Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Sleepless Night

"I think we can go back to-morrow, because the fire has passed.

"Well, it's okay, after all, the fire on the ground will basically be extinguished tomorrow, and only the fire is still burning forward."

For Yao'er, it seems that this forest he is familiar with can no longer be familiar, so he doesn't know, in that forest, there is such an ancient tomb?

Thinking of this, I became suspicious of him, so what is the purpose of this person here?

Is he really living here to honor his mother?

Soon the night came, and the carriage was unloaded, and the horses were tethered to the grass, and they were told to graze, while the sheep were watched by the two sheepdogs of the O'er family.

Since there were dogs, and so many people, there were no sentry guards tonight, and they all slept in the carriage.

Before leaving, Jiu'er brought sheepskin and blankets in Yangpu, so he slept in the car and didn't feel how cold it was, and besides, it should be more than 200 kilometers away from the glacier. It's supposed to be autumn.

I haven't slept well for a few days, and everyone is relieved to sleep. When I was sleeping, I listened to the dog barking, and the barking was very eager.

"Hurry up, there's a situation." As I spoke, I jumped out of the carriage.

Several other people in the car also sat up, the monkey Peng Fei, and the young man, Jiu'er all got off the ground, and each picked up his own guns and daggers and other items.

Yao'er, with a rifle in his hand, and Jiu'er too, the two of them are quite advanced. So I was even more suspicious of the two of them, whether these two people were also tomb robbers of some tomb robbery gang, and they must be staying here for tomb robbing. The rhetoric of the owe is just an excuse.

The cat bent over and walked in the direction of the dog's bite, Jiu'er, me and Peng Fei followed, but the monkey held his pouting handle tightly and guarded the old professor.

We walked in the direction of the dog bite, and when the two dogs saw that their master was coming, they pounced on them and tore at them with a bunch of black things.

Qiao'er, Peng Fei and I all took flashlights and shone together like a group of black things, and when I saw that it was a group of wild dogs. The leader of the wild dogs is a big male dog. The fangs on the side of the mouth are long. As soon as I saw that look, it was very fierce.

At this time, the two shepherd dogs were biting around the male wild dog, but the male wild dog was the size of a calf, and its skin was thick and thick.

"Some wild dogs, with guns." I say.

"I'll see it." Peng Fei said.

"They're getting close to the flock, don't you see? Only this male dog is attracting sheepdogs. With a gun, it won't work if you're afraid for a while. Peng Fei said, looking very anxious.

At this moment, the male wild dog suddenly opened his mouth and bit the neck of a sheepdog, and bit the sheepdog to death.

"Peng" A gunshot rang out, Jiu'er fired, and the bullet hit the wild dog's waist, which didn't seem to have much effect, and the wild dog pounced like another sheepdog.

At the same time, the large group of wild dogs pounced on the sheep.

The sheep blew up and fled in all directions. It's really hard for you to use any weapon, after all, in this dark night, you can't tell which one is a sheep and which one is a wild dog.

"Monkey, monkey." I yelled, "Where's your fireworks?" ”

This is what the monkey saw in an archaeological book, and the tomb robber was holding a flare, but he said that it was like a firework. As soon as I shouted, the monkey immediately understood. He quickly took out a two-foot-long firework from his satchel and lit it.

Just listen to the bang, the fireworks rise into the air, and a huge scene of thousands of trees and pear blossoms blooming. The bright sparks, frightened by the wild dogs, howled, scattered and fled, and in a moment there was no shadow.

The sheep also stopped because of the darkness.

A few of us hurriedly led the only remaining sheepdog to find the scattered sheep, and it was not until dawn that we could barely find more than half of the sheep.

"Forget it, let's go back." After Yao'er finished speaking, he took out some mutton from the fire that had been buried in the ash heap last night, and everyone ate it, and then put on the carriage, pulled some dead sheep, and a few of us, just like the way we came.

Fortunately, there were dogs and sheep, and they remembered the path they had walked, and although they had been caught on fire, they were still able to return to the sheep farm.

The sheep farm no longer existed, and it was burned down by the fire, so the owe had to say, "Since God, don't let you survive here, then we will do these sheep, send them to the mother, and let everyone eat them, and they should be able to eat for a winter, so let's start the spring and persuade the mother to leave here, after all, people can't be resurrected after death." ”

"Brother Yao'er is right, let's help you persuade your mother, and when we finish archaeology, let's go back to the city with us." The old professor said.

Yao'er smiled and said, "Thank you, old professor, then that's it, let's go." ”

The car moved forward, and the shepherd dogs behind drove the sheep to the strange village.

After all, I took the sheep and walked for three whole days before returning to the strange village. When I arrived at the village, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

The four people left behind swarmed out, crying and laughing, and made a fuss until midnight, and everyone went to sleep.

Since they arrived at the so-called home, everyone slept until noon the next day, and then they got up one after another, because they were too hungry and got up to find food.

Yan Nannan and Cai Yushu Gu Hao were busy and had already cooked fresh mutton. And then I noticed that Xia Tong seemed to be sick again.

I'm very curious, why is Xia Tong's illness sometimes so serious, and sometimes like a good person?

I couldn't figure it out, and what was even more strange was that every time she was sick, as long as she saw me, she would be fine, and this time when she came back, she didn't seem to recognize me, which made me miserable. Is it because I threw her down?

All afternoon, I was with Xia Tong, and I hoped she would get better and get to know me. But to no avail, she seemed to have completely forgotten me this time!

At night, everyone was asleep, but I couldn't sleep, so I dragged the old professor next to me, and the two of them got up and walked out of the courtyard.

"Little Lizi, what's wrong? Look at you. ”

"Well, old professor. I've never had a chance to tell you one thing. ”

"Isn't it about the tomb?" The old professor asked.

"yes." I said, "There is indeed a second stone chamber under that ancient tomb, and there are some jewels and jade in it. But at that time, I saw a mouse scurrying out, I didn't care about much, so I took a few easy items, one for each person, you can give it to you, you give it to Peng Fei and the monkey, after all, it's not good to let me go, it seems that I am very greedy. ”

"This should be a national thing, how can you say that it is for us?" The old professor had a puzzled look on his face.

I had no choice but to say, "Old professor, the master of the stone chamber left a message, saying: Everyone who comes here has a treasure, and it is considered a fateful person." It must not be sold, and it must not be handed over to others. That's why I did it, and I think I'd better do what he says, or I think I'll be punished. ”

"Really?" The old professor looked at me with scrutinizing eyes.

I can't say, after all, the master and his old man have been waiting for me for so many years, and I can't go against his last wishes.

"That's it, old professor, you should trust me."

The old professor sighed and said, "Son, I believe it." If you have something to hide from me, then you will also hide it from me, but you should keep these few things, after all, as soon as you say it, there is a treasure in the basement, they may not believe it, just this thing, they may not say it, if you are not allowed to go back, will they not say it? I think you should keep it for yourself, maybe it will be useful to you. ”

"But, old professor, this is the old man's advice, and I can't disobey it, so I just took a few pieces, otherwise I wouldn't have taken a single one."

The old professor, seeing that I was very insistent, still said, "You can keep it, maybe you can keep it and it can be useful." ”

I had no choice but to obey and put it away.

"Let's go to the glacier tomorrow, after all, we've been here for a long time, what do you think?" The old professor asked.

"I don't think anything will come out of rushing there, but it's okay to go and see."

"Okay, let's go and see first, let's go back to our room and sleep, after all, it's late at night."

After the two of them finished speaking, they walked into the courtyard, but saw that the old woman's house was still lit.

"Haven't they slept yet?" The old professor said strangely.

"Old professor, let's go and listen, what are they doing, is Xia Tong making trouble again?"

However, when I heard the voice in the room, my old professor and I were stupid!
