Chapter 824: Changbai Mountain Canyon

Changbai Mountain is covered with snow all year round and is a sacred mountain in northern China. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the Book of Mountains and Seas, it is called "unsalty mountain" because in ancient times people believed that the snow on this mountain was like salt, but it was not as salty as salt, so it was called unsalty mountain.

After Li Shaoyang and others rested in Wuzhou, they took a hovercar overnight and finally came to Songting Town, a small town under Changbai Mountain.

In the Qing Dynasty, it was a northern post station, under the rule of General Ningguta, and in Songting Town, there are many relics of the Qing Dynasty.

Everyone had no intention of watching, ate something, and decided to continue to go deeper and go directly to the mission location.

Gu Mengxun took the time to contact the mercenaries who were sent by him, but he didn't get any news.

The main reason is that after those mercenaries were dispatched, they neither carried effective contact tools, nor did they leave any traces, so naturally there was no way to find them.

Li Shaoyang went to the town specifically and asked if there was a guide.

After a long time, an old man who smoked dry tobacco came out and said: "We have never had a guide in this lump, and we don't want you to go into the mountain. ”

"Monsters in the mountains?" Li Shaoyang took out a box of chocolates and a cigarette to the old man, made a good relationship, and drank a few glasses of wine together, and the old man spread out the conversation and talked about strange things in the mountains.

"In the northwest, a few young people in Dongqiao Village were idle, and they went hunting in the Grand Canyon with old guns." The old man said and took a puff of cigarette: "As a result, there was an accident as soon as I went in, and I went to seven, and only one came back, and my mouth was full of nonsense." ”

Li Shaoyang hurriedly asked, "Uncle, tell me carefully, what did the people who escaped say about it?"

The old man knocked on the cigarette stick: "It's scary, it is said that as soon as you enter the Grand Canyon, the doors at both ends of the valley are closed, both sides are blocked, and there is a layer of fog on it, and several of them are trapped in the canyon, and they have not eaten or drunk for a few days, and they encounter monsters again." ”

The old man described that the monsters that appeared in the canyon were large and small, the big ones were as tall as buildings, and the small ones could not be seen.

"That big monster is okay to say, let's just hide, the small one is even more terrifying, it specifically drilled into your stomach, the second boy of the old Wang family in the East Village, was finally turned out by hundreds of masters, and the stomach was eaten up."

Li Shaoyang recorded all the descriptions of the old man and brought them back to the base camp for everyone to hear.

"It must be the Borderlands ghost!" Gu Mengxun said with great certainty: "Maybe it's the secret weapon they researched, so it became a monster in the eyes of the villagers." ”

Siser said: "Listening to the old man's description, it seems to be a mechanical product, maybe a mechanical bug or something, but why is that canyon closed?" Blocked front and back? ”

Xue Jiansheng smiled slightly: "It's very simple to build fortifications in the mountains, and it's even easier to install a stone gate that can be closed in the canyons on both sides." ”

Li Shaoyang turned around and walked out again, this time he found the old man and spent a lot of money to buy a map and came back.

Unfolding the map, he pointed to the location of the canyon: "This map was drawn when the geological expedition came here twenty years ago, although it was very accurate back then, but it is difficult to say now, that canyon is a strange place famous in the nearby mountains, inaccessible, we first went to this mountain pass outside the canyon to camp." ”

Li Shaoyang pointed to a place called "Yingshan Pass" on the map: "The terrain here is flat, I asked, and there are a few old hunters who built a wooden house there, and now no one lives there." ”

Gu Mengxun looked at the time: "Okay, we set off at 12 o'clock, this road can't use a hovercar, we should be able to get to Yingshan Pass in about four hours, and the sun hasn't set down by then, so you can camp by the way." ”

Everyone was speechless, unloaded the available equipment, prepared and set off.

Li Shaoyang saw that the food supply that Gu Mengxun got was a kind of dry food in a square box, and couldn't help but ask about the "military food pill" of the northern group in the past.

No matter how you look at it, the military food pill invented by himself is much better than the fast food in western Zhejiang.

Gu Mengxun smiled bitterly: "Of course the military food pill is good, but Li Shaoyang invented it, since the research institute said that Li Shaoyang is a bad person, of course that kind of thing can't be left, now, there is no military food pill in Huaxia, even if there is, it is still collected by the people, and they are reluctant to eat it, and the black market price has increased more than ten times, and it has become a good thing." ”

Li Shaoyang was speechless.

They were advancing on the rugged mountain road, and Sisi'er soon became tired, so Li Shaoyang simply carried her.

For the Scorpio warriors, the journey was like play.

Everyone hurried silently, and it didn't take four hours, and it took less than two hours to come to Yingshan Pass.

This is a triangular mountain pass, with three forks on the left and right, and the Changbai Mountain Gorge is in the middle of the route, only two miles away.

At this time, they also saw a wooden house built under a hillside, surrounded by wild pine trees, and when they looked closer, they saw fields and vegetable gardens in front of the wooden house.

Although it is all barren and overgrown, it did live here before.

Xue Jiansheng took the two warriors and quietly touched the vicinity of the wooden house, and after a comprehensive inspection, he made a safe gesture.

Only then did everyone enter, and there were Scorpion warriors cleaning the wooden house, relocating the equipment, and then arranging a circle of motion sensors around the wooden house, on which low-altitude sensing radars were arranged, and finally four sentry posts were arranged in front of and behind the wooden house, and it became an impregnable base.

The sun had set, and the mountain was blinded by black lights, and only fluorescent lights were hung in the wooden house, barely getting a little light.

Everyone ate the dry food they brought, and they all felt tasteless in their mouths.

At this time, there was a burst of chirping outside, and Li Shaoyang called Xue Jiansheng: "This kind of cry sounds like a pheasant, you take two people out to try your luck, you can beat one, and we will have a good mouth." ”

Xue Jiansheng smiled, took people out, and it didn't take half an hour to drag a black goat and two sparrowhawks back.

Gu Mengxun wiped his saliva: "This is not a national protected animal, right?" ”

Xue Jiansheng snorted: "There are still protected animals this year?" Do you know how many species went extinct after the shield was built? All the high-altitude birds are gone, some aquatic animals in the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas have died due to the change of tides, some land creatures that rely on the stars and the moon to guide the way, and most of the microorganisms that survive on normal sunlight and ultraviolet rays...... We've died enough, and we've had no problem fighting them. ”

Li Shaoyang looked at the black goat, shook his head and said, "This should be raised by the village itself, but it accidentally ran out and slowly became wild." ”

Black goat meat is very tender, pure mutton flavor, and it drips oil after being roasted.

The sparrowhawk was very fat, that is, a wild pheasant that could fly, and it was dehaired and gutted, and spices were put in it, and it was picked up with cedar leaves, and it was wrapped in mud and cooked on the outside, and everyone ate it with relish.

The next morning, everyone got up.

Gu Mengxun ordered most of the members of the Scorpion Squad and Sisi'er to wait in the base of the wooden house, and she, Li Shaoyang, and Xue Jiansheng formed a group to explore the path in advance.

They walked along the mountain trail, and today the sun is shining, the snow-capped mountains reflect the strong light, and the surrounding jungle is dense, and there are all kinds of chickadees and wild deer everywhere, and the scenery is beautiful.

A thousand kilometers further, the situation in front of me changed, a deep canyon appeared in front of you, the sunlight was blocked by the mountain wall here, and the dark canyon was full of all kinds of mushrooms, damp and cold.

Gu Mengxun released a flying insect and projected electromagnetic waves to draw a 3D map.

When the flying bug returned, the 3D terrain of the entire canyon was revealed, which was 60 kilometers long, more than 300 meters wide at its widest point, and only a few meters at its narrowest point, with a vertical depth of about 150 meters.

On both sides of the canyon grow dense pine trees, the trees are straight and thick, because of the low temperature and humidity on the valley, so that the old forest is hung with old white silk, moss, mushrooms, quietly spread the color.

Especially on both sides of the canyon, especially the valley slopes on both sides of the bottom river, because of the steep terrain and years of cold weathering, the ice edge rock pillars in the canyon have been eroded by the wind and rain of the years, forming a colorful and majestic natural landscape.

That is dissolved stones, stalactites, and strange stones of various shapes.

Gu Mengxun looked at the information brought by the flying insects, and couldn't help but sigh: "You look at these strange stones, it seems that they have been deliberately moved. ”

Li Shaoyang looked down at the 3D map, and sure enough, those strange-shaped rocks were not evenly distributed, but were concentrated in the middle of the valley, which seemed to form a towering cone, which looked like a tomb in the north.

"Let's go inside." Xue Jiansheng smiled: "With the two of you here, plus me, what are you afraid of!" ”

Li Shaoyang nodded, and Gu Mengxun changed into a field suit, and even put on an invisible helmet and glasses.

Xue Jiansheng was amused: "Mr. Gu, are you afraid that there are mosquitoes in this mountain?" Wrapped so firmly. ”

Gu Mengxun snorted: "The air in here is very humid, maybe it is poisonous, and it will destroy my skin." ”

The two big men were speechless, and followed Gu Mengxun into the canyon.

They had walked less than 500 meters in the canyon before they saw ribbons on the ground.

Gu Mengxun immediately stopped: "Don't move, these may be poisonous algae......"

As he spoke, those ribbon-like things suddenly flew up, and then spread out with a buzz, but there were countless small golden bugs.

Gu Mengxun was a little embarrassed: "I'll grab one and take a look." ”

Before she could move, she was grabbed by Li Shaoyang: "Wait, there is something wrong with these bugs." ”

As soon as he said this, the three of them saw the golden worm rush to the left of the canyon like a ribbon, where a swamp lizard attached to the mountain wall began to flee in panic.

The scariest thing is that this swamp lizard looks super large, growing more than three meters, like a small dinosaur, which is a bit of a scary feeling.

The golden worm wrapped the lizard in a ribbon, and then the huge lizard didn't move.

After another ten seconds, the lizard was gone, it was really gone, and even the hard skin was eaten up.

The golden bugs spread out, gathered, and finally turned into streamers again, falling gently to the ground.

The three of them all swallowed a mouthful of saliva, such a powerful bug, compared to Gu Mengxun's evolutionary spiral worm. But it seems to be even weirder.

At this time, Xue Jiansheng climbed the cliff on the left, picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and exclaimed.

He beckoned the two of them to come up, and saw a long golden "river" rolling in the depths of a canyon a hundred meters ahead.

It wasn't a river, it was a swarm.

If the streamers just now are also insect swarms, then in comparison, this long river blocking the entrance to the canyon is at least as many as 10,000 streamers.
