Chapter 713 is like a man-made fountain
This cave is very deep, funnel-shaped, and the funnel is narrower and narrower the further you go in, and it is even more difficult to walk if it has not been developed. Fortunately, the cave was damp, but there was no water on the ground.
Because they were going to enter the mountain, Shi Jian and Fifth Prayer specially changed into suitable shoes, which is now a lot more convenient.
I don't know how long I walked, Xiao Yuying said: "It should be in front." I'm not sure if I only came once decades ago or if my dad brought me here. He wanted to see if the spring would come out of the water and what miracles would happen. ”
The result is clearly nothing.
At that time, his father seemed very sorry and sighed.
The cave was dimly lit, and he didn't see his expression, but the sigh seemed to hide something in retrospect.
He didn't think much about it at that time, and he didn't suspect anything, after all, this spring had been dry for I don't know how many years, how could it suddenly come out again? And it is not dried up because of the lack of rain.
Shi Jian listened and felt that maybe there was something really different about this spring, otherwise it would have been dry for so long, and it would be impossible for Uncle Xiao's father to come over to see it and fantasize about some miracle.
Maybe he knows something.
But if he knew something, why didn't he tell Uncle Xiao?
Just thinking about Xiao Yuying's footsteps, he stopped, "Xiao Jane, give me a flashlight." ”
Shi Jian handed over the flashlight, and Xiao Yuying said, "You guys stand in place first, and I'll see where it is." ”
The interval was too long, and he couldn't remember the exact location clearly. He had to look for it first, it looked much narrower than the entrance of the cave, but it was a karst cave in the end, and the area was not small.
Xiao Yuying came back not long after leaving, and beckoned to the person who came: "Here, here!" ”
Following his footsteps, the two of them soon came to the location of the spring, and with the light of the flashlight, they could clearly see the situation of the spring.
There is something special about this spring, not on the ground, but like a fountain made by the viewer, and on the wall of the cave there is a protruding round platform, and on the round platform there is an irregularly shaped stone, and the stone is sunken into it, and the spring water comes out of it.
Doesn't it look like a fountain?
"Uncle Xiao, this ...... It's really not something you guys made? ”
Xiao Yuying laughed heartily, "We don't have the time to do this." Besides, we don't know how long this spring has existed. It's been hundreds of years since the springs dried up! ”
At this point, Jane is not surprised.
Otherwise, it will not affect the river, and then the forest flora and fauna on both sides of the river. This impact is long-term and long-lasting, and it cannot be formed in three or two years, or even decades.
Shi Jian took a flashlight and approached the spring to take a closer look, but he couldn't see anything special about it, and the surroundings were very dim, which was not conducive to them observing the overall environment here.
She scanned the entire cave and guessed that they might have reached the bottom of the funnel by now, for it was very narrow, and the top of the cave was so low that it seemed to be within reach of the cave.
"Uncle Xiao, has there never been direct sunlight here?"
This question stopped Xiao Yuying, and he replied uncertainly: "This ...... It should be, right? ”
When Shi Jian heard his uncertain answer, he also knew that he was embarrassed.
Uncle Xiao came here once in decades, and since this spring has dried up again, the Xiao family will definitely not come here if they are fine, let alone pay much attention to it.
Thinking of the current time, Shi Jian suddenly turned off the flashlight, and the surroundings immediately fell into darkness.
"There is light." The fifth prayer said.
Shi Jian also noticed, "Well, there is light. ”
It's very faint, proving that there is still light energy coming in, and it is also possible that they have just turned off the flashlight and their eyes have not yet adjusted to the environment in the cave.
After a while, even Xiao Yuying could be sure.
The Fifth Prayer had been watching closely, and now he was following the faint light to find the light source, and he quickly found it. It is not difficult to find that the hole is too small and easy to ignore.
The dark light didn't seem to affect his movements at all, and he came to Shi Jian's side with a few precise steps, took her hand, and pointed with the other hand: "Where did the light come in." ”
Shi Jian looked over and found that the position seemed to be exactly the tip of the bottom of the funnel!
Looking at the location of the spring again, Shi Jian suddenly had a bold guess.
Could it be that at some point, the sun shines through the tip of this funnel and falls right on the spring? If so, could the depletion and disappearance of the spring have anything to do with it?
Thinking back to the direction the tip of the funnel was facing, and then to the trajectory of the sun's climb, if her guess was true, it could only have happened in the morning.
It's a pity that it's late, it's already early afternoon.
She said her guess, and the fifth prayer did not question anything, but simply said, "Then come back tomorrow morning!" ”
Before Xiao Yuying could react, they decided the matter.
"Jane, do you confirm the point of this?" Or is there really something different about this spring? But why didn't his dad mention it to him? Grandpa didn't seem to mention it.
"Uncle Xiao, I'm not sure yet, let's talk about it when I'm sure."
"Okay, let's come back tomorrow!"
Xiao Haotian and several Xiao family members were waiting outside, and their necks were about to be stretched before they finally saw people come out!
Xiao Yuying told her about the situation, and everyone couldn't help but look forward to it.
The next morning, before the sun rose, Jane and Fifth Prayer came over, along with Xiao Yuying and Xiao Haotian, and the others stayed in the small town.
After successfully entering the cave, it was time to wait.
In the middle of the way, a snake really crawled out and climbed onto Xiao Haotian's feet, and was thrown away by him!
"It's coming!" Shi Jian reminded.
Xiao Haotian couldn't control the snake anymore, staring intently at the tip of the funnel, only to see a ray of sunlight slowly shooting in from the small hole, straight through the cave, breaking through the darkness in the cave, like a sharp sword.
In the end, the position where the sunlight stayed was not the position of the spring, but slightly higher than the spring, which made people feel a pity that it was inexplicable.
Shi Jian was also a little surprised, she thought that the place where the sunlight came in and fell should be a spring......
"I'm afraid the location of this spring was not what we see now." The fifth prayer said suddenly.
