The convoy set off from Lemen as planned and headed straight for the ruins of the Great Rift Valley, but the plan could not keep up with the changes.

Due to the encounter with the mutant herd on the way, the executor's convoy was delayed for a day, but fortunately did not collide with the herd. After four days and three nights, the convoy arrived safely in the Great Rift Valley, and the ruins were far away.

Four armoured vehicles were parked outside a small village near the Great Rift Valley, which had been established just after the discovery of the ruins. The town is small, with no more than a hundred or ten bungalows or low-rise buildings at first glance, and the individual rock low-rise buildings are the work of the masters of the earth.

Due to the large number of evolutionaries who came and went, it was just an open space for evolutionaries who came to the ruins to hunt for treasures, and gradually developed into a transit station for trading supplies with each other, and then there were people who built houses here to sell supplies such as food and water, and there were also those who dared to go to the vicinity of the ruins to pick up the relics of those who died and resell them, and as more and more people gathered, the town was established. Because it is a spontaneous town, and it is located in a three-way zone, there is no such thing as order, and the people who live here are not good people who intend to live and work in peace, except for the evolutionaries who pass by, who are various merchants or guides, and everything revolves around the ruins of the Great Rift Valley. Perhaps in many years, it may indeed be able to develop into a village and town for formal residence.

When the team of executors arrived in the village, it was already late in the evening, and all kinds of vehicles were parked around the village. Since it was evening, it was no longer suitable to go to the ruins, after all, this is only next to the Great Rift Valley, and there is still a considerable distance from the ruins of the Great Rift Valley, and this distance needs to be crossed on foot. In particular, the danger in the Great Rift Valley is much higher than in other places outside the Rift Valley, and crossing the Great Rift Valley at night requires a few more lives on your belt.

Therefore, the evolutionaries who are stranded in the town to make their way to the ruins of the Grand Canyon make the night lively.

After the armored car stopped, the executors got out of the car one after another and entered the bustling town.

"How's your injury?" While walking, Yu Qi asked Li Gang on the side.

Li Gang glanced at the bandage on his left arm, touched it, and said, "No problem, this little injury is almost healed after sleeping, but I didn't expect that thing to be poisonous......"

Last night, Li Gang went out for a walk with tofu flowers as usual, because he had entered the relatively desolate northwest, the mutant beasts had become very few, and it was difficult to see many powerful mutant creatures even at night. As a result, he walked away and ran to an abandoned town. As Li Gang expected, there are many mutant beasts in the town and... The Living Dead. Then he encountered a strong and unbelievable mutant creature, which should be the living dead, but Li Gang couldn't be sure. What Li Gang didn't expect was that this thing could turn into a half-human and half-beast, and the attack and defense power after the transformation were several times greater, which caught him off guard and almost killed him. After that, Li Gang and Tofu Hua worked together to fight the thing that looked like the living dead, razed half of the town, and finally let it run away.

"Are you going out tonight?"

"There don't seem to be any mutant beasts around here, anyway, I'm going to the ruins tomorrow, so let's have a good rest tonight, adjust the state, the ruins exploration is really exciting."

The town is built next to the cliff face to the east of the Great Rift Valley, and there is a path leading to the Rift Valley at the back of the town, and after entering the Rift Valley from the path, it takes about a day or so to reach the Great Rift Valley Ruins.

The structure of the town is simple, with eight streets running through the town and intersecting in the square in the center of the town, and if you look down from the air, you will find that it is shaped like a radiant sun, hence the name of the town.

Walking into the bustling Sun Town, there is really a taste of rural catch-up.

"Come and see, freshly unearthed relics items, don't miss the ...... when you pass by"

"High-quality animal meat, a necessary ration for home travel and heritage exploration, eat one piece and not be hungry, eat two pieces to be full, and the quantity is limited and you want to buy it as soon as possible!!"

"Shake it off, all kinds of equipment are cheap, make your exploration journey easier, come and pick and choose, vomit blood and sell it......"

The streets are lined with stalls, and all kinds of cries of selling are coming and going on the streets, and the evolutionaries are picking things in front of the stalls, or haggling with the sellers, and some are simply lounging.

Li Gang took the tofu flower and walked to a small stall that sold relic items and looked relatively rich, he wanted to see what the so-called relic items looked like.

The stall is small, and an old cloth of about one square meter is filled with strange knick-knacks, and the dim light from an old-fashioned oil lamp with a lampshade illuminates the place. An evolutionary was arguing with the stall owner, and even so, when he saw someone passing by the stall, the stall owner did not forget to shout and solicit customers.

“.. ....This is just an ordinary stone, with a little pattern does not mean that it is a high-end product, you want me so much money is obviously cheating me. The buyer pointed to an oval-shaped white stone with a strange pattern in his hand.

"How can you say that, I didn't see it, I must have not found a way to use it, the relics are like this, take it back and study it carefully, maybe it's still a treasure, my thing is much more decent than others, you say no." The stall owner also did not back down and insisted on his opinion.

The two of them argued about the merits and prices of the goods, and both tried to convince each other to make the transaction tilt in their favor.

Li Gang looked at the stall for a while, there were a lot of knick-knacks on the stall, but how it looked like a pile of garbage, among which there were several patterned stones similar to the hands of the evolutionary customer in front of him. Out of curiosity, Li Gang casually picked up a pattern stone and looked at it, and there was nothing special about it, just that the pattern was a little peculiar.

The things sold by the so-called relic vendors are actually things collected from the ruins, most of which are the leftover garbage collected by the outermost ruins explorers, and then brought these things to the town to sell to fool the new evolutionaries. There are also some gadgets collected by evolutionaries who failed to explore the ruins and returned from feathers, and sold them to make up some travel expenses, so as not to lose all their money.

Of course, these things are not completely fooling people, although they are "garbage" picked up, but because no one knows about the ruins and items, there are no good things in them. It's like gambling stones, things are put here for you to pick by yourself, maybe you just touch it back and find that it's a very good thing, but the probability of winning this kind of thing is lower than the lottery of the Celestial Empire. So far, there have been two occurrences, once when an evolutionary who failed to explore left and passed by a roadside stall in Sun Town and suddenly wanted to buy a souvenir and bought a stone the size of an egg, only to find that this thing can be copied and released like a photocopier, which is simply a small artifact. There was also an evolutionary who wanted to buy a relic item as a good luck charm before exploring, so he bought a beautiful looking stone at the stall, but the stone turned out to be a lifesaver instead of a good luck charm. When he encountered danger in the ruins, the stone actually released a defensive shield, allowing him to save the day.

Anyway, this kind of thing is also very cheap, and it is luck to catch a good thing, and it doesn't matter if you buy a stone. Most people buy these so-called relic items for a good time, and few people really want to buy any treasures from them. Could it be that the evolutionaries who entered the ruins to explore were fools, risking their lives to go in and explore, and keep the treasure for others to pick up?

Knowing that this "relic item" also has the function of being a good luck charm, Li Gang also bought a piece.

"It's not bad to be embarrassed at a critical moment." Li just thought about it, and then he heard a crisp sound of "rattle".

"........." Li Gang looked down at the tofu flower and asked, "What are you eating?" ”

"Ah~"

From the small mouth of the tofu flower, Li Gang saw the fragment of the "Good Luck Talisman" that was handed over to it for safekeeping three seconds ago, and the luck of this Good Luck Talisman is really declining!

"Fresh bottled water, little brother has a bucket, it's hard to find drinking water in the Rift Valley."

"Water?" Li Gang looked at the so-called bottled water in a mineral water bottle, and said that the size of this bucket was too bad.

Shaking his head and refusing to sell water, Li Gang continued to walk around with tofu flowers, the roadside stalls here are not big, but the things are quite complete. In addition to selling things, there are also people who make a living as guides and porters. Because you can only use it to get from Sun Town to the ruins, hiring a guide to lead the way can save a lot of trouble, and you also have to bring supplies and equipment, so it is a good choice to find a porter.

Early the next morning, the executors were ready to go, each with a backpack containing a week's worth of supplies, and this backpack could also be used to hold items found in the ruins. Tianlong Group left some people to stay in the car to do the information transfer station and contact the headquarters, and also divided a team of 20 elite guards and executors to act together. What is surprising is that Song Fatzi actually went to the ruins together, instead of staying behind. As for their eldest lady Tianlong, she didn't show up at all, Yu Qi asked Song Cheng, and he didn't say why. Therefore, Yu Qi and the other executors only thought that the eldest lady had changed her mind temporarily and did not come, maybe Song Cheng was not easy to say clearly considering Tianlong's reputation, so he didn't ask anymore, and it was better to drag him down.

In this way, a group of more than 50 people and a temporarily hired guide set off in a majestic manner.

The reason why Yu Qi hired a guide and asked him to lead the way was not the purpose, because Yu Qi had been here and knew how to go and what to pay attention to, and he was looking for a guide to ask him for news. These people who wander around the ruins all day long to act as guides, and they will chat with each other to exchange some knowledge when they have nothing to do, so these guides have the most comprehensive understanding of the news related to the ruins. Although most of these messages are hearsay, and there is a lot of gossip in them, as long as they are a little useful, they may play a big role in the future.

The guide was an uncle of about fifty years of age, dark-skinned and thin, with a sparse goatee, who looked malnourished, but walked quite neatly.

"Don't see ..... outside, just call me Lao Mu, everyone calls me that. But there are some things that we can explain in advance, don't call me a liar at that time. I will show you the only way to the Great Rock Forest, and you will have to walk on your own after that. After all, I'm just an ordinary little old man, and if I come to any danger, it's over, and I don't dare to go to those dangerous plots in the back. We lead everyone there, and so do we. Before leaving, the guide called Lao Mu solemnly said to Qi.

"No problem, just follow the rules, I know." Yu Qi said.

After getting Yu Qi's affirmation, Lao Mu led the group to the rear of Sun Town.

Behind the town is a vertical cliff that is impossible to see at the end, and there is a winding path on the cliff wall that leads diagonally to the bottom of the Great Rift Valley, this path is made from a natural fault rock by the masters of the earthquake, not very spacious, but it is enough for several people to go side by side.

While walking, Yu Qi and Lao Mu chatted.

"Lao Mu, is there anything interesting recently, if you are idle, you are idle, it is better to listen to it." As he spoke, Yu Qi took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Mu.

Lao Mu took the cigarette and put it in front of his nose, sniffed it, carefully put it in his pocket, and then took out a cigarette roll that he rolled himself, and said happily: "At a glance, you know that you are a large company, and generally only a large company like you will send so many evolutionaries to explore the ruins at once." As he spoke, Lao Mu took a puff of his dry cigarette and continued: "If you want to talk about something new, the explorers who have to come a few days in advance, they are all foreigners with high noses, have you seen the black carts parked outside the town, that's theirs." I have a colleague who guides them. I heard him say that there was an exploration team on the road that had a friction with them, and as a result, they only beat the other party's explorer team of more than a dozen people. If you run into them in the ruins, be careful not to get into a conflict with them. ”

"Thank you brother for reminding us, we are going to explore the ruins, how can we have conflicts with others. And the ruins are so large, the probability of encountering them is also very low. "The location of the ruins of the Great Rift Valley was originally in the junction zone, and after the destruction, the countries were in chaos and took care of themselves, and evolutionaries from all over the world came here to explore the ruins, so naturally no one could take care of them. Even if they jumped out and claimed ownership, no one would care, unless they had the power to suppress the evolutionaries who came to explore the ruins from all over the world, which was obviously impossible.

"Yes, too. Also, I heard that I had already explored the eighth layer a while ago, but the guards on the eighth layer were ridiculously strong, as if they were puppet beasts and other things, and no one could pass through the eighth layer until now. ”

"Is it so powerful?"

"I've heard about it too, anyway, the people who came back said that the guards on the eighth floor are very powerful, maybe someone has already entered the last layer, and we little people don't know it."

"If that's the case, we'll be relieved, hehe." Yu Qi said with a smile. He had a map in his hand, and the map showed the central ruins located on the final layer of the ninth layer, compared to the eight layers in front of him, the ruins hall on the ninth floor was more beneficial to them.

After more than an hour of travel, the group finally came to the bottom of the Great Rift Valley, and the cliff wall of more than 4,000 meters could not be seen from below. The vertical cliff wall seems to be pressed down at any time, and there is a strong sense of oppression, and even the illusion of difficulty breathing.

Looking further to the other side of the Rift Valley, we can see that the middle part of the bottom of the Rift Valley has been filled with seawater, forming a strait, and the warm current flowing through here makes the bottom of the canyon very warm and also generates a lot of fog. On the other side of the endless strait, the mist faintly saw the towering cliff wall opposite, like a high wall connecting heaven and earth, which was really magnificent.

Looking at the cliff that seems to be the end of the world, Li Gang rubbed the little head of the tofu flower, and felt the feeling, a "lewd" poem: "The earth is vast and who looks, and the cliff is infinite." The fog fades away, and a chrysanthemum comes out of the wall~~ Ahem, that's not right, I mean, take Lori on an adventure! ”

The tofu flower didn't lift his head and continued to eat his own barbecue.

"It's rare for me to get wet and happy, don't you give some face, dear~~!!"

"Hiccup~"

"Sometimes I really want to cook this thing...", full of residual thoughts.
