Chapter 143: Fragrance
I was about to shake my head and say no, but her eyes were so bright in the dark that there was a hint of strangeness in her eyes, and of course I said yes.
The river god looked at me for a few seconds, "Sure, sure,"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and continued to walk, and she didn't look like I was looking for me to settle accounts because I poked her, I was immediately relieved, it seems that I don't need to beat around the bush to talk to her, just say it directly.
On this big night, there was still no one in the forest, and I was a little sleepy, so I chased after me and asked, "River God,"
"What are you doing?"
"So you're really Qin Qing? Your real name is this? I asked.
"Yes, have an opinion?" She asked me rhetorically without looking back.
I'm speechless, what opinion can I have??
When you don't have a veil, it's white, and when you wear a veil, it's black, if it weren't for my careful thinking just now, I really wouldn't think of the river god to that tyrant Qin Qing.
"A lot of people say you're ugly, why don't you just show your face?" I asked.
"So why do you care about other people's eyes?" She actually asked me, which surprised me, I thought she would go to someone else's house to rain a lot.
"Then I said you're ugly, aren't you angry?" I asked, meaning to let her lift the veil, I had seen her face anyway.
The river god who was walking in front suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at me, his eyes narrowed slightly, "What others say, I don't care, but you and I say it to your face?" ”
This made me a little embarrassed, what am I talking about? It seems that I still don't speak, I can only say, "I can say whatever you want,"
She turned her head and didn't bother to pay attention to me and continued, it seemed that she was not as difficult to get along with as rumored.
I asked, "River God, how much longer?" ”
"I'll be there tomorrow morning." She said, I'm a little relieved, people like the old river gods, to collect something, as long as there is a clue, it's actually similar to taking.
"How much have you raised?" I started to open the conversation.
"Why do you want to eat it too?" The river god asked rhetorically.
How can I eat this blessing? What's more, I can't eat it, because as long as it's Dancheng, there will be phoenix gall in it.
When I said this, the river god stopped talking.
Of course I quieted down until the next morning, when it was about time, but I was lucky enough to catch a hare that was sleeping too late, and I was so hungry that I was ready to roast it.
"River God, let's eat something first, it's almost there anyway," I said tiredly, wouldn't she be tired after walking like this all night?
I'm going to dig the soil later, and I'm a mortal who stays up all night and walks all night, and I'm about to collapse, and I can't bear it without eating.
The river god stopped, and I said here, I found a stone to sit on, and she stood and looked around, as if she was patrolling something, and with her by her side, of course I didn't have to worry about being attacked by something, and I began to deal with the hare quickly.
I still have some experience in making roast rabbits, and after processing it, it will be roasted, and after a while, it will be roasted until it is tempting and brown, and it exudes a fragrance.
The river god's eyes glanced at him occasionally, presumably attracted by the aroma, and I said, "Are you swallowing saliva?" ”
She was stunned, and her eyes immediately saw somewhere else.
After I baked it, I tore a hind leg for her, she hesitated, her eyes looked, and she didn't look, she guessed that she was also hungry, if one person estimated that she would resist.
"I don't want your money, I'll have more strength to eat." I say.
The river god went next, and gently took off the veil on her face, sure enough, it was Qin Qing with delicate facial features, but the feeling was still different, Qin Qing in a white dress had a sense of coldness, like a strong woman, but she in a black dress had a sense of indifference, like a female killer.
It's a strange feeling.
"Why doesn't it smell like salt?" The river god took a bite and asked, I said I didn't bring anything, it would be good to be able to roast it, who has nothing to bring salt on the body?
"Then why didn't you say that?" She continued.
I'm speechless, what's the use of saying it? Do you have it in the car?
She nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"Then you go get it," I said subconsciously, meaning why didn't you say it earlier? I knew I would be in the mountains for a few days.
The river god's eyes were slightly stunned, and he lowered his head and continued to eat without speaking, probably speechless.
When she finished eating, I gave her another front leg, and she followed, and I finished eating the rest, which was considered to have strength, although it was still very sleepy.
But it holds.
She continued to lead the way, and did not bring the veil anymore.
After the stop-and-go, she stopped at a small dirt bag, and I took out the digging tools and asked why we didn't look for the hole that they had gone into.
"Buried," said the river god, and I asked by whom?
In fact, I don't need to ask, I also know that it should be buried by the people in the mausoleum, after all, the old man said that his friend went in more than ten people, and when he came out, only three people came out, obviously, there was danger inside, and the tomb owner in the mausoleum may have woken up.
"The man in the mausoleum." Sure enough, the river god said so.
Whose mausoleum will be here in this barren mountain and wilderness? I shook my head, at this time, it's not the time to think about this, it's better to dig quickly, the two of us dig with tools, her strength is much greater than mine, and I have become an assistant.
After digging for more than an hour, I was tired and panting, her face was not red and out of breath, sure enough, the river god was the river god, suddenly, I went down with a shovel, and a spark came out, and the stone should have arrived.
I carefully peeled off the soil, sure enough, I saw a man-made stone, I asked the river god if he had explosives, she shook her head, and actually directly pried the stone open with a shovel, and it was as powerful as a god.
It was pitch black as ink, but the stone was opened, and a beam of light shot in, it was a tunnel, and there was an earthy smell coming out, which was particularly unpleasant.
I covered my nose, the river god jumped down directly, of course I also jumped down, I was the first time to this kind of mausoleum, I felt that jumping down was particularly eerie, the smell of earth in it was a sense of suffocation, I breathed several times in a row, it was barely adapted.
I immediately took out the flashlight in my backpack and irradiated it, it was really a built tunnel, very wide, very large, and stretched all the way through, and I felt that the craftsmanship of the ancients was really indescribable.
The river god was expressionless and began to walk inside, and sure enough, the strong people were not afraid to go anywhere.
"River God, whose mausoleum is this?" She doesn't know how long she's lived, she should know, right? I don't have a clue anyway.
"You ask me?" She actually asked rhetorically, and I nodded subconsciously.
"I want you to tell me," she said, and I was embarrassed.
I'm not an archaeologist, so how do I know?
Forget it, there's no need to know who this mausoleum is, just take the humanoid Lingzhi, anyway, follow the river god, she will find it.
After passing through a tunnel, I soon saw that at the end of the flashlight, there was a stone gate with no words on it, this can't be some kind of uninhabited tomb, right? I thought it was strange and walked over and thought about how to get in.
But I was suddenly creepy, because I saw a deformed hand inside the crack in this door, as if I wanted to crawl out when I was dying, but I was still locked inside.
This hand is not rotten, but has a meaty aroma, no, it should be a clear fragrance, what kind of smell is this? I couldn't help but ask,
"Humanoid ginseng." The river god's eyes flashed.
Really in there? I was surprised, but I wasn't worried about anything, the old man said, humanoid ginseng is not refined, there is no spiritual one, after all, it is not looking for ginseng essence.
In other words, the humanoid ginseng is in it, and it won't run, as long as it is found, but how to get in is a difficult problem.
I pry with a shovel, it's useless, and it's useless to push.
I asked if there was a mechanism?
There should be, otherwise how would someone else get in? I asked, the river god glanced around, looking for this switch, looking for more than ten minutes, suddenly she pressed some stone, actually sunken down, click, the closed stone door slowly opened.
The flashlight in my hand immediately shone into it, and before I could see anything, a fragrance rushed out, I was surprised, why is this humanoid ginseng so fragrant? The river god began to walk inside, and I followed in, and there were several corpses on the ground, probably the last time they came in, all of them died inside.
I cheered up the spirit, and when I stepped over several corpses, suddenly the flashlight shone on the fingers of a corpse, and the corpse wrote a few bloody words on his fingers, as if it was a suicide note.
Got it wrong? What went wrong? I was taken aback.
