Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Suspended Plank Road
After this bold guess, no one rushed to go deeper. Now that we've arrived here, it's more important to figure out the shape first. Otherwise, who knows how many dangers await them ahead. After all, a misstep here can lead to eternal hatred.
Qin Zhen looked at the dark depths at this time and said, "Is this plank road that walks against the mountain leading to the top of the mountain?" That's amazing, isn't it? The inside of the summit of this sacred mountain turned out to be empty...... No wonder the blue ice at the top of the mountain is so crystal clear! There is only ice and snow in the dare, and there are no mountains and rocks! ā
"Hmm. On the face of it, it should be like this. It's just that this road will not be so easy to follow. Yu Dong replied lightly.
They tidied up their gear a little in place, and slapped the snow off their bodies. Otherwise, it looks like a couple of snowmen. I had been rolling in an avalanche for so long just now, and there was a lot of snow on my collar and cuffs. If you let them melt closely, it won't be a good situation to freeze when the temperature drops at night.
After everything was cleaned up, several people stood on the edge of the cliff and carefully observed the suspended plank road leading to the depths.
God, I really have to sigh at the miracle of the Creator. This is simply a fight with the first day of Huashan's dangerous long sky plank road. It's just that the Sky Plank Road is thought to be, and this place is pure and natural.
The widest part of the entire stone path is probably the rock platform at the foot, and the narrowest part is estimated to be thirty or forty centimeters. The stone road hangs in the air and sticks to the cliff, and if you walk up, it must feel like walking in the sky! And beneath their feet are thousands of cliffs. Upright as sharpened. Such a scene...... It's hard to be sorry for Lao Gu.
Lao Gu looked at the hanging stone path and obviously trembled, and then pointed to the front and said, "Are you sure we have to go from here?" This thing doesn't look so sturdy! What if it falls into disrepair for a long time? Also, Dong Shao and Jun Xiaoge, can you really be sure that this road leads to the top of the mountain? We finally climbed up, but don't go down the mountain along this ghost road, it's really lacking in virtue. ā
"Why is it that something is so bad in your mouth? Is there something wrong with your eyes or something? This road is obviously winding upwards, how can it be possible to descend the mountain? You, if you are afraid of heights, you will say that you are afraid of heights, there is nothing to be ashamed of, where are there so many reasons and excuses. Qin Zhen glanced at Gu Jie. does not hide the love of falling into the well at all.
Gu Jie also went out. puffed up his chest and said: "Yes, yes, I'm afraid of being tall, how can I be!" There is such a little weakness in this life, you see you are beautiful. ā
looked at Gu Jie like this. Juntian shook his head. It's a pity to say: "I'm afraid of heights, and I can't do it." This road is the only road here. We can't go up anymore, and you won't want to go down, will you? Then there is only one way to go. Juntian's words were like giving Lao Gu a critical illness notice, and Lao Gu's face suddenly turned white.
In fact, I don't blame this guy for being afraid of heights. This stone path is truly a forest of hope. Dengzhi is in danger. It is estimated that a normal person will feel a chill down his spine when he sees it. Especially deep in the belly of the mountain, there is a mysterious and deep image. The light is dim, the rocks are slippery, and there are hardly any favorable conditions.
The coldness inside the Sacred Snow Mountain is already so intuitive. It's a pity that they don't have any choice but to go all out and move forward desperately.
Just when everyone had already decided to start preparing to go, Jiang Qi, who had been observing the instrument on the side, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Dong Shao...... IāI've found something, you can come and take a look. ā
They all knew that there weren't many cases where Jiang Qi could talk like this. So Yudong and Juntian immediately walked to Jiang Qi's side.
Jiang Qi pointed to the high-tech in his hand and said: "Since I came down just now, I have found that the magnetic field signal here changes from time to time, and it is very unstable!" ā
After hearing this, Lao Gu looked at Jiang Qi in surprise and said, "Brother, when have we ever been to a place where the magnetic field is stable?" I'm already very new to signals. After so long of living as a primitive savage, I got used to it...... Why aren't you used to it yet? ā
In the face of Lao Gu's ridicule, Jiang Qi didn't joke, but shook his head very sternly and said: "In places like the places we walked through, it is indeed a normal phenomenon for the magnetic field to be unstable. But the problem is that among the many mixed signals here, there is a fixed pulse. And this signal comes from the depths of the mountain. ā
Hearing this, Yudong and Juntian couldn't help frowning. But Qin Zhen and the others still didn't understand it, so they hurriedly asked Jiang Qi what he meant.
Jiang Qi looked at Qin Zhen and Gu Jie, sighed a little helplessly and said, "After the identification of the instrument, it is proved that this fixed pulse is not naturally formed by the earth's rocks. Pulses that can have such amplitude changes can only be emitted by artificial devices. Other words... It is carried on a person. ā
"Human?!" Gu Jie and Qin Zhen were shocked almost at the same time. Then Lao Gu immediately continued: "Daqi, don't make trouble!" Except for a few of us, where else are the people here? Even if they were, they would have died a long time ago! This is a snow-capped mountain that no one has ever climbed, and there is a bottomless abyss under our feet. How could there be any device on someone else? I guess there's something wrong with that thing in your hand, so hurry up and throw it away......" When Lao Gu said these words, he was obviously a little excited. And his excitement just happened to prove his fear.
Indeed, this is shocking news. The detection of such a pulse means that they are not the only ones here. Whether it's a living person or a ghost, in short, there is something with an artificial device in the depths of this mountain.
This made them hesitate even more when they looked at the stone path in front of them. Because when they get on that plank road, even if they encounter any sudden dangers and situations, there is no room to fight back. In this case, if the thing with the "equipment" suddenly pops up in the middle of the way, they are really completely finished.
At that time, there will be no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth, and there will be no other way but to be caught.
But the facts that Juntian just said are in front of him, this road is the only way, and there is no other choice.
I think that when they were underground in Yadan Devil City, they also encountered ghost signals. But in the end, it was confirmed that it was left by Wang Bin, and he was guiding them in the direction of walking. But now? In the belly of this 10,000-year-old snow-capped Meili Snow Mountain, what kind of "species" is sending that weird signal on a fixed basis?
Yu Dong calmed down and looked at the surrounding terrain again. It can be seen that he also wants to find a path to insurance. But looking around, there are steep rocks that go straight up and down. In desperation, in the end, he had to make his initial choice: "I roughly calculated, from the location where we fell to the temple on the top of the mountain, the distance should not be too far." We have no other way now, you follow me. At the end of this stone path, there must be something hidden. ā
Everyone nodded silently, and then Yudong took the lead and embarked on this thrilling hanging stone path.
As soon as he went up, Yudong instructed: "Be calm, you must concentrate!" ā
They all responded, and then they moved one by one with bated breath, moving on the suspended plank road against the wall. Yu Dong is still taking the lead, followed by Juntian, Qin Zhen, Gu Jie and Jiang Qi. Originally, Qin Zhen wanted Gu Jie to be next to Juntian and them, thinking that it would probably be more secure. But who knows that this product will not move forward alive or dead. In desperation, Qin Zhen walked ahead, on the one hand, he remembered an exemplary role, and on the other hand, he used Lao Gu's Achilles' heel - face to use the agitation method.
Sure enough, after Qin Zhen provoked a few words, Lao Gu, who loved his face like his life, finally walked on this stone path with his scalp twisted.
For a chatter, when nervous to the point of collapse, probably the best way to vent is to speak. So at this time, Lao Gu walked forward with Qin Zhen in a trembling voice: "Brothers...... I've done this difficult action with me! That one... Hold on to your hands... Keep your eyes peeled... The knees should be held up... Keep your feet steady...... If you don't pay attention, you have to roll down the mountain......"
Qin Zhen really couldn't listen to it, and he didn't dare to turn his head, so he turned his back to Gu Jie and said, "Old Gu, can you not be on this terrain with a crow's mouth?" You're talking to distract people and yourself, okay? Can you have a bit of team spirit? ā
Although I couldn't see Lao Gu's expression, I could tell from the voice that he was also helpless. At this time, I only heard him say with a little grievance: "Brother, I don't want to either!" But the problem is, if I don't speak, I can't help but be scared! I don't know what will happen if I'm afraid......"
"Then you should speak." Qin Zhen replied decisively. The heart said that it was better to let this talk a few words than let him be scared out of his mind on this hanging plank road!
In this way, under the condition that Lao Gu was talking and singing more ugly than crying, they insisted on going up and walked out for another 300 meters.
Although nothing unexpected happened in the past three hundred meters, Qin Zhen felt that his arms and legs were already so sore that he was trembling a little. There's no other reason than being too nervous! The muscles that have been tense do not get the slightest relaxation, and the end result is that they can't hold on.
Fortunately, at this moment, Yudong at the front seemed to say to Juntian that there was a place to rest in front of him. When Qin Zhen and Gu Jie heard this, they almost burst into tears! If they continue to "walk in the air" like this, they will have to be nervous to death by themselves even if they don't fall to their death! (To be continued......)
