Chapter 328: Bravely Entering Death Valley
Seeing Old Li leading his men to Death Valley, the village chief couldn't help but shout, "Old Li, do you want to die? How dare you go in?"
Especially when they saw a little girl following beside them, they felt that they were courting death!
Sun Hongbing's car had just started and he quickly got out.
Explain to the villagers.
Old Li waved his hand and said, "Human lives are at stake. Several soldiers have been trapped in the mountains for several days. If we don't go, they will probably die. I, Old Li, am about to go to the grave. These soldiers are risking their lives to protect us. We can't just watch them die in there! Zhusheng, take the children back. Even if I, Old Li, die in there, it can be regarded as returning to my roots and not leaving our Lijiatun!"
After hearing what he said, the villagers' eyes suddenly turned red and they looked at the direction he left with reluctance on their faces.
The village chief was the one he referred to as Li Zhusheng. The two of them grew up together, peeing and playing in the mud. The last time he went in, he almost died before he came out. He was scared to death.
After he came out, he refused to say a word about what happened inside. I guess he was scared.
Unexpectedly, when he was very old, he brought people in again.
His son beside him couldn't help but say, "Dad, are we really going to watch Uncle Li die?"
Li Zhusheng wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and sighed deeply.
Looking at the young men in the village behind him, he said, "Your Uncle Li is a real man, the pride of our Lijiatun. He is right. These soldiers risked their lives and shed blood to protect us. It is not easy for us to have the happy life we have now. Now they are in trouble, we should save them!"
"Erniu, find a few young men from the village, bring some things, and take turns guarding here. If you see your uncle Li and the others coming out, go and help them!"
When the young man named Erniu heard this, he immediately nodded: "Yes!"
After saying that, he went to the village to call people to prepare things.
However, Sun Hongbing, who had been watching this scene, was deeply moved.
"Uncle, thank you! Thank you!! On behalf of my trapped brothers, thank you. On behalf of all our brothers in the army, thank you..."
Li Zhusheng waved his hands and said, "What are you talking about, kid? We should thank you. If it weren't for you defending our country, we ordinary people wouldn't be able to live the good life we have now! Don't say anything, kid, go and do your work. We will help you guard this place. If they come out, we will definitely notify you right away!"
Sun Hongbing nodded with red eyes.
"good!"
After saying that, without further delay, he turned around and got in the car.
His sister-in-law and Lao Zheng have already gone in, so he has to seize every moment and find a way to clear the road! Time is life nowadays!
They are just racing against time!
Song Shiwei, who had already followed Old Li into the Death Valley, also discovered something was wrong. As they walked inside, it felt like fog had risen, and the originally lush forest became hazy.
Old Li quickly unscrewed a kettle, wet his sleeves, turned his head and said to Song Shiwei and Old Zheng: "Quick, wet your sleeves with water, and then cover your mouth and nose. This is miasma, it's poisonous, and it will easily cause hallucinations if you inhale it for a long time!"
Song Shiwei and Lao Zheng looked at each other and quickly did as they were told.
When she was done, she covered her nose and looked up again, and found that the scene in front of her became more and more weird.
In just a short while, the originally thin fog had turned into a vast expanse of white. The visibility was very low and she could not even see Old Zheng and Uncle Li beside her clearly.
Old Li obviously noticed it too.
He shouted, "Don't move, the fog is too thick. We could easily get separated. If we do get separated, it could be dangerous! The best thing is for us to all hold on to each other!"
As he spoke, he touched the hemp rope wrapped around his waist, untied it and handed it to Song Shiwei.
"Girl, you go in the middle, and boy, you go at the end!"
Song Shiwei grabbed the rope as he was told, but Old Zheng felt a little embarrassed when he heard him calling him "kid".
A hand grabbed the end of the rope and explained, "Uncle Li, you can just call me Xiao Zheng!"
Song Shiwei also introduced herself: "Uncle Li, my name is Song Shiwei, you can call me Weiwei or Xiao Song!"
Old Li didn't think too much about it. He had to analyze the current situation.
"Okay, Xiao Song, Xiao Zheng!"
The three people were like grasshoppers tied to a rope, groping forward bit by bit.
The fog was so thick that they didn't dare walk too fast. If they were not careful, they would easily trip over the rocks or tree roots on the ground. If there were any sharp objects nearby, it would be fatal.
Fortunately, Old Li came in once. He found a wooden stick and slowly moved forward in the direction he had walked last time.
All three of them held their breath, holding the hemp rope with one hand and covering their mouths and noses tightly with the other hand, for fear of inhaling miasma, and walked forward carefully.
Fortunately, the miasma only exists in the direction of the entrance. Following Old Li, Song Shiwei felt that the fog in front of him seemed to be becoming thinner and thinner.
The grass in front seems to be visible in the distance.
Lao Zheng's eyes were also full of joy.
This shows that they have come out of the miasma.
Once we got out of the forest, the view in front of us suddenly became clear.
There was a whole new world inside. In front of me was a particularly large lake covered with lush grass. The grass had grown very tall because no one had been here for years. Some of the weeds were even waist-high.
However, this canyon is not very deep, but both sides are lined with pink and crystal stones. These stones should have been catalyzed by the wind, and they are layered, and some are about to fall off.
There are a lot of large and small stones falling above, which turn into stone powder over time, so there is a thick layer of pink stone powder below.
Old Li looked at the stones on both sides with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: "Don't think you'll be safe once you get rid of the miasma. The stones on both sides are big and will fall from time to time. This road is very long. When you pass through here, you must be careful not to be hit by the stones!"
It was a sunny day when he came last time, and he had a very deep memory of these stones because they were so bright under the scorching sun that they were almost blinding.
Those crystal things were like small mirrors, reflecting light. In the entire canyon, no one dared to open their eyes for fear of being blinded.
Not only that, but you also have to be wary of rocks falling from above, which can kill you if you're not careful.
I guess this is why there is no miasma on this road, mainly because the sunlight is too strong.
This time, the weather was just right, the rain had stopped, it was cloudy and there was no sunshine, but the road was clearly visible. I thought as long as I could avoid being hit by the rocks above, it should be fine!
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard loud noises from the front, "Crash! Crash!", "Bang!", and countless rocks fell off the cliff on the left.
