At this time, I suddenly remembered that when Du Kang just got out of the car, he had a secret conversation with Lao Hu, and he was also curious at this time, so I asked: "Senior Du, what did you say to Lao Hu an hour ago?" ”

Du Kang clasped his hands and said in a low voice: "At that time, I asked him if he could tell you about the Qilin gall. ”

I said, "I heard that during the Battle of Yashan, the Qilin gall disappeared, why is it in the hands of Lao Hu now?" Could it be that Lao Hu Zushang is a maritime merchant or a sea bandit? ”

Du Kang waved his hand: "I don't know much about the history of the Hu family, and I can't be sure at present, whether their family's unicorn gall is the same thing as the unicorn gall recorded in ancient books." ”

I asked him, "Where did the Hu family's unicorn gall go?" ”

Du Kang: "It is said to be buried in the ancestral grave, when Xiao Hu's grandfather passed away, Xiao Hu's father had opened an ancestral grave, the so-called open grave into the coffin, is to open the old mound, and then put the new deceased people in, that time when the grave was opened, Xiao Hu was also present, according to him, he saw a rotten coffin in the grave hole, under the half of the coffin board, pressed a fist-sized green bead, the sun shone along the hole, reflected on the beads, he saw that there seemed to be a thick fog rolling in the beads. If he remembered the scene correctly, even if the beads in the ancestral tomb were not unicorn gall, they should be very similar to unicorn gall. ”

I clasped my hands and couldn't help frowning: "So, if you want to get that bead, you have to dig open the ancestral grave of the Hu family?" ”

Du Kang also looked helpless: "Digging other people's ancestral graves, this is a matter that damages yin morality, we can't do it." However, there are exceptions to everything, if Xiao Hu can't withstand this catastrophe, causing the armor to break the bloodline, the ancestral grave of the Hu family will have to be dug up. ”

I nodded: "If the descendants die due to the catastrophe, causing the family to be interrupted, the ancestral grave will definitely be evil, and it is indeed impossible not to dig it." But what if Lao Hu survived the catastrophe? ”

Du Kang shook his head: "He has no cultivation on him, and he has not made merits when he was young, so he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand this catastrophe." If he can really survive, we can only wait until he dies, and then open the ancestral tomb by the hands of his descendants. ”

Emotionally speaking, I don't want anything to happen to Lao Hu, but at the same time, I want to get the things in the grave as soon as possible.

The mood at the time was indeed quite conflicted.

After a short while, Du Kang said to me again: "I don't know if the people from Buzhoushan have followed, I think, it is better to contact the Long family as soon as possible, if you wait until the people from Buzhoushan touch the village, I am afraid that the people of the old Long family will not be able to help much." ”

I nodded, but didn't say much.

As early as a year ago, I was repeatedly told not to act rashly until I figured out the ins and outs of the matter. Practical also said that if you don't know the details of your opponent, it's best not to act rashly, and try to hide yourself in the shadows, not only as a last resort.

Now I don't know the details of the stalker, contacting the Long family now may not be the best choice, but if it is delayed any longer, I am also worried that the people of Buzhou Mountain will come too quickly, after all, they have a lot of people, but there are only me and Du Kang in the village, Li Huaishan can only barely count half of the combat power, after all, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, if it is surrounded by Buzhou Mountain, the consequences are unpredictable.

Du Kang took out his mobile phone and went to contact the people of the Long family, I still held my hands and stood silently at the entrance of the village, looking towards the village, while waiting anxiously, waiting for Wu Lin's letter.

Until the sun began to sink in the west, there was still no movement on Wu Lin's side, Du Kang bought some food from the villagers, and then took me and Li Huaishan to the old house, tonight, we will live here.

I asked Du Kang why the people in the village looked vigilant and hostile when they saw me, as if people from outside were not welcome in the village at the moment.

Du Kang said that the villagers here were frightened by the outsiders, when Lao Hu built a pavilion in the west of the village, he invited a lot of migrant workers from other places, among these people there are a few young people with bad character, often stealing chickens and dogs in the village, and also injured the local villagers, and later the villagers learned that their luck was the octagonal pavilion built by outsiders to take away, since then they have become more and more afraid of outsiders, where there are outsiders coming in, they will be very vigilant.

I think that the people in this village should have very little contact with the outside society, and in their eyes, the world seems to be divided into two parts, one part is "inside the village" and the other part is "outside the village".

In their opinion, the world inside the village may not always be kind, but the outside world will probably always be full of malice towards them.

At night, Du Kang and I got up the stove and cooked some simple meals, and Li Huaishan sat by the stove to roast the fire, even if the black smoke in the stove was rising, and he couldn't stop coughing, he didn't want to leave.

Now that the New Year is approaching again, looking back, from that time to Guizhou to now, a full nine years have passed in a blink of an eye, but even after so many years, Lao Li still can't forget the warmth and coldness he experienced back then.

The word "warm cold" was coined by Li Huaishan himself, which means boiling frogs in warm water, cold to the bones, this guy's language level is lower than mine, and he can make such a word, also because the cold in the south left a deep impression on him.

According to Li Huaishan's recollection, Guizhou in 09 years is really cold, but the cold is completely different from the cold in the north, the cold in the north, especially the cold in the northeast, is like a sharpened knife, cut on the body, making people's skin open flesh, but the cold in Guizhou is more like a boiled frog in warm water, when you just come into contact with this cold, you can hardly feel anything, but this cold still has a very strong moisture, it will follow the pores on your body, little by little into the skin, and finally attach to the bones, no matter how you shiver, It's just firmly attached, and you can't get rid of it no matter what.

The cold in the north is that you know that it exists, and you will be prepared in advance. The cold of the south, but it is a real cold, it is hidden deeply, at first you don't know it exists, but when you really feel it, it is a maggot of tarsal bones, and it has taken deep roots in your body.

Due to the devouring of the Ice Silkworm Gu in my early years, my ability to perceive the temperature has decreased a lot, and I really can't understand what Li Huaishan felt at that time, but seeing him shrinking and leaning against the stove, I also know that he was not feeling well at that time.

After dinner, Li Huaishan was a little better, at least wrapped in a sleeping bag and no longer shivered, Du Kang lit an oil lamp, hugged a book, leaned in front of the lamp and watched quietly, I kept swiping my mobile phone, I just hoped that Wu Lin could contact me earlier.

Until the darkest part of the night, the mobile phone screen suddenly lit up dazzlingly, and eight messages were received in the text message box one after another.

I couldn't contain the excitement in my heart, and immediately clicked on these text messages one by one.

Wu Lin's mobile phone number has never been fixed, and the number used to send the letter this time is also an unfamiliar signal, but just looking at the content of the message, I also know that these text messages are from his arm.

Eight text messages, each of which is a complete set of character information, Wu Lin said, after entering Guizhou, Zhou Shan will not dare to let too many people act together, except for Wu Lin, only eight people have entered the territory of Guizhou, and these eight people, none of them are not disciples of Zhou Mountain, all of them are masters invited from outside.

Everyone has no specific name, only a vague code name, the eight code names are 魑, charm, 魍, 魉, rhino, 兕 (sì), bear, 罴 (pí), at first I thought that Bu Zhou Shan was to hide the identity of these eight people, so he deliberately gave such a code name, until Du Kang also came over, he looked at the mobile phone screen, frowned and said: "No, Zhou Shan is really capable, and he actually invited the eight heroes of the mound (bo)." ”

I had never heard of the name of the Eight Masters of the Mozuka, so I asked, "What are these people doing, and why are they willing to be dispatched by Zhou Shan." ”

Du Kang looked disdainful: "These eight people are all wanted evil cultivators in the industry, in the early years, they had a gathering in Lingzuka Mountain, blood for righteousness, formed brothers of the opposite sex, and gave themselves the name of 'Eight Masters of Lingzuka' without shame." These eight people, although they have a bad reputation, but their cultivation is all high, and if Zhou Shan can move them, they must have made a bloody investment. ”

I said, "Listen to what Senior Du means, these eight people, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with, right?" ”

Du Kang frowned twice: "It's not just that it's hard to deal with, if the eight of them join forces, even if they come in person, it will be difficult to get a bargain." ”

So fierce?

I raised my fingers, rubbed my chin, and after a few moments, asked Du Kang, "What are our chances of winning?" ”

Du Kang shook his head helplessly: "If my stupid apprentice is here, we can still fight, but now I can't contact him, just rely on the three of us, I'm afraid there is no chance of winning." ”

I said, "Of the eight, who is the most capable?" ”

Du Kang thought for a while and said, "Among the eight masters, led by Song Tiefu, his cultivation should be the strongest among the eight. Oh, Song Tiefu, it's the '魑' in the Eight Masterpieces. However, when it comes to actual combat, Song Tiefu can only rank second, and the strongest in actual combat is Bi Kun, who ranks eighth, that is, the 'Zhen' among the eight masters. ”

I said, "Except for these two people, how are the remaining six people cultivating?" ”

Du Kang said: "The cultivation of the eight people is not low, but if there is no Song Tiefu and Bi Kun, the combat power of the eight heroes will drop by at least half." ”

I nodded, moved my fingers quickly, and sent a message back to Wu Lin: "Is it convenient to speak?" ”

What I'm most worried about now is that Wu Lin threw away his phone after sending those few text messages, and he may not be able to see the messages I send now.

Fortunately, he quickly replied: "It's inconvenient to answer the phone, text contact." ”

I immediately sent a text message: "Tell me where you are, and the personality traits of those eight people." ”

Wu Lin replied: "Guiyang." I don't have much contact with them, and I will try to investigate the information you want before noon tomorrow, and don't contact me again during this period. ”
