The scene along the way is more and more surprising, purple crystal row after row, different shapes, after the light, as if into a colorful maze.
The girls continued to praise, as if they had forgotten what to do. I had to remind them to keep up with the team and not to fall behind.
But what surprised me most was that there was a road opened up by a man in the middle of such a strange crystal forest, and I don’t think it was made by Zhang Fan. He didn’t have such great ability alone.
I went up to ask Zhang Fan: "excuse me, brother Zhang, this road seems to be man-made, do you know who made it?"
Zhang Fan shook his head: "I found this road when I first came here. Maybe it was done by predecessors, but such a large project can’t be done without thousands of people."
Long Zheng said: "when brother Zhang talked to me about this place, he didn’t say that there were so many crystals here. He only said that the scenery was strange. But now that I saw it with my own eyes, I can’t summarize the situation here completely."
I nodded: "yes, it can be described as a miracle. I wonder, if this is the place where practitioners gather, why do they choose this place?"
Zhang Fan said: "crystal originally contains infinite spiritual power. Among them, amethyst is the best place for practitioners to practice here, of course."
I was quite surprised because it was the first time I heard of this theory. It seems that there are many things in the world that I don’t understand.
However, Pian Pian is extremely excited at the moment. Her figure is constantly shuttling through the crystal. After each time, she looks like a very enjoyable one, shouting and crying in her mouth. She is very happy.
I was dissatisfied with her and said, "you will scare everyone like this. Why are you so excited?"
Pian Pian said: "the aura contained here is really very helpful to me. If conditions permit, I really hope to stay here forever. This place is just heaven for those who practice."
Seeing Pian Pian’s reaction, I finally believe that Zhang Fan’s statement is true. It seems that after a long search, he really found the hiding place of Longhu Mountain practitioners. His efforts over the years have not been in vain.
Shangguan Feng said at this time, "please don’t be so excited. As the saying goes, when things are extremely extreme, there must be some extremely dangerous monster protecting here. It’s not my alarmist talk. The aura is so full that it can not only attract people, but also attract demons and ghosts." She explained to Pian Pian, "I’m sorry, but I don’t mean sister pianpianpian specifically. Please don’t get me wrong."
Pian Pian said with a smile: "I don’t think you are deliberately alluding to me. You are right. People who can come to this place with such aura are not ordinary people. We should be extra careful."
I asked Zhang Fan, "did brother Zhang encounter any mysterious events when he came here last time?"
Zhang Fan shook his head: "I’m sorry, when I came last time, maybe I was lucky. It’s really safe. It’s easy to find the treasure, but those things are useless to me, and I can’t take those treasures out by myself, so our cooperation this time is a journey of mutual benefit."
I thought to myself, "you boy has so much money, of course you would say so."
After walking for more than an hour, everyone was tired. I asked the team to stop and ask them to have a rest.
Gong Rui said impatiently, "how long will I go? How do I think this place has no end at all? And it seems that the deeper we go, the deeper it will be. Are we going to go to the center of the earth
Shangguanfeng explained: "crystal is originally the thing in the earth’s core, especially this kind of amethyst, should be buried deep underground, so I am surprised to meet them at such a shallow degree."
Black Lily wiped his sweat and said: "no matter what, it has already come to this point, and it is absolutely impossible to retreat. Now let’s go on with our teeth in our teeth. If we can achieve our goal, it doesn’t matter to eat some bitterness."
Bai Jing agreed: "yes, it seems that Mr. Zhang is quite reliable. Although he has not reached the destination, it seems that he is not lying to us."
Liao Xiaowei said: "but I always feel that there is a kind of ominous premonition. The more you go down here, the more you can’t see the end. Moreover, I seem to hear a terrible voice coming from below. Is it the voice of hell?"
I laughed: "no, in fact, even if there is a hell, it’s just like heaven. It’s just a kind of space. It’s not really under the ground. So even if you hear some voices, those sounds are definitely not from hell."
Liao Xiaowei blushed. "If that’s the case, what sound am i hearing?"
Pian Pian came up and said, "according to the principle, we can’t hear the voice that you can hear. There are several practitioners here and I, the demon, have better ear power than you, but we don’t hear anything."
Liao Xiaowei was a little embarrassed, "I really didn’t lie, I did hear a lot of people crying, very real, absolutely did not cheat you."I looked at Liao Xiaowei and said: "I believe that Weiwei’s words, she will never deliberately cheat people, if she said that she heard the voice, it must be heard."
Hearing this, pianpianpian, shangguanfeng and yueyingying immediately listened, but after a while, they all shook their heads: "sorry, we really didn’t hear anything."
However, Zhang Fan’s face turned pale: "Miss Liao, would you describe those voices first?"
Liao Xiaowei said: "in fact, there is nothing to describe. It is a group of people crying bitterly, among which there are many children’s voices."
Zhang Fan’s face was even worse. "To tell you the truth, I’ve heard these voices. The last time I came here, I heard those voices!"
I was surprised and said, "why didn’t you say so much earlier?"
Zhang Fan said with a bitter face: "if I tell you this, you don’t dare to come, my bonus is not in vain?"
Black Lily was angry and funny and said: "you can be really confused. If you hide, let everyone encounter a trap, or even hurt their lives, you also can’t get money."
Zhang Fan had no choice but to apologize. "I’m really sorry. It’s my obsession with money, but it’s just a bunch of people crying. There’s no real harm, it’s just that we’re scared."
Liao Xiaowei said: "they are not only crying, but also seem to be saying something, but I can’t understand their language."
I quickly came to Liao Xiaowei and asked carefully, "can you hear what they are saying?"
Liao Xiaowei gave me a blank look, "I told you, I can’t understand their language."
I said with a wry smile, "I mean, even if you don’t understand their language, can you repeat them?"
Liao Xiaowei hears the words, so she has to listen to her ears for a while, and then slowly says a series of strange words. All the people present are confused.
I looked at everyone and said, "who of you can understand this?"
They all looked at each other, but they didn’t understand.
All of a sudden, Yue Yingying said, "I seem to know some of them. These words seem to be ancient Chinese, because the ancient language has developed for thousands of years. Now, if you go back to listen to the previous language, you can’t understand it at all."
I quickly asked, "well, do you know what era these ancient sayings are?"
Yue Yingying thought carefully and suddenly said, "I remember, these languages should be the languages of the Shang Dynasty."
This word a, everybody is surprised, Shangguan Feng asks: "but how do you know?"
Yue Yingying said: "my master taught me some ancient secret mantras. In order to prevent the leakage of secrets, he used the ancient sayings of the Shang Dynasty. By the way, you may all think that the characters of the Shang Dynasty were found on oracle bone inscriptions. In fact, it was not. After the Tomb of Fuhao of the Shang Dynasty was discovered, archaeologists found a stone tablet inside the tomb, which not only engraved the characters of the Shang Dynasty, but also marked it Because of the syllables, the language of the Shang Dynasty can not only be interpreted, but also its original pronunciation can be restored. However, this matter has been blocked by the authorities and only a few people know it. "
I wonder, "this should be a good thing. Why block the news?"
Yue Yingying’s expression seemed a little mysterious. She replied: "that’s because these languages are not only for communication, but also for the function of incantations. Please note that I’m not talking about some languages, but the language of the whole Shang Dynasty. Pronunciation is related to incantations. If you can’t accurately grasp the pronunciation, you may say a common word, which may trigger the incantation What a disaster
As soon as I said this, I was more interested. "If that’s the case, it’s no wonder that there are so few ancient people. If you say a wrong sentence, you may be killed. It’s terrible!"
Yue Yingying continued: "because of this, in the Shang Dynasty, the status of witches was very important. They had the power to explain the incantation and to decide the language. What to say and what not to say were all up to them. Even the king of Shang could not interfere. It is for this reason that the stone tablet language found in Fuhao tomb can never be spread out. Once the secret is disclosed, it will cause great disaster. "
I opened my mouth wide. In this way, the status of witches in the Shang Dynasty was comparable to that of kings?
Yue Yingying nodded: "no mistake. What sister Liao heard just now is probably the language of the Shang Dynasty, and it is very likely a wizard’s incantation. I have heard the meaning of the incantation."
Liao Xiaowei said, "well, what kind of incantation are the words I just said?"
Yue Yingying embarrassed way: "this I do not know, because I only know a few words, and can not fully grasp the language of that era."
I sighed: "that’s a pity. It would be very interesting to read these words right away. And what I want to know is, why only Zhang Fan and Wei Wei can hear those voices? This makes us practitioners feel ashamed. "
Yue Yingying said: "it’s hard to say. It’s probably related to people’s physique. Not everyone can hear this ancient voice. It depends on fate. According to my judgment, these sounds are probably preserved in these crystals, and when the right opportunity arises, they will be heard by those who are destined to hear them. "In my heart, I didn’t expect that the ancient language thousands of years ago could still be handed down to this day.
Pianpian sighed: "be reasonable, I’m the oldest one here, but I can’t figure out this matter. In my opinion, it’s still over. We should continue to go on."
Shangguan Feng echoed: "yes, let this one go in advance. Anyway, I don’t know what’s going on. It’s not too late to talk about it later."
There was no better way to do it, so they got up and wanted to go down.
Bai Jing said, "did you forget one thing? We haven’t eaten for a long time. If we don’t have enough food, we can’t go far. "
Her words reminded everyone, so they sat down and took out their own dry food. Originally, black Lily planned to build a bonfire and bake something to eat, but Longzheng stopped him. His reason was simple: "this place is so mysterious. Let’s try not to make trouble. We don’t want to make a fire."
Black lily also felt reasonable, so he did not light the campfire.
After eating some food, everyone got strength, so they continued to walk inside. The crystal forest was boundless. After a long walk, there was no end. Even I was a little impatient. Did you think Zhang Fan was cheating you?
Seeing everyone’s impatience, Zhang Fan said, "if you hold on a little longer and walk a few miles, you will probably be able to get there. This is not a tour. It’s not easy to get treasure."
After listening to his words, the people could only move forward patiently and try not to lose their temper. Finally, they came to an open area with boundless darkness ahead.
I turned on the flashlight and took a look inside. I took a breath of air-conditioning. There was an abyss in front of me. I couldn’t see the bottom of it.
Long Zheng asked Zhang Fan: "how to get down? How did you get down there? "
However, Zhang Fan showed an incredible look, "I don’t know. When I came here, there was no abyss."
He said that, everyone’s heart is cold, because it may mean that all previous efforts are wasted!
The black Lily held back her anger and said, "what you said is true. Do you really don’t know the situation here?"
Zhang Fan said with a bitter face: "conscience of heaven and earth, if I have half a lie, let me exterminate heaven and earth!"
I was patient and asked, "brother Zhang, what was the situation when you came here before?"
Zhang Fan said: "when I came here, this is a vacant land. If I go a little further, a huge cave will appear, and the treasure is in it."
"But now it’s useless to say anything. The abyss is in front of us. We can’t get past it anyway."
Pianpian said: "there is nothing to worry about. I’ll fly over and have a look." Before I could speak, she flew by herself. She was so fast that she turned into a white shadow and went straight to the opposite side. But after only flying for more than ten seconds, she heard a bang. The white shadow suddenly stopped and seemed to have hit something.
The white shadow first fell for a while, then flew back to us.
"What’s going on?" I asked
Pianpian rubbed her head and said, "to be honest, everything was going well, but I suddenly bumped into an invisible force field, and the whole was rebounded back."
Weiwei said, "didn’t you try to break through it?"
Pianpian shook her head: "this force field is different from the artificial one. It’s very thick. Even if I force myself to squeeze in, I can only advance a few meters. It’s impossible to pass."
Everyone was stunned and speechless. Obviously, this was the first time that I saw Pian Pian’s sad face. Even though she had been injured before, she had a indifferent attitude, but this time I really saw despair on her face.
At this time, black Lily asked Zhang Fan, "do you have nothing to do? You brought us here, and you are responsible for us. "
Zhang Fan said with a bitter face, "don’t I want money? How can I joke with you with such a large sum of money, but it’s really the first time I’ve met it, and there’s nothing I can do about it. "
Long Zheng said: "don’t worry, everyone. There must be a way to get to the front of the mountain. We can’t come here for nothing."
Although he encouraged everyone so much, I could clearly see that he looked a little lonely, and obviously knew that this trip was in vain.
