Chapter 160: The Living Straw
Ask for an automatic monthly pass! Thanks to the crazy illiterate (three idiots and thieves) "Crane Hunting for the Dragon" reward, Xin Mida~
The next day, the weather was still fine.
The first to wake up was Sun Da, and there is no doubt that he was awakened by hunger.
He felt his head heavy, and it felt like he had had a long dream, and when he woke up, it felt blurry and clear.
He was curious, stood and thought seriously for a while, remembering the appearance of so many people, but unfortunately, he didn't know any of the people who appeared in his dream.
In a daze, he crawled over to find something to eat, rummaged through his bag, and found nothing.
"****, starving to death!"
Sun Da couldn't help but roar loudly, waking up Li Yixin and the ghost, they felt that something was wrong and hurriedly woke up the ancient words beside them.
"I'm dreaming, it's weird, what about you?"
The ghost was completely awakened by Sun Da's howl, and he felt that his dream was strange, so he asked them.
Gu Yan shook his head and let himself be completely awake before replying: "Maybe it's because of that ancient book, the dream is very strange."
Gu Yan was beating his head while looking around, and suddenly saw the sunshine in a place, so he shouted in surprise: "Why is it dawn again?"
"Yes, I remember that we didn't even eat lunch, and the old saying is that I'm starving to death now!"
Sun Da held his stomach pitifully, Yang Erwa looked at it and shouted: "Shushu, the book is gone!!"
"Alas, it's normal!"
The ghost sighed, feeling that Yang Erwa's appearance was simply a fuss.
So he patiently explained: "It may have told us everything it wanted to sue us and disappeared by itself."
"It's amazing, by the way, I saw a demon in my dream."
Li Yixin said happily, and then looked around again and became disappointed reads();. lowered his head and became very sad again, and whispered: "But, it's just in a dream, I still don't know where the demon has gone!"
"By the way, Gu Yan, I once heard that Su Hongmo say ghost and white moon in a dream. Changed his surname to Gu Ming. The word sun and moon. As the old saying goes, is that ghost your ancestor? Things are so weird! ”
Sister Yang also got up, and the strange thing was that they seemed to have slept on the ground all night. But there were no signs of dew on his body.
"That's right, and the Li Qingyi who left with the ghost, is it Yixin's ancestor?"
Zhu Wen was also puzzled, but he felt that his head was groggy. There was no damage to the body, and such a scene made Zhu Wen feel very strange.
This may be the reason why Gu Yan and Li Yixin have half of the bronze mirror. I guess."
"****, we don't even have a pot!"
Sun Da shouted again, interrupting what the ghost said, and the ghost hated being interrupted. He turned his head and glanced at Sun Da, and said casually: "If you lose it, you lose it, I think we are not far from going out."
"Really?"
Sun Da was overjoyed. This is great news.
If it weren't for the fear of being considered a pervert by others, especially the Golden Bell. He will really pick up the ghost and kiss the left and the right.
"Maybe I lost the pot because I wanted to sue us for this, hehe."
The ghost smiled very poorly, Sun Da hadn't reacted yet, but Gu Yan knew it and hurriedly played a round and said, "Let's go ahead, presumably we are not far from the outside."
The ghost ghost glanced at Gu Yan and asked, "Don't you think it's strange to throw the pot?"
"It doesn't matter if it's strange or not, the important thing is that I can go back early, I'm going to starve to death!"
The golden bell, who had not spoken much, also opened his mouth, with a painful face.
Sun Da smiled when he heard that the goddess supported his opinion like this, and began to feel sorry again, thinking that it was worth it to be hungry.
But they were not only hungry once, they seemed to have been hungry twice, they had not eaten the rice they had cooked at noon yesterday, and they woke up from a dream today and even the pot and rice were missing, which was the only ration they had left in this mountain.
It's terrible!
"Don't say anything, let's go!"
Yang Erwa stood up and shouted in disappointment, Li Yixin still sat on the ground and didn't want to leave, and said sadly: "I haven't found the demon yet."
"Yixin, let's go back first, I know how to find the demon, but you have to give me time."
Gu Yan comforted him, Li Yixin looked at him with joy on his face, and asked in surprise and disbelief: "Really?"
Gu Yan nodded seriously, and said helplessly: "If we all starve to death in this Maoling Mountain, then who can get the demon back for you?"
Gu Yan smiled, and he was also guessing in his heart that Su Hongmo's words in the dream must have some secret, but he still needed time to unravel it.
"Well, let's go back, I'm starving to death too, hehereads();."
Li Yixin smiled stupidly, Zhu Wen looked at her and wanted to say something but couldn't say anything, I don't know if he and Li Yixin will be passers-by from now on after they walk out of here?!
It was a very happy thing to go home, but it became a sad thing to go to Zhuwen.
Li Yixin was happy with anticipation, walking faster than before, and everyone was excited when they heard the ghost say that they were almost home, and they all hurried as fast as they could.
Along the way, everyone walked forward with laughter and laughter, telling jokes to relieve their hunger, fortunately, their pots and food were thrown away when they were about to leave Maoling Mountain, if it was before, it must have been a very, very terrible thing.
They counted the time, and the time crept slowly like a snail, from morning to noon, and then to dusk.
For the first time, they felt that time was slowing down
After their unremitting climb of the mountain, when the sun went down, they finally saw a wide road.
Sun Da has a phobia of the road, afraid that it is fake, but in fact, he is afraid of encountering some ghosts hitting the wall, so he squatted down and patted the dirt road with two hands.
Everyone thought it was true when they saw Sun Da like this, but before they had time to be happy, they saw a row of scarecrows not far in front of them, a row that didn't move at all, as if it was a scarecrow, with a shadow.
"Brother Gu Yan. What a lot of scarecrows. ”
Li Yixin pointed to the scarecrow not far in front of her and was surprised, she remembered that she didn't see any scarecrow when she just came up from the mountain.
"Could it be that I just read it wrong?"
Li Yixin was puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help but take a serious look at those scarecrows.
Gu Yan raised his right hand, pointed at the scarecrow in front of him with his right index finger and said with certainty: "That's not a scarecrow, it's a real person!!"
"Huh??"
Li Yixin and the others were surprised, the least surprised was the golden bell, the ghost should not be surprised.
He looked for it. It turns out that there is only one road from the mountain here. He had no choice but to take them out of here, otherwise they would really starve to death in the Maoling Mountain behind him, which was the last thing the ghost wanted to see.
"It's still the eldest young master of the Gu family who is shrewd enough!"
A few people suddenly came out of the face of a large tree. All of them were wearing masks, so I couldn't see them, and I didn't know who they were.
A man in a wheelchair is emaciated and covered by a mask. I don't know the face of the man.
A man in the back pushes a wheelchair, and the last man is more than 1.8 meters. They are tall and big, and they all wear masks and wear black clothes.
Seeing this qiē that suddenly appeared, Gu Yan was not so surprised, he did not answer the man's words. Just waiting for the man to speak.
Although they are surprised, they dare not speak, and it is better not to talk much in the face of people who do not know where they come from and do not know the purpose. Besides, they had been in Maoling Mountain for a while, and they had learned to be silent.
Only Sunda was so hungry and distraught that they didn't speak. Naturally, he didn't dare to speak, just shook his sore hand.
Everyone was silent, and the atmosphere was quiet and eerie.
The man in the wheelchair had no patience at all, and shouted at the ancient saying: "In ancient times, robbers would say: 'I planted this tree, and I opened this road; If you want to live from now on, keep the road money. 'How is it, the eldest young master of the Gu family?
I've been waiting for you here for more than a month, so hand over all the treasures you get! ”
Gu Yan still didn't speak, his head was running quickly, and he was silent thinking about countermeasures.
Sun Da, who was behind him, was upset and irritable, and he was too hungry to take care of it so much, so he couldn't help but shout dissatisfiedly: "We don't even have food to eat, what else do we have to treasure?" You've got something wrong with your brain! We don't know you, so let us go! ”
The more Sun Da spoke, the more excited he became, and he took two steps forward, Gu Yan felt that the situation was not good, so he quickly pulled Sun Da back behind him, and Sun Da looked at him inexplicably.
"I'm telling the truth, why are you pulling me?"
Gu Yan didn't answer, Sun Da didn't answer when he saw Gu Yan's face was stern, and he didn't dare to ask any more, just stared at the person in front of him in a wheelchair and the three men behind him who were stronger than him.
He silently counted the scarecrows lined up in front of him, no, there were twelve people, and there were four here for a total of sixteen people.
"We really didn't get any treasures."
Gu Yan replied seriously and affirmatively, looking at the person in the wheelchair and wondering in his heart whether this person was the person he suspected.
Who knew that the man didn't pay attention to the ancient saying, but turned his head and asked lightly: "Aren't you two coming back yet?" Do you want to die, or don't you want to live anymore? Yes? ”
This man is actually on fire, obviously not pleasing to Gu Yan here, and he doesn't dare to really anger Gu Yan, so he can only sprinkle his anger on the ghost and the golden bell.
The golden bell went forward, and Sun Da watched her leave, and he was disappointed from their ranks to the ranks of the enemy.
"So long she was lying to me!!"
Sun Da thought so sadly in his heart, wanted to cry, and was dizzy with hunger, but there were no tears.
The ghost ghost walked to Gu Yan's side, and then stretched out his hand to pull Gu Yan's hair, Gu Yan also felt inexplicable, seeing that the ghost ghost was also far away from him.
"The Ghost Son has betrayed our friendship and my trust in him after all!"
Gu Yan looked at the ghost ghost and the golden bell standing next to the man in the wheelchair, respectful, and they didn't dare to speak without the man's command.
Only behind Gu Yan did they see the movements of the ghost ghost, he actually left a note for Gu Yan, no wonder he had been hiding behind them just now.
"No baby? How can it be? I think you want to keep it to yourself, right?! ”
The man smiled coldly, not believing it at all and not wanting to get such an answer from Gu Yan, so he couldn't help but snort coldly.
After being silent for a while, he continued to say proudly: "You didn't expect that there would be two of my people by your side, right?" How much energy I have spent for the treasure of this Maoling Mountain, how can you send it away with a word!! ”
The man slapped the wheelchair hard, and the twelve living scarecrows took a few steps forwardreads();. Neat and well-trained, he stood behind the man, ready to go.
Now the ancient sayings they found out that this was not just a moving scarecrow, but also a scarecrow with a gun.
The muzzles of the twelve black holes were pointed at them, and Gu Yan knew that it was not a fake gun, and it was not a joke.
Li Yixin saw the twelve scarecrows wearing masks, and suddenly remembered her last Halloween. There are also some boys who wear masks. The mask was painted in a very red color, and blood scared the girls.
Artistic children love special things, and they all draw their favorite things, such as a hungry ghost skeleton who commits suicide. And Li Yixin just painted a face.
Seeing those twelve guns, I was also afraid in my heart, as long as they shot in one direction together, that person would turn into a hedgehog in an instant.
"Dead!"
They all thought so disappointedly. The ghost Golden Bell betrayed them hard enough, and now the man wanted to turn them into hedgehogs.
They would rather stay in the Cat Spirit Mountain without food. I don't want to be beaten into a hedgehog by strangers.
"And what do you want?"
Gu Yan asked calmly, he was also very scared in his heart, he brought them to Maoling Mountain, and he had the obligation to protect their safety.
Gu Yan's secretly clenched fists were already soaked with cold sweat. He tried not to let his fears infect them.
Seeing Gu Yan so calm, they thought in their hearts that maybe Gu Yan had a way to deal with those people, and they were much more comforted.
Although they know that they are deceiving themselves, it is good to have an expectation of their current situation of life and death.
"It's simple. The treasure of Maoling Mountain!! ”
The masked face smiled, in his senses. Gu Yan asked him this to mean that Gu Yan had compromised him.
"As I said, we didn't find any treasure in Maoling Mountain!"
Gu Yan reaffirmed, pretending to be indifferent, trying not to let the person on the other side feel his fear.
The man moved, and Gu Yan knew that the man didn't believe what he said, so Gu Yan continued: "If you don't believe it, you can ask the two people around you, they came with us all the way, and they know everything we say and do."
Gu Yan smiled slightly, this smile made the man in the mask very unhappy, and the golden bell next to him bent down and said something to the man, the man listened carefully for a while, and finally nodded when he saw him.
The ghost ghost kept looking at Gu Yan, unable to see the feelings in his heart, and felt that his face was cold, and Zizi made them feel very strange, just like the first time they saw him.
"The bell says you've found a treasure."
The man said with certainty, Gu Yan smiled again, thought about it for a while, and understood again.
He suddenly became very sad and regretful again, and pretended to sigh in a low voice: "It's a pity, we can't take it out, alas"
"What do you mean?"
The man's body trembled, and he hurriedly asked reads();.
Gu Yan didn't laugh anymore, still with a sad face, and replied: "There is a treasure on the big tree outside the ghost's cemetery, and the ghost and the golden bell must know very well, you can't get it, and we can't get it either."
The tree is so big, there is no way to take out the treasure of the noodles without moving it. If you move away, then the tree will fall down and die, I think you are so smart, you have already thought of it, haha"
Gu Yan suddenly laughed mockingly, Li Yixin wanted to ask but didn't ask, but Yang Damei didn't want to ask, in fact, she also saw it, but she didn't say it, such an obvious thing, anyone can see it.
Sun Da was frightened, it was good if he didn't pee his pants, so he naturally didn't dare to ask.
Yang Erwa and Zhu Wen didn't ask, Yang Xiaomei didn't understand what they were talking about at all, and she didn't know what those people were holding, and she didn't move when she saw that Yang Damei didn't move forward, and she looked obedient.
The result of the mocking laugh was to make the man get up from the wheelchair with a "whoosh-" sound, and then Li Yixin and the others were stunned.
"You're not crippled!"
Gu Yan smiled again, and before the man could speak, he took the lead and said, "How about our different ways and different purposes, are you interested in making a deal with me?" Maybe I can open the treasure of the tomb."
"What?"
The man asked lightly, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, knowing that the gaffe was immediately correct, he said coldly: "Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate a deal with me?" I can turn you into hedgehogs in minutes. ”
"You won't."
Gu Yan calmly interrupted him, and now he had guessed ten times in his heart, just waiting for the final temptation.
"Okay, so tell me why I have to trade with you? I'm looking forward to it! ”
"That's enough."
Gu Yan stretched out his right hand as he spoke, bent his five fingers inward to make a gesture of nodding his hand, and then tilted it to the side in his sleeve, and the five fingers together stirred up a few more times.
"It's your name, I'm not mistaken!"
After Gu Yan finished laughing again, the man stood up in surprise and asked, "How do you know?"
"I can know that Gu Ling will know in the future, no doubt, you should know very well that Gu Ling has been taking care of the Gu family, and her IQ is much higher than mine.
You can beat us into hedgehogs now, but you will die worse than us in the future! That's good enough, right? How about it, are you interested in considering us working together? ”
Gu Yan said lightly, seeing the change in the man's movements in front of him, he knew that the matter was more than half, and his heart was a lot easier, but he still didn't dare to take it lightly.
Yang Damei and Li Yixin heard the ancient words mention the ancient spirit to that person, presumably that person knew the ancient spirit, so he was also the person who knew the ancient words, and they felt much safer when they thought about it.
Silence, silence, silence.
After half a ring, the man spoke.
"In that case, if you state your trading conditions, I can still consider it." (To be continued.) )
