Chapter 134 The World Behind the Mountain

Hong Yang was not too polite, and simply accepted it. He really wanted to exchange this thing for money.If others don't tell you, the Ren family will probably be very interested in this chela bead, and they will definitely be willing to pay a high price for it.

Of course someone saw Xu Shan collecting the chela beads, but they didn't know the details and didn't take it seriously.Hong Yang and Xu Shan would not tell the truth now, although even if they made it clear that Xu Shan was the only one who was qualified to allocate, there was no guarantee that someone would have some strange thoughts, one more thing is worse than one less thing.

It didn't take long for the army of sand claws to withdraw completely, and there was no more sand claws within sight of everyone, so they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, Xu Shan and Hong Yang made great contributions to surviving the attack of the claws.If Hong Yang hadn't used his murderous aura to intimidate him, if Xu Shan hadn't singled out the king of sand claws, the result is really a matter of debate.Especially Xu Shan has gained everyone's absolute trust, so everyone looks to Xu Shan, because the next problem is to continue or give up.

To move forward, or to retreat?
Taking stock of the previous losses, most of the camels died, but a lot of water and food were robbed because they prepared a lot of concentrated and small volume.And because some companions died, if the food and water are only used to ensure life, it is no problem to persist for a month and a half.In other words, they can still try to move forward for half a month.

Of course, this is just a conservative estimate. After all, no one knows what dangers lie ahead and what accidents will happen, such as this time.So many people tend to go home, they think it should not be too risky.

"I really don't understand, what is there to hesitate about? Of course I want to go back!"

The only remaining master of the Bai family couldn't help being furious when he saw someone propose to move on.He didn't want to come this time, it's just that it's the family's decision and he can't go against it, but for him, safety is the first priority, and he doesn't have any adventurous spirit.

"Look, this time we almost wiped out our entire army. Who knows what will happen if we continue? Don't forget, how many people entered this desert like us, and they all died in the end. Why do you think we can go smoothly?"

"We have a map." Hong Yang looked at him and said.

The master of the Bai family was stunned for a moment, and said disapprovingly: "So what if there is a map? This map only has a rough orientation, no scale, and no markings. The ghost knows how far it will take."

The master of the Bai family is right, the map is indeed simpler.But even so, the value of the map is immeasurable, at least they will not get lost because they go deep into the desert.The guide who died before was already the best guide that could be found, and the farthest he had reached was Mount Hasano. Almost no one had ever reached the distance after that, and perhaps he would never go back after arriving.

The danger in the desert is very sudden, and sandstorms are relatively frequent. Hong Yang and the others have encountered sandstorms several times before, but they survived safely under the guidance of experienced guides, without any loss.After that, without a guide, the danger will increase a lot.

"Since you want to go back, then you can go back, and we won't stop you."

Ren Feixiang, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. In fact, he was the leading figure of this team, but Xu Shan's light was too dazzling, reflecting Ren Feixiang too ordinary.

When Ren Feixiang opened his mouth, the masters of the Ren family who supported the return journey all kept silent. For them, Ren Feixiang's words were orders, and if they said they were going forward, they had to go forward.

The master of the Bai family curled his lips. He wanted to go back alone, but is it possible?This action was jointly initiated by the Bai family and the Ren family. Now he is the only one left in the Bai family. If he goes back, if the Ren family really finds the treasure, the distribution issue will probably be put on the table again. And the Bai family has no reason to stand firm.At that time, he, a fleeing person, will bear the wrath of the Bai family, and death is inevitable.

So even if he wants to go back, he can't go back alone, everyone must go back together.Otherwise, why did he talk so much nonsense before, just turn around and leave.At this moment, Ren Feixiang's attitude was obviously to move on, he couldn't help cursing inwardly, but there was nothing he could do.

Although he was scolding in his heart, he said on his mouth: "Since we are companions, we must advance and retreat together."

Ren Feixiang nodded, then ignored him, turned to look at Hong Yang and Xu Shan and said, "You don't plan to go back, do you?"

Hong Yang smiled and said: "I don't care, but I still want to look ahead and make plans if the situation is not good."

Xu Shan hummed lightly, expressing that she and Hong Yang had the same meaning.

"In this case, everyone agrees." Ren Feixiang chuckled and waved his hand: "Go on!"

Although the sand claws in the sand dunes have all evacuated, the quicksand is still there, and the speed of everyone walking can't be increased much. The main reason is that the camels dragged their legs, otherwise the forward speed would be much faster than now.

But one thing that makes people happy is that this dune does not take a day to travel as the guide said, because they walked across the dunes in less than half a day and could see Mount Hasano.

Sand dunes are formed by quicksand, and quicksand is formed by sand claws. It is no longer the same now as it was decades ago. It is understandable that the guide made a mistake in his judgment.Before and after reaching Mount Hasano, everyone had to face another decision, whether to climb over the mountain or take a detour?

If the guide is still there, he will definitely choose to detour, but the problem is that now that the guide is gone, no one is sure that the detour will lead to the correct route, so the decision is also simple. After a little discussion, we decided to climb the mountain .

Of course, climbing mountains is a very dangerous thing, but in the desert, there are dangers everywhere, and everyone will not pay too much attention to it.The most important thing is that even if they encounter difficulties when climbing the mountain, they will not get lost. After all, they are walking in a straight line, and they can just exit when the time comes.

Mount Hasano is a rocky mountain with a very wide range, which is marked on the satellite map and almost crosses the entire desert.The detour mentioned by the guide before is not to bypass Mount Hasano directly, but to know a road inserted into the mountains.However, Mount Hasano is rarely accessible to people. There is no grass growing on the mountain, and it is very steep and rugged, which seems extremely difficult to climb.

Of course, all the people present are masters. Although it is difficult to climb the mountain, it is not enough to discourage everyone.The main reason is that there are many creatures in Hasano Mountain. It is hard to say whether these creatures are willing to let them pass safely. In case of another attack like the sand claws before, it is not as easy as letting everyone in the quicksand on the mountain. .

Naturally, a camel cannot be turned over, but it cannot be discarded, and can only be carried by manpower.Speaking of which, the camels along the way only gave them some convenience at the beginning, and the more they walked back, the camels almost became a burden, and this is even more so now. If they didn't consider that they would still be useful later, everyone really wanted to leave them behind. up.

A team of two is responsible for a camel, tying them with a rope, and dragging the thick objects on the bottom pad behind them. It is not too strenuous to climb.But two people can do it, one person can't, and Ren Feixiang can't do this kind of task, so in the end he gave up one camel and took four with him.

The rocky mountain is very hard, and it is impossible to be scruples about those rocky corners when climbing the mountain, so it is less than half of the climb, and the clothes on everyone's bodies are all in tatters, and they look very embarrassed.Although Hong Yang and Ren Feixiang didn't need to carry the camels, they couldn't help but Xu Shan was the most relaxed on the field. She was the only girl, so she didn't have to do those physical jobs, but her strength was all the strongest of all.

Every time Xu Shan climbs a certain distance, she will turn around and look at the sun that has run behind her head, as if she is counting the time or determining the direction.But looking at her solemn expression, this matter should be very important.

Mount Hasano is very steep and high, but because it was climbing at night, fortunately, no very aggressive creatures were found along the way, so the next morning, I finally reached the top of the mountain.

The night in the desert was terribly cold. Although everyone was an expert, they were terribly cold and exhausted physically and mentally. They fell asleep as soon as they reached the top of the mountain, and they didn't even bother to enjoy the scenery on the top of the mountain.

Apart from yellow sand in the desert, there should be no scenery to speak of, and everyone would think so.However, when Hong Yang saw the other side of the mountain, he no longer had this kind of thought.

Mount Hasano is a mountain, but it is also a mountain range. The mountain at the foot is named Mount Hasano, and this mountain range also has the same name.It is not surprising that there are many mountains in the world that have the same name as one of them.

Mount Hasano on the satellite map is a line that runs across the desert like a big snake, so in Hong Yang's view, there is a desert in front of the mountain, and the same desert behind the mountain.

But at this time, I was at a high place, looking at the back of Mount Hasano, and found that although the back of the mountain was still a desert, it was obviously different.

The world behind the mountain is full of vitality, green plants are everywhere, stretching as far as the eye can see.All kinds of weird little animals shuttled among the plants, looking so harmonious, even the weather didn't seem so cold or hot anymore.

The weather in the desert morning is naturally like this, but Hong Yang has a feeling that the world behind the mountain is different from the outside, it seems that it is not hot in the day and cold in the night, but a constant temperature in all seasons.

Although everyone was exhausted and lay down on the top of the mountain one after another, someone still noticed the scene behind the mountain, so the exclamation came one after another, spreading like an infection.

"Wow, is this a mirage?"

Everyone can't help but think this way, because the contrast between the front of the mountain and the back of the mountain is indeed a bit big, which makes people feel unreal.

"Whether it's a mirage or not, you'll know if you go down and have a look."
