Chapter 37: Xanadu

The plane flew for two hours, and Zi Yang was stunned and fell asleep as soon as he got on the plane. Lao Wang and Xiao Hei chewed snacks all the way.

After getting off the plane, I felt a rush of dampness and heat. It turned out that I had arrived at the capital of Y Province in the south. Then everyone got on a seven-seat Buick business car. It was bumpy for about ten hours and arrived at a county town. Judging from the appearance, the county town was relatively backward. Zi Yang thought he had arrived at the destination, but he changed into a van and continued to bump.

Zi Yang and Lao Wang were so upset that they complained. They thought it was a beautiful journey, but they didn't expect it to be an extraordinary road.

Lao Wang complained that his intestines were about to come out.

The road was getting harder and harder to walk. The van was almost struggling to climb, but finally stopped under a continuous mountain range (the food was stopped).

Here they met Director Jin who was sent by the army to greet him. He was about forty years old, with a stubble face, a quartz face, dark and solemn expression, wearing a casual military uniform, without a military rank on his shoulders, and did not greet him when he met, and said straight to the point, "There is no road ahead, and the car cannot enter, let's walk."

He looked up at the sky and said, "It's time to hurry up, it will take several hours to enter the mountain." There was a majesty in his words that could not be questioned.

The group was walking forward under the guidance of Jin. On both sides of the road were lush towering trees - it was said that it was a road, but it was actually a small path about a footprint that was stepped on. Weeds were crisscrossing on both sides of the road. If we didn't identify it carefully, we wouldn't be able to find this road at all, which was enough to show that this was a rare place.

Everyone was speechless along the way. Although the professor was old and still steadily, the others gritted their teeth and kept up. Perhaps it was the majestic momentum of Director Jin, and even Lao Wang, who had always complained, didn't say much.

After walking for two or three hours, probably taking care of the professor's body, Director Jin stopped and said, "Stay for fifteen minutes and everyone will replenish their moisture and nutrition."

The professor said happily, "Director Jin doesn't have to worry about me. Speaking of climbing, my body is no worse than you young men."

Director Jin didn't seem to listen to this kind comfort. He sat down under a big tree, put his hands on his knees, his upper body was straight and upright, with a typical military posture, and his eyes were vigilantly patrolling around.

Lao Wang leaned against Zi Yang and said quietly, "What's the reason for being a soldier? He looked like a big enemy, which made me nervous and wanted to have diarrhea. Did you notice his eyes? Just like looking at the enemy, I was so scared that my anus tightened several times."

Zi Yang frowned because of his disgust, "Go and go, find someone to find a place that cannot be seen and finish it quickly, don't walk halfway to get diarrhea."

Old Wang curled his lips and said, "You just need to pull it, but the uncle doesn't want to pull it anymore!"

The professor leaned against a tree trunk, took a sip of mineral water in his mouth, and said to himself: "Birds fly across the mountains and thousands of paths are gone. I am used to the steel and concrete of big cities, but I am a little uncomfortable with this sudden green mountain and green tree. I have been to many places in China. Most of the third- and fourth-tier cities have built high-rise buildings, but this place can maintain such an original appearance, which is quite valuable. It is really like a paradise."

Director Jin said in a muffled voice: "This place has no resources, no specialties, it is full of mountains and ridges, and the transportation is inconvenient. The developers have no profits, so they will naturally not focus on such a broken place."

Lao Wang laughed, but he didn't expect that the soldier was still an angry young man.

After resting for a while, everyone was moving forward again. Director Jin kept frowning and looking at the sky, as if he had complained about the speed of the march. However, looking at the old, small, and fat people, they all had sweated and seemed to have tried their best. If the superior had not specifically reminded him that this was a special expert, Director Jin would have already shown the style of the army to teach them.

But being an expert, except for Professor Zhang who is kind and has a scholarly demeanor, the others do not look like serious people no matter how they look. These people can solve the problem?

When he thought of the scene that made him feel scared, Director Jin shuddered and his pace became bigger - he had to rush over before dark.

Finally, after crossing a valley, a narrow mountain pass appeared in front of it, with cliffs on both sides of it being about ten meters long, as sharp as a knife and axe. It seemed like a giant chopped an axe on the top of the mountain and smashed a deep ditch directly.

After walking dozens of meters in the path, I suddenly realized that there was a lush basin in front of me surrounded by mountains and lush basins. There were some houses dotted in the middle of green vegetation. On the sunny side of the pass, there were a few miles of scattered scattered families.

Professor Zhang looked around and took a breath, "What a paradise!"

Old Wang showed off with interest: "It is not necessarily that this place is surrounded by mountains and is just an exit less than two meters wide, and the terrain is so dangerous. From the perspective of military tactics, this is called a 'desperate situation'. If you get a letter from outside, you will become a 'dead place'."

Seeing Professor Zhang is close and kind, Lao Wang is no longer in his words.

Professor Zhang said with a smile, "I have such a good eye, I even know the art of war. It seems that I have read a lot of books!"

Zi Yang deliberately carried it with Lao Wang, "If you put a small army on the valley, you can defend the entire valley. In the era of cold weapons, this is a natural danger that only one man can pass by ten thousand men."

"The 'destiny' place you mentioned is indeed a Death Gate from the perspective of direction, but there is a song by the ancients: If the good gate is defeated, the bad gate cannot be defeated. I don't know whether this valley was formed naturally or was done by human power, but it is the key to restrain the Death Gate."

Professor Zhang looked at Zi Yang in surprise and said, "I didn't expect that you could understand Qimen Dunjia at a young age and see the tricks of the layout of this valley."

Old Zi Yang's face turned red. He had indeed read a few books on this before, but he only knew the basic common sense of opening, resting, rebirth, rebirth, death, shock, and injury to the three evil gates. He did not know the Qimen Dunjia, which was mutually reborn and restrained. He just wanted to dissuade Lao Wang and talk nonsense.

Suddenly, Lao Wang seemed to have discovered something, and he was plucking up in the grass by the roadside with his ass. Zi Yang hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"

Lao Wang said, "This terrain is very consistent with the place where heroes live in seclusion described by Mr. Jin Yong. I can see if I can pick up the Nine Yang True Sutras or something."

Zi Yang sarcastically said, "There is no chance for the Nine Yang scriptures, but it is more likely to pick up the instructions for the Nine Yang soy milk machine."

The two of them were talking nonsense there, and the coach Jin kept talking nonsense. He heard the two of them talking less and less. He frowned and said, "Go down the mountain quickly, it's getting late."

It was dusk at this time, and several families in the valley had already raised smoke from cooking smoke.

The road down the mountain was much easier. After a while, everyone came to the entrance of the village. Lao Wang, who was leading the way, was looking around. Suddenly, a fully armed soldier in camouflage stood up from the grass, holding a Type 95 squad machine gun in his hand, with the muzzle facing everyone.
