there is a zombie in love with you
Chapter 15
Before they got close, they knew they were going in the right direction.The originally uneven walls of the cave were chiseled square and flat, and even the stalactites that should have existed on the roof of the cave were dug out and repaired into an arc-shaped roof.
But what surprised them was the large and large paintings on the wall.The left and right sides describe the same war, but the pictures are different, and the sky is faithfully presented right up to the top, making people feel like they are in it.The background of the mural is the magnificent and endless mountains, which should be Changbai Mountain according to the shape of the mountain.
As the boat continued to move forward, a figure appeared.
A man stands proudly on a horse, wearing a fur-trimmed mandarin jacket and a fur hat, with a rough and mighty face.Behind is still Changbai Mountain, and the ground on which the horse is stepping is the endless grassland.On the grassland a little further away were countless crowds, bowing down to the man on horseback.The costumes of the people were all kinds of styles, and it could be seen that they were a mixture of different races.
The next mural depicts the mighty army and horses about to break through the city gate.The soldiers defending the city fled, and their weapons and armor were scattered all over the place.The soldiers all wore dark round-breasted right lapel coats, knee-length red looped jackets exposed at the hem, and black soap towels were tied on top of their heads.
On the side that attacked the city, some wore leather armor and some wore iron armor. The man in the front was riding a horse vigorously.Most of the figures are not wearing iron armor, but long mandarin jackets with double-breasted buttons and slits on all sides, holding spears or bows and arrows in their hands.The most special thing is that their hair is all shaved, leaving only a small strand of long hair blowing in the wind.
Yu Chengjun took a closer look with a lamp.Although the murals have long faded due to age and moisture, the exquisite painters of that year can be vaguely seen.
"The first one should describe Nurhachi's unification of all tribes in the Northeast..." Yu Chengjun squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully. "This one depicts the mural of the Manchu Qing attacking the Ming Dynasty. The defenders are wearing typical Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers' costumes." , the other side is Manchu, the one in front should be Huang Taiji..."
"Manchurians?" Ye Li asked suspiciously, "Why would Manchurians have the hairstyle of the Huns in video games? Didn't they shave half of their heads and braid the back of their heads?"
The old ghost stared intently at the mural and said: "In the early days, the Manchus shaved a lot, and they could only keep hair the size of a copper coin, which was called "money rat tail". Later, the area was gradually increased, even in the time of Jiaqing Daoguang. It’s at most four or five copper coins. It’s not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that half-shaved ones appeared in TV dramas. For the sake of aesthetics, it’s impossible for the actors to leave money rat tails.”
Both Ye Li and Jin stared wide-eyed, with incredible expressions on their faces.Ye Li yelled as if wanting to shift the focus: "Ah Jin, it's just that I, a modern person, don't know, but you, a living Qing Dynasty person, don't even know!"
Jin stroked his thick hair, and said with a sneer, "Bi, rather than studying history books, our family prefers the "Four Wonderful Books", which are full of literary talents, both beautiful and delicate and magnificent#..."
"It's a mess. Don't study the good ones, just read those books that are not nutritious." Ye Li scolded vigorously, unaware of the difference between being addicted to Warcraft and Jin.
The old ghost can't wait to move forward. The next mural depicts the personal conquest of a man in a yellow robe. Judging from the age and clothing, this should describe Kangxi's three conquests of Galdan.After the war murals are over, there are deeds such as Kangxi building a summer resort in Rehe and going out to Beijing for inspections.
As the boat advances, the deeds of the kings of the Qing Dynasty are all in front of them, presented one by one in chronological order.Of course, the murals omitted the embarrassment of the late Qing Dynasty, which was weak and weak, and the great powers were watching, and exaggerated the various cultural and martial arts of the monarchs of the past dynasties.
Yu Chengjun was puzzled.He has only seen two kinds of murals; one is to promote religion, such as the Buddhist murals in the Dunhuang Grottoes or the Catholic murals in St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican; Exaggerate and exaggerate the things of his own life and paint them on the wall.
And this kind of mural that painted all the deeds of the emperors of the past dynasties really made him clueless.
He asked a question, and the old ghost immediately lamented: "Why are you so stupid? Think about it, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were buried in the Eastern and Western Tombs of the Qing Dynasty, so this cannot be an ancient tomb, and the paintings on the walls are all The paintings of the emperors conquering all over the world and striving to govern—although they do not conform to historical facts, but they can do whatever they want in their homes—this proves that the treasures they have hoarded from the world must be placed here. We are in the Qing Dynasty Among the dragon veins of Changbai Mountain!"
Although Yu Chengjun thought it was the ghost old man who was only thinking about treasures, even if the paintings on the wall were of cavemen or Martians, he would have a way to draw Man Qing's dragon veins, but he couldn't think of a better reason to refute.
Ye Li, on the other hand, looked suspicious: "It's like writing 'the safe is here' on the wall at home, right? Who would be so idiot as to let someone steal it?"
"Then what about the tombs we robbed?" The ghost old man said with a smile: "Knowing that they will be stolen, they put all the valuables in them... In short, the owner of the tomb just wants others to see how magnificent their tomb is."
"I don't think they thought they would be stolen..."
When Jin saw the mural of Emperor Guangxu, he showed no secret of his deep attachment, but he still couldn't help laughing, "This painting is not bad, but the painting of Dad is too mighty, even if Dad sees it, he will laugh out loud. "Huh? What's that?"
Gold's finger pointed to the shore a little further away.When Yu Chengjun squinted his eyes to see clearly, he was also startled in his heart.He rowed the boat quickly, and before he got close, Ye Li screamed, with a look of horror on his face: "Then, that's a corpse?!"
In a relatively wide place on the bank, the surrounding murals were devastated, and several corpses were lying in front of the Emperor Guangxu on the murals, which looked extremely shocking.Yu Chengjun asked the others to stay on the boat, and went ashore to have a look carefully.
After counting, there were eight corpses lying on the ground, five of them were wearing familiar black clothes.
Judging from the lying posture of the corpse and the weapon it held, it should have been an earth-shattering gun battle here.
The rest of the people also noticed several black-clothed corpses from a distance.Jin covered his face with his hands, and said with a nauseous look: "This, this can't be Professor Luo..."
"No, it seems that these people have been here for a while." Yu Chengjun covered his mouth and nose and said, "The soft tissues have been liquefied and only the bones remain. Judging from the temperature and humidity here, it is estimated that it has been at least several months. "
The ghost old man climbed out of the boat, went to the corpse and picked up a pistol, then threw it aside and said helplessly, "It's all rusted."
Yu Chengjun thought to himself, it seems that the old ghost is right, there should be something in front of him, maybe it is a great benefit, which makes people fight with their lives.I don't know who the other party is, but after meeting Professor Luo, the fire tie ended in a lose-lose situation for both sides.
He couldn't help looking back at Jin. If it wasn't for Jin, he and Ye Li would probably have died in the tomb too.
Ye Li looked in other directions, pretending not to see the bones that were still wet and sticky, "If you can see the corpses from a few months ago, it means that Professor Luo has already stolen here...why come again?"
"Who knows?" The ghost old man shrugged his shoulders. Thinking that several groups of people might have come to the dragon vein treasure, he gave up any hope.He gave up on himself and said, "Either the underground palace is too big, or there are too many valuable things to move."
Yu Chengjun frowned looking at the tragic situation.It would definitely not be a good thing to meet Professor Luo in the underground. They are weak and have insufficient firepower, so they can only proceed with caution. It is better not to confront Professor Luo head-on.The old ghost also knew this very well, so he searched around the corpse, but he couldn't find anything useful after all.
Although the old ghost may have forgotten the original purpose, Yu Chengjun still remembers it.They have to find out why Professor Luo brought Jin here, and also ask him about his attempt to kidnap Jin, and take revenge by the way... It would not be a bad thing if they could get some benefits on the way of revenge, but it seems that it is impossible at present God, I'm afraid they will be targeted before they get close to Professor Luo.
The rubber boat continued to advance, but the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed as before. After speculating that there might be a large number of treasures hidden here, the mood became more tense, because it seemed that they were far from the only ones who wanted to share a share.
Except for Jin, his heart was clear at this moment.
Jin also understood everyone's concerns, thinking that if he encountered enemies, he must stand in front of them, even if he lost his life.Even though Yu Chengjun's recent indifference to Jin puzzled him and made him feel depressed for a while, Jin saw everything in his eyes when he took the water the night before.
When he secretly opened his eyes and saw Yu Chengjun's serious expression on catching the water, the uneasiness hidden in Jin's heart stopped clamoring and all settled down.
Jin and Yu Chengjun have very different personalities, as well as their attitudes towards relationships.Jin does not hide his enthusiasm, and hopes that the other party can prove it with practical actions, so he pesters Yu Chengjun all day long; Yu Chengjun is used to being sullen, and never tells his true thoughts.
But after last night's experience, Jin understands that Yu Chengjun still cares about him, although he still doesn't know why Yu Chengjun usually behaves so coldly, maybe he has his own considerations... Jin doesn't expect Yu Chengjun to respond His feelings, as long as he can stay by Cheng Jun's side and become a part of his life, Jin is quite satisfied with that alone.
Jin didn't want Yu Chengjun to change because of him, and he didn't want his waywardness to become his trouble.
He wants to protect everything that Yu Chengjun cherishes.
Jin is also not sure whether he understands love. He is 120 years old and actually only has 20 years of experience. These short 20 years are not enough for him to experience all kinds of ups and downs in life.
But it doesn't matter.For Jin, the experience of being able to meet an important person and protect him is already invaluable.
He is no longer confused, nor hesitant.If you only do what you are sure of, how can you know where your limit is?This is a commercial line that Jin saw, although it is a bit cheeky to explain his situation... But Jin has never been a person who knows how to be reserved.
After stopping his self-pity, Jin Hujue figured everything out as if he had been enlightened.Wouldn't it be too shameful to add troubles to this body that doesn't know when it will return to dust again?
Jin recovered from his thoughts, and before he had time to ponder whether this was too "Brother Pig", his body had involuntarily approached Cheng Jun.
He pretended to be like a weak willow Fufeng, frowned and said: "Jun, I don't feel very well."
Sure enough, Yu Chengjun immediately put down his oars and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is your wound still hurting?"
Jin held his heart in his hands, and said with a painful expression, "A little... maybe a little seasick..."
Yu Chengjun frantically patted Jin on the back, and took out acupoint stickers for motion sickness to stick behind Jin's ears.
The old ghost watched with great interest whether the acupoint stickers were effective for zombies, while Ye Li looked at the two with eyes full of pity, thinking: Yu Chengjun is probably the only person who would believe such a nonsense lie .
Jin secretly rejoiced that in this contest between the two of them, as long as they mastered Yu Chengjun's abusive personality, he would be able to seize the opportunity, and Yu Chengjun, who was dull, would never expect that he was actually fighting in his heart. Such a crazy idea...
The murals on the wall were suddenly interrupted, but anyone could tell that it was not because of the fall of the Qing Dynasty.
On the back wall, there are almost no murals about the last emperor. Instead, the Manchus retreated to the mountains and gave up the mountains and rivers to the Han people. However, although they retreated, the surroundings were surrounded by clouds and mists, as if gods and Buddhas ascended to heaven. pomp.
The old ghost’s explanation is that the person who painted this mural was out of face, so he revealed on the mural that the return of political power to the Han people was changed from “rule of God” to “rule of man.”
However, there was actually a piece of mural after that, but the whole piece was knocked off, and the small broken stones were scattered all over the place, leaving only the pitted wall.
Yu Chengjun forgot to move his hands, and didn't notice Jin's mournful eyes.The missing frescoes are apparently the key to solving the mystery of this place, which was previously a known part.I don't know who the person who destroyed the mural was, and what was his purpose...
The rubber boat jolted suddenly, causing the three people on the boat to lose their center of gravity. They hurriedly supported the side of the boat to stabilize their bodies... Jin Zheng lay on Yu Chengjun's body majestically, and took advantage of the chaos to embrace him.
The originally relatively gentle underground river suddenly had a height difference of at least [-] to [-] centimeters, and the water became turbulent, roaring and carrying the rubber boat forward.Yu Chengjun and the old ghost took the oars to stabilize the hull, trying to keep the bow of the boat forward, while Ye Li and Jin were responsible for protecting the equipment on the boat.
"How could there be such a section of river!" Ye Li yelled, curled up, hugging his backpack.
Jin's complexion was blue, and he looked like he was suffering from severe seasickness, but he still didn't forget to put an afterthought: "I expected it a long time ago. In a movie with a boating scene, there will always be a place like this at the end of the row, a bunch of people. Rocks and whirlpools, if you are lucky not to overturn here, there will be a waterfall at the end of the river..."
"Shut up, Ah Jin!" Ye Li scolded angrily. "Stop crowing!"
The rubber boat was bumped up and down by the white waves, and everyone was drenched, but they couldn't touch the shore or retreat, so they could only grit their teeth and move on.The small boat is so light that it is almost impossible to control the direction with only the strength of two people.
Yu Chengjun and the old man Gui tried their best, but the rubber boat continued to spin with the rolling of the river.
Suddenly, the rubber boat slammed into a protruding rock at the bottom of the river, and there was a frightening tearing sound from the bottom of the boat.
Ye Li's face changed drastically, and he tremblingly said, "The rubber boat was torn!"
Jin covered his mouth and said with difficulty: "I'm about to vomit... vomit..."
Yu Chengjun paddled his oars and said pantingly, "This rubber boat has independent airbags, it's only broken in one place, it's fine..."
Sooner or later, the side of the boat hit a dark rock again, and the sharp stone pulled a long hole in the deck.
Yu Chengjun was checking the extent of the damage to the hull when the old ghost suddenly threw the oar aside, as if giving up.
"Master!" Yu Chengjun said angrily, "That oar is very expensive, I plan to keep using it!"
The old ghost didn't look at him, grabbed the rope on the rubber boat, bowed his body and said: "If we can go back alive, I will buy ten new sets to compensate you. This time, the little zombie really hit the mark..."
Following the old man's gaze, the rest of the people noticed an ominous-looking river fault just a few tens of meters ahead...
"Waterfall!" Ye Li screamed.
Holding the oar, Yu Chengjun looked left and right, trying to find a place where he could go ashore, but the current was too fast, and there was no place to stay around the river...
"What are you waiting for!" The ghost old man shouted, "Hurry up and get down on the ground!"
Hearing this, they came back to their senses and prepared for the coming impact with all their hands and feet.
Even though the distance was only tens of meters, this short few seconds was an incomparable torment for the four people on board.
Jin looked at the nervous and worried look on Yu Chengjun's face opposite him, and couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, and shouted: "Jun, don't worry, I will protect everyone."
"Who asked you to protect it!" Ye Li said angrily.
"Jun..." Jin shouted as if he was going all out, "Although you already know, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to say... I love you in the future!"
Hearing Jin's untimely confession, only the old ghost was shocked.He raised his head abruptly, and said in amazement: "Little zombie, it turns out that you are the one with broken sleeves... Wow!"
Before the old ghost could finish his sentence, the rubber boat had already reached the fault and went straight down.
"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...It was only then that they realized the astonishing height of the waterfall, but the realization didn't help.
The fall due to the acceleration of gravity made it impossible for the four people to hold on to the rubber boat, and the equipment and people fell into the deep pool under the waterfall.
The buoyancy of the life jacket and the current caused by the water rushing down prevented them from being sucked into the whirlpool. After struggling to float up, Yu Chengjun coughed and swam to the side vigorously, looking for other people.Soon he found that the three people wearing eye-catching orange life jackets had floated and continued to move forward along the fierce current.
Ye Li and old man Gui closed their eyes tightly without any movement.Yu Chengjun groaned. They must have hit a rock at the bottom of the river when they rushed down, and thus lost consciousness.
"Yiqing!" Yu Chengjun called loudly to Jin who still didn't understand the situation, "Hurry up and save them!"
While speaking, Yu Chengjun also swam forward, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in the joints of his left arm.Yu Chengjun gritted his teeth. He was very familiar with this pain. It should be his old problem - habitual dislocation.
It must have been a lot more difficult to swim with only one hand left, but Yu Chengjun still grabbed the ghost old man who was closer to him with his dislocated left hand, and lifted him ashore, and Jin Zai had already caught up with Ye Li at the same time. Swimming awkwardly toward shore.
After the old ghost came ashore, Yu Chengjun swam forward to help Jin, but the river flow was too fast, and he bumped into the protruding rocks on the bank without paying attention.
Before losing consciousness, what Yu Chengjun saw was the panicked expression of Jin holding Ye Li...
Yu Chengjun was awakened by the sound of running water.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Jin who was crying with snot and tears.
Seeing that he regained consciousness, Jin shouted in a choked voice: "Everyone is awake!"
Yu Chengjun lay beside the crackling fire, not feeling the slightest chill.He looked at his left hand and lifted it slightly without feeling pain, the dislocated part has been connected.
The old man Gui and Ye Li who were on the other side of the fire ran over to check, with gratified expressions on their faces.
"Are you... are you all right?" Yu Chengjun asked hoarsely.
"It's okay." The ghost old man sat down, "You fell asleep for a while, it shouldn't be a problem. Will you have a headache and want to vomit?"
Yu Chengjun shook his head, struggling to get up, Ye Li quickly helped him to sit up.
There was a sudden stabbing pain near the hairline on the left forehead, and Yu Chengjun reached out to touch it, and there was something stuck there.
"You got a cut on your forehead, which was bandaged just now. It's just a flesh wound." The old ghost explained.
Yu Chengjun nodded, then looked around.They were not far from the waterfall. Only after looking closely did they realize that the waterfall is so magnificent, with a height difference of about [-] meters.Water mist surrounds the waterfall, and the torrent continuously washes down from above.
The cave to accommodate the big waterfall is also quite vast, and there are wide grounds on both sides of the underground river.
The ground is fairly flat, and there are no stalagmites or stone pillars anymore, but the roof of the cave is still covered with huge stalactites. Although it is some distance from the ground, it still makes people hold their breath in this situation, fearing that it will be a little bigger. The slightest movement breaks apart those shaky-looking calcium carbonate deposits.
"We're lucky. All we lost were the rubber boat and a backpack." The ghost old man said while warming himself by the fire, "The little zombie just picked up everything."
As soon as Jin was mentioned, Ye Li immediately turned to stare at him.Jin flinched, with an aggrieved expression on his face.
"You idiot!" Ye Li scolded, "Why didn't you save Master first? Could it be that what you just said was just for fun?"
Yu Chengjun knew that Ye Li was referring to the "I love you" that Jin said before he fell, and suddenly felt embarrassed, and quickly stopped: "Stop talking, I asked him to do it."
Kim blinked, her wet lashes fluttering up and down, looking innocent enough.
At this moment, the old ghost suddenly remembered, and asked with a malicious face: "Little zombie, so you like this? But why did you fall in love with this stupid apprentice of mine?"
Jin lowered his head and bit his pink lips as if he didn't hear, hesitated for a while before whispering: "Jun, I'm sorry for hurting you, but... I don't regret it."
These words made everyone else quiet.
Ye Li spoke first, and said in a bad tone, "What do you mean?"
Jin raised his head, his eyes determined: "I don't regret not saving Jun first at that critical moment, because I know that's what he wanted. If we were to change places, Jun would do the same, I just... want to Protect those you value."
"Your idea is too strange!" Ye Li shook his head as if he couldn't accept it at all, "What if something happens to Master? Are you going to die together?"
"No, I will not."
Jin's answer made Ye Li's mouth open.
"What's the point of two people dying together? I'll find Jun's body and bury him in a mortuary to turn him into a zombie too."
There was an eerie silence among the four of them.
Jin looked at the flames calmly, but he didn't know that his shocking speech had successfully deterred everyone.
Everyone thought: Is this a century of ideological differences?
Yu Chengjun looked at Jin.Even at a distance, he can deeply feel how unforgettable the sincerity contained in these words is.
"Pfft ha ha ha! You really have a way, little zombie!" The ghost old man clapped his hands and laughed, leaning forward and backward. "Aren't you ashamed to say that? Do you really want to be a zombie couple?"
Being teased by the ghost old man like this, Jin felt his cheeks burning hot at this moment, and seeing Yu Chengjun's flushed face, not knowing how to deal with himself, he realized that he had acted recklessly to make Yu Chengjun uncomfortable up.
Jin quickly pretended to be casual, and said coquettishly as if he wanted to respond to what the old man said, "That's right...Master, have you ever felt the deep affection of my family?"
Although Ye Li knew that Jin was not joking, and felt a little pimple in his heart, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and scolded, "Ah Jin, you are so disgusting!"
Yu Chengjun coughed twice, looked at the stretch of the river, and said amid everyone's laughter: "Now there is no rubber boat, we can only move forward on foot."
The old ghost laughed so hard that he was out of breath, finally stopped, and took a breath: "I only worry about one thing now. If I can't find the exit of this river, I can't climb back from the waterfall. Food can't last that long."
"How much food do we have?" Ye Li asked.
"There is one day left in the can..." Yu Chengjun rummaged through his backpack and said, "The rest is the dry food I made earlier. This dry food has high calories and should last for a week."
Ye Li took out a vacuum bag from his backpack, pointed to several ping-pong ball-sized yellow objects inside and asked, "Is this dry food? Is it delicious?" Without waiting for Yu Chengjun to answer, he took it by himself One came out and took a bite.
"It's so unpalatable! There's no taste at all!" Ye Li complained.
Yu Chengjun said with a blank expression: "It is a dry food that abandons seasoning and only wants to be easy to carry and preserve and sustain life. It is steamed with soybean flour, glutinous rice flour and sorghum flour and then dried. How can it be good? eat?"
The old ghost also twisted a ball in disgust and said, "I just hope that I can find an exit before this thing is eaten."
Yu Chengjun got up and scooped up some river water to extinguish the campfire, and stamped out the embers with his feet. "Let's go as soon as possible."
Although the river bank has gradually leveled off, it is still quite slippery and difficult to walk on. Facing the deep underground cave with no end in sight, everyone seems to be getting more and more depressed.
Yu Chengjun did the math. If his sense of direction was correct, they should be in the Linjiang or Jiangyuan area in Jilin Province, about [-] meters deep into the Changbai Mountains.
There are also several karst caves in Jilin Province, and it would be great if we could reach those places.But based on observations along the way, this underground river should be an independent system.If the direction of the river has not changed, the exit may be in North Korea... This is the worst situation he would like to see.
He thought angrily, if only he was more careful.Although the waterfall looks extremely dangerous, but with proper rock climbing tools, it is still possible to take the risk. I can only blame myself for being too careless...
"Don't worry, Jun." At some point, Jin walked side by side with him, looking at him seriously. "I guess you must be thinking wildly in your mind now, and you are the most worry-free."
Yu Chengjun didn't want to admit it, but Jin did mean it.He turned his head slightly and said, "This is looking ahead and planning ahead. Since there is no way out, of course we have to start thinking about the unknown possibilities ahead."
"I can smell it." Jin Ching said confidently, "The smell of the air is gradually becoming different, it's not as suffocating as the road before... There must be an exit ahead, and it's almost here."
"Isn't it the smell of gunpowder smoke?" Yu Chengjun sniffed the air and asked suspiciously.In his imagination, the exit might be surrounded by North Korean troops with guns and live ammunition...
"I do smell sulfur." Ye Li, who was walking some distance ahead, turned his head, wrinkled his nose and said, "It stinks, after all, this is a volcano, so there will inevitably be a strange smell."
The ghost old man at the front laughed loudly: "Sulphur?! That's my fart smell!"
Ye Li quickly covered his nose and cursed: "Smelly old man, don't fart!"
"Isn't that what I said? Besides, who told you to walk slower than me, an old man with a bad stomach?"
Ye Li, who was originally dragging his feet, ran away in a rage, and chased after the old man in no time. "I swear I'll never come out with you old man again!"
"Hahahaha, just don't make noise and come along..." The ghost old man paused, narrowing his eyes: "What's that in front?"
When other people looked in the direction he said, they could only see the depths of the cave vaguely, but it was pitch black due to the lack of light from the miner's lamp.Although the old ghost is old, the sharpness of his eyes is unambiguous.He suddenly widened his eyes, and without waiting for anyone to ask, he ran straight forward.
"Master!" Yu Chengjun was worried that the old man would fall into the trap by himself, so he hurriedly followed.
The miner's lamp in his hand gradually illuminated the front.When something looming above the underground river loomed ahead, Yu Chengjun finally understood why the ghost old man reacted so violently.
The underground river flows slowly, hidden under the white stone steps.There are three rows of upward stairs, about [-] meters long, with finely carved stone pillars between the steps. The central step is five or six meters wide, and is divided into left and right passages by large white stone reliefs.The surrounding caves were dug flat, paved with blue bricks, and a layer of apricot-yellow gold-covered soil was painted.
The underground river, which was originally quite wide, looked inconspicuous like a small ditch in contrast to the buildings.
No one was interested in exploring where the underground river leads to, and they couldn't continue to pursue it, because looking along the stairs, a huge building spanned above the river, occupying all the space in the cave.
The white stone steps extend to the side, enclosing the magnificent gate even in the misty water vapor.
They turned on the lights in their hands and looked up. The nine large vermilion pillars on the front supported the building. The top was covered with double-layered eaves covered with golden glazed tiles, and the base connected with the steps below was made of Made of white marble,
It is at least twenty meters high from the ground to the roof.Liang Fang and other components are covered with colorful paintings, which look extraordinary.
The stalactites on the top of the cave are inlaid with large and small beads, at least hundreds of them, shining brightly under the illumination of the miner's lamp.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they were all shocked by the world deep in the ground.
Surrounded by mist, the ghost old man sighed: "Under the Changbai Mountains, where birds do not lay eggs, there is such a magnificent underground palace hidden... Could it be that we are hallucinating?"
Yu Chengjun stepped forward.Standing under the stairs, you can feel the grandeur of this building even more.He touched the white railing, and tried to step on a step...it felt thick.
The old ghost was overjoyed, and said in a trembling voice, "Old man, I've been scouring sand all my life, and this is the first time I've encountered such a magnificent thing. There must be a treasure full of people hidden behind this door!"
At this time, it was not the ghost old man who was concerned about wealth, but Jin who took the lead in acting.Before Yu Chengjun stopped him, he walked up quickly, staring at the city gate deep in the ground as if obsessed.
Lord Taishan is right, there is indeed something hidden behind this door... Jin suddenly felt an urgent longing, he knew that there was a secret existence that was closely related to him behind that door, which made the hairs on his whole body stand on end.
He can be sure that this is what Professor Luo wants to show him!
"Little zombie, don't go so fast, those treasures won't run away with long legs." The ghost old head rushed forward as if he was afraid that Jin would get there first.
Jin took two steps in three steps, and came to the closed door in a short while.However, he was still somewhat rational, and did not open the door hastily, but waited for everyone else to come up.
In such a place with heavy humidity, the originally colorful carved railings and paintings faded quite badly.There are five bronze tripods in front of the door, and there are two big bronze lions on both sides, but they are placed in a mess, and one bronze lion is still lying on the ground, which looks extremely desolate.
Ah, this really is... Jin sighed in his heart, and couldn't help reaching out to touch the head of the copper lion. He remembered that when he first saw it when he was a child, the copper lion was taller than him. Looking at it now, he still feels that this lion is majestic. Rin Lin, although he knew it was a different thing, still suddenly reminded him of it.
Yu Chengjun was much more cautious.He walked up to observe the almost unrecognizable traces, thinking that it would be the best if he could find clues to prove that someone had been there, otherwise it would not be a good thing to have a door standing in such a place.
Yu Chengjun had a lot of worries. He didn't know if there was any trap hidden behind this door, but they had to pass through here, and who knew where the end would be if they dived below?If the oxygen runs out and they can't find an exit, they will be in danger...
After weighing it over and over again, he decided to ask the old man Gui for his opinion: "Master, we also have scuba, why don't we dive in from below?"
The ghost old man was studying the bronze tripod, and waved his hand impatiently: "Who wants to dive when there is a big road to go? You might as well think about how to push the door open, just now the little zombie couldn't push it."
"It's impossible to sneak in from below." Ye Li, who hadn't come up for a long time, shouted from below, "The river is completely blocked by iron fences!"
Yu Chengjun spat secretly.The bottom is not good, there may be danger in the middle, so the top... He stepped back a few steps and looked up. The city gate just fit into the space of the cave, and there was no gap at all.
Jin Wu tried his best to push the door, but the heavy door did not budge.His wound hadn't healed yet, so he didn't exert much effort.
Yu Chengjun walked towards Vermilion's door, feeling something was wrong when he touched it.He took out a knife and scraped off a layer of paint on the door, and suddenly found that the door was actually made of stone.He bent his fingers and tapped his ears to listen, the slate should be several inches thick.
"Yiqing, stop pushing." Yu Chengjun hurriedly stopped Jin, seeing his slightly pale face with pain in his heart. "You can't push this door, we have to find other ways to open it."
After watching for a minute, the old ghost gave up the bronze tripod and asked Yu Chengjun, "Did you bring gunpowder? Did you not get damp?"
Yu Chengjun untied his backpack, and took out a pack of detonators that were wrapped tightly one after another.
"The gunpowder is not damp..." Yu Chengjun took out a detonator to check. "But how about blasting the door here?"
The old ghost snatched the detonator, and inserted the guide channel neatly: "What are you worried about? Such a large construction project didn't let this place collapse, so you are afraid of this little explosive?"
Yu Chengjun looked at the entire city gate. The stone door panels and walls were too thick, and the roof looked like the weakest part of the entire gate structure. It should be possible to start from there... He took a rope and tied it to his body, and climbed steadily and quickly. up.
Yu Chengjun stepped on the glazed tiles of the roof and turned the tiles casually, and the tiles were laid extremely firmly.After a closer look, he found that the roof part and the cave were connected together, and iron was poured in the middle of the gap, so that the water was not leaked.He tried to tap on the joint, but he couldn't tell how thick it was, so he could only ask that the joint between the roof and the cave should not be too large.
Yu Chengjun cut a long strip of fuze and connected it to the detonator, took the tape and pasted it on the roof, and then climbed down, telling others to stay away and then press the switch.
"Bang!" The shock wave exploded all of a sudden, and then the sound of the explosion was heard, followed by smoke and dust and falling
But what surprised them was the large and large paintings on the wall.The left and right sides describe the same war, but the pictures are different, and the sky is faithfully presented right up to the top, making people feel like they are in it.The background of the mural is the magnificent and endless mountains, which should be Changbai Mountain according to the shape of the mountain.
As the boat continued to move forward, a figure appeared.
A man stands proudly on a horse, wearing a fur-trimmed mandarin jacket and a fur hat, with a rough and mighty face.Behind is still Changbai Mountain, and the ground on which the horse is stepping is the endless grassland.On the grassland a little further away were countless crowds, bowing down to the man on horseback.The costumes of the people were all kinds of styles, and it could be seen that they were a mixture of different races.
The next mural depicts the mighty army and horses about to break through the city gate.The soldiers defending the city fled, and their weapons and armor were scattered all over the place.The soldiers all wore dark round-breasted right lapel coats, knee-length red looped jackets exposed at the hem, and black soap towels were tied on top of their heads.
On the side that attacked the city, some wore leather armor and some wore iron armor. The man in the front was riding a horse vigorously.Most of the figures are not wearing iron armor, but long mandarin jackets with double-breasted buttons and slits on all sides, holding spears or bows and arrows in their hands.The most special thing is that their hair is all shaved, leaving only a small strand of long hair blowing in the wind.
Yu Chengjun took a closer look with a lamp.Although the murals have long faded due to age and moisture, the exquisite painters of that year can be vaguely seen.
"The first one should describe Nurhachi's unification of all tribes in the Northeast..." Yu Chengjun squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully. "This one depicts the mural of the Manchu Qing attacking the Ming Dynasty. The defenders are wearing typical Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers' costumes." , the other side is Manchu, the one in front should be Huang Taiji..."
"Manchurians?" Ye Li asked suspiciously, "Why would Manchurians have the hairstyle of the Huns in video games? Didn't they shave half of their heads and braid the back of their heads?"
The old ghost stared intently at the mural and said: "In the early days, the Manchus shaved a lot, and they could only keep hair the size of a copper coin, which was called "money rat tail". Later, the area was gradually increased, even in the time of Jiaqing Daoguang. It’s at most four or five copper coins. It’s not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that half-shaved ones appeared in TV dramas. For the sake of aesthetics, it’s impossible for the actors to leave money rat tails.”
Both Ye Li and Jin stared wide-eyed, with incredible expressions on their faces.Ye Li yelled as if wanting to shift the focus: "Ah Jin, it's just that I, a modern person, don't know, but you, a living Qing Dynasty person, don't even know!"
Jin stroked his thick hair, and said with a sneer, "Bi, rather than studying history books, our family prefers the "Four Wonderful Books", which are full of literary talents, both beautiful and delicate and magnificent#..."
"It's a mess. Don't study the good ones, just read those books that are not nutritious." Ye Li scolded vigorously, unaware of the difference between being addicted to Warcraft and Jin.
The old ghost can't wait to move forward. The next mural depicts the personal conquest of a man in a yellow robe. Judging from the age and clothing, this should describe Kangxi's three conquests of Galdan.After the war murals are over, there are deeds such as Kangxi building a summer resort in Rehe and going out to Beijing for inspections.
As the boat advances, the deeds of the kings of the Qing Dynasty are all in front of them, presented one by one in chronological order.Of course, the murals omitted the embarrassment of the late Qing Dynasty, which was weak and weak, and the great powers were watching, and exaggerated the various cultural and martial arts of the monarchs of the past dynasties.
Yu Chengjun was puzzled.He has only seen two kinds of murals; one is to promote religion, such as the Buddhist murals in the Dunhuang Grottoes or the Catholic murals in St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican; Exaggerate and exaggerate the things of his own life and paint them on the wall.
And this kind of mural that painted all the deeds of the emperors of the past dynasties really made him clueless.
He asked a question, and the old ghost immediately lamented: "Why are you so stupid? Think about it, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were buried in the Eastern and Western Tombs of the Qing Dynasty, so this cannot be an ancient tomb, and the paintings on the walls are all The paintings of the emperors conquering all over the world and striving to govern—although they do not conform to historical facts, but they can do whatever they want in their homes—this proves that the treasures they have hoarded from the world must be placed here. We are in the Qing Dynasty Among the dragon veins of Changbai Mountain!"
Although Yu Chengjun thought it was the ghost old man who was only thinking about treasures, even if the paintings on the wall were of cavemen or Martians, he would have a way to draw Man Qing's dragon veins, but he couldn't think of a better reason to refute.
Ye Li, on the other hand, looked suspicious: "It's like writing 'the safe is here' on the wall at home, right? Who would be so idiot as to let someone steal it?"
"Then what about the tombs we robbed?" The ghost old man said with a smile: "Knowing that they will be stolen, they put all the valuables in them... In short, the owner of the tomb just wants others to see how magnificent their tomb is."
"I don't think they thought they would be stolen..."
When Jin saw the mural of Emperor Guangxu, he showed no secret of his deep attachment, but he still couldn't help laughing, "This painting is not bad, but the painting of Dad is too mighty, even if Dad sees it, he will laugh out loud. "Huh? What's that?"
Gold's finger pointed to the shore a little further away.When Yu Chengjun squinted his eyes to see clearly, he was also startled in his heart.He rowed the boat quickly, and before he got close, Ye Li screamed, with a look of horror on his face: "Then, that's a corpse?!"
In a relatively wide place on the bank, the surrounding murals were devastated, and several corpses were lying in front of the Emperor Guangxu on the murals, which looked extremely shocking.Yu Chengjun asked the others to stay on the boat, and went ashore to have a look carefully.
After counting, there were eight corpses lying on the ground, five of them were wearing familiar black clothes.
Judging from the lying posture of the corpse and the weapon it held, it should have been an earth-shattering gun battle here.
The rest of the people also noticed several black-clothed corpses from a distance.Jin covered his face with his hands, and said with a nauseous look: "This, this can't be Professor Luo..."
"No, it seems that these people have been here for a while." Yu Chengjun covered his mouth and nose and said, "The soft tissues have been liquefied and only the bones remain. Judging from the temperature and humidity here, it is estimated that it has been at least several months. "
The ghost old man climbed out of the boat, went to the corpse and picked up a pistol, then threw it aside and said helplessly, "It's all rusted."
Yu Chengjun thought to himself, it seems that the old ghost is right, there should be something in front of him, maybe it is a great benefit, which makes people fight with their lives.I don't know who the other party is, but after meeting Professor Luo, the fire tie ended in a lose-lose situation for both sides.
He couldn't help looking back at Jin. If it wasn't for Jin, he and Ye Li would probably have died in the tomb too.
Ye Li looked in other directions, pretending not to see the bones that were still wet and sticky, "If you can see the corpses from a few months ago, it means that Professor Luo has already stolen here...why come again?"
"Who knows?" The ghost old man shrugged his shoulders. Thinking that several groups of people might have come to the dragon vein treasure, he gave up any hope.He gave up on himself and said, "Either the underground palace is too big, or there are too many valuable things to move."
Yu Chengjun frowned looking at the tragic situation.It would definitely not be a good thing to meet Professor Luo in the underground. They are weak and have insufficient firepower, so they can only proceed with caution. It is better not to confront Professor Luo head-on.The old ghost also knew this very well, so he searched around the corpse, but he couldn't find anything useful after all.
Although the old ghost may have forgotten the original purpose, Yu Chengjun still remembers it.They have to find out why Professor Luo brought Jin here, and also ask him about his attempt to kidnap Jin, and take revenge by the way... It would not be a bad thing if they could get some benefits on the way of revenge, but it seems that it is impossible at present God, I'm afraid they will be targeted before they get close to Professor Luo.
The rubber boat continued to advance, but the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed as before. After speculating that there might be a large number of treasures hidden here, the mood became more tense, because it seemed that they were far from the only ones who wanted to share a share.
Except for Jin, his heart was clear at this moment.
Jin also understood everyone's concerns, thinking that if he encountered enemies, he must stand in front of them, even if he lost his life.Even though Yu Chengjun's recent indifference to Jin puzzled him and made him feel depressed for a while, Jin saw everything in his eyes when he took the water the night before.
When he secretly opened his eyes and saw Yu Chengjun's serious expression on catching the water, the uneasiness hidden in Jin's heart stopped clamoring and all settled down.
Jin and Yu Chengjun have very different personalities, as well as their attitudes towards relationships.Jin does not hide his enthusiasm, and hopes that the other party can prove it with practical actions, so he pesters Yu Chengjun all day long; Yu Chengjun is used to being sullen, and never tells his true thoughts.
But after last night's experience, Jin understands that Yu Chengjun still cares about him, although he still doesn't know why Yu Chengjun usually behaves so coldly, maybe he has his own considerations... Jin doesn't expect Yu Chengjun to respond His feelings, as long as he can stay by Cheng Jun's side and become a part of his life, Jin is quite satisfied with that alone.
Jin didn't want Yu Chengjun to change because of him, and he didn't want his waywardness to become his trouble.
He wants to protect everything that Yu Chengjun cherishes.
Jin is also not sure whether he understands love. He is 120 years old and actually only has 20 years of experience. These short 20 years are not enough for him to experience all kinds of ups and downs in life.
But it doesn't matter.For Jin, the experience of being able to meet an important person and protect him is already invaluable.
He is no longer confused, nor hesitant.If you only do what you are sure of, how can you know where your limit is?This is a commercial line that Jin saw, although it is a bit cheeky to explain his situation... But Jin has never been a person who knows how to be reserved.
After stopping his self-pity, Jin Hujue figured everything out as if he had been enlightened.Wouldn't it be too shameful to add troubles to this body that doesn't know when it will return to dust again?
Jin recovered from his thoughts, and before he had time to ponder whether this was too "Brother Pig", his body had involuntarily approached Cheng Jun.
He pretended to be like a weak willow Fufeng, frowned and said: "Jun, I don't feel very well."
Sure enough, Yu Chengjun immediately put down his oars and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is your wound still hurting?"
Jin held his heart in his hands, and said with a painful expression, "A little... maybe a little seasick..."
Yu Chengjun frantically patted Jin on the back, and took out acupoint stickers for motion sickness to stick behind Jin's ears.
The old ghost watched with great interest whether the acupoint stickers were effective for zombies, while Ye Li looked at the two with eyes full of pity, thinking: Yu Chengjun is probably the only person who would believe such a nonsense lie .
Jin secretly rejoiced that in this contest between the two of them, as long as they mastered Yu Chengjun's abusive personality, he would be able to seize the opportunity, and Yu Chengjun, who was dull, would never expect that he was actually fighting in his heart. Such a crazy idea...
The murals on the wall were suddenly interrupted, but anyone could tell that it was not because of the fall of the Qing Dynasty.
On the back wall, there are almost no murals about the last emperor. Instead, the Manchus retreated to the mountains and gave up the mountains and rivers to the Han people. However, although they retreated, the surroundings were surrounded by clouds and mists, as if gods and Buddhas ascended to heaven. pomp.
The old ghost’s explanation is that the person who painted this mural was out of face, so he revealed on the mural that the return of political power to the Han people was changed from “rule of God” to “rule of man.”
However, there was actually a piece of mural after that, but the whole piece was knocked off, and the small broken stones were scattered all over the place, leaving only the pitted wall.
Yu Chengjun forgot to move his hands, and didn't notice Jin's mournful eyes.The missing frescoes are apparently the key to solving the mystery of this place, which was previously a known part.I don't know who the person who destroyed the mural was, and what was his purpose...
The rubber boat jolted suddenly, causing the three people on the boat to lose their center of gravity. They hurriedly supported the side of the boat to stabilize their bodies... Jin Zheng lay on Yu Chengjun's body majestically, and took advantage of the chaos to embrace him.
The originally relatively gentle underground river suddenly had a height difference of at least [-] to [-] centimeters, and the water became turbulent, roaring and carrying the rubber boat forward.Yu Chengjun and the old ghost took the oars to stabilize the hull, trying to keep the bow of the boat forward, while Ye Li and Jin were responsible for protecting the equipment on the boat.
"How could there be such a section of river!" Ye Li yelled, curled up, hugging his backpack.
Jin's complexion was blue, and he looked like he was suffering from severe seasickness, but he still didn't forget to put an afterthought: "I expected it a long time ago. In a movie with a boating scene, there will always be a place like this at the end of the row, a bunch of people. Rocks and whirlpools, if you are lucky not to overturn here, there will be a waterfall at the end of the river..."
"Shut up, Ah Jin!" Ye Li scolded angrily. "Stop crowing!"
The rubber boat was bumped up and down by the white waves, and everyone was drenched, but they couldn't touch the shore or retreat, so they could only grit their teeth and move on.The small boat is so light that it is almost impossible to control the direction with only the strength of two people.
Yu Chengjun and the old man Gui tried their best, but the rubber boat continued to spin with the rolling of the river.
Suddenly, the rubber boat slammed into a protruding rock at the bottom of the river, and there was a frightening tearing sound from the bottom of the boat.
Ye Li's face changed drastically, and he tremblingly said, "The rubber boat was torn!"
Jin covered his mouth and said with difficulty: "I'm about to vomit... vomit..."
Yu Chengjun paddled his oars and said pantingly, "This rubber boat has independent airbags, it's only broken in one place, it's fine..."
Sooner or later, the side of the boat hit a dark rock again, and the sharp stone pulled a long hole in the deck.
Yu Chengjun was checking the extent of the damage to the hull when the old ghost suddenly threw the oar aside, as if giving up.
"Master!" Yu Chengjun said angrily, "That oar is very expensive, I plan to keep using it!"
The old ghost didn't look at him, grabbed the rope on the rubber boat, bowed his body and said: "If we can go back alive, I will buy ten new sets to compensate you. This time, the little zombie really hit the mark..."
Following the old man's gaze, the rest of the people noticed an ominous-looking river fault just a few tens of meters ahead...
"Waterfall!" Ye Li screamed.
Holding the oar, Yu Chengjun looked left and right, trying to find a place where he could go ashore, but the current was too fast, and there was no place to stay around the river...
"What are you waiting for!" The ghost old man shouted, "Hurry up and get down on the ground!"
Hearing this, they came back to their senses and prepared for the coming impact with all their hands and feet.
Even though the distance was only tens of meters, this short few seconds was an incomparable torment for the four people on board.
Jin looked at the nervous and worried look on Yu Chengjun's face opposite him, and couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, and shouted: "Jun, don't worry, I will protect everyone."
"Who asked you to protect it!" Ye Li said angrily.
"Jun..." Jin shouted as if he was going all out, "Although you already know, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to say... I love you in the future!"
Hearing Jin's untimely confession, only the old ghost was shocked.He raised his head abruptly, and said in amazement: "Little zombie, it turns out that you are the one with broken sleeves... Wow!"
Before the old ghost could finish his sentence, the rubber boat had already reached the fault and went straight down.
"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...It was only then that they realized the astonishing height of the waterfall, but the realization didn't help.
The fall due to the acceleration of gravity made it impossible for the four people to hold on to the rubber boat, and the equipment and people fell into the deep pool under the waterfall.
The buoyancy of the life jacket and the current caused by the water rushing down prevented them from being sucked into the whirlpool. After struggling to float up, Yu Chengjun coughed and swam to the side vigorously, looking for other people.Soon he found that the three people wearing eye-catching orange life jackets had floated and continued to move forward along the fierce current.
Ye Li and old man Gui closed their eyes tightly without any movement.Yu Chengjun groaned. They must have hit a rock at the bottom of the river when they rushed down, and thus lost consciousness.
"Yiqing!" Yu Chengjun called loudly to Jin who still didn't understand the situation, "Hurry up and save them!"
While speaking, Yu Chengjun also swam forward, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in the joints of his left arm.Yu Chengjun gritted his teeth. He was very familiar with this pain. It should be his old problem - habitual dislocation.
It must have been a lot more difficult to swim with only one hand left, but Yu Chengjun still grabbed the ghost old man who was closer to him with his dislocated left hand, and lifted him ashore, and Jin Zai had already caught up with Ye Li at the same time. Swimming awkwardly toward shore.
After the old ghost came ashore, Yu Chengjun swam forward to help Jin, but the river flow was too fast, and he bumped into the protruding rocks on the bank without paying attention.
Before losing consciousness, what Yu Chengjun saw was the panicked expression of Jin holding Ye Li...
Yu Chengjun was awakened by the sound of running water.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Jin who was crying with snot and tears.
Seeing that he regained consciousness, Jin shouted in a choked voice: "Everyone is awake!"
Yu Chengjun lay beside the crackling fire, not feeling the slightest chill.He looked at his left hand and lifted it slightly without feeling pain, the dislocated part has been connected.
The old man Gui and Ye Li who were on the other side of the fire ran over to check, with gratified expressions on their faces.
"Are you... are you all right?" Yu Chengjun asked hoarsely.
"It's okay." The ghost old man sat down, "You fell asleep for a while, it shouldn't be a problem. Will you have a headache and want to vomit?"
Yu Chengjun shook his head, struggling to get up, Ye Li quickly helped him to sit up.
There was a sudden stabbing pain near the hairline on the left forehead, and Yu Chengjun reached out to touch it, and there was something stuck there.
"You got a cut on your forehead, which was bandaged just now. It's just a flesh wound." The old ghost explained.
Yu Chengjun nodded, then looked around.They were not far from the waterfall. Only after looking closely did they realize that the waterfall is so magnificent, with a height difference of about [-] meters.Water mist surrounds the waterfall, and the torrent continuously washes down from above.
The cave to accommodate the big waterfall is also quite vast, and there are wide grounds on both sides of the underground river.
The ground is fairly flat, and there are no stalagmites or stone pillars anymore, but the roof of the cave is still covered with huge stalactites. Although it is some distance from the ground, it still makes people hold their breath in this situation, fearing that it will be a little bigger. The slightest movement breaks apart those shaky-looking calcium carbonate deposits.
"We're lucky. All we lost were the rubber boat and a backpack." The ghost old man said while warming himself by the fire, "The little zombie just picked up everything."
As soon as Jin was mentioned, Ye Li immediately turned to stare at him.Jin flinched, with an aggrieved expression on his face.
"You idiot!" Ye Li scolded, "Why didn't you save Master first? Could it be that what you just said was just for fun?"
Yu Chengjun knew that Ye Li was referring to the "I love you" that Jin said before he fell, and suddenly felt embarrassed, and quickly stopped: "Stop talking, I asked him to do it."
Kim blinked, her wet lashes fluttering up and down, looking innocent enough.
At this moment, the old ghost suddenly remembered, and asked with a malicious face: "Little zombie, so you like this? But why did you fall in love with this stupid apprentice of mine?"
Jin lowered his head and bit his pink lips as if he didn't hear, hesitated for a while before whispering: "Jun, I'm sorry for hurting you, but... I don't regret it."
These words made everyone else quiet.
Ye Li spoke first, and said in a bad tone, "What do you mean?"
Jin raised his head, his eyes determined: "I don't regret not saving Jun first at that critical moment, because I know that's what he wanted. If we were to change places, Jun would do the same, I just... want to Protect those you value."
"Your idea is too strange!" Ye Li shook his head as if he couldn't accept it at all, "What if something happens to Master? Are you going to die together?"
"No, I will not."
Jin's answer made Ye Li's mouth open.
"What's the point of two people dying together? I'll find Jun's body and bury him in a mortuary to turn him into a zombie too."
There was an eerie silence among the four of them.
Jin looked at the flames calmly, but he didn't know that his shocking speech had successfully deterred everyone.
Everyone thought: Is this a century of ideological differences?
Yu Chengjun looked at Jin.Even at a distance, he can deeply feel how unforgettable the sincerity contained in these words is.
"Pfft ha ha ha! You really have a way, little zombie!" The ghost old man clapped his hands and laughed, leaning forward and backward. "Aren't you ashamed to say that? Do you really want to be a zombie couple?"
Being teased by the ghost old man like this, Jin felt his cheeks burning hot at this moment, and seeing Yu Chengjun's flushed face, not knowing how to deal with himself, he realized that he had acted recklessly to make Yu Chengjun uncomfortable up.
Jin quickly pretended to be casual, and said coquettishly as if he wanted to respond to what the old man said, "That's right...Master, have you ever felt the deep affection of my family?"
Although Ye Li knew that Jin was not joking, and felt a little pimple in his heart, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and scolded, "Ah Jin, you are so disgusting!"
Yu Chengjun coughed twice, looked at the stretch of the river, and said amid everyone's laughter: "Now there is no rubber boat, we can only move forward on foot."
The old ghost laughed so hard that he was out of breath, finally stopped, and took a breath: "I only worry about one thing now. If I can't find the exit of this river, I can't climb back from the waterfall. Food can't last that long."
"How much food do we have?" Ye Li asked.
"There is one day left in the can..." Yu Chengjun rummaged through his backpack and said, "The rest is the dry food I made earlier. This dry food has high calories and should last for a week."
Ye Li took out a vacuum bag from his backpack, pointed to several ping-pong ball-sized yellow objects inside and asked, "Is this dry food? Is it delicious?" Without waiting for Yu Chengjun to answer, he took it by himself One came out and took a bite.
"It's so unpalatable! There's no taste at all!" Ye Li complained.
Yu Chengjun said with a blank expression: "It is a dry food that abandons seasoning and only wants to be easy to carry and preserve and sustain life. It is steamed with soybean flour, glutinous rice flour and sorghum flour and then dried. How can it be good? eat?"
The old ghost also twisted a ball in disgust and said, "I just hope that I can find an exit before this thing is eaten."
Yu Chengjun got up and scooped up some river water to extinguish the campfire, and stamped out the embers with his feet. "Let's go as soon as possible."
Although the river bank has gradually leveled off, it is still quite slippery and difficult to walk on. Facing the deep underground cave with no end in sight, everyone seems to be getting more and more depressed.
Yu Chengjun did the math. If his sense of direction was correct, they should be in the Linjiang or Jiangyuan area in Jilin Province, about [-] meters deep into the Changbai Mountains.
There are also several karst caves in Jilin Province, and it would be great if we could reach those places.But based on observations along the way, this underground river should be an independent system.If the direction of the river has not changed, the exit may be in North Korea... This is the worst situation he would like to see.
He thought angrily, if only he was more careful.Although the waterfall looks extremely dangerous, but with proper rock climbing tools, it is still possible to take the risk. I can only blame myself for being too careless...
"Don't worry, Jun." At some point, Jin walked side by side with him, looking at him seriously. "I guess you must be thinking wildly in your mind now, and you are the most worry-free."
Yu Chengjun didn't want to admit it, but Jin did mean it.He turned his head slightly and said, "This is looking ahead and planning ahead. Since there is no way out, of course we have to start thinking about the unknown possibilities ahead."
"I can smell it." Jin Ching said confidently, "The smell of the air is gradually becoming different, it's not as suffocating as the road before... There must be an exit ahead, and it's almost here."
"Isn't it the smell of gunpowder smoke?" Yu Chengjun sniffed the air and asked suspiciously.In his imagination, the exit might be surrounded by North Korean troops with guns and live ammunition...
"I do smell sulfur." Ye Li, who was walking some distance ahead, turned his head, wrinkled his nose and said, "It stinks, after all, this is a volcano, so there will inevitably be a strange smell."
The ghost old man at the front laughed loudly: "Sulphur?! That's my fart smell!"
Ye Li quickly covered his nose and cursed: "Smelly old man, don't fart!"
"Isn't that what I said? Besides, who told you to walk slower than me, an old man with a bad stomach?"
Ye Li, who was originally dragging his feet, ran away in a rage, and chased after the old man in no time. "I swear I'll never come out with you old man again!"
"Hahahaha, just don't make noise and come along..." The ghost old man paused, narrowing his eyes: "What's that in front?"
When other people looked in the direction he said, they could only see the depths of the cave vaguely, but it was pitch black due to the lack of light from the miner's lamp.Although the old ghost is old, the sharpness of his eyes is unambiguous.He suddenly widened his eyes, and without waiting for anyone to ask, he ran straight forward.
"Master!" Yu Chengjun was worried that the old man would fall into the trap by himself, so he hurriedly followed.
The miner's lamp in his hand gradually illuminated the front.When something looming above the underground river loomed ahead, Yu Chengjun finally understood why the ghost old man reacted so violently.
The underground river flows slowly, hidden under the white stone steps.There are three rows of upward stairs, about [-] meters long, with finely carved stone pillars between the steps. The central step is five or six meters wide, and is divided into left and right passages by large white stone reliefs.The surrounding caves were dug flat, paved with blue bricks, and a layer of apricot-yellow gold-covered soil was painted.
The underground river, which was originally quite wide, looked inconspicuous like a small ditch in contrast to the buildings.
No one was interested in exploring where the underground river leads to, and they couldn't continue to pursue it, because looking along the stairs, a huge building spanned above the river, occupying all the space in the cave.
The white stone steps extend to the side, enclosing the magnificent gate even in the misty water vapor.
They turned on the lights in their hands and looked up. The nine large vermilion pillars on the front supported the building. The top was covered with double-layered eaves covered with golden glazed tiles, and the base connected with the steps below was made of Made of white marble,
It is at least twenty meters high from the ground to the roof.Liang Fang and other components are covered with colorful paintings, which look extraordinary.
The stalactites on the top of the cave are inlaid with large and small beads, at least hundreds of them, shining brightly under the illumination of the miner's lamp.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they were all shocked by the world deep in the ground.
Surrounded by mist, the ghost old man sighed: "Under the Changbai Mountains, where birds do not lay eggs, there is such a magnificent underground palace hidden... Could it be that we are hallucinating?"
Yu Chengjun stepped forward.Standing under the stairs, you can feel the grandeur of this building even more.He touched the white railing, and tried to step on a step...it felt thick.
The old ghost was overjoyed, and said in a trembling voice, "Old man, I've been scouring sand all my life, and this is the first time I've encountered such a magnificent thing. There must be a treasure full of people hidden behind this door!"
At this time, it was not the ghost old man who was concerned about wealth, but Jin who took the lead in acting.Before Yu Chengjun stopped him, he walked up quickly, staring at the city gate deep in the ground as if obsessed.
Lord Taishan is right, there is indeed something hidden behind this door... Jin suddenly felt an urgent longing, he knew that there was a secret existence that was closely related to him behind that door, which made the hairs on his whole body stand on end.
He can be sure that this is what Professor Luo wants to show him!
"Little zombie, don't go so fast, those treasures won't run away with long legs." The ghost old head rushed forward as if he was afraid that Jin would get there first.
Jin took two steps in three steps, and came to the closed door in a short while.However, he was still somewhat rational, and did not open the door hastily, but waited for everyone else to come up.
In such a place with heavy humidity, the originally colorful carved railings and paintings faded quite badly.There are five bronze tripods in front of the door, and there are two big bronze lions on both sides, but they are placed in a mess, and one bronze lion is still lying on the ground, which looks extremely desolate.
Ah, this really is... Jin sighed in his heart, and couldn't help reaching out to touch the head of the copper lion. He remembered that when he first saw it when he was a child, the copper lion was taller than him. Looking at it now, he still feels that this lion is majestic. Rin Lin, although he knew it was a different thing, still suddenly reminded him of it.
Yu Chengjun was much more cautious.He walked up to observe the almost unrecognizable traces, thinking that it would be the best if he could find clues to prove that someone had been there, otherwise it would not be a good thing to have a door standing in such a place.
Yu Chengjun had a lot of worries. He didn't know if there was any trap hidden behind this door, but they had to pass through here, and who knew where the end would be if they dived below?If the oxygen runs out and they can't find an exit, they will be in danger...
After weighing it over and over again, he decided to ask the old man Gui for his opinion: "Master, we also have scuba, why don't we dive in from below?"
The ghost old man was studying the bronze tripod, and waved his hand impatiently: "Who wants to dive when there is a big road to go? You might as well think about how to push the door open, just now the little zombie couldn't push it."
"It's impossible to sneak in from below." Ye Li, who hadn't come up for a long time, shouted from below, "The river is completely blocked by iron fences!"
Yu Chengjun spat secretly.The bottom is not good, there may be danger in the middle, so the top... He stepped back a few steps and looked up. The city gate just fit into the space of the cave, and there was no gap at all.
Jin Wu tried his best to push the door, but the heavy door did not budge.His wound hadn't healed yet, so he didn't exert much effort.
Yu Chengjun walked towards Vermilion's door, feeling something was wrong when he touched it.He took out a knife and scraped off a layer of paint on the door, and suddenly found that the door was actually made of stone.He bent his fingers and tapped his ears to listen, the slate should be several inches thick.
"Yiqing, stop pushing." Yu Chengjun hurriedly stopped Jin, seeing his slightly pale face with pain in his heart. "You can't push this door, we have to find other ways to open it."
After watching for a minute, the old ghost gave up the bronze tripod and asked Yu Chengjun, "Did you bring gunpowder? Did you not get damp?"
Yu Chengjun untied his backpack, and took out a pack of detonators that were wrapped tightly one after another.
"The gunpowder is not damp..." Yu Chengjun took out a detonator to check. "But how about blasting the door here?"
The old ghost snatched the detonator, and inserted the guide channel neatly: "What are you worried about? Such a large construction project didn't let this place collapse, so you are afraid of this little explosive?"
Yu Chengjun looked at the entire city gate. The stone door panels and walls were too thick, and the roof looked like the weakest part of the entire gate structure. It should be possible to start from there... He took a rope and tied it to his body, and climbed steadily and quickly. up.
Yu Chengjun stepped on the glazed tiles of the roof and turned the tiles casually, and the tiles were laid extremely firmly.After a closer look, he found that the roof part and the cave were connected together, and iron was poured in the middle of the gap, so that the water was not leaked.He tried to tap on the joint, but he couldn't tell how thick it was, so he could only ask that the joint between the roof and the cave should not be too large.
Yu Chengjun cut a long strip of fuze and connected it to the detonator, took the tape and pasted it on the roof, and then climbed down, telling others to stay away and then press the switch.
"Bang!" The shock wave exploded all of a sudden, and then the sound of the explosion was heard, followed by smoke and dust and falling
