"Hey, don't be busy leaving, I still have something to discuss with you about the investigation...... What do you see, Jiao Qiao is not at home, he went to inspect the Shenyang base, and he just left in the afternoon. ”

Seeing that Zhou Yuan was leaving, Lin Na hurriedly got up and chased to the door, seeing that it was about to be three o'clock in the middle of the night, you said that you would raise your legs and leave, I drank half a pot of tea and went back to sleep. Come on, don't leave anyone, stay up until dawn!

"Hey, Lan Yu'er is not so tight that she dares to lie to me! Call her in, I'm too lazy to write, let her help me record! ”

Zhou Yuan didn't listen to it, but when she heard that Jiao Qiao was not at home, she immediately remembered Lan Yu'er's words. There is no fear, I don't know if the three eyes of Ma Wangye are, then let you taste the taste of staying up late to make meeting minutes, not a word!

"Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells......"

Just as the adjudicator was rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to search for suspicious people within the control area, the delegation was waiting for the news of the magpie, and Zhou Yuan was intensively planning the visit, the source of all the chaos, the incarnation of Justice Youluo, the herdsman Biresi, the homeless Avanti, and the dead ghost Hong Tao also led the horse out of the Yining checkpoint, humming a small song in their mouths and walking slowly south.

Last night, I spent the night at Fang Wenlin's house, focusing on inquiring about the situation of the adjudicator, and the result was very unsatisfactory. Fang Wenlin had only heard of this secret organization, but he didn't know the inside story. When he was in the base, there was no ascetic society at all, let alone an adjudicator.

However, Hong Tao was still very happy, as the saying goes, the east is not bright, the west is bright, although he did not ask for the information of the adjudicator, he got an unexpected surprise. It turns out that you can go from Yining to southern Xinjiang without detouring to Qiuzi or Licheng, and there is a small road that can go directly to WS County at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains.

Fang Wenlin didn't deliberately show the way, he just heard that Hong Tao went to Licheng to pan for gold, and the journey was far away, and it would take a month to come and go, so he casually revealed the past things he heard at the base talk about.

When the Yining base was first established, they also gradually cleaned up the surrounding towns like a rescue team, looking for more survivors and collecting daily necessities.

At that time, the person who led the team out to search for it was a Kazakh survivor, that is, Kamila's father. He was born in Yining, where he went to school, worked and lived, and was very familiar with the landscape around the Ili River Valley.

At the same time, he was also a geologist, and because of his work, he followed the exploration team around for many years, and knew many paths that even herders rarely touched.

In order to get in touch with the survivors in southern Xinjiang, he led three people over the mountains and mountains and successfully reached WS County through this path. Half a year later, he took hundreds of survivors gathered from Baishuicheng, Kungang, Wensu, and Qiuci to return to Yining along the southern section of the Duku Highway over the Tianshan Mountains again.

It is precisely because of this feat that Camilla's father has a high reputation in the Yining base. Fang Wenlin and he are chess friends, both love to play chess, and soon became friends.

During a small talk about chess, Fang Wenlin asked Camilla's father what kind of road would be so difficult, and went to four people, but all three died on the road.

Camilla's father said that this road is called the Schattor Ancient Road, and it can reach the broken city of WS County after climbing the Tianshan Mountains from the Schatthead Ranch in ZS County. The reason why it is called the ancient road shows that this road is not newly opened, but should be ancient.

Yes, it has a long history and is said to be one of the most difficult ancient passages on the Silk Road. This difficulty is reflected in several aspects: first of all, it is high, climbing over the Tianshan Mountains, the altitude is close to 4000 meters, and those who are too sensitive to the alpine reaction will be brushed down directly.

The second is the changeable climate, with the high altitudes of the Tien Shan Mountains covered with thick snow all year round, and the temperature is very low at night. Starting from the foot of the mountain, it is summer when you first climb the mountain, and when you reach the mountainside, it is spring and autumn, and when you reach the top of the mountain, there will be snowflakes, and it is not warm to wear a sheepskin jacket. If the body is not too good, you can also quit if you catch a cold at every turn.

Finally, the terrain is particularly complex, with meadows, forests, canyons, rapids, and the Gobi along the way, as well as snow caps, glaciers, glaciers, and especially the glaciers full of fissures are the most dangerous. Two of the three companions who crossed with Camilla's father at that time stumbled and fell into the bottomless ice crevasse, and their bones were gone.

But the most troublesome thing is not the above three points, because there are many canyons, rapids and glaciers on this road, so no means of transportation can help except walking on two legs, including horses.

In other words, in the process of crossing mountains and mountains for nearly 100 kilometers, all food, clothing, and equipment had to be carried on their own backs. Think about it, just going up and down at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, you have to walk for several days with weights, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Having said all these hardships and obstacles, is there any benefit? There must be, otherwise why would Hong Tao be stealing fun. There is only one good thing about this ancient road, and that is the proximity!

Drive from Yining to WS County, catch up with the opening of Duku Highway in summer and autumn, about 900 kilometers away; In winter and spring, you will have to bypass Licheng, and the distance will increase to more than 1,200 kilometers. But taking the Shatthart Ancient Road, there are only 300 kilometers from Yining, of which 200 kilometers are still on the road.

If it was placed before the outbreak of zombie disease, no matter how close it was, no one except explorers would have walked this ancient road. Who wants to trek hundreds of kilometers on foot with a baggage on their backs, and take great risks to cross fast-flowing glaciers and climb over rugged ice crevasses, just to save a little money on fuel and highway fees?

But at this time, in addition to large survivor groups, there are still vehicles and motorcycles, and anyone who wants to go to southern Xinjiang has to have his legs, at most get a bicycle or a horse to travel. But not only do you have to pass through checkpoints, but you also have to take the risk of being robbed or even killed by homeless people.

In this comparison, the ancient hiking trail is no longer a waste in the eyes of some people, such as Hong Tao, who are willing to take risks and have the ability to take risks, and it is very valuable.

There is also a question, since it is a historic ancient road, it must not only be Camilla's father who knows, there are many locals and even survivors from ZS County in the Yining base, will they not know? If they knew, wouldn't the Redeemer have set up a card on the road to prevent the rebels from sneaking in and wreaking havoc from now on?

In fact, Hong Tao also raised this very key question, if the redeemer has controlled or blocked the Shattor Ancient Road, it will really have no practical meaning for himself. If you take such a big risk and die for your life, you still can't escape the surveillance of others, so why bother.

But Fang Wenlin's answer rekindled Hong Tao's desire to explore, and the redeemer was stunned that he didn't block this ancient road! It's not that they're stupid, it's not that they're unheard, it's that there's no need to worry about it at all, the Schattarch has long been blocked by nature.

Earthquake, the epicenter of the earthquake a few years ago was at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and then this ancient road was blocked by a landslide. In fact, for so many years, the rebels have not infiltrated from the direction of the Shatt Ancient Road once, and the Redeemers have only set up two checkpoints on the mountain road leading from Yining to Zhaosu and Bagua City.
