The huge shadow of Dragon's Spine gradually covered the forest in this area.The sun that is gradually slanting to the west has turned to the back of the Dragon's Ridge, but the thin clouds above the sky are still scattering the light, and the steep bare mountain body acts as a reflection surface of amazing scale, making the forest still look bad at this time dark.The team of the survivors climbed up to the last high ground. They are now at the foot of the Dragon's Spine, and the huge creamy yellow mountain is in front of them. From this distance, they can feel its strange aura even more.However, even Yunshen doesn't have much energy to give it. No matter how majestic the scene is, lingering in the field of vision all day will also make people feel tired. What's more, the huge rock complex is very monotonous. Eyes hurt.The strange thing is that Dragon's Spine itself looks like a barren land, but at its feet, the trees grow very lush.

As the field of vision gradually widened, the traces of people gradually appeared.An area had been cleared out in the dense forest under the Dragon's Spine, and many people had camped there before the survivors arrived.Some have obvious black hair, and more have various hair colors and complexions. Yun Shen thinks that the hair color of a boy running through the forest is particularly strange. Does it seem to be colorful?The tribe that took out the village earlier than the survivors has come, and the earlier tribesmen of the survivors are probably hunting and working in the mountains. They got the news early in a way that Yun Shen didn't know much about. Standing in front of the woodland and waiting.

Some survivors ran towards them, and the long-lost family was reunited. Although they tried their best to restrain themselves, they could still see their excitement.The rest of the people walked to the designated territory, let go of all the burdens on their bodies, and began to rest. The patriarch and elders gathered together to discuss something, and occasionally cast their eyes on Yunshen.The bereaved family seems to have an unspoken rule of determining status by contribution, but now Yun Shen doesn't care much about these.He staggered just now, and was picked up by the young man beside him.Fan Tianlan rejected other people's concern and left the large crowd with him, and came to a relatively secluded corner.After Yun Shen sat down, he took off his shoes with an irresistible gesture.It was not easy to take off the lace-up hiking shoes. Yun Shen untied the lace of the other shoe by himself, and slowly pulled out his foot. The white socks on his feet were already bleeding.

Fan Tianlan's movements were already light, but when he took off his socks, Yun Shen still frowned slightly.The pain is not unbearable, but watching this slow process feels huge.After finally taking off the sock that looked a bit miserable, Fan Tianlan held up his left foot to look at the condition of the blister, and said, "It needs to be broken."

With a bitter face, Yun Shen turned his head away from the scene where the other party cut the blisters on his feet with scissors rubbed with alcohol.The line of sight can be shifted, but the ears can't be blocked, click, click, and the sound is crisp and sharp,... It's too neat, and I can't imagine the tragedy.

Carefully squeezed out the liquid accumulated in the blisters, wiped off the blood and lymph with the last small piece of clean towel left by Yun Shen, Fan Tianlan wrapped bandages around his feet.Bandages are precious medical supplies nowadays, but Fan Tianlan is really not stingy when using them.

Yun Shen moved his feet and felt much better, so he picked up the shoes that were put aside and tried to put them back on, but was stopped by Fan Tianlan.Yun Shen raised his face and looked at him, a little confused, so the other party replied concisely: "Rest now." After a pause, he added, "They will come over by themselves if there is something to do."

This sentence was verified very quickly. Fan Tianlan had just packed up the bandages and the like when footsteps came from the side.He raised his head and looked at the few people walking towards here.

The patriarch of the bereaved family, several elders, and priests, these faces were already familiar to Yun Shen during this period of time, so he could notice the middle-aged man who came with them at a glance.Of course he was also black-haired, with a stocky build, a weathered complexion, deep wrinkles on his face, and sharp and shrewd eyes.Although Yun Shen's feet wrapped like steamed buns are not suitable for meeting guests, he still respectfully bowed to the young man.

"My lord alchemist, I am Li Hong, the leader in charge of the tribe's trekking tribe. It is a great honor to meet you."

Yun Shen moved. During this period of time, he already knew what Fanshan people meant to the survivors.The Hermes family strictly restricts the external transactions of various tribes in Lois, especially the survivors.As for smelting minerals in private, that is a crime that can directly exterminate the clan.Regardless of planting or hunting, having tools is completely different from not having tools, no matter how powerful you are.In order to improve the living conditions as much as possible, the survivors secretly hid some low-level ore in the mine, or took the hunted monsters across the mountains to places where Hermes soldiers could not reach, and exchanged with other tribes. The hard work is basically done by the strongest men in the survivors, who are collectively known as the Fanshan people.After receiving the news of the robbing of the residence of the bereaved family, the leader of the Fanshan people immediately led that part of the tribe towards the Dragon's Spine. For Yun Shen and them, today was the first time they met each other. .

As another leader of the tribe, this man has a demeanor that is clearly different from that of the Nanshan patriarch.Yun Shen smiled slightly at him, "Hi, I'm Yun Shen. You look very kind, may I ask Luo Jiang and you..."

"Oh, that's my child." Li Hong said, there were a lot of fallen leaves on the ground, so he sat down directly, diagonally opposite Yun Shen.Following his movements, other people also sat in a circle around Yun Shen.

The young man next to Yun Shen refused to speak easily, and the uncle named Li Hong fell silent after sitting down. Stiff atmosphere, "We will enter Dragon's Spine tomorrow morning."

"So, what's the specific situation?" Yun Shen asked.

Li Hong hesitated for a moment, and took out a map from his arms, but instead of handing it directly to Yun Shen, he handed it to Fan Tianlan for him to hand over to Yun Shen.Yun Shen took it over, looked at the zigzag lines on it, raised his head and asked Li Hong directly: "Is this secret passage artificial?"

"Yes." Li Hong replied a little surprised by his directness.

Yun Shen thought for a while, "Historically—what was this tunnel built for?"

The map here does not have a scale or the exact concept of distance. It is basically impossible to get specific data from it, but it has been said before that it takes two days for a lightly armed team to pass through it. From the point of view of symbols, this tunnel is not only long enough, but also has a complex structure, a kind of regular complexity.It is unlikely that a mountain like Dragon's Spine will form a natural passage, and the survivors have relatively safely used it as an exclusive secret passage, which has become a tradition. Based on various known conditions, Yun Shen estimates that its formation time may be in the famous Before the noble lords of Hermes took control of this area.In that long past, was there enough manpower and material resources to construct such a huge underground project? ——Even from a country that has built the most super-projects in human history, it is hard for Yunshen to imagine how much work it would take to get through the Dragon's Spine without the help of various construction machinery, and judged by Yunshen's own engineering knowledge , what this map shows is very likely not the authentic whole picture.

Who is it, and for what reason is it built at an unimaginable cost under such a peculiar mountain as Dragon's Spine?More importantly, what does the person who built it need it for?

Li Hong paused, and said, "I don't know. There are legends that before the disappearance of Emperor Fatales, he had already selected a tomb for himself somewhere in the Middle Continent, and asked 5000 dwarves to build it for him for 3 years. time……"

Yun Shen looked at him, "But you don't believe it."

"Yes, I don't believe it." Li Hong said, "This is definitely not a tomb. But the problem we have to face now is not this, but..." He pushed aside the fallen leaves on the ground to reveal an open space, and with a dead branch On the soil, he drew the map in Yun Shen's hand, and somewhere on the map, he drew a circle, "While waiting for you to arrive, I sent two people into the secret passage to investigate, and found some places that were not So right."

"What happened there?" Elder Xu Jin asked.

"The road collapsed and a dark river appeared," Li Hong said.

"It's impossible!" Elder Xu Jin said immediately, and immediately realized that he had slipped his words, he coughed and slowed down his tone, "When I was young, I walked through the Dragon's Back Secret Path a few times, and I still remember that place...there will appear Dark River is almost impossible."

"A month ago, there were indeed only rocks there, but now the dark river has indeed appeared." Li Hong said in a deep voice, "I sent in the best lads, not inexperienced boys. They really came from the dark river." Water has been drawn from the river, and, according to what they say, there may be other things in the dark river."

"...what?" The patriarch asked.

"They couldn't see clearly after the torches went out." Li Hong replied, after a moment of silence, he continued, "Fortunately, they came out alive."

For a while no one spoke.The situation in front of us is more difficult than expected. The Dragon’s Back Secret Road is not a good place, but it can be said to be relatively safe before. There is only darkness, twists and turns, and cold and dry air. There are no dark creatures worth being afraid of.But now there is a dark river in the depths where water should not appear. No one knows when it appeared and what it means—at least for those who need this secret passage, this is definitely not a good omen.In particular, there are still unknown existences in the water.In this world, even the children of the bereaved family know that the more dangerous and obscure the birth, the more difficult it is to deal with.

"It's impossible to change the route..." the old priest said slowly.

Neither the survivors nor the other tribes gathered here can afford this price.What they are going to is not a brave new world. After Dragon's Spine, there are still many difficulties waiting for them, and time is the most important thing to wait for.

"Go ahead." Fan Tianlan said.

Yun Shen put down the map in his hand, raised his head and said, "Let's try to find a way, it's not that bad."
