Chapter 90: Parting Ways
I climbed up to him, "I'll go, what am I, I thought somebody hung half a pig here!" ”
Lantern Xiao raised her head hard and looked at me, "Zhuo Ran, your uncle!" ”
Although I was almost exhausted at this time, I still patted Lantern Xiao's foot, "Let's go, keep going!" It should be almost there! ”
Lantern Xiao nodded, let out a sigh, screamed and continued to move forward.
Gradually, the vague outline of the opposite valley appeared in front of us, which made me very happy, and I knew that we were almost at the end.
Finally, we came to the end of the chain, and it felt good to be back on our feet!
Seeing our arrival, the people who arrived first around us also gathered around. Ruan Liang helped us untie the rope. I looked at my right wrist, which was rubbed red with blood from the rapid friction of the rope when it was released.
The second uncle patted me, "How is it?" You okay? ”
I shook my head and looked at Wen Mo behind me, "The master is behind me, what can I do!" ”
Wenmo didn't seem to hear it, and of course there was no response, but I don't mind, I'm used to it!
I looked at the people of the Yuan family who were resting around, and I was still thinking about what Lantern Xiao said just now. Lantern Xiao walked up to me, probably saw my thoughts, and whispered in my ear: "Forget it, as long as it has nothing to do with us, take care of him!" ”
I nodded slightly, but in my heart I always felt that this matter would not be so simple, and it was not easy to stay out of this situation.
Judging from the previous events, we are almost certain that there is a third-party force here besides us and Yuan An, in this case, it is very likely that the traitors in Yuan An's team belong to this force. I also wondered if there was a possibility that there was a hidden fourth party here, but I didn't think it was possible. This is not a vegetable market, so it is impossible for so many people to come at once! And in such an inaccessible place, even if it is vast, if so many people come here with the same purpose, it is impossible not to intersect!
Despite this, this third-party force hidden in the shadows still worries me very much, the cigarette letter that we saw at the beginning that was unfavorable to the second uncle is likely to be from them? Could it be that they want to attack us and the Yuan family at the same time? What a big appetite!
This end of the chain, like the side we set from, was fixed to the ground. It's just that there is only one fixed point of the iron chain on this side, which is completely different from the situation on the other side of the river, and I remembered what Wenmo said, this iron chain may not really be used by the ancestors to cross the river, and the huge whirlpool in the center of the river just now, which still makes me vividly remember and have palpitations.
We each looked for a place nearby to fix it, I watched the second uncle and Yuan An discussing the route below, the rest of the Yuan family came and went, I couldn't help but fall on the glasses, all our current information about the mole came from him, but what if he was lying? I couldn't help but scratch my head, the situation is a bit complicated, except for a few of us, everyone else should be on guard!
At this time, the second uncle walked back, I saw that his face became a little ugly, I asked him what was the situation?
The second uncle lowered his voice and told us that Yuan An speculated that on this side of the river valley, there must be relics left by ancient ancestors, and as long as we follow these ruins, we will definitely be able to find the right direction. After speaking, the second uncle looked at us and asked, "What do you think?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, I had been thinking about the mole in my mind just now, and I didn't turn around for a while, so I didn't have any thoughts, "I think this method is also feasible." ”
As soon as my voice fell, Lantern Xiao next to me shook his head, "I think this matter is a bit inappropriate, I always have a feeling that the ancient ancestors here were very chicken thieves, if they rashly follow the clues they left behind, they may fall into their trap!" ”
The second uncle nodded after listening to Lantern Xiao's words, and looked at Wenmo next to him, "What do you think?" ”
Wen Mo nodded, "I agree with this statement!" As he spoke, he glanced at the Lantern Festival. I was suddenly a little embarrassed, did I make a childish mistake again? The second uncle looked at me with a smile, which made me feel even more embarrassed.
I coughed dryly, "Second uncle, do you also think you should find another way out?" ”
"That's right, I also had some disagreements with Lao Yuan just now because of this," the second uncle turned his head to look at the other people, approached us and continued: "I don't know if you still remember, I once mentioned that we speculated that the ancient ancestors here may be the Hades, but in fact, the so-called Hades are a tribe that calls itself Hades. In ancient times, this tribe was once an important member of the Jiuli tribe, after Chiyou was defeated by the Yellow Emperor, the Jiuli tribe was divided, some of them submitted to the Yanhuang tribe, and some of them lived incognito, and the dead was one of them, but unlike other tribes, legend has it that they took away the secret of the source of the strength of the Chiyou army. Therefore, for the underworld, other tribes began to track and hunt for thousands of years, and finally the underworld disappeared and it was difficult to find it again, and at the same time, the secret of the strength of the Chiyou army has also become a mystery since then! ”
Listening to the second uncle's words, I was very surprised, "Is there really such a thing?" Could it be that we are going to touch the secrets of the ancients this time? Second uncle, how did you know this? ”
The second uncle did not answer my words directly, but lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "If this speculation is correct, this is indeed the last gathering place of the underworld, then just now the Lantern Festival said that the ancient ancestors here are chicken thieves, this statement is not rough, because it has been hunted down for a long time, the underworld is extremely vigilant, so it is certain to set up defensive measures, maybe those unheard of ancient xenos are deliberately left by them." ”
I listened to the words of the second uncle, "In this way, it will be even more impossible to advance according to the relics of the ancestors." It's obvious, what do you have to disagree about. ”
The second uncle smiled bitterly, "But he doesn't think so!" As he spoke, the second uncle glanced at Yuan An.
Probably seeing the second uncle's eyes, Yuan An raised his eyebrows, and then walked over. Tian Laosi, Ruan Liang and others followed closely behind him.
When Yuan An's face is cold, he will have a sense of oppression, seeing that the person who comes is not good, I can't help but be a little nervous, and my heart says no, do you want to fight here! We don't have any advantages on our side! It wasn't until I looked at Wen Mo that I felt a little relieved, when he was under the ancient tomb on the island, the scene of him alone shocking the entire heavily armed Tang family team still makes me admire it so much!
However, at this time, Wen Mo didn't seem to be nervous, and looked around indifferently, as if he didn't see some tension in front of him at all.
Yuan An walked up to the second uncle, "How is it?" What does Second Master Zhuo think! There are so many of us, if we want to cooperate with each other, we can only have one person in charge, and now the proportion of forces between the two sides is very obvious," said Yuan An, Yuan An looked around, and the man of the Yuan family seemed to show a smug smile, "Don't worry, with our friendship, I won't let you suffer!" ”
After listening to Yuan An's words, I realized that he wanted us to listen to him. Yuan An has an uncertain temperament, although he has cooperated before, but if he becomes his subordinate and obeys his orders, then we are too passive, and this situation must not appear.
The second uncle probably thought the same way, and smiled, "An Ye! Although there are not many of us, we are all here for me, and I am also responsible for them, so it is okay to cooperate, we can discuss something, and the points are so obvious, there is no need! ”
Yuan An's eyes were cold, "Okay, I'll take a step back, I'll ask you now, will the route after that be okay according to what I said?" ”
The second uncle shook his head, "I don't think your statement is appropriate!" ”
Yuan An sneered, "Zhuo Qiuye, you don't come to this set often, when you first debuted, I still helped you, and now you say that I have a problem?" Why are you? ”
The second uncle frowned, "Yuan An, I also told you, you helped me, and I will return it to you!" Don't always put old qualifications in front of me! ”
Yuan An didn't speak, but I saw a trace of murder flashing in his eyes, and the Yuan guy behind him was also eager to try, and the two sides were fierce, and they were about to explode!
My heart almost went to my throat, and Lantern Xiao had already clicked the bullet into loading. Anador had also drawn the hook knife.
At this time, I noticed that Wen Mo turned over and pulled out a few steel needles, although this action was not big, but it not only attracted my attention, but also made Yuan An's eyes glaze out, he was present at the island tomb at that time, and he also saw Wen Mo's performance at that time.
Yuan An seemed to be still a little jealous of Wen Mo, the murderous aura in his eyes gradually dissipated, and he said coldly, "Since this is the case, let's go our separate ways, and when we meet again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" After speaking, he waved his hand and left with the Yuan family's team.
Looking at the back of the Yuan family disappearing into the mist, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Yuan An's performance just now was a little surprising to me, Yuan An, who didn't come to the old scheming first, actually had such a hot temper!
Anador pondered for a moment and said, "Uh, Qiu Ye, it's better to have multiple friends than multiple enemies in a place like this, isn't there no need to be so stiff, or I'll communicate with them again?" ”
The second uncle suddenly turned his head to look at Anado, frowned, and only said after a while: "Why, don't you believe in my ability?" ”
Anador quickly smiled and shook her head gently, "I'm just thinking about you." The second uncle smiled slightly and did not speak.
Lantern Xiao on the side frowned, "There are a lot of enemies in the open and in the dark, you have to be careful in the future!" Let's get out of here quickly, and be careful that the Yuan family kills back the carbine! ”
