After a while, a gust of cold wind blew a fist-sized stone into the cave, and then Sheng Long emerged from the ground and jumped in. Zi Hao was still a translucent light and shadow, but his spirit was obviously weakened. And Sheng Long
He was so tired that he lay there panting. At this moment, he finally felt that the thin air on the plateau made him uncomfortable.
Cheng Tianle frowned and said: "I just asked you to practice cooperation, why do you make yourself so tired?"
Sheng Long gasped and said: "Mr. Cheng, we found a treasure buried under a thick layer of gravel. It took us a long time to take out a piece. If it were on the plains, it wouldn't be so tiring.
But it’s really hard here!”
Cheng Tianle said angrily and funny: "The golden-threaded rat is the golden-threaded rat. It is good at searching for treasures from heaven and earth. What good thing is this stone?"
Sheng Long: "I am so tired that I can hardly breathe. How can I sense it carefully? I just noticed that its special physical properties are very pure and can be refined to integrate the body and mind. It is a material that can be used to refine magic weapons. As for it
I still need to ask Mr. Cheng for advice on what things can be used for."
Cheng Tianle picked up the stone and looked at it for a long time before saying, "This is a laminated stone, and this laminated stone condenses the essence of physical properties. It is indeed a material for making some kind of magic weapon."
Sheng Long asked: "There are many stones like this deep underground here, but there are not many that are pure in physical properties and can be called heavenly materials and earthly treasures. What exactly is laminated stone and what is its use?"
Cheng Tianle: "A few years ago, when Wu Jiaming took me to the handicraft market, I saw this kind of thing. It is a fossil formed by single-cell algae deposited on the seabed in ancient times hundreds of millions of years ago. A small piece contains
Billions of living beings back then carry the aura of the origin of life and traces of historical changes. We are standing on the highest place in the world, but it was once deep under the sea. As for the physical properties of this stone, if it is refined into a magic weapon, there are
It has the effect of calming the mind and regulating the qi.”
Zi Hao: "This is an auxiliary magic weapon. It can't be used for fighting?"
Cheng Tianle: "Not all magic weapons are used for fighting. Many of them are used to help practice or have other wonderful uses. Made of this magic weapon, it can cure the decline of spiritual energy. Of course. If you must use it
It comes to fighting, as long as you have magical hands
It can also operate some of its magical functions and cast spells. The function of the tool also depends on the person." As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the wordless heavenly book tablet he saw in the Liaodong Mountains. Now this laminated stone actually carries that meaning.
The smell of the entire monument.
Zi Hao: "There should be more places deep underground where we just drilled. Do you want to look for them again?"
Cheng Tianle shook his head and said: "Although the treasures of heaven, materials and earth are good, don't be greedy, and don't forget the purpose of our trip. You must stay at your peak. Perform your exercises quickly to restore your spirit. Now that we have found those stones, we still have
If you have to carry it into the Himalayas and back out again, don't you want to collect thunder gold? Let's talk about it later when we have the opportunity. Let's keep this piece as a souvenir."
When night fell, they set off again. Zi Hao looked back at this place with reluctance. There were treasures deep underground, but it was a pity that he couldn't bring more. Places like this were difficult to reach, but he still had the opportunity to pass by.
I found something, but I only took one piece and left. Although there was a reason for it, it is a pity to think about it.
Cheng Tianle didn't feel any regret at all. He only took this stacked stone and continued on the road. Treasures of heaven and earth are hard to find, but when he brought Shenglong to a place like this, it was normal for him to find something. If he was greedy, he
How much can you take? The fuller the backpack, the more troublesome it will be. The road ahead will become more and more difficult and dangerous.
They traveled at night and rested during the day for another three days. Although it was midsummer, ice and snow gradually appeared under their feet. The terrain they reached was getting higher and higher. A plateau covered with ice and snow is very dangerous, and there are ice and snow under the ice.
There are various cracks and faults. Not only are the mountains so steep that there is almost no place to stay, but they are also very slippery. If you are not careful, you may fall into an inexplicable abyss.
If it weren't for the sharpness of his spiritual consciousness that could detect hidden dangers, he would never have been able to rush here. The person leading the way was Zi Hao. He turned into an invisible spirit body and sensed the invisible cracks under the ice and snow, and searched for the most dangerous place in the mountain.
The easy path.
Sheng Long poked his head out of his sleeves, looked at the snow-capped mountains in front of him and said, "Mr. Cheng, do we want to climb over? This is probably more difficult than climbing Mount Everest with bare hands!"
Cheng Tianle shook his head and said: "We don't have to climb over the mountains. There is a naturally formed passage ahead. The altitude of the destination is not too high and it is surrounded by mountains."
Sheng Long: "Is there a passage? There are all snow-capped mountains here, why didn't I see the passage?"
Cheng Tianle: "Find a place to rest later. You can see it after dawn."
While they were talking, they had climbed over a cliff and found a crack in the rock formations to sit down and rest. The morning light gradually rose in the snow-capped mountains, and Zi Hao suddenly exclaimed: "Eagle, I saw an eagle flying! Over there,
There is indeed a passage over there!"
The Himalayas stretch for five thousand miles, but it is not a long and slender mountain range. There are many remnants and branches crisscrossing it. The section that Cheng Tianle walked on is the highest mountainous place on earth, with peaks and ridges as wide as eight
Hundreds of miles. If you look at it from the air, it is cut into a grid shape by snowy peaks and interlaced ridges. Between those white snowy mountains are basins with great differences. These basins have been untouched since ancient times and are isolated from the world.
state.
Cheng Tianle is currently based at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters. On both sides are snow-covered peaks. In front is a basin. The terrain extends downward. The lowest altitude is only about 4,000 meters. It gradually grows at different heights.
Moss, short grass close to the ground, sparse shrubs, and even sparse trees. Under the snow peaks is a grassland, and under the grassland is a primitive jungle that is not lush.
Vegetation growth requires not only a suitable temperature, but also a certain amount of precipitation. Although it is not warm and humid here, it is enough for the cold and drought-resistant plants on the plateau to grow. In addition to being irrigated by snow water from the mountains, this area has a few square meters.
There was also some warm and moist air blowing from the opposite side of the ten-mile plateau basin, forming a circling wind between the snowy peaks. Although the warm and moist feeling was weak, Cheng Tianle was keenly aware of it.
Looking across this basin, one can see the middle section of the snow-capped mountains on the opposite side, but there is a neat gap, as if it has been split open by a giant axe, forming a natural passage to another plateau basin.
, slightly warm and humid wind
It was blown from there. Yu Daoyang told Cheng Tianle in his thoughts that this passage was the only way to take the Luo Lei Jin. Starting from the Everest base camp, he walked through the mountains for four nights, all day long.
Le finally saw this landmark.
Where there are vegetation and jungles, there are animal activities, and eagles will fly here to find prey. Cheng Tianle saw more than one eagle flying in the sky. Sheng Long exclaimed: "At the highest place in the world, surrounded by lifeless snow-capped mountains
Among them, there is such an oasis, it's like... a paradise?" He couldn't find a more suitable adjective for a while, and only remembered the allusion of a paradise, even though there were no peach trees or peach blossoms here.
Cheng Tianle nodded and said: "I don't know how many years this place has been isolated from the world. The animals and plants are probably a little different from other places, and there may even be things that have become extinct in the outside world. Someone came here more than five hundred years ago and discovered
There are many exotic flowers, plants, birds and monsters that are not found elsewhere, so we have to be careful. Take a rest first, and then cross this basin and that passage at night."
That night, they did not enter the jungle in the center of the basin, but went around the grassy slopes on the edge. Even at night, there were animal activities here. They found several kinds of weird spiders living in caves among the gravel.
They build nets among the short grass to hunt, and there are also many insects and a large lizard.
Lizards are mostly found in the tropics, but they can also be found in the cold zone. The mountain iguanas that live on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are generally only a dozen centimeters long. But the lizard Cheng Tianle saw here looked exactly like a mountain iguana, but was more than two feet long.
, moves very nimbly among the rocks, and comes out
He disappeared on the edge of the grassy slope and the woods. Cheng Tianle was obviously an "alien species". Although he restrained himself and walked silently, his appearance still alarmed many small animals such as spiders nearby, and the spiders fled away.
, making a slight "rustling" sound.
They arrived at the passage after midnight. The moonlight on the plateau was particularly bright, shining onto the world and leaving a clear shadow on the mountain. Only when walking into the passage did Cheng Tianle feel deeply shocked, and even his soul seemed to be affected.
I was touched. The bottom of this passage is very flat, allowing several people to walk side by side. The entrance will be near the snow line, and on both sides are steep and sloping cliffs, forming a huge V shape, with a drop of more than a thousand meters.
Cheng Tianle originally thought it was a naturally formed geological fault, but the further he walked, the more he felt something was wrong. Scanning the cliffs on both sides with his spiritual consciousness, he could also find traces of many geological faults, but they were not in the same direction. But this
The passage was straight, as if it had been cut open by an incredible force, and it was cut in one go.
If this passage was not formed naturally but was split open by manpower, then what kind of person could do it? This is simply beyond Cheng Tianle's imagination, it is a kind of miracle! I think Yu Daoyang walked through here back then.
I'm afraid I had the same emotion when I was there, right?
Cheng Tianle couldn't help but think of the huge Tara relief he saw on the snowy mountain cliff last year. It was also an incredible artificial trace, but he saw it with his own eyes. The more places he passed in this world, the more this world gave him
The more shocked he is, some of them are beyond his understanding, so he should observe and feel them carefully.
It is not unreasonable to feel that this passage was split by a giant axe, because its bottom is not horizontal, but presents an arc extending upward like an ax blade. As we walked, the terrain became higher and the gravel beneath our feet once again
It was covered with ice and snow, and the stone walls on both sides didn't even have a cave or crack where you could hide. When the sky was dim, you looked up and saw a crystal clear world ahead.
