Huahu is responsible for exploring the path, and the others don't have much objection. They all know that this kind of terrain is very suitable for him to perform.
Hu Bayi was worried that Huahu would go down alone and be alone if something unexpected happened, so he said, "How about I go with the Huahu brothers, so that we can take care of each other."
He still didn't give up his idea. After this period of contact, he more or less understood Chen Ziyan's two words.
Knowing that they do not compromise on the execution of orders, they can be called perfect tool men, but they are real novices in terms of independent ability and response to emergencies.
He was worried that Huahu might miss something if he went alone, so he felt that he still had to go there.
"That's okay." Chen Ziyan did not refuse.
Hu Bayi is not a flower in the greenhouse. He has experienced a lot of life and death. This problem is not difficult for him. Since he is willing to go down, let’s go together.
He also felt that he might have found something on the rock wall. If Huahu went there by himself, he might not be able to find it.
Immediately, without any delay, this person fixed the climbing rope and swung down one after another.
Chen Ziyan and the others stood on the edge of the cliff, using searchlights to illuminate the two fallen people.
But what they didn't expect was that after falling more than thirty meters, Hu Bayi suddenly stopped, and at the same time, his voice came from below.
"Master Chen, come down too. There is a ladder on the rock wall below."
Staircase?
The first time he heard Hu Bayi's words, Chen Ziyan held up a searchlight and shined it towards the edge of the cliff in front of him, but he could not find the existence of the stairs. It seemed that the stairs did not lead directly here.
But he didn’t think too much. After once again confirming the following situation, he took the others down.
During the fall, Chen Ziyan discovered that the rock wall was not as steep as he thought. It only looked that way when looking down from the previous angle. In other words, only the top two or three meters were as smooth as a mirror, and the rock below was as smooth as a mirror. The wall has lots of bumpy spots to put your feet on.
With the help of these footholds, their descent process was not only faster, but also reduced many unnecessary dangers.
For example, Fatty Wang, whose calves are a little shaky, would have to rely on his hands to get down if there was no easily predictable landing spot.
After arriving at Hu Bayi’s location, Chen Ziyan immediately saw the staircase he was talking about. This was a stone staircase cut directly from the rock wall, with a width of about one meter. Although there are some defects at the edges, it is completely suitable for one person to walk.
Slowly go down this stone staircase, and you can see some spells and marks from time to time along the way. There are many eyeball patterns in these things.
However, this stone step did not reach the bottom of the cliff as expected. After walking for almost thirty minutes, Chen Ziyan and the others once again appeared in front of a frozen soil tunnel.
But they have no other choice, because there are mountains on all sides, and the only way to go is the tunnel in front of them.
There is an indescribable coldness in the dark and narrow permafrost tunnel, which makes people walking inside feel like they are walking on the road leading to the depths of hell.
Fortunately, the rest of the journey was peaceful. It felt like an illusion. They didn't encounter any accidents until they walked out of the tunnel and reached the real bottom of the cliff.
However, after walking out of the frozen soil tunnel, no one cared about this tunnel anymore. Their attention was completely attracted by the scene in front of them.
The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was the countless fluorescent lights. The faint halo of light shone on the rugged underground river, as if looking backwards at the Milky Way. Even Chen Ziyan had to admit that the scene in front of him was like seeing the Milky Way underground.
Especially in the underground river, there are many crystals, as well as jellyfish and other luminous creatures. The contrast between the two scenes is quite a blurry and dreamlike feeling!
After being stunned for a few seconds, Chen Ziyan, who was the first to recover, raised his hand holding the searchlight. When the beam of light shone around, he could clearly see the environment where he and others were now.
They are now on the edge of a river valley, with a slowly flowing underground river in front of them.
There are some remains of broken wood not far away. It seems that many years ago, there was a wooden bridge across the river there, but it could not withstand the erosion of the years and had already collapsed.
This is a good thing. At least the appearance of the ruins means that they did not go the wrong way.
After taking a short rest, the group began to move forward along the underground river. It didn't take long for them to encounter an exposed iceberg crystal stone vein.
The glacier crystal stone emits light blue fluorescence, giving this area some weak visibility even if there is no light.
This time they didn't go far when they saw a cave.
In the center of the cave floor is an ancient stone platform. On the stone platform is a black humanoid wooden statue more than a foot tall. However, only the rough outline of the wooden statue remains, and the specific appearance cannot be seen clearly. In the corner of the cave There was also a pile of cow heads and bones.
“Is this an altar?” Chen Ziyan looked at Hu Bayi.
If you have any doubts about this matter, you are right to ask Lao Hu.
“This seems to be a sacrificial ceremony for some kind of evil god, but I don’t know much about the system of gods in the snowy area, so I can’t tell which one it is.” Hu Bayi was a little unsure. said.
Many things in Tantric Buddhism are very different, so it is difficult for him to make a conclusion.
"This should be left by the Reincarnation Sect." Shirley Yang thought for a while and said.
She doesn’t know much about this stuff, but she has studied a lot about snowy areas, so she derived this answer through the pile of bones in the corner.
Although the status of the yak is very respected, the Demon Kingdom does not have the habit of using this thing for sacrifice, so the only one who arranged this place was the Samsara Sect.
"It seems that this thing has no research value. Let's continue walking in." Chen Ziyan nodded.
The reason why he asked Hu Bayi was to see if he could make any unexpected discoveries.
Since there is none now, there is no need to waste time here.
Hearing what Chen Ziyan said, Wang Kaixuan immediately looked into the depths of the cave and saw a large number of transparent crystals inside, covering the entire wall. There was nothing that could be done about it. Seeing the depth clearly gives people a very tortuous and deep feeling.
Although it is a bit strange, it does not look like a place where wild beasts roam.
Wang Kaixuan immediately took the initiative to explore the path, and came back after a while and said: "There is a crystal passage behind this, and it looks quite deep."
He said he was exploring the path, but in fact I didn't dare to go too deep, just walked about twenty meters.
