There was a long silence.

In silence, the thick-lipped woman next to the long-haired woman limped up and handed out dye and paper.

The long-haired woman took it, quickly dyed the seal with dye, printed it on the paper, carefully identified it, and sure enough, she saw what Richard said: Blue is water, red is fire, water and fire are combined, and both are indispensable.

"Whew-"

The long-haired woman took a deep breath, put everything away to the thick-lipped woman, looked back at Richard, and said, "It seems that you have some information that we don't know. ”

"In the same way, I believe you also have some information that I don't know. "So, if you want to use this seal as a key to explore the ancient ruins where the wizard thangka left clues, our cooperation is the best option." ”

"Ancient ruins? Do you even know about ancient ruins? The long-haired woman whispered, her expression slightly surprised but not exaggerated, as if she had been mentally prepared. After a few seconds, the long-haired woman shook her head lightly: "I'm afraid of this, I can't promise you." ”

"Why?" asked Richard, raising his eyebrows slightly.

The long-haired woman replied: "First, I don't know where you come from, and your joining is a hidden danger to me. Second, to explore the ancient ruins, we have made all the preparations, and we can do it without you joining us. ”

"But are you sure you can enter the ruins without this red seal in my hand?" or are you going to snatch the red seal from me?" asked Richard as he looked at the long-haired woman, smiled, and seemed to be joking.

"Nope. The long-haired woman shook her head, her long hair fluttering in the wind, "I won't do anything to you, let alone snatch the seal from your hand." Because, according to my information, all you need is a blue seal to open the ancient ruins. ”

"Are you sure? Have you forgotten the words on the seal you just found?"

"This—I've thought about it. The long-haired woman said in a long voice.

"But just a few minutes ago, you didn't know the content of the text. Richard reminded.

Long-haired woman: "......" expression is a little unnatural.

There was a long silence again.

"Whew-ho-"

After a few seconds, the long-haired woman took a deep breath, looked at Richard and said seriously, "The words on the seal in my hand are not exactly described, I don't think that, like you said, you have to have two seals together to open the ancient ruins, maybe referring to the rest of the things." After all, you can't prove it. ”

"Proof it...... Actually, it's a good proof. Richard raised his eyebrows and said, "Simple, there are two ways: first, I go to the ruins with you, open them with two seals, and if I succeed, it means that I am right; At that time, maybe you can contact me again for cooperation. ”

The woman listened and lowered her head in thought. Grabbing a strand of hair with his right hand, he slowly combed it to the end, as if sorting out his thoughts, and then raised his head again.

"If I could, I would choose the second way of proof. The woman said.

Richard chuckled: "Sure enough, you don't trust me, but that's normal, and I respect your choice." However, I would like to ask, how do we get in touch?"

The woman's eyelashes moved, and she reached out and pulled out a white handkerchief from her bosom.

Next to him, the strong man who was grumpy and wanted to attack Richard saw the Rapunzel's actions, and he was a little excited and tried to stop him: "Gong...... Don't trust this guy so easily, what if he has a bad purpose?"

"I know what to do. The woman glanced sideways at the strong man and said, no longer explaining, threw away the handkerchief, and the handkerchief spun away and flew towards Richard.

Richard reached out to catch it, and saw that the handkerchief was embroidered with intricate magic patterns with gold and silver threads, which was obviously a spell prop.

"What exists on the handkerchief is a special communication imprint, which is unique to me and cannot be impersonated by others. The long-haired woman spoke up and explained to Richard, "Now, I'll take my men and see if I can enter the ruins alone." If not, then I'll contact you, and the lines on it will be three shiny and scorching. After you receive it, come back here within twenty-four hours, and we'll talk. ”

"Yes. Richard nodded, then thought for a few seconds, and then added, "I hope you can do this in three days, and besides, even if you are not prepared to cooperate with me, give me another signal." After all, I don't want to wait forever. Is that okay?"

"Absolutely, it's a reasonable request. The long-haired woman did not refuse, and said reasonably, "As you wish, I will complete all this in three days." When the time comes, even if I'm not prepared to cooperate with you, I'll make the imprint on the handkerchief react. Specifically, all the lines will shine and burn at the same time, and they will be burned directly. ”

"I hope not. Richard said.

"Well, I'm the opposite. The long-haired woman chuckled, half polite and half cold, "I hope that is the best outcome, after all, I don't like people who have plans to share what I have predetermined a long time ago." ”

"Okay. Richard spread his hands, did not continue to argue on this topic, and took a deep breath, "Then I will have a chance to contact you later, I wish you a good night, see you later." ”

After the words fell, Richard bowed his upper body slightly, his body quickly faded, and disappeared from the sight of the long-haired woman and his party.

"Wind!"

The long-haired woman spoke quickly and gave a command to the lame thick-lipped woman next to her.

The thick-lipped woman nodded, grabbed the air in front of her with both hands, listened intently for a long time, and said loudly: "Let's go, the wind tells me that he has completely left this area." ”

When the words fell, the thick-lipped woman looked at the long-haired woman and asked, "Captain, look, we are ...... now What to do?"

The long-haired woman closed her eyes, and after a few seconds, she opened them again, and made a decision: "Take a break, and then set off to the destination to see if it is true, as the guy said, the seal obtained from the tomb cannot open the ruins alone." ”

"Good. The crowd nodded.

"Nope. At this time, the white-haired old man wearing a black iron mask suddenly heard from under the mask, and made a different suggestion, "Captain, we had better set off immediately. ”

"Huh?" the long-haired woman looked inquiring.

The white-haired old man explained: "You just said that after the signal was sent, you would meet that person here twenty-four hours away, to a certain extent, it can be regarded as revealing the scope of the ruins—within our day and night journey.

I suspect that the person after that asked you to complete this within three days was for further testing. In this case, even if we deliberately delayed sending the signal, he was sure that the ruins were within a day and a half of the journey.

Although this range is still very large, we don't know how many clues that person has after all, and if we are one step late, we will be preempted by the other party, and it will be broken. ”

The long-haired woman's eyes widened after hearing this, and she looked at the white-haired old man with some reproach: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" When I spoke, why didn't you stop me, I just shook my head and shook my head. ”

"I'm ......," the white-haired old man was silent, and after a few seconds he said in a faint voice under the mask, with a little shame, "I'm old, my brain is not flexible, and I can't think through everything all the time, these are the things I just thought of." Actually, if I could be thoughtful all the time, we wouldn't be the same as we are now. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere became a little depressing.

The long-haired woman's expression became extremely complicated, and after a few seconds, she waved her hand vigorously and forcibly changed the subject: "Okay, don't say these useless things." This exploration of the ruins is to change the previous mistakes. Now, cheer up and set off immediately, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

"Yes. Everyone responded in unison.
