Chapter 25 Memory VS Reality

How did Shengxia prove that he hadn't done anything? Guyu certainly knew, so he quickly avoided this question.

After dealing with David and Daniel in anger, Gu Yu and the other two continued to set off.

There are no trees in this mountain canyon, but there are many wild flowers that look very much like heather.

Stepping on the incense and the wind, the three of them were rushing faster and faster.

At about noon, they arrived at the target location.

This is a huge stone peak. Gu Yu listened to it with his ears and found that he could not hear the scene on the top of the mountain, nor the length and width. It seemed that he was more than a thousand meters wide enough for his ears.

There are cliffs on three sides of the stone peak and steep stone obstacles. There is only a very narrow gentle slope on the north side. The widest place is estimated to be fifty or sixty meters, and the narrow place is probably only two or three meters. It is also the only dangerous road to climb up the mountain.

Guyu looked at the slope on the back. The steepest place was probably either a seventy-degree angle, or the steepest place was the narrowest. On both sides of the slope two or three meters wide, there was a deep abyss. He couldn't help but be amazed and said:

"This mountain is not easy to climb!"

Shengxia shook her head and said:

"It's easy to climb. There are small trees specially planted on the slope, which can be used as handrails and are safe. There are also stone nests stepped on by residents of the village under your feet, which is easy to step on."

Guyu carefully searched with his ears, and it turned out to be as midsummer said.

In midsummer, I led the way to the north slope, and first stepped up the hill with a pickaxe.

At the beginning, the hillside is not steep, with a slope of only about 40 degrees. It is easy to climb with trees that are arranged properly.

Gu Yu looked at the moss on the stones under his feet and said in confusion:

"Does there very few people on this mountain go down the mountain? Moss is growing on the stone steps!"

Shengxia nodded and said:

"Yes, this may be the last ancient village of the Basques. Now most of the people living there are older generations, and young people have gone down the mountain and entered the city to live.

Whenever winter begins, the people in the village will go down the mountain a few times, buy enough supplies to spend the winter, and then they will not go down the mountain once a few months."

Guyu enviously said:

"Then this place is simply a paradise!"

There is no noise, no one disturbs it.

Shengxia nodded and said:

"Well, it's beautiful! The top of the mountain is very flat and spacious. There are only a dozen buildings in the small village, all near the cliff to the south. There is a small lake filled with rain, with many small fish and water birds in it.

Of course, that was what it was many years ago. I don’t know what it is now. I haven’t been here for a long time, but when I read the videos and photos posted by my father, I feel that there is no change from the previous generation.”

Guyu nodded relievedly.

He could already hear the top of the mountain, but he did not hear the location of the small village. After hearing what Shengxia said, he realized that it was because the small village was at the southernmost end of the top of the mountain, which exceeded his infrasonic hearing range.

"This is the stronghold where you Basque people used to resist the battle, right?"

Shengxia nodded proudly and said:

"Yes, I heard from my mother that we Basques have defeated more with fewer victory here many times, which completely failed the enemy's encirclement."

Before these destructive weapons brought by modern technology emerged, such terrain could leave all armies helpless.

"The narrowest place is here, your care is...well? Where is the Ling Dongsolar?"

Gu Yu turned around and wanted to remind Ling Dongzhi to pay attention to safety. But when he turned around, he found that the person was missing. He quickly listened and found that this guy was pulled a hundred meters away. It was obviously because he was too devoted to chatting with Shengxia and forgot his existence.

They waited for a long time before they saw Ling Dongshe coming late.

This guy has a good head, but unfortunately his physical fitness is really average. After climbing these hundreds of meters, he was sweating profusely, and his face was filled with silver light, which was the salt stain left after the sweat evaporated.

This section of the road is extremely narrow, with cliffs on both sides. If you accidentally carry it, you will be the next life.

So Guyu waited until Mr. Ling got behind him and strung the three of them together with a rope. Then he carefully held the tree pole and climbed the steepest 70-degree slope along the stone nest.

If you step up here, you will be the top of the mountain.

On the flat slope of the mountain, Guyu and Lingdong Sora play drums in the heart, but it is like midsummer and people who are fine. It seems that as she said, she must have come here to play when she was a child.

When Shengxia returned here, she was immediately excited and shouted that the two big men would get up quickly, then take the lead, heading towards the small village in my memory.

Ling Dongzhi was very dissatisfied with the title of a big man, muttering, "I'm younger than you." While getting up, holding his chest and feeling his heartbeat. Obviously, he had not recovered from the fear of heights on the steep slope.

After walking forward for more than a hundred meters like this, Gu Yu frowned.

Ling Dongzhi found that Gu Yu's expression was the same and hurriedly said in a low voice:

"What's wrong?"

Gu Yu glanced at the midsummer that was several meters ahead of him and whispered:

"I heard the edge of the cliff to the south, there are no villages here!"

Ling Dongzhi narrowed his eyes and looked very old.

In Guyu's heart, he might have made a presumption of guilt about Shengxia, and then he whispered:

"Will there be any conspiracy?"

Ling Dongzhi slowly shook his head and said:

"Even if it is a conspiracy, it is not a conspiracy of the summer. The demeanor in the eyes of the summer is definitely not a pretense. Don't speak out first, and then take a look when you go to the place."

The flat-top vegetation is sparse and there is a wild road that our predecessors have stepped out. From this we can see that this place should have been inhabited, but Guyu couldn't hear the existence of a building.

After walking for a while, Sheng Xia first asked in confusion:

"The road under our feet is not right. It used to be covered with bluestone, but now there is no bluestone, only the original foundation. I remember there is a very thick orange tree at this location, but it is gone, it seems... It seems... all the scenery is different from the past, and it is different from the photos and videos my father sent me last year!"

As he said that, Shengxia took out her cell phone, opened the album, and played a stored video.

The video reminds Jack Sheng's voice, and occasionally he will appear on the screen.

Obviously, this video is Jack strolling in a wilderness and shooting beautiful scenery for midsummer.

"Rus, look at this orange tree. When you were a child, you liked to climb this tree the most. It has produced a lot of fruits this year. Look, there is a daffodil that you planted, and the flowers are all in full bloom..."

Gu Yu saw that the shooting time shown on the video was at the end of August last year, a month before Jack Sheng's accident.

"Midsummer, is this?"

Shengxia looked at Guyu, full of doubts and said:

"The scenery taken on the video is where we are now, but it is all different, completely different!"

It can be seen that the mood of midsummer is definitely not fake. The excitement and the changes in the heart beat are all heard by Guyu.

"Let's go, let's go to the village and ask them what's going on here!"

Midsummer accelerated its pace and almost ran towards the village in memory.
