Chapter 683: Blue Face
Standing on the top of this highest mountain, although it is not real in the night, you can still see some black outlines.
Down the hill is the dirt and rocky area, full of potholes. In fact, the descent of the mountain is not too deep at all, because the altitude of this earth-rock pothole area is relatively high, and it is only less than two hundred meters shorter than the peak at Zhao Xuanji's feet.
The area was desolate and desolate, and there was a dead silence. There is only one ready-made road, a small road stepped out of the loess plain, which is the only way for the residents of the Peacock King City in the distance to communicate with the outside world.
Other than that, it's not impossible to walk, but it's all rugged dirt and rocky terrain, some of which you need to jump through, some of which require easy climbing, and in short, there are obstacles everywhere.
This is the general appearance of this area of earth and rock, which stretches for seven or eight kilometers.
At the end of the strip was the outline of a ruined city that was faintly visible in the darkness of the night, but was partially obscured by the nearby uplift of earth and rock.
"That's Peacock King City. Wei Dake said, "The city is not big, there is a long earthen fence as a wall, of course, there are gaps in many places. And between this pothole area and the earthen wall, there is a huge fault zone, which is not clear at night. ”
The fault zone is very wide, like a huge fracture cliff. At least more than 20 meters wide, the depth has reached nearly 100 meters, and if you fall, you will fall to pieces. This natural barrier is basically the natural moat of the Peacock King City.
"There is a natural stone bridge in the middle of this fault zone, and it is basically the only place where you can walk into the city. Of course, there might be other ways, but we couldn't get close to it, so we couldn't be sure, after all, there were at least two or three hundred people guarding the area. ”
In the area at your feet, there are many hard layers of soil, somewhat similar to the Loess Plateau in China. In some places, however, they are stony, staggered.
However, according to the records, the Peacock King City is a typical pure earth ground, and it is also the largest area of earth in this mountain area. A small amount of crops and pasture can be grown, and there is even a small river flowing down from the mountains further north, so it becomes a settlement.
That's pretty much it, it's so far away and it's night, it's hard to see clearly, so it's better to talk about it after getting closer. Zhao Xuanji led everyone down the mountain in a hurry, and after a while, they arrived at the pothole area with complex terrain.
It was about a kilometer parallel to the path leading to the Peacock King City, and in the distance, groups of soldiers could be seen patrolling and searching. Zhao Xuanji and the others quietly drilled into a small hole, and this hole had a total of three exits, two of which stretched far like a tunnel.
It's a wonderful place, it's really better to dodge.
I think that in the War of Resistance Against the United States outside the northern Xinjiang, the volunteers dug tunnels in all directions, so that the commander of the US army lamented - this kind of fortification, even if it is helpless.
Now the terrain is very similar to that kind of tunnel fortification, and even more so. Because the top of the excavation tunnel is open after all, but now there is a roof on top of this kind of tunnel. So even if the pursuers came with some small cannon bazookas, it would not be of much use.
At this time, everyone can finally sleep peacefully. Continue to let Wei Dake and Pan Shaoan catch up on sleep and rest, and Zhao Xuanji and Lan take turns to be on duty at night. There is no way, now that he is out of the mountain and forest terrain, the bear's perception in the jungle has been reduced again. Besides, if you want to take care of children, this kid should sleep for a while.
Wei Dake and Pan Shaoan were already embarrassed, Xindao can't always let you be on duty at night, right? But Zhao Xuanji insisted on doing so in the form of an order, and Wei Dake could only hurry to sleep.
This is not to win over feelings, in fact, it is mainly considered out of the need for battle. Now Zhao Xuanji and Lan's physical strength is undoubtedly the best, but once the war starts, especially when the shootout begins, Wei Dake and Pan Shaoan will be a powerful help.
This time, the two really got a full rest recovery. Even if the original energy and physical strength are far beyond ordinary people, the two have been asleep all the time, and deep sleep can be exchanged for deep recovery.
However, when he was on duty at night, Zhao Xuanji secretly noticed a small detail, that is, when it was his turn to replace Lan, Lan hurriedly put on his mask. Obviously, it must not be very comfortable to wear this thing all the time, so she quietly took it off for a while when she was on duty with her back to everyone at night.
In fact, she is also guilty, because how can she usually perform tasks like this for several days in a row, and she only needs to wear a mask when she shoots. Now I wear it like this every day, and the air here is dry and stuffy, and I don't even have a washing water, can I feel good?
So she also untied her mask to disperse the wind, who knew that Zhao Xuanji woke up more than ten minutes in advance, and actually saw the glimpse of her wearing a mask in a hurry. Of course, the main reason is that she is in that state of pretending to sleep at night, and she is a little wary of behind her.
I put it on in a hurry, but Zhao Xuanji still saw a little bit and was very surprised.
Gently sat next to her and whispered, "Hey, what's going on with you?"
Lan's aura suddenly became serious: "What did you see?!"
"It's nothing, it's just ......" Zhao Xuanji was a little embarrassed, "You said that if you saw your face, you would kill someone, wouldn't you be serious?"
Lan was so angry that his heart fluctuated, damn, are you admitting to seeing my face in disguise?!
His eyes stabbed Zhao Xuanji like a knife, and he was so frightened that this guy moved half a position to the side: "Don't, not really." Besides, I didn't see it clearly, it was just an outline. ”
Lan sneered angrily: "Of course what I said is serious, but there is another condition - the man who sees my face will be killed, if I don't kill him, it means that I have decided to marry him - you choose for yourself." ”
What kind of weird rule is this? Is there obsessive-compulsive disorder for looking at faces? This kind of can only be found in that kind of bloody film or novel, and Zhao Xuanji doesn't believe that he can encounter such a strange event.
Yes...... Zhao Xuanji moved half a position to the side again. "Don't make trouble, old girl, I've been married for less than a month. Besides, I really didn't see it clearly, just a little outline, no, not even the outline. ”
Lan sneered: "What did you call me just now? Didn't you always call me eldest sister before!"
Yes, I shouted "old girl" in a hurry just now.
Zhao Xuanji realized that he was showing his feet, and he was a little embarrassed.
That's right, he always thought that Lan would be very old, after all, he had been famous for so long. But just now he saw it, Lan's appearance is simply a kawaii cute sister head!
When you see such an immature face, you can't shout the word "big sister" anymore no matter what.
But that's the same as admitting one thing - you really see her face clearly!
