Chapter 173 12. Thirty thousand meters of iron ropes to seal the mountain

Hearing Zhang Ergou's truthful words, Zheng Yun smiled at the corner of his mouth, and waved to Zhang Ergou lightly, as if he agreed to his request, and asked them to take out blood pills for treatment.

He is by no means a pedantic and rigid person. In this situation, he does not expect the blood pill to cure the disease and take effect immediately. As long as it can save a few people, then it should be used.

There are nearly two thousand blood pills in the library.

Instead of eating ashes in the warehouse, it would be better to let the guilty people like them eat it. After their injuries are healed, they can continue to explore the road.

As long as the blood pills are enough, these sinners will also have a half-immortal body, and they will be able to explore the way for the Immortal Supervisor for decades...

"Thank you, Master Xian."

Zhang Ergou immediately stretched out his remaining hand, took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket, and poured out three blood pills from it.

Earlier, when Zheng Yun asked them to prepare to go outside the Tiangong area to restart the stolen blood of the Thousand Immortals Dojo in the warehouse, Zhang Ergou brought two bottles of blood pills for emergencies.

This thing is not only available to them.

If Zheng Yun or Ji Dao were seriously injured and on the verge of death, they could use the blood pill to restore their lives first, and then try to resolve the side effects.

"Is the blood elixir so effective?"

Zheng Yun saw that although Zhang Ergou's face was pale, his expression was calm. Even with his broken arm, he could not see much sadness. He could even laugh just now, so he asked doubtfully.

Zhang Ergou seems to have full confidence in the blood pill, as if as long as he has the blood pill, he will be fine, but is it really possible?
"Immortal Lord, although the preparation method of this blood pill is harmful to nature, but the medicinal effect is extremely amazing. As long as my broken arm is fixed and then applied internally and externally with the blood pill, it can be cured within a month at most."

"The two of us only need to use one each, and the remaining one can be divided into multiples for those with minor injuries."

As Zhang Ergou explained, he divided the blood pills in his hands among everyone, and everyone who was injured got some.

Zheng Yun did not let Ghost General and Cadest use blood pills. The side effects of these pills were too strong. It may be that it stimulates the immune response and improves the body's self-healing ability through some kind of blood-borne disease.

They are minor injuries, so there is no need to use this kind of thing.

Waiting on the spot for a while, Zhang Ergou, the little Taoist priest and others used the blood pill very skillfully, crushing one part to smear the wound, and swallowing the other part.

Kaidester also opened the medicine box, took out the disinfectant water to help Zhang Ergou clean the wound, and fixed it with bandages and gauze.

Not long after, the 11 people went on the road again. The five ghost generals stood in the outer circle, protecting all the wounded in the center, and Zheng Yun followed at the end of the team with a jade lantern.

Han Xian is right behind him.

Followed like a fairy belt.

The last section of the road is still full of dangers, there are countless monsters in the dark mountains and forests, and the white light released by the jade lanterns dispels the surrounding darkness, but at the same time it is also a living target.

Not long after.

There were rustling noises all around again, and the five ghosts all raised their knives, ready to strike.

This scene reminds me of the time when I was in the Qianzhou Strait, the sea was covered with fog, and the surroundings were as dark as ink, but the two ghost generals were enough to kill all the sea monsters in all directions.

Feel safe.

The ghost general is still powerful.

But at this moment, it is different from Qianzhou Strait. This is a heavenly palace, and the monsters around are definitely not at the level of sea monsters, but things that even Ji Dao, who clamored to punch the sea monster, is afraid of.

"Stop."

Zheng Yun stopped everyone again.

As soon as he finished speaking, he blew out the jade lantern, the soft light disappeared in an instant, and night once again shrouded the mountain forest.

After a few breaths.

Behind them, the immortals dispersed again, and each of them rushed into the forest to prey on monsters and beasts, killing the living creatures around them before eating them.

Everyone waited in silence.

Zheng Yun looked around and saw that there were more and more monsters nearby. Although Hanxian was powerful, the number was still too small. If it were delayed, Hanxian might not be able to stop them all.

They also need to be more vigilant.

Share at least half of the monster attack.

If all the cold immortals that are at least ten meters high are invited out of the Immortal Sacrifice Cave, then there is no need to worry, even the dragon in the lake can quickly swallow them alive.

But the cost of feeding is also frighteningly high. It is really unaffordable to raise [-] catties of meat a day, and Tiangong does not have such meat.

Looking up, you can vaguely see through the shade of the trees that the steep rock wall rising from the ground is right in front, like a high wall, blocking the Tiangong and Xianhai Lake.

Climb this mountain.

It seems to be in the Tiangong domain.

After everyone waited for a few minutes until the monsters could no longer be heard in their ears, Zheng Yun lit the jade lantern again:

"Go ahead."

The team immediately moved forward.

Zheng Yun looked back behind him, fearing that he would lose Han Xian, but at this glance he saw wisps of fairy light floating through the gaps between the vegetation in all directions of the forest.

Some of the Han Immortals had already ran a long distance, chasing some prey, and they couldn't see clearly with the naked eye, but they returned immediately after the lantern was lit.

Immortal lights from all directions emerged one after another.

Gathering towards Zheng Yun rapidly.

Zheng Yun is holding a jade lantern, just like the legendary fairy holding a magic weapon, commanding the cold fairy like his arm.

It's worthy of being with the word fairy.

The special effects are full.

After this time, everyone didn't stop, they accelerated towards the high mountain, and ran to the foot of the mountain in one breath.

The soil under the feet gradually turned into boulders of different sizes, the vegetation became sparser and sparser, and the bright white moonlight cast from the shade of the trees, clearly illuminating the surrounding environment and thin obstacles.

With the help of this moonlight.

Everyone walked out of the forest completely.

There is no longer anything blocking the view, but the boulders on the ground are getting bigger and bigger, some of them are even taller than buildings, and they probably all fell from the top of the mountain.

They walked left and right among the boulders, and the soft light emitted by the jade lanterns turned into a small circle of light, which appeared very small and fragile in front of the boundless mountains on the left and right.

"Two more steps."

Zheng Yun raised his head and cast a glance. This mountain is at least a thousand meters high, and it is almost [-] degrees vertical. There are many cracks on the mountain, and any debris that falls can kill people.

The others immediately sped up.

They each supported each other and ran forward.

They are no more than a hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain. As long as they stand at the foot of the mountain, they can temporarily escape from danger and obtain shelter.

"Ji Dao, can you still hear the voice? We have already reached the foot of the mountain." Zheng Yun picked up the walkie-talkie and asked.

rustling.

The intercom has no sound.

Until they crossed this boulder road and ran completely down the mountain, Ji Dao didn't give an answer.

"The mountain is too steep."

Zhang Ergou looked up, subconsciously moved two steps to the side, and got into the corner of a boulder. Even if something fell from the sky, he could squat under the stone to avoid it.

"We only brought two sets of climbing gear."

Kedust also had a puzzled expression on his face, how can he climb such a high mountain?It would be okay if they were the only ones, but there are several wounded here, so they can't go up at all.

"Look at it."

Zheng Yun held the walkie-talkie to his ear all the time, listening to Ji Dao's voice all the time, and at the same time handed the jade lantern to the little Taoist priest beside him, and then took out the binoculars to look at it.

This giant stone stall is extremely long, silvery white under the moonlight, and there are obstacles shrouded in it, like an ancient maze of stones, and you can't see how far it is with a telescope.

You can go back the way you came.

Ten kilometers should be able to return to Tiangong.

But this road may not be safe. There are monsters in the mountains and forests, and this boulder beach has its own situation. Besides, this road is close to the mountains, and the cracks in the mountains are also suitable for living creatures. Rare and weird monsters are indispensable. .

"There should be a way."

"Otherwise, we can only fly up."

While the little Taoist priest spoke in a low voice, he glanced at Zheng Yun eagerly, wondering what he was expecting.

"You guys rest first."

Zheng Yun put down the binoculars and looked up.

This high mountain actually has several 'stairs'. In front of them is a steep rock wall about five or six meters high, but above this step, there seems to be a platform.

They don't need to go up, as long as they walk towards the forest, they can see the things on the platform. They didn't bother to take a closer look just now. Now that the environment is safe, they can go back and have a look.

"Master Xian, be careful."

Zhang Ergou opened his mouth quickly.

Zheng Yun waved his hand to tell them to wait, and brought a ghost general with him, and ran quickly towards the forest.

He ran tens of meters in one breath.

Zheng Yun turned around and picked up the binoculars to take a closer look, but saw that the 'platform' was about three meters wide, and on the rock wall at the dead end, there were actually a long string of thick iron cables nailed to it, like the iron cable guardrails by the lake, hanging on the rock wall one by one. the wall.

It's actually an iron rope again.

This iron chain spreads along the mountain to the left and right, and it is exactly the same as the iron chains in the Underworld Pavilion, the Pregnant Demon Pagoda, and the Immortal Sacrifice Cave.

Triton really likes the iron rope.

This stuff shows up everywhere.

But every time these "indestructible" iron chains appear, they usually seal something, and this time the iron chain may be the same, but what can be sealed in the mountains?
If the platform is man-made.

Iron chains seal strange things.

Why did Ji Dao let himself go up the mountain?

But if the iron chain is not a sealed evil, then what is the significance of nailing the iron chain into the mountain?Is it really a handrail?The platform is three meters wide, but the handrails are on the wall?
What secrets lie outside the Tiangong domain?
Just now, the tota giant ao in Xianhai Lake clearly pointed the clue to Xianhai Lake, but at this moment, there is a big problem with this giant mountain, which is really unimaginable.

"Ji Dao, can you hear the sound?"

Zheng Yun turned around and looked in the direction of Xianhai Lake and asked.

rustling.

A faint voice came from the intercom.

But there was still no response. Ji Dao didn't know what was going on, and since just now, he hasn't spoken again...

Zheng Yun was full of doubts, frowning and returned to the team. Han Xian floated up and down on the edge of the jade lantern's light circle, and the rest of them sat or squatted, taking a rest at the corner of the boulder beach.

"My God, what do you say?"

Zhang Ergou asked immediately when he saw Zheng Yun coming back.

"I'll go take a look."

Zheng Yun looked past them towards the platform. Although he had just stepped back and looked, there were still some blind spots on the platform where he couldn't see clearly. He didn't know what was under those iron ropes.

Kedster immediately started to take out a set of rock climbing tools from his backpack, wanting to give full play to his advantages as an explorer.

"No, this height is useless."

Zheng Yun waved his hand to stop him, just took the rope in his hand, handed it to the ghost general beside him, then glanced at the ghost general lightly, and the two ghost generals rushed out holding the rope.

The ghost general didn't need a run-up at all, he walked forward a few steps to the bottom of the wall, jumped up like a ghost, first jumped onto the boulder next to him, and then jumped onto the platform by tapping left and right twice.

next moment.

They dropped the rope.

Zheng Yun also went to the bottom of the wall, holding the rifle with one hand, and the other hand grasping the rope. The ghost general above grabbed the rope and pulled it up, lightly bringing Zheng Yun up.

It's like 'taking the elevator'.

Zheng Yun moved vertically and was pulled onto the platform.

As soon as he stood still, he immediately looked at the root of the wall three meters away. The thick and long iron cable was nailed at a height of 1.5 meters from the ground, and there was a piece of iron pillar as a transit every three to five meters.

This iron rope is thicker than a human's thigh. In terms of thickness alone, it may have surpassed the Hades Pavilion and the Pregnant Demon Tower...

But there was nothing behind the chain.

It's just an ordinary alpine rock wall.

After studying it carefully for a moment, Zheng Yun still couldn't figure it out. He still felt that it was like a railing by the lake in the park, or even some kind of ornamental thing, but he couldn't think of a use for it.

What will grow from this rock wall?Or creep deformation?If not, then what is this loose and naturally drooping iron cable sealing?
"Master Immortal, what's on top?"

Zhang Ergou stood on tiptoe on the rock and asked. The little Taoist priest Kadster was also very curious and looked at Zheng Yun helplessly.

"Nothing at all."

Zheng Yun turned on the flashlight and looked to the left and right. The iron chain stretched all the way to the end of his sight, and there were large and small gaps and caves on the wall. There was one a hundred meters away from their left.

The iron chain broke in front of the cave.

As if the cave was an 'entrance'.

The cave is gloomy and gloomy, and the moonlight cannot penetrate it.

This scene made people even more troubled. The cave was pitch black and there was no light, and no one knew what was inside. In addition to this extremely weird iron chain, it was really confusing and clueless.

Everything the ancients did.

Absolutely nothing is made for nothing, even an ordinary nail on the wall plays a key role.

Zheng Yun is deeply aware of this truth. Several previous expeditions have proved this point. There is a reason for even the most inconspicuous things, not to mention this endless length of iron chain.

But knowing is knowing.

Now there are no other clues at all, and he can't see what the purpose of such a thick and long iron chain is.

Although I can't see it clearly, I can roughly estimate that the length of the iron cable is several kilometers. If the relatively loose and drooping state is counted, the length of the iron cable will have to be added.

Even in Daming, iron is not so much that there is no place for it to be used. Such a large amount of iron must be very important.

"..."

Zheng Yun fell into deep thought for a long time, looking around at the details and even looking up, remaining silent.

There is also a platform above this section of the platform.

There is a section every five or six meters high, and they should all be the same three meters wide. In total, there are four or five sections.

This step was obviously built by humans, but it was not for humans to walk on. I am afraid that only 'giants' can walk up it.

It is somewhat similar to the city wall, but the fifth step up is a steep rock wall, with no traces of people or buildings.

Zheng Yun asked the ghost general to continue to climb up, and then took himself up to the second step again, and immediately looked at the corner, but saw that the front was still the same long iron chain...

"..."

Zheng Yun frowned deeply.

What the hell is this place?
So many chains were blocked layer by layer, up and down five or six circles, with a height of 30 meters and a length of at least several kilometers, almost sealing off the entire foot of the mountain!
One kilometer is 1000 meters.

A floor of five kilometers is 5000 meters.

It may take [-] meters of iron chains to seal the fifth floor!

How much iron does this take?Adding up the Immortal Sacrifice Tower of the Pregnant Demon Tower and the Immortal Sacrifice Cave in the Underworld Pavilion, I am afraid that there is not as much iron as this place!

Another spectacle.

Unbelievable spectacle.

With such a huge momentum, could it only seal caves and cracks?What kind of horror is there in this mountain?
Be puzzled.

Just turn around and look behind you.

At this moment, he was more than ten meters above the lake. The mountains and forests blocked his view. If he wanted to see Xianhai Lake, he had to climb up.

Then go up and have a look.

Zheng Yun repeated the previous practice.

In one breath, the ghost general pulled him to the fifth platform on the top floor, which was more than 30 meters high. The entire mountain forest was at his feet, and the night view of Xianhai Lake was unobstructed.

The moon is in the sky.

Misty.

The Xianhai Lake turned into a green crescent moon, and the giant beasts in the lake were still fighting in the water, and the sparkling light spread layer by layer.

This look.

Zheng Yun finally understood.

It turned out that the iron chain was used for this purpose, but it was very simple. It was because I thought too much and thought too far.

No wonder Ji Dao let himself go up the mountain.

It is indeed safe on this side of the mountain.

But even for this purpose, it is a bit exaggerated to actually use tens of thousands of meters of iron cables...

　Crying to death, the name of the previous chapter was wrong, but I don’t have the authority to change the name of the chapter and the previous typos, so I can only watch the mistakes...

　　Also, it’s really not a break from the chapter. This chapter is too late to explain. I wonder if you can guess what the iron rope is used to seal the mountain?
