Chapter 149 Chapter 32: Small tea seedlings

The loud noise was very close, I wondered what Li Xiaobei and Meizicha were doing, could it be that they farted loudly.Looking back, the plum tea man was gone, only Li Xiaobei was left standing on the snow in a daze.I thought the plum tea was back in the cave, but when I looked at it again, I felt something was wrong. When did the opening of the abyss become so long? The abyss runs across the center of the valley, and only one or two people can pass through at both ends. There was still a way to go there before.Now those roads are gone, there is no way to go at either end, and the gap has widened.I quickly understood that the loud noise I heard yesterday before entering the valley was actually the ice and snow covering the opening of the abyss that couldn't hold on and fell down.At first, we all thought that the gap in the abyss was not that long. Who would have thought that the two trails next to it would be hollow, and the snow would collapse under too much pressure.

Li Xiaobei stayed for a while, then looked at me and said, "Fuck, the plum tea fell!" "Ah! So unlucky?" I exclaimed in surprise, this is a good time, the bottom of the abyss is more than ten meters from the ground, and the plum tea is probably hopeless. Luckily, Li Xiaobei drank too much wine and took a long time to urinate, otherwise he would be the one who fell down.Plum tea stepped on the snowy road, and there was no way to go at the end of the abyss. Li Xiaobei could only look at the "abyss" and sigh.The road at the other end has not yet collapsed, but the collapse just now has made people feel psychologically shadowed, even if you are Zhang Fei, you dare not step on it.The gap in the abyss was five or six meters wide, and Li Xiaobei would definitely not be able to jump over it, so he shrugged and smiled wryly at me.

After dawn, the snow and fog cleared and the light was bright.When we walked here yesterday, the sky was already dark, and the abyss was pitch black, and nothing could be seen at all.I walked to the edge of the abyss with trepidation, poked my head out and looked down, there were pieces of golden light flashing underneath, I don't know what it is.I shaded my view with my hands and realized that there was water below, reflecting the sun's rays.If there is a pool of water under the abyss, then plum tea may still save my life, as long as I haven't drowned. I didn't dare to shout too loudly, lest it trigger an avalanche, so I yelled a few words in a low voice.It seems that the sound cannot be transmitted to the bottom of the abyss, and the sound below cannot be transmitted, as if it is separated by something.Who would have thought that urinating would result in death. It seems that we will have to find the right place to urinate in the future.The fate of plum tea is still uncertain, and I anxiously wanted to jump down to find someone, but reason advised me not to be too impulsive.

When Mu Qingxiang heard the sound, she walked out of the cave and asked me what was wrong. When she knew that the plum tea had fallen into the abyss, she sighed helplessly.I frowned, and thought to myself, do you think we are all causing trouble? This is not something that people can control.Without saying a word, Mu Qingxiang went back to the cave to find the rope, and immediately said that she would go down to catch people.We still don't know how deep the abyss is, and everything under it is unknown, so it's too dangerous to climb down rashly. When I saw this, I persuaded: "There may be ferocious beasts under the abyss. You saw it yesterday, so don't rush down to find someone."

"Don't worry about it like this? I have to go down, go down earlier, maybe the plum tea can save me." Mu Qingxiang said. Li Xiaobei shouted across the abyss: "Xiaolu, Qingxiang, you just throw the rope to me, and I'll just go down." I waved my hand and said, "This is impossible! It's too dangerous to go down alone, God knows what's underneath." There is still no movement under the abyss, even if plum tea is dead, we can't just ignore it.After thinking about it, I decided to go down with Li Xiaobei to save people, and Mu Qingxiang stayed on the ground to guard the rope and other things.Fortunately, we expected to climb into the water, and prepared several ropes and protective gear.However, each of the ropes we prepared is only 20 meters long. If the abyss exceeds 20 meters, it will be a big trouble.

Mu Qingxiang was not polite to us and asked her to stay on the ground, but she didn't pretend to fight to get down.In fact, the three of them did have to leave one of them on the ground, lest someone cut the rope on the ground.The weather is fine today, and there should be no more snow, which is probably a good sign.Let's do what we say, we can't still wander in the valley today, we have to get out of the valley quickly anyway. I tossed a bundle of ropes to Li Xiaobei, and the two of them got ready, and after fastening the ropes, they slowly slid down into the abyss.After the snow stopped, the valley was not so cold, but as soon as I entered the abyss, I felt that my teeth were about to freeze off.Since the sun was hanging above the abyss, we didn't dare to look up when we slid down, and we all focused on the abyss.The rock wall inside is very steep, but it is not difficult to climb, as long as the limbs are healthy.

A few minutes later, I came to the bottom of the abyss. Calculated from the length of the rope, it should be only more than 20 meters deep.I untied the protective gear, turned around and wanted to ask Li Xiaobei if he had come down, but when I turned around, I saw a circle of people standing under the abyss.I was startled, wondering what the hell are these people doing here, are they trying to scare people?When my mind calmed down, I realized that these were all bronze statues. They were fixedly standing under the abyss, forming a circle, as if they were guarding something important. Li Xiaobei was a few beats behind me. I didn't see anything moving after I got down. I realized that there was no danger for the time being and I immediately looked for plum tea.There is a pool in a corner under the abyss, but fortunately it has not frozen, otherwise the plum tea would really be dead.I saw the water fluctuate, Meizicha had climbed to the shore by itself, but half of her body remained in the cold pool.

I hurriedly walked over to drag out the plum tea, but fortunately the cold pool was bottomless, and the plum tea swam ashore again after falling.If it were someone else, they might faint when they fell into the pond, and then drown in it.Meizicha cared about her son in her heart, and swam to the shore with all her life. This strength is probably a father's love.While I was admiring, I brought the plum tea ashore. Li Xiaobei, who came late, hurriedly asked if the plum tea was dead. I took a deep breath and said, "He's still alive, don't worry, it's his fate!" Li Xiaobei took out a piece of saltpeter and gave Plum Tea a sniff. Plum Tea immediately sneezed and woke up instantly.I finally let go of my hanging heart, and hurriedly asked if Meizicha could still stand up. If not, let's rest under the abyss for a while.Sure enough, although the plum tea was fine, I couldn't stand up on my feet, and they were still weak.I raised my head and shouted to Mu Qingxiang up there, telling her to throw down some dry clothes so that I could change the wet ones for plum tea.

Plum Tea's lips turned purple-black, her whole body was shaking non-stop, and her body was completely out of control.After Mu Qingxiang wrapped the clothes and threw them away, Li Xiaobei and I helped Meizicha change the clothes.But this was not enough, the plum tea was still cold all over, Li Xiaobei took out the flagon without thinking, and poured a few sips of wine into the plum tea.I guess I won't be able to climb up for a while, and it will take a while for Plum Tea to recover its strength, so I simply walked around the abyss first. It's gloomy and cold down here, it's like a natural icehouse.The yellowed bones scattered on the black gravel may be the bones of tea apes and other things. They were all eaten by monsters in the abyss.Last night, the celestial snake was dispatched and drove away the monsters in the abyss. I think that mysterious celestial snake did us a big favor.I saw a lot of smelly bones under the abyss, coupled with the cold and dark environment, my body trembled involuntarily for a few times.

When I walked to the side of the bronze figure, I leaned over to observe it, only to find that the bronze figure had no clothes on, and was completely naked.I thought to myself that it was not the bronze man, but the bronze tea ape. The tea ape must have appeared in the Qionglai Mountains before humans.These tea apes were all staring at the center of the bottom of the abyss. I looked there suspiciously, but I didn't see anything surprising, only a small tea seedling. I was surprised that tea seedlings could grow in such a dark and cold place. The vitality of the tea seedlings is too tenacious.Tea trees will stop growing in an environment below 5 degrees Celsius, and there is not enough sunlight in the abyss. There are no other plants here except moss.I walked over curiously to see the small tea seedling. It was less than half a meter high, but the leaves were fat and the branches were thick, and it didn't look like it was malnourished.I thought to myself, maybe the monsters under the abyss have been watered with feces and urine for a long time, so that's why they look so good.

Thinking of this, I took a few steps back holding my nose, only to find a few gold bricks piled up in the soil of the small tea seedlings.I was surprised to push away the snow and dirt with my hands. Although the eroded gold bricks have changed color, they still maintain their golden features.A small tea seedling needs to be surrounded by gold bricks in the soil, which shows that it is not an ordinary thing, but I can't see anything special about this small tea seedling.This kind of tea tree is very common outside the mountain, and it is not a rare species. You can buy more than ten tea trees for five yuan on the street. I looked around the bottom of the abyss. Someone must have been here before, and the bronze tea ape would never come down by itself.Even a fool can see that the tea monkey bronze statue is an ancient relic, and it may have been under here as early as the Tang Dynasty.However, that little tea seedling seems to be only a few years old. If it has grown for thousands of years, it will never be so short.I leaned down and looked at the tea seedling for a full two minutes, but I still couldn't see anything strange. Mu Qingxiang asked me on it: "What are you doing, if it's okay, quickly bring the plum tea." I shouted to the top: "I found a tea seedling, there seems to be a problem." Mu Qingxiang asked me what questions I had, but I couldn't answer for a while, so I brought the topic to the bronze statue of the tea monkey.Mu Qingxiang couldn't guess why there was such a thing under the abyss, and she didn't have the heart to think about it, so she kept urging us to come up quickly.I walked back to Plum Tea, his face was pale, his lips were black and purple, and his recovery was too slow.I'm not a powerful King Kong, I can't carry a grown man up and down, I can only wait for his physical strength to recover and climb up by myself. Li Xiaobei thought the same as me, so he kept drinking plum tea to make him feel warm.I could have tied a rope to Meizicha and let Mu Qingxiang pull her up, but that didn't work either.Although I have confidence in Mu Qingxiang's strength, I am worried that Meizicha will lose control of her hands and feet and may crash into a steep rock and die.He had to wait until Meizicha was able to move his limbs, then put the rope and protective gear on him, and then let Mu Qingxiang pull him up. At this moment, Meizicha moved her lips, trying hard to speak.From the time I dragged him out of the water to now, Plum Tea is still unable to speak.I thought he was going to say thank you for saving your life, and I will never forget it, but he raised his hand with difficulty and pointed to the cold pool.Li Xiaobei and I looked at the water in doubt, and before Meizicha could say a word, a tall thing crawled out of the cold pool.
