Chapter Eighty-Four: Dugu Seeks Defeat
The eagle eagle flew in the air excitedly for a while, and landed in front of Guo Mo again.
Xu hadn't been in contact with people for too long, and that excitement was undoubtedly revealed in the eyes of the two eagles.
Huang Rong also hurriedly came over and stroked the eagle's wings and back with both hands, and the eagle also liked to be close to her.
After all, she is only a sixteen-year-old girl, and she has never seen such a big eagle, and she is also human, so she is very excited.
After making a fuss for a while, the eagle came to Guo Mo, grabbed Guo Mo's sleeve with his beak, and pulled him forward.
"Brother Diao, are you taking me somewhere?" Guo Mo asked knowingly.
The eagle eagle seemed to really understand the words, nodded vigorously, turned around, and led the way in front of his head.
What kind of way is this stupid carving?
It's either a ravine or a rock, or you can't see the road at all.
Thanks to Guo Mo and Huang Rong, the two of them are still doing good work, and they are walking forward with one foot high and one foot low, and they can clearly feel that the terrain is sinking as a whole.
Guo Mo concluded that it should be the misty valley he saw on the top of Daiyu Mountain.
From a distance, it looks cloudy, but when it comes close, the trees are green, the mountain air is clear, and it is a rare place.
At this time, the two of them had come to a large cave.
The eagle eagle stopped and shouted, "Coo-goo" into the cave.
"Brother Mo, could it be that this eagle was raised by a senior master? This cave is the dwelling place of the high-ranking man? Seeing this, Huang Rong asked.
This stumped Guo Mo, after all, this ruin outside Xiangyang City, because of his arrival, opened more than twenty years earlier than the original, who knows if there will be any changes.
For the sake of insurance, Guo Mo didn't go in directly, but arched his hand towards the cave, and said loudly: "Is there a senior master in the cave?" After the end of school, Guo Mo and his friends occasionally passed by here, and asked for forgiveness for their sins. ”
Guo Mo asked three times, but no one answered.
Seeing this, the eagle nodded, and pulled Guo Mo's sleeve again, signaling that he could go in.
Guo Mo stepped forward and walked into the cave, followed by Huang Rong.
The cave is not big, it is only three feet deep, except for a stone table and a stone bed in the cave, there is nothing in the cave, and it looks like no one has lived in it for too long.
At the suggestion of the eagle eagle, Guo Mo found a pile of rocks rising up at the corner of the cave, like a tomb.
Guo Mo forced the desire to go forward to find out, even if he really wanted to go, at least he couldn't do it in front of the eagle.
Even if it is found that there are bones in the rocks, it must be that person's?
"Brother Mo, it seems that this is the place where the bones of the predecessors are buried, but unfortunately although the eagle is smart, it can't speak." Huang Rong said regretfully beside her.
Guo Mo searched in the cave twice more, but found nothing.
"Brother Mo, look, there seem to be words on this wall." Huang Rong's voice came from the side.
Guo Mo hurried over, and sure enough, there were a few lines of words engraved on the wall. Looking at the traces, they were cut with a sharp blade, and for some years, a layer of moss had formed on the outside.
Guo Mo stepped forward and cleaned up the moss on the surface, and those few lines of words were fully revealed.
"For more than 30 years, I have killed all the enemies and defeated the heroes, and there is no resistance in the world, and there is nothing to do, but to live in seclusion in the deep valley and take the eagle as a friend. Woohoo, I can't get an opponent in my life, and I'm embarrassed to be lonely. ”
The following inscription is: "The sword demon is lonely and seeks defeat." ”
"Brother Mo, this Dugu senior is so powerful, he actually used the name of 'seeking defeat', has he never been defeated in his life? But how come I've never heard of that name? Huang Rong asked.
Then, he stepped forward and scratched the handwriting on the wall.
"Brother Mo, it seems that this handwriting must be at least sixty years old, if it is still alive, it must be one hundred and twenty years old according to time, right? It's the same as the 'wine fighting monk'. ”
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional, not to mention that Guo Mo is originally an "intentional" person.
Who is this "Dugu seeking defeat", and the speculation in later generations is no less than the discussion of "fighting wine monks".
Calculating the time, "Dugu Seeking Defeat" exists after the Tianlong and before the Condor, with a gap of nearly 100 years in between.
Then, when this person was young, he must have appeared in Tianlong.
In the dragon, the master of the sword......
At this time, the light in the cave dimmed.
"Rong'er, it seems that we can't go back today, so we can only make up here for the night."
"No problem, it's much stronger here than we often sleep in the wilderness, at least there's a cave to shelter from the wind and rain."
Guo Mo took a look, this cave is indeed habitable, and he can go back to the city tomorrow to bring some daily necessities, and he can live in seclusion here for a while.
"Brother Diao, we want to borrow it here for a while, do you think we can transfer the remains of 'Dugu Senior' to a place, so that he can be buried in peace?"
Guo Mo said that he didn't want to sleep with a bunch of skeletons every day.
The eagle eagle looked at the pile of rocks, and a pair of eagle eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and finally nodded silently.
Guo Mo walked out of the cave, found a relatively high hillside, and dug a tomb with the "Cold Night" sword.
Then turned back to the cave, Huang Rong wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Guo Mo.
"Rong'er, while it's still dark, you go pick up some dry firewood. This cave has not been inhabited for too long, so you need to light a fire first to get rid of the moisture. Huang Rong heard the words and went out.
Guo Mo came to the pile of rocks, and said silently in his heart: "The dead are the greatest, no matter whose bones are here, please forgive the kid for being reckless." ”
Guo Mo moved the rocks one by one, there was not much time, and a complete skeleton was exposed inside.
"Am I really overthinking?" Guo Mo squatted down, took out the fire fold from his arms, and shook it in the wind.
A flame appeared in his hand, and this special fire fold was enough to burn a meal.
Guo Mo lowered his body, holding the fire fold in one hand to illuminate, and the other hand actually pinched and pinched on this skeleton.
Finally, Guo Mo showed a smile of "I see" on his face.
I was almost fooled by the other party, and those who practice martial arts and those who have not practiced martial arts have a lot of bone density. Even if the person in front of you has been dead for a long time, you can see the difference.
Moreover, the skeleton in front of him, the lower limbs are obviously the size of a normal person, which can compare to the thickness of a martial arts practitioner.
If you look closely, there is a big crack in the bone in the neck, which is clearly broken and died before death.
The ancients paid attention to "the dead are great, and the earth is safe", it is estimated that when I made this illusion at that time, I never dreamed that I would encounter Guo Mo's wonder.
will pick up the rocks, and "touch the bones and examine the bones".
Guo Mo remained silent, gathered the bones bit by bit, and then transferred them to the dug tomb.
The pit was filled with earth, and then the stone was used on the outside, and several layers were pressed tightly to ensure that the wind and rain would not destroy the tomb.
Guo Mo did it very seriously, just like he thought, after all, "the dead are great".
After thinking about it, he found another piece of stone that was still flat, and used the "Cold Night" sword to carve the "Tomb of the Sword Demon Dugu Seeking Defeat", but in the end it was not signed.
The eagle eagle watched quietly, his eyes revealing his thoughts for his master and gratitude to Guo Mo.
