"Okay, it's not a way to keep walking like this, stop and rest first." The little master also immediately agreed.

At this time, I had the same thought in my heart, and after walking for more than three hours, I didn't see the end or the exit, which was unreasonable, except for a few small forks in the road that I occasionally encountered, the river course was almost unchanged, and it was because of this that we had the illusion that we couldn't distinguish between before and after.

We stopped, snuggled by the river and ate dry food, "Little master, what should we do next?" I asked.

"We're almost at the end, and of course we're moving on." The little master replied.

"Hey, how do you know so clearly?" Lin Zi asked in surprise.

The little master pointed to the ground and said, "Actually, this river is a bit sloping downward, I don't know if you have found it." ”

"What? Tilt downward. As soon as he said this, Lin Zi suddenly realized, "You mean, this river channel is a huge slope?" The length of the slope is the Ba River, which has dried up? ”

The little master nodded, with a solemn look on his face, and then he said to us: "I just found out about this, you can see ......" As he spoke, the little master poured half a kettle of water on the ground.

Probably because the ground had been dry for so long, the water was poured on the ground and not sucked clean, and I saw that as soon as the water touched the ground, it was flowing slowly at a less obvious speed, and although the water that fell down did not flow much, it really did not come together.

"How so?" Lin Zi asked.

"I don't know, so I was thinking just now, there is neither uneven ground, nor anything that misleads our vision, that means that in fact, we have not encountered the legendary ghost wall, the ghost wall will only appear in the ancient tomb or the wilderness, this golden city has countless gold, and there is no need, and those forks I think are just branches of this river, if we walk in, we will definitely find that it is a dead end, but now we still have a road in front of us, that is, we are not lost in the bottom now, We are still in the course of the Ba River. ”

"Little master, if we are divided according to the names of places on the ground, where do you think we should be at this time?" I asked.

The little master pondered for a while, and said to me: "It's hard to say, when we were in the mirage, we were already in the hinterland of Tengger, if this river is starting from the mirage, then there are only two possibilities, one may be that we are on the way back, and the other may be that we have left Tengger." ”

"If it is to go back, I feel unlikely, because Golden City is in the deepest part of Tengger, so I guess that we should be on the edge of Tengger at this time, and if we don't go out of Tengger, it should be about the same."

I suddenly had an ominous premonition in my mind, "If that's the case......"

"Then our previous guess was completely wrong," replied the little master.

I paused for a moment in my hand holding the kettle, indeed, if it was really as he said, then our previous guess that the aisle was a dividing line was completely wrong, the warehouse could not be so far away from the dwelling, because that would be not conducive to care, if the river collapsed, the gold would be completely buried under the sand, and it would not be easy to find out at that time, and now that we think about it, we should not have guessed like that in the first place, after all, it was just a river.

"It's useless to regret it now, and who would have thought that the river would be so long, and who would have thought that they would use the whole river? Now, we should think about what to do now? Lin Zi said.

As soon as Lin Zi's words were finished, I saw that the little master's face suddenly changed, and his mouth kept repeating what Lin Zi had just said, "Use the whole river, use the whole river......"

"What's wrong?" I asked.

The little master suddenly stood up, "Damn, it turns out that they gave up that gold. ”

As soon as the little master said this, I suddenly figured everything out, yes, it was so far away, unless they didn't want the gold, otherwise, how could they put it at the end of the river.

"Gave up, why?" Lin Zi hadn't reacted yet.

"Because they don't care about it, you think, gold at the end of the river must be guarded over, but what do you see in the aisle? You only see the two people who turned into a sand surge, which means that something must have happened at that time that forced them to give up the gold. ”

"That's a building, what can happen?" Lin Zi asked again.

"Mutiny, mutiny, definitely mutiny." I took over and said to Lin Zi: "It must be the Gu Eagle guarding the gold that has rebelled, so they gave up the gold, this road is not the way they relocate, but the way they flee for their lives." ”

"Doesn't that mean we can go out?"

The little master was a little impatient, he looked at Lin Zi and said to Lin Zi, "Not necessarily, didn't you see that the river started from the warehouse?" In other words, that is the beginning of the Ba River, the real place of the Golden City, do you think, they moved underground, and the entrance was blocked by the black shadow of the Gu Eagle, if they really want to escape, where can they escape? ”

"You can only flee into the depths of the river." Lin Zi seemed to understand something.

"Yes." The little master rubbed his temples, "So I said, we went wrong." ”

"No, if they escaped, why didn't the Gu Eagle Black Shadow catch up? Do you just watch them run away? Lin Zi asked.

"Maybe it's inseparable from those golden ......," I replied for the little master, "and you see that the whole river is clean, and I think they must have taken only what had to be taken, just like us." ”

"But that's just your guess......"

"Is it a guess, and then you can understand it if you continue to move forward?" The little master interrupted Lin Zi's words, "It's almost time to rest now, let's go." ”

"Okay." I stood up, took another searchlight from my expedition bag next to me, untied it and tied it to my heads and the woods, and when everything was ready, we set off again.

This time I walked for more than ten minutes, I felt the blood and qi surged, and my head was still a little dizzy, and I found that the river in front of me suddenly changed, and there were scattered stones in the river, at first the stones here were very small, like random garbage, but slowly I found that the more I went in, the bigger the stones, and finally all of them were paved with stones, and there were two rows of huge sand springs at the end of the river, the surface of the sand swells was very rough, not exquisite, but very high, more than double the size of the sand sand swells in the aisle.
