8. Mi Ye's questioning
After glaring at me, Mi Ye stopped opening the wooden box and looked at Brother Neng in the distance. He took the wooden box from my hand, held it in his arms, and quickly retreated a foot away.
Mi Ye, who was holding the wooden box, looked at us coldly, and then said, "Who are you?" ”
I came back to my senses from her actions and it seemed that she had discovered something. Brother Neng and I exchanged glances, although we had given up the treasure hunt before, but after the conversation between the two people outside the valley, the stone by the fire pond that was quickly put away, and of course, the most important thing was the stone box found under the foundation. Our already extinguished treasure hunt has been ignited again.
Of course, on the surface, I still replied very calmly: "We are tourists who come to Daoren Mountain." Miss Miye, what's wrong with you? ”
Mi Ye looked at me and said, "You lie, his eyes are so obvious, and you also have a problem with the eyes of the wooden box, first I felt extremely shocked, and then a little pity, but in the end it seemed to show a very appreciative expression." ”
"Oh no, am I really that obvious?" I asked myself in my heart.
"Miss Miye, don't guess, we're here to travel, but because we say that we are in the entertainment business, our eyes will inevitably be a little straight when we see old things." Brother Neng said.
Mi Ye looked at the two of us, still very vigilant. The atmosphere fell into awkwardness. Mi Ye held the wooden box in his arms and slowly stepped back.
After a while, she said, "I promised Grandpa to send you out, you can rest here for a while now, and when the sun goes down, I will come to you and take you out." ”
With that, she sprinkled a handful of red powder and quickly ran towards the valley. Brother Neng and I quickly stepped back to the other side, not daring to touch a little bit of that powder, for fear that it would be some kind of terrible Gu poison. watched Mi Ye disappear on the other side of the valley.
"~ What now?" Brother Neng said.
"Alas~ It seems that we can only wait, didn't she say that she would send us out at night." I said as I looked at the dissipating red powder.
Brother Neng sat on the ground with his ass; "Then I don't know if she'll come back, and is it really okay to let her take the box with her? The clue to a little treasure just now is suddenly gone, what do you think is going on? ”
I also found a shady place to sit down: "Come on, let's still pray that she can come back and take us out, the treasure matter can only depend on fate, after all, life is important." ”
Brother Neng took out two Snickers from his backpack and handed me one. We were all a little hungry after all this tossing and turning, so we ate the last bit of water in the kettle and ate the Snickers that Brother Nengge handed me.
While eating, he looked at the other end of the valley: "Hey~ Brother Neng, where did they bring you to this village?" ”
Brother Neng thought for a while: "I brought it out of a thatched hut in the village, not to mention that they are all insects." ”
I looked at Brother Neng and felt incredible: "No, Brother Neng, are you mistaken?" ”
Brother Neng stood up, looked at it, pointed to the ruins farthest away from here and said, "Nuo~ That's there, I remember it very clearly, I was brought from there." The room was full of bugs, and there was no furniture in it. ”
Hearing what Brother Neng said, I also told me about my situation.
After hearing this, Brother Neng said, "Are you saying that you brought it from the other side of the valley, and the one you are in is a stone chamber where you can see the sunset?" There is a long road when you come out? ”
I nodded, "Yes, but why separate us?" We said we were caught together. ”
"Look at your hands!" Brother Neng suddenly jumped to the side and asked.
I stretched out my hand, and the totem that I couldn't erase was gone. "Brother Neng, the totem is gone?"
Brother Neng took my hand again, looked at it carefully, and said to me after confirming it again and again: "I think we must be separated because of this thing, and that place must be the secret of this village." ”
After listening to Brother Neng's words, I somewhat understood: "But what is that totem?" Why can they eliminate its existence? ”
"Why do you talk so much? If you don't know if you look at it, maybe you can find some other treasures? Brother Neng picked up the backpack on the ground and said to me.
I think so, there must be some secret in that corridor. We strapped our backpacks and walked quickly to the place. On the way, I was still a little worried, those two people burned the village like this, do the stone chambers and the corridor that locked me still exist?
Soon we came to the hillside, and the morning sun had not yet reached the place, and it felt cold. But in the memory that I and Brother Neng searched for a long time, there was no trace of the hole I walked out of, and there was no trace of the window I saw in the stone room.
"Xiao Linzi, you can't be dreaming, there is no trace of what you said here? Or on the opposite hillside? Brother Neng asked while looking for it.
I watched all of this, a little overwhelmed, I remember this hillside, and the sunset was coming from the other side. I shook my head at Brother Neng: "Now I don't even know what's true?" But my memory is from here, and I remember clearly the way those people took me from here to that house, and the way up here from below is exactly the same as I remember. But why I couldn't find the hole, I also wondered. ”
Brother Neng patted me on the shoulder and said, "Xiaolinzi, don't worry, I believe in you, but all kinds of things that happened along the way, we can't deduce according to common sense, maybe this place is the same as the stone box opened by the girl in Miye." ”
Hearing Brother Neng say that, I think this is a train of thought, maybe there really is some mechanism, I nodded to Brother Neng, and began to carefully search the hillside in front of me according to my memory, and Brother Neng also searched carefully. I checked it little by little, and soon, a smooth stone appeared in front of us, and I quickly called Brother Neng over: "Brother Neng, look? ”
Brother Neng came over: "What's the matter, isn't it just a stone, don't think it's the same as the one Mi Ye took when you see the stone." ”
I walked up to the stone and said to Brother Neng, "No, this valley is full of fallen leaves, there are no bare stones at all, and there is no river here, how can there be such smooth stones, and you can see that there is a small gap between this stone and the soil next to it." ”
After listening to this, Brother Neng also hurried to the side of the stone, and after reading it, he nodded to me.
I reached over to the stone and slammed it hard.
