Gao Chuan and I both had murderous intent, or in the face of such a behemoth, the only thing we could do was to kill it, and it was impossible to capture it alive.

The ancient ape didn't pounce immediately after being excited, staring at the short sword in Gao Chuan's hand, it was obvious that it already knew how powerful it was after suffering a loss, and it was a little jealous.

But when I stopped, my brows furrowed, and I said to Gao Chuan: "It's the one on Kunlun Mountain!" ”

"How is that possible!" Gao Chuan naturally didn't believe it, I pointed to the bronze mask on the face of the ancient ape, "Do you remember when you were in Snow Valley, Li Chuang shot an ancient ape?" Look at the mask on its face, there is a very obvious scratch! ”

Takakawa followed my guidance and found the bullet mark as well.

After all, the ape is a living creature, and we have been away from Kunlun Mountain for more than ten days, so it has time to migrate here. And Professor Liu Tiande also said that their bones have been found in Death Valley, but how to explain the ice and snow on the ground?

The fog cleared, Death Valley was in full view, and the landscape had changed greatly, the valley floor was flat, and there were no mountains in sight, but now there were several more mountains, all covered with ice and snow.

The off-road vehicle escaped a hundred meters and stopped, and the ancient ape at this time was also angered by us and did not stare at that side.

Takakawa whispered, "I feel like this thing is particularly sensitive to moving things!" ”

I agree with it, and just now I stomped on the throwing knife, which shocked me to death.

Gao Chuan glanced at my slightly open hands, and at the same time saw my ring, and sensed that there was something in the middle, and he reached out to touch it.

I was so frightened that I put it away and exclaimed, "Don't touch it, it's sharp!" ”

I don't know if Gao Chuan guessed correctly, or if the ancient ape was jealous, it also quieted down after showing off, staring at us without any intention of making a move.

Gao Chuan frowned slightly, thinking of something, frowned and asked, "There is an invisible silk thread in the middle?" Celestial silk? I remember the excavation of the ancient tomb of Loulan, with the participation of troops, and a silkworm chrysalis was found inside......"

I didn't expect him to know about this secret, and I wondered if he came out of that unit. But I didn't dare to move the silkworm chrysalis, it was a national treasure, I just touched a silk next to it and secretly hid it. I can't say this kind of thing explicitly, but if it gets out, it will be a big problem.

Gao Chuan had the posture of getting to the bottom of the matter, and I replied, "When is it, you still talk about this, now you have to find a way to overturn this thing!" ”

Seeing us chattering, the ape seemed to be interested, and tilted his head from time to time, as if listening.

"Can it understand us?" Takakawa is a little incredible, but I know from Yukiya that it can understand us, but it is estimated that it can understand a few words, and it is impossible to understand all of them.

"I have a solution, you see its huge body, no matter how fast it is, it is a little clumsy, the two of us will do it at the same time, and I will find a chance to break its feet."

It sounds cruel, but it's not hostile now, but if we move a little bigger, it will be on alert right away, and there will be no doubt that if we move a lot, it will attack immediately.

But at this moment, Shen Xue and Zhang Hu got out of the car and walked over in the wind and snow, and the ancient ape immediately noticed it, and roared at them, looking very angry, but at this moment, a gunshot rang out from Shen Xue's hand, and the ancient ape's body staggered, completely crazy, and roared and threw himself towards Shen Xue.

Shen Xue was a little panicked, Zhang Hu quickly took the gun when he saw this, and fired two shots in a row, the ancient ape's body shook even more, but he still pounced forward.

Gao Chuan and I were originally about ten meters away from the ancient ape, and it was too late to think about it. But seeing that he was about to pounce, the ancient ape staggered, raised his hands high, and fell down in front of Shen Xue in a big word.

The tranquilizer gun, I also heard it at this time, and quickly ran towards Shen Xue and Zhang Hu. Looking closely, I found that this ancient ape is really big, with its hands and feet stretched out at least five meters long, and it is a behemoth lying in the snow.

Shen Xue's face turned pale, and the crazy actions of the ancient ape just now scared her a lot.

Takakawa and I went over, and she beckoned us to turn the ape's body over and take the mask from its face.

Both of them came, there was only Xiaomei in the car, she couldn't drive, and she couldn't even open the car door skillfully, and there were two ancient apes in Kunlun Mountain, and the other could appear at any time, I didn't come forward to help, but went back to the car to pick up Xiaomei.

When he came back, the ancient ape had already been turned over, Shen Xue was busy with his hands, and said in his mouth: "The mask I found here in 83 years, I have seen it, there is a map engraved in it, but the map inside is not Death Valley, nor Kunlun Mountain, the expedition team has been looking for it for more than ten years, but it has not been able to figure out where the location marked on the map is!" ”

"You're saying there's a map in this mask too?" Zhang Hu asked.

"Should!"

Shen Xue replied briefly, meaning that the faces of the eight ancient apes were all there. She continued to tinker with the bronze mask, but it was completely clasped to the ape's face, and there was a buckle at the chin that could not be removed.

"Let me come!" I squatted down, let Gao Chuan hold the head of the ancient ape, pulled the silk in the ring, and tightened it and squeezed it in little by little.

Bronze is a very strong metal, but it is still a little worse than iron. Moreover, the slenderness of silk is far thinner than the sharpest blade, and with its unrivaled toughness, it is not difficult to cut in.

It's just that the ancient ape has been anesthetized, and I don't want to hurt its life, so I did it more carefully, and it took half a minute to cut it open, break it hard, and take off the mask. When I turned it over, I saw that an ancient map was burned.

But this kind of map, we can't understand it at all.

Shen Xue seemed to have done a lot of research, so he returned to the car and found pen and paper, and began to copy the map, but using the contour lines and scales commonly used in modern maps. The stall he drawn, I got out of the car with Gao Chuan to check the terrain, and found that the Death Valley at this time was completely different when I followed up, and the changes were very large.

I speculated: "Shen Xue said, the map on the mask has been searched for more than ten years, and it has not been found after comparing Death Valley and Kunlun Mountain, could it be what we see in front of us?" ”

The change in the terrain surprised us, but we couldn't find a reasonable explanation, but we have seen the black fog in Kunlun Mountain, and we have seen the strange space under the altar, and we are not afraid.

Gao Chuan also let go of the shackles in his heart, and made a bold guess: "Could it be something similar to the formation, the position we are in now is exactly in the formation, and this formation is connected to a certain place in Kunlun Mountain, and the ancient ape is teleported through it, not the migration as we guessed." ”

My grandfather and I have learned some Taoism, but they are all superficial things, although he said that those I have learned have unimaginable power, but how much power can an ordinary person exert?

The amulet in the Kunlun Mountains glows and forces back the flying skin, which is already a very remarkable thing for me, and the important thing is the trick and sigil he taught me. Except for the small tricks used to break the evil spirit, the rest are completely useless.

So now when I hear Gao Chuan talk about the formation, I still can't accept it.

Gao Chuan shook his head and smiled when he saw me, and he didn't continue to talk.

But at this moment, Shen Xue in the car suddenly said: "Gao Chuan is right, we are indeed in the formation, and the map on the bronze mask is the map in the formation, no wonder the expedition team has found nothing for more than ten years." ”

"The formations are all protected, it's not that we can enter as soon as we enter, could it be that we hit by mistake and happen to open the formation automatically?"

I took the map in her hand, and my mouth was still on my lips. After just one glance, I turned my head and looked at the two snowy slopes not far ahead.

It was the first landmark, and there were similar landmarks to follow, and as for the end, Shenxue marked it with a big question mark.

Shen Xue took my words and said, "It's not by mistake, but because of your existence, you have witch blood flowing in your body, and this is a witch clan!" ”

She shook the bronze mask in her hand and pointed to the words inside. I don't understand it, but what she said is clearly the one above.

The ancient ape guards the altar, which should be raised by the Wu clan, so the above record is completely credible.

And I am of Wu blood, this is not the first time I have heard this, and I have not taken it to heart, after all, in my opinion, the Chiyou in the Central Plains of Zhuolu was still Yanhuang, they were all the same people, but they were just different nationalities.

What else can be the difference in the blood?

Of course, I didn't ask this kind of thing, but asked Shen Xue, whether my father is a descendant of the Wu clan, or whether my mother is a descendant of the Wu clan. She didn't hide it and said, "Your mother, it can be said that the members of the entire Heavenly Abyss are all descendants of the Wu Clan. ”

I wondered, could it be that my father and mother turned against each other, and it had something to do with this?

And since they are descendants of the Wu clan, they also have masks, how could they not find them here?

Shen Xue couldn't answer my question, so she pointed to the question mark on the map and said, "When you get here, you may be able to solve the doubts in your heart." You can't drive the car, so find a place to hide. ”

If you get a clue, there's no reason not to go. Gao Chuan climbed into the carriage, untied the safety rope, and took a salute each, I opened Su Xiaomei's backpack, took half of the water inside, and put it in two days' worth of dry food.

I tasted the snow just now, and I can eat it.

They all saw it, and they all followed suit. Mine also took a lot of it, replaced it with some dry food and lighting equipment, and after thinking about it, I took out the flashlight again and said to them: "My grandfather said that unclean things can affect things with magnetic fields, and flashlights can also be disturbed, and we cross belts." ”

Shen Xue is very well prepared this time, there is a fluorescent cluster flashlight, its light sense is not as strong as the flashlight, but it is durable, not easy to break, the important thing is chemiluminescence, there is no magnetic field.

I stuffed one for my little sister and taught her how to use it.

After getting it done, Takakawa drove the car to a sheltered place and covered it with a camouflage cloth, so that the ancient ape would not wake up and spread his anger on it.

After getting ready, the five of them walked in groups towards the snow slope in front.

On the way, I said: "If it is really a formation, then it is very likely that no one has been to this place for hundreds or even thousands of years, and the fact that the ancient ape can appear in it means that creatures can survive in it, and we are likely to encounter something that we have never seen before." ”

As soon as I said this, everyone became nervous, after all, there is nothing more frightening than the unknown. On the way, I gave the dagger to my little sister, at least when I couldn't take care of it, she had a weapon to turn over and resist.
