    The deep valley is secluded, the shrubs are lush, the mist is lingering, and the mountain wind is cold.

    "A few people are in the deep valley like a needle plunging into the sea. Occasionally, they can hear the whistle of the iron hand opening the way ahead.  The land in the far west is already desolate, and this place is even more desolate. There are no roads on the ground and no birds in the sky. It is surrounded by rolling mountains. As far as the eye can see, you can see the shadows of several snow-capped peaks, which makes people breathless.  Come.

    Qiao Yucheng measured the altitude and direction every time he went down, so that everyone would have a clear idea.  The physical strength of the two women, Zhou Fanghua and Jiang Yihan, dropped quickly. As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. The most important thing is that there is not even a road. Tie Shou and Tie Ying tried their best to walk in a place with sparse bushes. After an hour, they discovered that the distance was actually  The ruined city in the valley is much further away.

    Having no choice but to adjust the route again, this time I learned the lesson just now, selected the target in the valley and started trekking directly.  Halfway through the journey, a large number of boulders and building components suddenly appeared in the bushes. The ruins were obviously damaged by external forces. Some were buried in the gravel, while others were covered by dense bushes.  .

    The power of nature is irresistible. When a magnificent city is abandoned, nature becomes its master. Under the temper of time, the traces of the past humans are gradually worn away, leaving endless vicissitudes to future generations.

    Chu Nanfei decided to rest where he was immediately and must reach the ruins of the deep valley to set up camp before dark.  Zhou Fanghua, Jiang Yihan and Ding Qifeng immediately began to inspect the ruins, hoping to find clues, but unfortunately no written records were found.

    "Judging from the scale of the stone components, this city is very large, and its architectural level has reached an astonishing level." Zhou Fanghua stroked a smooth stone with three rectangular stone grooves on it, which were obviously  Used to fix components: "Without advanced tools, it would be impossible to cut such a standard channel. Another thing that is strange is that the building composed of these stone components must be huge. Maybe this is a pass into the city."

    A broken stone was more than ten meters long. It would have been shocking if it hadn't been broken into several pieces!

    "This is on a hillside, and there is still half the distance to the valley. Why not use natural barriers to build a pass?" Jiang Yihan glanced suspiciously at Ding Qifeng, who was observing the stones with a magnifying glass: "Professor Ding, as far as you know the ancient northwest  Was there ever a city of this magnitude? Or a country?"

    Ding Qifeng acted as if he had never heard of it, and was still obsessed with the work in his hands.  Jiang Yihan sighed helplessly: "If such a pass is really built from the bottom of the valley, its height will be more than 700 meters. If you include the altitude, it will be even more amazing. It should be regarded as the highest city in the world."

    "Don't you find it strange? How to solve the traffic problem when building in a valley more than a thousand meters deep? How many people are needed to build a city of this size? What do people eat? And how do they install such big rocks?"  Zhou Fanghua stroked the stone with a slight frown, as if feeling the ancient years that had been tempered by wind and rain, and her heart suddenly became heavy.

    The strangest thing is not these, but the fact that a city of magnificent scale was built in a place where there should not be a city!

    Benjamin kept taking pictures with a 135mm camera and kept praising: "This reminds me of the great ancient city of Pompeii. Yes, it was the greatest city in prehistory. Unfortunately, it was ruthlessly destroyed by a volcanic earthquake.  , and now it has slipped into the sea."

    At this time, Ding Qifeng struggled to walk over with a broken stone the size of a washbasin as if he had found a treasure, threw the stone on the ground, and observed it carefully with a magnifying glass. Sweat dripped on the spectacle lenses, which suddenly became blurry, and finally he could see clearly.  carvings on the stone.  I couldn't help but wave the magnifying glass excitedly, but before I thought, it flew out. The magnifying glass fell on a stone and broke into pieces.

    "The carvings on this stone are very special" Ding Qifeng picked up the magnifying glass in annoyance, collected the fragments and said: "The lines are exactly the same as the carvings on the plateau lake boulders, which is enough to prove that they come from the same civilization of the same period!"

    Simple grooves are clearly carved on the broken stone. The edges and corners of the grooves are sharp and have not been eroded at all.  Zhou Fanghua and Jiang Yihan gathered around and watched carefully. They couldn't help but be horrified: the groove was the same as the one carved yesterday, but the parts next to it were eroded and lost their edges. What does this mean?

    "Nanfei, is this the photon carving technology you call?" Zhou Fanghua asked, looking at Chu Nanfei who was lying on the stone to rest.

    Chu Nanfei glanced at his watch sideways: "There are still five minutes of rest time. The way down is difficult to follow. There is probably a cliff."

    "I'm asking you!" Zhou Fanghua glared at Chu Nanfei dissatisfied: "Generally speaking, even if it is carved with a photon engraving machine,Son?  "

    "Don't worry about it!" Zhou Fanghua wanted to push Chu Nanfei away, but she threw herself on his shoulder. Tears streamed down her cheeks, and there was a bloody cut on her ankle. Fanghua's face turned pale.

    Jiang Yihan immediately took out the first aid kit and started to bandage the wound. Zhou Fanghua wanted to get up but was grinning in pain. Chu Nanfei couldn't help but carry the woman on his back and continue trekking.  Time is running out. If we don't reach the ruins before dark, we will have to launch a search operation tomorrow.  And the most important thing now is time, nothing else!

    A gust of mountain wind blew the woman's hair away, and he felt the familiar fragrance entering his nose. Chu Nanfei's mood couldn't help but flicker, and he suddenly remembered the scene of performing a mission in the desert.  The two of them went looking for water in the heart of the desert and fell into an underground river. They almost lost two lives. Fortunately, everything went smoothly, otherwise they would have passed away forever.

    "Why don't you participate in the discussion? Your judgment is often the most accurate!"

    Chu Nanfei was silent, sweat flowed down his neck silently, Zhou Fanghua wiped it with his cold jade hands a few times: "Put me down quickly and take a rest?"

    ¡°If you don¡¯t want to sleep in the wilderness, just stay there!¡±

    "You said this is where the gods live? Then I believe you. This city is the palace of the Queen Mother of the West. The Three Sovereigns, Five Emperors and the Emperor of Zhou have all made pilgrimages here!" Zhou Fanghua chuckled deliberately and said, "There's more.  I judge that this city was destroyed by the Gonggong clan. The sky pillars were broken and the earth was destroyed, and it became like this."

    Chu Nanfei glanced at the deep valley. Although the sun was shining brightly, the valley was still foggy, and the surrounding area was always surrounded by mist. The mountain wind gave off a moist feeling.  I don't know since when I started to feel that my breathing became much easier. The altitude that Qiao Yucheng measured just now was actually about 3,700 meters, and the depth of the valley was more than 700 meters?  And there are still several hundred meters to reach the valley!

    The climate in the valley is incompatible with the climate in the cold zone of the plateau, and it has the charm of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.  Chu Nanfei saw at a glance that there was a narrow river under the deep valley, but the light of the water disappeared in a flash, seeming to be submerged in the thick shrubs.

    "Don't forget Plan Zero. You are the commander of the operation, and Xiao Jiang and I are just team members. You have the obligation to participate in the discussion!" Zhou Fanghua patted the man on the shoulder and sneered: "And Benjamin is me  ¡¯s assistant, so now you have the biggest position in this team.¡±

    Chu Nanfei glanced at the lush and dark deep valley indifferently. There was such a valley and such a magical ruin in the northwest plateau. What secrets were hidden?  Are Benjamin¡¯s story and Ding Qifeng¡¯s history true?  Had the engineer company and advance party been here before?  Where is that legendary underground cave?

    At this moment, Tie Shou and Tie Ying, who were opening the way in front, suddenly whistled at the same time: Something is happening!

    The two of them were standing on a boulder dozens of meters away, only a step away from the valley.  Chu Nanfei and others tried their best to speed up, and arrived at the boulder ten minutes later. However, they saw a huge white skeleton on top, and Tie Shou and Tie Ying were studying it.

    "Boss, look!" Iron Hand exaggeratedly picked up the one-meter-long skull: "I found a mythical beast, haha!"

    Chu Nanfei gently put down Zhou Fanghua, panted and looked around carefully. A bad premonition arose spontaneously, and he couldn't help but frown: "Be on guard immediately!"

    "Boss, you have been bitten by a snake once and feared for ten years"

    Before he finished speaking, a huge shadow suddenly circled in the sky, and then there was a shrill cry. The iron hand was so frightened that he hurriedly dropped the huge skull, holding the submachine gun and looking at the sky.  There was only a palm-sized patch of blue in the sky above. Everyone was as insignificant as frogs at the bottom of a well, and the shadows disappeared in a flash!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
