Chapter 42: Start Again
I don't know why Brother Wu has such a big reaction, this should be an open secret in the Chen family.
Brother Wu didn't bow his head, but looked directly into my eyes, his lips slightly opened, and he wanted to say something.
But the rotten master suddenly interrupted what he wanted to say, and he closed his mouth when he saw the rotten master coming over.
I think Brother Wu's reaction is a little abnormal, although we are discussing things about the rotten master, but as we all know, the rotten master doesn't care about his life experience at all in front of others.
He felt that he was not from an unknown origin, and that he did not need to deny his past.
The rotten master came over and said to me: "Huaizi, that side will be ready soon, we plan to go in again, you and I will go around and see if we can still pick up amber." ”
"Is that something you can pick up? It's better to get more torches. I complained like this, but my eyes glanced at Brother Wu's reaction from time to time.
Brother Wu didn't speak again since he came over from the rotten master, and he looked like he was deep in thought.
I looked at the rotten master who had already walked away, and thought to myself that I had to find a chance to ask him alone.
Then I followed the steps of the rotten master, and walked a little farther away from the crowd, and the rotten master stopped and turned to face me.
When I saw that the rotten master's posture didn't look like he was looking for amber, it was like pulling others apart and saying something to me.
So I pretended to be calm and said, "Why did you ask me to come over?" ”
The rotten master looked at me with a look of seeing through me: "What did Xu Wu tell you?" ”
At this time, I felt that I was a two-zhang monk, and I couldn't figure it out. The two of them asked one in the past, and the other asked, and they didn't know what they were trying to do.
Because they were testing each other, I was only halfway there. I replied to Master Fu, I was asking Xu Wu about the above things, and see if there were any details missing.
The rotten master asked me if I had found anything. I looked at the rotten master and didn't answer his question first, and I vaguely felt that something was wrong.
It was the first time that the rotten master had behaved so urgently, and he had hardly reacted so much before.
So I kept an eye on it: "He said that amber doesn't work on it." ”
In order not to let the rotten master get entangled in this problem anymore, I changed the conversation: "Rotten master, I think this may be a tomb within a tomb." ”
This sentence really attracted the attention of the rotten master, and he raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Let's hear it. ”
I actually said this sentence to distract the rotten master, but I did have this idea in my head.
It's just that I haven't sorted out the logical problem yet, and the rotten master told me to say it, and I really don't know how to open my mouth at this time.
After thinking about it for a long time, I really didn't find anything to convince myself, so I said haha: "At present, I have this idea, but I have to go up to know the specifics." ”
The rotten master nodded, thinking that what I said was reasonable, so he instructed again: "You should pay more attention along the way, and look around to see if you can find something." ”
At this point, it seems that it should be the end of the matter as a matter of course. I'm a little afraid that the rotten master will ask Brother Wu about it again.
With his shrewdness, if I say a few more words, I will be flawed, and I don't want the rotten master to suspect me at that time.
A voice came from behind me: "Master Rotten, Brother Huai, things are ready." ”
I don't have to look back, the voice is naturally Chen Ran. I let out a sigh of relief that someone had finally come to the rescue.
Chen Ran came over to me and asked, "Did you find amber?" ”
As soon as he said this, I remembered what I was supposed to do, and I immediately reacted and pretended to be disappointed: "I didn't find it." ”
Chen Ran patted me on the shoulder and comforted me: "That's it, but it's okay, we have a few more torches over there, and this trip should be enough." ”
I nodded and followed Chen Ran towards the side of the army, regardless of whether the rotten master followed or not.
Lao Jiu saw us coming over, looked behind us, and saw that he hadn't seen the figure of the rotten master for a long time, so he asked us: "Where is the rotten master?" ”
I also looked behind me and saw him standing there and bending over to look at something. I shouted from afar: "Rotten master, go!" ”
He straightened up, looked at me, gestured to me, and walked over.
I looked at Brother Wu's injuries and said to Lao Jiu, "Why don't you leave Brother Wu behind?" ”
Lao Jiu looked at everyone and said, "It stands to reason that he should stay like this, but he can't be left alone, and he has to be taken care of by someone." ”
I think Lao Jiu has a point, but since there are only four people in our team, we have to keep two at once, which is equivalent to taking half of the team.
I don't know what to do for a while.
Brother Wu held his waist, trying to straighten his waist, with a reluctant smile on his face: "I'm fine, I'm going to go with you." ”
Master Fu walked up to me at this time and asked why we hadn't packed up our things yet, and I said that I was still thinking about Brother Wu's whereabouts.
After listening to what I meant, the rotten master felt that it was not good to make decisions for others, and in the end it was up to him.
Brother Wu naturally wanted to join us, and when I saw that he was very persistent, I didn't persuade him, and after arranging Chen Ran to be by his side, we packed up our things.
It's really nothing to clean up, just put the things you took out before back in your bag.
So it was just a matter of a few tens of seconds that everyone was about the same, and I checked it one last time, and after confirming that it was correct, we set off again.
Because of the experience of the last time, this time we seem to be familiar with the road.
Before stepping into the circle, the rotten master stopped us and stuffed something into the hands of one of us.
I felt familiar to the touch, and I reached in a little bit, and I could see through the light of the fire that it was a piece of amber.
I was a little surprised, and said to the rotten master: "I didn't expect you to really find it." ”
When I said this, the rotten master had already walked away, and when he heard it, he walked back to me.
He threw me a look, and before I could figure out what was going on, he shoved something into my hand again.
I held the thing in my hand, and the rotten master patted my hand meaningfully.
I was so confused by his series of actions that I pretended to be casual and glanced at what seemed to be a wooden sign.
Then I carried the things in my pocket as the rotten master wanted.
As soon as I entered the pocket, I felt as if I had been given a special mission, and I kept figuring out the intentions of the rotten master along the way.
Because of the amber, the flying lemurs never attacked us again, and the journey seemed very safe.
I kept rubbing the marks on it with my hands in my trouser pockets, and there should be circles or something on it, which felt a bit like the two cylinders in mahjong.
Before I could find a corner, I came to the tree, and I was still thinking about the crack in the tree that Chen Ran said before.
As soon as I arrived, I told Master Fu about this problem.
