Chapter 4: The Sinkhole

Escaping the rest of the crowd, the monkey and I picked up our bags and plunged headlong into the depths of the canyon. The weather looked fine this morning, but the dew on the grass and branches had not yet receded, and our trouser legs were inevitably wet. The temperature in the mountains is very low, and it should be less than eight degrees Celsius according to the current physical sensation.

The monkey and I used a dagger to cut a branch as a crutch, and although there was no water in the valley, the rocky cliffs were all damp, and there was a layer of green moss everywhere, which was very difficult to walk, and if you didn't get it, you might fall at any time.

The cliffs on both sides of the valley reach into the sky, and the silvery sky is like a long river, winding along the mountains. Looking back, you can see the commanding height of the entire mountain range, which is the main peak of Wolf Mountain - Hohebashige! Compared to the surrounding mountains, it looks even taller!

It is impossible for Uncle Li's team to climb the top of Hohbashige Mountain in one day today, and Uncle Li must have understood this, so he asked the travelers to buy enough food and water for a day, so that when the ammunition is exhausted, it is the time to return, and his business is over.

The further along the valley we went, the more difficult the road became, the riverbed was gradually rising, and there were shrubs more than a meter high, and sometimes a stone staircase was enough for us to climb for an hour. Hohbashig has long been left behind by us.

The monkey was already so tired that he couldn't help but start complaining to me: "I said Lao Yang, do you have a fucking score in your heart, when will we just go forward like this!" ”

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and replied, "Don't worry, I can't be wrong, I have done my homework before coming here, and I will move forward bravely along the valley, and victory is not far ahead!" ”

"Holy!" The monkey took a breath and said: "Don't be sloppy with me, there is no road in this valley, I should have followed the team of donkey friends if I knew it, this mountain range is thousands of kilometers long, do we have to go to death!" ”

"Whew!" I rolled my eyes at the monkey: "My name of Captain Jin was not sealed by me, it was given by friends in the rivers and lakes, and I don't have the ability to find dragons and holes, how can I come out and mix!" ”

When the monkey heard this, he waved his hand at me angrily: "You can pull it down!" I don't know how many pounds and taels you have? Now that there are no outsiders between the two of us, don't pretend to be forced in front of me! ”

The monkey's words have aroused my enthusiasm, he really underestimated me, this year into so many big fights, I have accumulated some experience, not to mention that I have the time to read so many old books to find the dragon point, now do not show off with the monkey, it is really difficult to convince him, although there are two of us, but no matter what, it can not shake the spirit of the advancing army, so I handed him the kettle, let him sit down and listen to me first.

I took a sip of water and began to speak: "According to the dragon vein trend of Jiaolong going to sea, the head arrives at the Loulan site, the neck crosses the Kunlun peaks, the belly lies on the bus Hengling, the tail stirs the South China Sea Cloud Island, the front paw has the potential to tear apart the Inner Mongolia Pingchuan, and the hind paw has the meaning of stepping on the Changbai ice!" We are now deep in the Inner Mongolia Wolf Mountain, this vast Yinshan Mountain Range is like the front paws of the dragon out of the sea, this valley is like the tendons of the dragon's claws, and the Wolf Mountain is located in the westernmost part of the entire Yinshan Mountain Range, the so-called dragon is looking for gold to see the winding mountain, a heavy entanglement is a heavy pass, if there is eight points of danger in closing the door, there is no yin and yang gossip, so we can only reach the hinterland of the dragon's claw all the way to the east! ”

The monkey didn't blink for a long time, he scratched his head and asked, "But our trip is to find the sinkhole where the three bones were found, and now that the valley is getting higher and higher, I don't think it is likely to be!" ”

I shook my head and continued: "No, the bottom of the mountains and rivers in the Wolf Mountain area is crisscrossed, don't look at us now in the valley, maybe a basin bottom will suddenly appear in front of us, the terrain here is complicated, don't mess up the direction." ”

The monkey saw that I was talking in a few words, and he was hesitating whether to believe me, in fact, I was still more confident in my own judgment, after all, the sunspot had also instructed me in some methods of finding dragon points, and now I and the monkey are going into battle, and these methods have become the signposts for us to continue to move forward!

I didn't wait for him to come to his senses, and rushed to the front first: "Okay, let's open the way for me, the little wolf master who touches the golden school!" Just follow me. The monkey was still a little wavering in his heart, but when he saw that I was full of confidence, he said nothing more.

Over the course of the next day, we climbed countless stone steps, the valley bed rose and fell, and the cliffs on both sides continued to stretch forward, not to mention the monkeys, even I really didn't want to go any further, and now my legs trembled, and I didn't feel like I was my own!

When it was almost dark, we climbed a stone staircase seven or eight meters high again, the riverbed above the stone steps sloped gently, and the top of it was not visible, our last trace of strength has been exhausted by the stone steps, and we really don't have the energy to climb to the top of the riverbed again, today's itinerary is probably so much, anyway, we have to burn the fire to eat first, and then go over the mountains and mountains will be tomorrow's thing.

The monkey and I put down our luggage and were about to make a fire, when suddenly a burst of smoke drifted from somewhere, I smelled the smell of firewood burning, and immediately sank in my heart, it should not be a fire around the neighborhood, but the temperature in the mountains will not exceed 10 degrees, it is unlikely!

The monkey suddenly waved at me: "Look, this smoke is coming up from the riverbed!" ”

I looked up, and there was indeed intermittent smoke drifting from the top of the riverbed, and suddenly my whole body was refreshed, and I picked up my luggage and rushed to the top of the riverbed.

When I came to the top of the riverbed, the scene in front of me immediately made me and the monkey dumbfounded! Twenty or thirty meters down the riverbed, there was a huge pit the size of a football field, the four walls of the pit were steep, and the bottom of the pit was not visible, and it was surrounded by five mountains, leaving only a hole in the riverbed here, and the smoke was rising from the bottom of the huge pit!

"Holy, this is the sinkhole? It's fucking big! The monkey couldn't help but sigh, although I had been mentally prepared, but now that I really saw it with my own eyes, it was difficult to suppress the shock in my heart.

I calmed down a little and asked the monkey, "Why is there smoke coming up from the bottom of the pit, go down and see!" ”

I beckoned the monkey and rushed down to the edge of the pit, only to see a few ropes tied to the trunk of the tree leading down the cliff, only to realize that there was someone at the bottom of the pit! I saw seven or eight tents scattered at the bottom of the pit, and there were still people walking outside the tents from time to time, and there was a person on the west side who was cooking a fire and washing pots, it seemed that he was ready to cook!

Seeing such a scene at the bottom of the pit, I immediately reacted, could it be that the previous archaeological team has not left, or the Cai team has already gone down?
