Chapter 768
Li Qiufeng, Situ Qiao, and Eldest Sun Guangming looked at each other, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while. Su Yan looked depressed, sighed, looked up at the gray sky, and said, "Since the fog, we can't tell the difference between east and west, north and south. If you can discern the direction, it won't be like a ghost hitting a wall, and you won't be circling around here like a headless fly. ”
When Li Qiufeng heard Su Yan say this, his heart moved, and he said, "If the clever method doesn't work, then we might as well use the stupidest method." ”
Situ Qiao and the others were puzzled, looking at Li Qiufeng in a daze, and didn't know how to ask. Li Qiufeng said: "We are going in circles here, naturally when we are moving forward, this road has changed direction unconsciously. According to Li's opinion, the reason why we didn't find that the direction of the road had changed, because the surrounding situation was too similar, and it was easy to have an illusion if we kept walking, and we didn't know it as the road changed direction. If we can follow a straight line under our feet, we will not be deceived by the situation around us. I thought of a stupid way to draw a straight line on the road as I walked. In this way, if there is a change in the direction of the road, we will naturally notice it immediately......"
Before Li Qiufeng finished speaking, Situ Qiao and the others had already suddenly realized that they were ready to shout. Li Qiufeng pulled out the police knife, and the eldest grandson Guangming pulled out the long sword, and he was about to draw a line on the road while walking. Su Yan handed the Zen staff in his hand to the monk Xuanji, and said: "This Zen staff was the artifact of Master Xuanzang back then, and it is most appropriate to give it to Master Xuanji for safekeeping." ”
Li Qiufeng was stunned, and faintly felt as if something was wrong. He stood there for a moment, and when he saw that the monk Xuanji respectfully took the Zen staff, he immediately said, "Miss Su, have you always carried this Zen staff with you?"
Su Yan didn't know why Li Qiufeng asked this question, and he was strange, but he still nodded and said, "Yes." Since this Zen staff was dug up by Mr. Situ, we brought it here. ”
Li Qiufeng secretly thought in his heart that before encountering the fog, he and his eldest grandson Guangming and Su Yan followed Situ Bridge in the Chitou Temple, and saw him dig out the Zen staff and robes that the eldest grandson Guangming and Su Yan had hidden in the ancient battlefield. Later, strange things kept happening, and the Zen staff and robe finally fell into the hands of the eldest grandson Guangming and Su Yan. It's just that after arriving at Taibaiju, things became more and more weird, and finally everyone fell into the ghost town, and Li Qiufeng didn't remember where the Zen staff went. However, although his memory was vague, he couldn't remember when Su Yan had held this Zen staff in his hand. Why did Su Yan take out this Zen staff at this time, as if he was doing a trick?
Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, but Situ Qiao and the others had continued to walk forward. I saw the eldest grandson Guangming dragging the long sword to the ground as he walked, drawing a straight line. Situ Qiao stayed by the side of the eldest grandson Guangming, and kept reminding the eldest grandson Guangming that the two worked together to make the line on the ground very straight.
The monk Xuanji pointed the end of the Zen staff on the ground, like the eldest grandson Guangming, and drew a straight line as he walked. He is a master of martial arts, his arm strength is strong, and his eyesight is even better, and he uses a Zen staff to draw a line, and there is no slightest skew. Su Yan walked between the two straight lines, looking left and right as he walked, and couldn't help but praise in his mouth: "Master Xuanji, there is really you! This line is drawn as if it has been compared with a ruler, and it has not deviated by half a minute." ”
Although Li Qiufeng faintly felt that something was wrong, he couldn't think clearly for a while, so he shook his head and followed. Because the eldest grandson Guangming and the monk Xuanji used a long sword and a Zen staff to draw lines on the ground as they walked, and Situ Qiao and Su Yan helped the two of them to confirm whether the two lines were drawn straight, so that everyone was moving forward much slower than before. After walking for three or four miles like this, he heard Su Yan clapping his hands and laughing: "This road is really weird! Fortunately, Li Daxia came up with this method, we will not be fooled again!"
Li Qiufeng and the others had already noticed that the two straight lines were drifting more and more to the right, and by the time they arrived here, the two straight lines had reached the junction between the right side of the road and the wilderness. That is, the road has been sloping to the left without realizing it. It's just that this inclination is extremely subtle, and it is difficult for the human eye to distinguish it, and it is only with many people that they have gone around several circles on this road without realizing it. It wasn't until Li Qiufeng came up with this stupid method, using the straight line drawn as a reference, that he was not deceived by the road and continued to go down the circle.
The five men stood on the side of the road and looked up. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but a boundless wilderness, with neither mountains nor trees. Because the sky was dark, all you could see was a hundred and ten zhang away. It's just that there is silence all around, but there seems to be a layer of mist floating in the wilderness, which looks quite unsettling.
Li Qiufeng looked forward for a moment, and said to Situ Qiao and Changsun Guangming: "Mr. Situ, Mr. Changsun, according to the two of you, should we go all the way?"
Situ Qiao smiled bitterly and said, "Do we still have a choice? If we don't go down, we can only go around in circles here, even if we want to turn back to Taibaiju, I'm afraid it's an extravagant hope." ”
Eldest Sun Guangming nodded, and said, "Mr. Situ is right. At this time, we are already difficult to ride the tiger, so we can only move forward. However, we have broken the mechanism of this road, and we are afraid that the person who trapped us will think of another conspiracy, so we need to be more careful. ”
After a long day of deliberation, they decided to go on. It's just that although this wilderness is very flat, there is a lot of sand and stones on the ground, and it is not easy for the eldest grandson Guangming and the monk Xuanji to draw a line with a long sword and a Zen staff. Fortunately, with the help of Situ Qiao and Su Yan, Li Qiufeng walked at the end to help confirm that two straight lines were still extending forward in the wilderness. But in this way, the speed of the crowd became slower and slower, and they walked for more than half an hour, but they only walked three or four miles.
Situ Qiao saw that after walking for most of the day, the surroundings were still gray, and the scene was exactly the same as that of the front and back, and there was no change from walking on the road before, but it seemed to be spinning in place. The more he walked, the more anxious he became, at first he just muttered to himself and cursed in a low voice, but later the anger in his chest was uncontrollable, and he even pointed at the sky and scolded the earth, and was furious. When Li Qiufeng and the others saw him like this, they were angry and funny in their hearts, but they didn't want to pay attention to him, because they listened to him scold him dirty, and everyone didn't speak.
At the beginning, Situ Qiao just scolded the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Taishang Laojun, and the Buddha of the Western Heavens, but later scolded him and pulled Confucius and Mencius in. In the end, even Qin Shihuang, Han Gaozu, Tang Taizong, Song Taizu, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Di were all scolded by him. I only heard Situ Qiao scold more viciously, the more scolding the more dirty, the muscles on his face twisted and twitched, his eyes slowly became blood-red, his body trembled slightly, and it seemed that he could burst at any time.
At first, Li Qiufeng thought that Situ Qiao was just a slight gaffe under his anger, but he didn't want to care about him. But looking at his later situation, he was shocked in his heart, secretly thinking that although Situ Qiao had a strange temper, he was cunning and scheming. For so many years, he has been running around in order to avenge Zhu Di's revenge for his ancestors, and even did not hesitate to make compromises, enduring great humiliation in the Hua family in the capital. In the belly of the mountain under the Hutou Rock, the mechanism laid by Yao Guangxiao is extremely strange, but Situ Qiao can also face it calmly. Although the situation is strange at this time, with the tenacity of Situ Qiao's temperament, he will definitely not lose his temper to such a point. Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng secretly shouted "not good", walked two steps quickly, and had already arrived at Situ Qiao's side.
At this time, Situ Qiao was waving his hands and scolding Emperor Zhengde for being a despicable and shameless bastard. Su Yan had heard a lot of romantic affairs about Emperor Zhengde, but he had no ill feelings towards this dissolute emperor. At this time, hearing Situ Qiao scolding so viciously, he couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Situ, although Emperor Zhengde is not very good as an emperor, he has not tossed the people. You're insulting him like this, I'm afraid it's a little bad?"
Situ Qiao stared at Su Yan viciously with blood-red eyes, as if he would pounce on Su Yan at any moment and tear Su Yan to pieces. Su Yan was startled, couldn't help but take two steps back, and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Situ, I'm just talking casually, you, don't be angry......
Seeing that Situ Qiao was crazy, for fear that he would break out and hurt people, the eldest grandson Guangming hurriedly blocked in front of Su Yan, clenched the long sword in his right hand, and said in his mouth: "Mr. Situ, Miss Su has no intention of reprimanding Mr., and I hope that Mr. will forgive me." ”
At this moment, Li Qiufeng's right hand suddenly stretched out and poked at the "Tianrong Acupoint" on Situ Qiao's right neck. This Tianrong acupoint is one of the key points of the human body, if it is hit by a martial arts master, the blood veins from the heart and lungs to the heavenly spirit will be cut off immediately, and the person who is hit will either die or be seriously injured. It's just that Li Qiufeng's calculation was extremely accurate when he made a move, and his strength was properly handled, after Situ Qiao was hit by the Tianrong acupoint, he only felt a confusion in his head, but his blood veins were not blocked, but his whole body was sore and weak in an instant, and his body shook a few times, and he sat down on the ground.
Eldest Sun Guangming and the others didn't expect that Li Qiufeng would suddenly take action to restrain Situ Qiao, and they were surprised and happy in their hearts, and when they wanted to speak, they heard Li Qiufeng shout loudly: "Mr. Eldest Sun, Master Xuanji, the two of you look at the straight line drawn, don't mess up the direction." ”
The eldest grandson Guangming and the Xuanji monk were heartbroken, and hurriedly stared at the straight line they had just drawn, not daring to be distracted in the slightest. saw Situ Qiao sitting on the ground, and his blood-red eyes slowly returned to their original state. It's just that although the vicious look on his face has disappeared, there is no blood at all, like a blank piece of paper. Li Qiufeng saw that Situ Qiao was dazed, no longer as crazy as Fang Cai, so he reached out and gently rubbed it on his Tianrong acupoint a few times. Situ Qiao's body trembled, looked up at Li Qiufeng and said, "Brother Li, what happened, how could I fall to the ground?"
Li Qiufeng helped Situ Qiao up, and said, "Mr. Situ, you seem to have fallen into someone else's way. In desperation, I had to seal your Tianrong acupoint, and asked Mr. Situ not to blame you. ”
Situ Qiao's face was cloudy, he frowned and thought for a long time, and finally shook his head, and muttered: "What happened just now, why don't I remember it at all?!"
