Chapter 210: Crystal Coffin
Zi Yang used Liu Xiaoshuai and his team to make a simple stretcher. Xie Laoer, Hao Boss Da, and Liu Xiaoshuai took turns carrying Jin Guoqiang, and Mo Laosan carried the Dzi pearl stone to open the way in front. A Chong and Qingwen were in charge of the central army, Su Rui and Zi Yang's rear.
The group set off and marched towards the crystal coffin.
The purple-leaf gentian tree on the road was "avoided" by everyone, which opened his eyes to Liu Xiaoshuai, who suffered all their hardships. Su Rui and others' reputation in his mind also increased from respect to respect.
Zi Yang looked at the situation inside the cave while walking. He didn't feel how grand this underground cave was at the edge. The more he walked in the middle, the more he felt that the place was big and unusual.
Su Rui and Zi Yang walked side by side, and some parts of the body touched "inadvertently". Zi Yang took Su Rui's hand "naturally", "There is such a big hole under the Gang Rinpoche Peak, do you think it is possible? Have we entered some alien space?"
Su Rui looked up at the dome and said, "We should be underground 1,000 meters deep from the main peak. Geologically speaking, this is not impossible. Scientists have conducted earthquake experiments in Tibet. It is said that from the data obtained, there is a huge mysterious hole of 150,000 square kilometers under the Himalayas.
Some foreign scientific research institutions even have a theory that the entire earth is empty."
Su Rui had no intention of breaking away from his hands, and Zi Yang felt happy.
When he heard Su Rui say the hollow underground theory, he was also stunned. He originally asked casually to chat with him, but he didn't expect Su Rui to answer so seriously and said seriously: "Is this really a matter? I thought it was a science fiction novel nonsense! Why didn't this discovery be announced in the mainstream media?"
Su Rui sighed: "Because there is insufficient evidence, modern science is still relatively rigorous. It is necessary to overturn common sense that has been recognized by everyone for a long time. Without evidence to support it, it is difficult to be recognized by the academic community."
Zi Yang said: "Scientific means are so developed now, can't we verify it?"
Su Rui said: "It is far difficult for humans to explore under their feet than to explore above their heads. Although human scientific exploration has expanded to the field of space and walked out of the solar system, we actually know very little about the earth we live in.
So far, the largest drilling depth of human beings is only 12,262 meters, or twelve kilometers. It is just the surface of the earth."
Zi Yang sighed: "That's the point? Can't we drill down any further? With the strength of these superpowers in the world, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Su Rui shook his head: "Have you heard of Kora's ultra-deep drilling?"
Zi Yang nodded: "I have an impression, mentioned in the magazine. It is said that the former Soviet Union dug this well for the purpose of competition with the United States and scientific research. It was the strangest competition during the Cold War."
Su Rui said: "In the 1980s, Kola's ultra-deep drilling had reached 12,000 meters, and later, due to a special reason, it was decided to stop further drilling. According to a confidential document, after the official announcement of the suspension of drilling, they secretly drilled 262 meters - these more than 200 meters were used for them for ten years. Then they stopped drilling completely, but the research on Kola's ultra-deep drilling is still underway, but it is already in the stage of absolute confidentiality."
Zi Yang asked: "It is said that it was because of insufficient funds?"
Su Rui shook his head: "This is just an official statement. According to a leaked confidential document, the crawling was stopped because of the paranormal phenomenon - the last 262 meters were carried out to study the paranormal phenomenon."
Zi Yang wondered, "What supernatural phenomenon?"
Su Rui thought about it and said softly: "It is said that after drilling to 12,262 meters, many phenomena that are difficult to explain in science have occurred. First, the ultra-high temperature-resistant drill bit was instantly melted, and only the wire rope was pulled out. Later, some staff members said that howling and screaming often came from the drill holes.
Later, scientists used special high-temperature resistant materials to make sound sensors and collected audio information below. Anyone who has heard that audio said that the sound inside was like the call of a sinner in hell."
Zi Yang felt Su Rui's hand trembling slightly and asked softly: "Have you heard that audio?"
Su Rui nodded: "There is an audio copy sent by the former Soviet Academy of Sciences in my uncle's institution. I have heard a short passage, but it really doesn't look like the sound from the world."
Zi Yang held Su Rui's hand tightly, and the two walked silently for a while. Looking at the fluorescent light emitted on the ground, Su Rui suddenly said softly: "Don't you think this place is a bit similar to the underground abyss in the Lop Nur Desert?"
Zi Yang stopped and looked at her blankly: "You, have you discovered it too? I thought it was just my illusion. These vegetation has some similarities... but there is no purple-leaf gentian tree in the abyss."
Su Rui smiled: "Well, there is still a big difference between the two places... There is no small sun on the dome here, and there is no black hole in the center.
I just suddenly remembered that adventure, and it was like this time... Alas, I hope we can still get rid of danger this time."
When talking about that Lop Nur adventure, Zi Yang not only remembered the scene of her blind date with Su Rui in the ice cave, but also a little blush appeared on her face.
Because the temperature in the underground cavity was more than twenty degrees, everyone had taken off the down jacket. At this time, Su Rui tied the down jacket around her waist and wore only a tight jacket on her upper body, which set off her proud breasts and sexy waist. Her scattered hair was tied together and tied up casually, revealing her slender and white neck. Although there was mud and sweat on her face, she looked even more charming.
Zi Yang couldn't help but start to imagine again...
Su Rui suddenly turned around and looked at Zi Yang with a smile: "Are you observing me?"
Zi Yang blushed. When he was panicking, Mo Laosan in front suddenly stopped: "Hey, brothers, come and take a look!"
Zi Yang's embarrassment was immediately resolved. She let go of Su Rui's hand and walked to the front of the team with big strode: "What's the matter?"
Mo Laosan pointed in front of him, only a few dozen meters away from the platform. If you look closely, the knotted dragon roots will be even more spectacular and stunning.
These thick roots surround the platform, like a huge sculpture. Unlike the branches and leaves of other purple-leaf gentians on the rock wall, these dragon roots are dark and do not move, and they seem to have become rigid.
This strange landscape amazes everyone, and the three prisoners who have experienced all this personally were even more frightened. If it weren't for the purple-leaf gentian tree outside the Dzi stone magnetic field, they would have been so scared that they would have run wildly.
"Did you see any clues?" Mo Laosan glanced at everyone proudly. Zi Yang knew he was going to show off again.
"Senior, please give me some advice!" Su Rui cooperated with him.
It is rare to have such a good audience. The storyteller Mo Laosan suddenly came and shook his head and said, "According to the principle of the growth of all things, there is no light or sufficient water here. However, the ability of this purple-leaf gentian to grow so lushly means that the source of vitality provided to them must be amazing."
Zi Yang frowned and said, "Everyone can see this. Can you say something we don't know?"
Mo Laosan coughed: "Look, all its roots are concentrated under this high platform, and a mist is faintly revealed on the platform - if it is the crystal coffin mentioned by several brothers, then the secret of the purple-leaf gentian tree will be revealed."
Su Rui said: "What do you mean? This crystal coffin is the source of energy of the purple-leaf gentian tree?"
Mo Laosan pinched the orchid finger and twisted his beard, pretending to be profound and said: "No, no, no, the person who was stabbed to death by this purple-leaf gentian can be resurrected, and after resurrection, he is invulnerable and has great power, which shows that the ingredients in this venom have magical effects.
We can see that all the purple-leaf gentian branches and leaves in the entire cave are emitted from these main roots, constantly forking, growing, and extending, and even spreading to the bottom of the temple hundreds or thousands of meters away.
And all the nutrients of purple-leaf gentian come from the rhizomes below the high platform, what does it mean?”
The question raised by the storyteller Mo Laosan was no longer able to cooperate with him. Mo Laosan asked and answered: "It means that there is an immortal spring under this high platform!"
Zi Yang said with a serious expression: "I also have a theory. The crystal coffin is hidden in a ten thousand-year-old ancient corpse. These purple-leaf gentian trees walked down from the tomb of the Mongolian general and then took root and sprouted on the ancient corpse. Because the ancient corpse has powerful magic power, the purple-leaf gentian trees are released into this shape."
Zi Yang's words are completely unimaginable and fantastic and unreasonable.
When Mo Laosan still misses the Immortal Spring, Zi Yang was also amused and laughed. He said that these things were deliberately slandering him.
Mo Laosan was ridiculed by him, and his face was a little confused: "Hehe, little brother, it's boring to argue deliberately..."
Su Rui also slapped Zi Yang and said, "Senior is talking about things seriously, so don't be too serious."
Zi Yang opened his eyes and said, "I am also analyzing it seriously. Senior Mo has rich archaeological experience and I am also a college student armed with theoretical knowledge."
Su Rui smiled and turned around and ignored him. She knew that Zi Yang was so eccentric that she was prone to being serious and just ignored him. If you want to argue with him, he could really make a lot of big truths.
Mo Laosan held the Dzi pearl stone and continued to open the way, muttering: "It's boring to raise the argument, it's boring to raise the argument."
Liu Xiaoshuai came to Zi Yang with fear and said, "Brother, are you all saying true? Is there really a ten thousand-year-old corpse in the crystal coffin?"
Zi Yang originally planned to scare him, but he looked scared on his face, thin and weak, and didn't seem to be old. Suddenly, he thought of Xiao Hei, and felt a little reluctant, and comforted him, "It's okay, there are several powerful monster hunting mages here. Whether it is a thousand-year-old corpse or a ten thousand-year-old evil ghost, someone will be subdued - did you see that taciturn young lady?"
Liu Xiaoshuai nodded with his big eyes.
Zi Yang whispered: "Do you think her feet are not touching the ground when she walks lightly?"
Liu Xiaoshuai stared at her big eyes and nodded vigorously.
Zi Yang whispered: "She is extremely capable. She is a master with profound skills and specializes in soul collection! She is nicknamed Miejue Master!"
Qingwen turned his head and gave him a fierce look.
Liu Xiaoshuai looked like he suddenly realized: "No wonder, I knew you are not ordinary people. Brother, I will hang out with you in the future! You will protect me! I still have a sick mother at home, I don't want to die!"
When Zi Yang heard Liu Xiaoshuai screaming sincerely, he suddenly thought of his family and felt very distressed. Who doesn’t have any parents?
He moved forward more than ten meters, and the scene around the platform became clearer. Mo Laosan suddenly cried out inwardly: "Not good!"
Zi Yang said: "What's wrong?"
Mo Laosan pointed to the front: "The gentian is blocking the way, and there is no intention of avoiding it - they seem to be protecting the platform!"
Su Rui looked carefully and said, "No, they are not protecting the platform, they are attacking! There are people on the platform!"
Chapter completed!
