Chapter 14: The River of Blood

On this day, Mo Beitian was still training in the training ground, and suddenly a black shadow came from behind him, Mo Beitian felt a fist wind pressing directly on his cheek, but at this time, Mo Beitian did not panic but when the fist wind was only a few centimeters away from him, he suddenly lowered his head to avoid the attacker's fist and bent down, stepped out with his left foot, bent his elbows, and slammed his right elbow forward, and the attacker was bounced out by the elbow.

Attacking Mo Vitian was none other than the Golden Mask that trained him these days. This sneak attack hit didn't hit Mo Zhitian but was bounced away by him with elbow force, fortunately, Golden Mask is also a well-trained person, and when the inertia of the backwards weakens, he quickly kicks the ground with his hind foot and is easy to zhanzhu.

"It looks like you're making rapid progress. Although it was only a month, I had already mastered the essentials. The rest is up to you to hone in the future! Golden Mask said as he tugged at his robe.

Mo Zhitian knew that the blow of the Golden Mask just now was intended to test himself, so Mo Beitian had already used all his strength, but he still let the Golden Mask easily dissolve, which shows that this mysterious person is really not simple. This month's training has really made him improve extraordinarily, and now he can play a few tricks against the Golden Mask, but if he really wants to make a move, he will definitely not be able to win against this mysterious man. Mo Beitian still wanted to learn more time, but when he heard the golden mask talk about the future, he already knew that it was time for him to leave this place.

Mo Beitian bowed to the golden mask and said, "No matter what reason you have, at least you have taught a lot these days, and I am very grateful to Mo Zhitian." Next, I will find out the truth according to what you say, for you, for myself, and for the person I really love! ”

Golden Mask waved his hand and said, "I don't want to hear that. I just don't want you to die easily while you're doing things for me. I used to say you have to go according to your own feelings, and you have always been like this, and you still are. Go ahead and keep looking for answers based on your feelings, and I'm sure you'll do it. ”

After saying that, the golden mask left without looking back. Mo stood on the training ground for a long time, and then slowly climbed up from the ladder and returned to the original platform. He found that the iron door at the entrance of the cave was not closed, and a travel bag on his shoulders was placed next to it. Mo walked over and opened the travel bag, which contained some essential items for survival in the wild: a folding saber, a key-type portable flashlight, a flare gun, a map of the whole territory of the Republic, an electronic locator, some bandages and medicines. It seems that these things were specially left for him by the Golden Mask.

Mo Beitian didn't think much about it, immediately packed his travel bag and put it on his shoulder, and strode out of the cave. When the scorching sun was over, Mo Zhitian couldn't open his eyes. It's no wonder that he's always hated sunshine since he was wronged. The sun that can bring you warmth and security has an indescribable weirdness to Mo Beitian.

This cave is on top of a barren mountain. The mountain is not very high, and it is a small hill that is common in hilly areas. God knows that there are no hills near Pallas, and it should be surrounded by plains, so it should be far from Pallas.

Mo took out the locator and map from his backpack and looked at it. Sure enough, it was at least 300 kilometers away from Pallas.

Mo put the locator and map back in his backpack, sat on the ground and began to think. The Golden Mask is gone, and he wants to find the truth by feeling. When he was almost captured by the men of the Seventh Division, he was about to go to the other side of the Blood River. The river of blood was one of Paul's clues to Mo Zhitian. Among the several puzzles, Mo Zhitian solved this one first. The graphite buttons must have come from the river of blood, and to really understand what Paul meant, you had to go there first. This month was delayed in this cave, and I don't know if his six clues are still in the blood river. Mo Beitian thought seriously, he felt that it was still necessary to go, he always felt that there would be something he needed there. Didn't the Golden Mask say? Trust your feelings, you can't be wrong!

Mo didn't hesitate when he thought of this. He stood up and patted the dust off his body. Slowly descend the mountain.

There is a road right at the foot of this mountain. Mo Feitian touched his pocket, fortunately, there were still a few hundred Republic coins in it. This should be the time to hitchhike to the Blood River. Thinking of this, Mo Yantian walked to the side of the road and began to wave, hoping that a car would pass by and take him to the River of Blood. But he waited for a long time, and no car passed by, and the scorching sun baked the earth. Mo Beitian stood on the side of the highway and waited anxiously, beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and he felt as if his whole body was about to be roasted, and if he had a while, he might faint.

Finally, a classic car swayed from not far away. The thick black smoke from the back of the car proves that it was a product of the republic's switch to electricity as a transportation energy source more than 30 years ago. This kind of car is basically in the museum for people to admire, and it is also a scrapped car when it is taken out, and it is really rare to see someone driving it now. However, Mo was not in the mood to think about this, in his opinion, as long as there was something that could carry him to the blood river, now was not the time to pick and choose.

Thinking of this, Mo Zhitian hurriedly stretched out his hand to take a ride. The driver who was driving also saw someone waving, and slowly drove the car to a stop next to Mo Beitian.

"Friend, where are you going?" The driver was a thin, dark-skinned middle-aged man. He asked unhurriedly with a straw in his mouth.

"I want to go to the river of blood on the other side of Pallas, can you give me a ride, big brother?" Mo replied quickly.

"River of Blood? It's at least 300 kilometers from here! It's too far! "The driver was clearly hesitant.

Seeing this, Mo Yantian hurriedly took out a hundred Republic coins from his pocket and asked, "Are these enough?" I'm really in a hurry. ”

The swarthy man glanced at Qian and said with a smile: "Young man, are there still people in this country who have eyes for money?" It's a lot of money, but I can't take it. Since you're really in a hurry, I'll give you a ride. ”

Mo Beitian felt extremely happy, and immediately bowed to this man, and said, "Then Xiexie you!" ”

There was no word all the way, and the journey of more than 300 kilometers was half a day, and it was not until it was dark that the classic car arrived near Pallas. This is the end of the road, and in front of it is a wilderness overgrown with weeds, which are more than a meter high. These weeds are so lush that you can't see the end of this grassy wasteland when you look up.

The swarthy man glanced at the road in front of him and said, "Young man, this place is only a few miles away from the Blood River, and there is no road ahead, so I won't send you." ”

Mo Beitian nodded, and after getting out of the car, he bowed to the driver again, and walked into the wilderness after thanking him.

The moon is sparse tonight, and there are no other pedestrians in the wilderness. Mo took out the map, turned on the flashlight, and studied the map by the light.

Two kilometers further north is the River of Blood. It was the upper reaches of the Blood River, and there was indeed a graphite mine nearby. It was mined decades ago. Pallas has a large electronics factory, and graphite is the main component material for electrical equipment, so the mine has always supplied graphite to Pallas. Paul is probably talking about this graphite mine. So what's the secret in this mine? Is this secret related to the disappearance of Xiaoxue and Mr. Situ? If there really is someone in the republic who is planning something, and what does it have to do with graphite? Mo Beitian felt that no matter how much he thought, it would be futile, and only by going deep into it would he find the answer. He closed the map, took out the locator again, and after entering the coordinates on the map, the indicator light on the upper end of the instrument lit up, and the display screen of the instrument showed that there was still 1.93 kilometers to the northeast of the destination. Mo Zhitian walked towards the graphite mine with a locator, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
