Chapter 42: Zhuolu's Journey
When we arrived in Zhuolu, Hebei, it was already noon, we first found a hotel in the county and opened a few rooms, and after putting our luggage away, we had lunch in the small restaurant downstairs of the hotel.
According to Mu Xiu's arrangement, we will leave early tomorrow morning, and after lunch, we will move freely, and a few of them will discuss going to play around first, while I will go back to my room to take a nap.
I had just laid down when there was a knock on the door, "Who?" I asked.
"Me." Mu Xiu's voice came from outside the door.
Why didn't this guy go to take a nap and come to me for something? I didn't think much to get up and open the door.
"Is there something wrong?" I opened the door, looked at him and asked.
"Let's go inside." Then he went around me and inside, "Close the door first." ā
At this time, I began to think crankily, all kinds of YY in my mind, and then I thought back that I really wanted to give myself a mallet, after I closed the door, Mu Xiu took out a hand-drawn map, and I looked at it even better than I drew it.
"What is this?" I leaned forward and asked.
"Map of Zhuolu's territory." As he spoke, Mu Xiu flattened it and put it on the table.
I walked over and looked at it, and found that the map was punctuated with various marks, which looked chaotic but not chaotic.
"Well, I'd like to ask." I said to him that something suddenly occurred to me.
"What?"
I walked over and opened my bag, then took out the hand-drawn map I had drawn and laid it flat on the table.
"I just wanted to ask, shouldn't we follow my map to find the tomb? How did you get so many fights that had nothing to do with this map? ā
First Songshan Village, and now Zhuolu, so how long will it take to get to the ancient tomb we are going to? A series of questions crossed my mind.
"You'll know when the time comes." Mu Xiudao.
I gave him a blank look, "It's time again, when will it be?" ā
"It won't be long."
"Okay, okay, then what are you looking for me for?"
Since I knew that this guy wouldn't tell me easily, I didn't bother to ramble with him and went straight to the point.
"I'll talk to you about tomorrow's trip."
Then he told me all about his plan, and I listened attentively, and tomorrow we were going to reach a barren mountain, which I could not even name, and it was simply deserted.
"You have a good rest today, and tomorrow will wake me up for twelve minutes, this time it may be even more thrilling than the previous one."
"Huh?! Still thrilling, huh? Can I not go? ā
"Nope." After Mu Xiu finished speaking, he put away the map and went out directly.
"Is there any sympathy at all? I don't even have any room for negotiation, I'm so angry! I grumbled to the closed door with a sad face.
Early the next morning, really as Mu Xiu said early in the morning, he was woken up at five o'clock, and then washed and changed clothes and had breakfast, and then prepared to leave, we arrived at the nearest small village to the destination, and spent money to hire a local old uncle as a guide, fortunately, our packing is not too heavy, so climbing is not difficult.
About an hour or so, we arrived at the destination that Mu Xiu said, and then sent the guide away like last time, looking at these four barren mountains and mountains, I asked Mu Xiu, "It's so barren here, will Dou really be here?" Mu Xiu didn't answer me, but walked around, observing every place in this place.
"If I'm not mistaken, Chiyou's tribe was here."
When he said that, I ran over and asked him, "I thought you were going to take us to the place where the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou!" ā
"What are you going to do there?" Mu Xiu looked at me and asked.
"Iā" I didn't know what to say, "I don't know either!" ā
The others laughed, "Laugh, laugh, what are you laughing at?" "I'm not happy anymore.
Then Xiang Anton also came over and asked Mu Xiu, "Young man, how do you know?" ā
Mu Xiu said lightly, "You can choose not to believe me, or you can go back now." ā
"Don't mind, we don't mean anything else, just curious." Xiang Anton hurriedly explained.
Mu Xiu didn't say anything more, and then found a place for them to dig a pit from there, but I watched from the sidelines as the overseer, and Mu Xiu sat aside to rest, I thought to myself, this guy is lazy too?
After about half an hour, Xiang Hanyu said loudly: "Dig it, dig it!" ā
Hearing this, everyone came up to see, Mu Xiu stood up and jumped down at once, after I threw down their bags, I asked Mu Xiu to catch me, and I jumped down with it.
When I saw what Xiang Hanyu had dug up, it was actually a stone tile, which looked very thick and large, and the first thing I thought of was that we were now on top of a house.
Sure enough, Mu Xiu instructed them to pry open the stone tiles, and then they saw that they were empty, and Qian Sheng lit a cold smoke and threw it down, and we clearly saw the incomparably magnificent situation below.
The cold smoke and flames kept falling down until they were ten meters away, and I couldn't help but think that this was too high, right? How do you go down?
At this time, the five people were already excited, because they saw a glorious palace below, and they all wanted to go down and make a lot of money.
Then I saw them getting busy, first tying up the pickaxe and the rope, then finding an uncle to wrap the rope around it several times, and then nailing it to the tree with a pickaxe.
Just as they were about to go down, Mu Xiu suddenly stopped them, and everyone looked at him in confusion, even I didn't understand what was wrong.
"Please don't be so impulsive in the future." Mu Xiu continued, "This place is not Biriah, there are crises everywhere. ā
"It's okay, it's okay, we can handle it." Xiang Anton looked impatient.
"Remember, you can't touch what is underneath this, and when you get to the place we are looking for, you can take it." Mu Xiu reminded.
"Yes, yes, yes." They nodded their heads.
I watched them go in one by one, and then I looked at Mu Xiu, meaning what should we do?
"You go down first." Mu Xiu told me.
"What?!" Shouldn't he have carried me down this time like he did last time?
"Hurry up!" Mu Xiu's tone was a little impatient.
I grabbed the rope and jumped down, after all, it was not as difficult to climb down as it was, and I went down quickly.
But just as I went down, the rope and the pickaxe were thrown down, and I couldn't help but be shocked, what did this Mu Xiu want to do? Is it possible to trap us here? But the next moment, I saw a heavy object jumping up, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when I saw clearly that it was Mu Xiu.
