The grassland with long yellow grass is like a undulating yellow-green sea.
The grass is almost the same height, but the sand dunes under the grass are uneven and the terrain is uneven.
In most areas of the grassland, there is not much difference in the ups and downs. , it is difficult to distinguish from a distance or a high place.
There are also rocky mountains or sandy soil mountains on the grassland.
Because the sky and the earth are so vast, from a distance it just feels like the sky and the earth are connected, with continuous ups and downs.
Only when you get closer can you really feel the huge difference in the slope. .
The traces of the cattle running away happened to disappear on an uphill slope.
We hurriedly took the horses and searched carefully.
We saw that the hoofprints on the turf were messy and there were gnawing marks on the surrounding grass, indicating that the cattle had escaped here.
After that, he had recovered from the panic and stayed here to eat grass.
But the strange thing is that a large herd of cattle disappeared out of thin air here.
Even if the cattle were attacked by wolves here, they would leave traces such as hoof prints.
After all, we chased us with our front and rear feet.
It was so short.
What force could make the cattle disappear in such a short period of time?
I asked Ding Sitian on the horse: "Is there a tornado on your grassland that has swept away all the cattle?"
Ding Sitian said: "I heard that there are occasional tornadoes in Outer Mongolia in Mobei.
It is very rare in our grassland, and a tornado that can roll up hundreds of cattle must be big.
If there is a tornado, the sky will be clear today.
We are far away."
You should be able to see the ground, and besides, there are no traces of wind damage on the grass nearby."
After that, she turned to ask Lao Yangpi.
After all, Lao Yangpi has lived on the grassland for decades and has far more experience than us educated youths.
Lao Yangpi didn't say anything.
He got off the horse and looked at the cow hoof prints on the ground for a long time.
Finally, he sat slumped on the ground with tears streaming down his face.
It seemed that the more than two hundred cattle on the grassland must have " After swallowing the "demon dragon", Lao Yangpi cried and beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Why does Changshengtian punish the poor shepherd like this?"
His brother came to this area decades ago.
Then he disappeared, and now the cattle have disappeared here.
These cattle are the collective property of the brigade.
If I hadn't been drunk yesterday and didn't reinforce the cattle fence, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened.
This responsibility is really It was too big, and once the superiors inquired about it, they couldn't explain it at all.
Who would believe it when they said that all the cattle were swallowed up by the dragon, and not even a hair was left?
Ding Sitian was also so anxious that she shed tears.
She looked strong on the outside, but she was actually sensitive on the inside.
She was as fragile as an ordinary girl.
She couldn't bear such a big blow.
When Fatty and I saw this, we were very worried for them.
I got off my horse and persuaded the old man.
Yangpi said: "I see things now, no We won't be able to find the whereabouts of these cattle.
There's no point in worrying now.
Let's search around quickly.
Even if we turn the grassland upside down, we still have to find them.
"Besides, I don't believe in any demonic dragon that devours humans and animals.
Legend has it that even if you take ten thousand steps back, There is really a beast that looks like a dragon hidden deep in the grassland.

It can't swallow so many cattle in one go.
Does it have such a big appetite?
To take a step back, if it swallows it, it has to spit out the bones.
If you find it, you can give me an explanation.
There are so many hats these days.
If you can't find the whereabouts of the cow, you can just slap a hat on the old man and Ding Sitian, but you can't bear the sin of walking around.
There are some things that you can't avoid even if you are afraid.
At the critical moment, you can only grit your teeth and hold on.
If you have time to cry, you might as well continue looking for the cow.
The fat man also advised: "Sitian, don't cry.
In my impression, you are not the kind of big girl who only cries and complains and is of no use.
I think back then we were all shaking up the world.
The Red Guards who are turbulent and angry, sweeping away all demons and demons, you I have also said that in the future I want to be a soldier of the People's Liberation Army Art Troupe full of outstanding wisdom and foresight, with profound theoretical thinking and unyielding fighting spirit.
You must not be like Hu Bayi who shouts that low-level taste is not guilty all day long.
Don't forget Yes, death does not belong to the working class.”
Ding Sitian was made to laugh by the fat man's words.
She wiped her tears and nodded: "Yes, death does not belong to the working class."
She and Lao Yangpi, old and young, finally understood the situation with our persuasion.
The only person in this world who can save your own destiny is yourself.
There is no point in blaming others.
Now there is no other way.
If you lose the cow, you can only rely on yourself to find it.
You can't cry back the cow even if you cry to the sky and howl. .
In fact, I still have an idea that I haven’t made clear to everyone.
Yesterday, Lao Yangpi talked about how his brother was forced to lead the way to the "Baiyan Cave" decades ago.
He once mentioned the group of bandits from the mountains, carrying After picking up a large box, I felt that this incident was extremely strange.
The time when this incident happened was very consistent with the time mentioned by the fourth aunt. , maybe it was the bandits from the "Mu'er Hui" who brought things dug out of the mountains to the grassland.
I can't guess the reason why they chose the grassland, but there was probably something valuable in that Huang Tai Sin box.
Gold, if the herd really can't be found, Ding Sitian and Lao Yangpi may be able to get away with it.
Because I have heard too many legends about gold mines in Xing'an Mountains, the idea of imagining the "Baiyan Cave" as a gold treasure house for barbarians has already been preconceived in my mind and formed a subjective impression, so all subsequent imaginations Guesses are all based on this premise.
I think that those who have disappeared are probably those who are guarding the treasure.
The hidden bandits were killed and silenced.
In the end, there was an internal struggle in the "Ni'erhui".
In order to fight for the gold and the four old people in the ancient tomb, we fought to the death.
This was probably the case.
I was still very ignorant at that time. , I don’t think deeply about everything, I am very satisfied with my inference, and I feel that this is most likely the case.
There is a mountain col on the side of this grassy slope, and along the road is the "Hundred Eyes Cave", a ghostly place with undulating hills.
We did not give up for the time being, so we mounted our horses again and wandered around the area to continue searching for clues.
It was already past noon, but not long after we got on the horses, the horses suddenly seemed extremely restless, neighing "咴儿, 咴儿", and there seemed to be something abnormal in the air around them that made them anxious and panicked.
I Worried about getting off the horse and pouting I threw it off and quickly grabbed the reins with one hand and the saddle hoop with the other hand.
However, the horses didn't have any twitches and were just circling in place.
I saw that the other three horses were also in the same situation.
They were crowded around each other.
Lao Yangpi shouted: "Old man, what's wrong with these horses?"
Lao Yangpi tightened the reins and forcibly held the panicked horses.

He told us that the horses on the grassland are spiritual and are much more sensitive than human intuition.
They must feel that there are terrible things nearby, and these things are People can't feel it.
Lao Yangpi's mount is a retired military horse, one head taller than an ordinary Mongolian horse.
Although this horse has long teeth, its psychological quality is much calmer than that of ordinary horses.
With it, the other three horses It won't be a mess for a while.
The horses' mood calmed down slightly.
We took the opportunity to look around to see what was going on in the surrounding grasslands.
Maybe it was related to the disappearance of more than a hundred cattle.
For a moment, everyone's nerves seemed to be full of tension.
The spring of the string was tightened.
In order to guard against prairie wolves, Lao Yangpi also brought an old-fashioned shotgun.
Lao Yangpi had the Kangxi sword for self-defense, so he asked the fat man: "That fat boy, can you fire a gun?"
