Chapter 301 Entrance
The ruins mentioned by the old priests are not far from where they are.
On the way to go, Yu Zhen found that there were stone statues everywhere, some portraits and some unknown beasts.
It looked quite normal at first, and it was similar in size to those seen in the movie, but the deeper you went, the older the statues became, and each one was taller than the other.
Most of the statues were buried deep in the soil, only half of which was exposed outside, and only a huge head was buried deep.
Although it has been a long time since I don’t know how long, it can still be seen that these statues are made very finely. From this, we can infer that there was a very developed civilization in this rain forest countless years ago.
"The valley is ahead, you must follow me closely." Anna said, "The fog here is very heavy, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose your direction."
“Is there a valley here too?”
Willie was a little puzzled because in his impression, the Amazon River basin was a plain with almost no mountains, so how could there be a valley?
"It's not considered a valley, it should be a crack in the ground, about a hundred meters deep." Anna explained
"Will that not be filled with water?"
"There are some rivers flowing in, but which water flows into the ground in the end."
There is an underground river?
Yu Zhen also found it incredible.
Because the altitude of this rainforest is very low, even if there is an underground river, it is useless. The water poured into the surrounding area will still flood most of the cracks.
But when he got closer, he found that the crack of the ground, which was more than 100 meters deep and about ten kilometers long, was only lush vegetation and white fog that was as thick as rice candy, but there was no water on the ground.
Following a dangerous path, several people quickly came to the bottom of the valley. Yu Zhen discovered a large number of fresh footprints, which should have been left by the Holy Spirit Elders and the cannibals.
“Don’t these fogs disappear?”
"Yes," said Anna, "I heard from my grandma that the fog in this crack was used by our ancestors to protect the remains."
"Where is that ruin? Have you ever been?"
"No, we didn't know the specific location before, but now we know," Anna said. "The two demons came here for some reason, and they helped us find the remains."
Under Anna's leadership, several people walked two or three miles deep into the cracks.
The terrain here is even lower, the white fog is getting thicker, and the light is getting darker, so you can't see the figure clearly after almost a few meters.
The green leaves of the ground vegetation are covered with water droplets. I don’t know that these plants can grow so well without the sunlight.
And those small creatures hidden in the dense grass are much larger than outside. The small poisonous dart frog can grow to the size of a fist here.
There are also various colorful poisonous snakes, the smallest one is thicker than the arms, and just grabbing one is enough for a few people to have a full meal.
The deeper you go, the more you start to find cannibal corpses on both sides of the "road". There are at least a dozen of them along the way, and it seems that they are all attacked by poisonous insects.
Fortunately, Yu Zhen felt that it could be used here, and he could prevent the attacks of virgin insects and venomous snakes in advance, avoiding all dangers without any dangers.
"It's right in front," Anna whispered, "We're about to pass by a huge door of yours, and not far from inside is the entrance to the ruins."
Several people quickly walked forward and soon arrived at a relatively narrow place. The "cliffs" on both sides of the fog appeared to be shady, like a huge mountain gate. I don't know whether it was formed naturally or artificially.
But as soon as he stepped into the mountain gate, Yu Zhen and William stopped.
Although it was only a line of separation, the two of them clearly felt that their spiritual energy was severely suppressed in this mountain gate.
Yu Zhen's perception area instantly shrank to dozens of meters, and William became even more pitiful, and he could only sense a few meters around him.
This kind of suppression is different from the underground maze in Africa. There are stones that can quickly absorb spiritual energy and primordial qi, but there is no such thing here.
Instead, I feel that the air here cannot spread the aura well.
Of course, this is just Yu Zhen’s feeling. He doesn’t know what’s going on. Maybe it’s because it’s full of higher-level energy.
"I think... Willie and I should wait here," William said. "If the spiritual energy cannot be used inside, it will only be a drag if an old man enters."
"Yes," Yu Zhen said, "You guard this gate closely. If someone from the Holy Spirit Association sneaks out, don't let it go."
"Don't worry, I will definitely not let anyone leave here."
"What about me?" Willie asked a little uncertain, "Will I stay too?"
"You don't need it."
Willy is young and powerful. If spiritual energy and Yuanqi cannot be used inside, then his power and speed will come in handy.
As for Anna, Yu Zhen believes that in such an environment, she can protect herself better than Willie.
The three of them continued to move forward, and behind the mountain gate was a darker place. The trees here were very tall, and the highest one was probably seventy or eighty meters long, and more than a dozen people couldn't hold it.
The roots of trees are like dragons, covered with moss, and a large number of vines and shrubs. It is very difficult for ordinary people to climb over a tree root.
Willie also found that even the compass failed when he arrived at this place. The walkie-talkie he carried with him lost the signal, leaving only the thrilling sound.
On the canopy of a big tree, Yu Zhen even saw an old-fashioned plane crashing, and I don’t know when it fell here.
Not only that, when he arrived at this place, Yu Zhen felt that the Yuan Qi was suppressed even more. He could only sense a range of about thirty meters now.
No wonder the elders of the Holy Spirit Society wanted to recruit those strong cannibals. In this place, the elders' spiritual energy was almost completely suppressed and became no different from ordinary people.
"Listen, it's the sound of someone talking."
Yu Zhen listened with his ears and heard noises coming from the front.
The three of them quietly lurked over and soon saw hundreds of cannibal men who were cutting down shrubs on a cliff with a scimitar to clear weeds and soil.
Those places that were cleaned were ink-colored stones, with very smooth surfaces and vaguely visible patterns.
The two Holy Spirit Elders sat steadily on two rattan chairs, staring at everything on the cliff.
The dozens of female warriors were tied up and threw them aside, and they didn't know what to do when they got them here.
"Master, what should I do now?"
Yu Zhen pondered for a moment.
His situation is not the worst now, but it is not very good either.
There is definitely no problem to knock down these cannibals as quickly as possible, but in this way, the gate of the ruins will be difficult to open.
After all, this entrance looks at least hundreds of meters high, and it is full of soil and vegetation, so it takes him a lot of effort to clean it up.
And there may be some thunder in the ruins.
So instead of doing it all by yourself, it is better to let these free laborers open the door before making plans.
