Chapter Forty-Seven: The Ruins of the Dragon Gate
Turning over a small hill, this is still a hilly area, and what catches your eye is a towering ridge, which is the highest peak of the West Mountain.
Xiao Feng looked up, and saw that the mountainside was already covered by clouds and mist, and it was completely impossible to see where the Longmen ruins were.
"It's so high, where are we going to climb?" Zhao Xiyue held her waist and looked at the mountain, a little timid.
"I don't know, I'm not sure where the Longmen Ruins are, so I'll have to look for it while crawling" Xiao Feng picked up the sapper shovel inserted in the ground and continued to walk up.
Fortunately, the road up the mountain is quite smooth, and Huo Sanye's mining team dug out a winding path, which should be to facilitate the transportation of things up, and the whole road is like a dirt road winding up the mountain.
On both sides of the road are tall pine trees, and the fallen pine needles are sparsely paved on the dirt road, and there is a hard texture on them, which arouses Zhao Xiyue's interest and is very happy about it.
"Eat?" Xiao Feng took out two compressed biscuits from his backpack and handed one to Zhao Xiyue.
In the absence of food in the wild, this compressed biscuit is a good choice to satisfy hunger, although the taste is not too good, but it contains a lot of energy to maintain the body's required consumption.
Zhao Xiyue was obviously a little tired and didn't want to speak, then compressed the biscuits and stuffed them into her mouth, and frowned after tasting it, there is no doubt that she tasted this kind of food = food that is difficult to swallow.
Xiao Feng smiled, handed her a bottle of water, looked at her expression, and even felt a little cute, "Let's eat it, although the taste is not as good as your potato chips, but if you are hungry, the physical exertion of climbing the mountain will be great." ”
"Okay" Although he looked reluctant, there was nothing else to satisfy his hunger at the moment, so he had to swallow this mineral water slowly.
I don't know how many mountain passes I have turned, the vegetation in front of me has turned into low shrubs, and the tall pine trees are sparse, and suddenly Xiao Feng found a bag of quick-hot rice that he had eaten.
The bag is obviously new, with English written on it, and the magic of this instant food lies in the heating packet inside, which can convert chemical energy into heat energy by pouring water, which can heat the food very quickly.
It seems that these people are very well prepared, maybe they have been looking for it nearby for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity, otherwise Xiao Feng doesn't know how to explain Huo Sanye's mining team just discovered this place and there was this group of uninvited guests.
Xiao Feng stepped forward and put his fingers into the bag, it was completely cold, and his heart tightened, it seemed that the group of people had been passing by here for a long time.
"We have to hurry," Xiao Feng looked solemn and turned his head to Zhao Xiyue and said.
"Okay" Zhao Xiyue could feel how much Xiao Feng attached importance to this matter, and hurriedly followed.
After being afraid for another hour and a half, the two of them had reached two-thirds of the mountain, surrounded by a mist like a light veil, and the Xishan Village under the mountain was completely invisible, and they could only see the big national highway before they met the spirit snake in the distance, like a white ribbon falling on the cyan mountain.
Zhao Xiyue is a girl after all, at this time she can't climb at all, holding a pine stick, step by step, her originally ruddy lips are a little dry and white.
"Hey, women are really troublesome" Xiao Feng sighed, turned around and took Zhao Xiyue's hand.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Xiyue saw Xiao Feng so suddenly, and suddenly lost her face, thinking that Xiao Feng was going to do something in this wilderness while she was exhausted.
"Don't move, I'll carry you!" Xiao Feng is a martial artist after all, this road is nothing to him, if he goes down at Zhao Xiyue's speed, it is estimated that the daylily will be cold, and he decided that it would be better to trouble her on his own back.
"This ......" Zhao Xiyue knew that she was dragging Xiao Feng's hind legs, and she inevitably felt some self-blame in her heart, which was written on her face and was seen by Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng directly pulled her arm, turned her body and put her on her back, and muttered: "Don't do this, just say if you can't walk, I'm not carrying you in vain, just make me a cow and a horse, you have to run faster when you hand over tea and water in the back, of course, if you promise me, I can also consider it." ”
Xiao Feng didn't want Zhao Xiyue to blame herself too much, so he joked.
"Die!" Xiao Feng's plan really succeeded, Zhao Xiyue didn't want to say any thank you to him for a moment, and stretched out his hand and pinched his waist.
Although it didn't hurt, Xiao Feng still screamed symbolically, feeling the soft oppression that would come from every step on his back, Xiao Feng muttered to himself: "It's really not small." ”
The two of them were not bored talking and laughing all the way, seeing that there was a natural flat stone platform not far from the turn in front of them, Xiao Feng decided to go there to rest, although he was not tired, but it was good to put Zhao Xiyue down and move, so as not to numb her legs.
But as soon as he turned the corner and arrived at the stone platform, before Xiao Feng could raise his head, Zhao Xiyue shouted.
"Xiao Feng, look!"
Zhao Xiyue was very excited, because she really saw the ruins of the Dragon Gate, in the distance blocked by shrubs, a gray building looked a little quaint and mysterious among the clouds.
Xiao Feng's heart was shocked, and he suddenly became interested, and when he raised his head, he saw the ruins of the Dragon Gate that he had been thinking about.
Where can I take care of resting now, Xiao Feng directly quickened his pace and walked up.
The closer he got, the more apprehensive and uneasy Xiao Feng felt in his heart, whether it was the dragon on his shoulder or not, he didn't know, but he felt like he had walked for a long time in a short distance.
Push aside the last bush and it's finally here!
Standing on the wide flat ground of the mining field, Xiao Feng looked ahead, the stone gate in front of him was about seven meters high and about five meters wide, the gray stone was similar to granite, but the color was different, this stone color was darker, and it looked very different on the green shrub-covered mountain.
Slowly approaching, the blue-gray stone door was two together, and the dragon that had been mighty was carved in the middle, the moment he saw it, Xiao Feng's heart was shocked, but then his face became gloomy.
I saw that this relief has long horns and sharp whiskers on the dragon, and the dragon body is thick, but the dragon horns are outward, and the dragon claws are four claws, and there is no eye.
It's just a four-clawed yellow dragon.
Seeing that Xiao Feng didn't show any excitement just now, Zhao Xiyue was very puzzled, and didn't know whether to ask him.
After being silent for a long time, she couldn't help it, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?"
"It's not what I'm looking for, it's just a yellow dragon" Xiao Feng said slowly, looking lonely.
"Huh, then what dragon are you looking for?" Zhao Xiyue then understood why Xiao Feng was disappointed when he saw this Dragon Gate Ruins.
Xiao Feng didn't answer her, just slowly pulled off the outdoor clothes, pulled down violently, and saw a five-clawed golden dragon with open eyes that seemed to soar up on his shoulder, lifelike, and that pair of eyes seemed to be able to directly see through people's souls.
Such a sudden behavior made Zhao Xiyue open her cherry mouth wide, and her eyes were dilated.
"This dragon...... As if alive. ”
