Chapter 33: The Giant Buddha in the Valley
After Kaka made the call, he said to us, "A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" ”
I said, "Let's hear the bad news first." ”
Kaka said: "The bad news is that those people entered the nearby Lishan and suddenly disappeared, leaving no trace and no whereabouts of Wu Qingqing. ”
I was surprised in my heart: "Why can't even Dagang find them?" ”
Kaka nodded and said, "That's right! I think they should know they're being watched, so they've somehow hidden it so we can't find it. ”
"And what about the good news?"
Kaka smiled and said, "The good news is that this time my eldest cousin will personally lead the team, and I have also brought a few masters, ready to wipe out these people." ”
Although Kaka said this easily, Roy didn't have much hope, but just sighed and said, "Alas! I can't find them, so why do you catch them all? ”
Kaka said: "You can't say that, you have what they want, and they will naturally come to you for a deal." When the time comes, there will definitely be flaws. Moreover, Alexandra is so big, they definitely can't run far. As soon as the masters brought by my cousin arrived, I used all kinds of means to not be afraid that I would not find them. ”
Although Roy frowned, there was no better way, so he sighed deeply and looked at the map on the table in a daze.
I don't know much about this mountain, only that it belongs to the remnants of Mount Tai. At that time, Shun once plowed the mountains and was famous for it. There are a thousand Buddha temples on the mountain, and there are many Buddha statues. Usually there are many tourists, they want to hide, where can they hide?
The trading time written on the message is tomorrow night, but the specific time and place are not clearly written. It seems that the people are in a hurry, and they don't dare to linger too long. This proves that these people are now acting very cautiously.
Now that we still have time to prepare, Roy no longer hides his secrets, and takes out all the good things he pressed at the bottom of the box. He took out an ancient iron box from the bottom of the cabinet and placed it on the table.
The iron box was dark and heavy. It is one and a half meters long, half a meter wide, and about 30 centimeters wide. It has a delicate relief on it, in the style of a vicious wolf's head. The corners of the box were clad in brass, and they were carved with a quaint magic circle. There is a complex combination lock on the handle, and the whole box gives people a sense of desolation, simplicity and mystery.
I really don't know how he brought such a big box to China.
Roy's face was solemn, and he quickly flicked the combination lock, only to hear the sound of mechanical movement "click", and the lid of the box popped open.
Roy opened the lid, and Kaka and I immediately leaned in to see what was unfolding in front of our eyes, making us let out an amazement. This iron box is simply a small arsenal!
The first thing that caught my eye was a very beautiful long sword, with a gorgeous shape, more than a meter long, and shining with silver light. The calyx is cross-shaped with the blade, and the blade is only two fingers wide. There were also two short swords that were almost the same as their style, only about forty centimeters long, and they were extremely sharp. In addition, there are hatchets, small crossbows, crossbows, and a strangely shaped revolver filled with silver bullets.
Roy seemed uncomfortable with the weapons, especially the silver sword and silver bullets.
There was another layer underneath the chest, and when you opened it, there was a dense collection of bottles and jars, all of which contained potions of dubious effect. As soon as it was revealed, there was an indescribably strange smell of potions.
Roy picked and chose inside, took out two small glass bottles, handed them to Kaka and Kaka, and said, "This is the 'Kabbalah Holy Water', a potion made from the fruit of the Tree of Life. Even if a dying person drinks it, it can be brought back to life. This potion is extremely rare, and no one can refine it anymore. Keep it for now, and maybe you'll be able to use it. ”
Such a precious thing, Roy said to give it to us, it was really generous, but it made me and Kaka feel a little embarrassed. Roy said, "Lu, Kaka, no matter how precious these things are, they can be regained." But life is only once, if you lose it, you can't get it back, you are all smart people, you should know what is the most cherished. ”
Roy said so, then we twisted and pinched, it seems that we are petty. You're welcome at the moment, put it in your pocket.
Roy took out a relatively large glass bottle again, shook the clear liquid inside, and smiled: "This is holy water from the St. Petersburg Cathedral of the Vatican, and it is perfect for dealing with vampires!" I'm going to make Randolph pay a heavy price! ”
After taking the potion, Roy pointed to the beautiful sword and said to me, "Lu, please take this sword, this is a medieval Templar sword, and the best-preserved Templar sword I have ever gathered." Moderately weight, perfect for you. This sword is plated with a layer of silver that can kill vampires. ”
I was very pleasantly surprised to lift the sword, and checked it, it was not very heavy, and I danced twice, very handy, and I really loved it at the moment. I have been learning eighteen martial arts from my master since I was very young, and although weapons are not my strong point, I will not be too bad if I have a foundation there.
Roy looked at Kaka and said, "I don't know what weapon you're good at?" ”
Kaka shook his head and said, "This palace usually doesn't like to use weapons, and it rarely fights with people, it's all rough work." He didn't forget to glance at me. I'm too happy to reason with her.
Roy said: "But this time is different, the other party is too powerful, we must prepare some self-defense weapons." ”
Kaka sighed, nodded, and said, "Forget it, I'll use this crossbow." ”
Kaka picked up the crossbow and tried to wind it. But to her surprise, although this crossbow was small, it was a hard crossbow. It took Kaka a long time to pull the string. I had to pouting and throw it down, picked up the two short swords and made two strokes, which was considered satisfied.
Roy smiled and took out the crossbow and bolt, trying to pick up the oddly shaped revolver, but after thinking about it, he gave up. He closed the lid, unsuffled the combination lock, breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and said, "I really want to know where they are hiding now, and I want to make a big deal with them." ”
It's easier said than done to find a hiding place for these people. Even if we can't find them, where can we find them? So he fiddled with the weapon in his hand, and Roy talked about the characteristics of the battle between the necromancer and the vampire baron, and then went back to rest.
Early the next morning, Roy called me and asked me to get up and go out with him. There has been no news from Dagang's side, Roy can't sit still, he is going to Lishan to step on the point. Kaka and I naturally didn't worry about him going alone, so we had to go with him. Just in case, Middle-earth encounters an enemy, and we all set out in good clothes.
The Templar sword was only a meter long, but it was still too long for me to fit in my backpack, so I had to wrap it in a cloth and insert it in my backpack. He also brought the copper wooden fish with him, and put the Beiluo Shimen in his backpack, and then he went on the road.
Alexandra is not too far from our school, just take a taxi and get there in more than half an hour. Because the weather has been very good recently, there are many people all the way upstream, so it is not lively. For Wang Grilled Fish, Li Mantou and the like, they will definitely not hide here, they must find a secret place to hide. So we avoided the crowd and walked towards a less crowded area.
Along the way, I released my aura to the maximum, and Kaka also frequently used the technique of looking at qi. From time to time, Roy took out a quaint pocket watch and opened it for a look. I accidentally glanced at it, and found that there was no time scale on it, but rather a compass, except that there was only one pointer, which oscillated from time to time.
Seeing my curiosity, Roy said, "The pointer on this pocket watch is for finding dark creatures. If there is a vampire or other monster nearby, the pointer will point it out. ”
"Can you find out where they are?"
Roy shook his head and said, "They must have used some secret method that I don't know about, covering up the breath, and I can't feel it at all." ”
Kaka snorted and said, "In my Great Heavenly Empire, there are countless spells to hide your aura, and they are not something that you Westerners can understand. ”
The tone in which he said this seemed quite complacent.
Alexandra doesn't look big on the map, but the trail is difficult and we are walking on sparsely populated trails, so it was quite difficult to walk all the way. Until noon, the trio stopped to have a bite to eat. I took out my phone and looked at it, but I didn't know where I went, and there was no signal at all.
After eating his stomach and resting for a while, Roy looked for a direction and continued to search. Although we all know in our hearts that in this big mountain, with just the three of us, trying to find them is tantamount to looking for a needle in the sea. But looking at Roy's anxious face, he really couldn't bear to hit him. I had to bite the bullet and look for it.
After about two or three hours of doing this, I was so tired that my back and legs hurt. I was about to rest for a while, when I suddenly saw Beiluo Shimen suddenly jump out, meow a few times, and run forward with his legs.
I was shocked, Beiluo Shimen must have discovered something! So without saying a word, beckoned the two of them to hurry up.
Beiluo Shimen broke away from the path and drove headlong into the dense forest. It was very difficult to walk under the thorns in all directions. I had no choice but to draw my sword to clear the way. Beiluo Shimen was unhurried, always leading the way in front, stopping and shouting a few times from time to time, as if urging us to go quickly.
We had to use our hands and feet together to climb a mountain. Beiluo Shimen stood on a rock, his blue eyes staring closely ahead. We followed its gaze and were amazed by what we saw.
In front of us, a ravine suddenly appeared. At the end of the canyon, there is a giant Buddha statue that is grounded in the sky. The statue seems to be old, eroded by wind and rain, and covered with a lot of green vegetation, with only the head and part of the body exposed. At first glance, it looks like a green robe.
The giant Buddha is carved by the mountain, and it is forty or fifty meters high. With his eyebrows lowered, he faced the entire canyon. I don't know why there is such a giant Buddha in such a remote place? I looked at it carefully, and suddenly my heart was shocked, and I only felt that this giant Buddha seemed to have seen it somewhere......
