Chapter 791 The Mysterious Land
Kuang Ji was located a few kilometers ahead of the scientific expedition team, and seeing that they would meet each other soon, he told the two women what he had discovered.

Fu Yuqing knew a little about Mr. Zhai. When he learned that Mr. Zhai had entered the mountain with the scientific expedition team, he quickly thought that the purpose of the scientific expedition team would not be simple.If it is an ordinary scientific expedition team, Mr. Zhai will not easily come out of the mountain to be a guide. Only those with official background or sky-high invitations can invite Mr. Zhai, and it is impossible for a scientific expedition team of this nature to enter the mountain for no reason. inspected.

Kuangji also shared his guess. Although the two women found it a bit unbelievable, they also wanted to know what secrets the scientific expedition team had, so they agreed to Kuangji's proposal and planned to avoid them first in order to follow them.

The speed of the scientific expedition team was not slow. Counting from leaving Zhai Lao's residence yesterday, they actually traveled tens of miles of mountains in one day and one night. It can be seen that they did not delay along the way.

At this moment, several older members of the scientific expedition team were already a little out of breath. They were walking at the back of the team, obviously dragging their feet.Although Old Zhai didn't bear any weight on his body, he was the oldest among all the people, and there was a trace of exhaustion on his face at this moment.

The leader of the scientific expedition team was a middle-aged man in his 40s. Seeing that the team was getting longer and longer, and knowing that the team members were exhausted, he finally ordered to start repairing on the spot.

Five or six team members who were obviously a group gathered together. They took out various rock or mineral specimens collected along the way, and discussed while resting.The remaining seven or eight people are another group. They did not get together, but really rested in place, without affecting each other.

Mr. Zhai has become accustomed to their performance, and the reason for this situation is precisely because this scientific expedition team is composed of personnel from two provinces.

Those team members who are discussing are from Guizhou Province, while the other group are from Nanyun Province.Originally, this scientific expedition was undertaken by Nanyun Province alone, but it happened that Guizhou Province got the news, and most of the Hundred Thousand Mountains are located in Qiangui Province, so they finally merged into a team after being matched by relevant departments.

The leader of the team was not a professional geological prospector, but a person with an official background. In order to have a good political performance, this scientific expedition hardly delayed any time, which made all the team members miserable.

The mission of the scientific expedition in Qiangui Province was to investigate the geological structure of some areas of the Shiwanda Mountain and the direction of some mineral veins. They have quickly launched an investigation since they entered the deep mountain, and it can be seen from the things they collected.

As for the Nanyun Provincial Scientific Expedition Team, they have a clear destination, but the destination is a bit far away and requires professionals to lead them, so they hired Mr. Zhai.They did not specify the mission of the scientific expedition. The people in Guizhou and Guizhou provinces did not ask again after asking once but did not get a reply. Therefore, their performance was a bit abnormal compared to professional geologists.

There is also a captain in the team in Nanyun Province, who is the deputy leader of the entire scientific expedition team, but he doesn't care much about the affairs of Qiangui Province, and the real leader of the team looks like the captain of Qiangui Province.

At this moment, the captain of Nanyun Province was watching carefully with a map, and after listening to the discussion of the team members from Guizhou and Guizhou Province for a while, the team leader came and sat down beside Lao Zhai.

"Old Zhai, I don't know how long it will take to reach the destination? We have already entered dozens of miles, and I am afraid it will be dangerous to go further in! I heard that there is a Jedi in the mountains, and people and animals can't get close. Once it goes too deep, If something happens, we can’t afford it.”

The leader of the team was Shen Qiu, a local, so he had heard some rumors about Shiwan Dashan, so he asked Elder Zhai with a sad face.

Mr. Zhai's expression was indifferent, and he took a sip of the tea in the kettle and replied: "Director Shen, I have never been to the location Yan Ping pointed to, and I don't know when I will be there. But according to my experience, the most It will be late in the afternoon, if there is a delay on the road, it may be delayed until evening."

Old Zhai didn't mention the matter of Jedi, otherwise it would be more likely to cause panic.And the Yan Ping he was talking about was the captain of the Nanyun Provincial Scientific Expedition Team, and the destination this time was also proposed by Yan Ping.It's just that Mr. Zhai hasn't been there before, so it's not easy to jump to judgment.

Hearing old Zhai's ambiguous words.Shen Qiu was obviously displeased, but he had no choice but to ask patiently: "Old Zhai, you are an old expert in the mountains, and Yan Ping has drawn the map, can you find a shortcut to drive away?" past?"

Mr. Zhai glanced at Shen Qiu squintingly, and said expressionlessly: "Director Shen, you should have heard about the accidents of the scientific expedition team in the mountains a few years ago. This is not another place. If I can take a shortcut, I will I have already brought everyone there. The further we go in, the more complicated the terrain and the more emergencies we face, I don’t want to put everyone in danger just to save time.”

Mr. Zhai had heard of Shen Qiu's reputation, and it seemed that he was not good in the local area. The reason why he agreed to lead the team into the mountain was that he didn't want to offend Shen Qiu face to face, and on the other hand, it was because the scientific expedition was mainly conducted by Nanyun Province. Responsible, Yan Ping also privately revealed to him the importance of scientific research tasks.

What Shen Qiu cared about was political achievements, so he deliberately got close to the people in Guizhou and Guizhou provinces after seeing something they had gained, while Yanping in Nanyun province had not only gained nothing so far, even the destination was unknown, No wonder Shen Qiu ignored Yan Ping and others.

Old Zhai's words obviously meant something, and Shen Qiu's face became even more gloomy.He resisted and chatted with Mr. Zhai for a few more words, and left with an excuse to go to the side to have a rest.At this time, Yan Ping, who had been studying the map, came over.

"Old Zhai, according to your estimation, how long will it take for us to reach our destination?" Yan Ping was also a little anxious.

Mr. Zhai did not reply directly, but first spread out the map in Yanping's hand, looked at it for a while, and then said: "Yanping, the location you are referring to should be a low-lying place from the map, according to my experience , there is very likely to be a tiankeng. We have to rush over from here, and we have to climb two mountains in the middle, so if we are faster, we can arrive in a few hours."

"but······"

Speaking of this, Old Zhai looked a little dignified, as if he had something to say but didn't know how to say it.

Yan Ping sensed Mr. Zhai's abnormality, and hurriedly asked: "Old Zhai, but what?"

Old Zhai looked at the map carefully before he said, "But I think your map is a bit abnormal, it seems to be inconsistent with some places on the road!"

The map is not a regular topographic map, it seems to be made of animal skin, and it looks like it has been around for some years.There are undulating curves and some blocks of different colors drawn on it, just like the topographic map in a geography book.

Hearing Mr. Zhai's question, Yan Ping was obviously taken aback, but soon he came back to his senses, looked left and right secretly, and found that no one was paying attention here, so he said softly: "Old Zhai, this map is not the original map. The map was found from a senior who once went to the destination and found something useful to the country, so we are willing to venture into the deep mountains. You don't have to worry about the authenticity of the map, as long as you bring We'll just find that crater."

In order to dispel Mr. Zhai's doubts, Yan Ping whispered something about that senior. Only now did Mr. Zhai understand that their destination was indeed a tiankeng, and it was a very unique existence.

"Yanping, let me tell you the truth. There are many so-called Jedi deep in the Shiwan Dashan, and there are great dangers inside. The tiankeng you mentioned is also a Jedi! If that is the case, I advise you not to take risks and go back. That's good." Zhai Lao persuaded.

"Mr. Zhai, don't worry! Due to the rules, I can't tell you what's special about that place, but I can tell you that it's not a Jedi, because there are many wild animals there, and we won't be in danger if we go in there. " Yan Ping said with certainty.
