Beneath the poplar tree lies a boxy reinforced concrete building that looks like a huge workshop. It was so large that it filled almost the entire courtyard and was covered at the back of the adjacent hill.

The combination of a large workshop and a small yard creates a special sense of oppression. Standing in front of the workshop, the man felt as if he was facing the shell of a dead prehistoric beast.

The workshop has a long depth and a large ceiling. Although the wall next to the door is still sprayed with the red paint words "Confidential land, idlers are not allowed to enter", but probably too long, this place has long been deserted, so the door of the workshop is not locked, only an iron chain hastily wraps around the handles of the two iron doors, which does not look like "confidential" at all.

Shen Yu walked to the front of the iron door and stretched out his hand to untie the iron chain, apparently wanting to enter. I hurried over.

"Let me do it."

First, I thought the chain was too heavy, and second, I saw that the chain was full of oil stains—in the morning we had already dug sand and pits in the bed of the Zhulong River, and our bodies were as sloppy as terracotta warriors. I finally found a chance to wash my hands, and I was reluctant to let her get dirty anymore.

The chain was wrapped around the doorknob four or five times, and it took me a long time to get it off because it was so long. I pulled the chain to the side and pushed the door open.

The sun shines into the workshop, and thick dust billows in the air. I choked and took a few steps back.

Puff la la la -

There was a strange sound from inside, which scared me out. Shen Yu walked up quickly, she pointed to a pillar of light through the workshop and said, "There is a skylight above, the glass is broken, it is estimated that a bird has flown in." ”

"What is this place?"

"A place to do experiments."

"Such a big lab?"

"I guess I'm debugging the equipment - my dad used to work here."

"Did you come here a lot before?" I asked.

Shen Yu shook his head: "How come?" It was a secret place, I only went once when I was a kid, but I came there many times when I grew up—because the things had been emptied. ”

I couldn't help but wonder - why hadn't she taken me to see the place where the black ship had been witnessed until now? It's not early now, and I have to catch the evening high-speed train back to Weiyang today.

Shen Yu seemed to read my thoughts, she pointed to the huge space of the black hole in front of her and said, "This is the place where I bumped into the black ship when I was a child. ”

"What?" I was surprised and my jaw almost dropped, "Here? Black ships? ”

I have the impression that ships must float on the water, even shipyards and dockyards will be built on the shores of rivers and seas. But this is the mountainside, halfway up more than 200 meters above sea level—has anyone ever seen a ship coming up the hillside?

However, when you think about it, it may not come as a surprise.

The black ship was originally a bizarre event. Since it is bizarre, it is unreasonable, and it may not be unreasonable to think that something that is unreasonable appears in a place that is not normal......

"Did you see the Black Ship in this building?" I asked again.

Shen Yu didn't speak, she walked into the door of the workshop, beckoned to me and said, "You come with me." ”

I had to follow her in.

The workshop was empty, with only a few desks, chairs, and cabinets scattered around for office. However, the light from the surrounding windows and skylights can still be faintly discerned from the indentations on the ground where the giant machine once was placed.

"What experiments were you doing here?"

"Secret experiments. Permits are required to enter and exit this yard, and even the people in the factory do not understand what they are doing. My dad is also tight-lipped about people and never reveals anything to anyone. So, I still don't know what they're doing, but it seems to have something to do with electricity. ”

Because there is a lot of space and few obstacles, her voice seems echoically rumbling.

I pointed to the machine indentations and asked, "There used to be a lot of big machines in here, right?" ”

"Yes, dense, dense bunch of machines." She looked at me and smiled and said, "Now you're going to have a glimpse of it and want to be a whole leopard." ”

"Heck, it's mainly with the right person." I scratched my head in embarrassment and said, "I wondered, if this place is full of machines, how can there be room for the next huge black ship?" ”

"Hah, don't you think it's incredible?"

I nodded.

"But the reality is more bizarre than you can imagine."

Shen Yu waved at me and motioned for me to continue walking with her. She led me to the other end of the workshop, where there was a narrow little door with an iron rod stuck in the clasp and was also unlocked.

Shen Yu pulled the iron rod away, then pushed open the small door and walked out, and I hurriedly followed.

I was surprised to find that when I stepped out of the small gate, there was an arcing valley that sunk into the mountain. The rocks on both sides of the valley have apparently been cut into the valley and appear to be neat, and the ground is leveled. Several bare high-voltage poles stand on the hillside.

I looked left and right and saw that the high walls of the courtyard also extended to both sides of the valley, completely cutting it off from the outside.

The strangest thing is that there is also a huge spherical iron cage in this arc-shaped valley.

The iron cage was about ten meters high, and there was a door more than one meter high on the iron cage.

I walked to the cage and looked at the wire net, and found it empty.

"What is this cage used for?" I asked Shen Yudao.

I couldn't help but have a bizarre image in my mind, a giant beast imprisoned in this large iron cage, constantly whispering and roaring......

"I don't know what I've shut down, maybe it's something to do with the experiment. At that time, they couldn't say, and our families couldn't ask. Shen Yu explained, "However, when I broke in by mistake, the inside of the iron cage was as empty as it is now, but the iron net is not so old." ”

Shen Yu patted the iron cage with her hand, and the metal mesh of the cage made a "sonorous" sound, but she didn't stay here for long, and soon, she took me around the iron cage and continued to walk towards the arc-shaped valley.

The valley was still empty. The two of us walked about two or three hundred steps, and Shen Yu suddenly stopped, she raised her head and looked high.

Following her gaze, I saw a huge white stone on the mountain above, juggling out of it, as if it were an ornament embedded in the mountain.

Unlike the surrounding slopes with abundant vegetation, the white rocks are clean and clean, and no grass grows.

"Did you see that? They call it the 'Great White Stone', and it's only from this angle that you can see it. Shen Yu added.

"Is that stone artificial, or natural?" I asked.

"Naturally protruding." Shen Yu looked at the stone, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

"Can you believe it? That's where I was when I was a kid, and all of a sudden, I saw the black ship standing squarely on top of the big white rock. ”

"What?" I stared at the tall stone with wide eyes, "Black ship, over there?!" ”

She paused, then continued, "Yes. And, only I've seen it. ”
