Chapter 302: Waterfall and Broken Mountain Cliff
Li Yu kept picking up the rocks on the top of the mountain and inspecting them carefully. After throwing them down, he picked up another piece and continued to inspect it. After looking at it for confirmation, he still felt that it was not careful enough, so he picked up another piece of volcanic rock with his other hand and used two
The rocks hit each other hard.
The two pieces of volcanic rock suddenly flew apart and collided into several fragments. Bending down, Li Yu saw grains of crystal-like material from the inside of the stone on the ground. Both in terms of arrangement, shape and general appearance, they were all...
It is an incidental crystal unique to volcanic rocks.
It seems that there is nothing wrong. Only the intrusive rocks of active volcanoes have the characteristics. Now Li Yu has basically confirmed that this steep and straight mountain must be an active volcano. Judging from the surrounding moisture and temperature,
The frequency of activity is still very high, but it is not a spray type, but continuous, slow-acting, and invasive. Without certain professional knowledge, it is difficult to know the mystery.
"Young Master, are we still leaving?" Liu Zhen saw Li Yu's expression was a little strange. She had never seen him with such a solemn expression before, and she felt a little uneasy.
"Let's go and have a look in front. Maybe we will take the water route next. If my guess is correct." Li Yu said something like this without thinking, and Liu Zhen was a little confused.
"Take the water route, where is the water here? Young Master, did you find anything?"
Seeing Liu Zhen's face covered with sweat, Li Yu said: "Nothing? Just hold on, we're going to be fine in Mashan. According to my experience, the volcanic rocks on this mountain are all intrusive, so we can determine the extent of the volcanic magma crust."
The movement site is still far away from the ground, so when the terrifying magma heat reaches the surface, a large amount of heat has been lost, but the residual heat still inhibits the normal growth of plants."
"As for the waterway, it is because of the surrounding moisture and evaporation of water vapor. There will not be such a thick fog here. In fact, this is not fog, but mountain spring water. Under the influence of high temperature of volcanic rocks, it evaporates to form water mist. Therefore, it is judged
, there must be a certain amount of water in front, maybe the area is not small." Li Yu didn't know whether he said it to Xiaozhen or to himself.
"What?" But Xiaozhen looked at Li Yu dumbly as if listening to a book from heaven. In fact, Xiaozhen didn't understand a word of these words, but she heard what her young master brother said about mountain springs and water.
Steam, water lines and so on.
Seeing Xiaozhen's appearance, Li Yu was not surprised. He shook his head and said self-deprecatingly: "Look, what's the use of telling you this? I can't explain it to you for a while. Alas, let's forget it."
Okay, stop talking, let's keep walking." After speaking, Li Yu threw away the volcanic rock fragments in his hand, clapped his hands left and right and said.
Although Li Yu didn't explain clearly, Liu Zhen was also confused, but she felt that this place was so weird that it was real. Judging from the young master's expression, it seemed that he was very familiar with this place, so he didn't think much and just followed.
Li Yu continued to move forward.
Gradually, as the two walked through, the humidity became heavier and heavier. There was smoke-like water vapor everywhere, and the road under their feet became wet. Occasionally, they could feel the presence of ankle-deep streams.
I also heard the sound of rushing water.
"Young master, there is water, but we can't see anything clearly in front of us. Where should we go?" Xiaozhen felt frightened for the first time at this time. The water under her feet gradually became deeper and deeper, reaching her knees.
She was so frightened that she pulled on Li Yu's clothes tightly and did not dare to relax at all.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaozhen. You feel that the general direction of the commander's barracks has not changed much, right?" Li Yu also tried his best to look at the surrounding environment, but due to the increase in humidity, he still found nothing. He could only move forward blindly because of the water.
The temperature is not very high and does not exceed the tolerance of normal people.
"It should be so. If it deviates, at least it won't be that big? That's the nearby area!" We have come this far, and although it is a blur, Xiaozhen's tone of speaking can still feel very confident.
"Why are you so sure?" Li Yu glanced at Liu Zhen who was close at hand and said.
"I don't know very well, but I came in the dark when I came here. Although I marked the road, the situation was very noisy at that time, and there were many pursuers and alien troops. We were also panicked.
, but when we got close to the mountain peak, we saw the mark I left, so I was sure there would be no big direction error. Although the young master and brother climbed up, according to the direction, it should be away from the commander's camp.
Not far away.”
Seeing Xiaozhen's doubtful but slightly confident face, Li Yu also felt that this should be the case. Because when he came, Li Yu did not follow Xiaozhen's guidance, but also went through the test of directions. This was the special situation in his previous life.
A special skill of contingent training.
This kind of identification includes a comprehensive judgment that is mixed with factors such as light, marks, various reference objects, and even smell.
Speaking of smell, Li Yu seemed to feel a very familiar smell in the deeper and deeper water. It was as if he had been exposed to it for a short time. This was not something that ordinary people could feel. For Li Yu,
It is said that it is an instinct honed in long-term battles.
As this feeling became more and more intense, Li Yu began to doubt the smell of this water. It seemed that he had come into contact with it somewhere before, and he was very sure about it, but he just couldn't remember where he had come into contact with it. But the more anxious he became, the more
I can't even think of where I've come in contact with him.
So, he simply gave up and began to grope forward slowly along the stream. He didn't know what the road ahead was, but Li Yu felt that he was about to get out of the steamy place, because as the two of them moved forward,
At that moment, the wet mist seemed to be dissipating.
When entering the water, both of them felt that the temperature of the water was not like the outside world, which was cold and cool. Instead, they felt a mild moistness and warmth, like taking a hot bath. However, the water temperature is not static and changes with time.
As they continued to move forward, the temperature of the water was getting higher and higher, which gave Xiaozhen a sense of fear and felt that this place was not ordinary weird.
"Young master, why is the water here getting hotter and hotter? It seems like someone is heating the water with a fire underneath?" Liu Zhen said a little worried.
"Don't worry, let's take a walk again. Didn't you hear the sound of running water? This means there is living water and there must be a passage. And the sound of the running water is getting louder and louder, which means we will arrive soon.
We've reached our destination, just hold on and we'll get there." After saying that, Li Yu grabbed Xiao Zhen's hand and squeezed it tightly. Only then did Liu Zhen's heart calm down, and she no longer had the extreme panic she had before.
Li Yu knew that as the water temperature got higher and higher, it meant that we were getting closer to the center of the volcanic rocks. Or if we walked forward after reaching the center, the fog would gradually dissipate and all the scenery would become clear.
Then you can easily find the exit going down the mountain. After going down the mountain, you can go to the general direction of the commander's camp that Xiaozhen mentioned.
The two continued to move forward, but the water temperature was getting higher and higher, and the sound of running water became clearer and clearer. When the water temperature was almost reaching the range that normal people could not bear, Li Yu felt that because Xiaozhen was with him,
If she continues to move forward, Xiaozhen will not be able to withstand such a high water temperature. Thinking of this, Li Yu said:
"It seems we can't move on. If we continue like this, even if we find the exit from the top of the mountain, you and I will be cooked. Let's turn around!"
When Li Yu said this, Xiaozhen took two steps forward and said: "If we go further and see, maybe we will pass..."
Xiaozhen's words were not finished yet. The two of them were groping forward hand in hand. Suddenly, their feet slipped. Due to Xiaozhen's sudden fall, Li Yu, who was holding Xiaozhen, suddenly jumped into the air and lost his center of gravity. In addition, the water flow was slippery.
The surrounding environment was in a haze, and without any preparation, the whole body drifted down the water rapidly.
At the same time, the two finally saw clearly where they were, which was the edge of a cliff. Because there was fog all around, they couldn't see clearly where they had reached. When their feet slipped, the two of them
A person fell directly from a high cliff. The two of them were on the edge of a waterfall on the cliff mountain. Due to their blurred vision, neither of them realized that there was a waterfall in front of them.
"Brother, young master, this is a cliff..." This is what Xiaozhen said when she fell to the edge of the cliff with the flowing water. But before she could finish her words, Xiaozhen followed Li Yu and fell directly along the flowing water.
But just as the two fell down, the moisture dissipated and the fog cleared, and the surrounding scenery became fully visible.
That was the edge of the cliff. Due to the hazy fog on the cliff, the two of them couldn't see anything clearly. They didn't expect to walk directly to the edge of the cliff, and then fell directly from the top.
Li Yu also wanted to turn around, because he felt that he had no line of sight and could not see anything clearly. In this case, even if the direction was correct, he still could not take risks if he continued to move forward when the situation was unclear.
, unexpected surprises will occur.
But when Li Yu thought of this, she didn't have time to react. The thought of turning around just came to mind, but Liu Zhen insisted on taking a few more steps. But in just two or three steps, she actually reached the edge of the waterfall's cliff.
.
Due to the misty water vapor, this place became a blind spot. In fact, it was just as Li Yu imagined. Because the fog began to become lighter, Li Yu felt that he was about to get out of this rich water vapor range, but what he didn't expect was that,
That is to say, we are almost out of this range, but we have already reached the edge of the cliff, but it is too late to say anything at this time.
The two of them were groping for a period of time. In fact, they were highly vigilant at the beginning and gradually relaxed later. This is their usual thinking. No one would be in a state of high alert all the time, but sometimes it is often just that moment.
At that time, that is to say, when Li Yu and Xiaozhen were feeling a little tired and relaxed, something happened.
"Ah..." As the two people exclaimed, their bodies moved weightlessly from the top of the cliff, along the water flowing on the cliff, directly under their feet, from top to bottom, at an unimaginable speed,
