The sun slowly rises in the east, and the warm sunlight shines on Huanhua Town, making the gloom of the town disappear, but the dead streets and the thick smell of blood still make people shudder. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoOn the street at this time, Xie Xuan and the three of them walked side by side towards the west, their faces were either resolute, happy, or naughty, and they were full of spirit in the morning sun. The rivers and lakes need their youthful and uninhibited blood.

"Xie Xuan, you should take a look again! What does this map mean?"

"How many times have I watched it?

"Oh, senior sister, you are smart, just help me take another look!"

"Senior brother, I really can't understand this, I think since this is the Great Xia Ancient Tomb, you should still find someone from the Great Xia Dynasty to ask. ”

"The people of the Great Xia Dynasty? Aren't they all zombies? Alas, it seems that my 50,000 taels are in vain. ”

Sima Mo walked all the way out of Huanhua Town, and studied the tomb map he bought with a lot of money for a long time, but he couldn't understand what it was said at all, so he lowered his head helplessly, thinking that he had simply exchanged silver for a piece of waste paper, and he had lost a lot.

The three of them went all the way to the west, and they had already helped the Zhenhai Dart Bureau to protect the darts, and it was time to return to the sect to resume their lives, but first, Nangong Qin wanted to play again, and second, Sima Mo was very unwilling to this map of the ancient tomb of Great Xia, so Xie Xuan had to accompany them to an ancient city in the west.

About noon, the scenery around the three of them was no longer bamboo forest and grassland, a quaint city appeared not far in front of them, the city wall was engraved with the words "Fengming City", this is an ancient city in the Central Plains, the history is extremely long. It is said that when the city was first built, it rained for several months, and the bricklayers and carpenters had a headache, and the residents were living a hungry and cold life, and it would be difficult to survive if there were no houses, so everyone united and worked together to overcome the bad weather, and a group of people built houses one by one with umbrellas, and after a long time, they finally completed the construction of the city together. At noon on the day when the whole city was built, the heavy rain suddenly stopped, a golden phoenix in the sky broke through the sky and roared, the sun and the rainbow appeared above the city, the people in the city bowed their heads and worshipped, and since then people have named this city "Fengming City".

In this Fengming City, most of them sell ancient characters and paintings, and there are some antiques from unknown dynasties, which are as true and false as elsewhere, making it difficult to distinguish between them. There are many places to drink tea and listen to operas in the central area, and the old neighbors in the ancient city usually listen to a piece after dinner, and life is very leisurely. All the teahouses in the city have a long history, and they have been turned into black and gray verandahs, as if telling the distant stories of this place.

After Xie Xuan and the three entered the city, Sima Mo was very interested in those ancient characters and paintings, and carefully selected them one by one, but Xie Xuan and Nangong Qin were disdainful of his move, because both of them had seen Sima Mo's "Song of the Goose" that he bought with a lot of money. They really suspected that Sima Mo was an imposter scholar now, and he was just dressing himself up as a scholar.

Sima Mo admired the calligraphy and painting while not forgetting his own ancient tomb map, when he saw people, he asked if he could understand it, in his opinion, one is an ancient tomb, the other is an ancient city, there will definitely be a connection, but after walking for a long time, asking for a long time, as Xie Xuan expected, there is no one who can understand.

"Hmph, what a ruined ancient city! It's all some liars who are deceiving the master here, I don't even understand Da Xia Wen, and I still say that I am a professional. Sima Mo said angrily.

"I see, you'd better throw it away like a piece of waste. It's past noon now, shouldn't we go get something to eat?" Xie Xuan asked.

Xie Xuan and Nangong Qin didn't have much interest in calligraphy and painting, they just accompanied Sima Mo around, and at this time, their stomachs were already screaming dissatisfied.

"When you say that, I feel very hungry, so let's follow the local customs and go and eat while listening to the play!" Sima Mo said, looking at a teahouse in the distance.

The three of them walked for a short time and came to the teahouse. At this time, there were already a lot of people eating tea and listening to the play, and some of them shook their fans to show a very enjoyable expression. This teahouse is one of the largest teahouses in Fengming City, and not only provides guests with a variety of high-quality teas, but also some small snacks and side dishes, but does not sell alcohol. Xie Xuan and the three of them found a position not too far from the stage and sat down, ordered some food and looked at the stage.

A tall man on the stage was holding a giant axe, the axe was flying and spinning in his hands, although he was tall and big, but he was growing lotus step by step, playing with the giant axe for a while, and began to sing in a strange tone, Xie Xuan didn't understand it, but he felt that he should be singing the story of Pangu opening the world. Sima Mo didn't understand either, for him, as long as he thought about watching a play, his father could hire an opera troupe to sing every day in his own house, and he was not very interested here, so he chatted casually with Xie Xuan on the side. Only Nangong Qin listened to the play with relish.

The big man on the stage babbled and sang for a quarter of an hour, and finally finished stepping down from the stage, and the surrounding spectators stood up and applauded, while Xie Xuan and Sima Mo looked drowsy.

At this time, there was a little boy on the stage, about eight or nine years old, with two pigtails and a red coat, and his little face was very cute. Xie Xuan and Sima Mo saw that they were about to sleep again, so they yawned and leaned back.

I only heard the children on the stage say unhurriedly: "At the beginning, the party members established a political power in the western part of China. In the first year of the Tang Dynasty, Tuoba Sigong occupied Xiazhou, and sealed the envoy of the difficult festival and the prince of Xia, and attacked each other from generation to generation. Later, when Li Yuanhao founded the country, he took Xia as the country name and called it "Great Xia". And because it is in the West, the Song people called it "Western Xia". “

After saying that, the kid took a short gun from the side and spun it around his body very skillfully. Xie Xuan and Sima Mo didn't care about the child's immature performance, but they were suddenly interested in "Da Xia". Could it be that there is nowhere to find it when he steps on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it? His painstaking research on the ancient tomb map has been fruitless, and this child actually mentioned Daxia.

So, Xie Xuan and Sima Mo stared straight at the little boy on the stage, as if they were afraid that he would disappear at any time. A quarter of an hour later, the little boy finally finished singing, and Xie Xuan and Sima Mo were still drowsy. Seeing this, Nangong Qin immediately woke up the two of them. The two of them saw that the little boy had left, so they quickly got up and followed him out of the teahouse.

I saw the little boy walking down the street with a broken bowl and a short gun, and there were a few copper plates in the broken bowl, and it seemed that the money for a meal was not enough.

Sima Mo walked quickly to the little boy, took out ten taels of silver and put it in the little boy's broken bowl, and looked at him with a smile. The little boy looked at the ten taels of silver in the bowl, opened his mouth wide, and thought to himself that the personable scholar brother in front of him was either a fool or trying to do something for himself, so it was better to stay away, so he bowed to Sima Mo and took a detour. Sima Mo stood there stunned and didn't react, he thought that the little boy would thank him gratefully and then talk, but he didn't expect people to leave so simply.

Sima Mo hurriedly ran to the little boy and said, "Little friend, I have given you silver, this silver is enough for you to spend a long time, you only need to tell me one thing." Speaking of this, Sima Mo took out the map of the Great Xia Ancient Tomb and continued: "Just help me see what is written on it." “

The little boy took it curiously and looked at it, and then returned it to Sima Mo, saying, "I don't know, I don't know a word." ”

"But... But you obviously just talked about the Great Xia Dynasty!" Sima Mo said regretfully.

"I talk about Da Xia, but it doesn't mean that I know the words of Da Xia, what a fool. After the little boy finished speaking, he walked forward again around Sima Mo.

Xie Xuan and Nangong Qin laughed when they saw this, and saw Sima Mo standing there dejectedly with a snort, so they walked over and comforted him. But they did underestimate Sima Mo's will, although he was disappointed, he didn't give up, and pulled Xie Xuan and the others to follow the little boy not far behind, his intuition told him that this little boy must know something about the Great Xia civilization, but why didn't he tell himself?

The three of them followed the little boy around the city, the child did not go back to the residence directly, but played with a childlike heart, buying a sugar gourd for a while, and going to see people playing acrobatics for a while, which made Xie Xuan and the three of them miserable, walking around and around the ancient city, and their tired legs hurt slightly. Finally, in the evening, the little boy had had had enough of playing and went into a deep alley.

Xie Xuan and the three followed the alley, only to see the little boy enter a broken yard, Xie Xuan immediately felt that something was wrong, this courtyard was brightly lit at the moment, in stark contrast to the dark courtyard next to it, the three of them walked to the gate of the courtyard and stopped, and heard the little boy shout after entering: "What are you doing! Dare to beat my grandfather, I will fight with you!"

"You little beggar, get out of the way!"

"Woooo

"Hurry up and hand over all the money you've earned today!" a man's voice said.

"I don't have any money! You guys let my grandfather go!"

"No money, then fight! You guys, shoot them to death!"

This series of conversations in the courtyard was heard by Xie Xuan and others from beginning to end, although Xie Xuan didn't know what the situation was, but when he heard the little boy crying and calling grandpa, he immediately felt ruthless, kicked the wooden door open, and swept his eyes to see a little boy and a blind old man in the courtyard lying on the ground, surrounded by five or six thug-like people, behind these thugs, there was a short man who was fatter than Jin Ruiwan, with a shiny face and an extremely arrogant expression.

Xie Xuan saw that those thugs were about to make a move, and immediately shouted: "Stop!"
