I don't remember much about 10 days of recuperation, but I only remember that there was a heavy rain in Wuhan during this period, which not only brought a lot of precipitation, but also relieved the hot air a lot. And Matsuko didn't run around looking for news as before, but discussed some stories about "Lu" with us at home every day.

The information we have is limited, and most of it comes from ancient books, and there are more or less myths and exaggerations during the period. But how many people have actually seen this thing, I'm afraid very few. So we prepared for the best and prepared for the worst. Qin Bukong's mood has gradually recovered a lot through the adjustment of these days, and he has to continue to participate in our discussions about Lu, which can be regarded as a temporary diversion of attention, except for the occasional sigh from him at night, everything else is fine.

Ten days later, we were ready to go, and knowing that we were going to dig in the ground, we even put our shovels and shovels by the door early. Considering that this time I was dealing with the Great Corpse King, I also brought a lot of charms to restrain the dead corpses, but I never used them, and I don't know if they were useful or not. The tools for playing talismans are indispensable, and I also re-bladed the Miao Wu scimitar that Qin Bukong passed to me again, and sharpened all the previous gaps. Qin Bukong also knew that this time we were not just facing ghosts, but something that a corpse had become, simply put, its root was a person after all, but it was materialized by a demon. For this reason, he also deliberately memorized part of the content about manipulating corpses in the puppet drama he learned in his early years, and even in these ten days, he also taught me a few tricks and formulas to prevent corpse qi, and asked me to know how to use it immediately when I encountered danger, while inhaling too much corpse qi and turning back to become seriously ill.

It feels like I've already made up my mind that I'm still the main force in this level.

And I have never been able to convince Qin Bukong to let me keep the vajra, he said that he made a mistake once, and he will never make it again, and Qin Bukong will be easily defeated if he does not have a weapon by his side. Songzi is much simpler, bring the compass and the iron scissors I gave him, one is used to find the way, the other is used to simply defend ourselves, and the rest, as long as the brain is not pretended to be stupid, it is the greatest help to us.

On the day of departure, we rushed to the riverside with familiarity, and this way came to the road where we were full of ghosts and ghosts without saying a word, even after many days, when I walked on this road again, I still couldn't help but feel palpitations, but fortunately, everything was normal, and we arrived at the riverside smoothly.

From the river to the small dirt slope, in fact, there is no road, but the slope is not very steep, after climbing up the slope is a very open and relatively flat open space, the ruler is about the size of a sports field, maybe in the past are from a distance, in the majestic Yangtze River Bridge against the background, this place does not seem to be much, but until after standing up, we found that it is far larger than we imagined.

This place is rarely visited, and the nearest house is a mile away, and we cannot be directly observed. The only place where we could see us was the people on the bridge, but it was so far away that even if they did see us, they would think it was a few teenagers flying kites. However, for the sake of safety, before we start the official search, we will first use the analysis of pine nuts to rule out a few completely impossible places, such as the edge of the soil slope, which is obviously not a place where tall buildings will be built. Finally, the place was locked at the center point of the soil slope slightly closer to the direction of the Yangtze River.

Since I have not been to the Yellow Crane Tower, I have only seen it from afar on the boat when I took a few boats to Wuchang. So according to my eyesight, the range is actually quite small, but since we need to find the pedestal first, it should only be in the central area. Qin Bukong sprinkled a layer of black-gray soil around the central position, I don't know what it was, but he told me that it was used to "draw a circle to occupy the land", which means that the territory in the circle is occupied by us, and nothing else can stay here. Obviously, such a trick will not work for something like Lu.

We arrived quite early, and after we had done our preparations, it wasn't actually noon. According to the previous inference, noon is the time of the day when the yang energy is the strongest, and correspondingly the hottest time, so if it is accompanied by drought, it should like such a hot time. At first, I thought it was Songzi's speculation on the location, but at about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Bukong went down with a hoe, and soon dug some stone pedestals, and in the gaps in the stones, there were also wood used to fill them to keep them stable. Soon we followed this trace to clear out a large octagonal pedestal, and the only octagonal building here was the Yellow Crane Tower, so we concluded that there was nothing wrong with this place, which was the former site of the Yellow Crane Tower.

This is very strange, according to common sense, we should have noticed the existence of the lu as soon as we dug up the old site, but we waited until it was close to dusk, and still did not notice any movement. Seeing that it was getting late, Songzi proposed that we should go back today and continue tomorrow, if there was no movement until noon tomorrow, we would dig the foundation, and save a fight. But Qin Bukong seemed to be closing his eyes all the time, and suddenly said at this time, no, let's not go back tonight, just stay here.

I asked him, are you crazy, you are still as warm at night as the day by the river, you don't look at what kind of clothes we are wearing, the river breeze at night is big, and it will blow you into a stupid dog. Qin Bukong didn't fight back at my provocative words, maybe he had already seen me through and knew that I was just stubborn, maybe it was because he had been mixed with me and Songzi these days, and his heart slowly became a little more open-minded, at least not as good as the small belly chicken intestines when I first met him. He ignored me, but turned his head and asked Songzi and said, "In addition to the drought, heat and ferocity, is this thing still afraid of water and light?"

When he said this, Songzi immediately slapped his thigh and stood up and said yes again and again, probably because of the daytime, it didn't dare to come out. Qin Bukong said, then let's wait here tonight to see if it will come out at night, if it still doesn't come out, we will dig it during the day tomorrow. I thought to myself, what kind of logic is this, since I know that the other party will not appear during the day, so why don't we dig directly during the day? Why take any risks? If it refuses to show up during the day, then when we dig up the box, it should always appear, so why bother?

I raised my question, and Songzi also agreed with my statement, now we are all in a state of exhaustion, if we fight hard, I am afraid that even if we win in the end, we will suffer a big loss. But Qin Bukong said, then you go back, I'll wait here tonight.

This sentence made Matsuko and I froze for a moment, and he sounded like he was angry, and he had already made up his mind to do so. I saw that he was so stubborn, so I was a little angry again, and I was about to open my mouth to argue with him, but Matsuko secretly pulled my clothes behind my back, I turned my head to look at him, he frowned, and shook his head slightly. Only then did I understand that Qin Bukong insisted on doing this, and made a lot of preparations when he was at home, and even refused to hand over the vajra to me, probably because of Ganmu. He always thought in his heart that Ganmu died because of him, but this revenge was avenged by me, and he failed to avenge Ganmu with his own hands, so he grafted this hatred onto the body of "Lu".

In this way, I think Qin Bukong is planning to make a desperate bet, and he has to fight, and this time, it is very likely that he will not let me complete the final blow again, but will personally eliminate the difficulties that stand in front of us. The premise is that we really have the ability.

Frankly speaking, I still appreciate Qin Bukong's affection and righteousness at the moment, but I can't help but ignore everyone's safety. But Qin Bukong is already a handful of old people, and he may not have met a few people who can know him in his life, so even people like me and Songzi who have been talking to him for three days and two times, he will think that we are companions. He was lonely, so lonely that he would not allow anyone else to take everything that belonged to him, and whoever did that was his enemy.

When I think of this, I suddenly have a temperament as well. So I said, "In that case, I'll go buy some food now, and see if I can get some thick clothes from somewhere, and after you've eaten, you can take a nap first, and I'll keep vigil with Matsuko."

Songzi didn't speak, because even if he thought that Qin Bukong was too willful, he could only come at the moment, because this was probably a knot in his heart, and only by untying it could he continue to face the following days. Seeing that there was no objection, I scraped together all the money and tickets for the three of us, and then I walked back in the direction of the street by myself.

The food was brought over, and it was probably cold. Born outside, the children of the rivers and lakes do not have to pay attention to eating and drinking. So I bought a bun of steamed buns and some pickles, and I didn't even buy water, because the place where we were going to stay at night was the Yangtze River. And when I was going back to the riverside, I took a few clothes that others had dried outside on the way to keep warm at night. I must emphasize that it was just a loan, and when we get through it, I will definitely pay it back.

If we can get through, of course.
