Chapter 16: Fixed-point
It will take us more than half a while to reach the halfway point of the mountain, but it will be dark this day, and we will not be able to venture forward in this dark situation, although we have a lamp in our hands, but it is really unrealistic to find a grave this night.

We simply rested in the open air for one night, found some dry firewood to make a fire, cooked some vegetable soup and drank it before getting ready to sleep, and discussed taking turns on duty to simply sleep here for one night.
We also brought a lot of tools, everything we need for mountain climbing, things like sleeping bags are necessary to carry, which is much more cost-effective than bringing a tent, no need to build, get into it and go to sleep.
This sleeping bag is all in the hiking bag, like this kind of slightly cold night, wrapped in the sleeping bag, as if sleeping in the bed, basically you can't feel how cold it is outside, just sleep peacefully and recuperate.
In the meantime, one of us was on duty, and nothing special happened in the middle, except for a few thunderclaps from time to time at the bottom of the valley of death, and a few low roars of wild beasts not far away, it was considered stable, Abu also learned a lesson this time, and he didn't fall asleep halfway, he woke me up after his shift, and I took his shift.
Anyway, I've never been on duty in this wilderness, especially in this kind of eerie and terrifying place, this valley of death is simply called the heavens and the earth, except for a few lightning strikes, there are some strange beasts, either eating you or eating you, there is no room for negotiation.
I looked at the fire burning in front of me, my stomach was already a little hungry, I ate some biscuits and continued to look around, at this time every gust of wind blew my scalp numb, even sitting by the fire my legs trembled.
And the snow on the top of this mountain is still glowing gray and dark in the night, which looks extremely mysterious, and I also observe the sleepy dragon beach at the bottom of the mountain from time to time, and the ghost knows whether the ghost king blind newt is really as the master said, at most once a day, so it is better to be careful, and it is already dawn before you know it.
We slept better, woke up very early the next day, the sleeping bag was already covered with dew, if this person didn't have any sleeping tools, lying on this bare rock and sleeping for a night, it was really hard to say what kind of wind and cold or something was infected, thanks to this pond fire and sleeping bag, we could have the spirit to continue the next day's process.
The second uncle looked at the top of the mountain and said, "I don't know where to put this pot from?" ā
Xiao Ye stood on the boulder, glanced up a few times, and replied, "I know how to support it." ā
"So, sir, do you remember the location of the tomb?" I was both excited and puzzled.
The young master nodded and replied: "I remember the location, but I don't remember the specific." As he spoke, the young master pointed to a place not far above the mountainside, "It should be there." ā
"That's good, if there is really a group of tombs in this mountain, maybe the other tombs should be the same as the tomb that Grandpa Ji and Xiao Ye entered, then as long as we find the previous tomb, the other tombs will be easy to say, and the map drawn by the long master is not wrong." The second uncle continued.
"Then why are you still standing? I can't wait. Abu looked at me and said excitedly, saying that Abu's virtue has not changed at all, and when he heard that there was a tomb, he was so excited.
"The soil on this mountain is not easy to take, it seems that it will have to be shoveled with a whirlwind." My father looked at the stones on the mountain, a little helpless, and said, "It seems that the scale of this tomb is not small, if this mountain is really a group of tombs, it will be a little difficult to get." ā
"Whatever, I can eat the tomb no matter how big it is." Abu leaned his body, confident and confident, but he seemed very anxious, threw his backpack on his back, and said loudly: "Let's go, let's go, you can't do anything big if you grind." ā
When we saw Abu like this, we were used to it for a long time, so we could only shake our heads helplessly, put on our backpacks, and walked towards the position pointed by the master, and there was no road in this mountain, so we could only use these bare stones to climb up step by step, the closer to the snow the higher it went, the colder it became.
During my mountain climbing, I asked my father, "What is the use of this whirlwind shovel?" Why would you say you're going to use a whirlwind? ā
My dad said a little breathlessly: "This whirlwind shovel is connected to the copper rod, the stick is hollow, it is packed with organic brackets, there are nine pure steel wave blades, there is a special slot lock spring in front of the copper stick, as long as the steel blade is inserted in, it will be tightly fixed by the lock spring, and a rocker can be used behind the copper rod, this environment, there is this whirlwind shovel is better to use, and we can control the size of the diameter of the hole, the whirlwind shovel can be stretched and retracted, and it is much more convenient to use. ā
"I see." It dawned on me.
"Don't say it, hurry up and climb, you see that the master is almost here, pay attention to your step, don't roll down." My dad glanced at Abu and his master's position, they were far ahead of us, and when my dad reminded me, he handed me a hiking shovel so that I could hold on firmer.
It didn't take long for them to reach the designated position, and we quickly followed, and there was already a lot of snow in this position, and we were about to reach the top of the mountain at the top of the mountain, and the position where we were was happened to be the position of the dragon-shaped pattern.
"Let's boil! Bring the cyclone shovel. The second uncle said lightly and asked Abu to take out the whirlwind shovel.
I saw Abu stretch out the whirlwind shovel and fix it on the soil in front of us, rotate the nine steel blades, and after a while, they hit down more than a meter deep, in a circle, but the soil brought up here did not seem to be unusual.
Abu asked anxiously, "Is it in the wrong place?" ā
The second uncle hurriedly said again: "Don't be busy, let's look down." Abu continued to fight, and he didn't know how deep the fight would go.
I saw that the soil below was beginning to turn a little yellow, and I hurriedly exclaimed, "This soil has changed." ā
At this time, Abu was already sweating profusely, where did he remember to distinguish the color of the soil, the young master looked at it and said, "It's time." ā
It seems that the master is indeed familiar with this method of identifying the tomb, and all the characteristics that the tomb soil should have can be seen at a glance from him, and the master and my grandfather came here thirty years ago, which is even easier for the master to judge.
"Master, you mean we found the tomb?" I asked.
"Yes!" The master replied lightly.
"Then don't rub it off, come, Ji Ming, you come and dig it up." At this time, Abu looked at me and said, this Abu is really, he thinks it is inappropriate to ask my father and second uncle to go down to dig, and he actually started my idea.
But I saw that Abu was also a little tired, so I went down and replaced him, this digging really cost me my life, and I was already tired after a few minutes of digging.
Abu looked into the cave at this time, and said with a smile: "Forget it, my little master, let's let Brother Bu dig it with me." With that, he pulled me up again and jumped down on my own, and it seemed that only people like Abu could do this kind of work.
"Huh? Why is this soil getting wetter and wetter? Abu dug for a few more minutes and said in surprise.
I saw that the young master stood up, jumped into the hole, stuck his finger into the soil, and said, "Keep digging, and you will see the tomb in less than ten minutes." ā
