"Master, shall we go ashore?" Ding Dong asked excitedly.

"Come on, let Song Yu and the others go up first, defend on the sideline, and the rest will go up." Ling Qingyu woke up from his contemplation and said.

The boat arrived at a bay, and towering mountains could be seen in the distance. Not far from the coast, there was already a gradually rising highland.

There is a river not far from the bay, and this is the mouth of the river.

Ling Qingyu asked Song Yu to set up a simple camp on the high ground by the river, Chu Cheng led people to carry some daily necessities down, and the others went to look for food.

After wandering in the sea for two months, they finally stepped on solid land. Everyone was very happy and they worked very neatly.

Fishing for fishing, hunting for hunting, gathering for gathering, dinner is very rich.

Spreading out the map on the simple wooden table, Ling Qingyu said to his core confidants: "This is the Andes Mountains, and the entire plateau is above three thousand meters above sea level. This mountain has the most abundant silver mine." Seeing Zhou Tan's eyes brighten, Ling Qingyu smiled and said, "Although I didn't expect to come here first, how about we go and take this silver mine?" ?”

"Of course that's good." Several people laughed. For this new continent where no one has ever been to, how could the head of the family know that there is a silver mine here? Everyone just ignored it as before.

"However, crossing the Andes is not an easy task. On the way, we need to find corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, climb mountains, and guard against Indians. We also need someone to guard the boat." Ling Qingyu pointed at the map and said.

"Xiao Se and the others stay here. With the Xiao family's iron guards, self-defense is no problem." Ding Dong said: "I will follow this time, and you won't take me every time!"

"Well, Huang Lian and the twenty new sailors are staying, and Shizaiye is also staying, and Xiao Se and the people of the Xiao family are staying, so that the combat power here is enough, and everyone else is going up the mountain, you are ready, this time It's going to winter now, and it's very cold on the mountain, we'll set off when we're ready." Ling Qingyu nodded.

When Su Ce and Xiao Se heard about it, they both asked to follow.

"Xiao Se, it's not that I won't take you there. You see, I don't even go at Sixteen Nights. The mountain is too high, and the children's bodies can't bear it. There is also a disease that is prevalent here. Children are the easiest to catch. If they are rescued, they will be saved." Don’t come back, and look, what if our boat is snatched away when we go so far away? Isn’t it that we can’t even go home? We Xiao Se are little adults, so you want to help me share my worries.” Ling Qingyu Persuade.

"Then why Ye Shiyi can go!" Xiao Se exclaimed unwillingly. In fact, he also understood what Ling Qingyu said in his heart. He was too young, and the mountain range could not be seen from here. This time it is not a tour. , even with fifty iron guards, he is still a burden.

Ye Shiyi jumped onto a tree in a jerk, jumped down again, and said to him, "If you can do this, my sister will take you there too."

Bully! Martial arts is amazing! The sixteen nights who couldn't go all looked at him with contempt.

"Boss, can't you take me there?" Su Ce said seriously to Ling Qingyu.

"To be honest, your physique may not be able to climb up." Ling Qingyu smiled. Zhu Weili and Shi Fang's physique is not very good, but she can send someone to carry it, but this scholar, to be honest, she is not very willing to let him see how she finds those things, for these people around her No matter how weird she is, and how incredible she knows, they will not have any doubts. This is the trust accumulated over a long period of time, but this Su Ce, she has secretly read his travel notes, and there are some doubts in it. If you show him what she knows in a brand new continent, I'm afraid he will treat her as a monster.

Seeing that Su Ce's expression was very sluggish, Ling Qingyu smiled and said, "You can go around with Xiao Se, but remember to bring your iron guards." Seeing his pitiful expression, he continued, "If we find him when we come back, The city of the locals, I will take you there again."

"Really?" Su Ce's eyes lit up and asked.

"Really." Ling Qingyu smiled. It should be no problem to take you to see Cusco.

"Okay, I'll wait for the head of the family to come back safely." Su Ce said with a smile. He can roughly see that Ling Qingyu and the others are doing something with a purpose. He has a strong curiosity, but he also knows that Ling Qingyu doesn't trust him. , it makes no sense.

After three days on the coast, the camp was built stronger. Ding Dong led people to dock the Fengshen at the mouth of a leeward bay, so that it would not be blown away by the wind, nor would it be so easy to be found, and then transported many items on board. When they got down, some of them stayed in the camp, and some of them were packed and taken away according to Ling Qingyu's instructions.

Ling Qingyu taught Huang Lian by his side for three days, what to do if locals come, the silk and porcelain they bring are rare treasures that the locals have never seen before, you can exchange them with them, but don't reveal Cai, if the situation is not right, we should quickly get on the boat and run away, and so on.

Under the leadership of Xiao Ke, the iron guards of the Xiao family even inspected the surroundings. Basically, there were no people in the area for dozens of miles, and while Song Yu and the others were still there, they exchanged defensive formations.

If so, three days later, except for the four gentlemen and Ling Qingyu, the rest of the people started to head towards the Andes Mountains with the big burden that Ling Qingyu requested to order on their backs.

After walking for a day, the mountain began to steepen and the temperature became lower and lower. Few people came to the mountain, and there were no roads. The animals I met were not afraid of people, and they stood by and watched leisurely grazing.

Along the way, Ling Qingyu has already found wild corn and potatoes, as well as peppers and tomatoes. He thought he would come back, so he didn’t collect them. He just told Zhu Weili that these were the species she wanted to bring back. Lots of fresh plants and lots of surprises along the way.

After walking for two more days, the joy was gone. The altitude has reached more than 3,000 meters. They are all from low-altitude areas. Some people began to suffer from altitude sickness. Ling Qingyu ordered to stop and rest for everyone to adapt to the plateau. Fortunately, they were all young people with very strong bodies. After a day's rest, they were alive and well again, but within two days of setting off again, they encountered snow-capped mountains and had to make a detour. Ling Qingyu found himself a little lost, and the plateau was dry and cold. Zhu Weili and Shi Fang were also a little bit overwhelmed.

In the evening, we took an early rest and camped.

The tall snow-capped mountains next to it are reflected in the lake, and the grassland next to the small lake becomes a campsite.

Set up a tent, spread a blanket, light a bonfire, and the clean plateau suddenly becomes lively.

After walking for so many days, I didn't see the Incas. Ling Qingyu looked at the map and wondered if he had gone the wrong way. Although in this era, the glorious Inca Empire of later generations was just a prototype, but at this time, the South American continent , There were not many Incas, and many of them also started farming and animal husbandry, but now they have not encountered a single settlement.

Yan San took his own blanket and covered her legs, it was almost nighttime, and the temperature dropped a bit.

Ling Qingyu glanced at him gratefully. She is very afraid of the cold now, and even though she thought that the temperature would be low here as it was approaching winter when she came here, she still didn't expect it to be so low. According to records, the Inca's wool textile technology is very superb. If you find the aborigines, you can exchange some wool products.

"Yan San, we may have lost our way." Ling Qingyu frowned.

"Oh." Yan San replied, holding her tightly in his warm arms from behind.

"You're so easy? If we get lost, we might all die. We don't know what's ahead. If we want to climb over the snow-capped mountains, there will be glaciers on the mountains." Ling Qingyu said melancholy.

"It's fine if we can die together." Yan San smiled and rubbed against her ear, seeing her glaring over angrily, said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, at worst, let's go back, I won't let you die here."

That's right, if it doesn't work, go back. Anyway, the purpose of my visit is to find corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, and silver mines. It depends on chance. There is no need to risk so many lives.

The breath of the man behind him started to get rough, and there were also some strange protrusions below. Just as Ling Qingyu was about to talk about him, Yan Qi had already lifted the curtain of the tent and said, "It's time to eat."

Seeing Yan San's annoyed look, he pecked him on the mouth, Ling Qingyu got up and went out with a smile.

Sighing, Yan San took a cloak and chased it out, and put it on Ling Qingyu.

Sitting by the fire and eating dry barbecue food, Zhu Weili and Zhou Tan Huangjing talked softly. The crew drank some wine to warm up, and the atmosphere became lively. No one worried about their future, which made Ling Qingyu Feeling the heavy burden on my shoulders, I couldn't help thinking about returning.

"Someone is coming." Yan San whispered next to Ling Qingyu's ear, and then swept in four directions at the same time with Yan Qiying and Jiuying Er. It didn't take long before they brought four men over.

Wow! Finally meeting the locals, Ling Qingyu was very happy, and hurriedly asked Yan San to unlock the acupoints of the four people, and gestured to them to show his sincerity.

The four local men are all brown-skinned and not tall. They looked at Ling Qingyu vigilantly, and at the same time looked in horror at the man who grabbed him like a ghost and made him unable to move. Who are these people? Weird costumes, weird language, and that god-like power.

After talking, the four people still remained silent. Ling Qingyu was silent for a while, then stood up, pointed at the fiery red sunset in the sky, uttered the Inca voice of the sun god, then pointed to himself, and said: "I am the sun god Messenger!"

The Inca pronunciation of this sentence was said by a local Inca when she visited Cusco. Although the accent was a bit strange when she said it now, the four people could still understand it.

The four of them all showed horror on their faces, they looked at each other, but they still didn't make a sound.
