Chapter 140 – The Black Vortex

The dark green water grotto where “King Xian’s Tomb” is located, its topography, in geography, is truly called “funnel”, the formation of which can only be attributed to two reasons, one is the strong water flow washed out the dissolved rock caverns, resulting in a large area of spoilage; and the second, perhaps, was caused by the impact of a falling meteorite hundreds of millions of years ago. Is in hundreds of millions of years ago, the impact of the falling meteorite to.

I carry two headless half insect people, from the steep wall tumbling down, this time with psychological preparation, although the body quickly in the air falling, but the hands are not idle for a moment, will be on the mountaineering helmet diving goggles cover to the eyes, off behind the two headless bodies, took a deep breath, will be the mouth open, in order to avoid being from a high place into the water of the huge impact of the pressure of the ear drums.

Just want to stretch out the body completely, to a flying fish into the water, but did not wait to do it, the body has fallen to the water surface, the shoulders and head first into the water, was a huge impact on the water a beat, the viscera and the six prone to turn over a few times, only to feel that the chest cavity in the blood, sweet throat, practicing martial arts people often say that “the chest is like a well, the back is like a cake,” the back is more fragile than the front chest, my heart is more fragile. Chest, more fragile, I know very well in my heart, although this fell into the water, but not ready to enter the water posture, back first into the water, may have suffered internal injuries.

Fortunately, the pool is deep enough, although the force of the water, but did not poke to the bottom of the pool, with countless white splashes straight down a few meters before stopping, I opened my eyes to see, this pool of water, although it looks deep turquoise on top, but being in the water, I feel that the water is clear to the bottom, the sunlight shines on the water surface, the bright flash of green light ripples, as if coming to a crystal palace, there are countless fish in the pool, many of which are cracked-bellied carp, the meat flavor of this fish! This fish is delicious, unparalleled in the world, and it is difficult to see such a fat idle.

But I do not have time to reminisce at the moment, not long ago passed through the Dali eat big head of split-bellied carp, anxious to float to the surface of the pool side of the “stacks” on the rendezvous fat man and Shirley Yang two people, at the moment, they will be divided into two hands, to the surface of the water to swim to.

But the hands and feet step, half a day also do not see moving place, which only felt in a whirlpool in the submerged current, this pool of water is crystal clear, in the water and even the bottom of the pool of watercress can be seen clearly, not far from me out of the bottom of the pool, but there is a huge black prototype, the reason why it looks black is because of the depth of the pool is a huge vortex, driven by the pool of submerged water, the pool of water will be pumped into it endlessly.

It is because the bottom of the pool has such a big vortex, so the waterfalls always pour down day and night, it is difficult to fill the water pool, Kangba Kunlun’s frozen springs under the big vortex, it is said to be 10,000 miles away from the East China Sea, so the vortex in the pool may also be a large water eye, leading to the rivers, lakes and seas and other large rivers and large water, this possibility is by no means absent.

If was swept into the whirlpool, I’m afraid no one can give me a corpse, thought of this heart suddenly hit a sudden sudden, hastily make all the strength to the whirlpool outside the swim, but want to speed is not enough, the more anxious hands and feet more stiff, not only did not swim to the periphery, but instead was driven by the undercurrent, from the bottom of the pool of the whirlpool and close to a few meters.

From the time I closed my breath into the water to now, but more than ten seconds, the air in the lungs can still maintain a while, but if the whirlpool of the dark current sucked in here, not much longer, the breath exhausted, it is difficult to be spared, will certainly be swept into the depths of the vortex.

However, at this time I have no choice, completely unable to resist the strong suction of the vortex, in an instant has been swept to the bottom of the pool by the surging dark current, in a panic, I saw a dense clump of water plants beside me, this large area of water plants are also being driven by the edges of the vortex submerged current, all in one direction to the side of the head, the water plants are growing in the bottom of the pool in the rock crevice, the rock crevice gap is very narrow, it is difficult to reach in with your fingers.

I was like seeing a straw, hurry to grab those water plants, want to make their bodies temporarily fixed, otherwise even one meter away from the vortex, will no longer come out, but should be the fat man often said that, catch up with the goldsmiths burning incense, even the Buddha are off the buttocks, it is not easy to grab a handful of grass, who knows that the grass has a lot of mayfly eggs, slippery, and hard to grab it even clutched an empty.

I aimed at the large clumps of water plants, reaching out several times in a row, did not catch, not once grabbed the empty, the heart will follow the sinking of a section, has been unable to count this is the first time today to face the test of life and death, casually pulled out the Russian paratroopers knife, inverted and inserted into the growth of the water only in the stone cracks, paratroopers knife blade hooks at this time played a vital role in the blade is fixed in the water plants at the root of the stone cracks of the junction.

This piece of the bottom of the pool bar-shaped boulder, seems to be man-made chiseling, may be the construction of “King Xian’s Tomb” when the fall, due to the heavy stone, so not sucked into the vortex, I finally found a place to be able to fix, and do not dare to have any slowness, grasping the bar of the rock at the bottom of the pool to the far end of the crawl, and gradually out of the suction range of the vortex.

Suddenly feel the touch in the hand is not right, cold and hard, seems to be a layer of heavy steel shell, born with a large number of spots peeling rust, through the blue waves of flashing water light, see this stone, the end of the end of a huge column connected to the bottom of the pool, fell horizontally, above all the turquoise grass, a group of small fish in the grass weaving and swimming, appearing to be this large column is also green.

Long full of water grass huge column end slightly tilted, hit into the pool side of the stone wall, even broke a big hole, hole in the black, as if another cave, my mind moved: “yes, is buried by us that bomber pilot, the original bomber was crashed in this pool, he parachuted into the edge of the Chalong Mountain, unfortunately by the high priest’s jade coffin entangled and died in vain at the edge of the dense forest.”

It was because that pilot was wearing the uniform of a bomber crew member that we judged it to be two different things from the transport plane that crashed into the tree, Shirley Yang described this bug valley as the Hundred Curtains Triangle of Yunnan, the graveyard of airplanes, and there were two large airplanes that we saw, and I don’t know how many more we didn’t see.

And then look at that was hit by the nose through the stone wall, broken grottoes, hidden a lot of beasts of stone, this direction is just above the deep pool, built in the cliffs in the Tomb of the King in the top of the palace to one, is it “dedication to the King’s Tomb” of the underground palace has been crashed by the plane broke?

I have stayed underwater for more than a minute, can not stay, had to quickly float up to change air, head out of the water, will be over the 10,000 rainbow light shaking eyes blurred, hard plastic mountaineering helmet, although there are drainage holes, used to dive when the protection of the head, and to reduce the resistance of the water current, but still feel very heavy, had to take off the mountaineering helmets for the time being.

Funnel-shaped pool of unique terrain, like a huge natural megaphone, the sound of the waterfall group of water flow transmission back and forth, only in this wall within the roar echo, in this can not hear anything, I saw the high “trestle”, there are two silhouettes running down quickly, encountered by the waterfall washed out the remnants of the road, will use the vines to directly to the The fat man and Shirley Yang, they come down again quickly, is not as fast as I fell down directly.

In the waterfall rushing place, it is close by, put the mouth post on each other’s ears to speak, may not be able to hear clearly, we are separated by dozens of meters of distance, I simply give up shouting, will be climbing helmet into the hand, in the water on the surface of the water to them to wave their arms.

The dark green pool of water floated up a person, in the wall looks down from a height, very eye-catching, sure enough, Fatty and Shirley Yang immediately found me, but also in the “trestle” on the wave at me.

I tilted my head up, around the wall like axe and knife cutting like straight, round blue sky, high and then up, out of reach, suddenly have the fear of being trapped in a desperate situation, that a large number of half insect people are retreating to the waterfall side of the cave, may be because this is the main mausoleum of the King’s Tomb area, with a large number of “broken insect road”, so they can not adapt to the “funnel”, so they can not adapt to the “funnel”. They can’t adapt to the environment in the “funnel”, and are retreating like a tide, but these freaks are very capable of adapting to the environment, I don’t know if they will come back, but they can finally calm down and take a breather for the time being.

I to the “trestle” on the Shirley Yang and fat man gestures, indicating that they do not need to come down to pick me up, I can climb up, let him two to “dedicate the king’s tomb” on the top of the bright building treasure and so on me.

However, those two people as if they did not understand, jumping and shouting at me, pointing desperately, seems to be very anxious, although I can not hear the content of their shouting, but from their actions can be understood, in the depths of the water pool, there is a lurking danger in the approach to me, I immediately with the speed of the swimming competition to hit the line, quickly swim to the edge of the pool of “stacks I immediately swam towards the “trestle” at the edge of the pool with the speed of a swimming competition.

Fatty and Shirley Yang see me will, immediately rushed down the “trestle”, fat fear of height, can only along the wide stone steps down, encountered a break before pouting buttocks a little rub down, and Shirley Yang is almost a layer of layer down, the more they are in such a hurry, the more I am aware of their own situation is how dangerous.

Good from the pool side of the “trestle” is very close, a moment to, I am exhausted, make the last few points of strength, climbed the “trestle” of the stone, but still feel not too stable, and up a few steps, before sitting on the ground can not stop gasping for breath, look at that! The turquoise pool water, flat as a mirror, only the opposite side of the waterfall stirred up a circle of ripples, really can not see what is sinister, at most, there are a lot of people who were beaten into the head broken through the intestines, fell into the bottom of the water, it is estimated to be swept into the vortex, although their blood is toxic, but the number is limited, after all, into the water will be diluted, and the pool of water under the eye of the water, the water exchange is very large, and then more venom in the pool is also flowing It can’t be stopped.

At this time Shirley Yang has rushed down, see me nothing, only then peace of mind, I would like to ask her what is going on, but the sound of the water here is too loud, there is no way to talk to communicate, so I pointed to the wall on the “dedication of the King’s Tomb Treasure Top”, where it seems to be relatively safe, and temporarily there to rest and recuperate, at present the capital weight loss is not small, had to rest until nightfall, overnight to do it. Rest until dark, and then do it at night, anyway, there is no difference between day and night in the ancient tomb palace.

Raised his eyes and looked at the dangerous cliffs on the palace, is the rainbow light in the water emits a strange color, such as a dream and like a fantasy, for a moment can not do more thinking, at the same time, they will step on the thousand years of the ancient trestle, to the “heavenly palace” forward.

Dial vine to find the road, the more line the higher, funnel-shaped terrain to the sound are sucked downward, walked to the high place, the sound of the water has not felt how big, I can not help but ask Shirley Yang: “just now you are so alarmed, in the end, see what?”
