Only then did the dogs start dragging the sleigh and run in.
After entering, Chen Feng and Laura found that the temperature inside the ice cave was much higher than outside.
Although Chen Feng is not afraid of severe cold, he still has a keen sense of temperature.
The inside of the ice cave is zigzagging and very deep, and the road is covered with thick solid ice, shining with cold silver light.
There are ice cones hanging upside down like stalactites above the cave, which are estimated to have a history of thousands of years.
Fortunately, the terrain of the ice cave is not complicated, it is one-way, and there are no forks.
"Hmph, hum."
At this time, the dogs had been trekking against the wind and snow for a long distance, and they were already a little tired, panting heavily with their mouths open, and their running speed was obviously slow.
After many twists and turns, Chen Feng and Laura finally came to the entrance of Wanying Cave.
"This......"
To Laura's surprise, there was a thick wall of ice in front of her.
Chen Feng got off the sleigh, glanced at it, and knew that a fist as big as a sandbag would be enough to smash it to pieces.
However, due to the limitation of "unlocking the mechanism puzzles of the Light Dance Cave in Cambodia and the Myriad Shadow Cave in Siberia" in the main task, reincarnators must adopt routine procedures to solve the mechanism puzzles. .
"Ok."
Chen Feng got off the sled and walked to the ice wall with ease.
About two meters away from the ice wall, there was a frozen bronze clock hanging there abruptly.
Chen Feng stretched out his hand, grabbed the clock core hanging at the end of the clock, and struck the clock vigorously.
"clang!"
Only a crisp and powerful bell ringing was heard.
An invisible sound wave was transmitted in the rock cave, making a buzzing sound that irritated the eardrums, and Laura couldn't help covering her ears.
The ice wall at the end of the cave began to tremble slightly, and tiny cracks gradually appeared, and finally with a bang, the whole thing burst apart!
The entrance to Wanying Cave has been opened!
"Using the small bronze bell to vibrate, the sound resonates with the thick ice wall at the same frequency, directly destroying it." Chen Feng explained with a smile to Laura, who immediately understood.
Laura shook the snow scum on her clothes, and said jokingly, "If you ask me, the person who designed the Myriad Shadows Cave must be a physicist today."
"I think so too." Chen Feng said.
"Okay, let's go!"
Holding the light sticks for lighting in their hands, the two walked into the Wanying Cave hand in hand.
......
As soon as they entered the Myriad Shadows Cave, what appeared in front of Laura and Chen Feng was a jaw-dropping spectacle.
In front of him was a huge, well-crafted device.
There is a large ball in the middle, and nine relatively smaller balls are connected by multiple metal arms around it, with slightly different shapes from each other.
"The Orb!" Laura exclaimed.
"That's right, it's the celestial globe of the nine planets." Chen Feng answered.
The celestial instrument, which first appeared in China, is called "Hunxiang" and is an instrument used to demonstrate astronomical phenomena.
The ancients made this kind of instrument very early on, and it can be used to intuitively and visually understand the mutual positions and laws of motion of the sun, moon, and stars.
And the gigantic celestial globe that appeared in the center of Wanying Cave was obviously used to demonstrate the movement of the nine planets in the solar system.
Each small ball symbolizes a different planet, and the nine planets are arranged there according to their respective proportions.
The support arms of each planet are cast in bronze and meshed with each other, precisely like a row of nine gear sets connected together.
Below the celestial body is a pool of water, in which the water is surging and bottomless.
Similar institutions not only appear here in Wanying Cave, but also appeared in the parallel world "Tomb Raider: Shadow".
"This is simulating the scene of Nine Stars Linking Pearls." Laura murmured while staring at the celestial globe.
Laura took two steps closer to get a better view of a similar celestial globe her father, Richard Crawford, had shown her as a child.
But at that time, the miniature version was used, which was far less spectacular than the large-scale installation in front of us.
Laura couldn't help sighing: "I really can't believe who it is and what method they used to build such a spectacle in this place!"
Before getting rid of the shock of entering the Light and Shadow Cave for the first time, Laura saw a small translucent light cluster floating in midair.
She reached out to touch, but couldn't touch anything, as if through invisible air.
But the change in the hand passing through the light ball startled Laura a lot.
I saw that the hand was rapidly aged in the light ball, the skin was loose and rotten, and then immediately turned into white bones.
"No!" Laura hurriedly withdrew her hand.
Surprisingly, as soon as the hand left the range of the light cluster, it quickly returned to its original state of health.
"Don't be afraid, it's fine." Chen Feng explained, "This is the eye of the space-time storm, and it's the time-space gap here. Without the activation of the magic triangle, it can't really work."
Laura looked at her hands with an incredulous expression on her face.
"How much time is left?" Chen Feng asked.
"Immediately, there are still 3 minutes until the final stage of Jiuxing Lianzhu." Laura took out the key disc and looked at it against her watch.
......
At this time, outside Wanying Cave, a strange scene of Tiangou eclipsing the sun appeared.
The extremely rare astronomical phenomenon "Nine Stars Lianzhu" is being staged.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all arranged in a straight line on the same side of the sun.
The light from the magical celestial phenomenon is refracted by snowflakes and ice crystals, presenting a gorgeous light, as if there are thousands of lights and shadows cast on the huge celestial globe in Wanying Cave at the same time.
Suddenly, the large ball symbolizing the sun in the center of the astronomical instrument glowed with a faint yellow light, and the surrounding small balls symbolizing the nine planets also rotated under the push of the bronze wall.
