Chapter 374: The More I Want to See Clearly, the More I Can't See ...... (2nd Update)
"How?" I asked Hu Fangdao, who was walking towards us.
Hu Fang walked up to me with a sad face and shook his head helplessly, as if the situation was a bit serious. The two disciples of Moshu handed the straw paper with a red pattern to Moshu.
Moshu unfolded the paper and looked at it carefully through the candle flame on the side, and his face gradually showed a sad face.
"Moshu senior, what is that?" I stepped up to me and asked, wanting to see what was on the paper.
I saw a triangle-like pattern outlined in red lines on some rough and yellowed paper, and a large number of strange symbols and radial lines were scrawled around the pattern, and I couldn't understand what it was.
"Old-timer, this is ......," I said, confused. At this time, seeing that I couldn't see the reason, the Dead Apostle and Li Zhisheng also came up.
"This is what my apprentice rubbed from your friend's back, it could not be a ...... caused by a collision," Moshu said, narrowing his eyes and shaking slightly with his hand holding the papyrus, as if trying to make out the characters and patterns on it.
Seeing that Moshu was so focused that it was inconvenient to interrupt, I didn't talk to him again, but pulled the dead apostle who had seen the pattern aside and asked, "I remember that you seem to have studied some ancient characters, do you know what the words and patterns on them represent?" ”
The Dead Apostle shook his head: "I don't know, in my opinion, this can't be said to be words at all, even if it's hieroglyphs, you can guess, but this, you can't even guess...... However, why did this pattern suddenly appear on Hu Fang's back? The Dead Apostle turned his head to look at Hu Fang.
At this time, Hu Fang was sitting on the stone bench next to the bed without saying a word, and from her solemn expression, I could feel that she was definitely not only worried about the sudden appearance of the pattern on her body, but more because she was afraid that she would cause us trouble.
"Go ahead and get busy, and call you when you need it." Mo Shu said, waving his hand to the two female apprentices behind him, signaling them to leave first.
The two men said yes in unison, then turned and left the room. After the two of them left, Moshu beckoned to me and said, "Young man, come here." ”
Hearing the sound, I thought he saw something and hurriedly stepped forward: "Did you find something?!" ”
"Not yet, but I think the pattern is familiar, and it may take some time to figure out what it is. I called you here to ask you why this is such a thing on your friend? ”
"I don't know about it, but ......," I said, and I pondered for a moment before continuing, "I think this matter may have something to do with Yangshi. ”
I say this because I am reminded of an incident at the abandoned lumber yard where the Dead Apostles told me that Hu Fang seemed to be being used as a lodge for Hades. From this, I speculate that this pattern may have been caused at that time.
"Oh? Something to do with Yangshi? Why? Moshu looked up at me and said.
I hesitated a little to tell him about the lumberyard......
After thinking about it again and again, in order to find out the mark on Hu Fang's body, I still told him the reason for the incident and expressed my guess.
After listening to Moshu, I noticed that he was obviously stunned, and then he was a little surprised, but these expressions were fleeting, and soon he regained his previous calm, and said: "I think your guess should be correct, you will stay here for the time being today, and don't leave." I'll take this picture first, and I'll give you an answer in a day. ”
After saying that, he didn't care whether I agreed or not, and turned around and left.
At this time, there were only five of us left in the room, and Yaolong was still lying calmly on the bed at this time, his chest was rising and falling smoothly and regularly. Li Zhisheng and I, as well as the Dead Apostles, sat around a stone table in the room, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, Li Zhisheng, who had been silent, suddenly asked me: "Shen Xu, did you just say that you saw a woman with tear moles in the corners of her eyes at the lumber yard before?" ”
"Yes, that's right, that woman seems to be in the same group as the ancient skeleton." I replied in the affirmative.
"Do you remember an incident that happened at the hospital?" After Li Zhisheng heard this, he asked me and the Dead Apostle mysteriously.
Seeing Li Zhisheng ask me this, I was really a little confused, after all, we have visited the hospital many times since these events, and we have almost become frequent visitors to the hospital, where do I still remember clearly, and he didn't explain things clearly, which made me even more confused.
"You just say what's going on, don't beat around the bush." I urged.
"Also, it's not surprising that you don't remember after such a long time. Once in the hospital, you got a photo, and then when you asked who gave you the photo, the nurse on duty told you that it was a woman with tear moles in the corners of her eyes, do you remember? Li Zhisheng said.
After hearing this, I suddenly remembered something, and a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I suddenly said: "It seems that there is such a thing, you mean that the woman who gave me the picture is the same person we met at the lumberyard?!" I said.
"I think it should be like this, and even the other photos of the box should be from her. In other words, the third box is actually not in the hands of the Yang Shi at all, but in the hands of the Ancient Skeletons! Li Zhisheng said, slamming the table.
Just thinking about it, I was slapped by Li Zhisheng like this, I came back to my senses all of a sudden, and frowned tightly and said: "Although there is this possibility, but she is not the only woman with tear moles in the whole world, and there are many contradictions that cannot be explained." ”
"Besides, the priority now is not to find out the person who sent me the photo, but to find out what the mark on Hu Fang's body is and whether it will endanger her safety." After speaking, I glanced at Hu Fang next to me with my spare eyes, sighed softly, and greeted her in a calmer tone: "Hu Fang, don't sit alone, come and sit together, I still have something I want to ask you." ”
After hearing this, Hu Fang raised her head, her eyes were full of anxiety, she slowly got up and walked to the stone table and sat down, and said faintly: "What do you want to ask me?" ”
"I just wanted to ask, do you know when this mark appeared on you, and did you feel anything strange when it appeared?"
"If I knew, it wouldn't be like that now...... It's because I don't know anything that I'm afraid, and I'm afraid that this mark will hurt you......"
