Ten days later, Guo Yang went to find Duanmu Niu.

The three tortoise shells were ignored by Guo Yang for two or three days, and they were always thrown into a pile of tattered debris.

It wasn't until dawn on the fourth day that Guo Yang dreamed of the three tortoise shells.

The ancient and difficult words on the tortoise shell suddenly came to life, and they were transformed into three clear and audible mantras, which seemed to be divination and martial arts.

These three mantras are looming, difficult to read, but it seems that every word clearly penetrates Guo Yang's ears and heart.

Later, the words on the tortoiseshell shattered and turned into a large cloud of pale golden fragments, each of which seemed to contain a few other phrases.

In short, Guo Yang didn't understand those words.

He looked at the glittering fragments of words in bewilderment, and for a moment he didn't know if he had fallen into the tortoiseshell's dream, or if the tortoiseshell had entered his dream.

The golden light permeated the entire thatched hut, making Guo Yang's breathing a little difficult.

He struggled to get to his feet and grab the fragments of the words.

With a "bang", Guo Yang's head slammed into the wall, smashed down a burst of mud, and fell down with a bang.

Guo Yang woke up, only to find himself clutching three badly damaged tortoise shells in his hands.

It turned out that when Guo Yang came back from practicing the knife, he picked up the three pieces of tortoise shell, and planned to study them before sleeping. Unexpectedly, he practiced the knife for more than two hours, but he was so exhausted that he fell asleep with three pieces of tortoise shell.

With the faint light before dawn, Guo Yang carefully played with the three tortoise shells for a while, and unexpectedly found that the words on the tortoise shells would slowly absorb the light of dawn!

Moreover, as time passed, a faint wisp of almost imperceptible dark red appeared in those words, which seemed to follow a certain pattern and flow slowly.

This surprised Guo Yang.

It took him seven or eight days to get a clue. This tortoiseshell text, after absorbing sunlight or moonlight, will appear a wisp of dark red lines, and there are pale golden flame-like lines appear at the same time, which looks very weird.

Guo Yang didn't recognize any of those words, but he had a strong premonition that it should be three sentences of exercises.

"Cow, where did you get those tortoise shells?" Guo Yang saw Duanmu Niu and asked in a low voice.

"What, what did you find? I knew you were going to come to me. Duanmu Niu said with a smile.

"How many more do you have here?" Guo Yang asked a little impatiently.

Duanmu Niu lowered his voice and said, "I picked it up in an ancient ruin." There seemed to be a monster inside, and I only found three pieces, and I didn't dare to go into the deepest part. Would you like to take a trip together? ”

When Guo Yang heard this, his heart was beating, and he also lowered his voice and said, "Don't die?" I didn't dare go. ”

Duanmu Niu looked left and right and said, "You have practiced martial arts, so I will find you!" ”

Guo Yang stood up suddenly, stared at Duanmu Niu, and was speechless for a long time.

The Zhou people strictly forbade the recalcitrant people of Shang to practice martial arts, and if this matter spread, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Looking at Duanmu Niu's breezy appearance, Guo Yang already had evil thoughts in his heart. However, there was no show on his face.

"Alright, nervous! I'm not that kind of person. Otherwise, when I see the baby, I still want to take you along? Duanmu Niu seemed to sense the killing intent in Guo Yang's heart, but he still said calmly.

"Niu, don't dare to talk nonsense about this matter, it's going to die!" Guo Yang squatted down again, pretending to look at the sundries on the stall, and whispered a warning.

"Rest assured. I'm not a sub-trader. Duanmu Niu smiled and said.

"Isn't that far away? I can still make bronze during the day. Guo Yang asked.

Duanmu Niu stretched out his finger and wrote the word "Zi" on the ground, and when Guo Yang nodded to show that he understood, he erased the handwriting and said, "West of the village, Qianhe." ”

Guo Yang was silent for a while, then went back with a basket.

……

It was night, and it was dark.

Guo Yang hid the knife close to his body and quietly touched out of Lijiamen Village.

Like a vigilant fox, he first probed around to make sure that there was no one else, and then quietly came to the river.

"Sheep." In the pile of stones by the river, Duanmu Niu found Guo Yang and greeted him in a low voice.

Guo Yang leaned on his waist and tiptoed over.

"On the other side of the river, in a sinkhole more than 30 miles to the southwest." Duanmu Niu, dressed in black, got out of the crack in the stone and threw a small burden to Guo Yang.

"Dress in black, put it on."

Guo Yang was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize that he was acting at night, and he was wearing a white cloth linen clothes, and he couldn't help but admire this Duanmu cow a little.

The ancestors of the merchants believed that the five elements belonged to gold, so their clothes were mostly white. Especially the blood relatives of the royal family, even under the high pressure of the Zhou people, they regard white as beauty, in order to miss their homeland.

At first, the Zhou people, who considered themselves the five elements of fire, tried to force the merchants to wear the red clothes they admired as well, but they were met with unprecedented resistance, and the Zhou royal family eventually gave up their efforts, and the merchants wore white clothes.

After changing into a black night suit, Duanmu Niu took Guo Yang to walk downstream of the river, and it seemed that this was not the first time he had walked this road.

The two teenagers walked along the river for an hour before quietly crossing the river.

In the darkness, they walked deep and shallow, and had to keep an eye on the patrols of the Zhou people on the west bank. It is said that in a radius of two or three hundred miles on the west bank alone, eight of the most elite divisions of the Zhou people were stationed.

"Here we are." Duanmu Niu suddenly whispered.

Guo Yang looked around, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see where they had arrived at all.

He secretly regretted that he shouldn't have rushed into a dangerous place so rashly. But at the same time, he was very excited, and with an unprecedented curiosity, he followed Duanmu Niu to a low-lying place.

Guo Yang roughly felt that this was a huge natural depression, and the further down he went, the wetter it became. Even, bursts of gloomy and cold breath whirled, making his hair stand on end.

After walking down for half an hour, a large number of bones began to appear under his feet, including animal bones and human bones, and blue ghost fire appeared from time to time in the darkness.

"Cow, this place is weird!" The more Guo Yang walked, the more suspicious he became, and he couldn't help but whisper.

"This place is the territory of the Zhou people, and it should have been discovered, but for some reason, those Zhou people avoided this place like snakes and scorpions. Once, I was chased by two Zhou soldiers and came in by mistake. ”

As he spoke, Duanmu Niu squatted down, took out two "monazine stones", and began to rub and knock on them "pop-pop-".

Guo Yang also squatted down and spread his clothes to cover the wind.

"Boom", the moxa quilt was lit.

Duanmu Niu skillfully took out a peculiar bronze vessel with a small handle, and above the handle was a gourd-shaped copper dendrobium, from which several wicks protruded from the gourd's mouth.

Duanmu Niu lit the wicks.

Suddenly, with a strong smell of mutton fat, a small piece of light appeared in front of the two teenagers.
