Section 75 Night in the Valley of Lost Souls
My companion and I were trapped in the Valley of the Lost Soul again, unable to find the entrance we had come from.
After dark, we had to hide in the cave, and I pinned my hope on the hope that after dawn, I planned to return to the mountain village through the Eagle Sorrow Stream to find Teacher Shangguan.
But Dong Yanping, they asked for me to come with me.
"You can't leave us behind, or you won't want to leave!" Salvation and indignation.
I hesitated, and Dong Yanping asked me, "Why don't you want to take us to see Teacher Shangguan?" Could it be that something is hiding from everyone? ”
Sui Jiankai also cast a questioning look at me, continued to fiddle with a walkie-talkie in his hand, and then began to shout: "Is there anyone?" Please answer when you receive it! ”
He kept repeating, and a screeching noise came from the speaker of the walkie-talkie.
I took his walkie-talkie, turned off the knob, and explained, "It's not that I have something to hide from everyone, but that I have my own troubles!" ”
"What do you have to worry about, tell me and listen to it!" Saved brandished a machete at me.
I closed my eyes and quickly figured out in my head how to deal with their doubts.
"Xiaolan, the rash on your neck has become hard, how do you feel now?" Dong Yanping deliberately diverted the topic, I opened my eyes, and said slowly: "You don't know, those kidnappers are ruthless, my neck is due to them, in order to prevent me from escaping and calling the police, they injected slow-moving poison into my body, if you also go with me, the result will be the same as me!" ”
Everyone was stunned by my lie, and Dong Yanping immediately said to me: "Then why didn't Ke Ke find it when he examined you?" Also, how could we be trapped here and not even be able to get out of the Valley of Ecstasy? ”
I hurriedly comforted them: "Don't worry, everyone, I may have misremembered the direction too, let's turn around and go back, leave marks along the way, this time we will definitely be able to get out of the Valley of the Lost Soul!" ”
Everyone agreed with my opinion, Sui Jiankai put on his bag, was rescued and carried a water bladder, I led the way in front, and Dong Yanping broke behind.
After each stretch of the road, Sui Jiankai and Meng Salvation carved their respective names on the rock walls on both sides of the canyon with their swords.
The mud on the floor of the valley has been dried and the white bones of the animals remain in it, and a cold wind blows, and the canyon makes a "whining" sound.
When it was dark, we camped on the spot, Dong Yanping opened her backpack and took out the tent, and Sui Jiankai took out dry food and distributed it to everyone.
After eating and drinking, the Salvation protested: "I want to sleep in a tent, it's really cold outside!" ”
As soon as I wanted to refuse, he said: "You and Xiao Dong are both wearing brand-name jackets, windproof and warm and breathable, look at what our brothers are wearing!" ”
Sui Jiankai wanted to dissuade him, but Dong Yanping said to me: "We sleep outside, you two sleep inside the tent!" ”
Meng Shengfu proudly took his backpack and got into the tent, and Dong Yanping asked Sui Jiankai to enter as well.
I took out the walkie-talkie, put my bag on my back, and said to Dong Yanping: "I can't sleep, let's sit down and talk." She agreed, and we sat against the rock wall.
There was no dry firewood in the canyon, and there was no way to make a fire, only a wolf-eye flashlight, which I borrowed from Teacher Shangguan.
Dong Yanping asked me about Murong Ying and Teacher Shangguan, I went over perfunctorily, and then asked, "Do you have any relatives at home?" ”
She replied, "I also have an older brother, and after a while, I'll take you to meet them!" ”
After chatting with her for a while, I said, "I want to go to the convenience, you stay here and wait for me!" ”
But she said, "I'll go with you, and we'll take care of each other!" ”
The two of us walked along the canyon with flashlights, and after walking for about ten minutes, Dong Yanping said: "It's okay, you left and I right, you come first, I'll be on guard for you!" ”
I turned my back to the rock wall and started to urinate, and Dong Yanping walked to the other side of the canyon and guarded me.
After convenience, I said to her, "I'm fine, you can start!" ”
She turned off the flashlight and I turned on the intercom button and started adjusting the channel.
There was a screeching noise coming from inside the walkie-talkie, I continued to adjust the channel, in the 7 channel, the noise was a little less, I held the walkie-talkie high above my head, and there was a slight radio wave sound from inside.
I hurriedly brought the walkie-talkie close to my ear, and a low male voice came from inside, which was somewhat familiar.
"Don't panic, I'll guide you out of the dark canyon."
On the other side, Dong Yanping asked me: "Xiaolan, I'm fine!" ”
I hurriedly turned off the walkie-talkie, Dong Yanping walked towards me with a flashlight and asked, "Have you received the signal?" ”
"No, the electromagnetic waves in this canyon are very chaotic, we will go back quickly!"
The two of us returned to the tent, Sui Jiankai and Meng Desheng were urinating on the rock wall, Dong Yanping hurriedly covered her eyes, and I said to the two: "Why are you two so casual, don't forget that there are ladies here!" ”
Meng was saved and responded: "There is no bathroom here, we can only solve it on the spot, where have you two gone?" ”
Dong Yanping was speechless, I said: "It's convenient to go, even if there is no bathroom here, it can't be solved outside the tent, we can't stay here, Yanping, let's walk to the back to avoid the smell." ”
She answered, and I took her hand and walked on, finding a sheltered place to sit down.
Dong Yanping fastened the straps of her hood, put on a mask and sunglasses and pillowed my thighs and began to fall asleep, while I leaned against the rock wall and closed my eyes.
Zha Wang's voice sounded in my ears: "Xiaolan, I returned from the Holy Snow Mountain with the village chief, Murong She entered the closed town, she was waiting for you in the town, but Murong She didn't want to look for the crystal skull with you, so she could only see you once, and then you took your companions and started looking for the crystal skull!" ”
I hurriedly said, "Zha Wang, I also brought my companions with me, including Dong Yanping, but I didn't take her to your village." ”
After hearing this, Zha Wang hurriedly said to me: "I will arrange for you to meet with Murong in the town, but I want to discuss it with the village chief, you wait for my reply!" ”
He soon didn't respond, and I also fell into thinking, how to explain to her when I see Murong tomorrow?
Towards dawn, I was asleep when I was awakened by the sound of Zawang.
"Xiaolan, I asked the village chief and I about Murong's meaning, and she agreed to ask you and Dong Yanping to be together, we hope that Murong can act with you, but she doesn't want to take risks with you."
I immediately asked Zha Wang: "Then Xiao Dong and I will lead people to find the whereabouts of the crystal skull, but it is very difficult to find the operation, first of all, there are no detailed coordinates, and secondly, funds!" ”
Zawang smiled bitterly and responded: "If we know the exact coordinates of the crystal skull, we can find it ourselves, the funding problem is easy to solve, how much did I sell for that bag of gold sand I gave you last time?" ”
"Hundreds of thousands, but it's not enough at all, I'm already recruiting now, and it costs a lot!"
"I'll give you another bag, but you have to start a search, we're running out of time," he said. ”
