Chapter 192: Inability to use the compass
Among the many decisions, waiting is undoubtedly the most passive and the most useless.
But sometimes it is forced by the situation, and the only thing left is to wait.
At least for Yan Yu, this was the only way he could think of, but Zhao Tongxuan obviously didn't think so.
"Waiting is not a solution, in case the senior brother gets into some trouble, he may not be able to come back here, we still have to take the initiative to find ......"
Zhao Tongxuan's words are not wrong, if Zhao Tongxuan is really fine, he should have come back to save Yu Guofeng and the others, and if he didn't come back for a long time, he would definitely be in trouble.
"How?" That's the problem.
If the marmot was still there, it might still be found, but the marmot had been scared away by the monster.
And there is a big problem here, but Yan Yu has always been hidden in his heart.
That is, the groundhog clearly sniffed Zhao Tongyong's dust and followed the smell to find it, but Zhao Tonggong was not in it, and he did not leave any belongings.
In other words, the smell left by Zhao Tonggong here should be very weak, but the groundhog did not lead Yan Yu and the others to find Zhao Tonggong himself, but came here, what is the reason?
Although the groundhog is very spiritual, it is not enough to analyze the situation, and it is not smart enough to know that Yan Yu wants to save people, right?
Therefore, either someone in this group of people has hidden Zhao Tongyong's belongings, or Zhao Tonggong has not gone far and is still around here!
This is also the reason why Yan Yu did not say anything, everyone was discussing countermeasures, but someone hid Zhao Tongyi's things, but they did not take the initiative to bring it up, I am afraid that there is still a secret in it!
In any case, if Zhao Tongxuan has a way to find Zhao Tongxuan and meet him, then the problem will be solved.
Zhao Tongxuan didn't seem to be very worried about how to find his senior brother, and said to Yan Yu: "Senior brother is thoughtful and thoughtful, it is impossible that there are no clues left, but we can't find it." ”
Zhao Tongxuan was no longer verbose, fumbled in the Qiankun bag, and took out a magic weapon.
Yan Yu leaned over to take a look, but it was a small hand bone, with complete five fingers, like the entire metacarpal bone of a monkey or a baby, and he wanted to play with it all day long.
"What kind of ...... is this" Although Yan Yu is used to Zhao Tongxuan's actions, at such a juncture, he wants to pretend to be a ghost, and Yan Yu doesn't like it in his heart.
Zhao Tongxuan didn't answer Yan Yu, but took out the charm and began to mumble the spell again, while the other old men in Dunhuang Mountain looked fanatical and worshipful, as if they had seen a rare wonder in a hundred years.
Yan Yu didn't really hear it, but he could vaguely understand the content of the incantation, and thinking of the teachings of his ancestors, Yan Yu was also taken aback.
"This ...... This is the technique of carrying the five ghosts?!!! ”
Zhao Tongxuan suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Yan Yu, but soon refocused on chanting mantras, but the old men of Dunhuang Mountain turned their eyes to Yan Yu one by one.
One of them asked, "My nephew even knows this?" ”
Their eyes were full of surprise and even jealousy, but Yan Yu smiled bitterly in his heart, because in their opinion, this may be a profound Taoism, but when the ancestor wanted to teach Yan Yu, the mantras and mantras were all compiled into nursery rhymes, just to teach Yan Yu to kill time......
It's also a shame that they don't know what happened back then, otherwise they should be heartbroken, scolding Yan Yu for destroying heavenly things, and not knowing how to cherish them.
Zhao Tongxuan kept chanting the mantra here, and then took out the yellow talisman, the sword finger was just like this, and the talisman paper suddenly spontaneously combusted!
This hand made Yu Guofeng and the others stand on end, after all, it happened in front of them, and this kind of visual impact was extremely powerful!
After the yellow talisman burned, Zhao Tongxuan finished chanting the mantra and shouted: "Go!" ”
Throwing the yellow fu forward, in the originally unventilated cave, a breeze suddenly blew, like countless invisible little hands, playing, wandering around the yellow fu, and there was even a faint sound of children frolicking in the depths of the cave!
This scene is extremely weird, that is, Yan Yu has some self-doubt!
However, Yan Yu didn't have the heart to question it, because the yellow rune seemed to be full of spirituality, hovering around everyone, and finally landed at Luo Wenchong's feet!
Luo Wenchong's face suddenly turned pale, and Zhao Tongxuan was also gloomy, and said in a deep voice to Luo Wenchong: "Take it out!" ”
Luo Wen said humbly: "What...... What to take out......"
Zhao Tongxuan walked forward: "On this burning eyebrow joint, I don't care what the hell you have in mind, let me put it down first, and take out my brother's things first!" ”
Luo Wenchong's face was extremely ugly, but he was silent, and after a while, he couldn't support it, so he took out something from his backpack.
"This is Zhao Zhenren's thing, but I didn't steal it, it was the ...... he gave it to me"
Zhao Tongxuan took it and saw that it was a brass compass with an extremely complex dial, but the hands in the center had been fixed in a certain position.
"We searched around just now, why didn't you say a word!" The people of Dunhuang Mountain were also very angry, but Luo Wenchong shook his head and said: "It's not that I deliberately hid it, it's that Zhao Zhenren has a word first, and he can't hand it ......over."
"We're not outsiders, so why should we even guard against us!" The people of Dunhuang Mountain are still complaining.
Luo Wenchong was very resolute: "No, Zhao Zhenren said that this thing can only be handed over to Yan Yu in private, and no one will know about it......"
"Give it to me?" Yan Yu was also a little stunned, because he didn't know the compass at all, and it was useless to hand it over to him, so it was better to hand it over to Zhao Tongxuan.
It's just that why did Zhao Tongyi guard against the people of Dunhuang Mountain? Or did he never think that Hu Yaozu would let Yan Yu take over Dunhuang Mountain, let alone that Yan Yu would be able to convince the group of old men in Dunhuang Mountain?
Zhao Tongxuan heard this, and was also a little aggrieved, but still handed the compass to Yan Yu.
Yan Yu pushed the compass back and said to Zhao Tongxuan: "I can trust you, Uncle Shi must have provided a place to find him if he left this, or you should come and see." ”
Zhao Tongxuan felt warm, and this time he didn't sneer again, but quickly studied the compass in his hand.
There was no direction in the cave, Zhao Tongxuan walked around, but the pointer of the compass was still fixed in one place, so he had to ask Luo Wenchong: "Did the senior brother leave any advice?" ”
"Advice?" Luo Wenchong thought for a while, frowned and shook his head and said, "Zhao Zhenren just said that he must be handed over to Yan Yu in private, and nothing else will be said......"
Zhao Tongxuan also fell into deep thought, but Yan Yu found a problem.
"When did he give it to you?"
"When? I can't tell you the specifics, we lost our way, the real person was a little worried, not far ahead, he hurriedly stuffed the ...... to me"
"He told me that if something happens, I'll give it to you......"
Yan Yu asked again: "Did the monster appear when it was handed over to you?" ”
Luo Wenchong shook his head: "That's not true, we originally came in with Liang Shumei and Haneda Guichen, but then we were attacked, everyone was separated, and we had to find another way......
Yan Yu nodded, and said in his heart, if this is the case, then Zhao Tongyi should have expected it, could it be that he knew that the monster would attack? Or is it an old devil he wants to guard against?
Yan Yu originally thought that Zhao Tongyong had left here in order to lure away the monster, but now it seems that maybe Zhao Tongyong had already had a plan to act alone, otherwise he would not have handed over this thing to Luo Wenchong in advance.
Zhao Tongxuan looked at it for a long time, and also shook his head: "This compass doesn't leave any ......."
He handed the compass to Yan Yu, and Yan Yu couldn't see what was wrong, so he had to ask Luo Wenchong, "Can you take us back to the place where he gave you the compass?" ”
Luo Wenchong took a look, because of the explosion, the surrounding terrain had changed a lot, but fortunately, they left marks along the way, and immediately nodded to Yan Yu and said, "Yes." ”
Yan Yu didn't say much more, everyone followed Luo Wenchong, and returned to the area of strange rocks, and walked through the rocks for a long time, and finally returned to the original place.
Xu was in too haste, and the marks they left were not very clear, and sometimes they just scratched a trace, so it took a lot of time on the road.
Everyone was already very tired, and although they rested for a while, after arriving at this place, they were so hot that they couldn't do it, and they were all out of breath.
"This is it......"
Yan Yu picked up the compass and looked at it, the needle of the compass was still fixed, and there was no change, but there was a sense of uneasiness in his heart, and he always felt that he was carrying a heart and could not be implemented.
Zhao Tongxuan and the people of Dunhuang Mountain were tireless, and checked around again, and finally shook their heads at Yan Yu and said, "There is nothing strange about it...... It's also strange, senior brother never has no purpose......"
Yan Yu glanced around, always felt that there were many shadows around, and his heart was very uneasy, and after pondering for a while, he picked up the compass and paced around slowly.
"What is he doing?" As soon as the old men asked this, Zhao Tongxuan also made a silent gesture, and everyone's eyes were cast on Yan Yu, as if he was the way out at this moment.
Yan Yu walked around and turned back, this time his attention was no longer on his surroundings, all on the compass.
About ten minutes later, Yan Yu suddenly burst out laughing.
"Found it, found it!"
Everyone was also surprised, Zhao Tongxuan came over to take a look, and the pointer on the compass was spinning wildly!
He suddenly looked down and saw that a circle had been drawn under his feet, and although the marks were shallow, it should have been drawn with a sword!
Looking at the strange stones around him, Zhao Tongxuan couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "It's a senior brother, who would have thought of it!" ”
Yan Yu didn't know what he meant, but he knew that the compass in his hand was spinning rapidly, and then gradually slowed down, and finally pointed in a direction to the left!
"It's not that the compass is broken, but it can only be used on the periphery, once you step into the base range of the old devil, the compass will be affected and can no longer be used!"
"This is also the reason why Zhao Tongyi must hand over the compass in advance!"
Finding this undoubtedly provided a direction for Yan Yu and the others to take action next, and there was no way out, and they had hope to move forward again!
