"This is not built by people, is it?" Batu swallowed saliva to moisten his dry throat and asked
We didn’t answer him, and Batu said to himself, "It seems a little impossible if this is really built by people, but you still say these dozens of steps, but it seems that you just dug out the cliff."
I followed what Batu said and found that it was exactly what he said.
The stone ladder in front of us is an extension of the raised stone we are standing now, but after dozens of steps, the cliff is dug out.
The length of the stone ladder is about 2.5 meters, and the height is about 3 meters. That is to say, someone dug a pit with a depth of about 2.5 meters and a height of 3 meters from the stone wall, and several stone ladders were chiseled out at the bottom of the pit.
Even with high efficiency and all kinds of high-tech building tools, it is absolutely impossible to build a stone ladder tunnel on the wall of such a cave. I can imagine who did it for a moment, and I think it is an alien handwriting, which makes sense because of this explanation
"Don’t be silly. Aren’t you going to have a look?" Zheng Xiaomei has seen the world in the end, which is much calmer than Batu and me.
"The wisdom of the ancients is not what you can imagine. Many things our ancestors can do, but we may not be able to do it. This stone ladder is the best proof." We walked on the stone ladder with trepidation. Zheng Xiaomei stroked the stone ladder in front of him and said to himself.
At this time, I am much better than the best. Although my heart is still very shocking, I can control my emotions to some extent.
"It seems that this stone ladder has been used for at least a thousand years. We can’t do it now and we don’t know what our ancestors did," I said.
Batu spat and said, "Anyway, it’s the first time I’ve seen such a terrible and huge project. Even these thousands of stone stairs are more difficult than the Qinghai-Tibet Railway combined!"
"There is no way to compare the two, but this is really terrible. It is a bit beyond the limits of human beings. Now I really hope to come to an end and see what the ancients left." I said with my feet flying and my mouth moving.
"Well, I think you have the same idea. If this great miracle is born, it will not be inferior to the seven wonders of the ancient world!" Zheng Xiaomei also interjected.
"Thanks to Miss Zheng this time, otherwise maybe we will never see such a great place in our life." Batu decisively betrayed me and approached Zheng Xiaomei at this time.
"Hum noon you don’t believe me just now I found the way you don’t believe me that you know is wrong? I have seen the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World with you. "Zheng Xiaomei said to me with Batu’s help, almost with his nostrils pointed at me.
"Well, well, I, Miss Chong, we are not mainly looking for responsibility and showing off. The most important thing is to finish this stone staircase first. I have an intuition that there is a huge secret hidden on the stone staircase," I said.
"You this is not nonsense? If there is no big secret, can you build a stone ladder on this cliff? " Batu’s mouth quickly said it.
"Just you talk!" I nai shook his head and said
Zheng Xiaomei giggled for a while while covering her mouth and said, "I find that you two are really * * with you two."
…………………………
Because the height of the stone staircase is two to three meters, our eyes can never see too far, and at most we can see four or five hundred steps ahead, so we can know where we are now.
In this way, in shock and joy, we walked the stone ladder for two hours, with about 500 steps. We remember that at least 40 or 50 times, it is 20,000 steps. There is no stone ladder that continues four or 500 steps ahead of us.
Chapter 64 Lake
After walking the stone ladder, our eyes suddenly brightened up. This is a place similar to a square, with an area of at least square meters, surrounded by smooth rock walls. Besides the exit of the stone ladder, there is a stone cave two or three meters high at the other end.
The rock wall around the square is very flat, as if it had been taken care of manually. It was not long before we found many murals around the rock wall.
These murals have become somewhat blurred after years of geomantic erosion, but we still see some clues from these murals.
These murals all depict humanoid creatures, but these people have no heads and necks
They worked hard, but one day a huge ball of light fell from the sky and destroyed their quiet life.
The mural painting ended here, and we also walked from the entrance of the stone staircase to the entrance of the other cave.
"These murals are so strange. Why don’t these people have heads?" I asked to myself.
Zheng Xiaomei nodded and replied, "It’s strange that there are many murals in our company, but I’ve never heard of such strange murals. It’s strange that these people can still work without heads!"
"What’s curious about this? Blame me me for looking at it. It’s that the painter had an accident before he finished painting it, so he left this half-finished mural!" Batu said
"Impossible! Each of these murals is separate and it is impossible to learn from you. The only explanation is that these murals are like this. "Zheng Xiaomei immediately retorted.
"Who built such a large-scale building in this tiankeng tunnel?" I knew in my heart that this must be extraordinary. It is impossible for people to build such a long stone ladder on the rock wall. This is where murals are painted.
"Are we still going in?" I pointed to the cave in front of me and asked
"go in! Definitely enter! "
This time Batu and Zheng Xiaomei unexpectedly reached an agreement.
I think so. Since everyone came here and didn’t go in, I’m sorry for myself, but I finally felt interesting and embarrassed. Finally, I blamed these weird wall pictures.
Batu and I led the way, and Zheng Xiaomei followed us closely.
The entrance to this cave looks small, but after walking in, it feels not small at all. The distance is about four or five meters, and the width on both sides is almost four or five meters.
Moreover, the ceiling is curved and the rock wall is very smooth. On the whole, it is similar to those tunnels built in mountainous areas.
I rubbed my hands against the wall of this cave, but I didn’t feel as cold as I thought. The temperature was a bit like human skin.
This tunnel is not long, with a distance of less than 50 meters. Except for the tunnel, our eyes suddenly brightened up again.
In front of us is a lake about the same area as the former square. The lake is dark green and calm. There is a stone platform with an area of three or four square meters in the middle of the lake. Can you see a small wooden box vaguely?
Obviously, I’m not the only one who saw the wooden box. Batu and Zheng Xiaomei are staring at the wooden box with green eyes.
"What’s in it?" Batu asked himself.
"I think what’s in it can explain why such a big project should be built here," Zheng Xiaomei said.
I shook my head and said, "Don’t think about it, you two. The most important question now is how to get there. This lake should be followed by the undercurrent of the river. If I swim there, I can’t guarantee that I won’t be paid away by the secret vortex."
The surface of this lake looks calm, but I am familiar with the geographical environment here. I know that this calm hides nature, and the carnivorous beast will lose its life if it is not careful. Even ants can’t compete with human nature.
Suddenly I saw a narrow path extending around the lake.
"All right, you two stop staring blankly. Look, there’s a road here. Let’s walk over and see if we can find something."
As soon as they heard that there was a road, the two of them suddenly turned to face, and we took this narrow path.
Because this road is really too narrow, and it is built close to the rock wall, the other side just doesn’t know the situation. We walk very carefully before going out for 40 or 50 meters in five minutes.
Just as I was about to continue walking, Batu took back half the steps and stepped back and said, "Stop ahead, there is no road!" "
"Why is there no road ahead?" I asked doubtfully, I looked over here, and the road ahead went all the way to Batu, saying that there was no road.
"It’s true. You can’t see that there is a waterway more than two meters wide in front of us, which cut off our road. I almost fell into the water just now." Batu said very seriously and we could hear a little feeling of dying from his tone.
"Go back quickly." When Batu said it was true, there was no road ahead of us, so I shouted to Zheng Xiaomei
Go back to the place where we came in just now. It was almost seven minutes before we got back to Ann’s place.
My hand carefully followed the road by the lake and I found that there was no waterway cut off, which made me feel a little strange.
When Batu stepped back, his face showed a look of terror and said, "This place is so strange. The waterway was so strange just now. I can’t see anything if I step back. I have to move my head forward a little bit to see it."
"You two wait here for me to go and have a look." To be honest, I still have some doubts in my heart that Batu can’t see the waterway if he takes a step back. How is that possible? In order to confirm what Batu said, I decided to go and see for myself.
Of course Batu knew what I meant, but he didn’t stop him. He just said, "Slow down and don’t worry."
"Be careful, we’ll show you the way," said Zheng Xiaomei.
I nodded without saying anything and turned and walked the path.
This path is very dangerous. I almost cling to the rock wall and dare not move out a little. Because Batu said just now that things are a little mysterious, my speed is much slower than before. It took me more than ten minutes to get to the position just now.
Look, I’ve almost reached the place Batu said. I put my hands in my mouth and put my hands on the rock wall. My whole body slowly leaned forward along the rock wall. I didn’t find the waterway that Batu said before, so I moved my feet forward in small steps.
In this way, I walked almost seven steps little by little, and I saw a shocking scene when I leaned forward again.
The original quiet path was actually cut off by a waterway, which was two meters and five wide, and the water was as calm as the lake.
