Xia Qing's words startled everyone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The fat man exclaimed at the end: "Professor Xia, you ...... What do you mean by that? ā
Gao Chao and Hua Ye also glanced at each other, both shook their heads, and then looked at Xia Qing.
Xia Qing stood still on the strange stone in front of him, and said with a soft sigh: "I have long found out that these stones that seem to be embedded in the stone wall are very strange, as long as you touch them, you will have a cool feeling, as if they do not blend with the environment here, so I took a closer look, only to find that these things that look like black stones are actually not stones." ā
Gao Chao couldn't help but ask, "Then what do you think they are?" ā
Xia Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "They are people. ā
"What?" The fat man at the end almost jumped up from the stones: "You say these stones are people? Still is...... Or are they all human-like stones? ā
Xia Qing explained helplessly: "These things that look like stones are actually people, I don't know what happened to them, but it's very similar to the situation in Pompeii, maybe...... Perhaps these people were tied to this stone wall and waited for the hot lava to swallow them, and finally formed a situation where their bodies were like stones, but they were definitely not stones. ā
Gao Chao looked at the black strange stones under his feet in a daze, and said for a while: "However, if these strange stones are all human, then ...... So where are their heads? I didn't see the head at all. ā
Xia Qing didn't say anything directly to Gao Chao, but said softly: "Look at the bottom of these stones. ā
Gao Chao hurriedly looked at the strange stones in front of him, but then, he suddenly shuddered, because he finally saw the meaning of what Xia Qing said, but he didn't expect that the bottom of those strange stones were all ball-shaped stones, if you think of a human head, no matter who you are, you will inevitably have chills on your body.
The fat man shouted even more: "I grass, these stones are really people, they ...... Are they all hung upside down on these stone walls? ā
Xia Qing nodded and said, "Although I don't know why, they did hang upside down here before they died, waiting for the magma to wrap them up. ā
Listening to Xia Qing's words, Gao Chao was still in horror, but he suddenly thought of something again, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "What did you say?" Magma wraps them up? Are you sure they all died like this? ā
Xia Qing nodded: "Of course, only living people who are wrapped in magma will form their flesh and bones into the shape of a human, so they must be still alive and engulfed by magma." As she spoke, Xia Qing's eyes moistened a little, thinking about what happened to these people back then, she suddenly felt very sad.
But Gao Chao frowned and said, "If that's the case, then ...... And how did all this magma get to this location? ā
As soon as Gao Chao's words came out, everyone was stunned, including Xia Qing, of course, because she had not paid attention to this issue, but had always felt sorry for those who died.
However, this sentence made Xia Qing's body immediately burst into a layer of white sweat.
"Could it be ......" Xia Qing said nervously, "Could it be that these magma will ...... Will it rise? ā
Hua Ye also looked at Gao Chao seriously and said, "It seems that there is only one possibility." ā
As soon as their words fell, suddenly, a wave of heat hit them from nowhere, sweeping across the entire red space, like a brush sweeping over the stone wall, baking the four of them to the point that they almost lost their center of gravity and fell into the magma pool below.
Gao Chao couldn't help but look down, it didn't matter, his eyes had already widened, and he saw that in the center of the magma pool, I don't know why, it began to churn for no reason, like hot water boiling a pot.
Hua Ye suddenly said loudly: "Go forward, I'm afraid there will be changes." ā
Xia Qing finally reacted from the panic, and quickly ran forward, Gao Chao followed, Hua Ye and the fat man did not dare to slack off, and the four of them ran forward cautiously as fast as they could.
Gao Chao looked down as he ran, and saw that the center of the magma pool, where it was still tumbling just now, seemed to have something rising upward, one at a time, and then bringing out layers of magma waves.
He suddenly felt that the green tendons on his forehead had burst, and his body began to tremble, although he did not stop, but he could not suppress the fear in his heart.
Just because he had clearly seen that in the center of the magma pool, there was something similar to a big snake that was constantly rolling, and every time it showed its head, it would dive into the magma again, but its huge body, like the back of a fish out of the water, constantly disturbed the surrounding magma liquid surface, causing the magma pool to continue to roll.
What kind of creatures will appear in the magma, it is unimaginably hot, let alone entering the magma pool, even if a person is close to the magma, it is easy to ignite the hair on the body, this is definitely not a joke.
Unless it's not flesh and blood, but what kind of creature on this planet isn't made of carbohydrates?
These questions could not stay in Gao Chao's mind, he only knew how to run fast, because he had already found that the level of the magma was gradually rising as the giant beast continued to churn.
If calculated at this speed, it will not take more than 20 minutes for them to be swallowed by the magma level at this height.
When the time comes, the four of them will probably become the appearance of these strange stones forever.
Of course, it is not only the masterful who has discovered these situations, but in fact everyone has seen what is happening.
The fat man was out of breath at the end, but he was unusually perked up, and he shouted as he ran: "Old Gao, can you hurry up, I don't want to become a roast suckling pig." ā
But the road ahead, the strange rocks on the rock wall, they seem to never come to an end, which also makes their hearts very uncomfortable.
I really don't know how many people were hung upside down on the stone wall like this back then, just to build a road? Or maybe it's a special sacrificial situation, all in all, this way of approaching the extinction of humanity is very inhumane from any point of view.
Unconsciously, time was passing quickly, and the pages of the magma were already approaching where they were, and Gao Chaozhi felt that the soles of his feet were starting to get hot, instead of walking on these stone figures like before, there would be a cool feeling. (To be continued.) )
