Chapter Eighty-One: Mountains and Flowing Water
"The temperature in the center of this volcanic lake must be very high, the three of us have only reached two-thirds of the position just now, and we already feel that the sand and wooden rafts are a little hot, and it is estimated that if we reach the center of the lake, there will be no one standing on the wooden raft at all."
Kexin looked at the towering trees in the middle of the lake, and said helplessly.
Yun Yanuan looked at the giant tree in the middle of the lake and thought for a while and said, "I have a way, I should be able to get by!" ”
When Diana heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What's the method, tell me quickly!" ”
"The wooden raft is overheated, because the draft is too deep and too long, our wooden raft has two layers of sand, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, this is for the balance in the water, if we flip the wooden raft over, then it will become more wood in the lower layer, and the draft will become a lot shallower.
I'm going to row with a steel helmet and take only one person at a time, so that the draft will be shallower and the two people will row faster, so it should be almost passable! ”
But after thinking about it for a while, he nodded and said, "This method should be feasible, but it will be hard for you devil six!" ”
Just think about it, a few people have been in a place where they don't see the light of day for too long, they need hot water, they need cooked food, and all this can only be obtained outside.
So they can't wait to get out of this hollow mountain, to breathe the outside air, drink boiled water, and eat grilled fish.
Maya is the youngest and weighs the lightest, Yun Yanuan decided to take her over first, and used the remaining rope of the parachute to tie the steel helmet tightly to half a wooden stick, he didn't dare to row directly with the steel helmet, the metal conducts heat the fastest, and his hands must become cooked food.
Yun Ya Nuan is in front, Maya is behind, rotating the short wooden stick, the steel helmet is still very good, and the wooden platoon is moving forward very fast, but this is not the fastest speed of Yun Ya Nuan, he wants to leave the explosive power in the hottest place in the middle of the lake.
Speed is the key to the success of this plan, as the giant tree in the middle of the lake gradually approaches, the temperature of the lake is getting higher and higher, fortunately, the draft of the wooden raft is very shallow, and the thermal conductivity of the wood itself is not good, so the two of them can still adapt, but the surrounding air becomes very angry, just like in a sauna, the breath is suffocated, very uncomfortable.
Seeing that it was only a hundred meters away from the center of the lake, Yun Yanuan had already seen the lake water rolling bubbles, this is where the geothermal heat drilled out, and the water temperature in this area should be extremely high, but it should not be boiling.
There are already some hot feet on the wooden raft, but fortunately, Maya spread the snake skin of Candle Jiuyin on the feet of two people in time, this creature is extremely yin, and its skin insulation effect is simply magical, one side is under the feet, and you can no longer feel the heat, which is very comfortable.
Thinking of this, Yun Yanuan, who was sweating profusely, couldn't help but think of the third eye of Candle Jiuyin in the deerskin belt, and took it out on a whim, since absorbing the phosphorescent light of the Yin Fire Corpse Beach, the light of this bead was many times better than in the past, and when it was taken out at this time, it immediately emitted a white light.
Yunya Nuan is very strange, why can such a gloomy evil thing emit such a bright light, but after you are irradiated by this light, you will have the feeling of Senluo Hell, very cold!
However, this feeling, when it comes to this hot place, becomes comfortable, the white light is like cold air, permeating the wooden row, the heat around him disappears, the breathing suddenly becomes comfortable, and the strength is doubled.
Yun Yanuan didn't work until his whimsy worked, and he suddenly exerted his strength at the moment, shaking the steel helmet quickly, and the distance of 100 meters was soon reached.
Here is a stone platform, is a huge square, and the surrounding lake, just in the shape of a bronze coin, this stone platform does not know what material is built, even in such a hot lake, stepping on it, there will be no trace of warmth.
Yun Yanuan guessed what kind of special material this should be, the ancient civilization was unpredictable, and there was nothing strange about these unbelievable things.
"You're just waiting for me here, don't go inside by yourself, you know?"
Yun Yanuan told before leaving, as if talking to a child.
"Well, I'm just sitting here, not going anywhere! Waiting for you to come back! Maya said obediently.
Yun Ya Nuan touched her head, and then hurried back quickly, with the help of Candle Jiuyin's skin and the third eye, the heat hindered them to the minimum.
It didn't take long for the five people to stand on the square platform, but Xin stroked the white stone platform under his feet with his hand, feeling the slightest coolness, and couldn't help but sigh:
"In such a hot environment, it can still exude a trace of coolness, what kind of material is this, is it the water jade legendary in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
The water jade that Kexin said is different from the water jade that is generally called in modern times, and the modern era generally represents crystal. In ancient times, people called water jade to be made of thousands of years of ice, which is a difficult treasure.
Legend has it that the red pine nuts in Shennong were made into immortal bodies because of eating water jade, and they could be put into fire without burning. The daughter of Emperor Yan then cultivated immortals, and she also ate water jade and obtained immortal bodies.
This is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and it can be said that few Chinese do not know about it, because he is the legendary rain master, and the agricultural country prays for the wind and rain the most, and worships this god every year.
Yun Yanuan heard Ke Xin say that this thing was water jade, and couldn't help laughing: "You can pull it down, water jade is a treasure, you can eat it." You give me a bite to try this! ”
Ke Xin pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "The ancient alchemists like alchemy the most, what is Jindan?" Refining the gas of hardware and knotting. This water jade is definitely not eaten raw, it needs to be alchemized, and it is estimated that there is a formula! ”
This statement also works, the so-called water jade is a treasure, it is better to say that the method that can train the water jade into an elixir is the treasure. But she is very sharp-toothed, Yun Yanuan is not ready to fight with her on this issue, she said that it is Shui Yu, so right.
The environment above this particular stone platform is very comfortable, and a trace of cool air rises from the soles of the feet, mixing with the heat of the outside world, producing drops of water vapor, like clouds and mist, around the surroundings.
When the sun shines down on the crater, the mist forms a rainbow that makes people feel like they are in a fairyland. Yun Yanuan packed up his things and put them in his backpack, and the wooden raft completed its historical mission and was left in the boiling lake.
Drawing his saber, he headed for the giant tree in the center of the stone platform, which was covered with clouds and mist, and it was not very real, and no one could have stepped into this place for many years, and no one could predict the possible danger.
So Yun Ya Nuan moved forward cautiously, the speed was not fast, and when she was halfway through, Maya suddenly stopped, grabbed Yun Ya Nuan and said:
"There is a voice!"
A few people hurriedly stopped and listened.
Sure enough, in the middle of this cloudy and misty mid-air, a faint crisp bell came, tactful and clear, like mountains and flowing water, and like a hundred birds singing in unison.
