Chapter 69: Fatigue of Life and Death
After listening to what she said, I suddenly felt that her tone seemed to have a solution to the current situation, so I asked her directly.
Ye Xiaolu said: "During the time you were in a coma, I have also been thinking about all kinds of things that happened to us in this cave, who is the person who blows Xun and the old lady with scars on her face, what is the structure of this place, what method do they use to operate the mechanism here, if they are really the guardians of this Tang tomb, it is impossible for no one to enter here for thousands of years, not to mention that this is not the interior of the deep mountains and old forests, it is not very difficult to get in, and a simple miasma swamp can't stop many professional people, And how did these people get out? ”
I said, "You get to the point, don't let me guess." ”
She said: "The solution is in that underground river, judging from the first time we entered here, in fact, all the mechanisms are not to take our lives, but to guide us out, the hole at the top of the mountain, and the underground river that can directly rush to the next cave, and even when we jumped into the water in the third cave, we were going to rush out directly, but unlucky, we hit something, and by inertia we were thrown up." ”
I said, "You mean we don't need to look for a spot in the 360-degree rock wall, we just need to smash the cover of the underground river with that pickaxe, at least there is hope in terms of difficulty, then we can jump into the water again, and we can definitely get out in our current state." ”
Ye Xiaolu said 'um', I didn't ink, spit on my hand and stood up and said, "Then what are you waiting for, Xiao Nizi, give my brother the lamp and start drying." ”
"No, I can let you out."
Before she could reply to me, a faint voice came from a distance, which seemed familiar, it was the person who played the horn.
Ye Xiaolu and I were shocked at the time, so we shone the flashlight towards the source of the sound, and saw a middle-aged man in a gray coarse cloth long coat with his hands behind his back, accompanied by an elegant breath, slowly walking towards us, and there was a big thing beside him, much taller than his height, and when he got closer, it turned out to be a big frog.
I sighed, "It seems that this thing is the thing that saved us that night, with such a large lung capacity, no wonder it screams like a tiger's roar." ”
The man smiled slightly: "This Mizusawa dragon frog has been with me for some years, as for why it can grow so big, I am also very surprised, don't talk nonsense, since the two of you can break the four major trials of 'life and death fatigue', and you don't want to covet this ancient tomb, then I should let the two of you go over the mountain, please." ”
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and motioned for us to follow him, and I asked, "What do you mean by 'fatigue of life and death'?" ”
He said: "The fatigue of life and death, starting from greed, feeling endless pain with greed, and in the process of satisfying desires, it may not be satisfactory. My ancestors had a foresight and set up many mechanisms for future generations who wanted to plot his peaceful place, the first level: life, leaving you a chance, you can escape through that hole, the second level: death, if you continue to obsess to immortality, what is the difference between it and that group of dead corpses, the third level: fatigue, even if you understand the true meaning, then this is a very tiring process, the fourth level: labor ......"
I interrupted him: "I know that laborers are the most beautiful people, but I didn't expect that your ancestor was still a great thinker and educator. ”
He smiled: "I don't know if the two of you want to cross this camel mountain, do you also want to take the blue water divine pearl?" ”
I said: "Yes, since it was all a misunderstanding before, although we also suffered some hardships, but after all, the matter has also been said, there is no need to be too entangled, but we are also forced to be helpless, and the current time is very urgent, and the predecessors seem to be people who have lived here for a long time. ”
The man said: "I heard you just talk about the head lowering technique in the land of the South Seas, as well as the 'Blood Yin Corpse Baby' that appeared in the Qinling Corpse Raising Land hundreds of years ago, but I can only tell you that there are countless strange people and strange people who have bred for thousands of years in our Chinese land, and it is definitely not comparable to those barbarian small techniques abroad, not to mention that the 'Blood Yin Corpse Baby' failed, even if it succeeds, it may not be able to obtain the Water Avoiding Divine Pearl." ”
Seeing that this man was definitely not going to tell us the method, of course I did hear some concern, and after sighing, I didn't know how to tell him the ins and outs of the matter, and I hoped to get some good advice from him.
Speaking of which, when we walked out of the darkness, the first scene after seeing the light was actually the place where Ye Xiaolu and I were camping that night, and even the equipment that fell in the cave was there, and the two of them were happy in their hearts, and the man smiled and said to us: "Brother Jiang, do you know what my surname is?" ”
I swallowed my head and said tentatively, "You don't know the surname Bai, I'm afraid to hear this surname now." ”
He laughed: "The little surname is Wang, in Xia Wang Zhengyang!" ”
I woke up like a dream, and immediately thought: "You are the descendant of the Wang Da shopkeeper of the Xiongfeng Dart Bureau, and it can be said that you are the same sect as Bai Jia Beer and Bai Bai, it turns out that the secret of your Wang family's waiting is not the water avoidance divine bead, but this ancient tomb, the reason why you would rather die at that time than tell Master Si about this matter is also to avoid risks." ”
Wang Zhengyang nodded: "Yes, the secret of this mountain has nothing to do with the water-avoiding divine bead, but it is extremely important to our Wang family, as for what it is, I don't want to say more, but if there are insatiable people who are intimate, even if they pass the four levels of 'life and death fatigue', there will be more difficult deaths waiting for them in the future." ”
At this time, Ye Xiaolu suddenly asked, "May I ask, how many days have we been trapped here." ”
Wang Zhengyang said: "Today is the fourth day, according to your expectations, you can go back to reorganize equipment and intelligence, I also hope you have to think about it clearly, by the way, there is one more thing, Bai Jiabei asked me to tell you, thanks to the help of Bai Xiao prodigy and the Lin family brothers, the 'Blood Yin Corpse Baby' has been eliminated." ”
Hearing this, I was overjoyed, so I walked to the mountaineering bag, picked it up and planned to go back first, but Ye Xiaolu stood still, as if she was thinking about something, we didn't bother her, knowing that this little girl must be making some decisions.
After a long time, she gave me an unusually determined look and said, "I want to keep going." ”
I asked, "You've decided?" ”
Ye Xiaolu nodded.
I put down my bag and said to Wang Zhengyang: "You should also know the place where the water droplets are hidden, can you tell us more?" ”
Wang Zhengyang motioned for us to follow him again, and then said: "Since the two of you have made up your mind, I am not forced to stay, for many years, there are countless people who want to go over, everyone has their own reasons, I will not interfere too much, and now I also read that we have some origins, and I have been trapped for many days, and I feel a little guilty in my heart, so I will help you, come with me first, and we will have a good meal." ”
After hearing this, I feel happier than now when I told me that I won five million, of course, it's just now, Ye Xiaolu is not the same, although our hiking bag has been found, there will be some food in it, but it is just some compressed dry food, it is unpalatable to death, and now if you can really have a good meal, it is tantamount to a stimulant shot.
A few people walked through the darkness again, turned on the flashlight and looked, still beside the turbulent underground river, but this time they walked for a short time and saw the light in front of the cave, although they wanted to ask all the questions about all the organs in their stomachs, but at this time there were obviously more important things waiting for us.
When we arrived at the back of the mountain, the river in front of us was indeed several times wider due to the confluence of countless tributaries, and as Wang Zhengyang arrived at a small grass hut behind the mountain, there was a rickety old man cooking, we knew that it should be the old lady Scarface who brought us into the game, she also bowed down and saluted when she saw us, not to say much, and we didn't want to be polite, so we anxiously asked Wang Zhengyang about the water avoidance bead.
Wang Zhengyang laughed again: "If you want to count the distance here, you have to walk for two days, in this primeval forest, there are countless dangers, you may not be able to get by, but I said to help you, you can rest assured that the problem of the road, I will personally take you over, if it goes well, you can get there at dusk." ”
After hearing this, it was not a surprise, but a fright, Wang Zhengyang has lived here for a long time, it is basically impossible to say who can be more familiar with him in this world, and since he can say that he can send us to arrive at dusk, there is definitely a way to listen to his tone.
But after he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and continued: "The water avoidance divine bead is hidden in a crypt called Python Mountain, but that Python Mountain is not like mine, and the camel mountain is named because of its resemblance to a camel, Brother Jiang, can you understand." ”
Of course, I understand, there must be only one reason, that is, there are specialties in the python mountain.
Ye Xiaolu and I looked at each other with ugly faces, and then looked at Wang Zhengyang, trying to get any help or advice from him, but at this time, I saw that he was not that kind of free and easy expression, but said with a wry smile: "I can't help but be curious about that python mountain A few times, but the things inside are really beyond my ability to describe, I can only say that it is easy for you to see the water-avoiding beads, but it is almost impossible to take the water-avoiding beads." ”
I wanted to ask again, but he waved his hand to stop us, and then said, "Let's eat first, it's all some wild game in the mountains, don't dislike it, all your doubts will naturally be known in a few hours." ”
Although we were very disappointed to hear him say this, it still did not affect our appetite, Ye Xiaolu and I nibbled on a wild boar leg before leaving satisfied.
When leaving, Wang Zhengyang stood by the river and took out the Xun and blew it, not long after, but saw two giant trees side by side in the distance drifting towards us against the river, I thought to myself, this is strange, I have heard a lot of people who can control animals with sound, but it is the first time I have heard of controlling plants.
But just when I showed admiration, the wood came closer, and at a glance, it turned out to be dragged over by countless churning fish, this group of fish heard Ye Xiaolu say that there is a unique fish species called Qinling Salmon in Qinling, which is also a rare animal in a certain way.
Although I was a little disappointed not to see the control plant, but it was powerful enough to call the fish, not much to say at the moment, the two of us rode on one according to Wang Zhengyang's instructions, and he also walked straight to the other one, standing in the middle, this picture reminds me of Tao Baibai......
What I didn't expect was that the dragon frog also went up, Wang Zhengyang seemed to see my doubt, and said with a smile: "We can't get by without it, in this forest, poisonous insects, rats and ants are very afraid of this dragon frog, as long as there is it, nothing dares to come, you have met a saber-toothed lizard before, you should feel its power." ”
The two nodded, I was looking at the dragon frog, and I actually saw a very calm expression from its expression, obviously this old baby has also become a fine, then again, since I went out, from the original bloodthirsty mouse to the current dragon frog, why is it that one is bigger than the other, as if I am in a mutated world.
To get back to the point, according to the distance, we will have to drift in the water for four hours before we can reach the python mountain that hides the water beads.
