Three, Five, Fourth, Falling Rain Town 5
readx;? But as soon as he entered the house, Jun Li was disappointed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Murong's house still maintains the mess that was thoroughly rummaged through eighteen years ago, but this mess is also dusty. There wasn't even a footprint on the thick dust, and it obviously couldn't be the place where Tuoba Yu came out today.
He still searched carefully, and sure enough, there was not the slightest trace of either the book or the entrance to the secret passage.
He thought for a while, turned to Wu Tiantong and said, "Is Yu Rui's house around here?"
"Not far. Wu Tiantong said, "Is the eldest brother going to see it too?"
"Just show it to me, you don't have to go with me. Jun Li said.
Wu Tiantong pointed in one direction from the decaying window lattice, "That's it, the big one." ”
Jun Li nodded and waved his hand to signal that he could go first.
Wu Tiantong was no longer as afraid of Jun Li at this time as he was at the beginning, and when he saw this, he hesitated and said, "Big brother...... That's it for today...... Just to see ...... These old people's dwellings?"
"Passing by here, take a look. Jun Li said, "By the way, you won't do business with me and Ling Daxia tomorrow." ”
Of course, Wu Tiantong could only respond, so Jun Li went out by himself and headed in the direction of Yu Rui's house. After walking a few steps, he saw that Wu Tiantong was still following like this, he was a little strange, and turned around and said, "What else is going on?"
"The subordinates are brave...... I want to ask the eldest brother...... "Wu Tiantong said," "Is it possible......?" Can you still include me in the Black Bamboo Club?"
"You have a 'subordinate' and a 'big brother', when will you be a member of the Black Bamboo Society?" Jun Li asked rhetorically.
"But ......," Wu Tiantong was not without gloom, "it's just that I think so in my own heart." After Ling Li Gongzi went to Huaiyang, probably all the people in our branch removed his name in Heizhu's booklet. ”
"Does a name matter so much? It doesn't make a difference if there is one. Anyway, in the past ten years, you haven't done anything for Heizhu. ”
"If you are sent, you will never give up!" Wu Tiantong suddenly knelt down again, "Back then, I knew that I had no chance, so I didn't dare to go to Lingli Gongzi again, but now, ...... Since I can see my eldest brother here, I just hope that my eldest brother can ...... I can take in ...... again."
Jun Li shook his head, "The Black Bamboo Club is not a good place, if you are still alone, it will be fine, now that you have a wife and children, I am afraid it is no longer suitable." It's better not to dwell on them here, and call them back early, because if it drags on for a long time, they will go far. ”
Wu Tiantong was speechless for a long time before standing up silently.
> turned the street, Wu Tiantong had not followed.
Jun Li explored Yu Rui's former residence alone. The entrance to the secret passage was in Yu Rui's kitchen - because there were traces of Tuoba Yu coming today, it was easy to find it.
The entrance to the cave was less than half a man's height, and there was nothing nearby to cover it, and it seemed to have been so open for the past eighteen years, and no one had come to find it. The people of the Qinglong Sect who searched for the seal of King Kang back then probably guessed that such an important thing could not be placed in this hot and pickled cooking place, and second, the location of this cave was quite similar to a place where firewood was piled up, so they never looked deeper. Jun Li probed from the entrance, and sure enough, it was dark inside, and he couldn't see anything, and there were some cokes on the ground in the cave that had long since become slag, which must have really burned back then.
He took a few steps inside, and the charcoal was fragile and fell to ashes, but the soles of his feet were sloppy, as if he had stepped on something hard. He leaned over to touch it, and something rolled into his palm.
He picked it up and retreated out of the cave. It wasn't much brighter than the glimmer of light - he saw that the thing in his hand seemed to be a wrench, but it was not like the ordinary wrench, and the inner and outer walls were flat and smooth, especially the outer wall, and there were two crooked protrusions near the middle circle, showing some vicissitudes for no reason.
He blew the charred ash on his wrench, and smoothed his thumb, which was not too big or too small, but he still had some doubts in his heart, and he raised his hand for a while. Even if the wrench finger is cleaned, it is still so black, it should not be all because of the smoke and fire, it seems to be similar to the texture of black jade. Of course, the concave and convex marks on it are also intentionally carved, and the fineness is extremely subtle, so small things, such carving is not easy.
“...... Black...... Bamboo?" he muttered suddenly.
- not to mention the subtleties, if these two strange protrusions look like anything, they are indeed like the knots of old bamboo. This is the first time Jun Li has seen something that is really related to the name "Black Bamboo", but if this is something important, he didn't mention it when he taught himself that Black Bamboo would be all kinds of things, and he didn't know - what use can this thing have?
I can only take it back and ask again. He took off the wrench first and carried it carefully.
I went back to the secret passage, and when I looked closely, I found nothing else. After walking about thirty zhang deep, Jun Li could already be sure that what Tuoba Yu said was true. The darkness was thick, not within the reach of ordinary people's eyes, and later, he was only able to see the top of the cave on the two walls clearly, and he retreated first, thinking unconsciously in his heart, if she really let the thorn stab, she would not be able to come back alone. When she went to the Black Bamboo Club Gold Medal Wall with her last year, the darkness on the road made her pinch his hand and dare not let go, not to mention such a narrow place, if she fell into it alone, she would probably cry.
He shook his head to himself. What made him most helpless was to stab himself, but he didn't feel it yet. Her temperament, which always thinks that she can take care of others, probably can't be changed, and she doesn't think about it at all—although Tuoba Yu is quiet and weak, she is actually better than her in solitude and darkness.
On the way back, Junli passed through the center of the town. It was a decaying bamboo trellis, and what might have been a shady place for vine crops to climb in the shade was now invisible.
Because the hut where Ling Li took him to live was close to the entrance of the town, Jun Li had never walked through this town before, so he had never found that this place was really so cold, and it suddenly made people tremble. He looked up to the sky under the bamboo frames, through the partitions. The starlight was getting darker and darker, and the clouds were not dispersed, as if it would rain again at any moment.
He remembered the tragic incident in Wu Tiantong's mouth eighteen years ago. I don't know if it is the souls that have always covered this world that have refused to leave for many years?
"Supreme Taiyi Du Tianzun......" he thought unconsciously. The matter of chanting excessively seems to be far away from him. Far away - he thought he was a little ridiculous. He no longer knows how to distinguish between good and evil in this world. He was convinced that the Black Bamboo Society and the Blue Dragon Sect had paid the price, and the souls of the dead eighteen years ago were just a family.
Standing and reciting an entire scripture, the oppression in his heart lightened. The haze in the sky faded a little, and the little starlight in the distance became brighter. Only the sound of the wind still echoes, and the dark clouds gather and disperse, like souls hesitating whether to go to the dead.
He hurried back to the hut where he had settled, and the light in the room gave him a strange warmth. It was then that he had a definite feeling that this place seemed to be the place of life compared to the treacherous feeling of decay in the houses and alleys deep in the town. Maybe because there was no one living in this room when the massacre took place, so there was no life or death in this room, or maybe because there was some friendship between the Blue Dragon Sect and Ling Li, this house was saved from being destroyed too much.
"Did you find it?" Thorn greeted him first, apparently forgetting that he had been angry with him at first. Behind him, Tuoba Yu also followed.
"Found it. ”
"That'...... Then you send Xiaoyu back......" Thorn seemed to know that Jun Li would not allow himself to send Tuoba Yu, so he no longer struggled to mention it, and only said: "You have to take care of Xiaoyu on the way!"
Jun Li nodded. "I'll be back as soon as I can, but it will take two hours, so you can rest first. ”
"That...... I'll come back when I send it, be careful not to be seen by the people of the Blue Dragon Sect again!" Thorn didn't forget to remind, "I just told Xiaoyu, and she promised not to tell the sect leader and his wife anything." ”
Of course she couldn't tell her, or she would be in a hurry to go back and do something. Jun Li smiled and said to Tuoba Yu, "Let's go." ”
Tuoba Yu looked a little scared. Walking with a stranger, even though he may not be a bad person, seemed unthinkable to her. But as if she knew that there was no way, she still mustered up the courage and tried to transfer her trust in the thorn to this man.
After the first section of the > tunnel, it is very narrow, not to mention two people in parallel, even if one person passes through it is a little difficult, and it is more often necessary to bow and bend over, which is very labor-intensive. The road also changes with the terrain, sometimes up and down, sometimes the tentacles are on the side of the hard rocks, sometimes it is soft soil, if you are not careful, it is common to bump or sink.
Jun Li took the pearl first that night, and Tuoba Yu silently followed him, so that at least if the road changed, Jun Li would finally be reminded first. Before they knew it, they had been walking for three quarters of an hour, and both of them were gradually sweating - even if it was not the hot season, it was really hot and stuffy in such a narrow passage, and if the lighting was not used for the night pearl but with the light, I am afraid that it would be more and more difficult to breathe.
At this time, it stopped because there was a mountain rock blocking in front of it, which seemed to be too hard and difficult to chisel back then, so it could only be left. The passage was narrow and there was nowhere to go around, so you had to climb about two feet high to the top of the boulder and continue on your way. The two of them didn't have ropes, so it was easy for Jun Li to jump up like this, but Tuoba Yu couldn't do it anyway.
This was unexpected. When Tuoba Yu came, it was good to jump off the rock, the ground was soft, and he was not injured, but it was different when he went back. She has always been a literary show, but she has a little more martial arts than ordinary girls, and she used to climb the door and jump over from the side roof, but now the ground is soft, and it is difficult to borrow strength.
Seeing that she couldn't get up, Jun Li hesitated, so he had to jump down again, and said, "It's better for me to carry you up, it's the most convenient." "In this way, compared to reaching out from above and pulling Tuoba Yu upside down, or forcing her up from below, it is still a little less embarrassing. Even so, Tuoba Yu felt embarrassed enough. If she had never spoken to anyone outside the Blue Dragon Sect before today, then she had never been so close to anyone else before this time. Even within the Blue Dragon Sect, only people who were extremely close to her had to get close to her, let alone say anything about "going up with you".
Under the cold light of the night pearl, her already hot and red face became more and more crimson, and when she saw Jun Li coming down, she took two steps back in a panic. Jun Li seemed to be aware of it, and when he saw her appearance, he also guessed a little. He looked up helplessly. The two walls are narrow left and right, and the arms and feet can be stretched out to support the climbing, but if this girl climbs up like this, I am afraid it will be very ugly. His mind turned, and he said, "So be it." Then he took off the blood-chasing sword from his back, and raised his hand to the left and right walls—the sword was more than three feet long, just enough for the distance between the left and right, and even the sword with a sheath was like a step from the ground.
Jun Li leaned forward first, put his left foot on the sword body lightly, and then landed on the top of the stone. "So you can always come up, right?" he held up the Night Pearl and took a picture of her.
