Chapter 120: The Ice Palace Two Thousand Years Ago
Silent.
After a long time, Song Yun said in a deep voice: "According to what Mr. Jiang said, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built this place because of what Mount Tai Feng Chan saw. 'Yao Ji' convinced Emperor Wu of Han of her identity precisely because of her giant-like size. If I were Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and saw such a giant for the first time, I would be delighted, excited, and feel that my pursuit was real. But ......"
"Will he be afraid?" Jiang Xian said thoughtfully: "He is afraid that such a huge Yao Ji will not be able to grasp it?" Or rather...... When the so-called 'immortals' really came to him, did he feel a crisis? β
Song Yunshen nodded: "So, after Yao Ji died." He couldn't wait to bury the other party here, and even got the nail dragon stake and the tooth fairy. β
No one answered.
No one can answer what kind of mentality Emperor Wu of Han had back then. Maybe...... Song Yunshen was right.
However, Jiang Xian shook his head in his heart, he had an intuition that was almost like a beast: it was possible that this was part of the truth of the matter, but it was by no means the whole story! Not even the most important part!
How...... His gaze looked at his feet.
Go down and find out!
"Ready." He clenched his fists and raised his hand: "Count the number of people, count the equipment, Ling Xiaozi and I will lead the team, I will be the team leader, and Ling Xiaozi will be the vice captain." Obey Ling Xiaozi's orders when I'm away! β
"Prepare to drill holes, drill through here! An hour later, everyone was on the ground! β
Song Yunshen didn't have any objections, and immediately, the entire camp was busy. Jiang Xian began to be in charge of the inventory of all items and the selection of personnel, and many explorers had already walked to the big pit with drill bits and drilled desperately.
"Below is the ice and snow world, and the jacket can't be used. You have to change it to a winter suit...... In addition, there are self-heating stoves, water purifiers, water heaters...... High-calorie food ......"
Jiang Xian quickly picked in the warehouse, and Ling Xiaozi was also a staff officer beside him. Minutes and seconds passed, just after half an hour. Suddenly, a terrible scream resounded throughout the cave!
"Roarββ!!!
I don't know what kind of creature roared, and the whole cavern shook in response! In the next second, the whole earth was trembling wildly! The lights in the cave were flickering on and off, Jiang Xian and Ling Xiaozi immediately stabilized their bodies, and after shaking violently for dozens of seconds, the shaking finally stopped. The two immediately opened their tents and rushed out.
As soon as they rushed out, the two of them gasped together, and in front of them, under the nailed dragon pile of the original ancestral hall, at this moment...... There was a pool of blood! And it's going crazy like a fountain!
The surrounding exploration team members all watched this scene dumbfounded, and the timid ones even had some weakness in their legs. The ground where the dragon stake was originally nailed has been sixteen meters deep. It's as if the ground is alive, piercing through the skin and gushing blood!
Dead.
Even though the surroundings no longer vibrate, no one dared to go up and pick up the drill bit in the pool of blood. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, for dozens of seconds, before someone said in a trembling voice: "Just now...... What is that? β
"I don't know...... Is it the devil? "What kind of beast?" "No way, that kind of scream...... The impact of sonic waves surpasses all living beings! And...... And it's underground! β
"Silence!" Jiang Xian finally opened his mouth, rushed forward in one step, and shot out the exquisite dice, accurately tied the handle of the drill bit, and lifted the drill bit.
"There was no damage." Ling Xiaozi looked at the drill bit, and then at the blood pool below. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and touched it gently, and his eyes lit up: "It's cold." β
Cold-blooded?
In an instant, many clues were juxtaposed in Jiang Xian's mind. He suddenly understood...... What did they dig up.
"Mountain God." He licked his lips, gritted his teeth and whispered, "We dug up the mountain god......"
"Below is the world of ice and snow, and if the mountain god is a giant snake, he must hibernate. The blood is cold again, this ...... Probably really a giant snake! β
Ling Xiaozi looked at him like a ghost: "So...... We woke up the mountain gods? No...... We're giving it a knife, right? And that's it...... Peacefully? β
Jiang Xian's gaze looked at the nail dragon pile: "What do you think?" β
Ling Xiaozi followed his gaze and looked a little inexplicable at first, but he tasted it in two seconds. Then, the more I looked at it, the more creepy I felt.
"Youβyou mean...... These nail dragon stakes ......," he said tremblingly. Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xian said coldly: "That's right...... Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty nailed this mountain god underneath with a nailed dragon pile! β
Ling Xiaozi only felt that there was chaos in front of him, and shook his head fiercely: "How can it survive to this day?!" β
The more Jiang Xian thought about it, the more sure he was of his answer, and said lightly: "Have you forgotten the guardians of the Huo family?" β
It is the tribute paid by the mausoleum keepers for generations that has allowed the mountain god who is hibernating to live to this day!
"How's that nailed! We've all bled it? This...... Is this to penetrate it? It'sβit's clearly right under our feet! β
Jiang Xian shook his head, this is what he couldn't figure out.
How to nail the mountain god?
How to nail the mountain god, and still make a world of ice and snow below?
It's incredible!
"Go on!" He turned to look at the others: "Dig for me!" If you don't dig into the road, you will never withdraw your hand! β
Song Yunshen, who had just been woken up, also appeared in the crypt at some point, shouting: "What are you afraid of, the army is outside the duck pass!" Whatever happens, just run! There is a Shenzhou backdrop! β
The work has finally begun again.
Only this time, the speed was a lot slower, and the more you dig, the more blood gushed out from underneath. The digging team members trembled, and every once in a while, they could hear an earth-shattering roar. The whole mountain was roaring.
After about four or five meters, suddenly, everyone's eyes finally lit up, and a piece of white appeared in front of their eyes.
It was pure ice, not a little bit of anything else. It's so clear that it reflects a person's face. The excavation team members finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Jiang Xian: "Team leader, are you expanding?" β
Jiang Xian shook his head, he couldn't figure it out, why did they dig so it, the blood had already flowed into a pond, but the mountain god just roared angrily and didn't move?
Rash expansion may completely anger the mountain god...... He thought for a moment: "Dig through the ice." The team members who went down to the ground are ready to put on their equipment and go down one by one! β
The rig buzzed, and ten team members were already standing around the pit, each of whom was armed with submachine guns, grenades, and pistols. It can be described as armed to the teeth. Time flew by in silence, and ten minutes later, with a loud "boom", the ice collapsed, revealing the crystal clear ice path below.
The moment the ice tunnel was dug up, the blood water brushed and pulled to form a waterfall. Jiang Xian had already changed into a cold-proof suit and put on a backpack. After tying the lifting rope, the first one jumped down.
Brush Lala...... He was holding a poncho, and blood was running down his side, making the cavern look like a crack in hell. Passing through the surface of the earth more than ten meters deep, the ...... presented in front of his eyes It's a passage made entirely of ice.
The thickness of the ice is about two decimeters. It was dark inside. On the lifting rope, Jiang Xian took out a cold light stick and threw it out, with the sound of dripping and spinning, the faint blue light instantly brought this silent frozen road to life, like an ice elf opened its eyes. Everywhere you look, you can see a faint reflection in all directions, and the azure blue is as clear as the ocean. It is like a slowly floating blue sky, covering the white clouds.
When drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of dreams and the galaxy.
In the cold ice, the bright points of light are like fireflies embedded in it. Ice edge crystals adorn the place as the Ice Queen's throne. Light is the smartest work of art in the throne, turning a thousand times to create a quiet and splendid dream.
Before Jiang Xian could take a closer look, more than a dozen knocking voices sounded behind him one after another, followed by a gasping voice, mixed with unbelievable discussions.
"! It's also so beautiful! "I really didn't expect that there would be an underground glacier in Wancheng? This is definitely a great discovery of physical geography! "If I get out alive this time, my name might make headlines!"
As Ling Xiaozi finally jumped down, everyone kept their mouths shut. Jiang Xian took the lead, Ling Xiaozi was at the end, Jiang Xian made a walking posture, and the group walked forward quietly.
The passage is very long, about two hundred meters, three meters high and three meters wide. Every ten meters you walk, you can see a golden nail dragon stake nailed directly from above, penetrating the ice and submerging into the darkness where you don't know where you are.
Just when he walked more than a hundred meters, Jiang Xian suddenly stopped. He frowned and scratched around with a flashlight several times, then lowered his head, and said to the walkie-talkie in a low voice as he walked: "Fake Taoist, have you noticed...... Something is wrong here? β
Ling Xiaozi's voice came over immediately, and it was also suppressed - their conversation at the moment didn't want to be heard by anyone: "There are some, the color is too dark." β
Jiang Xian simply stopped, he turned to face the ice wall, his hand gently stroked, just behind the ice wall, it was a dark red.
It's not the color of the earth...... His brow furrowed even more. Staring carefully at this dark red wall, his eyes suddenly lit up after looking at it for tens of seconds.
Wall...... It's moving!
Very slight movement, not a twitch, not a sudden throbbing. Instead, it's like ...... The human body breathes the same way and acts naturally.
What the hell is this...... Jiang Xian stared at the wall. Suddenly, a terrifying thought came to his mind, and he turned his head and whispered, "Rig! Fast! β
Someone immediately handed the rig over, and he picked it up and drilled into the wall. Buzz Buzz...... Ice chips were flying, and the ice layer of two decimeters was not thick, and it quickly penetrated the ice, however, Jiang Xian did not stop, and the drilling rig continued to move forward, and the next second...... He trembled!
He saw it...... Where the rig is, the blood that leaks from the "wall". Spread along the ice, forming a weird and twisted pattern!
At this moment, he understood everything.
Because of this understanding, he felt that his hairs were standing upside down. He put down the rig, looked at the position in shock, and said to the walkie-talkie in a trembling voice: "Mountain God ......"
"Huh?" Ling Xiaozi over there obviously didn't understand too much: "What did you say?" β
"Mountain god ......" Jiang Xian seemed to unconsciously repeat a sentence: "Mountain god...... We...... I have already met the mountain god! β
"We ...... It's in its belly!! β
