Trapped? How could these ten people who climbed the cliff be trapped to death?

The reason is very simple, on this kind of cliff, if you lose the necessary equipment for climbing, you can indeed climb to the top with your limbs alone, but it will take several times as long as before, in this temperature, in this harsh environment, if you can't climb in time to the halfway up the mountain where you can rest and keep warm, the chance of survival is less than 20%.

"Most of their equipment is gone, and not a single one of them has an ice axe." Mo Duqiao pointed to another corpse next to him, "This corpse is also blind in its eyes, it should have been pecked blind by a golden eagle." ”

Lian Jiuqi said: "I estimate, they are climbing the cliff for about an hour, they must have been attacked by the people of the Golden Eagle tribe, let the Golden Eagle out, took away their tools, some of the people who resisted, the eyes were pecked blind by the Golden Eagle, in that case, they had no way to go down, and there will definitely be disputes in the team, and finally had to bite the bullet, climb up empty-handed, when they climbed here, they couldn't climb anymore, and they were hung here one by one and froze to death." ”

Murwilight checked the assault rifle, "Looks like we need to be careful, maybe those golden eagles are still nearby." With that, Mo Duqiao changed his posture and shouted downward, "Torlie, you ask Soul Branding, how is the situation above?" ”

After asking, Mo Duqiao looked at Lian Jiuqi again and said, "I really don't trust Erlie to be able to communicate with animals. ”

Not long after Torrei finished whistling, the wolf herd above let out another roar, and Torrei then said: "The warning of the soul brand just now is because the corpse was found, there is no danger now, we are closer to the halfway up the mountain, climb up." ”

"Thank goodness." Murray Bridge breathed a sigh of relief and tugged at the rope around his waist, a signal to tell the people below that it was time to move on.

As they climbed up, they began to collect useful items from the corpses, and found a crossbow, thirty arrows, three working walkie-talkies, three spare batteries, two assault rifles with foldable butts and a large-caliber revolver.

Lian Jiuqi handed the crossbow to Torreux, and let Xingshu and Ma Fei each take an assault rifle, and kept the revolver himself.

Ma Fei, who simply checked the gun, said: "It's really pitiful, you can't use a gun, firing in this environment can only cause an avalanche, and it's very inconvenient to hang a spear on a cliff." ”

The torture technique wiped off the layer of ice and snow on the surface of the gun, and climbed up directly on his back, Ma Fei said: "By the way, you don't know how to use a gun, right?" ”

Torture shook his head: "Not at all." ”

"After you go up, I'll check it for you first, and then I'll teach you the basics." Ma Fei smiled at the torture technique, "Finally, there is something that you can't, I will." ”

After another hour, when everyone was almost exhausted, Lian Jiuqi finally raised his eyes and saw the soul brand standing on the edge of the cliff above, whining at him in a low voice.

After climbing the cliff, they all lay panting in the snow covered in the setting sun, while Soul Brand and his two children patrolled around, keeping watch for the resting people.

After resting for a while, Xingshu got up and looked at the narrow snow path that stretched halfway up the mountain to the big snow mountain in the distance, and he pointed to the mountain road: "Angu, is that the Four Seasons Mountain?" ”

Angu shook his head: "No, that's not, the mountain under the sunset is." ”

Everyone looked towards the sunset, and finally saw clearly the snow-capped mountain that was not too high under the sunset, the snow-capped mountain was hidden in the center of several big snow-capped mountains around it, and the upper and lower levels were almost shrouded in snow mist, and those snow fog were like white dragons swimming, making the already mysterious Four Seasons Mountain even more hazy.

"Nothing peculiar, huh?" "The only trouble is that there seems to be no way into the mountain, so are we going to climb the highest mountain and slide down?" ”

Angu nodded and said, "You're right this time, that's what I did last time, but that time......"

Speaking of this, Angu paused: "That time is even more dangerous than this one. ”

Lian Jiuqi immediately said: "Angu, you still have something to hide from us, you'd better tell us honestly, otherwise, you won't have any good results." ”

Xingshu also said: "Angu, you didn't tell you which way you went to Four Seasons Mountain last time, and what happened, why did you hide this process?" ”

Angu just smiled awkwardly: "We've all come here, do I still need to hide it?" I didn't hide it, I just don't think there's anything to say, there's a cave over there, let's go in and take shelter from the wind, it looks like we're going to spend the night here tonight. ”

After Angu finished speaking, he immediately walked towards the cave, and the rest of the people looked at each other, knowing that Angu must have something to hide, but as for what it was, only Angu himself knew.

Mo Dusk Bridge walked a few steps, rushed to Angu, hung the rope on the safety lock around Angu's waist, and then grabbed Angu and threw it towards the edge of the cliff, seeing this, the torture immediately stepped forward to stop it, but it was too late, Angu screamed and fell down, and then was hung on the edge of the cliff by the rope.

Mo Duqiao motioned for the torture technique not to step forward, and walked to the edge of the cliff with the dagger, looking at Angu, who was struggling to climb back, and gently placed the blade of the dagger on the rope.

Mo Dui said, "I'll give you a chance now." ”

Angu scolded, "Are you sick!? Are you trying to kill me? ”

"If, if you tell the truth, what happened just now is my fault, I misunderstood you." Mo Duqiao said coldly, "If you continue to lie, I am really sick, and I really want to kill you." ”

Ma Fei felt that Mo Duqiao's method was a little inappropriate, and just as he was about to step forward, he was stopped by Lian Jiuqi, who looked at Ma Fei and the torture technique, shook his head slightly, and asked them not to interfere.

Torrei and Soul Brand stood there, and the other two wolf herders patrolling in the distance also watched with strange eyes at what had suddenly happened.

Angu clutched the rope tightly, and his eyes fell on the blade of the Modui Bridge: "I said, nothing, nothing!" ”

Mo Dui began to gently cut the rope, and Angu looked at the torture and the others and shouted, "What the hell do you want? If I die, you may not be able to enter the Four Seasons Mountain safely and find Kuhan City, I am the son of Bohai, don't forget, I am the son of Bohai......"

Moduqiao kicked Angu on the shoulder, and Angu's hand slipped and fell, hanging from the rope below.

After Angu stopped screaming, he turned to look down at the abyss, closed his eyes, and shouted, "What you want to know, I can tell you, but not now, definitely not now!" ”

Torture Shu stepped forward and walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at Angu below: "When was that?" ”

Angu gasped and said, "If we see Tang Qianrou and them again, I will tell you what is going on, and of course, if I know that she is dead, I can also tell you." ”

The torturer asked, "Why?" ”

After the torture question, Mo Dusk Bridge had already begun to cut the rope in earnest, and began to count down.

Angu was anxious: "Don't don't don't ......"

The torture technique grabbed Moduqiao's wrist, and Moduqiao stopped, staring coldly at Angu.

Angu shouted, "Save your life! I'm here to save my life! ”

Lian Jiuqi asked not far away, "What do you mean?" ”

"What if...... If you meet someone from Cusco, remember, you must not be controlled by them, you must have the upper hand, and I will help you when the time comes, because I know very well that once I get out of the Four Seasons Mountain, I will die, and they will not let me go. Angu hung there and shouted, "Do you understand what I mean? If you don't believe me, you can cut the rope right now and let me fall to my death. ”

The torture technique dragged An Gu up and said, "Speak clearly." ”

Angu grabbed the wrist of the torture technique: "I said, when I meet Tang Qianrou and them, or make sure that Tang Qianrou is dead, I can tell you why, otherwise, I won't say a word." ”

Xingshu turned his head to look at Lian Jiuqi, and after thinking for a while, Lian Jiuqi nodded.

The torturer dragged Angu up, patted the snow off his body, and said nothing, letting Moduqiao lead him into the cave.

"Something isn't right." After Angu entered the cave, Ma Fei whispered to the torture technique, "Listening to the meaning of Angu's words, the reason why he concealed it is related to the Cusco Company. ”

"Not only that, I guess he has a direct relationship with the big boss of the Cusco company, otherwise, he wouldn't be so scared, I have a terrible assumption in my heart now." ”

Maffei glanced at Torre, who was feeding the soul brand in the distance, and asked, "What assumption?" ”

"Not only did we get into the game, but we got deeper and deeper, and we kept moving in the direction set by the man behind the scenes, the big boss of Cusco." "The closer I get to the Four Seasons Mountain, the stronger this feeling becomes, and especially after I know about that prophet, and the three abilities of the prophet, I begin to doubt the original intention of the Cusco Company." ”

Ma Fei thought for a moment and said, "You mean, Qimen may not exist at all?" What did the Strange Gate refer to that the prophet left behind? Or the power of a prophet? ”

Xingshu shook his head: "I don't know, I just suspect it, one is to see through people's hearts, one is to bring the dead back to life, and the other is to turn iron into gold, let's try to make an imagination of these three abilities, for example, the first one to see through people's hearts, do you remember those institutions encountered in the Tiandifu and underground caves, as well as in the labyrinth of Xiangxi?" ”

Ma Fei said: "Yes, those organs seem to be able to see through people's hearts. ”

"Yes, this is the first one, and it can be regarded as a relationship." The torture technique thought for a while, and then said, "The second one is to turn iron into gold, in a broad sense, the cast iron immortal has already played iron to the point of being superb, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he can turn iron into gold, right?" ”

Ma Fei agreed: "Yes, the rest is to resurrect the dead, do you mean to say that in the city of Kuhan in the Four Seasons Mountain, there is the so-called resurrection technique of the cast iron immortal?" ”

"Maybe, but judging from our previous speculation, maybe this resurrection technique is not really a resurrection technique, but something else." ”

Ma Fei shook his head: "You also said, it was just speculation before, what if it is really a bit of iron, or something that can see through people's hearts?" Torture, you are a cargo chaser, you should be very clear that there are many things in this world that cannot be explained. ”

The torture technique just said "um", didn't say anything more, just walked a few steps to the other side, and stood there staring blankly at the Four Seasons Mountain that would be about to enter tomorrow.

……

"Officer Fu, you must know that there are many things in this world that cannot be explained."

When the cup of jasmine tea brewed by Fu Mingwei was brought to Zheng Cangqiong, Zheng Cangqiong suddenly said such a sentence.

Fu Mingwei nodded and sat down, and motioned for Dong Guozhi and Chen Fang, who were standing on both sides, to sit down as well, and the meaning was also very clear - these two old men were "consultants", not suspects.

After the two sat down, Fu Mingwei asked, "Give me an example." ”

"Officer Fu, do you know the 'Dragon's Tooth and Tiger Tooth'?" After Zheng Cangqiong took a sip of tea, the expression on his face was a little more relaxed, after all, this old man who had to drink tea every day had been away from tea for too long, just like a walking corpse who had just recovered his soul.

Fu Mingwei shook his head: "I don't know, what is that?" ”

Chen Taidong explained on the side: "In today's words, it is a divine weapon made of meteoric iron, sharpening iron like clay. ”

Chen Fang moved his body behind him, as if he had something to say, Fu Mingwei noticed it and asked, "What?" ”

Chen Fangdao: "If you say that iron is like clay, I have seen it, when I was undercover in the past, there was a drug dealer who had an ancient sword, only half an arm long, I watched him easily cut an assault rifle in half with one knife, the cut was very neat, just like that kind of laser cut out, I don't know if that counts as a dragon's tooth?" ”

Zheng Cangqiong said: "The so-called dragon tooth and tiger tooth, dragon tooth in front, tiger tooth in the back, dragon tooth refers to not a weapon that can be created in the world, it is a divine weapon, and tiger tooth is a sharp weapon that we can see on weekdays, what you see is only a sharp weapon called tiger tooth, not a divine weapon." ”

Chen Fang nodded, Dong Guozhi was silent, and Fu Mingwei asked, "What do you want to express?" ”

Zheng Cangqiong said: "Do you believe in the existence of divine soldiers?" ”

Fu Mingwei thought for a moment and said, "Unless I see it with my own eyes." ”

"Nope." Zheng Cangqiong smiled, "You will still be suspicious, because you are a police officer, and your profession makes you have to be suspicious." ”

Fu Mingwei also smiled: "However, the police are not a profession that doubts everything, for example, we must believe in the existence of justice." ”

Zheng Cangqiong put down the teacup: "Okay, let's do it, borrow a pen and paper for me." ”

After Fu Mingwei took the pen and paper, Zheng Cangqiong wrote a line of words on a note, and then handed it to Fu Mingwei: "Thank you colleague, let him help me get two things, take this note, and give it to the owner of the store at the address." ”

Fu Mingwei opened the note and looked at it and wrote a line of poems on it - but the old man doesn't know weapons, and Jiumu doesn't forget it for a long time.

There is also an address written under the note, and judging by the address, it is not far from here.

Fu Mingwei thought for a while and handed the note to Dong Guoyu: "Guozhi, thank you for your hard work." ”

"Got it." Dong Guozhi took the note, opened the door and left.

According to the address, Dong Guozhi found the shop that sold barbecue, and after he found the boss, he handed the note to the other party. The boss, who was still puzzled, immediately changed a person after seeing the note, his eyes were much sharper, and after looking Dong Guozhi up and down, he didn't ask anything, just waved his hand and let Dong Guozhi follow him into the back kitchen, and then in an abandoned freezer in the corner of the freezer where raw and cold food was stored in the back kitchen, he took out a box and handed the box to Dong Guoyi.

Dong Guozhi held the box and looked at the boss, and the boss turned around and left, walked to the door of the freezer, touched his arm, and looked at him with strange eyes, which seemed to mean: What do you want to do? Still not leaving? Freeze you to death?

Dong Guozhi didn't speak, and returned to the car with the box, when he tried to open the box, he found that the box seemed to be a whole, there were no gaps at all, it couldn't be opened at all, and there was no place to open it.

After studying for a while, Dong Guozhi gave up, so he had to return to the unit with the box, returned to Fu Mingwei's office, handed the box to Zheng Cangqiong, and then concisely reported the process of taking the box to Fu Mingwei in front of Zheng Cangqiong.

Fu Mingwei looked at the black box on the table, and the surface was still cold, and asked, "What is this?" ”

"Odd goods." Zheng Cangqiong smiled, and Chen Taidong was also full of smiles.

Fu Mingwei shook his head, and Chen Taidong said: "Officer Fu, this can also be called sincerity, because, there are some things that we can't easily show for hundreds of years." ”

"Strange goods...... Fu Mingwei's gaze fell on the box again, "Okay, take a look?" ”

"Take a look." Zheng Cangqiong was still smiling, "As a prelude to the beginning, please find a way to open this box, even if it is falling, smashing, or even you can use guns." ”

As soon as Zheng Cangqiong said this, Dong Guozhi immediately said: "Really? ”

Zheng Cangqiong and Dong Guozhi nodded, Dong Guoqi turned around and took the tools, knocked them all kindly, and then really picked them up and fell, but the box was not scarred at all, let alone opened.

Chen Fang was not so reckless, he approached the box and looked at it carefully, and looked at it for a long time: "There are strange lines on this box. ”

Zheng Cangqiong didn't answer, just nodded, but even if Chen Fang saw the lines, he still couldn't think of a way to open it, while Fu Mingwei didn't move at all, just said: "Mr. Zheng, please open it, by the way, please explain." ”

Zheng Cangqiong stretched out a finger, pressed and held down the left side of the box, slowly swiped to the right, and then moved up another centimeter, and then down, during the whole process, his eyes kept falling on Fu Mingwei, and he didn't look at the box at all.

After Zheng Cangqiong's fingers left the box, the box made a "click" sound, and a gap appeared underneath, and Chen Taidong raised his hand to open the box directly.

Fu Mingwei frowned and looked at it, while Chen Fang and Dong Guozhi glanced at each other, stepped forward to check carefully, but still couldn't see a clue.

Zheng Cangqiong touched the box and said: "This box is called 'Ghost Lock', it is said to have been born in the Warring States Period, but it is said, but as for who made it, how it was made, and what the principle is, no one knows, even the method of opening it was told by the monk who gave it to me, and I practiced tens of thousands of times according to the method he said, so that I could open it flexibly at one time, and I did not need to repeat that step many times." 2k reading network
