Chapter 383: Tomb Robbers?
After a while, they all finished eating, so they returned to the room together, Zuo Long did not continue to play tricks, but still took out something from his pocket and handed it to Bai Xiu, Bai Xiu only glanced at it and was stunned, this was actually a map made of juan.
He understood, and sure enough, Zuo Long smiled in the next second: "I wasn't sure that little brother you would join us, so I didn't tell the truth, in fact, this news was a smoke bomb we put out, stirring up this trip, and we can fish in troubled waters." ”
He sat down on the chair next to the bed, pointed at Zuo Chun, and then gestured: "Hehe, the two of us are actually the captain of the dragon point, of course we came here to do a vote."
The god plate is fake, but the ancient tomb in the mountain is real, but recently the state has been tightly controlled, and the people are also very conscious. ”
Bai Xiu really didn't expect it to be like this, and he regretted it a little in his heart, not to mention a cultivator, even if it was an ordinary person, the job of robbing the tomb was absolutely impossible, it was one thing to be ridiculed by the people in the circle, and it was another thing to be able to get by in his heart.
He was forced to enter the ancient tomb of Mingyue Island before, so how can he continue to use it as an excuse now?
He made up his mind, and he didn't care if the two of them would turn their faces, so he apologized: "I'm sorry, I was too big before, I'm afraid I won't be able to do this." ”
Seeing his resolute attitude, Zuo Long's face suddenly became a little unpleasant: "You think about it again...... We bought this map from a colleague at great expense, and he didn't dry his hands anymore, otherwise he wouldn't have sold it to us.
Anyway, in a word, this ancient tomb is absolutely real, and there will definitely be no shortage of things inside, and when you get rich, you will have what you want, let alone a lie. ”
Bai Xiu felt strange: "I want to know, why did you find me." ”
Zuo Long pointed to the wound on his wrist that was almost completely covered by the sleeve, and smiled: "You are so seriously injured, you still look good, I'm afraid you are not an ordinary person...... You're a cultivator, aren't you?"
Bai Xiu suddenly felt that the other party was worthy of being an old Jianghu, although he was just an ordinary person, his eyesight was also very thief.
"The ancient tomb we are going to is not an ordinary tomb, it is buried in what you often call an ancient cultivator, it is said that there are not only countless treasures inside, but also many long-lost secret cultivation methods, which are things that cannot be bought with money. ”
Zuo Long said with a sly smile, "That is, you are lucky, the cultivator who promised us to come here temporarily changed his hexagram, otherwise I would not have risked the matter to find you." ”
Bai Xiu was unmoved, he was about to refuse, but Bai Yan spoke: "Uncle, I am also a cultivator, I will go with you." ”
Bai Xiu couldn't help frowning, she avoided his gaze and lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking, in fact, he could understand Bai Yan's plan, if she could really bring something out of the tomb, it would be of great help to what she would do in the future.
But he couldn't let Bai Yan follow these two people to steal and dig the ancient tomb, even if he really wanted to go there, he should go, anyway, he was alone, and he wouldn't have any worries.
Bai Yan is different, she is a child of a famous family, and she is the successor of the Ming Greedy Wolf Division, if she really participates, she is afraid that she will fall behind in the future.
That Zuo Long is also a good person, obviously seeing Bai Xiu's worries, he immediately picked up Bai Yan while the iron was hot: "It's okay, the little girl dares to say this, the ability is estimated to be not small, so we will decide." ”
Bai Xiu said helplessly: "No need, she is young, I'm afraid that she will make a mistake, so I'll go with the two of you." ”
Zuo Long couldn't hide his joy and arched his hand at him: "Then please little brother." ”
He achieved his goal, and left with Zuo Chun in a witty manner, and suddenly quieted down, Bai Yan finally raised his head, looked at him motionlessly, and said slowly: "It's what I want to go, I don't need you to agree." ”
Bai Xiu finally discovered the difference between her and thirty years later, after all, Bai Yan is still a little girl who is ignorant of the world, naturally he is not afraid, he is worried that she will go astray, and patiently tells her his previous concerns.
After hearing this, Bai Yan's face was even more mocking: "That's my business, what does it have to do with you." ”
Bai Xiu really didn't know how to answer, theoretically speaking, he and now she were indeed just strangers who met in Pingshui.
He sighed, said nothing more, settled Zheng Ruyi, blew out the lamp and lay down on his bunk, and said softly: "It's not early, let's rest early." ”
It didn't take long for Bai Xiu to hear her lying down, and just when he thought Bai Yan had fallen asleep, a voice that was barely suppressed sounded in the dark: "I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood, I shouldn't be angry with you." ”
Bai Xiu was stunned for a moment, and felt a little more pity for a while: "It's okay, we are also friends who have lived and died together, aren't we? ”
After a while, Bai Yan said, "Actually...... Actually, I've been there before, and I just want to see if you're in the league with that woman. ”
Bai Xiu smiled: "This is normal, if it were me, I would do the same." ”
"You are really like my brother, I used to make mistakes, and he always comforted me like this. Bai Yan sighed, "He is thirteen years older than me, although we are not brothers and sisters, but I have relied on him since I was a child."
When I was a child, I always joked with him, saying that I would marry him when I grew up, and he always smiled and agreed, so I gradually took it seriously, but he finally married someone else, probably in his heart I will always be just a little sister. ”
She smiled: "Actually, I can't tell whether this kind of relationship is family affection or something else, maybe I'm mistaken, I'm just too possessive, and I don't want to let other people squeeze into our world, and this has nothing to do with love." ”
Bai Xiu listened silently, in fact, he had long been aware of his aunt's vague feelings for his father, but he had no position to analyze whether such feelings were right or wrong, so he could only comfort: "You are still young, you can understand when you are older." ”
"I hope so. Bai Yan whispered, and immediately asked him, "What about you, what kind of story do you have?"
Or the darkness gave him a sense of security, and Bai Xiu also had a desire to talk in his heart.
"I used to love someone very much, but then I killed her, originally I thought I would love her for the rest of my life, but I gradually fell in love with someone else, probably God couldn't get used to my strange thoughts, and finally I and that girl were separated. ”
Bai Yan pondered: "They must all be very good people, although we have just met, but I have a feeling that the person who can be loved by you must be worthy of your deep love." ”
Bai Xiu smiled, and many, many images couldn't help but appear in his mind, as if he had come to the end of his life, and he could recall all the past without regrets.
The two chatted like this for a long time, and in the end they didn't know who fell asleep first, and when they got up the next day, Bai Yan sighed: "I don't know why, you always give me a feeling of familiarity at first sight, I usually don't have any friends, and I told you so much unconsciously." ”
Bai Xiu said meaningfully: "Maybe we knew each other in our last life, no one can say for sure about fate." ”
As he was talking, Zuo Long arrived as promised, and personally brought them breakfast, and when they had washed up and eaten breakfast, he greeted them politely: "Brother Xin, shall we set off now? ”
Bai Xiu responded, called Bai Yan aside, and handed Zheng Ruyi to her: "You just stay in the stack room, and I'll talk about it when I come back." ”
Bai Yan wanted to speak and stopped, and finally nodded silently, Bai Xiu didn't think about anything else, and followed the two downstairs.
Although the time was early, the first floor of the stackhouse was already crowded with people, as Zuo Long said, there were many more people who came to the town today than yesterday, the three of them glanced at each other, and quietly walked towards the outside of the town.
Located less than three miles from the town, it is not very tall, but the strange rocks and dense trees on the mountain are more difficult to walk than some deep mountains.
After just a few hours up the mountain, they had already met several groups of people, but everyone tacitly changed their routes.
Zuo Long estimated that he had already found out where the entrance was, and they walked around the mountain for more than half an hour, just to hide people's eyes.
Unconsciously, the three of them touched the ground, and Zuo Long excitedly pointed to a hidden hole on the cliff above his head: "That's right, this is it." ”
The entrance to the cave was five or six meters above the ground, but the distance was not difficult for them, and the three of them quickly climbed up before there was no sign of anyone else nearby.
Zuo Long was very experienced, and when they all entered the cave, he cut some grass and trees from nearby as a cover and re-blocked the entrance to the cave.
After walking a few steps inside, the light gradually dimmed, Bai Xiu turned on the flashlight and saw that the cave in front of him was not big, but it was very deep, slowly tilting downward, and it was ten meters into the mountain.
At the bottom of the mossy cavern, he could faintly make out a bluestone path that meandered along it.
Zuo Long was overjoyed for a while: "There are traces of artificial excavation in such a remote cave, it seems that it will not be wrong." ”
They walked down the bluestone path towards the depths of the cave, and in only three to five minutes, the space inside came to an end, and at the end of the road appeared a hole that was almost blocked with silt and dead grass leaves.
This hole can also accommodate one person to pass through, if it weren't for the sharp eyes of the three people, I am afraid that they would think that this is a small quagmire.
Seeing that things had come to an eyebrow, Zuo Long's father and son were naturally full of enthusiasm, and soon they dug up the mud and cleared the hole.
There is still a passage under the entrance of the cave, which is very narrow, like a duck's intestine, zigzag down, and there is no end in sight.
