Volume 2 The Stone Man of the Western Regions The Stone Man of the Western Regions Chapter 65: Into the Canyon
I had been so focused on the material of the Spiriting Banner that I didn't look at the pattern on it. After being reminded by Yiyi, I began to look up at the top of the conjuring banner that I was touching.
The fat man, like me, was not paying attention to the banner at all, but looking around, and the pattern he was looking at at was the one I was looking at. Then he said to me in surprise: "I said Xiao Su, it's really true!" This is not the fucking passage to Zhao Tuo's underground palace, is that... That.."
"Around the corner, what's on the fourth mural!" I continued with him.
The fat man patted his thigh, nodded, and said to me in a slightly higher voice than just now, "Yes! It's that headless general! I was thinking about taking the mural off and taking it with me when I left! It's gilded, and it can't go through this millennia of baptism, it must not be extraordinary! ”
I ignored his remorse, and looked carefully at the pattern on the conjuring banner in front of me. Although the background is a little different, the Headless General and his mount, the creature I have always thought of as a giant rat, are exactly the same as the fourth mural in the dungeon. It's just that the background here is surrounded by fog clouds, and the headless general is stepping on the clouds to fall from the sky.
If I hadn't taken a few steps back and shone my flashlight on the spirit flag, I wouldn't have been able to see the whole picture.
I asked the fat man, do you know what the headless general up there means?
The fat man pondered for a while and said, "Xiao Su, it seems that this third mysterious force that has been mixed in is the "Headless State" organization that has always been hostile to our Su and Zhang families!" Do you remember the story Aunt Ming told us? ”
I thought about it and suddenly knew what it meant to be fat!
"You mean this headless general is the ancient god of war "Xingtian"! ”
The fat man nodded.
Yiyi didn't know the content of the story that Aunt Ming told the two of us, and asked me what the story was. I told her that the story was a bit complicated and could involve thousands of years of history. I don't have the fat man's language talent, so when I rescue Master Liu, let the fat man tell you about it.
As soon as Yiyi heard me mention the matter of saving Master Liu, she took the flashlight off the spirit flag and took a look at Sister Zhaoning's position. I knew that Yiyi was starting to worry about her father's safety again, so I also took the flashlight and asked the fat man to stop studying and meet with Sister Ning and the others first.
The location of the spirit banner is in the middle of the depression in the ground of the entire hill, and it is an equal distance from the surrounding hills. That is, the dot position of this circular geography!
As we approached Sister Ning's position, I asked Fat Man and Yiyi if they knew what kind of creature the headless general's mount was.
The fat man and Yiyi both said that they had never seen each other.
The fat man thought for a while, and added: "This Xingtian can be regarded as a ruthless character in ancient times. he
The mount is also a creature of ancient times, after thousands of years of human beings eating and drinking, this creature has long been extinct! ”
I sarcastically said to the fat man: "You fucking know how to eat, and you can also associate the shape of that big mouse with eating, so you are not afraid of the plague!"
The fat man said: "Xiao Su, this is your prejudice against me!" What I say is based on history! ”
Yiyi mended the knife next to him: "Senior brother, don't mention history, your little historical foundation may not be as good as mine!" When your father forced you to study history, didn't you often pee away! Later, my father locked all the doors for you, and put multiple toilets in the house! Now that room still smells, and I haven't dared to enter it all these years! ”
The fat man took a flashlight to relieve his embarrassment, and he didn't know whose face it was, Sister Ning immediately came over more than a dozen flashlight beams, as if there was a positioning, all of them on the fat man's face.
The fat man was stunned by the strong light of the flashlight, and immediately covered his eyes, and shouted in his mouth: "Damn!" Who the is in a daze with me! ”
The walkie-talkie rang, and Sister Ning said as if responding to a fat man's question: "Su Mo, tell Zhang Facai, don't keep holding a flashlight!"
I responded to her: "Sister Ning is wise!"
At this moment, I began to admire Sister Ning's judgment, or Sister Ning's eyesight, which could tell that it was the fat man who was just in a trance and not me.
After more than a dozen flashlight beams were withdrawn, the fat man moved his arm. first shouted twice at Sister Ning's location: "Eh, Fairy Ning, let's go over now, don't use a flashlight to express your feelings about me!"
Seeing that Sister Ning didn't respond, she began to say to Yiyi again: "Xiao Nizi, you look down on your senior brother and me." I was a few years old and had no idea how important those books were. Now I'm the leader of our industry, and I have to understand everything! You see, senior brother, I still have a book with me to study! ”
I looked back and saw the fat man pull out a magazine. The fat man moved relatively quickly, and after taking it out, he took it back. But I still saw the cover, which was a foreign beauty in a bikini.
Before we were about to join Sister Ning and the others, the fat man said again, "Xiao Su, have you heard of Chiyou's mount, the Iron Eater?"
I said, "Yes, isn't it our current national treasure, the giant panda?"
After saying that, I knew what the fat man was trying to say. Chi You and Xingtian are of the same era, so it is also said that this iron-eating beast giant panda and the creature that looks like a big mouse are also an era! Today's giant panda population is extremely rare, as the fat man said, it may be that the headless general Xingtian's mount, after so many thousands of years, has really become extinct!
The fat man nodded at me as if he could hear my heart, and then walked quickly towards Sister Ning
I went to be courteous without discipline!
I shone my flashlight at the hills behind Sister Ning and them, the color of the mountains was the same as the hills in other places on the Gobi Desert, all of them were earthy and yellow. Yiyi came to me and said: "This color is the unique color of the Yadan landform, and in my country, many deserts have such landforms. It is a typical wind-erosion landform, also known as wind-erosion ridge groove, or wind-erosion ridge. ”
I nodded, I had heard something about the formation of the Yadan landform. Generally in very arid areas, such as deserts, Gobi and other places. Or an area where there used to be a river, which dried up after the baptism of time. Due to the special environment of this kind of place, the ground will produce a lot of cracks, and the wind will blow along the cracks, and the cracks will become larger and larger, so that the original flat ground will develop into many irregular dorsal fin ridges and wide and shallow grooves.
Yiyi then said in a nice voice and a strange tone, "Yadan." It sounds like Xinjiang.
Then he said to me, "Yadan, it was Wei. Uygur language, meaning steep mound. ”
It's the first time I've heard this explanation, and it's a little fresh.
The fat man didn't know where to take two packets of dumplings, ate one by himself, and threw me a pack. I handed it to Yiyi and Xiaoqian, and they only took a small portion. Xiaodou came to us and asked if we needed to prepare anything, saying that the scorpion had already sent back a message, and the space below was extremely large, and it was impossible to see the edge.
The fat man patted the two bags behind him and said, "It's ready, just a word from Sister Ning, and we'll be readygo!"
Before we met Sister Ning, Sister Ning had already made arrangements. Outside the canyon, a few people were left as answers, which is Sister Ning's usual style of doing things.
Before leaving, Sister Ning handed out a pistol to me, the fat man and Yiyi. The fat man weighed it a few times and said, "This thing is a little too small, and it doesn't fit my brother's temperament."
I took a look, and it did not fit in kind, the size of the pistol was in the hands of the fat man, as if it were a toy. Because his hands are too big and fat!
I said to him, "Be content, this place on the frontier is more strictly inspected." Although we are not thieves and thieves, just to protect ourselves, it is a felony to be caught in possession of a firearm. It's not easy to have this kind of pistol, but my second uncle and your Uncle Zhang's ability can be regarded as heavenly! ”
After listening to my analysis, the fat man also nodded, asked Sister Ning for some more bullets, and then put the pistol in his backpack. Something suddenly occurred to me, and I asked the fat man, "Are you all in your so-called tomb robbing suit?" Except for the smell of the black donkey's hooves, I haven't seen you use anything else! ”
After hearing what I said, the fat man immediately snorted several times on the ground and said, "Xiao Su, stop talking, you are really not a fucking mess!" How can it be used to pray before going to the grave
Those who wear these equipment can usually use things like black donkey hooves, which means that we have descended into a very dangerous tomb. That's a particularly dangerous situation, we can all die for a lifetime, you are a little roast chicken and not afraid of a big tiger, blind fucking fluttering wings! ”
I said in my heart, too, if I really touch something like zongzi, I will be numb!
Before entering the canyon, the fat man handed the walkie-talkie to the brother who was answering outside, and told him: "My subordinate Comrade Peter will call you in a moment, and you will tell him that you have found the entrance to the "Inner Land", and let him bring more dry food and water when he comes, preferably with a large plate of chicken and soju." Tell him I'll wait for him to drink two cups below, no, drink two bowls, the cups are too small! ”
That brother is one of the few people who is familiar with the fat man, let the fat man go on the road with peace of mind, and he will do the rest of the matter.
The fat man nodded happily to express his gratitude, and then walked up to me and showed off to me that he had a good character. I said, didn't you listen to everyone let you go on the road, and the rest will be done for you!
Only then did the fat man turn around and scolded the brother for not being righteous.
The time we entered the canyon was 3:50 a.m. Of course, this early morning is relative to the rest of China, and in this part of the frontier, this time happens to be the middle of the night, and it is also the time when I feel the darkest feeling.
Halfway into the canyon, I used my flashlight to take a look at the location of the conjuring banner in the middle of the hill's depression! The three white flags swayed in the wind against the backdrop of the night and the light of my flashlight, looking very strange and mysterious.
I don't know what we're going to be in next.
