Chapter Fifty-Eight: Three Days of Immortals Section 2 The First Day
Inspect the entire summit of the mountain, and let the warriors scatter to find a place where they can hide themselves. I also arranged for someone to cut down some shrubs and branches and pulled out a lot of wild grass, and used the branches to prop up the quilt and blanket, and then pressed the wild grass on it, hey! A small shack is you!
Some people are puzzled, saying that it is not enough to sleep on the ground, what is this thing to do? Yang Bangzi said, after a while, you kid will know what this is for.
Many warriors simply found a crooked rock, drilled underneath, and made a small grate out of wattles and weeds, and also hid and blocked the wind.
The goal of the radio team is relatively large, Yang Bangzi and Section Chief Luo and a few people are forced to dig a hole under a large rock at the slope, and use a stone slab to support it, half a person is high, the radio station or anything can go inside, and the personnel can also go in, but they are suffocated and cannot straighten their waists.
The knife back beam let the people led by Chief Luo Ke be on duty in the first two shifts, mainly to monitor whether the devils can come up on the opposite hill. Yang Stick ordered, the devil is just a knife back beam, not to the bottom of the mountain, don't fire!
After inspecting the circle again, and making sure that there was no problem, Yang Bangzi returned to his shack on the edge of the small platform, climbed inside, and within two minutes, he snored!
Before dawn, it was still dark from the top of the mountain, and faintly from the south and west, groups of devils who were wriggling like long worms drove over.
After the sun rises, the east, north, and south sides directly below the Jade Emperor's top are full of devils!
It seems that the devils are also attacking from multiple ways, and they are coming towards the empty mountain village at the bottom of the mountain, and this one is crowded. There must be seven or eight thousand!
The elevation of Shenxian Mountain is more than 1,700 meters, and the vertical height of the Jade Emperor Peak is nearly 800 meters. Looking from the top of the mountain, this steep cliff drops a few hundred meters. The people who watched were dizzy, and the people below looked at it, and their necks were sore, and they couldn't see what the top of the cliff looked like.
The soldiers in charge of monitoring the devils all sweated in their palms, and they saw so many devils gathered together for the first time. The large group of devils under the mountain seems to have set up tents and are going to bury pots to make food, and the bonfires are burning one by one, and the smoke curls on the ground, which is quite artistic conception in the mist and sunshine of the early morning.
This was the rapid advance column of the 36th Division. There is also the mountain assault detachment formed by the First Army of the Western Front, the two units together are really more than 7,000 people, plus the search team sent by the 110th Division of the Eastern Front, and the brigade of the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade of the Northern Front to seek revenge, there are almost 10,000 people under this mountain!
Just when Yang Bangzi and their snoring were loud, the devils under the mountain finished breakfast, and the commanders who led the team also had a meeting and decided to disperse and search around. They were all surprised. Intelligence shows that there are more than 20,000 Eight Roads surrounded in a circle, and the center is this small mountain village at the foot of the mountain, but the starry night came, and nothing was encountered!
In charge of searching the western mountainous areas was the troops directly under the jurisdiction of the First Army stationed in Taiyuan, Shanxi. A commando team formed by specially selected soldiers with experience in mountain warfare. It is claimed to be able to forcibly march 120 miles in a day and night under complex mountainous terrain.
They drove from the front line of Dachang in the south of Wutai yesterday, and received information in the middle of the night that a large group of eight roads had appeared in Xiangshang, northeast of Dachang. This group of devils braved the rain to take a car first, and then changed to walking. It was inserted all the way from the direction of Swallow Ridge and walked nearly 80 miles.
The troops of the other divisions were not very good at climbing steep cliffs. The mountain assault detachment took over the task of searching for the Immortal Mountain.
After breakfast, after a short rest, Nakamura Takenan Daisa, who led the team, gave a task and sent a large group of troops to search the mountain along the western slope.
For this daunting mountain, the Japanese soldiers were more or less afraid of the mountain, which is a country with many mountains, and the worship of mountains runs through almost the entire history and culture of the Yamato nation.
So before climbing the mountain, some Japanese soldiers from the mountain village also engaged in sacrificial activities, wanting to pray for the protection of the mountain god, in fact, I felt that the little devil worshiped this temple to worship that god was pure nonsense, just looking for some self-comfort.
There are so many of us Chinese, if there are really immortals, more than 400 million people have to take care of everything in life, old age, sickness, death, marriage and funeral, where do you have time to worry about your little Japan! The little devil burns incense and makes a wish, and in a few days people will get out, and the fairy has done something for you, do you still have a passport and go across the ocean to Japan to find you for offerings?
These devils under the mountain, you just made a wish for a hundred pig heads to the mountain god's grandfather, which is not as good as what Yang Bangzi said!
People Yang stick can say, if you don't bless us, you will tear down your temple and burn your tablet, and let the villagers not burn incense for you. Immortals also have to rely on people to burn incense and pay tribute to get a salary, although they don't have to pay off the mortgage and car loan, then they don't need money to drink and refine pills all day long!
I have a basis for saying this, you see that the devil worshiped the mountain god and began to climb the mountain, the east, north and south sides are the same as the mirror face straight up and down the big cliff, this can not be up, can only go up from the west platform.
Before they had even climbed to the west of the back beam of the knife, there were already three devils who had rolled down with a grunt because they had stepped on the air or stepped on loose stones, one broke his head, and two broke his arms and legs.
At the moment, there are a few superstitious old devils who say that they won't climb anything, saying that today's son is wrong, the mountain god doesn't give face, and he must change the day!
The official doesn't believe in this evil, he believes that the guy in his hand can overpower the gods, and takes the lead in climbing with his arms and sleeves, and finally climbs to the platform, just sat down and wanted to drink saliva to catch his breath, and the arm on the stone slab hurt sharply, hehe, he was stung by a scorpion!
This is on the Taihang and Langya Mountain, which is rich in this thing, and it is not big, unlike the fat in some places, a few are enough for a dish, this place is a yellow scorpion, small, the big one is only an inch long, but it is poisonous! If you happen to sting to the vital part and don't treat it quickly, you will die!
This unbelieving squadron leader is still blessed, he was stung in the hand, and he saw that one arm was red and swollen, and the whole palm was swollen, like a bear's paw, and it still hurt! It hurts to drill the heart! It's very itchy! If it weren't for the person next to him, he would have been able to scratch the flesh and blood of the stung arm.
He hasn't stopped yet, and several soldiers have also been stung, some are feet, some are backs, and the most deserving of it is a little devil soldier, maybe he caught a cold at night, his stomach is not good, he climbed up the mountain and hurriedly got behind the big rock, and he took off his pants to relieve his hands, this is good, he was stung on the buttocks!
The devils began to mumble in their hearts, this is really not a good day, Grandpa Mountain God is not happy! I persuaded the squadron leader with a swollen arm to go back first, this day is not right.
If you are stung, you still don't believe in evil! The painful grinning and stubbornly charged the man, pulled out the gun, and shouted for the soldiers who came up to go over the ridge and search the opposite peak.
There's no way, after all, the mountain god grandfather can't see or touch it, this chief's pistol is real, and a few bold ones took the gun and landed on the ridge step by step.
This knife back beam passed at night, except for the narrow point, as long as you step on it carefully, the mountain beam of more than 100 meters will pass in a while.
But if it's too much of the day, the heart is all flickering! Why? I don't want to think about why the common people call it the back beam of the knife, not only because it is narrow, but in fact, it means that this mountain beam is like a knife standing there! On both sides are also straight up and down cliffs, smooth stone cliffs, walking on it is almost like walking a tightrope!
This didn't happen again, only a few steps away, the mountains in the west looked like clouds and mist, the mountain wind was also blowing, the clouds borrowed the wind, and after a while, the overwhelming clouds and mist rolled along the mountain, and the entire fairy mountain was wrapped in wet clouds.
The devil who took the lead over the back beam of the knife took two more steps tremblingly, his feet slipped, and his body was crooked to one side, "Ah! The man disappeared into the fog, and only the shout still echoed in the clouds.
It's over, the ones behind me don't dare to go anymore, crying dad and shouting mother, the center of the earth is gone, wipe back, step by step back to the west platform, and tell the squadron leader that the leading military cao was captured by the gods!
It's a pity that the squadron leader can't hear what they are saying, this guy just watched his arm go from red and swollen, and his palm began to turn black, and soon the black line rose to his elbow, and the person's head was swollen and fainted.
A few old devils discussed it and quickly retreated, otherwise the squadron leader's little life would not be saved, and if it continued, there would be something strange on this mountain, so let's go.
I didn't dare to go back from the same way, and along the relatively gentle slope to the west of the platform, I carried the squadron leader and a few companions who were also stung by scorpions, and walked back in the fog where the visibility was less than a few meters away.
It wasn't until almost noon that I got out of the cloud and mist area, and went down to the gentler hillside, and I lost it quickly, and after a while, the squadron leader's arm couldn't be saved!
Yang Bangzi, who slept until noon, listened to the report of the soldier who monitored the devil in the knife back beam, saying that the devil was stung by a scorpion, and that the clouds and mist rose when they passed the knife back beam halfway, this kid smiled and said, "I have already calculated that they will not be able to pass!" ”
This is treating yourself as a living immortal! It's so thick-skinned! The big guys didn't even bother with him!
The fairy mountain was covered by clouds and fog, and he didn't show his true face all day, the devils under the mountain did not retreat, and the eight roads on the mountain were not idle.
In the afternoon, the radio station that turned on received an encrypted telegram from the headquarters of the military region, saying that it had jumped out of the encirclement, and when Yang Bangzi told the big guy the good news, several soldiers forgot that there were still devils under the mountain, and couldn't help but cheer a few times.
On the misty mountain peak, there was a faint sudden movement like a human voice, and the devil under the mountain was still a rare thing, saying that the mountain god grandfather had appeared! (To be continued......)
