Chapter 152: The Missing Louis and Joseph
Song Shaofeng smiled: "Originally, I didn't say it wasn't." ”
Zhang Yuan put away his ID card, pulled his backpack, and asked Song Shaofeng, "Go directly?" Or go through the program? ”
"Procedure:." Song Shaofeng scolded and pointed upstairs: "Stay first and see if they come back tonight." ”
"If you want the master to say, catch them and beat them hard, and say whatever you ask."
Although he said that, Zhang Yuan still went upstairs.
Song Shaofeng and Lin Ling also followed the two into the room.
Song Shaofeng stretched out his hand towards Zhang Yuan and said, "Show me the notes first." ”
Zhang Yuan pulled out his backpack, reached in and took out his notebook, and handed it to Song Shaofeng.
Song Shaofeng nodded, sat on the edge of the bed, and began to look through his notes.
After reading it for several minutes, Song Shaofeng finished reading the notes and handed them to Lin Ling.
Lin Ling didn't look at it as carefully as Song Shaofeng, but he flipped through it casually and handed it back to Zhang Yuan.
Song Shaofeng saw that Lin Ling had finished reading it, and then said: "It seems that Liu Nian and Joseph have indeed known each other for a long time. ”
"I told you everything, and you still don't believe me?" Zhang Yuan pursed his lips and shook the note in front of Song Shaofeng, and then took it back into his bag.
Song Shaofeng chuckled and shook his head, not arguing with Zhang Yuan.
"Not long after we set off, the two of us had just entered the mountain." Song Shaofeng explained the current situation.
"Basically, I go into the mountains every morning and come back in the evening, looking like I'm looking for something, and today is no exception."
"But I haven't heard of any ruins in Zhang Daoling." Zhang Yuan shook his head and said, "Although it is said that Zhang Daoling is cultivating in this Huming Mountain, since the Heavenly Master Dao Ancestral Court moved to Longhu Mountain, even the sacrifices have stopped. ”
"Maybe there was some secret base left behind and then lost?" Zhao Xuan speculated: "Just like the one in your Dragon Tiger Mountain." ”
"It's possible. But Zhang Daoling has been nearly 2,000 years now, and even if there are any ruins, bamboo slips or paper books like "Xuanyi Jing" cannot be preserved. ”
Zhang Yuan scratched his head suspiciously, and said, "So I don't really understand, Liu Nian, as well as Louis and Joseph, why can they be sure that the "Xuanyi Sutra" can be found here?" ”
"An anomaly, perhaps?" Zhao Xuan looked at Zhang Yuan.
"Wow!" Zhang Yuan gave Zhao Xuan a thumbs up and said, "Only you, the person who encounters abnormalities when you go out, dare to compare abnormalities to Chinese cabbage." ”
After listening to this, Song Shaofeng said with a smile: "Whether it is abnormal or not, anyway, when Louis and Joseph come back tonight, we will look at the situation, whether to ask them directly, or follow them." ”
"You have to track it." Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and said, "This kind of work is the best for the master." ”
"Hmph." Lin Ling snorted coldly and walked out of the room.
"She understands this?" It wasn't until the sound of the door closing outside the corridor that Zhang Yuan dared to ask.
"Rest." Song Shaofeng stood up, glared at Zhang Yuan, and said, "I will inform you if there is news." ”
The rest of the day was spent waiting.
Song Shaofeng's tablet had already been connected to the local monitoring system, and if the two appeared, they would naturally be notified.
waited until early the next morning before Song Shaofeng called them to get up early and prepare to leave.
The two packed up their things and walked out of the room, Song Shaofeng said with a serious face while motioning for them to go: "The two didn't come back yesterday. ”
"Found a place?" Zhang Yuan's face was overjoyed.
"I don't know." Song Shaofeng shook his head and said, "But they didn't carry overnight equipment when they went out, at least they had an accident." ”
"What? Are we still a rescue team? Zhang Yuan pursed his lips disdainfully.
"Alright, let's go." Song Shaofeng interrupted Zhang Yuan's words with a wave of his hand.
After having a casual breakfast downstairs, the four of them drove to the main gate of Heming Mountain.
Now all parts of the country are vigorously developing tourism, and Heming Mountain is no exception, and has long been developed into a scenic spot.
Several people put the car in the parking lot of the scenic spot, took their documents, and entered the mountain from the staff passage.
Zhang Yuan and the others only brought some clothes with them, and did not take the equipment for mountaineering.
However, Song Shaofeng had expected it and helped them prepare some mountaineering supplies.
However, because Zhao Xuan's injury was not healed, all the bags fell on Zhang Yuan's body.
"Master is injured!" Zhang Yuan angrily pointed to the bandage on his head.
"It doesn't affect the action." Song Shaofeng shrugged.
Several people did not enter the mountain from the hiking trail in the scenic area, but made a detour and went up the mountain from a small road on the side.
Although Song Shaofeng and the others did not follow Louis and Joseph a few days ago, they still knew the basic situation.
Louis and Joseph, also walking on the hiking trail for a short time, turned a corner and went around to the side.
Now the path that Song Shaofeng took them on is a shortcut.
After walking for more than an hour, they were already on the path that Joseph and Louis had passed.
Continuing upward, after walking for more than an hour, the woods gradually became denser, and the path was hidden in the bushes, and it was impossible to see clearly.
However, the dense woods also made the weather not so hot, but it made the journey much more comfortable.
Lin Ling walked in the front, walking all the way, observing the situation of the bushes in front of him all the way.
In the last few days ahead, there have indeed been traces of people passing by, proving that they have not gone wrong.
The four of them walked out for about ten kilometers, and the path was completely hidden in the bushes and could no longer be found.
"Take a break." Song Shaofeng saw that several people had stopped, so he asked, "Lin Ling, can you still find the way?" ”
"Yes."
"That'll do, we'll continue."
Zhao Xuan took out a bottle of water from the backpack Zhang Yuan was carrying, drank a few sips, and put it back into the backpack.
"Hey! Outrageous, huh? Zhang Yuan shook his backpack and said, "It's over after drinking, and put it back?" ”
Zhao Xuan grinned: "I didn't want to drink it, I wanted to help you lose weight." ”
"If it weren't for the good temper of the master, he would have beaten you a long time ago."
A few people rested for a while and continued to set off.
But after walking for a long time, the speed slowed down, because Lin Ling had been looking for traces for a long time.
"Two paths." After walking for a while, Lin Ling frowned and pointed ahead: "I can't see the order." ”
"In other words, they started from this place, and they couldn't get the direction and started looking?" Zhang Yuan pulled the backpack behind his back, bypassed Lin Ling, and walked in the direction of her finger: "Just take one of them." ”
The others didn't have a better way, so they naturally followed Zhang Yuan's direction and walked forward.
After walking out along the road for another half an hour, everyone found a ruin in the dense forest.
It is not accurate to say that it is ruins, it should be said that it is ruins.
If it weren't for Zhang Yuan's keen observation of these things, maybe they would have missed it.
Zhang Yuan put the bag on the ground and searched around, while the others stood aside.
After turning around, Zhang Yuan walked back and said, "There are about a thousand square meters, which should be the site of a certain building complex." ”
"One thousand square meters, not big?" Song Shaofeng imagined it for a moment and asked, "Can you see when it is?" ”
"I can't see it, only some foundation sites are left, and we have to rely on geological testing." Zhang Yuan shook his head.
"Joseph, is this what they are looking for?" Zhao Xuan pointed to a small dirt bag that could barely be seen on the ground, and asked, "Where Zhang Daoling is practicing?" ”
"Not really. Although Zhang Daoling was posthumously crowned as a celestial master, at that time, he was also influential, and this place was too small. ”
Zhang Yuan crossed his waist, looked at the surrounding terrain, and continued: "And the feng shui here is not good. ”
"Why are you still involved in feng shui?" Zhao Xuan has experienced several incidents and knows that this thing is more fake than real.
"It doesn't matter if I believe it or not, but Zhang Tianshi believes it." Zhang Yuan explained with disdain in his eyes.
Song Shaofeng turned his head and asked Lin Ling, who was looking around: "Lin Ling, is there any trace in the future?" ”
Lin Ling raised his hand and continued to search for a while before turning around and saying, "No, it's over here." ”
"Oh?" Song Shaofeng raised his eyebrows and said to himself, "They can also tell that it's not here?" It's not easy. ”
"Blind, huh?" Zhang Yuan said disdainfully: "I don't believe that these white barbarians can understand this." ”
"It doesn't matter if they understand it or not, but Liu Nian understands." Zhao Xuan changed his words and returned Zhang Yuan's words to him.
"Uncle, it's not over?" Zhang Yuan glared at Zhao Xuan.
"Let's go, there's still a way." Song Shaofeng smiled and waved his hand at the two living treasures who were holding bandages and still fighting their mouths.
The few people didn't find a clue, so they had to go back the same way, came to the fork in the road, and continued to walk on the other side.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Lin Ling found a fork in the road again.
Then, at the end of the fork in the road, I found a relic of similar size to the previous ruin.
After searching, there was no trace of moving forward, and several people retreated again.
The third time, it was still the same, a similar fork in the road, a similar ruins!
"Something is wrong." After Zhang Yuan finished searching the third ruin, he frowned and said, "The three ruins are almost identical in size and shape. ”
"Illusion!?" Zhao Xuan hated such things as illusions, and this was the first thing that came to mind.
Song Shaofeng pulled down his backpack, opened the tablet he was carrying, operated it, and marked their route of action on a topographic map, and marked the location of the ruins.
Turning the tablet over and showing it to a few people, Song Shaofeng shook his head and said, "No." The positioning shows that we are indeed moving forward. ”
"Hiss~" Zhang Yuan took a breath and said to Song Shaofeng: "Remove the route and enlarge the map." ”
Song Shaofeng flipped over the tablet, removed the route of action as he said, enlarged the map a little more, and handed it to Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan looked at it carefully, drew a circle on the map, and said, "Don't follow, go here directly." ”
Song Shaofeng did not question Zhang Yuan, adjusted it on the tablet, called up the map, and no longer continued to follow the traces, but walked straight towards the position indicated by Zhang Yuan.
After walking for half an hour, several people came to the location indicated by Zhang Yuan.
Another relic.
"Lin Ling, go and see, if there is any trace of anyone."
Lin Ling went around and came back and said, "Yes, it's the same road." ”
Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand towards Song Shaofeng: "Bring up the picture just now and give me the tablet." ”
Song Shaofeng took out the tablet and operated it a few times, and handed it to Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan drew a few circles on the tablet and showed it to everyone: "Look what this is." ”
Zhao Xuan looked over and saw that seven circles were drawn on the tablet with red marks, spoon-shaped.
