Explore Changbai Mountain

Chapter 398 Black Slate

Chen Ziyang's words before going to bed untied many people's knots, and the team assembled early the next day, ready to head for the palace on the mountain wall.

The speed of the team's progress is still not fast, this is because they have increased the search area, not just walking directly to the palace.

Where Yin spirits can be bred, there must be Yin objects with extremely Yin Qi. Putting this kind of thing here is like a huge time bomb. It does not know when it will detonate, and it will cause heavy damage to the team .

What's more, according to Zhang Linfu and others' estimates, there may be more than one such yin thing, and the yin spirit bred may not be just the one recovered before, so it is very necessary to be extra careful.

The buildings in front of the palace are all very large. In addition to having higher floors and covering a wider area, there are many courtyards around these buildings, which can be said to be gardens.Every garden is at least three courtyards, and some are even larger.

In these gardens, there are all kinds of ponds, rockery, pavilions and pavilions, and they are meticulously built.The more people watched, the more surprised they were, and they were in admiration for the handwriting of the Tang Dynasty.

Each of these gardens is now a miracle in the history of architecture, not to mention that there are countless such gardens here, and it is not known how many there are.

Considering the shortage of personnel and the large area of ​​these gardens, the team only searched the buildings on both sides of the street when they moved forward, and they didn't have the energy to check further places.

After searching for half a day, they didn't find any useful clues in these gardens, not even a single Yin thing. It seems that what everyone worried about should be hidden in the palace.

In this way, the team moved forward while searching, and soon came to the front of the palace.From a long distance, Zhen Hao, who was walking at the front of the team, saw that strange phenomenon.

The entire palace is higher than the buildings in the Tomb City. There is a large set of steps extending from the end of the Tomb City to the high place, directly connecting to the front of the gate of the palace. At the top of these steps, it looks like There is a big puddle of black water.

This discovery made everyone jump out of the corner of their eyes. Since they entered this huge and exaggerated city of underground imperial mausoleums, they have basically never seen anything other than stones and logs. A puddle of water is really surprising.

And the most unbelievable thing is that the location of this pool of water is actually above the steps in front of the palace. No one can figure out this structure. Could it be that this large area of ​​steps is like a water reservoir? Are the edges the same?

After slowly walking along these steps to the top, everyone realized that they had made a big joke because of the visual illusion. Those things that looked like water from a distance were actually not water at all, but pieces of water. Black slate.

Each stone slab is one meter square, and the square stone slabs are connected together. These stone slabs form a black square in front of the palace gate.

The outer walls of the palace that everyone saw before are actually all reliefs carved directly on the rock wall, all of which were carved on the rock wall in front of them, but the huge palace gate in front of everyone seems to be able to open, a while A gust of cold wind kept blowing from the crack in the door.

In front of the gate of the palace, there is a part of the protruding mountain. The area of ​​this mountain is very large, and it is covered with this kind of black stone slabs. The steps are also built around this part of the mountain.The square paved with stone slabs is much wider than the gate of the palace. It seems that if you want to reach the gate of the palace, you must step over these stone slabs.

This large piece of palace relief is also beyond sight at a glance, and the scale is very grand, which makes people shocked.The most surprising thing is the material of these black slates. These black slates are polished so shiny that they look like black mirrors. All the black slates are connected together like a dark pool. .

The green light from the fluorescent stones in the sky reflected on these smooth black stone plates, just like the pebbles in the pool. It looked extraordinarily beautiful, as if the entire starry sky was reflected in the pool.

People in the team instinctively thought that these black stone slabs were unusual, so no one dared to step up. 21 people surrounded these black slate slabs and stood in a row on the highest step.

At this time, Chen Ziyang noticed a strange phenomenon. Compared with the thick dust on the steps, these stone slabs can be said to be a bit scary clean. The last step was covered with a thick layer of dust.

After grabbing a handful of dust from the steps under his feet, Chen Ziyang looked at the other people in the team, and after getting the consent of Zhang Linfu and Liu Cong, he carefully scattered the sand in his hands on his feet A black stone slab in front of him.

The sand slipped from between his fingers and landed on the surface of the stone slab. Chen Ziyang, who squatted down to observe carefully, found that the dust sprinkled on the slate was slowly moving in his direction.

Then he figured out that the entire square paved with black stone slabs is not horizontal, but has a relatively small inclination angle. The side near the palace is slightly higher, and the side near the steps is slightly lower. This angle is so small that it is not noticeable to the naked eye.

Because these stone slabs were polished extremely smooth, the sand and soil slid down the surface of the stone slabs to this side.

"Hold me, is this a stone slab? It's even smoother than a mirror. Look at the reflection. If such a stone slab is laid in any hall, the color of the woman in a skirt walking on it will be clear at a glance. Already." Seeing how miraculous these slabs are, Yang Lei said in surprise.

"That is to say, you can think of women's underwear from this stone slab. If you are someone else, you don't have such a broad mind. Didn't you always say that you are a geology student? Have you ever seen this kind of stone?" sarcasm Yang After Lei said a few words, Chen Ziyang turned the question on the right track.

"I'm not exaggerating. This kind of stone may seem very magical in your eyes, but to a professional like me, it's also a look of bewilderment. I've never seen it, and I haven't even heard of it. Yes." Yang Lei nodded with certainty and said.

Yang Lei's words almost made other popular people vomit blood. If you don't know, you don't know. What kind of professional are you pretending to be.

The rest of the team took out their tools and poked carefully on the slate in front of them.But no matter whether it is a sapper shovel or a sharp military dagger, no tool can leave a scratch on these stone slabs.

After tentatively touching the stone slab in front of him and finding that no mechanisms were touched, Liu Cong let Mo Wen step on the slate first.

It may be because of the scene where the corner of his clothes pulled the stone pillar before entering the city of the underground tomb, Mo Wen took the first step with extra care. Keep your feet on the ground.

When Mo Wen was about to take the second leg alternately, suddenly there was a piercing sound of "呱啦" from the surface of the stone slab.Because of his body leaning forward, the sole of Mo Wen's foot on the slate rubbed against the surface of the slate, and the slate was too smooth, so his foot slid directly off the slate.

Just like the dust that was sprinkled on the stone slab before, Mo Wen's foot on the slate slid down quickly, and at the same time his whole body leaned forward, and after a bang, he fell hard on the slate, and then he His entire body also slid down the stone slab and rolled all the way to the top of the steps.

"Ouch..." Mo Wen screamed in pain from the fall, a big bump instantly swelled up on his forehead, and the center of the big bump showed a faint blue color, obviously because of the heavy fall, but fortunately He has a relatively strong physique. If it were someone else, he might fall and faint.

Seeing Mo Wen fall, the others were watching around vigilantly, for fear that this might touch some mechanism, but apart from the big bag on Mo Wen's head, nothing else happened at all.

Chen Ziyang figured it out, there is no need for any other mechanism here, these stone slabs are a natural anti-theft means, and they are the best mechanism.Don't look at the palace palace located tens of meters away, but it is not easy to climb over these tens of meters of black stone bricks.

After the tension subsided, there were a few muffled laughs from the crowd, obviously it was the tragic situation of Mo Wen's fall that made them unable to hold back their laughter.

"You don't need to laugh at me, try it yourself." Mo Wen said unwillingly while rubbing his swollen forehead.

"Try it, just try it. Is it possible that it will be worse than you." Zhen Hao, who is usually unsmiling, was the first to stand up at this time, and he laughed the loudest just now.It seems that this kid's sense of humor is different from others, and his sense of humor is different.

After stretching out his right leg with a big stride, Zhen Hao leaned his whole body forward and pressed it all on this leg, so as to increase the friction between the sole of the shoe and the stone slab.When he tentatively shook his body a few times and felt that it was almost done, he took another step with his left leg.

But when his left leg just lifted up, there was also a piercing squeak under the right foot that independently supported his body, and then Zhenhao's right leg slid down quickly, and his body without support fell down.

Because Zhenhao lowered his body too low before, the knee of his right leg hit the black stone slab hard, and then his body was pressed heavily on the right leg again. The knee hurts badly.

Zhen Hao, who was enduring the pain, blushed and didn't let out a scream. When he covered his right knee and rolled down the steps, he still looked at him with a flushed face. Asked Mo, raised his chin, what did he mean, I fell lighter than you.

"Pfft..." Originally, Yang Lei didn't think Mo Wen's fall was so ridiculous, but when he saw Zhenhao's expression after he fell, he couldn't hold back anymore, and burst out laughing.

"Look at me." I don't know which team member yelled these words, and then the team member quickly took a big stride and jumped out at a very fast speed.Seeing what he meant, he wanted to use his own speed and exaggerated strides to cross the stone slab as quickly as a superficial touch.

But when the player's toes touched the stone slab and he took the second step out of thin air, the toes on the slate still slipped backwards, and the player's body fell rapidly.

After feeling bad, the player wanted to gather his feet, but it was already too late, and the player directly landed a standard split on the stone brick.Then he let out a scream of "嗤咕", he clutched the inside of his crotch, and quickly slid off the stone slab.

Seeing the tragic situation of this player, Yang Lei subconsciously covered his inner thigh, "I'm so good, it hurts to look at it. If it were me, these two big hips would be useless."

Now everyone has confirmed that there are no other organs connected to these black stone slabs, so everyone is relieved and uses their own methods to cross the black stone slabs that are tens of meters long.

Some of them wanted to insert something like a dagger into the gap between the stone slabs to borrow strength, but the gap between the stone slabs was very tight, and there seemed to be some fillings inside, so the method they came up with was straightforward. Into bubbles.

There are also people who want to use ropes and the like to directly put them on the opposite mountain wall, and use the ropes to borrow strength, but it may be that the people who built this place have already considered this, and there is no rope on the opposite mountain wall at all. s things.

Several team members are going to go down to the bottom of the steps, and then go around to the side of the black slate square, climb up the stone wall from there and then move laterally, so that they can go directly to the gate of the palace and avoid these slabs.

But when the careful Chen Ziyang pointed them to some holes hidden in the stone wall, these team members all gave up this idea.It seems that on both sides of the palace gate on this mountain wall, there should be some mechanisms that are the same as those on the previous city wall. If you accidentally press it, you will definitely end up like the two team members who died under the snake nails before. fate.

Watching these people fall down on the black stone slab one by one, and slide back to the top of the steps one by one, Chen Ziyang really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The black stone bricks with a short tens of meters are like clowns in the battlefield, providing some entertainment atmosphere for everyone in this tense time.

After working for a long time, almost everyone who tried to go up fell down more than once, and even a few people were bruised and bruised from the fall, but no one found a way to step over these black stone slabs.

At this time, the people in the team no longer find this incident funny, but are a little worried.After walking such a long distance and leaving five lives behind, will they stop at these black stone slabs tens of meters wide?

At this time, Yang Lei, who had been snickering beside him, seemed to have seen enough of the farce. He stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks, and then raised his chest and raised his head and shouted loudly: "It's up to you, Brother Lei, at this time. I have a way."
