Chapter 109 Chapter 19 Linglong Pillar

Just now everyone pictured in their minds the scene of the underground flood rushing in, but there are surprises everywhere in the underground world.Compared with the previous time, the water gushed in this time was like a trickle, and the eight eyes of the four people were startled and bulging.However, the subterranean flood came weakly but not violently, which is the best thing for us.Even so, the underground flood is an underground flood after all, and it did not come carelessly at all. The water pouring down from the outlet above rushed towards us like the water from the gate.There was a lot of stagnant water in the cave hall, but now a large amount of groundwater is continuously poured in, and the water level has risen a lot at once.We have time to prepare this time, unlike last time when we didn't have time to react.When the water level was below my waist, I hugged the old curator Zha, and I didn't feel tired because of the buoyancy of the water.

The groundwater reached the waist after a while, and I wrapped the old curator Zha carefully to prevent him from choking on the groundwater with a strong smell of nitrate.Fortunately, there is a waterfall mouth in the cave hall, and the underground flood water is heading there, so when the underground flood water did not reach our waists, it did not continue to rise.Since we are all near the mouth of the waterfall, the force of the water flow is huge. If we hadn't caught the raised stones, we would have been washed down together.Chen Jing said that she didn't expect the water to come very slowly, and I said that if it's as good as before, if our heads are washed by the water on the rock, then the rock will bloom.Chen Jing hugged the protruding stone to avoid being washed away. She raised her eyebrows when she heard what I said, and said that the water is not bad now, and she will fill in the big cave below to make it more solid, so she jumped directly.I hugged the old curator Cha, panting and said, is this the reason you said, you can wait for the flood to come in again before you can go down, wait for the flood to fill the big cave hall, and then I will watch you perform a diving show ?It would be better to climb down slowly just now, it would be a waste of time to wait and go.Chen Jing only replied, how far can you climb?

I sounded strange, and recalled the scene I saw just now. The drop below is not too big, but it is not impossible to climb down. What does Chen Jing mean by this?The underground flood was getting more and more fierce. I hugged the old curator Zha nervously, so I could only hold the stone with one hand to fix my position. Two or three times I was almost washed away.After nearly an hour, there was finally water about ten meters deep in the big cave hall below.I saw that so much water was enough for divers to perform, so I asked: "Chen Jing, can we go down, we don't have much time!"

After Chen Jing listened, she looked at the waterproof and pressure-resistant watch on her wrist. It was eight o'clock in the evening on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. She nodded to us and agreed to dive now.The Great Cave Hall consisted of nothing but a large pillar, and the protruding stalactites were greatly interrupted, so that we should not be unlucky enough to bump into the stones.The only thing to consider is the old curator Cha, he is still in a coma, we can't take him down, even if he wakes up now, he doesn't have the strength to swim in the water, let alone this time Even I don't know what to do.After thinking it over and over again, I decided to let Xin Hong stay with the old curator Zha, and the three of us can go down.Because in case the old curator Zha woke up suddenly, Xinhong could hurry up and ask about his mother. No matter how old curator Zha looked at him, he was a person who didn’t have much time, so I was really worried.

Everyone agreed with this decision. Xinhong told us again and again that we should run away when we are in danger, and never try to be brave. I was very angry when I heard it, as if we were all useless.But think about it, he is also doing it for our own good. The underground world is full of too many unknown dangers. If you are not careful, you will really stay underground forever.Before going down, there is one lighting tool for each team, which happens to be waterproof and pressure-proof.We followed the water and entered the mouth of the waterfall, and only then did we see the whole picture of the flooded Great Cave Hall.I have been wondering just now, did the big cave hall at the bottom mean that it could not be filled all the time, why can it be filled by the big flood this time?When I was still wondering, Chen Jing gave me and Aunt Yu two elastic balls each, and she asked us to put them in our ears so as not to hurt our ears when diving.In the end, she gave us another small red pill, saying that it was a secret recipe of her family, which can maintain the balance of the body and pressure during diving.Anyway, Chen Jing would not harm us, so she swallowed it like candy.

Ten meters deep groundwater accumulated in the big cave hall, but a vortex formed around the big pillar in the center, which made me hesitate for a while, it seems that the pillar has a lot to say.Could it be that the pillar can absorb the water flow, and then guide the water flow elsewhere, just like the random door of the Doraemon, so that the red beast can run into the pillar and disappear?Before I could continue to think about it, Chen Jing and Aunt Yu had already dived down, and in a hurry, I also jumped down in a daze.I thought it would take a lot of effort to swim to the big pillar after going down, but I didn't know that there was a force in the water that pulled the three of us directly to the center of the cave hall.I was shocked, this is the power of the vortex!When I was looking at it just now, the vortex was not that big, so how could it be so powerful.

So much water poured down from the top, but the hole cannot be filled for a long time. It may be that there is a lot of water lost from the pillar, so the volume of the water flow cannot be balanced for a long time.If there is a lot of loss, the power of the vortex formed will increase accordingly, which we should have thought of earlier.If it pulls us straight to the big pillar, wouldn't we just be lighting the lamp in the toilet-looking for shit (looking for death)?When we got close to the big pillar, I finally found out that it really has a lot to say. I have never been able to understand that from the entrance of the cave to this place, almost all the stalactites were interrupted, no matter how big or small, they were not let go.I was depressed just now, why the Wuhu people who lived here before did this, I didn’t understand until I saw the big pillar in the center—this pillar is not a natural pillar at all, it is artificially made!It can also be said that this pillar is not a pillar, it is just piled up by thousands of stalactites.Piece by piece from top to bottom, and there is no adhesive between the stalactites, they are simply piled together.After being hit by the flood, the pillars are still as strong as new. I really admire the wisdom of the Wuhu people.There are gaps everywhere on the pillars, no wonder the water flow has not been able to fill the big cave, and there is a big gap at the bottom, I don't know if the ancestors left it on purpose.The red beast just now probably ran in from here, so we had the illusion that it ran into the pillar, but it did run into the pillar.

As the water flowed to the side of the big pillar, it was huge and abnormal, with a radius of more than ten meters, and it was actually hollow in the middle.This is not the most surprising thing to me. The most powerful thing is that the top and tail of the pillar did not touch the big cave hall. No wonder we felt blurred when looking at the mouth of the waterfall.There is a hole at both ends of the big pillar that is bigger than the pillar. The pillar crosses these two holes. No wonder they give us the feeling that we have not touched the big cave hall.It seems that the big pillar is not an ordinary perennial feeling. It not only grows up to the ground, but also reaches to the sky.Could it be Zhenshan Shenzhen?

Chen Jing made a gesture, and then led me down and into the water.However, Aunt Yu did not dive with us, she was still floating on the water and refused to come down.The current is extremely chaotic, and it is difficult to come up after diving, so I had to let Aunt Yu do what she wanted.Chen Jing led me into the hole at the end of the big pillar. There was a lot of space inside, and the water was hitting the pillar desperately, making a pleasant sound.There was no trace of the red beast in the pillar, and it probably ran to another place. At this time, the voice of Zhenqin also suddenly ended.The groundwater is mixed with nitrate, and the light in Chen Jing's hand can't illuminate the water well. I just feel that the space inside the pillar is not small, and the bottom of the pillar is dark, and ghosts don't know where it leads.

I looked up and saw that Aunt Yu had already climbed up the big pillar, and was still climbing up step by step.The pillars are all made of stalactites, uneven, and it is not difficult to climb up.At first I thought this big pillar was not strong, because it doesn't use any adhesive, but now it has been proved that it will not collapse, and it can let us climb up and down, even if the rude red beast bumps into the pillar. nothing.Aunt Yu continued to climb up, without any intention of stopping. I wondered how she knew that Xiaoyan must be on the pillar. Twenty years ago, she was able to do so after she came in with the old curator. Are you clear about everything?

Chen Jing noticed that I was in a daze again, so she dragged me down to dive.After taking the medicine she gave, I didn't feel much discomfort in the water, but I just walked down the pillar slowly, feeling extremely cold.The pillar is a bit like bamboo, and it passes through the underground cave layer by layer and continues down.I really didn't expect that there are so many layers of caves here, and they can be used as underground high-rises!The gaps in each layer of the cave are artificially made, and I saw traces of forging on the edges. It seems that the people of Wuhu knew that the caves they lived in had many layers, but I don’t know what this pillar is used for. understood.Chen Jing has been leading me to drill down, which makes me confused. How could the flowers and medicines she mentioned grow in such a ghostly place? The Chen Jing in front of me must not be a fake!The more I think about it, the more frightened I become. In a dark place, falling all the time makes everyone nervous.When I thought of this, I accelerated down and grabbed Chen Jing in front of me.Unexpectedly, at this time she made a gesture to tell me to be quiet, and a strange scene that is absolutely rare in the world slowly appeared in front of her eyes.
