Chapter 138: The Reason for the Interruption of the River
As the wind and rain stopped in the evening, it seemed that this most dangerous part of the mountain road had once again been hit by hail, and the ice ballast on the ground was slowly melting.
Lao Sun slowly drove the tricycle into the mountain road, and after entering the rocks, he stopped, and sprayed the word "out" on the rock wall with the half can of spray paint.
The situation inside the col didn't seem to have changed much, it was still as familiar as last time.
Lu Yunfan bent down and grabbed the back of the tricycle, looked at the mountain col, and looked down from above, and could even see the magical old tree downstream of the dry riverbed.
The tricycle slowly circled the huge rock that had protruded out and entered the leeward area, as if the whole world was safe.
The tricycle was parked, and the three jumped out of the car. Lao Sun took the half can of spray paint and staggered the word "in", and then wrote the words "wind and care" later, but in the end, the spray paint ran out, and the careful heart became an unregular "child" under his crooked glyph.
When Lu Yunfan saw it, his scalp immediately went numb, and since he entered here, he had been looking for the figure of a child below, expecting to see it, but he was afraid that he would see it, and it was inevitable that he would be a little nervous.
snatched the spray paint in Lao Sun's hand and shook it vigorously, wanting to make up for the two points, which would not serve as a warning to others at all, but might make people confused.
Lao Sun was stunned for a moment, and said irritably: "It's gone, I'll go find a white stone to make up for it." ”
"How can the white one be written together with the red one, if it can't be eye-catching, it won't play its due role. Lu Yunfan knocked the can of paint on the stone wall a few times, but it still didn't come out at all, so he picked up a stone on the ground, and actually wanted to smash the iron can open.
"Well, I said, do you need to do this, I'll break you open with a sledgehammer. Although Zhang Zhang didn't understand why he was so paranoid, he still planned to accommodate him, took out the hammer from the back of the tricycle, raised his foot and kicked Lu Yunfan, asked him to move aside, and smashed it down with a hammer.
The entire bottom of the spray can fell off, and Lu Yunfan squatted down and dipped his fingers in some red paint, laboriously filling up the two points of the "heart".
This huge rock sticks out like a piece of squeezed out of a mountain peak, like a sharp tooth of the mountain, but it can block hurricanes, and has the function of incisors that sharp teeth do not have.
There was no hurricane danger behind this rock, and even if the wind was strong, it was blown through the col, not so big as to blow people away.
"There is no danger going forward, but there is still about four or five kilometers to go, and the wind is not light, so I will bring two more cans another day and write a slogan three or five hundred meters away, so that nothing goes wrong." ”
"No, that's enough. Lu Yunfan was unusual, completely different from the calculations just now.
Lao Sun was surprised and asked, "Why is this?"
"Haven't you heard the story of the wolf? If people come to see the warning but don't have a hurricane crisis, they will think that the sign has no real value at all, and this sentence is enough. ”
After Lu Yunfan finished speaking, he walked to the side of the road again, and looked down along the stairs on the side of the road, it was impossible to see the lowest rock wall here, and it was also impossible to see the hole, even the small branches on the rock wall were completely blocked by weeds.
Their final task was completed, and Zhang Li and Lao Sun were ready to return, but they saw that Lu Yunfan had been looking towards the col below, so they also followed over and looked down.
"There used to be a river below, but for some reason over the years, the water upstream has been cut off, and there used to be a small waterhole at the bottom of the mountain, but now it is dry. Lao Sun glanced at it and said.
"How come I've never heard of it?" asked Zhang Li, turning his head.
"It's only been a long time since you've been here, and if you think about it, it's been about ten years, and it's almost after the road was built. ”
Lao Sun held his cheeks and thought about it for a while, nodded affirmatively, and continued: "Well, that's right, when this road was being built, the engineering team sent by the province opened the mountain and built the road here. ”
Lu Yunfan was taken aback, and asked with a condensed brow, "Was this a river or a stream before?"
"Stream, don't be funny, the water has reached the grass, at least seven or eight meters deep. Fourteen or fifteen kilometers along the road we came from, there used to be a waterfall and a deep pool at the bottom, where I used to play when I was a teenager, but now it's dry. Strange to say, after the pool of water dried up, a statue of Bodhisattva was revealed behind the waterfall, and it turned green after soaking under the water for I don't know how long. ”
"At first, we thought it was a stone Buddha statue, but then we scraped off a little of the green hair on the outside, and found that it was actually wood, which had not been soaked, and the wood was very hard, different from ordinary wood. It's been a few years now, and the green hair on the outside of the Buddha statue has been washed away by the wind and rain, and it looks more like iron. ”
Lao Sun looked at the two of them with some disbelief, pointed to the way and said: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not talking nonsense, if you don't believe it, I'll take you there now, but it's more troublesome to go down the mountain, the tricycle can't get down, we have to go over the path." ”
"When you speak, every sentence has an element of bragging, we can always doubt it, right?" Zhang Zhang raised his eyebrows, turned his head and stopped looking at him, and set his eyes on Lu Yunfan's face, whose face became more and more solemn.
"Hey, Xiaofan, I saw that you were looking down just now, did you fall something, your girlfriend brought us two more ropes just before we came, why don't we go down and look for it?"
Lu Yunfan stretched his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Li with a smile.
"What do you say? If something had fallen, I would have taken it back myself, it's nothing, why don't we go and see the Buddha statue?"
Because the things in the cave below have not yet figured out what is going on, if the matter is publicized, it is likely to cause trouble for themselves again, so when they arrived at the cycling station, no one said anything about falling into the col, in case they said that the news in the cave was leaked out, and it was inevitable that some people would go down to explore without seeing money.
Come and go, everything here will be announced to the public, and the little thing in their hands will not want to hide their secrets, maybe it will also provoke the evil hearts of some indiscriminate people, and then the baby will lose the matter, and it will not be fun to protect the small life.
The big fish in Xiyu Lake is already a lesson from the past, how fast Wang Fatzi's hand stretched, he can be regarded as a teacher, and people at that level are not at all what he can provoke now.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, Lu Yunfan pulled tension forward, and Lao Sun found a spacious place in front of him to turn the tricycle around, and then rushed over.
The speed of the tricycle was still too slow, and when they came to the place where Lao Sun said that they were going down the mountain, the sun was already about to set, and the sunset reflected half of the sky, and even the thick rolling dark clouds were also red.
The path down the mountain is very hidden, if it is not for the old grandson to lead the way, you can't find this place on the road at all, the road is pitiful, it can only accommodate one person, and two people can't do it.
After walking more than ten meters, the sky was already dark, and the speed of darkness made Lao Sun a little worried, so he stopped and said to the two: "Otherwise, let's come back tomorrow, it's too fast." ”
"What, you're afraid you won't be able to get out?" Lu Yunfan asked.
"I've walked this way many times, so it's going to be fine!"
"Then what do you bother to do, hurry up and lead the way!" Zhang Zhang urged at the rear, the path was very steep, and the height difference of three or four meters was more than half a meter, so the tension looked unusually tall at the rear.
Coupled with his little temper, if three people are not careful, they will have to collide with each other, which is very dangerous.
Therefore, Lao Sun didn't dare to talk back to him, sighed, and said leisurely: "That's not what it means, although the road is not far, but we will definitely be dark when we go to the end, and we have no light source, even if we get to the place, there is no way to take a good look at what the Bodhisattva statue looks like." ”
"Shall we go faster, then? Or are you just bragging to the two of us?" Zhang Zhang saw him grinding and chirping, and he was really a little angry.
Knowing that it was going to be dark, he still had to push back and forth here, judging from the old grandson he knew, there must be something wrong with this guy.
But Lu Yunfan listened to these words, this was originally very reasonable, not to mention that it was easy to go down the mountain, it was completely dark when the sky was dark, how should they come up? Even if Lao Sun was familiar with the road and could lead the way in front, he and Zhang Li were not familiar with it, the dark clouds in the sky covered the sky, and there must be no moonlight to illuminate it.
Thinking of the possible accidents, Lu Yunfan first thought of Lin Miao's advice before separation, so he made a decisive decision.
"Lao Zhang, go back, tomorrow morning, let's come early, and after dinner today, we can study how to transform this route." ”
"Do you really want to go back?" Listening to Lu Yunfan's decision, Zhang Li was a little disappointed, his spirit of adventure was super strong, and he had never been afraid of any harsh environment, so he returned in vain, which made him feel a little unwilling in his heart.
"Let's go back, be proper, it's also responsible for your family, and we can't always let them worry about us. As he spoke, Lu Yunfan turned around and pushed the tension and walked backwards, but as soon as he came into contact with the tension, Lu Yunfan realized that their position was not safe, so the power in his hand instantly became torn off.
But Zhang Li thought that he had been completely pushed by Lu Yunfan, and by the time he realized that it was not good, his heavy body had lost its balance and fell directly backwards towards Lu Yunfan.
Lu Yunfan didn't expect such a thing to happen, Zhang Li's body was full of muscles, although it was far less than strong, but it was extremely heavy, which he could hold up without defense.
Seeing his huge body fall, Lu Yunfan had no choice but to turn around quickly, hoping to use the strength of his back to block the tension and continue to fall. If he didn't block it, the bottom Lao Sun would be even more unable to block it, the two of them had already weighed more than three hundred pounds, and they had to shrink their bodies into the safest posture.
So the screams continued, I don't know if they were lucky, or Lao Sun's rich experience played a role, the three of them seemed to roll and stumble in an orderly manner, but they didn't fall out of the path.
On the left side of the path is a strip of weeds, and beyond that are small steps-like cliffs, each of which has a place to grasp, but there is no guarantee that you will be able to survive if you fall down.
