Chapter 1 Hanlun Mountains

Next Chapter

In a basin in the Hanlun Mountains, five teenagers were crouching on a large cyan boulder, all of them silent, staring in a half circle at a map in the middle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Directly in front of the five teenagers is a hanging wall, about 40 meters high. Some green vines hung from the top of the cliff and clinged to the wall, but the strong wind blew but did not move.

The five of them were carefully comparing the terrain with the map in hand. After half a ring, a young man in a dark green suit standing on the far left spoke, "That's right, this is it, you can see that the shape of this mountain wall is exactly the same as the shape on the map. ”

The other four nodded in agreement, and after a three-day trek, the group of five finally arrived at the destination of the trip.

The dark green powersuit boy put down the bag behind his back, sat down on the spot and said, "Let's rest first, it seems that the people of Group 67 have not arrived yet, we will go in after meeting them." ”

The young man holding the map in the middle sat cross-legged and said: "Those guys in Group 67 only have the work of mouth, and before leaving, they bragged that they must have arrived here before us, and now there is no shadow of anyone." ”

The shortest and skinniest teenager among the five took out some dry food from his backpack, distributed it to the other four, and said, "Boss Mo, if you want me to say, let's go in first, I don't know how many moon mushrooms there are in the cave, and this time the task is to collect at least one pound of moon mushrooms." We went in with Group 67, which meant that we had to give them half of it, and if there weren't enough mushrooms in the month, we wouldn't be able to complete the task. ”

The dark green boy kicked the young man who was talking, "Monkey, you shut up for me and talk less bullshit." In the academy, we have to compete with each other no matter how much we want, and now when we go out to do trial tasks, we have to work together and help each other. ”

The others were accustomed to this scene, laughing and playing for a while, and then stopped talking, and silently ate their dry food. One of the youngest-looking teenagers, after eating dry food, repeatedly checked his equipment, ropes, daggers, torches, and flints, tying them to within easy reach.

Seeing these teenagers, the young man in the dark green suit was very nervous, and scolded: "Look at you bear-like, a little trial, you are so nervous, how can you go to the burning fortress in the south to fight in the future, I don't know how many people will die every day." Then he comforted, "We are here to try, and it is impossible for the academy to arrange for us to die." This cave academy must have sent someone to explore in advance, as long as we are careful, it will not be difficult to complete the trial. ”

The remaining four teenagers were all relieved when they heard the words of the dark green power-suited boy. After all, these people are only seventeen or eighteen years old, and they usually only stay in the depths of the academy to study, and this is the first time they have gone out to complete the academy's trial task, and their nervous expressions are all on their faces.

The youngest boy named Zhou Xiusheng, after eating the dry food, said, "I'll check it out!" With that, he stood up and walked towards the mountain wall.

The dark green power-suited young man named Mo Jie shouted to Zhou Xiusheng: "Don't run too far!" ”

A gust of mountain wind blows, the winding endless verdant forest "whoosh" sounds, the trees here grow very densely, the trunk opens like a giant umbrella, the overlapping branches, leaking the speckled shadows, like stars twinkling in the sky, a little dazzling, but the dust that occasionally rises is nowhere to hide, here is an unpredictable quiet, only occasionally can you hear two birdsongs, the leaves that fall every year accumulate on the ground, after the rain and wind erosion, emitting a musty smell.

"The academy is really good at picking a place and finding such a place where birds don't for trial." The shortest and skinny boy named Zheng Kang, nicknamed Monkey, picked up the kettle and took a sip of water and said.

Zhang Shaofan, a young man named Zhang Shaofan, said: "Moon mushroom is a kind of spice for making incense, although it can be cultivated artificially, but it is said that the wild one has the best effect, and only this kind of hard-to-find place will grow." After speaking, he began to look at the map carefully: "According to the map, the entrance to the cave is in the lower left corner of the mountain wall, and it seems that the entrance to the cave is covered by plants. ”

Just as the four teenagers lowered their heads and continued to study the map, Zhou Xiusheng's shouts came from afar. The four people sitting on the boulder thought that he had encountered a fierce beast, so they quickly stood up and ran towards Zhou Xiusheng.

Running over to take a look, Zhou Xiusheng was standing in front of the bushes unharmed, frowning and thinking about something. "Ah Xiu, what's wrong?" Mo Sheng asked.

Zhou Xiusheng pointed to the bushes in front of him and said, "Boss Mo, you see, the plants here have traces of being trampled on, judging by the broken branches of these trees, the time should not exceed two hours." ”

The other four teenagers looked at each other, and sure enough, the bushes had been trampled out of a path leading to the mountain wall. Zhang Shaofan scolded a three-character scripture in a temper and said: "This must be the traces of the people of the 67 group!" They arrived here before us, but they didn't wait for us, and went into the cave before us to collect the moon mushrooms. ”

Mo Jie cursed a damn word: "Let's go up and have a look." Then he beckoned the other four to walk along the path that had been stepped out of them to the mountain wall. It didn't take much effort for them to see a half-man-high cave in the lower corner of the mountain wall, and it was dark and did not know where it leads.

The monkey was so bold that he lit a torch and got into it without saying a word. Li Yi grabbed the monkey and said, "Wait, look at the map first, don't go into the wrong hole." ”

Zhang Shaofan was a little impatient and urged: "Yes, yes, it's here, go quickly." ”

After Mo Jie confirmed that it was right here, he arranged the order of entering the hole, the monkey went to the front, Zhang Shaofan took the second position, Zhou Xiusheng was the youngest and was arranged to walk in the middle, and Mo Jie was the leader of the group.

The cave was only half a man high and very narrow, and five people were prostrate forward, and only one person could pass in the same position at the same time. Zhou Xiusheng followed Li Yi and walked in third place, he didn't know how long he had been crawling, the cave was pitch black and the desert couldn't be seen, so he could only keep his head down and move in the direction of the monkey torch.

Crawling and crawling, the front gradually opened up, and people were already able to walk upright with their waists, Zhou Xiusheng touched the cave wall with his hand, and felt the slippery wet hands, he looked at the light, the cave wall was covered with moss, and it was very damp. Mo Jie, who walked at the back, said, "That's right, this is the place, the moon mushroom likes to grow in dark and damp places, looking at the environment here, there should be a lot of moon mushrooms." ”

Everyone was refreshed and quickened their walking, and soon the five of them came to a huge space, and the monkey walking in front of them raised his torch and saw a spectacular scene in front of them. I saw that the ground in front of me was uneven, and a huge cylinder hung on the top of the head, shaped like bamboo shoots, hanging upside down on the top of the cave, quite spectacular, and the stalagmite tip was still dripping with water.

"It's a big cave." Zhang Shaofan followed the monkey and saw this cave. Everyone was amazed for a while, but they didn't expect that there was a cave in this inconspicuous small cave, and it was a large karst cave with magnificent scenery.

I don't know where a gust of wind blew, and the flames of the torches were blown and swayed, followed by the shadows of the stalagmites illuminated by the light of the torches, and from a distance, these shadows were like a huge monster with a long mouth, hiding in the depths of the cave. All the teenagers couldn't help but have a cold war.

"Ahem" Mo Jie coughed, dispelling the panic of the teenagers, "Don't look at it, don't look at it, the scenery can be seen enough when we come out after we finish picking the moon mushrooms, it's important to complete the task first." You all look separately to see if there are any signs of people walking on the ground, and we will follow the traces to a relatively safe point. ”

The mud on the ground was very muddy from the dripping water of stalagmites, and there were many footprints trampled on by people, and it didn't take long for the teenagers to find a string of footprints and disappear into the depths along the cave wall to the right, Mo Jie waved his hand, signaling the other four to move on.

The five-person squad is the classic combat squad size of the Eastern Han Federation Legion, and almost all the teaching and training of the Federation's awakening schools are taught in the way of a five-person squad. Zhou Xiusheng and the five of them were asked to practice in accordance with the five-person team countless times in the academy, and this kind of training worked in the environment at this moment, and the teenagers skillfully found their respective positions in the team, and the peripheral eyes could see the side face of their partner, and walked forward cautiously, while carefully examining the surrounding environment.
