Volume 2 The Stone Man of the Western Regions The Stone Man of the Western Regions Chapter 35: Peach Blossom Array

We walked in the fog for a while, but the thunder never reached the point.

Zhang Xiuxiu and the other three were on the periphery of me and Xiaoqian, and surrounded me and Xiaoqian in a form of a fat man.

I know they want to keep us both safe, and I have no objection to that, I am indeed the weakest one compared to them. Even, to say something embarrassing, I may not have as much strength as Xiaoqian!

We walked forward for a while, and I stopped the fat man and asked him if there was a problem with the direction we were going, and the fat man replied very simply, telling me to obey the arrangements of the organization, saying that he was the organization.

It wasn't until I saw the "Three Mountains to the Moon" that he blew into the sky that I realized how unreliable the organization in his mouth was!

After a long lap, we were back to square one. I said to the fat man, your "Three Mountains to the Moon" is not really useless, his role is to let us know where our starting point is.

The fat man said that I underestimated him, the leader in the gold world, and said that without his "Three Mountains to the Moon", I am afraid that a little ghost would have jumped out of the fog and eaten me!

His words are not a deterrent to me, Zhang Xiuxiu and the four of them are estimated to have seen a lot of big scenes, and they have not been stopped by the fat man's words. On the contrary, Xiao Qian's body trembled a little.

I asked the fat man to stop these sensational words, and at the same time touched Xiaoqian's cold hand, trying to pass on my body temperature to her. Seeing Xiaoqian's state, I realized that her trembling was not caused by the fat man's words, but because she was really cold.

I quickly undressed and put it on top of her, puffing for her hands. In the meantime, the fat man kept looking at me with white eyes, sarcastically mocking me for not being single-minded. said that I was eating her sister's pot and looking at Xiaoqian's pot.

I wanted to explain, but on second thought, I explained something to this big fat man. This person who doesn't keep the door on his lips may not be distracted by what he says.

As we approached the fat man's "Three Mountains to the Moon", the fat man began to mutter like a spell again. While the fat man was reciting the incantation with great interest, I looked at what he called the "Three Mountains to the Moon" and wondered, could this shabby thing really summon the souls of the dead and transcend them, as the fat man said?

Although I said that the fat man's magic stick was unreliable, I still trusted him in my heart. The fat man's unreliability only occasionally appears when he is sure that he is safe, and whenever he encounters a critical juncture, this big fat man's "magic stick" has never dropped the chain.

As I looked at the three stone bars that were erected, I suddenly felt that something was wrong. I clearly remember the order of the fat man when he placed these three stones, the middle was the longest and the highest, and both sides were only half the height of the middle stone, but the order in front of me actually became from high to low!

I was just about to remind the fat man, who was still muttering the mantra, that the order of the stones had changed, when I found that the fat man suddenly stopped reading. Instead, he stared at the forest behind the rocks for a moment!

Almost at the same time, the submachine guns of Zhang Xiuxiu and the other three on both sides of me rang out!

The sound of the four guns was very abrupt, and the bullets grazed the muzzles of the guns, cutting several tongues of fire in the fog. At the moment of the gunshot, a sound familiar to me came from the fog in front of us! Akin's hiss!

Now, I have been conditioned by this sound, and as soon as this voice sounds, my heart starts beating wildly!

Under the trance of tongues of fire and flashlight beams, I saw the silhouette of a shadow in the forest! Where is Ah Jin's figure, it is clearly the shadow of a monster!

The monster was barely shorter than the trees in the woods, and it had tentacles-like things swaying in the mist!

Zhang Xiuxiu and the other three moved in unison, holding a flashlight under the butt of the gun with one hand to illuminate, and pressing the gusset with the other. Their marksmanship was so accurate that even when the fog obscured their view, they didn't deviate too far from their sight!

Almost half of the bullets were on the monster's body, and many more were on its tentacles, because the distance was not very far, and I could clearly hear the dull sound of the bullets entering the flesh as they hit the body.

The fire quickly overwhelmed the monster, and it began to turn and run towards the woods! As he ran, he hissed like Ah Jin.

Seeing the monster fleeing, the fat man took the lead in reacting, chased after him quickly, and said with a curse in his mouth: "Fuck! I want to see what kind of monster you are! ”

The fat man's reaction was so fast that I simply didn't have time to stop it. Zhang Xiuxiu and the other three who were shooting, seeing that their target was gone, also reacted quickly and followed the footsteps of the fat man!

I pulled Xiao Qian, who was still shivering, and began to chase them in the direction they ran!

But soon, I found that except for Xiao Qian, all I had left was a thick fog! Even the trees in the forest I entered couldn't see clearly if they weren't close!

The moment he entered the forest, a cold air rushed up directly from the depths of the ground! Straight from the soles of my feet into my body, and then all over my body.

At that time, I even felt that this cold air was even more piercing than the cold body temperature of Xiao Qian who was being pulled by me!

"You... Are you cold..."

When I felt the cold and began to shiver, I found that Xiao Qian, who was shivering outside the forest, had calmed down at the moment. Look at me with concerned eyes and ask me if I'm cold.

I looked at Xiaoqian curiously, and she took off the clothes I had draped on her, wanting to follow my example and put them on for me. But because of my height, I couldn't hook my shoulders at all, so I reached out and took the clothes, patted her hand that was still hooking my height, and then put it on myself.

At this time, the figures of the fat man and Zhang Xiuxiu were completely invisible.

I tried to retreat out of the woods, but I found that I couldn't find the way I came, and within the fog, a few steps away, there was a tree, and it was some irregular trees arranged in a haphazard manner.

When I pulled Xiaoqian to find the fat man and the way out, I asked Xiaoqian why she had this opposite change from people.

Xiao Qian's answer surprised me very much, she said that whenever she approached a certain tomb, outside the tomb, she would become trembling, and when she was inside the tomb, her condition would be alleviated until it was completely stabilized!

This special physique of hers was discovered shortly after the second uncle rescued her, and with this special physical change of hers, in the past days, she helped the second uncle find a lot of hard-to-find tombs!

What makes me even more incomprehensible is that this change in her body has not appeared again since she left the tomb range!

This change in her body makes me vaguely feel that the forest we are currently in is not simple. According to Xiao Qian, her body will begin to tremble when she approaches the tomb, and when she enters the tomb, it will return to normal. So does it mean that this forest where we are located is a big tomb!

This kind of conjecture makes me a little hard to believe! I studied archaeology for two years, and even though I was repulsed by that archaeological knowledge, the cramming method of teaching, and all the books I read, never recorded the use of a forest as a tomb.

And when we first came here, after the fat man found out that "ghosts hit the wall", Xiaoqian didn't have this kind of trembling reaction! In other words, Xiaoqian's reaction was just now!

Wrong! I suddenly realized that my thinking had entered a misunderstanding! The misconception is that I always take what I see as real!

Although as the saying goes: hearing is false, seeing is believing! But sometimes, what people see with their eyes is not necessarily true!

This idea came about because I remembered the "Three Mountains to the Moon" made by the fat man, and the "Three Mountains to the Moon" we saw for the second time was obviously touched by someone for the first time!

Perhaps, it is not that someone has tampered with it, but the "Three Mountains to the Moon" that we saw for the second time is simply a replica! The forest we entered was not the first time we had seen it! Here, it's a new place!

I finally understood the meaning of "ghosts hitting the wall", not an invisible wall built by some little ghost as the fat man explained, so that you can't get out!

Instead, the layout here is almost identical, giving people the illusion that they are back to square one, when in fact the two places are not the same place at all!

The emergence of this idea is entirely due to the inspiration of the Peach Blossom Array of Huang Yaoshi, the owner of Peach Blossom Island in Jin Yong's novel.

The space we are in, in addition to the mist, is also full of trees, although it is not a peach blossom, but this principle is almost the same as Huang Yaoshi's formation. I don't know what inspiration Mr. Jin Yong was for writing this paragraph. However, it was at this critical moment that inspired me, who was in danger!

If I make it out alive this time, I think I should visit his old man and thank him for his inspiration.

Xiaoqian followed me very close under my tug, and she didn't speak, just followed me obediently.

I'm not an elm pimple, I can clearly feel Xiaoqian's favor for me, but right now, I already have the existence of Yiyi in my heart, and it is difficult for any girl to melt into my heart. However, I don't know how to tell Xiaoqian what I think. I don't think with her attitude, even if I say what I think, she won't change her attitude towards me.

So, I think, I still keep these thoughts buried in my heart. In this way, she will not have the pain of rejection.
