Chapter 40: Lost and Returned

After I agreed with Seventh Master Zha Ling'er on how to distinguish the real from the fake, I beckoned the fat man to return to the team.

When I got back to the crowd, I saw Zha Ling'er drinking water, so I said to her, "Ling'er, you have suffered before. I'll give you a little trick to make you happy. ”

When Zha Ling'er heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, and she became interested, urging me to change quickly.

I bent down on the ground and picked up a few leaves, pinched them with my fingers, and then shook them in front of my eyes, and the leaves suddenly caught fire.

After watching it, Zha Ling'er said to me with a lack of interest: "I often watch my seventh uncle change this trick, and it is not new. ”

I immediately took the opportunity to ask her, "Do you know the doorway?" ”

Zha Ling'er didn't answer my question, but pestered me to change again.

I had to pick up three more leaves from the ground and put them in the palm of my hand for Zar Ling'er to check if there was anything wrong with the leaves.

After checking it, Zha Ling'er said, "There is no problem. ”

I took the leaves in my palm, closed my palms, and then approached Zha Ling'er and said, "You blow a breath." ”

Zha Ling'er immediately blew into my fist with great interest, and then I spread my palm in front of her, and the original three leaves in my palm turned into three copper coins.

Zha Ling'er immediately took the copper coin in my hand and looked at it carefully, and bit it in his mouth without believing it, and then immediately said excitedly: "It's real money." Leaves can be turned into money, Brother Sven is so powerful, you won't have to worry about running out of money to spend in the future. ”

When I heard this, I said to myself: Such a simple trick has bluffed her. If only I could turn leaves into money. He has long been a billionaire.

As a result, before I could ask the question in my heart, Zha Ling'er asked me, "Brother Sven." Is your spell more powerful than my seventh uncle, then we don't have to be afraid of the tanuki spirit who can spell. ”

Such a simple language came out. I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with Zha Ling'er being her real person, not a tanuki.

Since Zha Ling'er was not transformed by a tanuki, then what she said was true, and the decision to turn back to the fairy cave to find the tomb was inevitable. And immediately they set out, and went back in the woods.

On the way back, everyone couldn't hide their excitement, but the fat man seemed a little sullen. It was very abnormal, which made me worry, so I walked up to the fat man and asked him with concern, "Fatty, are you uncomfortable?" ”

The fat man shook his head and didn't speak, and the monkey walking beside him was also quite surprised and asked, "Fat brother, you're about to enter the bucket to find the device, why are you unhappy?" ”

The fat man also did not answer the monkey's question. Instead, he suddenly stopped, clutched his stomach and said, "I'm sick to my stomach, go and make it easier, you guys are waiting for me here." Don't go far, wait for me to come back. ”

I saw the fat man's expression of pain, and thought to myself that he might be eating indiscriminately. When he was hungry, he said to him, "Don't worry." Go and come back quickly, we will definitely wait for you to come back. ”

The fat man heard this. Immediately ran away with his stomach in his hands.

As a result, we sat in place, waited left and right, and came for nearly half an hour, still not waiting for the fat man to come back. This made me worried, and I said: Could it be that the fat man was also taken away by the tanuki demon?

I was worried that something had happened to the fat man, and I couldn't sit still anymore, so I immediately said to the smoke man: "Little brother, you and the team are on standby here, and I will go with the monkey to find the fat man." I'm worried that something might have happened since he didn't come back for so long. ”

Zha Qiye frowned and said to me, "I'll go with you." ”

I nodded, and walked in the direction where the fat man had left.

The woods were full of lush trees, weeds and fallen leaves deep in the mud, and there was no fat man in sight.

As I walked through the woods, I kept calling out the fat man's name, but there was no answer from the fat man, except for the occasional bird call. My heart suddenly rose to my throat, and my heart said: It's over, the fat man really has an accident.

Seventh Master Cha, who was walking beside me, suddenly grabbed me, then squatted on the ground, brushed away a bunch of weeds with his hands, and said, "The fat man's scattered footprints are over here." However, "

I heard that the fat man's footprints had disappeared, and the seventh master of the Seventh Zha looked stern and stopped, and hurriedly asked him, "But what?" ”

Seventh Master Zha raised his head and looked at me and said, "Ling'er is real, but the fat brother may be fake!" ”

Seventh Master's words were like thunder, and they exploded in my brain, directly blowing me up to the ground, dizzy, hurriedly stabilizing my mind, and then asked, "How can you see it?" ”

Zha Qiye pointed to a blurred footprint on the ground and said, "This is an animal's footprint." Where the footprints of the fat brothers disappeared, the paw prints of animals appeared. ”

I really didn't want to believe that the fat man who was still talking to me and giving me an idea just now turned out to be fake, so I was a little unconvinced, and defended the conclusion of the seventh master: "Perhaps, the fat man was taken away by the tanuki spirit here, so his footprints disappeared, and only the paw prints of animals remained. ”

After Seventh Master Zha stood up from the ground, he looked me in the eye and asked me, "Did you feel that something was wrong with the fat man just now?" ”

I immediately thought about it carefully, and the fat man did have something abnormal before, but it was not enough to show that he was fake. But if it's really as Seventh Master said, when did the fat man get out of the bag?

When everyone drilled out of the crypt and burial chamber, the fat man's appearance was very normal, and there was nothing suspicious. Then after entering the fairy cave mansion, I was helped out of the stone cave by the fat man because of dizziness, and I was in close contact with the fat man at that time, and I didn't seem to find anything abnormal at that time. However, I can't be very sure, because Zha Ling'er was gone at that time, and I was full of worries about Zha Linger, and at that time I was suddenly dizzy for no reason, and I didn't think about the truth of the people around me at all, so I didn't pay attention to the fat man at that time, was there anything wrong?

However, thinking of what the fat man said later in the woods, I think that if the fat man was dropped, it must have been when everyone entered the fairy cave, so the fake fat man didn't want us to go back to the fairy cave. It seems that we must now return to the fairy cave again, in case the tanuki and the dog jump over the wall and kill the fat man.

On the way back, I asked Zha Ling'er, "Ling'er, you said that there is a tomb under the cave, do you know how to get in?" ”

Zha Ling'er shook her head, I guess she didn't know, after all, she was in a situation where she was abducted and had difficulty moving. So I asked, "You said there were a lot of strange things in there, but what kind of things were they?" ”

Zha Ling'er shook her head again and said, "I can't say it." However, it is not only bizarre, but also eerie. Brother Sven, after you went to see it, you will know. ”

In the tomb under the Immortal Cave Mansion, there are strange things that Zha Ling'er can't describe, which makes me feel inexplicably looking forward to it for some reason, and I want to find out as much as I can, and immediately beckoned everyone to speed up the pace. Everyone was also full of anticipation, and after a while, they came to the door of the Immortal Cave Mansion again.

However, I was shocked to find that the stone gate of the Immortal Cave Mansion was wide open, as if someone had just entered it, and I immediately told everyone to be careful, and everyone was alert to enter the Immortal Cave Mansion.

Passing through the stone pillar of the porch, everyone immediately found that there was a sneaky figure in the dormitory, thinking that it was a tanuki appearing, but when everyone rushed to its front, they found that it was a long-lost teammate Zhuge Locksmith King.

When King Zhuge saw everyone, he first showed a subtle look of surprise, and then immediately greeted me, with a look of joy on his face that he had been reunited after a long absence, but I saw something different from the surface.

I still smiled and hugged my fists to greet the locksmith king and said, "Don't come unharmed, just reunite." The locksmith king also immediately smiled and clenched his fists in return.

The appearance of the locksmith king in the Immortal Cave Mansion was completely unexpected by me, but I don't need to ask how he got here, let alone how he got here, I already know that he has a different purpose, as long as his actions do not hinder everyone's journey north, I will not bother with him.

I called Zarlinger closer and asked her if she remembered the place she had come out of the tomb.

Zha Ling'er immediately pointed to the vicinity of the stone bed, and I deliberately peeked at the King Zhuge Locksmith, and found that his face changed slightly, but it was fleeting.

Seeing the direction of Zha Ling'er's finger, everyone gathered in front of the stone bed, and there didn't seem to be any mechanism near the stone bed, could it be that they had to move the heavy stone bed?

Zha Ling'er waved his hand at everyone, like a fly, and drove away the people who were tightly surrounding the stone bed, and then walked to the side of the stone bed, kicked the bottom of the stone bed with his foot, and immediately heard a rumbling sound, and then the stone bed in front of him moved to one side more than three feet wide, revealing a dark hole and stone steps below.

A cold air wafted out from the ground, freezing everyone couldn't help but shiver.

I took out the fire fold from my bosom, blew it up, told everyone to be careful, and went down the stone steps first.

The stone steps were short, and at once they came to an end, and everyone entered the long-awaited tomb.

In the dim stone room, it was unusually cold to the bone, and you could see the white gas when talking. It was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

I stepped down the stairs, and I had only taken two steps forward when I tripped and fell, and then I heard a grunting sound like someone had their mouth covered, struggling to speak.

Fortunately, the fire fold in my hand did not take off, and I sat up and looked at the thing that had tripped over me just now. found out that it was a fat man, and he was tied up like a pig, and thrown on the cold stone floor.

I hurriedly got up, held the vajra peg, and walked over to the fat man who was tightly bound. At this time, everyone also walked down the steps one after another and found the fat man lying on the ground. (To be continued......)
