Chapter 34: The Ancient Temple Supports the Orphan
The old man explained here intermittently, and most of the hour had passed, and the effect of the unicorn blood coagulation had gradually weakened, and the old man had become angry, holding the hands of Zi Yang and Ah Chong and saying, "My kung fu has been taught to my grandson, but the secret of this iron horse, as well as the realization of the will of the ancestors, he is not competent." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info I can only ask you. ”
Zi Yang was shocked when he heard this, such an important responsibility was handed over to himself, how could I be. But looking at the old man's resolute expression, he couldn't help but shirk it at all.
"I pass on these secrets that have been passed down from generation to generation to you, if you can inherit the legacy of this iron cavalry and continue to search for the descendants of General Zhang Siyuan and the thirteenth chapter map, dozens of generations of my iron cavalry will be grateful, if you are unwilling, just wait for my grandson to come of age, and then find an opportunity to pass these on to him." Let's not just cut off the bloodline of our clan......"
As he spoke, he groped out a pendant faintly revealing the cold light, embossed with simple patterns and traditional characters, two fingers wide and palm-length like a token, and said, "This is the Iron Riding Order, there are only seven pieces in the world, and after many years of division and combination, they are now scattered all over the place." ”
"The descendants of the Iron Cavalry are divided into two factions, the Blue Wolf and the Iron Cavalry, each faction and each branch have their own different training, skills, and expertise, but I am the only one who holds all the secrets and information together, and after my death, you are the only heirs of the Iron Cavalry. I hope you can find the descendants of the world's iron knights and blue wolves, gather the thirteen chapters of the map, and complete the legacy of your ancestors. ”
"Although my child is born with a disability, you can take it with you and it may be of great use in the future." Saying that, looking at Xiao Hei, he was full of love and reluctance in his affection, and a cloudy tear flowed from his eyes. As soon as the body stiffened, it was gone.
In addition to this box of Qilin Blood Condensation and an Iron Riding Token, there was also a stack of twelve pieces of vellum paper-like things. I don't know what kind of processing was used, but although these are hundreds of years old, they are well preserved. Zi Yang touched it with his hand, it was quite soft, and his heart was cold, although the old man did not confess, but this should be the tomb of the Mongolian army made of the skin of the twelve iron horsemen**.
Lao Wang scratched his head and said, "The deceased is the greatest, I don't know whether to say some things, the old man's thinking and consciousness are still stuck hundreds of years ago, what era is it now, don't Xingtuo Gu said, we take your child, maybe we will be arrested as human trafficking...... As for the rest of the will, I am a rough and stupid person, and I don't understand anything, so I will leave it to these two brothers, and I will only have to share some gold, silver, and jewelry that you don't want. ”
Lao Wang confessed to the old man's corpse seriously, as if he could still hear it, "I'm a straight talker, don't be surprised, I didn't bother to interrupt when I saw what you said in a hurry just now, if there is anything offended, I will apologize to you here", said Dong Dong knocked his head a few times, his heart was also sincere, and his form was also sincere.
After Ah Chong ate a Qilin Blood Condensation, he adjusted his luck a little beside him, his face gradually eased, and he put the remaining box of Qilin Blood Condensation in his arms, and handed the Iron Riding Order and the leather paper to Lao Wang and Ziyang respectively and said, "The words of the predecessors, we can't take them as a child's play. These things are very important, and the two of them should keep them properly. ”
Zi Yang hesitated a little and said, "Wouldn't it be safer to put it on you?" ”
Ah Chong shook his head and said, "My situation ...... You don't understand. This mission, I was also entrusted by someone, this corpse agarwood restrained my yin and yang arms, except for Professor Zhang, only a few people in this world know. I've always felt a little strange here......"
Then he said in a deep voice, "The dragon head that Uncle Li said in his mouth is also an important clue, this time I am cooperating with Uncle Li and them according to Professor Zhang's instructions, and the dragon head is mediating in it, and he is the key person, and I have only heard his voice but have not seen his face, so I have to go and investigate." This can be dangerous, so it's better to keep these two things for you to keep. ”
Lao Wang stroked the iron horse order and said, "Since the little brother said so, then I will keep this thing", and then hung it around his neck, and made a decent gesture.
Then he waved his hand generously and said to Ziyang, "The paper will be handed over to you, I know that you are a scholar, it is more appropriate for you to keep it, you can study more when you are idle and have nothing to do, and increase your knowledge and experience." ”
Zi Yang scolded in his heart, can this be considered a book, and besides, these people are sketched on the skin, saying that the map is not a map, saying that the words are not words, and if you want to understand the feelings, you must know the password compilation - I don't have this ability.
Ah Chong also seemed to have acquiesced to Lao Wang's arrangement. He continued, "Let's rest and settle the old man's body. ”
At that moment, a few people sorted out the old man's body and carried him back to the stone tomb, thinking that he should be buried next to the wild king.
Back at the stone tomb, the scene of the battle just now seems to be vivid. Several people carefully re-closed the lid of the body coffin of the wild king, and Ah Chong solemnly kowtowed a few times in front of the sarcophagus.
Xiao Hei looked solemn, put his hands together in front of his chest, bowed his head to his hands, touched the ground with his legs and knees, prostrated his upper body, and touched the ground three times with his head. Then get up and do the same three times.
Zi Yang looked at it from the side and thought to himself, these three bows and nine bows are a great gift to meet the emperor and worship ancestors, and it has long been out of business, even in the countryside, such traditional etiquette is rarely known. Xiao Hei's set should have been taught by the old man since he was a child, this wild king is tantamount to the imperial ancestors of the descendants of the iron horse, and there must be a grand worship ceremony every year.
Zi Yang thought to himself, although I have no reason with you, I respect your integrity and personality, and I will bow to you.
Lao Wang said, "We proletariats don't want to kowtow, I'll bow to you." ”
But when he walked up to him, he thought of the section where the wild king's soul possessed his body and showed his might just now, and he couldn't help but weaken his knees, and he still knelt down.
At that moment, several people put the old man's body flat on the stone slab next to him, thinking that the old man would guard the tomb of the wild king all his life, and after his death, he would continue to accompany the wild king in the mausoleum. Xiao Hei knelt down on his grandfather's current and kowtowed solemnly a few times.
Everyone hurriedly gathered together the corpses and equipment of Uncle Li's men, and prepared to dig a pit outside to bury them, when Ziyang suddenly sighed, "Where is Uncle Li's corpse?" ”
Everyone looked around, but there was no one everywhere, even the scarred face who was seriously injured by Ah Chong and fell to the ground unconscious. I can't help but be shocked, are the bones melted?
Ah Chong looked worriedly at the blood stains on the ground, "It should have escaped, or was it careless, we didn't seal the exit after we went out just now." Xiao Hei was already mentally incomplete, and after seeing that his grandfather was seriously injured, he only cared about saving people, and completely forgot about sealing the door. And Ah Chong, Zi Yang and the others didn't care about it in a panic, they just thought that after the wild king returned to his soul, he destroyed Uncle Li and the rest of his subordinates.
Lao Wang patted his thigh and said: "What an old fox, he pretended to be dead just now, escaped a catastrophe, and secretly ran away while we were chatting." ”
Uncle Li and Scarface were nowhere to be seen, and everyone felt faintly uneasy in their hearts.
After cleaning up the stone tomb, Xiao Hei pulled the mechanism outside and lowered the sealing stone, and everyone cleaned up again, and finally sorted out the endgame.
In the main hall, the stone statue fell to the ground, and the entrance of the cave was already a mess of stones, and no one could imagine what was happening below. As soon as the dragon gate was broken, the sealing stone fell, except for a few people on the spot, no one knew about the ancient tomb under the broken hall - of course, there was Uncle Li, but if he was given twelve more guts, he would not come back here. What's more, there is nothing else here except the body of the wild king, and it is of no value to a tomb robber like him.
After Ah Chong Qilin took the blood condensation, his expression had returned to normal, and it seemed that the toxicity of the corpse agarwood had been resolved. When everything was cleaned up, he said to Ziyang and Lao Wang, "Let's break up." ”
Lao Wang was anxious, "You person, every time you say go, leave, isn't this ......" said and arched to Xiao Hei next to him with a crooked mouth, meaning that there is still someone who has not solved it.
At this time, Xiao Hei was probably still immersed in sadness, and his eyes were gloomy looking in the direction of burying his grandfather.
Ah Chong said apologetically, "I've always been alone, and I don't know how much danger there is this time, it's not convenient to take Xiao Hei with me, and now except for the two of you, even I'm not sure who else can be trusted." Xiao Hei, I'll leave it to you to take care of. ”
Lao Wang was anxious, "We can't take care of ourselves in our own lives, how can we take care of others?" ”
Zi Yang said, "Don't make all this useless, let's go back to the town first, if the journey is fast, we can go back before dark, I don't want to spend the night in the barren mountains and mountains outside." ”
When the group hurried away, Xiao Hei followed everyone from a distance.
Zi Yang was quite troubled in his heart, this old Wang was right, the two of them couldn't take care of themselves, how to take care of this half-grown living person, both of them were still in school and were supported by their families.
And now the cost of living in the city is so high, last night I saw Xiao Hei destroy four steamed buns, half a leg of mutton, and a pack of ham sausages, and it is estimated that this Xiao Hei's usual meal should not be small, what will he eat in the future, and where will he live? Does he have a hukou? Could it be that in the future, he will have to compete with the beggars under the overpass for territory?
The group hurried back to the town, and Ah Chong asked Ziyang to inquire if there was a bank or something in the town, and someone told him that there was a rural credit cooperative, which could apply for a savings card from the Agricultural Bank - if you hurry up, it is not closed yet.
Ah Chong asked Ziyang to use his ID card to apply for a card, and after writing down the account number, he said to Ziyang, "In the future, I will put 3,000 yuan on this card every month, which should be enough for your living needs." It's not too early, let's leave it at that, there will be a period later. ”
