I still vividly remember that when I was just entering the valley, I stumbled upon the skull that was nailed to the ground, and I asked Rang Dorjee at that time, and he told me that there were marks left by poachers at that time.

But now that I have heard what the old lama said, I know that this is not the case. Since the old lama didn't know the previous situation, I believed the old lama's words more, so this shows that Dorjee was deliberately lying, because if he didn't know the meaning at the time, he could say it clearly, and there was no need to pretend not to understand. Combined with his unnatural expression at the time, I guessed that Dorjee knew that the skull nailed to the ground had a special meaning, and even if he didn't know the specific situation, he was deliberately hiding something. What did he do this for?

But whatever the reason, the complexity of the matter is far beyond my imagination, so I feel that we should go back immediately, and not go any further, or I will not even know how I died.

I made up my mind, so I quietly went back to the house and gently patted the Lantern Festival that was still asleep. Lantern Xiao opened his eyes in a daze, and I motioned for him to come out with me, but Lantern Xiao didn't seem to be able to distinguish which was a dream and which was reality, and looked at me fixedly for half a minute. After I gave him a brain buzz, he immediately came to his senses, rubbed his head and walked out with me.

Lantern Xiao muttered, "Is there something wrong with you, don't let you sleep longer!" I was tossed by the fog last night, and I have to be tossed by you this morning! You're shameless! ”

"Shut up for me!" I gave him a kick, pulled his ear, and told Lantern Festival all the things I thought of. When Lantern Xiao heard this, he also frowned, "Is there such a thing?" ”

"Don't you believe me?"

"No, I believe you!" Lantern Xiao pondered for a while, "In this case, we are not familiar with the environment here, so we can only let Dorjee lead the way, too passive, if he plots wrong, it will be difficult for us to resist, and at this time, Brother Tao is seriously injured, which is very unfavorable to us, I agree with your idea, while the weather is still reasonable, let's hurry down the mountain!" ”

"However, these are just my speculations at the moment, and we don't have any substantial evidence for Cai Rang Dorjee. I guess Kong Xue won't believe it either! ”

"We can use Brother Tao's injury and urgent need of treatment as an excuse to go down the mountain as soon as possible, I think this reason is sufficient enough, and Kong Xue will not refuse. As long as Kong Xue is persuaded to let Dorjee as a guide forgive him, there is nothing to say. ”

"Good!" The two of us made up our minds and went back indoors, and by this time everyone was up, even Shi Tao woke up, but he was still very weak. Lantern Xiao and I told Kong Xue our thoughts, and of course we didn't mention the content of Dorjee. It can be seen that Kong Xue is very unwilling and a little reluctant. I can understand her feelings, after all, Kong Ye's whereabouts are still unknown, and our return in vain like this really makes her a little unacceptable, looking at Kong Xue's expression, I even wonder if I am a little selfish in doing this.

Fortunately, Kong Xue understood the righteousness and nodded and agreed to the proposal to send Shi Tao down the mountain to treat his injuries first. In this process, I have been observing Cai Dorjee's reaction, but he is very calm, I also expected that he will not retort, but he has not made a sound, to my surprise, when he heard that we decided to go down the mountain, he looked a little relaxed, did I think too much, I blame him!

We packed our bags and went to say goodbye to the old lama and the little lama, and the old lama knew that we were going down the mountain, and nodded: "The road ahead is tortuous and difficult, and there are many dangers, so it is a good thing that you have chosen to go down the mountain and return!" ”

I always felt that the old lama knew a lot of things, but he never said it, and I even thought at one point that everyone had their own thoughts and purposes, and I was the only one who was foolishly being played around.

Lantern Xiao carried Shi Tao on his back, I took his equipment, everyone supported each other, and slowly walked down the stone steps. Now walking in this canyon again, after what happened last night, I always feel that there is a little more eerie feeling in this canyon, and I think I am not the only one who has this thought, because everyone has quickened their pace, as if they want to get out of this canyon quickly.

But we had just been walking back in the canyon for some time when we suddenly heard a loud noise ahead. We were all startled, stunned in place, and suddenly Lantern Xiao seemed to remember something, and ran forward quickly with Shi Tao on his back, we didn't know what he was going to do, and we also ran forward with him. When we turned a small corner and looked forward, we were all stunned by what we saw.

We first heard a sound similar to the roar of a car engine, and I even felt a slight tremor on the ground, and not very far in front of us, the snow on the mountains on both sides of the canyon was like a flood, mixed with snow and rocks rushing down with an all-consuming momentum, it was like the roar of nature, compared to how small we were, and in the face of this natural phenomenon, I felt a strong sense of powerlessness in my heart.

A large amount of snow, rocks, and dead branches piled up into the canyon, blocking all the way back.

"Holy! No way! That's it! Can't go back! Lantern Xiao sat on the ground with Shi Tao on his back, his eyes full of despair. Kong Xue was also stunned, a little flustered and at a loss.

Is it really destined to not get out? Is this really our final destination? Wrong! Wait a minute, that bang! Could it be that someone deliberately caused the avalanche? Someone tried to cut us off and stop us from going down the mountain. I turned my head, stared coldly at Cai Rang Dorjee, and said in a deep voice: "This avalanche should be man-made!" ”

Lantern Xiao turned his head violently, "What did you say!" ”

"There was an explosion before the avalanche, and someone deliberately didn't let us go!"

Lantern Xiao also understood, put Shi Tao down, rushed up at once, grabbed Cai Rang Duoji's neck, and yelled: "Say! Did you do it! Why are you doing it! ”

Only then did Dorjee have an innocent expression, "What's wrong with you?" You're crazy! What does this have to do with me! ”

Kong Xue also came over to hold Lantern Xiao, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Wasn't he with us all the time? How could it be him? ”

I took out the gun directly from my bag and said to Cai Rang Dorjee, "Did you already know that there was danger in this canyon?" The skull at the entrance to the canyon wasn't left by poachers, right? Why are you lying to us! Say! If you want to kill us, I'll send you to the West Heaven first!" With that, I turned my gun on him.

Dorjee, who was still innocent, heard my words, his face calmed down, pushed away the Lantern Festival, and bowed his head and said nothing.

"Why are you out of the picture? Do you have any last words? ”

Only then did Dorjee actually smile, "What a joke!" I've been with you for a long time, and if I want to kill you, I have many chances, and I can lead you into a desperate situation in a blizzard, and then throw you down. I could have killed you last night. Even when you're sleeping, I can do it. I want your life, you're dead! ”

"Then why didn't you tell us about the danger when you knew it was at the entrance to the canyon?"

Only then did Dorjee sigh, "You mean the skull at the entrance to the canyon?" Yes, I did know it was the devil, but it was the weather, and we had to go deep into the canyon to avoid the snow! And when the road forks in the back, I want to take you out of the canyon, but you don't listen, you want to take another way, what can I do? ”

"But why don't you tell us that's what the devil means?" Lantern Xiao said.

Only then did Dorjee smile bitterly again, "Even if I told you at the time that there was a devil in the canyon, would you believe it?" Don't talk about you, I won't believe it, it was all legends before, how did I know that it would really appear! The dangerous path is your own choice, I have to accompany you, it's not that I want to kill you, it's you who almost kill me! ”

No way! Although his words still did not convince me, I was speechless. The Lantern Festival next to him was also powerless to refute what Dorjee said. Everyone was in a stalemate for a while, seeing this scene, Kong Xue had no choice but to come out to play a round, "Okay, okay, there may be some misunderstanding here, what happened in the past two days is too bizarre, everyone's nerves are too nervous, the current situation, we can only return to the Lama Temple first, and then make plans, let's go." Saying that, Kong Xue pushed me and Lantern Xiao, and the two of us glanced at each other, so they picked up Shi Tao and picked up the equipment. Turn around and return to the mysterious lama temple.
