Chapter 151: Changes in the terrain

"What the hell happened in the cave at that time?"

After a moment of silence, I raised my head and looked at Uncle Decrepit and asked.

"Could it be that the person who came in at the beginning accidentally touched the mechanism or ran into a trap ahead?"

I stared at him and asked, and my mind naturally made up for it.

I think there are only two situations when I think about it.

Putting aside other people's experiences for the time being, because I looked at the way the tsundere boy listened to the words and thought, I knew that he must have had the same experience.

I've heard him mention a sentence or two, that the area around South Zealand is mountainous, and you can know if you think about it.

I can certainly deduce my own conclusions from what I have been told before.

However, my assumptions are all assumptions, and only what Uncle Decay said is the specific situation that happened at that time.

That's the difference between imagining and experiencing it directly.

Provided that he is not deceiving

My eyes stayed on his face, definitely wondering more about what had happened at that moment.

Where he walked, we are walking again at the moment, is there another reason for this more urgent?

"Xiaolin, it's similar to what you think"

Uncle Decay paused and continued, "Anyway, the people I met on the road who captured my alien camp had nothing to do with the team at that time. ”

Uncle Decay did not respond positively, he replied in a very cold tone.

"I'm sure."

At that moment, his eyes were a little dazed, he didn't know where he fell, and he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

He was in the same state as I had been when I had doubts about him.

I always felt that he had been through a lot of things, not just the dangers he encountered in the cave.

Then, Uncle Yuan glanced to the other side behind him.

It's the opposite side of the look, and we all have to cross the deep ditch to get to the other side.

"Is it a change in the terrain?" Observing his reaction, I suddenly thought of it, followed his gaze and asked, "How else would you not know that there is a deep ditch here?" ”

"That's right, you guessed it." Uncle Yuan didn't deny it at all, "Xiaolin, the terrain here is indeed a little different. ”

I turned my gaze to the young man, looked at him and asked seriously, "Young Master, I said that you were also listening, but I didn't miss anything." ”

"Can you tell me what's going on, can you give me an explanation?"

I emphasized: "After all, the eldest young master is well-informed!" ”

I looked at him expectantly, and made eye contact with the boy, the corners of his mouth twitching.

"Xiaoling, it's an earthquake."

After a few seconds of silence, the boy replied succinctly.

At that moment, it was like an initiation, and I understood it instantly!!

yes, how did I ignore this?!

For example, there were several earthquakes before reaching the cave this time.

Thinking about the village that was swallowed and buried by the mudslide along the way, I was so shocked that I almost left a shadow.

Beyond that, I think about the disaster in the Northlands.

The earthquake was widespread.

There is a water source in the mountains, and it is possible that the flow direction has changed due to earthquakes, and even the high lake may burst its banks!

All indications show that the deep ditch in front of you is naturally very likely to be caused by the earthquake.

The change in terrain is yes, after such an explanation, Uncle Decay didn't understand it in advance, and it makes sense that he didn't have any precautions.

Change is the most intuitive feeling for someone who hasn't been to the same place for several years.

Even if he had some information before, he would become uncertain and apprehensive because of the change.

The terrain has changed, that's right!

I think it makes sense!

Carefully recall the information revealed in Uncle Decline's words, including the matter of the alien camp he mentioned.

I remembered what the tsundere boy had seen when I was crouching and lurking on the outskirts of the alien camp.

The carriages carried away the people in the camp, of course, mostly the captives, and where did they plan to go when they got into the carriages?

"Uncle, why did those people transport the captured captives out," I asked with a frown as I looked at him, "where are they going?" ”

As the topic deepened, new questions soon arose, and I also wanted to know the answers.

There are still many unanswered questions in my mind!

Uncle Yuan raised his head and looked at me, his eyes were still a little confused, and he said: "Xiaolin, as far as I know, the alien race is in the mountains, and it has been several years since they searched for it in this area. ”

"How long has it been?"

I muttered to myself, secretly saying that the alien camp was well hidden enough to remain undiscovered for several years, probably because this area was deep in the mountains.

Deep in the mountains, it is usually inaccessible.

I'm thinking about Sealand's official office in Nanhua Town, and the location they usually patrol will definitely not include such a far area.

In other words, if the hunters in the mountains did not report it, it would be hidden enough to set up a camp in the mountains.

I was on my way through the mountains with the tsundere boy, and I made several observations and realized how few people lived in this area, and that the villages were so scattered that they were far away from each other, and I didn't know where they were.

Even when we were on our way, it suddenly seemed like we were coming out of nowhere.

For example, Zhuangzi who met those two unlucky eggs before.

I've always wondered, why is this happening?

Those people didn't want to leave the place where they had been living, in fact, it seemed to me that it was really inconvenient to live in the mountains, and even to get medicine had to go to the town far away.

The old lady I healed, she is a clear example.

If you want to treat a leg disease, of course, it is much more convenient to go to the town, than in the mountains, she has a leg pain and has to ask the uncle to drive over the mountains and mountains to the town to seek medical treatment.

Leg disease can wait, if it is replaced by a sudden illness, it is simply a delay!

I think for them, maybe it's a feeling, a feeling that their homeland is inseparable.

Just like before the crossing, I saw those flooded places, and the old man refused to leave his ancestral house.

So, if I were a hunter in the mountains and I happened to see an alien camp in the mountains, would I quietly go to the yamen to report it?

As soon as my mind turned, I immediately came to the conclusion that the answer, of course, was no!

No one wants to cause trouble, unless it infringes on their own interests.

Because ordinary people know that those officials are not so easy to deal with, and it is risky to talk to them!

Because of the secluded conditions in the mountains, the alien camp has been able to last until now before being discovered by those who accidentally entered.

"In the past few years, they have not been able to find the right location and entrance," Uncle Decay paused and continued as he looked at me, "So this time I heard that a suspicious place has been found in the Northlands, and a camp will be re-established there." ”

I haven't been able to find this efficiency for several years!

I couldn't help but complain about those aliens.

"Most of the people who took it away went over there."

When Uncle Yuan finished saying this to me, he was silent for a while.

The tsundere boy and I looked at each other in unison.

The news we heard now is the information that Uncle Decay himself learned from going deep into the alien camp, and it is still the same sentence, as long as Uncle Decay does not deceive us, what he says is the current trend of the alien race.

A suspicious spot has been found in the Northlands, so looking for it in that area sounds like a bit of an eyebrow at least.

I looked at the young man and asked, "Master, isn't the carriage we are riding in the same carriage that transports people?" ”

"Do the math, according to the speed at which they are driving, where should the people be at this point?"

The tsundere boy looked at me, and after estimating, he said a location.

I saw it on the map of the castle house, and I was impressed.

"Is it possible, let Yu" As I spoke, I stopped abruptly.

Almost made a mistake, because so far, the identity of the tsundere boy is still a secret.

I'm going to get straight to the point, and I don't know how much the people listening to will know.

I simply changed my words: "Is it possible for your men to stop the car in the middle of the road, will it be easier for us to know the inside story?" ”

I was curious about the newly discovered place of the aliens, and felt compelled to inquire about it.

The young man met my gaze and said without hesitation: "Of course you can, Xiaoling, the problem is our position at the moment, do you think we can do it?" ”

I patted my forehead and said helplessly, "I almost forgot, we are still trapped in the cave passage!" ”

If you want to send a message, you have to go out to send a signal or something, how can it be in a closed place?!

I made another fuss, and I was a little embarrassed when I looked at the boy.

He stared at me and smiled, looking at me with amusement, and I immediately lowered my head away from his gaze and continued to think about what had just happened.

The tsundere boy couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xiaoling, it's not the first time you've been like this, every time!" ”

Hey, can't he shut up, he still has to make fun of people at this time.

"Okay, the uncle has already said everything he can say, and for the rest, he will remind us when there is danger ahead."

I looked at the young man and whispered, "Young Master, it's better to pull him up." ”

"Yes, yes, it's a big deal for me to go ahead," Uncle Decay immediately echoed when he heard this, "I promise not to cheat." ”

"Young Master, pull me up!"

The young man didn't answer, he looked at me for a few seconds and said calmly: "Xiaoling, you are really soft-hearted, you can make sense in a few words." ”

"Isn't it good to be soft-hearted?" I glanced at him and smiled, "I'm like this to strangers, but even more so to my companions, you should be happy to be my companion." ”

I hurriedly said to the tsundere boy.

"What's there to be happy about, such a personality is too easy to be calculated."

The young man said in a deep voice, his expression a little displeased.

"It's easy to calculate," I muttered to myself, "isn't there still you?" ”

"What do you want your companions for? It's up to you to check it, let's go to the Northland together, just to have a care. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the boy immediately became happy!

The corners of his mouth raised to look at me, and his voice raised a few points: "Xiaoling, you are right, there is me!" ”

Uncle Decrepit screamed: "Don't patronize and talk about this, I'm about to fall!" ”

"I'm on the edge of the deep ditch right now, young master!"

"You won't fall, there's a rope tied to you, and you won't be able to fall for more than half an hour."

Having said that, I still beckoned to the tsundere boy and said, "Let's pull him up together, we still have to hurry." ”

"Didn't you say that you can only send a signal if you can get out, it's important to get down to business!"

I reminded the boy, looking at him intently, and speaking in a sincere tone.

He thought for a moment, paused for a few seconds, and then added to the bottom: "It's okay to pull you up, wait a minute, no more moths will come out on the way!" ”

"Okay, it's all easy to say," Uncle Decay said busily.

I took a hand, and the boy immediately pushed my hand away, and he pulled Uncle Decrepit up easily.

Looking at his posture, you know that even if you take your uncle across the deep ditch for a while, it won't be a big problem.

I visually measured the distance, looked at the boy and asked, "Are you going?" ”

He nodded and said, "I'll take you there first." ”

Uncle Decrepit immediately grabbed my arm and looked at me with a pleading expression.

"Uncle, are you worried that the eldest young master will only take me over and won't come back to take you?"

Seeing his appearance, I subconsciously asked.

Otherwise, I can't think of a reason why Uncle Decay wants to hold me back, obviously he is afraid!

He nodded and looked at me.

"Forget it, young master, that's okay, you can take him over first."

I don't want this guy to hold on to my arm all the time.

"I'll wait here, it's okay."

"Look at you, you can't even compare to Xiaolin's guts, this age is in vain."

The young man looked at him, and his tone was extremely unkind.

I stopped the boy and whispered, "That's because I don't have to worry about you leaving me here, but he's different." ”

"Big young master, you don't want to see him, that's why he's worried!"

The courage is bold and small, all in the relationship with the teenager, I am friends with him, obviously Uncle Decay is not!

It's not bad that the tsundere boy is willing to let him live!

I watched as the boy took him and flew over, landing steadily in the cave passage on the other side.

Then the boy turned back and took me with him.

I really wasn't worried at all, because when I was in the misty forest, I don't know how many times I was held hostage by him like this.

I'm used to him taking me with me, so I don't have to worry about it at all.

The three of them converged, and I turned to look at the deep ravine below, and it occurred to me that since the earthquake would change some of the terrain, it was very likely that the road ahead would also be interrupted, and even landslides or more dangerous sections of the road could be encountered.

In this way, Uncle Decline's previous experience in rushing cannot be completely copied, and it definitely can't.

What's more, it has been a few years, and there are some places where he will forget the details. (To be continued.) )
