Xiling Maze Chapter 11 The Strange Old Man (Part II)

Anzi has been here before, and is somewhat familiar with the CD environment, so he said that he took us to a night market called "Judu", saying that there are authentic CD skewers and spicy rabbit heads. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As soon as I heard the spicy and refreshing food, I immediately swallowed saliva in my stomach, just like the feeling of the blind bear looking for hot pot just now, and hurriedly urged Anzi to take us quickly.

When it came to "Playing the Capital", this Anzi didn't lie to us at all, eating barbecue, eating skewers, drinking beer, and the people were full of voices, so lively.

We were so hungry that we were drinking and eating until the second half of the night.

The blind bear was still thinking about the thing found in my box, and he drank a little too much, and kept asking me, "Just show it to my brother, please." ”

I told him to be quiet, for fear that others would hear us, and report that we were all a group of grave robbers, and everything was blind when we were caught.

The blind bear laughed, "You kid is worried, where is this?" This is the land of abundance. What do people say here? Mandarin? nononono…… They speak Sichuan, and we speak between chickens and ducks, and we don't understand each other. ”

I said, "You're fucking drunk, don't talk much, and you've got business to do tomorrow." ”

Just when we had an argument and I didn't give the bear blind man a drink, I realized that there was an old man next to me.

He limped over to us step by step, and reached out for money with this broken bowl.

I thought to myself, how can there be begging in the middle of the night? Most of them are homeless people, who sleep enough during the day and wander around at night. If you can get money, you will want it, and if you can't get it, you will do some stealing things.

He opened his mouth, "Bosses are good, give some money to spend, give some money to spend......"

When I heard his accent, I was not a local like us, but it had a bit of Shandong's dialect, which may be the reason why I like Huang Bo more, so I am particularly familiar with the Qingdao dialect of this mouth.

So I talked to him a few nonsense.

I said, "You old man walks around in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid that the police will arrest you?" Besides, how do you tell we're the bosses? How can there be a boss who eats roadside stalls in the middle of the night! ”

This old man was very strange, after he looked at me, he squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "The bosses are not afraid to catch the darts (robbery) when they come out in the middle of the night, I am a bad old man, and I have no ideas (enemies), and I am afraid that I will not be able to make a relationship with others?" ”

He pointed to the conch dzi hanging around my neck again, "This thing is not worthy of ordinary people. ”

Because I drank too much, I didn't even know that when I was arguing with the blind bear just now, the dzi came out of my clothes.

I thought to myself, "This is the case." This old man's black words can tell what I am wearing, it seems that it is not a peer, and it is not far from ten. ”

But no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like he's working in the ground, he looks like he's embarrassed, like crawling out of the sewers.

The blind bear wanted to speak, but I saw that he had drunk too much, and I was afraid that if I talked too much, I would lose it, so I asked Xiaolin and Anzi to pull him aside to sober up.

I know that this old man must have come prepared, otherwise he would not have "met peers" so coincidentally.

I asked tentatively, "Do you have a shovel or a shovel?" ”

Under normal circumstances, it is the beggar who carries the stick, the farmer who carries the shovel, and the worker who carries the ash bucket.

And only the people in the line know that the shovel is the Luoyang shovel, which is the key to the tomb visit, and this person does not say that he is a tomb robber, which also has something to do with field archaeology.

The old man smiled, "Since the boss still has something to say to me, then I've been hungry and haven't eaten for a day, so don't you invite the guests to sit down and eat some wine?" ”

I knew that there must be something in the old man's stomach, so I hurriedly beckoned to him, "Come, come, sit, sit, let's sit down." ”

The old man sat down, first ate the vegetables, and then drank a bottle of beer, and I saw that he had not eaten properly for a long time.

A table of things, three times five divided by two, he swept clean, I ordered some more food, and waited for him to eat for a while before asking him, "What does the old man do?" How did you know who we were? ”

The old man put a handful of peanuts in his mouth, pointed at the blind bear and said, "Have you seen that fat man?" The top is short and the bottom is thick, typical of the physique of the Jieling Lux. There is also the tall one, I see that he has thick arms and long narrow fingers, and he does not look like an ordinary person. ”

He glanced at my neck again, "The most important thing is this thing on your neck." This dzi of yours is not an ordinary conch dzi, it is the talisman of the high priest in ancient times, and it has a great reputation underground, and it is said that it is used as a burial object to the ground. Now that he is born, there is no other way to come from it except that it is poured out. ”

I listened to what he said, and thought to myself that this old man was indeed a companion, and that his deeds might not be shallow.

If he is willing to help us, maybe we can save a lot of things and avoid many detours along the way.

Thinking of this, I tried to probe his tone and said, "Then you may know the purpose of our coming?" ”

"Yes!" He was very happy, "Aren't you here for the ancient Shu Kingdom in the mountains?" Otherwise, you still can't come to travel? ”

"Ancient Shu Kingdom?"

His words sounded harsh, but I still sounded happy, which meant that he must have known about it.

Then he said, "Are you interested in coming with us?" ”

He put down the bottle and laughed, "Together?" You want me to be a ferryman for you! ”

I would smile heartily, "You take yours, I want mine!" ”

I really didn't think I could say this, a serious archaeologist is now almost completely reduced to an antiquities dealer. But there is no sense of brazenness at all.

The old man was full of food and drink, and found a toothpick to pick his teeth, and said, "If you say that, then we can't talk about it." But let's talk about it in advance, I just lead the way, old man, if we really find the tomb, we will go our own way after going down, and life and death have nothing to do. Don't let a few of you have three long and two short, and you will put my life into it. I haven't lived long enough, old man. ”

I said yes again and again, and told him what we talked about in the car, what is hidden in this mountain, and why does it attract so many people to come? Is the animal in the photo deliberately pretending, a monster, or something else? I have told this old man and Pan all these questions.

Thanks to this Anzi who has been to Sichuan, otherwise, we will be dark-eyed and don't understand anything, and we will definitely be laughed at by this old man.

The old man said casually, "I've heard of this snowman before, but I haven't seen it. Locals say that the snowman is 2.5 to 4.6 meters in size, with a pointed head, red hair and gray-yellow hair. It is also because of the legend of the snowman that countless explorers have come to the Xiling area to find this mysterious animal that brings infinite fantasy space to humans. But I know of a place where you might have a chance to check it out. ”

If, as the old man said, he knew the whereabouts of Gangla Cangmu, we could try our luck with him.

However, if this old man has any other purpose, or is a spy sent by Lin Zhengyi, then we will set ourselves on fire.
