The person who was most shocked to see such a scene was actually Tenzin Kava, who had tried his best to control his expression, but still did not hide the disbelief on his face.

His face turned blue and white for a while, and finally turned an angry crimson.

"What's going on?!" He grabbed Farrado's neckline, almost touching the tip of his nose, his eyes filled with anger, "Didn't you say that after passing through the cave, you can reach the temple?" ”

"I, I......" Farrado's neck was stuck by the collar, his face was flushed, and he couldn't speak for a while.

John on the side hurriedly said, "Please calm down, Mr. Sir, you will kill him like this-"

Jia Jie slammed the muzzle of his gun against John's chest, and said coldly, "Stand back." ”

"No, no, no!" , John quickly raised his hands and showed that he had no malicious intent, "Please listen to my explanation-"

"I'll give you a minute to explain." Tenzin Kava let go of his grip on Farador's neckline like a pincer, and the latter coughed and tears came out.

"We don't have ...... Lie to you, Lord Sir. Farado pointed to the glacier in front of him, "According to the information we have received, it is true that you can enter the borders of the ancient kingdom of Somol by crossing the cave where the remains of the bone tower are located. ”

"You're saying - just walk out of the cave and we'll see the ruins of the temple!" Tenzin Kawa held out a finger and focused heavily on Farado's chest as he spoke, and the latter recoiled.

Farrado began to knot his tongue: "If the information we get is true, it should be, it is so, but it is ......"

"I don't want to hear anything 'but'! I paid a lot of money and died a lot of people to bring you two pieces of waste here, and you're trying to tell me now, maybe the information you got was wrong?! ”

Farrado looked at the endless glacier and wanted to cry without tears: "I, I don't know why, but maybe, maybe the temple is right in front of us, but we can't see ......"

I looked at the huge glacier in front of me and suddenly said, "Maybe he's right." ”

"What did you say?!" Tenzin Kava turned his head to look at me suddenly.

"From the analysis of the information leaked from your conversation, these two, Mr. Farrado and Mr. John, they certainly did not arrive here in person, at most they only learned some of the secrets of this place from some source. But we all know that in thousands of years, the sea can still be turned into mulberry fields, and those ancient ruins, of course, are extremely difficult to be well preserved. There are too many uncontrollable factors that can exert influence. ”

Tenzin Kava seemed to understand a little, but he hadn't thought of the key yet, he frowned slightly and said, "Please continue." ”

"Remember the ice lake we crossed at the beginning?"

As soon as I said this, Tenzin Kava's eyebrows jumped suddenly!

I pointed to the glacier in front of me, which towered into the sky like a huge and shattered glass, and continued: "A long time ago, this may have been a dry valley plain, but with global warming, glaciers all over the world are moving and melting at an accelerated pace, and since the bottom of the glacial belt we passed through has become a glacial lake, then it is also possible that the valley plain where the temple is located will also be covered by moving glaciers - Sir Tenzin Kava, you Sherpas should know this better than I do. ”

Tenzin Kawa was still frowning and thinking deeply, but several Sherpa guides on the side all nodded lightly, their faces were abrupt, and as for Farrado and John, they were even more relieved, looking like they had escaped death.

Tenzin Kava's gaze froze on the glacier for a long time, and finally said, "Okay, let's keep going until we find the Somol Temple." ”

Everyone began to get ready to get up, but only the four of us did not move, Tenzin Kawa looked at me with questioning eyes, and the old knife shook the M4 carbine in his hand, signaling that we also have guns, and do not try to force by force.

Tenzin Kava took a deep breath: "What do you want to do?" ”

"We're not going to go any further."

"Why? There is no way back behind you, there is the serpent behind you, and you cannot go back through the cave. ”

"There's no need to worry about this, we'll figure it out ourselves."

"Say, what's the condition?"

"I'll ask you again - what's your relationship with K? Before moving on, we think it's time to be honest between us. If we still hide our secrets like before, even if we continue to walk, it will be a dead end, and since the road ahead will definitely die, we might as well retreat. ”

Tenzin Kava's expression froze, and then he actually frowned and asked, "I should ask you this sentence, right?" ”

Tenzin Kawa said he did know "K", but that K found him through a man close to Tenzin Kawa and peddled him a secret about the Sherpas, which Tenzin Kawa bought for a million dollars.

The information provided by K is not very detailed, but the part of the secret that the Sherpas are likely to be descendants of the Tangut royal family is very consistent with the clues that Tenzin Kava has searched for over the years, and it is precisely because of this that Tenzin Kawa made up his mind and spent a lot of money to buy K's information.

K's information is divided into two parts, the first part is related to the westward migration of the royal family after the destruction of the Western Xia Kingdom.

This part of the royal descendants in the process of escaping from the pursuit of Meng Yuan to the west, once got the help of the mysterious "Somer Ancient Kingdom", which crossed the peerless Moat Himalayas - and behind the Somer Ancient Kingdom, there is a more mysterious "Kingdom of the Sky and Sea", it is said that in exchange for help, the Western Xia royal family had to contribute most of the royal treasures, gold and silver treasures are not important, the important thing is that the treasure includes a strange book, called "Golden Wheel Buddha Peak Great Virtue Blazing Glory Nine Yao Holy Star Secret Classic", It records the cultivation method of the mysterious Xingyao Fortune Technique, and as long as Tenzin Kawa can find the ruins of the Land of Heaven and Sea, it is possible to retrieve this royal secret book for his ancestors.

Speaking of this, Poche, Yale-in-China and other Sherpas all showed eager eyes, and even Jiajie, who had always been cold and silent, had a bit of heat in his eyes.

The other part is to explain that there will be two groups of people, that is, me and Lao Dao, Shen Tangzhi, Hyde, and Farado, and Farador, K said, we people know the inside story of the land of heaven and sea, and can help Tenzin Kava find the ruins.

Sure enough, all this information turned into online reality.

Tenzin Kawa had our list in hand, so as soon as we entered Nepal, we came into Tenzing Kava's sights, and after Nam Che Bazar "invited" us to the village of Bakomaha, Tenzin Kawa tested us and finally proved that we really know the "Land of Heaven and Sea".

And Farado and John directly gave the key necessary to enter the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Somol - the blood jade "Yin Netherworld Blood", and they also indicated the exact location of the entrance to the magical cave.

But the two Farrado said that they didn't know what K, that they were only explorers and archaeologists, and that it was not them who organized the archaeological team, but another person named Findlay.

Findlay bought an ancient map at an auction, and after researching it, he learned that the route in the ancient map turned out to be a route to a mysterious kingdom deep in the Himalayas, and as for my piece of blood jade, I also bought it at that auction.

Hearing the name "Findlay", the four of us all glanced at each other, and Hyde couldn't help but ask directly, whether the full name of Mr. Findlay was Alfie Bush. D. Findlay?

Farrado and John were very surprised and nodded their heads repeatedly. After communicating with them, Hyde confirmed their leader, Alfie Brown. Dr. D. Findlay's identity.

I once thought that another of K's pawns could be Alfie's pawn, which is said to have disappeared in East Asia. Dr. D. Findlay, but when he heard the news with his own ears, he was shocked.

Hyde was even more agitated and immediately inquired about Dr. Findlay's whereabouts, but the legislator sadly told Hyde that Dr. Findlay had been killed.

It turned out that after Findlay came to Nepal, he began to form an archaeological team, among them, Farado was a good friend of Dr. Findlay, and they studied the ancient map and blood jade together, and John was recruited to join the archaeological team in Nepal.

On their way to Dhaulagiri Peak, the team encountered an avalanche, and only two of the team, Farado and John, escaped alive, and even the ancient map was swallowed by the avalanche along with Dr. Findlay.

When they arrived at B.C. on Dhaulagiri Peak, they met Tenzin Kava and knew that he was a very powerful man, so they gave him a gift of blood jade, hoping that Tenzin Kava would help them find the legendary ancient country.

I instinctively felt that these two whites were very cunning, and it was possible that they were not telling the truth at all.

I asked for some details, including the seller of the auction, but Farrado explained that the auction would be protected**, and he didn't know who was selling the ancient map and the blood jade, only that the other party had left a message for the buyer, Dr. Findlay, that the blood jade was the key to the ancient kingdom.

Farrado concludes by emphasizing that he and John only want to see the mysterious ancient kingdom of Somol reappear for the sake of archaeology and adventure, and that they only want the reputation of brilliant explorers, and they have no extravagant hopes for the treasures within.

I looked at Tenzin Kava, who nodded slightly, indicating that all that Farrado was telling the truth.

Next, we explained our situation, including the theft of the Blood Jade, the acquisition of the scroll with the mysterious drawing, and the hint from K, but of course, I hid other secrets, including the entanglement between us and K, and the information about Alfie. Dr. D. Findlay's World Serpent Theory, Xu Xusheng's archaeological diary, etc.

Since we can hide key secrets, Tenzin Kava and Farador can too, but what I need is not their true honesty, but more information through these mixed truths.

At least, I already vaguely understand that the reason why K took such a big time to set up such a big trap and play with several groups of people and horses in applause is probably the treasure that the Western Xia royal family has dedicated to the country of the heavenly sea, or the secret treasure of the country of the heavenly sea itself, and there must be one of the two.

It's just that I still don't quite understand, why I have to be in this treasure hunt?

At that time, my blood jade had already been stolen by the fake Yu Wei, so there was no reason for this...... Is it the stria on my back?

Come to think of it, that's the only explanation for the time being.

Now that our talks have been successfully completed, the treasure hunt is about to start again - Tenzin Kawa is actually right, there is no way back, whether we want to or not, there is only one way forward.

I secretly decided that if I finally found a safe way down the mountain during the treasure hunt, I might be able to convince them to break away from Tenzin Kawa's group and take us down the mountain by saving Lobu and Yali under Shekou, which is why we had worked so hard to save Lobu.

The glacier in front of us is soaring into the sky, and the height may reach hundreds of meters, although the safest and most effective way is to reach the top of the glacier and then look for the location of the temple of Somol, but it is undoubtedly not wise to climb directly, the glacier in front of us is very broken, the structure is not solid, and it is too risky to climb hundreds of meters.

After a short discussion, we decided to make our way along the huge glacial crevasse in front of us, and if we could find a solid ice bridge to ascend, we would consider our plans to reach the top of the glacier.

According to Farrado's memory, the location of the Temple of Somol should be in the northwest direction, and the huge ice crack in front of us leads due north.

Despite the deviation, we could only follow the ice crack, only to see that the further we went, the narrower the crestic of the glacier, and the darkening of the sky, by the time the ice crack could only allow the two of us to walk side by side, the sky was very dark, and the hands on the watch were at six o'clock.

I said, "At this time of year, the sunset should be around eight o'clock, but now it's so dark, maybe we're in the shade of a mountain peak, and if the glacier is moving along the ridge, then we should be moving in the opposite direction." ”

The old knife was stunned by me: "You just say directly, where should we go?" What do you do with a bunch of irrelevant things? ”

I said in my heart that I didn't know these words, how could I speculate on the conclusion, but I didn't have time to entangle with him at the moment, so I said to him directly: "You understand the truth that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, right?" The shady side is of course to the west, and we're going to the east. ”

Tenzin Kava had some doubts: "Then it will be even more offset from the location of the temple......"

I said it doesn't matter, we walk under the glacier, not to mention the danger, the most important thing is that we can't get the direction freely, if we can get to the top of the glacier, how to plan the direction of action at that time, there will be a lot more choices. This is called sharpening the knife and not cutting wood.

After the discussion was settled, we turned on the flashlight, and after walking for long, we spotted an ice crack bifurcation facing east, and immediately turned around.

Happily, the ice rocks here are sloping upwards, and after a few minutes of walking, the altitude gauge shows that we have risen by more than ten meters above sea level - if the ice rock under our feet is an active glacier moving down from the peak, then we will most likely reach the mountain directly.

Just thinking about it, Jia Jie, who was walking in the front, suddenly exclaimed in a low voice (in order to prevent ice collapse, everyone is forbidden to speak loudly), and in the bright flashlight in his hand, a huge black shadow appeared undoubtedly, looking like the giant black ruba snake that once chased and killed us!
