C2113 The Entrance to the Graveyard(1)
After passing by Fuguang Town, Fann Binn got out of the car and bought some dry food and essential outdoor daily necessities. He then drove away from Fuguang Town without stopping, heading towards the location of the Wukan Village that year.
The off-road vehicle continued moving west with bumpy roads. The distance between the two places began to get worse and worse. The bumpy road made Xiao's luxurious off-road vehicle feel a little powerless.
The Loess Plateau had already reached the border area. It was connected to the desert and desert. There were sand and dust everywhere. The misty sky and the yellow bald hillside made this place an uninhabited area.
There were no signs of human survival in this place. It could be seen that the earthquake from back then had brought a huge change to this place.
When Patriarch of Tang Sect chose the location of his tomb, this area definitely wouldn't be like this. Otherwise, no one would want to place him in this kind of desert and desolate land, right?
After driving for about half an hour or so, the road ahead had been cut off, and the off-road vehicle could no longer move forward. Fann Binn and Wu Boye got off the car, took their belongings, and continued walking forward.
The mountains here were of different heights, but there were almost no plants growing on them. Therefore, it was clear at a glance. But just by looking at it, it did not mean that overturning these mountains did not require time and energy. After climbing a few mountains along the way, Wu Boye had undoubtedly begun to pant. He sat down and rested a few times.
"Godfather, how far is this place from Wukan Village?" Fann Binn looked forward without any hesitation. After a while, he looked at the endless land in front of him. He couldn't help but ask, "Every year, you go to Wukan Village to pay your respects. Why do you have to walk so many roads?"
"It's not far. We'll arrive after crossing that mountain. It couldn't be helped if he walked too much. The conditions here were too harsh. No one wants to live here. What can we do if we don't walk? Our ancestors can't reject it! " Wu Boye said helplessly," Every year during the Qingming Festival, not only me, but many other villagers' descendants will also come to pay their respects. Back then, during the great earthquake, the Wukan Village wasn't the only place that was buried. I heard that there are five or six villages buried nearby!"
"So many..." Fann Binn nodded and said, "I'm afraid that the earthquake back then was a huge disaster."
"That's right. Originally, this place was beautiful and beautiful, but now it has become a barren land. Sigh, so many territories have been wasted just like that." Wu Boye shook his head with some regret, then stood up from the ground and said. " Let's go. We're almost at Wukan Village. We'll rest more there. We still have to walk back. We need to save some energy."
Fann Binn nodded and continued to climb up and down behind him. Sometimes, the wind and sand would blow. Their clothes were instantly covered with a layer of sand. Under the sunlight, they were shining with a golden light. It was indeed a unique scene. The direction of the Wukan Village that Wu Boye was pointing at was also very close to them. They were about to arrive.
There were always many twists and turns to good things. Perhaps even the old ancestor of the Tang Sect didn't know about this. A hundred years later, there would be a huge earthquake, and the Wukan Village would be buried, causing a huge change to occur in this region. Looking at the barren land in front of him, Fann Binn felt that this was a completely different world from the Wukan Village he had imagined.
There were weeds everywhere, withered trees and broken branches. Fortunately, there were no crows wailing. Otherwise, this place would really become a dead land. In front of this desolate land that was filled with sand and dust, there was a completely bald place. The mountain that was about to turn into sand, the other two mountains that Wu Boye mentioned. Now, they had vanished without a trace.
As for the river, it had probably been completely buried by the sand. It was no wonder that the areas on the ancient map were so difficult to find in modern times. Such a huge change, even a god would probably not be able to recognize it, right?
Wu Boye took out the red paper and rice wine bowls used for offering sacrifices from the nylon bag and placed them on a small hill. He cleaned the weeds around him. He lit three cigarettes and placed them in front of the bowls and chopsticks. He knelt and bowed. He began to worship his ancestors.
Fann Binn did not know if these tricks would be useful to his ancestors. However, in the H Country... There were such customs everywhere. In fact, there was a bit of feudal superstitious. However, most of it was the way people expressed their thoughts and feelings for their ancestors.
Seeing Wu Boye offering sacrifices, Fann Binn did not stay idle. He took out an ancient map, aimed at the direction, and began to calculate with Wukan Village as the center. The exact location of Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb. Fann Binn had brought a lot of advanced and advanced tools with him on this trip. After all, it was clearly not an ordinary task to only rely on one's eyes and hands to search for the tomb in the wilderness.
He took out the newly developed tracking device from his backpack and took out the miniature drone that matched it and put it in his hand. According to the location measurement on the ancient map, he compared the data directly to the area on the modern map. And... Using Wukan Village as the base point, he calculated the distance and then selected the destination of the drone. He activated the drone.
The drone quickly flew into the sky and disappeared. Don't look at how the drone was only the size of a fist. Not only did it have a camera and infrared measuring device, but it also had an infrared measuring device. It also had a positioning and auxiliary pathfinder function. Typically, this tracking device was used by the Dragonthorn Legion to scout for enemies. Coincidentally, it was used to search for a tomb this time. Fann Binn dragged the Dragonthorn Legion over and brought one over.
According to the coordinates on the ancient map, Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb was about a hundred miles away from the Wukan Village. However, he had to cross over the mountains in this hundred miles. He had to walk for more than a hundred miles in this desolate desert. It was indeed quite difficult for ordinary people.
However, Fann Binn was naturally confident that he would be able to reach it. However, the biggest problem now was that even if you walked to the top of Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb, you still wouldn't be able to reach it. If he couldn't find the entrance, everything would be in vain. Furthermore, there had been a huge earthquake here, and whether the entrance had been destroyed. Or perhaps... It was very likely that the entrance had been damaged after finding the passage, so when it came to searching for the tomb, Fann Binn was still very worried about the tomb.
"Fann? I saw you looking around. Is there something wrong?" After Wu Boye finished paying his respects, he saw that Fann Binn seemed to be in a trance. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "This is the Wukan Village. Before coming here, you really wanted to come here. But after coming here, didn't I feel happy to see you?"
"This..." Fann Binn was not in a position to tell the truth, so he could only smile awkwardly. "Godfather, it's like this. I thought there would be some ruins in Wukan Village. This way, I can leave my name in history because of the discovery of this place. But now, besides the ordinary desolate land, there are no other traces of villages. I really don't know what to do at this moment."
" However, I've already thought about it. A village has been living here for so long. It's impossible for there to be no trace of it, so I decided to stay. I will stay here for a few days and look around to see if there are any new discoveries. Godfather, Little Ni is still waiting for you in the village. You should leave first. I'm fine. There are all kinds of dry food and water in this backpack. I'll go back in a few days. "
Wu Boye was a little surprised and said, "Fann, can you do it? I know that the sandstorm here is very powerful. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a desolate place. Don't let anything happen to you! You city people really don't understand. Instead of living a comfortable life, you just have to crawl into such a harsh place. It's really baffling."
"Hehe, don't worry, Godfather. I'm fine." Fann Binn smiled and said, "I'm just staying here for a few days. If the sandstorm is strong, I'll hide. Don't worry, I have lived in the wilderness many times. I will protect myself well. "
"Alright... since you insist on staying, then I have no choice. You should pay more attention to yourself. After I bring you here to worship, there won't be any problems. Then let's go first. " Seeing that Fann Binn insisted on staying, Wu Boye didn't stop him. After all, this place was barren, apart from a lack of water and a sandstorm. There were no wild beasts and no humans, so there wouldn't be any great danger. It wouldn't be unsafe for him to stay for a few more days.
Not long after, Wu Boye, who had cleaned up, left after saying goodbye. It would probably take him two hours to get back to the parking area. It would take him more than an hour to walk from the parking area to the nearest village where he could take a ride. If that was the case, it would be dark by the time Wu Boye left the place and returned to Wangshan Village.
However, Fann Binn was not worried about Wu Boye's physical strength. Although he was old, he was still a farmer working in the mountains. His endurance and endurance would definitely be much better than the people in the city.
When Wu Boye's figure disappeared on the hillside, Fann Binn immediately carried his backpack, held the tracking device in his hand, and strode towards the direction of the Tang Sect graveyard in Wukan Village, which was located on the ancient map.
Although Patriarch of Tang Sect did not expect such a drastic change to happen here, it happened to make this place unpopulated. This way, the secrecy of Fann Binn's actions could be confirmed without a doubt. No one would know that he had come here. It was to search for the tomb.
The speed of the miniature drone was very fast. In a moment, it had already flown more than 50 miles. The tracker monitor in Fann Binn's hand was directly connected to the drone's camera. It displayed the real-time and clear image captured by the camera. From the image, it could be seen that apart from desolation, this area was also desolate. There were no signs of human habitation at all.
Fann Binn needed to pass through the hills and basins that the drones flew past one by one. There were no roads in these places, not even footprints that people had stepped on. Luckily, Fann Binn had put on the climbing device that he had made. This way, he could use this device to jump down from some deserts. It saved him a lot of time and detours.
Without Wu Boye following him, Fann Binn's walking speed had increased to the maximum. After all, he was an inner force expert. It might be a little exaggerated to climb roofs and walls. However, he still had a speed and endurance that was much faster than ordinary people.
For a hundred miles, an ordinary person would probably have to walk for seven to eight hours at the fastest speed possible. If it was slower, it would take more than ten hours, but Fann Binn only used three hours. He had already arrived at the area where the miniature drone had stopped. The tracking device showed the destination.
