I can't estimate Sister Er, but I think it's about the same. But the identity of the Seventh Master is easy to know, and he is in a very delicate state in the team. It can be said that he is the management of the whole team.

Through some scattered information given by the fat man, I gradually understood the system. This is very common in foreign countries, but it is difficult to form in China because of the restrictions of some laws and regulations.

Therefore, this kind of company is actually just a gimmick, and their predecessors are all units that were established in some special periods without exception, and were later delisted due to changes in the general environment.

During the Cold War between the United States and the former Soviet Union, the two countries secretly or openly set up a large number of key project units such as intelligence, scientific research, and military affairs.

These departments that were created in a special era because of the incident were abandoned after the end of the incident and had no use value, and some people in order to recover a large amount of losses, so they would secretly auction the assets, integrate the assets, and sell them to the next family with some unnecessary personnel and materials, which is why those such companies in the world always behave specially.

The "shadow" should also inherit a large number of similar industries, and the entire management and operation system can be divided into three layers, the first layer is the upper layer with absolute control, they are the backbone of the entire group, of course, there must still be a lot of internal personnel, because the upstream of the task is still issued from them, and there will be the main action personnel at the lower level to carry it out.

The second layer is a group of people similar to the Seven Masters and Sister Er, if each task is compared to a project behavior, then they are the project managers assigned by the upper group. Or the chief technical engineer. This kind of person connects the upper and lower levels and belongs to the intermediate role, so they are both the initiator and the actor, and their situation is very ambiguous.

The third layer is all the remaining people except Sister Er and the Seven Masters, they are the ones who really work, no matter what kind of work it is, the upper level provides information to the middle level, or even only provides appeals, and then the middle level sends tasks to the lower level, and the lower level divides labor to carry it out. These strata that belong to the mobility of action perform their own duties, and without any operation unit, they cannot operate completely.

But there will be a big loophole in such a structure, the middle level is in an ambiguous relationship with the other two, in fact, what you see on the surface, the lower level obeys the command of the middle level, so that the middle level can use their own information monopoly, with the help of the other party's resources to do their own things, but money is the last word, they may not receive a fixed salary, so the master of the whole system is still the top of those who really have resources and money.

I'm confined my thinking to the gentle terrain. This kind of mountain road that is only the sole of one foot cannot be distracted, and it is terrifying to look at it, so it is better to concentrate on walking when walking.

The backpack here is no longer a back, the mountain is sunken inward, the trail is low and narrow, we can't guarantee our height and a big backpack can pass through this kind of place, so we simply turned off the backpack and put it in front of us.

Halfway through, I realized that the big brother from the Northeast who was at the mountain pass at the time really didn't tell nonsense, we walked on the cliff, and there were dozens of places where we had to climb over the completely suspended road, so we still had a few glances in the dense forest within the stone forest. Faintly, we could see that there were indeed some long-haired, yellow-haired and red-butted monkeys walking through the withered yellow branches.

The original plan to enter the village at sunset was not achieved at all, the sun was already red, and the mountain road ahead of us was still far away. There is a dilemma here, marching at night in the mountains is a big taboo, let alone such a dangerous place.

It was not easy to go again, and it was the same when we went back, so the team decided to rest on the narrow mountain road in place, and we brought sleeping bags, and we could set pitons on the rock wall, so that they could be hung on the rock wall, as long as they were not the master who slept and rolled out of bed, it must be safe.

Bird photographers, especially those who take pictures of birds that habitually inhabit the mountain wall, are very skilled in this way of resting, and some photographers will even stay on the mountain wall for more than a month before going down, so there is no adverse reaction at all when they are hung to sleep.

But we can't, we say it's hanging, but in fact the sleeping bag is still flat, only the lock hangs from the climbing rope, and the other end hangs from the pitons deep into the rock wall.

You can't turn over here, so it's very uncomfortable, and for fat people, it's even more torturous. The fat man protested, but there was no other way, if he didn't rest, he could only stay up until tomorrow, and after staying up for a day to get to the village, so in the end he couldn't fight sleepiness, so he barely squeezed to accept the reality.

I thought this was the only chance to sleep on the cliff with a cool breeze, but we spent the next four days in this state. Everyone in the team looked tired. Men can endure it, but the eyes of the two women can't support it anymore.

We had been away from the army for six days, and on the cliff path for five days, and the pedometer probably showed that we had traveled less than a hundred kilometers. This is not what we had planned. The lack of information almost cost us a lot, and the most frequent question along the way is, when will we arrive?

After walking for six days in a row, at noon on the sixth day, we finally saw something new, this is still a stone forest, the route of travel is so long that we are probably clear, this is a very large stone forest area, similar to Zhangjiajie, but this stone forest area is concave, to be exact, this huge stone forest landform is in a large area of address subsidence area, so it is obvious that the stone forest area is also collapsed and formed.

The entire subsidence area is very large, and it is clear that a super earthquake would not have been able to cause such damage, and the entire landform may have been formed between thousands and tens of millions of years ago. The exact evolution process can also be known very quickly, and the earthquake and the karst landscape here are also known.

A large number of acid-alkaline underground channels have successfully opened up corridors underground over tens of millions to hundreds of millions of years, and these stone pillars that can be seen now are rocks that were harder than limestone in those days, so they have only been preserved for tens of millions of years. The mountain was gradually hollowed out by the groundwater, and the limestone in the upper layer could not withstand the pressure and collapsed, and after the rain and the exposed groundwater washed away, it was only a matter of time before the stone forest took shape.

At noon on the sixth day, the front team came with the news that they should have seen the shadow of the village, and finally the news was clear, and then they learned that the front team had seen the village, and the front was still a stone forest landform, and those villages were just below the stone forest valley, and the road on the cliff was oblique downward, and there was no way to go up.

When I arrived at the place where I could see those things, I realized that this place was really special, the mountain road on the cliff began to go down in a zigzag shape here, strictly we did not see the village, under the stone forest, there were faintly a lot of roofs, the roof was covered with green tiles, and the whole could not be seen, but just by looking at the roof, we knew that those houses were not ordinary.

The roof was high, and the herringbone roof that was supposed to be gentle was now almost thirty degrees at the top of the roof, and the tiles covered with it were all green, and no one would have noticed it if we hadn't had a way forward here.

But soon after, when we were resting here, we saw something that made it impossible for anyone to sit still. According to the local county annals, the earliest record is in 1965, when the village first appeared, but it is unclear whether it was actually discovered for the first time. The latter is a slightly more detailed account from 1990. That is, the reform of the new village and the relocation of the entire village.

The recorded data is very clear, Yan Wuyi's old village at that time had a total of 76 households, and the population was 362, this village is small, but the population of a single household is very large, basically the smallest family has four people.

Among them, the age range is also more detailed, there are more than 60 people over 50 years old, and the others are basically middle-aged people in their thirties and young people in their twenties.

The main difficulty in relocating the village comes from the fact that the elderly who are older than 50 years old are reluctant to come out, but almost all of the young people who have more contact with the outside world have a unified attitude, and in the end, it is all the young people who forcibly carry the old people out, so that the planning of moving the village is successful.

It's just that some not very good things happened later, the old people came out and lived in the new village, in fact, when it comes to good houses, there are no complaints about a good life, but most of the old people are still very reluctant, some people ask, they can't say it, most of them just abandon the inheritance of the older generation. So with this mentality, almost half of the old people in the village did not survive the winter of that year. What year is filial piety in the village, but the matter has come to this point, and no one has the ability to redeem it.

At this time, a vision surprised and frightened us. Above this ancient village, which has been abandoned for nearly thirty years, at the top of those green tiles, a layer of green smoke rises. It wasn't the fog in the mountains, we could see it clearly, it was clearly the smoke that only came from the stove.

The information instilled by the team showed that there would never be anyone in the village, and that all the people who had walked into the village had walked through it, and that no one could live in it in such an inconvenient way of passage.

So for a while, a collective feeling of seeing ghosts has begun to spread among the ranks. At this time, the situation must not go down immediately. Many people brought high-powered binoculars, but the results were not optimistic, the rising green smoke is indeed the cooking smoke that only appears when the farmers in the mountains are cooking, and some people who stand at good angles also swear that they saw the chimney and the faint figure.
