Chapter 783: Exploring the Cause
The sky replaced darkness as scheduled, and when the morning sun rose again in the sky, everyone broke free from their respective cultivation perceptions. The set starting plan cannot be changed, and before the batch of goods brought by the Zhengyang Sect is safely delivered, the heavy stone in everyone's heart will not be easily put down.
The neighing of mules and horses, the noise of human voices replaced the silence of the early morning, extinguishing the bonfires that had been lit during the stay. The convoy started, and Zhou Hao didn't try to save trouble this time, and sat on the car. Instead, it deliberately landed at the rear of the convoy, waiting for the convoy to pass last night's Howling Wind Ridge!
After passing through the Howling Wind Ridge again, Zhou Hao paid more and more attention to the situation in the Howling Wind Ridge, from a distance, it really seemed to be a slope, and he didn't know if it had been hit by something, resulting in a huge gap.
The surrounding mountains have been violently burned, and in some places they have almost turned into magma and cooled and solidified again. This is what Zhou Hao didn't find last night, touching the surface of these violently burned rock masses, Zhou Hao urged all his strength to tear down a piece of melted solids, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it.
There was a smell of sulfur, which was roughly the same as the smell of magma solidification, but in it, Zhou Hao did not feel the slightest strange existence. Zhou Hao didn't find any valuable clues on it, so he threw away the things in his hand.
This is probably formed by the melting of the stone, and in terms of solidity, there are not many other components in it.
There was no finding at the entrance of the Howling Wind Ridge, so Zhou Hao followed the convoy and continued to walk down, Zhou Hao found that the Howling Wind Ridge should have been hit by something, and when he walked to the deeper part of the Howling Wind Ridge, the traces of burning were obviously faded.
Zhou Hao turned his head and looked at the entrance again, he basically had a rough guess, it should be an object similar to a meteorite that hit the rocky slope, changing the original terrain and landform, so that the rocky slope has a new name.
So where did the thing that hit it go? Zhou Hao immediately came to his senses, he felt that the strange scene that made Howling Wind Ridge appear must have something to do with this impactor! Maybe this is a treasure, once in his own world, Zhou Hao has heard a lot of legends about meteorites.
Meteorites from the universe have some elements that the planet does not have, and some legends even say that these meteorites can make people try not to grow old, some can make people conjure superpowers, and some are because they invented the current high-end weapons with huge lethality.
Anyway, in the Yunyunduo version, the legends about meteorites are all divine. I didn't expect that I would encounter such a good thing when I first came to White Tiger Shenzhou. However, before he found what he speculated, Zhou Hao let himself not be happy too early.
This may have been caused again by those who invaded the Celestial Star Continent, and it is also very possible. Zhou Hao's mood has risen a lot, no wonder he has been unable to control his emotions in the past few days, it turns out that something good is coming.
Zhou Hao decided to inform the old man of his guess, two people naturally found it much faster than one person, this howling wind ridge is not big, but it is also a bit of a range to say small. No matter how slow the convoy is, Zhou Hao can't stay too deliberately, which will inevitably make people suspicious.
The two men split up and began a carpet search on the left and right sides of the convoy, and according to the traces of the burn, the edges of the two mountains are most likely the final foothold of the meteorite.
The reason why they couldn't find it at once was probably because the impact force was too great, so that the meteorite was buried in the mountain, and after a long period of natural erosion, the traces left behind were probably hidden.
However, this should not be too difficult for Zhou Hao and the old man, as a physical body cultivator, he has some control over his strength, and he can distinguish the final trend of his strength. As long as they follow the trails of the mountain, they should find what they are looking for.
It's just that there is a problem that is not easy to solve, there are many troubled times in some places in the Howling Wind Ridge, and they are all the kind of huge stones, which have been corroded by wind and rain for many years, and have already formed a thick slurry on the periphery.
If there was a meteorite among these boulders that Zhou Hao was looking for, then their workload would not be able to be completed in a short period of time. Moreover, the route of the convoy also had a serious conflict with the search direction of Zhou Hao and the two, and whether to follow or not to continue to move forward has become a big problem in front of Zhou Hao.
If they followed the convoy, it would be very easy for them to enter the White Tiger Holy City. Under the guise of transporting goods as a premise, the managers of the White Tiger Holy City will make it relatively simple to let go.
But if this is the case, Zhou Hao doesn't know when he will be able to return to the Howling Wind Ridge again, regardless of whether his guess is correct or not, Zhou Hao is a little uneasy to leave such a thing that seems to be valuable here.
He could discover the secrets here, and maybe others would find out too. Although it has existed here for a long time, people are always like this, and it naturally doesn't matter when they don't know, and once they know, they can't easily convince themselves to give up!
"Reluctantly?" The old man saw Zhou Hao stop in place, looked at the departing convoy in a daze, and knew that Zhou Hao was hesitating, so he left his area and walked towards Zhou Hao and asked.
"Yes, senior, you said that it is necessary for us to break away from the convoy of the Zhengyang Sect now, after all, the secret here is very likely to be true, I 、、、 you have any other way to enter the White Tiger Holy City?" Zhou Hao asked a little unwillingly.
"Yes, there is, but it is much more difficult to operate, and the cost is very huge!" The old man groaned a little, and then said to Zhou Hao truthfully.
"So..." Zhou Hao looked at the old man's eyes, hoping that he would be able to give him an idea.
"What are you worried about? This has just entered the territory of the White Tiger Divine Prefecture, and there is still a long way to go from the White Tiger Holy City, so you go to the elder of the Zhengyang Sect now, and say that I have something to do temporarily, leave the convoy for a while first, and if we can't catch up with the convoy within the scheduled time limit, let them not wait to enter the city directly! The old man's words meant in disguise that Zhou Hao could leave the convoy for a period of time for this reason, and the speed of the convoy was naturally not as fast as Zhou Hao's full rush, as long as they caught up with the convoy before the convoy entered the White Tiger Holy City, everything would be solved!
"yes, I didn't think of that. Hehe, in the end, ginger is still old and spicy! Admire and admire, then I'll go now! Saying that, Zhou Hao hurriedly slapped the old man on the back, and quickly caught up with the convoy in front!
