Chapter 20 Inscriptions

Put away your cross, useless.

Ringer knocked Shabonny's cross into the air, and that night, the skeleton man slapped the silver cross in his hand, and you still have a wooden hand in your hand, which is for ghosts.

Shabonny hurried over and hung the cross around his neck like a treasure.

"God will punish you! You don't know what to do. ”

Shabonny nagged behind him, following Ringer almost with his hands and feet.

But Ringer didn't go fast.

The blizzard came, and through the gaps in the canopy, the sky was low, and in the forest, it was completely dark.

Ringer lit the torch.

Even at the bottom of the forest, the snow wind still blows the torches in all directions.

Ringer finally realized that not only had he made a hasty decision, but he had not yet made a complete preparation, there were not many torches, only six, and that the six torches had to go out of the forest before they could be burned, and he believed that they had just entered the edge of the forest, and it would not be difficult to get out.

Ringer chose one of the footprints, he couldn't discern the direction, if there was a sun, it would be better, as long as there was a sun, he wouldn't get lost.

Now, he can't see the sun.

"Rasputin, did you say that Michal damn thing chased after him, saw that the situation was wrong, and ran away again?"

Ringer paused: "I can't be sure, maybe it is, our footprints are all messed up, it looks like there are a lot of people passing along the route of our footprints, Michal is up to four people, I don't know why there are so many." ”

"Did Michal do this on purpose to confuse our judgment, and he wanted to trap us in the dark forest?"

"It's not impossible."

"I hate him! I'm going to bite him to death! ”

"Leave some strength to walk, Shabonny."

Half an hour later, Ringer also became frightened, they were lost, and they seemed to be walking back to their original starting point, the evidence, the extinguished bonfire.

Shabonny plopped and knelt again: "It's over!" ”

A word popped up in Ringer's heart: ghost hitting the wall.

"Calm down, Shabonny, we're just at the edge of the forest, we can't die."

Ringer re-chose the route, probably in a southerly direction.

Two hours later, Ringer himself didn't know where he was going, and the footprints he followed were no longer horses, only human footprints, were they Sheriff Michal?

Ringer was also tired, and the whirring old cow was panting.

Cold weather, coupled with so deep snow, is the most physically demanding.

Ringer lit a bonfire again, they needed to replenish their energy, they couldn't march so blindly.

After eating, drinking some wine, and warming up, Ringer climbed the tallest tree beside him, he wanted to see the direction from the tree, it was terrible, the wind and snow were too big, his vision was limited, and five hundred meters away, he could not see anything, only a foggy patch.

He got down the tree.

"How's it going, buddy?"

"I can't see the direction clearly, I wonder if we should wait for the blizzard to stop before leaving."

Shabonny shouted: "You madman, you know when the snow will stop, and if we don't leave now, the snow will bury us like two poor little mice!" ”

Shabonny is right about this, the heavy snow in Siberia is very perverted, and if it is for several days in a row, the thickness will reach two or three meters, which is no joke.

There is no choice, let's go.

Eight hours later, Ringer was so exhausted that Shabonny couldn't walk at all.

A third bonfire rises.

"Tomorrow, let's go tomorrow."

Ringer didn't know how far they were from the edge of the forest, whether they were close, or if they were .....

The place where they lit the campfire, the forest was very sparse, and there was a rare flat land, and Ringer rested for a while, feeling as if the position had been artificially built.

He searched for a while and found a stone tablet.

Only a small section of the stele was exposed, and everything else was buried in snowdrifts.

But there is a font on the tombstone: it is in Russian.

Ringer peeled all the snow away, revealing the stele as it was.

"Shabonny, come here, come here, look, what's written on this?"

Shabonny got up as best he could and came to the stele.

"The Tomb of the General of the Siberian Khanate, Tudchuba."

Shabonny read the words on the stele.

Siberian Khanate, what does it mean?

Shabonny also came to the spirit and said: "I heard my former Chinese teacher say that hundreds of years ago, about four hundred years, the Grand Duke of Moscow, Ivan III, led a large army to defeat the Golden Horde and drove the Mongols away, at the same time, there was another country, called the Siberian Khanate, which also defeated the Mongols, and later, Duke Ivan IV sent a man named Yermak to fight the Siberian Khanate, Yermak was the leader of the Cossack bandits, and in desperation, he defected to the Stroganov family, and his team expanded to eight hundred, Also armed with firearms and ammunition, the army of the Siberian Khanate, which was inferior in weapons, was not at all an opponent. It only took Yermak two years to conquer the capital of the Siberian Khanate, and finally became the Siberian Khanate, occupying the whole of Siberia, and then later, they went east to find trouble with the Qing State, and they were beaten by others, just like that, just like that, I know this. ”

Qing Guo, it should be the Qing Dynasty.

Ringer touched the inscription: "So, this general named Tudchuba is the general of the Siberian Khanate, right?" ”,

Shabonny said: "It should be like this, I heard that after the Siberian Khanate was wiped out, there were not many people left. ”

Ringer stood up: "Then you say, there are no descendants of the Siberian Khanate in this forest." ”

Shabonny: "What does this have to do with us, our current mission is to get out of this place as soon as possible!" ”
