Chapter 286 Try
Not only Ding Sitian, but also everyone else looked at Chen Ziyan, wanting to see what he would say.
To be more precise, I want to know the solution from him.
No matter whether there is a waterfall or not, we can’t move forward any further.
Wang Kaixuan was the most impatient. After waiting for a while, he couldn't help but ask: "Master Chen, where should we go next?"
The reason why he asked this was because through the light escaping from the searchlight, he could see some caves on the mountain wall next to them, which would undoubtedly be their choice.
"Don't worry, let me take a look." Chen Ziyan replied casually, and then controlled the searchlight in his hand to turn towards the mountain wall.
Then they saw the caves on the mountain wall, arranged in a unique order, and the traces of manual excavation were difficult to conceal.
At the junction of the mountain wall and the river, there are some simple stone steps, which further proves that this is a man-made construction.
“Look, there are dead bones over there!” Wang Kaixuan pointed in one direction and said.
When Chen Ziyan shined the searchlight over, he saw dozens of human skeletons scattered around where he pointed.
There is only a skeleton left of these skeletons, and they are still wearing armor that has long been lost. They look like some soldiers.
"It is mentioned in the information that there was a group of rebels who used Zhelong Mountain as a stronghold to fight against the government troops. Now it seems that these are the ones." Chen Ziyan said.
Although those armors and weapons were already in decay and it was impossible to tell which dynasty or generation they belonged to, judging from the outline of the shapes, it was no surprise that they were products of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, which matched them exactly. corresponding to the data.
"If these people are familiar with the situation here, then is the cave closest to them the exit from here?" Wang Kaixuan suddenly proposed such an idea.
"It's possible, but it's more likely to be the area where they live." Shirley Yang looked at other caves and said.
"Whether it is possible or not, we have to give it a try." Chen Ziyan thought for a while and made a decision directly: "Now the boat can no longer continue, although there are other caves where the boat can be launched Go in, but this is probably because the water surface has become higher. If the water surface drops when we come out, the boat will be trapped inside. "
Although this is only a possibility, none of them can. They don't want to face this situation, but they must know that the Sabertooth Viper is still in the water. Without this boat, what will they get back?
At this moment, Hu Bayi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked at the waterfall in front of him and said, "Do you think that underneath this waterfall is the other side of Zhelong Mountain?"
Everyone else fell into thinking because of his words. Only Chen Ziyan did not think too much. Although he could not remember the specific situation here, he knew that after leaving the waterfall, he should still have to walk some distance. Just leave the mountain.
But just when he was thinking about this, Chen Ziyan suddenly had an idea flash in his mind and thought of another thing.
If he remembered correctly, in the original plot, when Hu Bayi and others arrived at the waterfall, they seemed to see a waterway on the opposite side.
Can they take advantage of it now?
Thinking of this possibility, Chen Ziyan said to Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, do you think there will be another waterway to get out of here?"
Hu Bayi was surprised by his sudden words. Asked, he was stunned at first, and then said thoughtfully: "It's not impossible. The information mentioned that the place where we came in has a waterway that can lead directly to the other side of the mountain."
< br>
They had talked about it before, and finally concluded that the water channel they entered was different from the one mentioned in the data because the water level had risen due to continuous rain.
So in theory, as long as they can find the cave leading to the waterway, they can reach the other side of Zhelong Mountain smoothly.
Wang Kaixuan frowned and said: "But there is no way to find that waterway at this time. We can't try it one by one." He was reminding Hu Bayi not to just think of it in a hot head. It's one out.
This is not easy to say, let alone implement.
"That's true." Hu Bayi nodded in agreement.
He himself also knew that this matter was not that simple. He just considered the feasibility just now.
At this moment, Chen Ziyan suddenly asked Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, do you want to take a gamble!"
"What to bet on?" Hu Bayi looked at him in confusion. he.
Chen Ziyan turned the direction of the searchlight, pointed at a naturally wide crack on the opposite side, and said, "Let's bet on whether we can get out from here!"
In fact, Chen Ziyan said it was a bet, but he was at least 30% sure that the natural rock crevice he pointed to was the path they were looking for.
When Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were talking, he recalled the memories about this place again, and finally discovered a point worth paying attention to, that is, it was said in the original plot that it could go straight to the entire mountain. The waterway probably only appeared in recent decades, so the only naturally occurring outlet in the surrounding area caught his attention.
Of course, Chen Ziyan didn’t know what was inside after all, so he was only 30% sure.
But he felt that even if this road was not direct, it should be able to save them some distance.
Anyway, we get off the boat and walk through the mountains, so why not try it one more time.
Even if it really doesn't work, they can come back here again and they have the opportunity to try and make mistakes.
Hu Bayi frowned and glanced at the rock crevice pointed by Chen Ziyan, thought for a moment and said, "We can give it a try."
He observed the water flow in the rock crevice and found that It's quite impressive, which means that the space inside is not too small, and you can turn around and go back even if something goes wrong, so I said you can give it a try.
After receiving Hu Bayi's response, Chen Ziyan looked at the others: "Everyone, what do you think?"
The reason why he asked Hu Bayi first was because from some kind of To a certain extent, this guy can represent Wang Kaixuan and Ding Sitian, and he himself can somewhat represent Shirley Yang, so the two of them can make preliminary decisions on some things.
Chen Ziyan knows very well that if he wants to make a decision, the more people involved, the more confused he will be, so before making important decisions, he will try to keep the number of people participating in the discussion to a minimum.
As for asking other people now, it’s not just a formality, but I want to hear if they have anything to add.
Wang Kaixuan shook his head decisively: "No, I will go wherever you go."
Ding Sitian glanced at Hu Bayi, and then shook her head slightly: "I have no problem either. . "
As for Shirley Yang, who was represented, she said directly to Chen Ziyan: "Let's go, it's really worth trying."
After getting everyone's approval, Hu Bayi turned the bow of the boat and sailed towards the crevice without any ink.
