"Brother Long, please rest assured. Since I have come with you, I am naturally moving forward and retreating with you. Let's make sure where your father is. Let's go there first." Lu Niu nodded and said to Long Heping.

"I have never climbed this mountain from Linshi City, but I have climbed it from Pingjiangyuan. However, I have only climbed the mountain side, and I have never been here. According to my estimate, it will take one day to reach the place I have been there." Long Heping said.

"Okay, let's climb to this mountain first," Lu Niu said. Then, the two climbed towards the mountain.

"Please see, there is a swamp in front. I saw the swamp there and didn't move forward anymore." When I arrived at the top of the mountain, my eyes widened, but there was a swamp at the foot of the mountain in front.

"Brother Long, what kind of terrain is there on that side of the mountain?" Lu Niu asked.

"On the other side of the mountain is actually a barren mountain. The sand accumulation on the mountain is very thick. When there is a strong wind and rain, sand will continue to rush downward to Pingjiangyuan. Therefore, people in Pingjiangyuan generally do not climb up the mountain. I climbed the mountain because my father did not let me stay by his side and asked me not to have too much contact with other people in Pingjiangyuan. I walked on the mountain because I was bored.

However, climbing such a mountain, and climbing aimlessly, there is no pressure inside. The mountain is full of sand, which is easier to walk than this densely-wooded place and I don’t feel tired. It’s really strange. I remember that there are no plants on the mountain there,” Long Heping said.

"Oh, so, Brother Long, then it should be more than a day's journey to the mountain you have been to.

The swamp was over, and there was a dense mountain, but I was sure that there was still a swamp on the other side of the mountain. It is possible that what you see from Pingjiangyuan was that swamp, not the swamp we see now." Lu Niu said, looking at the mountain at the end of the swamp.

"Oh? So, the mountain we see is actually an island protruding from the swamp?" Long Heping asked.

"It's definitely the case." Lu Niu nodded and said.

"Brother Lu, do you think my father will be imprisoned on that small island?" Long Heping suddenly looked stagnant and said with a nervous expression.

"Brother Long, we should not have an absolute expectation attitude. But since we come here, we must find your father before we can stop.

OK, let’s not care about this for now, we are just going to cross the swamp, which is a bit difficult.” Luniu said.

"Yes, we can walk through this swamp, but I guess we will be exhausted when we walk to the island. More importantly, we walk slowly like this. But don't worry, after all, I have been by the river for a long time, so we can make a wooden boat to row over it." Long Heping said.

"Boat on the swamp? Haha, this is fresh." Lu Niu said with a smile.

"Brother Lu, don't laugh, because Pingjiangyuan's geography is special, I saw some children playing. They once used a wooden board to lay a piece of mud, but they could play like a skateboard.

Now, we will make some trees to make a rough boat. Then we will stand on one side, and we will naturally reach the foot of the mountain like an arrow." Long Heping said.

"Okay, let's do it." Lu Niu nodded immediately and went to cut down trees with Long Peping.

In order to make a small boat with a whole piece of wooden board, Long Heping chose a big tree that only three or four people could embrace.

If this is an ordinary person, it would be very difficult to cut down such a big tree. However, the two of them had the cultivation level of the Earth Martial Arts or above, and the weapon used by Lu Niu was a big knife. It would be very easy for them to work together to cut down this tree. With a cup of tea, the tree was cut down. Then, the two of them worked together to cut down a piece of the thickest part about one foot. Next, there was nothing Lu Niu had to do, and Long Heping used his sword to slash the tree on this piece of tree.

However, Luniu did not watch Long Heping turn the tree into a boat, but walked back to the stump of the cut down tree, bent over, and knocked on the pier with a knife on the back.

"Brother Lu, what are you doing?" Long Heping cut the tree into the prototype of the ship. He was about to ask Lu Niu to use a knife to help him dig a trough out of it, but when he saw Lu Niu hitting the stump, he asked curiously.

"Brother Long, why don't you do this ship for the time being? How about we dig a hole down here?" Hearing Long Heping's scream, Lu Niu stood up and knocked the tree stump with his sword and said.

"Brother Lu, have you discovered something?" Seeing Lu Niu like this, Long Heping knew that Lu Niu had discovered something, so he immediately walked to Lu Niu and asked.

"Brother Long, listen." However, Lu Niu knocked on the tree stump with the back of the knife again.

"This, Brother Lu, I'm sorry, I really didn't understand what you mean. The sound of knocking on the wood is similar. Can you tell anything?" However, Long Heping asked in confusion.

"Brother Long, I'm sure there must be a hole under the root of this tree." However, Lu Niu said so.

"Oh? Brother Lu, how can you be sure?" After hearing Lu Niu's words, Long Heping immediately sank and asked immediately.

"Brother Long, use something to knock on wood. Although wood of different thicknesses and varieties of trees will make different sounds, the sound is very solid. However, when I knocked on this stump, I heard the sound of knocking on a bamboo tube.

Listen, the pounding dong... is it so loud? There seem to be two kinds of sounds." Lu Niu immediately knocked the tree stump again with the back of the knife and said to Long Heping.

"Yes. Brother Lu, you are so amazing. Why do you have such a strong ability to pay attention to the details of things?" Long Heping listened carefully, was shocked immediately, and said to Lu Niu excitedly.

"Haha, I'm just used to it." However, Lu Niu said indifferently.

The ability to observe and perceive the details of things is generally a person's natural ability. However, if a person has undergone special training, he can also develop this ability.

Lu Niu's ability was naturally learned from Wang Gongnan when he was with Wang Gongnan.

Wang Gongnan has a habit of having to discuss anything whenever he encounters, and the result is that he can easily solve the problem.

Yes, everything happens with a cause. To be more precise, anything has its characteristics. As long as you find out or pay attention to this characteristic, you can quickly figure out what is going to happen and quickly know what special situation is in the surrounding environment.

So, now Luniu is sure that there is a hole in this mountain.

Long Heping previously said that his father sent him a message saying that he was trapped in a collapsed cave. Since his father is still alive, it means that the cave has not collapsed and there is still room.

So, now that Lu Niu said that there is a hole in the mountain, he of course would think that this should be where his father lived. So, he was extremely excited inside.

"Brother Lu, can you guess how high the hollow is from the ground?" Long Heping said nervously and anxiously at this moment.

"Brother Long, don't estimate these things first. I think it's better not to dig down.

This is a big tree, and this tree is naturally a lot of roots. We need to dig a hole vertically here. Is this big? So, I suggest not digging down from above, but finding a place to dig flat into the mountains.

Look, there is a vertical cliff on this side of the mountain. Let's find a position on the cliff and dig it inward." However, Lu Niu opened his eyes and looked around, pointing to a ravine next to him and said.

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Lu." Long Heping seemed very anxious at this time, and how could he have his own opinions? He nodded to Lu Niu immediately.

So, the two immediately dodged and reached the edge of the steep cliff. A thick vine hangs downwards, and they grabbed the vine and slid downwards. When they were about ten feet away, there was a large protruding stone, and the two fell on the stone and stopped sliding downwards.

"Brother Lu, are you sure it's here?" Long Heping immediately asked when he saw Lu Niu stopping.

"Brother Long, I don't know. However, I think it's best to dig in this position. Because if you go downstairs and dig down, the stone will definitely be pressed down once you dig down. Once the stone is pressed down, the soil next to it will loosen. If we dig again, the soil will pour down, which will cause great trouble for us to dig holes." Lu Niu said.

"Yes, yes, yes, brother Lu, you really know too much. OK, let's dig here." After hearing Lu Niu's words, Long Heping nodded immediately, and then he inserted his sword into the earth wall in front of him. With a move of his hand, a large piece of soil fell down, and a hole appeared in the earth wall.

"Brother Long, we got points to work, one digging, and one cleansing the soil and strengthening it.

You can drop so much soil by digging with your sword. I already feel that the soil here is relatively soft, and there are few stones inside. Such a geographical structure is very unstable. We must prevent it from collapse. We cannot be buried, haha." Seeing Long Heping nervous, Lu Niu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Okay, it seems that I am using a sword in my hand. If I want to dig, it will naturally be as fast as Brother Lu. So, the work of digging caves will be hard for Brother Lu." Long Heping said.

"Okay." Lu Niu didn't hesitate, and immediately pulled a knife and inserted it into the hole dug by Long Heping. Then, with a force on his wrist, another large piece of soil leaked down and fell down the cliff.

At this time, Long Heping didn't need to clean up the soil here. So he immediately grabbed the vines and climbed upwards, and then the sound of "bangbang" cutting down trees came from the mountain.

It turned out that he was chopping down the big tree they had cut down before, and he cut it into pieces and brought it into the space ring.

Since Lu Niu said that the soil in the mountain was soft, he naturally had to find a way to strengthen the holes he would dig.
