Subsequently, Xinyi and I left from the Ice Cave, we didn't see the final outcome of Lao Zhao and Master Xinyi, and I don't think Lao Zhao wanted us to see it either, which should be the reason why he urged us to leave!

Xinyi and I returned the same way along the spiral stone steps, and picked up Wu Laohan, who was still waiting for us, halfway through, and the three of us continued to rush back together. Strange to say, Wu Laohan didn't ask us about what happened in the Ice Cave Land, I guess he should have known the result a long time ago, he didn't ask, and I didn't say anything.

Continuing to walk back, we soon came to the place where Team Cai, Sister Mo, and Liu Yuan died, Liu Yuan's body had been taken away by the monkeys before, and we took the bodies of Team Cai and Sister Mo to continue on the road.

After more than ten hours, the three of us with two corpses finally climbed the cliff and returned to the glacial canyon, and further on, we finally returned to the mountain pass.

In the corner of the mountain gate, we found a new grave, in front of the grave stood a stone tablet, which was engraved: the tomb of his beloved wife Liu Yuan, presumably left by a monkey, but we did not see a monkey in the vicinity, I don't know if he has left.

We plan to bury the bodies of Team Cai and Sister Mo nearby, so that the three of them will have a companion for each other on Huangquan Road, and they will not feel lonely.

I was in charge of digging the pit, Xinyi chose a few Peugeot stones to use as tomb plaques, and Wu Laohan sat on the side and muttered to himself, as if he was chanting the Buddha for them!

We just did it for a while, but I saw a person walk into the col from outside, I looked up and saw that it was a monkey, only to see him holding a bouquet of wild flowers in his hand, thinking it was for Liu Yuan!

I was very excited to see the monkey again, and immediately called him, the monkey just glanced at me, and nodded slightly, but did not speak, he went straight to Liu Yuan'er's grave, put down the wildflowers and walked out of the col again, it seems that Liu Yuan's death is still counted on my head after all!

I was a little frustrated, and Xinyi shook her head at me on the side: "Don't be discouraged, I'll explain to you later, the monkey will believe you, otherwise he would have scolded you again just now!" ”

Xinyi's comfort made me very useful, compared to the previous in the tomb, the monkey's attitude towards me just now has eased a lot, I plan to wait for the burial of Team Cai and Sister Mo, and then go and talk to the monkey.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly saw the monkey walk in from the outside again, and he was striding towards us with a Luoyang shovel in his hand! Suddenly, I secretly said in my heart that it was not good, did he really want to fight with me?

The monkey stepped forward, looked at me again and scolded: "Don't work quickly, we have to send Team Cai and Sister Mo to the ground for peace!" With that, he lifted the shovel and helped me dig up the soil.

Next, we buried Team Cai and Sister Mo with the monkey, about them, I can't tell the monkey the truth, I can't tell him that I was disturbed by the shadow and killed by mistake, this involves the secret of the ghost mirror, before leaving, Lao Zhao told me, absolutely not to tell anyone.

Xinyi had already thought of an explanation for me, she said that everything was done by his master's people, and said that Lao Zhao had died underground with her master in order to cover us out of the mountain.

When the monkey heard that Lao Zhao was dead, he was immediately sad, and he had no time to pay attention to Xinyi's words for a while.

……

After everything was done, we discussed the next arrangements, the monkey said that he would stay in Changbai Mountain forever, and he would accompany Liu Yuan until he died, and Wu Laohan said that he was old and wanted to be a companion with the monkey, so he simply stayed in Changbai Mountain and did not return to Kunlun Mountain. Xinyi and I didn't make up our minds for a while, so we built a shack in the col as a habitat, and we planned to stay in Changbai Mountain for a few days for the time being.

……

We have been in Changbai Mountain for a few days, on this day, Xinyi and I plan to say goodbye to the monkey and Wu Laohan, we plan to go to Beijing first, to go to the Institute of Ancient Chinese Culture, History and Archaeology, after all, Team Cai and Liu Yuan are both staff members of the Institute of Archaeology, and someone should always report their deaths, and I myself have already been a member of the Institute of Archaeology, so this trip is even more necessary. As for what she plans to do in the future, Xinyi may still be her nurse, and I may also stay in the archaeological institute and become a real archaeological researcher.

Before leaving, I went up the mountain to hunt a few pheasants and hares, Xinyi said that before leaving, I had to make a delicious meal for the monkey and Wu Laohan, and with most of the remaining half of the pot of sorghum wine in Wu Laohan's wine pot, so there was wine and meat as a parting feast, which was very suitable!

Help Xinyi wash the vegetables and chop the meat, and then there will be nothing for me, parting is imminent, I am a little uneasy in my heart, and I plan to talk to the monkey!

Since Liu Yuan's death, the monkey began to become sentimental, and he got along in the past few days, I found that he talked a lot less than before, and there was no hippie smile in the past, he always liked to stay alone on a cliff in the south of the col, the cliff was bare, only on the edge of the cliff grew a cedar more than ten meters high, the monkey likes to sit under the cedar in a quiet daze, I know that he has not completely come out of the shadow of Liu Yuan's death, sometimes I even worry that he will jump off the cliff and die!

I turned the hill and saw the monkey sitting under the cedar on the cliff in the distance, and I would not have bothered him as usual, but today we are about to part, and in order to remove a hidden danger in my heart, I must go to him!
