Chapter 169: The Mountain That Suddenly Appeared
This space is formed by the loosening of the surrounding soil structure when the ants drag the caterpillars. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At the end of the space was a gap, and they crawled and crawled outside, and saw the light again, and looked around, and saw that the corpse of the insect was lying where it had just landed, constantly being gnawed by some ants surrounding him.
According to the general understanding, ants will drag animals to their nests, why do they stay here and do not move? Maybe it's because they've dragged it halfway through and found that the insect is so big that if they drag it back to the nest, it will take a lot of energy, so it's better to just throw it here and solve it on the spot.
After a short time, they saw that the worm had been eaten and only a shell was left, and there was no flesh in it, only a layer of skin wilted there, and the ants walked away into the distance.
They breathed a sigh of relief and began to climb to a higher place, trying to find a higher position, and then go to find the whereabouts of Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master.
After only one glance, Jin Yang found that there seemed to be a mountain in front of him, and he felt a little strange in his heart, how could there be a mountain here? This is underground, just now I crossed the Nai He Bridge, and after a careful look at the surroundings, there are no mountains. Could it be that the light here is too dim to be seen just now?
Jin Mantang looked for something on the ground and said to Jin Yang, "Look at some footprints on this stone. ”
Jin Yang leaned over and saw that there were indeed two lines of footprints, which should be Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master, who else could there be here besides their footprints?
The direction of the footprints is along the other side of the mountain, did they go to the mountain?
The two walked towards that side, Jin Yang had never walked such a difficult road, these stones were round and round, each one was so tall, and there were many gaps in the middle, which were easy to slip, and it took a lot of effort to cross the round stones, and finally reached the front of the mountain.
The mountain looks majestic, but the shape is very irregular, a bit like a person. It straddled there, high on one side and low on the other, Jin Yang looked up, the high place was hundreds of meters high, very steep, and stopped them.
You can't see Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master around, could it be that they went up there? When they looked up, there was a forest on the top of the mountain, and every tree was bare, without branches, but it was pitch black, which they did not expect.
The rest of the place was okay, bare, Jin Yang said to Jin Mantang: "I haven't drunk water for a long time, could it be that they went to the woods to find water to drink?" ”
Jin Mantang thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's very likely, they may be looking for us, maybe they also have the same idea as us, thinking that we went to the woods, so they also went." ”
Jin Mantang said this, which strengthened Jin Yang's thoughts, and other than that, there was no other possibility. However, the summit is very high and it is impossible to go up from this place.
It was decided to go to the lower end, and then go from the lower end to this mountain forest. After walking a few hundred steps, Jin Mantang suddenly squatted down, beckoned to Jin Yang, and said, "Come and take a look, I found some footprints again." ”
Jin Yang looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, there were some messy footprints, and after careful identification, Jin Yang found that one of the footprints was Tong Xiangyu's, it seems that their idea is not wrong, Tong Xiangyu and they did go up the mountain.
Jin Yang and Jin Mantang suddenly became more motivated, and the top priority was to find them, especially the ghost master, only he knew the direction of the gourd.
Jin Yang and Jin Mantang climbed a lot of stones, and finally came to the lowest end, Jin Yang probably made a gesture, this side is about twenty or thirty meters high. Jin Mantang took out a rope from his backpack, threw it upward, hooked a protruding thing, climbed upward, and after a long time, finally climbed to the mountain.
The mountain is steep, Jin Yang and Jin Mantang climbed very hard, but fortunately, when they saw the footprints of Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master, they had the motivation and finally climbed up.
The mountain was very large, Jin Yang and Jin Mantang sat on it, the wind was obviously much stronger, and a gust of wind blew, and they suddenly felt very happy. Looking around, it was empty, and the sky above them was far away.
Jin Yang asked Jin Mantang if he wanted to get something to eat first, Jin Mantang said yes, took out some dry food to eat, and then looked around, it was an endless stone, Jin Mantang ate a mouthful of dry food, spit on the ground, Jin Yang asked Jin Mantang: "This dry food is not to your liking?" ”
Jin Mantang said: "If you look around, there are all stones, not even a few trees and blades of grass, and there seems to be no water around, if you continue like this, you will die of thirst here, and these dry foods will only get thirstier and thirstier." ”
It's like a desert, or rather a Gobi Desert, and maybe it's even worse. If they were in the desert or the Gobi Desert, they would still have the opportunity to walk forward, but in this place, it was very difficult to walk, and they were all rocks that were one person high, densely packed, and if they drove forward for a certain distance, they would not die of thirst, and sooner or later they would be exhausted to death.
Fortunately, the wind was so strong that they were so shaky that they were almost blown down the mountain.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Jin Mantang repacked the uneaten dry food, and said to Jin Yang: "Let's get out of here quickly." ”
Jin Yang nodded, looked up at them in front of them, the mountains there were even taller, fortunately, the distance was not very far, although there were some detours in the middle, but it was much more comfortable than they were walking just now, at least they didn't encounter a big and abrupt time, and after walking for a short time, they came to the woods.
It was black, and Jin Yang always felt a little strange inside, and it was an indescribable feeling. Each trunk is bare, without branches and leaves, all are tall, more than ten meters high, some are very neat, some are crooked, scattered on one side, some lying horizontally on the ground.
Each tree was densely packed, and they could only walk in and out of the middle of the forest, blocking their view, and at a glance, the situation ahead was not very clear, and the two of them shoveled aside the poles in front of them with short knives as they walked. These trees have a smooth surface that is difficult to shovel and has a sense of toughness.
They walked forward for a long time, and saw two figures in front of them, Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master. They walked forward quickly and came to Tong Xiangyu and the ghost master. They turned their backs to Jin Yang, and when they heard the footsteps, they turned their heads, the expression on the ghost lord's face was very surprised, Tong Xiangyu saw them, she was very happy and surprised, and asked them how they found here?
Jin Yang said: "You didn't say hello when you came, causing us to come all the way here, and we went through a lot of hard work." ”
