Chapter 176: The Plan for Observing the Heavens
The four of us reached a consensus almost at the same time, that is, to go out first, and then talk about it, and now this place is absolutely unacceptable.
Let's not talk about whether the big brother of the yellow eel will suddenly change his mind and attack us, just the captain who is still lurking in the lake, he alone is not an easy person to deal with.
When we came to the stone gate, we first carried the two injured guys out, and when I went in alone to get the two searchlights, the stone gate behind me actually closed with a "click".
"Jar!"
After I finished shouting, I felt the vibration of the jar kicking the door, but the stone door was so thick that whether it was the movement of the jar kicking the door or their shouting, it had become very weak when it reached me.
I quickly looked at the pool in the distance, but the woman inside was gone.
The captain didn't know where to hide, the big yellow eel didn't come up, all the flatfish people were nowhere to be found, and now it seemed like I was the only one in the whole huge cave.
"Senior brother."
Suddenly, someone called me sweetly.
I followed the sound and looked over and noticed that behind a cave rock on my right, a face I was all too familiar with peeked out.
It's actually watching the sky!
I'm a little overwhelmed, when the hell did he hide here?
Could it be that the face I saw in Llama Lake before was not just like him, it was really her?
"Why are you here......" I asked.
Guantian stepped out of the cover of the rock and stood there pretty, "I'm here to collect the debt." β
Accounts receivable?
After thinking about it for a long time, I remembered that Guantian was an apprentice of the sword man on credit, and a disciple of the six evil ways of the credit family, I am afraid that he had left some proverbs here on credit before, and he came to collect the accounts of the year yesterday.
"You've taken a knife here on credit before?" I asked.
Guantian nodded playfully, "Well, yes, I have two knives on credit here, but not on credit, but on credit from my master." β
"Then what kind of proverb did your master leave back then?"
Guantian took a few steps closer to me, held his head high as if he was reminiscing, and said after a moment: "When the aquatic products in your village are more than people, come and take the knife money of the year." β
I instantly thought of the big yellow eel that was still in the lake at the moment, and the group of flatfish people who didn't know where to hide.
Could it be that the credit knife man is really so powerful, can he really make a prophecy, and everything described in his mouth will become a reality one day......
"And a knife?" Guantian pointed to the kitchen knife in my hand and said.
I looked at the old but still sharp kitchen knife in my hand in amazement, "This is the kitchen knife that your master gave out on credit back then?" β
"That's right, it's really my master's craft."
I looked at this kitchen knife, and thought about the monster in this cave, and immediately felt that the master of Guantian was so hateful, he cursed this peaceful village like this just for the money of two kitchen knives.
"Guantian, I don't know the subtleties of your sect, but if these flatfish people and that yellow eel are caused by your proverbs. Don't you think that's hateful? Just for the money of two kitchen knives, these monsters were created, resulting in so many people being tortured like they never imagined in their lives. β
"Is it hateful?" Guan Tian smiled sweetly, "We are all new socialist youths, I think these superstitious things, you should look at them dialectically." β
Guantian walked up to me and reached out to get the kitchen knife, and I quickly took a step back.
To be honest, although she is nominally my junior sister, I can't trust her, and the slightest bit of trust doesn't exist.
"Senior brother, the flatfish man you are talking about is actually called the flower-faced sole, you can call it a flounder, but it is much more magical than the flounder you know. There is also that big yellow eel, it is called the narrow wolf, I don't know if you have heard of the narrow wolf corpse burial hall, which is the bureau that uses its corpse to cloth. β
Narrow wolf corpse?
I'm impressed!
Once, when I first met Yan Feitang in the Burial Gu Hall, she told me this
ββAccording to legend, in the battle of King Wu's invasion of Muye, the Zhou coalition army completely defeated the 170,000 army of the king of Shang with only less than 50,000 troops.
Folklore has it that because someone built a burial hall on the road from Luoyang to Mengjin, and a narrow wolf corpse was cast in it, which weakened the strength of the army of the Shang king.
I always thought that the narrow wolf corpse was a strange-looking wolf, who knew that it was actually a big yellow eel, I really don't know how the ancients named it.
"So, senior brother, these things have all existed before, and they can't all rely on my master and me, right? However, you and that dark-skinned man really got one thing right, there is indeed a treasure hidden in this burial hall. β
I have explained to others everywhere that the Burial Gu Hall is a special altar to put it bluntly, and the purpose of its existence is to curse one side and not to hide treasures, but the words of Guantian have shocked me.
"Senior brother, there is a treasure hidden here, and this is also the purpose of my here. The original soft gold vertebrae were snatched away by you, I don't think you still want to swallow this treasure alone, right? β
I had never heard of any treasure in Guantian's mouth, and the purpose of my coming here was to see if I could help Huang Yuwen cure her aunt and sister's strange illnesses with my own strength.
"I don't know what the baby you are talking about, my friend and I are here to see his family, to see if we can solve some problems for them."
After I finished speaking, Guantian stretched out his hand and pointed to the pool in the distance, "Do you see that round pool, it is called the Eye of the Earth." According to legend, it is a passage poked out by the Ruyi golden hoop rod, leading straight to the underworld. And at the bottom of this passage, there is a book of life and death. β
The words of watching the sky made me breathe a deep sigh, which was too fantastical to even describe this short story.
When I was a sophomore in high school, I once encountered a dried female corpse, and the lady had a notebook in her backpack, and the notebook recorded the words Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick and Netherworld.
At first, I couldn't understand what these two words meant, but now I know.
"Guantian, I'll break the conversation with you. The two of us met in this place today, and there was no conflict of interest at all. So in a moment you go to your book of life and death, and I leave here with my friends, and we have nothing to do with each other, and neither of us should affect anyone, is that okay? β
The petite Guantian suddenly threw himself into my arms, "Of course, senior brother, none of us will affect anyone, I'm so happy that you can say that, and I hope to be good friends with you." β
"Gollumβ"
A string of bubbles rose on the surface of the lake, and slowly, a huge yellow eel raised its head out of the water.
