Chapter 125 Arriving at the tombstone
Nothing happened at night, everything was normal, and when the sky was just slightly bright, Zhang Huaitu and Ma Wenkai both got up.
"It's not bad tonight, nothing else is happening, let's get to our destination in a minute. Ma Wenkai asked Zhang Huaitu while tidying up the tent.
"Yes, but before that, we need to solve our personal stomach problems, and we can't work hungry. Zhang Huaitu said with a smile.
"I still have a few compressed biscuits, you can take them and eat them, I won't eat them. Ma Wenkai looked around, the meat was all eaten last night, and there was nothing left in the morning. said to Zhang Huaitu very casually.
"How can you do it if you don't eat, although we are all martial arts practitioners, but the meal still has to be eaten on time, otherwise the stomach will be broken, and the uncomfortable person will be yourself, and the price to pay at that time will not be a simple matter of a few meals, breakfast, you don't have to worry, you just need to pack up the tent here, I know there is a river over there, I went to catch a few fish and came back, it will take about half an hour, during this time, you yourself are careful here, as long as you don't move around during the day, there should be no danger." Zhang Huaitu could see what Ma Wenkai meant at a glance.
Ma Wenkai lived in the Dudu sect before, had never survived in the wild, and didn't know much about some predatory methods, but he didn't want to trouble Zhang Huaitu all the time, so he said duplicitously that he didn't want to eat.
"That's okay, I'll clean it up first, you can just get some of it. I eat less. Ma Wenkai knew that his thoughts had been recognized, and he didn't twist and turn, looking at Zhang Huaitu and saying.
After hearing Ma Wenkai's words, Zhang Huaitu first briefly checked the surrounding situation and made sure that it was safe before leaving.
Walking alone on the road, in this rough forest, there is a thin layer of white on the branches of the trees in the morning, on the unknown flowers and plants, and there is still a trace of cold in the early autumn morning. Fortunately, Zhang Huaitu was walking, and the blood in his body kept moving, so he didn't feel so cold.
It took ten minutes to come to the river, the environment here has not been damaged, the water in the river, although not crystal clear, but it also looks clear and green, you can see some fish swimming.
On the way here, Zhang Huaitu had already found a relatively strong branch, and used the small dagger he carried with him to carry the branch more easily, and sharpened one of the ends, like sharpening a pencil. Wait a minute, Zhang Huaitu plans to use this sharpened branch to stab the fish.
Zhang Huaitu remembers that when he was very young, at that time Huaxia had not developed much, and where he lived at that time, there was a river not far away, and every time the summer vacation came, he would ask a few friends to play in the mountains, and occasionally go to the river to catch fish. At that time, Zhang Huaitu was a little expert in catching fish, using this method of stabbing fish with branches, I don't know if the level of thorny fish has decreased after so many years, I think about it, I really miss the time when I was a child.
Just do it, there are still a lot of fish in the river here, Zhang Huaitu just stood in the water by the river for a while, and some fish swam over, Zhang Huaitu held his breath and let the surroundings be quiet.
It was too late, it was fast, and when the fish were swimming, the branch in Zhang Huaitu's hand had already pierced the fish in the water, but unfortunately, the fish in the water seemed to notice it and swam away at once.
Seeing the fish swimming away, Zhang Huaitu was still a little depressed, but immediately adjusted his mentality and continued to wait in another place.
In the end, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and in the last two times, he caught a fish, and it seemed that he weighed three catties every month. Wearing two fishes, Zhang Huaitu walked back.
More than half an hour has passed at this moment, and Ma Wenkai has been looking into the distance, still thinking, why hasn't he come back yet, and he won't encounter any danger.
When he was chattering, he heard a sound, Ma Wenkai quickly cheered up, I don't know if it was Zhang Huaitu or the beast coming, Ma Wenkai kept staring at the place where the sound sounded, and after a while, he finally revealed some figures, and when he saw that it was Zhang Huaitu, he finally relaxed.
Zhang Huaitu came to Ma Wenkai's side, raised the two fish he was wearing, and said, "The harvest is not bad, you can have a hearty breakfast later." ”
Although both of them are boys, fortunately, Zhang Huaitu had a little experience in grilling fish when he was a child, and he wasted some effort and time to finally cook the fish.
Zhang Huaitu and Ma Wenkai simply had breakfast, and then continued to set off, the road was quite smooth, and they didn't encounter any difficulties until they saw the inscription.
"Well, another hour or two will do, as long as you don't encounter anything else on the way. Zhang Huaitu stood on the side of the road, looking into the distance and said.
The main purpose of Zhang Huaitu's coming this time is to see if he can crack the second formation, last time I remembered, the first formation was just an obstacle formation, as long as you find the eye of the formation, you can break it at once, ordinary people can do it, but the second one is indeed a psychedelic formation, which can make people lose in it, even Zhang Huaitu didn't dare to rush in, last time it was to save Ding Pengfei, and he used up his aura all at once, at that time, he still rested for a few days to recover.
Looking at the tombstone not far away, "This is the tombstone, I didn't find anything special." It looks very ordinary. Ma Wenkai said to himself.
"Don't look at the surface calm, if you are not careful, you will touch the surrounding formation, you should be careful. Wait a minute, follow the route I took, and don't move around. Otherwise, I'll need a little more effort to get you out. Although this section of the journey will not touch the formation, there are also some traps, so it is better to be careful. Zhang Huaitu told Ma Wenkai to pay attention.
"Well, okay. I'll follow you. Ma Wenkai nodded and agreed, seeing Zhang Huaitu's serious look, he couldn't help but become serious.
Seeing that Ma Wenkai knew, Zhang Huaitu was relieved, and then observed the surrounding situation, and then walked over step by step, observing as he went.
Don't look at the short distance of 10 meters, but because you don't have to walk in a straight line, you need to keep turning and walking to walk correctly.
Ma Wenkai saw that he also followed in a similar way, following Zhang Huaitu step by step, not daring to fall too much, if he fell too much, he couldn't remember the correct pace, and it took nearly five minutes for the two of them to come to the tombstone.
"This tombstone is safe all around, if you look at the words on the back of this tombstone, do you know it?" Zhang Huaitu said.
"Well," Ma Wenkai answered, then walked to the back of the tombstone, looked at it for a while, and said a little dejectedly: "This is too difficult to recognize, I think it is the same text as the map, but unfortunately I don't recognize it." ”
"It's okay, when the time comes, I'll have the opportunity to go to your secret door to find information. Zhang Huaitu showed that he didn't care.
"Well, but who arranged this formation, what's the use of arranging this formation?" Ma Wenkai had never been in contact with formations before, so he didn't know much about formations.
In fact, Zhang Huaitu didn't know much about it, but because he had been exposed to some similar formations in the cultivation realm, he only knew some of them. In fact, there is a formation, and there must be some secrets hidden in it. Zhang Huaitu just wanted to know what these secrets were, because the formation might have something to do with the cultivation realm, so Zhang Huaitu wanted to see if it could really answer some questions about earth cultivation.
Could it be that in the ancient times of the earth, there was really the power of cultivation, and for some reason, the cultivators disappeared from the earth?
"Do you know some things about cultivators?" asked Ma Wenkai with an attitude of trying.
"I've heard a little about this, but it's also what the elders in the sect told us, but he didn't say that it was Xiuzhen, he just said that on the earth, there are some people who can't be offended, and these people can destroy a small country with the power of one person, and he also warned us that if we go out to wander in the future, don't provoke these people, but I've also heard of it, and I haven't seen it, at least not in the sect of the secret sect that I know. ”
Ma Wenkai said cautiously, with awe in his expression when he spoke, and then said: "Of course, these are all recorded in the book, and there are also some things that the elders of the sect have told us. ”
"Well, but there are indeed true and false, at least in some contemporary books, it is also recorded that in the Spring and Autumn Period, a person can carry Jiuding, you must know that Jiuding has a weight of thousands of catties, and it can be lifted, and the person who can lift it, the strength can be imagined, it is such an important thing, but after thousands of years of washing, it is now missing. This corresponds to some of the things you just said. After listening to Ma Wenkai's words, Zhang Huaitu didn't believe all of them, but some of them were consistent with what he knew.
"In this way, this is indeed the case, and now on the earth, there are still many unsolved mysteries, if we can explain why there are no cultivators on the earth, or why the cultivators have disappeared, we will know the answers to those unsolved mysteries. Ma Wenkai also nodded, agreeing very much with what Zhang Huaitu said.
"Okay, we've talked so much, but we haven't solved the second maze yet, I hope we can solve it this time today. Last time, I simply unlocked the first formation, but at that time, because of my lack of strength, I had to return. Zhang Huaitu put some ideas behind, and now he has to rush to solve the matter in front of him.
"That's right, Huaitu, we don't know the words on this tombstone, you can take a picture with your mobile phone, and then take it away, if you use it, you don't need to run back and forth, saving time. Ma Wenkai made a suggestion.
"Yes, no need, I've already taken this one, I didn't bring my phone and camera when I came last time, this time I made preparations for this, just now, I have already taken a picture, for the sake of insurance, you can also take a picture." Zhang Huaitu had already thought of it, so when he just arrived at the tombstone, he took out his mobile phone and took a picture.
