Chapter 745: Ruins

The clouds were bleak overhead, and the valley was filled with thick fog.

But Gao Yan and Hu Tao were not nervous at all, they took out the medicinal herbs they had prepared in advance, and when they packed their luggage, I thought they were going to treat everyone.

I didn't expect them to take out the medicinal powder at this time, and I said why they wanted to grind all the prepared medicinal materials into powder, it turned out that there was a special purpose.

At the top of the mountain, you can still feel a strong wind passing by, but when you go down to the bottom of the valley, there is not even a trace of wind, and you can't feel the air flow at all.

Gao Yan and Hu Tao carried a bag of medicinal powder on their backs, scattering as they walked, and the two of them spread out a track, and the width in the middle could accommodate four people in parallel.

There is no grass in the canyon, but the ground is relatively flat, so we can see the white bones all over the ground, like decorations on the ground, there are cows, sheep, animals, and people.

"I said, this place is so horrible, why hasn't anyone reported it before? Those who like adventure hunting will love this place. I stepped over the bones on the ground and asked Gao Yan.

"You also see the danger here, of course, the less people know about it, the better, do you want to make a big report, let people die? This place was originally a forbidden area, and there were warning signs at the bottom of the mountain, so it turned out that someone was watching. Gao Yan said, pausing her movements, and motioning for me to look at a skeleton at her feet.

The clothes on the bones are in tatters, only the backpack behind him is still intact, but looking at the style of the backpack, it should be an old model from decades ago.

"In '78, after the last members of the expedition disappeared here, a sign was erected at the foot of the mountain, prohibiting herders and tourists from climbing the mountain." Gao Yan pointed to the mountain behind us and said.

"How did you find a place like this? It's incredible. I sighed.

"The world is so big, I look everywhere all day." Gao Yan replied with a smile, and then continued to scatter the powder.

Just over a third of the way we found two fresh corpses, their deaths were horrifying, their exposed skin was full of small black spots, which would definitely drive people with dense phobia crazy.

In fact, those small black dots are very small holes, and when we approached the corpse, there were originally black, hair-like thin threads drilling out of the holes, but when Gao Yan's medicinal powder dispersed, those black lines immediately retracted into the corpse.

It was like a corpse with black hair, but we all knew that it couldn't be fungi, they could stretch and contract, and it was probably a bug we hadn't seen before.

"Can this powder kill them?" Gu Yu asked.

"No, but it can restrict their movement and keep them from approaching." Hu Tao explained.

"What if it rains?" Gu Yu asked again.

"There was only fog in the canyon, no rain, at least not a single rain during the time we lived here." Hu Tao has always felt guilty because he was deceived by Gao Yan to come to the two-person world in the last time and space, so when everyone is together, he rarely speaks.

Although Gao Yan took all the responsibility and said that she forced him to come, Hu Tao is an adult, and it is not impossible for him to escape from here if he wants to subdue Gao Yan.

It's just that he was reluctant to hurt Gao Yan, and between his lover and his friends, he chose his lover.

He felt that he had betrayed everyone, and he always had a pimple in his heart, which Gao Yan told me, hoping that Gu Yu and I could have a good talk with him.

In the days when Long Tao and I left, Gu Yu talked to Hu Tao, I don't know what they talked about, but I feel that Hu Tao still follows his taciturn route, which is not as clear as before.

None of us blame him, the problem is that he can't get past his own level, and maybe it will take him some time to figure it out.

Judging by the number of cars parked at the foot of the mountain, the front team had about forty people, but in the first half of the canyon we saw twelve corpses.

This shows that they were unprepared for the situation in the canyon, and they only knew how to flee in a hurry when they encountered an accident, and the corpses were all backpacks, as well as climbing ropes and pickaxes.

After losing twelve players, the front team learned to fight back, setting on fire fabric, or anything that could burn, against the thin black thread.

We saw a lot of charred objects on the ground, but no more bodies, and of course, the bloody severed hand was not counted, it was only a stump.

In the second half of the journey, Gao Yan asked us to put on gas masks, and she and Hu Tao also stopped powdering medicine.

On this journey, we saw ten more corpses, their faces were black, even their eyeballs and tongues were black.

Similarly, no one had touched their equipment, and things like flashlights and miner's lamps had been thrown down.

When I came to the 'door' that Gao Yan said, I finally saw the one-meter-wide gap in the mountains.

Above the gap, an innumerable number of twine-like things hung down, just hanging over the person's head.

"This is a plant?" I asked, looking at the hemp rope.

"Yes, but you can also call it a hanging rope." Gao Yan said with a smile.

After she finished speaking, she took out two stones from her backpack, Hu Tao did the same as her, and they divided the stones between me and Gu Yu.

"On the head." Gao Yan was the first to demonstrate, she put an apple-sized stone on top of her head and walked into the mountain pass first.

Gu Yu and I also imitated her movements, carrying the stones into the passage, and did not encounter the corpses of the group in front of us on the way.

"How did they get through this place, okay?" I muttered in confusion.

"What are you doing, look at it." Gao Yan walked in front of me and said without looking back.

I looked up and sure enough, I saw a pair of feet in the heights, about three meters above my head.

The foot was still shaking slightly, and I exclaimed in surprise, "He's still alive!" ”

Gao Yan turned around and looked at the feet coldly: "It's dead, it's the movement made by that thing sucking flesh and blood in his body." ”

Sucking flesh and blood, but not a drop of blood leaked, it was not very comfortable to think about the picture, I took two quick steps and stopped looking up at it.

The sun was shining at the end of the mountain pass, and when we stepped out of the pass, we saw a completely different world.

Blue skies and white clouds, birds singing and flowers, and herds of horses and cows grazing on the grassland.

Strictly speaking, this is not the most beautiful compared to the beautiful scenery of the Tibetan area recorded by the photographer with his camera, and the strange thing is that we know that the other end of the two mountains is not a grassland at all.

It should be another snow-capped mountain, with no wide area in between, let alone lakes and streams.

"You know what I mean." Gao Yan said.

"You're saying that the 'door' is really the door, the door to another dimension." Gu Yu looked at the scene in front of him and was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's another world, but there's more to it than that." Gao Yan led us on.

Passing through a sea of flowers and around a lake, she leads us into a forest where the trees are tall and dense.

Interestingly, there is also a passage in the forest, and this white-stone paved road is like a dividing line, and all the trees and flowers avoid it.

When we saw footprints on the white stone road, we knew that the people from the previous team had already walked past.

"Judging by the number of footprints, there should be sixteen people." Hu Tao squatted down to check the footprints, we didn't rush forward, let him take a closer look.

"Hmph, I don't know how many will make it to the end." Gao Yan suddenly sneered.

This is another world hidden in the snowy mountains, and the canyon passage alone is full of dangers, and the white stone road looks like it is artificially paved, and if the people who built this place don't want outsiders to enter, there should be traps and other arrangements ahead.

Sure enough, just five minutes forward, there were blood stains on the white stone road.

It's just that there are only blood stains, no corpses, and Gao Yan didn't take any precautions this time.

"There are other creatures here, there are wise ones?" I didn't want to use my spiritual power, but out of curiosity, I still used my spiritual power to explore this magical land, and found that there were intelligent life forms here, and the volume was quite huge.

"Yes, don't worry, they won't come near us." Gao Yan picked out a necklace from her collar, and the pendant of the necklace was a strange symbol made of bone.

Apparently this is an amulet, and those large creatures won't attack us if they have it.

After another five minutes, a dense burst of gunfire rang out in the forest, accompanied by the screams and angry roars of humans.

The white stone road is like a corridor, and there are dense and tall trees in the middle, so we can't see what is happening in front of us.

"Stop, wait." Gao Yan nodded, and when she stopped, we stopped.

"Why don't you help?" I thought that after all, it was a human being in front of me, and everyone came in to take refuge, so since they just happened to bump into it, it was better to help out.

"Do you know why they're here?" Gao Yan asked with a heavy face.

"Take refuge." I say.

"Of those corpses we saw all the way, is there an old and weak woman and child?" Gao Yan asked.

I thought about it, and there really wasn't, the corpses were all young and strong men.

To say that dozens of people are all lone refugees, and they are uniformly dressed and equipped, it is indeed a bit mysterious.

"They must have come in looking for that." Gao Yan said coldly.

Just as we were talking, there was a loud bang in front of us, and then we were almost shaken by the shaking of the ground.

Did the gang detonate a mine or a bomb?

Listening to the shouts, there were still a few people alive, and they used their companions as bait, tied explosives to the bait, and when the bait was swallowed alive, they detonated the explosives.

We weren't too far apart, so we could hear it clearly, they were knocking their companions unconscious, and then sending them into the beast's mouth.

Originally, I wanted to help them, but now that I heard them discuss the 'battle plan' just now, the friendship in my heart immediately dissipated.

And listening to what they mean, it is indeed like what Gao Yan said, they are here to find something, and they also say that if they get it, they will be invincible in the world, and they can be heroes in troubled times.

Gao Yan and Hu Tao have lived here for so long, and they are not invincible in the world, I guess these people must believe in some rumors.

As we walked through the forest, my jaw was almost dropped by the sight of a palace made of blue and white jade, decorated with gold trim and white crystal tiles.

The white jade used here is not white marble, but genuine white jade, Gao Yan said, the lamps in the palace are made of various colored gemstones.

"What the hell is this?" I never believed that there was such a lavish palace in the world, it was like an ancient Tibetan palace with a little bit of scale.

"Shambhala." Gao Yan's eyes were empty, as if she was looking elsewhere through the palace.

"Isn't that Elysium?" I've heard a little bit about the legends of Tibetan areas.

"Yes, it's considered a Buddhist imaginary paradise, but there's really no Buddha here." Gao Yan retracted her gaze and said, "This is a ruin." ”
