Chapter 229 Chapter 88 Scientific Instruments

Jia Zhuangyuan said again: "The light of the flashlight is a temptation for those worms, or it is a guide. Let's turn off the flashlight now and move forward in the dark. Although it will be slower and the road is not easy to walk, it is related to safety. It's nothing compared to that." Everyone agreed, so they all turned off their flashlights, and the whole space instantly became pitch black again.First Young Master Liu said in a low voice: "Debiao and I walked this way, and I can feel the general location of that place. Let me walk ahead." Jia Zhuangyuan said "En", so Young Master Liu groped his way to the front, and everyone followed one by one, walking forward slowly.

The pitch-black space gave everyone the best cover, and once white beetles appeared, because their internal organs were transparent and bright like flames, everyone could spot them at a distance for the first time. After everyone walked slowly along the bank of the dark river for about ten minutes, Young Master Liu felt a fresh cool wind coming from the left side of his body. I was about to say something when Jia Zhuangyuan said: " I felt as if there was an exit or passage on the left, and there was a gust of air coming." First Young Master Liu nodded and said, "I also feel it. This location should be the protruding part of the mountain wall, and it is also the place where we met the American doctor and the white beetle."

Jia Zhuangyuan said: "Okay, let's turn left from here." So everyone followed the airflow, did not turn on the lights, but continued to walk to the left in the dark. When everyone touched the protruding stone wall and walked forward slowly for about tens of meters, they suddenly felt that the ground was much smoother, and it was no longer full of rocks.Strangely, those white beetles did not appear again, and they seemed to have no idea where they flew in this endless underground space, which made everyone secretly glad in their hearts.And those Americans were probably frightened by the white cup worm, and they didn't know where they went at this time.

After they walked for a while in the dark, a ray of light appeared in front of them. It felt very far away. The light was a light spot the size of a grain of rice, but it emitted a very strange light, and it couldn't tell what color it was.At this time, everyone became very nervous. Jia Zhuangyuan signaled everyone to stop, and then said in a low voice, "I don't know what kind of light source the light in front is. It would be troublesome if it came from a cup worm. I'll go ahead and check it out first." , Everyone, be careful." After speaking, without waiting for any of us to react, we walked forward lightly.

When he walked away, Fan Debiao looked at his funny walking posture, and suddenly said: "Actually, Mr. Jia is very capable, and he is also very righteous. Every time he encounters unknown things, he always takes the lead." Be the first to scout for us all." Everyone looked at him in surprise, and he seemed a little embarrassed and said, "Don't look at me, I'm speaking from the heart." First Young Master Liu said at this time: "Jia Zhuangyuan is indeed a good person." He sighed. At this time, the cabbage caterpillar suddenly pointed in the direction of Jia Zhuangyuan who was probing ahead and said, "Look, everyone, Senior Jia seems to be sending a signal to us."

Everyone took a look and saw that Jia Zhuangyuan, who was already far away from everyone, was using a flashlight to give some hints to those who turned on and off here, and Young Master Liu said: "Everyone, go over, it should be that Senior Jia discovered something. " Everyone responded and immediately walked to where Jia Zhuangyuan was. When approaching Jia Zhuangyuan, the light in front became the size of a football as the distance got closer and closer. At this time, everyone saw that the light emitted by it was a strange purple, which was very dazzling. Everyone saw that Jia Zhuangyuan seemed to be squatting on the ground, holding something that looked like a backpack in his left hand, and a round object in his right hand, but they didn't know what it was.When everyone rushed to the front, Jia Zhuangyuan raised the backpack and the things in his hand with a dignified face, and said to everyone, "This should be the backpack left behind by the mercenaries in a hurry when they were chased by the white worm. I opened it and looked, except for some miscellaneous things inside, there was a strange thing that looked like some kind of instrument, I don’t know what it’s used for.”

Everyone gathered around. The instrument was round and looked like a box with a steel structure. To everyone's surprise, there was a small hole in the middle of the box, and there seemed to be a red light flashing inside it every few seconds. , there are two buttons, one white and one black, on both sides of the box. Cabbage caterpillar took the instrument from Jia Zhuangyuan, looked at it, and said: "This is an infrared detector, which is mainly used for mineral detection, or for the army to detect mines. It is the most advanced instrument of this kind in the world. Advanced, the United States just successfully developed it last year, this detector is lightweight and flexible, and contains the most sensitive invisible antenna."

"Detector? What do these Americans want to detect with this device?" Jia Zhuangyuan frowned. Young Master Liu snorted coldly and said: "What they are looking for is probably what we are looking for. I said why these mercenaries are always one step ahead of us. It turns out that they have the most advanced detection equipment in the world, but now It did us a great favor.” Jia Zhuangyuan nodded and said, "Yes, but the key is how to use this thing?" Cabbage caterpillar smiled and said: "This thing is not difficult to use, have we all seen the flashing red light in this small hole now? This means that the detection thing exists, and then the two white buttons represent Search, black represents positioning. During the search process, the more urgent the red light flashes, that is, the faster the flashing frequency, it means that we are closer to what we are looking for. During the flashing process of the red light, we need not Keep pressing the black button. When we reach within one meter of what we are looking for, the black button is pressed, and the red light will be on and stop flashing. At this time, we are looking for within this meter. You'll find what you're looking for."

At this time, everyone understood that as long as we searched with this detector, we would find what the above asked us to find. Cabbage caterpillar put the instrument into his backpack, and then said to everyone: "Although the instrument can detect its existence now, judging from the flickering frequency, it is still far away from the thing we are looking for. To keep going, the direction indicated by the instrument is directly in front of us." At this time, Jia Zhuangyuan nodded and said, "The bright light in front of us is not from the cup worm. This purple light should be from some kind of substance. From the map, it should be within the scope of Wuji Dao Zang. Everyone should be more vigilant." .”

So, everyone continued to move forward.The purple light was very dazzling, and the rest of the road was illuminated so brightly that there was no need to turn on everyone's flashlights. After walking forward for no more than five minutes, everyone finally saw clearly that there was a cave in front of them, and the purple light was shining in from the outside of the cave. It seemed that outside the cave was an extremely strange world of purple light.This made everyone very curious, but they were also a little apprehensive, not knowing what kind of unpredictable wonderland would appear outside the cave entrance.

When everyone really stood at the entrance of the cave, the group of people were all overwhelmed by the scene outside the cave, feeling as if they had entered an incredible dream or a strange world.A strange, unreal, and even weird feeling hit everyone's heart at the same time. Just like everyone just opened the seven-star chain button and walked through the underground grand canyon to see Fengdu Ghost City for the first time. Below the entrance of the cave where everyone is located is a concave basin. In the center of the basin stands an incredible strange city. The entire city It turned out to be all made of purple crystals. At this moment, this incredible city is emitting an incomparable purple brilliance, illuminating the entire underground space. What is even more unbelievable to everyone is that there is an even more bizarre underground world of animals and plants around the Wuji Daozang. Countless weird plants grow around and within the basin, and in the botanical garden, everyone also saw many flying insects that they had never seen before, and there seemed to be reptiles living in the gaps of the plants . It took a long time for everyone to wake up from the dreamlike trance. Fan Debiao looked at the fantastic scene under his feet with some obsession and dull eyes, and murmured: "Aren't we dreaming? Where is this? All these things are Is it real?" Everyone was silent, no one answered him, and indeed no one could answer him.At this moment, I believe everyone is doubting, seeing everything. Standing like this, watching, and after a few minutes, First Young Master Liu sighed and said, "It seems that this is Wuji Daozang, and it really lives up to this magical name. Don't be surprised anymore. The scene in front of us is real, not a fantasy, let's find a path and go down." Everyone mechanically nodded, and finally slowly recovered their sanity. It didn't take much time for everyone to find the way down. It was a path paved with colorful crystal stones that should have been artificially built, winding and leading directly to the Wuji Dao Zang below. Just as everyone was about to move forward, Jia Zhuangyuan suddenly said: "Wait a minute, I feel something is wrong, we need to figure out some things before going down." Everyone was stunned, and First Young Master Liu asked, "Senior, what do you think is wrong?" Jia Zhuangyuan's small eyes rolled for a while, as if he was thinking about how to narrate. After a while of silence, Jia Zhuangyuan finally said: "Seeing that we are about to approach the end of Wuji Daozang, this Wuji Daozang is the last barrier of the Ninety-Nine Heavens , What I feel wrong is that there is one obvious thing about these other cities and Wuji Dao, that is, there is a living biological environment in Wuji Dao, what does this mean? You have seen the creatures here, plants, animals, and insects Unheard and unseen, what does this mean? In short, I feel very bad, I don’t know how to describe it, it’s like..." Speaking of this, he scratched his head, and continued with great difficulty: "It seems that this place is not the human world, but an illusion or a different world." Young Master Liu also nodded at this time and said: "I agree with what Senior Jia said, and I also feel that there is a very indescribable strange feeling here, and I am indeed a little uneasy. Although it is not that kind of strong feeling of uneasiness, it is just An indescribable feeling." Along the way, First Young Master Liu always gave everyone the feeling that he had a strong foresight, so when he spoke, everyone's expressions became more dignified. At this time, First Young Master Liu suddenly shook his hands, and then said with an extremely strange expression on his face: "No! I tried to recover my skills at the bank of the dark river just now, and at that time I had already recovered 70% to 80% , but now... I just got lucky, and all my skills have been lost!" Everyone couldn't help but feel terrified, what's going on?At this moment, Young Master Liu hurriedly pulled out a dozen talismans on his chest and murmured: "My talisman has also lost its mana. This...what's going on?" Everyone turned their attention to the yellow talisman in Young Master Liu's hand. Sure enough, the strange Taoist symbols originally painted on it all faded away at this time, and they no longer had the original look. This series of mutations immediately plunged everyone into an inexplicable panic. Everyone looked at the strange and incredible underground world under their feet for a while, and they were all at a loss. Suddenly, Jia Zhuangyuan yelled loudly: "I know! I know! There must be some strange thing or force in this place that is curbing our abilities, it must be." Everyone looked at him in astonishment, and saw that after he shouted this sentence, he pulled his already messy hair with his hands, frowned and murmured to himself: "But, what can have such a thing? What kind of strange power?" "I think I understand." First Young Master Liu patted his head. Hearing his words, everyone withdrew their confused eyes, and then looked at him with a slightly surprised expression. Liu Dashao said slowly: "The key to the problem lies in the legendary Promise Buddha Treasure, the Promise Demon Treasure, We have been saying that these three places in Wuji Daozang are very incredible, and they don’t seem to be built by human beings; in fact, although we don’t want to believe that there are ruins or human beings in different worlds in this world, However, in fact, since the appearance of human beings and the appearance of records, these things that we have been unwilling to believe actually exist on our earth. This is undeniable. In my opinion, the ninety-nine heavens are different worlds The Ninety-Nine Heavens may be an ancient site of people from another world, or it may just be a place where a space-time passage to another world opens, which is what Taoism calls ascension. Everyone still remembers the ghost town of Fengdu Look at the incredible Wuji Dao Zang in front of you. Who is alive on this earth and which dynasty can build such an underground city? Which person or dynasty can collect so many organs and crystals? Such a huge Is it possible for a whole piece of crystal to be formed on this earth? The answer is absolutely impossible!" Liu Dashao said calmly, and he saw that all the people seemed to be listening calmly, believing that at this moment, in reality The facts that everyone has seen and experienced in everyone's eyes make everyone admit what they said in their hearts without exception, and also admit that there are indeed some unexplainable things on this earth. First Young Master Liu continued: "Except for Senior Jia and Cai Qingchong, the five of us present all experienced the last Golden Ancient City incident, where we entered a time-space wormhole and entered an illusion. That experience told me , In this world, there is indeed a fission of different time and space, and there are creatures and ruins of other worlds. I believe that the ninety-nine heavens we are in now are also some kind of relics of other worlds. Take these crystals I don’t think they are things on our earth. The light they emit tells me that these things are not the minerals we see and mine on the earth, but some kind of crystals from another world that are similar to the crystals on our earth. Of course, there is also the heavy water in the Yellow Spring. Now that we have lost some of our own abilities, I think there is an inevitable connection with the Wuji Dao Zang we see now, that is to say, the Wu Ji Dao Zang itself has the ability to restrain us. some substance or force." Seeing everyone's dull calm, First Young Master Liu let out a breath and then sighed in a low voice: "I've finished my words. This is just my personal opinion, and it may not be an absolutely accurate judgment." Jia Zhuangyuan looked at me slowly, then nodded calmly and said, "Actually, everyone can accept your judgment. Since there is an earth in the universe, there are all kinds of creatures with various intelligences growing on it. , then there will also be other planets in the universe, and other creatures. According to the different generation time, the IQ of the creatures on each planet will also be different. Now we see that the Wuji Taoist Collection may be a different world as you said A product of that, I personally agree with you." Cabbage caterpillar also raised his head at this time, nodded to Young Master Liu and said with a wry smile, "I agree with you." First Young Master Liu looked at Fan Debiao. It seemed that he hadn't come out of the seemingly absurd remarks he said. For a while, everyone fell silent. After a while, Cai Qingchong finally looked at First Young Master Liu, then turned to Jia Zhuangyuan and said, "What should we do now?" First Young Master Liu glanced at Jia Zhuangyuan, only to see that he drooped his head and seemed to have lost his mind.First Young Master Liu pondered for a while and said, "We are now about to see the truth after going through all kinds of hardships. Do you think we should give up at this time, or continue on?" After finishing speaking, looking at everyone, Fan Debiao took a deep breath and said word by word: "I choose to continue down, I must see the final answer." Cabbage caterpillar nodded slightly and did not speak. At this time, Jia Zhuangyuan raised his head and said, "I don't think we have a choice. Personally, I just want to complete this task and be a normal person who can see the light."
