Jin Yutong

Chapter 507 Entrance

"This is the place."

Chen Ran's heart skipped a beat. Just now, he was still disappointed in this trip, but he turned a corner, and the surprise was right in front of him. When he arrived at the place Yang Shijie said under the guidance of Yang Shijie After some observation, he was sure that this place was exactly what he was looking for.

Although there are only two bamboo shoots in this place, and one was dug out by Yang Shijie and boiled into soup, but he probed a bit and even released an energy aperture to check, and found out that there was definitely a bamboo forest in this place before. Because when he was investigating, he found that there were not only these two bamboo shoots growing, but there were some scattered in other places in this area, but most of them were just sprouting. If you don’t search carefully, you will find No, with this point, it can be confirmed that there is indeed a bamboo forest here.

After confirming that there was a bamboo forest in this place before, then the next step will be easy. Chen Ran only needs to compare the records on the treasure map with the environment in front of him. In fact, if the two are compared, there is no problem at all. It is impossible to compare, because at present, apart from the discovery of a bamboo forest in this place, there is no other place that matches the topography drawn on the treasure map.

According to the records on the treasure map, if there is a bamboo forest in front of the stone wall in this direction, then the bamboo forest lake should be next to the bamboo forest, and the hillside is not high or low on the opposite side of the bamboo forest lake. The situation is next to this bamboo forest, but there is a moderately high mountain ridge full of weeds and an unknown type of tree. It is a stone slab covered with wild vines.

This is also the reason why Chen Ran passed by here just now but didn't notice this place. The situation in front of him is not at all similar to the place recorded on the treasure map. , that should also be a small valley, but now it is a mountain.

However, Chen Ran's knowledge of geography during this time was not for nothing. Although he mainly learned knowledge about jade wares from the old man, jade wares involved too much, and he had to learn a little about ancient characters. After all, the status of jade in ancient times is so high. I don’t know how to do ancient characters. This kind of knowledge is undoubtedly the old man’s old profession. Apart from the old profession of ancient characters, the old man also has another old profession, which is geology .

Regarding geology, Chen Ran didn't learn much from the old man, but he still knows a little about simple soil identification. However, Yang Shijie is obviously much more proficient than him in this area. The two of them walked around the mountain and the stone slab opposite After digging a few shovels, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the mountain had not been formed for a long time, especially when Chen Ran released an energy aperture to detect the inside of the mountain, and found that the soil structure inside the mountain was very chaotic, and there were some Gravel and boulders piled up in disorder.

After Yang Shijie checked the big stone slab opposite, he said that there were traces of being hit by a huge force.

With these clues, the answer will undoubtedly come out immediately. The biggest possibility is undoubtedly that a flash flood occurred decades ago, colliding and collapsing the hillside painted on the treasure map, and the so-called Zhulin Lake also followed. Then they disappeared, and then new mountains were formed, and the mountains were covered with weeds and trees.

I have to say that five or sixty years can really change a lot of things, especially in the previous era, not to mention the past, but Chen Ran’s own childhood impression that there was a flash flood or a mudslide on the mountain at that time. It's a normal thing.

After confirming that this place is the mysterious place recorded on the map, the next step is to find the entrance. The treasure map does not record where the entrance is, but according to the situation at that time, we can roughly guess the entrance. Approximate range.

The scene at that time was that the people in the black room were lying on the opposite hillside and looking at the opposite side. In front of the hillside was the Zhulin Lake. Naturally, the Japanese army could not be stationed on the Zhulin Lake, so it could only be on this side of the Zhulin Lake. .

And this side is the bamboo forest, and then there are cliffs.

Chen Ran estimated the size of Zhulin Lake, and found out that the shore here was not that big. He started from the other end of the stone wall, and released energy circles along the shore of Zhulin Lake. His energy Now if the aperture detects underground, the depth that can be detected can reach about seven or eight meters.

When Chen Ran was probing, Yang Shijie was not idle. At this time, although he didn't know what was going on, he also guessed that Chen Ran's purpose was probably to find the treasure, so when Chen Ran was probing, , he was also digging with a shovel, but he gave up after digging two shovels, because since there have been flash floods in this place, the geological soil must have changed, and it is meaningless to dig treasures with this method, unless It was dug very deep.

Chen Ran obviously noticed this when he was probing. Due to the experience of mountain torrents and the fact that the shore is leaning against a stone wall, the terrain of this place should be much higher now than it was decades ago. So when he probed, he had to go a little deeper.

Along the way, the bottom is full of rocks, and even if there are occasional gaps, they are just holes in the rocks. He searched more than half of the range he estimated and found nothing, but not long after, Chen Ran discovered a strange place.

This place is a place close to the stone wall, and the bottom is also filled with rocks. It is strange, but it is because when Chen Ran was probing, he found that the gaps in the rocks below were filled with wisps of thin mist, and the mist The color is still colorful.

When it was detected, Chen Ran was stunned, and then quickly controlled the energy aperture to go deeper. With the deepening of the energy aperture, the multicolored mist filled in the rock crevice became thicker. Of course, it was only relatively That being said, it's actually still pretty thin.

Colorful mist?

What kind of fog is this?Miasma?

Chen Ran was a little surprised, but then he thought of the sentence recorded in the letter left by the man in the black room.

God, hell, it's gone, they're gone, the whole army is gone, it's gone before our eyes, thousands of people suddenly disappeared, there's not a single person in the camp...

The general meaning of this sentence is that the place where the Japanese army was stationed was suddenly filled with a thick fog, which shrouded the army in the fog. After a while, at the top of the mountain After the mist disappeared, an astonishing miracle happened. The place where the Japanese army was stationed was empty except for the cannons. Thousands of people just disappeared mysteriously.

When Chen Ran saw this description, he still wondered if there really were monsters?Of course, conjectures are conjectures, but in fact he didn't take the fog seriously at that time, he just thought that it might be because of other situations that happened at that time, those people in the dark room didn't notice that they said it so mysteriously, but he didn't expect it to be so mysterious. It really made him encounter fog, and it was also a colorful fog. The fog described by the person in the black room was a thick gray fog, and he didn't know if it was just a colorful fog.

Colorful mist?It doesn't seem to be a miasma. Is it true that there are monsters who can't cultivate here?

Shaking his head and throwing this thought out of his mind, Chen Ran pondered for a while, then controlled the energy aperture to go deeper, but then he found that the colorful mist was coming out from the stone wall.

"Cave?"

When the energy aperture was detected, it was obvious that the stone wall filled with colorful mist was a bit asymmetrical with the surrounding stone walls, as if a hole was blocked by stones, sand, etc., which should be washed away by mountain torrents. That's right, Chen Ran controlled the energy aperture to detect the entrance of the cave, but it was still blocked after three or four meters, but this distance was already the detection limit of the energy aperture.

The current situation is obvious, the entrance should be this blocked stone cave, but what is going on with this colorful mist?

If it was gray mist, Chen Ran wouldn't feel anything, but it happened to be colorful mist, which inevitably made people feel uncomfortable.

"Brother Chen, let's eat first and then look for it."

After Yang Shijie dug a few shovels over there and gave up, he turned over at the base of the stone wall. After digging for a while, he saw Chen Ran standing there frowning, so he came over to greet Chen Ran.

"it is good……"

No matter what, this mysterious place with shocking secrets was finally found. Hearing Yang Shijie's greeting, Chen Ran, who came back to his senses, simply decided to eat first. Hungry but more hungry.

After making the decision, the two returned to the place where they ate just now to fill their stomachs first, and then returned to this place after filling their stomachs.

During the meal just now, Chen Ran made up his mind. Now that he has found it, he has to go in and find out what to say. Therefore, after coming here this time, he and Yang Shijie confessed, and the two dug in this place. stand up.

Yang Shijie didn't know much about this treasure hunt, so he didn't think too much about why Chen Ran chose this place to dig. Anyway, Chen Ran let him do whatever he wanted, which saved Chen Ran a lot of trouble. Some words to explain.

When Chen Ran's energy aperture probed the bottom, he could detect the wisps of multicolored mist, but he couldn't see it at all when he dug it open, and dissipated in the air as soon as he dug it open. When he inhaled his nose, he could only feel a little coolness a feeling of.

Yang Shijie didn't notice the multicolored mist, but he noticed the wisps of cold air when he breathed. From this, he reminded Chen Ran that they both put on gas masks.

"There's a hole here."

At the beginning, the two dug together. Later, it was inconvenient for two people to dig in the hole. Therefore, Yang Shijie stood in the hole to dig, and Chen Ran stood on top to say hello. After digging for more than two meters The hole was revealed.

"Come up."

Chen Ran lowered his head and saw that the blocked hole was 'exposed' a little, which made him feel refreshed, and quickly stretched out his hand to pull Yang Shijie out first.

After pulling Yang Shijie up, Chen Ran jumped to the dug out halfway up the mountain and stood there with two legs split, and then took the engineering shovel to clean up the sand and gravel blocking the entrance of the cave.

This process is obviously much more troublesome than digging a hole just now. Chen Ran and Yang Shijie replaced each other and worked for a full two hours.

As the obstacles that were blocked at the entrance of the cave were pulled out bit by bit, a semi-circular cave gradually appeared in front of the eyes, and the gaps in the cave were getting bigger and bigger, and a stale and dirty air breathed out. After rushing out, both Chen Ran and Yang Shijie retreated far away. Although they were anxious, they didn't dare to go in easily. They waited for more than 20 minutes until the exhausted air was clear before continuing to dig.

When the passage was about to be opened, instead of cleaning it outside, the two of them got into the narrow opening and directly pushed the shovel in with the engineering shovel. Finally got through.
