Chapter 1684: Canyon water supply

The dawn dawn dissipates the darkness, a rising sun rises from the eastern horizon, and the sky is a gorgeous glow.
Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu's breakfast is still cactus leaves, although it is unpalatable, there is no other option.
After a night's rest, the wounds on the feet of Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu were scarred, and walking was not so uncomfortable, so after they set off again, they were faster than yesterday.
The valley is long and narrow, and the deeper it goes, the more plants appear.
At first Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu saw only yellow weeds on the hillside. Later, there were shrubs, one here, one there, and some dozens of them gathered together to form a small bush.
These trees gave Ning Tao hope. He was eager to see a forest with small animals, rabbits, deer, and so on. Then he could survive in the forest with Bi Mingzhu, and then plan the next step.
The forest did not appear, but there was a dense shrubbery, large and small, two or three meters high, and one meter high, with red fruits hanging on it. In the morning light, it hangs on the branch like a ruby.
"What fruit is that?" Bi Mingzhu said excitedly.
Ning Tao just recognized it with a glance: "That's wolfberry, a nightshade shrub."
"Can you eat it?"
Ning Tao said: "This wolfberry is a medicinal material in my hometown, which nourishes yin and yang, and is good for men's kidneys. People in my hometown love to drink it with water."
"Then you can eat more." Bi Mingzhu said.
Ning Tao: "..."
When is it time for the gods to eat the wolfberry and kidney?
But he still eats a lot, not for kidney, but just for physical strength.
There were many weeds growing in the wolfberry forest, and he pulled out some.
"Old send, what are you doing to pull the grass?" Bi Mingzhu said curiously.
Ning Tao came over with a lot of weeds: "You sit down."
Bi Mingzhu sat on the grass according to her words, and glared at Ning Tao with her eyes, and her eyes seemed to be guessing whether Lao Fang was going to tell a story, but she didn't tell it.
Ning Tao squatted down, holding one foot of Bi Mingzhu, then paddling the weeds on the soles of the feet, and then weeded the weeds into a simple rope to strengthen them. In a blink of an eye, a simple straw shoe was made.
Bi Mingzhu knew what Ning Tao was doing now. Before Ning Tao greeted her, she raised her other leg and passed a dirty jade foot to Ning Tao, waiting for him to give Make your own straw shoes.
This single-legged posture moved Ning Tao inexplicably.
Made a pair of straw shoes for Bi Mingzhu, and Ning Tao himself made a pair of straw shoes to wear on his feet, and then continued to walk down the river bed to the deep canyon.
At that time, I didn't even look down on Yunsi Buyun, but now I'm reduced to wearing straw shoes.
The afternoon sun was strong, and Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu came to the end of the canyon.
At the end of the canyon stands a large mountain, the mountain is steep, and it has a height of five to six kilometers visually. Such a big mountain is placed on the mountain of God, which is at most a small stone. But here, it is an insurmountable existence. Without the magical power of pedaling Shenyun, and no flying swords, only one leg wants to turn over, and the chance of falling to death is more than 80%.
Until walking to the end of the canyon, Ning Tao also found no water, and the river bed of the canyon was interrupted at the foot of the mountain. Its source is on a cliff. Judging from the characteristics of the rock wall, it is not difficult to see that there was a waterfall on the rock wall, but now the river is cut off, leaving only the rocks that are very smooth by water.
Ning Tao came with hope, but the sight in front of him disappointed him.
There is no forest, no water, and with only some wolfberry and cactus, he and his dissatisfaction can not last for a few days.
Want to continue to move forward, this mountain has become an insurmountable obstacle. He and Bi Mingzhu didn't even have a pair of shoes, no water and no food, how could they climb such a steep mountain?
At that time, the Three Realms traversed casually, going up to Shenshan, down to Huangquan, and everywhere people bowed down ...
Think about that fart.
It seems that most of those spells are procedures, right?
It's like special effects in movies.
Iron Man never flies, his armor is just a prop.
Yi Tian Jian Tu Long Dao is actually plastic, and it can't cut people at all.
In the real world, one truth explains everything.
Bi Mingzhu was paralyzed sitting on the ground, and said in frustration: "Old send, don't ask me to climb this mountain, I can't climb it, you don't go to climb and you will fall to death."
Ning Tao didn't talk to her, he walked towards the cliff under the waterfall.
"Old send, do you really want to climb?" Bi Mingzhu got up and followed Ning Tao, "Don't go, you will really fall to death."
"There is something there." Ning Tao said, and he also raised his hand to give Bi Mingzhu a direction.
There were several shed rocks together in that place, with a triangular hole in the middle. It looks like a rock falling from the mountain and then held it together, there is a gap between the rock and the rock, there is nothing special. However, Ning Tao found that the sunlight did not reflect after it was moved in. It was not an ordinary hole.
Before sending the child, God used the earth-searching urns to find holes, but now he finds holes based on experience.
"What's in there?" Bi Mingzhu asked.
"I don't know, just look at it in the past." Ning Tao said, a hint of hope lit up in his heart.
The two came to the shed and looked over the half-height rocks stacked at the entrance of the cave. They saw a dark cave, but not a natural cave. The inner wall was inlaid with alloy, but it was painted black. Refraction of light.
"Let's go and see." Bi Mingzhu was anxious.
Ning Tao thought for a moment: "Pearl, we have to make some preparations to get in. You go to pick some cactus leaves and wolfberry. I go to pick some firewood. We have torches and food to get in, otherwise it will be dangerous."
The two broke up.
Half an hour later, the two met at the cave entrance.
Bi Mingzhu picked the leaves of more than a dozen cacti, but no wolfberry. There are a lot of wolfberries in the canyon, but she has no pockets and can't dress, and it is already her limit to get more than 20 cactus leaves.
Ning Tao not only died of a large bundle of firewood, but also lit a torch by drilling wood for fire.
"Old send, if you want to eat wolfberry, I will pick it for you when I come back, I can't get it now." Bi Mingzhu also explained to Ning Tao intentionally.
What makes me want to eat wolfberry?
Ning Tao was a little speechless, but said nothing, leading the cave.
Stepping over the large rocks that were shed together and entering the mountain, the cave became a man-made passage, about three meters high and about three meters wide, a circular passage. Such a passage is definitely not used to run airplane cars, but rather like a water diversion pipe. Combined with the already dried-up waterfall outside, this guess is quite possible, but there are no other possibilities, such as cable ducts or the like.
A thick layer of ash accumulated in the passageway. Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu left two lines of deep footprints in the past, which also saved the trouble of leaving marks. If there is nothing in it and it is not worth exploring, then they can return to the canyon along their footprints and continue to make a pair of Adam and Eve who eat cactus and wolfberry.
The passage was straight at first, but later it became oblique and downward, but the is not very large, about 30 degrees, it is very labor-saving to go down, but it must be laborious to go back.
About a thousand meters away, the torch went out, and Ning Tao picked up a new torch with the bush Chaihe on his back and took it in his hand to continue forward.
In this way, after lighting three torches, Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu walked out of the end of the circular passage. The light of the torch spread out. Oncoming was a huge water tank with a height of hundreds of meters and a width of several hundred meters. In addition, there were huge pumps and pipes for pumping water and ladders for maintenance.
The water tank and pipes are made of alloy, there is no rust, and they are well-preserved, but the pumps and pumping pipes in the water tank are not, and they are already decaying. A pile of rust was piled up next to the pump and under the pumping pipe, and even that rust was weathered to seven or eight.
Fortunately, the ladder is also an alloy material, and there is no rust, just a sign of weathering. Otherwise, Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu could not climb up with bare hands.
"Old place, this place is so strange." Bi Mingzhu sighed.
Ning Tao said: "There are water tanks and pumps for pumping, which shows that this place is inhabited. I guess it is probably an underground city. There are ladders there. Let's climb up and take a look."
"Um." Bi Mingzhu answered.
Ning Tao held the torch and came under the ladder. She pulled and pulled, and some dust fell from the ladder, but it was solid, and there were no signs of dregs or shaking that made people afraid to climb.
Then Ning Tao made some preparations. He opened the firewood bundle on his back, sandwiched the cactus leaves in Bi Mingzhu's hand among the firewood, then tied it again with a straw rope, and finally carried the firewood bundle on his back. On the back.
These cactus leaves are not only his and Bi Mingzhu's food, but also his and Bi Mingzhu's life, can not be left.
"Pearl, follow me up, be careful." Ning Tao exhorted.
Bi Mingzhu simply came over and scented on Ning Tao's cheek: "Be careful, too."
Ning Tao's heart warmed a little, he had a hunch, the next time he had a full stomach to rest, he had to tell her a story.
Ning Tao bit the torch in her mouth, then grabbed the ladder and climbed up.
Seems like a trivial thing to climb a ladder ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but it is actually very dangerous. Ordinary people, the ladder of one hundred meters high in the real world, straight up and down, how many people dare to climb? If you don't pay attention, you will fall down and die, and this ladder does not know how long it has been built. It is difficult to guarantee that there is nothing loose.
This is the real situation after the rebirth. Without those dazzling special-effect spells and exaggerated instruments, Ning Tao can only use his hands and feet. The danger of killing ordinary people can also kill him. So he climbed very carefully, but didn't dare to be too slow, because the torch would not keep burning.
This the real world.
The 100-meter ladder soon came to an end, and Ning Tao climbed up, not looking at the situation outside the sink, then turned around and reached out to pull the pearl.
Bi Mingzhu also climbed up.
Then Ning Tao held up the torch and walked to the edge of the sink platform.
At the edge of the sink platform, the fire radiated, a part of the scene in the dark space came on, and the two men standing side by side suddenly froze on the spot.
