Xiao Tianhong was startled, and he just asked casually. He didn't expect that Chen Ran not only had something to say, but also had different opinions. This made him strange, and asked: "Well, tell me."
Xiao Jun and Zhou Cheng also looked at Chen Ran in surprise.
Chen Ran nodded first, thought for a while, and then said: "Second uncle, let me ask a question first, that is, when do you think this map where Mr. Xiao's bones are buried was made?"
This question asked by Chen Ran made Xiao Tianhong, Xiao Jun, and Zhou Chengdu stunned. How could it be related to the map? Why should I ask?
Chen Ran knew what they were thinking by looking at their expressions, so without waiting for their answer, he continued: "Obviously, this map is where Xu Hui's grandfather took Mr. Xiao into the mountains and fled to where Mr. Xiao's bones were buried.
There is no doubt that it was made locally. After all, Xu Hui's grandfather could not have thought of making a map when he first entered the mountains. There was no need for it. In that case, it was impossible for him to think of making a map.
Xu Hui's grandfather went to make a map, so it must have been made after burying Mr. Xiao. However, this is unreasonable. Xu Hui's grandfather took Mr. Xiao and fled into the mountains from outside. This escape must have lasted more than one day.
During the day, it was easier to say. At night, Xu Hui's grandfather must have been hiding in Tibet when he took Mr. Xiao to escape. How could he remember the way? In those days, there was no way for us to enter.
I have seen a map of this mountain road in the mountain. The route on the map is not this mountain road. No matter how good Xu Hui’s grandfather’s memory was, he would not have been able to remember it so clearly under the circumstances, but it is recorded on the map.
What I have here, although it is a sketch, there are mountains on both sides of the route, so the mountains are marked, if there are big rocks, there are big rocks, and if there is water, there is water. Although the map is rough, the route is very clear and accurate.
, I think the second uncle must have confirmed this when he came here? Does the second uncle think this is possible? "
Of course Chen Ran knew how to make this map. He was probably the only one in the world who knew about it. He could even guess the whole story clearly. This map was really Xu Hui's grandfather.
They made it when they entered the mountain. Their military commanders naturally had to leave a route when performing their mission, not to mention it was such a special mission.
Of course, he knew it, but he couldn't say it out loud.
The reason why he raised such a question was because he knew that searching according to Xiao Tianhong's idea would be fruitless, because according to Xiao Tianhong's idea, Xu Hui's grandfather carried a seriously injured man to the spring.
There are only two exits, one is the entrance, and the other is the route to the next treasure map. But if he follows the route on the treasure map he got into the mountain, according to the route on the treasure map and what he observed yesterday
Based on the terrain and his childhood impressions, Xu Hui's grandfather would not be able to reach that place if he carried a seriously injured person on his back, so he refuted Xiao Tianhong's idea first, otherwise his work would be in vain.
When Chen Ran was talking, Xiao Tianhong kept wondering. When he heard Chen Ran's question, he shook his head and murmured: "Impossible."
Xiao Jun was also stunned. Obviously, this was impossible, but Xu Hui's grandfather couldn't have thought of making a map when he went into the mountains.
Zhou Cheng suddenly said, "Could this be the route Xu Hui's grandfather took to escape from the mountains after burying Mr. Xiao?"
"That should be like this." Xiao Tianhong was startled again, and then nodded. After nodding, he rubbed his eyes vigorously with his hands and sighed: "In this case, we won't be able to use the method just now. If it is
As for the route out of the mountain, Xu Hui's grandfather is the only one who can escape. Xu Hui's grandfather has also undergone special training. When he escapes alone, even the cliffs cannot stop him."
Cliffs and cliffs are not necessarily the kind that often appear on TV, where you can't see the bottom and look like they are cut with a knife. There are still very few of them. Most of the cliffs are just steeper, but they are still slopes. For ordinary people,
It is basically impossible to climb, but it is not that difficult for those who climb often or have practiced.
"So if you want to find the place where the uncle's bones are buried, do you have to dig through all these mountains?"
Xiao Jun looked at the hills one after another in front of him and couldn't help but frown. According to the comparison of the blood fingerprints and springs on the map, there must be at least five or six hills. In other words, there are no places between these five or six hills.
It might be the place where his great-grandfather's body was buried, especially since it was still buried underground. There wasn't even a mark on the surface. It's been more than sixty years, so if you want to find it, you'd have to dig up it. Although Xu Hui's
Grandfather didn't bury his great-grandfather's body deeply, but just imagine how long it would take to dig. Each of these mountains is a very big one.
Xiao Tianhong also sighed, obviously very troubled, and he couldn't help complaining to Xu Hui's grandfather, you said that since you left a map, why did you leave a blank space for the bloody fingerprints and the spring?
If it's close and there's no route, it means it's nearby and that's fine. But it's obviously far away. How can I find it?
How could he have imagined that this map was not originally a map to find the remains of his uncle, but a map to a mysterious place.
I'm afraid only Chen Ran knows this secret.
"Chen Ran? Chen Ran..."
After Xiao Jun finished speaking, he suddenly noticed why Chen Ran didn't speak. He was the one who raised the question just now. He looked at him and found that he was in a daze, so he called him twice strangely.
"Well? Give me the binoculars." Xiao Jun shouted twice before waking up Chen Ran. When Chen Ran woke up, she asked Xiao Jun for the binoculars. Then he glanced around and took the binoculars.
They walked in the direction they came from. Of course, they were on top of a cliff.
Xiao Jun, Xiao Tianhong, and Zhou Cheng looked at each other in confusion. When they saw Chen Ran holding the telescope, he walked back for about ten meters. As if he was looking for a suitable position, he stood and tried several places before stopping and holding the telescope.
He looked towards the other side.
Chen Ran's strange look made them unable to help but walk over.
Xiao Tianhong and Zhou Cheng came over and started looking with telescopes, but they didn't know what Chen Ran was looking at, so they couldn't look at it and could only look at Chen Ran.
"Did you find anything?" Seeing Chen Ran put down the telescope, Xiao Jun couldn't help but ask.
Chen Ran looked at it twice more, thought about it, and then looked at Xiao Jun, Xiao Tianhong, and Zhou Cheng, and nodded: "Haha, I have an idea, maybe I can actually find the place."
Chen Ran's words made the three people present a little stunned. Even Xiao Jun who asked was also stunned. Although he also expected Chen Ran to find something, he didn't expect that Chen Ran actually had a clue.
Can find a place.
Xiao Jun was startled, then jumped up to Chen Ran and asked excitedly: "Really? What's the clue? Come and tell me."
Although Xiao Tianhong didn't say anything, after hearing Chen Ran's words, he couldn't help but took two steps forward and stared at him. Zhou Cheng, on the other hand, picked up the telescope and looked towards the opposite side, as if he wanted to know what he had seen.
What gave him a clue?
"Actually, it's quite easy to find that place." Chen Ran's opening made them stunned. Simple? If it were simple, why would they still sigh so much?
Xiao Jun looked at Chen Ran with wide eyes and asked in disbelief: "How can it be so simple?"
Xiao Tianhong and Zhou Cheng also looked at Chen Ran inexplicably. They were extremely worried, and they still said it was simple?
Chen Ran chuckled and asked instead, "Do you think we are standing where we are now?"
"Is it Wusong Mountain?" Xiao Jun and Zhou Cheng were both a little confused by Chen Ran's words, but Xiao Tianhong reacted and asked strangely.
Xiao Jun and Zhou Cheng looked at it and nodded. The place where they were standing was on Wusong Mountain. However, Wusong Mountain was actually a few green pine trees growing on the ridge below. They were standing on Wusong Mountain.
There were also two trees growing on the hilltop, one of which was right next to where they were standing.
"Haha, it is indeed Wusong Mountain." Chen Ran nodded, pointed to the bottom of the cliff and said: "To be precise, it should be the junction of Wusong Mountain and the spring. See if the spring below does not reach this place.
?”
Xiao Jun, Xiao Tianhong, and Zhou Chengdu looked along Chen Ran's hand and found that the pool under the cliff was exactly at this place. They found it, but they still didn't understand what Chen Ran meant.
Xiao Tianhong frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
Chen Ran nodded, waved his hand and said, "Second uncle, take out the map and see if the bloody handprint is exactly at the junction of the spring and Wusong Mountain. It is very accurate, almost on a straight line.
of?"
Xiao Tianhong was startled, and then he quickly took out the map from his pocket. Before he could open it, Xiao Jun and Zhou Cheng couldn't wait to move their heads over.
After opening the map, the three of them looked down and saw that it was exactly what Chen Ran said. The bloody handprint was at the junction of Wusong Mountain and Quanyan. It was almost exactly the same. At first, they didn't pay much attention to it. After all,
The distance between the blood handprint and the spring is so far, there is a large blank space in the middle, and there is no route. Even if they notice this, they won't think much about it, especially because the blood handprint is so big, they can't help but think about it.
The bloody handprint should mark the mountain where the bones were buried, not the specific place.
Chen Ran was able to notice it naturally because he had more clues and could almost guess the situation at that time.
Seeing that it was exactly what Chen Ran said, Xiao Jun immediately looked at Chen Ran with wide eyes. Although he still didn't know what Chen Ran was thinking about, he confirmed Chen Ran's statement. It was such a coincidence.
This undoubtedly shows that Chen Ran might actually have a way to find it.
"You can see the spring at a glance on the map, but in fact, the spring is under the cliff and cannot be seen at all. So why is this bloody handprint so accurately aimed at the junction of Wusong Mountain and the spring? This also explains
What? Especially the place where the map was made and the place where Mr. Xiao's body was buried are not the same place, so how did Xu Hui's grandfather mark it?" Chen Ran had already memorized the entire map in his mind, so he didn't know it at all.
No need to look, seeing that they all saw it, he asked again.
When Chen Ran asked, Xiao Jun and Zhou Cheng didn't understand what Chen Ran wanted to ask, but Xiao Tianhong immediately understood what Chen Ran meant. He looked at the distance and then at the place where they were standing.
His eyes lit up, he pointed to the pine tree next to them, and said excitedly: "I know, it's because of this pine tree. This means that Xu Hui's grandfather was very familiar with this spring when he buried his uncle's body.
He knew that there was a spring under the cliff to the left of the pine tree. He also explained that when he looked here from the place where the bloody handprints were, he could see the pine tree from a distance, even when Xu Hui's grandfather was burying his uncle's body.
I specifically looked for a place in this direction.”
When he said this, Xiao Tianhong suddenly felt that his voice was trembling!
If this is really the case, it will undoubtedly be much easier to find. This is almost like finding out the route. As long as you keep searching along this route, you can always find it.
In fact, Xiao Tianhong's analysis is almost exactly the same as the actual situation. The difference is that Xiao Tianhong believes that Xu Hui's grandfather buried his uncle's bones at the place where the blood handprint was, and then returned to this spring.
Then this map was made at this spring.
So after Xu Hui's grandfather buried the body of Grandpa Xiao Jun, did he return to this spring?
Chen Ran's guess was that he didn't come back. Xu Hui's grandfather must have escaped from another direction. Just now, he had been guessing the escape route of Xu Hui's grandfather.
According to Chen Ran's guess, the first is the route into the mountain, which is the route on the map. Since the spring appears on the map, Xu Hui's grandfather is naturally very familiar with the spring. Later, he followed the route on the map.
They arrived at the mysterious place, and then escaped from the mysterious place. Apparently, they later escaped to the place called Blood Handprint. However, the place of Blood Handprint was not on the map they originally made, so Xu Hui's grandfather added it.
This bloody handprint.
As he thought about it, Chen Ran thought about what Xu Hui's grandfather used as a reference for adding the blood handprint. After all, the blood handprint was not originally on the map they made. Now that Xu Hui's grandfather has been added,
There must be a reference. When he thought of this, the route on the map appeared in his mind. In such a big mountain, maybe at night, the place that appeared on the map could also be used as a reference for Xu Hui's grandfather.
There really aren't many things left, no doubt there are only these two pine trees.
Xu Hui's grandfather must have observed these two pine trees when he first made the map and knew that there was a spring under the pine tree.
Why is there no route between the bloody handprint and the spring?
That means that Xu Hui's grandfather added a bloody fingerprint based on the reference and fled in another direction without returning to the spring. In this case, there would naturally be no route. Furthermore, Xu Hui's grandfather was buried in
Grandpa Xiao Jun probably would have chosen a place nearby when he was a child. Maybe he chose the place specifically in the direction of this pine tree. After all, he had no intention of returning to the spring, so there was no way he could make bleeding fingerprints.
The map can only be used as a reference to select such a special place based on this pine tree.
"Look at the mountain opposite. This mountain almost blocks the view of all the places facing this direction. This mountain is so close. It must not be the mountain where Mr. Xiao's bones are buried. Otherwise, it would be on the map.
It won’t be marked like this anymore, and except for this big mountain, behind this big mountain, there are actually not many places where you can see this pine tree from the opposite position. As long as we go to the opposite big mountain and take a look, basically
We can find the mountain where Mr. Xiao’s bones are buried.”
Just when Xiao Jun and Xiao Tianhong were excitedly looking in the direction of the pine tree with telescopes, Chen Ran's voice sounded in their ears again.
I didn't pay attention to this before, but now I have noticed it after being reminded by Chen Ran. How could Xiao Tianhong not notice this yet? After Chen Ran finished speaking, he also discovered this. He suppressed the excitement in his heart, took away the telescope, and turned his head.
He gave instructions to Zhou Cheng: "Zhou Cheng, call the people over immediately, hurry!"
