Chapter 211: Leaving Again
Cheng Yuan's low cheers and Gong Yuling and the others' shouts getting closer and closer filled Gu Xingpei's ears at the same time. Even though there was still some uncertainty in his mind, Gu Xingpei still let go of Guan Yasheng's waist and turned around and went to the depths of the bushes.
"Gu Xingpei!"
Guan Yasheng shouted Gu Xingpei's name heartbreakingly, but the other party never looked back.
At this time, Guan Yasheng wanted to chase again, but he was already powerless. What's more, because of the arrival of Gong Yuling and others, Cheng Yuan also took Gu Xingpei to speed up his pace, and disappeared into the jungle after a while.
When Gong Yuling and the others found Guan Yasheng with a flashlight, they saw Guan Yasheng sitting on the ground very embarrassed, his clothes and hair were a little messy, and he was sitting and crying very sadly.
"What's going on?" Gong Yuling and the others immediately stepped forward, and Guan Wenfei was the first to pull Guan Yasheng up from the ground, and was also startled when he saw that her legs were covered with blood.
"I saw Gu Xingpei! Brother, I really saw Gu Xingpei just now! Guan Yasheng cried breathlessly and grabbed Guan Wenfei's hand: "But I can't stop him, brother, can you help me get him back?" ”
What Guan Yayoi said surprised everyone present.
Gong Yuling and Cheng Lingsu glanced at each other, and they both thought that Guan Yasheng was hallucinating? They have always been on the island, but they have never seen Gu Xingpei on the island, so how could they let Guan Yasheng meet them on the island?
But at this moment, the old chief, who came here at the back, changed his face after hearing Guan Yasheng's words: "Could it be that someone came in through the mountain behind the island?" ”
"Yes!"
Guan Yasheng nodded hurriedly, pointed to the direction in which Gu Xingpei disappeared and said, "I chased them all the way here just now, and they wanted to leave when they heard that you were coming, that is, they went down from this road." ”
The old chief walked for a while, looked over, and then his face became extremely serious: "This is not a trivial matter! This back mountain is our forbidden land, how can they know about it? ”
However, looking around, the old chief always felt uneasy, so he said to everyone, "Let's go, go back first." ”
So, Guan Wenfei carried Guan Yasheng on his back and returned to his residence under the escort of Gong Yuling and others.
By this time, most of the island's residents had gone home to rest, and the dead of night was a good time to talk about things. The old chief returned to his home with a few people, and after entering the door, he looked left and right, and made sure that no one had closed the door and locked it, looking mysterious.
"Old chief, you seem to be scared from just now, why?" Gong Yuling had been staring at the old chief with some suspicion. From just now, he noticed that the old chief's mood had always been very nervous, and he had been urging everyone to leave the back mountain quickly, and he was not even willing to look for Gu Xingpei, which was really abnormal.
At this time, Guan Yasheng's mood was still unstable, and he kept pulling Guan Wenfei to tell how she met Gu Xingpei just now, and again
How was he dumped by Gu Xingpei...... It seems like trying to prove that you're not dreaming.
Guan Wenfei could only gently hold Guan Yasheng in his arms and try to comfort her.
The old chieftain walked back and forth in the room for a while before he sighed and said, "Hey...... There are some things I shouldn't have told you outsiders, but now it seems that there is really no way to do it. ”
The more the old chief was so grinding, the more impatient Gong Yuling became: "Old chief, if you know something, just say it, don't wait for something to happen, it's too late." ”
To be honest, everyone is still a little scared now. After all, no matter how affectionate Gu Xingpei was with Guan Yasheng at the beginning, but now he is a person who has lost his mind after all, and there is a Cheng Yuan by his side who is instigating, Guan Yasheng is already fortunate that he was only injured this time and not lost his life.
The old chief obviously thought of this, and was willing to tell the secret that had been buried in his heart for many years.
"Actually, the back mountain is a forbidden place on our island, and under normal circumstances, no one is allowed to enter it. Not just because our ancestors are buried there, but because there is something hidden there that is vital to the safety of our entire island. ”
The old chief's words were really a little scary, and even Guan Yasheng, who was immersed in the situation just now and couldn't extricate himself, raised his head to look at him.
"What's so scary?" Gong Yuling frowned: "Could it be that Cheng Yuan took Gu Xingpei to come to the island secretly just for the thing you said?" ”
"It's a map, the one I told you before." The old chief hammered his head with some annoyance: "Actually, I have selfish intentions, and I didn't tell you all the information before...... That map was indeed the map of our island to the Polar Shades, but it didn't pass through the sea, but below the surface. ”
"What?" This shocked everyone present.
"Although our small island looks unremarkable, the world under the island is said to be very strange." The old chief took out an old cigarette gun and lit it, and then sat down in his chair and told the people about the secret.
"Our island is said to be related to the Land of the Extreme Yin. A long time ago, in order to survive, our ancestors wanted to go to the islands of the Extreme Yin Land to obtain more resources, but because the sea could not get through, they opened up the tunnel under the sea to the Extreme Yin Land......"
The old chief told the story of thousands of years ago, and Guan Yayoi and others now know that there is such a past.
"So, that map is buried in the graves of your ancestors?" Gong Yuling and Guan Wenfei both looked a little nervous, it seemed that as long as the old chief nodded, they could immediately go to the back mountain to dig out the map.
But the old chief shook his head solemnly: "I advise you not to do this. I knew the whereabouts of the map but didn't tell you, what do you think it was for? It's to save your lives! back then
After our ancestors went to the Polar Yin Land through the underground passages, they encountered many rare beasts and fish that they had never seen before, all of which were very ferocious and bloodthirsty, causing our ancestors to come back very embarrassed, with only three or four people left. ”
"Later, when our ancestors died, they brought the map to the grave and set up a mechanism in the tomb so that our descendants would not act so impulsively!" The old chief said, and sighed again: "It's a pity that although we didn't go through the passage under the sea, we carelessly broke into the land of extreme yin...... It eventually led to tragedy. ”
"Speaking of which, are you trying to persuade us to give up?" Gong Yuling was quite dissatisfied when he heard this: "But you must know that it is not only us who are staring at this map now, but also Cheng Yuan and them!" Do you want the map to fall into Cheng Yuan's hands?! ”
Gong Yuling's words immediately woke everyone up.
The old chief, in particular, stared at him with wide eyes for a long time before suddenly hiding his face: "This is ...... How so! ”
"Although we don't know exactly how the news reached Cheng Yuan's ears." Guan Yasheng also followed to persuade the old chief: "But I just looked at his posture, it seems that it is imperative for this map. Old chief, you should know that the map is more terrible in his hands than in our possession! ”
"Yes, and he came quietly this time but was discovered by us, and I don't know what means he will use next time." Cheng Lingsu also followed.
Thinking of the plague and the bombings before, everyone couldn't help but sweat.
Considering the safety of the entire island's residents, the old chief could only breathe a sigh of relief in the end: "Okay...... Tomorrow night, I'll take you to find the map. ”
It was only when the old chief replied in the affirmative that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
On this day and night, several people were so excited that they couldn't sleep. never expected that Cheng Yuan's mistake would give them the upper hand. Once you get the map and get to the island, you'll be able to solve everything.
Finally waited until the evening of the next day, Guan Yasheng and the others prepared their equipment early, and just waited for night to fall and arrived at the entrance of the back mountain with the old chief.
"Come with me." The old chief did not take Guan Yayoi and the others to the old road, but walked under a big tree in front of the mountain. After taking a closer look, Sekiya and the others discovered that there was a cave hidden behind the tree, but the entrance of the cave was already covered by bushes, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while.
A few men, led by the old chief, began to cut down the bushes, and after about ten minutes of cutting, the entire hole was revealed to everyone.
The hole is not large, and it can only accommodate two or three people at most side by side. Therefore, Guan Yasheng, Guan Wenfei, Gong Yuling, Cheng Lingsu, as well as Qiao Mu and Su Qinglime, under the leadership of the old chief, divided into three rows and entered the cave one after another.
Guan Wenfei and Gong Yuling walked in the front under the leadership of the old chief, holding torches in their hands to illuminate the cave.
Although it is on the island
, but the hole is not damp. If you go a little further, you will see that there are candlesticks on both sides of the cave, and inside are the oil of the ever-bright lamps.
Guan Wenfei lit them one by one with torches, and the entire cave became bright.
"Come with me, and go inside." The old chief led them to the depths of the cave: "Although I haven't been here yet, judging from the words left by our ancestors, if you go some distance further, you will almost reach the center, there will be many mechanisms here, everyone must be careful." ”
Gong Yuling was a little inexplicable when he said this: "Since it is the tomb of your own ancestors, don't you know how to crack the mechanism here?" ”
"Of course not." The old chief shook his head very calmly: "The ancestors designed this mechanism to prevent anyone from entering. ”
"Then when you bring us here to start, it is equivalent to sending us to death?" When Gong Yuling heard this, he was even more dissatisfied.
"I can't help it, I can only figure it out on my own."
