Chapter 50: Desert Survival (37)
Seeing that everyone looked puzzled, Chu Yunyun said, "Let's go to the bottom of the cliff to find someone." ”
"Looking for someone?" You Min asked, even if he didn't die at the time, but after so many years......
"Well, if you live to see people, you have to see corpses when you die. All we have to think about now is how to get down to the bottom of the cliff safely. Chu Yunyun looked at Yan Jingxing, "With what you know about your father, is he the one who can die so easily?"
Yan Jingxing didn't want to believe it, no matter whether he was alive or dead, he was going to the bottom of the cliff after all, and he didn't want to learn from Chu Zhe to build a well-dressed mound.
After Zhen Yan and the others said goodbye, everyone discussed it, and there was a little disagreement, Chu Yunyun said: "Anyway, my father's life experience is there, and it won't change because we found it late." For now, the plan is to transfer all the manpower back and go to Zhuqingcheng to find Uncle Yan together. ”
"I will send the people scattered everywhere to Zhuqingcheng first, and the people in Yuandu will continue to investigate the affairs of your parents. Yan Jingxing said that there are dozens of people everywhere, and it is enough to go to the bottom of the cliff, and her life experience still needs to be clarified.
"All those in the Yuan capital should be withdrawn," Chu Yunyun thought for a while and said, "There is almost no information about my father's mother, it is even slimmer than when you were looking for someone eight years ago, and it is not worse than this meeting." Since Uncle Yan helped Chu Zhe, I am afraid that there are still people in Beijing who are worried about the events of the past. Your people are not safe there, so it is better to concentrate manpower to find Uncle Yan first and then think about it in the long run. ”
Yan Jingxing thought about it for a while and nodded, let's solve the matter one by one. Ordered Yan Si to contact people from all over the world, and those who were close to Zhuqingcheng went directly, and the people of Yuandu withdrew to Weizhou first. Looking at Chu Yunyun, who was discussing with everyone how to go down the cliff, he only felt warm in his heart, whether it was a living person or a corpse under the cliff, he really didn't want to leave regrets.
Zhuqingcheng belongs to the central section, there are granite landforms, the hard rock mass is lifted to form a steep and majestic mountain, the softer rock mass forms a valley, and the joints are staggered or a small basin is formed along the fault structure, so the mountains, hills and basins in this area are staggered and the terrain is complex.
After a few days of travel, he arrived in Zhuqingcheng and stayed in the house that Cao Kun had arranged a few days earlier. In the past few days, many subordinates from other places have arrived, and when Chu Yunyun arrived, they were already waiting there. These people are all former members of the Yan Pavilion, and after hearing that the pavilion master is gone, they desperately endured their grief one by one, and couldn't wait to prepare to go down the cliff.
After resting and getting everything ready, everyone went to the cliff. There are several relatively high mountains on the outskirts of Zhuqingcheng, and the terrain here is the highest, and the cliffs are steep, and there is almost nothing to climb.
When I finally went down to the bottom of the cliff, most of the time had passed. The ground below the cliffs is relatively flat, overgrown with grass and wildflowers, and there is nothing but the trees in the distance. The men searched near the bottom of the cliff first, but found no human bones, and went to the woods. There may be no human activity here all year round, the woods are very lush, and the vegetation is abundant, but fortunately, the area is not large, and there is still nothing to be found after searching the woods.
"It's starting to get dark, and it's raining in the distance. "Strictly observe the weather, those clouds are afraid that they will not dissipate in a short time.
"Let's go up first, no news is the best news now, I think the man is still alive. Yan Jingxing looked at the sky and said, he said that person could not die easily.
Chu Yunyun looked at Yan Jingxing, who was obviously relaxed, and couldn't help but laugh, knowing that his father might still be alive, and his title became "that person" again. But what he said is also right, there are no corpses and no human bones around the cliff, and there are a lot of animals, which shows that Yan's father did not die here back then. So the law of the cliff is quite accurate.
As soon as they returned to the house, it was pouring rain, accompanied by lightning and thunder, and everyone went back to rest after a busy day.
Chu Yunyun leaned on the couch and looked at the local chronicles of Zhuqingcheng, listening to the sound of raindrops falling in the courtyard, which had a bit of Jiangnan charm. "I've been reading a local chronicle for a few days, but what about it?" Yan Jingxing came in and put the umbrella away, raised his eyes to look at the people who had been nesting there for several days, and couldn't help but say helplessly.
"There's a lot of content in it," Chu Yunyun sat up and said hello, the rain has not stopped since that day, first torrential rain, then cloudy drizzle, occasionally mixed with a few heavy rains, and it has been several days without seeing the sun. As he spoke, he raised the local chronicle in his hand, "I see that there is a record in the local chronicle, and we just happened to catch up with the rainy season every year, but I am afraid that it can last for a month." ”
Yan Jingxing looked at her smug look, and finally didn't tell her that Cao Kun and the others had already found out the specific matters of the rainy season, and it was only about the time of a meal, but she was sitting on the couch holding a book and reading it for several days. "Well, Yan Shu said that it might be sunny in a few days, and then we will see if we can go down again. ”
"I flipped through the book a few times, but there was no detailed map of the place, and there were no villages around. Next time, we will prepare dry food and expand the scope of the search. "There has been no migration here, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the cliffs are even less inaccessible.
It hasn't rained since yesterday afternoon, and the sun comes out early the next morning, and the rainy season may be over. After cleaning up in the morning, Chu Yunyun went to the cliff with Yan Jingxing, Wei Lang and a dozen other people, You Min couldn't help when he went to see him last time, so he slipped away to the pharmacy early in the morning.
When they were about to reach the cliff, Yan Jingxing and the others suddenly went on guard, and Chu Yunyun also sensed that something was wrong. After the rain, the sky should have been lively, but neither people nor animals, they had not seen them since they went up the mountain, and there was not even the sound of birdsong, it was too quiet.
"Wei Lang, you take the four of you to send Miss Chu away first. As soon as Yan Jingxing finished speaking, he saw dozens of black-clothed masked people appear from the mountains and forests next to him, and gradually surrounded them, and it was too late to leave at this time. These people are not bad, and they are good at hiding, and he didn't even find out earlier.
"These people are not like ordinary killers, everyone will be careful later," Yan Jingxing whispered to the people next to him, took the opportunity to send out the rescue signal, looked at the leader and asked, "Who sent you here?" "There are too many people on the other side, and it can be delayed for a while.
"Young Master Yan doesn't have to delay time, someone will clean up the people you left in the mansion. For so many years, the master has been looking for the remnants of the year, but I never thought that you were so bold that you even searched for Kyoto, and it was really in vain that Yan Nanyuan paved the way for you. The man said, he was originally dependent on the Pang family to survive, and the future is bright, but now he can only be a knife in the hands of the queen, how can he be willing. "Not a single living mouth!"
As soon as Chu Yunyun saw these people, he knew what the problem was, "It's the queen's person, when there is a chance, he will flee, meet in Tangzhou, and don't go back to Weizhou." Yan Jingxing and the others also understood that they were too big in Beijing, and when they were evacuating people, they were found in Weizhou, and they followed them all the way here, wanting to get rid of the troubles here forever.
The other party came prepared, and after a fight, the dozen or so of them were already exhausted. Fortunately, the Central Plains is rich in medicinal herbs, and You Min makes some medicines from time to time, and there are a lot of poisons and wounds on everyone's body. After being tired for a while, they sprinkled the powder on the wind, and the two sides were at a stalemate for a while.
Before they knew it, they had been forced to the precipice, and the poison on their bodies was almost used, but there were still twenty or thirty people on the other side. After scattering the last poison, Chu Yunyun retreated to the side, her skills were not enough in front of these people, so she could only throw some poison while others were unprepared. Looking at the people who fell under her poison, no matter how much they were worried and timid in their hearts, there was no time to think about anything else at this time, and saving their lives was the key. Fortunately, the mountain wind was strong here, and it was blowing towards each other, and seeing the assassins fall four more people, everyone felt a little more relaxed and entered the battle again.
"Be careful!"
"Ripple!"
"Boss!"
"Master!"
