Chapter 136 43 Ancient City Tower and Vehicle Wreckage [Two in One]

Chapter 136 43. Ancient city towers and vehicle wreckage [two-in-one]

"What's so strange about this thing? Why should it be destroyed once it appears?" Zheng Yun asked hurriedly.

Ji Dao spoke in Chinese, and the white rescue team members couldn't understand, so he didn't hide his question.

"I'm not sure about this either. There is no detailed record in the ancient books of Haiwei, but logically speaking, this thing shouldn't exist here. It was completely destroyed a long time ago."

"I think this sound is a bit similar, but I'm not sure, because I haven't heard this kind of cry, it's just very similar to the record, or it may be that my guess is wrong. It should be frozen to death by the low temperature in this place."

Ji Dao shook his head repeatedly.

"Any other ideas?" Zheng Yun asked again.

"It could also be a person, a person with some problems with the tongue and throat." Ji Dao quickly put forward another guess.

"This gap looks like it was made by someone, maybe it was made by the scientific expedition team." Hu Ruihua suddenly spoke.

Others looked at the gap.

It is indeed the case. There are some traces of ice saws in the gap. Although there is no broken ice on the ground, it is very likely that they fell in and were pushed into the rift.

"It seems that they really came here, and they are obviously prepared and know what is underneath."

Hu Zi said softly.

Everyone was silent and thinking.

This matter is complicated and confusing, and the danger is getting higher and higher. It is hard to imagine what is in this rift.

"Be more vigilant, this is not simple." Zheng Yun sighed lightly. It is not appropriate to retreat now. Go forward a little further. If there is really something strange, then retreat.

The archaeological team 20 years ago obviously went deeper and was trapped somewhere. The probability of sudden accidents and deaths is not very high.

After a rest.

Everyone took action again.

They drove several ice nails into the ice valley, went deep into the ice layer, and then put ropes on them and connected them with the locks on everyone.

Even if something happened, they could come back.

After that, they set out again, entered the rift from this gap, and stepped on a narrow path that was only one meter wide.

"Isn't this the city wall corridor?" Hu Zi glanced around and suddenly turned to look at Ji Dao.

This narrow path is almost the same as the interlayer at the top of the ice crack that we saw before.

"Left or right?" Hu Ruihua asked.

"The sound came from the left, and the sound of knocking on the ice was also on the left." Ji Dao did not decide, but just described the situation.

"Looking at the traces on the ground, it seems to have gone to the left." Zheng Yun scanned the rift with a flashlight.

There is a river at the bottom of the rift, with a slow flow of water mixed with some broken ice, and steep white ice walls on both sides. There may be rock walls inside, but they are not visible at present.

Look to the left.

This path is also curved, and you can't see the end at a glance, but there seem to be several gaps and forks in the middle.

It is somewhat similar to the video 20 years ago.

After confirming the direction, everyone stepped onto the road one by one, moving slowly towards the left hand direction. This time, the ghost general walked in front, and he had already drawn his sword. Hu Zi was the second one holding a pistol, ready to take action at any time.

They were like a string of ants strung together by a rope, slowly moving forward on the steep ice wall. Fortunately, there was no wind in this rift valley. Although they walked slowly, every step was very steady.

They walked about 300 meters.

The first fork appeared.

The footprints on the ground showed that the scientific expedition team did not take this fork, but continued to move forward. Everyone looked to the left and saw that this fork was actually a cave with a small area inside.

Continue to walk forward.

The ghost general suddenly turned his head to look at the rift valley below, and Hu Zi followed closely, shining the flashlight into the depths, but saw a body floating out of the glacier at the deepest part of the rift valley.

"Look below!"

Hu Zi took a breath and whispered.

The others then reacted and shone their flashlights. The body was wearing professional cold-proof clothing and was face down in the ice water. The gender and appearance could not be seen. All they knew was that he was a modern person and floated out from the front.

But they could roughly extract some information.

This person should have died not long ago. There was no ice on his body and he was holding an ice pick in his hand. It was very likely that he fell from somewhere and was frozen to death.

In this situation, they could not intercept the body at all. They could only watch the body float downstream from their eyes.

"Be careful."

Zheng Yun reminded again.

The group set out again. After about 300 meters, a cave appeared on the left again. Two caves in a row made people wonder whether this place was man-made.

Then the road began to turn and turned left along the trend of the rift. Just after turning, Zheng Yun and the others heard the sound of knocking on the ice wall, just in front!

The flashlight shone towards the source of the sound.

A city wall suddenly appeared in front of them!

This city wall is 30 to 40 meters high, stretching across the rift valley. It is made entirely of huge stones. There is also an oriental tower on top of the city wall, which is somewhat damaged but intact overall!

This scene is too scary.

Such an oriental ancient building is quietly hidden in the dark rift valley. They suddenly illuminate it with a flashlight. Without any psychological preparation, everyone's heart trembles.

The flashlight light source cannot illuminate the entire scene, but by scanning from left to right, it can be roughly seen that this city wall is in the style of the late Ming Dynasty, and it is no more than two hundred years old!

In addition, the gate of this city wall was wide open, like a dam at this time, and the broken glacier flowed out from the gate.

"What's going on?" Hu Zi looked back at Zheng Yun. He had never heard Zheng Yun say that there was a city wall.

"Ji Dao, what do you think?" Zheng Yun looked at Ji Dao. He had to speak first on this matter.

"I haven't heard of it. Why would a city wall be built here? What is there in this place that needs a city wall to guard it?" Ji Dao's eyebrows twisted, and it seemed that he really didn't know, and he was also very confused.

"Then come closer and see."

Zheng Yun asked the ghost general to stride forward.

The people in front of them continued to move forward, and the people behind them could go around the corner. The three people in the white rescue team just saw the city area and exclaimed softly that they didn't expect this scene.

But in a moment.

Everyone walked to the top of the city wall. The city wall was about 150 meters below their feet, across this rift, more than 90 meters long and 20 meters wide, completely sealing the rift, leaving only the city gate for the glacier to pass through.

The tower on the city wall has four floors, with pointed eaves and a solemn style. It belongs to a high-level late Ming style tower.

Looking at the city wall up close, they were even more shocked, because it was hard for them to imagine where these huge stones for building the city wall came from. Could they be mined from the ground?

"I didn't see any traces of fighting. This tower doesn't seem to have experienced any war. So what is it used for?"

Ji Dao murmured in his mouth.

If he couldn't understand it with his knowledge, others would be blind, but Zheng Yun had a vague feeling.

The previous speculation was confirmed.

There must be a shocking secret in this place, and it is so important that even the ancient books of the Heavenly Palace cannot record it. As for the map of the Immortal Palace of Immortality, it should be different in age.

But the age gap does not mean that the map of the Immortal Palace of Immortality is useless. At least it records the Earth Hole and the Cold Immortal Cave.

The ancients built a city wall in this place, which must be related to the Earth Hole and the Cold Immortal Cave. It may be to guard against something, but it may also be to use the Earth Hole and the Cold Immortal Cave.

Recalling the former Sea Guard rebel Zhang Kuixi, he was able to use the characteristics of the Jade Xun to command the sea monsters and forcibly built a monster-pregnant tower in the foggy island reef.

Let's talk about the Hades Pavilion. The size of the underground pavilion and the attic is not much smaller than this city wall. It was built in the tropical rainforest, and it took a lot of manpower and material resources.

These people can do it.

The real Sea Guard must be able to do it.

And if the Sea Guard really wants to guard or use a place of gods and ghosts, it means that this place is not ordinary.

However, it is not certain whether this place is built by the real Sea Guard. Maybe it is a rebel or a vassal king. It can only be said that the ancient Orientals have this ability.

"There should be more than one tower in this city. There should be more in front." Ji Dao raised the flashlight and swept forward.

But it was not clear.

There was nothing at least a kilometer ahead.

"Let's go." Zheng Yun asked the ghost general to move forward again, and everyone tied ropes and moved forward cautiously.

There are obvious footprints on the ground along the way. The expedition team members are wearing ice spikes, and the white spots on the ground are traces.

After going deep into the ground for hundreds of meters.

A gap appeared on the left hand side.

This is another artificial gap, but it is very old and was dug from the outside.

Everyone walked out of the gap and looked around.

It was still an open-air ice valley with steep slopes on three sides, and there was also a gap at the end of the ice valley. This was obviously a "robber's hole", and it was dug more accurately than the expedition team.

They dug directly into the city wall.

"There's a car!" Hu Zi suddenly ran to the corner, pulled out an ice pick and pulled away the white snow, revealing several iron frames.

This turned out to be a burned off-road vehicle! Most of them were frozen in the ice layer, with only a small frame exposed.

A quick look around.

There were as many as seven or eight vehicles!

Zheng Yun's pupils shrank. This was the place where the archaeological team burned their snowmobiles 20 years ago! Looking around, you can still see some traces of life in the ice valley.

"How did this car get in? And why was it burned?" The people of the white rescue team were even more confused.

"Did it come in from the opposite gap?" The captain of the white team took a flashlight and walked towards the gap on the other side.

Hu Ruihua and his team immediately followed. This question was also very critical. If there was an exit, they could retreat in time.

But the result was very strange.

The gap turned out to be a deep ice cave, with a dead end inside. It was connected to the entire iceberg. It was impossible to smash it through, and it was impossible for the car to drive in.

"Fuck, what's going on?"

Hu Zi's scalp was numb and he immediately looked around, trying to find another way out of the mountain, but no matter how he looked at it, the three sides of this triangular ice valley were too steep.

The ice valley was very large.

But this terrain was obviously a gap between several icebergs. Unless the snowmobile rushed down from the mountain almost vertically, it was impossible for a car to get in.

"Could it be hoisted in by a helicopter?" Hu Ruihua also rarely began to speculate without any reason.

It was really too weird.

The rock path they came in on was only one meter wide, and even the gods could not drive a car in.

And it is absolutely impossible that this road was originally several meters wide and later became one meter wide.

Because the city wall is dead.

The width of the city wall limits the width of the rock path, and who dares to drive on such a steep rock path?

"What is the point of the helicopter crane coming in? Did the car fall from the mountain?"

Hu Zi looked up at the iceberg.

"No need to guess, it should have been blocked by someone, and this gap was filled later." Zheng Yun suddenly spoke.

He had seen the video of the car burning 20 years ago. The group of people did not say a word, holding torches and hurriedly burning the car, and even used gasoline, hoping that the fire would be bigger.

Although no one spoke in the video.

I don't know why they did this, but their desperate expressions and demeanor can be seen from the video. They definitely chose to burn the car because they had no way out.

Combined with what Song Wan said before, some people suspected that the accident 20 years ago was related to the Orientals. It was the Orientals who harmed them and made them die in the valley.

If this is true, and there is really a third party intervening in this matter, then a simple conclusion can be drawn.

The gap on the opposite side was opened at first. The archaeological team 20 years ago opened the gap on the opposite side very accurately and drove into here through this gap.

Then they made another gap on this side, directly hitting the inside of the city wall, and for some unknown purpose, got off the car and entered this gap to explore.

As a result, when they came back again,

But they found that the gap on the opposite side was blocked.

They must have tried to open the gap again, but after a long time, they only found a deep cave. The previous way disappeared inexplicably and they couldn't get out.

Then the snowmobile was useless.

And if this is the case.

Then their only way out is to walk through the rift valley and return along the narrow rock wall path in one breath.

They are likely to be lost.

Or they are deliberately trapped here by "some people".

In the end, the last video happened. A group of people squatted in a small ice cave, relying on burning ancient building wood for warmth, and quarreled fiercely. The person who filmed it left a painful last word.

Zheng Yun remembered it very clearly.

There were more than a dozen people in the last video.

It was pitch black outside the ice cave. The people in the cave had a bonfire and quarreled around the bonfire. What was burning in the fire were the beams and columns of oriental buildings, as well as brackets and carved beams.

When they quarreled, they said that their group had been trapped in the ice cave for more than ten days and had no hope of getting out. The three groups of people who went out to explore the way did not come back, and they might have died.

They are basically the same.

But they may not have demolished the ancient city tower. The place where they died in the end may be deeper.

"Fixed?" Hu Zi was stunned. How can this thing be patched? Use a brick wall to build it up?

"It doesn't matter." Zheng Yun shook his head. Whether the gap is blocked or not, it has no effect.

The problem now is that history has repeated itself. Twenty years later, another scientific expedition team of 40 people came and dug a gap here like digging a "trap hole".

And they died again.

But this time there was no "Oriental" to "interfere" with them. They just came here, and they were dead before they could do anything. The bodies flowed out along the glacier...
