"Why?"

Yan Xiaoyingxiao was interested, looked at the golden spring that was soaked by the rain and asked, "Why do you want to go up to Heavenly Mountain with us?" ”

"This ......"

Huang Jinquan said hesitantly: "Am I not afraid that you will get lost? Besides, I don't have anything to do at home, so you can still make money as your guide, but this time...... Shall I charge you less? ”

"No! This is not negotiable. I refused without waiting for Yan Xiaoying to speak.

"Lao Yan, don't say it so desperately, the little girl is also kind, and besides, you are not such a picky person, right? Can't afford to pay a few hundred dollars? Lao Fei persuaded him.

"It's not a matter of reluctance, this trip up the mountain is unpredictable, and she shouldn't go up the mountain with us." I'm cut to the core.

"There is not necessarily danger when going up the mountain, but if there is danger, isn't there still us?" Old Fat Road.

"You can't protect yourself, and you still want to protect people? This matter is not negotiable, you can go up the mountain if you want to, you can go up by yourself, in short, you can't go with us. I looked at Golden Spring and said solemnly.

"If I don't stay with you, I won't follow, what's the big deal, it makes people beg you, hum!"

Huang Jinquan pursed his lips, as if he was angry, turned around and went down the mountain, without even saying a word of goodbye.

"What are you doing, Lao Yan, a little girl wants to open her eyes with us, what's the big deal." The old fat said dissatisfied.

"You don't understand, I've seen too many innocent people die these days, especially on Centipede Ridge...... Life, sometimes really fragile......"

Lao Fei opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Yan Xiaoying said at this time: "Okay, let's go!" ”

As soon as she spoke, Lao Fei and I fell silent.

Next, the three of them walked along the deserted road, walked for half an hour, and finally found the path on the mountain.

Because of the rainy and foggy weather, I couldn't see what was going on the mountain, and the three of us pulled the grass, and with the strength of Yan Xiaoying's feet, it wouldn't take long to go to the forest farm reservoir on the mountain.

But because of the burden of old fat, we had to slow down and wait for him.

The road is remote and difficult to navigate, and it is very different from the Heavenly Mountain where I am located, at least the Heavenly Mountain I am guarding can still go up if I drive an off-road mountain bike.

But at present, this mountain road is not possible, it is even difficult to walk, and its desolation is comparable to that of 100,000 mountains.

As I got closer to the top of the mountain, the more familiar my surroundings became, and if it weren't for the desolation of the mountain, I really wondered if I had returned to the heavenly mountain I was guarding.

The clouds are misty, the woods are dense, and the people along the road are rare.

The further you climb the mountain, the stronger the mountain wind, the thicker the fog, and the lower the temperature.

In this way, it took us about two hours, and finally in the fog we could faintly see a huge embankment between the two peaks in front of us.

The sound of water coming up from under the embankment.

The embankment was also overgrown with weeds, and the three of them climbed it and looked around, all of which showed an incredible color.

Although it was obscured by clouds and mist, I could still faintly see the surrounding scene, which was an alpine reservoir, exactly like the one I was in, and even the shape of the surrounding peaks.

The only difference is that there is no house I live in on the edge of the reservoir, but there is a big house on the other side of the embankment.

The big house was built under a cliff, near a reservoir, and it was impossible to see in the fog.

"It's unbelievable, there really are two places in this world that are exactly the same!" Yan Xiaoying said in surprise.

"Tianyan, you said that this place and the Heavenly Mountain where you are located are naturally formed? Or is it artificial? How do I feel that there is any connection between these two places, or even ...... If it weren't for seeing those nine peaks in the secret realm, I would even suspect that the nine lost peaks of Heavenly Mountain had been moved here. ”

Yan Xiaoying's face was full of shock, not to mention her, even I, who had already been mentally prepared, still felt shocked when I saw the scene in front of me.

As for Lao Fei, he also showed a look of shock on his face, but he was not as exaggerated as us.

After a long pause, we came back to our senses, Yan Xiaoying took out the Mountain God Seal and frowned: "If this place is really exactly the same as the Heavenly Mountain that Tianyan is guarding, as far as I know, there is no rat peak among the nine peaks here, that rat peak should be in the secret realm, now how can we find the entrance to the secret realm?" ”

"Which ...... I know a way ......" Then Lao Fei suddenly pointed to the desolate house on the other side and said: "There is a cave behind the big house, we entered the cave, and kept going upstream along the stream, and after coming out of the cave there was a plain not far away, and at the end of the plain was the entrance to the secret realm of heaven. ”

"You know, it's quite detailed." I said.

"This is the way that Lao Feng and his gang entered the secret realm of heaven in the first place, and it is written in the notes left by my father." The old fat said.

"Oh, by the way, the big house faces a cliff on both sides, and there is no mountain road to get there, so we have to go there by water." Lao Fei added.

"That's a problem!"

I shook my head and said, "It seems that this place is still a little different from the Heavenly Mountain where I am. ”

The situation that Lao Fei said is familiar, and if you want to go to the big house on the other side, there is indeed no mountain road feasible, so you have to take the waterway.

The reservoir was spacious, so it was impossible for us to swim over, so the three of us cut down bamboo nearby and built a simple bamboo raft with vines, because considering the weight of the old man, we added two more buoyant plantain trees.

Even so, when Lao Fei jumped up, the whole bamboo raft still sank, the water did not reach the instep, and the three of them stood on it, floating in front of them.

While propping the bamboo raft away from the embankment, I said to Lao Fei: "You should lose weight, it's so heavy, I guess you will have to buy two tickets for the boat in the future!" ”

"Fart! How many times have you said it, Lao Tzu, this is called burly, burly, do you understand? Xiaoying, do you say? ”

Yan Xiaoying glanced at Lao Fei, ignored the latter, and continued to look at the surroundings.

The water was calm, and I propped up my bamboo raft next to the edge of the reservoir and headed in the direction of the big house.

During this period, except for the itchy body of the old fat body, which almost caused the bamboo raft to overturn, there were no other accidents.

After more than ten minutes, we finally came to the opposite shore with the bamboo raft, and we dragged the bamboo raft ashore in case we couldn't find the path and couldn't find the bamboo raft when we wanted to go back.

After doing this, we had time to look at the big room in front of us.

The actual size of this house is much larger than when we look at the embankment, but it has collapsed because it has not been inhabited for a long time.

In that way, it can be described by the word ruins, not to mention living in people, it is difficult to even get in.

Because the ruins were overgrown with weeds and vines, there was no way out, so we walked around the ruins and came to the back, and this is when the machete that the old fat was carrying came into play.

Behind the ruins is a steep rock face with a mountain stream flowing from the depths of the jungle on one side of the wall.

Lao Fei brandished a machete to open the way in front, Yan Xiaoying and I followed, and walked forward along the stream for about twenty or thirty meters, and Guorang saw a dark and secluded stone cave under a rock wall.

The stone cave is about five or six meters high, about three or four meters wide, there is a stream flowing out at the bottom, and the vines at the entrance of the cave are covered.

According to the notes, this cave leads to the top of Heavenly Mountain, and the exit is not far from a high mountain plain, and there is a canyon at the end of the plain, and behind the canyon is a stone cave, and the entrance to the secret realm is in that stone cave.

The cave is pitch black, and there are strange rocks inside, but there is no wild grass to block the way.

The three turned on their flashlights and headed down the stream into the depths.

At the beginning, it was a parallel advance, walking dozens of meters, the stone cave began to slope upward, the road inside was very difficult to walk, during which we saw several pythons living in it, about the thickness of an arm.

Maybe it's because the weather is getting colder, they curl up in the hole, we don't provoke them, and they don't attack us.

In this way, I went upstream along the undercurrent of the cave, and it took about an hour or so before I finally saw the dawn of the exit.

When we walked out of the cave, we saw a wide grassland in front of us, and in the middle of the grassland there was a stream that ran from the depths and flowed into the cave from which we came out.

At this time, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.

The three of them took a short rest in the woods at the edge of the grassland, ate some dry food to regain their strength, and continued to walk deeper into the grassland.

It's really strange to say, just the small distance between the foot of the mountain and the mountain, but the weather is completely different.

The mountain was shrouded in fog and drizzle.

But now this alpine grassland is clear, and there is even a glow projected from the dark clouds and falling on the grassland.

There are no clouds and mist, a light breeze and a warm atmosphere.

Generally speaking, the temperature at the top of the mountain is lower than at the bottom of the mountain, but the current situation is quite the opposite, and the temperature at the top of the mountain is higher than the temperature at the bottom of the mountain.

There is also such a grassland on the Heavenly Mountain where I am, but the terrain is a little different from here, so for a while, I don't know which of the nine peaks of Heaven I am in now?

At the end of the meadow there were two low but pointed pinnacles, and our destination was where we were going, not very far, even if we walked slowly, before dark.

Walking on the wide grassland, the breeze blowing on their faces, the three of them have a sense of relaxation, but they are not in a hurry, and enjoy the surrounding scenery while walking.

It's hard for you to imagine that there is such a wide grassland above the mountains thousands of meters above sea level, this is the karst landform, there is only something you can't think of, there is no place where it does not have.

After walking for about half an hour, we came to the central part of the grassland, which was low-lying and had stagnant water in the depression, forming a small pond.

There were two oxen, a white rabbit, and two elk drinking water on the edge of the pond, and not far away, we even saw two underage boars roaming over.

"This kind of scene is rare on the Heavenly Mountain where I am!" I took a deep breath and shook my head.

At this time, an extremely discordant voice sounded, the old fat swallowed a mouthful of saliva, reached out to wipe the corners of his mouth, and said with a light in his eyes: "Damn, I haven't eaten game for a long time, and no one cares about it here anyway, just enough to slaughter an elk to satisfy hunger." ”

He didn't wait for us to answer, but tiptoed with his machete and touched the stagnant water, and the meaning could not have been more obvious.

But before he could get closer, the two elks became alert and ran away. But the two oxen and the rabbit were still drinking leisurely.

Yan Xiaoying and I stood in the distance, and we didn't bother Lao Fei, nor did we stop him from stopping him, watching how he hunted.

Old Fat had already touched the edge of the pond by this time, and when he saw the elk running away, he set his sights on the rabbit, and when he had come close enough, he swung his machete and was about to strike.

At this moment, several black shadows suddenly burst out of nowhere, and rushed towards the two oxen.

This sudden change caused the rabbit and the ox to be frightened, causing the old fat to fall short and be lonely.

When they looked again, the two oxen had already run away into the distance, being chased by several black shadows, and as for the rabbit, it had disappeared under a mud hole in three jumps.

"I'm rubbing, what's this?"

The old fat was so angry that he scolded his mother, looked at the few black shadows chasing the scalpers in the distance, and suddenly said softly: "There are wolves on this mountain?" ”
