Chapter 182: Promise

It was the first time I had seen the Yabarai Salt Lake in the middle of the night, and it was hazy and mysterious in the moonlight.

The off-road vehicle was driving on the lakeside road, and Wu Xufeng was sitting in the passenger seat, his eyes staring at the beard of the driver.

The beard was very depressed, this errand was originally Xiao Jiu's, but it still fell on his head when he pushed it around.

I ignored it and looked out the window.

"Here we are."

After the beard stopped the car, he couldn't wait.

"Hmm."

I answered, and then got out of the car with Wu Xufeng.

In the distance, you can see a bonfire by the lake, and a man is sitting on the ground, tilting his head to look into the distance, silently motionless.

Looking at the figure, it was none other than Qiao Er himself, who also noticed that we had arrived at this time, and raised his hand at us casually.

"The second master is so interested!"

I waved the same and walked over to the campfire.

Qiao Er didn't say anything, reached out and touched a bottle of beer and threw it to me.

I took it casually, opened it and took a sip, then looked at the night around me, and then said, "The second master came to me so late, not just to invite me to a drink?" ”

Qiao Er spoke: "Of course not, have you seen all those petroglyph photos?" ”

I nodded and said, "Look." ”

Qiao Er: "Tell me." ”

"Well, it's really not ......."

I took another sip of wine, then told the story of the petroglyphs in general, and finally said, "That's about it, there are still some places I haven't understood yet." ”

Qiao Er nodded after hearing this, neither looking surprised nor questioning, which made me feel a little strange, and after thinking about it for a while, I thought that he might have found someone to see it.

It's normal to think about it like this, after all, he is also connected to the imperial capital, and it shouldn't be difficult to find a few people who can see it.

"Second master, you brought what you wanted."

Just as Qiao Er and I were chatting, one of Qiao Er's subordinates came over to report.

Qiao Er beckoned to him and motioned for him to bring it.

I looked over curiously, and by the light of the campfire, I finally saw what he had brought in.

It was a tortoise shell, quite a large piece, with oracle bone inscriptions engraved on it, and there were quite a few words.

Qiao Er looked at it himself, and then handed it to me.

After I took it, I felt a sinking in my hand, and it turned out that the weight of this thing was not light, about a dozen pounds.

Then the light of the campfire brightened, and I looked at it again carefully, and found that the words on it were still a little different from the oracle bone inscription.

I watched curiously for a long time, but the light of the campfire was so bright that I felt dazzled, and finally I had to give up.

I held the tortoise shell and asked, "Second Master, where did this come from?" ”

Qiao Er didn't shy away from it, and replied: "This is what our people found, the words on it are a little strange, I thought of you, so I brought it over for you to see." ”

I see, I nodded, and said, "This character is an early oracle bone inscription, and it is really not easy to have so many characters on a tortoise shell." ”

Qiao Er asked, "Do you know this word?" ”

I then nodded and said, "Yes, it's just that I'm dizzy from the light of the fire." ”

Qiao Er also understood that the bonfire was bright and flickering, and waved his hand and said, "You can take it back and look at it slowly, I came to look for you and have other things......

"Oh?"

I was surprised, I didn't know what medicine Qiao Erhulu was buying at all, so I asked, "Something else?" Is it what you want me to do? ”

Qiao Er nodded, and then said, "Wen Xianbao's gang has already gone to look for the tomb of Chiyou, and I came here to let you go again......"

I frowned: "Chiyou Tomb? The second master is not mistaken, right? How could there be such a thing as Chiyou Tomb in this world, it must have been made up by others. ”

Qiao Er shook his head and said, "Haven't you seen the rock paintings, there are records on it......"

"Is there one?"

I was puzzled, and suddenly remembered the petroglyphs I had seen with Liu Rumei before, Liu Rumei said that it was a funeral, and it turned out that it was the tomb of Chiyou.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that on the petroglyph in front of me, the corpse of Chi You was separated, and it was miserable.

This corroborates the words of historians and confirms the legends.

Legend has it that Chi You has an immortal body, and in the end, the two emperors of Yan and Huang had no choice but to kill Chi You's head, and then he gave up.

I asked, "What does the second master mean is that the petroglyph of a group of people walking up the mountain is the picture of the burial of Chiyou?" ”

Qiao Er nodded and said, "Yes, after Chiyou was killed, he could have been resurrected, but the enemy killed him and took it, so he broke the idea of resurrection." ”

It dawned on me that this was the meaning of the petroglyphs, and when I thought about it, the petroglyphs were very detailed and surprising.

I suddenly thought of another question, so I asked, "Second Master, I still have something unclear and want to ask ......."

Qiao Er waved his hand: "You're polite, just say anything about it." ”

"Uh-huh."

I continued: "The petroglyph only has the shape of a mountain, which is basically not a clue, right? ”

What I mean is very clear, there is no shortage of mountains in China, even if they are very similar to the mountains painted on the petroglyphs, you can list dozens of them casually, how to find this thing.

Qiao Er nodded and said: "It makes sense, just looking at the rock paintings is true, but according to my report, Wen Xianbao's did rely on the information on the rock paintings to find the tomb of Chiyou." ”

I frowned: "Is that possible?" I don't see anything anyway. ”

Qiao Er smiled and shook his head, and then said, "We don't have to work hard to find the tomb of Chiyou, just follow Wen Xianbao and them." ”

I'm sweating, is it the same set of "praying mantis catching cicadas, yellow finches behind"? How do I feel that this Qiao Er basically used Wen Xianbao as a search dog, and he didn't have to work hard at all, just waiting for the other party to find it.

Qiao Er probably saw that I didn't speak, he raised the beer in his hand at me, and then drank it all.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise to go with you to find the tomb of Chiyou." ”

"Happy!"

Qiao Er had already thrown aside the empty beer bottle in his hand at this time, and then opened another bottle for himself, brought it to me, clinked glasses with me, and said, "Happy cooperation!" ”

"Happy working together!"

I didn't hesitate to grab the bottle and drink it down.

……

When it was almost dawn, Qiao Er sent someone to send us back to the hospital, and after I walked into the ward with the tortoise shell and Wu Xufeng, I was suddenly shocked by the scene in front of me.

The photos I posted on the wall of the hospital ward were gone, and Wu Xufeng was also stunned, those photos were still there when he left.

Wu Xufeng: "Boss, you said that in the middle of the night, who would come to the hospital to steal those photos?" ”

I shook my head: "I don't know, it's strange to say, I've heard of stealing cars, cows, and oil in recent years, and it's the first time I've heard of stealing photos." ”
