I am a super cop

"What you said seems to make sense." After listening to Gu Chen's words, the strong man suddenly felt that there seemed to be other corpses here, and his head couldn't help but look around.

He Wenjun nodded silently and said without hesitation: "You are right. Unless this person came here alone, if his companions went out, they would definitely bring people back here to look for his whereabouts."

“But if none of his companions walked out, then there must be a few corpses here.”

"Oh my god, it's so scary at this time of night, but you found traces of someone being here, isn't that person afraid?"

"Or do the two people you are looking for have other purposes here?"

The man with glasses also began to back off at this moment.

Of course, Gu Chen didn't explain it too clearly, but replied slowly: "Maybe they have their own plans, but our goal is to find them."

"Okay." The man with glasses nodded silently, and said without hesitation: "We will listen to you now. We can't get out now anyway."

"However, we must clearly mark every corner, otherwise we may become the next pile of bones."

"We are here to find someone, not to die."

"Don't worry, we can get out." Lu Weiwei also noticed the fear of the man with glasses, so she hurried to comfort him.

After looking around, Officer Wang said, "Everyone should hurry up and get out of this pile of rocks as soon as possible."

Turning his head to look at Gu Chen, Officer Wang said again: "Gu Chen, you lead the way."

"Okay." Gu Chen nodded silently, and began to walk gradually based on his previous understanding of the location of the pile of rocks.

Because everyone was surrounded by piles of rocks, they couldn't see the direction outside.

But fortunately, Gu Chen brought a careful drone with him.

In one of the open areas, Gu Chen directly released the drone.

The drone was in the air, using the light it carried to illuminate an area.

Gu Chen began to observe everyone's current position on the display screen.

After determining the route, Gu Chen let the drone fly over the pile of rocks again to conduct a thorough search of the surrounding situation.

But no other bones were found.

After confirming the specific situation, Gu Chen took the drone back and put it into his backpack.

"Go this way." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he began to speed up.

The others followed closely behind Gu Chen and frantically drew some arrow marks at the corners.

I don’t know how long I walked before Gu Chen realized that the pile of rocks in front of him seemed to have become lower.

After turning one of the corners, Gu Chen realized that he had finally walked out of this pile of rocks.

"Huh!" Gu Chen took a deep breath and turned to look at the people behind him.

The crowd came out from the pile of rocks one after another, and everyone looked very nervous.

You know, being trapped inside is not a good thing.

Fortunately, everyone was safe.

"Little brother, it's a good thing you brought a drone, otherwise we might not be able to get out of this pile of rocks tonight, and we don't know who will come here."

"And the two people you are looking for, what on earth are they doing here?"

"Hikers are definitely here to explore, what else can they do?" Seeing the complaining look on the man's face, the strong man next to him also remarked casually.

The man with glasses waved his hand, took a deep breath, and said:
"In my opinion, this is not an adventure, it is a death sentence. All the people we rescued before, who didn't get into trouble because they didn't respect nature? So people must have a sense of awe for nature."

Turning his head to look at Gu Chen, and seeing that Gu Chen had started to walk away, the man with glasses immediately stopped complaining and quickly caught up with Gu Chen.

The man with glasses now trusts Gu Chen very much, and he is like a real guide.

He Wenjun quickened his pace, keeping up with Gu Chen, shining a strong flashlight in front of him, and also reminded him:
"My boss usually wouldn't take such a risk. It must be that Zhuang Tianhe. He must have tricked our boss here."

Gu Chen suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at He Wenjun beside him, and said, "I think so too."

After he finished speaking, Gu Chen turned around and started walking forward.

He Wenjun was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed and continued:

"This Zhuang Tianhe is really dishonest. He must want to get some money from our boss. Isn't he just short of money?"

"But what I can't understand is why our boss followed him here to suffer?"

"So when did your boss start liking to come to Nanshan Forest Park for hiking?" Gu Chen turned his head and asked.

"This..." He Wenjun hesitated for a moment and said slowly:

"It seems that our boss started hiking in Nanshan Forest Park a long time ago. At that time, the village outside was still very shabby."

"So your boss is still obsessed with this place." Gu Chen also added.

But I was thinking in my heart, could it be that Zhuang Hu actually knew that this was the place drawn on that old sheepskin map?

That's why I have been so persistent in hiking in Nanshan Park for so many years. Maybe my purpose is to find something?
And Zhuang Tianhe, perhaps, took advantage of Zhuang Hu's weakness and controlled him severely, forcing Zhuang Hu to go into the mountains alone with him.

But judging from the situation at the scene, Gu Chen did not find any other traces in the pile of rocks, which shows that Zhuang Tianhe is very familiar with this area.

This also shows that Zhuang Tianhe did some hard research after he got the old sheepskin map.

Moreover, he must have been here several times, otherwise it would be impossible for him to be among the rocks without leaving any trace.

You know, that pile of bones is a warning. Anyone who does not respect nature will die here.

But where did Zhuang Tianhe's confidence come from? Gu Chen thought, it should be that old sheepskin map.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen became more and more suspicious of Zhuang Tianhe's purpose. He felt that this person was not simple, and even Zhuang Hu was confused by him.

But at least he had memorized the contents of the sheepskin map. Gu Chen knew that he might have to go through a cave next.

On the sheepskin map, the route inside the cave is also marked with many shapes.

There are triangles, squares, and circles.

Although Gu Chen was not sure what these places represented, it at least showed that these places had something going on.

And there seems to be something mysterious in the cave.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen still remained in an absolutely high state of alert.

The flashlight swept across the front and soon found the entrance to the cave.

"There is a cave ahead." Gu Chen reminded.

"Do we need to go through?" Yuan Shasha asked.

"Yes." said Gu Chen.

"Okay, let's go." Yuan Shasha said. But as soon as they reached the cave entrance, a cool breeze blew in from the cave, and everyone shivered immediately.

The man with glasses was a little scared at this moment, and he also backed off and said, "What's going on in this cave? Do you know?"

"I don't know." Officer Wang shook his head.

"You don't know? How dare you go in if you don't know? What if something unexpected happens?"

"But we have to go in and look for that person," said Officer Wang.

Another man of medium height also came over at this moment, pulled the man with glasses aside, and whispered: "It may be dangerous inside, should we go in or not?"

"We have to go in." The man with glasses hesitated for a moment and began to analyze the current situation:
"You see, we are currently in a dilemma. If we don't go in now, the three of us will be left alone. There are five of them and only three of us. If we run into some wild beast or something here, it will definitely be very dangerous."

"Are there wild beasts here?" The strong man also looked around quickly.

The man with glasses also said unhappily: "I am just making an analogy. Do you understand?"

"Besides, the mountains here are high and the forests are dense. It's obvious that humans rarely set foot here."

"Places like this are most likely to have wild animals. If an aggressive wild animal appears, it will definitely be difficult to deal with it with just the three of us."

Taking a deep breath, the man with glasses said helplessly: "So, it's better to follow them so that everyone can take care of them."

"Let's go." Seeing that the man with glasses had made up his mind, the strong man urged him.

On the other side, Gu Chen was at the entrance of the cave. After observing for a while, he decided to go in first to see the situation.

The others hurriedly followed Gu Chen.

Due to the cool air coming out of the cave entrance, everyone felt that the temperature had dropped by several degrees.

But when you walk into the cave, it seems that the coolness has not disappeared, and it makes people feel shivering all over.

Especially the rocks in this cave, which are of various strange shapes and look very scary.

With the flashlight shining over there, the shadow looked a little scary.

Therefore, everyone did not keep a large distance between them, but instead huddled together and observed each other's surroundings.

"Buzz! Buzz!" Suddenly, a strange noise was heard in the cave, which made everyone nervous.

Everyone started to move closer together.

He Wenjun also said nervously: "What...what's going on?"

"Don't panic." Gu Chen looked around and began to use his master-level observation skills to observe the subtle movements in the cave.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

As the movement came and went, Gu Chen realized that this cave was not actually too long and that both sides of the cave were the same.

Therefore, once the cold wind blows, some of the strange-shaped stones in the cave will make some strange noises.

Moreover, the caves are connected, so the cold wind blows in.

"It's the wind." Gu Chen reminded.

Since he remembered the markings in the cave on the sheepskin map, Gu Chen began to recall.

It seems that there are some places to rest here.

But in some places, there seemed to be dripping water, and in some places, there seemed to be some small streams.

Judging from the shapes of the markings, Gu Chen can basically rule out the possibility of other intersections.

"Keep moving forward, we'll be out soon." Gu Chen said.

"Then let's go quickly." The man with glasses was very nervous and hurriedly urged Gu Chen.

Gu Chen was leading the way ahead, while the others followed closely behind Gu Chen.

The flashlight swept around the cave, casting the panicked shadows of the crowd on the walls of the cave.

I don't know how long I walked, but the "whoosh" noise ahead became louder and louder, and I knew I had reached the exit.

Gu Chen also used a high-intensity flashlight to scan the surroundings, and then based on his memory of the map.

Gu Chen discovered that after passing through this cave area, he was not far from the place marked on the sheepskin map.

And on the eyelid map, Gu Chen clearly remembered that the ultimate location here was in the middle area of ​​the altitude coil.

This means that the destination is most likely halfway up the canyon.

At one of the locations, there was a painting with a staircase marked on it. Gu Chen guessed that there might be a simple plank road here.

But not long after Gu Chen walked out of the cave, he found that the canyon in front of him was getting narrower and narrower.

Everyone walked quite fast and wide at the beginning, but the further they went in, the narrower the width became, so that in the end, only one person could pass through.

So everyone started taking off their backpacks, carrying them in their hands, and then leaning sideways, slowly moving forward.

After walking in this posture for a while, Gu Chen felt that the space began to become wider.

And Gu Chen also knew clearly that the destination was not far away.

Gu Chen walked to an open area and began to use the flashlight to illuminate the hillsides on both sides of the canyon.

The lights kept moving on the hillside of the canyon, but soon, Gu Chen swept across a black spot.

So Gu Chen quickly moved the flashlight back and shone it on the black spot.

"Yes, this should be the place." Gu Chen said in his heart, and quickly took a few steps forward and began to look for a route to go up.

According to the markings on the map, there is a staircase sign here, which means there is a route that leads up.

"Here, yes, it's here." After some searching, Gu Chen quickly found the location of the plank road.

It is a dirt road, but the slope of the road seems to have been artificially dug out with some stair-like stepping points.

"Is there a cave over there?" He Wenjun also saw a black spot where Gu Chen's light swept across.

Gu Chen nodded silently and said without hesitation: "There is a cave halfway up the mountain ahead, and you can climb up here."

"Climb up? Are you so sure?" The man with glasses came over quickly and couldn't help but complain.

Gu Chen did not explain too much, but simply shone the flashlight on the dirt roads.

The man with glasses was stunned, and he quickly adjusted his glasses. He also took a closer look and said in disbelief:
"Why are there some steps here? They must have been dug by humans, right? Yes, they were dug by humans. Someone must have been here before."

"Yes, someone has been here. This place has never been a wild road." Gu Chen looked at the mountainside and did not say anything.
