Chapter 833 Cold and Wet

Fan Jiannan rested overnight at Shenqi Hotel, and the next morning, Wu Jinshan called.He has prepared all the equipment and a geological engineering vehicle, waiting for them below.

Fan Jiannan and Feng Yuan saw that Wu Jinshan not only brought all the equipment for underground work, but also drove a car, they were a little strange, "Where did you get the things in your car?"

Wu Jinshan smiled and said, "I borrowed it from someone. Taishan produces jade, so I borrowed these things from the jade mine in Tai'an."

The three of them arrived near the Black Dragon Pool together. Wu Jinshan took out a pair of signs from the back of the car and laid them across the road, blocking the road.The sign reads, "Landslide reinforcement, tourists stop." Wu Jinshan smiled and said, "Although it is not the tourist season, there are still many tourists every day. After the water in the Black Dragon Pool is drained, there is a crypt underneath. In order to prevent tourists from slipping and falling, it is better to isolate this place for safety."

Fan Jiannan nodded and said, "Indeed."

After the three men changed their rubber shoes and miner's lamp, a steel cable was slowly lowered from the back of the engineering vehicle.Wu Jinshan explained, "This is used to detect the depth of the mine. Before we go down, we'd better measure how deep the hole is."

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "It's not very useful, it must be very deep below. But I suspect that there are other passages on the inner stone wall of the Black Dragon Pool. Otherwise, there is no explanation for the ladder used for climbing below." He used a Large lighting fixtures illuminate the stone walls inside the Black Dragon Pool.Sure enough, as the old man said yesterday, there seems to be something like a ladder on the stone wall below. I don't know if it is the copper handle he mentioned.

Wu Jinshan nodded and said, "Maybe, but it's better to be careful. I don't know how many years old these ladders are, and they have been corroded for a long time. Climbing down this way is too risky and takes too much energy. Why don't you just Use the steel cable on this car to slowly lower us down. I don’t think Miss Feng needs to go down, but stay on it. When necessary, you can operate the equipment on the car and pull the steel cable up.”

"That's a good idea." Fan Jiannan nodded. "Feng Yuan, you stay here. After you put us down, we can use the radio to communicate. I guess the radio may not be useful when we get down there. However, the steel cables on this engineering vehicle are very important to us. .We can rely on you if we want to come up."

Feng Yuan hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Alright, then I'll wait for you here. You must be careful when you go down."

Fan Jiannan nodded, put the helmet with the miner's lamp on his head, and together with Wu Jinshan and the two of them slowly descended along the steel cable on the construction vehicle.Although there is no more water under the Black Dragon Pool, it is still very humid. Water seeps out from the edge of the stone wall, dripping down.It was very dark all around, and when I looked up, I could only see a small opening with skylight above.The stone walls are covered with greasy moss, like being in a huge dry well.

Fan Jiannan and Wu Jinshan hung on the safety belt on the steel cable, and as the steel cable was lowered slowly, they gradually approached the row of ladders.Fan Jiannan touched those metal objects with his hands.The tentacles feel cold and rough, and I don't know how many years they have been rusted here.Fan Jiannan didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of tearing the thing off.Fortunately, he and Wu Jinshan were both suspended on steel cables, so they didn't need to use these ladders to support their weight.Just slide down the side a little bit.

"Stop!" Fan Jiannan said suddenly holding the walkie-talkie.

Feng Yuan in the construction vehicle above heard his words, immediately stopped putting down the cable, and said to the intercom, "What's wrong? What's the problem?"

"No problem, just slow down and put it down another meter or so." Fan Jiannan said slowly, but his eyes were fixed on the horizontal passages on the stone wall. "I think we've found something."

"That's right, it looks like a horizontal passage. You guessed it right, there is really a horizontal passage hidden under the Black Dragon Pool. However, according to this direction, the passage should go towards the interior of the mountain. There must be a lot of space inside." Wu Jinshan nodded.

The steel cable was slowly lowered for more than one meter, and Fan Jiannan and Wu Jinshan landed steadily on the horizontal passage with the help of the escalators on the stone walls.The entrance of the passage is also very damp, and the stones are covered with slippery moss.Fan Jiannan and Wu Jinshan unfastened the safety belts that were tightly tied to their bodies, and then they got out of the steel cable.Step by step into this horizontal passage.This channel is not smooth, it seems to be slowly upward.

Fan Jiannan nodded and said, "It seems that the upper space should be higher than the mouth of the Black Dragon Pool, so the water can't be poured in. When this secret path was built, those ancient craftsmen put a lot of effort into it."

Wu Jinshan looked around the passage and frowned, "This place also seems to be made of a lot of stones. But I have never seen such a way of stacking stones. It seems that there is no gap between the stones. How could it be?" So tightly bound?" He tapped the hard stone wall with his hand.

Fan Jiannan adjusted the miner's lamp on his head to the most suitable angle, carefully looked at the stone walls around the passage, and said with a frown, "It's really strange. In ancient times, this should be a huge project. But why have we never heard of it?" Have you heard about Qin Shihuang's massive construction work on Mount Tai?"

Wu Jinshan shook his head and said, "Maybe it's not necessarily him. It's possible that this place existed before the Qin Dynasty. He's just like us, a latecomer. There are no mentions in the many legends about Mount Tai's orifices. To Qin Shihuang."

"But what about the seal carving we found in Black Dragon Pool?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"I don't know about that. However, it is not mentioned in many classics that Qin Shihuang once visited the orifice of Mount Tai." Wu Jinshan said.

Fan Jiannan smiled slightly and said, "Maybe it's more secretive, so most people don't know about it. It's not that when he went up to the mountain to enshrine Zen, many Qilu warlocks said that this enshrinement was not in line with ancient etiquette. But Qin Shihuang abandoned them in a rage, Did he go up to the mountain to enshrine Zen? Maybe the First Emperor did other things besides erecting stones and carving steles."

Wu Jinshan nodded and said, "That makes sense. But we have to go in to find out what the orifice is like. By the way, does your radio have a signal? After we go in, we may lose contact with Feng Yuan. You'd better greet her in advance, lest she be too anxious."

Fan Jiannan nodded, and used the walkie-talkie to contact Feng Yuan again, telling her the current situation and telling her to wait with peace of mind.After doing all this, Fan Jiannan and Wu Jinshan continued to move towards the depths of the passage.
