At dusk, Ye Qiong told the five soldiers here some things, and then rode Daidai back through the passage.
Three days later, in the Dinglong Mountains, above the waterfall.
More than a dozen warriors worked together to lower a giant vine that was coiled together toward the waterfall.
Ten wooden stakes are firmly fixed on the ground, so that the vines at the top of this side do not have to worry about escaping from the point of strength.
But just in case, Ye Qiong asked the soldiers to dig a pit one meter wide and two meters deep at the edge of the waterfall, and then erected two large pipes one meter directly and three and a half meters high in it. wooden stakes.
After the pit was sealed with soil, the vines were not tied directly to the two wooden stakes, but passed directly through the middle.
Wooden boards were nailed directly between the two wooden piles.
If the five wooden piles accidentally break, the wooden piles on this side will take effect immediately. Those spreading vines are all knotted at the top, that is, they are made into small bulges that gather together. Once together, the cross-section will be so large that it will be impossible to pass between the two wooden piles.
After continuing to work for a whole day, two giant vines appeared on the waterfall.
It extends all the way to the ground.
Warriors with good psychological quality can now climb directly from the ground.
However, if you climb up from below, the physical requirements for the soldiers are still very high.
Two giant vines, one on the left and one on the right, were close to the edge of the black hole, now waiting for Ye Qiong and the soldiers to enter the black hole and explore.
Ye Qiong was still not in a hurry to go down. Instead, he built a small base on the waterfall and asked the forest ape to help transport some supplies.
Although the vine has been put down now, it is still hanging in the middle, so it will swing.
The weather has been pretty good these days, and there's not much wind, so you can't see the vines swaying for the time being.
But once a blizzard comes, it will be more troublesome. Once the vines sway, as the frequency fluctuates, they will slowly gather energy. When the time comes, the wooden piles on it may not be able to withstand it.
So Ye Qiong had to find a way to fix these two vines on the stone wall of the waterfall.
Now how to fix it has become a problem. After all, it is a stone wall and it is difficult to dig. If you use ordinary wooden stakes, you will not be able to get in at all.
Ye Qiong first asked the soldiers to build a dozen wooden stakes under the waterfall, and then wrapped the vines around them. Now the vines at the upper and lower ends are directly tightened.
The middle position just passed through the black hole. At that time, Ye Qiong and the soldiers could get down directly from the vines and walk in.
The soldiers were divided into two waves and were busy at the top and bottom of the waterfall.
Ye Qiong is now at the top of the waterfall, and he has thought of a way to fix the vines in the middle, but the prerequisite is that he must first enter the black hole and then start fixing it from the inside.
The weather has been very good these days, but Ye Qiong also knows very well that there is not much time left. Otherwise, there may be a snowstorm here in a few days. Once it starts snowing, it can take as little as a week or as much as a month. , there will always be snow falling in the sky, accompanied by a cold wind.
It will be really hard to go on by then.
Ye Qiong found some of the best Qiongqi warriors here and planned to take them down to see the situation.
Everything inside the black hole is unknown to Ye Qiong. Ye Qiong doesn't plan to go too deep. He still has to fix the vines on both sides first.
If after entering, you find that the black hole is of little value, there is no need to continue to waste time.
Now that the upper and lower ends of the vine are fixed, as long as there is no snowstorm, the vine is still very strong.
Ye Qiong took the soldiers, took some barrel grease lamps, and some necessary supplies. He put a safety hemp rope on himself and each soldier, and began to climb down the vines.
After crawling down for more than two hundred meters, Ye Qiong took the lead in arriving at the entrance of the black hole. Ye Qiong first stuck his head in and waved his hands to the soldiers above to ask them to stop.
A total of seven Qiongqi warriors stopped immediately, waiting for Ye Qiong's next instructions.
Inside the black hole, wherever Ye Qiong looked, there were stone walls. After arriving, Ye Qiong discovered that the black hole was slightly larger than he thought, with a diameter of about five meters.
It is not a complete circle. There is a platform at the bottom, and the traces of manual excavation can be clearly seen.
It's noon now, and the light is very strong, so Ye Qiong can still see relatively far away.
Deep inside the cave, the platform extended directly for about fifty meters and then disappeared, but a bifurcation could be seen, leading to the left and right sides.
And on the stone wall in the middle that blocks the view, there seems to be some writing and totems...
Fifty meters away, inside the cave again, it was already a little dark. Although Ye Qiong's eyesight was very good, he could only vaguely see things on the wall.
The specific words and drawings are completely unclear now.
Ye Qiong sniffed sharply and smelled it. He didn't smell any strange smell, so he bowed to the soldiers above him and got down first.
After untying the safety rope, Ye Qiong looked down first. He was still very high and could see far away.
After telling the soldiers to be careful when coming down, Ye Qiong walked directly into the cave.
The soldiers followed closely and safely entered the black hole. ,
Ye Qiong routinely counted the number of people and asked the soldiers to take out the barrel grease lamps first. He did not rush to put them in or light them. Instead, he asked the soldiers to pile up all the barrel grease lamps. Some positions on the inside of both sides.
After looking deep into the cave, Ye Qiong took off the bone crystal longbow from his back, and the soldiers also took out the weapons they carried.
In addition to wooden barrel grease lamps, the lighting supplies brought by Ye Qiong and the soldiers this time also included several torches and fire sticks.
Ye Qiong asked the three soldiers to light the torches, and then began to lead the soldiers inside.
The black hole, which had been silent for countless years, seemed to be revitalized as Ye Qiong and the soldiers went deeper, and there were some intriguing feelings. The soldiers under the waterfall had been watching Ye Qiong and the soldiers nervously. them.
After the figures of Ye Qiong and the soldiers disappeared from the vines, the soldiers continued to work on their matters.
But in the hearts of the soldiers, they always felt that something was not quite right...
