Chapter 217: Lonely Cliff
Hearing this, Liang Chen was silent for a moment before frowning and asking, "Hua Lao, where did you pick it up?"
"Just under a lonely cliff behind Taibai Mountain, Liang Chen, do you think the grave keeper will ...... Could it be near the Lonely Cliff? If that's the case, aren't we wasting time here?"
Hua Lao thought about it, hurriedly called back to the archaeological team members, and said in a deep voice: "That tomb keeper is not easy to deal with, do you want to apply for police assistance? Although this mountain range is desolate, there is really a murder case, and it is not a joke, is it?"
"No, if you apply for police assistance, it will take time, and there are too many people, and the target is too big, and the grave keeper is the king of the mountains, with many ears and eyes...... In case it is self-defeating, give the fat man to ...... We can't take this risk, and this time we go to rescue the fat man, you can't go with you, just go with Qianyu!"
Liang Chen glanced at the archaeological team members present, recently between the dragon vein and the ancient tomb, too many people have died, I really don't want to see anyone have another accident, after careful consideration, Liang Chen immediately said to everyone: "This time, thanks to you for saving our lives at a critical juncture, this kindness, I Liang Chen remember, but the next thing to do, is by no means as simple as catching ordinary tomb robbers, who the other party is, everyone knows very well, so please go out of the mountain first, don't wade into this troubled water!"
Hearing Liang Chen's words, Da Zhu and Lao Urine nodded slightly, and stepped back cautiously, while Xiao Maozi looked up at Brother Pao, who had a cigarette in his mouth, sneered, and said: "Brother, you are out of the way!" Although we were not born and died together, since we met, my Brother Pao respects you as a friend who can be made, I won't say anything else, but as long as my brother Pao is a friend, even if he goes to the soup, he will not hesitate, your brother is also my brother, I don't care if others go or not, but I must go!"
"Brother Pao, you ......"
Liang Chen immediately hesitated, looking at Brother Pao's indifferent expression, as if he had already decided. Zhuo Yinan, who was on the side, didn't say a word from beginning to end, but her eyes stayed on Liang Chen's body, and the meaning was self-evident. Liang Chen suddenly smiled: "Okay! With Brother Pao by my side, I am also a little more sure!"
"Plus you Brother Zhuo, isn't it a perfect score?!"
Zhuo Yinan grinned and stared at Liang Chen with a playful expression: "I was saved by your kid last time, I am worried about how to pay it back to you, you must know that my Brother Zhuo does not owe favors to others casually, and I have made up my mind for your favor!"
Let's say it, Zhuo Yinan and Brother Pao turned around and walked to Liang Chen's side, and the few people on the opposite side seemed to quickly divide into two camps.
Hua Lao just wanted to speak, but Liang Chen hurriedly interrupted his words: "Hua Lao, don't go, if it's to explore the ancient tomb, even if you don't go, I'm going to drag your encyclopedia over, but this matter is too dangerous, so I won't take you, hehe!"
"You kid......"
Hua Lao shook his head with a wry smile, then nodded again, and said with a smile: "Okay, you guys, there are not many people in the essence, we will go out of the mountain first, and wait for your good news in the town, Liang Chen, I have only one request for you, how many people enter the mountain, how many people must go out of the mountain, and not a single hair can be missing, you know?"
"Gotta get it!"
Liang Chen smiled and saluted, and everyone immediately laughed.
Although everyone laughed happily, everyone's hearts knew very well what Liang Chen and his party would face next, the tomb keepers who had been dormant in the Qinling Mountains for thousands of years, they had beliefs that the world could not understand, in the inaccessible mountains, they slept in the open air, drank blood, were familiar with the survival laws of all things in Zhou Tian, and could manipulate the beasts at will, they were like the kings of nature, with the power to rule everything!
For ordinary people, this is a harsh environment, with tens of thousands of poisonous insects and beasts, as well as those invisible and untouchable underground monsters, but in the eyes of those tomb keepers, this seems to be their paradise, they belong here, so they will desperately defend everything here!
Before leaving, Liang Chen glanced meaningfully at the place where the dragon vein was located.
According to the location marked on the dragon vein map, the imperial dragon vein was almost close at hand, but at this time, Liang Chen knew that he could not explore any further, and he had to rescue the fat man immediately. Whether or not the Imperial Dragon Vein is still there, it will still be a mystery, a mystery that is difficult to solve!
Three hours later, a group of people appeared on the mountainside of Xitai Baiao Mountain one after another, looking at the white snow on the top of the mountain, as well as the clear blue and white snow line, Hua Lao slowly turned his head and said to Liang Chen again: "No matter what, you must come out alive, we are waiting for you outside the mountain, only give you three days, if you don't come back, I will apply for the police to intervene and start a large-scale search operation!"
Hearing this, Liang Chen turned his head and glanced at the eastern sky, at this moment the eastern sky has gradually whitened, this is a new day, symbolizing that everything has the opportunity to start over. But Liang Chen couldn't be happy, because the fat man's life was still in the hands of the tomb keeper Qu Ziwu, frowning, Liang Chen secretly muttered: "Why did Qu Ziwu arrest the fat man? instead of killing people?"
"Let's go!"
Since he couldn't think of a reason, it was better to stay on the road and think slowly, Liang Chen greeted Brother Pao and Zhuo Yinan, and said goodbye to Hua Lao.
Hua Lao said lightly, in fact, the lonely cliff behind Taibai Mountain, there are at least more than ten miles of mountain roads to go from Taibai Mountain, if it is a flat avenue, more than ten miles is about an hour's time, but in the mountains, facing those rugged mountain roads, more than ten miles is equivalent to a whole day for ordinary people.
It took the three of them a morning to finally come to the lonely cliff, the lonely and steep cliff, about 1,000 meters high, as if standing in the clouds.
Glancing up, Brother Pao turned his head to look at Liang Chen with more interest: "I said, you kid is not stupid! Why have you been wandering around with the grave keeper for so long, and besides, you haven't even discovered their true identity, it's really yours!"
"It's hard to put into words!"
Liang Chen had to deal with it with a wry smile: "It's just that they hide it too well, and this trap is so big and perfect, I was also disturbed by the emperor's dragon vein, and for a while I only cared about looking for the dragon vein, and I actually forgot that the danger was actually by my side." Speaking of which, I doubted their identity for a moment, but alas, I didn't hold on. ”
After speaking, Liang Chen spread his hands helplessly.
Brother Pao narrowed his eyes and smiled, then pointed to a bluestone under the cliff, and said, "The thing was picked up on it, let's look for it again, maybe there are other clues......"
"No need!"
Liang Chen stared at the bluestone tightly, and then said to Brother Pao: "Brother Pao, look, that bluestone is the clue, the person who left the thing can be described as extremely shrewd, and he took great pains! ”
Brother Pao picked up the special potion and dragon vein diagram, walked slowly to the bluestone, and then swung left and again, and finally, finally determined the last way to place it, turned his head and said to Liang Chen: "When we picked it up, it was placed like this." ”
Liang Chen walked quickly to him, slowly circled around the bluestone, and finally, in the opposite direction of the bottle of potion, stopped, and then took a look, sure enough, in front of the potion bottle was the dragon vein map, and the direction of the dragon vein map was a narrow mountain road on the left side of the lonely cliff. Seeing this, Liang Chen nodded: "I understand! The dragon vein map itself is the map used in the road, the potion bottle is below, and the dragon vein map is on the top, this way of placing it is not wrong, and what the dragon vein map points to is the direction we are looking for." ”
"Also, look at this bluestone, what's so special about it?"
Liang Chen said, turning his head to ask the two.
But seeing that Brother Pao and Zhuo Yinan all revolved around Qingshi, the two finally gave up helplessly.
"Bluestone is ordinary, it's just an ordinary bluestone, what can be so special?"
Zhuo Yinan responded with a depressed face.
Liang Chen put away the potion bottle and the dragon vein diagram on the bluestone, and then motioned for the two to climb up the hillside, and when the three of them came to the hillside, they looked condescendingly, and Brother Pao's eyes suddenly widened: "I, I understand!"
"What do you understand?"
Zhuo Yinan glanced at Brother Pao with disgust.
Brother Pao took off the cheap cigar he was holding in his mouth, and smiled solemnly: "It is said that women have long hair and short knowledge, and now I finally believe it, hehe!"
"Fuck your uncle! If you want to say it, just say it, don't say pull it down!"
Zhuo Yinan's face was grim, and he flew up and kicked Brother Pao's ass, Brother Pao hurriedly and skillfully dodged, and ran down the hill with a wicked smile, standing at the foot of the mountain, and shouted to Zhuo Yinan who was standing above: "Take a closer look, what other stones are there in the vicinity of Qingshi?"
After listening to Brother Pao's instructions, Zhuo Yinan suddenly realized, and then glanced at Brother Pao angrily: "Death! The old lady now understands that there are ordinary basalt near the bluestone, and the location of the bluestone is as obvious as standing out from the crowd, Liang Chen, you mean...... That's the clue?"
"Not bad. ”
Liang Chen nodded: "The cyan color represents the east, symbolizing the gate of vitality, and the nearby basalt symbolizes the surrounding mountains, the place we are looking for, as long as we go east, we will definitely be able to find it! But what I am curious about now is, who is helping me, why is helping me? What is the purpose of the other party? I don't know anything about this, what I am worried about is, will this be the plan of the tomb keeper?"
