Chapter 687: There is an answer
As soon as Li Tai'an left, the weight on the shoulders of the members of the hunting team naturally returned.
But fortunately, these burdens were carefully decided by He Yongchang according to the ability of the people in the team, and after Li Tai'an's words came out, everyone was mentally prepared for this, and Li Tai'an obviously showed mercy, not to withdraw the power of the stars all at once, but to slowly reduce it, which gave everyone a process of adaptation.
So this time it's okay, the person didn't fall, but he just had to continue to climb up, and everyone didn't dare at this time.
Li Tai'an has already left, and I don't have time to think about what is going on with this guy now, but what is going on with that ground thorn must be figured out first.
Otherwise, who can stand it if one suddenly comes out of the cliff face while crawling.
This reconnaissance work, Lin Shuo entrusted to Su Dongdong, because this Su family hunter has the most flexible body and excellent ear power, even if she encounters a new ground thorn, she can avoid it in advance.
It's a big deal to roll with her for a while, it's not a big problem.
Su Dongdong was ordered to go back up the cliff and climb to the place where the ground thorn shot out before, and the results were soon available after inspection.
It was indeed a pre-set trap, and a device for firing ground spikes was buried in the mountain.
This device was taken out by Su Dongdong and observed, and then thrown to Lin Shuo, who was looking up below.
And Lin Shuo at the bottom only glanced up, and knew what it was, but he didn't answer.
All too familiar, this is the Thorn Trap.
Inheritance hunters can do business as long as they can do business, and there is no such trap that they will not do.
The base is made of a variety of materials, just take local materials, the key is to provide the ground thorn with the power to launch something, now generally use high-strength springs, in the past it was bamboo.
The set of devices thrown down by Su Dongdong is obviously more old-fashioned, and the power provided by five bamboo slices.
And the skin of these five bamboo pieces is not green, but purple.
This is purple bamboo.
According to the old man, when he visited the Li family in Eastern Europe, the deepest impression was the large purple bamboo forest of their family.
It is rumored that the Li family was originally from Chudi, and later continued to migrate with the movements of the Queen Mother of the West, but no matter where they went, they would plant a piece of purple bamboo from their hometown.
Therefore, this set of ground thorn traps should be the handiwork of the Li family.
And for Su Dongdong, when he didn't expect it at first, this thing was really difficult to find, but now that he knows what he is looking for, he can still find it.
She pressed her ear to the cliff face while constantly patting her hand against the cliff face, judging from the echo of the nearby mountain structure.
As a result, she didn't find a second trap, and this was the only trap around here.
At present, this climbing route is made by He Yongchang in front, and the small stone pit carved out by the mountaineering pickaxe can allow everyone to settle down.
And why Su Dongdong triggered the trap and didn't set off from He Yongchang just now, an important reason is that Su Dongdong didn't follow the route he Yongchang chiseled.
She dug another pit to climb up, first, to ensure that she could go hand in hand with Li Tai'an, and at the same time to make an alternate route for the two groups of teammates below who helped each other.
However, whether it is the route excavated by He Yongchang or the alternate route excavated by Su Dongdong, this is random, and Li Tai'an cannot control it in advance.
So on the whole, Su Dongdong's triggering of the trap should be an accidental event.
Lin Shuo even thought that the burial of this ground thorn trap in the cliff face was also an accident.
This ground thorn trap was originally supposed to be made on the ground by the Li family hunters, but later the terrain here changed, and it was buried in the mountain.
Fortunately, she was bumped into by Su Dongdong and avoided it with her ability.
And what Li Tai'an is Lin Shuo is not clear at this time, but on the whole, his actions and words generally reveal three intentions.
The first is to observe the ability of Lin Shuo's party, the second is to provide everyone with some underground information, and the third is to use his own words to amuse himself and these people.
As far as Li Tai'an's performance is concerned, he is still helpful to the hunting team, which is why Lin Shuo was able to tolerate him before.
He knew that Li Tai'an must have something else to hide, but since this person hadn't shown his fortune yet, he might as well use each other for a while.
But as Su Dongdong's trap fell, and then Miao Xiaoxian sprained his wrist before, Ji Shiwhip couldn't pull Su Dongdong.
This series of accidents caused the environmental pressure to become extremely great all of a sudden, and there was no room for decision-making as a leader, and Lin Shuo could not risk the lives of the whole team.
So he had to draw his bow and aim at Li Tai'an.
As a result, Li Taian couldn't stay any longer, so he simply left for a showdown.
Sai Weng lost his horse and knew whether it was a blessing or not, and the matter of Su Dongdong's trap now seems to be an accident, and the result is a blessing or a curse I don't know yet.
But at this point, it's useless to think too much about Li Tai'an.
Now that Su Dongdong has made it clear that the trap is not a big threat to everyone, and with Li Tai'an leaving, the old man doesn't have to drag himself with a thousand catties, and the weight of chasing the master has returned to its original state, so continue to hurry.
The walled mountains around the Great Rift Valley are below 2,000 meters above sea level, but there is still some slope, and above 2,000 meters it begins to be nearly vertical.
The 4,000 to 6,000 meters, which is near the snow line, is completely vertical.
After 6,000 meters, the slope eases again until the summit is 7,000 meters high.
The nine members of the hunting team, including Lin Shuo, had no easy trip.
What's worse is that after people reach the peak one after another, they can't catch their breath if they want to, the altitude is too high, and the oxygen content of the air is not enough.
Fortunately, He Yongchang took into account the descent when planning the materials before, and brought a lot of ropes.
Therefore, everyone climbs up the mountain, and descends the mountain by rope, which can save a lot of effort.
In short, this trip up and down, it took more than six hours before and after.
After all the people gathered at the bottom of the mountain, it was already dark.
The ground under my feet is different from before.
The previous ones were purple stones, and they were soft.
It's actually a meadow with rich soil, and it's so big around the foot of the mountain.
A few hundred meters away from the meadow, the ground seemed to have been slashed by a giant, and it was a huge rift.
According to previous satellite surveys, this rift valley, which was formed by a major earthquake a year ago, is 30 to 120 kilometers wide from north to south, more than 600 kilometers long from east to west, and the deepest place is more than 2,000 meters.
According to current information, in addition to the rift itself, there is also an entrance to a huge space underground hidden at the bottom of the rift.
At this time, it was already dark, and everyone's physical strength was very exhausted, so it was obviously not a wise move to go down to the rift at this time.
So the hunting party began to set up camp in the meadows, intending to sleep here for the night.
Ding Bang was busy for a while, and when everyone sat down together and started eating, Lin Shuo found that these people were staring at him.
Of course, Lin Shuo knew why.
Before going over the mountains and mountains, everyone was fighting against gravity, and of course Li Tai'an's affairs couldn't be taken care of.
Now that people are idle, I have to give them an explanation for this matter.
Especially the three cultivators of the European Holy See, Li Tai'an spoke Chinese before leaving, and they couldn't understand it, and they were confused.
Lin Shuo glanced at He Yongchang and nodded, which meant to let Lao He say.
After all, Lao He is one of the leaders of the hunting gate and the vice captain of the hunting team, so he has the right to explain.
Lao He is usually a very obedient person, but now he shook his head, looked embarrassed, and said softly: "Chief Leader, have you heard who he mentioned before? If this is wrong, it will be to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, my Lao He is not so big, or you should come." ”
Lin Shuo smacked his teeth, it was because this matter was not easy to explain that he expected He Yongchang to make up a nonsense temporarily.
didn't expect Lao He to be clever and see through it.
The reason why Lin Shuo didn't make it up himself was because it was about the ancestor of the Yun family, she was the ancestor of the Hunting Gate and the ancestor of his mother's branch.
If he made up her nonsense, it would be the same as He Yongchang said, this is called deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors.
Of course, you can not make up nonsense, but if you tell the truth, Lin Shuo is afraid that the three people of the European Holy See will not believe it.
Because according to Li Tai'an, this person has lived for at least 10,000 years, and he still has a relationship with the ancestor of the Hunting Gate.
He was thinking about his friendship with the ancestor of the Hunter Gate, so he came out "inside" this time and secretly sent news and tips to Lin Shuo and his gang.
And he appeared in front of everyone as Li Tai'an, which was because he "borrowed" Li Tiangang's body, and then made him "younger" in his thirties.
It doesn't sound like human words, so how do you say it?
In addition, Lee Taian also talked about Kowloon.
The existence of Kowloon is the biggest secret of the Hunting Gate.
According to the ancestral training of the Hunting Gate, except for the head of the family above nine inches in the Hunting Gate, he has the right to know, and he must not disclose it to others.
Although the situation has changed drastically now, as the head of Lin Shuo's hunting sect, Zu Xun is not unable to challenge, but only against the three young people of the European Holy See, it seems that he can't do this.
So Lin Shuo carefully considered the words and first said some truths in English that can be said now.
This Li Tai'an is impersonating.
There is no such person in the Li family of the Hunting Gate, and the rear has also been identified.
So when there was an accident when climbing the mountain, in order to prevent him from moving, Lin Shuo raised his bow and aimed at him.
He then turned his face and left, his current whereabouts are unknown, everyone should be careful in the future.
After saying this in English, Lin Shuo said in Chinese:
"You have also heard Li Tai'an's words, and you should judge for yourself.
Whether what he said is true or not remains to be verified, so let's not jump to conclusions now.
Let's wait until we get underground and learn more information, and then we'll add it up.
In addition, don't worry, his so-called prompt, what is Kowloon, I already have the answer in my heart.
I came to Eastern Europe this time, on the one hand, to deal with the affairs of the Queen Mother of the West, and on the other hand, to verify the answer in my heart.
Once verified, I will not only explain it to you, but also show it to the world.
And if I unfortunately die halfway, and you have a chance to get out alive, then you can ask my father-in-law, Mr. Miao Guangqi, for this answer.
Okay, that's all for now, rest early, and I'll keep vigil tonight. ”
