Lin San and Gu Jialan carefully observed their surroundings as they walked.
The further east the two of them walked, the fewer animals they encountered, and the last animal was no longer visible.
"There is no road ahead." Lin San suddenly stopped.
Gu Jialan looked up and found that the road ahead was blocked by a hill.
"Boom..." A loud noise came from behind the hill, causing the ground to shake slightly.
"What should we do? If we want to continue walking, we must climb this hill." Lin San looked at Gu Jialan with a questioning look.
Gu Jialan pondered for a moment and said: "We have traveled so far and we cannot let a hill block our way." On the one hand, Gu Jialan was very curious and wanted to understand the source of the loud noise. On the other hand, Gu Jialan was very curious.
, Gu Jialan also didn’t want to be stumped by a hill.
Lin San nodded: "Okay, let's climb over this hill." After saying that, he led Gu Jialan and started climbing the mountain.
The height of the hill is not very high, but it is very steep and it is quite laborious to climb up.
Lin San and Gu Jialan spent a lot of effort to climb to the top of the mountain.
"Hey..." Lin Sanyi sat on the top of the mountain, panting heavily: "I'm exhausted."
Gu Jialan was not feeling well at this time, her face was covered with sweat, and she sat aside and kept wiping the sweat.
"Rumble..." A loud noise suddenly came, and the whole hill trembled violently.
Lin San and Gu Jialan were startled and hurriedly lay down on the top of the mountain, reaching out and grabbing the protruding rocks to steady themselves and not fall from the top of the mountain.
Soon, the hill stopped shaking and the loud noise disappeared.
Lin San raised his head and looked at Gu Jialan beside him: "Miss Gu, are you okay?"
"Cough cough cough..." Gu Jialan coughed a few times and shook his head: "I'm fine... Huh? What is that?" Gu Jialan suddenly stared at the other side of the hill.
"What?" Lin San turned around and was stunned.
I saw a huge stone platform on the opposite side of the hill, with a height of dozens of meters. The stone platform was very smooth and flat. It looked like it was man-made. There was a huge bronze bell in the center of the stone platform.
It’s unbelievable. The exterior of the bronze bell is stained with rust. It looks very old at first glance. Opposite the bronze bell stands two stone pillars. Hanging from the stone pillars is a dark stick, which is as thick as a bucket. For the time being, it looks like it’s very old.
No idea what material the stick is made of.
"Why are there such a big stone platform and bronze bell here?" Lin San said in surprise: "Has anyone been to this desert island before?"
"Looking at the rusty appearance of the bronze bell, it must have been there for a long time." Gu Jialan was also very surprised. It was obvious that the stone platform and the bronze bell were man-made. I really didn't expect that this desert island
Someone has been here before.
"Huhu..." A strong wind blew.
The dark stick on the stone platform was blown by the wind and quickly hit the bronze bell opposite.
"Boom..." With a sound, the copper bell made a loud sound.
Lin San and Gu Jia lay on the top of the mountain, holding their ears firmly, and finally their eardrums were not deafened.
"It turns out it was the bronze bell that made the loud noise." Lin San waited for the loud noise to stop, slowly raised his head, and looked at the bronze bell in surprise.
"How can this copper bell make such a loud sound? It's simply amazing!" Gu Jialan's eyes were filled with wonder.
"No matter why this bronze bell makes such a loud sound, what we have to do now is to stop the black stick from hitting the bronze bell, otherwise our eardrums will be deafened sooner or later." Lin San took a breath.
"But how can we stop it?" Gu Jialan asked.
Lin San pointed at the two stone pillars on the stone platform: "I'll just go over and untie the black stick from the stone pillars."
"Ah, you want to go to the stone platform?" Gu Jialan was stunned: "No, there must be something fishy about this stone platform suddenly appearing on the island. If you rush up so boldly, you might be in danger.
"
"I can't worry about so much now. There will be another gust of wind later, and the black stick will hit the bronze bell again." Lin San stood up and looked at Gu Jialan: "Miss Gu, don't worry, I'll be more careful, I won't
Something's wrong." After saying that, he wanted to go down the hill.
"Wait!" Gu Jialan suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin San.
Lin San turned around in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Gu Jialan took a breath: "I'll go with you, there are more than one person, so I can take care of you."
"No!" Lin San refused directly without thinking: "It's too dangerous."
"You have saved me so many times, I can't let you take risks alone." Gu Jialan said firmly.
"Miss Gu, listen to me..." Lin San still wanted to persuade her.
"You don't have to persuade me, I've made up my mind, let's go, the wind will blow again later." Before Lin San could say anything, Gu Jialan bent down and climbed down the hill directly.
Seeing Gu Jialan being so stubborn, Lin San was speechless. He sighed and had no choice but to climb down the mountain with Gu Jialan.
Going down the mountain is much easier than going up the mountain, at least it can save a lot of energy.
Ten minutes later, Lin San and Gu Jialan climbed down from the hill.
Being closer, Lin Sangujialan can feel the magnificence and momentum of the stone platform better.
"It's so beautiful, so spectacular. This stone platform is so perfectly built." Gu Jialan stood next to the stone platform and stretched out his hand to touch the smooth and flat stone wall, feeling a chill coming from his fingers.
Lin San circled around the stone platform for half a circle, then found a stone staircase on the west side, and then asked Gu Jialan to follow the stone stairs to the top of the stone platform.
After reaching the top of the stone platform, Lin San did not hesitate. He walked to the two stone pillars in a few steps and reached out to untie the black stick hanging on it. However, Lin San's hand stopped mid-air just as it was stretched out halfway, with a look on his face.
Show a surprised expression.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jialan came over and asked.
Lin San swallowed: "I didn't expect that the black stick was tied up with an iron chain."
"Ah?" Gu Jialan was stunned, and when he looked up, he saw that there was an arm-thick iron chain tied in the middle of the black stick, and the two ends of the iron chain fell on two iron pillars.
Lin San stretched out his hand and tugged on the iron chain, grinning: "It's very strong, it can't be broken at all."
"What should we do?" Gu Jialan asked anxiously.
"It would be great if I had tools." Lin San's words were nonsense. Where could he find tools now?
"Huhuhu..." Another strong gust of wind blew.
The black stick was blown by the wind and naturally hit the bronze bell.
Gu Jialan's expression changed: "Not good!" She subconsciously backed away and covered her ears tightly with her hands.
Lin San shouted softly, rushed over and grabbed the black stick, trying to stop the black stick from hitting the bronze bell. Lin San's idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel. The black stick was very heavy and its appearance was extremely smooth.
Lin San tried his best to stop the black stick from hitting the bell.
At this time, Gu Jialan ran over, reached out and hugged Lin San's lower back, and pulled back hard.
With the addition of Gu Jialan, the situation improved slightly. The black stick's collision with the bronze bell slowed down significantly, but the black stick still did not stop, and the distance between the black stick and the bronze bell was getting closer and closer.
At the moment when the black stick was about to hit the bronze bell, Lin San quickly let go of the black stick, hugged Gu Jialan and rolled to the side. Gu Jialan reached out and covered Lin San's ears, while she shrank her head into Lin San's.
In arms.
"Boom..." The black stick finally hit the bronze bell, but the sound it made was far less loud than the previous times. It is probably because Lin San and Gu Jialan just tried their best to pull the black stick, reducing the force of the black stick's impact.
, so the sound of the copper bell was reduced.
After the sound of the bronze bell disappeared, Lin San and Gu Jialan got up from the edge of the stone platform with embarrassed expressions.
"It was really dangerous just now." Lin San exhaled.
Gu Jialan glanced at Lin San and suddenly burst into laughter.
Lin San was stunned: "Miss Gu, why are you laughing so well?"
Gu Jialan pointed at Lin San's face: "Your face is so dark now."
Lin San reached out and wiped a handful of dust from his face: "It must have been on the black stick just now. Miss Gu, you were really brave just now. If it weren't for you, we would definitely be deafened now."
"I didn't think too much at the time, I just wanted to help you." Gu Jialan was also secretly frightened when she thought of what she had just done.
"No, we must find a way to get the black stick off, otherwise next time there is a gust of wind, we will be doomed." As Lin San spoke, he walked to the stone pillar and carefully looked at the iron chain on the stone pillar.
"We don't have tools, so it's impossible to break the chain." Gu Jialan came over and said.
Lin San frowned and thought for a while, then his eyes lit up: "There is another way to try."
"What can I do?" Gu Jialan asked hurriedly.
Lin San walked around the stone pillar with his hands behind his back and said, "Shorten the distance between the black stick and the bronze bell so that the black stick cannot hit the bronze bell."
"Shorten the distance? How to shorten it? Don't you plan to move the bronze bell? This bronze bell is so big, it weighs tens of thousands of pounds at least. Even if the two of us are exhausted, it is impossible to move even half a point." Gu Jialan said in surprise.
.
Lin San smiled: "Miss Gu, who said I want to move the bell? No matter how much I, Lin San, overestimate my capabilities, I will never try to move the bell."
"What do you mean?" Gu Jialan asked doubtfully.
Lin San pointed at the black stick: "Miss Gu, look, the iron chain wrapped around the black stick is so long. If we wrap the iron chain around the black stick a few more times, it will be impossible for the black stick to hit it again.
It’s time to reach the bronze bell.”
Gu Jialan's eyes lit up: "Yes, why didn't I think of that? Lin San, you are so smart. If the iron chain is shortened, the black stick can no longer hit the bronze bell, and then the bronze bell will no longer make a scary sound."
There was a loud noise."
"Miss Gu, please help me, we have to do it quickly, otherwise it will be bad when the wind blows later." Lin San said and walked under the black stick.
Gu Jialan nodded and stepped forward to help Lin San start wrapping the iron chain around the black stick.
"Hoo ho ho..." The wind started to blow again.
"Fuck! This wind is really evil. Why does it blow and stop for a while? It's like it's being controlled by someone." Lin San cursed loudly as he quickly wrapped an iron chain around the black stick.
"The wind blowing is a bit strange." Gu Jialan also felt the same way.
The wind became stronger and stronger, and the black stick began to shake slowly. It seemed that the black stick was going to hit the copper bell at any time.
