Everyone easily found the way up the mountain at the foot of the mountain, because they had not gone up the mountain for a long time, the not wide mountain road was surrounded by dense weeds, and from time to time there was a sound of asking for a rope in the grass.

Ji Xiaofan couldn't help but be startled, and said uneasily: "There shouldn't be a snake on this mountain, right?" ”

As soon as he heard the snake, Jing Yao's little face was also covered with a layer of unease, but Zeng Xian took out a small bottle from his body and said with a smile: "Such a big mountain, there must be snakes." But if you have this thing, you won't be afraid, this is the snake repellent oil handed down from our ancestors in our village, and I put some on my legs, but whenever there is a snake, I will run away when I smell it from afar. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly rolled up their trouser legs, and applied snake repellent oil to their legs, and then, Zeng Xian took out the herbs to repel mosquitoes, handed over a small handful, and taught everyone to bite them and apply them to their arms, so that the mosquitoes in the mountains would not bite.

After doing all this, everyone calmed down, and then walked towards the mountain without stopping.

Zeng Xian is a perennial person walking on the mountain, although he has not been to the Foggy Mountain, but he has a lot of experience in discerning the road up the mountain, this mountain road is intertwined, and there is a fork in the road from time to time, if it is not clear, it is likely to go around to other places.

Zhao Zhuo was in second place, cleaning up the branches and debris on the mountain road as he walked, making it much easier for the people behind to walk.

As the altitude gets higher and higher, the fog on the mountain gradually turns from light to thick, just now the field of vision is very wide, enough to see a few hundred meters away, but now the field of vision is only forty or fifty meters, and further away is the thick fog.

But this did not hinder the enthusiasm of the people in the hunt for treasure, and every now and then they took a twig and poked it in the grass to prevent any wild beasts from hiding inside, after all, there were too many dangerous things in the mountains besides snakes.

Fortunately, everyone didn't set off alone, one after the other, giving each other courage, plus it was not too late and the sun was still in mid-air, so there was not much fear in my heart.

Under the leadership of Zeng Xian, everyone finally reached the mountainside an hour later.

The mountainside of the Kirky Mountains is a flat area overgrown with a large number of weeds and many wild flowers, and it is like a plain in the wilderness.

On the flat side, there is a cliff shrouded in fog, because the fog is too thick, so the edge is very unclear, Zeng Xian told everyone, this fog is not too thick, when it is really thick, it is said that you can't see your five fingers, and it is easy to accidentally fall off the cliff at that time.

Because the coordinates shown on the blue brick map are on the mountainside on the eastern side of the mountain, everyone worked in pairs and scattered around to find possible treasure spots, of course, the biggest possibility is a hidden cave.

Zhao Zhuo and Jing Yao were in a group, for the sake of safety, the two of them were far away from the cliff, but fortunately, the field of vision was now fifty or sixty meters wide, and it was not that dangerous.

The flat ground looks wide, but in fact, you can walk back and forth in a few minutes, and there is no place to hide anything, so everyone has set their sights on the dense pine forest around the flat land.

According to Zeng Xian, there are no large beasts on the Foggy Mountains, and some of them are small things, and when they encounter them, they can be driven away with sticks.

As Zhao Zhuo walked, he used sharp stones to mark the trunk of the tree, so that he could distinguish the direction and not get lost.

There are almost no roads on this halfway up the mountain, in fact, even if someone walked before, hundreds of years have passed, and they have long been buried by the grass.

After walking for a while, except for the dense pine forest, the mountain grew almost obliquely upward, and I did not find any hidden caves on the mountain.

As the mountain gradually steepened, Zhao Zhuo almost pulled Jing Yao forward with his hands, stopping to rest from time to time, and it didn't take long for Zhao Zhuo and the others to meet Cui Shiyan and Zeng Xian who came from the other side, and then walked in the direction they came from, so that they could conduct a second inspection of the place they had checked.

An hour later, everyone gathered again in the open space on the mountainside, although Ji Yuan practiced martial arts, but after all, he was old, and after walking so many mountain roads, he was also a little out of breath, he sat on the stone, and said with a sense of loss: "I walked around and encountered three caves, the entrance of the cave is too small, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to walk in." ”

Cui Shiyan also said: "Yes, although this mountain forest is dense, the terrain is easy to identify, but I can pull out as long as there are weeds and thick vines." ”

Zeng Xian didn't know what everyone was talking about, and it was not easy to listen to it, so he stayed far away, and only waited for everyone to greet him.

Ji Xiaofan also said: "The three of us have searched for it three times, but there is none, could it be that this thing is hidden underground?" ”

Jing Yao sighed: "If it is hidden underground, it is the most troublesome thing, in the past two hundred years, even if there are traces of being dug up, it has long been gone, if you really want to find it, then I don't know how much work it will take." ”

Ji Yuan and the others couldn't help but sigh, generally digging underground mausoleums and rescuing cultural relics and buildings are all in the case of having determined the location of cultural relics, even if it is a tomb visit, there are professional tools to carry out, but if the treasure is buried on this vast mountain, and the underground of the mountainside is full of stones, it is almost impossible to explore the treasure here.

Obviously, they have cracked the map twice and reached the mountainside of the Foggy Mountains, but there is nothing they can do.

Unlike Ji Yuan and others, Zhao Zhuo picked up the green brick and thought carefully, Yuande is also a smart person, and the two puzzles set up are not simple, one is to throw the map into the mouth of the fish and bury it with him, which ensures that the map will not fall into the hands of others.

Therefore, the meaning contained in this brick must be very clear to indicate the location of the treasure, but whether it is a cave, buried in the ground, or other storage methods, can only be known by careful re-identification.

Mo Ling was also very excited about Shi Dakai's treasure, and when he was searching for the cave just now, he flew around, looking here, looking there, and not letting go of anything.

At this time, her eyes were also fixed on the map of the green bricks, frowning and thinking, and suddenly, her eyes lit up and said, "Big brother, do you think the scratches in this house are a little strange?" ”

As soon as he said this, Zhao Zhuo set his eyes on this room.

The pattern on the green brick is very simple, the upper part is a few mountains, there is a circle on the rightmost mountain, and the lower part is a house, a few simple strokes.

However, there are some shallow scratches in this boxy room, which are not very obvious because of their age.

However, the scratches were stretched horizontally and horizontally, and they did not appear to have been accidentally scratched.

Zhao Zhuo stared seriously, and suddenly realized: "It's a word, the cliff word of the cliff!" ”

"Cliff?" Mo Ling was taken aback, stared at the map tightly, and then said happily: "It's really like a cliff character." ”

Zhao Zhuo's gaze immediately fixed on the cliff in the east, and then strode over.

Seeing Zhao Zhuo suddenly stand up and walk towards the edge of the cliff, everyone was surprised, although they didn't understand his intentions, but they all hurriedly followed.

Zhao Zhuo's eyesight is much stronger than that of ordinary people, so the impact of this dense fog on his eyesight is much smaller, he finds the edge of the cliff very accurately, and then looks around, while Mo Ling is even more convenient to drill out of the cliff and search along the cliff.

Zhao Zhuo hadn't found a place yet, but he heard Mo Ling in front of him shouting, "Found it, there's a cave here!" ”

Zhao Zhuo was immediately overjoyed, but he still pretended to look for it and walked over, and then squatted down where Mo Ling found the cave, the cliff here was in the shape of a "匉", and there was a big stone on one side, just enough for people to settle down, and on the cliff opposite the stone, a large vine fell, and the dark piece behind the vine was not a cave?

And this cave is obviously quite large, not to mention one person, even two or three people can get into it, just because on the edge of the cliff, there are vines and fog to cover it, it is really seamless.

Everyone watched Zhao Zhuo squatting towards the edge of the cliff, and they all squatted down, until Zhao Zhuo stretched out his stick to cut the vine open, and everyone was taken aback.

"Caves!" Ji Yuan's eyes widened, and he shouted loudly.

Cui Shiyan said excitedly after careful observation: "You see that there are obvious traces of artificial carving on the mouth of the cave, and this cave is very deep, it must be very big inside, enough to hide things." ”

Ji Xiaofan also said excitedly: "Brother Zhao, you are too powerful, you can find it in such a hidden place." ”

Jing Yao also looked at Zhao Zhuo with wide eyes, only feeling that he was simply a god.

Zhao Zhuo smiled, handed over the green brick and said: "Actually, Yuande has another mystery on the map, the scratches in this house and the map together are a cliff character, so it can be seen that the place where the treasure is hidden must be on the edge of the cliff." ”

Everyone suddenly realized, and couldn't help but admire Zhao Zhuo's cleverness, if they didn't crack this, even if they looked for a year and a half on this mountain, I am afraid they would not be able to find any clues.

However, Ji Xiaofan immediately became worried again, looked at the thick fog under the cliff, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said: "This place has been found, but how do you get in?" ”

Everyone's faces changed a little, this is not the bridge at the foot of the mountain, although the bridge is broken, but it is only twenty or thirty meters from the bottom of the mountain stream, but this is on the mountainside, if you fall from the edge of the cliff, it will be really broken.

Seeing that everyone hesitated, Zeng Xian laughed heartily, grabbed a large handful of rope from his backpack and said, "Isn't it easy to get this cave?" Let me show you what our mountain people are capable of. ”
