Explore Changbai Mountain

Chapter 383 Only because of being in this mountain

Chen Ziyang is really helpless, he has tried his best.Although Liu Cong didn't talk about it these days, he could tell from Liu Cong's eyes that Liu Cong was on the verge of getting angry.No one thought that what was thought to be the simplest test about the Maoshan Earth Master had such a big flaw.

Another day passed, and Chen Ziyang and others who went out to search for the Taoist Holy Land still found nothing.After meeting the two old men, all three of them lowered their heads and sighed.

Slap in the face, pure slap in the face.The reminder clearly pointed out that there must be a dragon's lair in the mountain range under his feet, but as a Maoshan geologist, he couldn't find it after searching for a few days. Chen Ziyang felt that he was really ashamed.

In the past few days, he was so anxious that he couldn't eat or drink water. Because he was anxious to get angry, both of Chen Ziyang's lips were covered with blisters, but no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't find the dragon's lair. There has been no progress.

"It's still early, why don't we go out and take a look?" Yang Lai asked tentatively.

"No, I have walked this mountain range back and forth three times. If you count the other two teams, you have walked it nine times in total. It's the same thing if you look for it again. There will be nothing missing. " Chen Ziyang said in a hoarse voice.

Seeing that Chen Ziyang was not in a good mood, Yang Lei and Shan Shishuai hid aside, leaving him an independent space to calm down.

Chen Ziyang did not give up searching. Although he stayed where he was resting, his brain did not stop, but was running fast, analyzing all the clues rationally.

"It seems that this hidden dragon's lair is not simple, but no matter how deep it is hidden, there should be traces to follow. There must be something that we have missed, but why is there no clue?" Chen Ziyang thought in his heart .

He knew that at present, if he wanted to find this dragon's lair, it was no longer enough to rely on his eyes and legs alone. What he needed most now was an opportunity, an opportunity to remind himself and give him a feeling of enlightenment.

Looking at Chen Ziyang who had been sitting motionless for two hours in the distance, Yang Lei also heaved a long sigh, and then he came to Chen Ziyang's side with a water bottle.

"Drink some water. Your lips are full of blisters. If you don't drink any more water, your body won't be able to take it anymore. This water is very good. It comes from the spring at the source of the stream. It is very sweet. It can compete with the mountain spring water in our house."

Although Chen Ziyang couldn't drink it at all, he didn't want to waste Yang Lei's kindness, so he took a few sips from the water bottle and wet his dry lips.At this time the sun was about to set, and Chen Ziyang stared at the unglamorous sun in a daze.

"Okay, don't think about it, just walk up the mountain with me, and I'll take you to see the spring that draws water."

"What's so good about springs? Haven't you seen enough since you were a child? We don't have any springs there, so it's worth your fuss." Chen Ziyang said disdainfully.

There are vast volcanic underground mineral water layers in the Changbai Mountain area, especially in the line from Jingyu County to Fusong County. The underground mineral water resources here are very rich, such as Nongfu Spring, Lehaha, Kang Shuaifu, Hengxiao Bingquan and other well-known water springs. All factories have production bases here.Especially Hengxiao Bingquan, where the only production base in the country is built.

"Don't tell me, it's not that I've seen it so strange, the spring above it is really special, I've never seen it like that before. Let's go, don't think about it here, come with me to wash your face, sober." Yang After Lei finished speaking, he dragged Chen Ziyang to the hillside without hesitation.

When walking up the hillside along the stream, Chen Ziyang couldn't figure out what kind of spring would make Yang Lei feel so fussed.Generally speaking, there are no more than three sources of mountain spring water.

The first is to have a huge cistern.Terrains like craters or depressions on top of mountains store large amounts of rainwater, which then flows down through gaps, like the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain.

However, such mountain spring water is exposed on the surface, the water quality is not very good, and it is easy to be polluted.Its advantages are large water storage, large water flow, and basically no flow.

The second is that there is a large amount of water stored in the soil layer on the top of the mountain.Then when the water accumulates to a certain level, the water will slowly seep out of the soil layer and converge into a stream.

This kind of mountain spring water has been filtered by the soil layer, and the water quality is much better. However, the water storage capacity is relatively small. Although it is not easy to stop the flow, the amount of water flowing out is relatively small, and at most it can only converge into a small stream.

The third is groundwater.After the groundwater in the underground rock layer is squeezed, it gushes out from the cracks in the rock or the cracks on the surface, becoming the source of water, and the place where the water gushes out is also called a spring.

There are many springs gushing out of groundwater on flat ground, but in some areas due to special geological structures, these groundwater will be squeezed to the high places of the mountain along the cracks in the mountain, and then flow out.

Because this kind of groundwater is hidden under the surface, it is less polluted and the water quality is better. At the same time, after being filtered by the underground rock formation, there are very few impurities, and the minerals in the underground rock formation are brought out, rich in various Minerals are the best mineral water.

After arriving at the source of the stream, Chen Ziyang discovered that the source of the stream was a spring on a mountain.This spring is one meter square, about half a meter deep, and the height of the water surface from the bottom of the spring is about 30 centimeters.

There is not a lot of water in the spring, and a small splash can be vaguely seen in the center of the water surface, which should be because water is gushing from the ground.There is a gap below the spring, and the water flows out of this gap, forming the previous creek.

"Did you drag me so far just to see such springs all over the street?" Although Chen Ziyang knew it was Yang Lei's kindness, he still couldn't help asking.Although the springs on the top of the mountain are rare, they are not so rare. There are still several springs like this in my hometown.

"Don't worry, just watch." After Yang Lei finished speaking, he picked up a stone from the side and blocked the gap in the spring.And he also grabbed some soil from the surroundings, and blocked the gap between the stone and the gap tightly.

As the gap was blocked, the water in the spring had nowhere to drain, and the water level slowly rose.After a while, the water surface rose to a height of 40 cm from the bottom of the spring.

As the water surface rose, the splashes on the water surface stopped, and the ripples on the water surface became smaller and smaller. Finally, the entire water surface came to a complete stillness. Obviously, no more water gushed out of the spring.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Lei took off his helmet, scooped up some water from the helmet in the spring, and splashed it out of the spring.As the water level dropped, water splashed out again, and the spring spewed out spring water again, but when the water level rose to a height of 40 centimeters again, it stopped again.

"How about it, isn't it fun?" Yang Lei scooped out the water from the spring with his helmet again and said.

"Why are you like a big child? This kind of spring comes out after the water in the mountain is squeezed. You block the gap. After the water level rises to a certain height, the weight of the water in the spring increases. It's exactly equal to the pressure in the mountain, so there's no more water coming out of the mountain."

"Look at you, you really don't have any sentimentality. It's a fun thing. You insist on explaining it with scientific knowledge. If you explain it like this, I don't think it's any fun." Yang Lei opened his mouth , said very unhappy.

Then he was about to remove the stone blocking the opening of the spring, but just as Yang Lei stretched out his hand, Chen Ziyang grabbed it fiercely.

Chen Ziyang stared at the calm water in front of him with surprised eyes, as if he suddenly realized something, then he turned around suddenly and looked down the hillside.

When walking up the hillside, Chen Ziyang found that the area of ​​the hillside became smaller as he went up. On both sides of the hillside, there were two low-rise ridges that slowly converged.At that time, he realized that as the terrain rose, the direction of the two ridges became somewhat symmetrical.

There is nothing surprising about this. There are countless ridges like this in this mountain range, and their directions are roughly the same.What aroused Chen Ziyang's interest was that there was a depression in each of the high places of the two ridges.

These two depressions are located at the ends of the two ridges, and the gaps are relatively large, which should be naturally formed from the outline.Through these two depressions on the ridge, you can see far away, and at this time the setting sun is just about to fall into the depression on the west ridge.

"I said what are you doing grabbing my hand?" Because of being too excited, Chen Ziyang grabbed Yang Lei's hand trembling slightly, and squeezed it so tightly that it hurt Yang Lei a little.

"Hush...don't make noise." Chen Ziyang ignored Yang Lei's complaints, and just stood there quietly, staring at the setting sun.

Ten minutes passed, and the sun slowly set in the west, falling into the depression of the ridge little by little.At the same time, the moon unexpectedly rose slowly from the east, revealing a curved crescent in the depression of another ridge.

At certain latitudes and certain seasons, the sun and the moon often appear in the same sky. This is caused by the particularity of the terrain and latitude, and it is not so unusual.This scene can often be seen in the spring and autumn seasons in the Northeast.

At this time, the rising moon and setting sun perfectly merged into the depressions of the two ridges. The outlines of these two depressions were like the palms of Gao Tuo, supporting the sun and the moon at the same time.

Seeing the wonderful scene in front of him, Chen Ziyang suddenly understood something, and he hurriedly looked at the location of the spring again.This spring is located in a depression between two not-too-high peaks, right in the middle of the depression, and right above the mountain range.

"The sun and the moon are in the same sky! There is no overflowing spring!" Chen Ziyang muttered to himself while thinking about something, then he turned around sharply and looked at the dragon-shaped broken mountain in the distance.

"The giant dragon is coiled outside, holding the sun and the moon in its arms. My God, I am so stupid. No wonder I can't find it after searching for so long. I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, only because I am in this mountain. Leizi, hurry up! Come on!" Call Liu Cong!" Chen Ziyang let go of Yang Lei's hand, and shouted at him.

Although Yang Lei didn't understand what happened, but seeing Chen Ziyang's expression, he estimated that the dragon's lair that everyone had been looking for had been discovered.So Yang Lei spread his legs and hurried down the hillside, calling Liu Cong's name loudly while running.

After a while, Liu Cong led several people towards Chen Ziyang, and Zhang Linfu and Guo Huaxing were among them.

After a group of seven or eight people came in front of Chen Ziyang, they panted heavily while showing puzzled and questioning eyes.

Chen Ziyang didn't talk nonsense to them, but pointed to the depressions of the two ridges with both hands.Although after a few minutes, the moon rose higher and the sun set lower, but from this angle, it can still be seen that the moon and the sun are wrapped in the depressions of the two ridges.

When Guo Huaxing and Zhang Linfu saw this scene, they suddenly realized something. Then they came to the spring behind Chen Ziyang and looked at it for a while, both showing surprised expressions.

"Is this not overflowing spring!"

"That's right, this should be the Buyiquan!"

"There is a non-overflowing spring here, and there is a wonderful scene where the sun and the moon are in the same sky, and the sun and the moon are held up by the depressions of the two ridges. Such a strange scene should be a good cave. Is this the place where the dragon's cave is located? Is it?"

Zhang Linfu and Guo Huaxing looked left and right, constantly changing their positions, looking around on this hillside, and then the surprised expressions of the two slowly turned into disappointment.

"What's wrong, no matter how you look at it, you can't see any dragon's lair here? We have been here before when we were looking for dragon's lair, and it is not far from our camp. The number of times we passed here is the most.

Although we didn't see the wonderful scene of the sun and the moon in the same sky at that time, we have seen it several times here, and there should be no dragon's lair. "Zhang Linfu said to Chen Ziyang very strangely.

"I just have a guess now, but I guess it's probably close to ten. Before it's dark, let's verify it now." After saying this to Zhang Linfu, Chen Ziyang looked blank Liu Cong asked:

"Liu Cong, I remember you brought an aerial camera this time, didn't you? How far can that thing fly?"

"Ah?" Liu Cong didn't expect that Chen Ziyang would suddenly ask such a strange question, what do you need the drone for at this time.

Although this time, in order to reduce the load, he did not bring the large aerial camera that he used in Jue Yin, but Liu Cong still brought a small aerial camera.

"There is one, but it can't fly very far. I guess...fly at most five or six kilometers, and the battery may be dead."

"Five or six kilometers? It should be enough. You hurry up and order someone to bring the aerial camera, I will be of great use."
