Judging from the geographical location, these five peaks occupy a very large area. Because they are located on a plateau and the altitude is very high, the snow on the snow-capped mountains does not melt all year round, and the weather is abnormally cold.
At this time, the old herdsman said: "Since you know the history and legends of our Qiang people, I will not hide it from you. The Goddess Peak was transformed by the goddesses of our Qiang people, and beyond that is the Demon Realm, where the Goddesses fought with demons back then. I heard that there are still demons in that place.”
It turned out to be the case, I thought to myself, this myth may be purely non-existent, or such a thing may have happened, but the fact has long been submerged in the dust of history.
When I was sleeping at night, I kept thinking about that mysterious historical legend. My experience of tomb robbery told me that the incident was not as simple as I imagined. Maybe the disappearance of the archaeological team was related to this mysterious legend.
On the second day, we got up early, and the old herdsman had prepared everything for us, including thick leather boots, which would not soak into the boots no matter how deep the snow was.
To be honest, because I know ancient martial arts, I can use my inner breath to resist the cold, so I can still easily bear the severe weather on the Daxue Mountain. However, when encountering many major dangers, such as avalanches, I can Can only barely protect themselves.
The goal of our departure today is a small mountain near Shennvfeng. The old herdsman told me that when the archaeological team came, he also asked him about the specific situation of this mountain.
From the mouth of the old herdsman, I judged that there is no serious danger to this mountain, because the old herdsman had been to that mountain several times when he was young, and he told me that he had seen bears on that mountain with his own eyes.
I touched the diamond-shaped throwing knife in my arms. If Xiong Xiazi dared to appear in front of me, he would undoubtedly be asking for death. My throwing knife is merciless.
That mountain is still a little far away from where we live, and we need to climb over a mountain, so starting early is extremely beneficial to the itinerary.
Because the old herdsmen are familiar with the roads here, it was not yet noon when we crossed the first snow mountain.On the way, we took a short rest, ate some dry food, gained some strength, and continued to the second snow mountain.
Along the way, due to the sensitivity of the archaeologists, Zhang Chengcai kept observing the surroundings, hoping to find the traces left by the previous archaeologists.
That's right, he and the archaeologists who had the accident were colleagues, and they should be quite familiar with each other's working methods. If his colleagues can leave some special marks, he can clearly identify them.
However, the result made him very disappointed. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find any useful value.
When I climbed to the second snow mountain, my watch told me that it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
The wind on the snow-capped mountains was so strong that it blew on his face like a knife cut him. It was obvious that Chengcai couldn't bear this situation.Fortunately, we did a good job of keeping warm, and Chengcai covered his entire face.
Standing at the top of the mountain and looking at the entire snow-capped mountains, there is a vast expanse of whiteness all around, only the Goddess Peak looming in the distance.
There are not many opportunities to see Goddess Peak in life. At this moment, the entire mountain is surrounded by white snow, like a white woman standing quietly, looking so elegant and charming.
Chengcai and I were almost stunned. We didn't expect such a charming snow scene in such a dangerous environment.
At this time, the old herdsman said to us: "We can only go here today, we have to go back, because after nightfall, wild animals will appear in the mountains, and the danger will increase a lot at once."
This is indeed a very troublesome thing. If you go here every day and then go back, you won't find anything.Besides, I am not afraid of the cold at all, let alone beasts.
"Chengcai, do you mean to go back now?" I stared at Chengcai, obviously wanting to ask his opinion.
Zhang Chengcai looked at me in surprise, and said, "Boss, don't you want to move forward now, are you crazy?"
In fact, after I set off today, I didn't plan to go out at all, but I wanted to cross the Goddess Peak and enter the demon realm.
The old herdsman also looked at me incredulously, and asked, "Are you crazy? If you stay in the snow-capped mountains at night, even if you don't freeze to death, you will be eaten by wild animals. Besides, there are evil spirits in the mountains.... "
The old herdsman's face changed when he talked about this. Obviously, he didn't want to say anything later.
I smiled slightly and said: "I have nothing to do, you take my friend down the mountain first, you don't come to Xueshan tomorrow, and I will come to Xuegu Town to find you in ten days."
I have always been relatively prudent in doing things, and Zhang Chengcai is also familiar with my personality, so I must be certain when I say this.He nodded and said, "Head, be careful yourself, but before you leave, there are a few things I must tell you."
I said, "Okay, tell me!"
Zhang Chengcai said: "Where our Caigu team members have walked, we will leave special marks in prominent places. When I first went up the mountain, I found such marks, but later, the marks disappeared without a trace. disappeared, so I'm sure they must have gone in another direction."
At this time, the old herdsman said: "Indeed, there are two roads leading to Shennv Peak on this mountain road. One is the one we are taking now, and the other is more rugged, but the road is shorter and leads directly to Shennv Peak. I think those archaeological Players should be the other way to go."
"Damn it." I cursed in my heart, these two guys are really a pair of treasures, if I knew this earlier, I would definitely go another way, so I would find more clues.
I said: "Okay, I see, you guys hurry down the mountain, go back now, it will be at least eight o'clock to Xuegu Town, if you don't go until midnight, it will be dangerous."
Zhang Chengcai nodded and said, "Head, take care of yourself and go down the mountain with the old herdsman."
Chapter 22 The Walking Dead
After seeing off Chengcai, I felt a little relieved. Next, I will start my own plan.
Obviously, my first target is Goddess Peak.
At this time, without the burden of Zhang Chengcai and the old herdsman, I started to use Ti Yunzong's lightness kung fu.
Sure enough, Ti Yunzong's qinggong was very fast. Although he had consumed some internal energy, within an hour, I had arrived at the foot of the Goddess Peak.
When I reached the foot of Shennv Peak, I took a deep breath.
It turns out that the entire Shennv Peak is very smooth, and there are almost no roads leading to the top of Shennv Peak.
At this time, the sun was already in the west, and the faint sunlight shone on the snow-covered mountain peaks, which were uniquely beautiful. Unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of me right now.
My mind is full of the situation of the third child lying in the hospital. Although I haven't figured out anything yet, saving the third child is the strongest reason for me to come here.
Seeing such a precipitous Goddess Peak, I felt a little bit troubled.If it is an ordinary mountain, I can easily climb it using the lightness skill of Youlong Gekko Kungfu, but this mountain is covered with snow, I can't climb up it close to the snow.
Of course, my ultimate goal is the five peaks behind Shennv Peak, but to reach these five peaks, I must pass through Shennv Peak, otherwise, there are dense forest roads and cliffs, and there is no other way to reach the five peaks behind.
It's no wonder that the old herdsman is afraid. I'm afraid he has never been here in his life, and he just looks at the Goddess Peak from a distance.
The speed of the sun was indeed a little fast, and soon it fell below the horizon, and the earth fell into darkness again.
The entire snow-capped mountain became a bit gloomy, and there were strange screams in the distance, which made people's hair stand on end.
Fortunately, the moon is not bad today. It shines on the snow, as if the earth is covered with a layer of silver yarn.
For me, under the moonlight, my eyes can be as bright as day, so even though the night is coming, I don't have any fear, but look forward to it.
The night sky of the snow-capped mountains is very beautiful. Looking at the stars and the moon in the sky, I feel an indescribable beauty.Because I have lived in the city for many years, I have never seen so many stars, and I can't help feeling nostalgic.
Just as I was admiring the beautiful starry sky, suddenly, a black shadow passed over the sky.
It can be clearly seen that the black shadow is moving slowly, as if it is an airplane high in the sky, but my eyesight is far beyond that of ordinary people, and I can quickly confirm that it is definitely not an airplane.
Although it is as big as an airplane, in the sky, I saw its wings flapping, and it was faintly a giant flying bird.
It's incredible that there are such big birds in the dark sky.According to the visual distance, I estimate that it should be about 8000 meters high.
Suddenly, I thought of the huge monster I saw in the mysterious canyon that day. It also had a pair of huge wings, and at this time, the two matched so well.
Could this be the same kind of monster? What was the reason why he appeared on the top of the snow mountain?
That is, since the monster appeared in the canyon, its whereabouts have been a mystery. Everyone who saw it had different opinions, but there was still no precise conclusion.
It turned out that its lair was in the snow-capped mountains. No wonder the locals were so scared. I thought to myself: "Now is the perfect opportunity to get rid of this monster."
But now the problem I am facing is that the Goddess Peak lies in front of me, and climbing the Goddess Peak has become an insurmountable obstacle for me.
