Three hundred and forty-seven wind kettles
According to legend, in ancient times, the mountain god of Zhongshan was named Candleyin. When he opens his eyes, it is day, and when he closes his eyes, it is night. One breath and one breath can generate wind, and the body of this mountain god is thousands of miles long. The divine power of Candle Yin is very similar to that of Pangu, and he is a descendant of Pangu.
In the Yin Shang era, the Qiqi people had three eyes, and often drove a speeding car to invade China, and Shang Tang had no good plan to order people to find the candle yin, hoping to get the power of Pangu to drive away the Qiqi people. Soon after, Shang Tang finally found Candle Yin, but Candle Yin was not a mountain god, but a fierce beast.
When the eyes of this giant beast were opened, they could exhale and ride the wind, and Shang Tang couldn't get close at all. Later, Shang Tang used the fruit of the ancient god tree to lure Candle Yin, and Candle Yin ate the fruit and fell asleep groggy.
Shang Tang used a knife to gouge out Candle Yin's eyes, and Candle Yin lost his eyes and lost his divine power, so he disappeared underground and never appeared again. Shang Tang got the candle yin eyes and made a huge wind kettle, when the Qi Qi people came in a flying car, they used the wind bottle to blow the flying car, and the Qi Qi people did not dare to go to the land of China.
In the huge stone chamber where everyone was located, the huge urn placed horizontally on the ground could breathe out a gale of wind, and the "wind kettle" made of candle yin eyes in the legend of Bensaina.
Han Daring told everyone the stories he had seen in ancient books.
Fan Tong said:
"Candlesticks, huh?"
Wang Weihan said:
"Legend has it that it is an ancient mythical beast, which has been recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"! It's like a long worm, but it's huge! ”
Fan Tongyi looked at Han Da'er with a puzzled face and asked:
Han Tou'er, what do you mean, what is this big jar...... A windpipe? …… That's right! Don't you believe in ghosts and gods? ”
Han Daring said:
"Ghosts and gods are certainly deceitful, but some legends are not necessarily fake! Often, legends are based on some reality.
The ancients had limited comprehension, and even celestial phenomena such as thunder and solar eclipses could be regarded as oracles, and after seeing them, they added their own colorful interpretations, and they were passed down as myths. Later generations will continue to polish on this basis, and it has become an ancient myth that has become a god today. ”
Wang Weihan also said:
"Although the technology of the ancients was not as good as it is today, they were able to create some incredible things! Objects such as crossbows from the Three Kingdoms period, wooden oxen and flowing horses......"
Fan Tong interjected:
"Yes, yes! That's right, I heard from the commentary, and it said that there is a man named Lu Ban, who seems to be a carpenter, and he can make a flying bird out of wood, what is it......"
Chen Feiyang said with a smile:
"Okay, I can't see that you are quite cultured, and you still know Luban! Wooden birds can fly, that's all made up by the gentleman who said storytelling! You can believe it! ”
Fan Tongzi glanced at Chen Feiyang, took out another baked cake out of nowhere, and chewed it on his own. casually asked: "Let's not boil the swim bladder with a few broken jars here (boiling the bladder is the meaning of entanglement in the Tianjin dialect), such a big thing can't be moved, by the way, can we wait for the wind to be stronger for a while, use the wind to support us, and then go back to it?" ”
As he spoke, he looked up at the big hole in the top of the stone chamber.
Mei Ruohong Road:
"The speed at which we fell just now, plus the time, is estimated to be at least a thousand meters away from the ground!
The strong wind from this giant urn can at most slow down the falling speed and not hurt us, but it is impossible to rely on this air flow to bring us up again! ”
Fan Tongyi couldn't go back when he heard it, the baked cake in his hand almost fell to the ground, and he asked with a mouthful of baked cake crumbs:
"What's the matter? Can't go back? ……”
Then he wept and said with hatred:
"I said I shouldn't come! It's good this time, it's not so deep to be buried alive! ”
Chen Feiyang said:
"Don't make a fuss about it first, it's quite an old person, you haven't been there yet, so you can say frustrating words first. You've got the energy to chisel the stone crystal before! ”
Han Daring said:
"As far as I can see, when we came, except for the Qingyu Gate and the man-hunting vine, the others looked like relics built in an earlier period, specially used to lead here, probably for sacrifice or some other purpose. If you can get in, you will be able to get out. It is impossible to have only imports, and those who build them may not necessarily repair their exports! ”
Wang Weihan also said:
"I agree with you!"
Fan Tong listened to what they said, and immediately turned his sadness into joy, swallowed all the unchewed crumbs in his mouth, and asked with a wipe of his mouth:
"Where's the exit?"
Han Daring said:
"I didn't repair it, I don't know where it is, look for it!"
Fan Tong looked around towards the stone chamber, lowered his head to avoid the mouth of the raised urn, turned on his flashlight, and looked towards the gap between the two giant urns. But when I saw that there was only a stone wall behind the gap, I couldn't help but be disappointed.
Ye Ling's mind was astute, and he approached Mei Ruohong and asked:
"Sister Mei, do you have powder?"
Fan Tong heard it and muttered:
"It's time, there's still time to wipe the powder......"
When Mei Ruohong heard that she was asking for powder for herself, she instantly understood what she meant, shook her head and said:
"How can you come out to explore the cave with powdered ......?"
He glanced at the ground.
Ye Ling looked down and saw that there was a lot of dust and fine soil, which was carried back and forth by the indoor atmosphere, so he and Mei Ruohong each reached out and grabbed a handful of dust, walked to other gaps between the giant urns, and scattered the dust in the air with a raised hand.
Han Daring naturally understood the intentions of the two, and Chen Feiyang was also very smart and said:
"Good way!"
I saw that the dust spilled by Mei Ruohong's hand was scattered and scattered by the indoor atmosphere, while the dust spilled by Ye Ling flew towards the gap between the giant urns in front of her.
Ye Ling immediately said:
"There's a road over here!"
Fan Tong was puzzled, and asked:
"What do you mean? If you scatter soil and ask for directions, you might as well throw your shoes! ”
Chen Feiyang sighed and said:
"You think it's superstition, the soil is blowing over there, it means that there is a ventilated exit over there, ancestor!"
Ye Ling took the lead and had already walked towards the gap. The space between the urns was like a corridor, wide and narrow enough for two people to pass side by side. Wang Weihan also followed into the gap. The others then walked inside.
Walking into the gap passage, Han Daring looked up and found that the bottom of these giant urns was connected to the wall of the stone room, and there was a crack in the wall, which was also bubbling with wind.
He thought to himself that behind the wall of this stone chamber, there might be some kind of wind cavity gushing strong winds, using the air duct of the stone wall to continuously accumulate air pressure, and then increase the pressure from the bottom of the urn through a thin tube, and finally blow out of the mouth of the urn. In this way, the wind can be used to catch the person who has fallen from the hole above.
The crowd passed through the gap and saw that there was only a stone wall in front of them, and found that behind the two giant urns, there was a long and narrow passage. Ye Ling was shining a flashlight into the channel, and the strange thing was that even if there was no flashlight beam, the channel was not very dim, and it seemed that something was shining brightly.
Wang Weihan didn't wait for Ye Ling to walk into the passage, he had already turned on the flashlight and walked inside, and the others followed along the passage.
The further you walked, the passage gradually widened, and after a few dozen steps, it was already able to accommodate four people walking side by side. The passage is long, but not very dark. Han Daring noticed that clusters of stone crystals were growing everywhere in this tunnel.
These stone crystals are bundled on the left and on the right, some are long, some are short, some are sharp, and some are flat. There are even some stones that emit a shimmer next to the stone crystal, which seem to contain fluorite components, although they are not as bright as the fluorite balls that Wang Weihan used to mark along the way, but the shimmer light on the stone crystal next to it actually refracted a blue halo, illuminating the otherwise dark passage.
The cold and blue light makes people chill from the bottom of their hearts when they look at it, the legend says that Shi Jing grew in front of the gate of Hades, and everyone is now in the depths of the earth, but it seems that they have really arrived at the underworld.
All the way forward, I saw a tiny white dot hanging in the distance, and it was not dark in the passage, so if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice it at all.
Han Daring said in his heart, that point of light should be the exit of the passage.
They walked a few hundred meters further, and the light in the distance grew stronger. Not long after, the front suddenly opened up, and there was a large stone room, the front of the stone room was a doorway, and the light penetrated from the outside, making it appear that the outside of the doorway was white.
There are a lot of utensils and bottles and cans piled up in the stone room. These objects vary in form, but most of them are covered with patina, while others are jet-black.
Fan Tong originally saw these artifacts, and couldn't help but be greedy, but when he walked over and saw the patina on the utensils, he knew that most of these artifacts were bronze, and he couldn't help but be interested.
Casually:
"It's all broken copper and iron, and it doesn't look like it's worth much!"
Wang Weihan picked up a human-shaped bronze lampstand and said:
"In fact, China's precious metal production has been very scarce since ancient times, and most of the gold and silver artifacts have flowed in from the West. In ancient times, smelting technology was not developed, and bronze was a heavy weapon at that time, comparable to gold.
The bronzes here are not like many counterfeit fakes in antique shops, these are genuine antiquities, not only have high historical value, but also sell for a higher price! ”
When Fan Tongyi heard this, his attitude immediately changed greatly, and he quickly took the lampstand from Wang Weihan's hand and put it in his backpack. Wang Weihan's family has a big business and doesn't care about these utensils. He stood up and walked to the light of the stone chamber doorway.
Fan Tong picked up a black artifact, which looked a bit like a bird with wings spread, heavy in his hand, but he didn't know what kind of metal it was.
Han Daring glanced at it and said casually:
"The oxidized and blackened ones are all precious metals, probably gold and silverware, you have copied it!"
Fan Tongyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly wiped the clothes on his body on the utensils, and it didn't take long to find out some yellow and golden colors, he quickly bit it with his teeth, and he could leave a faint tooth mark, and he couldn't help but cheer.
"Golden! Golden! Nothing short of real gold! ”
Chen Feiyang and Li Huan saw that there were still a lot of gold and silver utensils on the ground, and they couldn't help but glance at it a few times, Fan Tong hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled it, and immediately said in his mouth:
"Whoever sees it first counts!"
Li Huan and Chen Feiyang looked disdainful, swallowed their saliva, waited for Fan Tongyi's eyes with disdain, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Mei Ruohong and Ye Ling didn't look at it, leaving only Fan Tong humming a little song and stuffing those utensils into the backpack.
Everyone walked out of the doorway, and everyone squinted and slowly adjusted to the light outside. After being in the dark environment for a long time, although I have been holding the water moon lamp with a flashlight, it is still not very bright, and my eyes are a little uncomfortable at first glance.
Fan Tong packed his backpack and walked out lastly, as soon as the light came out of the hole, he rubbed his eyes and said:
"Didn't you say we'd go underground again? It's so bright, are we back on the ground?! ”
Han Daring said:
"Open your eyes and see!"
Fan Tong slowly opened his eyes according to his words, and the surrounding scenery gradually appeared in front of him in the light!
I saw that the place where everyone was a small platform on the cliff, the platform was about ten meters wide, but under the platform was a very large space. It's just that the stratus clouds are thick and foggy, covering the entire space, and it will not disperse for a long time, and when the race is on the top, the sea of clouds and smoke seen is general, vast and peaceful.
From time to time in the distance, there are flocks of birds, passing through the sea of clouds, and everyone can't help but be dazzled, it is really like coming to the legendary Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Under the agitation of the spirit, there was an urge to jump towards the sea of clouds.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot of stalagmites growing upside down at a height of one or two hundred meters, reminding everyone that it was not the sky above their heads, I am afraid that no one would have seen that everyone was in a strange and grand underground world!
