Chapter VI Metal Houses
Although it was far away, Wen Bufan could clearly see that on the opposite side, a large metal house, revealing a large piece of wall. The house is tightly connected to the mountain. Although the color was very close to the color of snow, Wen Bufan was sure that he had indeed seen a metal house, and the exposed wall emitted a metallic glow.
"What is the gentleman looking at?" Tang Shaochu's question brought Wen Bufan back to his senses.
"Nothing." Wen Bufan knew that with Tang Shaochu's eyesight, he couldn't see that far.
"That is the forbidden land of Yanshan Country, and you are not allowed to enter without the permission of the King of Yanshan!" Tang Shaochu said.
"Oh?" Wen Bufan said casually. But I thought in my heart, forbidden land? Does it have anything to do with me?
A few days later, Wen Bufan made an excuse and came to the valley alone. Wen Bufan walked down the valley to the front of the metal house. This house is much larger than what Wen Bufan saw from a distance. Built on a half-slope. The exposed wall is just the tip of the iceberg. This metal house is supposed to have been built against the mountains, and later covered with snow and ice. After a summer, the snow thinned somewhat, revealing a wall. And this place is inaccessible, if it weren't for Wen Bufan's good eyesight and just being reflected by the light, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found this place.
Wen Bufan, who often climbs the mountain, happened to have a place to use at this time, and when he climbed to the location of the metal house, Wen Bufan was pleasantly surprised to find a gap, and there was a small gap at the junction of the metal house and a mountain wall, just enough for one person to pass. Wen Bufan got in, lit the prepared torch, and took a look around.
"Oh my god!" Wen Bufan blurted out.
It's a modern laboratory. The various experimental instruments remained quietly in their respective positions. Wen Bufan looked at it while walking, although there were not many instruments, but he felt that it was more advanced than the world where Wen Bufan was originally located. On closer inspection, the instruments appear to have been traumatized, more or less broken.
After a while, Wen Bufan found a power switch. Wen Bufan reached out and pressed it. In an instant, the lights of the whole house flickered, and Wen Bufan looked around. The flickering light went out again.
When the lights flickered just now, Wen Bufan saw that there was another door not far ahead, so he walked towards that door.
At this time, on the side behind Wen Bufan, a small lamp that was almost dim flashed, in the wall behind the small lamp. There seemed to be some subtle noises. Wen Bufan heard something, glanced back, and didn't find anything special. So he continued to walk towards the door.
When he was about to arrive, Wen Bufan suddenly tripped up. When I looked down, it was a person! A frozen man!
Wen Bufan squatted down and looked at it, it should be a man. Frozen in ice, his appearance is not very clear. This reminded Wen Bufan of a movie he watched many years ago. Subconsciously looked around, I wanted to find out, is there any shield? Thinking about it, Wen Bufan was happy to himself, and immediately shook his head. Stand up and want to step forward.
As soon as he raised his foot, Wen Bufan felt that it was not good for that person to lie here. Maybe he really has a shield?
So Wen Bufan squatted down again, helped the man up, and prepared to drag him aside. Wen Bufan just grabbed the man's wrist, damn it! There really is a shield! There's still a pulse! Although it was very weak, Wen Bufan still clearly felt the pulse of this person.
A few hours later.
"You're finally awake!" Looking at his red hands, Wen Bufan said to the person who was an iceman a minute ago, and now he had just opened his eyes, "Where's your shield?" ”
The man looked at Wen Bufan in confusion, and asked weakly, "What shield?" ”
"Just kidding." Wen Bufan looked at this person, he was of medium stature, with dark skin and strong muscles. The important thing is that I don't know how long I have been frozen in ice, but I was stunned to wake up and wake up with snow. Wen Bufan looked at his hands, this is amazing!
"Who are you? You saved me? The man asked.
"What do you think? Who are you, and how did you get frozen here? Wen Bufan asked.
"I'm a hunter in the mountains, I don't have a name, everyone calls me Orion. That year, I went into the mountains to hunt, encountered heavy snow, and saw this strange house, so I came in to avoid the wind and snow, and I didn't want the wind and snow to get bigger and bigger, but I encountered an avalanche, and the whole house was covered by snow, and I couldn't get out, and then I fell asleep unconsciously. The man said in fits and starts.
"How did you get in?" Wen Bufan asked.
"Came in through the door." Orion replied.
"Came in through the door?!" Wen Bufan was taken aback.
"yes!" Orion nodded.
It seems that the house was pushed here by an avalanche, and the gap that I got into must have been caused by an avalanche.
"You ran to such a remote place alone? Are there birds and beasts here? Wen Bufan thought that he had come to this place, but he didn't see any birds or beasts. Such a high mountain and snow ridge is indeed not as many wild things as in the deep mountains and dense forests.
Orion seemed reluctant to say more. Wen Bufan didn't ask much, stood up, and continued to look at the door, "You came in from here?" ”
"It's not this door, I can't open this door. It came in from over there. Orion pointed in another direction. Wen Bufan followed the direction pointed by Orion, walked closer and looked, there was indeed a door, which had been deformed, and was tightly attached to the mountain wall. Nothing special around you.
Wen Bufan shook his head and continued to return to his previous position, thinking about how to open the door he had discovered. Although it was pitch black on the other side of the door, Wen Bufan relied on his extraordinary eyesight and vaguely saw that there was a large space inside, and there seemed to be some other things.
At this point, Orion regained some strength and sat up.
"Your physical strength is recovering very quickly, I have something to eat, can I eat some?" Seeing Orion sit up, he casually handed the food he had prepared to Orion. Wen Bufan was slightly surprised. People who have been frozen for so long have recovered so quickly without any rescue!
Orion stretched out his hand to take it, but did not eat. After being stunned for a while, he said, "Do you believe that there are immortals?" ”
"Huh?" Wen Bufan turned his head to look at Orion, "What immortal?" ”
"Actually, I did encounter a heavy snowstorm that year, but I didn't come here to escape the heavy snowstorm." Orion said slowly: "I am a famous marksman in our area, and I often hunt alone in the mountains. Strange to say, that year, I was hunting in the old woods at the foot of the mountain, and I caught a pheasant, and I happened to be hungry at that time, so I roasted the pheasant. I still can't forget it, after eating, I suddenly felt feverish, I couldn't stand the heat, I just wanted to find a cool place, and unconsciously came to the side of the Snow Mountain. Then I saw a beam of light, and in the direction of the light, I came to this magical house, and the light came out of this magical house. The closer I got to this amazing house, the less uncomfortable I felt, and the less uncomfortable I felt. I walked into the house, and there were strange things, all kinds of magical things that I had never seen before, and so many stars shining. I thought I had come to the place where the gods lived. Oh yes, I saw a very strange symbol at the time, it attracted me, I was about to press it, but it ended up being an avalanche. ”
The more Wen Bufan listens to it, the more strange it becomes, what is going on? Looking at the Orion's costume, although it is not the same as Tang Shaochu's, it is an ancient costume at a glance, and through Orion's opinion of this metal house, it is obvious that the degree of civilization in this era is not very high. Thinking that Tang Shaochu pretended to be sick before, everyone thought that he was taken by demons, and he thought that the people who came to this Yanshan country still believed in ghosts and gods, so he asked: "What immortals do you have in Yanshan Kingdom?"
Who knew this question, Orion's eyes were blindfolded: "What 'Yanshan Country'?" ”
"Isn't this Yanshan Country?" Wen Bufan asked.
"Here? This is Kitahara! Orion said.
"Kitahara?" Wen Bufan looked at Orion, "What Beiyuan?" ”
"Kitahara is the name of the place where we live!" Orion replied.
"Isn't this continent the Northern Regions?" Wen Bufan looked at Orion, thinking that maybe the people in the mountains didn't know much, so he didn't continue to ask. Continue to explore that door again, leaving Orion alone there thinking about what is the 'Yanshan Country'? And what is the Northern Regions?
Wen Bufan finally felt a little hungry, but he still couldn't open the door. So Wen Bufan wisely decided, go back to the Tang Mansion first, prepare more dry food, and then come here for a long time and hard work, until this door is opened, maybe the other side of the door is a great and bright world! Thinking of this, Wen Bufan immediately packed up his things. After a few words of instruction to the Orion, he was about to leave. When he walked to the entrance of the cave, he saw that Orion was still there in a daze, so he asked, "Do you want to go with me?" ”
Orion, perhaps just waiting for this, agreed, and stood up.
When the two of them got out of the gap, the small lamp, which was almost dim before, flashed again, and a light flashed from the inside out on the wall behind the small lamp. If Wen Bufan was still in this metal house at this time, he would definitely find that there was a lying bed in this wall, and there was a person lying on the bed.
The two returned to the Tang Mansion, and Wen Bufan told Tang Xi that Orion was a friend of his, and he happened to meet and wanted to harass the Tang Mansion for a few days. Master Tang naturally agreed.
After nightfall, Wen Bufan comfortably soaked in the big wooden barrel, thinking about the things of the day. Judging by Orion's various performances along the way and after arriving in Twilight Town. Orion had never been to Twilight before. And the eyes of the Orion are novel. On the way, Wen Bufan asked Orion about the previous village, and Orion couldn't find the way.
Slowly, Wen Bufan felt that the time for this Orion to be frozen was definitely not short. I'm afraid it's been frozen for a lot longer than the one with the shield.
Thinking about it, Wen Bufan fell asleep, and in his sleep, Wen Bufan saw that his parents were busy in the kitchen, cooking their favorite meals. From time to time, he said, "Hungry, right?" It'll be fine in a while! ”
Wen Bufan in his sleep didn't know that a line of hot tears slipped quietly from the corners of his eyes.
