Chapter 126: Under the Mountain
Qingyang City is known as ten miles of flowers, and it is the largest city on the north bank of the Qingjiang River. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Such a big city is by no means comparable to a small place like Qiantou Village.
But looking down from Niu Hao's location, the towering city walls, the staggered streets, and the buildings with houses in the city have all become small and indistinguishable. Only a boxy silhouette remains, so small that it seems to stretch out the palm of one's hand to cover it whole.
Niu Hao opened his mouth and looked at Qingyang City under the clouds, not knowing what to say to express the shock in his heart.
"Do you see that shiny one?"
Kiyohei asked, pointing farther away.
"That's Qingjiang. ”
The wide Qingjiang River has now become a thin line. If it weren't for the fact that the river reflected the sunlight and reflected the bright and shining light, it would be impossible to tell the difference.
After a while, Niu Hao came back to his senses.
Qingyang City, which was overlooked from a high place, became small and worthless. It can only show that Kongming Mountain is unattainable. It doesn't prove that we're in heaven right now.
Overlooking Qingyang City under the clouds, Niu Hao still refused to believe the fact that he was in the sky. Qingping was a little deflated.
Just because, standing on the top of the cliff and seeing Qingyang City, just because looking down from the cliff, Qingyang City is so small that it can be covered by a slap on your hand, so you believe that we are now in the sky?
Niu Hao didn't believe it.
Niu Hao climbed up the stone steps up the mountain one by one. There is no one foot in the middle and riding the clouds. How did you climb all the way to the sky?
Niu Hao craned his neck and looked down the cliff.
If you take a leap from here, you might even fly into the sky.
Because the mountain wind blowing against the cliff is strong, it can blow you away at once and blow it to the sky.
Qingping's expression became solemn, and he said:
"Today, I must prove it to you, I didn't lie to you and didn't brag to you. But then you're going to do what I tell you to do. Because if you make a mistake, you will lose your life. ”
Good.
Niu Hao nodded at Qingping.
Today, I must also find out if I am already in the Tianshan Mountains. On this Kongming Mountain, is there any path that can be found by me to go down the mountain privately!
Kiyohei pulled up the big rope, untied the strap around his waist, wound the buckle around the rope, and tied it around his waist along with the rope.
Doing so is equivalent to an extra layer of insurance. Even if you slip and miss when you drop down the rope, you won't fall off the cliff.
"Wait for me here. ”
Kiyohei said, grabbing the rope and sliding down the platform where he was standing.
Niu Hao stretched out his neck and looked down. Qingping's figure quickly disappeared under the platform where he was standing.
The rope that hung down was taut all the time, swaying back and forth from time to time. It shows that Qingping is still hanging on the rope and is still sliding down.
After a long time, Qingping's voice came from under the cliff:
"Follow my example, come down. Be careful!"
Niu Hao also untied the belt around his waist, made a rope buckle like Qingping, and tied the rappelling rope to himself. Gripping the rope in both hands, he slowly slid down the cliff.
Leaving the platform at the foot of the station, the cliff becomes steep. But instead of standing outward into a slope, it narrows inward to form the bottom of a round pot.
Therefore, as soon as Qingping slid off the platform, the figure quickly disappeared.
Niu Hao clutched the rope tightly with both hands, stretched out his toes and tentatively stepped on the raised stone wall. The body hangs upside down.
Niu Hao turned his head to look to the side, and the cliff on one side narrowed inward, harvesting the bottom of the pot. Niu Hao turned his head to the other side, and the other side was the same.
I'm not going to be an ant crawling down the hot pot.
Niu Hao also wanted to turn his head to look under him, and a clear voice came from under him:
"Slow down, slow down, don't rush. ”
The place where Qingping stood was a shallow hole carved out of the cliff wall. Curl up in it to rest your feet for a while.
Niu Hao shrank into the shallow hole dug out of the cliff wall, poked his head out and looked down.
The steep inward slope of the cliff wall continued downward, sinking into the dark clouds of smoke.
That cloud of smoke is still more than ten zhang away from where Niu Hao and Qingping are. Wrapped around the cliff, it rolled like a flame rising under a wood pot.
It's just that it is not an orange tongue of fire that rolls out, but a black mist that presses down on the dark color.
The dark fog obscures the view, making it impossible to see the end of the cliff.
If you can't see the end, you can't naturally bite the bullet, and Kongming Mountain is floating in the sky.
What if, Kong Ming Mountain is supported by a stone pillar of optimus. It's just that the clouds and mist obscure the Optimus Pillar, making people think that it is floating in the sky.
But in fact, as far as Niu Hao himself is concerned, he doesn't believe that there will be any optimus stone pillars that support Kongming Mountain as if floating in the sky.
Qingping held the rope in one hand, leaned out, looked at the dark mist, and whispered:
"It is said that there are demons captured from all over the world by the immortal chiefs of Kongming Mountain. ”
Niu Hao turned his head to look at Qingping.
"I just heard. ”
Kiyohei explained. There was no look of certainty on his face.
"Those demons who have formed cultivation, ghosts who do evil, as long as they are bumped into by the immortal chief of Kongming Mountain, there is only one way to die. Heaven is good, so the immortal chief of the court will also open up to those demons and monsters, as long as they are willing to bow to the law, they will be sunk to the bottom of the mountain. ”
Qingping said, pointing to the dark and dreary clouds below the mountain.
"Those demons and monsters were sunk to the bottom of the mountain, and together they carried the empty mountain and flew into the sky. ”
Niu Hao looked at Qingping, and finally couldn't help but ask:
"Who are you listening to?"
This kind of story told to children is understandable if it comes from the mouths of children in the village.
We, who are now in Kongming Mountain, will we still believe such deceptions?
Qingping looked solemn and said:
"You believe me, it's all true. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Niu Hao, and Qingping said again:
"I came to collect the medicine again, and the rope was a little longer, and it was too deep and too close to the black fog, and I heard a sound from the depths of the black fog. ”
Niu Hao glanced at the dark and turbulent clouds more than a dozen feet away, listened with his ears pricked up, and then cast his eyes on Qingping.
Qingping snorted and laughed, and said:
"You want to say, you can hear it here, the whining sound sounds like someone is crying, right? It was the sound of the mountain wind. What I heard was not the sound of the mountain wind, nor the whining cry. ”
Kiyohei said and stopped, looking at the black mist churning below the cliff. 半晌 says:
"I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, I was so scared that I peed my pants at that time. ”
When Qingping said this, his face turned pale, and his lips couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Niu Hao looked at Qingping and turned his head to look at the dark clouds below the cliff.
Qingping won't lie to him, Niu Hao believes it. At that moment, Qingping was really frightened. Frightened by the sound coming from the depths of the black mist.
