Chapter 108: The Pile of Stones in the Barren Valley
Professor He's death brought not only sadness, but also shock, no one expected that an old professor who seemed to be polite would give up his life in such a dangerous situation, leaving us with the opportunity to escape.
The person who has the deepest relationship with Professor He here is Xiao Zhang, and it is human nature that he will be so excited. Lao Zhong noticed Xiao Zhang's hateful gaze of surrender, frowned, and didn't say anything. I didn't want to have a pimple in our team, so I patiently persuaded him, "Xiao Zhang, you also saw that situation at that time, Professor He sacrificed himself for himself, and everyone admired him very much, but you can't despise the people who escaped because of this, let alone think that Professor He was killed by us." ”
Xiao Zhang lowered his voice and swallowed, didn't he? If you hadn't handed him over, how would he have been blown to pieces?
I also felt a little indebted to Professor He in my heart, and I stopped talking. At that time, the scene was too chaotic, and no one could care about thinking so much, but now that he calmed down, he naturally began to feel annoyed in his heart, maybe we shouldn't have run to the back mountain at that time, so that Professor He could also be saved.
But there is no regret medicine in the world, since we have come here, we should put away our hearts and continue to complete the next task, I saw that Xiao Zhang was not in good spirits, so I didn't bother anymore, walked to the side and opened the mountaineering bag, took out the clothes in the sleeping bag, everyone changed into clean clothes, took off the old clothes on the body into a ball, tied them to the stone and threw them into the river.
The clothes are lightweight, and if they are not tied to a stone, they will definitely float on the waterway, and the people of the Li tribe may use this as a clue to find our whereabouts.
Everyone rested against the stone for two hours, the sky has been thoroughly measured, the cold wind is blowing, I know that everyone keeps shivering again, the mountain breeze here is cold, the water vapor is enough, the water vapor in the deep mountains is full in the morning, it is the coldest time of the day, I saw Xiao Zhang's face was blue from the cold, and I found a cotton jacket for him to put on, Xiao Zhang looked at me, and his eyes were still red after a night, I wanted to say thank you, but I didn't say anything.
He is a knowledgeable person, what Professor He died for, naturally he knows very well in his heart, but the most beloved mentor has left, and he died so miserably, which makes Xiao Zhang very depressed in his heart, and he was not angry last night to target anyone, but just to vent his emotions.
I understood his thoughts, so I didn't care, and when I turned around, I saw that Chen Yun was discussing the next route with Lao Zhong, so I took the initiative to go up, and heard Lao Zhong saying, "We are in the belly of the mountain, if you want to enter the Yelang ruins, the fastest way is to walk in a straight line, but this will be very dangerous, there are many rocks in the mountain, and the cliff is steep, in case something goes wrong on the way, it will definitely outweigh the loss." ”
Chen Yun glanced at the foot of the mountain, pointed to the back ridge that naturally formed an arc, and said that the rock formation here is relatively stable, which should support us to fall down.
I walked up and said, "Let's listen to the old bell, let's take a detour." Chen Yun asked why? I pointed to the small stream ditch behind me, and said that we were floating down the waterway, and there was no fork in the ditch, and the Li people were very likely to catch up along the stream, although the road on the ridge was the fastest, but the cliff was steep, and there was no cover, in case we hung down, we were caught up by the Li people, and we were hanging in the air, how should we face it?
Chen Yun thought about it for a while and said that they shouldn't dare to catch up, don't you say that the back mountain is a forbidden place? I pointed to Ah Li and said that she could follow us into the mountains, and the Li people naturally could, and the taboo was specially used to break this kind of thing, and this time the Li people made a lot of trouble because of our heavy losses, and I felt that the high priest should not be so easy to stop.
"Okay, then take a detour, there is another river at the foot of the mountain, didn't Uncle Heza take you through it before? Do you recognize it? Chen Yun agreed with my plan and nodded and asked.
I said no, I didn't cross the river at that time, so I didn't know what was going on the other side of the river, but anyway, we came here, no matter what difficulties and obstacles, we could only break through, and I really wanted to try what terrible monsters were waiting for me in the forbidden land of the Li people.
Professor He's death made me hold back a fire in my heart, and I secretly made up my mind that I must enter the Yelang ruins to break through, and there is no way back for running horses on the cliff, if I don't go forward, I have to face the Li people behind me, and the left and right are dangerous.
"Alright then, follow the original plan by water, it should be safer!" Seeing that I was so persistent, Chen Yun didn't say anything, and beckoned everyone to pack their luggage and find it out in the cracks in the rocky walls on the side of the cliff.
The ancient Yelang site covers a wide range, including the Ten Thousand Snake Ridge that we have flipped through, which is also part of it, but the most valuable place for archaeological research is the center of the canyon, Chen Yun is full of expectations, saying that maybe we can find another "Sanxingdui" this time.
We climbed down the cliff, and after scrapping the nine oxen and two tigers, we completely left the area covered by the Ten Thousand Snake Ridge, turned into the mountains, and turned into the unique tropical rainforest in Southeast Asia.
The climate of the Southeast Asian rainforest is humid, and the jungle is also very dense, not like the lush scene that stretches with the mountains in the north.
Walking in the barren forest is not a pleasant thing, I found that this kind of place is simply not able to judge the direction through the feng shui secrets, the mountain hooks rise and fall vertically and horizontally, from the cloud canyon, there are scattered smoke clouds gathering, even if you stand high, you can only see the white fog miasma piles at a glance, the visual distance is greatly limited, and it is impossible to judge the direction of the "potential" here through the method of feng shui observation, and it is impossible to talk about sitting on the mountain and looking at the qi.
We walked in the barren forest for nearly two hours, thorns were everywhere, weeds were deep, down the slope, there was a mess of rocks, and the hillside was scattered with these diamond-shaped graves, I don't know whose wild father was buried here, and the grave grass was already two feet long.
At first, I didn't think that there was a grave in this messy stone hill, but Chen Yun, who was walking in front, pulled out a pile of terracotta figurine fragments from a pile of scattered stones, and judged that this place should have been the burial place of the Gu Yelang people.
However, this barren forest mound has existed for an unknown number of years, and even the rocks have been corroded by the years to the point that there are no edges and corners, even if there are things buried under the stone pile, I am afraid that they have already rotted into slag, and there is not much money, so Ge Zhuang just dug a few times casually, and then stopped chattering.
On the contrary, Chen Yun had a strong interest in these old graves made of stones, and held the camera to pose for a while, delaying a lot of time.
