Chapter 179: Peeling Ditch

At the end, Deng Sanpao said: "I'll find an old hunter for you to be a tour guide, the timing is just right, when the snow closes the mountain in winter, people outside can't get in, and people in the mountains can't get out." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Jingmei smiled: "Don't bother you Deng Lao, we will figure out the rest by ourselves, after all, I have entered the mountain once with the fifth master, at least I won't get lost, and I will try my luck with my eyes closed." ”

Looking at Deng Sanpao's expression and tone, it didn't seem like he was saying kind words, but Jingmei rejected him without hesitation, Lu Le was a little incomprehensible at first, but quickly figured out the deep meaning.

Like this old fox who has licked blood on the tip of the knife for most of his life, he has placed a person by his side, and he has an extra pair of eyes to monitor you. If you can't find the snow ginseng, you will be safe, and if you find it, you will inevitably stage a black and black drama.

Deng San led someone to bring a half-man tall Alaska, saying that he was keeping a sled to transport supplies, and seeing that the dog was docile and well-behaved, Jingmei smiled happily.

After leaving the Deng Mansion, she first found a hotel to live in, and after entering the house, she couldn't take a rest, so Jingmei took out the map and pulled Lu Le to study it together.

The map was drawn by Qiao Wuye at a high price according to folklore in the early years, and was heavily marked with a red pen in several places where it was most likely to be the general's tomb.

After watching it for a long time, she didn't have a clue, Jingmei sighed and said to herself: "Now many places in the foothills of Changbai Mountain have become tourist attractions and ski resorts, and the environmental damage is too serious. Three of the five places marked by the red pen have become scenic spots, and if there were ancient tombs, wouldn't it have spread long ago? ”

Lu Le saw that the five places marked by the red pen were all in the hinterland of Changbai Mountain, and the terrain was gentle and there was no danger to rely on. But the tomb is the most particular about feng shui and earth veins, and the luck in the hinterland is blocked by the main peak of Changbai, and it is by no means the first choice for the royal tombs.

On the other hand, at the northern foot of the mountain range, with Tianchi in the south and the abyss in the east, the Siberian airflow blows continuously all year round, which should be a treasure of feng shui.

After listening to Lu Le's analysis, Jingmei couldn't help but worry: "The terrain at the northern foot of Changbai Mountain is steep and inaccessible, and with the technical conditions of the Qing Dynasty, it is difficult to build a cemetery on the snow-covered mountain all year round. I'm afraid, it's also useless to go back......"

When Jingmei mentioned the words "technical conditions", Lu Le suddenly had an inspiration: "We can use drones to do high-altitude reconnaissance of all suspicious locations, and once the general direction is determined, we can go into the mountain to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

"yes, I didn't think of that! I'm going to have the drones in place. ”

It is now late autumn and October, and the north has not yet ushered in the first snow of this winter, so there will not be much interference with the detection activities of drones. In order to prevent strong mountain winds from affecting the flight, each drone has been reinforced and upgraded in power.

The next task is to stay in front of the monitor and wait for the image from the drone.

It wasn't until the early morning of the fourth day that the drone finally sent back a set of valuable images, GPS showed that it was a place called "peeling ditch", and there was a bowl-sized black spot on the mountain about 1,200 meters above sea level near the village, which was particularly eye-catching on the Changbai Mountain, which was covered with snow all year round.

Due to the fierce mountain wind, the drone could not get close to it, so it could only take pictures from a distance.

The black dot should be the size of a tunnel mouth, but from a distance, it looks like a black rock protruding from the mountain, so it is difficult for ordinary people to notice.

After making a good positioning, Lu Le and the others changed into hiking shoes and set off.

When they reached the entrance of the north foothills, they were stopped by the ranger: "The area to the north is a lot where landslides often occur, so you should not go, it's too dangerous." ”

The landslide mentioned by the uncle should be a small-scale avalanche, which is in line with the legend.

Lu Le smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder, you see, we are professional mountaineering explorers, fully equipped, not afraid." ”

But his face sank: "Don't blame the uncle, I didn't remind you, the peeling ditch is very evil, and we locals are afraid to avoid it, can you future cubs listen to some persuasion?" ”

"By the way, uncle, why is that place called Peeling Ditch? Sounds weird and scary! ”

Jingmei was particularly interested in this stubble.

"In the early years, there was a small village in Peel Valley, where I lived by hunting and collecting ginseng. At that time, it was not called a peeling ditch, but a roe deer nest. Later, the people in the village often bumped into a skinned bloody man on the mountain, and gradually did not dare to live anymore, and the roe deer nest was also renamed as the skinning ditch, in order to warn outsiders. ”

Hearing this, Jingmei swallowed her saliva, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes: "Didn't the bloody man hurt the villagers?" ”

"I don't know much about this, anyway, it won't hurt you, I'm afraid that thing will scare half of my life if I encounter it......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Le hurriedly gave him a cigarette: "Uncle, we understand your kindness, let's take a detour up the mountain." ”

"That's what it sounds like!" The uncle took a cigarette in his mouth, put his hands in his sleeves, and continued to patrol elsewhere in a leisurely manner, and before leaving, he said to himself: "Young people nowadays, they are really blessed not to enjoy the preference to find guilt." It's so hard to blow an air conditioner at home and put a small net on it, and I don't know which mountain to climb here......"

It wasn't until he walked away that Jingmei tentatively asked Lu Le, "Do we still want to continue north?" ”

Lu Le saw the worry in her eyes, and it seemed that what the uncle said just now really scared her. No matter how tough she looks on the outside, she is still a weak girl in her bones.

"It's okay, it's not that you don't know your brother's methods, or you really encounter something unclean, and you have to walk around when you see me."

Jingmei stepped forward and grabbed his arm and whispered, "It's better not to meet......

Along the way, Lu Le has been thinking, why is the entire Changbai Mountain foothills prone to landslides? It was the devil who destroyed the structure of the mountain when he blew up the tomb; Or is it caused by the power of nature, just because there is a place on the mountain that is a unicorn cave that does not get stuck with snow?

Whichever of these two speculations is true, it is almost certain that the location of the black dot is the general's tomb, but where did the skinned bloody corpse come from? What happened in the tomb......

"Boss, Sister Jing! Look! Following the place pointed by the bodyguard, Lu Le saw that in the snow in front of him, he could vaguely see a little outline of the house, and there were some wooden sheds with only the roof exposed outside the snow.

It seems that the peeling ditch has arrived.

Lu Le turned around and admonished: "You follow me along the foot of the mountain, and be careful of falling into the snow!" ”
