Chapter 1112: A biting cold wind
While pulling the rope and looking down, in fact, the vertical distance from my position to the bottom of the valley is not very long, about 20 meters, and Zhao Qingya, who went down first, has already fallen to the ground. Eight?? 1 Chinese ?(a).
However, he still looked a little dizzy, took a deep breath, and concentrated his mind on the stone wall in front of him, and then he saw that the horizontal lines on the stone wall were like winding waves, rising and floating, and there were some oval white blocks the size of thumbs inlaid in between.
Judging from the shape, it is a bit like a shellfish in the sea, but the outline is not very clear, it seems that Zhao Qingya's judgment is right, this place has really been submerged in the sea.
After a while, I went down to the bottom, and as soon as I opened the safety buckle fastened to my waist, a cold wind blew in my face, which made me shiver.
There is something strange in this, I have the Zhiyang True Qi to protect the body, even on the roof of the mountain, surrounded by a large area of wind and snow, I have never shivered, now it seems, this place is not simple.
The performance of several members of the scientific expedition team next to him was even more obvious, the equipment was only half taken off, and when it was blown by the cold wind, his body shook, and then his face turned white.
One of the team members, who was almost one meter nine tall, bent down and covered his legs, and said to his companion next to him, "Mingyuan, it's really strange for you to say this, just now we were sweating from the sun on it, thinking that it would be very cool if there was no sunlight in this canyon, but how could it be so cold, and my old cold legs made it again." ”
The scientific expedition member took off his glasses and wiped them with his sleeves, and took a breath, "Don't talk about your old cold legs, I still have goosebumps on my back now, this wind is really cold to the bones, by the way, Lao Han, do you remember the last time I was in Inner Mongolia Hash Banner, I fell into a wind tunnel, and as a result, I was frozen half to death, and I lay on the bed for three months, and the feeling was similar to this." ”
The tall team member stretched out his hand and patted him on the back, "******, don't scare me, you kid, didn't our scientific expedition team find more than a dozen dead bodies in that cave in a row, and the people of the Taoist Association also said that it was a human well, and it wouldn't be ...... here?"
Before she finished speaking, Zhao Qingya came over humming a small tune, "Professor Han, Professor Zhang, what are the two of you discussing, so excited, could it be that there are some valuable clues, say it, let's share it." ”
The professor surnamed Han sniffed, lowered his head and said, "It turned out to be Zhao Suo, how can there be anything, it's just that the gust of wind just now was a little cold, and my old problem of leg pain has been committed again, Ming Yuan asked me to pay attention to rest." ”
Zhao Qingya glanced at his legs, "Oh, since there is something wrong with your body, why don't you just rest here, I'll take them in to have a look, and I'll inform you if there's anything." ”
Professor Han hurriedly raised his leg and stepped on the ground, "Don't, it's all here, I must persevere to the end, Zhao Suo, you see, this leg is almost good." ”
Zhao Qingya nodded, and then turned her gaze over, "Advisor Yu, you have been standing in the back for a long time, and the expression on your face is cloudy, is there something happening?" ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Director Zhao, I don't have it now, I just have a feeling that it's not simple here." ”
She raised her hand and pointed to a shadow not far away, "You feel quite accurate, there is a cave there, the cold wind just now blew out of it, let's go in and have a look." ”
The Professor Han next to him suddenly interjected, "Two, I think it's still necessary for us to go find Team Leader Xie and Master Sunshine who came down before, after all, human life is still the most important." ”
The bespectacled scientific expedition member beside him nodded at the rows of scattered footprints on the sand not far ahead, and quipped, "Old Han, if you don't say that you can't always rise, it's just that the overall situation is not enough, Director Zhao has already considered this matter, you see, those rows of footprints are going towards that cave." ”
Professor Han hurriedly added, "That's it, or someone else is a leader." ”
Zhao Qingya was not interested in the flattery of the two at all, turned around and left, I hurriedly walked a few steps to follow, after all, it was my duty to protect her safety.
The canyon was flanked by towering stone walls, and the sunlight could only shine through the cracks above, and the area illuminated was quite small, and the two of them soon stepped into the shadows, and the looming cold air soon resurfaced.
After distancing herself from the few people behind her, Zhao Qingya slowed down, "Looking at your expression, there must be something you want to ask me, right." ”
Her senses were quite keen, so I told the question in my heart, "Actually, from a theoretical point of view, this is just the back sun, and the temperature is not low enough for the human body to feel, but it is not an exaggeration to say that with my cultivation, I was shivered by the cold wind, and you didn't react from beginning to end, so ......"
"So you suspect I'm not normal?" She smiled.
She took a deep breath, lowered her head and whispered, "If I told you that since I passed out on the mountain that time, I can't feel the warmth or cold, believe it or not." ”
It turns out that this is the case, this lack of senses is likely to be related to the demon pill in her body, so it's better not to emphasize it now.
She looked up and said, "What, don't believe me?" ”
I tried to hold back a smile and said, "Don't worry, according to my judgment as a professional, this phenomenon is related to the curse in your body, and when we solve the big witch, it will be fine." ”
Zhao Qingya shook her head, "It doesn't matter, anyway, life will eventually come to an end, it doesn't make a difference if you leave early or late, as long as you can find the ancient city of the Yue Clan before then, it can be regarded as the end of one of my wishes." ”
I wanted to say something optimistic to encourage her, but after thinking about the current situation, I sighed and didn't pick up any more.
Whether or not the Yueshi Ancient City can be found is still unknown, and taking a step back, even if the ancient city is found, it is not so easy to take down that Great Witch.
Soon they came to the cave at the end of the footprints, which was not a natural opening, but a rectangular crack with irregular edges, which could be inferred from a few pieces of rubble scattered in the sand beside it, and the stone wall had been broken directly from the outside by a hard object.
Zhao Qingya bent down to observe carefully for a while, took out a pair of white gloves from her arms, put them on, touched them at the incision, turned around and asked, "Xiao Zhang, Team Leader Xie, did they bring special cutting tools when they came down?" ”
The man with the pair of eyes on his face touched his head, "No, I remember that Xia Yan asked if he wanted to bring some tools before going down, but he was rejected by Team Leader Xie, and he said that he would just go down to check it first, and then transport it when there is a real situation." ”
