Chapter 5 Chapter Four: Shadows Floating in the Mountains

Since everyone's sleep quality is not bad these days, everyone got up very early on the day of the operation.The night before departure, everyone was still a little nervous.It was dawn at 5 o'clock in the local area, and everyone set off at 4:30, eager to enter the mountain. At dawn, everyone came to the foot of Furong Mountain, crossed the Crab Creek, and left the hanging coffin tombs in the scenic spot.We walked to the north, walked for about half an hour, and there was a fork in the road on the right side ahead.This fork in the road is said to be a fork in the road, but it is actually just the saddle of two hills appearing beside the mountain road. The terrain there is low, so it looks like a fork in the road.

Tang Yong said: "Yesterday we met a lot of people on this mountain path, which means that there are many people walking on this mountain path, and it is not suitable for everyone to move. If the old monk sees us, we will not be able to go up the mountain. Now there is a fork in the road. Let’s go in from here, and our actions will deceive people.” Everyone nodded. So Tang Yong played the vanguard, Wushu was in the back, and everyone marched into the mountain with their backpacks on their backs.The direction of this road is in the east, entering the saddle of the mountain, and no one has passed it.Although these mountain roads are rugged, the mountains are more rocky and there is not much grass.Although there are pine trees growing on the mountain, the saddle is bare, so it is not difficult to walk.

After walking like this for about an hour, no one felt tired at all.At this time, the sun is slowly rising, the mountains are ups and downs, covered by the rising sun, the green shade reflects the mountains, and there is some mist in the distance, surrounding the top of the mountains, which is very beautiful.Qiu Han asked Hu Songshan: "Sister Hu, are you tired? If so, I'll help you carry it." Hu Songshan said: "I'm not tired, I'm fine. I used to do physical training." Qiu Han pretended to be surprised and said: "Really? So powerful! You are much better than your brother, he dare not come."

Hu Songshan smiled and said, "Are you scolding me or praising me?" Qiu Han said: "Of course I'm praising you. You can see that your brother couldn't do it, but you did it." Hu Songshan said: "You scolded my brother, why don't I get scolded?" Qiu Han was speechless for a moment, and wanted to strike up a conversation, but unexpectedly, his nose got ashamed.Seeing this scene, Big Bear also smiled, and said, "How about it, did you touch your nose? She's a bad sister." I also snickered when I heard that, wondering why Qiu Han thought of hooking up with girls.At this moment, Uncle Wu stopped everyone and said, "Why does this mountain road go down all the way? We should go north, not east." Everyone saw that it was indeed so.Now everyone has walked out of the saddle and is walking towards the foot of the mountain on the east side of the mountain just now.Because the pine trees blocked the line of sight ahead, it was impossible to see the situation below the mountain clearly.It seems that the two connected mountains are actually one, but they form two different peaks.When everyone walked out of the saddle, because there was no mountain road leading to the north, they kept walking east.

Hearing what Uncle Wu said, everyone immediately changed direction, supported the tree, and walked north along the hillside.It's just that the mountain looks slanted, and the mountain seems to be heading northeast. Even if you walk along the mountainside, you have to deviate from the direction and go northeast. Uncle Wu said: "It's not possible to go like this, we will be too far away from the destination and delay too much travel." Tang Yong also seemed to see the problem, he said: "There is no way, we can only take one step at a time, let's go to the front and go back, at most, we will walk a few more miles. Since we choose to make a detour, it is inevitable to walk a few more miles. "So everyone continued to walk northeast along the mountain.After walking like this for an hour, the mountain ahead finally came to an end. I looked at my watch, it was already eight o'clock.The crowd was overjoyed, thinking that they finally didn't have to go east.

Everyone speeded up, but when they reached the end of the mountain, they looked up, there was no way out, and there was a big canyon below.This canyon runs southeast-northwest, and the direction of the mountain just crosses the shape of a "ten". It is about 100 meters deep and cannot be crossed at all.Seeing this, everyone was relatively embarrassed, thinking that this journey was in vain.Da Xiong said: "Isn't this work in vain? People say that I returned to the pre-liberation overnight, and I have returned to the ancient society." I didn't expect that there would be such a big canyon here.Judging from the direction of the valley, everyone had been walking down just now. If they hadn't changed to the mountainside, they would have reached the bottom of the valley as well.I asked, "Do you want to withdraw? At worst, enter through the main entrance tomorrow."

Da Xiong said: "Why don't you have the spirit of adventure, you're sweating, how can you turn around? Right, Director Tang?" Tang Yong was noncommittal, and said: "Since the Yuan Dynasty, only one intersection has been closed here, which means that there is only one way into the mountain. Now that we are looking for another intersection, we must climb countless hills and be mentally prepared for the Long March. You see, there is a mountain path on the mountain opposite the cliff, and we can go northward along that mountain path." Then everyone walked southwest along the cliff on the valley, intending to find the valley entrance from the foot of the mountain.Since the mountain body and the inclined valley are crossed in the shape of a "ten", the farther the southwest direction is from here, the shallower the canyon will be.

While walking, Daxiong complained about going the wrong way, and said: "I said Director Tang, your leadership line is not good, and the policies and major policies you formulated have not passed public opinion evaluation. You should hold a public hearing first. Even if you There is a problem if you don’t hold a public hearing. Uncle Wu, as the second in command, plays a supervisory role. You should also accept other people’s supervision and accept their opinions with an open mind. But you always monopolize the power, you see that you are at a disadvantage, right? It’s such a wasteful journey. It doesn’t matter if we run a little longer, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it at your age. Sigh, Director Tang, please walk slowly, my legs are numb.”

Everyone burst into laughter, unexpectedly this big bear is quite funny.But I can't laugh. After all, the life and death of the fourth uncle is unknown. I want to find the fourth uncle and go back to the fourth aunt to explain.Thinking of this, I have a sad cloud on my face. Hu Songshan saw everyone laughing, but I was the only one covered with cloudy clouds, like a rainy day in July.Hu Songshan asked: "You seem to have something on your mind, are you thinking about someone?" I nodded, and Hu Songshan smiled and said, "Where is it all, you still think about others! When our operation is over, can't you go back and see her?"

It turned out that she thought I was missing Liu Ge, so I shook my head. Hu Songshan continued: "Unexpectedly, you are quite infatuated." I couldn't help laughing, and said, "I want my fourth uncle's safety, what are you thinking about?" Hu Songshan looked embarrassed, and said, "Oh, fourth uncle, fourth uncle, hehe, then think about it." The crowd walked southwest along the cliff for more than an hour. At this time, they were getting farther and farther away from their destination, but the cliff was getting lower and lower. At this time, it seemed that the depth of the valley was only more than ten meters deep.

The formation of valleys is a folded mountain shape formed by a mountain under the action of geology, or two deep grooves with a relatively close surface distance formed by the compression of two similar mountains.However, this valley does not look like this, but the geographical structure is formed by two independent mountains in close proximity, so this valley has become no different from the saddle, but it is more open. Everyone looked for a place where they could step down, and walked down the mountain to the bottom of the valley one by one.Then climbed to another mountain, so that you can walk back along the southeast-northwest direction.Big Bear continued: "Persistence is the most important thing for people. Look at us, we can't just retreat when we encounter the difficulties just now. Don't you think we have passed it? Look at the pine trees in the distance, which are lush and lush, growing on this mountain. It's not easy. There is no water and no nutrition on the mountain, but they are very tenacious. Oh, no, why are there people there? Shhh, everyone get down." When everyone heard what Big Bear said, they immediately fell to the ground.Da Xiong laughed and said, "Haha, you've been fooled, haha ​​Director Tang, your reaction speed is quite fast." Tang Yong was furious when he knew he had been cheated, and said, "Big Bear, thanks to the fact that you are also a descendant of the Maoshan Sect, why aren't you upright?" Daxiong looked aggrieved, and said, "Just kidding with everyone, to ease the atmosphere, I'm afraid it's too tense. Oh, no, look, there are really people." Tang Yong glanced at Big Bear, and said: "Why didn't I see that you kid likes to deceive people before, this is an action, not a play, can you be quiet?" Qiu Han also said, "Yes, be quiet." Tang Yong also gave Qiu Han a sideways glance, and said, "You talk a lot." Big Xiong said nervously, "It really is, and it's still holding a gun." Tang Yong scolded Big Bear while turning around, only to see Tang Yong suddenly fell to the ground and ordered everyone to get down, but when I got down, there was no one in front of me. After a while, everyone saw that there was no movement in front of them, so they stood up.Tang Yong said: "Everyone, load your guns quickly." Everyone was nervous and excited. After all, it was the first time to fight with a gun, and they were somewhat curious.Tang Yong made a forward gesture, and everyone used the pine tree as a cover to walk forward carefully with their heads down.After walking about 70 meters, Tang Yong looked around, but he never saw anyone.Tang Yong said: "It seems that these people are passing by here." Uncle Wu asked, "Have you seen what they look like?" Tang Yong said: "They are wearing ordinary clothes, each carrying a bag, and holding a gun in his hand. The specific gun is unclear, but it must be a submachine gun. They were 80 meters away from us just now, and they probably didn't find us in a hurry. .Everyone has no experience in mountain warfare and jungle warfare, so you have to listen to my orders in the future." Qiu Han said, "It can't be a ghost, can it?" Tang Yong glared at Qiu Han: "In broad daylight, how can there be ghosts? Have you watched too many horror movies!" At that moment, everyone walked northeast along the gentle hillside.At this time, everyone was silent, for fear of encountering any danger. The trees in front became denser and denser, not like ordinary mountains, but more like jungles.Because the mountains there have been desertified, with red soil on the surface, not only pine trees are planted on the mountains, but also many shrubs and tall trees.The local people call this kind of mountain "po", which means a mountain that can be planted. Because the tall grass was two meters high, everyone couldn't see clearly ahead for a while.Right now, everyone had no choice but to climb to the top of the mountain, because only in this way could they see the terrain clearly and not get lost.When I was walking up, I saw a few people walking on another hill at the back. These people were carrying bags and carrying guns as Tang Yong described.I told everyone to look north, and they immediately turned around and looked in the direction I pointed, only to see those people swaying on another hill, and then disappeared into the mountain. The mountains are too large and the vegetation is lush, so it is easy to hide.Obviously, these people are very familiar with the terrain in this area.Tang Yong said: "These people seem to come to this place often. We only walked for a while, and they turned over a mountain. If you catch up with them, we will be able to get out of this mountain." So everyone put away their guns and quickened their pace.Climbing to the top of the mountain, everyone saw a mountain road in the northeast direction with relatively low grass. After descending the mountain, they could directly climb to the opposite mountain.It seems that the group of people just now took this path, and the other places are either too deep or the cliffs are too steep. At the moment, everyone went to the north of the mountain according to the plan.Walked like this for two hours.This trip went smoothly, although there were still some gullies and gullies, but there was no need to detour for a few kilometers.I checked the time, it was one o'clock.Tang Yong asked everyone to eat something, take a rest, and continue their journey in the afternoon. After they ate their bread and drank some water, they lay down on the rocks of the mountain.Because I didn't sleep very well last night, and I climbed the mountain in the morning, I was exhausted at this time.I looked at everyone, everyone was out of breath.It is already summer now, and there is still a weight of 20 kilograms, which really looks like a field battle.The jungle here is deep and dense, and it is very shady. Compared with my hometown, the air here is really good.Since everyone has done exercise on weekdays, they can still bear it, but what surprised me is that it's nothing more than us men can bear it, and that Hu Songshan is fine.To be honest, Hu Songze said that he has no experience in fighting and cannot participate in this operation. Now I don't believe it.He can't really be as Qiu Han said, he is not as good as his sister. Just as everyone was about to take a nap, I felt a hard object hit the back of my head.Only one person said: "Don't move." I opened my eyes and saw a dozen people pointing guns at us.These people have disheveled hair, long beards, and smelly of sweat, all of them are vicious.Among them was a man whose left eye was covered with a cloth, which looked like a one-eyed dragon.I just heard the one-eyed dragon say: "What are you doing, why do you always follow us?" Everyone panicked and didn't know what to do.However, Tang Yong walked through the strong wind and waves, and saw him stand up slowly, and said: "Brothers, we are members of the geological team, and we are here to explore the geology in the mountains." I just heard the one-eyed man curse: "What geological team? Just now I used a telescope and saw you holding Type 85 in your hands. You want to lie to me, are you courting death?" Tang Yong didn't expect that these people would have discovered his whereabouts long ago. He only heard the one-eyed dragon say: "I discovered you very early on. If my brothers didn't stop me, I would have killed you a long time ago. But you bastards , I don’t know what’s good or bad, but I’ve been chasing after him for two hours.” Tang Yong said: "These big brothers are all doing business without money?" When the one-eyed dragon heard it, he immediately gave Tang Yong a slap, and said, "You are only doing business without money. I have guns and cannons. As for being so cheap? Listen, I'm not afraid that you will know that I am a smuggler. Anyway, you also I won't live long." Everyone is guilty, are these people going to kill everyone?At this time, Hu Songshan said: "You want to smuggle, and what we do is not an authentic job. We are all of the same way, so why kill each other?" The one-eyed dragon said: "Hey, where did you come from, little girl, do you have a share in talking? Let me tell you, we brothers haven't touched a woman in months. If you get tired of life, just keep talking." Who knows that Hu Songshan smiled and said: "Everyone lives with bullets on their heads, and they don't know when they will die, that is, they will die one day earlier or one day later. To tell you the truth, we are all robbing graves, just like you. It's all a business that loses your head. We are aggrieved when we fall into the hands of a few big brothers and speak from the bottom of our hearts. They are all good guys, so they should understand the truth of what I said." After Hu Songshan finished speaking, those people nodded, and one of them said: "Brother, this little girl is right, we all live with our heads in our hands. Killing these people will ruin our reputation." Cyclops nodded and said, "That's right, but how do you prove that you are grave robbers?" Hu Songshan said: "This is very simple. You are so familiar with this terrain, you should know the situation here. To the west, where do you say it is?" Cyclops said: "It's very dangerous there. We delivered goods to people several times and tried to pass through there, but we broke a few brothers." Hu Songshan said: "That's right. There is an ancient tomb there, and countless traps have been set up in the cemetery. There is a Boren king buried there, and there are countless gold and silver hidden there. Naturally, it is dangerous." At this time, one of the group of people said: "Yes, my house is nearby. There is indeed an ancient tomb here, but no one who went in has ever come out." Hearing what this person said, Cyclops seemed to believe it.He ordered everyone to put away their guns, and said, "I'm sorry, brothers, we all live in the rivers and lakes. If it were someone else, I would have been in the shuttle. We just shipped a batch from other places. 'Cargo', but was investigated, we fought an encounter with people, lost a few brothers, and had to hide in the mountains. Now we all have no goods, and we can't explain to the owner of the goods, so we are angry. Just now I feel sorry for everyone, and I hope you will understand me a lot.” Hu Songshan said: "It's okay, if it were us, we would do the same. You are cautious, you are the masters of great things, and you will definitely be able to develop in the future." The one-eyed dragon said: "I made my brother laugh. We all have nowhere to go now. If we go out of the mountain, we are afraid that we will be chased and killed by the buyer. Why don't we team up with you and go to the tomb robbery, and then we will get some points. " Let's look at me, let's look at you, it's okay if we don't agree now, all our guys were confiscated by them just now. Hu Songshan nodded, and said: "That's really what I wish for. You are all masters of jungle warfare. With your help, it will be even more powerful. I don't know what you call it?" Cyclops said: "My name is Fei Biao, and my surname is Guo. Everyone calls me Brother Biao." Then Fei Biao pointed to a bearded man next to him, and said, "This is my brother, the second leader here, nicknamed Tiger. Tiger's ability is high, and countless people died under him. Our lost brothers It’s all paid for by him killing others.” Hu Songshan said hello to Tiger, pointed to Tang Yong, and said, "This is our captain, named Tang Yong." Cyclops looked at Tang Yong, then nodded, looking contemptuous.He said: "Brother Tang, I'm sorry just now, you are a bit heavy-handed, but I think you look like an armed policeman." Only then did everyone understand why Cyclops only beat Tang Yong, it turned out to be because of this reason. Hu Songshan smiled and said, "It's not your fault, he was also a soldier before." Unexpectedly, the one-eyed dragon Feibiao smiled and said: "Haha, no wonder, I'm sorry. Please forgive me, it's purely a misunderstanding." Afterwards, Hu Songshan introduced everyone one by one. The one-eyed dragon Feibiao said: "Sister, you are a nice person, you can just recognize me as a brother. I don't have such a beautiful girl. I see that the few here, except Brother Tang and Brother Zhixin, are all unmarried young people, right? They If anyone bullies you, I will beat him, haha." Hu Songshan agreed not to, and it was not true not to agree.But since ancient times, political power has emerged from the barrel of a gun. Now that people have guns in their hands, they naturally have to compromise.Hu Songshan said with a smile: "Then I will take care of you from now on." The one-eyed dragon Feibiao burst into laughter again. After what happened just now, everyone was covered in cold sweat.Now with the addition of Fei Biao's twelve members, the team has eighteen members, which can be said to be a relatively large team. Fei Biao said: "If we want to enter the mountainside, we have to go around another 20 miles. Although everyone has traveled a long way, this journey is almost useless. My suggestion is, let's walk another distance until we reach the sky. Before dark, we reached Wuligou, walked westward for three kilometers the next day, and climbed over a big mountain to enter." Everyone nodded in agreement. After Fei Biao returned our luggage to us, some of Fei Biao's brothers led the front army, with us in the middle and a few of them in the rear.I know that they are afraid of us cheating, so they deliberately arranged this formation. At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, everyone came to Wuligou.Wuligou is a place name, which was given by Fei Biao.When they came here for the first time, they took a fancy to this place. There is a flat land with no trees around, just enough to set up a tent as a resting place.Wuligou got its name from a five-mile-long ditch. The water in this ditch is extremely clear and sweet, so if Fei Biao and the others need to pass by here, they must camp here. When we arrived at Wuligou, we were also fascinated by the scenery here. It is not only convenient for setting up tents, but also surrounded by mountains and rivers.Fei Biao said that the mountains in this area are very strange and haunted at night, especially the west side of the mountain, which is very fierce. Camping in Wuligou is safe at night. After hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense, so they stopped refuting.After setting up the tent, Fei Biao said to the Tiger: "Second Brother, bring a few people back to buy some shanwei, we are all hungry."It seems that these people often divide their work and arrange them in an orderly manner. I lit the bonfire and looked at Uncle Wu, who looked calm.I asked Uncle Wu, "Why don't you speak?" Uncle Wu said: "Everyone's arrangement is very good, I don't need to say anything. The most important thing here is unity. I hope we can find the fourth brother this time. I don't know what happened to him. It's so dangerous here, and there is no food. , I don’t know if he can survive? The fourth sister-in-law is still waiting for us at home.” Uncle Wu and I were chatting, Tiger and the others had already returned, and I saw a few people walking towards us carrying a wild boar weighing more than one hundred catties.Fei Biao said: "Brothers have worked hard, let these new friends see our skills. Brothers, clean up the pigs, let's have roast pork tonight." It is true that there are many people and strength, and the wild boar was cleaned up on the shore of the lake in an instant.Then they cut the wild boar into pieces and washed them at the spring.A group of people were cleaning up the pork, and a group of people set up four or five bonfires on the flat ground, and the dinner seemed to be settled. As night fell, a faint smoke billowed from the woods.Everyone was roasting pork at their own bonfires. I saw Qiu Han scrambling around, but I didn't know what to do.Hu Songshan seemed to see our embarrassment, and took the initiative to help us arrange the pork, and told us how to rotate it and how to add seasoning.Unexpectedly, halfway through the roasting, everyone heard a neighing cry in the distance, and the sound became louder and louder. After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel horrified and had goosebumps all over their bodies. Big Bear said: "Brother Biao, didn't you say that there would only be riots on the other side of the mountain in the middle of the night? How come it's just dark and the show is about to start?"
