The further you go up the mountain, the more complex the surrounding environment becomes. The trees here are large and small and uneven in height, a bit like traces of ancient formations.
Moreover, he saw some extremely thick trees, which were as thick as five or six people's arms. The trees were towering, very tall, and obviously different from the surrounding trees.
Each of these thick ancient trees is engraved with ancient incantations. The incantations have been blurred and cannot be seen clearly, but the tree branches are all connected with colorful silk strips to form strange shapes.
, they fell there one after another, forming a protective spell barrier...
"This is the barrier left by our ancestors...",
Humeng said to everyone as he walked:
“Since I was very young, my grandfather often took us boys here to play. At that time, I especially liked to use a knife to dig the bark of these big trees, and my grandfather would hit my hands...
He told me that these big trees with incantations on them are sacred trees. There is a human head hidden in each big tree, which was left by our ancestors to protect us.
It is said that a long time ago, there used to be many evil spirits in this mountain. They were very ferocious and often devoured us Mongolians. At that time, our mountains were still uncivilized mountain people and there was nothing we could do about these spirits.
But the people of our Golden Family were very brave. They captured all those demons, cut off their heads, and sealed them in these big trees.
Then our Mongolian mages tied magic belts with incantations on the outside of the big tree. From then on, these monsters can only guard the mountain for us! The deeper their resentment in the big tree, the stronger their power, and they can control the mountain.
The sneaky demons who try to sneak into the mountain are blocked outside the mountain~~~~"
"I asked you, could you please stop being so scary? We are not here to hear ghost stories...,"
Fat Wei pulled the ghost sword and climbed up step by step. Since he lost his sight, his nerves have become extremely fragile. "Can you stop being so cautious? There are monsters sealed in the big tree. I don't know if I can't see it now."
Ah? If you tell me, I won’t dare to go up there..."
"Hey~~~~", this is nothing more than a legend from the past."
Humeng said with a smile: "As for whether there is a human head in the big tree, no one knows. None of us have cut it open to see. I guess they are all made up~~~~
But look at these big trees, they are indeed extraordinary. Such thick trees are rare in the mountains..."
"indeed so!!"
Chen Zhi nodded slightly, then stood and looked carefully at those yellow cloth straps!!!
The positions of those cloth strips are very regular, one layer on top of the other, with new cloth strips stacked on top of old cloth strips, with incantations written in red cinnabar on them, but the style is very rough, a bit like ancient shamanism~~
~
The arrangement of the mantras on each big tree is different, but the positions of the big trees are criss-crossed and lined up, just like the positions of the stars, forming a tight encirclement that completely surrounds the mountain...
…
Chen Zhi knew in his heart that this was a very ancient protective barrier, and it was very powerful, so powerful that it was unimaginable!!!
The person who set up this ancient barrier can no longer be traced, but what is certain is that with the protection of this powerful barrier, it is difficult for outside forces to invade this mountain~~~
But for some unknown reason, a gap has opened in this ancient barrier, just like an entrance to an unbreakable castle has been opened. Now the barrier has failed...
Chen Zhi didn't say anything, he just touched the thick tree trunks, then turned back and continued climbing~~
Since Humeng knew the geographical location here very well, they climbed up quickly.
It's just that Fat Wei was chirping along the way. One moment he complained that he couldn't see, another moment he complained that Chen Zhi had no conscience, and then he said that he had leg cramps and had to kill him with a ghost knife. Everyone was so angry that they wanted to kill him.
Buried in the mountains, the corpses destroyed and no trace left...
After more than an hour, they finally arrived at the miner's village on the mountainside.
Although this is a village, it is actually a large mining base. The village is located in the middle of the mountain road, which is the entrance to the mountain from the outside...
The houses here are all simple houses, basically made of temporary iron sheets. They are exactly the same as the simple houses seen in the mines now, but there are a lot of dried milk skins outside the house, and some even have women's clothes hanging on them.
.It can be seen that many family members lived here in the past...
After Hu Meng led everyone into the village, he shouted a few times...
A few gray-faced old miners came out!!! Most of them were relatively old, their legs and feet were not very sharp, and they all had frightened expressions on their faces. They were very happy when they saw Humeng coming, and they held Humeng's hand with tears in their eyes.
, tell their sufferings.
They told Humeng that in just a few days, there was basically no one in the village. They stayed here because they had nowhere to go, but they were frightened and miserable every night...
Hu Meng comforted them a few words on behalf of the Golden Family, and then took Chen Zhi and the others into the house where the mine owner originally lived, where Fu Yuanyuan's husband once lived.
It was a small building made of wood and cement. It was obviously much more spacious and brighter than the houses where the miners lived here, and most of them were equipped with modern facilities, such as TVs, lights, and refrigerators!!!
After Humeng opened the door, there was an unpleasant smell inside, as if the food had fermented. It seemed that no one had entered the room since the mine owner died here~~~
"This is where my dead uncle lived...",
After Hu Meng entered, he wanted to turn on the lights in the room, but the power here seemed to have stopped. Hu Meng had no choice but to turn on the flashlight and lead everyone inside.
The layout of the house is not complicated. After passing through the kitchen, there is the master bedroom, and there is a bath in the master bedroom.
"My uncle died in this bath...",
After Humeng finished speaking, he pushed open the door of the bathtub and shined a flashlight from left to right.
I saw traces of water flowing everywhere in the bathroom, and there were obvious residues of cinders on the floor, making the bathroom dirty~~
"This thing is really strange...",
Hu Meng turned around and said to everyone:
"When they found my uncle, they found that his body was covered in cinders. It felt like he was buried in thick cinders.
Later, I heard the autopsy person say that his lungs and stomach were full of cinders, which was very incredible..."
"Does your uncle live here alone?",
Chen Zhi knelt down, picked up the cinders on the ground with his hands, and asked Meng Dao.
"no!!",
Humeng shook his head: "My uncle lived here with his wife at the time, the Chinese woman you saw."
Humeng smiled again when he said this,
"Of course, my uncle is a playboy. When he was here, he would bring in new women almost every day.
But it is impossible for these women to kill my uncle, because my uncle is very strong, even at this age, he can still wrestle with me~~~"
After Hu Meng finished speaking, he pointed to the cinders on the ground.
"I always feel that there must be something hidden in the Kent Mountain coal mine. They crawled out from the ground and killed my uncle..."
