According to the general behavior, Bai Ning's team was looking for the entrance to the ruins. Although Captain Dong was in the position of a monitor, he had to find a suitable hiding place if he wanted to hide his body.
Jiang Yingxue's team found a large number of textured stone carvings in the suspicious area, which proved the possibility of ancient ruins.
Under such a general premise, if Jiang Yingxue's team failed to find the entrance to the ruins in their own area, Captain Dong's probability of finding the entrance to the ruins in his hiding area would increase dramatically.
The two actually have a complementary relationship. Bai Ning's guess that Captain Dong has found the entrance to the ruins one step ahead is within the scope of reasonable guesses.
"Let the team have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning we will go to the area where Captain Dong stayed to look for some clues.
People who are good at concealing their whereabouts usually carefully erase all traces of their past, so the search process tomorrow may be extremely difficult.
Be prepared. "
Bai Ning continued to stare at the bonfire in a daze, not wanting to fall asleep at all. This showed that the drug still had a strong impact on him, and his basic desire to sleep did not receive any feedback from his body.
If you can't sleep, then you can't sleep. As long as you can spend tonight safely, this kind of relaxation and comfort is the best way to relieve fatigue.
Jiang Yingxue was lying on the armchair, staring blankly at the starry sky above her head. Her eyes were calm, but her thoughts were surging.
Almost half asleep and half awake, Jiang Yingxue couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams.
Suddenly startled, Jiang Yingxue took a deep breath and jumped up from the recliner.
He hurriedly took a look at the scene around him. The bonfire was still blazing and the night sky was still bright. The bodyguards patrolling around him gathered a wave of sight here. Bai Ning in front of him was still staring blankly at the bonfire in front of him.
Is it another short but infinitely long dream?
The perception of time is still in a state of severe confusion. Even if you just lie still, your brain will start some kind of time and space dream that is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
The feeling of deep poisoning is too uncomfortable. In such an unbearable state, even if you know that Captain Dong may have penetrated deep into the ruins of the Queen Mother of the West, and even if you know that there will be no attack tonight, it will be difficult to get a peaceful rest.
Perhaps, like Bai Ning, staring at an object in a daze and letting one's mind be in a thinking but not too tense state is the only way to overcome the influence of poison.
People will think about many things when they are in a daze, but they will not feel too tired because of this. People are constantly processing various information in the brain while sleeping, which is a problem for the human body. The process of resting.
It was obvious that Bai Ning had found the best way to rest during his constant exploration.
It's just that he didn't know that this way of rest was effective, so he didn't share it.
As if she suddenly found a solution to the current predicament, Jiang Yingxue quickly raised the chair, leaned on it, and began to stare at the bonfire in front of her in a daze.
The scene in front of him changed dramatically as the flames continued to beat. Those long-forgotten past memories overflowed like a big river, eagerly and chaotically appearing in Jiang Yingxue's field of vision.
In the dazzling state of mind, a certain thought seemed to fly to infinite distance in an instant, forming a world of its own.
Things that were confusing became clear again.
Therefore, the forgotten memories and all the details that were deliberately ignored reappeared before Jiang Yingxue's eyes like a revolving lantern.
In this raging bonfire, Jiang Yingxue seemed to be trapped in the torrent of time in the past, letting the rapids wash away and letting his thoughts change.
She when she was a child, she when she was young, she was domineering, she was as cold as ice, those happy eyes, those jealous eyes, those fearful eyes.
He is him, I am me, you are you, Jiang Yingxue feels as if she has been cut into countless pieces.
In times of chaos, there is no clear and calm thinking, no cold and sharp attitude, and all that is left are the negative emotions that have been deliberately ignored, like mountains and seas.
She is weak, she is frail, she is lonely, she is in suffering...
As she burst into tears, she felt a dazzling ray of sunlight suddenly stinging her pupils. When she woke up with horror, Jiang Yingxue only realized that she had been bathed in the scorching brilliance of the next day.
He raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already 9:15 the next morning. This huge span on the timeline made Jiang Yingxue feel as if he had traveled through time and space.
Based on previous experience, a whole night, if converted into a dream, is probably more than enough time for ten lifetimes.
What else did you experience during such a long dream?
After thinking carefully, Wuhen fell into a clear dream again. This abnormal state, or in other words, seemed like he had really fallen asleep.
Feeling something cool on my face, I reached out to wipe it, only to find two traces of tears.
Looking down, he found that his front was completely soaked with tears.
Inexplicable venting in a strange dream, but you can't remember it at all?
Looking at Bai Ning's empty chair, she stood up casually and went directly back to her tent to wash up and change clothes.
What kind of restlessness and weakness will this mysterious poison inspire in human nature?
Jiang Yingxue no longer wanted to delve deeper. Now that her body had fully recovered and her spirit seemed to have been strengthened to a certain extent, it seemed pointless to continue obsessing over the analysis of last night's dream.
Another set of fresh and capable mountain climbing attire appeared, and Bai Ning appeared next to the campfire again from nowhere.
"Have you analyzed the possible locations?"
Jiang Yingxue looked at Bai Ning who was eating breakfast casually, and picked up a piece of pastry to eat. Even though she was curious about Bai Ning's performance last night, she still endured it.
Everyone has their own secrets, and excessive probing will only lead to meaningless lies.
Thinking of Bai Ning waking up before her, Jiang Yingxue felt a burning and tingling sensation in her cheeks. Under the influence of the drug, too many of her instinctive flaws were completely exposed in front of Bai Ning, but this man turned a blind eye. look like.
Perhaps, in the world of people like Bai Ning, he has already seen through all the emotions and desires in the world.
The most thorough seeing, the most ruthless abandonment, the freest self.
Jiang Yingxue believed that with Bai Ning's ability and means, he could successfully fight in the world of mortal desires.
This unique hobby of immersing yourself in the secrets of this wilderness is really strange.
“There are a few places that are rather suspicious.
However, the more suspicious it is, the less likely it is.
It stands to reason that the entrance to a refuge place does not need to be built so secretly, like building the entrance to a secret tomb.
However, judging from the results of our current exploration, the entrance to this refuge seems to be as difficult to find as a tomb entrance.
This phenomenon is caused by the fact that the remaining entrance is too long ago and has been covered up by the floating soil in the vicissitudes of life.
The more important point is that the entrance to the refuge should have been rebuilt by later generations. "
The guess direction given by Bai Ning partially explains the possibility that the escape hatch is difficult to find, but it also exposes a bigger problem.
That's why this refuge is hidden.
You know, according to previous speculations, the other clans occupying this area eventually fought a war, turning all the remaining remains into ruins.
After such a large-scale battle, who has the energy to take care of a shelter that has long been invaded and divided?
It's just a huge underground shelter. After the apocalyptic disaster, its value is no longer very high, and it is far less cost-effective than above-ground buildings.
What's more, if you want to run a huge underground base smoothly, it not only requires a huge amount of energy supply, but the corresponding maintenance costs are also extremely high.
After the Queen Mother of the West clan was driven away, the corresponding benefit clans would at most divide up the property and technological legacy in the refuge. As for the rest, they were not of much value.
Now, Bai Ning said that someone deliberately changed and concealed the entrance to the Queen Mother's Sanctuary, which is very puzzling.
Unless, this shelter contains some very important large-scale equipment.
For example, a possibility previously imagined, the thunderstorm weather in the Narengrad Valley in midsummer, represents a giant energy collection system.
The fight for this energy system may be the core of subsequent conflicts.
"Are you saying that the device that can gather thunder and lightning in the Queen Mother's original refuge is the fundamental reason why it is hidden?
Whoever obtains this energy base will get priority for subsequent development.
In this case, why did the clan that finally won the battle hide it instead of using it directly to quickly revive the clan? "
Jiang Yingxue seemed to have once again dug out a loophole in the logic of Bai Ning's words. If this issue is not resolved, it cannot be justified.
"Remember what we guessed before, that this large river valley area was once destroyed by a thermal weapon with a large yield?
Putting aside the issue of nuclear radiation, the large-scale leakage of various other industrial toxic substances will make this canyon uninhabitable within decades.
What's more, the Queen Mother of the West clan is good at studying various viruses, and some extremely dangerous viruses were leaked here.
This area became a poisonous land after the final war, and the surviving clans needed to move to other areas for a period of transition before they could return here to receive the fixed properties of the Queen Mother of the West's initial refuge.
It's just that these clans did not continue to be victors after they moved away, and eventually perished in the long river of history.
Also disappearing with them was the renovated entrance and exit passage of the Queen Mother of the West's original shelter. "
Like a result of careful consideration, or a quick response on the spot, with Bai Ning's gradual completion, the subsequent events that occurred in this canyon seemed to gradually become clearer.
The final result of constant fighting can only be death. Hatred can never bring peace, but only ultimate destruction.
The grievances and resentments surrounding this river valley can only end in annihilation as its unspeakably bleak ending.
In the place of silence, the only thing left is the gentle breeze blowing on my face, and the ancient path of desolate grass.
Time cannot remember destruction, time only witnesses destruction.
