A night of silence.
Time passed and it was early morning the next day.
After eating something briefly, Chen Ziyan and others followed yesterday's traces and arrived at the mouth of Yeren Valley again.
Holding the wooden stick found on the road, he stepped into it step by step.
This time Chen Ziyan was responsible for clearing the way. Although his 'listening to identify position' was not very wide, it was not difficult to hear the movement under his feet.
Just two taps on the thick leaf litter will tell you what's going on below, which greatly increases the team's speed.
After walking like this for about two hours, the fallen leaves under their feet became thinner and thinner, and the ground was exposed in many places.
"Fortunately it's not the rainy season, otherwise we might not be able to get in." Yingzi said happily after looking at the layer of fallen leaves behind her.
Anyway, she thought she had no choice but to wait until the water froze in winter.
"Yes, the terrain here is too low. If there is a heavy rain, we will probably all have to swim now." Wang Kaixuan also thinks so.
In fact, since approaching this area, everyone has already seen that it is really the right time to enter the mountain at this time.
Although there is no need to worry about the leaf litter in winter, the frozen soil will be a bigger problem.
It would be okay if there were a large number of people, but with just a few of them, it would be really difficult to deal with it.
Even if you barely dig it out, you will have to spend far more time and energy than you can at this time.
Chen Ziyan did not answer the question, but looked at Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, how are you? Can you determine the general range of the tomb now?"
Although it is necessary to wait until the moon is at its zenith before we can deduce the specific location based on the moonlight.
But it's not even noon now, so we can't just wait until midnight.
So Chen Ziyan wanted Hu Bayi to try to see if he could find a range first, so that they could have time to set up the camp.
"I'll give it a try." Hu Bayi didn't feel confident at all.
After all, you can rely on the moonlight at night to follow the pictures, but now you can only rely on your own Feng Shui attainments.
But although he memorized the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Technique" passed down from his family, he didn't have much practical experience.
To be honest, this was the first time he had done something like this, so he naturally lacked some confidence.
"Just try your best." Chen Ziyan didn't force it.
He could more or less understand Hu Bayi's mentality. He himself was in the same situation now.
Xiling inheritance is all knowledge, and the specific effect of its application requires practice to know.
Hearing this, Hu Bayi nodded lightly and said nothing more. Instead, he took out his compass and began to deduce the most likely area based on the gossip.
A few minutes later, Hu Bayi's brows relaxed slightly and he looked up to the right.
"If I'm not mistaken, that area is the deepest part of the Savage Valley."
"That piece?"
Wang Kaixuan followed his gaze and asked with some confusion:
"But we're probably not even halfway there, so why are we at the deepest point?"
According to his understanding, the so-called deepest point must be the end of this valley.
"I told you to study more, are the deepest and the farthest the same thing?" Hu Bayi rolled his eyes at this guy, and then explained: "The so-called deepest refers to the lowest point of the entire valley, not The farthest place from the mouth of the valley.”
"Hi!" Wang Kaixuan shook his head nonchalantly and said, "If you had said this earlier, it would have been over. You still had to come up with some terms."
Hu Bayi:......
After giving this guy a speechless look, Hu Bayi simply ignored him and turned to look at Chen Ziyan.
"Mr. Chen, we can just set up camp a hundred meters ahead on the right. We won't know the exact location until night."
"Okay, then let's take a rest in front and recuperate before doing anything in the evening."
Chen Ziyan has never been an arbitrary person. Since professionals have already made suggestions, what else is there to say? Just follow them.
Immediately, the few of them stopped talking and accelerated their pace to the location mentioned by Hu Bayi.
I didn't notice it when I was far away, but now I can see it clearly when I get closer. It turns out that this is a low slope, and what Hu Bayi was talking about is the bottom of the slope. The terrain is indeed much lower than where they were just now.
There are no dead branches and leaves under this short slope, but rather cleaner land.
The four of them chose a relatively flat area and began to place their camp there.
This time is different from the past. We don’t know how long we will stay here, so the camp layout is more comprehensive. Yingzi even directed Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan to build a simple earthen stove directly in the center of the camp.
While the three of them were busy, Chen Ziyan began to wander around.
He wanted to see if there were any caves left by those prairie ground otters nearby.
If Chen Ziyan remembers correctly, in the original plot it seemed that the horses brought by Hu Bayi and his companions were attacked by unknown creatures.
And in this savage ditch, it is self-evident what the so-called unknown creatures are.
Although the specific habits of this grassland otter are not clear, it is correct that the entire valley is the other party's territory.
After wandering around for a while, Chen Ziyan saw a cave of the same style as Taniguchi next to a nearby tree.
After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan took out a coil of fishing line and several bells from his backpack, and placed a simple warning device at the exit of the cave.
It is very difficult to block it. Besides, prairie ground otters can dig holes. Even if they can really block the hole, they can still dig it out from other places.
Blocking can't be stopped.
After thinking for a while, Chen Ziyan came up with such a way.
These prairie otters generally do not take the initiative to attack humans, and as long as they are not trapped in a narrow space, it is not difficult to escape, so he thought of such a move.
In fact, this is true for many terrifying creatures. If there is no absolute numerical advantage, then as long as their whereabouts are clear, they will not be so scary.
After ensuring that there was no problem with the warning device here, Chen Ziyan continued to patrol around the camp location as the center.
Fortunately, there is only this cave nearby, and no other underground exits have been found.
"Mr. Chen, I see you have been tinkering there for a long time. Did you find anything?"
As soon as Chen Ziyan returned to the camp, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but ask.
Because the cave was not far from here, they could all see Chen Ziyan's movements, but they were blocked by shrubs and couldn't see clearly what he did.
"A hole was discovered there, and a small mechanism was set up to give an early warning."
Chen Ziyan didn't hide anything and told the truth directly.
In fact, even if Wang Kaixuan didn't ask, he would take the initiative to tell others and ask them to try to avoid that direction when moving.
