Xiao Fan looked at the place where I pointed and exclaimed, "No, you said that they went to Savage Mountain?" ”

"There is only one possibility, otherwise I can't think of any reason for them to take a detour to Jiangxinpo." I said with certainty, "Let's go over right away and get to Jiangxinpo and let Xiaotian follow them." As I spoke, I touched my backpack, and Xiao Tian poked out half of his head from it and looked around.

"Jiangxinpo" refers to a narrow strip of land between the Enmei Kaijiang River and the Maili Kaijiang River located in the east of Gaoligong Mountain in Yunnan, starting from Chayu County in Tibet in the north and reaching the Jiangao Mountain in Myanmar in the south, and you can enter the world-famous "Savage Mountain" through here.

Savage Mountain, in Burmese, means "the land where the devil lives". Most people familiar with the history of the Anti-Japanese War know it, it is located on the border between China and Myanmar and India, and is sandwiched between the towering Hengduan Mountains to the east and west. It was a reckless land where no one could enter, with jackals and beasts rampant, impermeable tropical rainforests, ubiquitous miasma, and swamps stretching endlessly, and once the human feet sank in, they immediately disappeared, and the expeditionary force suffered heavy losses here.

Worried about the safety of the glasses, Xiaofan and I quickly crossed the hinterland of Jiangxinpo. A large forest appeared ahead, the trees were lush and towering, and the plants of all kinds grew unusually luxuriantly, and the branches and leaves were layered on top of each other, like a huge umbrella cover, blocking all the sunlight, so that it looked a little gloomy during the day.

As soon as I walked into the forest, the ground was full of dead branches and leaves, and when I stepped on the soles of my shoes, a layer would stick to them, which was very disgusting. I took out the Moyu Tianjun Knife and walked towards the depths of the forest while cutting through the vines and weeds more than half a person high, and instructed Xiao Fan to follow me.

"Brother Long, look at it." Xiao Fan pointed to the root of a big tree and said.

I looked in the direction of her finger, and there were two marks on the roots of the tree, and there were two small circles on the side, and there was a horizontal line in the middle of the small circles. "It was the glasses that left it, and they got in here. It's just this mark, weird. I touched my chin and thought.

"Brother Long, what's wrong?" Xiao Fan asked.

I said, "You think, if Glasses has something important to do in Savage Mountain, then there is no need for him to leave any mark, and he will not lose contact for no reason. I had been suspicious before, but now that I see this mark, I can basically be sure that he was not held hostage, at least involuntarily. ”

"Are you saying that he left this mark for the people who came to him, that is, for us?" Xiao Fan seemed to understand a little.

I nodded, "There's only one explanation." It seems that the identity of these so-called travel friends is not simple. Let Xiaotian get out of the horse, so that the tracking is faster, and I hope that the glasses are fine. ”

When Xiao Tian heard me call it, he jumped out of his backpack and looked around vigilantly with a pair of small eyes. I pulled out a pair of glasses and let it sniff, then pointed to the mark under the root of the tree. Xiao Tian wagged its tail, and with a sudden, ran into the woods in front.

I beckoned Xiaofan to hurry up and follow, and after traveling more than 200 meters, I found the mark left by the glasses at the root of a tree. Xiao Fan was just about to walk in the direction of the marker, but Xiao Tian kept yelling in place, and I immediately grabbed Xiao Fan and asked her not to move forward yet.

I picked up a large stone and threw it forward, and it seemed to fall on top of a cloud of mud, and in a moment it all sank to the bottom. "It's a muddy swamp, and it's not small." I said.

Xiao Fan's face turned pale when he heard this, and he said with some fear: "This Savage Mountain is indeed worthy of its name, and this is why it has traveled such a distance." There is nothing wrong with the imprints left by the glasses, so how did they get there? ”

I looked around and saw a tree on the left stretching forward in a regular pattern, with arm-thick vines hanging from its branches. I gestured with my hand, "It should be this way." Xiaofan, I'll go first, if it's okay, you can go again. Xiao Fan was not at ease, and wrapped a flying rope around my waist, so that in case of danger, he could drag me back in time.

I picked up a large rock and put it in my backpack, then climbed onto the trunk of a tree, jumped and grabbed a vine, and pulled it hard, it was very strong indeed. I swung forward with my strength, grabbed the vines in front of me, and just like that, I swung as I clawed, and I advanced for about twenty meters until there were no more vines in front of me. I walked up to a nearby tree, grabbed a large rock and threw it to the ground, and the stone hit the ground heavily, confirming that it had passed the swamp.

I beckoned Xiaotian, only to see it come to me in a few leaps, and then began to look around, and when Xiaofan came safely, it had already found the mark left by the glasses.

This time, the notation is different, with two more triangles in addition to the direction and the markings unique to glasses. I was a little surprised, "These guys really have some background!" ”

Xiao Fan was a little puzzled and asked, "Brother Long, what does this triangular mark mean?" ”

"I have agreed with glasses on several special symbols, among which the triangle, the four directions, and the five stars correspond to the strength of the opponent. The triangle indicates that the other party has a very powerful person, followed by the four parties, and the five stars indicate that it is easy to deal with. The two triangles mean that there are two such powerful characters. I explained to her.

"I see. But the fact that the glasses left marks along the way at least showed that they didn't completely restrict his personal freedom. Xiaofan analyzed.

I agree with Xiao Fan, seeing that it is not early, I propose to find a place to rest for the night, it is very unwise to walk at night in a place like Savage Mountain. We found a leeward high ground and burned the fire in case some beasts attacked. In addition, Xiaofan has the secret insect-proof incense of the Zhang family, as long as it does not encounter poisonous or extremely bloodthirsty poisons, ordinary snakes, insects and poisonous ants will avoid it when they smell this incense.

Since I took Xiaotian out this time, it was relatively easy to keep vigil at night, so I asked Xiaofan to rest first, and I sat next to the fire with Xiaotian. In the second half of the night, a strong sense of sleepiness hit, and in the confusion, a voice seemed to call to me: Come back, come back, come back!

I turned into the voice and asked, "Who the hell are you?" ”

"I want you to return!" The voice in the darkness replied, as if with some kind of strong anticipation.

When I heard this name, I had a very familiar feeling, "Wangjungui, are you a golden retriever?" I asked again.

"Exactly. I have guarded thousands of days, just waiting for the time of disaster. Golden Retriever said.

"What did you mean by returning?" I asked again.

The golden retriever was silent for a long time, "The sword will come out, the king has not returned, the calamity is coming, and the strength has not been achieved." Time is running out! After saying that, I felt a drop of blood fall on my forehead, and an unbearable sharp pain came, and I couldn't help but scream.

"Brother Long, Brother Long, wake up!" I opened my eyes and saw Xiao Fan's worried expression.

"Xiaofan, what happened to me just now?" I felt like my whole body was soaked in sweat, but that scene was so real, I quickly touched my forehead, "Xiaofan, has there been any change in my head?" ”

Xiao Fan looked at it carefully and shook his head, "No, it's okay." Brother Long, are you having a nightmare? ”

I shook my head vigorously and looked around again, and the sky was already bright, and everything in front of me was still the same as yesterday, but I felt that the dream was so real.

"Well, I seem to have had a very strange dream. But it's okay, let's go find the glasses first. "I got up and packed my things and got ready to go.

According to the marks we saw yesterday, under the tracking of Xiaotian, we searched all the way. The woods are getting denser, making the whole environment hot and humid, and it feels very oppressive. Fortunately, it is not the rainy season, otherwise the locusts in the forest are not a joke, and they will be sucked dry if you are not careful.

We chased a cliff in front of us about a section about ten meters wide. A large tree trunk the thickness of a man was erected in the middle, and it was simply reinforced with ropes, and it seemed that the glasses must have passed through this trunk.

I tested the firmness of the trunk of the tree, and was about to let Xiao Fan pass first, when Xiao Tian suddenly roared backwards. We looked back in amazement and saw a few deer scurrying out of the woods, jumping past the trunks of the trees and running to the other side. Immediately after that, several more wolves ran out, and strangely enough, they had no intention of attacking us at all, and ran directly to the other side of the cliff like the fawn. More and more animals came out next, and there were even pythons that were five or six meters long.

I thought this was the reason why Xiao Tian yelled, but Xiao Tian kept screaming, and at the same time ran to the trunk of the tree and yelled at the two of us. "No, Xiaofan, run!" I hurriedly pushed Xiao Fan to the opposite side.

There was a roar of fighter jets in the woods, and a large cloud of black fog swept in. A leopard ran a little slower, was stained with black mist, and instantly became a dried corpse of a leopard. "It's a bloodthirsty poisonous mosquito, not afraid of secret medicine, run!" It turned out that this black mist was actually composed of poisonous mosquitoes the size of an adult's fist, and once they encountered it, they would definitely die.

Xiao Fan and I ran desperately from the trunk to the opposite side, but more and more animals came out of the woods, many jumped on the trunk, and some fell directly off the cliff, even so, it slowed down me and Xiao Fan's running speed a lot. Seeing that the black fog was getting closer and closer, a huge wild boar ran out of the forest, jumped up at once, and the trunk of the tree crumbled, and began to appear cracks, and it seemed that it could not hold it anymore.

I was in a hurry and shouted at Xiaotian: "Xiaotian, take her away!" Xiao Tian transformed into a tengu real body, grabbed Xiao Fan's backpack at once, and dragged her to the opposite side at a very fast speed.

I saw that Xiaofan had passed, and I was about to speed up and run over, but the trunk couldn't stand anymore, and it broke in the middle with a "click". My heart was horizontal, I ran a few steps, followed by a big jump to the opposite side, Xiaofan wanted to reach out and grab me, but unfortunately it was only a palm away from my hand.

"Brother Long! No! Xiao Fan shouted loudly.
