Chapter 61: Mercenaries

After the lizard and the child were talking, the lizard crawled back into my pocket and poked out a little head. "The fat man has a child on his back, and he will tell us how to go."

When Niu Pang heard this, his eyes widened and his throat moved, "You say, who knows if this ghost kid is poisonous or not?" I don't do it. ”

"Do you still want to summon Luo Token?" The lizard's trick has been tried and tested again and again.

Niu Fat was stubborn, "Take out the real kung fu and take a look, who wouldn't touch the skin of the mouth?" ”

"Is there a dog in the zodiac?" The lizard said.

"Yes, there are dogs."

"He can call a wolf."

"What's wrong with calling a wolf, I can still call Ma Dong." Niu Fat blurted out without brains, which made me lose face, but fortunately, there was no one around.

The lizard choked on this sentence and stumbled. "If you think Ma Dong can help you wake up the animals of Luo Token, I won't say anything."

Niu Fat opened his mouth and didn't say a word, looking at my pocket, I knew he was moved. "What can this guy summon?"

"What is the wolf like in the zodiac?" The lizard asked to the cow fat.

Niu Fat touched the back of his head, "Dog? ”

The lizard sighed, and an idea popped into my head, "Wolves are canines, and the origin of dogs is through the domestication of wolves." ”

"Yes, a wolf is a dog, and your Luo token needs your own blood and the blood of a head wolf to be recognized by the dog tag." The lizard explained.

At this time, Niu Fat looked at the lizard in disbelief, "What you said is true?" But where am I going to get the blood of a wolf? ”

"I have." The child, who had been silent, spoke.

Niu Fat looked at the child with disgust, "Why do you have the blood of a wolf?" ”

"People in the mountains often came into contact with wild animals more than ten years ago, and it was common for them to kill a wolf when they encountered danger. The child said.

Niu Fat looked at me, which meant to ask me if I could be trusted, I didn't answer him directly, and nodded the child on the ground with my chin.

Niu Fat muttered in his mouth, picked up the child from the ground in disgust, shook off the quilt, wrapped the child in it, and passed the stick over the quilt, carrying the child like a burden.

This scene reminds me of the classic episode in Journey to the West, I licked my face and barely considered a senior brother, Niu Fat needless to say, it must be Zhu Bajie, and he has to go back at every turn, as for He Yi, he can only provide help on the device, except for useless words, it is nonsense, which is very similar to the character of Sha Seng. The child is very familiar with the local area, and the lizard is at the fairy level, asking key questions.

Following the child's instructions, we walked for more than an hour and found a natural depression with a pool of lakes in the middle, and its regular circle was hard to imagine that it was a natural formation. The second most important thing is that the two sides of the lake are diametrically opposed, half of the lake is frozen, and the shore is occasionally snowy, and the other half has no ice at all, and even shoots can be seen on the shore. The whole lake gave me a feeling of oppression that overshadowed the cold.

"This is Yinyang Lake?" The lizard in my pocket let out a sigh.

"Yinyang Lake? Have you been here? I asked.

"I've never been here, I've been a ghost for so long, and I know a little bit about Yinyang Lake. Yinyang Lake is a naturally formed lake, half facing the sun and half shading. Many Yin and Yang gentlemen want to find this lake and double their abilities, and there are also many Taoist priests who do not follow the right path and spend their lives looking for such a lake to cultivate. "The lizard's eyes don't leave the lake at all.

"The entrance you are looking for is the place where the yin and yang are separated at the bottom of the lake, and I can't go in." The child said.

"Why? Do you want to run? With your little arms and legs, you can't run for eight days. Niu Fat said sarcastically.

The lizard took the child's words. "Not only him, but I can't go in. Only living people who are harmonized with yin and yang can enter the Yin-Yang Lake, we are not living people, we belong to the yin qi, we can't get in if we want to, even if we break in, our corpses are in, but the soul is still floating on the lake. ”

"I can't go in either." He Yi interjected.

"Why can't you go in?" Niu Fat said dissatisfied.

He Yi's demeanor twisted, "I don't know how to water." ”

When Niu Fat heard this, he directly picked it and didn't do it. "I don't understand, are we begging you to do something, or are you begging us to do something? Lao Tzu's office did a good job, and you pulled it over, but when something happened, one of them sounded better than the other. Do I owe you anything? ”

If you want to say that everyone likes to find soft persimmons to pinch, lizards, He Yi, children, look at me at the same time, dare to love me sandwiched in the middle inside and outside is not a person.

"Don't look at him, just his little arms and legs, Lao Tzu went up with a fist, and he was already home when he woke up." Niu Er's eyes slanted to the side.

Just when a group of people didn't know what to do, a wolf howl came from the hill behind us, and it was heard from the distance of the sound, not more than a hundred meters away. In less than thirty seconds, another sound sounded on another hill. It rang five or six times before it stopped.

"Oh, I'm going to fucking have a wolf?" Niu Er's eyes floated around, and he exhaled softly.

"Hehehehehehe, this is the only way you have left." The child laughed behind Niu Er's back.

He Yi rummaged through his backpack for a long time, and actually took out a pistol from his bag. I suddenly became hostile to He Yi in my heart, the person who can hold a pistol is either a policeman or a social person, who knows if he has a life in his hands. Who knows what's going on in this wilderness? Niu Pang and I glanced at each other and made a simple exchange, reminding the other party to pay attention to He Yi.

"It's winter, the wolves have no food source, you have heard, the wolves are scattered, no matter where you go, there is a chance of encountering wolves, of course, if you stand on the shore and wait for death, I won't stop you. If you want to live, there is only one way into the water. The child analyzed.

I was really surprised when he said this, the child was still out of breath before, and now he didn't even breathe when he said this. This little thing is not easy to mess with, and it seems that it has long been ready for us to jump in the lake. There are definitely dangers in the lake, but if you don't jump into the lake, it's not safe on the shore. Neither path leads. Lizard, a hundred-year-old female ghost, doesn't even know that she has been deceived.

'Wow~', the wolf howl was less than a hundred steps away from us.

He Yi turned his head to look at the lake, gritted his teeth, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at me, "You jump." ”

I was stunned, I didn't know if I had watched too many police movies, I saw the muzzle of the gun pointed at me, and my hands were unconsciously raised above my head. Then I thought that something was wrong, but I didn't dare to move again, and if I put my hand down, thinking that I was going to attack him and cause me a manslaughter, I would be wronged. Fuck me as a bully, or do I owe it because I look good, and choose me for anything.

It was the first time I was pointed out to jump into the lake, and I threw my backpack on the ground, which immediately aroused He Yi's vigilance, "What are you doing?" ”

"He Yi, Brother He, can I take off my down jacket? This thing absorbs water. "I have a certain reason in saying this, jumping into the lake in a down jacket is equivalent to death, and the weight of the down jacket absorbing water should not be underestimated.

"Hurry up." He Yi urged impatiently.

I took off my down jacket, looked at the Yinyang Lake, gritted my teeth, and plunged headlong into the lake.

He Yi saw that I was in the water, and pointed his gun at Niu Fat, "You go down too." ”

Although Niu Fat was angry, he was not too angry with his own life, and after putting the child down, he also jumped into the lake.

I'm most worried about children and lizards at the moment, neither of which can enter the lake, and the only thing I'm glad about is that children can talk wolf and won't hurt themselves. Of course, it is not excluded that these wolves were called by her.

He Yi glanced at the child, raised his leg and kicked the child four or five meters away. He started rummaging through the lizards in my pockets, but he found nothing. He Yi could only kick my clothes into the lake. Ditch your clothes and jump into the lake with your backpack on your back.

We swam in the lake for half an hour, and as soon as we tried to get to the shore, a wolf howl came from the shore, which made us change direction constantly and until we were exhausted.

The three of them are in the middle, barely floating on the water, He Yi is not like he said he can't swim, in my opinion, his water is very good, much better than me and Niu Er. Now the situation is terrible, we stay in the water for another twenty minutes, and our lives are about to say goodbye to this world.

"Maybe the kid is right, we're almost at the surface of the lake, maybe the bottom of the lake is the entrance." I make a suggestion.

It was not He Yi who raised objections, but Niu Fat, "You know how deep the bottom of the lake is, and if we go down, we may die in it." ”

"Go down." He Yi made a decisive choice, and he had long lost his previous politeness.

Niu Er still wanted to go back, but when he thought of He Yi holding a pistol against his head before, he was deflated.

I took a long breath and dived into the water. I don't know how long it has been sinking, the oxygen in my lungs has run out, and when I was about to signal Niu Er and He Yi to dive up, I felt a very slow flow of water, which was flowing in one direction.

I patted both of them on the shoulder and motioned to dive.

"I found living water at the bottom of the river." I gasped and looked at the two of them.

"Living water? What living water? Niu Er asked stupidly.

He Yi's physical strength also decreased significantly, and he wiped a handful of water on his face, "Living water is flowing water." Then he turned to me, "How do you know there is living water?" Why didn't you just go in the direction of the living water? ”

He Yi's unintentional words caught my attention, "You are not a detective, have you ever been a special soldier?" "He Yi's physical strength is more serious than I imagined, and I can only barely bear my head in the water now without choking to death. And although He Yi's physical strength is not as good as before, he is comfortable enough.

He Yi looked at me thoughtfully, and unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth, "You are very smart, but you are used to being a good person, and you can't imagine my world." ”

"Your acting skills are good." I laughed.

He Yi sneered, "Mercenaries hire lives, and I must be perfect to ensure the safety of my own life." Of course, in front of your boss, I leaked, "Why don't you go down alone without asking for our opinion."

Niu Er watched He Yi disappear into the water in wonder, and paused word by word, "Mercenary, don't you want money or death?" More special forces than special forces? ”

"His name is not He Yi, or he himself doesn't know his real name." I dived into the water as soon as I said that.

Mercenaries, the word is far away from us, and even some people have not heard of the word mercenary. They may live all around us and we don't know it. Mercenaries, the people who were hired for the war, have always followed their term 'money and not life', I don't know what He Yi went through to make him a mercenary, let alone who he served. I'm not stupid enough to ask, because to know is to die.

The speed of this dive was very fast, minus the time of the last groping, and I found the exact direction of the current. I turned my head to look at Niu Fat, and made sure he was following him, so I swam in the direction of the current. The water flowed as fast and fast as I expected, and finally it was pushed down the current with almost no effort.
