Chapter 39 Section 38: Preparations before Rescue

Chu Feng waited for a long time for Ling Ning's answer. During this period, his mood fluctuated several times: at first he was ecstatic, but after waiting for a few minutes, he turned into surprise, and then seeing Ling Ning's delay in replying, he thought she was not in good condition, and began to worry.Finally, when he decided to go inside the colossus to check at all costs, Ling Ning's voice finally came faintly: "Brother Chu, is it really you? I'm here! It's like a closed space. I There is a hole three or four meters above the head, and there are two relatively strong rays of light refracting down there, maybe there is a hole there to go in and out." Ling Ning was still different from other girls, and he was still able to calmly tell the rescuer at this time, characteristics of one's own position.

Chu Feng kept his ears on the calf bone of the bronze statue, and at this moment, he clearly heard Ling Ning's words.She must be in the body of the colossus, but which part? There is a hole above the head, two strong lights... Chu Feng pondered for a moment, then raised his head and took a fixed look at the eyes of the bronze giant statue that seemed to be looking into the distance all the time. Could it be its eyes? "Xilin, can you climb on its head?" Chu Feng shouted to Xilin who was already resting on the shoulder of the giant statue. "Can!" "Then look at its eyes and see if there are any gaps!"

"Okay!" Xilin agreed, and climbed onto the head of the giant statue. "No, its eyes are clearly...ah, no!" Xilin suddenly became excited, "Its eyes, its eyes are actually made of black gemstones—such big black gemstones!" "It shouldn't be a black gemstone, at most it's a light gray crystal stone!" When he was yelling, Chu Feng also climbed up with the help of Sangbu holding the legs of the bronze colossus.At this moment, he was pulling the ears of the giant statue, trying his best to look at the pair of eyes that almost seemed to come to life.

"Yes, it looked black just now, but now it looks much lighter!" Xilin took a closer look and nodded in agreement, "What should we do now?" "Of course I want to find a way to pry it off so that I can go in and save people!" Chu Feng was glad that the giant statue had a helmet covering its face, and he could now stand on the top edge of the bronze mask. With the current equipment of the few of them, it is impossible to break the surface of the bronze statue and rescue people, but if it is just to pry an inlaid crystal stone, it is another matter. Some simple tools that Chu Feng had prepared before entering the mountain happened to be useful right now.Sangbu and William also climbed up one after another, and the four were divided into two sides, and each of them dealt with one eye.

Chu Feng was holding a small foldable engineering shovel, and his current mood did not allow him to cherish the object, so he slammed it hard on the edge of the crystal. "Be careful, be careful! Even if it is a crystal, such a large piece is still very valuable!" Xilin was terrified.He still doesn't know the amount of precious stones in the chest and belly of the idol, but he thinks that crystals as big as washbasins are very rare, and maybe they can be pried off and sold for money. Therefore, for Chu Feng's sabotage Some can't understand. Chu Feng had no time to pay attention to him. The inlay of the crystal seemed to use some special technique. He used the tip of the shovel to pry the edge of the crystal, but he couldn’t find a crack, no point of focus, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t use it anywhere. .

Fortunately, although the hardness of the crystal is not bad, it is extremely fragile, so he simply smashed it with brute force, and smashed it to smash it! "Boom, boom, boom—" The voice sounded a bit dull in Ling Ning's ears, but Ling Ning jumped up as if hearing the sounds of nature, "It's Big Brother Chu, it must be him!" She didn't know what to do for a while, she pulled her clothes that were torn and torn everywhere, and pulled her hair for a while—fortunately, she came in wearing a helmet, otherwise she would have become a bald man now. Diarrhea. There was really nothing to sort out, so she anxiously raised her head and stared at the big hole above her head—now that she knew her situation, according to Chu Feng’s judgment, she should be at the breast of the bronze colossus, and the big hole above her head, It should be the neck leading to the head of the colossus.She can see the refracted light below, which should come from the eyes of the giant statue.Right now, Chu Feng is smashing the eyes of the giant statue to open a passage to rescue her.

No, I can't just sit there and wait for Big Brother Chu to come to rescue me, so I have to do something.Ling Ning was fidgeting, she had an ominous premonition in her heart, as if something bad would happen if she didn't do anything and waited for someone to rescue her.Furthermore, that huge monster will appear at some point, if it finds Big Brother Chu and the others, there will probably be a fierce fight. "I have to find a way to go up!" Ling Ning looked at the winding passage above his head - now he knew it was the neck. She started looking for tools.There are several pieces of ivory that are more than three meters long. Ling Ning thinks that they should be a good material for ladders. She finds the two longest ones and leans them side by side on the stone wall.Then he rummaged through the pile of treasures, and finally found a dagger studded with rubies.Without a crossbar, how can this ladder be built?

Chu Feng was still knocking on the top. Although the crystal was very brittle, the one in front of him seemed a bit special. Moreover, Chu Feng and the others were at high altitude, so they didn’t dare to use too much force, so they knocked more than a dozen times. The two crystals remained motionless. Ling Ning was also actively thinking of a way inside, she couldn't find anything to replace the crossbar, and the ladder seemed impossible to build, but she didn't give up, but used the short sword she just found in her hand to pry out a foothold on the stone wall. Speaking of it, it may be that there was not enough bronze when the bronze statue was built, or in order to make the bronze statue stand upright, a layer of bronze was cast on the outside of the bronze statue, but the inside was made of stones.Ling Ning already had experience before, and now he has a relatively handy tool, and the speed of prying is not slow.

When Ling Ning pried out a total of five stones from the place where he was standing to the place where his hand was raised above his head, Chu Feng and the others hadn't dealt with a single crystal.Chu Feng, who was originally calm in dealing with things, became inexplicably impetuous at this time.He held the small shovel tightly with one hand, aimed at a certain point in the center of the crystal and struck it one after another. The force on this place would cause the entire crystal to be completely broken.Originally, Chu Feng didn't want to be so reckless, but now he can't care about it either.

Ling Ning pried out another stone. The builder didn't seem to have a strong construction adhesive at hand, such as cement concrete. It can be taken out easily. Every time she pried out five stones, she supported the ivory to stand up, and then tilted the stone above her head. After a while, she had already stood at the entrance of the neck of the giant statue. The height of the ivory was out of reach, so Ling Ning came back down again, and placed seven or eight ivory in the middle of the space below, forming a circle around them so that they would support each other so that they would not spread apart. Go up the thick ivory to the top, and place them on the first ivory support.Fortunately, the front ends of the ivory are curved, which forms a support that resembles a plane of interlaced teeth.The two thinner ivory roots are placed at the intersection of this support, and the upper end is still leaning against the stone wall—this time it is the stone wall in the neck. Although the space is much smaller than the bottom, it is still loose to accommodate two or three people like Ling Ning. loose!

After Ling Ning stabilized the ivory pillar, he sank down with all his strength, and felt that he could almost bear his own weight, so he continued his manual ladder digging. "Wow!" Just when Ling Ning was about to pass through the three-meter-high "neck" and reach the head of the bronze statue, there was a piercing sound above his head, and Ling Ning subconsciously shrank his neck and crouched down to avoid it. .Sure enough, following the sound came crystal shards, many of which were sharp, fell on Ling Ning and cut the sleeve of her exposed right arm. After waiting for the pain from being hit by some small objects to pass, Ling Ning raised his head tentatively, stretched his neck and looked out of the passage, and saw an old man with a beard anxiously speaking from the voice just now. The source stepped into one leg. "Ling Ning, you're fine! That's great!" Chu Feng didn't expect to see Ling Ning at a glance after smashing the crystal, and was very pleasantly surprised.But why is there something wrong with Ling Ning's eyes? What's with her unbelievable and unacceptable eyes? After Chu Feng stepped out of one leg, he awkwardly closed the other leg. He found that the head of the giant statue was not built with stones. It was a hollow head cast in pure bronze. Sliding down and hitting Ling Ning, he had better get out. Compared to Chu Feng's surprise, Ling Ning was completely shocked - how did he become like this now?Not to mention the beard, it's still scruffy!Ling Ning felt that the image of the perfect man Chu Feng in his mind had collapsed. "You, you, are you Brother Chu?" "Yes! Ling Ning, come on, give me your hand, and I'll pull you out." Although Chu Feng didn't understand why Ling Ning looked like he had seen a ghost, he was still in a good mood: Ling Ning is fine, that is really good! "No, no, no need!" Ling Ning suddenly didn't want to extend her hand to him, she attributed it to her reluctance to go out like this, there is still a room full of treasures underneath! "There are a lot of precious stones and gold coins here. Brother Chu, why don't you give me some bags, and I'll pack more." "Oh?" Chu Feng heard her say that there were many gems and gold coins inside, and his heart was moved. He even wanted to go in and check it out. "Ling Ning, why don't you come out first, and I'll go in and check it out!" "No, Brother Chu, I'm familiar with this place. There are countless gold and silver treasures here, but I don't have anything to put on..." Ling Ning didn't know what was going on in his mind right now. The psychological effect is still that after seeing Chu Feng's completely different image, he suddenly lost confidence in himself, and for a while he felt a bit like a turtle, and wanted to hide in the shell instead of going out. "Well, that's all right! Xilin!" Chu Feng turned around and asked Xilin, "Do you have any extra empty backpacks?" "Only this one, don't let me break it!" Xilin was a little reluctant.Since he rescued Chu Feng, he occupied his backpack, and his original backpack was emptied out. "Okay, give it to me!" Chu Feng put the backpack handed by Xilin into the head of the giant statue, and threw it to Ling Ning's hand.After catching it, Ling Ning only left a sentence: "Wait for me for a while!" and hurried down. Step by step, she went down to the space she was in, opened her backpack, and put as many gems as possible into it. "This is the 'Wangcai' collection!" Chu Feng's voice suddenly rang in her ear, which startled her, "Ah—" she was so frightened that she threw away the half-filled backpack out. "What? I'm so scary right now?" Chu Feng asked with some amusement. "Ah, no, no, it was you who suddenly spoke, and everyone would be shocked! Besides, in this place where gods and gods talk!" Ling Ning turned around and found that it was him, pouted. "These are indeed spit out from the mouth of a monster. That monster is called 'Wangcai'? What an embarrassing name!" It's strange that Ling Ning no longer feels disgusted at all when touching these things. It should be jewelry Is it too attractive for girls? "If the monster you said looks like a three-legged toad, then you are right. Everyone in the world knows that where the three-legged golden toad lives, there must be treasures underground, but no one thinks that these treasures are this kind of creature Because of a certain instinct, I collected it myself." Chu Feng explained while helping Ling Ning pack things.He also saw the astonishing amount of gold coins: "This is?" "Gold coins! It looks like ancient Greece!" "That's right, if I'm not mistaken, this portrait should be that of Alexander the Great. This is a gold coin issued during his reign." Chu Feng picked up a gold coin with a seated statue of Zeus, pondered for a moment and said, "However, history books According to records, Alexander the Great issued silver coins with seated statues of the hero Hercules and the main god Zeus, and gold coins with the goddess of Athens and the goddess of victory Nike. I have never heard of gold coins with standing and seated statues of Zeus! Moreover, contemporary silver coins Why can't I find one here?" "Maybe that big guy doesn't like silver ones! Or maybe all the silver coins are under the pressure." Ling Ning guessed. "Maybe! Is the backpack full?" Chu Feng asked while digging holes in the pile of treasures with the shovel in his hand, hoping to find more valuable items among them. "Okay!" Even though Ling Ning had packed his backpack to the point where he could no longer hold a single item, the treasures here were no different from the original. "Brother Chu, where are you?" William and the others who stayed outside finally couldn't help it, and one by one they all got in through the broken eye. At this moment, the sound of "Zha Zha Zha" came, and both Chu Feng and Ling Ning felt a violent vibration, and then, there was a gentle tilting feeling, and the two looked at each other - not good!
