Gu Yihui carefully looked at the map drawn in her hand for a while, and then said: "According to the display on the map, the entrance should be nearby, let's look around carefully." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Zou Yue looked around, frowned and said, "Where did the entrance to this kind of place come from, even if there is, I'm afraid it would have collapsed a long time ago." ”

The surrounding area is full of rocks and grass, and it is almost impossible to find a thousand-year-old cave entrance from such an environment. But at this time, Gu Yihui said: "If we can't find the entrance to the passage, we won't want to solve this mystery." ”

Zou Yue replied: "Why do you just solve any mystery, why can't you ......?"

Before Zou Yue's words were halfway through, he was interrupted by Gu Yihui: "I said, if you don't want to, you can leave at any time!" She calmed down a little, and her tone softened a lot, "Maybe this matter doesn't matter to you, but for me, this mystery is even about me. ”

When I heard her say this, the original search for the entrance suddenly froze, and my eyes subconsciously looked at Gu Yihui. When Gu Yihui saw me looking at her, she smiled indifferently, and then asked me, "Huang Zanghai, do you know what I want?" ”

I shook my head: "I don't know. ”

"Why didn't you ever ask me if you didn't know?"

I casually said, "If you want to say, why should I bother?" If you keep your mouth shut, what's the use of me asking? ”

A smile appeared on Gu Yihui's face, she smiled beautifully, and felt pure and flawless, but a philosophical story appeared in my mind: "Sichuan pepper - black-hearted people often wear red clothes." "I don't know why I thought of this, maybe out of instinctive vigilance, or maybe for some other reason.

"We're on the same road, maybe still the same way, I hope that's the case. You tell me? Brother Hai? A different look appeared on Gu Yihui's face, "Can I call you that?" ”

"Yes, of course." I replied, but at this moment, Zou Yue seemed to glance at me inadvertently, with a floating look in his eyes, not knowing whether he was happy or resentful.

As we searched closely, we found that the place we were in turned out to be the ruins of an ancient city, and although the broken stone walls had been changed beyond recognition, we could still see the general layout of the ancient city. Gu Yihui picked up the paper and pen again, searched and painted at the same time, as long as the layout of the ancient city was drawn, it would be easier for us to find the entrance to the passage.

The ancient city extends to the side slope, which is roughly at an angle of 60° and steeper the higher you go.

When we climbed to the highest point of the ruins of the ancient city, the ground in front of us broke abruptly, and there were thousands of cliffs in front of us, and the sound of rumbling water passed in our ears.

I tentatively stomped on the edge of the cliff, and then a large pile of rocks and earth fell, and then I said, "I see, part of this ancient city has probably been swallowed up by the river below the cliff." ”

Gu Yihui said with some worry: "If the entrance is washed away by the river, our efforts during this period of time will be in vain." ”

Zou Yue took a flashlight to shine around, and suddenly he shouted: "Look! ”

We looked along the place where his flashlight was illuminated, and saw a crooked dead tree on the edge of the cliff not far away, this tree was very thick but very short, about three meters high, diagonally inserted on the edge of the cliff, flashing golden points of light under the light of the flashlight, as if afraid of some fireflies.

When we got closer, we realized that this was not an ordinary tree, but a tree cast of metal, and the body of the tree was covered with flowing cloud-like markings, strange waves, and strange lights.

We looked around the surface of the tree in circles, and soon I noticed a shallow groove in the trunk, about the size of a palm, and most importantly, an abstract pattern of a rudimentary hummingbird in the groove.

The token slowly melted into the groove, and then only a "click" was heard, and then the metal tree trembled violently, making a "pop" sound.

As the metal tree trembled, the ground beneath his feet shook, and countless earth and stones crackled, and then crackled and fell under the cliff, submerged into the darkness, and disappeared without a trace.

A large hole was torn in the ground against the cliff, revealing a dark and deep tunnel. As the earth cracked, the loose metal foundation could no longer support the weight of the metal tree, and I saw it shake sharply from side to side a few times, and with a "crak", it fell off the cliff like an upside-down onion.

However, what we didn't expect was that this metal tree was like an ordinary tree, with a large and intricate root system, and as it was uprooted, countless vein-like stems were also pulled out of the ground, and after the root system was extracted, the rocky soil on the cliff had no longer anything to support, and collapsed one after another.

Luckily, we had already run far, otherwise we would have gone down to the river with the rocks to bathe.

When everything calmed down, we dared to walk cautiously over, the original metal tree erected place, collapsed into a huge pit, there is a huge hole in the pit, the flashlight shines through, only to see a staircase built in a spiral shape all the way down, in the depths of the tunnel, there is actually a red light flickering from time to time.

The expedition equipment had been prepared before that, such as climbing ropes, military folding shovels, pathfinder lamps, flashlights, gas masks, climbing picks, gas lamps, solid fuel, etc., as well as medicines, including Yunnan Baiyao and anti-snake venom, as well as compressed biscuits and canned food, bagged food, and drinking water. It can be seen that Gu Yihui is definitely a professional explorer, and it can also be said that she has been fully prepared for this expedition for a long time.

We enter the tunnel with the help of a climbing rope and then descend up a spiral staircase made up of square blocks of rocks that are clearly volcanic rhyolite, as the surface of the rock is covered with flow-like markings. The stone is smooth and flat, and the joints between the stones do not contain gelling agents, and even the razor blades cannot be inserted into the joints, so they look seamless and seamless. We have to sigh at the amazing craftsmanship of the craftsmen of ancient civilizations, and it is not too much to describe it as a ghostly workmanship.

After we walked through the spiral staircase, there was a stone platform paved with huge stones, in the center of the stone platform stood a tall stone statue, the stone statue depicted a strange animal, it is very similar to the alpaca we know, but the sculpture in front of us looks much larger, it is riding a man and a woman, they are like a couple, both naked bodies, sitting with their backs to each other, but I don't know why, the image of the woman is very vague and rudimentary, and the man is very finely depicted, and even the texture on the skin is clearly visibleIn particular, his genitals are particularly abrupt, which is obviously out of the fertility cult of the ancients.
