Chapter 424: Cliff Plank Road

Long Yi turned his head and asked Wen Qingshan: "Mr. Wen, how are you going to get over?" ”

Wen Qingshan poked his head out and looked out, turned his head and said, "Now according to all the evidence we have, the Heavenly Wolf Country is located on the shore of Yinhu Lake, and the location where the signal was sent should be where the Heavenly Wolf Country is located, so we have two ways to get there." ”

"Which two ways?" Ryuichi asked.

"First of all, we can row a boat straight over the lake."

As soon as he said this, I immediately questioned, "But the question is where did we get the ship?" ”

Without waiting for Wen Qingshan to answer, Long Yi on the side said, "It's not a problem, we brought four kayaks." Each kayak can carry four to five people, or 800 kilograms. ”

"Holy! Do you even have kayaks ready? I couldn't help but be taken aback, and suddenly understood, no wonder those special combat team members each carried an oversized backpack, it turned out that in addition to food and ammunition, there were also a lot of other tools prepared in the backpack. Fortunately, our protective suit has a built-in exoskeleton mecha, otherwise we would have to tire people to death with so many things.

Long Yi asked Wen Qingshan again: "Mr. Wen, what is your second method?" ”

"The second way is to walk slowly along the riverside."

"Walking along the riverside?" Long Yi looked at the bottom of the waterfall and said suspiciously: "But below this cliff is the lake, there is no road at all, how to walk?" ”

Wen Qingshan smiled slightly and said, "You take a closer look at the cliff about ten meters above the lake, if I guess correctly, there should be a cliff plank road carved out of the cliff, and this cliff plank road is very likely to lead directly to the Heavenly Wolf Country!" ”

Hearing him say this, everyone looked down curiously, I looked carefully for a while, and really found that the cliff about ten meters high from the lake seemed to be sunken inward, but due to the angle problem, from the position we are now in, it is not sure whether the depression is just a cave mouth or, as Wen Qingshan said, is a cliff plank road carved out.

Long Yi turned his head and asked Wen Qingshan: "Mr. Wen, how do you know that there is a cliff plank road there?" ”

Wen Qingshan said: "Hehe, I guessed, I think that since the Heavenly Wolf Country is located on the shore of the Yin Lake, the most convenient way for the people of the Heavenly Wolf Country to quickly reach the rest of this underground world is to walk along the lakeside, but this underground Yin Lake is surrounded by cliffs, so they can only carve out a cliff plank road on the cliff." ”

After listening to Wen Qingshan's analysis, Long Yi frowned and pondered for a moment, then turned to Chen Biao and said, "What Mr. Wen said is not unreasonable, Captain Chen, otherwise, you send two team members to go down to investigate first." ”

Chen Biao said: "Why bother with that, I think it would be more convenient for us to row over directly." ”

Wen Qingshan said: "Boating in the past is indeed a way, but I am worried about ......" When he said this, he wanted to stop talking, and Long Yi hurriedly said: "Mr. Wen may as well speak up if he has any concerns." ”

"I'm worried that there's danger under the lake."

"Are you worried about those three demon dragons?"

Wen Qingshan nodded: "It's not just the three demon dragons, I wonder if there are other things." ”

Chen Biao said disapprerovingly: "Mr. Wen is a little worried, this lake is so calm, how can it be ......" He didn't finish speaking, only heard a loud sound of "bang", a huge wave set off on the lake, and then, a whirlpool with a diameter of tens of meters appeared on the lake, and it seemed that there was some behemoth stirring underwater.

Chen Biao was stunned for a moment, and swallowed back the words that had already reached his mouth.

As soon as Long saw this, he immediately said: "It seems that there are indeed monsters underwater, unless we have to, we had better not walk from the lake, Captain Chen, you should send someone down to explore the way." ”

Chen Biao did not raise any further objections, turned his head and gave a few instructions to one of the special combat team members, who immediately took out a bundle of ropes, fixed one end of the rope to a large rock, threw the other end off the cliff, and slid down the rope.

He slid into the hollow in the cliff and got in. After a while, he said to us on the intercom: "Come down, there is really a plank road here, it's so long, you can't see the end at all." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, but they didn't expect Wen Qingshan to be right again, Long Yi couldn't help but give Wen Qingshan a thumbs up, and praised him: "Mr. Wen is worthy of being a thoughtful person, which is really admirable." ”

Wen Qingshan just smiled and said very modestly: "Hehe, there are too many Meng, it is inevitable that there will be times when you are wrong, it's not a big deal!" Don't talk so much, let's hurry down. ”

The dragon nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go down in turn, be careful!" ”

We slid down the rope one by one, and when I slid to the position of the depression, I was immediately shocked, it was really a cliff plank road carved out of the cliff, the plank road stretched along the cliffs around the Yin Lake, and there was no end in sight, and this plank road can be described as "magnificent". It was almost six or seven meters wide and nearly four meters high, and the road surface was very smooth.

I couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn, who can carve such a wide plank road on this cliff!" ”

Wen Qingshan was also surprised, he said: "I didn't expect this cliff plank road to be so wide, it's just a wall-hanging road!" ”

"What do you mean by hanging on the wall?" I asked.

Wen Qingshan replied: "The hanging wall highway is the highway carved out on the cliff, the project is very dangerous and difficult, in our country, the largest amount of work, the earliest excavation time is located in the Taihang Mountains of the Xiyagou hanging wall road, this road stretches for nearly eight kilometers, all are Xiyagou people with a hammer, drill, rely on their own hands to dig out a hanging wall road! The hardships of the project can be imagined, and it is even called the ninth wonder of the world! However, compared with the Xiyagou wall-hung road, this cliff plank road is probably inferior in terms of scale and momentum. ”

"With such a wide road, it's not a problem to drive a tank on it, what do these guys want to do when they build such a wide road?" I said confusedly.

Long Yi said: "According to the historical records left by various tribes in the Lop Nur area more than a thousand years ago, the cavalry of the Heavenly Wolf Country at that time often appeared suddenly, as if they were divine soldiers falling from the sky, and caught the opponent off guard. I thought that there must be many entrances and exits to the ground in this underground cavern, and the cavalry of the Sky Wolf Kingdom used this wall-hung road to quickly maneuver and kill the ground through different entrances and exits, making the opponent unguardable. ”

Wen Qingshan nodded: "That's right, and after so many years, this road is still intact, which shows that these guys are very likely to be preparing for war at all times, just waiting for an order." ”

Long Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go over and have a look first!" Wait until Professor Dong is rescued and then make plans. ”

The group ran quickly along the cliff plank road in the direction of the GPS signal.

After walking not far, we found that there was an arched door on one side of the cliff, the arch was about three meters wide, we looked inside the door, it seemed to be a passage, and I don't know where it leads, according to Wen Qingshan's analysis, these arched doors should be the passage to the entrance and exit of the ground. But because our destination was the Land of the Celestial Wolf, we didn't go inside the arch to check.

We stopped by the arch for a moment, and then continued on our way, as we walked, when suddenly there was a piercing screech from above the lake.

Startled by the scream, everyone quickly stopped and turned their heads to look in the direction from which the sound had come from, but because the cave was pitch black and the space was so large, we couldn't see anything despite the searchlights on our helmets.

Wen Qingshan frowned, and whispered, "That voice just now seems to come from an owl monster!" ”

"It looks like we're exposed, everyone get ready for battle!" The dragon ordered.

Everyone had already seen the power of the owl monster, and they didn't dare to slack off, so they immediately formed a half-circle back to back, and clinged to the cliff wall, looking vigilantly in the direction of the lake.

Long Yi shouted again: "Everyone turn off the lights and use night vision devices!" ”

It turned out that the protective goggles we were wearing also had night vision function, and everyone immediately turned off the searchlight on the helmet and turned on the night vision function of the protective goggles.

With the help of night vision, I noticed that the surrounding environment had all turned a dark green, and I couldn't see it very clearly, but the owl monster hovering in mid-air could see it, and of course, it was just a reddish-orange outline.

The owl was hovering in the air twenty or thirty meters away from us, and every now and then let out a piercing scream.

Seeing this, Wen Qingshan whispered: "This owl monster must be summoning its companions, we have to kill it quickly!" ”

"Let me come!" After Chen Biao finished speaking, he immediately raised his gun and aimed at the owl monster in mid-air, Long Yi was just about to stop it, he had already pulled the trigger, and with the sound of a "bang", the owl monster fell in response to the sound and fell into the lake, but the gunfire echoed in the empty environment for a long time.

Long Yi immediately said: "I'm afraid this gunfire can also be heard in the Heavenly Wolf Country, and now that we are completely exposed, we have to leave quickly!" ”

Everyone didn't care about it so much, and immediately ran quickly along the cliff plank road.

After running for a while, we noticed that countless red dots on the surface of the lake were flying towards us.

"The owl herd is out! Everyone, get ready for battle! Long Yi shouted.

Everyone immediately stopped their advance, and once again formed a semicircle with their backs to the cliff wall, and pointed their guns at the swarming owls.

I could feel that everyone was nervous, and although we were equipped with the Super Soldier combat system, our numerical disadvantage was too obvious, and no one knew if we could withstand the attack of such a large group of owls.
