Chapter Ninety-Seven: Seasons
Jihou Pass is a channel connecting the deserted garden and the Great Scattered Land. The canyons within the valley are traversed and are called Jihou Valley. The terrain is complex and the roads are rugged. Jihou Valley has been a place where the heat and cold meet since ancient times, and is also one of the harshest places in the environment. Before the construction of the gate, there were ice caves and melting streams everywhere in the valley. After the strong wind rushes into the entrance of the valley, the plains outside are sometimes cold and sometimes hot, either covered with frost or a barren scorched earth. It is because of the protection of the ancient god mulberry, the animals and plants under the shade of trees rely on to survive. However, ancient mulberry cannot protect too many creatures. However, since the completion of Jihou Pass, the ancient god mulberry and the surrounding climate have been adjusted, and creatures can reproduce and thrive. Later, the empire built Tianfu Rose here, which is the largest garden in the world and the later deserted garden.
In the beacon hall of Emperor Wang, a cup of fragrant autumn red tea was placed on the table. The empress covered her hand and drank a small mouthful. She looked at a map of unfolded sheepskin folds on the table and said, "This is the map of the road to Shufang. After reading these, you must have known how difficult the road to Shufang is."
Youyoule smacked her lips and felt very uncomfortable, saying, "The road to Shufang is indeed difficult, but I still have to go. I am for someone, and I am willing to do it no matter how dangerous the road ahead is."
The empress also tampered with the matter of Wen Xiao. She didn't want to mention it too much and said, "People cannot be resurrected, think about it carefully."
The empress stood up and left the beacon hall. Two people came to watch Youyouyou. She went to the main hall. When she came to the main hall, she hurriedly reported to the archbishop. This time, the archbishop's face became even more panicked. He came to the empress and said respectfully: "Mr. Empress, all the first teams that tracked down Chanwu and their traces were killed. Chanwu and their traces were heading towards the ancient gods. The several teams sent out in succession have not found their traces yet. I guess they want to take a closer approach, pass through Jihou Pass, and walk the road in the direction of the Great Rift."
The empress had a gloomy face and said, "Are the first team all the waste you trained?"
The Archbishop hurriedly said, "The subordinates are incompetent. The first team is indeed all elites. It is not Chanwu and the others who killed them, but a bone lizard."
The empress looked at the Archbishop and said, "Are you making excuses? Going forward, there will be more creatures like bone lizards. According to your ability, when will it take to reach the feet of the female giant beast?"
The Archbishop said submissively: "I will continue to urge you!"
The empress looked at the archbishop with contempt, and the dark and cold thorns in her eyes seemed to be about to swallow the archbishop. The archbishop was choked and there seemed to be millions of poisonous insects scratching the neck. The black thorns crawled out of his neck, covering half of his face, and almost pierced into his eyes. The archbishop was extremely frightened, but he still endured, waiting for the empress to calm his anger. The empress disappeared, and the thorns also disappeared from the archbishop.
The empress said: "This time I will punish you a little bit, but next time it will not be that simple."
The Archbishop said: "I understand. I will send hawks to track down the whereabouts of Chanwu!"
The empress instructed: "This time, you must catch them no matter what. Chan Wu left the empire and took away a top-secret scroll. You must find this scroll no matter what!"
The Archbishop said: "I will receive the order!"
The empress said again: "Send the ugly servant out too, I won't allow you to miss this time!"
The Archbishop nodded flatteredly and said, "I will do it now."
The barking of dogs was everywhere in the camp under the beacon wall. Since the Archbishop ordered, the expedition team consisted of the third and fourth teams, each assigned a hawk. These hawks were injected with directional mutation vaccines. After the mutation, their sense of smell became more sensitive and could fly low.
A man with a crooked scar at the corner of his eye was leading a hawk and strolling around the camp. The bodies of the first team were lying in several simple morgues in the camp. They were all bitten to death. The scar made the hawk smell the dead for a few times and asked, "Did you tell me?"
The hawk was spinning back and forth happily on the ground. The scabbed man knew the hawk very well. He must have distinguished the smell of other people on the deceased. These dead people undoubtedly had two smells, including the ones who tangled their bodies and bone lizards. The scabbed man obviously seemed to let the hawk remember the smell of the woolen and the other person.
The scarred man took out another handkerchief and let the hawk and dog sniff it, saying, "Remember, go find this person for me."
At this time, the fog had not completely dissipated, and a very low-pressure white sky was covered with a top of the head. Since a slight tremor on the ground, the fog has floated out.
The two captains of the expedition team led the team to set up the team in the camp gatehouse. The captain of the third team asked, "Sir, you can set off now."
The ugly servant squeezed the cracked scar at the corners of his eyes and said, "Wait a minute."
The two captains were puzzled, and the captain of the third team asked, "What are you waiting for?"
The ugly servant said, "When the fog disappears, don't you know how this fog comes?"
Everyone shook their heads and said, "I don't know."
The ugly servant said: "The plates of the Great Schizophrenia are moving. Whenever the Great Schizophrenia squeezes toward this side, the underground cracks in the Season Valley will crack and the heat and cold air will form, which will form a heavy fog. The cracks in the Season Valley will crack and close with the movement of the female beast. I think it won't take long before the cracks in the Season Valley will close and the fog will disappear."
The captain asked, "If this happens, will it take a long time to delay? Chanwu will run away further and further."
The ugly servant said, "As far as I know, the person who took Chanwu away is definitely not an ordinary person. Although the Archbishop did not mention his name to me, I think he should have a good understanding of the way to Shufang."
The captain said: "I heard that he is a businessman who often travels between Shanglan Ancient Road."
The ugly servant looked at the top of his head and said, "It's almost done now. If the fog is too strong, the dangers will increase. Now we are moving at full speed to avoid danger. It won't take long to get under the Season Pass. According to my current estimate, they should be near the Season Pass."
Jihou Pass is majestic and majestic, and is located in a dangerous place. Chengguan is built in a place where mountains are intertwined. The nearby peak links and Jihou Pass form a natural barrier. The control of Jihou Pass is also very complicated. There are not only canyon channels for adjusting the heat, heat, frost, but also tracks for transporting cargo resources. These tracks were built during the ancient empire. Although the ancient empire was advanced in technology, the political system was very backward, which was also one of the reasons for its decline.
