Chapter 513 Death Zone
This crack was indeed as Old Man Yuan said. Although it was not very long, it was twists and turns with many twists and turns. After walking for a long time, we reached the end of the crack and suddenly a rock wall appeared. This cliff towered into the clouds.
, it stretches endlessly, and it is almost impossible to climb over it. It is really like a high wall, which just prevents people from going around to the other side.
So, we walked along this kind of mountain peak and looked for the entrance of the cave on the rock wall above. However, after walking for a long time, we didn't see it, so everyone became less and less confident as we searched.
According to Old Man Yuan, this kind of mountain peak stretches for hundreds of miles, so finding a hole in the cliff in this way is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
When we were resting, my cousin frowned and seemed to be reflecting on his method. Everyone also felt that even on such a mountain peak, there are caves that pass through the mountain. This method can be used to find it.
I don't know if I will find the Year of the Monkey, the Horse and the Moon.
When everyone expressed their doubts, my cousin shook his head and said firmly: "In my judgment, this kind of cave should not be far from the crack and should be easy to find. Otherwise, those people would also
There is no need to go to great lengths to build that kind of stone pillar to confuse everyone."
After saying this, he said to himself: "Normally, we wouldn't be able to find the cave after walking for so long. Is our method of finding it wrong?"
After a while, he seemed to suddenly think of something, his eyes lit up, and he said a little excitedly: "Maybe the way we are looking is wrong. Let's stop looking forward and look back."
When my cousin said this, everyone was confused - we came all the way and looked very carefully, but we didn't see any holes on the cliff. We should continue to look forward. How to look back?
What's even more strange is that my cousin made a strange request. He said to the female translator: "Miss Zhizi, can you lend me your gauze scarf?"
When she came out today, the female translator had a gauze scarf wrapped around her head. This gauze scarf is almost translucent and very thin. It is actually just a decorative gauze scarf and has little practical value.
The female translator was stunned for a moment, then quickly took off the gauze scarf, handed it to her cousin and said, "Of course, but what is the use of the gauze scarf?"
My cousin smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "Use a gauze scarf to find the entrance to the hole."
The more we listened, the more confused we became. Use a gauze scarf to find the entrance of the hole. What is the connection between the gauze scarf and the entrance of the hole? This sounds ridiculous, but we all know that my cousin is definitely not joking. When we were about to ask carefully, we just
Seeing that my cousin had already taken the gauze scarf in his hand, he turned around and walked back, so we had no choice but to follow him back.
Originally, if we were to search again, we should have searched more carefully and walked slower than the first time, but my cousin walked very fast this time, much faster than when he came.
After walking back for a long time, I still didn't see any cave entrance, but my cousin was not discouraged at all. Instead, he pressed the gauze scarf against the stone wall and continued walking forward. He was about to reach the junction of the crack and the cliff.
, at this time, everyone also gave up hope and followed their cousin with a little loss in their hearts.
At this moment, my cousin suddenly stopped at a place, pointed at the cliff and said excitedly: "The entrance to the cave is right here."
We were all surprised and quickly looked towards the rock wall, but we didn't find any cave.
"Look, there is air blowing out from the cliff here," my uncle said, pointing to the gauze. As he said, there is really air flowing out from the rock wall there, and from the fluttering gauze
You can see it on the towel.
We all stretched out our hands to feel it, and sure enough we could feel an airflow blowing out from there, but this airflow was not very strong. If it weren't for the gauze, we wouldn't have noticed it at all. Everyone came over and took a closer look.
On the rock wall there, it was found that the air flow was blown out from a crack in the stone.
Only then did we suddenly realize what was going on - if there was a hole in the rock wall, it might have been blocked, but because it was a hole, if it was not completely blocked, there might be airflow through the gap.
When I came out, just thinking about this, my cousin thought of using a gauze scarf, because the gauze scarf is very light and will definitely float when it encounters the airflow blowing from the cliff.
Needless to say, this stone crevice should be the location of the cave entrance.
"Xiao Lei, I need to use your engineer shovel again."
Under the command of his uncle, Xiao Lei used the diamond head of the engineer shovel to quickly drill out a large piece from the crack in the stone. At this time, a dark hole appeared in front of us.
Everyone was excited. Xiao Lei and I grabbed the edge of the gap, then pushed it out hard, and the stone blocking the entrance was completely moved away by us.
The entrance of this cave is not big. You can only go in by lying on your stomach. It is dark inside. But because it was daytime, we didn’t think of going into the cave before we came, so we didn’t bring a flashlight. Only Xiaolei had a portable small one in his backpack.
Flashlight.
"It's so dark in the cave, why don't we go back and get a flashlight, and then get in?" Madman Six suggested from the side, but his cousin shook his head and said, "No, look, the airflow blowing out of the cave is so strong, this
The hole is very transparent and shouldn’t be too deep.”
Xiao Lei still insisted on being the first to go in to explore the path. After he entered, he made sure that everything was okay, and then we climbed in one after another. After climbing in, we discovered that the cave was actually very big.
Hit the roof of the cave.
Xiao Lei led the way with a flashlight, and we followed him closely. To our surprise, the cave was very straight, with almost no curvature. It should not have been formed naturally, but more like it was built artificially.
After walking forward for a while, we saw a bright spot in front of us. Everyone was very excited and knew that it should be the entrance of the cave.
Sure enough, when we got closer, we saw that it was indeed the entrance to the cave, and the entrance was not blocked, but it was about the same size as the entrance we came in from, so everyone climbed out immediately.
After I got out, I felt a little dizzy under the bright sunshine. I also felt that the light outside was very dazzling. It took me a while to fully adapt.
Kenya said excitedly: "Look, we are coming!"
We quickly looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, we were already on the other side of the crack! It was like "you can't find anything even if you break through iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there."
We passed the junction of the crack and the mountain, stood on the edge of the crack and looked at the opposite side. We were still on that side just now, and we had no idea how to get here, but we didn't expect that we actually came here so quickly. Of course, this is all
The credit of my cousin.
"Oh, I have lived here for decades and I have never been able to come over, and now I finally come over," Old Yuan said with emotion.
"Have you noticed anything different here?" Our cousin asked us suddenly. After hearing his question, we quickly looked around - there were stones, grass, and trees around us. Compared with the opposite side, there didn't seem to be anything special.
place.
"There's nothing special here. Why are there people so afraid of people coming over?" Hongmei looked around and said in confusion.
"If you take a closer look, don't you really find something special?" our cousin reminded us.
"I noticed, are there no dragonflies here?" Crazy Six asked tentatively. After he said this, we quickly looked around again, and sure enough, there was not a dragonfly around.
When I looked into the distance, I still didn't see a single dragonfly.
It is said that in the mountains in our area, dragonflies are the most abundant in early autumn, especially in this sunny weather. You can see dragonflies wherever you go. When we are on the opposite side, you can encounter them casually.
I saw a group of dragonflies, but there were no dragonflies on this side. It was a bit strange!
After hearing what Crazy Six said, my cousin did not answer immediately. Instead, his expression became extremely serious. His voice was not loud, but he said clearly: "Not only are there no dragonflies, but also grasshoppers, birds, bees, and even any insects."
None”.
As soon as my cousin said these words, my hair stood on end. Even in this bright sunshine, I still felt a gloomy air coming towards me!
Everyone was shocked by what our cousin said. We looked around again, then dug through the grass, and even lay down on the ground, hoping to find an insect or a living thing.
But it was incredible - we didn't see a single grasshopper, caterpillar, chafer, or any kind of insect in the grass, not even an ant.
I got goosebumps all over my body. These insects should be everywhere, but how come there aren’t any here?
After a long while, everyone stood up with pale faces, staring blankly at their cousin, waiting for him to explain - this side is really weird, except for these flowers, plants and trees, there is no living thing!
"Cousin, why is this happening? Why is there not an animal on this side? What is going on?" Sister Li asked with a look of horror on her face.
My cousin shook his head silently: "I don't know either, but I noticed this as soon as I got here. There is only one possibility for such a situation - no animal can reach this side.
Survival, this seems like a death zone."
My cousin spoke very slowly, almost word by word, with an expression as if he was still thinking about something. Suddenly, he suddenly said: "Let's go back quickly, don't stay here for a second."
My cousin's expression was so serious, which made us even more nervous, and we immediately came back from the cave.
This experience was simply too weird for us - we didn't encounter any monsters, but the fear in our hearts seemed stronger than ever before, because of the invisible and intangible danger.
That is the most terrifying danger.
During today's exploration, we encountered so many weird situations. First of all, the things we lost yesterday mysteriously disappeared. We also found that there was such a weird gravitational field above the crack. What shocked us the most was,
There is no animal on the opposite side of the crack. Perhaps for animals, it is really a "death zone", which is the most terrifying thing.
Regarding these situations, except for my cousin, none of us had any clue. It seemed that we could only wait for my cousin to sort it out and explain it to us slowly.
Fortunately, this crack was not far from Mr. Chen's house, so we quickly returned to Mr. Chen's house. When we actually sat in the house and drank hot tea, everyone's nervousness slowly relaxed.
Chapter completed!
