Chapter 672 The Sudden Fork in the Road Under the dark night, above the empty wasteland, such an avenue suddenly appeared.I saw that at the end of the avenue, there was actually a mountain of dirt.We were here in the afternoon, and I remember vividly that in that location, it should have been bare, and there shouldn't have been this dirt mountain.What disturbed me even more was that the shape, height, and size of the mountain were almost identical to the ruins of the Guge Kingdom that we had visited in the afternoon.Shen Dali asked me in astonishment: "Fifth brother, could this be a haunting?"
I thought of the word "ghost road" that Chen Laosan had mentioned before his death, and I couldn't help but shudder.Mr.
Cui also got out of the car at this time.He looked at the avenue in the distance, walked up to me, and asked me with a solemn expression: "Wu Yishu, what is the situation?"
I pondered for a while, and then said to Mr.
Cui: "Don't think about it so much, I think it's very likely that it is the place we are looking for."
Let's continue along the avenue and see how it goes. ”Mr.
Cui seemed to hesitate, but he thought about it for a moment, and finally nodded and said "yes".We continued to drive on, and soon we were up the dirt road.Compared to the road we walked during the day, the dirt road was much smoother, as if it had been artificially made.Leng Yue was lying on the edge of the car window, looking at the narrow road outside the car window with a solemn expression, frowning slightly.Xiao Bai squatted on his shoulder, stretched his head diagonally down, and looked out suspiciously, as if he was very curious about this.I don't know if it's a coincidence, but on the night we got here, the Mao Moon appeared and found this fork in the road that shouldn't have been.I don't know what awaits us at the end of the road, but I can guess that the place where Chen Laosan and them went is likely to have appeared in front of our eyes.The wind and the endless darkness between heaven and earth seemed to hide countless pairs of eyes that I could not see, and I could somehow feel that on every narrow road that branched out, there were countless lines of sight that pierced through the darkness and landed on our two cars, and it must have been full of hostility.It made me feel uneasy, my heart racing, and I suddenly felt so relieved that I wanted to stop the car now and turn around and get out of here.However, I didn't, and I don't know how long I'll have to wait for the next time if I missed such an opportunity.Since I have made all kinds of mental preparations before coming, what I need to do is to suppress the fear in my heart, and to achieve the goal of traveling thousands of miles to come here this time.Whether the eighth dragon egg is on that mountain of earth that suddenly appeared can only be found out by looking deep into it.I don't know how long I walked, but I found that the surroundings were getting darker and darker, and I couldn't even see anything, all I could see was the darkness that I couldn't see my fingers.Suddenly, the car in front of me actually stopped again, and by the light of the headlights, I saw the GI jump out of the car again, as if there was something new to discover.My heart immediately hung in the air, and I hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car, and went up to inquire about the situation.The GI didn't say what they had found, but took me straight to the car.Later, I was surprised to see that in the middle of the dirt road, there was a huge stone monument three meters high.The stone tablet is engraved with words, which are crooked, not like Tibetan, nor like Chinese.Leng Yue also got out of the car at some point, came to the side of us, stared at the words on the stele for a moment, and said the first thing he said since this trip: "It's a boundary monument." ”"Boundary Monument," all of us exclaimed.Although we are in the Ali region near the border at this time, it is absolutely impossible to reach the national border, how can a boundary monument suddenly appear.Moreover, even if it is a boundary monument on the national border, it cannot be so large, and it should not be engraved with words that we do not know.When he came to us, he heard Leng Yue's words, so he also looked up to look at the huge stone monument, and then nodded and said: "I have seen this word, it is indeed a boundary monument, a boundary monument that separates the two worlds of yin and yang." ”I don't know if he is telling the truth, or if he is deliberately trying to scare us, but it is quite surprising and unsettling.If it is really what he said, then if we bypass this boundary monument, we will not enter the underworld, how can it be "no matter, go around." ”The GI said, beckoning everyone back to the car.However, what happened next was still beyond our expectations.Although the sides of the dirt road seem to be empty, every time the car tries to bypass the stone monument from the outside of the dirt road, it suddenly turns off, and after being pushed back onto the dirt road, it will return to its original state, as if there is a force that refuses to allow us to go around.At this moment, everyone was a little troubled and didn't know what to do.So, we all got out of the car and gathered between the two cars to discuss what to do next.After a short discussion, we all agreed to park our car here for the time being, and we carried our gear on our backs, skirted the stone monument, and continued on foot.After agreeing, we began to take the equipment on the car in the same way, distribute it among everyone, then turn off the car and lock it, turn on the flashlight, and go around the huge stone monument one by one.Perhaps because there were no sides of the tunnel, or perhaps for some other reason, we were able to bypass the stele and reach the second half of the dirt road.In the second half of the road, there are no forks, but the surroundings are darker.The stars and moon in the sky were now gone, and even if we used our flashlights to look outside on both sides, we could only see the empty wasteland, and the earth and sand that had been swept up by the wind.The dirt mountain in the distance has been completely hidden in darkness, and we can no longer see the outline of the dirt mountain because the light does not shine.But we all know very well that the dirt mountain is at the end of this road.None of us were in the mood to speak anymore, and I could clearly feel that the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, and I could hear the wind whistling and the sound of our group walking.On the way, I noticed that Leng Yue had taken out his pair of iron chopsticks at some point, and his expression was also very grim, as if he had sensed the threat and made preparations for an emergency.We kept walking, listening to the movement around me, afraid that something would come out of nowhere and attack us.Park Jinquan walked in the front with the Remington, the soldiers and Shen Dali followed, each holding a short dash, Mr.
Choi and I were protected in the middle, and Leng Yue and the grave keeper were at the rear.Suddenly, the person in front stopped, and then I heard Shen Dali shouting loudly: "Fifth brother, come and see" I was shocked, and I hurriedly took a few steps forward, followed Shen Dali's point, and looked at the position illuminated by Park Jinquan with a flashlight.On the edge of the dirt road directly in front of us, there was a man lying on his stomach, motionless.aa2705221:
