Chapter 036: Exploring Taihang Mountain at Night
I got out of the hostel and flagged down a taxi.
The taxi left Andemen and drove out of the town, driving further and further away, and the road became much narrower. Overgrown weeds can be seen everywhere, and the dark foothills are gradually enveloped by the moonlight.
High-rise buildings loom in the distance, and a few faint rays of light can be seen. I guess it's almost there, so it's better to stay farther away for convenience.
I opened my mouth and said, "Master, stop here." ”
"Brother, your accent isn't local. The driver stopped the car and reminded me: "It's very remote here, and you won't be able to get in the car when you go back." ”
I handed him two red bills and said, "This is 200 yuan, I will rush back in half an hour, you can wait for me here." ”
"Okay!" the driver took the money and agreed more happily. After I got out of the car, the driver told me again: "You'd better hurry up, to be honest, it's dark and panicked here!"
I nodded and replied, "I'll do it as soon as possible." ”
I walked out of view of the taxi, and began to quicken my pace, sprinting all the way, five or six miles in a few minutes, to the heart of a valley.
The valley was darker than outside, and the faint moonlight was not worth mentioning. 100 meters away can already clearly see the outline of the Tongque platform, about ten zhang high, the platform is lined with pavilions. The top of the building is built with a bronze finch, about two zhang high, emitting a little shimmer under the moonlight, like a winged fly, the demeanor is its realistic.
Although the high platform is no longer what it used to be, and for some reason there is a bronze bird erected on the top, I still recognize it at a glance from a distance, this is the Suzaku platform of the year.
There are many searchlights arranged around Suzaku Terrace, and the figures are faintly visible. Is it really as the man said, this place has been fenced off as a military base? I wondered in my heart, squatted under the tree and thought about it, and finally decided that it was better to be careful.
I lurked through trees and grass, and walked less than ten feet away, surrounded by a large wire fence, more than three meters high. But this wire can't stop my way, so I just reach out and touch it.
"Smack!"
Suddenly, I felt my whole arm go numb, and the whole person was hit back a few steps. At the same time, there was a loud bang on the wire, accompanied by electric sparks, and there was a burst of nonsense in an instant. I endured the numbness in my arm, and when I saw that the palm of my hand was actually burned, a lot of black blood flowed out of the flesh.
"It's electricity!" I thought to myself, but I couldn't understand why it was so much stronger than the electricity on the socket that day.
"There's movement over there, go check it out!" followed the voice of the voice, and two men in uniform walked over. I crawled on the ground and slowly retreated, calculating in my mind how far I could get over the bar.
"Was that just over here?"
"I guess I was hit by a rabbit or something, and I often do this. ”
The two men exchanged a few words, and one of them used a flashlight to shine around. They had water cannons on their shoulders? I was puzzled, did they defend themselves with water? After thinking about it, I said to myself, "There must be venom in it, not water!"
"Let's go, it's getting colder and colder this night!"
I watched the two of them turn around and start walking towards other places, then I slowly stood up, took a few big strides with all my strength, and soared into the air with all my feet, directly over the three-meter-high electric bar.
"Who?" one of them shouted when he heard the commotion, and raised the water gun.
"Beep!"
"Hmm!"
When I landed, I rolled over, grabbed the man's weapon, and stunned one of them with the butt of my gun. The other person reacted at this time, and before he could pick up his weapon, I had already bullied him forward, and threw him to the ground with a clamour, my elbows locked to his head.
I whispered, "Why are there so many people guarding this wilderness?"
The man was visibly stunned, as if he hadn't understood what was going on. With a slight push on my elbow, I threatened, "Answer the question!"
The man looked at me in horror, gasping heavily, and after a few seconds, he replied with difficulty, "No, I know, I know." ”
"Huh!"
I slashed with my sword, and the man snorted and was knocked unconscious. I couldn't help but scold him a few words in my heart.
I continued to crouch on the ground, avoiding the tower lights that swept by from time to time. The twilight breeze blew, and the thatched prickly face hurt, but I didn't dare to look up too much, for fear of being discovered. Move slowly inch by inch until you reach Suzaku Terrace. I reached out and touched the wall, and my hands trembled. I know that this is the place where all my 600 soldiers in Yuzhou are buried underground.
After a moment of gloom, I continued to search under the wall, but I didn't see the White Tiger Platform where it should be, only a ruined wall and a few pillars.
It seems that the White Tiger Platform has collapsed, but what about the Ice Well Platform and the underground palace? I didn't dare to continue thinking about it, so I hurriedly got up and escaped into the darkness again.
After turning a few pavilions, suddenly there was a bright light in front of me, and I hurriedly took a step back and tipped into the corner.
"Da Da Da ......"
I poked my head out a little and saw a group of people in the same uniform walking by in order. Just ten feet away from where I was, a huge white cloth tent was set up. Outside the tent, a group of people patrolled by every few minutes, looking at the neat and uniform pace, it should be regular soldiers.
I squatted in the corner for more than 10 minutes, summing up the pattern of the patrol and the time intervals.
Right now!
I watched as a squad of six walked by, hurried to the tent, and leaned to the tent entrance, glancing cautiously inside.
There wasn't a single person in it.
I dodged into the tent and froze instantly. Inside the tent is not an ice well platform, what is it?
It's just that the years have ravaged it, and the bluestone fence on the platform no longer exists, leaving only a bare dwarf base. I slowly walked up to the stage, squatting down and stroking each bluestone brick.
"Sakura, are you okay down there?"
I nervously stood up again and looked around. I know that the entrance to the underground palace is not under the high platform, but in a direction north-east. I walked over and pulled out a few pieces of dirt, but no one had touched them. But why is it heavily guarded, or have they discovered something?
Just when my mind was in a mess, there was a sudden siren and a commotion in the crowd.
"Woo-woo-"
"Someone invades! Someone invades!"
"Wang! Wang......"
"Da Da Da ......"
There was a sound of footsteps, and I could clearly feel that a large number of people were rushing towards this side. I hurriedly got up, put my hands together and jumped out of the tent.
I didn't care too much, and under the cover of the night, I ran wildly all the way, leaving behind a vocal dog barking. If he is left behind at this time, let alone save Liu Yingying, he is afraid that he will have to die. Thinking of this, I can't help but speed up my pace.
The mountains were rugged, and I felt like a monkey that had gone mad.
"The Night is Too Beautiful"
"No matter how dangerous it is"
"There are always people who stay up all night with dark eyes"
“……”
"Smack", I slammed the car door, ran into the passenger cab, and said, "Master, I've been waiting for a long time!"
The driver was startled, stunned for a long time before relieving himself, and said with a sad face: "You can be counted as back, it's been almost an hour, if someone else left early!"
"I'm sorry!" I handed over two more red bills.
The driver saw it, but it was confiscated, and he pushed it back. I insisted on giving, but the driver said cheerfully: "Little brother, you are interesting, and I am not an insatiable person." Take it back, or you'll look down on me!"
I smiled and took back the money and thanked me again.
The taxi turned around and gradually drove out, heading towards the dim sky of Linzhang County in the northwest.
I stared blankly at the darkness in the rearview mirror, thinking to myself that I had to come a long time......
