Chatting and chatting, we talked about the third child.
At this moment, Zhang Chengcai sighed and said, "Boss, there is actually a secret that has been hidden in my heart for a long time."
At this time Zhang Chengcai said such a serious topic, I was also very strange in my heart, and asked: "Chengcai, what is the matter?"
Zhang Chengcai said to me solemnly: "Head, actually I really like Chenyi."
What he said was so prudent, and I had no doubts about his sincerity. I rolled his eyes at him and said, "Since you like it yourself, you should go for it."
Zhang Chengcai said: "Of course I understand that I have been fighting for it for so many years, but I have always understood in my heart that what Chen Yi likes is you, and I have liked you since I was a student, and I have no power to change this reality .”
What he said was so sincere that even I couldn't help but be moved. I don't understand why the youngest would turn a blind eye to Chengcai's hard work for so many years.
Thinking of the absurd thing with the third child that night, I actually regretted it very much in my heart. It was tantamount to ruining a girl's life.Although the concept of chastity is not as strong as it used to be, it is always a dishonorable thing.
Of course, I will never talk to Chengcai about this.
Zhang Chengcai said again at this time: "Huang Tong, don't you understand? Chen Yi uncovered this talisman for you. Her spiritual power is different from ordinary people. She must have felt something already, so she did it for you." Stop it, she is completely thinking of you."
After hearing what Zhang Chengcai said, I recalled the scene of the third child unraveling the talisman, so calm, without even the slightest hesitation.Up to now, I still can't figure out what kind of power made the third child lightly remove the spell with the blood curse.
I thought for a while and said, "To save Chen Yi, the only way to find the person who cast the blood curse is Wu Ban. Besides, there must be a secret hidden in that strange coffin, but we don't know it."
Zhang Chengcai said: "Many stories have disappeared in the dust of history. This is the charm of archaeology itself, and it is also something that has attracted me for so many years. Therefore, I have long planned to find historical relics."
That night, we chatted very late, and soon, the sound of Chengcai's snoring came, and I also began to adjust my internal breath to prepare for tomorrow's action.
The next day, Chengcai got up early, damn, this guy's spirit is surprisingly good, even beyond my imagination.
Although Cheng Cai looked clumsy, his hands and feet were quite nimble, and he quickly packed his things.
At about seven o'clock in the morning, we set off on time.
Cheng Cai seemed to be quite familiar with this place, he didn't ask for directions at all, but walked directly in one direction.
I followed behind him and asked curiously, "Chengcai, why are you so familiar with this place?"
Zhang Chengcai replied: "After the members of our archaeological team disappeared, I have been here several times."
With his answer, all doubts in my mind were resolved.
We didn’t talk all the way, maybe God favored us, today’s weather is surprisingly good, the sun has come out after nine o’clock, shining on the snow on both sides of the road, it’s indescribable beauty.
Our Dongjiang City is also considered a city in the south of the Yangtze River, so the number of times we can see snow is not very many.Although I also studied in Beijing for four years, I have never seen such a snow scene before me.
At noon, I finally arrived at Snow Valley Town.
It is said to be a small town, but it is actually a small village with a dozen families. Naturally, in such a village, you don't expect to see any shops.
The reason why this place became a natural village is entirely due to the advantages of geography. The mountains in the north completely block the north wind from the outside, so relatively speaking, this snow valley town is relatively warm.
Zhang Chengcai pointed to a mountain to the north of Xuegu Town and said, "Our archaeological team climbed up from that mountain, and then disappeared."
Hearing what Chengcai said, I focused my attention on that mountain.
This is a mountain with an altitude of more than 1000 meters. Among the many mountains in Xichuan, it is not so tall, and there is a narrow path on the slope. I think this is the most important reason why the archaeological team chose this path. s reason.
Zhang Chengcai said: "The many snow-capped mountains in Xichuan are rarely visited by people, and many peaks are potentially dangerous. If we start from safety, I think we should find a local guide. in order."
I nodded and said, "Okay, let's ask the local people before making a decision."
Chapter 21 Goddess Peak
Obviously, if we explore the entire snow mountain, we must rely on this snow valley town, because if we stay overnight in the snow mountain, the situation is very dangerous.
There are only a dozen or so families in this Xuegu town, all of whom are of the Qiang nationality. They basically make a living by hunting and nomadic herding.Fortunately, Zhang Chengcai is very familiar with the situation here. He has a little understanding of the customs of some ethnic minorities. In addition, Chinese has become very popular now, so we can finally communicate with them basically.
The next thing was much easier. I paid 1000 yuan a day to hire a herdsman to be our guide, and he provided both food and lodging for me and Chengcai.
This herdsman is an out-and-out old Qiang man, about fifty years old, and he is a strong man.Perhaps because of the poverty of his family, he has never been married in his life.
What we fancy is his understanding of the geographical situation of the Daxue Mountain, and he can avoid many dangers along the way, so I think the 1000 yuan is very worthwhile.
At noon, I had a full meal at the herdsman's house. I was used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, and then I went to eat the boiled mutton at the herdsman's house. It was really a special taste.
In the afternoon, I asked the herdsman about the geographical situation of Daxue Mountain. Fortunately, Chinese is now very popular. Although the old herdsman stuttered in Chinese, I could still understand the general meaning.
From the mouths of the herdsmen, I learned many things that I couldn't understand from the maps.
For example, the square garden of Daxue Mountain is hundreds of miles away, but the three peaks near Xuegu Town have their own characteristics.
It is these three peaks that surround Xuegu Town and make Xuegu Town in a warm embrace.
But even so, the traffic here is extremely inconvenient. After leaving the valley, there are almost all mountain roads, which makes the economy here never develop.
The old herdsman gave a detailed introduction to the three mountain peaks surrounding Xuegu Town, and pointed out the dangers of their emergence.
In the evening, I began to discuss with Chengcai which mountain to explore first. Chengcai said: "Head, because our archaeological team disappeared, these three surrounding peaks have been searched almost. The mountains in the distance begin."
The old herdsman nearby was a little surprised. He said: "The mountains farther away are inaccessible, and there are often wild animals infesting them. It is very dangerous. If you travel, you should think twice before going out."
It can be seen that the old herdsman is also very afraid to the depths.
Zhang Chengcai said: "Old man, I really trouble you this time, but this matter is really very important to us."
Maybe the price I offered was really high, the old herdsman said: "It is not impossible to take you to a farther mountain, but no matter what, you can't cross the Goddess Peak."
Hearing the old herdsman say this, I was also very surprised, and asked, "Why is that?"
The old herdsman replied: "The Goddess Peak is the most iconic building in our snow mountain. Going further, it is what our old Qiang people call the demon realm. Our old Qiang people have ancestors' precepts, and descendants are not allowed to cross the demon realm." .”
It's the first time I've heard of such a thing.I asked: "Old man, if we are willing to pay more, will you guide us?"
The old herdsman waved his hand and said, "We Qiang people value the ancestral precepts the most. No matter how much you pay, you won't dare to violate these ancestral precepts, and I don't even dare to cross the Goddess Peak."
At this time Zhang Chengcai spoke, and he said: "Huang Tong, the historical story I told you happened in the Qiang tribe. Thousands of years ago, the Qiang tribe here was very prosperous. However, since that story appeared, the Qiang tribe gradually weakened."
Zhang Chengcai could speak because he must have studied many historical materials of the Qiang people.I asked Chengcai, "What is the origin of the Goddess Peak?"
Zhang Chengcai said: "Among the snow-capped mountains, Shennv Peak is unique. It is not high, but it is very steep, and the whole mountain looks like a goddess, which is where Shennv Peak comes from."
I asked again: "What's going on with this demonic domain?"
Zhang Chengcai replied: "After Goddess Peak, the snow-capped mountains have entered a stage of extremely high terrain. The snow-capped mountains here are all very high above sea level, the normal ones are above 2000 meters, and the environment is very harsh, so there are no people at all; From the map, after the Goddess Peak, there are five other mountains in the Snow Mountain Range, and they are tightly straddling each other, forming the most spectacular scene of the Snow Mountain."
Undoubtedly, the demon domain mentioned by the old herdsman represents the five snow-capped mountains, the most mysterious place that no one has ever experienced.
I took out the map and carefully studied the five peaks deep in the snow mountain.
