Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 838 Tiankeng (4000)

But now Wu Liang couldn't teach them to disperse immediately.

Any wind and grass will definitely lead to the rolling mine, and if you are not careful, it will immediately lead the rolling mine to your side, and then everyone in the army will die faster.

Fortunately, as far as Wu Liang knows, rolling mines also have the characteristics of lightning. They can be guided by a human body that can conduct electricity, and can also be guided by metallic or magnetic objects with lower resistance, and the latter is more attractive to rolling mines. Big... so it's not entirely impossible to crack.

Seeing that the rolling mines were slowly floating towards the people in the Huan army.

"Don't act rashly, everyone squats down slowly!"

Wu Liang first shouted to everyone.

At this moment, they are in a very empty place, and there is no low-lying place to hide. In this case, the best way is to squat or lie down, so that the height of the body is lowered, and it can be avoided to a certain extent. Be the target of rolling mines.

At the same time, he looked back at Dian Wei behind him, and said in a low voice, "Brother Dian Wei, your halberd is made of pure iron. I want you to throw a halberd at the light ball, and you don't have to hit it precisely. , just pass by it, but you have to throw it like a javelin, so that the hand halberd can land as soon as possible after passing by the light ball, and stand up and insert it into the ground. Are you sure about this?"

"What's so difficult about this?"

Dian Wei immediately took an opponent's halberd from behind, weighed it in his hand, and said without any pressure.

This hand halberd is light at one end and heavy at the other end, and the head of the halberd is made into a spear head shape so that it can be used for both chopping and thrusting. In addition, the place near the creek is not a hard rock, as long as you control the strength when throwing it , making it easy to insert into the ground after landing.

What's more, it was recorded in the history books that Dian Wei was highly skilled in martial arts. The javelin was one of the weapons commonly used in the army before, and he could get started directly without any practice.

"Then leave it to you."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, and took the initiative to step aside to give Dian Wei room to display.

"Hey!"

As soon as the words were finished, Dian Wei swung his arm, and a halberd came out of his hand.

The flight trajectory of the hand halberd was perfect, and it reached the highest point soon, and then the halberd began to fall quickly with its head down, so as to ensure that the hand halberd was inserted into the ground at the moment it passed the rolling mine.

"Have it!"

Wu Liang gave a soft drink.

next moment.

"Shh!"

The hand halberd almost skimmed the light ball and fell, and then made a "chuckle" until it penetrated into the ground not far away.

Different from ordinary weapons, Dianwei's halberd was made by Wu Liang using real materials. In order to match Dianwei's strange power, every inch of the material is very solid, so it is inserted into the ground in this way, and the rear handle can't even be shaken. Never shake it.

at the same time.

"hiss--!"

The rolling mine became violent in an instant, and even drew a clear electric arc between it and the hand halberd.

And with the hand halberd inserted into the ground.

"Fuck-!"

I saw that the brightness of the rolling mine suddenly increased a lot, shaking so that everyone couldn't look directly at it, and at the same time, its volume suddenly expanded several times, as if a wild beast with its bloody mouth opened madly rushed towards the hand halberd.

"Cover your ears!"

Wu Liang shouted immediately.

However, it was too late for everyone to cover their ears.

There was only a loud bang, and the sun-like glare of the rolling mines had completely engulfed the hand halberd. At the same time as it was deafening, a wave of heat rushed towards the people in the Huan army more than ten meters away.

Not just them.

Even Wu Liang, who was farther away, clearly felt the oncoming heat wave, but this heat wave was completely within the range that the human body could bear, even if the people in the Huan army were a little closer, they probably wouldn't treat them cause direct damage.

……

After a moment.

Everything had returned to calm, but the people in the Tuan Army still squatted obediently on the ground, but kept looking towards Wu Liang while their eyes glanced at the hand halberd standing on the ground.

They didn't know if the danger was over, so they could only wait for Wu Liang's order.

At this moment, a single white mist is rising from the hand halberd and the surrounding land. It is not only the scorched marks, but also the water vapor that is rapidly generated due to high temperature. After all, this place is closer to the creek, and the water contained in the land is slightly more Some.

Besides.

That small area, including Dianwei's hand halberd, was already covered with a layer of scorched black, which showed the high temperature released when the rolling mine exploded just now.

"Okay, everyone can get up."

Wu Liang observed for a while, and finally gave everyone an affirmative answer.

"call--"

Everyone in the Huan army breathed a sigh of relief, and after getting up, Zhuge Liang immediately leaned over and asked curiously: "Brother Youcai, what was that thing just now, it seems that it is only stronger than your Thunderbolt!" Difference?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be called a rolling mine."

Although the Celestial Dynasty has long said that there is a rolling mine, but Wu Liang is not sure if there is any relevant record in the Eastern Han Dynasty, so he said in detail, "However, unlike the thunder that I made, the rolling mine is made naturally. The essence of the foreign object is actually the thunder we often see in thunderstorms."

"That thing is thunder?"

Hearing Wu Liang's explanation, Yu Ji immediately wrinkled his old face, and muttered, "Isn't that a catastrophe from the heavens? It seems that this place is really not simple, and there must be some kind of heaven-defying law hidden!"

"This……"

The angle of Yu Ji's words was so tricky that Wu Liang didn't know how to respond.

But it was reasonable for him to have this reaction.

After all, from the moment Taoism appeared in the Celestial Dynasty, it has always respected thunder, and believed that thunder is the most direct means for heaven and earth to bring down punishment from heaven.

In fact, such oaths as "Heaven strikes five thunders and booms" also come from this. Only the East Asian region deeply influenced by the Taoist culture of the Celestial Dynasty in the world will be so awed by the "Tianlei" and directly link it with the way of heaven. Together.

And Wu Liang has experienced so many things before, and he can feel that there is a power similar to the way of heaven in the world that manipulates many things in the world, but this power is invisible and intangible, and almost no one can really touch it, so Always in a mysterious and mysterious ideology.

Besides.

As far as Wu Liang knows, there are indeed records of "Heavenly Tribulation" in some ancient books.

In Taoism, if a person who cultivates the Tao wants to attain the Tao and become an immortal, he must encounter a "heavenly calamity". Those who have survived the "heavenly calamity" will become immortals, while those who have not survived the "heavenly calamity" will be wiped out.

As the saying goes, "Follow is ordinary, and rebellion is immortal, only upside down in it."

Although Taoists often talk about "obtaining the Tao" and "the fruit of the Tao", the essence of Taoism is to break free from the restrictions of the "Tao", so the process of cultivating the Tao is completely against the sky, and the "sky "Kalpa" is the way of heaven to maintain the laws of heaven and earth and eliminate the powerful life forms that destroy the inherent balance between heaven and earth. Therefore, "immortal" and "Tao" are actually two opposites that are completely opposed to each other, and the two are not the same.

In this way, it is not unreasonable for Yu Ji to think that there is a law against the sky hidden in this place.

However, it is still too early to draw conclusions.

"This matter will be discussed after investigation."

Wu Liang nodded noncommittally, and then said to Yang Wanli, "Yang Wanli, you can lead someone to cut some thin logs nearby, soak these thin logs in water, and then use ropes to connect these thin logs. Get up and make six [-]-foot-high flagpoles, tie an engineer shovel to the top of the flagpoles, and erect them in all directions of our camp... You go first, I will draw points near the camp later, after you make the flagpoles, follow my drawing It’s a good point to fix the flagpole.”

"promise!"

Although Yang Wanli didn't understand what Wu Liang meant by this move, he still hurriedly brought some soldiers from the Huren Army to follow suit.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Wu Liang had no choice but to explain patiently: "The things I taught Yang Wanli to make are called lightning rods. The principle is the same as the hand halberds I taught Dianwei to throw. As long as these lightning rods are higher than our camp, If there is a rolling mine again, it will be led into the ground by a lightning rod just like before, and the rolling mine will naturally not be able to hurt us."

"Is it still possible?"

Yu Ji was taken aback, but still asked with a tricky angle, "If that's the case, if one day we achieve a good result and encounter thunder disasters, can we also use the young master's lightning rod to divert the sky thunder away?"

"If one day I achieve the true fruit of cultivation and can survive the thunder calamity and become a fairy, I will definitely tell you."

Wu Liang shrugged and smiled helplessly.

In just one hour, they encountered two rolling mines.

Wu Liang has almost determined that this place is full of short trees. With such a dense rolling mine attack, taller trees will be easier to be targets. Moreover, every time they are struck by lightning, they will catch fire, and the surrounding trees will also follow suit. suffer together.

Under such circumstances.

Even if this place exists for another [-] million years, it is absolutely impossible for a towering tree to grow.

As for those bones.

Wu Liang felt that it might also have something to do with rolling land mines. People in this era don't have a clear understanding of thunder and lightning, so there is no so-called lightning protection means. If you accidentally encounter it, you can't run around. Causes air movement, making it a target for rolling mines.

The Rolling Landmine can be static or movable, and it's okay when it's still. Once it moves, it can even reach a speed of 2 kilometers per hour. This speed has already surpassed the speed of sound, and absolutely no one can escape from it.

Human beings with wisdom can't deal with it, and those animals are even more difficult to escape.

As for the strange man mentioned by Big Dog, and the eyeballs that are closely related to this secret realm... Wu Liang has never encountered the real thing so far, so he really doesn't know how to explain it.

After another hour, Yang Wanli finally erected six flagpoles according to Wu Liang's wishes.

After careful inspection, Wu Liang finally felt relieved. At least from now on, the Huren army had a relatively safe habitat here, otherwise it would be difficult to sleep peacefully.

However, Wu Liang still didn't teach the people in the Huan army to separate their actions, but stayed together until the tents were fully set up before deciding to bring everyone to visit this "fairy mountain".

After all, besides the rolling mines, there are very likely other unknown threats in this place.

If everyone stays together and works together, it may be possible to deal with sudden dangers. If some soldiers of the Tuan army are left here to camp independently, it will be difficult to take care of each other. Maybe when they come back, they will only see There were corpses all over the floor, and this was the last thing Wu Liang wanted to see.

……

Bringing all the equipment, all the people of the Tuan Army assembled again and embarked on the road of patrolling the mountain.

Along the way, Wu Liang still did not forget to explore the rock structure of this "fairy mountain". What is certain is that the rocks here are the same as the outside, and they are also basalts that may have strong magnetism.

But the difference is that the mountains here have suffered more or less damage to a certain extent.

Moreover, all these traces of destruction are not man-made without exception, and it is very likely that they were also caused by the attack of rolling mines.

Other than that, the trip still yielded nothing.

But when everyone reached the back mountain, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.

The scene here is completely different from the "fairy mountain" in the outside world. In front of them is a huge funnel-shaped tiankeng with a radius of one mile. It looks like a huge meteorite from outer space landed here. Even a third of this fairy mountain seems to have been dug away and became part of this huge sinkhole.

Look around.

The center of the tiankeng has the lowest terrain and should be at least 200 meters deep by visual inspection.

However, such a depth is not too deep for this tiankeng with a radius of one mile, so the slope at the edge is not too steep, about 30 degrees, and the surface of the slope is not smooth. Circles of spiral gullies are distributed, making the entire tiankeng look like a circular stadium, which naturally greatly reduces the difficulty for Wu Liang and others to reach the center of the tiankeng.

As for the center of the sinkhole?
Standing at the position of Wu Liang and the others, one could only vaguely see something dark there, but unfortunately the inner wall and ground of the tiankeng were also completely black, as if they were completely scorched from the inside out. , the integration of the two is really impossible to make an accurate judgment.

And just as Wu Liang was considering whether to go down to check immediately.

"Young master, look over there."

Dian Wei suddenly pointed to the opposite side of the tiankeng and said to Wu Liang.

"?"

Dian Wei can't speak easily, and at this moment he took the initiative to remind him that he must have seen something extraordinary, so Wu Liang naturally looked around quickly.

I saw that there seemed to be a small house built on the rocks between the boulders on the opposite side of the tiankeng. Standing in their position, they could barely see a corner of the small house.

But even in this corner, the stones used and the method of stacking are quite regular.

This is the only thing in this fairy mountain that may be related to man-made besides the three gate towers, and this is naturally the thing that archaeologists are most interested in. How could Wu Liang let it go so easily?

"Come with me."

Wu Liang immediately gave up the idea of ​​entering the tiankeng to check immediately, and decided to check the stone house first.
