The route disappears

When I saw Gao Moli, I was stunned for a moment, and then involuntarily withdrew my hands from my legs, and let Gu Yixin roll my trouser legs past my knees.

She stared at my rock-hard grayish-brown calves and exclaimed, "God! Is the spell you are talking about? ”

"Huh? Oh, yes! I said, you probably won't believe it! I casually responded to Gu Yixin's exclamation.

Gao Moli stood outside the door, like a statue, that is, he did not come in or leave, he just looked at us calmly and lightly.

I coughed dryly, pulled off my trouser legs, and said to Gao Moli, "You...... What are you doing standing outside? Come on in! ”

Gao Moli had no intention of coming in.

Gu Yixin sat up straight again, turned his head to look out of the door, smiled at Gao Moli, and asked, "Little brother, is there something wrong?" ”

Gao Moli didn't answer, but looked at me, and said faintly: "There is something wrong with the map, go and take a look." ”

Gao Moli's words were like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which made my already worried trip to the sand sea instantly cloudy.

"Damn! Something went wrong with the map?! I asked, surprised, and Gollum climbed out of bed, put on his shoes, and prepared to take a look.

When Gu Yixin heard the news, he immediately frowned, and he didn't bother to ask about the story that happened to me for a while, and hurriedly followed me and Gao Moli to the box where the sixth master was.

The sixth master's box was next door to us, and when we pushed the door in, we saw the sixth master sitting on the edge of the bed, and a dark yellow sheepskin map was spread on the square table in front of him. Zhang Xuefeng stood beside the sixth master, and the divine medicine woman was lying on the bed opposite the sixth master, her face facing inward, looking like she was asleep.

I glanced around and immediately understood that there were six masters, Gao Moli, Zhang Xuefeng and Shen Yao Po living in this box, among these four people, except for the sixth master, whose social skills were normal, the other three were all masters who were fished out of the ice cave - cold and silent! The atmosphere must have been deadly silent.

Seeing me and Gu Yixin follow Gao Moli into the box, the sixth master said with a depressed face: "Miss Gu, Brother Su, you are here!" This map...... Something went wrong! ”

As we spoke, we quickly gathered around the square table and looked at the tiled map. The dark yellow parchment map has a dark area the size of a palm, which occupies a fifth of the entire map, and what should have been an important route before approaching the center of the Sand Sea Hades is now blurred: the dune terrain and geographical signs are all indistinguishable!

I frowned and looked closely, and saw that the dark area was wet, as if it had been soaked in water!

Gu Yixin also discovered this phenomenon, and asked the sixth master sharply with a frown: "What's going on?" ”

It is not difficult to guess that Gu Yixin's first reaction was to suspect that the map had been manipulated by the old guy Sixth Master, because the map had been hidden by him since last night, and others had no chance to touch it at all. Nowadays, the map is soaked in water for no reason, and the vital information on it is in vain, which logically makes people think that the sixth master does not want us to participate in this trip, and secretly does something to the sheepskin map!

I also had this suspicion, so I stared at the sixth master and waited for him to explain.

The sixth master arched his hand at Gu Yixin, and said helplessly: "Miss Gu, this is really not an old man's intention!" Speaking from the heart, even if you borrow a few guts from the old man, the old man will never dare to fight against Mr. Gu! Just now, Officer Zhang asked me to take out the map and look at it, and I just felt it out of my personal pocket, but it didn't come to pass...... That's what it looks like! ”

Zhang Xuefeng stood on the periphery, snorted coldly, and asked rhetorically: "This map has always been on you, who can guarantee that you didn't do anything last night?" ”

The sixth master arched his hand tremblingly again, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and explained: "Officer Zhang, if you ask like this, you can be old...... I really can't explain it! ”

I glanced back at Gao Moli to ask for his opinion.

Before he could ask, Gao Moli replied faintly: "It's a tea stain." ”

I suddenly remembered that before the birthday banquet last night, the sixth master originally wanted the butler to lead me to the predicament on the second floor, and let the assassins in ambush kill me, but in the end, he found that Gao Moli and I walked in from outside the gate of Cuihuaxuan, and at that time, he was shocked, and his hand holding the teacup trembled, and most of the tea spilled out, wetting his clothes. At that time, the parchment was hidden on him, and this was inadvertently affected.

I rolled up the parchment map along the old creases, and found that the wet one was right on the outermost part.

I asked Gu Yixin to look at the rolled parchment roll and explained: "The sixth master may not have intended it, you see this soaked area, it is just on the periphery, and before the birthday banquet yesterday, I saw him spill the tea on his body. Tea stains are rich in theophylline, and theophylline has a very powerful effect, that is, dissolving fat! Although the sheepskin is air-dried, it is still the sebum of the animal after all, and the place where the tea is brewed is naturally dissolved into a blur! ”

After hearing this, Gu Yixin nodded, took the sheepskin map, opened it again and looked at it, and said without frowning: "This vague area hides the crucial information for finding the ultimate underworld, without this part, we may not be able to find Shao Yuanjie's underground palace!" ”

Zhang Xuefeng said coldly: "What are you afraid of, didn't Qin Lao Liu go there nine years ago, let him lead the way." ”

The sixth master explained with a smile: "The road I walked nine years ago, where can I still remember the old man!" Even if you remember, the landscape can change at any time in the vast sea of sand. In the past nine years, I am afraid that the world has been turned upside down! ”

What the sixth master said is true, in the desert, except for camels, it is difficult for people to remember the route clearly, and the reason is that there is no fixed landmark. Without a fixed reference, no matter how flexible the mind is, walking in the sea of sand, will lose its way back.

The parchment map is missing a vital part, which may really be a fatal blow to us, I was thinking to myself, and the sixth master suddenly said excitedly: "There is!" Doesn't Brother Su have the ability to gaze at the stars! When the time comes, as long as Brother Su shows his talents and finds the location of the ancient tomb, we will follow the direction determined by Brother Su, and we will not worry about not finding the Hades Palace buried in the sea of sand! ”

I couldn't cry or laugh, and greeted the relatives and friends of the sixth master next to each other in my heart. At the same time, I secretly complained in my heart: Damn! I boasted that I knew how to watch the stars and fix the acupoints, just to fool into the team of the sixth master, but I didn't expect this old guy to take it seriously!

When I was at a loss, the sixth master proposed that I should position myself at that time, and I couldn't admit it in public, so I had to bear it.
