Chapter 8 Cao Village!

Everyone was stunned when they saw the six words "Luoyang City, by the Yellow River".

"Is this the hint given to us by the person behind us, or the hint given to us by the No. 12?" Wu Xiaojun said: "I think today's No. 12 gave his life to exchange this information!"

"Switch back?" Qian Lin suddenly smiled and said, "Why do I feel that we are completely controlled by the person behind us now? Even if we die, he sets us clearly!"

"Maybe this is not his original intention. The death of No. 12 was an accident!" Xiao Jingwen smiled bitterly: "But now, this is our only clue. Let's go to the Yellow River tomorrow!"

Wu Xiaojun nodded: "The Yellow River in Luoyang City is a bit far from the city, and that place can be said to be deserted, so we have to bring some things!" As he said that, he pulled Ge Shichao and Qian Lin and ran out!

Xiao Jingwen, Li Ting, and Guo Hui looked at each other, wondering what these people were doing.

Wu Xiaojun and the other two came back soon, each carrying a pack of things, sweating profusely: "Look, look! Fortunately, our place is close to the night market, otherwise we would have to exhaust ourselves to death!"

Xiao Jingwen opened the bag, but saw some short knives, flashlights, ropes and other things inside. She looked up at Wu Xiaojun with a sweaty face: "You are so thoughtful! In this way, we have really become tomb robbers!"

"This is called survival!" Wu Xiaojun looked serious: "Don't deceive himself. We are just going to rob the tomb this time! If we don't have these things, what should we do if we die!"

"Stinky mouth! What are you talking about!" Li Ting punched him again: "You will die by yourself, you will die by yourself!"

The two made everyone laugh. Wu Xiaojun laughed and divided the things into six parts: "Look, how suitable we bought! You may use them on your own Piaotian Silk Network tomorrow!"

Everyone took their own copy, chatted for a while, and then they all took a rest.

At six o'clock the next day, Wu Xiaojun called everyone one by one, had supper in the restaurant, rented a car, and walked towards the Yellow River outside the city.

Luoyang City is not big now. After leaving the city, you can walk northward. About twenty minutes later, you will see the winding Yellow River.

Everyone got out of the car and looked over. The Yellow River was more than a hundred meters in front of him. The ground here was almost covered with yellow soil. On the ground, some unfamous plants grew sparsely, neither high nor low, and very desolate. Looking from a distance, the water of the Yellow River was still clear, but the calmness of the surface made people think of the horror under the water.

"Is there a village here?" Wu Xiaojun glanced at the distance and turned around to ask the driver who was about to leave.

The driver was a man in his early forties: "Here, there are no villages nearby. People come from time to time, but they all come to visit, barbecue, etc.! Look at this place, it's almost endless, see where there are people! Remember my phone number, call me when you want to go back to the city, and I'll pick you up!"

Wu Xiaojun nodded, wrote down the driver's phone number, and told him to leave.

"Where are we going?" Xiao Jingwen looked at everyone and asked with a long sigh.

Wu Xiaojun glanced at the terrain: "This place looks quite flat, but I really don't know where there will be mud and sand. You must pay attention! I grew up from the riverside. If you can trust me, just listen to me!"

Everyone looked at each other, and it seemed that the others didn't understand, so they nodded and followed Wu Xiaojun to the river little by little.

"This is a great place by the river!" Qian Lin said: "Although I don't know any Feng Shui or something, I feel that this place is very suitable for tombs and other things. I don't know if there is any underground!"

"It must be!" Wu Xiaojun laughed and said, "If there is no, what will that person ask us to do!"

Everyone stopped talking and followed Wu Xiaojun to the river little by little. The land under their feet became softer and softer, making people be careful.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaojun stopped: "No, how could the terrain here look like this!"

Everyone stopped and looked up at all sides. Sure enough, the terrain here was a bit strange: from a distance, I felt that the ground was flat, but when I walked here, I found that it looked like hills, both sides began to go down, and then converged from the middle, and the altitude rose again, like sinking vortexes.

If I hadn't been here, I wouldn't have seen such a scene.

"How to go?" Guo Hui asked.

Everyone looked forward and it was a downhill. After going down, it should be on the edge of the Yellow River. Looking to both sides, there was a downward path, which was a circular shape. After a few hundred meters, it circled behind everyone. Although it seemed that it should be converging directly in front, no one knew whether he could walk out.

"If you want me to tell me, just walk a small road!" Wu Xiaojun said: "We have seen the scene by the river just now. There is nothing special. We might as well choose a small road and maybe we will find something!"

Qian Lin nodded, turned around to look at the other people, and saw that he had no objection, he replied: "Okay, let's go!"

Wu Xiaojun pointed to the path on his left: "This?"

Everyone laughed: "Follow you!"

Wu Xiaojun smiled and turned around and entered the path on his left.

This path is called a path, but it is a place without dense vegetation. It is another downhill, which looks like a path. Everyone is walking side by side, talking and laughing, but there is no feeling of pressure.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Wu Xiaojun stopped and looked back: "I really can't see where we were standing just now. It seems that our direction is not to walk to the river."

Qian Lin looked at the compass on his wrist: "Yes, now we are heading southwest."

Wu Xiaojun glanced at the distance: "How is it? Should we go back or continue walking?"

"Continue to go!" Qian Lin said: "Walking back is a waste of time. Let's continue walking forward!"

Everyone agreed, and Wu Xiaojun turned around and continued walking forward.

The road ahead was getting wider and wider. The width that could only be two people side by side, but after walking for more than half an hour, he could actually accommodate six people. And it was becoming more and more like a road, with vegetation growing on both sides and empty in the middle. It seemed that someone had walked here.

But the direction is becoming more and more incomprehensible. It is going west, southwest, northwest, and southeast... It has been more than an hour, and it is already past ten o'clock in the morning. Li Ting can't support it anymore: "I said fat man, look at you so fat, how can you walk so much! Look at the sun in the sky, it's all in the center, and I'm going to explain it here if you go on!"

Wu Xiaojun wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed: "Didn't I tell you? I grew up in a small countryside. If you don't say anything else, you have to endure hardships and strength, but I didn't say anything!"

Li Ting sat on the ground: "Take you down!" As she said that, she took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag and drank it gurgled: "You all take a break, I know you can't do it anymore!"

Xiao Jingwen also sat beside Li Ting, took out the water and took a few sips: "The terrain is flat now, and we don't know if it's in a basin. If we walk further forward, we don't know where it is!"

Wu Xiaojun sat on the ground with some difficulty: "Since you've been here, let's continue walking forward! I'm very happy. I have never had time to play like this since I graduated from work! If we write novels, do we come to find inspiration!"

"Well, this is right!" Qian Lin took out a large piece of chocolate and split it and shared it with everyone: "I hope there will be a good result!"

Everyone rested for a while, then took a look at the sun in the sky, stood up and continued walking forward.

The road ahead was getting narrower and narrower again, and there were more and more vegetation around it. By 1 pm, I almost walked into a forest.

Wu Xiaojun stopped again and turned to look at the people behind him: "I guess we are getting farther and farther away from the Yellow River now, and I don't know where it will be. Maybe it's hard to tell the direction if we go forward! I have to ask you, should we go back the same way?!"

Qian Lin looked at everyone: "I think I'd better keep moving forward. After all, it's early now. If you walk forward, you might get something!"

"I agree too!" Li Ting now had vitality, raised her hands and said happily: "Anyway, the woods are cool, so I can continue walking forward!"

Xiao Jingwen looked at the other two and smiled: "Okay, I agree, then keep going!"

Several people stopped to replenish some water and continued to walk forward.

After walking for about half an hour this time, a stone tablet suddenly appeared in front of everyone!

The stone tablet is blue, and it looks like it has been a long history. It contains two ancient Chinese characters. Although it has almost faded its color, it can still be seen clearly.

"What kind of word is this!" Xiao Jingwen also became interested: "Why do it look like traditional Chinese characters, but it can't be recognized!"

Qian Lin continued: "It should be just a person's calligraphy characteristics, so I can't recognize it. Do you know Xiaojun?"

Wu Xiaojun looked carefully: "You really asked the right person! I studied history and culture in college. This is a very unpopular calligraphy, which evolved from ancient seal script and developed for a while in the Han Dynasty. However, because this font is difficult to identify and even more difficult to learn, it was lost by the end of the Jin Dynasty!"

"No!" Li Ting exclaimed in a low voice: "As you say, this stone tablet has a history of more than a thousand years! We have discovered an antique!"

Qian Lin ignored Li Ting: "What are the two words on this?"

Wu Xiaojun looked carefully again: "If it is good, it should be 'Caocun'!"
