Chapter 62: Ruins
Standing in this brilliant underground ice crystal world, my heart was surging for a long time before I could barely calm down, and this layer of reflection has been extending forward, so that the road ahead of us is also shrouded in such a halo, and at a glance, I can't see the head at all.
I couldn't help but sigh: "This place is so big, these reflective mirrors, you made them?" ”
Naturally, he nodded.
This place is definitely not a project that can be completed by one person, so it must have been built by Xiao Fuso when he was still a lot of people, and it seems that they will come to this place often. Thinking of the empty building of Little Fuso, I can't help but wonder, why did Little Fuso end up being left with only one person left? What's going on with the rest? Thinking of this, I tried to ask, but I didn't think that I would stay so naturally that I didn't have silence this time, and he said bluntly: "It's all dead." ”
I said, "Why did you die?" ”
"Life and death, do you still need a reason?" He asked lightly.
It almost took me a moment before I realized, "I mean, when a person dies, he always has offspring, right?" Passed down from generation to generation, Xiao Fusang shouldn't be the only living person left. ”
He walked in front in silence, his footsteps always maintaining a rhythm, and just when I thought he wouldn't answer my question, he said, "There are no offspring." ”
No offspring?
What does this mean? Could it be that the woman of Little Fusang is dead? Or...... Are all men infertile?
I wanted to continue to ask, but at this time, he suddenly said two words: "It's here," he stretched out his hand and pointed forward, I subconsciously followed the direction of his finger to look, and the faintly revealed scene in front of me made my heart beat violently.
There is still a glacier ahead, but in that glacier, there are countless vegetation and tall tree shadows, and the branches of some trees even poke out of the glacier, and the whole thing is like a specimen, maintaining a fresh posture.
Under the brilliant light, the ice becomes transparent, and the vegetation, soil, and even some small animals in the ice are wrapped in the ice, revealing many phantoms. It is an underground forest frozen by glaciers.
Although this phenomenon is rare, it is not unfounded, and I have seen this information when I was in school before. The large area of glacier snow we are in at this moment should be the product of the fourth quarter of the glacial period.
Glaciers move, and in the process of traveling, glaciers will destroy and cover large areas of forests, vegetation, animals, and most of the living things will be destroyed directly, but a small part can be preserved if they happen to be in the crevice structure of the glacier.
The fourth glacial period is about 2 million to 3 million years ago, that is, this glacier and snow area have existed for millions of years, and the vegetation frozen in the ice in front of us is the paleontology of millions of years ago.
Under the refracted light, these ancient creatures wrapped in ice still maintain the appearance of millions of years ago, the color is still the same, and the shape is upright. I don't know much about the geography of the western region millions of years ago, but judging from the height of these vegetation, the altitude of Tibet at that time should not have been so high, at least some tall trees could grow.
It is said that more than 70 million years ago, the entire Himalayas were still a vast ocean, and archaeologists had long excavated a large number of fossils of marine life in the rock and soil layers of Tibet.
The orogeny, which dragged it out of the sea, raised the altitude of the Himalayas, the Kunlun Mountains, and the whole of Tibet by about 3,000 meters. Obviously, a long time ago, there were primeval forests in Tibet, but it is difficult for people to see them today, and the remains of this ancient glacier in front of them are definitely biological specimens of the Pleistocene period.
I couldn't speak for a while, and I couldn't wait to get my eyes full, and I walked forward in a daze, my eyes kept looking around, and even in the ice under my feet, I could see the ferns that had been frozen, lifelike, and green, as if they would grow again as soon as the ice was broken.
The further I went, the more vegetation I could see, most of which were sloping in one direction due to the squeezing of the glaciers, and the vegetation was close to each other, and through them, I could see the creatures that flourished millions of years ago.
Gradually, among those vegetation, there are still faint shadows of some animals, most of these animals are very similar to modern animals, after all, two million years, for the evolution of the species is not too long, the only difference, that is, the difference in the depth of hair, body size, the only surprise to me is that I saw a saber-toothed tiger fleeing for his life.
It's a species that was indeed the fourth glacial age, but I thought it only lived in the southeast, but I didn't expect it to be found in the west.
As soon as we walked, we walked out a few hundred meters away, and the ice at the top was still an artificially polished ice crystal reflector, and the tall trees extended all the way up to the depths of the ice, making it difficult to see its true face.
I thought of the firewood in the stove hole, and I couldn't help but be surprised: "I said Derpy, the firewood you use for cooking can't be cut here, right?" Before he could reply, I knew I had guessed correctly, for there was an apparently man-made ice cave in the left side of the ice wall in front of us.
The ice cave stretched straight into the frozen primeval forest, and outside the ice cave, there was a tree that had been cut down, and it was placed in a circle.
I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down, but in the end I couldn't calm down, and I couldn't help but pull my hair and yell, "You use the trees here to make a fire!" Oh, my God! Calm down, calm down! Derpy, let me tell you, you must not shake this out, otherwise it will make headlines, and maybe even in history textbooks. ”
Naturally, he looked at me quietly and didn't speak.
When I saw his attitude of not knowing how to communicate and being silent, I felt powerless, sighed, and said, "You said you wanted to collect medicine, did you go to that cave?"
He nodded.
I finally understood why Team Zeng said that he had seen the forest, although many of his memories were lost, but this forest must have given him a great shock at that time, so he never forgot it.
Immediately afterward, the natural dazine began to walk towards the ice cave, and we stepped over the upside-down tree at the entrance of the cave and entered the interior.
The inside of the ice cave is also polished with a reflective surface, but it is relatively sparse, so the light is very dim, and a large amount of ice inside has been chiseled to reveal some vegetation, I reached out to touch it, and found that most of it is hard. If it is said that the medicine taken by the natural medicine is in this forest, will those medicines still have an effect?
The ice cave has many twists and turns, and the roads carved out in the ice allow people to freely shuttle through this underground forest. Xuanbing is a very strong thing, and when a hammer goes down, it is just a white mark, and the people of Xiao Fusang can actually mine it into this shape, there is definitely some secret weapon, and eighty percent is the same thing as the natural killer beauty snake.
There is an old Chinese saying: the stone of the mountain can be used to attack the jade. The jade is a very brittle thing, smooth and smooth, difficult to start, small can not start, big cut is difficult to become, and the ancients found a kind of gravel, although the texture is soft, but it happens to be the nemesis of jade, which developed jade culture.
Therefore, everything in this world is mutually reinforcing, and no matter how powerful things are, there is always something that can clean it up. Suddenly, along the ice road, a huge ice cave that had been mined out appeared in front of our eyes.
The vegetation in the ice cave is full of motionless and lifelike, as if it is still growing, but when you actually walk into it, you can feel their stiffness. The natural dive looked down and pulled out the scythe at his waist to search through the stiff vegetation. I asked him what he was looking for, and I helped him find it, and he described it as a mushroom-like creature.
That paleontology has a lot of medicinal value, but I doubt it's ever been effective after freezing for so long. The fungus is difficult to find, and it usually grows at the roots of plants, so we have to bend over and tilt our heads sideways to find it slowly.
After searching for more than an hour, the medicine was not found, but the waist was like it was about to break. Just as I stood up and moved my waist, I suddenly noticed that on a tree not far away, there was something hanging impressively, obviously modern, it was a laser pointer.
When I saw this thing, my first feeling was surprise, and then I reacted that there were no outsiders in this place, and if there were, then it was probably left by the Zeng team.
I walked over and took the laser pointer in my hand to look at it, it was cold and cold, it had long since failed, and the rope was already frozen. Naturally, he looked at it and said, "They left it." ”
I said, "That expedition has been here before, right?" They stayed in Little Fuso for a year? ”
Tian Tian nodded and said lightly: "I warned them to leave quickly, but they refused to leave, saying that they would stay and investigate." ”
