The rest of the time was dull and depressing, no one wanted to talk, and there was a lifeless atmosphere.
Xiao Bing didn't say a word and rowed desperately. It seemed that only in this way could he alleviate the pain in his heart.
Fortunately, the rest of the journey was not far, and half an hour later, they finally reached the other side.
After landing on the shore, Xiao Bing turned around and looked at the dark lake. He couldn't help but shed tears again in his eyes.
Bayar walked over, patted Xiao Bing's shoulder gently, turned around and left without saying anything.
The other team members packed up their equipment silently and slowly followed Bayar. Everyone's heart felt as if a big stone was weighing on them, and it was so heavy and uncomfortable.
Ai Li came over, lay on Xiao Bing's shoulder, and burst into tears.
Xiao Bing wiped his eyes, patted Ellie on the shoulder, and forced a smile: "Sister Ai, don't be sad, people cannot be resurrected, and we still have a lot of things to do! The boss's spirit in heaven doesn't like us to be so fragile!
"
Ai Li nodded, put away her tears, and followed Xiao Bing silently.
After taking just a few steps, she couldn't help but look back at the dark lake. Although she couldn't see anything on the dark lake, she seemed to see Han Feng's quiet smile again through her tearful eyes.
She knew that this young man's elegant demeanor had been quietly embedded in her bones.
Her tears came again.
Xiao Bing stretched out his hand and gently held Aili's hand. A strong heat instantly spread throughout Aili's body.
She was very surprised.
She felt that Xiao Bing had changed. This big boy who was so lively and almost naughty not long ago had actually become much calmer and more mature after suffering such a big blow.
In fact, she didn't know how the "Cold Thorn" team members, who were so frightening to the enemy, could be defeated so easily? They were a group of super warriors made of special materials. The more they were tempered, the sharper they became.
Soon after landing, the team members came to the bottom of the huge stone steps. These stone steps were all made of white marble. Wherever the lights shone, the light shimmered. The stone steps stretched up, like ladders falling in the sky.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised: Weiyang Kingdom is really right in front of us!
There are 480 stone steps in total, with a vertical height of nearly one hundred meters. At the end of the stone steps, huge caves appear.
The caves here are sealed with huge stones, like a city wall, with tall city gates in the middle. These gates are thick and simple, and are studded with doornails and door beasts made of gold. They are different from the previous stone gates.
, they are all made of huge logs.
These city gates are all open.
After walking through the long city gate, everyone looked up and saw a sky full of stars.
"What is that?" the team members shouted in surprise. They seemed to be under the huge and beautiful starry sky. This strange sight made all the team members feel confused.
After careful observation, the team members discovered that these so-called "stars" were colorful luminous stones decorated on white pipes.
What are they used for? With this question in mind, everyone entered Weiyang City a thousand years ago.
Under the illumination of the lights, a miniature version of a prosperous city in ancient times appeared before everyone's eyes.
The houses are neatly arranged, the buildings are connected, the streets and lanes are clear, and the roads are clear.
The houses and pavilions are almost all built of pure white marble and sandalwood, and the planning is extremely reasonable. The wooden buildings are elegant and exquisite, the stone houses are clean and solemn, and the buildings are divided into different areas, row upon row, making it extremely prosperous.
All utensils are made of gold. Jewels and jades can be seen everywhere here. Even the priceless bloodstone and purple jade are regarded as ordinary decorations here.
The team members' eyes were about to fall off.
All roads are made of pure white marble, which are smooth, smooth, and perfectly jointed. The sidewalks and carriage paths are even more distinct.
Along the way, everyone was overwhelmed with things to see: library, weapons depot, imperial college, private houses, official residences, restaurants, teahouses, singing gardens, shops, temples, medical houses... everything was available, and it was perfect.
The team members were all surprised.
After the inspection, everyone was full of praise for the lighting, drinking water and drainage systems here.
It turned out that the white pipe decorated with luminous stones that the team members saw when they first came in was the passage used by Weiyang Kingdom to exhaust smoke. The dense spider web-like flue was designed into a huge "Jade Girl Goshawk" pattern on the top of the cave.
Looking below, the "goshawk" spreads its wings, the jade girl flies gracefully, and the entire "sky" is filled with colors and sparkles.
Both sides of the road are lined with "lantern slaves" made of gold. The shapes of the lamp slaves are various, including figures, birds and beasts, flowers and trees, gods and Buddhas... each with its own mood and lifelike appearance.
Out of curiosity, an expedition team member opened a "Lamp Slave" and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Captain Bayar, come and see!"
Bayar and everyone immediately surrounded him.
It turns out that the interior of the "Lamp Slave" is actually empty. There is no oil tank or wick as expected. There is only a thin metal tube leading to the ignition port.
The team members were extremely surprised.
Bayar looked at it for a while, then smelled it vigorously with his nose a few times, and said decisively: "They are using oil and gas lamps!"
"What?" Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. This is simply unbelievable. More than a thousand years ago, the residents of Weiyang Kingdom already knew how to use natural gas?
Looking at the exquisite and unique "Lamp Slave" in front of us, we can easily think of the splendor and beauty of thousands of lights blooming thousands of years ago. This is a real "city that never sleeps"!
The water supply is even more ingenious. A lightweight water tank flies in the air, leading the waterfall deep in the cave directly to the city, and then connects it to each household with special pipes, forming a convenient and clean water supply system.
There are no ditches at all outside the house. It turns out that when the house was first built, the people here first designed an excellent drainage system. Through a network of interconnected underground tunnels, the city's sewage was discharged into the cave in front of the cave.
In the lake.
Bayar sighed while watching: "What an amazing miracle! Historians all believe that the water diversion and drainage system of ancient Rome is unparalleled. In fact, compared with the Weiyang Kingdom a thousand years ago, what did they have?
"
Everyone deeply agrees.
When everyone came to the depths of the cave, a splendid palace complex appeared in front of the team members. The nine-story palace was decorated with 1,800 luminous pearls. The pearls flowed and were as bright as day. Viewed from a distance
, shaped like an exquisite and clear glazed tower.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly rushed towards the "nine-story palace" like crazy.
However, when they rushed under the palace, the team members discovered that the beautiful palace was actually "in the sky".
It turns out that the nine-story building is actually suspended from the top of the cave by twelve thick golden rope chains, bending upward, shaped like a crescent moon. It is a beautiful design. This design can be said to be the oldest in the history of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.
Unique, this is a true "loft in the sky".
Other palace buildings closely surround the "pavilion in the sky" like stars over the moon. There are no walls outside the palace complex, and there is only a clear and transparent river isolated from the rest of the city. The water surface is four or five meters wide, like a jade belt, and is separated from the rest of the city.
The palaces in the "heaven" complement each other brilliantly.
On the river, with the palace as the center, there is a small white marble bridge on the front, back, left and right, which is exquisite and exquisite, like four exquisite jade dragons lying on the blue waves.
Under the "Nine-Storey Palace", there are four special telescopic ladders connected to the palace below.
Everyone was so excited that they almost forgot to eat and rest, and climbed up to the Weiyang Palace hanging in mid-air in one breath.
The nine-story palace is extremely luxurious. Doors, windows, columns, railings, gums, and appliances are all made of gold. Every floor is paved with emeralds, and the walls are studded with diamonds of different colors.
, brilliance shimmering, dazzling.
No one can imagine how much gold and jewelry was used in this small city of Weiyang.
However, in such a huge capital city, not a single person was seen, not even a single body was left. Where were the residents of Weiyang Kingdom? Did they flee before the big earthquake, or were they destroyed by the sudden war? It doesn’t seem like it.
, but mysteriously disappeared thousands of years ago without any warning.
Just as everyone was guessing, the team members suddenly heard a scream. When they looked back, they saw that Ellie had fallen from the five-story tower.
It turned out that at the end of the railing of the five-story royal tower, a small unicorn carved from mutton-fat white jade was tilted. Ellie happened to see it. In a moment of boldness, she climbed over the railing and tried to right it. Unexpectedly, she saw that it was as dark as an abyss under her feet.
I was so flustered that I suddenly fell down the stairs.
The team members were all shocked.
From such a high Weiyang Palace, if it falls, won’t it shatter into pieces?
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly flew up from downstairs, like a flying swallow piercing the clouds, crossing the high ladder, just in time to catch Ellie's delicate body falling like a meteor, and then turned her body over, flying like a dragon, and she was already
Gently sweep into the building.
The team members rushed downstairs like crazy.
As soon as we rushed to the ground floor, everyone was stunned.
Ai Li was lying quietly in Han Feng's arms, having fainted from fright.
"Boss..." Xiao Bing reacted first, grabbed Han Feng's hand, shook it hard, and pinched his thigh with his hand to see if he was dreaming. He grinned in pain, and then he realized that Han Feng was really
Right in front of his eyes. Suddenly his voice choked with sobs: "Boss...you...you are really...still alive..."
The team members gathered around one after another, with tears of excitement rolling in their eyes.
Han Feng handed Ali to a team member next to him, then patted Xiao Bing on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What? You think I'm dead?"
"We searched for a long time, but couldn't find anything, so..." Xiao Bing choked.
Han Feng smiled.
It turned out that after Han Feng was dragged to the bottom of the lake by the piranha, the spur happened to be stuck between the upper and lower giant teeth of the piranha. Although the piranha's mouth could not be closed, the sharp tooth knife penetrated Han Feng's wrist, causing blood to flow.
Because the piranha's sharp teeth were hanging on Han Feng's clothes and wrists, he had to try his best to get rid of it. However, in the dark bottom of the lake, the power of such a big piranha was unimaginable. As a result, Han Feng was killed by the piranha like a toy.
He was running rampant at the bottom of the lake with no way to escape.
Seeing that his true energy was about to be exhausted, Han Feng made a decisive choice. He took out a grenade with his left hand, unscrewed it, and stuffed it into the mermaid's huge mouth.
