Chapter Sixty-Eight: Nine Chicks

Ever since she mentioned my childhood nickname, I've been wary of this woman. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info This woman is either really my old acquaintance when I was a child, or it would be terrible, and she has picked up everything from many years ago, and her identity is too doubtful.

On the surface, I pretended to be calm and said to Emma: "I am a small trader who has been a soldier for a few years, these feng shui techniques are passed down by my grandfather, my grandfather fled the famine when he was young, worked as a Taoist priest for a few years, and then made a ****, these things were hidden." My father was educated in progressive ideology when he was a child, and he didn't learn this set of things. I also encountered some evil things when I was a soldier later, and I slowly began to learn, no one has taught me seriously, it is purely self-taught, and it is hard to learn by myself, but I remember that it is stronger than others..."

As she spoke, she chatted and talked about it, and the topic was naturally pulled elsewhere by me, and I wanted to talk to her, but this woman was as strict as Liu Hulan.

After walking for a long time, I finally came to the end of the waterway, the water flowed here and merged into a lake, blocking all the way, the space here is unusually vast, but there is no road under my feet, there is a black stone bulge in the center of the lake, the distance is too far, but I can vaguely see something on it.

Except where we stood, we were covered by the lake on all sides, and when we looked up, it was pitch black, and we couldn't see the top. The light of the flashlight can only see the outline of the protrusion in the center of the lake, and you can't see the opposite shore at all. With this little bit of equipment, don't even think about getting up if you dive in.

"There may have been a bridge here, but for some reason the bridge was cut off, and no one knew the depth of the water, so no one dared to go to the center," Emma said. ”

I smiled and said, "That's great, let's go home, with this little equipment, it's still unknown whether we can swim past it." As he spoke, he saw Emma take out a flare gun, cleanly loaded the bullet, and with a gunshot, a fiery red fireball flew diagonally dozens of meters high.

The flare was just above the central protrusion, and we were all staring at it, when the fat man suddenly shouted, "Hey... Look what it is. ”

Looking in the direction of the fat man's finger, an arm-thick iron chain sank into the water at one end and nailed to the wall at the other, and it was only a meter away from us. Seeing this, we all turned our attention away.

The fat man walked over and grabbed the chain and dragged it up, I didn't know what was underneath, I didn't pull it for a long time, I beckoned Li Guohua to come over to help.

The three big men worked together, and the iron chain surfaced little by little, and the other end became farther and farther away, until it appeared in a place connected to the center, no matter how strong it was, it couldn't move it at all.

The fat man found a place on it where he could fix the chain, and fastened the chain that he had dragged out of the water to it. If you look closely at the place where the chain is fixed, there is a big difference between it and the chain itself.

"Looks like someone has been here before us." Emma's words are equivalent to pouring a basin of cold water on Li Guohua's head, from the inside to the outside.

I stole a glance at Li Guohua's expression, only to see his frown flicker, and then replaced by his almost cold calm.

I said, "I guess they also retreated, otherwise there should have been traces left outside, and it took so much effort to get to that island, will there be any treasures on this island?" I hope I didn't get taken away by this group of kings and calves. ”

The fat man said: "Guess those are useless, as the saying goes, it's better to see than to hear, let's go up and see for ourselves." ”

After that, the fat man climbed on the chain first, and I shouted from behind: "Little fatty, you slow down, don't look at the thickness of the chain, your weight is not light." ”

In a short time, the fat man climbed to the island in the center. We asked the fat man what he found on the island, and he said, "Nothing, just a few eggs in a pile." I asked again if it was nine, and he lowered his head and counted and said, "One less, exactly eight." ”

Although everyone thought it strange, with my understanding of the fat man, he would not talk nonsense about this kind of thing, and I was still one hundred and twenty relieved of his ability to investigate, and when I saw that there was no result, I beckoned the fat man to come ashore again. With no way out, the few of us went back the way we came, and Emma and I were discussing what was going on with the eggs on the island in the middle of the lake.

Gu Tong and the third two people had been waiting impatiently, and when we came back, the two of them were like a spinning top, and when they saw us coming out, they hurriedly greeted us and asked for details. I fetched a pot of water from another river and recounted the situation as I drank it, and Li Guohua and Emma added a few words.

Gu Tong held on to his glasses, his little eyes were about to burst into flames, it was a labyrinth inside, if we could find something valuable, it would be in vain, and we couldn't wait for a moment, so we had to go inside.

Li Guohua stopped: "Gu expert, is there anything you have discovered?" Let's talk about it first. ”

Gu Tong saw that Li Guohua blocked the way, but he couldn't help but be a big boss, so he had to slowly say the reason: "Do you remember the last one on the mural in the underground palace?" There were nine eggs, and directly opposite it was a fierce bird watching the nine eggs. When you went in, you only found eight eggs, do you remember the phoenix egg that Mr. Zou took out before? ”

The fat man immediately realized: "Oh... I know, let's just say that the size of these eggs is so familiar, our phoenix egg should be from here, right? Then it was gone before, why didn't it come back? ”

I said, "When have you ever seen an egg walk?" Ancient expert, do you mean that the other cave is the fierce bird? ”

Gu Tong nodded, and said to Li Guohua: "Mr. Li, what you are looking for may be here." ”

Although he didn't know what they were looking for, Li Guohua naturally got out of the way after listening to Gu Tong's words, and Gu Tong hurriedly ran over. Because I went in once, so there was not much to worry about, I and the fat man naturally walked at the back, walked to the fork of the waterway, I looked back at the dark waterway, I don't know what kind of mentality, just thinking, the big gate behind, the bridge at the mouth of the three waterways, if any of them are destroyed, how to think about the possibility of getting out is really very small.

At the end of the waterway, this time I started the head, and climbed over first with a rope hanging from my waist, the rope was to prevent accidents when others passed, and we didn't dare to go directly into the water, there is no bottom here, and the ghost knows what demons and monsters will be below.

At first, the fat man found those eggs when he went up, and he didn't think there were anything at first. But when I got to the island in the middle of the lake, I took a look, and these eggs were so ingenious that no one would believe that they were naturally formed. Each egg has some drawings of birds of various shapes, which are very different from what we see on the murals.

Everyone who went up to the island was stunned by the pictures on these eggs, and the fat man was very disdainful of other people's expressions, what is so strange about this, isn't it just an egg, look at your appearance that has never seen the world.

Gutong reached out to get the egg, but Emma grabbed him and said, "Look, what is this?" ”

Put the egg, there are a total of nine bases, one of which is empty, which further enclaims our idea. The rope hooks on the wall by the lake, the phoenix eggs we got, all this proves that there were people who visited us before, but why did they just take away the phoenix eggs and leave nothing else?

I turned my head to look at Emma, only to see the third child crawling behind him. I asked the third child: "Why did you come with you, didn't you let you take care of Dr. Tong Li Mei?" ”

The third man said expressionlessly: "My duty is to protect the safety of the boss, and I don't care about the rest." ”

Li Guohua just crawled over, heard the conversation between me and the third child, and said: "It's okay, Brother Zou, I've already settled them, they all have guns in their hands, there is no problem, this place is not big, and I will go back soon." ”

If you want me to say, one here counts as one, and anyone who says that they are not interested in this legendary thing will kill me and I will not believe it.

What's more, this Xiaowan Kingdom has been able to stay out of the war in the Western Regions for many years, and it is always left and right, and even the Shanshan Dynasty, which is several times stronger, can still hold the royal city for many years, which shows the depth of its heritage.

From a distance, the island is not big, but when I went to the island, I found that there were fifty square meters here, and as the fat man said, there was nothing here except for eight eggs. Looking at the rocks on the ground, it seemed that we had reached the depths of the earth, and we had not had time to take a closer look at the situation around us because our attention was drawn to the chains and the time for flares was limited.

This time, when everyone arrived here, I took out a portable searchlight from my backpack, which was bought from Hong Kong by Li Guohua from the British, and the explosion-proof searchlight can be waterproof, riot-proof, and impact-resistant to a certain extent, and the theoretical irradiation range can reach three to five kilometers. However, the disadvantages and a little bit are just as obvious, the power consumption is large, it can be recharged repeatedly, and the battery can also be replaced. But in this kind of ghost place, where can we go to recharge, we can't lead to thunder, even if we have this idea and ability, God won't do it, because I heard before that Xinjiang does not thunder all year round.

The searchlight was installed in three or two clicks, and the switch was turned on in the dark, and a straight pillar of light shone out, sweeping around, and the surrounding situation was close in front of him, and he could see it clearly.
