But no matter how Xiao Meng's uncle shouted, Xiao Gang was still motionless. Xiao Meng's uncle got up suddenly, and Xiao Gang, who fell down, came forward, only to find that his eyes were wide open, but he didn't have any look.

Xiao Meng's uncle patted Xiao Gang's face, "Hey, Xiao Gang, then wake up, what's wrong with you?" Speak! ”

But no matter how Xiao Meng's uncle shouted, Xiao Gang didn't have any reaction. Xiao Meng's uncle panicked and quickly checked it, but he didn't find any external injuries to Xiao Gang, except for blood flowing out of his ears, which was thought to be related to the harsh sound just now.

Xiao Meng's uncle stood up, thought for a moment, and then cautiously walked into the cave to see the stone on the stone platform. Unexpectedly, the oval-shaped stone had disappeared at this time, and there were still some fragments of these stones on the stone platform and underground.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Meng's uncle immediately felt a chill in his back, could it be that something really broke out of the shell of the stone! Or, is this really a rock?

He didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't dare to stay any longer, so he turned around and ran to the position just now, picked up Xiao Gang, and walked towards the outside of the cave.

But when he walked to the entrance of the cave, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The hundreds of meters of snow around the entrance to the cave had all disappeared, leaving only a thin layer of ice. Xiao Meng's uncle can't imagine what happened last night!

Later, Xiao Meng's uncle took Xiao Gang around a forest with great effort, found a clearing and lit the dead branches. The rising smoke attracted the attention of the others, and the two were finally rescued back to the forest farm........

Xiao Meng finished talking about this matter and looked at Chu Tianyi, "How about Brother Yi?" Isn't that mysterious? ”

Chu Tianyi listened attentively, and only when he heard Xiao Meng's words did he come back to his senses, "What happened later?" What happened to that Xiao Gang? ”

Xiao Meng shook his head, "I haven't woken up since then, and the hospital said that the cranial nerve was damaged, or something irreversible." ”

Chu Tianyi thought for a moment and asked, "Then did your uncle tell you later what that oval stone was?" What's inside? ”

"My uncle can't tell, but," Xiao Meng said after a pause, "Actually, my uncle didn't tell anyone about it at first. When asked by the people in the forest farm, he just said that Xiao Gang went into the mountain with him that night, wanting to get a pheasant, but he didn't expect to encounter a wild boar, and later in the struggle, the two accidentally fell off the cliff. He didn't say a word about anything else. It wasn't until later ......"

"What happened?" Chu Tianyi asked.

"Later, Xiao Gang's grandfather came to the door," Xiao Meng sighed, "Old man Xiao found my uncle alone, without saying a word, he took out a hunting knife and stuck it directly on the table, telling my uncle to either tell the truth of the day as it was, or don't think about going out." Old Man Xiao's temper is known to all over the country, who dares to provoke it? So my uncle poured the beans directly into the bamboo tube - there was nothing left, and I said it all. ”

"This old man Xiao believes it?" Chu Tianyi felt that such an unbelievable experience would be difficult for ordinary people to believe.

"Believe!" Xiao Meng nodded, "After listening to my uncle, Old Man Xiao didn't speak again, turned around and left." Later, my uncle heard that before Mr. Xiao came to him that day, he had already been to the place where they had an accident, and he had also found the shotgun. ”

"So, this old man Xiao must know something?" Chu Tianyi speculated.

Xiao Meng nodded as he drove, "It should be." ”

Chu Tianyi was still very curious about the oval stone, "Did this old man Xiao later say what the thing in that cave was?" ”

Xiao Meng smiled, pursed his lips and thought for a moment, "Later, my uncle did find Old Man Xiao and asked him, and Old Man Xiao finally told him two words - dragon eggs. ”

"Dragon eggs??" Chu Tianyi felt a little unbelievable, "Really? Is there really a dragon in this world? Still laying eggs? ”

"Then I don't know." Xiao Meng smiled and shook his head.

Chu Tianyi also smiled, "What you said is really false, are you making up a story for me?" ”

"No, no," Xiao Meng put away his smile and waved his hand, "This is really from my uncle, and there is really a big scar on his calf, which is the one when he was hit by a wild boar." ”

Chu Tianyi nodded, "That's it!" ”

"I'll tell you, Brother Yi," Xiao Meng stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the car, "There are definitely a lot of secrets hidden in this Changbai Mountain, I think when I was in the Qing Dynasty, this mountain was a forbidden area." ”

Chu Tianyi shook his head with a smile, and he told Xiao Meng that the Qing Dynasty emperors had designated Changbai Mountain as a forbidden area because they thought that Baishan Heishui was the birthplace of the Manchus, Heishui referred to Heilongjiang, and Baishan referred to Changbai Mountain. The Qing Dynasty royal family believed that Changbai Mountain was the dragon vein of the Qing Dynasty. In order to prevent it from being destroyed by outsiders, they listed Changbai Mountain as a forbidden place.

Xiao Meng nodded again and again after hearing this, "Yes, doesn't this mean that there is a dragon vein hidden in it, so if you can't keep it, there will be a dragon, and if there is a dragon, it may lay an egg or something." ”

Chu Tianyi couldn't help laughing, feeling that there was really no need to argue with Xiao Meng about this kind of thing. So he changed the question, "Xiao Meng, what is there about the geological investigation of this Changbai Mountain?" Then he added, "It's a matter of the older years." ”

"Geological expedition?" Xiao Meng rolled his eyes and thought about it, but he didn't seem to have a clue.

Chu Tianyi did not give up and continued to guide, "It's the kind of scientific investigation that the geological team goes into the mountains." ”

"Oh, I see," Xiao Meng seemed to have something, which made Chu Tianyi look forward to it.

Xiao Meng continued, "I seem to really know about this, I was still young at that time, only three or four years old, it should be eighty-seven or eighty-eight years, and I also heard adults talk about it later." ”

"What's the matter?" The time that Xiao Meng said coincided with the time when Chu Tianyi's father, Chu Chuan, joined the expedition, which made his eyes light up.

Xiao Meng recalled, "There was a time when a strong wind blew in this Changbai Mountain. The wind blew, and many of the big trees with the thickness of the bowl mouth were broken. Many people in the neighborhood have lifted their roofs. The wind was wicked, and it blew for three days and three nights. The scene is really similar to the apocalypse played in the American blockbuster. Later, the wind finally stopped, and the Forestry Bureau went into the mountains to check the damaged trees in the forest, and unexpectedly found a large canyon, which no one knew before, because the wind blew off many trees, and this canyon was exposed. ”

"Canyon?" Chu Tianyi asked strangely.

"That's right," Xiao Meng nodded, "It's called Jinjiang Grand Canyon now, and now it's a tourist attraction, and many people go in to play every year." ”

Chu Tianyi suddenly became a little excited, "Has an expedition team been there for a scientific expedition?" ”

"It's necessary," Xiao Meng said, "The boss of that canyon is old, and many exploration teams have been inspecting it for several years!" ”

Chu Tianyi took a deep breath and suppressed the fluctuations in his heart. He had a hunch that his father's visit here must have something to do with the sudden appearance of this canyon. Maybe when you get to Manjiang Town, you will be able to find some clues about your father.

The harvest at this time made Chu Tianyi look forward to it, excited and a little apprehensive, but at the same time, the heart he had been carrying was slightly relaxed.

Xiao Meng drove the car, was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Hey, Brother Yi, I remembered what I said just now." In this way, the incident that happened to my uncle and them was just after the discovery of the gale-force in the Grand Canyon, do you say that the weird weather back then had anything to do with that dragon egg? ”

Chu Tianyi didn't believe much in Xiao Meng's story about dragon eggs, maybe his uncle made it up to coax the child, so he smiled and patted Xiao Meng's shoulder without speaking.

The car travels through the mountain road, and the sky is high and the clouds are faint against the rising peaks. The mountains stretch endlessly, and the wonderful scenery is breathtaking, and it has a strange attraction that attracts you to walk into it and explore it.

Near noon, Xiao Meng drove into a town, the town is not big, and it is not very prosperous, but the natural environment by the mountains and rivers makes it give people a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Chu Tianyi knew that this should be Manjiang Town, so Xiao Meng drove and stopped directly in front of a small restaurant, "It's noon, Brother Yi, let's eat something first, I happened to contact a local friend." ”

"Okay," Chu Tianyi nodded, and the two of them walked into the restaurant and sat down.

Xiao Meng picked up the menu and handed it to Chu Tianyi, "Brother Yi, what do you want to eat?" ”

Chu Tianyi waved his hand, "Just look at this, I'm free." ”

"Okay," Xiao Meng nodded, "Now that more and more people are coming to travel, the price of vegetables here has also increased a lot." Xiao Meng nodded and called the boss, ordered a sauerkraut stewed vermicelli, a pot of meat and a fried wild vegetables, and asked for two bottles of beer.

After the boss marked the name of the dish, he was just about to walk away, but Xiao Meng stopped him, "Hey, boss, let me ask you something?" ”

"What's the matter? You said. The boss turned and stopped.

Xiao Meng looked at Chu Tianyi, and then said to the boss, "Do you know that there is a place called the protection station on the west slope of Changbai Mountain in Manjiang Town?" ”

"Protection Station on the western slope of Changbai Mountain?" The boss tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head helplessly, "No, I've never heard of this place." ”

"Think about it again." Xiao Meng was worried that the boss would be perfunctory, so he urged.

"Brother, I really don't know," the boss smiled wryly, "I've lived here for decades, and I never knew there was such a place, are you mistaken, it's not our place?" ”

Xiao Meng smiled, "Aren't you?" It is called the protection station on the western slope of Changbai Mountain in Manjiang Town, it must be in Manjiang Town, and it is difficult to be in Urumqi! ”
