Li Bing smiled slyly and said, "Don't be silent, you look at the side of the road, and you will understand in a while." ”

He started the car and turned around. From a distance, I saw a group of people riding mountain bikes on the road ahead, led by a flag planted on the car, and was struggling to pedal forward.

Zhao Wan'er said suspiciously: "Li Bing, how many people do you know?" ”

Li Bing shook his head and said with a smile: "Take a closer look, are they the target we are looking for?" ”

Everyone was puzzled, staring at those people, Leng couldn't see anything special. Shi Liya suddenly exclaimed: "I understand, it turns out that what Li Bing wants us to see is not the two women and three men, but the colorful flag on the back seat of the leader's car!" ”

After Shi Liya reminded her, everyone immediately understood what was going on, and it turned out that on the small bunting, there were five big words written on it'Seven Star Expedition Group'.

Could it be that these five people turned out to be the number of the 'seven stars' they had to go through in the next level? Although everyone was excited, they also had a great doubt.

There are only five of them, how can they be called 'seven stars'? Could it be that this 'seven stars' does not refer to the number of people, but to another mystery?

Li Bing slowly drove to the side of the group, leaned out the window and asked loudly, "Hey, buddy, are you really an expedition team?" ”

The man in the lead was taken aback and turned to look inside the car. Only then did Li Bing and the others see that the three men and two women had no childish look on their faces, like students who had just entered the university.

Li Bing saw that the other party seemed to be quite worried about strangers, so he glanced at Zhao Wan'er in the passenger seat. Zhao Wan'er immediately understood, and greeted the other party in her sweet voice.

The person who was the leader, after seeing Zhao Wan'er in the car, immediately relaxed his vigilance. He said while stepping on the car: "Hehe, it can't be called an expedition group, it's a few of our classmates who went to play together, so we gave it this name." ”

Zhao Wan'er said sweetly: "Can you come down and rest for a while?" We're from Shanghai, and we're not familiar with it, so can we ask for directions? Seeing that you are tired, we have mineral water in the car, otherwise why don't you stop and chat for a while, how about drinking saliva and resting? ”

The man gladly agreed, whistled sharply, and the four behind him stopped their mountain bikes.

Li Bing also parked the car on the side of the road, Zhao Wan'er and Shi Liya got out of the car first, Li Bing also opened the trunk of the car, and together with Zhang Yuanshan, took out six bottles of mineral water and handed them to the five student-looking people.

When the other party saw the beautiful and elegant Zhao Wan'er and the charming and touching Shi Liya with the charm of a mature woman, they all had a good impression at once, took the mineral water handed by Li Bing and Zhang Yuanshan, twisted their necks and drank it.

After drinking a large sip of cool water, the five of them exhaled unconsciously. It seems that they have all gone through a long ride, and they have all been rested all of a sudden, and they all show tiredness.

Zhao Wan'er smiled and asked, "This little brother, my name is Zhao Wan'er, and I came here from Shanghai to travel. Are you any locals? I think you look like college students! ”

The leader of the ** said: "Miss Zhao, hello! My name is Cao Jianwei and I am the leader of this expedition team. He pointed to the other three men and said, "This one is called Zhou Kejun, and the one behind is called Li Jianfeng." Hehe, those two girls are called Zhang Ling and Shao Lixia. ”

Cao Jianwei took another big sip of water and said: "A few of us are juniors at Lanzhou University, and we ride together to play around during the summer. Seeing that the school year is about to start, our trip is the last stop. After the end of the expedition, we will return to Lanzhou. ”

In order to show off to the students, they also specially ordered a flag, which was planted on the back of the mountain bike, and five big characters were written on it: 'Seven Star Expedition Group'.

Cao Jianwei told Zhao Wan'er that the expedition was not planned. He and the other two boys, who lived in the same dormitory at Lanzhou University, received an email in a hotel in the evening after they had been riding their bicycles to Qianling the day before.

It turned out that there were a total of four people living in their dormitory, and the other classmate was from Shouyang Mountain in the Qinling Mountains. The classmate's name was He Jie, who was usually taciturn and relatively distant from the other three classmates.

He Jie did not participate in their summer cycling trip, but returned to his hometown of Shouyang Mountain after the holiday. The night before, He Jie suddenly sent them an email, telling them that he had discovered a mysterious cave on Shouyang Mountain in his hometown.

According to He Jie, he went to Shouyang Mountain that day, and because he was bored, he walked aimlessly in the mountains, and as a result, less than a kilometer away from his home, he accidentally discovered a cave that he had never found before.

The cave was full of bells and stones, and the scenery was peculiar, which fascinated him at once. Because he didn't have a flashlight with him, he didn't dare to go deeper, so he looked at the mouth of the wide cave for a long time, and only after dark did he reluctantly leave there.

When he left, as soon as he looked up, he found the Big Dipper that was particularly obvious in the starry sky, so he named the unknown cave 'Seven Star Cave'.

He Jie's email sparked the curiosity of the other five people at once. Cao Jianwei tentatively asked He Jie if he could take a few of them to explore the cave, but he didn't expect He Jie, who usually rarely spoke, to invite them in an email reply.

Therefore, this group of five people rode to Shouyang Mountain.

Shi Liya said fascinatedly: "Shouyang Mountain! I have long wanted to go, but I didn't go when I was studying in Xi'an, and then I graduated, and I never had the opportunity to go again, which became a big regret for me. ”

Zhao Wan'er said: "Sister Shi, I am so familiar with the three words of Shouyang Mountain, I seem to have heard of it somewhere!" Isn't Shouyang Mountain famous and fun? ”

Shi Liya said fascinatedly: "Shouyang Mountain is said to be named after the first of the mountains, and the sun shines first. Tang Shang was not in the year and the early Western Zhou Dynasty and the king of Guzhu had two sons, Boyi and Shuqi, and let the heirs go to Zhou. Later, they heard that King Wu was cutting down and knocking on the horse. Because King Wu didn't listen, he was angry and didn't eat Zhou Su. ”

"Boyi and Shuqi traveled west to Shouyang Mountain, picked roses and ate, and then starved to death in Shouyang Mountain. Shouyang Mountain also became a famous mountain in Longyou, and Shouyang County was established here during the Qin and Han dynasties. 'Hungry to death without eating Zhou Su' has become one of the images of loyal and righteous men appreciated in the hearts of the ancients. ”

Cao Jianwei looked at Sister Shi with admiration and said, "I heard Miss Zhao call you Sister Shi just now, don't you mind if I call you that, right?" Sister Shi, you are so knowledgeable, I'm really ashamed, although we are in college, we haven't studied history well, and I really don't know this allusion! ”

Shi Liya smiled and said: "We are also out to play, there is no direction, if you don't mind, how about we go to Shouyang Mountain together?" ”
