57. The way down the mountain

"Let's go."

After the nun opened the door and looked outside, she urged Bai Ye again.

Bai Ye picked up the dagger that the bishop had dropped on the ground, opened the door and walked outside.

This dagger does not show the description of the item, and the weight of the dagger directly increases by 30 when held in the hand.

'These scene items generally weigh more than the items available to the player. ’

The same is true of the farmer's machete just now, which directly increased by 50 after starting it.

Worried that the excessive weight would affect his actions, Bai Ye threw it on the elevator, otherwise it would be very good to defend himself.

……

After taking a short road along the dark corridor, Bai Ye returned to the fork in the road just now.

"This way."

The nun opened the way in front and led Bai Ye to the nave.

After arriving at the nave, Bai Ye used the [Church Back Door Key] to open the small door on the right.

Walking out of the small door, there is the churchyard outside, and inside it is a mess, with crooked tombstones and newly dug graves, and many skinned and bloody corpses hanging from a large dry tree in the middle.

The two of them walked straight ahead, and after passing the dry trees, a wall and an iron gate appeared in front of them.

The iron gates were locked, and the walls were covered with spikes, making it difficult to climb over.

"Go this way."

The nun showed the way again and led Bai Ye to the edge of a tomb on the right side of the wall.

"You can get out of here."

Hearing this, Bai Ye squatted down to inspect the tomb.

The tomb was hollowed out and a small hole was dug for people to drill out of the wall.

"This cave was dug by Bob, and then he was sent to the old sewing machine factory by the bishop, and I don't know what happened now?"

The nun said that Bob was probably one of the six college students who traveled with her.

Including the nameless corpses at Qiaotou, Bai Ye has now learned about the status of 5 of the missing college students.

He estimated that the complete identification of the six missing college students could trigger a side quest.

"Let's go over."

He lay on the ground and crawled into the cave.

The soil of the cave has been tamped, although it is narrow, but a little bit of effort has been drilled through.

After pulling the nun out of the cave, Bai Ye turned to look outside the church.

By this time, the heavy rain had stopped, and the sky had returned to a dark state of dark clouds.

There is a winding road down the hill behind the church, which is as dark as ever, and it is necessary to use the night shooting function of the DV camera to move on.

Bai Ye walked in front, and the nun behind him grabbed the corner of his clothes, and the two walked cautiously along this road.

……

After walking peacefully for a few minutes along the way, a faint fire appeared in front of him, and a faint voice came from the voice.

Bai Ye approached in that direction and found that it was a seeker camp, with a campfire lit in the middle of the camp.

He and the nun hid behind a rock, carefully observing the camp.

Four tents were set up in the camp, and seven or eight villagers sat around the campfire, chatting, eating, and sharpening knives.

Across the camp was a large tree that had been struck down by lightning, and a rope hung from its branches, and a man was hanged at the other end of the rope.

"Oh no, that's Marcus!"

Bai Ye heard the nun let out a soft cry and knew that the hanged person was the sixth missing college student.

- You have ascertained the situation of the 6 missing college students, and the hidden side quest 'The Truth' has been completed. Reward: 200 escape points.

The difficulty of completing this side quest is not high, and the quest reward given is only an escape point.

"Those villagers are guarding the intersection, and we can't get around."

Bai Ye reminded in a whisper on the side.

The camp was at the junction, surrounded by raised dirt slopes and broken walls, and it was necessary to pass through the center of the camp to get there.

"And there's a second camp in the back."

The camp was at the foot of the mountain, and it should have been stuck right on the way down.

Under the double obstacle, this downhill road is simply impassable.

"I still know a path, but that path will be harder."

The nun is simply a human navigator and knows the mountain inside out.

She pulled Bai Ye and walked a short distance away from the camp, and a cliff appeared in front of her, and it seemed that there was no way out.

Bai Ye stepped forward to observe and found that the right side of the cliff was a neat mountain wall, and there was a path half a foot wide on the mountain wall.

The trail is quite difficult to walk, and one has to stick to the mountain wall and move sideways little by little.

"This road leads to an abandoned material lifting platform, and I hope to go down from that platform."

……

The wind on the cliff is very strong, and the mountain path is narrow, so you must stick to the mountain wall and not make any unnecessary movements.

Bai Ye's gaze looked to the opposite side, and he could clearly see the villagers' camp.

From this, he deduced that the topography of this area should be a U-shaped col, and the distance between the two opposite sides should not exceed 30 meters.

The nun walked in front, Bai Ye followed closely, and after moving a distance of dozens of meters, the two jumped onto the small platform hanging on the mountain wall.

Then I walked down the sheep intestine path behind the small platform for about ten meters, and a small wooden house on the edge of the cliff was built in the middle of the cliff in front of me.

The material lifting platform that the nun spoke of was built in the cabin.

Bai Ye entered the wooden house to inspect, and he noticed that the lifting platform was a hand-cranked device similar to a well to draw water.

"Missing rope?"

The device was supposed to have a bundle of rope on it that could be used to lower the basket from a height, and the handle on the device could be used to lift the supplies below.

But now the hand-cranked device is still complete, but the only thing missing is the rope.

"We can't get down without a rope."

The nun obviously did not expect this situation, and said anxiously, "What can I do about this?" ”

Bai Ye used the DV machine to telescopic the focal length below, and measured the distance between the lifting platform and the bottom of the cliff about twenty meters.

Then he glanced at the nun's clothes.

'Not long enough. ’

The player's initial clothing cannot be removed, and the nun is significantly not long enough.

It seems that the idea of using clothes to form a rope to climb down does not seem to work.

Bai Ye pondered for a moment and said to the nun, "Ropes can be found in that villager's camp. ”

Isn't there a ready-made rope for the hanged nun's fellow nun?

"But we need to lure those villagers away first."

He took out the dagger he had picked up from the bishop's chamber and handed it to the nun.

"I'll lure the villagers away, and you go get the rope."

"That's too dangerous."

The nun worried, "You'll be caught by the villagers." ”

"Don't worry, I can handle them."

"And there's no other way for us to do that."

Next, the two of them returned to the cliff edge where they had been.

After rounding back to the rocks in the camp, Bai Ye noticed that the ugly-faced uncle of the Gruskin family also appeared in the camp.

He was sitting alone on a stake next to the campfire, sharpening a machete in his hand on a whetstone, occasionally sticking out his long, scarlet tongue and licking his chapped lips.

The plan to divert the villagers is doubly dangerous because of the appearance of this guy.
