When the Japanese said the word "ancient city", Guan Tiezhu turned his head to look at his father.

You Sifang knew that if he asked the father and son now, they would not necessarily tell the truth, so they had to ask the Japanese: "Is there an ancient city below?" How did you end up there? ”

The Japanese didn't explain much, but said, "We can't go tonight, but tomorrow when it's dawn, we'll go down again, and after going down, we'll get almost afternoon, and if it's dark, we'll find a hole and rest for another night, and if it's not dark, we'll go into the ancient city again." ”

You Sifang hurriedly asked, "Why can't you go in after dark?" ”

The Japanese only said for a long time: "There are youkai ...... there"

When it came to monsters, the expressions on the faces of the Guan father and son changed significantly, and Guan Dasheng hurriedly said, "Why don't you do this, my son and I will send these people down the mountain first?" ”

The Japanese stared at Guan Dasheng: "You are locals?" ”

Guan Dasheng smiled and nodded.

The Japanese walked into Guan Dasheng: "Listening to your tone, you know the existence of the ancient city, and you also know that there are monsters in it, so you don't dare to go, right?" ”

The Japanese asked directly, didn't go around in circles at all, and with a gun in his hand, Guan Dasheng could only give in in the end: "We have lived here for a few years, and we found that place when we were hunting in the early years, but there is an evil sect in that place, and animals don't dare to go there." ”

You Sifang asked, "Why?" ”

Guan Dasheng said nervously: "That's Wong Tai Sin's place." ”

The Japanese wondered: "Wong Tai Sin? ”

You Sifang said: "It's a weasel." ”

Guan Dasheng explained: "We didn't know what kind of place it was before, but a few years ago, we met a group of people who came from Guannei to hunt for treasures, and asked us to lead the way, saying that that place used to be an old city in Bohai Kingdom, and then something happened, and overnight, the people in the entire city disappeared, saying that they had offended Wong Tai Sin and were taken away by Wong Tai Sin. ”

You Sifang heard this: "Ridiculous! ”

Guan Dasheng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, ridiculous, brother, you think it's ridiculous, I don't think it's ridiculous, so, I really won't go, I'm going to go to you, okay?" My son and I were in charge of taking the other people down the mountain. ”

As he spoke, Guan Dasheng looked at the Japanese again and said: "Your people have confessed, saying that you want to see people in life and corpses in death, and I will take the corpse back to be regarded as a businessman, I just rely on the sky to eat, and it is not easy to eat with a mouthful of food." ”

Seeing that Guan Dasheng was so persistent, the Japanese had to nod their heads, and asked the two of them to find a way to make a raft after dawn, take their two companions down the mountain to make a mission, and they and You Sifang went to the ancient city to find the remaining person.

After nightfall, the Japanese had a full meal with Guan Dasheng's dry food, and then introduced himself, saying that his name was Kimura Shosheng, an investigator of the Manchurian Railway, who originally came to investigate the geological conditions in the area of Wenfang Mountain, who knew that a group of five people strayed into the ancient city, and something happened that night.

After Kimura Shosheng briefly recounted it, he didn't elaborate on the specific situation, and You Sifang hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”

Kimura Shosheng just looked at the bonfire and said lightly, "You'll know tomorrow." ”

The four of them accompanied the two corpses, and slept anxiously until dawn, and when the sun rose, Guan Dasheng and his son couldn't wait to go out to cut down trees and make a raft, tied up the two corpses and hurried down the mountain, without the slightest hesitation, and there were no superfluous words, not so much to go, but to escape.

Kimura stood there and watched the two fathers and sons drag the raft and disappear into the mountains and forests, then he looked at You Sifang and said, "Let's go." ”

On the way down the mountain to the ancient city of Shanxi, Kimura told You Sifang that the reason why he wanted to save that companion was very simple, because the person still had a complete set of geological exploration reports on him.

Only then did You Sifang understand that it was not so much to save his companions as to say that Kimura went back for the report, and judging from Kimura's tone, it seemed that the Mantetsu employee named Masato Nishio deliberately did not hand over the report, so as to prevent Kimura from not going back to save him.

As Kimura said, when they came to the vicinity of the mountain stream, it was already dark, and Kimura found a cave where he had stayed before, and warned Yu Sifang not to move any further, otherwise he would get into trouble like they had last time.

What is the so-called trouble? Kimura didn't want to say it explicitly, but just told You Sifang that as long as he helped him take out the report, even if he didn't save Nishio, it didn't matter, as long as You Sifang kept his mouth shut about this matter, he would never treat You Sifang badly after he went back.

Of course, You Sifang didn't believe Kimura, and his purpose was not to save people, but to find out what was going on here.

Because of the tiredness of going up and down the mountain during the day, You Sifang and Kimura quickly fell asleep, and when they slept until midnight, You Sifang was woken up by the sound of gongs and drums.

You Sifang opened his eyes, looked for the sound and walked out of the cave, looking into the mountain stream, but found that the direction of the ancient city was brightly lit, and countless figures were shaking, as if some kind of celebration was being held.

Just when You Sifang was wondering, Kimura appeared next to him and said, "When we were resting here that night, it was also because we saw this scene that we decided to go down and find out." ”

You Sifang pondered for a moment: "I have to go and see." ”

Kimura hurriedly grabbed him: "You don't want to die!" ”

You Sifang stopped and said, "Mr. Kimura, I never believed that there were ghosts, gods and monsters in this world. ”

Kimura looked at You Sifang and suddenly asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Ordinary people." After You Sifang finished speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction of the ancient city, wanting to see with his own eyes what was in the ancient city, was there really a monster? There are still people pretending to be ghosts there.

You Sifang cautiously came to the mountain stream, and when he looked at the ancient city where even the city walls were in tatters, he clearly saw that many people were dancing strange dances there, holding various flagpoles in their hands, and making strange noises in their mouths, and everyone there was wearing a mask, but because of the distance, You Sifang couldn't see the appearance of the mask clearly.

Just as You Sifang was about to get closer, he was grabbed by a hand, and he turned around and saw that it was Kimura.

Kimura said in a low voice: "Don't go directly into the city from here, there is a gap in the west, go in from there, the closest to the west tail." ”

You Sifang asked: "If all the monsters that are active in the ancient city now are the monsters you are talking about, then how can you be sure that Nishio is still alive?" Maybe he was already eaten by youkai. ”

"I'm not sure Nishio is still alive." Kimura said calmly, "I just wanted to get that report back, that's all." ”

You Sifang said coldly: "It's really cold-blooded." ”

Kimura responded: "This is not cold-blooded, it's just a duty, and I think Nishio should also understand, because we have long had the consciousness of sacrificing our lives for the motherland." ”

You Sifang no longer argued with Kimura, and went with him to the gap in the western wall, and from there he infiltrated the ancient city.

After entering the city, You Sifang was stunned by the scene in front of him, where is this ancient city? It is clearly a bustling city, the houses have no signs of being destroyed by the years, there are lights everywhere, lanterns and lanterns are hung everywhere, the only strange thing is that the people here are wearing colorful and strange masks, speaking a language that You Sifang does not understand.

You Sifang was secretly observing in the corner, and Kimura was standing nervously beside him, not daring to look out.

If this is really an inhabited city, then why didn't the Guan family dare to come in?

When You Sifang recalled this, Tang Qianlin interrupted him and asked, "Senior, the ancient city you are talking about is the Bohai Kingdom ruins above?" ”

Although Tang Qianlin didn't know where he was, he still habitually pointed upward.

You Sifang said: "That's right. ”

"Isn't that right?" Ni Xiaowan said on the side, "I remember that on the way to Gongrong Village, we didn't see any mountains? I haven't heard them mention the name of Wenfang Mountain? ”

Ye Da said on the side: "There is indeed a place of Wenfang Mountain, but it is not here, but in the east, which belongs to the Changbai Mountain Range, next to Ladder Mountain. ”

An Ran was puzzled: "Ladder Mountain? ”

Ye Da explained: "It is Wanda Mountain, and Wanda means ladder in Manchu. ”

You Sifang shook his head and said, "No, Wenfang Mountain is obviously near the Mudanjiang River, I won't be mistaken." ”

Tang Qianlin looked at You Sifang and knew that he had no reason to lie, so he looked at Li Yunfan who was holding Yi Mochen's body in the corner: "Yunfan, where is Wenfang Mountain?" ”

Li Yunfan raised his head: "It's not in Mudanjiang, it's indeed in the area of Changbai Mountain." ”

An Ran took out the map from his backpack, looked for it for a while, pointed to the edge of Changbai Mountain on the map and said, "Look, Ming Ming Wenfang Mountain is here." ”

You Sifang also looked at the map closely, and wondered, "How can this be?" ”

Tang Qianlin thought for a while, and asked You Sifang: "Senior, you are also a hunter, you must have heard about the tragedy that happened in Sichuan back then, right?" ”

You Sifang asked: "You mean the ape murder case in Ape Gate Mountain?" ”

Tang Qianlin said: "That's right, where is Ape Gate Mountain, do you remember?" ”

You Sifang said without thinking: "Sichuan West." ”

Tang Qianlin was stunned for two seconds: "Senior, Ape Gate Mountain is in northern Sichuan, and it belongs to Jiangyou County in Mianzhou, how can it be in western Sichuan?" ”

"Ape Gate Mountain is obviously near Baima Pass, and it belongs to the territory of Deyang, how can it be ......" You Sifang patted his head when he said this, and said, "We are fundamentally from different worlds, and these places should be different in the first place." ”

Tang Qianlin said: "That's right, that's what I meant, in fact, when you told me at the beginning that we came from different worlds, I was still a little skeptical. It seems that Asda's words are true, there are indeed dimensional worlds, which are basically the same, and the people in each world are desperately looking for the Shaman Spirit Palace. ”

An Ran asked: "Senior, did you find the Japanese named Nishio later?" ”

You Sifang replied: "I found it, it's in a mansion in the ancient city......"

When Kimura led You Sifang to the house where Nishio was hiding, he had to weave through the crowded streets. Originally, You Sifang's plan was to find a mask to wear and blend into the crowd, but he couldn't find a place to sell masks everywhere, so he had to wrap his head and walk in.

However, the two men who blended into the crowd were not noticed by anyone, as if the others could not see the two of them at all, and sometimes they were bumped into by an oncoming person, who just looked around suspiciously, and then shook his head and walked away.
