Chapter 41: Zhang Ye's Conspiracy 2
I say familiar, because I've just seen this back, the man in black.
Zhang Yang was so frightened by the man in black that he actually hid behind me, and I patted him on the shoulder like a child, meaning don't be afraid, my brother is here.
These men in black have been okay with me so far, so I decided to go over and say hello, and I will be tied up by them again and still in the pit, anyway, there is Zhang Yang watching in the dark, and I will not be buried alive inexplicably.
Approaching the shadow cautiously, I was worried that the sudden appearance behind them would bring me a punch and kick or even kill me on the spot, so I decided to take a detour from the side.
About two meters away, I whispered, the black shadow did not react, still standing straight at the head of the bridge, I think it is a little strange, it stands to reason that this place is not a feng shui treasure that can hide and need to be sentry, not to mention, if you really want to sentry, how can anyone stand in the middle of the road so swaggeringly, this is not equivalent to exposing the hiding place to the enemy?
I took another step forward, literally, because my legs were so heavy that I couldn't lift them up.
One meter, I am really only one meter away from this man in black, it stands to reason that he is an ordinary person, and he should be aware of it within this range. However, the man in black still did not react.
I began to wonder about his state and slowly moved a few steps in front of him, because my miner's lamp was dim so I couldn't see his face, but I was sure he didn't spot me.
I was already standing next to him, my hand could touch his clothes, and I did have the audacity to poke him, but the man in black was like a wax figure, not moving.
Zhang Yang leaned behind me and whispered, "Turn the lights up a little bit." ”
I did so, and as the light intensified, I almost saw a scene that would leave a sequelae for the rest of my life, the face of the man in black was blurred with gnawed flesh, and his eyes hung on one of his bare teeth, don't ask me how I hung it, I didn't dare to look at it at all.
"What's wrong with him?" I looked at Zhang Yang, "He doesn't seem to be moving." ”
"Let's take a look." Zhang Yang moved out from behind me and cautiously walked towards the man in black.
"It's him." I recognized this man, "He was one of the four people who captured Jiang Yuan." ”
After hearing this, Zhang Yang asked me very seriously: "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure." I pointed to his neck and said, "This man has a wound on his neck, it's a scratch, you see." ”
Although there were a lot of blood stains on his neck, I still saw the scratches, I pointed them out to Zhang Yang, and when he saw it, he actually reached out and grabbed his hand, the skin on his wrist was faintly blue-purple, and I saw a very strange pattern on his wrist, the complex geometric shape looked like something.
Just when Zhang Yang carefully checked his wrist, I suddenly found that the man in black moved, not only that, but his throat was also moving, as if he was swallowing something, I was startled, and instinctively jumped back, at the same time, I also saw Zhang Yang violently shake off the man's hand, pull me around and run.
Just as we had run about fifty meters, I looked back and in the dark, I felt something approaching us.
"Someone killed him?" I ran out of breath.
Zhang Yang stopped and rested for a while, "No, these people are all devils, how could they be killed, they must be others." ”
"Other ----"
"Let's go ------"
The fast running made me feel like my heart was going to explode, Zhang Yang pulled me and refused to slow down, I gritted my teeth and persisted, but the footsteps behind me were getting closer and closer, and what we saw in front of us was a straight passage, with my understanding of the architectural pattern of the Han Dynasty and before, our current position should be the road leading to the palaces.
The straight road seemed to have no end, and I ran to see if there were other entrances on either side, but unfortunately, there really weren't.
The footsteps behind him were definitely no more than three meters, Zhang Yang suddenly shouted to stop, he and I immediately retreated to the left and right, at the same time, a black shadow quickly jumped in front of our eyes, his running posture was very strange, not to mention the left and right, and his legs were also jumping straight.
Corpse.
My first instinct was zombies.
They are not agile and do not make sharp turns, so the most advantageous thing to fight them is to use the terrain and fight for physical strength, and we are certain to die.
Seeing the black-clothed zombie jumping farther and farther, I knew that he wouldn't bend, the tense nerves were temporarily relieved, and he staggered to Zhang Yang's side, and the two of them sat on the ground to rest, during which I opened the notebook pinned to my waist to read, although there were a few pages missing, but the next few contents still gave me some inspiration.
According to the information on the back pages of the notebook, Lingque Palace is the residence of the patriarch of the Rama Wu clan, and there is no way to verify what his real name is, and Lingque Palace is just a code name given by later generations.
I told Zhang Yang about my guess, according to Zhang Yang, his intelligence center also intercepted a secret message about Lingque Palace, which also mentioned the three words Jinfeng Pavilion, but because the source of the secret message was unknown, he was not sure about the reliability of the news, so he kept it, and now my notebook also states that Lingque Palace is just a code name, that is, it is very likely that this is Jinfeng Pavilion.
Golden Phoenix Pavilion, the legend is that the Golden Phoenix Fairy sits here and turns into an immortal, her body stays here after she ascends, in order to protect the mortal body from being invaded by demons, build the ancient Lan City, the Golden Phoenix Pavilion, and the ancient ancestors of the Rama Wu clan are the generations of tomb guards.
After I translated this passage, I suddenly felt that this was a little different from what I knew before, but now was not the time to study this, Zhang Yang took the notebook from my hand, turned directly to the last page, and then pointed to a line of small print to show me, "Translate this sentence." ”
This is a line of small seals written with a ballpoint pen, to be honest, writing a small seal with a ballpoint pen is also drunk, but the writing is good.
"It's not the original handwriting of the notebook." I say.
"Of course, this is Jiang Yuan's word, translate quickly." Zhang Yang seems to have gotten a very important clue.
I made it closer, and was suddenly taken aback," he said, "and let's walk along a symbol with a smiley face. ”
After hearing this, Zhang Yang snatched the miner's lamp in my hand and searched for it on the walls on both sides of the corridor, my head was a little short-circuited, and asked, "Why did Jiang Yuan write this in my notebook, and when did he write it?" ”
"He must have written it after you were caught by those people, and besides, I also saw a man in black just now, although he is dead, his appearance can show a problem, they have been here."
"Okay."
There was only one miner's lamp, so I had to take a break to regain some strength. Ten minutes later, we found a smiley face mark, and the direction that the smiley face pointed to was still directly in front of the road.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
It was still dark in front of the straight road, and I began to hate this place a little, and a nameless fire slowly ignited in the depths of my heart, and for a moment, I was thinking about the question of who had made me involved in this right and wrong, whether it was my people or publicizing them, or myself.
