In order to ensure the smooth operation, Meng 18 personally drew a map of the Nine Links.

She had groped along the waterfall for a while, but found nothing but to withdraw.

"Ye Tian, we have three chapters of the law, you must obey the command, anytime I say go, I will leave, and I will withdraw when I say so. As for your partner Milan, whether she can survive or not depends on her fate. ”

After ten days of repairing and running-in, we set off with the mercenaries, and followed the same road as last time to the upper reaches of the waterfall, and I led the team in front, and soon felt into the darkness.

In the past, I never believed that I would lose my way in the dark, but this time, when I came to a fork in the road, there was a real confusion event.

I remember the last time I never passed here, and I walked all the way to the dark and entered the cave.

After a simple verification, we chose the right front.

I sensed that the situation on both sides of the road was very unfamiliar, and it was very likely that I would go wrong.

But now that Meng Shibai is the commander-in-chief of the operation, I can only follow her.

Unexpectedly, we stumbled into the hall where many people knelt down and worshipped.

The coffin was still flat on the table, and I pointed to it in surprise: "This is it!" The strange man I saw was inside......"

The situation was different from what I had imagined, the coffin was empty, but a thick layer of dust had fallen.

This strange sight does not match what I said at all.

Also, when we saw the four-story three-dimensional cave, there was no one inside.

"Ye Tian, I believe that you have been here and seen the terrain structure here, but you have rationalized it in the chaos. It's not about your morals, it's about the fact that you were under the influence of the cave gas and had a huge hallucination......"

The mercenaries all believed Meng Eighteen's words, they had a lot of combat experience, and they could recognize that this was the only explanation.

We moved on and found the place where I found Milan, which, coincidentally, was empty and dusty......

If it was said that people were once locked up, I'm afraid no one believed it.

I was speechless, because the scene here matches what I said, but there is no trace of human existence, which is completely wrong.

It was in vain for us to find this position, but not Milan.

Fortunately, I still have one last killer move, which is to take them to that cave and see Qingyun Town through the rotating bluestone slab door.

I led the way, trotting all the way into the cave where the woman had appeared.

Something even more terrible happened in an instant, and I couldn't find the slate.

Behind this cave is a solid bluestone, and there is no echo of any hollow, which proves that there is no secret passage, let alone a secret door......

I quickly ran through all the caves, but unfortunately, none of them had a back door, so there was only room for one person to rest inside.

I couldn't explain this phenomenon, Meng XVIII and all the mercenaries stood opposite, staring at me silently.

When I left, the caves had back doors, and when I went out from there, it was Longtou Street in Qingyun Town, and it was impossible for them to disappear suddenly, there must be something hidden in this matter.

The way they stared at me embarrassed me, like a group of doctors staring at a madman, whatever the madman explained, it was all nonsense and made up.

I ran quickly through each cave, knocking on the wall with a stone, but there was no echo of any hollowness, all of them were solid roots.

Here, not to mention a door, it takes a lot of effort to dig up even a small stone.

I can only say that my hallucinations came at the wrong time, and it was all in vain to deceive these people.

"Ye Tian, don't lie, after you enter the mountain, no matter what happens, you don't know, because your mind is confused, what you see in your eyes and hear in your ears is an illusion. Let's go back, Milan is not here, it has gone elsewhere. ”

As I shouted loudly, the mercenaries swarmed up and grabbed my arm......

Meng Shibai stood in front of me, his eyes becoming extremely pitiful.

I even suspect that there are no Milans and mercenaries at all, they have not been here, there is no one in the stockade outside, everything is fake, and this is the most terrible thing.

Meng Eighteen didn't believe anything I said, everything she had been told before was a lie.

I couldn't figure it out, all the scenes matched, except for the missing door.

However, since we are here, we should track it down and search this place all over the place.

As I said, Meng Shibai did run around the cave with a few mercenaries and took pictures with his mobile phone.

As it turned out, the cave was empty.

When we walked out, Meng Shibai sighed: "I have been cautious in Miaojiang for so many years, and this time I was deceived by you." It seems that you can't get the money, what are you telling such a big lie to show? ”

I was completely devastated, and my mind was clouded with nightmares, and I didn't know how to describe what had happened to me.

But the only thing I am aware of is that Milan did disappear into the mountains, and his life and death are still unknown.

If I tell the Eight Wise Kings, it will be a grave dereliction of duty, and I will not have the face to go back to see him.

We walked out of the cave and back to the waterfall.

Meng Shibai pointed to the clear river water: "Ye Tian, even if it is this kind of water flow, it looks harmless to humans and animals on the surface, we don't dare to drink it, we can't even wash our hands and feet, who knows how many poisonous insects are entrenched in the upper reaches of the river?" You are so bold and so ignorant that you actually drink the water inside! Now it seems that you are not drinking the so-called stream water of Qingyun Town, but the groundwater in the mountains, which is even more terrifying, every drop of water here contains toxins......"

I could only smile wryly, she didn't believe my words, but instead instilled some plausible knowledge in me.

With my talents, of course, I can distinguish between reality and illusion, and if I am really poisoned, I will react and cannot sit still.

We returned to the depths of the Nine Rings and saw the cottage again, and the situation was especially bad, there was no trace of the battle at all, and it was impossible for anyone to repair the broken wooden building.

When Meng 18 repeated the plot of the armored car, all the mercenaries laughed: "What age is it, how can there be such a thing?" If it's a diesel drive, where do the people hiding here go to get diesel? ”

I'm dismissive of these questions, because if the inside of the mountain is a huge bomb shelter, of course there is everything in it.

I only told Meng Shiba: "If you doubt the existence of Milan, then you can call and ask Ma Guifei for verification." I can also give you another number, which is the famous Eight Sages King in the capital. If they say that Milan has come to Lingnan, then this matter cannot be faked. ”

This is the best way for me to prove my innocence, but Meng Shibai refused: "Ye Tian, don't waste your energy, we all know that you have hallucinations." Rest assured, this will not affect your reputation in the rivers and lakes, and we will not spread it, and you are not the only one who is poisoned all year round. ”

One of the mercenaries interjected: "It is true that someone has eaten poisonous mushrooms by mistake, and there are dancing villains in front of me, hundreds, thousands, unbelievable." There are also some outsiders who come here to look for poisonous mushrooms in order to pursue excitement...... Young man, hurry back, this place in Lingnan is not for you. ”

We returned to Mong, and I locked myself in my room and pondered for a long time.

I've never been like this before, and I swear everything I saw was true, including the woman I grabbed with a knife.

I can even vividly recall the names of the jade and medicinal herbs in the shop now.

If they were on the other side of the cave, why didn't they have the name of Qingyun Town on the map?

One last straw I had was to drive around the foot of the mountain and into the mountains in search of the town that didn't exist.

I pondered for a day and a night, wrote down all the clues related to Qingyun Town, and then opened the door to find Meng Shiba.

I was greeted not only by Meng 18, but also by three local witch doctors with big shoulders and round waists.

When they saw me, they immediately threw the wormwood they had lit in their hands at me, and then they surrounded me, and said something in their mouths—

I shouted, "Meng XVIII, let's drive around the mountains and go to that place, and I believe that as long as we carry out a carpet search, we will be able to find there." I have to bring Milan back and can't leave her to fend for herself here. ”

At the moment, I don't have any extravagant hopes for the Twelve Heavenly Officials, and my only thought is to find Milan and the two of them leave together.

The three witch doctors approached and grabbed me by the shoulders and the top of my head, as if to tear me apart.

Their faces were painted with colorful oil paint, and their mouths kept chewing, giving off a pungent smell of medicine.

"Ye Tian, don't struggle, everything they do is for your own good, you are evil, so many strange thoughts will appear. Now treat them well, and when you wake up, you will be the same as before......"

I struggled again, not wanting to pay attention to the witch doctors.

Only I know that there is no evil, but a terrible deception.

And the reasons why these people deceived me are deeply hidden and simply unimaginable.

"Meng Eighteen, let these people get out, they don't understand what I'm looking for at all? That cave is real, and those people are also in the mountain, if they are the people of the Twelve Heavenly Officials, there must be a great conspiracy-"

Suddenly, the three witch doctors let out a loud cry and sprayed the rotten herbs they chewed in their mouths on me—

I smelled a pungent fishy smell that only those snake repellent elixirs would have.

Now that I understand, they thought I was bewitched by the Lingnan Snake King and that something was wrong with my soul.

Sure enough, one of them had a word: "The outsiders have offended the snake king, please forgive me!" When he is well, he must bring live chickens and live pigs and go to thank the snake king. Now send his soul back and let him recover quickly...... For the sake of our face, spare him......"

I was angry and angry, but I couldn't get into it, and the more I talked, the more they thought I was crazy.

Meng Shibai stood ten steps away, his eyes full of sadness: "Ye Tian, you must have been to this place, when you were in a coma and talking nonsense, you repeatedly said that you wanted to avenge your parents, they died too miserably, you can rest assured by killing all the enemies, and then you will return to the rivers and lakes...... You didn't come here to be sent by the Eight Sages King and Ma Guifei, but for your own blood feud, right? ”

For me, Lingnan is a sad place, my parents did die tragically in Lingnan, but this has nothing to do with my nonsense, and it is not nonsense.

"Meng Eighteen, these are not what you need to understand. Now let go of me, find a car, let's go around the mountain, go to Qingyun Town, go to Longtou Street, and find those disappeared shops and tourists! ”
