Volume 3, Dragon Plains Ancient Land_Chapter 47, Waiting for the Rabbit
The fat man said this unintentionally, but I heard it in my ears was something else. This centipede is a member of the Nine Directions pattern, that is, part of the seal, it can't get too far away from this black land, and it can be seen from a dead snake that no creature can survive in this black land, so it can't forage nearby.
The fat man was right, someone was feeding it, in other words, someone knew about the existence of this place, and was still taking care of this seal!
Is it someone from Zhongtianmen? If it's someone from Zhongtianmen, why haven't we met each other?
"Leave this alone, let's spread out and look around!" I opened my mouth and shouted, "Find a place like this, first determine all the locations of the Nine Directions Pattern, and then find the sealed place through these locations." Break them one by one! ”
The big guy immediately dispersed after hearing this, and I glanced back at Senior Guan next to me. He hadn't spoken since last night, and he hadn't given any opinion. I hesitated for a moment and walked over and said, "Senior, I'm not wrong about the nine-party pattern, right?" ”
He didn't speak, his eyes were closed, so that if I hadn't been able to tell he was breathing, I might have thought he was dead.
"Senior......" I tried to ask a few questions, but there was still no answer, and I had no choice but to walk away.
Fat man they searched for a day, the result is still relatively good, found three pieces of three yin and four grievances of the place, I simply made a map, from the map can be seen, if the nine-square pattern is according to the east, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, northwest to arrange, we have found that the four pieces of three yin and four grievances fingers to fill in is just right, then you can basically determine the location of the other three yin and four grievances.
"Shanzi, judging from the picture you draw, it seems that the place in the middle is still our ancestral hall! Wait, look at this corner, this corner is already relatively close to Xuanming Temple, but we haven't found any three yin and four grievances in this area. Didn't you say before that the corpse witch under Xuanming Temple was actually the guard of the Yeyuan Ancestor? Could it be that Xuanming Temple is also one of these pieces? As soon as the fat man said this, I immediately nodded, the sealing pattern is large and small, and the three pieces of three yin and four grievances we found later are also different in size. Xuanming Temple is near here, and judging from the pattern, it should indeed be the guard of Ye Yuan.
"In this way, continue to look according to this pattern, and then determine the location of all the Nine Directions pattern, and tomorrow we will break them one by one!"
At night, in the moonlit treetops, I crouched next to the slaughtered centipede, the earth on which had been re-covered. The fat man came over and whispered, "What are you looking at?" ”
I replied softly, "That centipede is so big, it must have a lot of food, and I guess if someone really feeds it, it will definitely come here twice in three days." I'd like to take a squatting here tonight and see if I can bump into it! ”
"Okay, I'll be with you." The fat man muttered.
"It's okay, you go back to sleep, everyone has been busy all day today, I have set some traps around the black dirt in front of me, as long as someone approaches, they will step on the line on the ground, the line is connected to a few bells, and it shakes when it shakes. I'll be able to find out right away, don't worry. The fat man was really tired enough to choke after listening to this, and after holding on for a while, he retreated to the back to sleep. I sat behind a tree and lit a cigarette, waited for about ten minutes, smoked two cigarettes, and found no movement. Thinking about it, if the cigarette in his hand doesn't move after smoking, he will be confused for a while, and there will be a bell alarm anyway. Unexpectedly, I was smoking a cigarette when I saw a figure slowly walking towards me, and I couldn't see clearly in the dark light, and my heart immediately became nervous! Hurriedly extinguished the cigarette butt and prepared for battle according to the Tushan knife. The other party pushed away a few branches and came to me, at this moment, I jumped up from the ground at once, and the Tushan knife was already half unsheathed, so I saw clearly that it was Tang Yuyan who was standing in front of me! Quickly stopped, and inserted the Tushan knife back.
"What are you doing?" She asked, looking at me strangely.
"No ......, nothing ......" I didn't necessarily tell her, I almost killed her just now. She nodded, took a jug of water and handed it to me, "I'll bring you some water." ”
I really didn't see that this girl was still careful, and after taking the water, she smiled and said, "Thank you, I've been squatting here for a long time, and I'm really a little thirsty." ”
When I drank water, she simply sat next to me, it was hot in the woods at night, it didn't matter if our old man was dirty, but after all, it was a girl's house, and during the day, I asked her and Yuan Feng to open a room in the guest house in the village and take a bath. But at night the woods were damp, and the girls were sweating profusely, and a faint fragrance wafted over. I'm also a young man with strong blood here, and I suddenly couldn't resist it, so I quickly poured out some water and wiped it on my face, secretly thinking in my heart: You can't mess around.
"What's wrong with you?" The girl also asked me, and I hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's hot, wipe your face." ”
"Oh, by the way, will anyone come in the evening?" She asked curiously.
After the topic diverged, I felt better, shook my head and said, "I don't know, how can I know when the rabbit is coming, you better go back to sleep quickly." ”
"It's hot, I can't sleep, and Cui Zhen is still snoring, well, I've been woken up several times, and Yuan Feng sleeps with cotton." I wanted to laugh when I heard this, it's really like that, the fat man's snoring is really powerful, one after another, and it's also a "life-breaking snoring", that is, the kind of snoring that suddenly stops halfway, and chokes as if he is out of breath for a long time, and then suddenly plummets for thousands of miles. And the snoring sound is usually more than one after another without stopping. I usually sleep in a guest house room with the fat man, and I have to stuff cotton to sleep, and I guess Luo Qiong can fall asleep, because this guy also snores, and the two of them often snort in a row.
"Then I'll find you some cotton, just get used to it." I said with a wry smile.
"It's okay, forget it, I can't sleep anyway, so I'll come and have a look. By the way, I haven't asked you why you also have a holiday with Zhongtianmen? Why do you want to get other people's ancestors? She asked curiously.
I still have reservations about her, and I haven't said a lot of things, after all, Su Ri'an looks like an ordinary girl now, but after all, she is the reincarnation of the ancestor of Zhongtianmen, and she will awaken one day. I smiled bitterly and said: "There are a lot of historical problems left over from here, and in general, it is a holiday, and the grudge is not light." ”
I frowned and was thinking about how to answer, when suddenly there was a "jingle bell" sound behind me, I suddenly became nervous, looked back, and Tang Yuyan behind me asked strangely: "Where did the bell come from?" ”
I hurriedly made a silent gesture to her, and then looked intently. Through the branches and leaves, you can see that in the black dirt where the centipede is not far away, a shadow has appeared, and the figure looks like a normal adult man, but he walks a little strangely, as if he is lame. Because although I can't see the figure clearly, judging from the amplitude of the swing of the shoulders up and down, it seems to be a bump up and down, and I feel unsteady when walking. Holding a bucket-like object in his hand, he slowly got closer and closer.
I didn't expect it to be really rewarding, I originally used this trick to wait for the rabbit just to try my luck, I never thought that luck was really so good!
I pulled out the Tushan knife, and in order to prevent the other party from escaping, I would rush out and do it as soon as possible. The other party had already walked to a place about ten meters away from me, and at this time I could see that the other party was wearing an old green military uniform, looking very dirty and embarrassed, and carrying an iron bucket in his hand, which seemed to be filled with flesh and blood.
He then walked over to the black dirt, poured all the contents of the bucket onto the black dirt, and then clapped his hands continuously before stepping back. I thought this was to let the centipede come out to eat, but after waiting for a while and not seeing the shadow of the centipede, he was a little anxious, and when he wanted to go up to check, I rushed out of the woods behind me with a Tushan knife.
