Looking back, it was Anda who was talking, and she said to us with two hiking bags, "All set, let's go!" ”

In September, Mt. Fuji is closed to the public, as the climate at the summit has begun to change, and climbers are exposed to many unknown dangers.

The islands of Japan face many extreme weather events throughout the year: hurricanes, torrential rains or heavy snowfall, so the practice of mountainous areas is also widely accepted by the Japanese people. But every year, there are still many adventurers who try their best to enter Mt. Fuji in winter, challenge the extreme weather, and challenge themselves...

Speaking of which, I have to say that Japan's professional search teams are more detailed than our country's, and they have floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards... and other professional search teams, and they are not mixed with each other and do not conflict.

We listened to Anda in the car and thought about our identity, and suddenly felt extremely embarrassed. We hung the sheep's heads of the search team and made dog meat to find the Ten Thousand Life Stones...

Looking at Mt. Fuji very close, it took us more than four hours to reach the foot of Mt. Fuji in response to the old adage that "looking at the mountain and running a dead horse".

Although there were many checkpoints on the road, fortunately, with Andera with us, our entry into the mountain was smooth.

I grew up in the mountains, so I didn't have any special feelings about the rolling mountains and scenery outside the window, and I made up for sleep in the car with my head bored. I slept in a daze for I don't know how long, and the car stopped.

I got out of the car and found out that it turned out to be a resort, and several hot spring pools were bubbling with white mist. I glanced at my watch, and it was eleven o'clock in the morning, but it looked so gloomy that it seemed like it was getting dark.

We followed Anda around several of the outer hot springs to another secluded spot, where we found a large fossil pit on the other side.

"The oldest fossils of the Mount Fuji volcanic dragons we encountered in Siberia were found here!" Anda said, pointing to the fossil pit.

"Your skeletal specimens are so realistic!" Jeonko said as he looked at the volcanic dragon specimen on the side.

"We didn't do it, it's fossils, we just assembled them!" Anda explained.

"Judging from the rock specimens, the history of volcanosaurs can be traced back to the Cretaceous era, and it is strange that they have survived to the present day through some special survival techniques!" Ah Fang said on the side.

"Perhaps as early as 65 million years ago, Wansheng Stone had already reached the earth!" "Or can we boldly speculate whether the arrival of the Wansheng Stone contributed to the extinction of the dinosaurs!" ”

"How can it be so mysterious?" I don't quite believe in Quanzi's unreliable inference. "Let's go, I think there's something else in there!"

Anda walked ahead and led us through the fossil pit to another gallery, "Guess what's that?" ”

In the huge exhibition hall was a huge and terrifying skeleton of a giant beast, which seemed to be at least five meters tall and at least twenty meters long; The claws on its limbs are a meter in diameter, its tail is long with sharp hooks, and in the middle of its body is a pair of extremely huge wings.

"Is this a unicorn or a dragon?" Jeonko asked.

"Vulture!" Ai Qin said with some surprise.

"Yes, it's the Vulture!" Anda said, "You should be familiar with that. ”

"What, did Miss Liu take us here to make up for our homework?" Aichen said.

"Miss Aichen, why can't I understand this?"

"Don't you know that the opponent we are about to face on this voyage is this vulture?" Aichen asked rhetorically.

"I know, but don't all four of you have the ability to subdue the dragon vulture? Why do your homework? Anda asked rhetorically.

I heard what Anda was saying, and hurriedly interjected, "Alas, this thing was the same as Quanzi at first sight, and I thought it was the legendary beast unicorn in the book, but it turned out to be a dragon vulture, ah, it turns out that this dragon vulture is also from this Mount Fuji!" ”

"Tokuko, what you said is not accurate, this dragon vulture is not from Mt. Fuji, but we salvaged it from a nearby hot spring pool!" Anda didn't think much of it.

"Ahh Ah Fang asked, "What about this magical thing?" ”

"To be precise, it was salvaged from the hot spring pool when the construction of the hot spring mountain resort here began, and Nakata Yoshimoto knows this very well." Anda said.

Tasha Su had never been in contact with a dragon vulture, and she was greatly interested in the skeleton of the giant beast in front of her, "I can't imagine that there really is such a magical creature on Earth!" ”

Ai Qin glanced at me at the moment, and I knew what she was wondering about. In fact, I'm also wondering, is there a recognition gene in the DNA of a monster like the dragon vulture, can the four of us sit back and relax with this?

Can dragon vultures really be kept in captivity? We don't know how the dragon vulture that the Chen family hid in Chenjiabao was obtained and how it was tamed. The terrible thing now is that all the outsiders think that we have mastered the method of taming the dragon vulture, but in fact the four of us have only one innate fear of the dragon vulture itself.

"Nakata Yoshimoto spent a lot of money to finally own Mt. Fuji, his goal is not only these two monster specimens, your brother is deliberately letting us come here, it must not be for us to see these scenes in front of us!" I asked.

Anda pulled me aside and said to me, "Actually, my brother has a selfish purpose in arranging for us to come here this time! As you know, in order to reach the deepest part of the trench, you must pass the vulture! The eagle's lair is there, and outsiders will never be able to enter it. ”

"Is it only the Chen family that has successfully tamed the dragon vulture now?" I asked.

"Yes, the Chen family was the first to discover the secret of the dragon vulture, and they were also the first to start the dragon vulture research, maybe they knew for a long time that the final destination of the Wansheng Stone was the Mariana Trench!" Anda said.

"The Chen family may have only mastered the method of captivity, but is this method effective for the primitive species on the seabed?" I asked.

"According to the current data and information, the dragon vulture should be the guardian of the Wansheng Stone, and it may be an alien high-IQ creature, we can only gamble now, otherwise the last level will never be able to be overcome!" Anda said.

I was lost in thought, and Anda was right. But I know that the four of us don't have enough ability to tame the dragon vulture at the moment, or that the four of us have not inherited the so-called ability to tame the dragon vulture from our fathers, and if we really go to the depths of the sea, the four of us will probably be sent to death.

As we walked, this room looked like a vulture research room, and it seemed that Nakata Ryomoto had put a lot of effort into it.

On one side are the skeleton specimens, muscle tissue, reduced models, and even the evolution of the vulture.

Jeonko pointed to a genetic map and asked, "Is it viviparous?" ”

"That's right, they're mammals, like cetaceans!" And many of the characteristics of the dragon vulture are also the same as the cetacean, relying on sound positioning, there are huge air holes, the only difference with the whale is that the whale eyes are small, and the dragon vulture eyes are particularly large..."

I subconsciously glanced at the model of the dragon vulture, and the two protruding eyes glowed green, which immediately reminded me of the green lantern that followed us in Kunlun Mountain.

"Have you ever wondered if it could be an old whale?" Fong asked.

"It shouldn't be, according to research, cetaceans evolved from ancient ungulate species, but the dragon vulture has wings, and its wings are not completely useless!" "We looked up a lot of data and found that in the early days dragon vultures could fly at low altitudes, so there are still surviving dragon vultures in the depths of many of the freshwater lakes inland. ”

"This doesn't make sense, according to what you said, it can fly in the early days, and its appearance is very similar to the unicorn and dragon in myths and legends, why can't you find any information at all or there are no legends about it among the folks!" Aichen said.

"Maybe the legend of the dragon and the unicorn came from it!" Tasha Su said.

The girls were arguing, and I vaguely realized that Anda had brought us here for the sake of the vultures, and that there must be other secrets here.

"Anda, you used to have a lab here, right?" I asked.

"That's right!" "This is Yoshimoto Nakata's laboratory. ”

"We are free to visit, anyway, we are all here and idle!" I said.

"Ah, this—" Anda was visibly embarrassed, "we're going to climb the mountain later!" ”

"Alright, don't hide it, tell us the real purpose of bringing us here!" I said.

"It seems that I can't hide anything from you!" Anda said.

Anderda led us out the door through the previous hot spring pool to the front of an old courtyard.

Judging from the traces of time, this courtyard must have been abandoned for many years, but the lock on the door is still brand new. Surrounded by a rusty steel fence covered with high-pressure barbed wire, the courtyard is at odds with the surrounding hot springs.

"Isn't there Sadako living in here?" Quanzi joked, "It looks inexplicably terrifying!" ”

"That's what I'm bringing you here for." Anda pointed to the courtyard and said, "This used to be Nakata's house, but then their entire family died overnight for no apparent reason, and he was the only one left..."

"What, do you think there's something wrong with this?" Aichen asked.

"I just listened to my brother and he said that Nakata Yoshimoto is not a normal person!" Anda said.

"I said, Miss Ann, we're busy! I don't have time to solve this suspenseful and terrifying case for you on Mt. Fuji. Quanzi said.

"Not a normal person?" I speculated over and over again.

"Does figuring out this issue have anything to do with our trip to sea?" Fong asked.

"Of course, do you want to go to sea with an alien?" Anda said.

"What?" All five of us were taken aback.

"Yes, my brother and I both think that Nakata Ryomoto is no longer a normal human being, and it is very likely that he has secretly modified his genes for himself!" Anda said.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Remember that long-lived wolf?" Anda asked.

"Of course I remember, and I remember it vividly! Was that horse eaten by a monster at the bottom of the sea? Quanzi said.

"Have you ever thought about it, why did the monster at the bottom of the sea waste so much strength just to eat that bite of meat?" Anda asked.

"Anda, what the hell are you going to say, I'm all stunned by you!" Tasha Su said.

"The immortal ...... in Journey to the West!" Anda nodded at me.

"That wolf is like Tang monk meat, isn't it?" I said.

"That's right, that wolf is a walking stone of life." Anda said. "As long as you crack it, it is equivalent to cracking the genetic code of immortality!"
