As they passed the bushes, everyone's eyes suddenly blurred and they were all stunned. Everyone stared in front of them, dumbfounded.
What a wonder!
It turned out that in front of everyone stood a steep wall more than thirty feet high, with both ends connected to the mountain wall behind.
What's strange is that the entire mountain wall is covered with thick, shiny ice. A large expanse of thick ice can be discerned, and the entire mountain wall is like a tall and long huge crystal.
Under the cliff is a deep stream more than three feet wide. The surface of the stream is covered with thick ice. The mountain wind has swept away the snow on the stream. The surface of the stream and the solid ice on the cliff reflect each other. The scenery inside is profound and far-reaching, truly dazzling.
Everyone stood under the ice cliff, looking at the thick and smooth ice, and unanimously focused their attention on Jin Yubei.
Some people can’t help but wonder: How can we climb this ice cliff as bright as a mirror? Do we have to turn someone into a bird and fly up?
Jin Yubei turned around and said to Arsalan: "General, the mountain wall in front of us is steep and difficult to climb. General, please return to camp with all the heroes."
Although Arsalan had the life of Baylor's army, in front of this unreachable ice cliff, Jin Yubei resigned again, which was enough to return to the camp and resume his life.
But the more difficult the situation, the braver the Jurchen warriors became. Moreover, Arsalan and others have never seen such a magical and spectacular ice wall, and they all want to follow the Great Khan in the expedition. They have gone through countless hardships and dangers, but this ice wall is impossible to climb?
Arsalan and the other ten warriors were convinced that there must be a magical way to climb the ice cliff in the north of Jinyu. They were eager to see it and were very curious.
Arsalan asked: "Golden Warrior, how do you climb up this tall ice cliff? Warrior, can you open my eyes to me?"
Jin Yubei saw that Arsalan spoke frankly and honestly, without any ulterior motives, and did not use Baylor's military life as an excuse. No longer refusing, he turned around and said, "Let's go." Walking eastward along the mountain stream under the ice cliff, Arsalan led the crowd and followed closely behind.
The group walked about three hundred steps south on the frozen stream and saw a huge withered pine lying across the mountain stream.
The upper part of the giant pine trunk is bent on the ice cliff, and a section has been covered by thick ice on the cliff. The front end of the trunk of the giant pine obviously grew against the mountain wall. When the dripping water turned into ice, the upper part was covered by the ice on the cliff.
Jin Yubei walked to the giant pine and stopped. Everyone stared at the fallen pine tree and couldn't help but admire, what a huge pine tree! Lying on the stream, he was almost as tall as a person.
Everyone looked at Jin Yubei again, wanting to see the surprise in their hearts, wondering what kind of exquisite mechanism they would see next.
When everyone saw Jin Yubei standing next to the tree, they looked at the pine tree again. There was nothing special about the pine tree except that it was extremely huge.
While everyone was wondering, they saw Jin Yu walking north to the roots of the giant pine and stretching out his feet to part the reeds.
I don’t know where he touched the mechanism, but the huge tree root section suddenly opened in the middle, revealing a large tree hole. Jin Yubei lowered his head and walked in first, followed by everyone else.
After walking to the bottom of the cliff in the huge tree, everyone looked up and saw that they were under the solid ice.
It turns out that the upper end of the giant pine reaches into the gully of the cliff. When people walk through the tree, they reach the gully of the cliff.
Arsalan was still wondering to himself, this ice should have covered this ravine, but why did he leave such a straight up and down ravine alone without filling it with water to form ice?
Arsalan looked carefully at the ice surface behind him and felt that it was white and not transparent. He stretched out his hand and touched it. His hands were astringent and not smooth. When he looked closer, he found that the wall was covered with a layer of white. linoleum.
Arsalan suddenly realized that the strange water did not fill this gully, nor was it filled with thick ice, all because the white oilcloth covered the gully from top to bottom, and the water was outside the oilcloth. It flows down and freezes the ice outside.
The ravine on the cliff turned into a semicircular straight tube, which was used as a passage for people to go up and down.
It was really a combination of ingenuity and ingenuity that allowed this passage to be built. Arsalan couldn't help but marvel.
Looking at the dried moss and algae inside this ravine, it turns out that there used to be a waterfall falling straight down here.
Arsalan looked through the gap beside Jin Yubei and saw that the wall went straight up and down, and there was a faint light above thirty-seven or eight feet.
Although the gully wall has been carved with wave-like circles and grooves by the water, and one can climb up using both hands and feet, it is not easy to go straight up thirty-seven or eight feet in this tall straight tube.
Arsalan thought again: If the soldiers and horses come here, let alone not be able to find the passage up the cliff. Even if they find it, as long as one person guards the exit from the cliff, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, it will be difficult to attack. It’s really a good place where one man is in charge and no one can open it.
Looking north of Jinyu, it is now close to the exit.
He held his junior sister with both hands and stepped on the grooves on the wall alternately with his hands. With only a few alternations of his feet, he was already close to the top of the cliff.
When he reached a high place, he could not clearly see his feet stepping on the wall of the ravine. He could only be seen rising straight up like Lingxu riding the wind, and finally floated straight out of the passage exit.
Jin Yubei held his little junior sister in his arms and stood on the ice wall, thinking to himself: In the past three years, except for the stupid black bear who has climbed Su'er's "Bear Dike", no outsider has ever appeared here. , who could have imagined that he would bring more than ten Jurchen warriors here today.
Jin Yubei couldn't help but feel sweet when he thought of playing bear hunting with Su'er on this cliff.
It turns out that Jin Yubei named this cliff "Fu Xiong Di" because he and his beloved wife hunted bears here on weekdays.
In the summer, there was a trickle of water on the wall. Jin Yubei led the black bear in front to climb up the wall. It was three to five feet high, and he jumped down to the bottom of the cliff.
The black bear chasing up had to turn back down awkwardly.
At this time, Su'er had already set up a cage below, and the black bear could only crawl down step by step from the wall to the cage that Su'er had set up.
Sometimes it's even simpler. Jin Yubei leads the black bear all the way up. Su'er waits for her husband to get out of the passage and covers the exit with the cage. When the black bear comes out of the passage, it enters the cage.
Every time at this time, Jin Yubei looked at Su'er with a smile, watching her tease the black bear with great interest, causing the stupid black bear to roll around in the stream with its cage.
Jin Yubei raised his head and looked at the mountain wall due to the north, meditating on his small wooden house and the scene of his beloved wife at home at this time.
At this time, everyone was still struggling to climb up in the passage.
Arsalan looked down and saw that his warriors were climbing up one after another below him, just like a string of fish strung together by a tree branch.
Everyone exhaled again and again, and after less than half an hour, they climbed out of the cave one by one. In the heavy snow, everyone was sweating profusely, and white steam was rising above their heads.
Arsalan reached the top of the cliff and looked around. It turned out that there was a large stream of water on top of the ice cliff.
The stream flows from the dense forest to the east, spreads out on the open land on the top of the cliff, fills the open space on the top of the cliff, and then flows down the entire cliff below. At this time, it was freezing cold and the water on the cliff top was frozen.
The exit of this ravine passage leading up from the bottom of the cliff has been raised a circle so that no more water can be poured in.
There is also a winch placed on one side of the exit, with a long cowhide rope coiled over it.
Arsalan thought to himself: This winch may be used to lift things up and down.
