Chapter 303: Stone Tablet
When I got up in the morning, I walked out of the tent, and looked down to see that it was more than six o'clock in the morning, everyone else was sleeping soundly, I looked down and looked at the footprints all over the ground, disorganized, and then looked at the array laid down last night, six of the eight soul locking nails had been scorched and lay on the ground, only two yellow talismans were still complete, but I could also see that they were crumbling and began to loosen. When I walked forward and looked at the soul rope, the copper coins had been scattered on the ground, and the rope had broken into several sections, which made me gasp, if those ghosts stayed a little longer last night, we would be finished.
I saw that a glimmer of light had slowly risen in the east direction, and in the morning the mountains were all over the wilderness, and the weeds and trees next to it were covered with dew, and when I saw this, I quickly went to the tent and got a bottle of mineral water to drink clean, and then I was busy among the weeds for a long time to collect most of the bottles of this rootless water, which is dew. Of course, both of my trouser legs were completely wet. Standing next to the tent and looking at the next few tents are surprisingly quiet, occasionally I can hear a few sounds of sleep, I can't bear to disturb them, after putting this bottle of rootless water, I came out here, found a higher place to sit down, in this beautiful place, I really want to stay quietly alone for a while, breathe fresh air, look at the mountains that slowly glow red in the distance, revel in this cloudy and misty fairyland, suddenly feel the whole person relaxed,
"Soon, Yuying, I'll be able to get you all back soon." I read silently in my heart, because I miss those days so much, I want to see all the people in the curtain to An Xiang Feixiang, but now they have forgotten our past.
A breeze blew, and I couldn't help but shiver, the morning in the mountains was still very cold, and just as I was about to get up to leave, a heavy coat was gently draped over my shoulders. I turned my head to look, and Makushu didn't look at me without looking at the place where the sun was rising in the distance, and slowly sat down next to me.
"Why don't you sleep more?" He turned his head to look at me. The face looked very flat, but there seemed to be a trace of tenderness in the tone, and at that moment I suddenly seemed to have entered a hallucination, as if I had seen the complete curtain repair before, so I suddenly stared at him blankly, and tears couldn't help but appear in my eyes.
"Hey, you're alright, Liangxi."
"Oh, I'm fine." I hurriedly responded, and then I didn't dare to look at him, but looked at the mountains that were getting brighter and brighter in the distance, to demonstrate my tense and embarrassment.
"How do you feel about last night's events?" Makushu asked leisurely.
"Maybe this time it's more dangerous than I thought." I said with a wry smile, and then looked at Mu Xiu, whose face was still unchanged suddenly twitched.
"It's true that, based on last night's situation, we could face more dangerous difficulties in the future. I need your help. ”
"Need my help?" I looked at Makushu in surprise, and I didn't expect that Makushu, who had always done his own thing, would take the initiative to extend an olive branch to me this time.
"Yes, among the eight people here, you and I know the art of Xuanhuang, and besides, you are still a different person, judging from the previous tomb robberies." When Makushu said this, he looked back at me and smiled, and that smile made me feel a little unfathomable.
"Okay." I was kind of surprised by Makushu's answer, but I was still a little disappointed. Because what he needs is not me, but my Xuanhuang technique, which can help him. Although this is understandable, who calls women and men think differently.
In this way, one morning in the deep mountains and old forests, Mu Xiu and I greeted the rise of recuperation, and the people in the tent also got up one after another to pack up their equipment when we greeted the sunrise, and they avoided talking about all the situations outside the tent, because everyone knew it, so why bother to say it, and add some excuses to others that they couldn't go on.
After packing up all the equipment, everyone ate dry food on the spot, and then chatted for a while, until the sun was completely out of the mountain, and the nearby fog had dispersed, and then they set off again in the direction of Zhongtai Mountain.
Because last night's rest was quite good, the speed of everyone today is also very fast, and after about four or five hours, you can already see the mountain range of Zhongtai Mountain clearly and completely. In the distance, the top of the mountain was already filled with fog.
"It's almost there, everyone's working hard." Makushu walked in front and shouted. About two hours or so of the trip to see a stone gatehouse in the distance, walked in to see only to find that the three words of Zhongtai Mountain were written on it with a red pen, everyone sat on the ground in ecstasy to rest, since it has arrived at the foot of Zhongtai Mountain, so it is not in a hurry to work in this moment, but did not sit down for long, suddenly He Zhirong, who had just said to urinate, suddenly ran over in a hurry, and shouted loudly:
"Come with me. Hurry up. "I look like I'm in a hurry, I can't do it.
"Uncle He, don't worry, just say it slowly, what's over there?" Seeing that He Zhirong was so anxious that he couldn't even speak, I thought he had encountered something bad, and I was nervous for a while. However, He Zhirong, who only listened, said even more excitedly:
"You'll find out if you come with me." As he spoke, he walked forward, and everyone was confused, so they took all their luggage and followed.
After walking about two or three hundred meters, after a sudden turn, a huge stone tablet was worn in front of me, only to see that it was engraved with "Zhongtai Cuiyan Peak, 2894 meters above sea level." ”
"I just peed and turned around and found this stele." He Zhirong said with a sigh of relief. "What's so surprising about this, isn't it just a stone stele, Lao He, you're going crazy," Xiang Anton looked at the stele and then at He Zhirong and quipped.
"What do you know, you thought I was stupid, you just came to see the back of the stele." He Zhirong glanced at Xiang An Dongdao. So everyone quickly went around to the back of the stele, and the people present turned pale in an instant, but I had some admiration for He Zhirong's performance just now.
I forgot to mention that this stele is very tall, and it looks like it is very old, about four or five meters high, and about 2 meters wide. However, only those few words were written on the front of the stele, and the forehead written on the back of the stele was really terrifying, and everyone stared at every terrible warning on the stele.
