Chapter 36: The Cliff
After the two disappeared from sight, I felt that the temperature on the edge of the cliff was about five or six degrees lower than when we came out of the wine cellar.
I pulled Master Dong's backpack and took out the cold-proof clothes that the weirdo said-
As expected, it was the red and black suit that was distorted with severe color and slightly opened the line...
I smiled and wrapped my clothes. My trembling situation improved a lot at once. Master Dong kept staring at two ropes tied to the big tree and kept sliding down. Five minutes passed, and everything went smoothly.
I forced myself to wait patiently for a while. In fact, the objects I was waiting for were in front of and behind the cliff. I was still hoping that the disappearing little prince would suddenly pop out from the bushes!
The rock was so huge that the figures of the three little princes were hidden behind us, so we couldn't see them. What did he encounter in those few minutes?
My feelings tell me that this must have something to do with the letters engraved on Shanyan!
It was not so coincidental that something he was studying all the way suddenly appeared in front of him, saying that his disappearance had nothing to do with it, and I don’t believe it!
Why does the strange abbreviation appear here?
First of all, the micro camera and parchment notes come from the small box; the small box comes from the Red Cross suitcase; the Red Cross suitcase comes from a World War II expedition team that once broke into.
Those people are foreigners, so what Professor Hu and the big stars deciphered are bird songs that we can't understand. I can completely understand this. But this inscription with bird songs will appear in an ancient mountain in China, which is a bit strange.
Before, we have already guessed that the expedition team that left the Red Cross suitcase was not accidentally entered because of war. Because they had a diamond ring specially cut ice version in their box, and there were team doctors in their medical kits, and Naprofen, which can save lives in the Arctic, must have had some understanding of the situation in the Arctic before entering. They should have deliberately entered the icebergs under the sea in order to obtain more accurate information.
What we can learn at present is that the contents in the small box have been related to the secrets of the North Pole from the beginning. When we left the ocean, we found a clue on the ice coffin pointing to the Yuling of the Si family.
Immediately afterwards, on the east of Kuaiji Mountain, guarded by Dayu's descendants, a connected foothill was laid on a fierce situation pointing to the Si family. On a stone in the fierce situation, the words that appeared in the camera of the foreign expedition team were actually engraved.
The clues are connected together at first glance. At first glance, we can't find a gap to make a breakthrough, but fortunately, Jinye's high-end talents lend a helping hand.
I remember that the deciphering given by the big star's email was written like this. There were eulogies like dedication, ancestors, and a symbol or name that could not be seen clearly in the middle.
In the photo washed by Professor Hu, the symbol or name thing is composed of two parts, one of which happens to be the "circle plus two triangles" that we are all very familiar with!
If that symbol represents the Eastern Prince and Duke, and Dayu served as an agent of the Eastern Prince, then our starting point must be entered from here.
We all know that every Eastern Prince, even the agent of human beings, is to be buried in the ice coffin forest in the deep sea of the Arctic. Therefore, the thing in the photo is a stone tablet similar to a monument, which definitely does not belong to the Eastern Prince.
Then we can speculate that the stone tablet is relatively down-to-earth. It belongs to humans, and it is engraved with symbols representing the Eastern Prince, which involves the relationship between humans and gods. I was wondering whether the meaning of that inscription is about dedicating humans to gods? After all, in the eyes of some people, the Eastern Prince is a god!
Things on parchment can be written by the expedition team at any time, but can be photographed by a micro camera, which means that there is really a place with a stone tablet standing on it.
No expedition team set out with a roll of used film, so the photo in the camera was not taken in advance. The one we saw, at least they only saw it in the eyes and recorded it in the camera after they came to the Arctic.
We obviously have never seen the place where the stone tablet stands, but judging from this worship relationship that is extremely committed to the Eastern Prince and the Lord and even the soul after death, I always feel that the stone tablet should belong to the Ari tribe in the Arctic.
The little prince explained to me specifically that the difference between the so-called monuments and graves is that one is similar to a tomb, where there is no dead people buried underground, while the other is a real corpse hidden below.
We have no way of knowing where the Ari tribe will be buried after death, but the gang of wizards and supervisors living underground in their tribe were pushed down from the melting glacier after they had been faked to die, and they were about to enter the caves of the forbidden area and frozen.
Perhaps the inscription means to dedicate the lives of the wizards to the gods - ** to work, and their souls must also belong to the Eastern Prince. This is the strange and persistent thoughts in the minds of the Ari people.
I think my idea is quite reliable. The little prince and we have experienced the separation of life and death, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness in the North Pole. What I can think of is his hairless head.
When he stood behind Shanyan, he saw a monument of the Ari tribe wizard appearing in a fierce battle with Qinglong Cunhua. Of course, he was very surprised. Perhaps so surprised that he forgot the existence of his teammates. He ran back to Yu Village at the foot of the mountain to find Qingmei to ask Sister Qingmei for a mobile phone to report the message to the big star... I can only comfort myself like this.
It should be said that the letters on the mountain rock exist because a person who has been to the North Pole and understands the relationship between the Ari tribe wizard and the Dongwanggong also came to the top of Xunshan like us. In other words, it was simply that an Ari tribe who personally left his hometown of the North Pole and came to the mysterious Kuaiji Mountains in China.
Although the distance is so far, this is not an impossible thing. Four thousand years ago, Dayu hiked to Zhongbei while measuring the world, and then left a map of ice coffin there before returning. Now, there are cars, boats and planes, why can't he travel from the Arctic to China?
I am not an expert who can distinguish the old and new traces, and I have no idea how to determine which period the traces on the rocks were formed.
With a "slam", a small piece of gravel was kicked away by Master Dong. I came to my senses and saw him standing up from the squatting beside him and staring at the ropes. He turned on the flashlight and shone it under the cliff.
However, his illumination method was very strange. He pressed and held the strong and weak light on the switch and the closing button, and kept flashing. I knew that it was a lantern that I couldn't understand, and he was communicating with his teammates below.
I turned forward strangely. Seeing that Master Dong looked a little nervous, he waited for a while before putting down the flashlight and said, "The rope has not moved anymore. I still feel that it has fallen to the end. I have been waiting for them to untied the rope to signal us, but why are they still still now?"
I gently stroked my right eyelid, and I felt so impatient that I ignored anything. I cleared my throat and shouted down:
"Brother Dao, Brother Mouse, are you all okay?"
The silent mountain was suddenly broken by my shouts, and my voice was transmitted to the cliff below, becoming extremely loud, and I kept repeating "How are you okay - How are you okay -" for me, and all the birds on the trees next to me flew up.
I was a little cautious when I heard my constant circling sound. By the same token, if it were a monster and mouse on the cliff, any movement they had to emit would form a huge echo to pass up! So no matter what they were doing, just yell, which would make us sure that they were still below. However, the current situation is really like the "stagnant" that Master Dong said, and there was no movement at all!
My heart sank: It's coming again, and it's gone again, like a little prince evaporating silently.
"Oh, it's really a hell!"
Master Dong kicked the big tree next to him hard, opened the package and started tying a rope to his waist:
"Little sister, I'll go down. You can wait for yourself first. Don't run around before dawn."
As soon as I heard that he was leaving, I immediately became scared: "No, what if you can't come back?"
As soon as I finished speaking, I quickly woke up and spit hard on the ground: "Bao, bah, I'm a crow-mouthed crow-mouthed, I don't keep my word! Of course, you won't be able to come back long, so they are both. They must be safe and sound below, but... but leave me here and you can't take me down together!"
Master Dong shook his head. I knew he always wanted to avoid all members being in danger. He frowned very tightly, and he didn't dare to assure me at this time. He touched my head as usual and encouraged him: "Be independent youngest girl, you are already Jinye's intern. You must be decisive when you should make some decisions, and you must be brave when you should face them. You are different from the high school student two years ago. Now you are an adult and a formal team member."
I felt the rough and thick warmth coming from his palm, and I felt so ashamed and impatient. I knew that I was weak in the team and was too clingy, but... but I was really afraid of this mountain!
I nodded and took two steps back, leaving him room for activity. I wrapped myself in the weirdo's windbreaker, covered my chest with my hands folded together, and silently prayed that I must not have anything wrong, and I must not have something wrong.
Master Dong started to test the descent device skillfully and carefully, and he stretched half of his body out of the cliff.
"It's too late to teach you the lights. Simply put, our team uses Moss codes. Whether it's tapping or using flashlights, you must know something." He was about to go down, and suddenly stopped the movements in his hand, raised his head and quickly instilled knowledge in me, "Like binary, Moss codes are written in two types: horizontal straight lines and small dots. The horizontal lines are 'tick' and the dots are 'tick'. Using flashlights means strong and weak. If you see me emit such lights later-"
He said, flashing nine flashes quickly, and there seemed to be a few seconds between each three, which made me dazzled!
"This signal is 'sos', Didi, Tada, Didi, Didi, the easiest and easiest to operate. If you see this, you must never follow me, remember!"
I didn't even have the chance to follow and Master Dong started to release the rope in his hand. I felt that I was so careless. As early as when we first entered the Overlord Treasure, I saw the weird guy and Brother Eye used the rhythmic method of hitting the stone walls and communicating with each other when they couldn't make a sound. This should be a very useful survival skill. Why didn't I remember to learn it? I just crammed at this critical moment!
