Chapter 201 [Are You Afraid] (I)
Song Changjin said forcefully: "I'm not afraid of shadows." As he spoke, he involuntarily glanced at the ground, and found that his shadow was obviously oblique, not a ghost, because a morning had passed unconsciously in the search, and he took a breath and said, "Let's rest for a while, we have all been turning all morning, and our feet are all soaked." This was said to Wu Jie, because he saw that Tan Tiande was more persistent than anyone else.
Wu Jie didn't turn a deaf ear to his words this time, and stood in the shadow of a tomb, still not drinking water. Song Changjin also walked into the shadows, Wu Jie's complexion became more and more pale under such conditions, Song Changjin handed the kettle to Wu Jie with some flattery, and just raised his hand, Wu Jie had already noticed his actions, and said indifferently: "No!"
Song Changjin once again described Wu Jie as unfathomable, although this person can't see, he can't hide anything from him. Now that he had picked up the kettle, he was happy to be a good person, and handed it to Tan Tiande instead.
Tan Tiande is very old, he has lived a pampered life all these years, if it weren't for his son, he wouldn't have paid such hardship, and it was impossible to support it until now, took the kettle handed by Song Changjin, and poured it down.
Song Changjin couldn't help but remind him to drink slowly, drinking a lot of water in a hungry and thirsty situation may also cause physical discomfort.
Tan Tiande put down the kettle, wiped the corners of his lips, returned the kettle to Song Changjin, and said hoarsely: "Thank you!"
Song Changjin said: "You're welcome, I and Shopkeeper Tan are also old acquaintances." ”
Tan Tiande nodded, he did know Song Changjin for a long time, Song Changjin's tobacco wants to be unimpeded in this area, not only needs the approval of the warlord of Yan Tuojiang, but also needs his own consent, Tan Tiande doesn't smoke a lot, but he can't control his subordinates, Song Changjin has made a lot of money from his subordinates over the years.
Song Changjin said: "Shopkeeper Tan has really been to the Heavenly Temple?"
Tan Tiande said with a blank expression: "I just strayed into a dilapidated ruin, and I met a group of ancient knights at that time, they killed anyone they met, and they were not afraid ......of swords and guns" He closed his eyes and tried to recall the details of the beginning, he would not be mistaken, it should be in this place, but why can't he find that ruin?
Song Changjin said: "Could it be a dream?"
Tan Tiande Huo Ran opened his eyes, and the two eyes like blades made Song Changjin's heart tremble, he didn't expect that this bandit leader who had lost his position still had such an aggressive gaze, and this gaze also made Song Changjin re-examine Tan Tiande's strength, the tiger is old and majestic, for his precious son, Tan Tiande is already fearless.
Song Changjin desperately squeezed out a smile and said, "Just kidding, hehe......"
Tan Tiande said: "The people who joked with me are already dead. ”
Song Changjin was embarrassed and couldn't continue.
Wu Jie said, "It's better to be alive." ”
Arnold had wet the towel on his head, but now it was completely dried, he felt the sun scorching his head through the towel through his yellow hair, and his whole brain seemed to be boiling, and he couldn't help but complain: "It's too hot, Lao Zhang, have you found anything?"
Zhang Changgong shook his head, he was accustomed to the reckless forests of Pale Mountain, of course he didn't like the bare Gobi, he still remembered the purpose of this visit: "I hope to end the matter here as soon as possible, Grandma Chen is still waiting for Mr. Wu to go back for treatment." ”
Tiewa said: "Uncle Golden Retriever, why don't you continue to tell me the story of vampires and zombies." After meeting Tan Zicong, on the way, Arnold told him some European medieval legends, vampires, werewolves, zombies and other stories, and Tiewa was addicted to listening to them.
Arnold pulled the towel off his head, fanned it twice and said, "No need to talk about it, I guess we'll see it right away." ”
Zhang Changgong snorted and said: "You don't scare children, you said that those things are monsters on your side, and we don't have them in the land of China." ”
Arnold laughed and said, "What do you have here?" Sun Monkey, Zhu Bajie?" He became more and more familiar with Chinese culture.
Tiewa listened interestingly, and said with burning eyes: "If you can't see vampires and zombies, it's okay to meet Sun Wukong Zhu Bajie, even if you meet a monster." After all, it is the nature of a child, and instead of feeling afraid, he feels very new about everything around him.
Zhang Changgong said: "If you encounter a beautiful snake, what should you do with the fox spirit?"
Arnold said: "I, I'll go, of course this kind of thing can't let children go." ”
Tiewa smiled: "Uncle Golden Retriever is very much like Zhu Bajie." ”
I saw three figures in front of me, but it was Luo Lie's group, and they didn't find anything in a circle, six people gathered in one place, they all shook their heads, and came to the shadows to rest together, Luo Lie looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and there were about six hours before it got dark.
Arnold said: "Do you think Tan Tiande will lie to us?"
Lu Weilin shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, his son's life is in danger, how dare he take risks." ”
Everyone agreed, and Luo Lie turned to Yan Tianxin and said, "Shopkeeper Yan, do you have any information about the Heavenly Temple?"
Yan Tianxin knew that Luo Lie was asking if the specific location of the Heavenly Temple was marked in the parchment scroll, she had actually searched countless times in her memory, and the location of the Heavenly Temple was not clearly marked in the parchment scroll, but only gave a general range, combined with some information that Zhuo Yishou had revealed, the Heavenly Temple should be a place of worship, and it was most likely to be located in the Western Xia Emperor's Mausoleum, Yan Tianxin said truthfully: "I don't know more than you." ”
Zhang Changgong said: "Tan Tiande should not be wrong in one bite. ”
Arnold said: "That's not necessarily, he is not in a normal mind because of his son's affairs, maybe he is insane?"
Lu Weilin said: "Hearing is false and seeing is believing, since he saw it with his own eyes, there should be no mistake." ”
Yan Tianxin's heart moved because of Lu Weilin's words, and she said softly: "What you see with your own eyes may not be true, such as a mirage!"
Several people turned their eyes to Yan Tianxin at the same time, everyone had heard of the phenomenon of mirage, and that kind of situation often happened in this place, it could not be ruled out that the Heavenly Temple that Tan Tiande saw back then was the illusion of a mirage.
Zhang Changgong said: "If it's really a mirage, I'm afraid we'll be in vain." ”
Luo Lie said: "Even if it is a mirage, Tan Tiande is very sure about the encounter with the Heavenly Temple knights back then, and we have also witnessed those Western Xia knights wearing iron armor. ”
Arnold said: "We have also seen ancient warriors in Pale Mountain, but in fact, no one is pretending to be there?"
Luo Lie thought for a while and said in a low voice: "What I'm most worried about now is that Zhuo Yishou didn't come here, we have searched almost most of the areas here, and we haven't found any clues at all, as long as someone comes, there will be traces." ”
Zhang Changgong nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure no one has been here for a long time. "He has an absolute say in this regard, and before meeting Luo Lie, Zhang Changgong was an extremely good hunter.
Arnold said: "I'll just say, Old Man Tan is so old, his head is not clear, coupled with the stimulation of his son's affairs, the whole person is crazy, let him lead the team will definitely go astray." ”
Yan Tianxin said: "Not really, he is not confused, and he will not risk his son's life." ”
Tiewa suddenly pointed forward and said, "Look!"
A few people looked up, only to see a dazzling light flickering on the left front of the imperial mausoleum, Luo Lie almost immediately judged that the light was because the sunlight hit a certain part of the imperial mausoleum to produce reflection, and the reflective part should be extremely smooth, so that the effect of mirror reflection will occur.
Tiewa took the initiative to ask: "I'll climb up and take a look." ”
Luo Lie said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, wait and talk." ”
Arnold said: "There must be something strange there. Before he could finish his words, a second reflection appeared above the imperial tomb.
Zhang Changgong believes that this situation is not uncommon, and even ordinary mountains can see reflections, maybe the sun happens to shine on a metal component that makes up the imperial tomb, or on the smooth stone, maybe it is agate jade, who knows.
Luo Lie focused on the reflective place, as the sun moved westward, three flickering luminous points could already be seen in their angle, after the sun hit the imperial tomb on the southeast side, the three reflective points projected the light to the opposite side, it was precisely on the dark side of the tomb where they were, what surprised them was that the dark part of the tomb also produced reflection, which ruled out the possibility that Zhang Longbow thought it was a coincidence.
They can't catch the trail of light in a sunny sky, but they can find its foothold in the shadows.
The reflection was reflected several times, and finally disappeared in front of an inconspicuous tomb, saying that it was a tomb but only a rammed earth pedestal remained, the wind and sand had already eroded most of the ground, it is conceivable that before this tomb did not disappear, the light on the tomb will inevitably continue to return to other places, just because of the disappearance of this tomb, the clue is completely interrupted.
The six of them stopped in front of the pedestal of the tomb, and Arnold was a little frustrated: "The clue that was finally found was interrupted. ”
Luo Lie was optimistic about everything, and said with a smile: "At least we are one step closer to the goal, let's take a look around." ”
"They're coming!" It was still Tiewa who found out, and he began to think that it was Wu Jie and the three of them coming, but when he looked closely, the three figures were extremely far away, and at the place where heaven and earth met, three vague figures walked towards them.
Luo Lie and the others also saw the three figures, and they all felt strange, no one expected that Wu Jie and the three of them would go so far, and they had already left the center of the mausoleum area.
Yan Tianxin frowned slightly, she immediately realized that something was wrong, Wu Jie and the others would not have been able to go that far, but if it wasn't for Wu Jie and the others, who would it be?
