Chapter 62: Blackwater Dragon City
Seeing this black brick city wall, Wei Xingshan was a little happy in his heart.
Because he realized that there were more stupid people than the four of them who had been here.
And where there are walls, there is a city, and in this kind of ghost place, it would be nice to have a city as a shelter.
If he still spent the night in the fern forest tonight, people were sleepy and horses were tired, and he was surrounded by giant insects, Wei Xingshan would feel strange when he thought about it.
"How can there be a city here?" asked Anne curiously.
"Maybe the secret that Liu Shunfu wants to hide is in it. Lin Shuo knocked on the city wall.
"That's a good thing. Yang Tuo smiled rarely, "Walking in the forest before, I felt that in such an environment, those lumberjacks would not survive." But if there is such a city, the chances of them surviving are very good. ”
"Hey, Lao Lin. Wei Xingshan looked up at the nearly twenty-meter-high city wall, "Let's go in and have a look?"
Lin Shuo quietly stepped aside: "Captain Wei, please." ”
Wei Xingshan didn't react: "No...... How could I have climbed over such a high wall!"
"Then why do you think I can turn it over?"
"Is there anything else in this world that you can't do?" Wei Xingshan looked suspicious.
"I'm a hunter, not a snitch. Lin Shuo said angrily, "Interlacing is not profitable, I don't teach this kind of ability at home." ”
"Hey, I'm much more balanced when you say that. Wei Xingshan grinned and laughed, "So you won't!"
"I really can't walk on the wall, but I'm good at beating people. Lin Shuo glanced at Wei Xingshan.
"What's that. Wei Xingshan hurriedly diverted the topic, "Let's find the door quickly, if there is a wall, there will be a door." ”
"Yes. Yang Tuo nodded, "Mr. Lin, without further ado." ”
"Let's go. Lin Shuo was too lazy to bother with Wei Xingshan, and continued to lead the way.
The four of them walked along the base of the wall.
With such a wall by his side, his sense of security has risen a lot, and Yang Tuo, who was originally silent all the way, has also opened up the chatterbox.
"I really didn't expect that in such a hidden place, someone would be the first to climb and leave such a big city. Yang Tuo said, "Looking at the height of this wall, this should be a huge project." ”
"yes. Anne also said, "A project of this magnitude is not something that can be completed overnight. ”
"It stands to reason that such a large project should be recorded in history. Yang Tuo said strangely, "Why have you never heard of it?"
"Is this a secret project?" asked Anne.
"Possibly. Yang Tuo said, "As long as we enter inside, we can always see some clues." ”
After walking along the root of the wall for more than half an hour, a corner finally appeared in this city that was sleeping in the dark.
It's an L-shaped corner, and another wall stands in front of the crowd. The four of them looked up and saw a corner of the wall sticking out of the cornice.
"This is the city gate structure!" Yang Tuo looked excited.
Wei Xingshan followed behind Lin Shuo and said, "Old Lin, this thing is strange. ”
Lin Shuo was a little puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"You said we'd go into the crypt, right? Wei Xingshan said in a deep voice, "And then the scenes along the way, you have also seen, are all strange things." Then I probed, and suddenly a city appeared in the darkness, and as I walked, the gate appeared, and how could I be so familiar with this bridge?"
"What the hell do you want to say?" Lin Shuo glanced at the giant man.
"Lao Lin, you say, could this be a ghost town?" Wei Xingshan asked softly.
"Possibly. Lin Shuo nodded.
"Huh? really?"
Lin Shuo said seriously, "I've been to the ghost town of Xudu, it's very similar to here, but it's not as big as here. ”
"Have you ever been to the ghost town of Xudu?"
"Well, I'll tell you about Xudu later. Lin Shuo said, "The ghost town in front of us is bigger than the ghost town in Xudu. I think the stuff in it is also more powerful than the drunk. Old Wei, tell me the truth, you are still not a child?"
"Lao Lin, I'm Chinese New Year's Eve three today. Wei Xingshan made a bitter face, "For me, the body of a boy is the past of seventeen years ago. ”
"It's pretty early to open the meat. Lin Shuo shook his head and sighed, "Then you're done." ”
Wei Xingshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, puffed out his eyes and said, "Lao Lin, don't scare me. ”
"I'll tell you. Lin Shuo also suppressed his voice, "There are three yang lanterns on the person, one on the top of the head, one on each shoulder, the yang lantern is not extinguished, and the general ghosts dare not get close." However, when encountering powerful ghosts, these three yang lanterns are not enough, and they must also be children. You're not a virgin now, this trip, hanging. ”
"Lao Lin, are you telling all this, are you true?" Wei Xingshan's face turned white.
"Fake. Lin Shuo shook his head, "From the novel." But it's enough to scare and scare someone with an IQ like you. ”
"I'll go!" Wei Xingshan breathed a sigh of relief.
"And this city is not called a ghost town. Lin Shuo raised his head and looked directly above the city gate.
"What's that called?"
"Doesn't it say it says it should?"
Being reminded by Lin Shuo, Wei Xingshan hurriedly raised his head.
As Wei Xingshan raised his head, the headlamp on his head also shone up, hitting the plaque directly above the city gate.
On this stone plaque, there are two big characters: "Dragon City".
......
"Jingle bell", "jingle bell".
Liu Shunfu rode a donkey and finally arrived on the bank of the Heilongjiang River.
From Liaojiazhai to here, he met four groups of people along the way, all of whom were local mountain people.
Liaojiazhai is the last stop of this year's Dragon King Festival. According to the rules of previous years, Liu Shunfu will reveal the route of the Dragon King Festival in the second year at this time, so that the news can spread, and the villages will have a preparation in advance.
This year is no exception, Liu Shunfu still told the first three mountain people the route and asked them to take them back to the village.
In this last batch, Liu Shunfu looked at the person who came.
This person Liu Shunfu knew, it was a young descendant, the youngest son of the old hunter of Longxinggou, eighteen years old this year, carrying a bundle of firewood on his back.
Liu Shunfu thought for a while, and then let the young descendant stand beside him, broke a branch himself, and drew a route for the Dragon King Sacrifice on the land.
After finishing the painting, Liu Shunfu asked the descendant: "Do you remember?"
"Remembered. The little poster nodded.
Liu Shunfu wiped the road map on the ground with his foot, and handed the branch to the descendant: "You draw it and I'll take a look." ”
The youngest son of the old Orion family had a good memory, and soon drew it as it was.
"Good. Liu Shunfu was a little relieved on his face, and then said, "You go to Liaojiazhai and draw this route to Widow He." Tell her that the next Dragon King Festival will follow this route. ”
"Master Emissary. Xiao Housheng was a little puzzled, "Why do you want to show Widow He? She is not the manager of Liao's village." ”
"Don't ask, just do it. Liu Shunfu fumbled around his body for a while, took out a piece of jade pendant, and handed it to Xiao Housheng, "You take this, an old object in the Northern Song Dynasty, worth a few dollars." ”
"Oh, I don't dare take anything from you. Xiao Housheng was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, "I'll give you this letter." ”
"Take it. Liu Shunfu broke the palm of Hou Sheng's hand and stuffed the jade pendant into his hand.
"That'...... I'll kowtow to you!" Xiao Housheng knelt on the ground, and was about to knock his head down, but was picked up by Liu Shunfu.
"Thank you for my words. Liu Shunfu said, "The child in Widow He's womb, you remember to take care of it in the future." ”
Xiao Housheng was stunned for a moment, wanting to ask something, but in the end he didn't speak, just nodded heavily.
"He's a clever boy. Liu Shunfu patted Xiao Housheng's shoulder, "Go ahead." ”
Seeing the little housheng walking away on the mountain road, Liu Shunfu covered his mouth and coughed a few times, and said to the donkey beside him:
"You are not allowed to laugh at me. ”
"I said that I would not let my children and grandchildren continue to suffer, but in the end, I was still reluctant to inherit these dozens of generations. ”
"That's all I can do. ”
"What happens after that, it's up to fate. ”
"Donkey, it's time for you to go back. ”
"Remember to show Widow He those books on you. Whether the little guy wants to learn in the future or not depends on his own interests. ”
After saying this, Liu Shunfu let go of the reins in his hand and reached out to pat the donkey's buttocks.
The donkey turned around three times and slowly disappeared into the mountain road.
Liu Shunfu reached into his arms again, took out a porcelain bottle, and put the last pill inside into his mouth.
Then the last descendant of the Liu family's water pasture, a fish jumped, and jumped into the Heilongjiang River.
