Tomb Raiders: Start Yunnan Insect Valley with Golden Silkworm Gu

　　"Leave Xu Lang."

　　Xu Lang took a look and saw that the driver had already checked the car, and there was no problem, and he was ready to go.

　　After getting in the car, the car became more lively.

　　Because of what happened just now, the passengers who were still relatively unfamiliar were talking about it.

　　Soon, the words of a tea dealer sitting next to Fatty Hu Pa Yi caught Xu Lang's attention.

　　"Those stone figurines are quite numerous in this mountain. I have seen them before when I was collecting tea."

　　Lao Hu asked curiously, "What are those stone figurines? Why are there bugs in them?"

　　The tea dealer said, "I heard from the locals that these figurines are all human-shaped coffins. Sometimes they will be washed down by landslides, and if they are broken, there will be fat maggots inside."

　　"A human-shaped coffin? I don't know if there is a bright tool... Is there something good in the coffin?" Fatty Wang also slowed down at this moment, and his eyes lit up when he heard the word "coffin".

　　"There's no such thing as a good thing. The local mountain residents hide away when they encounter these ghosts. They say it's unlucky and will make people sick and unlucky."

　　While talking, the tea seller muttered about where to ask for a peace talisman.

　　After muttering a few words, the tea seller asked a few people where to go.

　　Xu Lang smiled, "We are teachers and students of Agricultural University, and we plan to go to Zhelong Mountain near the Snake River to catch butterflies and insects for research."

　　"By the way, brother, do you know how to get to Zhelong Mountain?"

　　Although Xu Lang knew the general direction of Insect Valley, he still had to inquire about the specific route.

　　When the tea dealer heard that Xu Lang and several others were teachers and students of the university, he was immediately in awe.

　　"Oh, it's amazing. It turned out to be a scholar. I'm disrespectful. Zhalong Mountain is not far away. It's just after the bend of the mountain. It happens that I'm going there to collect tea. You can get off the bus with me when the time comes."

　　Hu Payi, Shirley, and Fatty Yang Wang were all listening by the side.

　　Hearing Xu Lang's words, he fooled the tea seller and took the initiative to show the way, so he couldn't help giving Xu Lang a thumbs up.

　　The driver behind the journey became less courageous and drove slowly.

　　After about an hour, the car stopped.

　　The tea seller greeted Xu Lang and the others to get out of the car quickly.

　　"To go to Zhelong Mountain, take the short road from this intersection."

　　The tea seller was quite enthusiastic and pointed to a small fork in the road ahead.

　　Apart from the tea dealer and Xu Lang, there were three others who got off the bus together.

　　One is a local woman in her thirties with a small doll in her backpack.

　　Another was a little girl of sixteen or seventeen.

　　The two of them wore local national costumes, although they were everyday styles, they could still feel the delicacy of local women.

　　Hu Payi and Fatty Wang didn't really want to go with these people.

　　Both of them were cautious, and after all, Captain Mojin wasn't very good, so he was a little worried.

　　Xu Lang said it was okay.

　　"I don't know how far I have to walk from here to Zhelong Mountain. It is safer to walk with the locals and not get lost."

　　Shirley Yang also supports Xu Lang.

　　Fatty Wang is very convinced of Xu Lang now, and naturally has no objection.

　　Several people were soon on the road together.

　　All the way is high mountains and deep valleys.

　　Although there is a path like the intestines of sheep to walk, but going around, sometimes disappearing in the grass.

　　There are forks in some places.

　　Fortunately, it is with the locals, otherwise, you might get lost.

　　After walking for more than two hours, in the afternoon, the group came to the foot of Zhelong Mountain.

　　Xu Lang and several people helped the two local women carry a lot of things along the way.

　　When they got to the foot of the mountain, Hu Payi and other talents discovered that these two local women were the owners of the only inn at the foot of Zhelong Mountain, "Caiyun Inn".

　　Xu Lang and his party stayed at Caiyun Inn for the night.

　　Hu Payi and the others chatted with the proprietress.

　　He soon learned that the proprietress was a widow and her husband died in the southern border.

　　The little girl is the daughter-in-law of the proprietress, a Han Chinese, and her name is Peacock.

　　Xu Lang didn't say much, just listened, until he matched up with all the plots in his memory, and then he relaxed.

　　Because a few people helped the proprietress move things along the way, the proprietress and the peacock were very enthusiastic.

　　It is making tea and making bacon rice.

　　Xu Lang and the others could finally take a good rest and relieve the fatigue of the journey.

　　After eating the fragrant bacon rice, Xu Lang drank the tea brought by the peacock and walked out of the inn.

　　Outside the inn, you can clearly see the true face of Zhelong Mountain.

　　A towering mountain.

　　There is snow on the top of the mountain.

　　There was a cloud of white gauze on the mountainside.

　　Further down is the dense jungle.

　　At this time, the peacock came over curiously.

　　"Brother Xu Lang, are you going to climb Zhalong Mountain?"

　　Xu Lang smiled, "Yeah, we're going to go over Zhalong Mountain to catch butterflies and insects."

　　When the peacock heard it, his head shook like a rattle.

　　"Don't go there, everyone who went to Zhalong Mountain is dead! There are ghosts on Zhalong Mountain!".

Chapter 4

　　"All dead?" Hu Payi's voice came from behind.

　　Lao Hu has also finished eating, and is coming out with a telescope at the moment, and he also wants to take a closer look at the situation of Zhelong Mountain.

　　Peacock girl nodded.

　　"All of us who have been to Zhelong Mountain are dead. It is said that there are man-eating ghosts on the mountain, but now no one dares to go up the mountain."

　　Then Xu Lang took the peacock sister back to the inn together, and called Fatty Wang and Chief of Staff Yang over.

　　According to the proprietress and the peacock, the ghosts on Zhalong Mountain are so fierce that no one dares to go up, and no one knows the way now.

　　People who have been to Zhalong Mountain have either died of old age or died unexpectedly, and there is not one left.

　　If you want to go over the mountain, it is basically impossible.

　　Hu Payi, Xue Li Yang, and Fatty Wang all frowned after hearing this.

　　Before coming to Yunnan, several people had carefully studied Chen Blind's human skin map.

　　According to the markings on the human skin map, there are only two ways to enter the Worm Valley.

　　One is along a river called Snake River, bypassing Zhelong Mountain.

　　The biggest problem with this road is that the road is too long, and it is not easy to walk.

　　As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse.

　　Zhelong Mountain is not a small hill, at least one or two hundred kilometers around it.

　　In addition, this area is all deep mountains, canyons, and virgin forests.

　　If you want to bypass it, it will take a month or two less.

　　This road is definitely not feasible, and the supply along the way is not enough for a small team of four people.

　　Originally, the route chosen by Hu Payi and others was to directly climb Zhelong Mountain, which is nearly [-] meters above sea level.

　　On the human skin map, there is a tuyere in Zhelong Mountain. As long as you pass through it, you can directly reach the Insect Valley.

　　Now it seems that there is no way to go over the road of Zhelong Mountain.

　　Without a guide, it is difficult for a few people to climb the mountain that spans the tropical virgin jungle to the snow-capped mountains.

　　Haunted or not, it's not a big problem.

　　Hu Payi and Shirley Yang frowned.

　　Fatty Wang looked at Xu Lang's face without a worried look, and moved closer to him.

　　"Lord Lang, tell me, is there any other way?"

　　Xu Lang grinned.

　　"Well, let me think about it. It's up to the peacock girl."

　　After Xu Lang finished speaking, the eyes of several people focused on the peacock girl.

　　The peacock girl was slightly taken aback.

　　Xu Lang immediately handed over a piece of torn chocolate.

　　"Peacock, think about it carefully, is there any other shortcut?"

　　The peacock that was fed by Xu Lang took a small mouthful of chocolate, and his eyes lit up.

　　"By the way, there really is a shortcut. You can go through the tunnel."

　　"Tunnel?" Hu Payi Xue Li Yang asked curiously.

　　Peacock flashed his big eyes and nodded, "Yes, there is a tunnel under Zhalong Mountain. There is a waterway in the tunnel, and bamboo rafts can be put through Zhalong Mountain."
