Chapter 5 Wu Ze's skills
The sound of the water is getting louder and louder, which means that the underground flood is getting closer and closer, and it will not be long before the raging front waves can be seen.
At this time, everyone had already rushed to the bottom of a cliff, but the wet and slippery stone wall was not easy to climb, seeing that the flood was about to rush, Wu Ze's head was a little out of judgment, could it be that he was going to die here today?
Fortunately, since he was a child, with his deceased grandfather, he faced life and death several times, Wu Ze quickly calmed down again, there must be a way to avoid the flood, and the rest of the people were hurriedly climbing up, but the speed was extremely slow, I am afraid that before they could climb two meters, the waves would come over and swallow them.
Boom, boom, huge waves crashing against the bend of the river beach, making a burst of sound!
The faces of the people were pale, and some of them were there.
At this moment, Wu Ze's voice sounded: "Don't be in a daze, hurry up and run towards me, there is an exit!" ”
Hearing Wu Ze shouting like this, the people who had already begun to panic immediately ran in the direction where he was, and they didn't have time to think about it at all, and when they looked up at Wu Ze's location, there was indeed a cave on the cliff wall above.
Although the entrance is not large, it can fully accommodate a train, and there are obvious signs of carving and explosion, so it can be judged that it was dug out by hand, and it should be the joint on this side of the railroad track that disappeared into the cliff before.
Unable to care about much, Wu Ze took three steps and made two steps, one of them ran up, jumped up, and tightly grasped a protruding rock, and then he climbed up with a flip with a hard hand.
"Everybody, come up!"
Wu Ze then threw down the rope and pulled everyone up one by one, and after everyone stood still, they found that the rock was still some distance away from the entrance of the cave, and the water below had begun to rise, so Wu Ze was not given more time to think about it.
He jumped up violently, and with the help of the recoil force of the opposite stone wall, he rolled and scurried upward, and when he was about to fall, his right hand rose up, and he climbed the cliff wall, and then he stood up to the entrance of the cave.
Everyone was stunned, the guy with an unknown reputation in this team was so good that he couldn't find out where he could find out compared to the missing Li Huaishan.
"Who is this guy?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"Touching the heirs of gold, Wu Huaiyuan's grandson!" Li Weimin said.
Sun Ruhai was a little surprised, he persuaded Wu Ze to participate in this event at first, but it was because Wu Huaiyuan's status in the tomb robbery was extremely high, Wu Ze was Wu Huaiyuan's only grandson, and he may have learned Wu Huaiyuan's tricks and a half, but he didn't expect Wu Ze to be so good, and it was a little more than expected.
Wu Ze was scratched by the protruding rocks in many places on his body at the moment, and he was bloody for a while, but now he didn't care about the pain, he hurriedly stood up, took off the two safety ropes on his back and threw them down, and Bruce, who was standing on the rock, quickly climbed up as soon as he grabbed it.
Fortunately, everyone is a veteran, although the skills are not necessarily very strong, but at the fatal moment, the climbing speed is not slow at all, and when the flood floods the rocks, everyone climbs up.
It's just that the bodies of the three victims were swept away by the flood all at once.
But this is also a helpless thing, at this time, there is no way to pay attention to so much.
Bang! The surging waves crashed against the cliffs on both sides, flooding with endless foam.
Everyone sat on the ground, all weak, with a wry smile on their faces, but when they looked at Wu Ze again, everyone's faces were a little admired, this guy was not good-looking, but he saved everyone's lives at the critical moment.
Only Jiang Yan, looking at Wu Ze's expression and starting to be cold again, it is really the most difficult to figure out a woman's heart.
"Xiao Wu, I'm not wrong, it seems that you have indeed learned a lot of skills from the old man!"
Wu Ze didn't speak, his grandfather Wu Huaiyuan, in the tomb robbery industry, is really not an ordinary person.
"Brother Ze, are you okay?" Luo Fatzi asked with a concerned face.
"It's nothing just skin trauma, the root of the thigh, can Miss Li help me bandage it gently!" Wu Ze was shy and looked at Jiang Yan.
"Do it yourself!" Looking at the hot eyes, Jiang Yan turned her head angrily.
Sun Ruhai was a little annoyed, but after all, he had just praised him, and he was embarrassed to reprimand Wu Ze again.
"I'd better do it!"
Although Luo Fatzi's body is fat, his movements are very neat, and he seems to be very familiar with Wu Ze's body structure.
Wu Ze had many abrasions on his body, although the bleeding had stopped, but it was still painful.
Listening to the turbulent underground flood under the cliff, constantly washing the rocks, everyone sat on the ground and rested for more than ten minutes before coming back to their senses.
"Look at what is flowing in the water, it's so white and dense!" Luo Fat Man suddenly spoke.
"Damn, chubby for nothing, like a lot of dead pigs? No......" One of Sun Ruhai's subordinates suddenly turned green, and his teeth chattered.
In the underground dark river, flowing in front of everyone's eyes, there were hundreds of densely packed corpses!
Everyone's faces changed, why are there so many corpses underground!
Fortunately, the speed of the water was fast enough, and the corpses that had been run white quickly disappeared.
"Why did the current swell so suddenly? Even if there is a sudden rainstorm on the ground, it is impossible for the underground river to attack so quickly. Sun Ruhai's face was also green, but in order to appease everyone's emotions, he had to change the topic.
Li Weimin, who claims to be an underground expert, thought for a while and said: "It is estimated that there is a lagoon upstream of this underground river, which discharges floodwaters from time to time, otherwise all this will not make sense." ”
"It seems that the structure of this underground water system is very complicated!"
Li Weimin then sighed: "Even if there is a lagoon, the amount of water discharged after the water is full cannot be so large, it is like a tidal situation, it seems that the water rise time of the underground dark river is shorter than we imagined!" ”
"What? You say it's the tide? Everyone was amazed, this place is not ordinary far from the sea, could it be that the underground river here leads to the sea thousands of miles away?
"How is this possible!" Bruce questioned with a look of disbelief.
"This may explain why the Japanese railroad tracks are erected on the cliffs on both sides, instead of the river beach!"
"What if there was a huge lake beneath this, similar to an ocean?" Li Weimin continued.
Everyone was stunned by this bold assumption, but they were powerless to refute it, because the rise of the underground river was unbelievable, and such a sudden huge amount of water could not be an intermittent river, or a lagoon drainage, and the scale could not be so large, but the tide of the ocean was possible, and the flood and wave head were not inferior to the Qiantang tide.
It's just that the structure of this underground is obviously different from the river on the ground, more closed, more tortuous, if it is a tide caused by an underground lake, then how big does this lake have to be, and it will be affected by the gravitational pull of the earth and the moon?
There was a lot of debate, but there was no convincing result.
The water under the cave was still turbulent, and there was no intention of receding at all, and after the discussion was fruitless, everyone came back to their senses, looked carefully, and found that this was a passage, because the two ends were connected, and the other end was connected to the plank road carved out of the cliff wall, and the disappeared railroad track on the ground reappeared.
Cautiously walking along the cliff forward, Wu Ze was a little worried, the stone strips of the plank road sticking out of the cliff were wet and slippery, I was afraid that I would fall down if I was not careful, there were some iron guardrails next to it, but at this time it was already rusty, and no one had the courage to stretch out his hand to help, I was afraid that it would fall down if I touched it.
Jiang Yan couldn't help but ask Li Weimin: "Can you see when this plank road was dug out?" ”
Li Weimin touched left and right, thought carefully for a while, and replied: "The excavation time of these stone plank roads is definitely not short, you see these traces of excavation, obviously not with modern tools, but the iron guardrails on both sides, as well as the rails in front of them, must have been installed later, it is estimated that the devil and the devil division did it!" ”
"It's just that who will dig this plank road in ancient times?" Jiang Yan was a little puzzled.
Li Weimin pushed his glasses, and then said: "If the ancients dug this plank road, according to the technical level at that time, I am afraid it would take a lot of effort to dig such a large scale in this cliff, and even require the strength of the whole country. ”
"What is the purpose of the forces digging this line?"
"It can't be to watch the tide underground, right?" One of Sun Ruhai's subordinates asked curiously.
Li Weimin shook his head and said, "It is impossible for the ancients to do such a thing!" ”
Fortunately, the backpacks on everyone's bodies were not lost, the plank road was very long, but the emotions were still very stable, only the fat man who followed Wu Ze's side looked a little scared.
Although Luo Fatzi used to go in and out of many ancient tombs with Wu Ze, he had never encountered a matter of three deaths and one disappearance just after entering the cave.
Follow the road all the way on, past several streams and around several steep cliffs.
After about another three or four hours, Wu Ze turned on the flashlight and found that the railroad in front of him seemed to be gradually submerged into a dark hole.
Looking down, although the water flow has dropped somewhat, but it is still very turbulent, it is impossible to go back and forth, one is that the water flow does not know when it will recede, and the other is that the original river beach must be submerged by the stagnant water even after the water recedes, so those strange toads who are full of sucker tentacles before must occupy the river beach over there, if there are many of them, only death will be greeted by everyone who goes back.
Entering the swarthy entrance of the cave, it turned out to be a tunnel, and when I entered the tunnel, I found that the road began to rotate downward, and every other section of the road, there would be a small turntable with stone benches for rest, and some rough carvings, and the figures on the paintings were fierce and hideous.
