She looks like she's dressed as a man and a woman, with her black hair combed into three-quarter lengths, a straight plaid suit and a black coat, not to mention how cool she is.
"this?"
"Oh, this is our young village owner, Luo Gaoxuan."
The young owner of the winery had quite a temper. When he glanced at them, he didn't say a word, and his smart and capable aura was undoubtedly revealed. After all, she had nothing to do with exploring the winery. After Yue Guanchao signed the contract, he led everyone out of the winery.
"It seems that I don't think there is anything weird about this winery. Even the winemaking process is normal. Could it be that Liquan Villa is also kept in the dark?"
After Song Siyuan came out, her eyes became confused.
Yue Guanchao looked at the sky: "The sun has just started to rise now. Why don't we climb into the wild mountains and go to the source of the Yinquan Spring. If it is not the fault of Liquan Villa, there must be something wrong with the source. I asked Boss Qiu when I was drinking. The plank road that enters Yinping Mountain is near the spring."
"As long as it's daytime, there shouldn't be any problems."
After saying that, a few people went down the mountain from Liquan Villa, and took a small path on the way, following the direction of the waterfall. Fortunately, in March, the vegetation was already as dense as an umbrella cover, so they walked into the dense forest without anyone noticing.
When you reach the spring, you can see the wild road extending from the flat land to the mountain wall and into the narrow grotto near the waterfall.
After entering the grotto, everyone looked around in rows. The mountain walls on both sides could only accommodate one person, and the space became wider as they walked. After walking for hundreds of meters, the mountain wall grotto finally disappeared, and it looked like a high cliff. Don't take a step forward.
Looking up, you can see a narrow stone wall with only the skylight. Looking down, you can see the dense wild forest and underground valley that are hundreds of meters deep. The water rushes in the river, like broken jade hitting gravel, bursting out with fierce roars, and flowing into various places. A dark stone crevice.
The plank road in front of you is like a bridge hanging over the river. Countless plank roads extend into the distance. You can only hear the chirping of strange birds and cranes, the roar of wild animals, and the distance is covered by shrubs. The road ahead is chaotic and unclear. Just by looking at it, you feel that you are going on the right path. not easy.
"Why is there such a plank road here? Can people really walk on this plank road?"
Song Siyuan stood at the edge of the grotto and stared at the plank roads. These plank roads were mostly made of holes drilled into the stone walls, and were laid out with cross-cutting wood. The railings were only made of wood tied with hemp ropes. They were twists and turns and uneven up and down, making it more difficult to walk than a catwalk.
"Song Qianjin, have you heard of Li Bai's poems? The road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult to climb to the blue sky. The sword pavilions are towering and Cui Wei, the ladders and stone stacks are connected with each other. The roads from Sichuan to Shu are mostly steep and difficult to climb. If it is an official road, it can be spacious. One thing is that these plank roads are private roads opened by the private sector. They are secretive and difficult to find, so it is best if you can walk through them."
"Let's go. According to Boss Qiu, Yinquan spring comes from a rocky river beach. There is a stone tablet with the words Yinguan Spring written on it. It's easy to find."
After speaking, Yue Guanchao and Xu Xiake took the lead and led them onto the plank road. The plank road was narrow and steep and could only accommodate two people walking side by side.
I don’t know which dynasty built these planks here. Some of the planks are slightly decayed, but some are still brand new. It can be seen that someone has repaired and renovated here. If you can see new wood, it means that it is not a plank road that has been in disrepair. They Although the walk was hard, there was no danger.
None of them knew the length of the plank road. They could only rely on time to judge how far they had traveled. From the time the sun rose to when it reached midday, about three or four hours had passed. When the plank road passed through the cave again, they exited the cave. We have reached the end of the private road.
In front of me, there is a chaotic river beach full of gravel and gravel. It is surrounded by rugged mountains. It is rare to see a river beach washed out by the river. Looking at the geographical structure of the river beach, it is very similar to Jiangyou Ancient Town. The river beach is surrounded by tall mountains. However, here There are obviously no buildings, just a smooth and round rocky beach washed by the river. Going further, you will find the end of Liquan - Yinguan Lake!
Half of this lake is surrounded by wild mountains, and the other half stretches directly into the cave. It is dark and chaotic and cannot be found. The lake water reflects the sky, like broken jade glass. The breeze blows across the water, causing sparkling tremors. Countless rivers extend from the lake, and the terrain is different. With the accumulation of water, it is poured into various river valleys.
"According to the distance we walked, we are probably two miles away from Chengguan Tower. It can be said that this place definitely belongs to the Yinping Ancient Road, but we don't know the specific location."
After saying that, Yue Guanchao climbed up the tall tree by the lake, stood on the branch and looked into the distance, and said to everyone: "I have already seen the Yinping Ancient Road, which is probably a few miles away from where we are."
"Come and see, what is this?"
Before he finished speaking, Song Siyuan's words attracted them all. Yue Guanchao and the others came to the lake and followed her directions. They saw that the lake was crystal clear, but something seemed to be floating in the water.
After turning on the flashlight, you can see countless red flowers that look like algae in the water. Their roots are moving with the water, and thousands of thin petals are piled up, forming a bright and soft shape similar to dandelions. The flowers sway and spit out translucent things into the water.
"Nightmare Gu Flower!"
Lan Ruling compared the Nuo Gu skills and quickly recognized this thing.
"Nightmare Gu Flowers, yes, these tiny things are probably Nightmare Gu. This is really the home of Nightmare Gu."
"How did this thing come about?"
Song Siyuan looked at the nightmare flower, and the more she looked at it, the more it looked like the magic ginseng flower that was integrated with the high priest in the Sushen altar. Furthermore, if the flower can produce poisonous insects, it must not be an ordinary flower, so it should be clearer.
"If the Nightmare Gu Flower emerges from a human corpse, its body is a Demonic Ginseng Flower. However, this Demonic Ginseng Flower has long been fed by the Gu people and has changed its temper. It can use the human body to absorb nutrients and develop flower bones. Then the seeds that are half insect and half flower are spit out from the flower bones, which is probably the origin of the nightmare Gu."
"Nightmare Gu can cause hallucinations. A large part of the reason is that the magic ginseng flower is poisonous. Taking the magic ginseng flower juice raw can cause insanity. If combined with the poison, it will even make people feel like they are in an illusion."
After Lan Ruling finished speaking, they already knew how serious the nightmare flower was. It was estimated that the Shu gods that people saw in their dreams after drinking nightmare poison tea were hallucinations caused by the devil flower.
"Poison, it's so vicious. These people actually plant these things in the lake."
Just as they were about to get up, thunder suddenly sounded in their ears. When they saw the light of the fire, lightning and thunder were already coming down. The sky was high and the sky was dark, and the sky was suddenly shrouded in black clouds, and their eyes became dim.
"The environment of the Yinping Ancient Road is weird. Thunder and rain are normal on sunny days. However, if the sunshine is gone, will those things come out?"
What Song Siyuan was referring to must be a living corpse that liked the shade. Before she finished speaking, she could already see the rustling of the jungle. It was obvious that she could feel some cold eyes staring at them, which made her whole body feel cold.
Some people died, but not completely...
