Six days later, the survey team completed all the survey tasks, but unlike Zhang Fu's initial plan, everyone in this team was extremely tired.

He was seriously overdrawn in physical strength, lacked rest, and had extremely poor mental state. Two team members had even thought of quitting.

And the reason is simple: there are too many accidents.

Starting from the team members taking off their gloves inexplicably, for six days, it seemed that everyone was making mistakes, and even the captain Qing Hao was not spared. There were only three people in the team who did not make mistakes from beginning to end, namely Zhang Fu and two other security personnel, Li Fang and Liu Chu.

No one knew the reason, and there was no trace of human destruction in this series of events, so they could only think that all this was because of the collective hysteria caused by excessive psychological pressure when participating in a major project for the first time.

Everyone needs to adapt and rest, otherwise the more difficult tasks in the next stage may not be carried out at all.

After arriving at Taohuagou, the survey team members checked in the B&B that had been arranged long ago. Everyone couldn't wait to go back to their room to make up for their sleep. Only Zhang Fu found a room with the principle crowd alone and began to review the survey operation in the previous stage.

His notebook has been closely recorded all the unexpected events and the time of occurrence. What he wants to do now is to connect these clues and find the logic that may exist.

Zhang Fu opened the notebook, started from the first page, and slowly sorted it out from beginning to end.

The first accident happened on December 6th, that is, the night when they arrived at the camp site in Ziyanna, six people in the team took off their gloves. If they had not discovered it in time, there would be a risk of frostbite.

The second accident was late at night on December 6. A team member went out to release water and walked out of the safety of the camp like a sleepwalking. Li Fang, who was vigilant, found out that he was stalked.

The third time was one day later on December 7th. Someone took off his goggles while on the way. When Zhang Fu discovered it, the latter had symptoms of mild snow blindness.

The fourth time was December 8th. An accident occurred during the fire. The tent was too close to the fire and almost lit.

The fifth time was on December 9. During the process of returning from Zhiba Lomba, the survey team members walked straight into the glacier crack area that had been marked long ago. They were discovered and stopped by Zhang Fu, who was with the team. However, he accidentally fell into the crack. Fortunately, the crack was not wide and no one was injured.

Then, on the safest way back from Chidan to Xuewaka Village, the safest itinerary, he accidentally left the team and deviated from the direction. The equipment was lost. In the second half, Zhang Fu forced everyone to enter the forcibly marched. It took 3 hours to complete the originally scheduled 8 hours and arrived at the Palon Zangbo River. The accident finally stopped.

At that time, the morale of the survey team had fallen to the bottom and was extremely exhausted. But what surprised Zhang Fu the most was that in this state of strength, the entire survey team never made any mistakes again.

That mountainous area seemed to have been cursed by some kind of curse, and as long as people enter it, they will make mistakes involuntarily.

Are there really ghosts and gods? Is it really that some mysterious force tried to stop them through such means after discovering their purpose?

But the question is, why do you, why are Li Fang and Liu Chu not affected?

Zhang Fu shook his head, drove away the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and stood up and walked towards Qinghao's room.

After meeting, Zhang Fu found that Qinghao, like him, was also sorting out the accidents that happened during this journey. The latter was not surprised by his arrival, but asked directly:

"Is there any clue? Is it artificial or accident?"

Qing Hao's expression was a bit undetectable. As he said before, although he was a materialist, he was inevitably a bit of taboos that could not be said to others during his long-term outdoor work. Now he is worried about whether he had committed some taboos, which led to a series of chain reactions.

"It must be human. If something goes wrong, there will be demons. I don't believe in anything mysterious. Everything that seems unexplainable can be disassembled from the root."

Hearing Zhang Fu's firm answer, Qing Hao frowned slightly and then said:

"My idea is the same. There must be something wrong with this team, but we can't catch the key to the problem now--I have reviewed it just now. These accidents were not caused by one person, nor have any obvious correlation."

"You also know that I had an accident and led the wrong way. Judging from my personal feelings, I think it was really an negligence--I misread the reading of GPS and did not conduct a secondary verification on the spot."

"It wasn't until I felt something was wrong that I realized that our direction had deviated from the booking route."

“From this perspective, I feel that the root of the problem is myself, not external influence.”

"But I'm very surprised. I haven't made such a mistake for at least ten years. Now, as soon as I entered the mountain, I'm still in the early stages of my operation, I actually started to make such low-level mistakes. This is not worth it..."

"Of course not."

Zhang Fu handed Qing Hao a cigarette, lit it and said:

"It's not just you, the time to make a fire was even more outrageous. Who would put the fire source on the tent and put it so close? Even Xiaobai wouldn't make such a mistake!"

"I always feel that someone is guiding this series of accidents, but I can't find out who it is, nor can I understand what method he is using..."

"Do you want to notify the superior and request an extension of the project?"

Qinghao asked.

Zhang Fu shook his head and replied:

"The extension is useless. What is really useful is to replace people. It is better to replace all of us - especially me, I have no accidents from beginning to end, and I am the most suspected."

"The clues in our hands are not enough now. I think it is unnecessary to ask for help for the time being. My suggestion is that tomorrow, we will organize a full meeting to review all the actions of this stage!"

"You know, during these six days, we spend most of our time rushing, with few effective information points and even limited communication with each other."

"If we can gather all these information points and fill in the gaps in clues, we will likely find the line connecting these unexpected ones."

"As long as you find this line, the problem can be solved naturally."

“Is this effective?”

Qinghao asked with some doubts.

Zhang Fu pondered for a moment and said:

"I won't say if it's not effective. You are the one who experiences it personally. Come on, I'll ask you now, what are the whole story you took the wrong path?"

"What I'm talking about is the whole process, including the communication and interaction with others, starting with us going down to Chidan Mountain!"

Qinghao took out his notebook from his pocket and opened it. While browsing his work records, he spoke:

"After getting off the Akadan, I remember the first time I looked at GPS positioning. Everything was normal at that time. The stroke of leading the team down the mountain was very high, and I didn't communicate with everyone else."

"At the foot of Chidan Mountain, we had a short rest and supply. At this time, in the valley, the altitude was low and the wind was weaker, and the team began to divide into small groups for lunch."

"I went out alone to investigate the road conditions for a short distance alone--no more than 5 minutes to leave the team, and the distance from the front is up to 200 meters, and there was no accident."

"I then returned to the rest point and chatted with a few people in the team."

"At that time, everyone was very positive. After all, although there were so many accidents before, they all turned into danger. One stage was already in sight, and the route was clear. All that was left was to hurry up."

"Do you remember what you said to whom?"

Zhang Fu interrupted Qinghao's words.

Qinghao wrote and painted on the notebook, and answered:

"The first person I met was Liu Chu who was on guard on the periphery. He had not had a good rest these days. I asked him how he was in physical condition. He replied that he was far worse than the Devil Week in the army. I said that when I arrived in Taohuagou, I had a good rest for two days, there was only so much."

"The second one is Shu Fang. He asked me if the road ahead is easy to walk. I said it was pretty good, the soil layer was very hard and there was not much snow. Then he said OK, it seems that there is no difficulty in the future, so there is no following."

"The third one is Liu Xiang. He also asked me about the road conditions and his answer was similar to Shu Fang. He told me not to be too anxious, and I could walk through the rest of the road with my eyes closed."

"In the end, it's Chen Wu----it's exactly the same. By now, it's basically successful. You can walk out by walking along the river valley, and you don't need to look at the map. I replied to him that although this terrain is simple, if you don't look at the map or not, you may still go astray if you don't look at the map. He said that GPS may not be accurate, especially when the terrain is complex."

"I didn't argue with him. I found my backpack and took a few bites and led the team to set off."

"At the location of 95.3538e and 29.918n, I checked gps for the first time and pointed the way, but after walking for 10 minutes, I felt the slope was rising, so I repositioned and found that the previous reading was inaccurate."

"From the gps record, our location was at 95.3578e at that time, which was already on the east side of the valley, but I thought it was on the west side, so I led the way to the east."

"After I found the problem, I immediately adjusted the route and returned to the main route, and there was no problem again."

After listening to Qing Hao's narration, Zhang Fu vaguely felt that he had caught something, so he asked:

"When you first positioned, did you make sure you didn't do a secondary verification? If it were me, I would do a secondary verification every time I read it."

Qinghao shook his head and replied:

"No, at that time, I thought this valley was a road that was dark and could reach the end by relying on the terrain, so I didn't care much about the data of GPS..."

"Why don't you care? This is in the middle of the snow-capped mountains! The vision is unreliable!"

"Yes, I know, but..."

Speaking of this, Qinghao suddenly raised his head.

He also found the problem.

Why don’t you care?

In the wild, when precision equipment is available and accurate, it is extremely ridiculous to rely on the equipment instead of relying on one's own experience.

But, I did that myself.

What affected yourself?

Looking at Qing Hao's astonished expression, Zhang Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"I probably guessed what's going on... Now, tell me, who has a psychological background in the team?"
