Chapter 149: Back to Town (2)
After Situ Ran smeared Chu Xingyun and himself, he took out the fire fold and blew it, then lit the strip of cloth on the wooden stick, picked up Chu Xingyun and walked into the secret passage!
Marco hurriedly took out a lighter and lit a torch and walked in!
The passage inside was still very spacious, almost enough for three people to go down side by side, and as soon as Marco went down, Situ Ran, who had already reached the end of the steps, inserted the key into a keyhole in the wall and twisted it hard!
The top slowly closes...
The entire passage became pitch black as the stone slab above closed up, and only the faint torches in the hands of the two of them lit up the surroundings...
This step is made of bluestone, there are only dozens of steps, and after the steps is a hand-dug road...
The corridor is not small, you can feel the flow of the wind, the soft wind flowing in your ears, accompanied by bursts of noisy and strange buzzing sounds...
It's a bit like the sound of a mosquito, but it seems to be a little louder...
According to Situ Ran's advice, Ma Ke didn't dare to ask Situ Ran, who was familiar with the road ahead, so he could only silently follow him all the way forward...
Fortunately, there is only one road on this road, and they only walked for ten minutes before they saw the bright exit in front of them!
The exit has arrived!
The two of them step up! Hurry up and get out!
The front suddenly opens up!
Outside the Secret Passage!
The sun is shining!
The bright and colorful sunlight in the early morning shines through the clouds into the cave entrance...
The sunlight was dazzling, making the eyes of the two people who had just adapted to the previous dark environment uncomfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Marco couldn't help but stretch out his palm to block the harsh sunlight, but he was still attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him and was reluctant to close his eyes...
Under the vast blue sky in front, from the mountains stacked on top of each other, the peaks are majestic, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and all kinds of birds are soaring wantonly, like a fairyland...
They are almost close to the top of the mountain, just in time to have a glimpse of the lofty mountains in the distance, the splendid green mountains...
"This is Taoyuan Town?"
Marco looked at the picturesque scenery in front of him, and couldn't help but ask Situ Ran on the side...
But no one answered him...
"Brother Situ! Brother Situ? ”
Marco shouted a few times and no one responded, then he withdrew his gaze and looked left and right...
Situ Ran was nowhere to be found, and Chu Xingyun, who was in a poisoned coma, leaned aside...
"Brother Situ!! Where have you been? ”
Marco shouted again, and there was an echo in the distance...
"Don't scream, I'll come down right away!"
Situ Ran's voice came from above...
Soon...
Situ Ran jumped down from it holding a huge bamboo basket, landed firmly on the ground, and then said to Marco:
"Wait a while, we will cross another plank road and we will almost arrive in Taoyuan Town, this needs to be carried over, Brother Ma, you will carry Brother Chu later!"
"Well, okay! But Brother Situ, I didn't see a plank road here! ”
Marco picked up Chu Xingyun on his back, looked around and said...
Indeed, this is a rock jutting out of the cliff, and there doesn't seem to be a boardwalk around it...
"Come with me!"
Situ Ran raised the huge bamboo basket with both hands, walked to the right side of the rock, walked to the edge of the rock and jumped down!
"Ahh Marco screamed in fright!
"It's okay, there's a cave down there! Let's put Brother Chu down first! ”
Situ Ran's voice came from below!
Marco leaned forward and looked down!
Really!
There is a platform with a drop of about 2 meters below, which is obviously excavated by hand...
Marco hurriedly held Chu Xingyun's armpit with both hands, and put him down carefully, Situ Ran below cautiously followed, and then Marco also mustered up the courage to jump down...
……
This plank road winds forward, winding up the mountain for several kilometers, one of the two of them is holding a huge bamboo basket in front, and the other is carrying Chu Xingyun, who is in a poisoned coma, walking on this hidden plank road for several hours...
"Brother Situ, why did you apply that foul-smelling oil in that cave just now?"
Mark, who was carrying Chu Xingyun on his back, had nothing to do all the way, so he asked Situ Ran, who was holding a big bamboo basket in front of him, his previous question.
"That oil is used to repel "bloodthirsty mosquitoes"! There is a poisonous insect called the bloodthirsty mosquito growing in the cave just now, they continue to suck human blood and release a toxin to paralyze the central nervous system when sucking blood, only one toxin can make people unable to move their hands and feet, and they are almost not afraid of anything except this insect repellent oil..."
Situ Ran held up the huge bamboo basket and said without looking back.
"No wonder you want me to go down and not speak, because I'm afraid that after I open my mouth, mosquitoes will run out of my mouth, right?"
"No, the echo in the corridor is too loud, I'm afraid you're too noisy..."
Situ Ran said truthfully, and Mark was speechless for a while...
The two of them walked until the scorching sun was in the sky, only to see a huge protruding rock not far away, and a platform was artificially carved out of the rock, and there was a rock base on the platform that was integrated with the rock platform, which should have been dug out of the huge rock...
On the pedestal there is a tall three-legged stand made of ironwood, and a thick ropeway is tied to the upper end of the bracket...
Situ ran to the platform, put down the bamboo basket, and quickly turned a crank on the stand, which was connected to a thin rope...
With the rapid rotation of the crank...
In the clouds and mist in the distance, a steel hook slowly approached this side from the other end!
After a few more swings, the hook finally reached the top of the platform!
Situ Ran fixed the hook, adjusted his breathing, and then hung up the huge bamboo basket!
Turning his head to Marco, he said:
"Come on!"
Then he jumped into the air and flew into the bamboo basket!
It turns out that this bamboo basket is a simple cable car!
Marco hurriedly ran forward and carefully handed Chu Xingyun to Situ Ran in the bamboo basket, and then climbed into the bamboo basket awkwardly...
Situ Ran took Chu Xingyun, lay his back up on his legs, and lifted the clothes on Chu Xingyun's back, one was bigger than before, almost two fist-sized tumors grew on Chu Xingyun's back where the venom was contaminated...
This venom is really stubborn, and it has grown a big tumor in just one night...
After Marco sat firmly, Situ Ran pulled up the rope of the hook, and the bamboo basket slowly moved forward until the bamboo basket was suspended in the air, Situ Ran shouted to Marco:
"Hold on!"
Swish!
Situ Ran let go of the rope! The bamboo basket glides forward quickly!
It's blazing fast!
Marco only felt a strong wind blowing in front of him, and his eyes narrowed into a line only to see the clouds around him flash quickly behind them!
It felt like they were flying through the clouds...
"Ah!!h
The timid Marco still couldn't help it and screamed loudly!
The cable car is no less than a roller coaster, and although there are no ups and downs, the speed is much faster than the roller coaster...
It's just too high, it's too fast!
He shouted for a few moments before the cable car slowly slowed down through the clouds and fog, and a three-legged stand of similar construction stood on a platform in front of him, but this one was larger, and the crank was thicker and longer...
A young man in a white cotton and linen robe turned the crank to let the hanging basket slowly approach...
Behind him is a tall and majestic, majestic golden glazed tile gatehouse, standing on the edge of the cliff, a golden plaque on the gatehouse, printed with the golden "Taoyuan Town" three big characters!
The young man glanced at Situ Ran, who was sitting in front of the hanging basket, and shouted happily:
"Young Patriarch Situ! You're back! ”
