But Peanut was there today, and he didn't say anything at the time, feeling as if he didn't care about these things. In this way, it means that Peanut is looking at these people as outsiders.

Having said that, Daddy is like this, and I think even if he is still hiding something, it should be just some trivial issues. His words tonight were almost his last words, and when it came to this, I felt that I should die too.

Looking at Daddy like that, I comforted him, "Don't worry too much, we have Qin Feng and Er Dumb along the way, and the peanuts are still there, if you really can't help it, the fat man can also block two knives for you, he has thick skin, and it's absolutely no problem to take a few knives." Besides, what kind of person are you?"

Daddy told me that he was amused, and the father and son did not continue to talk about these things until two o'clock in the morning, and then we went back to the hotel to sleep.

The next day, before 9 a.m., I woke up, and I woke up to the heat, and I sat up and found myself sweating. The climate of this place is really strange enough, it is autumn, and you can see snow-capped mountains in the distance, but in the daytime, it is ridiculously hot.

After taking a shower, it didn't take long for the fat man and peanuts to come to the door. When I saw that the two of them were dressed quite thickly, I couldn't help but say, "Are you planning to hold back the heat or sweat and lose weight?" ”

The fat man reached my bed, "You know a fart, the sun is poisonous here, we foreigners, if we don't wrap it tightly, the skin of our body will definitely bloom." ”

I was noncommittal, so I asked Peanut: "We will leave tomorrow, what are we going to do today?" ”

Peanut turned on the TV, and we couldn't understand what was playing in it. Peanut looked at the TV and said absentmindedly, "It's mainly about resting, and besides, it's time to look at that map." ”

"That's right." The fat man answered. "Miss, it's better for you to open your mouth about this matter."

When I think about it, I can't help but think it's quite interesting. Although I am also a member of the Yuan family, in the eyes of Peanut and Fatty, I am with them, and Daddy, Qin Feng and Er Dumb are much more estranged. It seems that the so-called division of forces and political blocs in the world may have been formed in this way from the beginning.

Maybe gradually, I will rely less and less on Daddy.

I drank a lot last night, and Daddy shouldn't have woken up so soon. So the three of us went downstairs by ourselves and ran out of the house to have breakfast.

That shop was still open last night, and it was selling breakfast again. The owner has rested, and the store has been replaced by a hostess.

The three of them ordered some local snacks and talked again. I was a little excited at first. gave the two of them the oil and vinegar to the previous things in Shanxi, but when Yao Hui was mentioned later. A heart sank again.

"Where is that old thief Sima?"

It took me a few minutes to finish. Peanut suddenly asked.

"Ah, where is it?" I was a little stunned, and I still stuffed ghee in my mouth and poured naan, so I squeaked and said, "Well, I haven't inquired about this, why are you asking this?" ”

"It's fine. Just ask. Peanut smiled and said, "Be careful not to choke." ”

Tsk, you said that Peanut is a person, isn't this an obvious tone of coaxing children? But there's nothing I can do with him. The fat man put down the milk tea, wiped his tongue on his teeth and said, "You ask me about this kind of thing." ”

"Oh, you know?" Peanut's expression looked understated, but I still felt that he was a little too concerned about the old thief.

"Of course, everyone on this road knows that Sima Lao Thief is a demon, if you want to ask him where his ancestral home is, no one will know, but everyone says that the old guy is home in the ancient tomb, you want to find it, go to the bucket in Xiangxi, maybe you can go to his house for a cup of tea."

"Live in an ancient tomb?" I swallowed the ghee and poured naan, "Then he is really not human?" ”

Peanut said: "It's not as weird as you think, the so-called 'half-lifed' is actually no different from a living person, he just used some special methods to accumulate corpse qi on his body, under normal circumstances, a slightly heavier corpse qi is to kill people, so Sima Lao Thief's body must be very strong, and he has also been transformed by some ancient methods." As long as he is handled properly, his lifespan will be much longer than that of ordinary people, but there are some things that ordinary people have, but half-lives do not. ”

"Oh" The fat man nodded, "No wonder some people say that the old guy lived for more than a hundred years, eh, brother, isn't that half a life hard for half of his life?"

"Can you think of something else?" I glared at the fat man and then at Peanut, "What about the 'living dead'?" I've heard Daddy say that the pure living dead are all born. But I know that this born zombie, tsk, isn't it a bit too much? ”

Even now, I may still not be able to accept the fact that Yao Hui is a zombie.

Peanut said that I don't need to know so much, and after speaking, he went out of the store, looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and began to smoke.

Staring at Peanut's back, I thought to myself that he must have a lot of things in mind about this trip right now. To this day, we still don't know which dynasty's tomb the Illusory Snow Forbidden City is, only that it is a cemetery of a country, and everything in that country may be buried inside.

The fat man suddenly pushed me gently, and I asked him what he was doing, and the fat man whispered: "You just asked that question, the little brother is not bad to say, but I think that after you say it, you may feel uncomfortable." ”

"What's wrong with me." Saying that, my eyes rolled, "What, you know the way?" ”

The fat man had an expression of 'Lao Tzu in the sky knows half of the Tao, and the earth knows everything', "You just said, it is normal for this person to have a child, and it is normal for a dead doll to give birth, and it is absolutely impossible to give birth to a zombie." If you want the child to be born a 'corpse', then there is only one possibility, and that is that the child's mother or father has to be a dumpling. ”

When I heard this, I almost knocked over the milk tea bowl in front of me. But if you think about it, it's still what the fat man said.

He continued: "This is all what I heard, the living dead such a thing, you may not be able to meet one in hundreds of years, the key difficulty is that the zongzi is a dead person, and it is impossible for a dead person to have fertility." Want it to have. That is against the sky, so under natural conditions, it is impossible for the living dead to appear. The woman you just mentioned, her parents may have been prepared by your Yuan family for a long time, and the things behind this are too evil to see the light. ”

My eyelids jumped, could it be that Yao Hui's appearance was not a coincidence, and even her birth was created by Daddy.

"These things are not new anymore." The fat man lit a cigarette, "You're going to pull out all the grave robbers' homes, it's no less sensational than any alien creature." ”

Suddenly. I can't eat this breakfast again. But that thing is in the past, and even if Daddy did something, it doesn't matter to me anymore. Except for Yao Hui's infinitely pitiful face, I don't want to remember anything anymore.

You say that Tashkurgan is a city, but after walking around for a while. I think she's more of a hub. The natural scenery and human civilization of the Western Regions have demarcated the boundaries here, blowing the wind of Kunlun Mountain. The honking of a car on the road. The whiteness of the snow-capped mountains, and the silver rings under the earlobes of Tajik girls. Everything was so harmonious, even the heat and cold disappeared here, as if this vast land could dissolve everything in the human heart, and all that was left was feeling—a feeling that one didn't have to feel anything.

When I got back to the hotel. Daddy has gotten up. When I arrived at the door of his suite, I saw a stunned man with one arm serving him a cup of milk tea, and Qin Feng was standing aside with the ghee, naan and meat. Wait for Daddy to come over and eat.

"Tut-tut." The fat man couldn't help but shake his head, "You said that they are all thieves, why is the difference between special mothers so big?" ”

I smiled wryly and walked inside. Daddy's room was the most spacious room in the hotel, and it didn't seem crowded for six people.

Maybe it's really the theme of the day is rest, so Daddy is also more relaxed, asking us if we have eaten, and chatting with fat people like a family.

Seeing that Daddy had almost finished eating, the fat man turned around and glanced at me. So, I asked Daddy if he should take out the map and show it to everyone.

This thing is really strange, no one in our country knows about the Phantom Snow Forbidden City, and there is a map of the Phantom Snow Forbidden City hidden in the waterlogs that are broken. It was given to me by Peanut, and I don't know if he really hadn't seen it or if he was deliberately hiding something.

"Yes." It may be that he was happy to drink with me last night, Daddy was very cheerful today, and after Qin Feng closed the doors and windows, he took out the wine jug from under his pillow.

We all gathered around, and Daddy looked at the five of us back and forth, and then said to Peanut, "Do you know what's going on here?" ”

The fat man shook his face, "Old man Yuan, don't grind, let's just take a few glances and feel at ease." ”

Qin Feng suddenly pushed the fat man from behind, "What are you anxious about, you think everyone is like you, no one has a priority." ”

The fat man was about to stand up when he stared, but Daddy hurriedly waved his hand at Qin Feng, and I quickly pulled the fat man back.

"What's wrong with the two of you being rivals in love in your last life, why did you become popular as soon as you opened your mouth, you are in your thirties, and you still need people to stare at it?" I just said.

After my voice fell, the fat man and Qin Feng were dumbfounded, Qin Feng didn't say anything, usually when I talk like this, the fat man will definitely come to me. But right now, both of them seem to be suppressed by me, and neither of them is silent.

Hey, I feel a little weird about my fire, too.

I don't know what Lu Dao is for, Daddy looked at me a little distractedly, and Peanut on the side looked at Daddy with a strange smile.

"Uh, okay, then I'll just say it." Daddy coughed dryly twice, and the big guy's attention was focused on his hand again.

Then, Daddy said to the second stunned man: "Where are the things I want you to prepare?" ”

"It's all done." After saying that, the second stunned turned around and took out a kettle from the cabinet, and as soon as the lid was unscrewed, we smelled a very strong smell of wine.

Daddy took the kettle, shook it, sniffed it for a while, and then poured a little more into his hand.

Looking down, the kind of wine in the kettle was very strange, it looked like water, but when it reached Daddy's hand, it was like mercury, clump after clump, very slippery.

"Old man Yuan, what kind of wine is this, why have I never seen it?" The fat man asked, apparently trying to pay for two mouthfuls.

"This is made with deer oil and Wuliangye, and you can't drink it, but if any of you is injured in the future, use this wine to treat your wounds. Definitely better than alcohol. Daddy laughed.

I snorted, "Dad, who still has time to find deer oil when they're injured, you can tell me what this has to do with the map." ”

Daddy probably wants to show off with us, and it is naturally disappointing for me to say this. Then, he asked the two stunned to close the curtains, and the room suddenly went dark.

Daddy put everything else on the table, then opened the rusty stainless steel flask and poured the deer oil wine into it. When it is overflowing. Daddy is still pouring inside.

After a while, the floor was full of alcohol. But Daddy still didn't stop, little by little, the waterline kept drilling into the flask.

The fat man whispered in my ear: "Is your old man not good at eyesight, why don't we remind him?" ”

The fat man finished. Daddy spoke.

"The map is inside, and the wine can't get in the air. Otherwise the map is ruined. He said. Daddy continued to pour wine into it, "This is a technical job, and the time has to be just right." Hmph, do you feel any difference? ”

I was stunned for a moment, looked around, and nothing had changed

"It's cold."

Qin Feng, the second stunned man and the fat man said in unison. Peanuts are silent.

"Hmm." Daddy nodded.

What's the matter, bullying Lao Tzu is unresponsive. But when I felt it carefully, it was really cold in the room. At this time, Daddy suddenly stopped. Then he put down the kettle and turned the flask in his other hand upside down.

Although the light is not good, I can see clearly. The deer oil wine did not immediately spill on the spout of the pot, but slowly lay out like honey, which seemed to be thicker than before, and there was a faint layer of cold.

The deer butter slowly slipped on the table, and then spread out. Suddenly, a subtle dark blue light slid down the jug onto the table along the trail of the deer. Soon, the wine in the flask was completely on the table. And that glowing blue line is also completely presented in front of our eyes.

At this point, Daddy casually threw the broken flask aside.

At this time, our attention is also on the table. I don't know what Lu Dao is for, but the deer oil wine on the table stopped moving after spreading out a little, like a transparent piece of amber, wrapping the blue silk thread inside.

At this point, we were all stunned. Because the glowing slender blue line in front of me was actually moving.

It should be three or five meters long, but it is just a ball of deer oil. In front of our eyes, it was like an otherworldly creature, slowly crawling around, changing its forms.

This kind of thing is so rare that even Daddy is careful.

Peanut didn't say anything, and his attention was extraordinarily focused, while the four of us were speechless as if we were watching strange things.

"What the hell is this thing for?" The fat man asked.

"Be quiet, what if it gets frightened?" Qin Feng lowered his voice and said hurriedly.

The fat man was in no mood to quarrel with him, "Eh, you see, it seems to be twisting itself into a picture." ”

We've all seen that some parts of the blue line have been fixed as the movement of the blue line has changed. The thing seemed to be swimming aimlessly, but its demeanor was as delicate as threading a needle. In a few moments, a third of its body was fixed.

That's when I guessed what was going on. Maybe when the thing in front of us finally freezes, it's the map we want. It's not some clever trick, it's an incredible sight. If the glowing blue line is truly an earthly creature, it is simply a mockery of our human perception.

As the thing moved smaller and smaller, the more and more we talked about it. Qin Feng and Er were both guessing what that thing looked like, and I also felt that the thing in front of me looked familiar after it was fixed, but I couldn't tell it for a long time. Peanut's eyes began to move rapidly, and he seemed to be shoehorning the line in front of him into his head. But the strange thing is that at this time, the fat man didn't move at all.

In the blink of an eye, the fat man was like a dead fish, his eyes were fixed on the table, but his eyes were not here.

I nudged him, "You're stupid, look, what does this thing look like?" ”

As I spoke, the thing barely moved, and the picture of its elongated body was completely visible to us.

The fat man turned his face to me like a wooden chicken, and suddenly he stepped on me with his foot right underneath. That one hurts, I almost screamed. But I finally held back, the fat man couldn't be really stupid, he must be hinting at me by doing this.

But I didn't understand, and after that, I twisted the muscles on my face and looked at the picture again.

Could it be that the fat man thinks there is something strange about this picture? Even if there is, he can wait with everyone, me, this

In an instant, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Oh my God, this, how is this possible!

The fat man saw that I was too excited, so he stepped on me again, and this time he pushed harder, but I didn't feel any pain at all.

The thing on the table completely turned into a beautiful transparent blue amber. The contents were completely still. The blue threads form a strange pattern, which looks exactly like the totem that the fat man and I saw before.

On the envelope, in the witch tomb, in the past of old Shanghai, this totem appeared again and again, and at this moment, it came to our eyes again, becoming a road map to guide us to the Phantom Snow Forbidden City.

When Daddy, Qin Feng, Erzi and Peanut were seriously memorizing this map, my brain began to ache again. (To be continued......)
