Chapter 180 Snowland
"Remember what?"
"Senior He once set up a deep trench here to prevent others from entering the five-mile radius of Guiying Peak."
But, can anyone go to Guiying Peak this time? If so, will their rescue plan be discovered?
Yan Moying pondered as he and Yin Ruchen continued to move forward. As they walked, he discovered that not only was the trench different from the last time he came, but the roads that led to it were also completely different.
He asked Yin Ruchen again: "Was it always like this here before?"
"Well, almost. Generally, not many people come here. It has remained the same for many years." Yin Ruchen replied.
"Oh." Yan Moying thought: This is normal. Last time, Senior He set up those links to test me. Now Ruchen and I are here to take direct action. We no longer need those tests, and the surrounding environment will naturally be different.
They walked for a while, and Yan Moying realized that the last time he was lifted up by the clouds in the deep ravine, he was in a completely different place. That place was not Guiying Peak itself at all. It was hard to say where it was. It was all an illusion created by He Taichu.
Before he left the illusion last time, He Taichu told him the characteristics of the place he needed to find and the method of entering the place in Laiguiying Peak. This method was not written by He Taichu on the paper recording the rescue process, in case Yan Moying lost the paper and the secret of the hidden place was known to irrelevant people. The first step of the rescue must not be known to people other than the rescuer, but the subsequent processes can be written on paper, because as long as the first step is not taken and the specific place cannot be entered, the subsequent situations will not appear, and even if outsiders read the subsequent rescue processes, it will be useless. What's more, even if other people read the paper, they will not understand what those processes are used for, because He Taichu wrote it very cleverly. There is not a single word on the whole paper that mentions the ultimate purpose of their actions. Others can't understand what the paper says, but Yan Moying has heard He Taichu's detailed description, so he can understand those words that others can't understand at a glance.
The hidden place is a cave hidden in the Guiying Peak. It cannot be seen from outside the mountain. No one knows about it except the rescue mission. The east side of Guiying Peak is a vast open space, which is covered with thick snow all year round. People who have never been there would hardly imagine that there is such a flat and open space on the side of such a towering mountain. When the rescuer reaches the snow-covered open space, he can enter the cave in the peak according to the method provided by He Taichu.
Yin Ruchen and Yan Moying arrived at the snowy area, put their luggage next to the peak wall, and walked to the designated position in front of the peak wall according to He Taichu's request. Although it was a bright moon in the sky, they lit torches for easy inspection. They dug up the thick snow on the ground that was closely connected to the peak wall, and with the help of the firelight, they immediately saw a small groove at the bottom of the peak wall, with several slightly protruding small stone pillars in the groove. Yan Moying took out the small jade flute in his hand and compared it with the groove. He found that it was just as He Taichu said, the small jade flute could lie horizontally in the groove, and the slightly protruding small stone pillars in the groove could just fit into the holes of the small jade flute.
