When Mu Mangzi and Wu Cheng looked back, they were Narcissus and Mengyu.

The second woman caught up with a small gasp.

Wu Cheng craned his neck and asked, "When did you come back?" and they all came back?" His first concern was that his plans had been ruined.

Narcissus smiled: "When will we come back, we won't go at all!"

Wu Cheng felt a double joy in his heart, and said, "It turns out that you didn't go either, but you didn't see you yesterday?"

Narcissus said: "Yesterday, we locked ourselves in our room. ”

It turned out that Narcissus felt embarrassed to see her "fiancé" Song Qingqing, and she was even more afraid of going to Wanglongzhuang, so she inevitably talked about her marriage with him, so she lied and said that she had a headache, and when she saw that she didn't go, she didn't go.

Talking about it, since they lied, they had to stay in the room for a day, bragging about their cattle and doing their manual work.

When I got up this morning, there was no other interesting person at home, and the two women heard that Mu Mangzi and Wucheng were at home, so they came to talk to them, but they didn't see anyone, and they heard the water people like the old ox say that the two people wanted to enter the hole in the center of the earth, and they couldn't persuade them. Therefore, the two women were both worried and excited.

Mu Mangzi said: "You have a headache, go back to recuperate!"

Yu Mengyu smiled: "I don't have a headache. Some people not only have headaches, but also heartaches, which together are heart headaches. ”

Narcissus said: "Whether it hurts or not, if you want to enter the cave in the heart of the earth, we must go together!"

Wu Cheng said: "Aren't you afraid of monsters?"

Narcissus said: "It's better to have a monster, I just watched him swallow you alive!"

He said, "Mo Hu said, you have to be taboo, if you don't take us, you won't be able to go!"

Mu Mangzi was puzzled: "How do you say this?"

Yu Mengyu smiled: "He doesn't know. ”

Narcissus and Wucheng didn't understand.

Mu Mangzi thought that this time he entered the cave was fruitless, and there was little hope, plus there was a ghost in his heart, he couldn't wait to walk with Yu Mengyu, where would he refuse, and nodded.

All the way uphill.

Mu Mangzi walked second, and said as he walked: "According to the rules of the ancestors, you must first swear a poisonous oath: always keep the secret of the Dragon Treasure Pit." ”

Wu Cheng walked in the front and said, "Before a woman is born, she wants to give birth to a baby, and she swears." ”

Narcissus exclaimed: "It turns out that you are here to find a way out?" Mu Mangzi knew that he had leaked his mouth, and said with a smile: "Can you find it?" Knowing that the rooster does not lay eggs, he prefers to press it in the chicken coop, is your brother so stupid?"

Yu Mengyu smiled: "Not necessarily!"

Narcissus affirmed, "Of course not! However, before entering the cave, it is always good to ask for the blessing of the gods and ghosts." ”

Wu Cheng said: "I can't help but be jealous, it's good luck, why bother so much." ”

Mu Mangzi said: "Forget it, it's not to get out of the Dragon Treasure Pit." ”

After a short time, they arrived at the entrance of the cave, and Wu Cheng and Mu Mangzi worked together to open a heavy log door and smell a damp smell.

Entering the cave, this place is more spacious, the light is still brighter, there are narcissus insistence, Mu Mangzi, Wucheng put down their bags, together with two women, kowtowed a few heads in front of the stone statue of the earth god (earth only female mountain ghost), eagle god, Yuzi, Zheng Bai, begged for blessing, and began to light torches.

Narcissus asked Wu Cheng, "How many torches have you prepared?"

Wu Cheng said: "Don't you know how to count? ”

Narcissus said: "The thief spider on the beam of the house is self-righteous!"

Wu Cheng and Mu Mangzi each continued to carry a bag, and the two women were empty-handed.

Wu Cheng took the lead with a torch, followed by Narcissus, Dream Talk, and Mu Mangzi last.

The road in the cave, in the middle of the stones, is straight or curved, and even circling, although it is a downward trend, it is not a steep nose, there are often chaotic stones and strange stones in the road, and there are strange stones on the road wall from time to time.

The four of them were emboldened, and went down cautiously for a long time, to a small platform, and then a short flat road, and then downhill, all of which were the same paths.

Suddenly, Wu Cheng shouted, "What kind of monster is that?"

The three people behind him looked over, and there was a beast, shaped a bit like a piglet, with a pair of chicken claws.

The monster barked like a dog.

Mu Mangzi said: "It's like a badger." ”

As soon as Mu Mangzi finished speaking, the monster was like playing a game of peek-a-boo, poking its head out from behind one rock, and then behind another. The monster played a few times, and stopped playing with the explorers.

And when he had gone on another journey, he saw a bird in the shape of a owl, and a face like a man, as if it had four eyes and ears.

Wu Cheng said: "This one is even weirder. ”

Yu Meng said: "This, it is estimated that it is called 顒." ”

Narcissus said, "I look like an owl." ”

Along the way, you can also see some monsters. When they saw more, they were not surprised, and then they saw pangolins, abdominal insects, etc.

Continue walking, saw a large animal fossil, shaped like a cow, weighing about a thousand catties, Yu Mengyu went up and touched a half-kneeling foot, and said: "This is probably a stone that Kui Niu has changed." "Kui Niu, some say it's a bison.

After going down a short distance, I saw fossils such as rhinoceros, ews, hole dragons, corals, etc., and there were many types.

Narcissus said: "It seems that the further down you go, the only thing you can do is turn into stone, and there will be no living creatures." ”

Before he could take five steps, he called out "That's not alive?"

The three of them hurriedly looked, only to see that not far ahead, there was indeed a monitor lizard, crawling on the road, raising its head.

Wu Cheng said: "This, I'm afraid I'm going to eat people!" quickly drew his sword.

Several people stopped to observe.

Mu Mangzi picked up an oval stone the size of an egg. He had a good throwing technique, but he didn't want to hit it on the head, so he threw it lightly, right on the monitor lizard's back.

The monitor lizard screamed and slowly got up, and several people became nervous.

Wu Cheng said: "You guys slowly retreat!" "The sword is ready to kill it if it is in danger."

The lizard crawled slowly for a dozen or so steps, turning into a side road.

The four of them waited for a while, but did not see it come out, and it was estimated that they had climbed far before continuing to move forward.

Mu Mangzi had been paying attention to the situation, and then said, "I have been in the Longbao Pit for so many years, and I have never seen so many monsters. Zheng Rumeng, did you recruit it?"

Walking in front of him, he said, "What do you mean by this?"

"You and I went all the way to the Dragon Treasure Pit, and I saw a lot of monsters. ”

Yu Mengyu smiled: "If you say this, I want to blame it, with you, I have seen monsters many times." ”

Wu Cheng was at the front and said, "You two are monsters themselves, I think you two recruited them together." ”

Narcissus echoed, "I think so." ”

Yu Mengyu smiled: "I don't believe that the same mother is born, one is a pig, and the other is a dog." ”

Mu Mangzi said: "Things gather like like. ”

Along the way, I also saw a lot of strange things, so I won't go into detail about them one by one.

- Later generations have many different explanations for the various strange animals and fossils they saw in the cave in the center of the earth at that time, as well as a small number of plants, as well as strange plants that can still be found today, such as the theory of slow evolution of the polar regions (the theory that Tiankeng is a cathode land), the theory of inbreeding, the theory of sea and land changes, and so on.

But there was no broad consensus, the only thing that was the consensus was that most of the species they saw at the time had since gone extinct (or mutated), like Konglong.

However, modern locals have a new theory: just like the Shenlongjia, when the Quaternary glacier appeared 1.7 million years ago, the sinkhole was not buried by the ice and became a refuge for some creatures, so there are still precious plants such as goose claws called living fossils.

Without further ado, those who are interested will go to investigate and study by themselves.

The four torches were almost finished, and when they arrived at a place, the travertine collapsed, and a large beam stone on the top was obliquely pressed under the rocks......

The four guessed what the word was.
