Chapter 66: Three Rivers
?? Li Guohua and the fat man were disappointed when they saw this dilapidated scene, and the fat man said to Li Guohua: "Boss Li, this bird is worth a little money, you don't lose money if you bring this bird back, and then settle our wages, and our work will be considered a successful end." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
?? I thought to myself, look at this guy who has never seen the world, can Boss Li just look at this bird? If he continued to talk like this, it was estimated that Emma and they would have to laugh at me together, so he said to the fat man: "Comrade Li Hanlin, you are really worthy of your parents to give you a name, and when you were a child, you let you study, you have to herd cattle, you are an illiterate person who has never read a book, can you not be ashamed." ”
?? The fat man smiled: "Come on, Lao Zou, as long as you read a lot, I don't think you played with me in the mud back then, besides, what years have you been, starving to death the timid to death the bold, you don't understand, but then again, although we are bold, it really takes some effort to move this big bird." ”
?? I said, "Don't think about moving it, don't say you can't move it, even if you can move it, you can't go far." Besides, we just took an egg here before, and almost moved our heads, this time are you going to split up the five horses, or are you going to be chopped into mashed meat? You don't look at it, there are dead corpses everywhere in this underground palace, maybe these dead corpses want to take away the phoenix to stay here, they have been covered by this glass palace for so many years, and they can't be reborn, if you join them, maybe you can give people more companions. ”
?? The fat man hesitated in the first half of the sentence, but he didn't take it seriously at all in the second half of the sentence. Li Mei, who had been unconscious, heard me say that the glass palace was covered with countless souls and could not be reincarnated.
?? Tong Qin stomped his feet anxiously: "Look at the good things you two have done, it's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and I also take care of the patient." ”
?? I realized that I was in trouble, so I quickly shut up, and the fat man felt that he had said one less word, and felt that it was not the end, and muttered: "What are you doing with so much glass in this underground palace?" Will we actually encounter live birds? ”
?? Emma smiled: "When you meet a living one, do you plan to take it back and raise it?" Giving you another birdman to come out? ”
?? Up to now, there are dead and wounded in the team, and it's really inappropriate to laugh. The top priority was to find the water source first, and everyone split up in the huge underground palace to start looking for the water source.
The huge dungeon is only visual, and it is only limited to the main hall, the side hall and the front hall are relatively simple, the gate and stone steps of the front hall are sealed by sand, the sand does not come in too much, enter the front hall from the gate, and there is also a stone wall that is almost the same as the ground to block it.
After turning a few side halls and the front hall, we came to the apse, the apse as a whole is not like the main hall and the front hall, there are glass walls everywhere, and there are black stones all around, after entering, the backpacks and flashlights on our bodies are extraordinarily heavy. It looks like a restaurant, presumably for resting and dining, and there is a black stone basin surrounded by jade at the back, with a bird's head spout on it, but it has been dry for a long time.
While walking and looking, Gu Tong's eyes are not good, but his ears are extremely sensitive: "Wait, listen, is there a sound of water?" ”
I pricked up my ears to listen, and sure enough, there was the sound of running water behind the black stone basin, but it was already over here, and the sound of water was behind the wall. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all mean that except for the fat man's violent demolition method, this time there is really no way.
I smiled and said, "If this is really a solid wall, then tell me how this bird's head comes out of the water?" Could it be that the ruler of this Xiaowan country has been here for a thousand years, and he didn't realize that there was water behind it? ”
When I came in, I felt that there was something wrong with this black stone basin, and it was a little shaken when I ran into it. I wanted to make some suspense, but I secretly turned it around, probably because of the long years and the inability to move, although it was shaken, it was difficult to turn.
I pulled the fat man and the two of them turned the stone basin in one direction, and as the stone basin turned, I heard a continuous clicking sound, and a stone door next to it was opened. The sound of the water also became clear. Everyone walked into the stone gate with flashlights.
The fat man said: "This ghost place, why are there so many stone doors hidden, Lao Zou, do you think we will miss any room where the treasure is placed?" ”
I said, "Don't think about your baby yet, let's find the water source first, drink enough, take a bath, and go to find the baby comfortably." ”
Behind the stone gate is a cave, there is a football field size, with the natural formation, but the stone gate can see the traces of artificial carving, the ground is also very flat, there is a small river in the field, the small river flows to the middle of the water seems to be separated by something, take a closer look, it is a protruding glass hill, like a safety island in the road, the water flow is divided, to the bottom there is a re-convergence.
Our group has been drinking only the basic water to sustain life for more than a week, and the fat man has not dared to drink it in order to save water. At this moment, I saw a cool underground river, and I couldn't help it anymore.
Emma stopped everyone and said, "This water source has been abandoned for many years, and the underground water source in Xinjiang has been diverted many times in the past thousands of years, and it is inevitable that some sulfur and nitrate will flow through, and there is no cure for poisoning here." ”
The fat man looked left and right, and there was a fish in the downstream of the current that was desperately swimming upstream, so he said: "I said, Miss Duan, can you accumulate some virtue in your mouth, but you didn't find water, you said that we only have money in our eyes, and there is no humanity, and now that we have found water, you say that it is poisonous and will kill people." We don't drink water until it's okay, but Li Mei's sister can't do it, people will really die if they don't drink water, you don't know, right? ”
Emma was choked by the fat man's words, and I don't know where they got such a big feud, and they pinched it when they didn't agree with each other. Seeing that Emma's face turned pale, I quickly stopped the fat man and said, "Okay, don't say it, Miss Duan, look there, there are still fish swimming in this river, and this water will definitely not be poisonous." ”
Emma glared at me fiercely and said, "I know, I don't need you to teach me. ”
After saying that, everyone couldn't take care of that much anymore, and they rushed to the river and drank the river water, their stomachs couldn't hold it anymore, and they kept burping in their mouths, and they still felt that it was not enough, until the water poured into their throats and eyes, and they were willing to stop when they moved.
Li Mei is bleeding and dehydrated, which can be described as riddled with diseases, of course, she can't drink water in large gulps like us. Tong Qin used salt and a pot of water to give her little by little. We drank too much water and had to rest in place.
Growing so big, I never felt that the taste of water was so good, and I was lying on the ground on all fours and panting. Gradually, I feel that the surroundings have become unusually quiet, the air is filled with the fragrance of fresh water, and I faintly seem to hear the roar of the water, which is different from the water we drink from this small river, just like the sound of a waterfall falling, it seems that there is still a certain gap in this underground palace. It doesn't sound like a lot of water.
was thinking wildly, suddenly heard Li Guohua "Huh", the glass hill in the center of the river suddenly moved, from the bottom of the river to the surface of the river exuded a green light, look carefully, those green lights are insects attached to the glass hills, looking like slugs.
Just as we were watching, there was a commotion in the cave, and a group of bats fell on the top, but they did not attack us, and hundreds of big bats rushed to the glass hill in the center of the river, and took away the green insects attached to it, and then returned to the top, enjoying a good meal.
I thought it was over, but when the bats were grabbing the bugs and eating them, our flashlight went up and saw that the bugs were bitten by the bats, and the green liquid flowed out and dripped into the river.
Although it was washed away by the river in an instant, but seeing that the river water we had just drunk was filled with green unknown liquid, a burst of indescribable nausea gushed up, and we opened our mouths and began to vomit out, and the river water that had just entered our stomachs was about to spit out with bile.
The fat man vomited and scolded: "What is this, it's green, it's still shining, it's too disgusting to look at, we don't know how much of this stuff we have eaten." Just set fire to this place and burn it down."
I said, "You better save it, we won't drink much of this thing, it is estimated that it will be washed away along the river, but it looks too disgusting." ”
Li Guohua asked: "Then what should we do, we can't go out with the water here, I guess no one wants to drink it." ”
I said, "I guess there is a bigger river downstream, which is not the same as here, and there will be a certain drop." ”
As we walked down the river, we saw cages made of bamboo, just big enough to fit a man, and some bones inside, and occasionally a few rats passing through, who had either drowned or been eaten by them. The deeper you go, the narrower the road becomes, the damper the walls become, and the ground is still flat.
Walking downstream through the hole, a large well-like pit appeared in front of us, and on the side there were two rivers of the same size, both converging here. The former site of Xiaowanguo is very close to Xinjiang and Mo County, which is at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. The underground water source here may come from the Kunlun Mountains, because of the topography, the water flow will be very large, and the dark river will be very deep.
However, after all, this place has been abandoned for thousands of years, and it has long been swallowed by the desert, and it is impossible to see it on the surface at all, and no matter what, the water of the underground dark river will eventually be swallowed up by the great desert.
