Chapter 35: The Body



Zhang Tangrui nodded and said, "Yes, but it has been almost destroyed there, so we didn't get any news, but we found some clues along the way, as well as a person." ”

Person?

I can't help but be a little stunned, in the Mother Country of the Western Queen, apart from Zhang Tangrui's gang of cattle, who else will be there?

Probably coming into contact with my doubtful eyes, Zhang Tangrui spontaneously explained: "We don't know this person, but the location where he appeared is more peculiar, so we took him out, secretly placed him in a place, and visited, and then, according to this person, we knew you, Wu Xie." ”

I vaguely felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but say, "Know me through him?" I don't know what kind of immortal he is? ”

Zhang Tangrui said: "Which way is the fairy, I'll show you a photo, you will naturally know." After a pause, he said, "Originally, I didn't plan to tell you about this matter so early, but since the words have already been spoken, I won't hide it." After he finished speaking, he looked at Jinjing, who nodded, and after a moment, pulled out a photo from a notebook.

At the first glance of this photo, I only felt a buzz in my head, and the whole person's three souls and seven spirits flew away, and my eyes were suddenly extremely hot, and I couldn't speak for a long time.

Third uncle.

The person in the photo is unchained.

To be exact, though, it's the face of a corpse. The face is stiff and blue, but it is not rotten, and the background is in a coffin, and it can be seen that the material of the coffin is still good.

I was originally holding the black gold ancient knife in my arms, but the moment I saw this photo, the knife suddenly couldn't hold it and slammed it to the ground.

The fat man gasped and exclaimed, "Third Master Wu? I'm not dreaming, am I? ”

I almost immediately pulled out the photo in Jinjing's hand, looked at the person in the photo for a long time, and then reluctantly regained my voice, I said, "Where did you find it?" ”

Jin Jingdao: "In a mudflat, but the strange thing is that this corpse has not decomposed, so it caught our attention. Based on his coat and hat, we deduced that he was a group of people who had recently visited the Western Queen Mother's country, so we transported the body back and conducted relevant investigations, and soon we found out that his name was Wu San Province. ”

I said, "Where is his body now?" ”

Zhang Tangrui patted me on the shoulder and said: "At first, we didn't know who you were, so this corpse was originally intended to be used to blackmail you, but then you agreed, so we plan to return him to you as a thank you gift after the matter is completed, and now, he is being placed in a secret stronghold of our Zhang family, I can't say where it is, but when the matter is resolved, I will definitely return it to you, after all, the corpse is not very useful to me." ”

The fat man was dumbfounded, shook his head for a while, and said, "The surname is Zhang, the fat man really convinced you this time." "Speaking of this, I know that I have been fooled again, not fooled, to be exact, but coercion, but this coercion, I have no resistance at all.

Whether it's this black gold ancient knife or the body of the third uncle, it's impossible for me to give it up. In the end, I could only say, "Well, I promise, nothing will happen, and from now on, we will be allies of the united front." ”

Zhang Tangrui said: "If you say so, then I will rest assured." ”

At this time, Zhang Jinjing spoke: "But I have always been curious, why your third uncle's body did not decompose, you know, when we found him, he was soaked in the mudflat, but what is particularly strange is that not only the body did not decompose, but even the insects did not dare to approach." ”

I was stunned and couldn't help but say, "Does the corpse smell otherwise?" ”

Zhang Jinjing said: "No." ”

Originally, I wondered if it would have something to do with the encounter with the archaeology of Xisha in the unchain, but when Zhang Jinjing said this, I felt even more weird, insects did not dare to approach, this is not the ability that the forbidden woman has, but like the blood of a stuffy oil bottle.

Could it be that the blood in the body of the unraveling chain also has that ability, but it is only stimulated after death?

And what about my second blood? Why did it suddenly disappear?

The third uncle's body is not decomposed, is there any connection with this?

I think everything is very chaotic, I, unchained, stuffy oil bottle, we are not related at all, but we have a strange thing in common, what the hell is going on?

If it is said that the incorruptibility of the chain is because of the blood, then what about me? When I die, will my body not decay? Is it the same with stuffy oil bottles? Suddenly, I remembered the matter of the Zhang family's molten iron sealing coffin, and couldn't help asking: "After your Zhang family dies, will the corpse decompose?" ”

"Absolutely." Zhang Jinjing rolled his eyes and said, "We are human, not immortals." ”

At this point, everything seems to be in doubt.

Zhang Tangrui had to hurry up to find the stuffy oil bottle because of the internal affairs of the Zhang family, and he was not sure that he could persuade the stuffy oil bottle with amnesia, so he had to pull me and the fat man, and even used a chain scheme, first the password map, then the tracker, and even the body of the third uncle.

I admit that this is a group of amazing people, when I didn't know anything with the fat man, they had already made a very systematic plan, I think, no matter what I and the fat man want to do next, it is estimated that it is expected by Zhang Tangrui.

This is the end of the topic, there is still a period of time before dawn at this moment, and Zhang Tangrui and others have been in a hurry for a day and a night, so they continue to rest.

Since it was relatively safe, we didn't have a vigil, we set up a tent on the ground, and we slept in the tent in twos and threes. The black gold ancient knife Zhang Tangrui was also very generous, and gave it directly to me and the fat man, he said, originally I wanted to wait to see the patriarch, or as a meeting gift, play a dozen emotional cards, now it seems that getting our trust is equivalent to getting the trust of the patriarch, and it is not a big deal to hand over things to us.

The fat man held the knife and said: "Innocent comrade, don't think too much, think too much about the headache, we have nothing to be ashamed of planting this time, losing in the hands of the Zhang family is similar to losing in the hands of the little brother, there is no shame." ”

I wanted to say, what if it's not the Zhang family? But as soon as he remembered what had been eavesdropped earlier, he held back and didn't ask. That night, we rested all night, because Zhang Tangrui and others were too tired, so they slept until noon the next day.

I slept with the fat man until 10 o'clock and got up, and the fat man went to the forest to shoot some birds, wash and peel them, and when the things were baked, Zhang Tangrui and others also woke up. Zi said, the color appetite is also, the fat man's bird meat made Jinjing and the others look a little lighter, and the atmosphere is like returning to the beginning, of course, what has happened cannot be regarded as if it has not happened, in the tranquility in front of him, there are some truths and some falses, which is not clear.

After eating the bird's meat, we carried our gear to the lake that the fat man had said.

It's noon, and the summer weather, combined with the dwarf trees, makes the sun shine straight down and the lake sparkles. The lake is not wide, only about ten meters, but it is very long, and it stretches into the mountain pass.

Jinjing immediately went to the river to wash his face, untied his hair and washed the mud on it, and was washed by the water, and suddenly revealed his snow-white skin, which was very eye-catching in our group of old men.

The fat man said: "It's a benefit, don't look at it." ”

I nodded in agreement, if I have the opportunity to say, since I can't resist, then enjoy it obediently, it's a foregone conclusion, and I won't be able to get along with myself, so many years, there are too many things that make people disturb, and I'm not bad at this one, so I stood on the side with the fat man and looked at the beauty bathing picture, it's a pity that it's not all stripped naked, although Jinjing is bold, but it's not bold enough to dew point.

Soon, Zhang Tangrui and others surveyed the lake, but the river said a more shocking news, he said: "This lake was dug out by hand. ”

This is a bit of a joke, this lake stretches from where we are, all the way to the broken mountain pass, it is a long distance, and the lake is quite deep, if it is really dug by man, how long will it take?

Even if it is a modern technology, if you don't dig for three or five months, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it, and if you put it in ancient times, relying on manpower and horses, at least 100 people have to work for a year and a half, which is not a joke.

I asked the river if it was wrong, and the river shook his head against the face that looked like a stuffy oil bottle: "This can't be wrong, the traces of artificial digging are very obvious." ”

Jin Jing had already finished washing at this time, shook his wet and soft black hair, and said, "If it was dug by someone, where is the soil piled up?" With so much soil, it is impossible to deliberately pave it, and it must be piled up in the nearest place. ”

Jinjing's question is very crucial, because there are no large mounds of earth in our vicinity.

River water: "This lake is relatively large, it is impossible to have only one unearthed place, it is estimated that it is scattered into small pieces, and it will be flattened when the heavy rain washes away." ”

It's possible, and I can't help but wonder, what are you digging such a big lake for? And it goes straight to the broken mountain pass, is it also for traffic considerations, what to transport into it?

Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt very reliable, if the inside is really the ultimate location, then according to my previous analysis with the fat man, the Zhang family will definitely reprocess the ultimate, that is, to rearrange the periphery, lay a net of heaven and earth, and the secret passage of the mechanism, I am afraid that it is not inferior to Wang Zanghai, and it is precisely because of such a huge mechanism to be arranged, so a lot of materials have to be transported, so this waterway was dug.

If this is the case, how dangerous should the Zhang family be to cover for the ultimate?

I looked at the lake in front of me, and suddenly a sense of crisis arose about the road ahead, and I am afraid that this trip will be dangerous.

After Zhang Tangrui listened to the report of the river, he didn't have a surprised expression, he nodded, and said: "It is naturally best to have this ready-made waterway, and make a raft." Then we began to cut down the small trees around us, and as the number of people increased, we set up two large rafts, and it was not difficult for all of us to set up the rafts, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon the rafts were launched.

We estimated the time, and as long as there were no accidents, then at about seven o'clock tonight, we should be able to reach the broken mountain pass, and then rest for the night, and then we can go into the mountain tomorrow morning to look for clues.
