Chapter 312: Arriving at Death Valley
This is the first time in my life that I have gone deep into the hinterland of the Kunlun Mountains, and the sunlight on the plateau has been making people dizzy, and the sky is so blue that it seems to be dripping water.
We were a group of four people, walking in this desert with difficulty, the road constantly blew gusts of wind, one moment big, one time small, one cloudy, one moment sunny, the natural environment was extremely bad, which made us rush the speed can never be raised.
After walking for about two or three hours, the male Taoist priest named Xiao Ran, who had been following Qiu Shasha, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed in front of us and said:
"The front is concave, the west mountain is flat, the recess is the northwest screen block, the complex folds and the south, winds around this mountain, although there is the shape of the Tibetan wind, but there is no potential of the Tibetan wind, the wind condenses and the air is knotted. Wind insects, so the earliest traditional Chinese character 'wind' character, from a worm. When the wind meets the mountain, termites are born. This place is in the Qingwushu or "Book of Changes", when it is a fierce place for the mountain wind, it is unlucky. ”
Hearing that Xiao Ran said such a series of words, I didn't understand a single word, but in the end, the word "unlucky" came into my ears.
The fat man also walked a few steps quickly at this time, stepped forward and asked:
"I said this Dao brother, what do you mean by that bunch just now? I didn't even understand that. ”
Xiao Ran glanced back at the fat man and said lightly to him:
"I mean, not far ahead, the valley of death."
"You just have to say that, you have to say such a big thing that you don't understand, it's too winding." The fat man said that while the wind was light now, he quickly took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a hard puff.
After Qiu Shasha heard Xiao Ran's words, she immediately took out the map she had been carrying, and after gesturing with her hand for a long time, she slightly moved the direction of progress and hurried towards the front again.
This road is very desolate, there is no human population, the yellow and yellow sparse grass is scattered on the Gobi, I raised my head and looked at the sky, my eyes are full of blue, the dry soil and wild grass lining the ground are a little dazzling, and the brown mountains in the distance look strange and strange, so that people dare not look at much.
Because this road is not easy to walk, there is a lot of weight on several of us, and the nearby gusts of wind blow up with a stream of yellow sand from time to time, so we have not been able to raise the speed of several walks.
Continuing to walk forward for about a mile, there were some wooden stakes and stones protruding from the ground in the desert in front of them, most of which had been corrupted, one after another, and there was no end in sight.
"I mean, everyone, we're at the mouth of this valley of death now?" The fat man asked, looking at the stakes and stones on the ground.
Qiu Shasha nodded:
"It shouldn't be far away, past these reminder stakes and stones, and there is ahead." After she finished speaking, the first one raised her leg and continued to walk forward.
The fat man and I were in the back, and we hurriedly followed.
After walking through this desolate area, there was a downhill in front of us, and we walked down this downhill for about half an hour, and we were not far from a valley in front of us that was high on both sides and hollowed in the middle.
Could it be that there is a valley of death where the nearby villagers are afraid and claim that as long as there are living people entering, they will never be able to get out?
I just thought of this, the fat man next to me, stretched out his hand and pulled my arm, took out the mask, and opened his mouth to ask me:
"I said, brother, that somewhat gloomy valley in front of you is the valley of death, right?"
"I can't be wrong." I replied.
The fat man nodded, panting, and sweating all over his face and said to me:
"But it's finally here, I can't stand it anymore, I can't breathe, my head is dizzy, I can't resist it."
Hearing the fat man say this, I immediately knew that he was suffering from altitude sickness, so I hurriedly walked over and asked Qiu Shasha for some "plateau kang" for the fat man to eat.
After taking medicine, the fat man got better, but even so, Qiu Shasha still stopped, rested in place for a while, and then continued to hurry.
Walking forward, a few hundred meters away, is the entrance of the valley of death, and when our group walked to the entrance of the valley of death, I first stopped my body, brought out my yang energy, gathered in my eyes, and carefully observed, although the valley looked a little bleak and gloomy, but there was no yin at all.
Seeing this, I was a little relieved, so I followed the team.
Just when a few of us were about to enter the valley, Qiu Shasha, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, turned around and beckoned everyone to rest in place, eat something, and then took it off the backpack she was carrying and put it on the ground, after opening it, she took out an automatic rifle directly from it, held it in her hand, looked at me and the fat man and asked:
"Which of you two will use this?"
When the fat man saw the gun, it was not much different from seeing a beautiful chicken leg, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said:
"I ...... I will. ”
After Qiu Shasha heard this, she directly threw the automatic rifle in her hand towards the fat man.
"Then, for self-defense, there must be no shortage of man-eating beasts in the valley." After finishing speaking, she then took out the brush she had used before, held it in her hand, put on her backpack, and walked into the valley in front of her.
Looking at the automatic rifle in the fat man's hand, I was a little surprised, what means did Qiu Shasha use to haul the backpack containing the rifle in the air?
Forget it, don't ask such sensitive questions.
As we walked into the valley step by step, an indescribable but strong aura of death suddenly filled my whole body, making my brain in a trance, and after taking a few steps towards it in a daze, I was relieved, and then, a very ominous premonition came to my heart!
He's a rabbit with watermelon! What was going on just now?! This valley is really evil!
"Fatty? Fatso? I screamed twice in succession, but the fat man who had been following me did not answer, and I immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned my head to look at him.
I found that the fat man at this moment was similar to the one I had when I first entered the valley of death, and when I saw him like this now, I slapped him in the face!
"Fatty!"
"Ah~!! What's wrong? The fat man was slapped and reacted immediately, turned his head to look at me and asked.
"This valley of death is too weird, be careful, you don't know where your soul has gone just now." I looked at the fat man and said.
As soon as I finished speaking, Qiu Shasha turned her head to look at me and the fat man and said:
"Do you have yang charms on you? If so, stick it now to avoid any further accidents. ”
After hearing Qiu Shasha's words, I hurriedly groped into my backpack, took out two chapters of yang talismans, handed one to the fat man, and pasted one myself.
After attaching the yang talisman, I walked towards the valley and began to look around, and found that in the valley, the soil under my feet was dark brown, all the plants in the valley had died, there was no life, and the ground under my feet was a pile of dry bones of animals or people from time to time, and the whole scene looked like the shooting scene of those horror movies.
Even in broad daylight, I was horrified and sweated in a cold sweat.
But even so, Qiu Shasha, who had been leading the way in front, did not reduce the speed of the journey, and after entering this valley, she continued to move forward for a small half a day, and it was still very calm in this valley of death, and nothing happened......
Not even the sound of the wind could be heard.
This calmness made me feel uncomfortable and uneasy, just like the calm before a storm......
As I walked deeper into the valley of death, I noticed that a faint mist slowly began to rise around me, and as we went deeper, more and more......
"It's fucking weird, what's the fog in broad daylight?!" When the fat man saw this mist, he cursed.
"What do you see that?" At this time, the fat man put down the binoculars in his hand and shouted to us by pointing in a direction in front of us.
After hearing the fat man's words, several of us immediately looked in the direction of his fingers, and in the blur, I seemed to see the shadow of a person looming in front of me......
Seeing this, I hurriedly took the telescope in the fat man's hand and looked in the direction before, but I don't know if it was because it was too far away, or because it was blocked by fog, or for some other reason, even if I used the telescope, I still couldn't see what the figure was.
