After returning to the headquarters from Maoershan, after a short rest and injury treatment, the next few days were very comfortable, and the organization did not let us train for an unprecedented few days off.

It's a pity that the headquarters is an airtight existence, and we have no contact with the outside world, so for us, the holiday is just wandering around the camp and conditioning our bodies in the dormitory.

Although there are still many things in the tunnel that bother me, such as the stone that the old five brought back, and the Wansheng stone and the group of people who suddenly appeared in the hotel...... When he returned to headquarters, he found that he had no courage or motivation to pursue those secrets.

Except for the fifth one, the four of us get together all the time, and the fifth has been gone since he came back, but as the captain he has something to face, and we don't want to ask too much.

On this day, I was bored playing chess with Quanzi in the dormitory, I looked at the word "handsome" in the chessboard, and suddenly became interested in the whole mysterious search team, what kind of organization is this organization? Why was I chosen to be here? Thus derives the deep meaning of a Buddhist family: Who am I? Where do I come from and where am I going?

"Quanzi, how did you get chosen?"

Quanzi shook his head and had no clue about it, and Quanzi replied, "I can only say that I was also transferred here for some reason, and I am a person who will be discharged from the army in half a year." ”

"Isn't there something amazing about us?" I guessed.

"I don't know what you're capable of. But I know you're going to burp in this game, look at this, it's going to-" Quanzi jumped and sneaked up.

"Hey, you don't talk about Wu Deha, you actually stole me!" I was about to admit defeat when Ah Fang knocked on the door and said, "Guys, come on a mission!" ”

We arrived at the tactics room, and the fifth had already arrived first.

He beckoned us to sit down, opened the slide and said, "This mission is in the treacherous Grand Canyon, a famous tourist attraction in Midtown, and you know that this place is not a good place when you hear the name." ”

"Grand Canyon, it seems that our universal car will not be used this time!" Fong quipped.

"What's the mission this time?" I saw that the slide was a promotional image of the treacherous Grand Canyon, and I didn't ask anything else.

"The specific task is not very clear, only that it is an urgent task." Lao Wu shook his head and said, "You'll know when you arrive, anyway, it's not to deal with those big snakes and big spiders!" ”

Only we were allowed to bring our gear with us. Out of the camp, the waiting plane took us all the way to the small airport near the scenic spot, and then transferred to the car directly to the gate of the scenic spot.

When we arrived at the destination, we were greeted by a person in charge of the local tourist scenic spot, and after greeting us one by one, let me call him Mr. Wang.

We generally don't tell others our true identity, the fifth said to Mr. Wang that we are the special operations team sent from above, that Mr. Wang is also an understanding person, immediately said that he understands, and then took us to the reception room of the scenic spot.

There was a person sitting in the reception room, and Mr. Wang introduced us again, "This is a local tour guide who specializes in receiving individual tourists, because his skin is relatively dark, the people around him call him Mr. Xiao Hei, in fact, his real name is not called this, but after a long time and he himself doesn't mind, others have forgotten his real name." ”

We nodded our heads one by one.

In the reception room of the scenic spot, Mr. Wang first introduced the general situation to us:

It turned out that Mr. Xiao Hei received a small tour group from Nancheng a few days ago, a total of ten people. They claim to be outdoor enthusiasts and have come to hike through the Grand Canyon and collect samples from the primeval forest at the other end of the canyon.

Due to the topography of the Grand Canyon, only a small part of the current scenic area has been developed for tourism, and the deep part of the Grand Canyon and the surrounding primeval forests have not had time to be developed.

In addition, the climate here is relatively humid and hot, and the rain is abundant, and there are many poisonous snakes and beasts in the primeval forest.

The group of people obviously did their homework before coming, and asked Mr. Xiao Hei to be a tour guide, it turned out that Mr. Xiao Hei was a local mountain person, and before the scenic spot was developed, he was a famous Orion family in these ten miles and eight towns, and he knew more about the terrain around the Grand Canyon.

Later, the state strengthened gun control and the protection of wild animals and plants, coupled with the development and transformation of scenic spots here, Mr. Xiao Hei simply became a local tour guide.

Mr. Xiao Hei himself said that he was actually reluctant to bring strangers into the mountain, because the risk was very high, and if something happened, he would lose his job, not to mention that he would have to take responsibility.

But this time others didn't speak, and directly put a thick stack of money in front of him, this price is the sum of several groups of tourists, Mr. Xiao Hei for the sake of money, so he had to reluctantly make it difficult once.

Early the next morning, Mr. Xiao Hei led the group into the mountain, and the group first followed the tourist route into the depths of the Grand Canyon, and then went around the unexplored mountain road to the edge of the primeval forest. It took them a whole day on such a journey, and in the evening Mr. Hei did not dare to rush on, and after stopping and encamped on the flat part of a mountain col, he prepared to march again the next day.

But when Mr. Xiao Hei woke up the next morning, he found that something had happened.

The next morning, Mr. Black was woken up by a loud noise, and when he got out of the tent, he found that the five members of the team were looking for something.

He rubbed his still blurred eyes and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

At this point, one of the five replied, "A few of them are missing." ”

Mr. Xiao Hei was startled, and he suddenly woke up from drowsiness, "What? ”

In a panic, he ran up with a roll, and when he saw the six men and four women who came in, only four men and one woman were left, he went to the tent where those people lived to see that the people and luggage were gone.

This frightened Mr. Xiao Hei into a hurry, and he yelled at the remaining five people, "Why don't they listen to my arrangement to act privately, who is responsible for what happened in the deep mountains and old forests?" ”

One of the men replied, "Mr. guide, we don't know them at all, and when we came together in the morning and saw a few empty tents, we thought it was strange, so we started looking around." ”

"What? You don't know each other? Mr. Xiao Hei's heart suddenly cooled, and he thought secretly, "Is it that these five of them are afraid that the other five will have an accident, so they deliberately said this?" But when he thought about it carefully, when he came in yesterday, it seemed that they really didn't know each other, and they were all in groups of five or five.

The group left in front of me was very interested in the various scenery along the way, and when they got to the place they were interested in, they would choose to take a picture or something, but the other group was completely different, and they kept urging Mr. Xiao Hei to hurry, and they didn't seem to be interested in the surrounding cliff landscape at all.

But Mr. Xiao Hei still didn't give up and asked, "Then you came from Nancheng together and signed up for the group together, why didn't you know anyone along the way?" ”

The girl replied, "I'll be honest with you, we came from Island City, and we only met them when we arrived at the airport, and they claimed to be students and teachers at Southtown University. We're just buddies, we don't even know each other's names! ”

When Mr. Xiao Hei heard this, he wanted to die, and he looked around in a panic, but found no clues. At this moment, it is useless to regret it, he discussed it with the other five people, Mr. Xiao Hei was waiting for the missing five people in the same place, and the other five returned the same way, and reported the situation to the Tourist Scenic Area Management Office by the way.

The five people also realized the seriousness of the problem, and they did not dare to delay at the moment, so they had to return the same way and report the problem to Mr. Wang.

Mr. Xiao Hei waited inside for two days, but he didn't see the five people come out. Only then did they realize that they must have lost their way in the mountains, so they quickly ran out to report the situation to Mr. Wang, who reported the disappearance to the relevant superiors in accordance with the procedures for missing persons, and then we came.

After listening to Mr. Wang's words, Lao Wu asked, "To enter the primeval forest from here, you must pass through your scenic spot." ”

Mr. Wang pointed to the map of the scenic area and said, "Well, no matter where you enter, you have to pass through this Grand Canyon." ”

Lao Wu asked at this time, "Then when you enter your scenic area, don't you all register the basic information of the personnel?" ”

Mr. Wang showed a look of embarrassment, and couldn't help but say, "I'm really sorry, but I want to explain here that the management of this kind of free-moving traveler is relatively loose, and we can't register if they don't enter through our gate." Because a large part of this scenic spot has not been thoroughly developed, there are many routes into the canyon, and what we can do now is only to manage the regular tour group, which is almost impossible to manage, the key is that you don't know the scattered group, and there is no fixed route, and there is no accident insurance, and we have no profit......

The five of us suddenly felt that our heads were too big, and to find the five missing people in the 10,000 acres of primeval forest was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

It is easy for people to get lost in the primeval forest, once they enter the depths of the forest, the surrounding woods are dense, the varieties are extremely similar, and the influence of light and other influences can easily make people lose their sense of direction.

This time in the deep forest, we didn't use a lot of equipment, and the more critical problem was that we didn't know their specific location, the purpose of going in, and their respective identities. I couldn't help but prepare for the worst to find them, perhaps relying on our instincts and their luck.

And since these people were sent by the organization, it means that the forest on the other side of the Grand Canyon is by no means as peaceful and ordinary as they described.
