At that moment, Zhao Yu almost jumped out of his sleeping bag. He shivered from head to toe.
In the past, he had envisioned the Qian hexagram appearing countless times. He thought that if the Qian hexagram existed, it would only appear under special circumstances!
However, he never would have thought that the system would suddenly open a "Qian" hexagram in this quiet primeval forest. This was an unprecedented "Qian" hexagram!
Every time the system opened a hexagram, it would return to silence, making Zhao Yu feel like he was hallucinating. But he had been listening intently, so there was no way he had heard wrong!
Zhao Yu had owned the system for a long time, but among the eight trigrams, there had never been a "Qian" hexagram. Hence, he had been wondering if the "Qian" hexagram really existed.
But now, it seemed like the "Qian" hexagram really did exist.
In the past, regarding the Qian and Kun hexagram, Zhao Yu had many guesses. Take the "Kun" hexagram as an example. Looking at the current situation, when the "Kun" hexagram appeared, it meant that something big was about to happen. The Mianling Case, Qu Ping's death, the bank robbery, and the Bank Hidden Corpse Case all had the "Kun" hexagram.
Hence, Zhao Yu naturally thought that the "Kun" hexagram represented man-made disasters!
Then, "Kun" and "Qian" corresponded, and "man-made disasters" corresponded to "natural disasters."
Natural disasters and man-made disasters!
"Qian" represented heaven. Could it be that when the "Qian" hexagram appeared, there would be a natural disaster?
This was going to cost him his life!
The "Kun" hexagram was already powerful enough, but at least it could be manipulated by humans. Would the "Qian" hexagram be even more powerful?! Would it be uncontrollable by humans?
The opening of the "Qian" hexagram undoubtedly cast a shadow over Zhao Yu's heart. This feeling was even worse than when he was worried that the "Kun" hexagram would harm people.
If the "Qian" hexagram really represented a natural disaster, then … would he and Miao Ying be in great danger?
Holy sh * t!
Zhao Yu suddenly remembered something. Back then, the few old experts had encountered the flood here. Could it be that, after twenty years, he and Miao Ying would encounter it again?
Oh my God, what should I do?!
Should I … take advantage of the fact that the "Qian" hexagram had yet to activate and escape?
But … something wasn't right?
Very soon, Zhao Yu thought of something else. This "Qian" hexagram seemed to be slightly different from the "Kun" hexagram. It was a "Gen Qian" hexagram, with "Gen" in front of "Qian". What did this mean?
In the past, when the "Kun" hexagram appeared, it was always at the front.
The "Gen" hexagram represented the progress of the case. Putting aside the "Qian" hexagram, at least it meant that his idea of solving the case was correct. This time, he and Miao Ying would definitely not return empty-handed. At least they would be able to find important clues.
Tsk tsk …
On one side was an important clue to solve the case, and on the other side was a huge unknown danger. So … which one should he choose?
Zhao Yu was naturally not the kind of person who would give up easily. After much consideration, he still wanted to continue! Other than tracking the tomb robbers and finding the truth behind the Tomb Murder Case, he also wanted to see for himself what this "Qian" hexagram represented.
However, no matter what decision he had made, he definitely couldn't sleep well. Being chased out of the tent by Miao Ying was already difficult enough. Coupled with the fact that he had something on his mind, he naturally could not sleep well.
Just like that, he stayed in a daze all the way until dawn. A new day had begun. However, as the sun rose, Zhao Yu's uneasiness grew. The warm sun did not rise as usual, but was covered by a foggy cloud. The mountain air was humid and foggy, as if it was going to rain.
Rain?!
Flood?
Was there really a flood?
Zhao Yu quickly looked at the devices in his head. Luckily, although he did not have many devices, at least there were two Invisible Breathing Devices. If there was a flood, at least he and Miao Ying would not drown!
At that moment, there was only a pile of charcoal left in the fire. Zhao Yu got up and lit the fire to warm himself up, and also to heat up the food for breakfast.
At this time, Miao Ying came out of the tent and stretched her body.
"Sigh!" Miao Ying sighed heavily. "If I knew that you, d * mned pervert, didn't have any tricks up your sleeves, I would have gone to bed earlier!"
Zhao Yu turned around and looked at Miao Ying, who was standing tall. Although she looked tired, she was still charming and beautiful.
Zhao Yu thought to himself, "If it wasn't for the" Qian "hexagram last night, which made me think all night, how could you sleep peacefully? Even if I were to be electrocuted by the electric baton, I had to find a way to get into the tent! "
Zhao Yu thought to himself, but he said something else.
"Captain Miao, what are you thinking about? I, Zhao Yu, am a righteous person. How could I do such a dirty thing? You are such a dog … mm … looking down on me. "
"I am a dog!" Miao Ying quickly came back and said, "Next time, I can't come out with a pervert like you. I have to guard against you like a thief!"
"Hehehe," Zhao Yu laughed and said, "That's not true. How can you compare me to those bad guys? I am a rapist. At most, you will just lose your virginity! But other bad guys will kill you! "
"Pervert!" Miao Ying grabbed the electric baton and pointed it at Zhao Yu. "Do you believe that I will make you incontinence now?"
"Wrong, wrong!" Zhao Yu saw the electric baton and quickly begged for mercy. "Let's … Let's not waste too much electricity. We still have to deal with the enemy!"
The two of them teased each other for a while, then ate something by the fire. Then, they continued their journey.
As they walked forward, they arrived at a relatively dangerous area. The two of them slowed down and observed the situation in the forest carefully, trying to find some clues that the grave robbers had left behind.
The weather was getting worse. Although it hadn't rained, the forest was covered with thick clouds, and it was abnormally humid. In some places, they couldn't even see the top of the mountain.
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying had already entered the depths of the mountain. There was basically no road in front of them, so they could only follow the compass on their phone.
Although they found some footprints, horse prints, and food bags in the virgin forest, they couldn't be sure that they had been left behind by the grave robbers. They could also have been left behind by other backpackers, or the mountain people nearby.
Along the way, Zhao Yu was worried about the arrival of the "Qian" hexagram. So, he kept telling Miao Ying not to go to low-lying areas or places with flowing water. He was afraid that they would really encounter a flash flood!
The Qinshui River ran through the entire Qinshan mountain range. But, according to the records, the place where the old experts encountered the flood was one of the many tributaries of the Qinshui River.
At that moment, the tributary was at the bottom of the valley on Zhao Yu and Miao Ying's left side. Although it was a tributary, it was just a small stream.
Miao Ying wanted to get closer to the stream, but Zhao Yu wouldn't let her. He said that when the ancients hid their treasures, they definitely wouldn't have hidden them near a stream. Otherwise, wouldn't the treasures be ruined by the water?
Just when the two of them had different opinions, Zhao Yu's phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Liang Huan.
Although their phones had satellite communication functions and could receive signals, as they were in the remote virgin forest, the signal was inevitably intermittent. Zhao Yu had to keep changing his position to finally understand what Liang Huan meant.
"Zhao, I gathered my colleagues from the forensics department and a few of my friends who studied Buddhist scriptures. We gathered all the Buddhist scriptures that the grave robbers might have encountered." Liang Huan said excitedly, "Then, I saw you and Team Leader Miao enter the mountain to inspect the place where the old experts encountered the flood!
"Then, I figured out an idea! I entered all the names of the places that you wanted to go into the computer, then filtered and compared them with the scriptures! Guess what?
"In a scripture called Galanshiya Sutra, I matched three words! Not sure if it would help you? "As the signal was bad, Liang Huan said loudly," General — Ridge! That's the three words! "
General Ridge?!
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying quickly looked at the map on their phones and found the place called General Ridge.
"I have a buddy who looked up some historical information," Liang Huan said, "The name of General Ridge has a history. It can be traced back to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. For more than a thousand years, the name shouldn't have been changed!
"I think, regardless of whether it is a coincidence or not, you should go to that place and check! As for the other names, there isn't any! If you go there and find a new name, don't forget to tell me, I will compare it! "
"Alright!"
After hanging up, Miao Ying immediately pointed at the map on her phone and said to Zhao Yu, "About twelve to thirteen kilometers! We should be able to get there before noon! "
"Alright!"
