Thriller Tour Group

"ah--!!"

Ding's eyes were filled with scarlet red. The severe pain and panic made him scream miserably. A huge sense of death crisis surrounded him. Ding hurriedly wanted to retreat, but he was unwilling to do so.

He threw the flying claw based on his feeling, but his accuracy was not good enough. He only heard a crashing sound. The flying claw caught the eye socket of the black stone skull inlaid with emerald, knocking the 'emerald' loose, but failed to completely remove it from the giant skull. Take it out from the fish's mouth.

When the flying claws were retracted, there were only 'emeralds' and a black stone surrounding the 'eye sockets' in the hook. Ding Yi did not dare to take it with his hands, and hurriedly put it into a sealed pure gold box - this was originally his Prepared for the grimace behind him.

With this simple movement, the nails on his fingers fell off like pieces of paper, and the skin on his fingers cracked, like sores covered with scarlet pus.

There was no need to delay any longer. The death crisis wiped out greed. Ding Yi immediately retreated away from the lake. At this time, his condition was extremely bad. Although he was clearly on the shore, his body was shaking and unstable as if he was stepping on mud, and he was top-heavy. .

Intense, unbearable itching and pain intertwined. Ding's whole body seemed to have a high fever. His whole body was obviously extremely hot, but he only felt cold and was shivering.

Regardless of the distress points, he hurriedly bought a bottle of universal healing medicine from the hotel. After drinking half of the bottle, he installed a nozzle and sprayed all over his body. He sprayed two bottles of expensive liquid medicine worth 5,000 points, and the maddening itching feeling subsided slightly.

"Fuck it."

Ding Yi cursed angrily, remembering angrily that the Dragon God was the source of four hundred kinds of diseases in the world. If the dragon god is angry, he will sow the seeds of plague in the world.

Ding Yi didn't take this sentence to heart before. After all, this is a difficult journey without supernatural elements. The more than 400 diseases mentioned by the successor of the Eagle Flute may only refer to some kind of viral bacteria carried by the arowana. kind.

What's more, what this descendant of the Eagle Flute is talking about is bullshit! It was clearly stated that if enough sacrifices were given to it, the remains of King Shang Hung would be obtained. However, Ding Yi saw with his own eyes that the dragon fish had signs of vomiting after eating the sacrifices, but it did not vomit anything. Isn't this a joke?

If he hadn't shined a strong flashlight on it, he wouldn't have been able to see the black stone skull. Wouldn't that be a waste of effort? ! Thinking of this, Ding Yi became unwilling to give in. He was already injured anyway. If he had been more ruthless and taken out the entire skull, it would have been better than just a few stone fragments on it.

But looking at Dangrayongcuo again, the dragon fish returned to the lake and disappeared. There was only a dirty bloodstain on the lakeside, and everything was messy. Ding Yi staggered about to walk back, but he paused after taking a step, his face constantly changing, and then he turned around furiously and reluctantly with a stinky face, and returned to the shore.

"I don't know if Ding Yi still has the points to deal with this mess."

Mao Xiaole drank a Coke with ice, ate a few chicken drumsticks with Ding Yi's bloody face, clicked his tongue, and counted on his fingers: "At least there must be another bottle of sterilizing and anti-virus detergent, and a bottle of radiation removal agent, he just said Use two bottles of elixir, don't empty it out."

"You don't have to worry about him exploiting Sanshui. Good guy, is Sanshui the person he will exploit?"

Wang Pengpai was also holding the family bucket, but his aesthetics were normal. Seeing that Ding Yi was covered in ulcers and pus, looking like a human skin skeleton, his appetite was greatly reduced, and he muttered: "You are such a shameful piece of trash, you don't even know how to get a cloak." "Cover yourself", and ate French fries one after another.

The journeys in the hotel are all in the real world. Since most of them are exploring restricted areas, they will encounter many factors that can affect the local natural environment. In this aspect, the journey of supernatural beings is actually not bad. Killing the ghost king and the like will not damage the ecological environment. But like in northern Tibet, without the supernatural factors, the black stone jade head in the belly of the dragon fish is definitely a high radiation, bringing Big bombs containing various terrorist virus strains.

Next to Dangra Yumcuo Lake is Wenbunan Village. If it is not handled well, it may bring about a cruel plague. This cannot be entirely based on the conscience of the tour guide or tourists. Fortunately, the hotel has unspoken rules, which can prevent Ding Yi from being noticed by the residents of Wenbunan Village and the local government when he is carrying out a killing ritual by the lake, and can also force him to clean up his tail before leaving.

Even if Ding Yi is so distressed that his points are bleeding, he still has to complete the cleanup. If he doesn't have enough points, he can get a loan from a hotel.

Anyway, this is not something that the viewers watching the live broadcast outside the venue care about. Now Ding Yi is the most noisy in the broadcast room. In addition to calling Ding Yi a loser and ugly, he is more arguing.

Why did Ding Yi honestly perform the sacrifice, and just use a strong flashlight to make the dragon fish spit out the black stone emerald skull? And last night, Wei Xun obviously went too far. He snatched the sacrifice from the Arowana's mouth and shook it with a flashlight. He even teamed up with the snow leopard to leave countless scars on the Arowana, but the Arowana didn't punish him?

It seems that Ding Yi is indeed a little unjust.

[Can the attitude towards beauties and ugly people be the same? Even if Arowana is a beast, he still knows that Wei Xun is good-looking.]

[Perhaps this is talent. Ding Yi wanted to eat swan meat. It was a great pleasure to end up like this idiot.]

Here, Mao Xiaole took his mobile phone and opened the Kuitu APP. After hiding his identity, he started blowing irrationally and randomly, extremely happy. Many people were led astray by him, but there were also some who were sensible.

[I think there are a few reasons in total]

[First, before and after issues. Judging from the remains of the bone mound in Nancun, someone may have been secretly offering sacrifices to the dragon fish during this period. The dragon fish is used to being fed by humans and has no wariness towards humans, so it is equivalent to a slap in the face by Wei Xun. I was so stunned that I was still eagerly waiting to be fed]

[Second, the title of Wei Xun’s wild soul made the dragon fish more tolerant to him. Even if the dragon fish was once raised and the Xiangxiong Kingdom was destroyed, it would definitely have been a wild animal in this lake for a long time, and it could be regarded as a wild animal. Category of animals]

[The third is the snow leopard that Wei Xun brought with him. Snow leopards have always been snow elves in Tibetan areas, holy beasts in snow mountains, and mounts for battles in sacred mountains. As they are both species in Tibetan myths and legends, there may indeed be a relative relationship between the snow leopard and the arowana. 】

[Looking back at yesterday's battle, we can clearly see that Wei Xun only opened the mouth of the arowana except shaking it with a flashlight - and the mouth of the arowana itself was stuck with some kind of glue. As it swallowed the sacrifice, it finally Always open. From this aspect, Wei Xun cannot be considered too harmful to the dragon fish. Most of the wounds on its body were left by snow leopards]

[As for Ding Yi, it was really his bad luck. The dragon fish had just become hostile to humans and was already on guard. He sent poisonous snakes and grimaces to bite the dragon fish. This was actually better than Wei Xun opening the mouth of the dragon fish. To be worse, of course, the most important thing is that the dragon fish has already vomited the wet corpses and skeletons to Wei Xun. If the angry dragon fish vomits out again, naturally nothing good will come out of it]

[PS This is the analysis of Bai Xiaosheng, I am just a hard-working porter]

"Tch, Bai Xiaosheng deserted again and didn't keep an eye on the Inca Sun Gate."

Mao Xiaole pouted and looked at the barrage and praised, "He is indeed the boss of Bai Xiaosheng", "Boss, I understand", "What the boss said makes sense!" ’, put down the phone uninterested.

Wang Pengpai said cheerfully: "The captain is also in there, isn't he? Brother Bai has a cold face and a warm heart. He must be worried about the captain's situation."

"What's going on? The captain had a lot of fun playing with Teacher Wei."

Mao Xiaole was a little bit sour: "The two of them have wild minds and posted stickers together. I think Teacher Wei wants to take the snow leopard home and raise it."

"Indeed, don't you think it's miraculous if two wild minds come together?"

Wang Pengpai rubbed his chin and felt strange: "I feel that the captain is in a better condition, what do you think? If this is the case, we don't have to drill hard to the 30 degrees north latitude, and we can relax a little."

"It's hard to say. Didn't even the astrologers say before that only by finding enough Maria butterfly fragments can the captain's strange disease be alleviated?"

Mao Xiaole was skeptical: "Didn't you see that the captain couldn't sleep at all before entering Tibet, and the killing couldn't be alleviated? There is only one fifth of the brigade, which is completely insufficient. The more the better."

"yes."

Wang Pengpai sighed: "If the journey to northern Tibet was not just a difficult journey, not a super dangerous one, just looking at Wei Xun's few operations, I would have thought that he would have gone to the 30th North Latitude."

"Regardless of the modern subdivisions of Tibet's various regions, if we only talk about the Zhangzhong Dynasty in the past, the entire Zhangzhong Kingdom did span the 30th degree of north latitude. It can also be said that the Zhangzhung Dynasty was on the 30th degree of north latitude."

Mao Xiaole lost his sleep when he mentioned that Sanshui might be doing something big, and said enthusiastically: "Maybe it's really possible?"

Although this journey to northern Tibet cannot directly open up a new journey to 30 degrees north latitude, it is very possible to find important clues! In order to rediscover their journey to the 30th degree north latitude, their return journey went to Tibet at least six or seven times a year. No matter who talks about Tibet's various historical materials and legends, it can be said that they are all treasures.

Most Tibetan historical materials date from the seventh century AD, because in the seventh century AD Songtsan Gampo sent 16 smart young people to Tianzhu to study Sanskrit. In the end, 15 of them died in a foreign country, and only one of them returned successfully and returned to Tubo. Later, it was combined with Sanskrit to create Tibetan.

From then on, the Tibetan people had their own written language and their history could be recorded. But history is always the history of the successful. In fact, as early as the seventh century AD, there was a vast and extremely powerful dynasty on the Tibetan Plateau. That was the Shangshung Dynasty. It also had its own text, Shangshung Wen, which respected the Bon religion. As the state religion, from western Tibet, to northern India, and then to Pakistan, these places are where Shangzhong originally belonged in ancient times.

However, in the eighth century AD, Tubo destroyed the Shangshung dynasty. Dunhuang documents record that Songtsen Gampo's sister Saimaga married Li Mixiu, the last generation of Shangshung king, as his concubine. He was assassinated while offering sacrifices to the lake. Tubo conquered Shang Shung, Tibetan Buddhism also replaced the Yongzhong Bon religion, and the history of the Shang Shung dynasty was also lost in the rolling wheels of history.

According to literary and historical records, when the ancient Zhangzhung Dynasty was at its peak, it was divided into three districts: upper, middle and lower. Each district had 10,000 households and a total population of one million. The upper district was the area west of the Gangdise Mountains, including Persia, In the areas of Ladakh and Baladi, Qionglong Silver City is the royal capital. The central area is the area east of the Gangdise Mountains, including today's eastern Ngari and western Nagqu areas, with Dangraqiongzong as its capital*.

It was also the site of the Xiangshung Dynasty that Wei Xun and his team were exploring during their trip.

However, a huge group of tombs has been discovered at the site on the side of Qionglong Yincheng. Nearly 1,800 tombs constitute an area of ​​more than 100,000 square meters. A large number of pottery, stone tools, iron tools and bone tools were unearthed, and there was even a statue. Bronze double-faced statue. However, at the Xiangxiong ruins on Qiongzong Mountain, only dilapidated watchtowers and earth-and-stone city wall ruins were discovered.

Those underground secret passages and the royal city have all collapsed due to wind erosion, and no trace of the grandeur of the past can be seen.

Generally speaking, ordinary people cannot excavate more ruins of such ruins. Instead, they are more likely to have extraordinary and unnatural powers. This should be the focus of the brigade and tour guides.

However, most high-risk journeys in Tibet are concentrated in Gang Rinpoche and Qomolangma. Journeys related to northern Tibet are rare, and most of them are below the risk level. Because the Tibetan area is vast, the scenic spots are far away, and there are many snowy mountains and lakes, most of them are "exploration" journeys. Travelers should spend most of their time in the car. The danger points are the harsh environment of the plateau and the wild animals.

Most of the exploration-type journeys can only be regarded as difficult level journeys. A journey like this one to northern Tibet, which specifically involves the Zhangzhong Ruins and Xiaolin Temple, is actually very rare. It was his good fortune that Ding Yi was able to take this trip. It seemed that his luck was similar to that of Bing Jiu who took the trip to Xiangxi. No wonder there were many tour guide alliances wooing him.

Passengers in the Grand Brigade cannot enter lower-level journeys unless they use special methods. Like everyone in the returning brigade, if the entire brigade moves together, then the only special journeys they can take are the year-end celebration journeys, a very small number of extremely dangerous journeys, and the journey to the 30th North Latitude.

Therefore, most of the large brigades move separately, so that they can go on most extremely dangerous journeys.

For example, Wang Pengpai's infiltration into the super-dangerous and beautiful Xiangxi has already crossed the line. The Maoshan Sect's divine talisman he carried was like stacking a murder book, layer after layer, pushing his strength to a high level. And An Xuefeng's journey to the difficult level this time has turned into a snow leopard without any human consciousness. This is actually very dangerous.

Therefore, groups are set up under the Grand Brigade to actively recruit talented newcomers, precisely to extend the reach of exploration to middle and low-level journeys. It is important to know that it is possible to obtain clues during medium and low-level journeys. For example, the video tape related to the address of Shambala Cave obtained by Dream Chaser was accidentally obtained by a traveler who had received his favor during a dangerous-level journey.

But the only way to harvest this kind of clues from mid- to low-level journeys is to complete branch attractions. However, this kind of thing is too difficult for mid-to-low-level travelers. This is why Wei Xun is attracted by countless new observers from big tour groups. s concern.

Newcomer! Extraordinary talent! The first time I entered the attraction, I completed the first part of the branch attraction and got the gold-plated silver skull and the golden eagle head wet corpse! And Wei Xun is not the type to rely on his teammates, he can act alone!

This is a super scarce talent resource. Wei Xun is a complete newcomer. Although with his current strength, it is only a matter of time before he reaches the top level. But he can at least go through several difficult and dangerous journeys before ascending to the top. If he could complete several branch attractions every time, wouldn't it be a big cornucopia!

In fact, the Grand Brigade Group pays attention to new tourists, and naturally some people in the Tour Guide Alliance also pay attention to new tour guides. This is the same as the Grand Brigade. But to be honest, new tour guides are even less able to stand on the wall than new tourists.

The tour guides selected people who were on the verge of death. Logically speaking, they should try their best to open up new attractions and earn points to extend the countdown to death once they enter the journey. But the death of a passenger can bring points to the tour guide.

Should you risk your life to extend your life, or let strangers die to extend your life?

Most of those who had good intentions and could not bear to oppress tourists and went on their own adventures died.

On the contrary, the tour guides who were comfortable and oppressed tourists survived more. Hotels naturally provide tour guides with high status and a relatively superior environment. Unlike tourists who are double-oppressed by tour guides and journeys, tour guides are even less willing to take risks.

After all, opening up new attractions means danger. Those new tour guides have weak titles, few props, and few points. If they want to improve their strength, they can only lower the death countdown and use desperate tactics. But the reason they entered the hotel was to increase the countdown to death.

Now, in order to gain points, we have to actively commit suicide to lower the death countdown and take risks. Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?

People are selfish when facing death. If he is truly fearless of death and cannot pass the test of survival, he will not become a reserve tour guide at all.

And anyone who has a strong desire to survive, in this abnormal environment, will sooner or later be forced to either die or fall, and collude with the darkness.

Ding Yi is a rare low-level tour guide who is very hardworking and ambitious, so he can attract the attention of the Tour Guide Alliance. It can be said that if he can really open up new attractions this time, many big tour guide alliances will definitely extend a hand of friendship to him.

In fact, even if he was played by Wei Xun from beginning to end, seeing Ding Yi still risking his life to grab the black stone jade skull with his hook claws in such a critical situation, he also got Approved by some big tour guides.

Ding Yi is ruthless enough, both to tourists and to himself. Tour guides who are ruthless enough have a future, while those who are greedy and ambitious enough are easy to control.

If Ding Yi hadn't been lucky enough to hold the gold box in front of the successor of the Eagle Flute and make such a stupid move, there would probably be more tour guides who 'appreciated' Ding Yi.

"Dear, do you think this Ding Yi is really stupid?"

The beautiful woman in a purple cloak raised the chin of the maid next to her, smiling tremblingly with joy:

"He actually dared to show the golden box to the Heir of the Eagle Flute? Seeing that the Heir of the Eagle Flute saw Ding Yi's face, he didn't even let him say anything and immediately drove him away. I see this Ding Yi is already on the assassination list of the Descendants of the Eagle Flute.”

She scratched the maid's chin like a funny cat. The woman was leaning on the sofa, stretching her perfectly proportioned body. She supported her head on her hands, her full lips were curved, and her smile was charming:

"Or is it that Ding Yi's behavior is actually in the atmosphere? After watching it, I wanted to bring him back to be a comedian. I usually just keep him entertained, so I just want to be like Yi Forty-Nine."

"Forty-nine, are you right?"

The beautiful woman asked with a chuckle. In her palace-like palace, in addition to many maids serving her closely, there were also many dolls in different poses and dressed in stylish clothes standing in the distance. These figures sit or stand, with exquisite and lifelike faces. They were placed in various poses, in small groups.

The three dolls on the left are dressed in Western medieval dresses, sitting around a pure white table, holding teacups in their hands, as if they are enjoying afternoon tea. On the right side are several puppets dressed as crew members and captains. They are carrying various things as if they are about to go to sea. There are so many of these dolls that they almost fill the room, and you can't see the edge at a glance.

Unlike the maids serving beside him, his movements were natural, but his eyes were gray. There was no movement in those dolls, just like sculptures, but their eyes were alive, and occasionally they were full of dead silence and numbness.

"You're right, I can only amuse you."

The hair of all the dolls sounded at the same time, and the male voice tried its best to be respectful, but could not hide the pain. The body was alienated into a monster and was forcibly divided into hundreds of parts to be used as wigs for the dolls. For Ghost Yi Forty-Nine, this was not only physical torture, it was also a humiliation of self-esteem and humiliation to the dust.

But he messed up two things in a row, so it's no wonder he was punished.

"Actually, I'm very curious, Forty-nine, how did you disguise yourself so well, and I didn't realize until now that you are a loser who can't stand up to the wall?"

The woman was deeply puzzled and said: "In the Shepherd Alliance, you can be regarded as being trained by me. But look at yourself, you can't compare with Bingjiu, and you can't find Bing250. Could it be that you are my puppet master?" I really misunderstood, do you really only use my doll as a wig?"

In Zuimei Xiangxi, Bingjiu opened up a new scenic spot at 30 degrees north latitude and became famous in one fell swoop. In comparison, in Zuimei Xiangxi, Bingjiu was in a particularly embarrassing situation and almost lost his life. It became a complete shame. .

The wigs did not dare to speak, and every strand of their hair was trembling with fear, as if this beautiful woman was the most terrifying devil.

"It's almost the year-end celebration, and it's time to meet that bitch Black Widow again. I heard that the Devil Merchant, the top newcomer on the West End Rising Star Guide List, has defected to her. During the year-end celebration, he will probably stand behind the Black Widow - there can be a devil standing behind her. Businessman, I want to have Bing250 standing behind me. Isn’t that too much?”

The puppet master said sadly: "The Life-seeker has refused to participate in the year-end ceremony for several years, and the Dream Chaser is not a gregarious person. As a first-class tour guide in the East District, I have to find some face no matter what. I can't lose my status, right?"

The puppet master spoke coquettishly, playing with his nails, and said casually: "If you are really useless, then I can only let you kill Wei Xun. The strongest newcomer, huh? I heard that many brigades want to introduce him. Him. I really like his head, it’s really nice and it doesn’t look out of place even if it’s mounted on my doll.”

"well--"

The puppet master sighed deeply and said sincerely: "I'm good enough for you. At first, I wanted to have a tour guide behind you who could be on the Homecoming List. Unfortunately, you lost to Bingjiu. Later, I thought about having a tour guide behind you who could be on the Rising Stars List. Bing250, it’s a pity that you can’t find it. Now I just want Wei Xun to be my new puppet-Yi49, can you do it?”

"Promise to complete the mission!"

Yi Forty-Nine was categorical, and every hair on the top of the puppets' hair was filled with determination.

"That's good."

The puppet master hooked his fingers as white and slender as green onions, and the wigs on the puppets' heads flew up and gathered together, forming a tangle of thousands of hair strands that kept squirming and making harsh friction sounds. Huge monster. Just one look could make people lose their SAN. She casually smashed a bottle of SAN value recovery potion, and the squirming monster finally returned to its human form.

"I want you to get ahead of those brigades, sneak into the journey, and bring me Wei Xun's head."

The puppet master chuckled and clapped softly: "If you can't do this, then you can just go and make a wig for Ding Yi. When the year-end ceremony is held, you two will work together as comedians to make your debut and make everyone laugh. It’s your only value.”

Hearing what she said, Yi Forty-Nine shivered, and his sallow face turned pale. He did not dare to say anything more, lowered his head, gave the puppet master a fist, and disappeared in a hurry. Just before leaving the virtual hall, Yi 49 took one last look at the live broadcast screen and saw that Wei Xun, who had left the team, had found a complete secret passage leading to the ancient Xiangxiong Palace in the Xiangxiong ruins.

* *

Time went back to when Ding Yi was still watching Yue Chenghua and others eating fish for breakfast, and Wei Xun had already left the team. As nimble as a blue sheep, he climbed the steep mountain with the snow leopard, and in an instant he disappeared from the sight of other travelers.

The Zhangzhong Kingdom was built on Qiongzong Mountain, which was in the Daguo Mountains. The mountain road to the ruins goes around the mountain. It is blocked by a large number of piles of rocks, so it is a long detour. You have to walk more than fifteen kilometers of mountain road to reach Qiongzong Mountain, and then walk another five kilometers up the mountain. Go to the main location of the Shang Shung ruins.

The mountain road is rugged, and the passengers are carrying heavy loads. It takes more than two hours to walk 20 kilometers alone, and there is no time to rest. This is already the speed of the Red Army when they seized the Dadu River (ten kilometers per hour) , that is to say, the passengers each have their own title, and those selected by the hotel are all in good physical condition. As long as there is no intrigue, mutual help, and they set off early, they can still finish the journey.

But Wei Xun didn't have this problem. He and Snow Leopard took a shortcut together. Snow Leopard cleared the way and chose relatively safe roads. No wild beast dared to approach. Wei Xun was possessed by a fox fairy, so he always paid attention to the snow leopard's movements while climbing mountains, and remembered them carefully in his mind.

Transforming into a snow leopard is indeed good, and Wei Xun also cherishes this rare opportunity to get along with wild snow leopards in the wild. If you fail to catch it this time, you may have to go to the zoo if you want to see snow leopards again.

The mountains in Tibetan areas are barbaric. Although the traces of commercialization have become more and more serious in recent years, there are still very few traces of modern humans in mountains like this in northern Tibet. Especially the trail that the snow leopard took Wei Xun on can hardly be said to be 'Road', because there is a cliff of several hundred meters behind you, and looking down is really dizzying. There is not much vegetation on the mountain, and everything you look at is desolate.

In fact, Tibetan areas are not as lush and lush as everyone imagines, and are not a paradise on earth, especially in the desolate northern Tibet. The steep brown mountains are made up of piles of earth and rocks, and they look even more strange and desolate under the gloomy sky, as if this is an abandoned corner of the world. Everyone has disappeared, and only Wei Xun and the snow leopard are left to depend on each other. The loneliness of words.

But in fact, Wei Xun discovered several caves with artificial traces on this steep and twisting rock wall! These caves are like honeycombs on the rock wall and are completely integrated with the surrounding environment. Wei Xun went into a few caves to check and saw that the caves were not big, neither deep nor high. They could basically only accommodate an adult man. Sitting, lying down or standing up is impossible.

In some deeper caves, there are many text patterns carved on the rock walls, which are so blurry that they are difficult to identify. Only the maroon swastika is very obvious.

This should be the "practice cave" of Bon monks in the past. Bon religion has its own mysterious way of practice. They advocate integrating into nature and want to achieve perfection in nature. The more they practice in the highest, most difficult and most mysterious places, The more you can cultivate, the greater your achievements will be.

Wei Xun also found that the higher the place, the richer the characters and patterns left in the caves. Even when he was about to reach the top of the mountain, he discovered several petroglyphs inside several extremely steep caves.

Different from the petroglyphs of stick figures, these petroglyphs depict in great detail a man wearing a feather crown and venetian leaves. This man is standing in front of large piles of cattle and sheep bones, as if he is performing some kind of ceremony. , and behind the pile of bones are two vertical and four horizontal reddish-brown lines, like an abstract ladder, with gods, Buddhas, sun and moon drawn on the top of the 'ladder to heaven'.

"This should be a Bon wizard worshiping the gods of the sun and moon."

Wei Xun said to himself that there was not much space in the cave, so he had to squat down and raise his head to see, not to mention that the snow leopard that was looking forward saw him getting into another cave and leaned in.

But obviously such a big snow leopard would definitely not be able to squeeze in even if it were stacked with Wei Xun. Just like when Wei Xun entered the cave before, after finding that the size of the cave was not suitable for the two of them, the snow leopard would push his head against Wei Xun's shoulder as if silently urging him.

"Wait a minute, I'll take a look."

Wei Xun said perfunctorily that maybe it was because he had been with the snow leopard for a long time, or maybe it was because of the title of wild mind. He could understand more and more what the snow leopard meant - it felt that Wei Xun was looking for a suitable place to make a nest.

The dens of snow leopards in the wild are generally found in rock caves or crevices. They are fixed residences, and they usually stay here for several years after choosing a nest. Therefore, nesting site selection is very important for snow leopards.

Based on the experience of a veteran wild snow leopard, Baobao naturally felt that the nest chosen by Wei Xun was not good. And every time he chose the wrong one, it was obvious that Wei Xun had no experience in building nests at all, so he was building a nest blindly. Therefore, the snow leopard took the trouble to lure Wei Xun time and time again, taking him to those good nests on the sunny slopes, away from the crowd, safe and suitable for snow leopards.

The key point is to accommodate two snow leopards.

Wei Xun is much more patient with wild animals than with people. Who can resist a clean, beautiful and powerful big cat? Wei Xun likes to raise big cats, and the Maine Coon cat at home is the largest among the cats. Xiaoxue has perfectly tapped into his hobby.

"Let's go."

Wei Xun pinched the snow leopard's ears lovingly, came out of the cave, and followed it to the top of the mountain. After reaching the top of the mountain, it suddenly became clear. In the distance were the rolling dark brown mountains. Two towering peaks stood among the mountains. They were not connected to the surrounding mountains, and the color was closer to bare rocks. They looked like they stood out among the chickens. , very eye-catching.

This is Qiongzong Mountain. The relics of the Zhangzhong Dynasty are on this mountain. When Wei Xun looked at the ruins from a distance, he saw that there were huge, endless remains of earth and stone city walls on the east and west sides of Qiongzong Mountain. It is a group of earth-colored buildings.

From the time he went up the mountain to now, it has only just reached 7:45, and there is still a lot of free time before the meeting time of 10:30. At this time, Ding Yi was still in pain and buying cattle and sheep from the villagers of Wenbunan Village. This showed the benefits of leaving the team.

The Amara who the descendant of the Eagle Flute said was living in a tent on the mountainside of Qiongzong, but Wei Xun was in no hurry to find her. He unfolded the thin thangka map made of human skin and looked at it corresponding to the Shangshung ruins. Although the descendant of the Eagle Flute said that this was the map that led to the Longshen Waterway under the Shangshung Palace in the past, in fact, it was also drawn on the map. He learned a lot of information about the Shang Shung Kingdom.

It's just that this map is really oriented and not as clearly marked as modern maps. Wei Xun only recognized a specially marked building that seemed to be an important building of the temple. The main reason was that there were nine swastikas drawn under the temple logo, and there were also many weird and weird symbols, such as skulls, strange eyes, and lying horizontally. Human shapes, egg-like balls, etc.

But it is almost impossible to match the locations on the human skin map with the ruins in front of you. After all, the ruins in front of you have been exposed to wind and rain for thousands of years. Dangrayongcuo is in an earthquake-prone area. Qiongzong has also experienced this. Several earthquakes have caused almost fatal damage to the ruins.

"Tsk, it would be great if Xu Yang was here."

Walking to the Xiangxiong ruins, all he could see were dilapidated ruins that were the same color as the soil. Wei Xun sighed. Suddenly, out of the blue, he lifted up the forelimbs of the snow leopard next to him and pushed the weight.

snow leopard:? ?

"I feel like you're still not heavy enough."

Wei Xun failed to pick up the snow leopard. After all, considering that Xiaoxue was larger than other snow leopards, it weighed at least 80 kilograms.

But this is not enough.

"It would be nice to have a truck come in."

Wei Xun said with sincerity and regret, unaware of how insane what he said was.

"If there is a secret passage underground, you can find out by pressing it."

Many relics were discovered in this way. Just like when a temple in the Jiarong area was rebuilt, the truck transporting stone and wood was so heavy that it collapsed the ground, revealing a very deep and huge hole. Only then did the monks discover Underneath this place are the ruins of an ancient temple! In the 1990s, the Taliban blew up the largest Buddha statue in Afghanistan. As a result, the surrounding ground collapsed at the same time, revealing many Buddhist scriptures and relics hidden underground.

When we arrived at Wei Xun's place, he didn't drive a truck in, and he didn't carry a bomb with him. Just by walking with Snow Leopard to the Xiangxiong ruins, it would be impossible to find a cave or a secret passage just by stepping on it based on their weight. Not realistic.

But Wei Xun had his own way. He carefully avoided the snow leopard, turned his back, and then took out the fox cub and the gold-plated and silver-plated skull, and said kindly: "Come, smell it, and then look for it."

You can't just let the donkey grind without giving it food. Wei Xun added: "If you find it, I will reward you with a bone."

He took a rather heartbroken breath and emphasized: "Those are the gold-encrusted bones that come from the fish's belly."

Fox Cub:? ?

What else can I do? I know my master, but I still have to be his dog with tears in my eyes. The mink broke away and jumped out of Wei Xun's hand. He ran very fast and disappeared into the ruins of the wall in the blink of an eye. Wei Xun was left wandering around the ruins with the snow leopard. Wei Xun did not put all his hope in the mink cub. He looked at the human skin map again with great confidence, and then headed towards where he intuitively thought the temple was. Go.

It's just that it's very difficult to walk through the ruins. There are collapsed earth walls and rocks everywhere that were cracked by the earthquake. Many of the earth and rocks have become brittle and crumbling due to wind and rain. When they came to a strange place, Snow Leopard was extremely vigilant and took the initiative to walk in front of Wei Xun, paying attention to the surroundings and specially choosing a solid path for him.

But Wei Xun deliberately stepped on those places that looked unstable and had cracks in the ground. The snow leopard, who had failed to lead the way several times, was helpless, but he could not persuade him to leave no matter what. He insisted on exploring the way ahead. Wei Xun paid attention to the surrounding scene while paying attention to the snow leopard, which saved him from missing his paw and falling into the pit. .

Sure enough, the hard work paid off, perhaps because they came from the Thriller Global Hotel, and the journey itself was a 'exploration' type. Compared to the archaeological staff who worked hard to find clues in various documents and classics, it was easier for the travelers to find them. Various relics.

But half an hour later, when good news came from the fox cub that it seemed to have discovered a secret passage, Wei Xun was walking through the ruins of a low earth-and-stone city wall. He noticed cracks extending outward at the roots of the earthen wall of the ruins. , so I walked there deliberately, almost sinking every step of the way.

But this time the subsidence was different from before. The earth and rocks under his feet suddenly shattered, and there was a large space below. Wei Xun almost fell half of his body, but fortunately he stabilized his balance. Before he had time to look, the snow leopard walking in front noticed that Wei Xun was in danger and hurriedly stepped on the ruins to leap over. Unexpectedly, his jump collapsed the ground under his paws, and he jumped up with a startled "Ow!"

"This is simply three blooms!"

Wei Xun first comforted Snow Leopard, and then said happily. What the fox cub discovered was a secret passage hidden under the earth and rocks on the mountain wall at a higher level of the Xiangzhong ruins. Using the fox cub's sight, Wei Xun saw that there seemed to be densely packed mummies like dry tree trunks in the secret passage. Those mummies had all had their heads cut off, and their gray-brown withered limbs looked extremely terrifying. The walls of the secret passage are painted with large and impactful murals in bright colors.

He went to look at the crack in the ground where the snow leopard had stepped, and saw that the underground cavity was only a small part. The hole tilted backward and went behind the earth and stone city wall. I'm afraid it used to be an underground secret room behind a certain room in the royal city, but it has been exposed in this way. Looking only from top to bottom, there is actually a strange double-faced Buddha statue in this cave that is completely black with only three golden eyes!

The shape of the Buddha statue is completely different from that of Buddhism, giving it an eerie feeling, and there seems to be a dark and huge space behind it, and it is difficult to see what is there.

"you are awesome."

Wei Xun did not hesitate to praise him and fed the snow leopard a few pieces with the yak jerky prepared before departure as a reward. Then he happily took the snow leopard with him to the place where he stepped on it.

Here, Wei Xun expected that the temple where Dabenbo was located on the map should not be far away. The surrounding walls of intertwined earth and stone were more like the old walls of the temple, and there were artificially excavated stone flakes on them, which seemed to be blocking them.

Looking at the places where Snow Leopard and Fox Cub found them, they actually don’t look like temple ruins. Wei Xun had a premonition in his heart. He waited until the stale atmosphere completely dissipated before he approached and looked down expectantly.

Wei Xun saw large tracts of murals with bright colors. The murals were not religious sacrifices, nor were they worshiping mountains and lakes. Instead, there were men and women entangled with no clothes or shoes, and there were even gods, Buddhas, dragons, fish, and strange beasts.

This is actually a mural depicting the gathering of many people for double cultivation!
