Volume 2 Xia He Chapter 58 Tiankeng (4)

Yes, it's really rhubarb and little yellow. When they heard my cry www.biquge.info they only looked at me, and they blew up their back hairs, and they still stared at the toad without the slightest relaxation.

I walked over quickly, patted the toad's big triangular head and said, "Don't get me wrong, they're all my friends, but you can't fight in the nest!" Pick up, you hold your sister, don't let them fight. ”

Picking up the light and looking at the big rhubarb and the little yellow eyes, he heard my command and quickly hugged the toad in his arms. I walked over to Rhubarb and Rhubarb, and before I could get closer, a pair of little ones squeaked into my arms.

They are adults, in fact, they are not little ones anymore, they are a bit of a handy to hold in their arms, they have not seen each other for two months, and they seem to be a little heavier.

Even though they were in my arms, they were still staring vigilantly at the toad in their hands. I ran my hands through their hair and said, "How did you get here?" Did you come to me on purpose? By the way, that's my sister and my friend, and I can't fight, you know? ”

Maybe I heard the cry of a toad, and from a distance I saw Uncle Liang and Master Yang running over. They found me holding two weasels, and all three of them were shocked except for Uncle Liang, and their faces were full of incredulity.

I hurriedly explained: "This is Rhubarb and Little Yellow, a pair of my little friends, I don't know why they are here." I almost got into a fight with my sister just now, but we arrived in time, and now it's fine. ”

Liu Yingguo said in surprise: "Red lady, even the weasel is your friend, how many secrets do you have?" ”

I laughed and argued, "I don't have any secrets." If we can be friends with dogs and cats, why can't we be friends with other animals? ”

Yang Shigong sighed with emotion: "The toad is not an ordinary toad, and the weasel is not an ordinary weasel, you are really good at it!" I, Yang Shangbin, lived to be more than 70 years old, and I finally opened my eyes. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and a generation of new people replaces the old! People are more popular than people, and you can't be convinced. The words of the ancients are not wrong at all. ”

Director Kuang looked at the toad and then at the weasel, walked over slowly, looked at it carefully, and said, "Brother, I'm really curious, can you tell me their story?" ”

I replied, "Yes, I'll tell you about it when I have time that day." ”

Uncle Liang was also a little surprised, he knew that I had saved a pair of little weasels, but he had never seen them, then he diverted the topic and said: "Xiao Kuang, now we are most urgent to find a way out of here, gossip later, there is time to talk, while the red man is also there, let's discuss how to act." ”

Boxing can't be practiced, and how to get out is the overriding matter.

We entered the cave yesterday, and if we don't go out today, it may not be a big deal, but if we can't go out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, it is estimated that Xinghua Village will blow up again. Four people disappeared en masse: an old public security cadre who had been at home for a long time and was about to be reinstated, a director of a public security police station, a brigade secretary, and a junior high school student.

Even if you don't care about the impact, you have to take care of your family. When Master Yang disappeared, the family's tears never dried, and they were in pain and sadness, and they didn't settle down for more than a year. Everyone doesn't want the same thing to happen in their own homes, and in order to get out, you have to do everything you can.

Picking up was disappointed and bored, and I went to the side alone to play with the toad, and the rhubarb slipped off me, swooped up the cliff, and disappeared in the grass.

A few of us returned to the cave, and Master Yang gave a detailed introduction to the situation in the cave, so as to find the way out as soon as possible.

Yang Shigong said that when he traveled in his early years, he had seen such a pit in the deep mountains and old forests of Guangxi, according to his friends, such a pit is called the dragon pool, the dragon tank, also called the sinkhole, the legend is the bath of the dragon king and the gods in ancient times, and then it was abandoned, leaving the world, generally hidden in the deep mountains and rivers, inaccessible, unknown, the most suitable for people to practice in seclusion, but it is definitely difficult to find and difficult to enter and out of the dangerous place.

This sinkhole is huge, the temperature in the pit does not change much throughout the year, the grass and trees are lush, and there are many wild things, so there are no big carnivorous beasts such as tigers and wolves, but there are many poisonous snakes and insects, so everyone must not be careless.

He has been trapped in the pit for more than two years, and he has been to all the places he can go to the bottom of the pit, but he has never found an exit. However, he found that there were several cave entrances to the cliff, but most of them were the same as the caves we were in now, only a very shallow cave, only one deeper, because there was no light or food, he did not dare to go deeper, he did not know where it led and how deep it was.

And the pit walls are all cliffs, there are only three places that can go up, two places can only go up to the halfway up the mountainside, and one place can go back to the top, but the top is also a Jedi, the opposite side is the broken head cliff, and the foot is the broken soul valley of the cliff, and the left and right sides are also cliffs, which cannot be climbed.

According to him, this is a dead land, a Jedi, and there is no way to get out.

What to do? Where do you start? Everyone's mood was very heavy.

Master Yang finally said: "For more than two years, I have been thinking every day, we really can't go out by ourselves, if someone hangs a rope from above, we can go up, but I don't know where we can go after going up." ”

Isn't this nonsense? Of course, someone can go up by putting down the rope on the cliff, but here and the Broken Cliff is sandwiched by a Broken Soul Valley, and a radius of more than ten miles is a forbidden place, who will come here when they are full and have nothing to do? And who will drop the rope on it?

After discussion, it was decided to climb and look for it today to see if there were any other finds, in order to avoid mistakes and accidents, six people acted together, and first climbed to the top of the pit to take a look.

Climbing is a strenuous task, and you must eat and drink enough to ensure your physical strength. Just as he was about to eat the remaining eggs and sweet potatoes, he rushed back with two fat hares that he had killed. So he took it to the creek and peeled the skin and gutted it, smeared it with rock salt, set up a firewood and roasted it, and after a while the smell of meat filled the air.

After eating and resting a little, he was led by Master Yang and began to climb to the top of the pit.

The grey rock walls were stacked on top of each other, and the flatlands and slopes were covered with mud, overgrown with shrubs, thorns, and vines, and there were also a small number of pine-fir trees, which were probably thin in soil and not deep in roots, and all of them were strangely shaped and not tall, and many of them had died.

Where there is grass and trees, it is not difficult to climb, but the difficult ones are the rock walls that stand upright like knives and axes. The exposed limestone is sometimes smooth and sometimes rough, covered with moss in many places, and many of the crevices are soaked with spring water, making it particularly slippery and difficult to walk.

Master Yang has indeed climbed many times, and he knows exactly where he can go up, where there is water, where there are trees, and where vines grow. Even so, from the bottom of the pit to the top of the pit, the straight-line distance is estimated to be at most a mile, and we walked and stopped, detouring and climbing, extremely slowly. It took more than three hours to reach the top of the pit.

The top of this section of the pit is a rectangular depression, the trees are sparse and dwarf, and the deciduous shrubs are bare in the cold wind, except for a few pines that are still green, and the rest are yellow and gray.

Looking into the distance, the mountains are undulating, the peaks overlap, the cloudy sky seems to have haze, and it is faintly not clear. Turning around and looking down at the bottom of the pit, it is like an abyss, which makes people dizzy, dare not look at it for a long time, and unconsciously grasp the bushes around them.

As Yang Shigong said, the left and right sides of the depression are upright cliffs several feet high, and there is no way to climb with strength. The opposite top of the mountain, which is about seven or eight zhang away, is also a cliff, and the fog in the valley is so thick that you can't see the bottom at all, Yang Shigong said that it is the Broken Head Cliff and the Broken Soul Valley, and there will be absolutely no mistake.

The wind was very strong on the top of the pit, and the temperature was much lower than the bottom of the pit, so we were wearing very little, and we were sweating all over, and the north wind blew, and it was too cold to stand it for a while. Disappointed and helpless, he hurried back the same way. When they went down to the bottom of the pit, they were so tired that their waists and legs were sore, and they sat on the ground and gasped.

It was already past noon, and it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone was eating eggs and sweet potatoes and pouring spring water, no one spoke in the cave, the atmosphere was dull and depressing, and everyone knew in their hearts that it was probably impossible to go out in a short time.

Master Yang broke the silence and said: "If you come, you will be safe, in my opinion, you don't have to climb up in vain, don't you have four flashlights?" After a hard day's work, we'll try our luck tomorrow in that cave, and maybe we'll be able to get out of there! ”

Liu Yingguo said: "That's right! Our flashlights are all replaced with new batteries, all the way in the first use of torches, flashlights are less on, the battery is not much, save a little, only one at a time, and can go a long way. I think that's it, what do you say? ”

Uncle Liang nodded and said, "Then it's decided, let's act early tomorrow." ”

With new hope, the atmosphere was a little lighter.
