Looking from Murong Yao and the others 'side, the cliff in the distance was like a club. This was a lone peak. The two sides of the club mountain were not close to the other mountains. They were all cliffs that went straight up and down. The cliff below shrank inward. From afar, it looked like a huge club standing upright. As it was quite far away, everyone could not see it very clearly. As they walked over, Zhai Qicheng introduced them along the way."This mountain isn't very tall, only about a hundred meters. The top of the mountain is lush and green, and the dense trees are all tea trees. The Rebirth Valley was right in front of them. A large amount of water vapor gushed out of the valley to moisten the mountain. The tea on it was all top-notch tea. For many years, no one had been able to go up and pick it. They could only sigh at the sight of the tea!”
Everyone was commenting on the precipitous terrain of the mountain when Murong Yao suddenly asked a question,""Uncle Zhai, the Rebirth Valley you mentioned just now, is it the forbidden land you mentioned yesterday?”
Zhai Qicheng was stunned. He had accidentally let the cat out of the bag and it was too late to make up for it. He said," I didn't want you to know because I was afraid that you would take risks. For many years, everyone who went in died. The meaning of the Rebirth Valley is that once you go in, you can forget about coming out. You can directly reincarnate!”
"How big is it inside?"
"I haven't been there either, but looking at the outside, the Rebirth Valley isn't very big. It's called the Rebirth Valley, but it's actually not a valley. It's a valley with a radius of about 20 to 30 miles. Looking into the valley from the entrance, one could see that there was often water vapor gathering inside. Dark clouds covered the area, and muffled thunder could be heard. The most fatal thing was this thunder. When it struck, the sound and range were not large. There was no place to hide in this valley. Anyone who entered would be struck to death by the thunder!”
"Could it be that he didn't come out alive?"
"I've never heard of it!"
While they were talking, Bangchui Mountain was getting closer. When they got closer, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. The entire mountain peak was about 120 to 130 feet away from the foot of the mountain. It was dented as if it had been cut by a knife. The most severe part was about five to six feet deep, and the shallowest part was about two feet deep. It was more than a hundred feet high, and even an extended ladder couldn't reach it. There was still a cliff above. Only birds could go up. Everyone followed the foot of the mountain for a while. The general situation was similar. There was no place to climb. Wei Wuji said that it seemed that the tea leaves here could only be seen but not drunk. Murong Yao observed carefully for a while and asked Zhai Qicheng,""Uncle Zhai, do you think that the monkey is unwilling to go up? Is it because of the pit at that place that is more than 100 feet high?”
Zhai Qicheng nodded affirmatively.
"If we cross this hurdle, will the monkey be able to climb up?”
Zhai Qicheng nodded again.
"If I can climb to that position and put down the rope, can the little monkey climb up along the rope?”
"Little monkeys can climb ropes, but how can humans climb to that place?”
"How would we know if we don't try?" Murong Yao said.”After saying that, he carefully looked at the direction of the cliff. Finally, he pointed at a place and said,"Here!"”
The protruding part of this place was slightly shallow, but it was still two feet high. The height was slightly lower, about seven to eight feet, but it was not considered low, about 20 meters.
"Do you want to die? How can people climb in this place?"
"Uncle Zhai, since I dare to say it, I have a certain degree of confidence!" Murong Yao smiled and said. I brought a rope, about 25 meters long, it should be enough!”
Murong Yao carefully looked at the climbing route and the possible marks on it before he tied the rope tightly around his body. From the rock climbing equipment that he had brought, he picked out a few things and tied them around his waist. Under everyone's worried gazes, Murong Yao began to climb. He climbed very slowly and observed carefully as he climbed. Finally, he climbed to the top of the rock cliff. There was a two-foot-wide protruding part above. Murong Yao found a place where he could use his feet to exert strength and nailed two chisel pieces into the stone crack to hang the safety rope. Murong Yao had already seen a stone crack on the outer edge of the stone eaves. Using his feet to support his body, he stretched out his hand and hooked it into the stone crack outside. He tried it and felt that it was very firm, so his entire body swung out. This action shocked the people watching below! Zhai Qicheng had already rushed to the bottom. If Murong Yao made a mistake, he would be prepared to catch him from below. Niu Zheng and Wei Wuji felt that this scene was very similar to the last time when they were on the martial arts field. However, this time, it was even more dangerous. When they saw Zhai Qicheng acting like he wanted to save them, they went forward to drag Zhai Qicheng back and told him that Murong Yao's fingers had a very powerful martial arts skill. He could firmly grasp the cracks in the rocks. Unless the rocks shattered, there would be no accidents. Moreover, he had a safety rope hanging on his body just now. Even if you fall, Murong Yao has the ability to protect himself. If you go to catch him now, it will be easy for both sides to suffer. Murong Yao steadied his body and turned his body in the air like last time. His face was facing out and hanging below Shi Yan. It took him some time to adjust. Just as everyone was worried about him, there was another scream. Murong Yao did another pull-up, just like a horizontal bar. His lower body flipped high up the cliff. There was a pine tree as thick as his forearm on the cliff. Murong Yao had already seen it when he was preparing to climb down. His legs tightly clamped the trunk of the pine tree. After confirming that the pine tree was very firm and stable. He released his hands and used the strength of his waist to do a sit-up. He grabbed the pine tree with his backhand and jumped up smoothly. At this point, Murong Yao had completed the most thrilling part of the process. The people watching below heaved a sigh of relief. After resting for a while, Murong Yao untied the rope on his body. One end was tied to the pine tree, and the other end was lowered. Six cloth bags were hung up. After that, the little monkey also slipped up along the rope. The monkey was obviously trained. It climbed in front of Murong Yao, grabbed three cloth bags, and strung them up. The entire mountain was only more than a hundred meters tall. In a few steps, the little monkey climbed to the top of the mountain. Every time he filled a cloth bag with tea leaves, the monkey would push the tea bags down the mountain. After the three bags were filled, the little monkey came down again and took the other three bags. The whole process of picking tea leaves was very smooth. When Murong Yao and the little monkey slid down the rope smoothly, Murong Yao took back the safety rope that he had just hung. There were six bags of freshly picked tea leaves in front of him. Zhai Qicheng felt like he was dreaming."Murong Yao, are you a human or a monkey?"
"Of course I'm a human. The difference between humans and monkeys is that humans can use their brains and think. Monkeys will retreat when they encounter difficulties, while humans will consider how to solve problems. There are still a lot of tea leaves on the mountain. Fortunately, I can't bring the rope with me. When you have time, you can bring Monkey to continue picking. Uncle Zhai, you have to give me some good tea leaves when we leave this time!”
"Of course! Enough! Uncle Zhai had a feast for his eyes today. He did not expect that he could climb the mountain like this!”Kong Erzhu and Liu Tiqiang were both from the mountains. When they saw Murong Yao's ultimate skill, they both looked at him with respect.
No one had expected that the supposed arduous task of picking tea leaves would actually come so easily. There was still a lot of time left. Everyone focused on hunting for the rest of the time. The weather had turned cold, and big animals were rarely seen. Only small animals such as rabbits and pheasants could be seen in the ravine. These small animals ran very fast, and the hunters in the mountains could not shoot them in time. Zhai Qicheng had brought them here to play, so of course, he left the hunting opportunity to the three of them. Wei Wuji felt that the beads in his hands were not cheap, so he could not bear to shoot them randomly. Only Niu Zheng and Murong Yao were left to perform. Niu Zheng used the darts that he had brought, and Murong Yao casually grabbed a handful of stones. After a while, the two of them began to reap rewards. The stones in Murong Yao's hands did not cost anything, so of course, he shot them quickly and urgently. He harvested the most. There were three rabbits and two pheasants. Niu Zheng had one rabbit and one pheasant each. Seeing that it was still early, Murong Yao suddenly made a request to Zhai Qicheng.""Uncle Zhai, can we go to the Rebirth Valley to take a look? It's just outside the mountain pass. We won't go in.”
Zhai Qicheng knew that he had no choice but to agree. Murong Yao was a cultured and rational person. He would not risk his life. For example, Niu Zheng and Wei Wuji told him that Murong Yao was actually confident and had the corresponding preventive measures. He was not blindly taking risks. If he didn't bring them along, they would be able to find the Rebirth Valley on their own. After receiving Murong Yao's repeated assurance, Zhai Qicheng brought them on another path.
Along the way, Zhai Qicheng told them that the Rebirth Valley was surrounded by mountains and cliffs. There were not many ways to enter, and the turn back path was the easiest to find. As for the other paths, only people occasionally broke in, and those who did did not come out, so few people knew about them. It was only about four or five miles from Huitouping to the mountain pass. Because they knew it was dangerous, the villagers did not go in that direction.
"We're here!" Zhai Qicheng stopped in his tracks from afar and pointed in the direction of the mountain pass.
"It's too far. I can't see clearly. Can you move forward a little more?”
"Do not enter that mountain pass!"
The group of people carefully approached the mountain pass. The damp atmosphere became stronger and stronger, and the wind blew out from inside.
"We can't go any further!" Zhai Qicheng said.
There were clouds in the Rebirth Valley. The clouds were very low, and the upper layer of the clouds was shaped like a steamed bun. Murong Yao knew that it should be a cumulonimbus cloud. The cumulonimbus cloud was charged, and its lower layer was negatively charged. As long as the conditions were right, it would produce lightning and then a thunderstorm. In the 18th century, American scientists Benjamin and Franklin took the risk of flying a kite under a cumulonimbus cloud in order to explore the truth of lightning. They got the feeling of electric numbness on the kite string. This was a very dangerous experiment. He was lucky not to be struck by lightning and obtained the results of the experiment. Later on, someone wanted to repeat his experiment, but they were all killed by lightning. The situation in front of him was almost exactly the same as what was described in the textbooks. However, the clouds were lower from the ground, so the possibility of lightning was higher.
"What's that?" Niu Zheng pointed in the direction of the ditch.
A wild rabbit was running desperately in the ditch. It seemed to have sensed danger. A bolt of lightning struck it accurately. With the sound of thunder, a ball of fire surrounded the wild rabbit and it was killed on the spot.
Murong Yao realized that the lightning strike's range was very small. The lightning's target was the running wild rabbit. The sound of thunder was low and dull, and it did not travel far. Because the clouds were below the mountain, if one was further away, they would not know that lightning and thunderstorms had happened.
Murong Yao said to Zhai Qicheng,"You said that this place is a forbidden land. Will everyone who goes in be struck by lightning?"?”
Zhai Qicheng nodded.
Murong Yao was silent. This was a very strange phenomenon. If it was just cumulonimbus clouds, why did they only circle around the Rebirth Valley? The height of the clouds seemed to be very low. The energy consumed by each lightning bolt was not large, and it could be stored until the next time it would unleash its power. Why didn't the surrounding trees and other high points thunder and only attack people and animals?
There was one more thing that Murong Yao felt was very strange. In the future, this place was the Jiuhua Mountain scenic tourist area. Although it was not the core tourist area, it was still part of the Jiuhua Mountain tourist area. He was also a fan of outdoor sports, but he had never heard of such a mysterious valley here. It seemed that even though the historical geography was the same after the time and space were shifted, there were still some differences. It was like there was never Nanjing National University in the future.
Murong Yao was extremely interested in the unknown and mystery. On the way back, he remained silent.
