Chapter 331: Bright Flowers
Everyone saw the ruins of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness that had been lost on those moving fruit trees, but it was already late at that time, and the Gu worms in their bodies made them have no way to rest during the day, so Zhou Yuefeng asked everyone to rest here, and Cui Fatzi took the initiative to ask for help, so Zhou Yuefeng asked him to keep vigil for everyone.
And the next morning they disappeared Cui Fatzi, and finally found Cui Fatzi who was fetching water by a stream, and the two returned to the camp and were dragged aside by Ma Monkey and Liu Xi, the facts told them that there was another team of Japanese here, on the one hand, in order to avoid those Japanese, but also to be able to find the ruins of the ancient city of Nanhuang as soon as possible, so they quietly walked out from the side.
But what they didn't expect was that they walked from dawn to dark, and everyone was so tired that they were about to collapse, and they didn't find the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness in this wilderness and dense forest. And based on the distance they had measured with their eyes in the trees at the time, they should have walked to the side of the ruins by now, and the darkness of the night covered the wilderness made them lose their sense of direction even more.
It turned out that they were lost, they were completely lost in the wilderness. Zhou Yuefeng raised his eyes and looked at the road ahead, which seemed longer and endless, so he said to the brothers: "Everyone take out the tent and squint first, and we will continue to find the way tomorrow morning." ”
Everyone didn't speak because they were too tired, Dongzi took out the tent in the equipment very neatly and set it up, Zhou Yuefeng said: "Brothers, go to the tent and sleep, I'll just guard you alone." Ma Monkey and Yuelin both competed with Zhou Yuefeng, because he kept vigil alone too many times during this time, and they also wanted him to rest, but Zhou Yuefeng insisted on guarding himself, and everyone knew that no one could change what he decided, so they went into the tent to sleep.
Zhou Yuefeng didn't close his eyes much this night, on the one hand, he was worried that something terrible would happen to the ruins of the ancient city near the Southern Wilderness, on the other hand, he was also afraid that the Japanese team they saw during the day would make a sneak attack, and there was the big rabbit who could talk and dance that would suddenly appear without knowing when.
But fortunately, he didn't encounter these things, and this night was relatively smooth, and the Gu worms in their bodies were like alarm clocks the next morning, and they called them up at that timed time, and everyone walked out of the tent one after another, and saw Zhou Yuefeng standing aside.
The horse monkey said, "Brother Feng, you haven't closed your eyes all night, have you?" Let's take turns to keep vigil in the future, otherwise one person will definitely not be able to stand it. Zhou Yuefeng waved his hand, and then said: "This place is quite peaceful, but the woods here are too dense, and it is very difficult to find the remains of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness. ”
After saying that, they continued to walk forward in this wilderness and dense forest, but compared with yesterday, after a night's rest, everyone's spirits were much better. It was said that everything would naturally go smoothly when the mood was good, and just when everyone walked a short distance forward, suddenly a little brother said: "Young Master Feng, there is a situation!! ”
Everyone hurried over, and when they looked closely, they saw that there were many ruins on the ground. These walls look like they've been weathered for a long time, and they don't have any edges and corners, and everything that has edges and corners has been smoothed out, and it looks very historic.
It's just that these ruins are lying in the dense forest, and it seems that these trees only grew after the destruction of this ancient city. Zhou Yuefeng stepped forward and took the frog sword and fiddled with these bricks, because his family is in the jewelry and antique business, so he has a certain ability to appreciate these antiquities, he looked at them carefully and said: "These things should be thousands of years old." ”
When this sentence came out, everyone felt even more that these things must be clues to the ruins of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness, so their hearts were also excited. And at this time, Zhou Yuefeng suddenly made a gesture to everyone, and then everyone hid in the grass next to them.
Just when everyone was just hidden, a group of Japanese really walked in front of them not far away with heavy steps, Zhou Yuefeng took a closer look at their feet and necks, and found that although these people were wearing very high boots, they also had a plaster attached to the side of the boots.
This plaster was discovered by accident when they were passing through the mass grave, and they encountered insects, but at this time, they saw that these Japanese were also wearing these plasters, obviously someone in them leaked secrets, but who this person is Zhou Yuefeng has not figured out, he looked around at these brothers who were hidden around, and felt that the only suspicious thing was the little brothers he was not familiar with, but there was no conclusive evidence and he could not frame people casually, so he could only quietly observe further actions.
When the group of Japanese passed, Zhou Yuefeng knew that it was useless for them to hide, if there were really traitors in these people, no matter where they hid, they would be found out, so he straightened up and said, "It's good to do it yourself." Of course the others didn't understand, but that traitor must know what Zhou Yuefeng meant. Zhou Yuefeng can be regarded as scaring the snake, wanting to let the snake run out of chaos by itself.
He didn't have the mood and energy to catch the traitor now, because the ruins in front of him told him that now it was the most important thing to find the missing palace ruins of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness with these things. He looked around and knew that these Japanese were brought by some of them, and it was useless to dodge, this battle was inevitable, but he didn't know if it was after entering the ancient city or getting the fragment of the Great Seal of the Soul Suppression.
The horse monkey said: "Brother Feng, the Japanese have also passed, there are so many bricks and tiles here, it is estimated that it must be the ruins of some ancient city, let's hurry up and look around, how can I say that it is also a country, there must be a lot of treasures buried in the palace and the underground palace, by the way, Brother Feng, do you say that this country has not been destroyed?" The corpses of the queen and prince are in Zhongshan, so who is buried here? ”
In fact, Zhou Yuefeng had already thought of this question before he set off, the old man said that the ruins of this palace had been transformed into an ancient cemetery palace, and a country would definitely not do such a thing before it perished, at most he wanted to build a mausoleum for himself in advance, and that was also another location, and he would never build an underground palace in his own country's palace, which was so unlucky.
Therefore, this underground palace under this ancient city in the Southern Wilderness was definitely not built by the king at that time, and it can even be said that it was built by the royal family. Moreover, all the people in the Southern Wilderness at that time were driven away, so the lord, the queen, and the prince all died in a foreign land, and the queen and the prince could still be found, so the lord of the country did not know what kind of torture he had suffered, and where would anyone dare to collect his body if he died like this.
After these considerations, Zhou Yuefeng judged that the owner of the tomb here should not be someone else, it was the prime minister who came back with the fragment of the Great Seal of the Soul Suppression, and it was he who transformed this palace into an underground palace, and the eternal follower of the Southern Wilderness Country was buried underground, and this legend must have a purpose.
This purpose is not only to let everyone find him or the Great Seal of the Soul Suppression, but more likely to leave a clue for the descendants of the Zhou family, of course, these are all Zhou Yuefeng's guesses, and the reason why he wants to pass down the legend for his descendants to pass it on from generation to generation, and also say that this thing belongs to their family, there is only one explanation.
Since ancient times, there has been a kind of psychology, that is, it is not about oneself to hang high, one's own life is good, who cares about other people, each sweeps the snow in front of the door, and this legend is passed down as their own family, they know that this thing has found good for their own family, and they will naturally do their best to find the descendants of the Zhou family, if it is simply said that it is for the descendants of the Zhou family to find the soul seal and leave clues, I am afraid that gradually no one will pay attention to it, and this legend will not be able to be passed down for nearly a thousand years.
But what Prime Minister Wang never expected was that for the sake of this thing that he didn't know existed, these people actually cultivated Gu worms in the past thousand years, and put these Gu worms on their bodies, which felt ridiculous when he thought about it, so he didn't notice the opinions of the people around him, and grinned.
This small action was captured by Cui Fatzi, and he immediately asked, "Brother Feng, what are you laughing at?" Do you already know who is buried in the underground palace in the ruins of this ancient city in the Southern Wilderness? Or do you already have a clue to find the ruins of this ancient city? After speaking, everyone looked at him, hoping to get some good information from Zhou Yuefeng.
But Zhou Yuefeng shook his head and said, "I don't know, let's take a step and see a step." Everyone who said this sentence immediately lost their confidence, but the most careful Cui Fat Man knew that he must have some eyebrows in his heart, otherwise he would definitely not show such an expression.
Everyone continued to walk forward, at this time the compass in Zhou Yuefeng's hand suddenly rotated rapidly, everyone looked at the compass a little overwhelmed, but they didn't dare to move at all, they could only stand there and look at the compass, everyone stared at the compass for a full quarter of an hour and did not stop.
But the speed of rotation is much smaller, it seems to be moving in a uniform circle, it looks like the second hand in a clock, as if there is some internal driving force, so that the compass rotates slowly like this, Zhou Yuefeng did not have much expression on his face when he saw such a scene.
Because this proves that they have arrived, but he doesn't know if it will be a good or bad thing after entering, he doesn't know if he will encounter any monsters or dangers, and whether the Japanese will do anything to them in this place or will they wait until they get the fragments of the Great Seal of the Soul Suppression.
Zhou Yuefeng didn't speak, everyone didn't know the meaning of this compass, they just thought that the compass hadn't stopped yet, they all stared, Zhou Yuefeng said coldly: "Brothers, get ready for battle!" When everyone heard this, they didn't know that they had arrived at the ruins of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness, and they thought that there was some danger beside them.
As soon as they heard Zhou Yuefeng's order, they were all ready for battle, and just when everyone was ready, suddenly Zhou Yuefeng pointed to the side and said, "The ruins of the palace of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness are over there!! Everyone looked up, and sure enough, there was something not far away that they hadn't noticed, standing high in the dense woods, looking very incongruous, thinking that it was the ruins of the ancient city of the Southern Wilderness.
