a corpse of a worm, not an eyeball, Not eyeballs!

The appearance of this kind of thing made me deliberately avoid looking at the space on my right, and even when I needed to rest when my back fell on the earthen kiln jar, I tried to avoid this kind of open space, and I couldn't help but curse the founder of this place;

"Damn, what are you people trying to do? I have nothing to do all my life to create such a place to toss people! I gritted my back molars and muttered to myself;

But as soon as I got close to the exit of the gap, the curse began to revert back to fear, for I found that beyond the exit of the gap, there was a light as I had seen when I first entered the gap, and it was not the soft light of the giant red bug or the light bird itself, but a very obvious "firelight", a pale green fire that shot into my pupils, and I could even see that the fire was beating wantonly with the rhythm of the dark wind and my pulse in the cave!

"Anyone? I am Chinese, there is no malice, I have no weapons", more than ten meters away from the exit, I took the dagger from my mouth, pulled my neck and shouted outside the exit, this shout resounded throughout the gap, deafening, and then turned back to the silence before, and even those glowing giant red worms deliberately stopped coming, but stayed honestly five or six meters away from me;

A few minutes passed by the silence......

“Anyone here? I'm Chinese, no malice, I have no weapons", I tried to change the language;

Still silent......

“Alguém? EU sou chinês, SEM maldade, EU não tenho UMA ARMA", Portuguese;

Could it be that these were built by the German legacy of the Second World War?

I thought to myself not to be guessed, but I tried again: "IST da jemand? Ich bin nicht böse， ich bin unbewaffnet”；

The exit of the gap was still silent, which brought me into an awkward position of neither advancing nor retreating, but the flickering green flame made it abundantly clear that there must be someone there, and it must be a person or a group of people waiting for me, but I don't know whether he or them, whether they are holding weapons or flowers.

This embarrassing situation lasted for half an hour, but when I actually stood in this semi-confined space extending from the gap with the dagger, I found that there were no weapons, no flowers, and not even half a long-legged or non-legged living creature to serve;

The ethereal fire seen from the outside is actually the sixteen oil lamps lit around this semi-open cave, three of which have been extinguished, and the grease has dried up, I don't know how many years such oil lamps have burned, and the stone lamp trough integrated with the stone wall shows a turquoise color under the light of the light, and the wick twisted into the oil cotton silk wood and the grease poured into the fine round holes on the stone wall make the oil lamp last for a long time, illuminating the entire cave at 360 degrees without dead ends like nine netherworlds;

And in the center of the cave, a three-layered, two-person high, three-meter diameter metal prototype monster "sitting" on the ground steadily, its size to my visual impact is too shocking, like three suspended, with a rugby ball-sized tooth convex cylindrical grinding disc in the middle, by a three or four people closed thick column through the connection, each weird grinding disc is engraved with many strange lines, like a lotus? But it's not like it, I can't describe it well, the lines don't exist in the world I know, whether it's religious legends or the animals and plants that exist in the real world;

The two thigh-thick stone chains that were hung into the cave through the gap from the outside were firmly wound around the central layer of the circular grinding disc, hanging there without moving, until I went closer to find that these stone chains were actually through a lot of smaller hook-shaped protrusions on the grinding disc, in order to be firmly tied to the grinding disc, long-term friction made the surface of the grinding disc bright but did not see any wear, I don't know what kind of metal material this thing is made of, the hook-shaped protrusion is even more staggered distribution, Each one just hooks a hole in a stone chain, and the design is exquisite;

But if I say shock, none of the above I found anything I saw next was far less than what I saw next;

Just as I was concentrating on distinguishing the patterns on the grinding disc and trying to find some valuable clues, I suddenly found that the cylinder in the middle of the millstone was actually rotating in one direction, and the speed was extremely slow, so slow that if you didn't pay attention to the lines, you wouldn't feel it moving at all;

Two of the three grinding discs attached to it are actually rotating with the metal cylinder up and down, and if you look closely, you will find that the two grinding discs rotate in opposite directions but at uniform speed;

Just when I wanted to take a look upside down, a stone chain with thick legs suddenly made a soft "bang" sound as if it was hooked by the top grinding disc;

Then, on top of my head, slowly, slowly, the grinding disc was gradually pulled straight!
