Chapter 101: Finding Yu Dan
The fog grew a little thicker, and everything in front of me returned to its white appearance, and I groped around the wall in front of me, which I couldn't see clearly, for a long time, and then found a door in which I could enter. I stood in the doorway for a moment, still wondering whether to go in or not.
Whatever is in this tower, it is definitely not a good thing, and no one will build a tower in the middle of the village to store food after the fact. So I still have a point in my heart about the dangers. To go in or not to go in?
If you go in, you will have to have something out if you can't keep it, and then you will definitely have to start a fight again, I am not afraid of the danger, but if Yu Dan is not in it, the little spiritual power left in my body may have to consume a lot, or even all of it.
But if I don't go in, then if Yu Dan is in this tower, I go in a second earlier, and the chance that Yu Dan will be okay will be greater! After a little thought, I resolutely pushed the door with my hand. No matter what's inside! Even if there is only a one percent chance that Yu Dan is in it, I have to go and see it.
If Yu Dan was really inside, and I died because I didn't go in, I wouldn't be at ease in my life.
When I opened the door, I saw a small courtyard, and there was a small tower in the middle of the courtyard behind the door, and there was not a trace of fog in the center of the courtyard. It's as if the outer wall is keeping the fog out. I've been looking at the white expanse for so long, and suddenly there is no fog that interferes with my vision, but I feel a little unaccustomed.
But luckily, I was able to adapt as quickly as possible. He took off the copper coin sword behind his back and slowly walked to the front of the tower, and gently pushed the wooden door of the tower with his hand. The wooden door creaked open a crack. Then some dust fell down the crack in the door. It was quiet inside the tower, and a few kerosene lamps of unknown time were still flickering with a few faint flames.
By the faint light of the flames, I was able to see inside the first floor of the tower. The entire first floor was empty all around, except for a table directly in front of it, on which was an incense burner, and the incense burner was full of ashes from the burning incense.
There are two candlesticks on either side, but there are no candles on them. The offering table was old, tattered and seemed to have been placed for a long time, and I touched it lightly with my hand, and it was covered with dust. Behind the offering table is a wall with a number of spiritual positions placed in a staircase.
Although I can't see it clearly, what is written at the top. But the tablets below are written on the ancestors of such and such a family. It seems that this first scene should be the place where the ancestral tablets are placed. It's just that why do the people in this village not use the tablets of their ancestors in their own homes, but collectively build a tower, and then put all the tablets of their ancestors in the tower?
This unusual scene quickly aroused my suspicions, the tablet of my ancestors, in terms of feng shui and Taoism, must be to offer the tablets of my ancestors in my own home, so that the ancestors can bless their family with good weather. Because when you worship your ancestors during the New Year's Festival, your tribute, your incense and candles, and your paper money all have to be given to your ancestors in the underworld through the tablets in your home.
And like now, if you put all the ancestors of an unknown number of families in one place, you can't even eat a fart by relying on the two candles and the incense ash on the offering table. I've seen so many unusual things since I came to this village, but there is a reason for them.
I vaguely felt that the tablets in front of me might be an important clue to all the reasons, but I still don't have a clue where to start.
Just as I was thinking about these tablets, there was a slight sound of footsteps from the upper floor in the quiet tower. It was the sound of footsteps, but it didn't sound particularly similar, I didn't care about thinking about the ranking, I held the copper coin sword in my left hand, and gently held the stairs with my right hand, and began to walk towards the second floor of the tower.
Feet on the wooden staircase squeak, it seems that the tower should have been built for a long time, it seems that the wood on the stairs has not been stepped on by many people, the wooden stairs are only going up now, and they still feel very steady.
But I still didn't dare to go too fast, for fear that something would attack me from behind when I just let my guard down or didn't pay attention.
When I finally stepped on the second floor of the tower, there was a person lying in the center of the second floor, and there were more kerosene lamps on the second floor than on the first floor, so the light should be brighter, and the person lying on the ground was unconsciously squirming with her feet, and the slight sound I heard in front of me should be the sound of her feet rubbing on the ground.
A kerosene lamp in the distance shone right on the man's face. Yu Dan! When I saw her face, I was amazed. Then he quickly ran forward two steps, squatted on the ground, and put the sword in his left hand aside. After testing Yu Dan's snort with her hand, she found that her breathing was quite steady, and a big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
I gently helped Yu Dan to lie in my arms, and then tried to wake her up. It's just that Yu Dan's body is still so cold in my arms, so cold that people think it came out of the ice cellar. Yu Dan's face was very pale, and there was basically no trace of blood.
After I shook Yu Dan twice, Yu Dan slowly opened his eyes in my arms. "Li Hao! There you are! You're finally here! Yu Dan looked very weak, but he was very excited and hugged me and cried. I hugged her tightly, but there was a trace of doubt in my heart.
"Okay, don't cry, I'm not here, tell me what's going on?" Yu Dan asked softly after wiping away the tears from his eyes. Yu Dan sat up, thought for a while, and said, "I didn't know what was going on at first, it was some white mist, and then I fainted, and I don't remember much about what happened in front and behind." ”
Yu Dan's words were ambiguous, and he seemed to be surprised too much, and he couldn't remember it. I helped Yu Dan to stand up, then picked up the copper coin sword and said, "Forget it, if you can't think of it, you can't remember it, it's nothing." Yu Dan nodded: "What should we do now?" I looked around, and there was nothing but a few kerosene lamps, and the second floor was empty.
Among the several kerosene lamps on the second floor, the flame of one lamp danced particularly happily, even if there was no wind, this flame was swaying. I took Yu Dan's hand and gently walked forward two steps, and just as I was about to reach out and take off the kerosene lamp hanging on the wall, Yu Dan suddenly stopped me.
"Li Hao, what should we do now?" My hand that wanted to get the kerosene lamp paused unconsciously, and then withdrew my hand: "I don't know, if it doesn't work, I'll finish this tower!" My curiosity is still very strong. "In this case, when I saw Yu Dan, my first reaction was not to take her out, but to see the tower. Isn't that a strange thing?
But Yu Dan didn't seem to think there was anything wrong, but nodded as a matter of course. Then he stepped forward and took off the kerosene lamp on the wall with the most joyful flame. He stood in front of me with it and said, "Let's go, I'll help you with the lamp." ”
I smiled a little, then gently kissed her on the cheek, "You're so nice." Yu Dan's face turned red, and then he lowered his head embarrassedly. The flames in the kerosene lamps danced even more happily. And after I turned around, a strange smile appeared on Yu Dan's face.
The hand holding the kerosene lamp lightly touched the flame, then put his index finger into his mouth and licked it, then looked at the flame and whispered to himself: "Hehe, don't you like him?" Then you just watch how I play with your man in front of you! ”
"Beauty, let's go! If I don't leave, if the fire is extinguished, you won't have to use ice cream to slap my face again!" After hearing this, Yu Dan stopped fiddling with the flame and followed behind me with the lamp. And the small flame in the kerosene lamp gradually quieted down after hearing this.
Zhang Mu and Zhao Qiankun walked to the village where I stayed in front, Zhao Qiankun used his own force, and directly looked for Zhang Mu house by house. I don't know what the two of them are looking for, but they don't let go of any clues, hoping to find something out of this.
After Zhao Qiankun and Zhang Mu searched for most of the village, they found the courtyard where Wang Lan held her wedding, and the scene in the courtyard was the same as what I saw earlier. After Zhang Mu walked around the courtyard, he didn't see anything useful. At most, I came to a similar conclusion as I did, and the people who attended the wedding suddenly disappeared for some reason, and they didn't even have time to pack their things.
And Zhao Qiankun stood at the door and sniffed with his nose, and squatted on the ground and touched the ground on the ground. When Zhang Mu came out, he happened to see Zhao Qiankun doing these few actions, so he hurriedly asked Zhao Qiankun if he had found anything. Zhao Qiankun ignored Zhang Mu, but carefully looked for something around.
Finally found some water stains that hadn't dried completely and an empty wine bottle a few steps away. Zhao Qiankun took the empty wine bottle and sighed: "Senior brother can even think of such a method!" ”
