9. Simu Temple
Sure enough, when I threw the torch over, there was a noise in the grass, and something quickly rushed out: "Someone? Who? Asuke yelled. After a sound in the air, there was no response, and Asuke jerked his head down and asked me in the water, "You know someone?" โ
"That's right, I see the reflection." I turned around and stopped looking in that direction.
"Glasses? That's why you ask? Suke asked, a little unconfidently.
I glanced at him, and saw that the fire was full of questions, and it was hard to say that my people had concealed things to such an extent that it would be unbelievable for anyone to change and even have some hatred and guilt, and just by looking at the fact that Ali could take out the shotgun from Asuke's house, I knew that their relationship was not ordinary, and maybe they were still relatives? "What do you say?" I turned my body around in the water and said, "Isn't it time to pull me out?" Are you going to let me talk to you like this? โ
"Wait." Asuke abruptly stopped Keith and said, "I'll do it!" There's a large part of the area that's already affected by wetlands, and if you're not careful, you'll get stuck in it. โ
A few minutes later, I was pulled out by them, I looked at the other side of the wetland, and then at Asuke, and when I was pulled out by them, I told them that I should go in and track them, instead of waiting, and maybe he was still hesitant to enter the so-called forbidden land, after all, this rule is for the political axe to limit them. So I felt the need to say something to them, "That." "You must have been looking at the woods when I threw the torch over.
They were stunned after hearing this, and probably didn't expect me to have anything to do, but they still gave me a reply in a short time, one shook his head and the other nodded, I sweated, and said to the nodding Asuke, "Then you know the reflective effect of the lens in the dark night, right?" โ
"I know, didn't you see it before?" He continued to nod his head and motioned for me to continue.
"Alright! So when I threw the torch, did you see the reflection? You know, my flashlight is always pointed at that place. I said in a deep voice, not giving him any chance to think." I stuck out my finger "First, I missed it." Second, they still have people, and the one I scared away is not Ali. And then what. โ
"Okay, I know what to do." Assuke interrupted me, "Gis, you go and inform everyone that the person has been found, I'm going to take a look at the wetlands with this masked friend now, and if we haven't come back in 2 days, you can let the political axe send someone in." โ
Okay, I drank it in my heart, so that I have a chance to enter it, anyway, I have a purpose now, he has a purpose now, and there are still 2 days, I also thought about a dull period just now, if we don't go inside in time, maybe it's really the turn of the political axe, after all, this kind of expedition is not the first time that this kind of expedition to the country has been held, so my chance is only tonight, and even if I want to come alone in the future, it is absolutely impossible, because I don't have a guide, I knew that I couldn't fool those antiques with a mask, and I didn't know much about the history of such customs, so the only people who could take me in were people like Xiang Asuke who knew about the mountains and might have entered the wetlands.
Why? I've been making this plan around Asuke since he knew about some of the wetlands and pulled me out of the water, and everything was centered around him, and he had absolutely, or 100% of the way, had been in the wetlands, for no other reason. First of all, from the fact that he can carry a shotgun into the mountain, I found that the most powerful of these people is a shotgun, and no one takes a shotgun at all, which should be a decree issued by the local political axe, so there is only one kind of person who can hold a shotgun and enter the mountain under the eyes of the general eye, that is, the mountain ranger of the Yi nationality, of course, I am not inferring out of thin air, all this inference comes from his sentence "The gun cannot be given to you for the time being." โ
If I had time, I would have liked to learn about this profession, but not now, I have walked a few hundred meters to the right with Asuke, and the area of shrubs is getting larger and larger, and some plants that are dense in the water such as water plants, floating leaf plants, etc., with the disappearance of light, I gradually can't see it, but I know that there are all kinds of pine forests in the distance and near places, they grow in the water for a long time, and they are different from those on the slopes, and their rhizomes are buried in the water, resulting in different conditions from land plants in all aspects, Although tens of thousands of years of history have evolved, after all, there are few differences, after all, they are different plants in the distribution area, which are brought into the water by the expansion of the area of the wetland, withering and withering, dying of old age, and the rest is these pine forests that have shrunk several times.
And those withered trees are stacked horizontally in the wetland pine forest, and during the day they look like a labyrinth, but at night we really walk in them and look at "them" like arms bent, some like old people lying on their backs, and some like the pre-death scenes of teeth and claws, I look at them as if they are a picture of demons, a sea of ghosts crying corpses.
"There's a pontoon bridge up front." At this time, Asuke finally opened his mouth to break the dull atmosphere.
"Pontoon?" I sighed, "Are you sure it's a pontoon?" I wondered.
"That's right." He nodded and said, "I was also very strange when I found this thing, maybe you don't know that when this area didn't belong to anyone, I was the mountain ranger in the village at that time, along with my father, and then this land was divided, and I didn't have the right to come in." โ
"You found the pontoon bridge at that time?" I followed Asuke through the water, which was not shallow or deep, and after walking for a short time, I came to a hard piece of wood on the sole of my foot.
"I don't know what age the wooden bridge was originally built through the river, but in the end, the river swelled and formed a wetland here, and all kinds of shrubs and grasses grew and slowly buried it." As he spoke, Suke stomped his foot in the water a few times. Then he smiled at me and said, "It's not bad!" Pretty sturdy. โ
"Hey, hey." I crouched on the ground as a direct reaction to his start, and the propagation of a sound in the dark seemed to reach an unexpected direction, and then caused various chain reactions in this wetland pine forest, and finally the frightened birds and animals transmitted all the sounds back to my ears.
"It's so boring. I've walked this bridge countless times, but I still know if it's strong. โ
"I'm really convinced." I sighed, helplessly, "Let's go, don't waste too much time here, after all, there is still no food." โ
I said a little pessimistically, but who knew that Asuke couldn't laugh when he heard my words, and he pointed at me and scolded, "You are so stupid, we have guns in our hands, are you afraid that we will not have meat?" โ
I really feel stupid when he says this, this is not a desert area, how can there be no food, but the water source may become one of the problems, it seems that the wetland we are in now is upstream and we are now going down the water trend, who can guarantee that the water below is not polluted.
Ah Su seemed to see what was on my mind, patted me with his hand, and hooked my shoulder, "I didn't think too much, at least this place is still relatively familiar to me." โ
"Hmm" I nodded and walked with him back and forth, there was no such large-scale wetland in the depths of the jungle, so groups of trees were growing wildly, they were towering, standing there quietly, the wind was much stronger at night, it was almost midnight, Asuke said that there might be a lot of wild beasts, so we had to be careful.
I know, I nodded, silently in my mind, and lowered the torch to the ground, "Beware of snakes, right?" โ
"Yes, you have a bit of common sense, look at your feet, and try to stay away from the grass and roots." Although Asuke said this, I looked around, and there was still a little clearing, and the grass he was talking about could only mean the grass that reached above my knees, like the ocean, and I felt the rhythm of the wind in the absence of moonlight, but suddenly I felt the wind getting stronger.
I don't know how long I walked like this, there was no purpose in my actions, and finally the wind alerted me, and I looked up, and here was a clearing, and in the center of the clearing was a huge tree, and it stood in the middle, without any leaves and branches around it, and the moonlight slanted down, like a silver waterfall, beautiful. But I still couldn't see the top of him, but it wasn't much, and when I thought I couldn't reach that height, I looked down and saw a temple made of bricks standing under a tree.
