Chapter 95 Chains
In addition to myself and myself, those who entered the depths of the cave were also two militiamen led by the militia platoon leader. Suddenly we saw the chain falling vertically into the pool shaking, and we couldn't help but take a few steps back.
There is no wind in this cave, and there are no waves in the pool. How could such a heavy chain shake out of thin air? Is the thing hanging under the pool by the giant chain a living creature? What kind of creature needs to be locked up with such a thick chain?
I glanced at her, and she also had a confused look on her face, and shook her head at me. I have encountered countless adventures in my life, and I have seen some strange and weird things, but facing the water pool under the tunnel and this thick iron chain,
I really can't find any clues. But regarding Professor Sun's whereabouts, I can only risk pulling up the chain to see what's underneath.
At this time, the militiamen began to become nervous. Since ancient times, the people of Santai Land have been fierce. For these militiamen who are from local farmers, they may not retreat if they are faced with enemies with live ammunition, but these people have been around for thousands of years.
The superstitions here are deep-rooted. In addition, before going to the ground, the villagers were talking about everything. We were immersed in the scene. The militiamen were naturally suspicious when they saw this strange situation.
The militia platoon leader said to me: The money is long, and there is probably a monster locked up in this puddle, but we must not be alerted, otherwise our village will suffer. The other two militiamen also said: Yes, yes,
Afraid of trapping the monsters in the Yellow River, do not act rashly to avoid causing disaster.
I listened to the militiamen talking to me, and my eyes were never idle. I had to find some reason to convince the militiamen, otherwise they would all be scared away, leaving only Youji and I with nothing to do.
I looked around at the situation around me. Shibeidian Village is a small basin, not far from the Yellow River. I have never noticed the Feng Shui situation. There will definitely not be any noble tombs here. Although the environment here is very good, it can even be said that it is
It is located in a fairy cave, but there is too much underground water here, so it is impossible for anyone to be stupid enough to build a tomb here.
The wide tunnel and the stone house at the end of the tunnel don't look like tombs. I'm just familiar with ancient tombs and don't know much about other ancient buildings. But the stone bed in the stone house is a bit weird.
There are two types of stone beds, one is called a tomb bed where the coffin of the tomb owner is placed, and the other is called a shrine for displaying artifacts. The one in the stone house is more like a shrine for placing things.
There is a small cave at the mouth of Tankou. It is the end here and there are no branch roads or secret passages. Professor Sun and another archaeological team member must have entered this cave, but there is no trace of them here. Could it be that they were attacked?
What happened? I fell into a pool.
The entire cave has obvious traces of artificial excavation and expansion, and the scale is not very large. Several thick iron chains pass through the roof of the cave and are connected to a reel in the corner. They can obviously be raised and lowered. It seems that the iron chains in the pool can be pulled.
Come up. I reached out and touched the chain. It was indeed made of iron inside, but the outer layer was coated with anti-rust paint, which made it look dark and dull.
Then I saw that the iron chain that had sunk into the pool was still shaking slightly. In this case, it should not be caused by the undercurrent under the pool. There must be something alive. Could it be that the old dragon tied by the iron chain is some kind of giant turtle?
You must not tell those militiamen such things. I suddenly remembered what the blind fortune teller said. That old man was talking nonsense, but it had a miraculous effect on these villagers. I might as well follow suit and use superstitious ideas to deal with superstitious ideas. Anyway, the most urgent task is to
Pull up the things in the pool and find Professor Sun as soon as possible.
So I said to the militiamen with a determined expression: Comrades, the time has come for the motherland and the people to test us. The head can be cut off, the blood can be shed, but the fearless revolutionary spirit cannot be lost. Let's work together to remove the iron chain from the pool.
Pull it out
The militia platoon leader rushed to me and said to me before I could finish my words: Chief Hu, my Chief Hu, you can’t pull me, you can’t pull me. This chain is tied to the old monster in the Yellow River. I don’t dare to do it casually in such a big event.
Do.
To be honest, I didn’t know what I was feeling, but on the surface I tried to act calm and show some sense of wisdom. I said to the militia platoon leader: Comrade platoon leader, don’t you remember what the famous fortune teller said?
Yes? The blind man in your village is the reincarnation of Jiang Taigong Liu Bowen and Zhuge Liang in ancient times. He knew it for eight thousand years before and five hundred years later. He said that this is a fairy cave. I think it is probably right. Because when I was studying ancient materials
I have seen this description before. What fell in this pool must be the incense burner used by Taishang Laojun to make elixirs. There is a panacea in it that will make you immortal and prevent you from all kinds of diseases. We must have discovered these elixirs first. According to international practice, it should be
should
Internationally, it seems that the person who discovers something first has some rights, but I can't remember it at the moment, so I quickly asked what the international practice is.
Tell me: According to international practice, the first person to appear has the right to name it.
As soon as I heard that it was okay to just name people, I then said to the militiamen: Comrades, do you understand the naming rights? I pointed to one of the militiamen: For example, brother, if your name is Li Dazhuang, then as long as you are willing, the elixir we have invented can be called Dazhuang.
Strong elixir. Once our country's scientific researchers mass-produce this elixir to benefit the people, we will have made a great contribution to the party and the people. In addition, the most important thing is that it is first come, first served. The five of us are the first to show up.
, everyone can try a few pills first, I have the final say on this matter.
The three militiamen made me dizzy with their talk. The three of them looked at me and I looked at you. One of them believed what the blind man said when he was on top. The other two admired the vanity of establishing achievements. The three of them were so
Who doesn’t want to take a handful of the elixir of immortality? But there is still a concern that has not been eliminated. Since what is hanging down from the iron chain is Taishang Laojun’s elixir furnace, why does the iron chain shake from time to time?
I secretly thought that something was wrong, the nights were long and I had many dreams, and if I let these militiamen guess, my lie would no longer be true: Why does this iron chain move? Yes, it moves because of the flow of the elixir in the furnace.
Ah, this kind of elixir that can cure you of all diseases after taking it. Do you think it is as black and smelly as the traditional Chinese medicine pills? Each elixir has spirituality. After all, it is not an ordinary thing in the world.
The militiamen nodded after hearing my words, thinking that this made sense. It seemed that the thing tied to the chain was not a spirit in the Yellow River, but must be Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace, so they all rolled up their sleeves and prepared to take action.
The militia platoon leader suddenly thought of something, walked up to me, and whispered a few words into my ear. After hearing this, I smiled and said to him: Comrade platoon leader, don't worry, there is no disease that cannot be cured by the magic pill.
As far as you are concerned, this is nothing. This elixir is specially designed to treat yang. It does not lift, does not firm, does not last long, does not ejaculate, does not become thick, does not become abundant, and does not
The other two militiamen laughed loudly as they listened, which made the militia platoon leader blush a little and yelled at the two men: They laugh so hard that they can work quickly.
Feeling a little unsafe, he whispered to me: Lao Hu, I think the things tied by iron chains in the pool are some living things, so he just pulled them out so recklessly, right?
I took advantage of the militiamen to go over and prepare to turn the rocker, so I said to her: Don't you still trust me? Just don't worry, I only have one life like you, how can you make fun of our safety? I have seen so many situations and rationalized it.
, I have never seen it. Looking at the Feng Shui situation here, I dare to guarantee with my head that there will never be any ancient tombs, so there is no need to worry about rice dumplings. Moreover, the natural environment here is unique, and it is not a deep mountain forest.
There won't be any ferocious beasts; even if there were, they would be tied up with iron chains, and we have rifles to defend ourselves, so we have nothing to fear from them. If Professor Sun is down there, and we delay in taking action, wouldn't we waste his life?
, of course, I'm afraid it's too late to take action now, so just leave it to fate.
He said: It’s not that I’m not worried about you, it’s that you’ve never done anything to make me feel reassured. Why don’t you speak well to those villagers, but talk about the elixir of immortality? I think you are better than that blind fortune teller.
Just in case, there is no elixir after lifting the chain. Let me see how you explain it to them.
I said to her: I'm not as blind as the old man. He can figure things out and talk nonsense. Now I have no choice. Otherwise, those militiamen are unwilling to die. I don't think so.
The winch can only be turned by three or more people, but it can't be turned by just the two of us. If there is no elixir later, you have to help me smooth things over and don't let me be in trouble alone.
The militia platoon leader finished preparations and greeted me at the side. We stopped talking and stuck the torches by the pool. We each held rifles, pulled the bolts, and waved to the militia platoon leader: do it.
The militia platoon leader led two other militiamen to turn the reel, like fetching water from a well, and rolled up a circle of iron chains on the winch. Unexpectedly, the mechanical principle between the winch and the reel chain was designed very cleverly.
, it doesn’t take three people at all, just one person can slowly roll the chain into the winch with 80% of the strength.
As the iron chain sunk into the pool rose, my hands and the others' hands were sweating. We would soon find out whether the thing under the pool was alive or something else, and our moods couldn't help but grow.
The iron chain slowly rose and was lifted up.
The iron chain was rolled up for more than ten meters, and only a fraction of the water in the pool was visible, and something dark emerged from the pool.
The militia platoon leader shouted: My ancestors are really being choked by what Chief Hu said. I'm afraid they are really the furnace where Taishang Laojun burns elixirs. Book Alliance
