Unlike the neat birch forests in the northeast that I remember, the trees that grow in this forest look quite old, such as Korean pine, spruce, and fir...... Towering trees that can't be hugged abound. Although it is now the season of frost, the leaves have not yet fallen, and you can still see the momentum of the lush leaves, covering the sky and the sun. As soon as you walk in, you quickly lose your sense of direction, and if you don't have a guide, it's really easy to get lost.

Under our feet, there are thick fallen leaves and slippery moss, and sometimes at first glance it looks like an ordinary ground, but there is a pit underneath it, so we can only strictly follow Uncle Quan's command and move forward cautiously.

It was a coincidence that not far after walking out, a strong wind suddenly blew in the forest, and the wind was full of rotten leaves and the smell of earth.

In this way, the smoke screen that Wang Shaoting put out just now is estimated to disperse quickly, and the chasing soldiers are afraid that they will arrive soon!

"Uncle Quan, it seems that we have to speed up." I said to our guide.

He glanced back at me, paused for two seconds, and suddenly said, "Are you afraid of death?" ”

Well? Why do you suddenly ask that? But how can I say cowardice in this situation, I immediately and firmly said: "Don't be afraid! ”

"Let's go!" He suddenly changed direction and led us in the other direction.

Although I felt that the terrain was getting higher, I didn't obviously feel that I was climbing a mountain, but after walking a short distance, the mountain suddenly became steeper, and in some places I even needed to use my hands and feet together.

After walking for a while, the four of us were a little out of breath, but Uncle Quan was still like no one else, his steps were like flying, and he didn't show any tiredness, only slowed down when he turned a ridge, and turned around and said, "Be careful." ”

At this turn of perspective, the four of us exclaimed "Ah" in unison!

I saw that the originally steep mountain was like a cut, to this area sinks suddenly, forming a huge canyon, several waterfalls are pouring down from all over the mountain like a rainbow, you can't see the source upward, you can't see the falling place downward, plus you don't know whether it is the water mist or the flying clouds layer by layer, and the birds pass by in flocks, which makes people immediately think of Sun Dasheng's Huaguo Mountain and Water Curtain Cave, it is really a fairyland-like grand scene!

In such a beautiful scenery, the heart is relaxed and happy, and the spirit is not lifted by Liu!

But when we look closer, we don't seem happy.

Because Uncle Quan took us away, it is the cliff on the edge of the Grand Canyon halfway up, only less than half a meter wide a section of plank road that can not be seen at a glance, and then look down, it is a bottomless cliff, dizzying, I feel that I will fall down and see the gods if I am not careful!

Because of this, I already understand Uncle Quan's intentions. No matter how many pursuers there are, it is impossible for them to pose any threat to us on this kind of road, and if they are not careful, it is easy to lose their troops, even if it is just to delay some of their progress, it is worth it.

Immediately took a deep breath, and according to Uncle Quan's instructions, he took out a rope from his bag and tied it around his waist with everyone. In the end, Uncle Quan also asked each of us to take a short blade and pin it to our waists. Only then did we bend down and walk up the boardwalk.

Although Uncle Quan didn't make any explanations, we can all see that although this rope is to ensure our safety and facilitate rescue when someone stumbles, once too many people unfortunately fall, it may be helpless to use this short blade to cut the rope to save the lives of the rest.

But this choice was inevitably resistant, and I quickly joked, "We can now be grasshoppers on a rope." ”

Who knew that Rui Wei immediately retorted: "Don't say that, it's autumn now." ”

I immediately knew that she was referring to the "grasshopper after autumn", and I couldn't help laughing: "Yes, so be steady, don't jump!" ”

As soon as he said this, his feet slipped and he immediately tried his best to climb the mountain wall with his hands to stabilize his figure.

"Look, that's what you mean by yourself!" Rui Wei's face turned pale with fright, but she still didn't forget to tease me.

"Huh." Wang Shaoting and Yue Ningmei both smiled.

Although they chatted easily, they didn't dare to relax in their spirits, and several people followed Uncle Quan closely, walking up tentatively step by step.

After an hour of worrying about it, we finally climbed this plank road and came to a gentle slope, when the twilight was approaching, and the clouds were thick, and the visibility was already very low, but we didn't say much, and we kept honestly following Uncle Quan.

"This mountain really shouldn't be called Buxian Mountain." I said as I tried to take a deep breath.

"How?" Rui asked.

"It's only a little bit of sweat after crawling, how can it not be salty! It should be called Juxian Mountain! ”

"That's because you're not exercising! If it were someone else, it would be enough to call it a little salty mountain. But she held it up.

Usually the two of us are used to bickering, Wang Shaoting and Yue Ningmei have always been just enthusiastic spectators.

"If you really want to call it Buxian Mountain, I guess it's here with Uncle Quan. Isn't that Uncle Quan? I turned back to Uncle Quan in front of me and said.

Who knows that this time around, where is there anyone in front? There was only a dreary night, and the shadows of the trees that were endless and dark!

Ay? I was walking in front just now, why is there no one to turn around? I quickly stopped and shouted, "Uncle Quan! Uncle Quan! ”

But I felt a "bang" on my lower back, and a deep voice said next to me: "Here! ”

I turned my head to take a closer look, but I saw a stick stretched out from the tall grass next to me and dangled it.

When you go in, this hole is more than one person high, there is about five or six square meters of space inside, the ground is full of gravel, and there is no smell of wild beasts, it is a very ideal place to spend the night, and I can't help but be happy!

Immediately they found some broken branches and hay, and made a fire, and the people sat around the fire and ate their dry food.

Walking here, I finally understood why Uncle Quan insisted on entering the mountain immediately. Although the weather was very cloudy, it was still not raining, and it was estimated that he wanted to hurry up and climb a section first. Once it rains, the road up the mountain will become very difficult to walk, especially the plank road just now, and it is basically impossible to climb after the rain. And the reason why the pace does not stop, eighty percent also calculated that there is such a shelter when it gets dark. In the end, it's an old mountain man, and I really can't accept it!

After eating, Uncle Quan took some hay and spread it on the edge of the cave, and fell asleep.

The four of us were preoccupied and some of us had no intention of sleeping.

"Will those people follow us on this route, or will they find another way up the mountain?" Rui Wei said.

"It depends on how well prepared they are. This kind of mountain is definitely not suitable for a large group of people to move, the most likely is a team of three or five people, acting separately, and there will definitely be people left at the bottom of the mountain to stop us when we go down the mountain. I muttered.

"Three or five? So what if you catch up? Even if there are more than ten people, they are not our opponents. ”

"Their purpose may not necessarily be to 'catch up.'" I say. (To be continued.) )
