At this time, everyone was full of food and drink, and the spirit was very full, Uncle Wu got up and looked at the sky, there was still a little hour before it was dark, so he told everyone to quickly clean up and continue to hurry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When everyone heard this, they quickly took their luggage, pulled the carriage and hurried on.

I'm still thinking about what Uncle Wu told me about his past experience just now, and I feel a lot. Everyone is growing up slowly in misfortune, and then they found their own way, as for which way to go, often not you want to choose to go on, in the dark fate has long been arranged, you go wrong, you can only start from the beginning, after wandering, will eventually enter the arrangement of fate.

On this part of the road, everyone was silent, even the beggar who liked to talk the most on weekdays did not say anything, and kept riding a horse in front of the team to lead the team in a hurry.

Unconsciously, the sky has slowly darkened, we have traveled all the way to forty or fifty miles, but we did not find any villages and towns where we can stay overnight.

At this moment, I was also a little hesitant, whether I should continue to move forward at such an hour, Uncle Wu saw me like this, and said with a smile: "Now that night is coming, the road conditions ahead are not clear, and there are three unwritten rules in our business: one is not to walk at night, the second is not to take the road of life, and the third is not to go on the uncertain road!" ”

"This rule is really interesting, isn't it just a matter of rushing and delivering goods, and there is such a thing?"

Uncle Wu said solemnly: "Although there are no explicit provisions for this rule, it is formed through the accumulation of generations or even dozens of generations of ancestors, which naturally makes sense. Now that it's approaching night, it seems that we are first faced with the rule of not going to the first night, since we don't know whether to go or stay now, I think it's better to decide by divination! ”

After Uncle Wu finished speaking, he took out the package from behind his back, opened the package, and took out a box wrapped in yellow silk satin from inside.

Uncle Wu carefully opened the brocade, and a delicate box full of antiquity was presented in front of me, full of some ancient characters and strange patterns. Uncle Wu carefully opened the ancient box, and there were three pieces of tortoise shell lying quietly in the ancient box.

A piece of tortoise shell is engraved with hieroglyphs, one is engraved with 28 constellations, and one is engraved with the 64 hexagrams of Fuxi. Uncle Wu lifted the ancient box to the top of his head, silently chanted something in his mouth, and then shook it lightly three times, looking at Uncle Wu's appearance, he was extremely devout to this ancient box.

After a while, Uncle Wu slowly opened the ancient box, and the three tortoise shells inside had already been out of order, and the tortoise shells that were full of words and patterns just now were now dim, but there were three patterns that were slightly shining.

I was amazed to see all this, and although I believed that there was a truth in the theory of asking divination, it was not difficult to express the surprise of seeing this scene with my own eyes.

Uncle Wu put away the ancient box, saw that I was still staring at the box without blinking, and said to me with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing surprising about this, just to give myself psychological comfort!" ”

"Uncle Wu, this thing of yours is not a mortal thing, it must be a rare divination artifact in the world!"

"Your kid's eyesight is not bad, but this thing is not a modern thing, I once went out to receive the goods accidentally discovered, and I bought it at a very high price, and now I just use it for my own amusement, the mystery is too deep, I can't understand it for many years!" Uncle Wu said with a smile.

"What do you mean by the tortoiseshell's instructions just now?" I asked hurriedly.

"Didn't you just see it, clearly, do you still ask me? You understand more than I do! Uncle Wu said.

Yes, just now I did see a woman's hieroglyphs, the ghost of the Southern Vermilion Bird Seven Houses, and the Tianfeng Hexagram: the content of the three tortoise shells of the upper and lower Xun. But what does this mean, I fell into deep contemplation for a while.

Uncle Wu saw that I was pondering for a long time and was puzzled, so he came over to me and said, "You don't have to force things in the world, just let it be!" ”

I suddenly realized, Uncle Wu said the same, if I am entangled in these things, I am afraid that we are really going to sleep in the wild tonight, the brothers are waiting on the side, looking at the time before it gets dark, and then go a little ahead, anyway, this place is definitely not suitable for spending the night in this place with high mountains and dense forests, so I called my brothers and continued to move forward.

We hurried along the main road, riding on the trail, but at some point the fog rose, and it was hazy for a few meters ahead.

I rode on my horse and rode ahead quickly, hoping to see if I could find a suitable place to spend the night in the afterglow of the night. I walked alone for about half an hour, and suddenly, vaguely, I noticed that there was a high platform not far from the roadside, and the surrounding terrain was flat, and there were a few broken walls that could barely block the wind, but it was a good place to rest at night.

I saw that the road ahead was long and I didn't want to miss such a good place again, so I decided to ride back to the convoy immediately. After a while, I met the convoy that came in a hurry, and I told Uncle Wu about the situation, and Uncle Wu also felt that it was very agreeable, so he immediately followed me and led everyone to the high platform.

But the strange thing is that we walked for about a stick of incense, and we didn't find the place I just found.

This is really strange, it stands to reason that I only walked half a column of incense just now, thinking that the convoy is heavy and heavy, and it is reasonable to go slowly, so I didn't think much about it. Sure enough, I didn't go out a hundred meters away when I vaguely saw the high platform.

After the guys put the convoy goods in place, they quickly set up tents, lit bonfires, and cooked on fires, while Uncle Wu looked at the terrain around him, and after a while, Uncle Wu said with a little doubt: "Tiancheng, I have walked this road dozens of times, how come I have never seen such a place?" ”

"Maybe it's new?" I replied.

"New? Look at this place, where there are traces of new construction, it feels a bit like ancient times! Uncle Wu said suspiciously.

"Uncle Wu, don't think about it too much, let's stay here for one night, leave early tomorrow morning, and arrange two more brothers to keep vigil at night, and there won't be any bandits and robbers in this barren mountain and wilderness, right?" I laughed and said.

Uncle Wu shook his head, looking very impatient, and now he was afraid that it was the only way, so he went to cook with the guys.

I had nothing to do, so I went to this high platform to walk around, but the architectural pattern and geographical location of this high platform are very special, very unlike modern things. The base of the high platform is a square base, the bluestone bricks are very thick, and the bricks are glued together with a mixture of glutinous rice and grass ash.

The buildings of such an age, thousands of years later, there are still these traces, you can imagine how strong it was before.

It's just this age......

"Tiancheng, it's time to eat!" Uncle Wu shouted in the distance.

Uncle Wu's words disrupted my thoughts. At this point, the meal was ready, so I didn't think much about it and walked over. I didn't expect to find that everyone in this barren mountain and wilderness still prepared such a rich dinner, there was meat and soup, drinking hot broth, eating hot noodles, this place is really delicious!

Everyone swept the wind and clouds, and ate a large pot of noodles in one go, and they were all full and hiccuped. The beggar was picking at the shredded meat between his teeth, and muttered to himself: "The moon and stars are rare, there is meat and food, this kind of life is more leisurely than the gods......

"Hahaha......"

The beggar's words actually amused everyone!

After the meal, I talked with the others for a while, and then I decided to go and rest, leaving the brothers who were on vigil, and then we all went back to the tents to sleep.

I discussed with Uncle Wu that the brothers should not keep vigil if they worked hard all the way, and the beggars would keep vigil on the eve of the night, and I would come to the vigil after the night, and everyone else would go to sleep. At first, Uncle Wu didn't agree to it, saying that how could I do this kind of standing guard, saying that there were so many people, and that I would not be allowed to keep vigil or something like that, so I could say it anyway, so I persuaded Uncle Wu.

After all, I was a beggar and two young people, and there was nothing wrong all the way, and it was not a big deal if I didn't sleep for a night or two. And the brothers have to drive very hard during the day, and Uncle Wu is old, so we can't talk about this kind of thing if we don't do it. Besides, the beggar and I are both idlers, and we didn't do much help along the way, so naturally we have to do something meaningful for the caravan, right?

The beggar also readily agreed, and after we made up our mind, everyone went into the tent to sleep, and I hurried into the tent to sleep for a while, and then I got better and changed to the beggar for the night.

As soon as I lay down, my mind was full of thoughts, and before I knew it, I fell asleep.

A cold wind blew, and I couldn't help but shiver, and suddenly woke up from my dream, and then I remembered that I was going to change guards with the beggar, and immediately turned over and got out of the tent.

There was silence all around, and the beggar had fallen asleep on the stone beside him. Seeing this, I was so angry that I could not laugh or cry at the beggar, and the next morning I was determined to educate and criticize him for his dereliction of duty, so I carried the beggar back to the tent, and I began to keep vigil myself.

After a while, the cold wind blew so cold that I couldn't sit still, so I added some dry wood to the campfire and used it myself to ward off the cold. After a while, I felt that the breath in my body was smooth, and my body gradually warmed up.

Seeing that there was no one around, he came to the grass alone, and drank too much soup last night, which would be good, so he had to walk not far to make it easier.

The moment I turned my head, I froze in place.

I slowly came out of my state of fear......

The high platform, which really existed just now, disappeared without a trace. What appeared in front of me at this moment was a solemn palace of Zhuang Ya.

I rubbed my eyes vigorously, thinking that I was dazed by the drowsiness, but no matter how big I opened my eyes, the palace in front of me was really in front of me.

I can't be dreaming, am I?

I pinched myself hard, and the pain immediately spread to my brain, and then I confirmed that this was indeed not a dream, but a real thing!

I was at a loss for a moment, and I didn't know what to do. Now, whether it's a palace or a high platform in the wilderness, I have to go and find out that my brothers are now gone without a trace!

So I plucked up my courage, turned my heart aside, and went straight to the palace.

This palace is magnificent from a distance, and under a closer look, in fact, the level of construction technology and skill is still relatively simple, and like this shape and style, it is different from the architecture of any ancient dynasty, and it has more or less the characteristics of ancient ethnic minorities.

While thinking about it, I had come to the gate of the palace, and I was just about to step on the steps and walk in, but unexpectedly, the gate of the palace slowly opened, and a general wearing silver scale armor, a red tasseled battle helmet, multicolored riding boots, and a full moon sword at his waist walked out. I suddenly gasped, and an ancient female general suddenly appeared in this barren mountain range, this kind of scene is really chilling!
