Chapter 143: Popularity
"Is it convenient to say? The reason why you have been staying in Dali. If I'm not mistaken, it has something to do with those two missing foreign friends, right? "I glanced at Sharon's eyes and kept looking at the Wangfuyun standing on the top of the mountain overlooking the Erhai Lake, and I had a faint feeling in my heart that Sharon's purpose was inextricably linked to it.
"Okay. Your eyes are deeper than you look. It seems hard to hide from you. Sharon said, smiling at us and telling me her story.
Sure enough, the two foreigners who disappeared, a man and a girl, and the girl among them was Sharon's half-sister. She inherited her mother's excellent scientific research genes as a university professor since she was a child, and she is quite accomplished in the study of Chinese culture, the only bad thing is that she is different from her academic mother, she likes field trips.
So, in order to complete her master's thesis, Sharon's sister and boyfriend, an equally adventurous British traveler with an interest in Chinese culture, came to Dali to explore the legend of Wangfuyun.
Sharon's mother didn't pay much attention at first, and it wasn't until two weeks after her sister disappeared that she called Sharon, who was far away in Russia. Sharon didn't comfort her mother too much, and after putting down the phone, she immediately came here. In this respect, she is more like her invincible boxer-like father.
She only thought in her heart that even if there was a trace of it, she wanted to bring her sister's relics back to her mother.
"So be it. If not, we can act together. "The reason why I made this suggestion was actually because it occurred to me that Linda's recording seemed to mention some words similar to "magic weapons". Again, since the legend told by Meng Zhao mentions the "bronze mirror" with profound meaning several times, can I not associate it with the reincarnation mirror around my neck?
If Linda can create the reincarnation mirror I wear out of nothing without any reference, I don't think it's appropriate to say it. It is likely that she saw the beauty of the "bronze mirror" in the story somewhere in this mountain, and used her wonderful hand to provoke yin and yang to reproduce the masterpiece of the reincarnation treasure mirror.
"That's it! To tell you the truth, our brother Li Ang is a famous mountain movers! What the? You don't know? It doesn't matter, you'll understand it later, and you'll be equivalent to your 'mage' over there!" It's a cow who can use spells! ”
The cabinet saw that Sharon listened to my suggestion, and was still noncommittal, and hurriedly stepped forward to promote it to me with some uncontrollability, but it seemed to have the opposite effect, making Sharon, who was already a little excited, stop talking when the words came to her mouth.
It seems that sales pitch also depends on people. For foreigners who pay attention to the spirit of hard work, it is estimated that actions are more convincing than words.
"Well, look, what's that?" It was Mengzhao who spoke. Looking in the direction of her finger, it was obvious that everyone saw a wisp of smoke. Looking at the direction and distance, it must have been the stove set up by the group of college students who went straight up the mountain.
"Alas, these boys are really going to find time to do things! Don't you know we're busy right now? It's also going to increase the difficulty of a wave of missions. Feed! Brother Li Ang, is rescuing the ignorant masses our side quest?
Really, I hate adventurous hairy boys! It's just going to cause trouble! Speaking of this, the cabinet suddenly thought of something, and felt that he turned his head and added to Sharon:
“nooffence!ididntmeanyoursister!”
("No offense!") I don't mean your sister! ”)
“itsok.”
(It's fine.) )
Luckily, Sharon is more generous. But from another point of view, her sister is indeed not a worry-free guy. Whether it's a honeymoon trip or a graduation thesis, can you go to a safe place, what's fun in the barren mountains and mountains where birds don't poop?
"Save it or not, I bet that young people must not know how to be grateful!"
The cabinet complained and turned his head to look at me, and at this time, he took me as the "captain" very seriously.
"Try your best." To be honest, it's not that I don't want to, but because I've gone through several previous adventures, and I've come to understand more and more that sometimes saving people is also very "fate". It's not that you don't save him, but his fate may be like that, no matter how hard you try to pull him, I don't want to reach out, what can you do.
It's like what Linda once told me: for mortals, fate is absolute and irresistible. So, she believes in fate. In addition, she only believes in herself.
Even Linda, a real person, is so pale and powerless in front of her fate, let alone a mortal?!
"Okay, brother, you cover us! Safety first, wealth second! I guess I also felt the invisible pressure from my words, and the cat waist followed the cabinet behind me, while carefully probing the footprints of several young college students, and at the same time also took the time to compare the location of Linda's recording on the map with the overlap of GPS positioning.
To be honest, he is as dexterous and attentive as he is, which is one of the reasons why I am willing to take him to the ground with such a layman.
"Oops! These children who don't know the height of the sky seem to be really planning to camp in this dangerous place! "Seeing the four college students who were busy setting up tents and lighting fires in the field of vision, I couldn't hide my depression and couldn't help frowning.
"Why don't we? What to do, this group of bear children, they will definitely not listen to the preaching. Otherwise, just partner up next to them, and take care of everything. "Although the cabinet has a poisonous mouth, he is still a warm-hearted person, and the reason why he suggests it is that he still hopes that the young people can hug my thighs and spend the night safely.
"Well, so be it." I told Sharon about my decision, and she didn't object to seeing that it was getting late.
So, we were in the cabinet and said "Hey! Handsome guys and beauties, meet again! The military tent was set up more than 10 meters away from them.
In this way, under the accosting skills of the cabinet, everyone who met in Pingshui finally got into a conversation at dinner, and I also roughly understood the situation of the four people opposite.
The four university students, with an average age of 23 or 4 years old, are all students from a local university. In line with my guess, two men and two women are boyfriend and girlfriend, so the boys still have a certain hostility towards us, while the girls seem to be much more relaxed, perhaps, they subconsciously feel that "more people are more powerful".
So, the cabinet, which is quite familiar with the training of young people, took on the task of educating young people, starting with the girl named "Mengmeng" who had a good impression of us, and learned the basic situation of their four-person team.
Meng Meng is from the Northeast, and Mengzhao is a fellow countryman, and the two soon chatted together. Another round-faced girl is named Zhang Yuan, who looks a little scheming, but overall she is still a timid type, and it shouldn't be difficult to convince her.
The problem is that Mengmeng's boyfriend, the man named Dabao, had been a soldier before being admitted to college, but he had no actual combat experience. He was the oldest of the four, the most courageous, and the most distrustful of us who suddenly appeared.
There is also a boy who is pursuing Zhang Yuan, named Ah Rui, although he seems to be polite and bookish, but he is full of energy, he seems to be the most proficient in things, he is the organizer of their excursion, and he also seems to have quite practical decision-making power.
Just as I was sitting quietly by the campfire on my side, eating hot canned luncheon meat with Sharon, the cabinet and Mengzhao brought back a barely useful piece of news-
"What? Two hundred meters above the campsite, the young man found a deep hole that looked like a tomb - the entrance of the cave? The coordinates also coincide with the proximity of the marker! "When I heard the news, I couldn't believe my ears.
First, it's because it's too coincidental, right? It's really "nowhere to find when you step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!" "Second, today's young people are too bold! Don't say it's a suspicious tomb, if it's a bear blind man's cave, you just swagger and set up camp in front of people's homes, do your mothers know?
"Then you will work hard to convince them to leave tomorrow morning, and then we will enter the cave properly." After thinking about it, I still gave the task to the cabinet and Mengzhao, who were temporarily guest "political instructors", and asked them to work harder and do a good job in mobilizing young comrades whose ideological consciousness is not mature enough.
"What a ghost this ......" cabinet is, it naturally knows that I am shaking the pot, and a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on my face.
"Okay, don't say it. This task is related to the future of the flowers of the motherland, and I believe you can do it, Instructor Zhao! Realizing his hesitation, I hurriedly added a few kind words, and then I pulled Mengzhao in the cabinet and went to the campfire opposite to do ideological work again.
In fact, I deliberately want to tiring up the cabinet and Mengzhao, and I also have a purpose, that is, I want to take advantage of everyone's sleep at night, go down to the field alone to see the situation, figure out the context of Linda's recording, and take everyone away tomorrow morning.
Naturally, I didn't even say anything about the cabinet. After all, there will be a chance in the future, and the first time I take him to the ground, it is better to be safe, go and go back quickly.
At least, that's what I intended.
So, in the dead of night, when I sensed with my eyes that the people inside and outside the tent were calming down, I got out of my sleeping bag, got dressed, and felt out of the tent lightly.
"Humph! I know that brother, you didn't plan to take me down to have a look. "Unexpectedly, I just walked with the front foot, and the back foot of the cabinet followed.
Damn, this guy is afraid that I won't take him to the ground, and he's been pretending to be asleep!
"Well, be careful, don't alarm the others!" I thought about it quickly, and I had to compromise. Pointing lightly to the tents of Mengzhao and Sharon, and the college students opposite, I waved my hand, signaling the cabinet to follow me, and then walked towards the location of the cave.
Who knows, before we walked twenty steps away, in the empty and lonely camp, there was a penetrating scream from a girl named Zhang Yuan-
"Yikes! Meng Meng is gone! ”
"Holy! Dabao is gone! Hearing the sound and then screaming, naturally there was also Ari, whose voice was a little shriveled.
I rub! I'm really going to find time! Sure enough, most adventurous children are not good children! Tomb Hunter East White
