All of you have probably heard the legends and myths about the existence of the race of gnomes who are engaged in the extraction of precious gems, are craftsmen for forging weapons and live underground? And if these are not legends and such a race actually exists?
An interesting story happened with a resident of China, but let's talk about everything in order. On February 28, 2003, near the Chinese city of Jixi, a landslide occurred, as a result of which fourteen miners who worked that day were missing. The relatives of the missing went to the police, because the owner of the mine himself did not want to organize a search group. The bodies of 12 of 14 people were found, and the fate of two remained unknown.
After 5 years, one of the workers returned home, but by that time no one was waiting for him and did not think that Wang Hu had managed to survive. His wife got married, the children left, and he bought himself a house, far from everyone. Policemen became interested in the case, who were worried about the issue of illegal compensation for families who received benefits from the state due to an accident. Wang stated that he was ready to refund all payments and could not make himself felt because he lived underground with the Kton race.
Nobody believed the man's words and he was sent for examination to a hospital, where doctors gave a conclusion about the man's complete mental health, despite his fantastic story. The police were able to find out that Wang Hu had about 40,000 yuan in his account, which he received for the sale of raw emeralds. This data was obtained as a result of checking the sender of money to the account. After conducting a search at Wang Hu's home, they found out that the stock of unprocessed emeralds was in excess of 300,000 yuan. To all the questions of the authorities about the origin of the emeralds, Wang Hu referred to the fact that he obtained them during his stay with the Ktons, who taught him this craft.
Wang Hu said that the creatures under the ground are small in stature, but very strong physically and have some technologies that are not available to humans. The approximate depth where the Ktons live is about 15 kilometers. There is a system of passages underground and special lenses with a height of 300 meters are installed, which allow illuminating the system of passages and caves. The language of the underground race is not particularly difficult, and after a few months, Wang Hu managed to communicate with the Ctons and understand them.
The main food of the underground race is mold, which covers the walls and this affects the number of years the race will live. The minimum lifespan of Ctons is 200 years and are literate creatures that can read and write, as well as have various professions necessary for life at depth. The man said that underground he had a wife and even children, but he yearned for the surface and for all the persuasions of the Kton race to stay, he answered negatively and nevertheless decided to return to his usual life.
After months of interrogation by the authorities, Wang Hu was declared insane, but was not taken to a hospital, but taken to a military base, which makes one wonder about the purpose of the Chinese authorities. It is difficult to talk about the reality of the story with Wang Hu, but some theories say that life below the surface is quite possible and there may be various races that rarely come to the surface.
