The Ninefold Secret Realm Chapter 15 Footprints

Liu Laohan continued his story with the Demon Buddha. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

My three brothers, Stinky Dog, Rat, and Fat Intestine, knew that I had bought this ancient map, and they thought that this trip might have been neglected, because the lama master of the ancient map was not the same as they had encountered before.

Most of the lamas I met in the past had a condescending sense of superiority, not only to collect a deposit, but also to ask to go to the inverted fight together, and the unearthed artifacts were divided according to their value, so they could not suffer at all.

But this time the lama is a little different. He came up with a seemingly unreasonable agreement: I was required to buy out the ancient map directly in cash, and he would not take a cut of the harvest.

The strange behavior of the lama lord also made me very suspicious at the time, but the purchase and sale of ancient maps were not negotiable, and the decision must be made immediately, whether to want it or not, it was all in a thought. Based on my many years of experience, I can judge with certainty that this ancient map is genuine. Since it's genuine, I'm not going to let go of this opportunity. I made up my mind and bought this ancient map with almost all of my possessions.

But the strange behavior of the lama lord still made me very uneasy, I pondered repeatedly, read a lot of ancient books, and consulted some veterans in the industry, and finally found that the reason why the lama lord wanted to collect money in a lump sum was not because of fraud, but because of a line of ancient characters on the ancient map.

The meaning of that ancient sentence is very puzzling, and I still haven't figured out the specific meaning behind it. The ancient sentence is to the effect: The ninefold secret realm, prosperity is more prosperous, and decline is more declining.

According to the map, I led the three brothers into the primeval forest in the north of Luoyang City, we have been deep for more than 20 days, but according to the compass, we still haven't found the place shown on the map, we don't have much food on us, and we already need to hunt to replenish along the way, almost to the point where we run out of ammunition and food, and we can't go inside.

The three of them have been in the industry for no more than 10 years, and most of them are mixed in the wilderness and mountains, and rarely set foot in this kind of primeval forest, because of their lack of experience, their hearts are not calm, and they are afraid and suspicious of the road ahead, thinking that this kind of exploration for a long time is not appropriate, so they began to complain to each other, disheartened, and the desire to go back is very strong.

And I don't quite agree with them, I consider myself a veteran in this area, and I think there are two reasons why we should not go back at this time: first, we are in the primeval forest, the flora and fauna are abundant, we have plenty of guns and ammunition, food and water are not a problem at all. Second, I have studied the topography of feng shui more deeply, this area can not be classified as any pattern at first glance, but it obviously gathers a lot of good factors in feng shui, that is, this is definitely not a coincidence, this feeling is very special, there will be places with a particularly low altitude in the mountains, and these places, the fog has been very heavy, the air will not drift away with the wind, there is a feeling of a fairy dragon. Anyone who has a little feng shui attainment, as soon as he sees this terrain, he will immediately cheer up. This is probably a special pattern that has not been summed up by previous people. There is a high probability that there are huge tombs buried in this area.

However, the three brothers' attainments in feng shui are not as deep as mine, and they probably admit to death, and after reading several good patterns in ancient books, they memorize by rote, and treat the rest of feng shui patterns as breakthroughs, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

I saw that they were too difficult to convince, so I simply turned my heart on the side and pressed them with my identity as the boss to the point of saying, "Since I am the boss, you have to listen to me at this time." ”

These people who came out to mix still attached great importance to the concept of morality, although they were not convinced, but when they heard this, they also decided to continue to go with me.

Persisted for another half a day, in the hinterland of the primeval forest, the cries of animals came and went, the whole forest because of the dense trees, and the light was very dim, in the daytime we had to turn on the searchlight to slow down, the compass kept holding so as not to get lost.

Just when I began to doubt myself and everything here, under the light of the flashlight, the ground was covered with mud and fallen leaves, and I finally found something, and the mud began to appear dotted and hollowed, scattering along the road ahead.

I immediately crouched down and began to observe, and took a closer look at the flashlight, and found that these depressions seemed to be the footprints of something, the footprints were small and very thin, but the depth of the steps was very deep, and the most terrifying thing was that the footprints that were obviously not human were walking on two feet, and there seemed to be more than one number.

This is certainly not an ordinary species, but the older generation taught me that strange places are prone to evil spirits, which means that we have found a clue. We decided to follow these footprints through the woods.

Going around in the jungle of the primeval forest, we walked for a while, and found that there was something exposed in the mud in front of us, shining with a flashlight, it was a clay pot, and the ornamentation on it was from the previous era of the Western Han Dynasty, and the style was not a Han thing, and it was carved with a very strange and abrupt pattern.

The appearance of this strange clay pot made us immediately realize that what was recorded on the ancient map was correct, that there was indeed something in this primeval forest, and that my prestige was re-established.

We continued to follow these footprints, and soon found several broken plates similar to the crockpot on the dirt floor further inside. This piece was very close to the ruins, and the owners of the footprints seemed to be living around the ruins.

We all immediately cheered up, feeling that the unfortunate sins we had suffered in the past month had been rewarded, but fortunately we did not turn back halfway, otherwise we would have done it in vain.

We discussed it for a while, and decided to put away the ancient map of the tomb book first, and focus on following these footprints all the way down, and my intuition was that only by following these footprints could we discover the ruins.

We quickened our pace, but the mood changed from the excitement at the beginning to the later more and more worried, and the "footprints" became more and more dense, as if we were moving towards the "footprints" nest. The surrounding environment is also very unfavorable, the trees along the way are getting denser and thicker, and we have to cut some branches to barely get through, and this place is really impossible to escape in case of any accidents.

After walking for several hours, our energy was very drained, and I wondered as I went, "What is the owner of the "footprints?"

There was no movement along the road, and these footprints seemed to be created out of thin air, and strangely, the whole primeval forest did not know when it began to be silent.
