Chapter 24: The Siege of the Brown Bear
"Acid and birds?!" I subconsciously opened my mouth and asked.
Liang Ruoyi shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't see what it was." Go back and rest, even if there is something, now the fog is so heavy and the visibility is so low, it's hard to see. ”
I looked at the Ice Beauty and thought that was all there was to it, so I threw away the almost corroded ornament and returned to the campfire.
Liang Ruoyi looked very tired, leaned against the mountain wall and quickly fell asleep. And I walked the mountain road for a day, and in the afternoon I was tossed by the black-faced corpse for a while, my body was very tired, but I didn't feel sleepy at all, sitting on the ground and looking at Liang Ruoyi, motionless.
I don't know how long it took, but I fell asleep, I didn't sleep deeply, I always woke up after a while, and I didn't bother to open my eyes, so I continued to sleep.
In a trance, I seemed to hear a slight wind in my ears, and it was indeed quite cold in this closed mountain recess.
When I opened my eyes, I noticed that there were beams of slightly dazzling sunlight shining on my face.
"Hmm......" I stretched, rubbed my eyes and stood up, and was stunned for a moment: the fog around me was still very thick, but not far above my head there were clusters of dark yellow liquids, shining in the sunlight outside the fog, and it was this piece of liquid that reflected the sunlight little by little, shining on the trees, like day.
No wonder! It's no wonder that these plants have been able to grow healthily under the fog for hundreds of years, because these acids and bird droppings refract the sunlight in!
"What's wrong? What time is it? Liang Ruoyi also woke up at this time, asked me, rubbed his eyes, and was also frightened by the scene in front of him: "This, this? ”
I smiled, then the fog on the mountain wall washed my face, and I walked around, but I didn't find any trace of the second uncle and the Budai monk.
When we returned to the campfire, Liang Ruoyi had already prepared breakfast, we ate hastily, checked our belongings, and Liang Ruoyi contacted Zawuhar again.
According to Zawhar, they had a smooth journey, did not encounter any other forks in the road, and are now approaching the bottom of the "U" shape.
"I do smell a bit of a broom star!" I looked at Liang Ruoyi with a bitter face: "Why is it on me every time something happens!" ”
The corners of Liang Ruoyi's mouth drew an arc: "Forget it, don't you think that our suspicions are getting more and more real now?" Why didn't anything go wrong with Zaulhar? ”
I was stunned, but I didn't expect the ice beauty to think of this: "That's right, it was Zauhar who proposed to divide the team at the beginning, and after separating the two teams, it was Zauhar who decided which team to go to which side, and now we are separated by two people, and we almost died at the hands of the black-faced corpse yesterday, and there is no on Zawhar's side, which is becoming more and more suspicious......"
Liang Ruoyi smiled and patted me on the shoulder: "But I believe that the Seventh Master will not be unaware of this." ”
This surprised me even more, and it was not whether the seventh master could detect this, but Liang Ruoyi's relaxed expression when he said this. In every action, this kind of look almost does not appear on Liang Ruoyi's face, and I think her look just now is for me to see.
What the ice beauty is really thinking about is that the seventh master and the pig's head, as well as the toad, must also have their own careful thoughts, and now everyone must have their own ghosts, and no one can trust anyone. As the action goes deeper and deeper, we can get more and more things in our hands, and it also tests everyone's psychology more.
Liang Ruoyi's expression seems relaxed, but in my eyes, it is more like a disdain, a reminder.
I believe that the current ice beauty must also be suspicious of the second uncle, and if the second uncle is doubted, he will definitely doubt me by the way......
"Not leaving?" Liang Ruoyi took a few steps, turned his head and came back to see that I hadn't followed yet, and beckoned to me.
I answered and followed.
Soon, we walked out of the mountain recess, and in the mist, Liang Ruoyi found the mark he had drawn on the mountain wall when he came in yesterday, at least, it seems that the Budai monk probably did not find this mark.
"Let's go." Liang Ruoyi pointed to the side of the guide: "Maybe the second master and the Budai monk are already in front." ”
I nodded and followed Liang Ruoyi forward, but this brow kept frowning and couldn't stretch out: since she started in the morning, what she said always made people feel like a side knock, the second uncle was separated when he was with us, if he was okay, he should have gone back to the mountain recess to find us first, and now she said that the second uncle may have run to the front, clearly showing her distrust.
Alas, it's getting harder and harder to be human.
Along the way, Liang Ruoyi and I had very little to say, and according to her previous estimates, we had walked a little more than two-thirds of the way, and at about two o'clock in the afternoon, we were able to enter the bottom of the "U" shaped canyon.
At ten o'clock, most of the acid and bird excrement above the head disappeared, and the rest quickly fell to the ground, and the beams of sunlight above the head quickly disappeared.
Strangely, the road was much quieter, and nothing came to attack us again.
"Hey, I suddenly remembered something!" I looked around at the quiet surroundings: "Let's not talk about brown bears and acids and birds, why is this black-faced corpse here?" Could it be that there are tombs here? ”
"This was originally a thousand-year-old dragon vein, and it is normal to have tombs." Liang Ruoyi said thoughtfully: "But I think that even if there is a tomb, it is the tomb of those black-faced corpses themselves." The land rich in medicinal herbs is generally heavier yang qi, and yin and yang are unbalanced, which is not good for the qi of dragon yang, so it is unlikely that there will be large tombs. The purpose of the appearance of the black-faced corpse may be to protect the Tianshan Medicine Garden. ”
"Hey, you know so much!" I smiled: "I was thinking, after I die, I will also find a good place for myself." ”
"Humph!" Liang Ruoyi glanced at me, her face full of disdain.
The clock soon ticked to noon, and we rested on the side, had lunch, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, got up and continued on our way.
After less than half an hour's walk, we were less than an hour's walk to the bottom of the "U" shaped canyon, and my heart began to get excited, and the pace of my feet slowly increased.
"Wait a minute!"
When I was walking, Liang Ruoyi reached out and grabbed me, and made a gesture to silence me.
I followed Liang Ruoyi slowly forward along the mountain wall, and after a few seconds, I heard a shout in front of me, and if I listened closely, it was a fight!
Second uncle? Or a cloth bag monk? I was just guessing when I heard a woman's voice: Ha, it turned out to be Sun Miaomiao!
Because the fog is very heavy and the visibility is only a little more than a zhang, we can't see the situation on Sun Miaomiao's side at all now, but I am a little anxious when I come back to my senses: Sun Miaomiao They should not compete with the second uncle, because we are now in a "cooperative" relationship, so if you say so, is it a cloth bag monk?
The cloth bag monk with complete parts also had a tie with Sun Miaomiao, and now he is missing an arm, isn't it more auspicious? !
Thinking of this, I whispered in the ear of the ice beauty: "Let's go over and take a look, what if it's the second uncle or the cloth bag master?!" ”
Liang Ruoyi nodded, hesitated, and pulled me to continue walking.
Soon, we saw a few vague black shadows scurrying in the mist, the black shadow in the middle was extraordinarily huge, and when we saw it clearly, Liang Ruoyi and I were stunned: it was Sun Miaomiao, Zhou Jun and Chai Lao Wu who were besieging the extremely strong brown bear!
Good boy! Where is the cloth bag monk?! How did these three men get into a fight with the brown bears? You must know that they arrived at least half a day earlier than us, and Liang Ruoyi and I have taken a fork in the road, how can they be so slow with the guidance of the second uncle?!
Could it be that the second uncle also had reservations about them, and did not point out how detailed the journey was? I frowned, thinking to myself that the second uncle could do this.
"Look, that Zhou Jun seems to be injured."
I was thinking about it when Liang Ruoyi on the side stretched out his hand and pointed to a figure and said to me.
