The dark space gives us the best cover, and once white beetles appear, because their internal organs are transparent and as bright as flames, we can spot them from a long distance at the first time.
After everyone walked slowly along the bank of the underground river for about ten minutes, I felt a fresh cool breeze coming from the left side of my body. I was about to say something, but Fei Fan said: "I
It feels like there is an exit or passage on the left side, and there is a flow of air."
I nodded and said, "I also felt it. This location should be where the mountain wall protrudes, and it is also where we met the Yankees and the white beetles."
Fei Fan said: "Okay, let's turn left here." So we all followed the airflow and continued to walk to the left in the dark without turning on the lights.
When we touched the protruding stone wall and walked slowly forward for about tens of meters, we suddenly felt that the ground was much smoother and no longer covered with rocks. Strangely, those white beetles did not appear again, as if they were not there anymore.
Knowing where we were flying in this endless underground space made us all secretly happy in our hearts. The Americans were probably frightened by the white cup worms, and they no longer knew where they had gone.
In the darkness, after we all walked for a while, a glimmer of light appeared in front of us. It felt very far away. The light was just a light spot the size of a grain of rice, but it gave off a very strange light with an indescribable color. At this time, everyone changed.
He was so nervous that he motioned for everyone to stop, and then said in a low voice: "I don't know what the source of the bright light in front is. If it is from the cup worm, it will be troublesome. I will go forward to explore first, everyone be careful
.”
After saying that, without waiting for any of us to react, he walked forward quietly alone.
When he walked away, Pang Xiaotai looked at his funny movements and suddenly said: "Actually, Senior Fei is quite capable and he is also very generous. Every time he encounters something unknown, he always takes the lead."
Be the first to scout for all of us."
Everyone looked at him in surprise, and he seemed a little embarrassed and said: "Don't look at me, I am speaking from my heart."
Taoist Zengfan said at this time: "Fei Fan is indeed a good person." He sighed and said: "When I met him, he was still very young and ambitious, and he was an archaeological expert.
disciple. At that time, he was very smart, very capable, and very diligent and eager to learn."
Speaking of this, she suddenly fell silent again.
The little clerk asked curiously: "Taoist Priest, how did you know him? Then why did Senior Fei become a thief...country master again?"
Taoist Master Zengfan pondered for a moment, and then said: "I don't know why Fei Fan left the archaeological team and became a tomb robber who was not accepted by the world. When I met him, it was during an archaeological operation. At that time, Fei Fan
Ichiban's body was not like this. We only got along with him for less than a month at that time. Later, after the archeology was over, we lost contact. A few years later, we heard about an archaeological operation. His mentor, the archaeological expert, was there.
He disappeared during the archaeological operation, and Fei Fan left the archaeological team without saying goodbye. I saw him again about ten years ago, and he became what he is now, and his body changed so strangely. You guys
Everyone doesn’t know that Fei Fan was originally a very handsome man about 1.8 meters tall. I don’t know why, but he turned into what he is today. I asked him about it when I met him more than ten years ago.
It was a change, but he refused to say anything and fled in a hurry, never to be seen again."
After listening to Taoist Master Zengfan's description of Fei Yifan, everyone was sighing. I thought to myself, how Fei Yifan changed from a tall man of over 1.8 meters to what he is today must be because of something.
Strange events or some incredible mutation occurred in him. This made me very curious about Fei Fan. I don’t know why, but I secretly decided to find out Fei Fan’s secret.
At this time, Jiao Yiming suddenly pointed in the direction of Fei Fan, who was scouting ahead, and said, "Look, everyone, Senior Fei seems to be sending a signal to us."
When everyone took a look, they saw that Fei Fan, who was already far away from us, was using a flashlight to turn on and off us and seemed to be giving some prompts. Instructor Shui said: "Everyone, go over and take a look. Senior Fei should have discovered something."
.”
We all responded and immediately walked to where Fei Fan was.
When we were about to get closer to Fei Yifan, the light in front of us became the size of a football as the distance got closer and closer. At this time, we saw that the light it radiated was a strange purple color, very strange.
Dazzling.
Everyone saw Fei Fan squatting on the ground, holding something like a backpack in his left hand, and a round object in his right hand. We didn’t know what it was. When we arrived, Fei Fan’s face looked a little solemn.
He raised the backpack and the things in his hand and waved it to us, and then said: "This should be the backpack left behind by the Yankee in a hurry when he was chased by the white cup worm. I opened it and saw that except for some sundries, there was everything inside.
There is something strange that looks like some kind of instrument, but I don’t know what it is used for.”
Everyone gathered around. This instrument was round and looked like a box with a steel structure. What surprised everyone was that there was a small hole in the middle of the box, and a red light seemed to flash inside it every few seconds.
, there are two buttons, one white and one black, on both sides of the box.
The water instructor took the instrument from Fei Fan's hand, looked at it, and said: "This is an infrared detector, mainly used for mineral detection, or used by the military to detect mines. It is currently the largest such instrument in the world.
It is advanced. The United States just successfully developed it last year. This detector is light and flexible and contains the most sensitive invisible antenna."
"Detector? What do these Americans want to use this instrument to detect?" Fei Fan frowned and asked.
Instructor Shui snorted coldly: "What they are looking for is probably what we are looking for. Why are these American spies always one step ahead of us? It turns out that they have the most advanced detection equipment in the world, but now they are
It helped us a lot.”
Fei Fan nodded and said, "Yes, but the key is how to use this thing?"
Instructor Shui smiled and said: "This thing is not difficult to use. Now do we all see the flashing red light in this small hole? This means that the detection thing exists, and the white buttons of these two buttons represent
Search, black represents positioning. During the search process, the faster the red light flashes, that is, the faster the flashing frequency, which means the closer we are to what we are looking for. During the process of the red light flashing, do we need to
Keep pressing the black button. When we reach within one meter of what we are looking for, the black button is pressed, and the red light will stay on and stop flashing. At this time, we will search within this one meter range.
You can find what you are looking for.”
At this time, everyone understood that it seemed that as long as we used this detector to search, we would find what we were asked to find.
The water instructor put the instrument into his backpack, and then said to everyone: "Although the instrument can now detect its existence, judging from the flashing frequency, it is still relatively far away from the thing we are looking for. We still have
We need to continue walking forward, the direction indicated by the instrument is directly in front of us."
At this time, Fei Fan nodded and said: "It seems that the bright light in front is not emitted by the cup worm. This purple light should be emitted by some kind of substance. From the map, it should be within the scope of the Crystal City. Everyone needs to
Be vigilant."
So, we all continued to walk forward. The purple light was very dazzling, and the rest of the road was illuminated so brightly that there was no need to turn on our flashlights.
After walking forward for less than five minutes, we finally saw clearly that there was a cave entrance in front of us. The purple light shone in from outside the cave entrance. It seemed that there was an extremely strange purple light world outside the cave. This made us very curious.
, but I also felt a little uneasy in my heart, not knowing what kind of unpredictable wonderland would appear outside the cave entrance.
The moment we all stood at the entrance of the cave, we were all frightened and overwhelmed by the scene outside the cave. It felt like we had entered an incredible dream or a strange world. A wonderful and unreal one.
A strange, even weird feeling hit each of us at the same time.
Just like we had just passed through the cave of the Blood Snake King, opened the seven-star chain button, walked through the underground grand canyon and saw the Golden City for the first time. Below the entrance of the cave where we are, there is a concave basin, standing in the center of the basin.
There is an incredible and strange city. The entire city is actually made of purple crystal. At this moment, this incredible city is emitting unparalleled purple brilliance, lighting up the entire underground space.
What makes us even more unbelievable is that around the Crystal City, there is an even more bizarre underground world of plants and animals.
Countless weird plants grow around and in the basin. In the botanical garden, we also saw many flying insects that we had never seen before. There seemed to be reptiles moving in the gaps between the plants.
.
It took a long time for everyone to wake up from the dream-like trance. Pang Xiaotai looked at the fantastic scene under his feet with some obsession and dull eyes, and murmured: "Are we dreaming? Where is this? These things are all
Real?"
Everyone was silent, no one answered him, and indeed no one could answer him. At this moment, I believe everyone is doubting everything they saw.
Just standing like this, watching, after a few minutes, Taoist Master Zengfan first seemed to sigh in a low voice and said: "It seems that this is the Crystal City, and it does live up to this magical name. Don't feel weird anymore."
Now, the scene in front of us is real, not a fantasy. Let’s find a way to go down there.”
Everyone nodded mechanically and finally slowly regained their consciousness.
It didn't take much time for us to find the way down. It was a path paved with colorful crystal stones that should have been built by humans, winding directly to the Crystal City below.
