Thirty-eighth, Duxian Bridge
I ran out of the passage in a panic, but the scene in front of me made me kick out for a while, this is a huge karst cave, up and down without seeing the head and tail, I stood in the middle of him, here is a plank road, the plank road circled down like a huge screw, the handrail of the plank road is very low, I walked to the side of the handrail, looking into the boundless darkness below, where the roaring sound of water kept coming.
"It's a waterfall." Huge currents of water cascaded down from the interior of the mountain until they reached this place, and finally all fell under the cave, and in the dark depths it seemed to be a bottomless ruin, swallowing everything.
Endless, I don't know where this place is, but now I stand on top of the waterfall, looking at the magnificent landscape with the only light in my hand, and my heart seems to be galloping with thousands of horses, and the majestic momentum conquers me in the darkness with its only remaining sound.
It should be here, that person said before he died that they came from above, and there is a road below that has not been walked, it seems that this is here, so Hu Yinman should be below? But what exactly is next? I remember they also said that the shadow-like person jumped under this, the "door"?
I grabbed the mask, forget it, don't think too much, I walked down, the scenery of the mountain was changing little by little, in the narrow gap and the intersection of the stones, a kind of white jade rod, curly or bean sprout-shaped calcite crystals were all over the place, the color of the stone was soft like a small flower, but it was a stone, I was a little stunned for a moment, because I knew that this thing was not a stalactite formed by water droplets, but shimmered under the light of the flashlight, like crystal.
At the same time, after I walked to the vertical distance of more than ten meters below, I saw that there was a thin wall formed by such a stone flower in the air under the plank road I had walked before, I stood on tiptoe with a flashlight, looking at the semi-circular thin wall like a rainbow, I couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature. And from this angle, I can see that there is a huge platform on the opposite wall, and the platform is under a boardwalk, and if I go to that place, it seems that I can still climb over the boardwalk.
I took a while to get out of here, and found that the place I was in, now directly opposite the waterfall, and countless splashes of water were raining down on my mask, and I moved a few steps forward to find that the platform here was a cross-section of the rock, with a large part of the traces of artificial excavation. But even so, I still didn't dare to go forward, the water stains polished the plane here like a natural pebble, and I don't know how long it had been, except for the concave surface that was used as a foot on it, and everything else had become a bubble.
However, there are several cap-shaped stalactites growing on the stones of the platform, they are all on the right edge of the platform, which happens to be the farthest place that the water of the waterfall can reach, and there are many water traces dripping down the darkness, and the rows of stalactites are like the iron pillars of the cell, I slowly moved over, looking at those things that are 9 or 10 meters high, their different forms are mainly due to the superposition of the cap-like layer, the heightening, the cracks seeping and dripping water flowing along the toothed brim brim, A gourd-shaped, beaded, melon-bean-shaped stalactite condensed at the lower end of each tooth.
I grabbed the stalactites and looked down, and found that the cave was still deep, where did the water go? And one more thing, when I look at the seemingly unstoppable plank road, I don't realize where these things are going to be built. If there is an underground river below, then this plank road also leads to an underground river? Too much? Now that the moisture was getting heavier and heavier, and a lot of the wood had begun to rot, I climbed over the handrail again and walked up the boardwalk only to find that every step was like ice skating. Especially when I walked to the bottom of the waterfall, the roar of the water completely covered all the sound, you stand under him, watch him flow past your eyes, reach out and touch him, like a canopy, like your world, nothing else.
I don't know how many meters I walked below, there are more and more platforms like before, and the space below is getting bigger and bigger, as if it is going to the center of the earth, now I am in this place is far away from the waterfall, and at the same time the moisture of the water vapor has also decreased a lot, the ground here is even a little dry, and the temperature is obviously a little higher, I looked at a stone on top of my head scattered with stalagmites, stalagmites and stalactites are relatively the same, The same stream of water drip down from the hollow above, forming streaks of colorful water structure, which are beautiful like tassels.
But looking down, I no longer see the spiraling tunnel, but a stone bridge spanning more than 30 meters, the stone bridge is built on the platform with natural boulders, both ends are on the stone rock, there are spots of black shadows on the bridge but because the distance is too far I can't see it at all, but I only have one idea in my heart now, I have reached the bottom, so what is the purpose of building a plank road in this place? And where is the other end of the bridge?
However, it seems that there were so many platforms above before, all of which were manually dug by the ancients in order to build this stone bridge, but due to improper site selection, the location was finally set in this place, and I walked while pulling the handrail to look down, and there was no trace of Hu Yinman, is it here? I took one last look at the burning torch in my hand and threw it down.
The light of the fire shone brightly at the intersection of darkness and water, and little by little, the light fell and ate away at every place. I saw that there was already water under the bridge, and the waterfall flowing down from the mountains filled the cave, and finally formed a huge deep pool below, I don't know when the water would still rise, but looking at the height of the bridge, I think there should be a few drainage outlets below, or an underground river, this place is already hundreds of meters above the ground, and the density of the river is beyond my imagination I raised my head, there is a small hole every few meters, there is a place that cannot be reached by manpower, But there was still a stream of water slowly spilling out of it.
In the dark, the whole mountain made a sound of Xixisuo, the more you go down, the louder the sound is I was wondering if it was the sound of a bat, but I found that there are only a few places in this place where the bat can be hung upside down, I don't know where this sound comes from, but there is only a lot of horror in my heart, after all, the depths of the darkness are unknown, let alone this kind of place. At this time, I was in the middle of the plank road at a high point I saw a karst cave with a diameter of about 4 meters at close range, the inside of the karst cave seems to be a river channel, the river has dried up and there is no water flow, in the middle of the stone there are dripping water, flowing water, infiltrating water and other sedimentary types of water flow, but in the dark I can still hear a little turbulent water sound, it should be the reason for the diversion of the water flow, but I believe that the diversion of the water flow will eventually fall in the deep pool below, I want to look at this karst cave channel full of sediment. Cave sediments are densely distributed, complete in type, and abundant in quantity. More than forty sedimentary forms. There are also many stone flags and stone shields on the shore, which are typical representatives of cave sediments for thousands of years.
This place no longer belongs to the interior of the ancient tomb, or the change of the natural state here can no longer be regarded as something that the tomb owner can imagine, this place should have a door below, that is, the entrance to another place that those people said, but in the end it was filled with flowing water from the mountains, so the meaning of this tomb is not necessary, as for the black shadow, I believe he is not going down for anything, etc., no! I remember they said that they saw the place where the sea and the sky reversed seen by the person who stole Yang Shizhong's mobile phone, no, my own way of thinking is still a little different, this place should not be just a simple area that is encroached upon by nature, I jumped out of this cave, continued to return to the plank road, entered a distance and walked to the bridge, I remembered one thing, could this place be the water inlet of the world below, or a sometimes closed and sometimes open entrance?
Just thinking, I came to the bridge, the bridge with a little arc, I was in a lower position in this place can not see the black shadow on the opposite side, the style of the bridge is a girder-type ancient bridge, the ancient bridge is not very long, so there are only two piers, the piers are not under the deep pool, but together with the granite pillars of each hole, "inserted" in the rocks on both sides, the top of the bridge is a stone block built into a curved arch as the bridge body, although the inclination is relatively large, but the ground is flat, but the middle of this stone bridge is not used by people, Instead, it was protected by stone railings, and it was the sides of it that could really walk.
I walked up slowly, and found that the black shadows I saw on it were actually a group of stone carvings, they were bending down with stone plaques, the water of the deep pool and the water of the waterfall collided fiercely and splashed on the bridge like a bridge in the Milky Way in the sky, those people were like immortals, their demeanor was calm, and their bodies were light, but just when I was looking at it, I suddenly saw that there was a person standing on the stone carving of the bridge, that is, on the top of this Duxian Bridge, that person was none other than the female police officer who led me here, I shouldn't say it's her corpse, but now she's standing in front of me in a lifelike way.
