Judging from the content of the notes, this should be the last place Liu Ranqing came before he died, and he died at home shortly after going out from here. If the year is about the same, this ancient corpse should have something to do with Liu Ranqing.

I crouched down, hoping to find some clues, but I didn't know what I was trying to find, maybe it was just the realism of touching time that made me want to connect what I knew to reality to the story I knew.

At this time, Liu Shiwu said: "Don't look for it, I've looked for it all, and I can't use it at all." ”

I was stunned, "Aren't there any of these pills you're looking for?" ”

"No, it's all turned into ashes, and there is nothing that can be used at all, so I picked up an empty bottle, and when I found the medicine inside," Liu Shidong waved at me a colorful gourd bottle with the word "longevity" in his hand, "These small objects are all slag, and in such a dry place, they can rust so badly." ”

I looked at the sword in my hand, it was very well preserved, and I couldn't help but wonder. The small iron pieces are rusty and clean, but this sword is so well preserved, this can be explained by the special material. But Liu Ranqing's notes said that the vitality here is vigorous, and even the bamboo slips can be kept green for thousands of years, so why can't these pills be preserved? If the so-called anger can't preserve the elixir, then the medicine that Liu Shishi is looking for is just a handful of scum, why is it not mentioned in Liu Ranqing's notes?

I wanted to tell Liu about these things, but after thinking about it for so long, the road ahead must be even more dangerous, and I have to take him back, and it is not a good thing to let him break his mind at this time.

I beckoned to him, "Since it's useless, let's put it back again, and when you're done, pack up and leave." ”

Liu Dongxi nodded and agreed, and the two of them packed up and put back into the tree hole, Liu Dongxi also knelt down and bowed, and after getting up, he saw that I didn't think so, and said with a smile: "This Dao Chang and the ancestors are either friends or opponents, no matter how you say it, they are all seniors, and it is natural for me to bow down." ”

I listened to him and couldn't help but want to laugh at him, and said with a smile, "You kid can't see that he is a cultural person, there is a big guy over there, and he is not small, why don't you go over and take a look?" ”

Liu Dongxi laughed and said, "Naturally, I want to go to worship!" ”

The two of them examined the snake corpse, Liu Dongxi peeled off a few large pieces of snake skin and tied them around his waist, saying that he wanted to wait for the air to make ropes, I suggested that he pull out the python's teeth to make arrows, but he said that the python's teeth were too small to make arrows. Besides, there was nothing else to gain, and neither of us had any interest in eating the snake meat, so we simply threw it there. After picking up the bow and arrows, the short spear continued on the road.

Liu Dongxin was very interested, and his mouth kept chattering, my shoulder hurt to death, and he was a little irritable when he chattered, "Liu thing, have you eaten bee feces?" Glad to be like this. ”

Liu Dongxi smiled: "Brother An, don't say it, this is more beautiful than eating bee feces!" ”

I asked, "And what do you eat?" ”

"Brother An, did you take a closer look at the python just now?"

"See?" I feel a little strange, can I still not see this? Could it be that Liu Dong's brain was squeezed out just now?

"I don't know the name of this python, but it was mentioned in the notes that this winged python haunts here! I don't know anything else, at least we're not in the wrong place. ”

I'm a little depressed, it doesn't matter to me whether this place is the place Liu Ranqing said or not, I just want to get out quickly and return to the world I am familiar with.

There are still these unusually thick trees around, we walk very carefully, almost every half an hour Liu Dongwu climbs up the tree to observe, there must be more than one giant python just now, and then pop out at this time, we have to hang here.

This is actually very strange, pythons generally live in tropical water and rainforests, and such a large python can grow in a dry place like the north, especially here. It doesn't make sense for this ectotherm to grow so big in the north, although the python will not stop growing for the rest of its life, but on land he cannot use the buoyancy of the water, and will soon cross a critical point and be crushed by his own weight. These pythons are probably really legendary animals, and they cannot be reasoned with.

It was so stressful that I had to use these thoughts to entertain my mind, or I would have to go crazy with the thrill of the journey.

The mountain gradually flattened, and the trees had a tendency to become smaller and more numerous, which gradually became unfavorable for walking. Liu Dongxi asked me to open the way with a knife, and I was reluctant to give him the sword, so I handed him the police dagger, and he took it to fiddle with it for a while, as if admiring it.

After a short walk, it was getting late, the sun was blocked by the mountain wall, and a morning and dusk line was coming towards us at a speed visible to the naked eye. We started looking for a place to camp for the night.

There was no higher ground than the top of the mountain, and none of us dared to spend the night on the ground, so we chose a tree less than a hug thick.

This tree is long, and a few thick branches stretch out in mid-air, just enough to pick up a platform, and the whole tree is not thick, and it is quite far from the tree next to it, and it is estimated that the python will not choose to pass from this tree.

The two of us cut down some branches and weaved them on the tree, and made a simple platform, with dirt in the middle to make a fire.

After a busy time, it was already six o'clock, there was no light at all, and the temperature was about to drop, so I leaned on the low bib woven from the branches and chatted with Liu Yi.

This fence was made by Liu Dongxi, and it is said that it can reflect the heat radiation of the bonfire and enhance the heating effect. I didn't know much about spending the night in the wilderness, so I followed him, and now it seems to be working well.

I vaguely remember that snakes can rely on heat sensing to locate their prey, and it can be dangerous to start a campfire. Liu Shifu said that such a big fire was fine. I thought it might be that this strong heat source didn't become prey for snakes, so I didn't pay attention to it.

Anyway, there is nothing to do, today's experience is exciting enough, both of us are exhausted, I was bitten and fell, but it's not a big deal, Liu stuff may have hurt some internal organs, always coughing up some blood foam, although he himself said that it was okay, I didn't dare to take it lightly, insisted that he sleep I will be on duty for the night.

The bonfire burned very warmly, and Liu fell asleep after eating a compressed biscuit, and he was snoring at the moment.

I leaned on a thick branch and looked out, listening to the beeping of the campfire and the snoring of Liu Shi, but my mind was thinking about something else. Another day has passed, and no progress has almost given me my life, and I don't know what will happen tomorrow. Now it is estimated that the unit has become a mess, and I don't know if my wife knows. If you don't know, you must be watching variety shows on the Internet with snacks at this time, if you know, you probably have been looking for me everywhere, this tough girl looks soft and weak, but I know what kind of energy she can burst out.

In fact, in such a wood, with a bonfire lit, it is difficult to see what is in the distance. I just feel that there is a faint place everywhere, and what looks like something.

Seeing that there was a fog in the distance, I suddenly remembered the image of Liu Dongxi's Xiaolongren before, what was it that would wrap people? What is the origin of fish in the water? Who is that bronze chain? Who is the dead Taoist priest? What does it have to do with Liu Ranqing? What secrets does this place hide? Most importantly, what exactly is Liu Dongxi looking for?

The questions on my mind came one after another, and I felt like I was about to become the host of the Discovery show. Maybe the answers to these questions are as prosaic as the hard mysteries on the show, but who can tell me?
