Chapter 250: It's the top
On the way to Karakuri City, there is a "Buding Mountain", which is famous because no one has been able to reach the top so far.
This mountain, in fact, does not look high, far less tall than Daizong Mountain in Qingzhou, but on the contrary, no one can reach the top.
Some people say that there is a kind of ghostly fog in it, which can make people lose their way, and often you think that you are walking up the mountain again, but you are actually walking down the mountain road.
There are also people who say that this mountain has already become a spirit [bks.xyz], and there are good treasures on the top of the mountain, so the mountain spirit does not let people climb it.
Some people also say that there is a land-related father-in-law in Buding Mountain, and he sealed an evil thing on the top of the mountain, and did not let people go up the mountain to protect everyone.
In short, there are various theories circulating among the people.
However, this did not discourage some adventurous and treasure seekers, and many people never came out of Buding Mountain every year.
These people are mainly Wu and Zhao, after all, Wu and Zhao are the two closest countries to Budingshan.
"I suddenly wanted to go in and see what to do. Liu Chu stopped at the bottom of the mountain, and his heart was a little itchy.
"Don't go in, you'll die. Wei Suo was afraid that Liu Chu wouldn't be able to think about it.
This is not a top mountain, it is known as a small forbidden area, although it is not as good as Nightmare Island, Mirage, Hero City, Burial Soul Pond and other places, but it is also a place of nine deaths and a life.
Anyway, Wei Suo hadn't heard of anyone who could get in and come out.
In fact, if you don't try to reach the top, there is not much danger, as long as it is not more than halfway up the mountain, you can come back smoothly.
However, people's thoughts are always greedy, once they reach the halfway point of the mountain, they see that they are only a few steps away from the top of the mountain, and they may think that they may be able to reach the top by gritting their teeth.
And then, and then there was no more...... Most of them are gone.
Liu Chuwan reluctantly glanced at the top of the mountain, and then left with the people.
After walking for another half a day, the sky was getting dark, and Liu Chu stopped to set up camp.
Liu Chu picked up firewood while looking in the direction of Buding Mountain.
People's curiosity, once it rises, is really a little scary......
In the night, a figure sneaked out of the camp, looked back like a thief, and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no one had spotted him.
Liu Chu turned around and looked at the direction of Buding Mountain, but decided to take a look.
"Mom!" Liu Chu turned his head this time, startled, and there was a chubby figure standing in front of him, like a blessed grizzly bear.
"Shhhh Don't wake them up, I know you can't stay up, and you'll sneak up the mountain. Tong Botao made a silent gesture.
"Do you want to come with me?" Liu Chu immediately understood Tong Botao's intention to appear here.
"Well, I'd like to check it out too. Tong Botao nodded.
"That's a dangerous place!" Liu Chu reminded.
"I'm afraid of a ball!" Tong Botao said confidently.
"Okay, let's go!" Liu Chu patted Tong Botao on the shoulder.
Tong Botao snorted, then turned around, then trembled, glared and said, "Mom! scare Lao Tzu, why are you standing behind Lao Tzu silently?"
Liu Chu leaned out from behind Tong Botao and found Wei Suo standing opposite.
"I knew you two would be dishonest. Wei Suo said.
"Are you honest? I think you want to go too, right?" Tong Botao said angrily, still a little frightened at the moment.
It's a big night, and people are scared to death!" Wei Suo grinned.
"Let's go, I'll lead the horse. Liu Chu smiled, the three of them all had the same thoughts, and if they didn't look at this mountain, their hearts were itching.
Under the moonlight, three figures galloped in the canyon, and the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the empty canyon for a long time.
"I'll go ahead in a moment. ”
The three of them stopped in front of Buding Mountain, and after finding a hidden place to hide the horse, Tong Botao said.
"Why?" Liu Chu wondered, how could this product volunteer to open the way in front?
"My uncle told me that if a monster eats a man, it will either catch the back or the middle, so it is safest to walk in front. Tong Botao said eloquently.
"......" Wei Suo was speechless.
"......" Liu Chu was stunned because he wanted to give this dead fat man a hammer.
In the end, Tong Botao got his wish and walked in front.
However, Liu Chu and Wei Suo did not walk behind, but walked on Tong Botao's side left and right.
Tong Botao looked left and right, like this, isn't he in the middle? This is too dangerous!
So, Tong Botao quickened his pace, wanting to leave the two behind, so that he would not be in the middle.
"Dead fatty, go slowly!" Liu Chu shouted.
Tong Botao didn't care about it, he just walked forward with a dull head.
"This thing is so evil!" Wei Suo was speechless.
"We're almost halfway up the mountain, and the fog here is getting thicker, so let's be careful. ”
Liu Chu looked around, the fog was almost more than one person high, just blocking the view, if he stood on tiptoe, he could barely see the road in the distance.
"The fat man is gone. Liu Chu frowned.
"Let's go faster, he should be going in that direction. Wei Suo pointed ahead and said.
The two groped their way forward in the fog for a long time with a stick of incense, but they never saw Tong Botao.
"This guy, really, it's okay now, he's lost. Wei Suo said angrily.
"Let's keep climbing. Liu Chu said.
At this time, Tong Botao stood in the mist, looking at the white expanse around him, and completely lost his direction.
"These two guys, really, don't follow closely, they're lost now! Lao Tzu still has to go to them, it's really troublesome!" Tong Botao said angrily.
If Liu Chu and Wei Suo listened to it, they would probably have to stare out their eyes, who was lost?
Liu Chu and Wei Suo turned around in the fog for a long time, they looked up at the moonlight, and they were afraid that it would be dawn in two hours.
"Do you have a ball?" Liu Chu asked suddenly.
"Balls, what balls do I have?" Wei Suo was stunned for a moment.
"Round balls. Liu Chu looked under Wei Suo.
"What do you want to do?" Wei Suo subconsciously covered his bottom and couldn't help but shudder.
"What are you thinking about, I remember that the folk don't say that going down the mountain is going up the mountain, and going up the mountain is going down the mountain? I want to find out if it is the other way around. Liu Chu said.
"So?" Wei Suo looked at Liu Chu strangely, this has a ball relationship with "ball"?
"So, we're going to experiment with a ball. Liu Chu said.
"So where are you going to find the ball? There's a ball here!" said Wesso.
"If you don't have a ball, just make your own, I'll think about it. Liu Chu squatted on the ground and began to study.
Wei Suo just watched the process and saw that he didn't react for a long time.
"What are you doing?" asked Wei Suo.
"Emotions are brewing. Alas, there was too little water to drink just now. You shouldn't have spilled that pee before leaving. Liu Chu sighed and looked sad.
"Why are you brewing urine?" Wei Suo was stunned for a moment.
"I want to be with a ball of mud. Liu Chu said that this is the best way he can come up with at the moment.
"I have water...... Wesso plucked the kettle from his waist.
This time, it was Liu Chu's turn to be stunned, looked at Wei Suo incredulously, and said, "You have water, why don't you say it earlier?"
"You didn't say you needed water. Wei Suo said speechlessly.
Liu Chu took the kettle, poured the water on the ground, and then came out with a mud ball.
When the mud ball was almost dry, Liu Chu found a large clean and relatively smooth stone, made it parallel to the ground, and then placed the mud ball on it.
"If we roll in your direction, it's proof that we're really going up the mountain. If you roll in my direction, then it proves that the folk saying is correct, and you have to do the opposite. Liu Chu pointed to both sides and said.
Liu Chu took a deep breath and put the stone ball on the stone, nervously paying attention to the direction in which the stone ball rolled down.
In the end, the stone ball rolled down in the direction where Liu Chu was standing, which confirmed that the folk saying was right!
"Then we go the other way around?" Wei Suo looked strange.
"I think we should go in your direction. Liu Chu said after a deep sigh.
"Why? Isn't it proven that the folk legend is true?" Wei Suo was stunned for a moment.
"I think there are people who are smarter than me, and they must have done similar experiments to verify this folk statement. ”
"So, have you thought about it, after they verified, they still couldn't reach the top and didn't get out alive, why?" Liu Chu said.
"Why?" said Wei Suo didn't understand.
"It shows that it has to be the opposite of the folk saying, and the opposite of the negative is the positive, so you have to continue to go in your direction. Liu Chu explained.
Wei Suo's head was big for a while, and he couldn't understand it for a while.
"In layman's terms, it means that many people are smart but are mistaken by smart. Liu Chu looked at Wei Suo's puzzled expression and continued to explain.
"I don't understand, I don't have that brain, you say keep going in this direction. Wei Suo covered his face, and his brain hurt.
So, Liu Chu and Wei Suo continued to move forward, and the fog in front of them became thicker and thicker, and in the end, even "reaching out and not seeing five fingers" was a luxury, but completely became a blind man.
In order to prevent separation, as a last resort, Liu Chu and Tong Botao held their hands......
So, the two big men held hands and walked together, and everyone was good friends......
"Why do I feel that it is getting harder and harder to breathe, it can't be poisoning?" Wei Suo said.
Liu Chu looked back, the fog was too thick, he couldn't see Wei Suo at all, only heard his voice and couldn't see his person.
"This means that we are indeed going to a high place, and we may even be close to the top of the mountain. The air at the top of the mountain is somewhat thinner than below. Liu Chu said.
After another half hour, the line of sight in front of him suddenly became clear, and a golden light shone in through the mist.
The two figures pierced through the golden mist dyed with golden light and rushed out at once.
Liu Chu and Wei Suo glanced at each other, they actually reached the top!
At this time, the rising sun had risen in the east, and the first line of golden light covered the entire summit of Buding Mountain.
