"The woods ahead are where the old man surnamed Xu was talking about."
Wan Li pointed to a forest a hundred meters away. After breakfast, Wan Li drove Chujiu and I into the mountain. The car stopped at the foot of the mountain. After walking for more than an hour, we finally arrived at our destination.
I stood halfway up the mountain and looked around. This was a canyon surrounded by mountains on three sides. Where Wanli pointed, it was a small depression halfway up the mountain that backed into the valley.
Directly in front of the depression, more than ten kilometers away, a large river can be vaguely seen.
If it is really a spiritual snake crossing the tribulation, then it 100% swam from the Yangtze River to this valley. And this location should have been selected by Grandpa and the others.
As for whether there is a formation, I'm not good at it. I can only tell that this position is at the junction of the front paws and the abdomen of the dragon's veins on this mountain. There may be some special explanation for overcoming tribulation at this position. I guess it should be possible.
Increase its success rate in overcoming tribulation.
I asked Chujiu, and Chujiu told me that he didn’t know much about it. There were very few books on this subject at home, and it seemed that his grandfather had taken them away or hid them.
Wan Li took us to the place that the old man named Xu mentioned.
It is a lush and chaotic forest, with a large number of pine trees, cypress trees, and fir trees, and the others are some other tree species that are rarely seen in ordinary times.
The forest floor was covered with dead leaves, which crunched underfoot.
We walked along this ten-acre forest to the end and stood on the edge of a cliff. We watched the lush trees below the cliff swaying in the wind.
Everything was so normal. Not to mention the ground struck by lightning, not even a single special leaf was found.
There was some moisture on the surface of the two-inch-thick fallen leaves, and the parts close to the ground were only slightly moist. It was impossible to tell that there had been a heavy downpour a few days ago.
Chu Jiu picked up a red and yellow fallen leaf, held it in his hand and dangled it.
Wan Li simply squatted on a broken tree stump: "Don't look, I have been here three times and found nothing. I was in the army for the first two years, in the reconnaissance company. If there are any subtle abnormalities, I can still find them."
.”
"Go back, there's nothing left to see."
Chujiu threw away the leaves in his hands and walked back after saying that. He was still talking about the damn leaves and soiled his white sneakers.
Wan Li followed Chujiu and agreed, he had known this would be the result.
After walking for more than half an hour, we returned to the path on the mountainside. Wan Li pointed to a big tree and said, this is the tree where the old man named Xu was hiding from wild beasts.
Chujiu ran under the big tree, looked up and down, and leaned on the big tree in a decent manner, staring at the woods we had just been to.
Wan Li walked to Chujiu, reached out and rubbed Chujiu's head.
"What's wrong? My apprentice wants to be a great detective? How about imitating other people's situational reasoning? Do you have enough brains?"
After competing with Wan Li on the ninth day of the morning, the two suddenly became very affectionate. I summed it up as they cherished each other.
Wan Li made an agreement with Chujiu to teach him how to drive on the way back to Sichuan after we were sent here. So Wan Li became Chujiu’s driving master.
What Wan Li said is situational reasoning, which is a way of reconnaissance activities. Based on the known information and clues, investigators can deduce multiple hypotheses at the scene of the incident and the environment through multiple simulations in their minds, and then based on the hypotheses
Come to verify the case.
"What kind of situational reasoning? I just feel like it's weird."
After Chujiu finished speaking, he pulled me under the big tree and asked me if I felt this way.
I leaned against the tree and looked at the forest. I couldn't tell what I was feeling. I just felt that something was not right, but I couldn't tell what it was.
"It's better to go back and think about it again. I feel like I feel very uncomfortable as soon as I arrive at this place."
Wan Li urged Chujiu and I to go back quickly. In his eyes, protecting Mr. Xu's safety is more important than anything else.
On the way down the mountain, I couldn't help but think about what place it was that made me feel strange.
At the foot of the mountain, I saw Wanli's jeep driving in the distance. Suddenly a light flashed through my mind, and I finally thought about what made me feel a strange feeling.
The cliff, the cliff we were standing next to chatting before. Later, when we returned to the tree where the old man surnamed Xu was hiding from the wild beasts, we could not see the cliff.
With a "U" shape surrounded by mountains on three sides, there is no chance of a cliff appearing in that direction. Whether it is from the Feng Shui pattern or the geographical topography, there shouldn't be such a deep cliff in that place.
"Go back! Go back!" In order to confirm my guess, I stopped Chujiu and Wan Li, turned around and ran back.
Wan Li was a little hesitant, but seeing Chujiu following me, he quickened his pace to catch up with us.
"Guo Guo, what happened? What did you find?"
Chujiu followed me to the mountainside and asked me with some doubts.
I didn't know if my guess was correct, and I didn't know how to explain it to Chujiu. I could only tell him that I seemed to have discovered something unusual, and I would only know the specific location.
I ran to the edge of the cliff in the woods in one breath. I gasped and looked at the scenery under the cliff.
"Guo Guo, didn't we just take a look? We found nothing unusual."
Chujiu stood behind me, laughing at me for being out of breath after running a few steps. It was true that Chujiu and Wanli were just breathing a little quickly, not gasping for air.
"On the ninth day of the lunar month, Brother Wanli, take a closer look at this cliff and think about what you just saw."
By this time, I had discovered anomalies, which further confirmed my thoughts.
"Guo Guo, you are so startled that you are just a savage, what do you think you are worth?"
As soon as Chujiu opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Wan Li. Wan Li asked Chujiu not to make any noise. He seemed to have noticed something strange.
I saw Wanli closing his eyes, frowning, thinking hard. After a while, Wanli suddenly opened his eyes, looked at me and said: "It's exactly the same as before, without any change. This is the problem I discovered, but
But I don’t know how to explain it specifically?”
"Like a painting?"
I reminded him, and Wan Li nodded in agreement. That's how it felt. As a soldier king who had served in the reconnaissance company, he would be able to discover such details.
Chujiu on the side looked at me and Wan Li with a confused face.
"Guo Guo, what on earth are you talking about? What's so weird about this ravine?"
Wan Li wanted to explain to Chujiu, but he didn't know what to say, so he looked at me helplessly.
I casually picked up a palm-sized stone from the ground and threw it towards the cliff.
"Holy shit!"
When Wan Li saw the stone hanging in the air, he sighed, "I always thought that soldiers wouldn't swear."
The stone I threw hung steadily above the cliff, parallel to the ground under my feet. I threw a bunch of leaves casually, and a road paved with leaves started from my feet and appeared above the cliff.
