After everyone came to the river, they looked at the rushing river and overturned their guesses. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The river is more than two meters wide, with stones on the sides and snow on the perimeter. Walking here, the snow has become very thin, not as deep as when you first stepped here.

The river is very fast, it doesn't look like it is coming down from the Kalmai Snow Mountain, but from a certain river. And here, it is a tributary that has been carved out by man or nature.

Li Xuyang and the others stood outside the river, looking at the tributary of the river, unable to judge how deep it was. If you skip over, although many people here can do it, there are also some people who can't, such as Wei Tu and Tong Le.

Jiang Botong took a closer look, and then walked to the river, but was pulled by Li Xuyang.

"What are you doing?" Li Xuyang looked at him and asked puzzledly, if the river is very deep, even if you don't die if you jump in, your whole body will be soaked and you will get sick.

"It's fine. Jiang Botong just said two words lightly, then took Li Xuyang's hand away with his hand and walked to the river.

After coming to the river, standing on a protruding rock, Jiang Botong looked at the river. In full view of everyone, he crouched down, then reached out and touched the water.

After Jiang Botong touched it, he plunged into it. Seeing this, Li Xuyang hurriedly stepped forward, but as soon as he came to the river, Jiang Botong had disappeared.

"Jiang Botong, Jiang Botong..."

Li Xuyang shouted on the shore, but he didn't hear his answer for a long time, and a bad premonition also came to his heart. Could it be that Jiang Botong fell into the water and drowned? No, this is impossible, but why didn't he come out for a long time?

Li Xuyang returned to Ji Zhe's side, and then began to take off his snow suit, although it was cold, if the snow suit was wet, then he would really freeze to death. It's better to take it off, and when you come up, you can still keep warm when you put it on.

"What are you doing?" Looking at Li Xuyang, who was taking off his snow suit, Ji Zhe stepped forward and grabbed him and asked.

"I'm going to save him. ”

"No need. As soon as Li Xuyang finished speaking, Jiang Botong poked his head out of the river, and then walked out directly.

"I, I thought you were drowned. Tong Le stepped forward with a smile, and then slapped Jiang Botong's body, but when his hand just touched him, the smile on his face instantly froze.

Not only him, but everyone looked at Jiang Botong in surprise. How is this possible? Jumping into the water, after coming up, the clothes turned out to be dry, and there was not even a little dampness? Could it be that Jiang Botong would have what kind of cover? Condensed the true qi to protect the clothes from getting wet?

This is obviously impossible.

"Surprised, right?" Jiang Botong seemed to have expected such a reaction from others, so he asked.

"What's going on? You just jumped in, why aren't your clothes wet?" asked Tong Le, puzzled.

"It's simple, because that's not real water. Jiang Botong said with a smile, and then came to the river again, put his hand in, and went to pick up the water. But the water did not move, and there was no water at all that he pulled out, and even his hands were not wet.

"What's going on, how can it be an illusion?" asked Li Xuyang, who didn't understand.

"Do you know about the mirage?" Jiang Botong asked rhetorically.

"Of course I do. ”

In ancient times, people have encountered mirages. Most of the mirages are found in the desert, and they are formed because they reflect the nearby scene, so that from a distance, they look as if they are actually standing in the middle of the desert.

And in recent years, whenever you travel to the desert or pass through, some people will see mirages. Especially if you're very hungry and thirsty, when your eyes start to blur, and when combined with the heat, you can hallucinate a mirage.

Li Xuyang just doesn't understand, why can a mirage that can only appear in the desert also appear in this kind of snow-capped mountains?

"In fact, when Tong Le saw it at the beginning, it was not a river, it was just an illusion. At that time, everyone was very tired and didn't care about this problem, and if we had to look at it, we could see through it from a distance of two or three meters, but at that time we were all resting.

And now that the sun has risen, combined with the sunlight, the invisible water vapor rising from the melting of the snow and the reflection on the surface of the snow-capped mountains, it will form a mirage-like scene.

But it's not easy to see it, it's something you can't come by, like a rainbow after a rain. It's not that there will be a rainbow when the sun is exposed when it rains, and that also requires a certain environment. ”

"I see. ”

Hearing Ji Zhe's explanation, everyone suddenly realized. If it weren't for Jiang Botong testing the water just now, I'm afraid they would have bypassed it directly and wouldn't have crossed the river.

"However, the scene on the other side of the river is not as simple as it seems. After Jiang Botong said this, his face began to become solemn.

"What's wrong?" asked Li Xuyang.

"Somebody should have been here, and there's a bureau here, and the purpose of this bureau is to prevent anyone from crossing the other side of the river. Jiang Botong said.

"So, has anyone been here? Who could it be?" none of them could guess this, after all, anyone could possibly do it, and besides, this is a foreign country, not a domestic one.

"I don't know, but the purpose of our coming here is to find the truth, why don't we go in and have a look?" Jiang Botong finished speaking, and once again got into the river.

After seeing him enter, the others also went inside.

When they came to the opposite side, everyone's eyes were bright. When viewed from a distance, there are no people at the bottom of the mountain, let alone houses. After crossing the river, I saw a house at the foot of the mountain, which was still a wooden house. Above the wooden house, smoke rose and drifted in the breeze.

"Someone's home?" Li Xuyang looked at the wooden house, and then said in surprise.

"Let's go, let's see. After Jiang Botong finished speaking, he pulled Li Xuyang and walked in the direction of the wooden house.

In such a harsh environment, how could anyone come to live here? Even if there were people, what would he eat here?

With all kinds of questions, Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong came to the door of the wooden house. The others stayed where they were to rest, after all, there were many people who went, and the target was large, and those bodyguards were still carrying guns, which might scare the people inside.

The door of the wooden house was very old, and there were even signs of something scratching it. It's also dark inside, so you can't see what's inside when you stand outside, and there's something like a door god on the door, but it's a drawing yourself.

"Yu Chigong, Qin Shubao?" Li Xuyang looked at the painting on the door and said in surprise. As we all know, Wei Chigong and Qin Shubao are the founding fathers of the Tang Dynasty, because of their outstanding military achievements, they were later become door gods and were pasted outside the door to ward off evil spirits.

But how could it be that in this foreign country, there are also people who believe in Wei Chigong and Qin Shubao? Could it be that the people living in it are not foreigners, but Chinese?

"That's right, it's them. Jiang Botong carefully looked at the painting on the door, and then confirmed.

No sooner had they finished their sentence than a voice came from the room.

"Who are you, why are you here, and who am I?" spoke in a man's voice, a sad and vicissitudes of life, and spoke in English.

Li Xuyang wanted to answer, but a voice came from the room again, still in English.

"I remember I came here to look for something, but why didn't I find it?"

"Two people?" Li Xuyang looked at Jiang Botong, a little puzzled.

Jiang Botong didn't answer, just pointed to the room and motioned for him to continue listening.

"I forgot, I forgot. The words came several times again, still in English, "Who am I? Who am I?"

Listening to the sound getting smaller and smaller, Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong quietly walked in, and the space in the wooden house was very small. But there is everything, tables, chairs, benches, and chopsticks, but they are all made of wood, and judging from the roughness of the surface, they should be made by themselves.

After Li Xuyang walked in, he didn't see anyone, but when he saw another place, he found that it was separated by several wooden planks tied together. The room was a little bright, and he could see a figure busy inside.

"The meal is ready, it's time to eat. The man spoke, and then stepped out of it. This sentence, however, is in Chinese, which can also be said to be a dialect with a Shanxi accent.

After Li Xuyang saw him come out, he immediately pulled Jiang Botong and walked out. After waiting outside for a while, they heard the sound of the man returning again, and the sound of the wooden bowl on the wooden table, and then they walked in.

But when they entered, they didn't attract the attention of the person in front of them, but they ignored Li Xuyang, and still buried their heads in eating the contents of their bowls, like pork ribs.

The taste was also very fragrant, Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong looked at him eating, and they were a little hungry.

"Sit down, you two!" the man didn't look up, but said lightly.

After they sat down, he waited for a few more minutes, and then he finished the contents of the bowl, drank the last soup into his stomach, and after burping with satisfaction, he officially looked at Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong.

"You are the first person who can enter the ecstasy and cross the border. The man raised his head, looked at Li Xuyang, and then complimented.

"That bureau, you arranged it? Are you Chinese?" Jiang Botong questioned, judging from the Chinese he spoke at the beginning, he should know that he is Chinese.

"Am I like a foreigner?"

When he raised his head, Li Xuyang could see him clearly. My hair was messy, it looked like I hadn't washed it in a long time, and my clothes were dirty. Dressed very thinly, it seems that he doesn't know that he lives at the foot of a snow-capped mountain, but lives in an environment where the seasons are like spring.

"Why are you here? And who are you? How could there be a foreigner talking just now?" Li Xuyang asked three questions in a row, and he really didn't understand too much.
