Chapter 288: Scenic Area
Seeing that Meng Zitao insisted on going, the army was somewhat helpless, he didn't mean to stop Meng Zitao from looking for treasures, but he was really worried and encountered some crises that were difficult to solve by manpower
So, he proposed another Jianyì and asked Meng Zitao if he wanted to listen to Zheng Lao's opinion.
Meng Zitao waved his hand: "Dajun, I also know that you are for my good, but I have carefully thought about this matter, and there will definitely be no problems." β
As he spoke, he said to himself, "If I don't go, there will be a problem." β
In fact, Meng Zitao originally planned to go to look for treasures after the auction on April 19, but during this time, he always had a bad feeling in his heart, as if he would not get the treasure if he went later.
Meng Zitao couldn't figure out whether this was his own overthinking, or whether the sixth sense in the dark gave him a warning, but there was a way to believe that it existed, not to believe that it was not, he thought about it, but he was still not at ease, so he made this decision.
What's more, when he set off, that bad feeling was reduced a lot, and when he arrived in Jianzhou, that feeling disappeared.
Originally, Meng Zitao was only half-convinced at best, but now he has at least half of the sixth sense. But because it's the sixth sense, it's definitely not convenient to take it out and tell the army.
For Meng Zitao's answer, the army could only accept it.
In fact, the reason why the army did not force it, in addition to believing that Han Mengzitao would not act arbitrarily, the most important thing was that, as Mencius said, the organs he had encountered before were quite rare. Besides, Meng Zitao is going to hunt for treasure, not to fight upside down, so he should not encounter such a bad situation.
Otherwise, even if it affects the relationship between the two, for the safety of Meng Zitao. He will also report the matter, this is not his hypocrisy, but the past experience is too unforgettable.
The next day. The friends of the army came to the hotel as promised.
Dajun's friend's surname is Ou Mingqian, and he is about thirty-five or sixteen years old. However, he has dark skin and looks old, and he may be younger in real age. He is nearly 1.9 meters tall, which can be described as a tiger's back, and his temperament and demeanor can be seen as a soldier at a glance.
Because of his hobbies, Ou Qian opened an outdoor store in the local area, basically many well-known outdoor goods brands. He's got it all here.
Moreover, he himself is also a senior traveler, and he is also quite famous among travelers in China, which in turn has also driven the business of his store. Because of this, in addition to accounting, he basically doesn't care about things in the store, and basically spends a lot of time exploring in the wild. If it weren't for the relationship with the army this time, he might have gone to Shudu to explore.
After a brief introduction to the two sides, Ou Qian asked, "The equipment is now in the car." Would you like to bring it up?"
The army looked at Meng Zitao, and then said, "No need, let's talk about it in the car later." That's right. Did you bring anything else?"
"Brought. β
As he spoke, Ou Qian opened a cloth bag he was carrying, only to see that there were some daggers of different sizes and a small compound crossbow inside.
Dajun took out the contents of the bag and checked them one by one, and handed two of them to Meng Zitao, and then smiled: "The quality is still the same as always." β
Ou Qian smiled: "That is, I am a well-known child. β
At this time, Meng Zitao was checking the dagger in his hand, and the two daggers were very famous. One is a military thorn, and the other is a small bear claw.
Relative to the military spur. Meng Zitao was more concerned about the bear claw, this dagger was different from the usual dagger. It only has a full-toothed blade, which is extremely lethal, and the wound cannot be completely healed! And when it comes into contact with the human body, it seems to produce a bite force, cutting to the end.
One can imagine how cruel it would be when such a dagger pierced the enemy's body and then pulled it down.
Perhaps because he was happy to hunt, Meng Zitao picked up the bear claw and tried to wave it a few times, not only did a cold light flash in the air, but there was also a sound of breaking the sky.
This made Ou Qian's expression change when he was speaking, this is not something that anyone can make such an action, if it is really used on the body, it is likely to be fatal with one blow.
"This Brother Meng is ......" As soon as he said this, Ou Qian immediately reacted: "I'm sorry, you just didn't ask me." β
"There's nothing you can't ask, I'm now in charge of Meng Shao's safety. The army smiled, he had already told Meng Zitao about Ou Qian's identity before, so he just briefly introduced it.
Ou Qian was a little stunned, and hurriedly said sorry to Meng Zitao, and muttered in his heart, with Meng Zitao's skills, what do you need bodyguards for?
Meng Zitao smiled, and then said, the time is not too early, should you go.
The army and Ou Qian had no objections, and the group went downstairs to settle the bill, and then got on Ou Qian's off-road vehicle and set off towards the destination.
After getting into the car, everyone began to chat, during which Ou Qian, who was familiar with Lishan, introduced a lot of relevant experience to Meng Zitao, as well as how to deal with emergencies, which made Meng Zitao feel that he benefited a lot.
Ou Qian said: "Actually, the summer and autumn of each year is the most suitable time, not to mention anything else, the temperature at night is still relatively low. β
Meng Zitao said: "I also expected this. β
Ou Qianyan didn't say much more about this aspect when he heard this, and said: "It should be noon when we go over there today, I can go to Shunwangping to enjoy the scenery first, stay there for one night, and then set off tomorrow." β
Meng Zitao nodded and said, "Yes." β
After a long journey, the car entered the winding mountain road in the Lishan Scenic Area. Drive about a dozen kilometers along the winding mountain road to Huanggu Mantle. Huanggu Mantle is already on the edge of the primeval forest, and Mencius is preparing to travel to the primeval forest through GuΓ².
Because he had agreed to Ou Qian's construction, he drove along the winding mountain road to Shunwangping.
Huanggu Mantle to Shunwangping winding mountain road, 180 degrees of curves increased significantly, which makes Ou Qian have to reduce the speed to about 30km, if it is a holiday, up and down the mountain vehicles often meet at the sharp bends, the scene is really thrilling, fortunately there are mirrors at almost every turn, to also reduce the risk of driving.
After about 30 kilometers, the car arrived at Shunwangping Scenic Area. After getting off the bus, the group first checked in for accommodation at the tourist service office. There are two types of accommodation, one is a standard room. The other is a log cabin, choose a log cabin to live in, and everyone goes straight to the farmhouse restaurant on the right side of the entrance.
Meimei had a lunch. Then I took the scenic bus to the intersection of the mountaineering intersection, and then. Climb along the stone road to the top of the mountain, Shunwangping.
The reason why it is called Shunwangping is because it is said that this is the place where Emperor Shun cultivated in ancient times, the lawn is surrounded by lofty mountains, lush trees, mountain springs flowing, and waterfalls splashing mist.
About thirty or forty minutes later, everyone climbed Shunwangping, and the top of Shunwangping was far from being as flat as expected. Instead, it is a rolling hill at the top of a cliff, except that it is dressed in orange and yellow.
Because of this, as far as the eye can see, Shunwangping is like a huge and gorgeous silk fluttering in the wind, stretching to the sky, and the magnificent scenery makes people feel refreshed and happy.
Everyone followed the furrow, and before they knew it, they came to the edge of the cliff and looked far away. One mountain range after another stretched for hundreds of miles in the clouds.
In addition, on the grassy slope in the north of the Shunwangping Scenic Area in Lishan. There is a row of stone walls made of natural stones, of varying heights, and one of them is a monkey-shaped stone that stands out, and the locals call this scene "Monkey Gazing at the Moon".
All these things made Meng Zitao can't help but sigh with emotion, the creation of nature is miraculous.
Speaking of which, in addition to the scenery on Shunwangping, it is not that there are no animals. For example, on the lawn, hundreds of cows are grazing happily. And when I went around the whole Pingding, I only saw one villager grazing his cattle. This made Meng Zitao feel quite curious.
So, Meng Zitao couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Big brother." Are all these cows yours?"
The villagers were very talkative, and said directly: "There are only two ends in my house. β
Meng Zitao felt strange: "Then whose family are the other cows? Why did everyone think of putting the cattle here?"
The villagers laughed and said, "The other cattle belong to these nearby villages, and there are also those who have them." β
Meng Zitao asked the question in his heart again: "Then why didn't they come to herd the cattle?"
Villager: "We don't have to let the cow here, just catch it up and let it graze by itself." As for why you come here to graze cattle, there is a lot of grass here, and there are more than a dozen kinds of Chinese herbs growing here. After the cow is eaten, it is both disease prevention and fattening, so will you put the cow here in lie?"
Meng Zitao and Dajun both thought it was amazing, and asked, "Then why did you come here?"
The villager said, "You probably haven't raised cows, because cows actually need to eat salt, so I have to come up and feed them salt in ten or eight days." β
Meng Zitao asked again: "Except for feeding the salt, no one cares about the rest of the time?"
The villager replied: "Don't worry about it, you will catch up after ploughing the land, and it will take four or five months to bring it back." β
"What if the cow wants to drink water?"
"There is a spring in the mountain, and the cows will find it themselves. β
"Didn't the cow go anywhere else? Can you recognize yourself with so many cows?"
"Why don't you recognize it? Over the years, no one's cattle have walked around, they have just grazing in front of themselves, and they have never lost their cattle. β
In the end, although Meng Zitao solved most of the doubts in his heart, the fact that the cow did not walk around really made him feel quite novel, could it be that the cattle here also inherited some of Shun's good qualities?
Next, all the way to the beautiful scenery, about five o'clock, everyone back to the cabin, after a rest, a beautiful dinner.
At night, light rain falls in the sky, which makes the night at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters very cold, and some people even wear thin cotton clothes or down jackets.
In addition, this also made Meng Zitao a little worried in his heart, if the rain goes down like this, or it gets heavier, this trip will be troublesome.
Fortunately, when he woke up the next day, Meng Zitao found that the rain had stopped, the sky was so blue, and the air was so clean and fresh.
After breakfast, everyone took the car back, came to Huangguman, everyone went to solve the problem of accommodation first, booked a room, and began to prepare luggage.
Ou Qian asked, "You really don't want me to accompany you?"
Dajun patted Meng Zitao on the shoulder: "What do you want?"
Meng Zitao came back to his senses, shook his head with a smile and said, "It's nothing, what did you just say?"
Ou Qian repeated what he had just said.
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Brother Ou, no need, we can do it ourselves." β
In fact, Ou Qian also had some guesses in his heart. However, it is inconvenient for him to ask more about this kind of thing, since Meng Zitao does not need him to go, then he will not say anything. Nodding his head, he said, "Okay, then you guys will check the equipment again." See if there's anything else you need?"
Due to the consideration of Meng Zitao's safety, the army asked Ou Qian to prepare a full range of equipment, such as sportswear, hiking shoes, trekking poles, backpacks, tents, tents, lights, sleeping bags, food, etc.
As for the weight brought by the abundance of things, it was not a problem for Meng Zitao and the army.
As soon as QiΔ was ready, Mencius Tao and the army, under the guidance of Ou Qian, began to go deep into the primeval forest.
The elevation of Huanggu Mantle is 2134 meters. It is the second largest peak in Lishan, and it is the place where the two concubines of Emperor Shun (Empress E) live and live in the legend, and it is named because it is often misty and misty, forming a tent curtain.
The mountains here are majestic, the strange rocks are numerous, the ancient forest is dense, the vines are intertwined, it is nothing to walk on the path of the scenic spot, after entering the forest, it is difficult to walk. There are no roads here. As the two of them walked, they had to cut down the vines on their way from time to time, and the speed was much slower than at the beginning, of course.
Fortunately. This qiΔ was not difficult for Mencius and the army. Among the two, one has infinite strength, quick action, and because of the aura, there is basically no consumption. The other is well-trained, even in the primeval forest, there is a feeling of walking on the ground.
But this also made Meng Zitao very happy, because he was now almost certain of the location of the treasure. It should be in this primeval forest.
In order to save the body, in addition to recognizing the way. The army basically didn't talk to Meng Zitao, and Meng Zitao didn't find it boring. Because he can just learn some field skills from the army, and because he has a good brain, coupled with super skills, it didn't take long to learn the things that the army showed.
An hour later, Meng Zitao took out a map and compass and other equipment to compare, this time for the need to hunt for treasure, he asked Shu Ze for a map of this area, although it could not be particularly detailed, but it also helped him a lot.
Meng Zitao looked around, pointed to the northwest direction and said, "Let's go, it should be over there, I hope we can get there at noon." β
The army nodded, and then quickly opened the way ahead.
Speaking of which, Meng Zitao really admired the army very much, not to mention anything else, the army did not show any tiredness after walking down the mountain road for an hour, and the breathing sound was not very rapid, as if it had little effect on him at all.
More than twenty minutes later, the army suddenly waved his hand: "Stop!"
Meng Zitao immediately stopped: "What's wrong?"
Dajun said with a stern face: "There seem to be traces of human activity in front." β
Meng Zitao was shocked when he heard this: "How can there be people here, it won't be the legendary savages, right?"
Meng Zitao is not completely joking when he says this, because there is a savage valley here, so far, there are 7 mountain people who have witnessed the traces of savages here, and the locals call him the mountain man, tall, fat, with long hair, gray pale yellow or gray-white, concave eyes and flat mouth, long shoulders and broad feet, walking with weight, and great strength.
If it was before, Meng Zitao would not have believed in the existence of savages, but since the last time he heard that there was such a thing as shark tears, he couldn't help but think about it more.
"You wait here, I'll take a look. The army took out the crossbow and cautiously approached it, about a few tens of meters ahead, before stopping and bending down.
After a while, Meng Zitao saw that the army waved his hand to him, and walked over: "How is it?"
The army pointed to the shoe marks on the ground and said, "There should be five people on the other side, coming from the northeast, if they don't deviate from the direction, no accident, they should pass through the place where we went." β
Meng Zitao's face was a little gloomy, because it was obviously unlikely to be so coincidental, the place where the other party was going happened to pass by the location of the treasure, that is to say, the other party was likely to go for the treasure.
Thinking that there is still a group of people who know the treasure and may be the first to get there, Mencius Tao's mood can't be better, because unless the other party is killed, if the other party finds the treasure, can he still get a piece of the pie?
But obviously, it is unrealistic to kill people or get a piece of the pie.
Fortunately, Meng Zitao has not messed up now, and knows the truth that knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, so he asked: "What details did they leave behind? For example, what equipment did they bring, how long ago did they pass through here, is it possible for us to surpass them?"
Dajun thought for a moment and said, "Judging from the traces at the scene, they should not have been gone for long. In addition, there are five of them, and their speed is already limited, and one of them is small, if we are fast, we should be able to surpass them. β
Meng Zitao couldn't wait to say, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go quickly,"
However, he had just taken a few steps when a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he asked out loud, "Dajun, are you sure that one of them is very thin?"
The army stopped: "The odds are high, what's the matter?"
Meng Zitao shook his head: "It's nothing, it shouldn't be so coincidental." β
Dajun said very strictly: "Meng Shao, now we can be in the field, we can't be sloppy, if you have relevant information, it's better to say it." β
Meng Zitao nodded and said: "That's the case, yesterday when our car passed by the Huanggu Man, I vaguely saw a somewhat familiar person, but I can't remember where I saw it, just now I remembered, that person seems to be one of the three killers who assassinated me at the beginning, you say, will it be ......"
