Although the Crimson Cloud Eight Sceneries of Crimson Cloud Mountain was not well-known among ordinary people, it was a rare sight for many mountain climbers and sightseeing enthusiasts.
Therefore, even though the tourism bureau had said in advance that to ensure the safety of tourists, climbing Crimson Cloud Mountain without permission was prohibited, there were still some people who did so secretly.
Mr. Xu from Zhen City was one of them.
Although not many people knew about him, before he got married, Mr. Xu was also a well-known backpacker in the circle. However, after getting married and having a lovely daughter, he no longer had any private time and no longer went out to travel with his former backpackers.
The rumored Crimson Cloud Mountain had always been one of his unfulfilled wishes.
Therefore, during these few days when the company was on vacation and his wife took his daughter back to visit her parents, he found his old backpacker friends who used to travel with him. They planned to form a tour group to Crimson Cloud Mountain.
Of course, it was without permission. For some reason, it was very difficult to get permission to climb Crimson Cloud Mountain. If it weren't for the recent construction of holiday estates at the foot of Crimson Cloud Mountain and the lower part of the mountain that had begun to open to tourists, he would have thought that it might be a testing ground for the secret weapons of the Chinese Empire …
In short, today he finally climbed the Crimson Cloud Mountain that he had dreamed of, although there was still some distance to the top of the mountain. The other backpacker friends were finally warned by the public officials. He was the only one who insisted on climbing up.
However, it was here that he saw a scene that ordinary people might not be able to see in their lifetime …
Originally, the dark clouds in the sky accumulated and gathered, finally forming a huge cloud bird.
However, the sky did not clear up because of this. The dark clouds were still there, and the clouds, which were originally calm, were now like the sea in a typhoon. The waves rose and fell, majestic and spectacular.
At first, he thought that the cloud bird was just a phenomenon formed by natural clouds. After all, he was a person who had traveled extensively and had witnessed many miraculous scenes.
But then he realized that he seemed to be wrong.
This was because the huge Cloud Bird was just like a real creature. When it flapped its wings, it formed a powerful hurricane. If it wasn't for the fact that the dark clouds were gradually swallowed by the Cloud Bird and seemed to have calmed down a little, it would have rained a long time ago.
It was no joke to encounter heavy rain near the top of the mountain. Once they were involved in a mudslide, they would probably die.
However, Mr. Xu felt that his target should not be the heavy rain, but the monster in the sky.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have been scared to death, but Mr. Xu was different. Although he instinctively hugged the big rock to prevent it from being swept away by the sudden wind, his mind was still calm.
He tried his best to maintain his balance in the wind and moved little by little to the lee of the wind. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.
However, the sudden thunder gave him a fright. He quickly looked up to see if it was going to rain.
Compared to strong winds, heavy rain was more likely to cause landslides and mudslides.
Reality proved that he was overthinking. The sky was still cloudy, but there was no sign of rain.
After a while, Mr. Xu, who had nothing to do on the leeward side, suddenly had the urge to court death.
No matter how the cloud bird was formed, he could not let go of such a magical scene.
Therefore, he took out his phone and started recording. Along the way, Mr. Xu checked the signal and found that both the 4G network and the phone signal were out of range. Because of this, he accidentally dropped his phone on the ground and broke a corner of it.
It was not uncommon for there to be no signal in the wilderness, so Mr. Xu did not take it to heart.
He was a little disappointed that he couldn't announce this shocking phenomenon in real time on his Weibo. After all, the cloud bird's gigantic body could almost cover half of the mountains in Jiujiang. Even the people at the foot of the mountain and in the nearby cities should be able to see it. He couldn't be considered the first person to discover it.
Fortunately, when this video was released, he would definitely gain a lot of fans for being able to capture such a spectacle at such a close distance.
Unfortunately, he did not know that the cloud bird could only be seen from Crimson Cloud Mountain. Even if people from other places looked in this direction, they could only see a sea of clouds that looked like upside down boiling water.
Carefully, he reached his hand out from behind the rock and placed it at a suitable angle so that he could not leave the leeward side and see the video recorded by the phone.
However, the video displayed by the phone surprised him. Although the cloud bird was still there, for some reason, it seemed to have been cut in half vertically from head to tail by a huge sharp blade!
The ability to move like a living creature had completely disappeared. It was as if it had been killed and turned into a product of ordinary dark clouds. As time passed, it gradually dissipated.
"This … What the hell is going on?"
Mr. Xu was puzzled.
Fortunately, he did not need to worry about it. Not long after he went down the mountain that day, someone from the relevant department brought a man dressed like a Taoist to visit him at the hotel where he was staying.
After the group of people left, Mr. Xu, who came back to his senses, realized that he seemed to have missed a day's worth of memory. However, with the explanation of his friends who came to Crimson Cloud Mountain with him, he found out that he had accidentally slept for a whole day because he was too tired from the excitement the day before yesterday.
Even though Mr. Xu was confused by this explanation, it was not just one person who said that. Furthermore, he did not lose any belongings, and there was still a long time before the holiday ended, so he took it as the truth.
The next day, they successfully obtained the permit to climb Crimson Cloud Mountain and took many pictures of the scenery there. It could be considered a fruitful trip.
"Eh, when did I break a corner of my phone?" On the day they were about to leave Jiujiang for home, Mr. Xu wanted to organize the information in his phone because he did not have enough memory on his phone. It was then that he noticed that his phone seemed to have changed. He scratched his head and did not think much of it. He organized the pictures that he had taken earlier. "Crimson Cloud Eight Sceneries is not bad. This trip was worth it … especially that hundred-year-old red maple. It is a work of art. These pictures are so beautiful. When I go back, my wife will be shocked. Then, hehe … Eh? Why is there a shedding black cat in this picture of the Taoist temple at the top of the mountain? I should delete it … "
