Chapter 109: Dagger
Hearing Grimace say this, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my spine. First of all, in order to lighten the load, we only had two bottles of 500 milliliters of mineral water in the equipment, and the food had been eaten before departure, but for the convenience of mobility, we only ate six minutes full. The calorie burn was so high that I could already feel a little hungry. If we had just walked half the way, and the mechanism on the way was still similar to the previous one, then with my physical strength, I might not be able to go to the deepest part alive, and I would have to turn back and return to the camp at the top of Tianchi Mountain, and I would definitely die if there was no accident. Thinking about it, I let out a long sigh, and became more and more skeptical about the level of this team. The ups and downs along the way and a dagger, the anger accumulated in my heart was about to explode.
I was about to get angry, but Mengya on the side sneered, glared at Grimace Zhang, sighed, and then spat at the mouth: "Our team leader this time is Grimace Zhang Sanye, can't this little thing be handled?" ”
She muttered as if talking to herself, and she didn't make a grimace. Grimace glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't have a good seizure. I saw that he followed up and joked and said strange things: "Cough, it's a big deal to accompany the owner of this bucket to bury it." ”
As soon as the grimace Zhang heard the two of us sing and scold him secretly, two cold lights appeared in his eyes, and it seemed that his murderous intent had risen, but before he could attack, he was stopped by Hou Qiankun, who was smiling on the side, and stretched out his hand: "Third child, Qiu Tong, you don't have to be so pessimistic, this is not the time to recite the funeral scriptures." The old marquis lit another cigarette and handed it to Grimace as if to calm him down. In my experience, old man, there should be a second team in this fight. ”
After he said this, we were all taken aback, and the grimace couldn't help frowning, and he took a puff of the cigarette in his hand: "Second brother, how can you see it?" ”
Hou Qiankun looked at the old lover behind me with a smile again, and also sighed deeply: "Qiu Tong was hit by a dagger when he crossed the viaduct, and I followed in the dark at that time, this dagger was shot from Qiu Tong's right rear, and I saw in a trance that this person was about one meter seven tall, and he was dressed ......" He hesitated for a moment and pointed to his old lover. "Similar to that girl."
As soon as I heard this, I looked back at my old lover, but before I could ask, the old lover sneered: "Second Master Hou, according to your meaning, I made this dagger?" This is strange, I have already walked over from the viaduct and stood on the shore with everyone, so many pairs of eyes are staring at me, I can still commit murder, then you really overestimate me, besides, you don't know the relationship between me and Qiu Tong, right? Qiu Tong and I are in the camp at the top of Tianchi Mountain, you also take this matter into account, do you still need to say that? ”
Hou Qiankun was stunned for a moment and nodded, taking a deep breath of his cigarette: "I didn't mean that, I just said that there is another team." ”
The old lover sneered again, lowered his head and dusted off his black cloak: "Second master, if you want to say that, I have to ask carefully." As soon as she turned around, she looked at the grimace. Zhang Sanye, I have something unclear and I want to ask for advice. Just now, when we broke three pipes, you were also shot by someone. At that time, a girl came to save you, you don't know who this person is. ”
Grimace Zhang listened to the question, frowned, and seemed to be extremely angry when he mentioned this person, and he was already trembling slightly, but he didn't say a word, just glanced at the old lover out of the corner of his eye.
"Another section, the dagger that came down from Qiu Tong's body should still be in the waist of your boots, right? Take it out and let's study it, shall we? ”
As soon as he finished saying this, his grimace turned iron, "Poof! He spit out the cigarette in his mouth on the ground, and he already hung out an evil look, his eyes shot out two cold lights, his face was full of murderous aura, and his hand was already unconsciously on the handle of his long knife.
"The third child, it's okay." At this time, Hou Qiankun pinched the cigarette in his hand, put his hand on his shoulder, and shook it as if to imply that Grimace Zhang remained calm. "It's okay, I'll carry something around, isn't it just a dagger."
The grimace creaked and grinded his teeth, the anger in his heart seemed to disappear, and he stretched out his hand and took out a dagger from the waistband of his boot and handed it to Hou Qiankun, glaring at me and my old lover coldly.
In the flashlight, I stared at the dagger. I saw that the size of this dagger is twenty or thirty centimeters including the handle, the blade part is very special, the material is a bit like "Damascus steel", but the texture is not so regular, similar to the trend of tree bark. This dagger is not only double-edged, but all the lines have a thin blade. There are many black-brown spots in the ravine, which seem to be bloodstains, and the blade faintly emits brilliance under the flashlight, which makes people tremble with the bloodstains. The handle is white, the material is a bit like a bone and harder than the bone, and there are a lot of lines that are intentionally carved on it, but all of them have been polished, which should have played a role in preventing hand slippage. Under the stalk, a sharp piece is sharpened, like an awl, and it is also very sharp, like the antlers of a sika deer. This kind of system shows that the owner of this dagger is a very flexible person, may be known for assassination, the use of these ravines in the sharp blade as long as it touches the opponent's skin, as long as the "razor" horizontal cut is a line of blood, the awl on the handle can prevent the enemy from sneak attack, just like the ancient blade "across the tiger fence" is very practical.
I was looking at this strangely shaped and delicate dagger, and Meng Yayi on the side reached out and snatched the dagger from Grimace's hand, and examined it carefully under the bright light of the flashlight. Suddenly, she gasped, didn't say a word, and her face seemed to be a little unsightly.
"What's wrong?" I leaned over to ask, glancing at where she was looking.
The furrow at the interface between the blade and the handle does not seem to be quite the same as the previous one, with some faults that are not as coherent as the preceding ravine, as if the furrow at the bottom of the quarter of the blade is intentionally separated from the front three-quarters gully. If you look closely, the color also seems to be darker than the front. The dark color does not seem to be caused by blood, but by the deliberate effect of forging and tempering.
"You see something, don't squint." I leaned over to Mengya's side and whispered.
Mengya's face was gloomy: "No." ”
Another perfunctory sentence confused me, as if I was the only outsider in this group.
The dagger was circulated for everyone to see, and no one remembered any useful information. Hou Qiankun looked around at everyone and saw that there was no doubt, handed the dagger back to Grimace's hand, and smiled: "I just said it's nothing, isn't it just a dagger." ”
Grimace took the dagger with a cigarette in his mouth, deliberately pretended to be casual and inserted the dagger back into the waist of his boots, and snorted coldly: "I just said to be a trophy, I didn't expect you to have so many things." After that, there was a slight smug look on his face.
I stood in the midst of this crowd, feeling deceived in my heart, and I couldn't speak. How could this be just an ordinary dagger? It was as if I was standing in a cage about to sink to the bottom, holding the key and not knowing how to insert it into the keyhole, and I was breathless. Thinking of this, I sighed again, and there was only helplessness left in my heart.
"Ahem...... Cough...... Wait! ”
Just when I was in desperation, the weak voice of the seriously injured Xu Fatzi beside me came out. "This dagger, this dagger has words on it!"
As soon as he finished saying this, I felt like a sharp flash in my heart, and there were words on the dagger? I stared at the crowd with wide eyes.
I saw a hint of murder on the grimace's face, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Xu Yang who was sitting on the ground resting. Everyone else looked surprised, but surprise and surprise were different. For example, the kaleidoscope, the surprise of the Dragon King and Tie Guan Liu can be seen to be surprised by the information. And Hou Qiankun was obviously very surprised, Meng Ya simply did not react, and the old lover sneered slightly on the corner of his mouth. At this glance, I am even more sure of my inference, this murderer must be very familiar with Grimace Zhang, and even say that he is a cronie. And Meng Yahou Qiankun and her old lover know it, but they are hiding the truth, and I am the only one who is kept in the dark. But what makes me wonder is that only Xu Yang can see that the lines on it are words, and I, the Dragon King, and even the kaleidoscope of Bogu Tongjin can't see it?
