Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

Chapter 16: Yunding Tiangong Enters the Mountain (Page 12)

Four days later, we arrived at Yingshan Village, which is relatively close to the Hengshan Forest Area. It was a miracle that the truck could reach here. The driver Guo Feng passed by the cliff without changing his expression.

When they arrived, they were surrounded by snow-capped mountains. There was no guest house in the village, so Chen Pi's men took people to the village committee to find a place to stay.

When I entered the village, I saw a group of children building snowmen in the open space to the south, with no one paying attention to them. I ran to the south to watch the children building snowmen and having snowball fights. After watching for a while, the children in the village did not mind my age and invited me to join.

"Brother, are you here to travel too?" A little girl with a double ponytail asked me.

"Yes, sister, is there anyone else coming over?" I asked.

The group of friends started talking all over the place. After gathering the information, the third uncle and his crew set out from this village a few days ago. "There was another pair of people heading towards the snow-capped mountains, but they didn't enter the village." Those should be Aning and the others.

"They took away the mute from the village," one child said.

After asking carefully, it turned out that Third Uncle and the others had found a guide in the village. I smiled and said, "Don't try to coax me. How can a mute be a guide? If something happens on the snow-capped mountains, it will be troublesome if we can't communicate."

"The mute is not really mute. He is a stranger. He doesn't like to talk to people in the village, so he is called mute." I was a little surprised when I heard this. The mute settled in the village ten years ago.

Then they told me that they saw the mute communicating with the group in incomprehensible words. I tried to speak a few words with Changsha dialect in Hangzhou dialect, and the child said that the tone was more like Changsha dialect.

Finally, I distributed the chocolates in my pocket to the children, and each of them went back to their respective homes with their mothers.

After staying in the village for a few days, renting a good horse, and after a lot of hard work, we found the guide Shunzi.

On the second day on the snow mountain, Fatty took a telescope and looked towards Girl Lake, then handed it to Wu Xie and said, "We are in trouble."

Through the bushes, a huge team of horses could be seen, and a woman among them was detecting something with a radar-like tool. Wu Xie took the telescope and said: "Aning!"

Chen Pi Asi looked at it, smiled contemptuously, and said, "Doing well in the exam means we are on the right track. Keep going and ignore them."

Wu Xie took a telescope and looked at it for a long time. After separating our people from Chen Pi's guy, he said: "I looked at them one by one, and there is no third uncle. But since the third uncle may fall into their hands, it is unlikely that he will have too much freedom, and he is not allowed to be locked in the tent. .”

At this point, everyone is in trouble. There are many people below, and half of them are carrying five or six postures on their backs to cover their positions. The fat man was so greedy. : "There is no need for conflict now. How will we deal with it if we fight? Is it possible to use the washbasin as a shield and use sanitary napkins to beat them?"

"Third Uncle should not be down there. People in the village said that Third Uncle and the others left two days earlier than Aning." After saying that, the four of them looked at me with surprise on their faces.

The fat man patted me on the shoulder: "My little comrade's intelligence work has been implemented very well." After saying that, he shouted to Chen Pi Asi to discuss how to defeat Bumucang with a washbasin and sanitary napkin.

We continued walking up until there were some dilapidated wooden houses and wire gates in front of us, with slogans written on them: "The territory of the motherland is sacrosanct and inviolable."

Shunzi said that this was a supply station for the snow mountain outpost, but it was later abandoned. After resting here for a night, it had already started to snow when we got up, and the temperature dropped suddenly. We southerners were all stiff and cold. When we first set off, we felt that our hands and feet were not our own.

After crossing the snow line, there were fewer and fewer markers, and strong winds picked up at noon. Everyone could only rest and eat some dry food, and wait for the wind to subside before leaving.

After sitting on the snow sledge, after the initial freshness, I felt very cold. The fat man fell into the snow several times because he was overweight. At first I still had the energy to curse the weather, but later I didn't have the energy to complain. According to the fat man's style, even the words he cursed God were frozen in his mouth and he couldn't spit them out.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was already gray and dark, and only the strong wind was blowing, making people stagger around.

"There seems to have been an avalanche here. We can't walk together in a group now. There are snow bubbles under the snow. If you get stuck in, you can't get out. We can only take shelter at the sentry post above." After finishing speaking, Shunzi was about to lead the team to the sentry post. Post.

I grabbed him and said, "You said, if there is an avalanche, it's not certain that the sentry post can be found. Is there any other place?"

Shunzi thought for a while and said: "There is a hot spring in front of the sentry post. If the sentry post is buried, go to the hot spring."

According to the plot, the group changed their route to the Little Saint Snow Mountain. When they arrived at the valley below the Little Saint Snow Mountain, it was already the evening of the same day. Set up camp and light a fire to cook. It was still early, so the fat man pestered Shunzi and asked if there were any hot springs around.

However, Shunzi doesn't come here often, and the hot springs are not clear, but there is an ice burial place for ancestors not far from the camp. Except for the person who took care of Chen Pi Asi, the others followed Shunzi to see the ice burial group.

On the way, everyone chatted about one thing or another, especially the young man named Ye Cheng, who never stopped talking. As we were chatting, we came up with the topic of me dressing up as a woman.

"When I opened my eyes the next day, there was a big old man in the car." That's what Ye Cheng said.

"Comrade Xiaokang's appearance, figure, and voice. If the little brother hadn't pointed it out, I would have thought that he was promoting business at the train station." After the fat man finished speaking, he gave me a wink: "I didn't expect that the little brother had some secrets in private. This hobby.”

"I'm telling you, Fat Brother, why do these words change your taste when they come out of your mouth?" I went over and put my arm around the fat man's shoulders, and the two of them put their arms around each other. "Becoming so obscene."

When they arrived at the place, Shunzi lowered a cold firework and saw shadows of various sizes huddled in the ice at the bottom of the ice valley, so densely packed that only small black dots remained at the bottom.

"Among these corpses, are there any examples of Dongxia's efforts during the construction of the Spiritual Palace?" the fat man suddenly asked.

"I'm sure there is none." Zhang Qiling looked at the cold light gradually dimming in the depths of the ice valley, not knowing what he was thinking.

After watching the ice burial, we found a small hot spring. Several people soaked their feet in the hot spring and returned to the camp feeling warm.

After dinner, the wind picked up again outside, so we got into our sleeping bags and rested early. I could still fall asleep at first, but the snoring in the tent behind me started one after another, as if a whole renovation team was starting work.

I climbed out of the tent to take a breath, and when I came out, I happened to see Wu Xie and Shunzi sitting in a row.

"Can't sleep?" Wuxie looked at me crawling out of the tent.

"It's too noisy." I dragged Ha Qie to Wu Xie's side. I filled the stove with some more fuel to make the surroundings warmer.

I just sat aside and listened to Wu Xie and Shunzi, who talked about ancient tombs, local customs, and interesting things about the mountains and forests. The more they talked, the more energetic they became, and I became increasingly sleepy.

It seems to be a habit I developed when I was hiding from the storm in Xisha. I always feel like there is someone beside me to make me feel at ease.

"Boss...Actually, what are you doing in the mountains? Can you tell me?" Shunzi asked suddenly.

I replied in the name of Hache. "You don't know, with the improvement of living standards, those city dwellers always like to go into the woods, which is called returning to nature. What do foreigners call them to explore the earth? Let me tell you, it's just for support."

Shunzi sneered twice, and the atmosphere instantly cooled down.
