749: Exploring the Yellow Spring Road at Wawu Mountain (Part 1)
In that spacious conference room, perpetually shrouded in mystery, the lights flickered dimly, as if threatened to be extinguished at any moment by some unknown force. On the massive projection screen, satellite images of Huangquan Road in Wawu Mountain, Sichuan, appeared particularly eerie. Amidst the rolling hills, the area perpetually shrouded in mist and cloud seemed like a gaping maw deep within the earth, ready to devour anything that approached.
The director's expression was solemn. His gaze swept across the crowd gathered around the conference table, finally landing on Lin Yu and Ouyang Zhenghao. He spoke slowly, "The Yellow Springs Road in Wawu Mountain, Sichuan, has been sealed for 400 years. From ancient times to the present, countless people have attempted to penetrate it, whether they were experienced hunters, villagers familiar with the mountains and forests, well-equipped soldiers, or professional researchers, but most have never returned. This time, after careful consideration, the bureau has decided to send you to investigate and uncover the truth behind this.
Lin Yu nodded slightly, his eyes fixed on the image of the Yellow Springs Road on the screen, thinking to himself, "With so many people missing, this Yellow Springs Road must be shrouded in dangers beyond imagination, perhaps even involving extremely powerful supernatural forces. This will be an unprecedented challenge." He took a deep breath, raised his head, and replied to the director with a firm gaze, "Director, rest assured. Ouyang Zhenghao and I will live up to our mission and do our utmost to get to the bottom of this matter."
Ouyang Zhenghao rubbed his hands together, his eyes gleaming with excitement and fearlessness. "Who cares about the Yellow Springs Road, demons, and monsters? I, Ouyang Zhenghao, am going to meet them. It's a good opportunity to stretch my muscles and let those mysterious forces see the might of our 749th Bureau."
In the days that followed, everyone worked feverishly to prepare the equipment needed for this expedition. Advanced positioning equipment, specialized communication devices, various self-defense weapons, and mysterious props for combating supernatural phenomena were carefully inspected and organized. Each piece of equipment carried their reverence for the unknown and their determination to explore.
A few days later, Lin Yu and his group arrived at the foot of Wawu Mountain in Sichuan. Looking up, Wawu Mountain towered into the clouds, its summit tightly shrouded in thick mist, as if it were another world, cut off from the mortal world. The mountain wind howled, carrying wisps of chill, like countless icy tentacles, wantonly burrowing into everyone's collars, causing them to rustle.
Lin Yu looked at the mysterious mountain before him, a strong sense of mission welling up in his heart, mixed with a hint of indescribable worry: "I'm afraid this journey will not be easy. Everyone must remain highly vigilant and pay attention to the surrounding movements at all times. If we are not careful, we may fall into an irretrievable situation."
Ouyang Zhenghao nodded vigorously, his eyes full of determination: "Don't worry, Lin Yu. When have we in Bureau 749 ever been afraid? Even if it's a dangerous place, we have to go through it."
The team slowly advanced along the winding mountain path, surrounded by lush greenery, blocking out the sun. Sunlight struggled to filter through the interstices between the layers of leaves, casting only patches of shimmering light and shadow on the ground, as if countless pairs of uncanny eyes were watching their every move. The occasional call of an unknown bird stood out in the eerie silence of the forest, its sharp shrieks piercing the air like some ominous omen, instantly setting everyone's nerves on edge.
As they went deeper into the forest, the atmosphere around them became increasingly eerie. The once clear mountain path gradually became blurred and indistinguishable, as if deliberately obliterated by an invisible and sinister force. Lin Yu stared at the positioning device in his hand, his brow furrowed ever more tightly. The signal on the device screen began to fluctuate violently, and the pointer jumped wildly. "Strange, the signal from this positioning device is fluctuating abnormally. Is it due to some powerful interference? Or is there a mysterious force in this Yellow Springs Road that is disrupting the signal?"
Ouyang Zhenghao looked around warily and said in a low voice, "I think this place is very evil. Maybe from the moment we stepped into the forest, something has been watching us in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to launch a fatal attack."
At this moment, the team member walking in front of the team suddenly stopped, pointed ahead with a pale face and said, "Captain, look, there seems to be a faint path ahead. Is this the legendary Yellow Spring Road?"
They looked in the direction of his finger and saw a narrow path vaguely visible among dense grass and a tangled web of branches, winding its way deeper into the forest. The trees on either side of the path were strangely twisted, their branches like demonic fangs and claws, swaying in the wind, as if issuing a silent warning, stopping them from moving forward.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm his pounding heart, and said, "Whether it is true or not, we must go find out. Everyone, follow me closely, keep communication open, and don't fall behind."
The moment they cautiously set foot on this mysterious path, a bone-chilling chill washed over them, like an icy breath gushing from the depths of Hell, instantly penetrating their clothing and penetrating their very bones. The temperature plummeted, and the team members shuddered. Ouyang Zhenghao rubbed his hands and muttered, "This temperature drop is incredibly sudden! It seems we've entered an extremely unusual area. We'll have to be extra cautious."
After walking along the path for a distance, a sudden, eerie fog surged in from all directions. The fog was so thick it seemed to be a substance, like a vast gray curtain, instantly enveloping everyone. Vision became extremely blurry, and the team members could only see each other's blurred outlines, as if they were in a chaotic world. Lin Yu shouted, "Everyone, don't panic. Stay where you are. Quickly turn on the lights and maintain communication!"
