Book 1: Chapter 173

I glanced at it. The white thing was very dirty, but some dust fell off when Kan Jian's marbles hit it, revealing a bit of hidden color below. It appeared to be a logo, which was probably the brand of the paraglider. It was in German and looked a little familiar. I thought it over carefully and realized that the words were actually a German name. I had been in contact with this company before.

When I was in Tibet, I had profound dealings with the employees of this company. The company had actually acquired Qiu Dekao's company and inherited many of his projects.

I was kind of surprised that this company was so interested in the Wu family. In fact, I appeared so frequently in Qiu Dekaos companys data that they even joked that there was a department dedicated to researching me. They interviewed me many times and offered me great terms, but I couldnt say too many things or make money off of the things I did in the past.

However, the company's previous research direction had something to do with Qiu Dekao's plan in China. Uncle Three and the whole listening to thunder thing had nothing to do with them, so why did they suddenly appear here?

A lot of very complicated things must have happened in this forest back then. The scent markers for this path seemed to point to the Wu familys special skills, and there was also that space under the tree and this parachute in the woods. Everything happened over a very long time span. The royal poinciana and tulou mustve been built and planted at the same time (probably around 1890), the space under the tree was excavated after liberation, the skins on these trees may have been set up as path markers nearly five years ago, and then the parachute must have landed here around three years ago.

There were at least four groups of people who had explored or messed around in this forest for more than a hundred years. I decided to call the royal poinciana planters and tulou builders the "path marker expedition team", because they planted the royal poinciana as path markers through the forest and then built a tulou over the entrance to the calling spring. They were actually marking the route to Thunder City.

When it came to this team, I could only make blind guesses. First of all, they did things on a large scale and had a lot of patience. It was extremely prudent, intelligent, and extremely patient of them to plant trees to mark the path. They wanted to hide Thunder City, but also leave some information for future generations.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

It actually sounded quite reasonable.

Kan Jian figured out a way to bring the paraglider over to us, while the rest of us continued looking for marks around the royal poinciana.

To my surprise, no matter how much we searched this time, we couldn't find Poker-Faces mark at all. As time went by, we became more and more anxious, but we really couldn't find it.

In fact, this was a very normal thing. People who hid things had a much higher advantage than those who were looking for them. But the other three people kept looking at me. It made feel uncomfortable, as if I had made some sort of mistake. I couldnt help thinking, maybe we wont find it. Maybe its not here because Poker-Face finally decided to go to the calling spring. In other words, he gave up on this route. Maybe when he got here, he gave up and chose to go to the calling spring instead.

Off to the side, Kan Jian quickly pulled the paraglider over. We found that there werent any bones wrapped up in the fabric. A lot of people crashed into trees or cliffs while gliding, and many people fell to their deaths before opening the paragliders sail. If the sail was opened, then the person was probably alive, so it was normal for there not to be a body.

We climbed back up the tree trunk again and Liu Sang asked, "Do you have any idea which direction to go in?"

"I have to rely on your ears for that," I replied.
