Chapter 51: Memories of the Tianmen Mountain Grottoes (2)
Ni Xiu carried Pang Ye behind his back to avoid the treasure hunters, and successfully joined Ji Wushuang and others.
"What now?"
Ni Xiu frowned: "The place has been found, and it is near here." But we didn't have a map, and we didn't know exactly where it was. In this vast desert, who knows if the treasure is buried in the sand or on that broken mountain?"
Qian Duo was speechless: "Brother Xiu, your memory is really not ordinarily bad, I really don't understand how long it took you to memorize meat jokes for Wushuang in the academy that day......"
Recalling the past, the corners of Ji Wushuang's expressionless mouth couldn't help twitching: "Qian Duo said before, that group of people are talking about the treasures of Tianmen Mountain. There is only one Tianmen Mountain behind the Tianmen Pass. ”
"......" Ni Xiu recalled vigorously, "Did Brother Qian say it?"
"......" everyone nodded in unison.
"Okay. There are all sand dunes here, so there is no doubt that the highest stone mountain must be Tianmen Mountain. Ni Xiu waved his hand and pointed to the towering Tuhuangshi Mountain not far away.
Looking at it again, the group of treasure hunters were also traveling in the direction of this stone mountain.
"I thought it would be safer to let that group of people go in first," Ji Wushuang muttered, "We will follow them, and we can still help them when they are in trouble." But if we let them follow us, in case we are bound by something, it is hard to guarantee that they will not put cold arrows behind our backs. And they must have come prepared, and they must have known what dangers might be inside, and if we were in front, they would probably be overtaken by them. ”
Ni Xiu couldn't wait to go in, but when he heard this, he felt a shudder in his heart. Indeed, they can guarantee that they are righteous men and gentlemen, but that group of treasure hunters, judging from the previous hurried face-to-face, I am afraid that they are not good.
So, they watched the path of the group from a distance, and only when they were hidden in the rocky mountain did they come out from behind the dunes.
After walking some mountain roads, I finally came across a hidden cave. The entrance to the cave is not large, and only one person can enter at a time. The withered grass growing outside the cave blocked the light from the scorching sun hanging high outside, and not a single trace could penetrate it.
Ni Xiu took out a fire talisman between his two fingers, and instantly illuminated the small space in the cave.
"Wow! Brother Xiu, it's really an endless road!"
Zhu Heng said a word, and Ni Xiu was inexplicable when he heard it: "Why did you say this?"
"Your spiritual power is weak, but I didn't expect your talisman technique to be amazingly good? This fire talisman was improved by you, right? It can be so bright and dazzling. ”
"......" Ni Xiu was speechless, when is this now, the focus is actually here, are you playing with me?
Chong Zhu Heng rolled his eyes, and caught a glimpse of what seemed to be something on the wall behind him. Ni Xiu motioned for them to silence and took a closer look, but there was nothing.
Several people each held a fire charm, and they didn't let go of the corners and corners, and after careful groping, they found nothing, and couldn't help muttering: "It's strange." There should be a door here, otherwise how did the group of treasure hunters get in?"
Ji Wushuang was silent, took out the Taoist ancestor's Qihuang technique, and calculated it, pointed to a stone wall and said, "If there is a door, it should be here." ”
Ni Xiu stepped forward and stroked and beat the places he pointed out, and he was about to become a doctor, and the eighteen classes of martial arts that he had heard and heard were all moved out, but he found nothing.
was depressed, when he heard Zhu Heng exclaim: "Come and see!"
I saw that the place where Zhu Heng was pointing faintly showed a wet pattern color.
Several people looked happy: "Hongyi, how did you find out?"
Zhu Heng was slightly ashamed: "That...... I've always had a bad problem. When I was in a hurry from childhood to adulthood, my palms would sweat wildly. Then, when I was banging on the wall to find the door, I accidentally wet the wall here, and I saw it. ”
"It's Sha Jiao. Ji Wushuang said firmly.
Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, he explained: "It's Sha Gong." I've seen it in books. The environment in the northwest is harsh, and calligraphy and painting are not easy to survive, so after discovering a painting material called sand hammer, the people of the north mostly use sand hammer to paint on the stone. ”
Zhu Heng liked calligraphy and painting the most, and was very excited: "Yes, I remember! It is rumored that the colors of Sha Gong are bright and vivid, and the paintings made with it can not distinguish the authenticity." There is a rumor that in the early years, a scholar occasionally got a sand tie, blended it into the painting, and got a beautiful lady to come out of the painting curtain, with a graceful body, a lotus step by step, and Ye Ye brilliant. ”
Ni Xiu was speechless: "Isn't that just a fine calligraphy? But the question is, why is there only one corner? Could it be that the sweat in your palms makes this painting visible?"
"It is rumored that the sand can hide its tracks, avoid the erosion of the scorching sun and wind, and only appear when it encounters water. It seems that the only way to find out where the door is now is to look at the pattern on the stone wall. ”
That being said, it was true, but everyone suddenly made a mistake. If you want to see the pattern, you have to have water, but in the vast desert, where can they find so much water? A few people have water hoses, but they can't use it, right? They still have to live.
But without water, they wouldn't be able to find out where the door was...... For a while, it seemed to become a cycle, and it was at an impasse.
"Or ...... You put some water?" Ni Xiu said weakly.
Everyone turned red and said in unison: "Get out!"
While they were discussing, they heard a strange sound coming from overhead.
A few people looked up and saw that their scalps were numb!
I saw that the top of my head was densely packed, and I don't know when there were tiny sand snakes adsorbed. The snakes in the sand were not very large, but they all knew that they were extremely venomous and extremely agile. At this moment, he spit out red letters, made a sizzling sound, and opened his mouth to show them his small but extremely sharp fangs, ready to attack!
Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them, and when they were in a daze, You Min was the first to react and exclaimed loudly: "Set up an enchantment!"
At the moment of lightning, an ice-blue barrier bounced through the densely attacked sand snakes, protecting everyone in it.
"Ahh
She wasn't very afraid of snakes, and who hadn't seen a few snakes before? But there were so many, so dense, all over the stone wall! It's too disgusting! Who knows, before her scream had passed, she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind her. Thinking that something had taken advantage of the void, several people hurriedly looked behind her, but it was Ji Wushuang lying on the ground with his eyes closed.
Ni Xiu was shocked: "Brother Ji!"
Pang Ye and the others hurriedly grabbed her body and threw herself up, and carefully turned Ji Wushuang over in the enchantment with the scabbard, and did not see a sand snake jumping out before he stepped forward to help him up.
