Section 18 The Dust Boy
Da Niu and Lichen rested for the night in the dilapidated house, and they recovered some of their spirits.
Xuzhou City is also a big city in Qi State, only two hundred miles away from Bianliang. The two of them came to the street early in the morning and were shocked by the sight, and the street was crowded with people, so it was not lively. Xuzhou City has a large population, and the streets are deserted during the curfew, but during the day, people naturally come out to move.
They ate a lot of mutton last night, and the two of them were in a hurry to find the marks left by Lonely Miaozi on the street, so they didn't want to eat breakfast. Fortunately, there were no officers and soldiers searching around during the day, and the two of them were quite relaxed. It's just that they searched for a day from morning to evening, and they didn't find the mark of Lonely Miaozi. Teahouses, hotels, and post stations are places where Lonely Miaozi often leaves marks, and the two searched all the teahouses and hotels in Xuzhou City, but they didn't find Lonely Miaozi's mark.
"Dust, isn't the Daoist of Lonely Miaozi out of the city?"
"No, since Uncle Shi didn't leave a mark outside the city, it must be inside the city. If we can't find Uncle Shi tonight, we'll go out of the city to look for it. ”
"It seems that this is the only way, we have been looking for a day, and it is time to eat. ”
The two found an inconspicuous shop, only ordered two side dishes, and wanted to eat them as soon as possible to find the mark of Lonely Miaozi. The big cow ate quickly, and when he was waiting for the dust, he inadvertently touched the bottom of the table and seemed to have a pattern. Da Niu touched it carefully, and found that it was a mark left by Lonely Miaozi, in order not to attract the attention of outsiders, he couldn't squat down to check, and touched it for a while to confirm that it was a mark of Lonely Miaozi, but the mark was crooked, obviously it happened suddenly.
"Dust, you touch the table with your hand, my side!" Da Niu said softly.
Lichen glanced at Da Niu and reached out to touch it. There were different traces of bumps between the fingers, and after careful identification, it was found that it was the mark of Uncle Lonely Miaozi. The two glanced at each other, and Da Niu immediately settled the bill and set off for the point where the mark was pointed.
"The marks left by Uncle Shi are of different shades, there must have been an emergency at that time, you and I quickly went to check. ”
"Don't run, be calm, you'll easily get people's attention. ”
Not long after the two of them walked out, they saw a mansion, which occupied a huge area, and the gate was guarded by guards. This is obviously a big family in Xuzhou City, and it is not inferior to the mansion of the official mansion. Lonely Miaozi must have entered this courtyard, and the high walls of the house were not an obstacle for the two of them.
Da Niu and Lichen found a secluded place, and after observing for a while, Da Niu jumped up first, propping up the high wall and looking inside. This is the garden in the courtyard, and the rockery in the garden is strange, which is quite charming. There are no flowers in winter, but the evergreen pines add a touch of green to the garden. After the big cow signaled to the dust, he climbed over the wall and entered the hospital, and the dust was light on the big cow, and he jumped up and entered the yard.
"Let's look in the courtyard, maybe the Lonely Miaozi Daoist is heading somewhere. ”
"It stands to reason that Uncle Shi's light work is a hundred times better than us, and he should have left Xuzhou a long time ago, how could he let us catch up?"
"Could it be that he caught up with Si Yao?"
"The Jin people want you to go to Huining Mansion, and you won't stay in Xuzhou City for so long!"
"Then why is the Lonely Daoist in Xuzhou City, and why is he in this house?"
"Uncle Shi is in danger!"
As soon as Lichen's words fell, the two suddenly heard a loud laugh.
"Hahaha, are you two looking for someone?"
As soon as the words fell, a person walked out from behind the rockery. Looking at this person's outfit, it is obvious that he is a golden person, but he is very fluent in the original words.
"Who are you?"
"You two sneaked into my yard and asked me who I was?"
Seeing that this person was quite polite, Lichen stopped the big bull and said to the golden man:
"It's wrong for us to break into your yard, so we're leaving. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait, is my Tang Kuowentian yard so easy to enter?"
As soon as Tang Kuo's words fell, nine people suddenly rushed out from the darkness. These nine people are also dressed as gold people, and they all hold bronze mirrors in their hands, and they don't know how to use them.
"Let me show you my bronze mirror trapped in the ground!"
The nine people were ordered to quickly discharge the formation. The four people form a square on the ground, and the bronze mirror shines in turn. The four of them stood on it, and the bronze mirror shot at an oblique angle, sealing the upper road. The bronze mirror was blessed by people's internal force and actually emitted yellow light, and this yellow light would add a little internal force to them.
"Dust, let's break out!"
Da Niu was just about to break out of the formation when he was stopped by Chen.
"Brother Da Niu, this yellow light is weird, you can't break through!
After saying that, he took off the thunder bead from Da Niu's hand and put it on his right hand.
The nine bronze mirrors are the ancient relics found by the ancestors of the Tang Kuo clan in the deep mountains of Changbai, and the Tang Kuo clan has gone through several generations of specialized research to exert the power of this bronze mirror. The bronze mirror excites yellow light through the internal force of the person holding the mirror. When hit by this yellow light, it will burn the internal force. The higher the internal force, the more serious the injury, and the burned internal force will not recover.
At present, the two of them are trapped by the bronze mirror trapped in the ground array, and the eight people will block the upper and lower left and right roads, and one person will continue to irradiate the people in the town with yellow light. And the four people on the ground kept moving into the formation, even if the two of them dodged the attack of outsiders, they would be injured and captured sooner or later.
"Brother Da Niu, watch me break through his bronze mirror trapped in the ground formation!"
The big bull can only continue to dodge the yellow light now, and the dust is facing the sky with his right hand, causing the sky to be immediately clouded before it has fallen. Tang Kuo Wentian looked at the vision in front of him and felt strange, only to see a flash of lightning suddenly fall from the dark clouds. This lightning is the thickness of a person, and it falls on the dust so that people can't look at it directly. The dust body was not injured in the thunder, and the thunder he gathered was more and more, and even the yellow light outside the formation was fine on him. Lichen suddenly shouted:
"Big Bull Brother jumps quickly!"
Da Niu did not doubt him, and immediately got up and jumped up, just when he was about to meet the yellow light on the road, the dust dispersed the thunder gathered to the ground, and the four people on the ground in the formation were immediately injured and fell to the ground, and the bronze mirror trapped in the ground array was broken!
