Seeing that Gu Zangfeng's words were not false, Li Dabao did not dare to say any more words.
I curled my lips and started to clean up the mess.
The locked dragon-like thing, after being dragged down, howled at us several times and found that it still couldn't touch us.
Finally, he reluctantly submerged himself into the lake.
This seemingly calm lake actually ate two of us.
Now the only person who is still relatively strong is probably the talented person like Gesang.
Uncle Yan was still unconscious, and Gu Zangfeng was almost out of ammunition and food.
At this time, the sky was pitch black, and the slightest bit of moonlight above the head was gone.
The surrounding woods and bushes all made a whirring sound, and it seemed that there were many things coming towards us from all directions.
Li Dabao's bullets were almost gone.
I handed the submachine gun I had to Li Dabao.
As for Dashan's body, it has fallen into the lake, and it is definitely impossible to salvage it.
Everyone ate something briefly, and then Gu Zangfeng said: "Let's continue..."
I frowned and turned to look at Uncle Yan lying on the ground and said, "Mr. Gu, Uncle Yan is already like this. Why don't we let Gesang take care of him here? How about we go in?"
Li Dabao, who was packing his things, raised his head, glanced at me and said nothing.
Gu Zangfeng said softly: "We don't have much to eat anymore. Let's not talk about how dangerous it is here. Once we go in, we don't know when we can come out. Are you sure you want your Uncle Yan to stay?"
"But now that I'm taking Uncle Yan with me, he's definitely not going to be okay given his condition."
Gu Zangfeng fell silent.
Because the situation we are currently in is actually like this.
No matter which choice you make, there is actually a problem.
Finally, Gu Zangfeng's frown relaxed.
He said to me: "Chen Xu, I won't hide from you anymore, I'll let you know everything."
"Although it is risky to leave Uncle Yan here, I have marked the road. Gesang is here to accompany him. He should be able to hold on until he meets Guishou and the others."
"But it's not certain. After all, the situation here is complicated."
"As for the second point, let's take the Fifth Master with us, because we are very likely to meet that group of people later. They don't know me, and they can't betray my face in anything."
"As for what you are worried about, I still have a way to restore Mr. Wu to a normal state, but the side effects will be severe and will most likely be lifelong."
"So you decide for yourself how to choose, and I respect your opinion..."
I squinted my eyes and thought for a moment and said to Gu Zangfeng: "The method you mentioned is not to use Gu to turn Uncle Yan into a living dead, right?"
In fact, when Gu Zangfeng said that he had a solution, I already thought of what happened at the Shuyi Tomb.
That's what Guishou used at that time.
But Gu Zangfeng shook his head and said: "No..."
"It is a secret method originating from our Twelve Cave. It will definitely not become a living dead or die. However, this secret method is incomplete. Even if it is complete, the price will be very high."
"But one thing I can guarantee is that if I use this to save your Uncle Yan, I can guarantee that he will be alive."
"I can't guarantee anything else. He may be permanently paralyzed, he may eventually become mentally ill, or he may have Alzheimer's disease. There's no telling."
Seemingly seeing that I hadn't made a decision yet, Li Dabao became a little impatient.
He said directly: "Jiuri, do you know the Fifth Master?"
"If he can hear what we are saying now, do you think he can make you think he is a burden to us?"
"I, Li Dabao, don't have that big ambition. I just want to hold my treasure and touch the underworld weapon, and then make a fortune and play in the world."
"But I know one thing, how much you want to get something, you have to pay a high price."
"There is no free lunch in this world."
"Although I hate this fat man, I have to say, Chen Xu, he sees much more clearly than you..."
Li Dabao was told by Gu Zangfeng and immediately became unhappy.
I turned around and wanted to argue, but I had already made a decision.
I came to Uncle Yan and whispered: "Uncle Yan, I don't know if what I am doing is right."
"But I think what Dabao said is very reasonable. Regarding our Chen family and the matters between you, I think we must make a decision."
"Even if this unknown road is full of difficulties and dangers, I have reached this point and I will continue on."
After saying that, he rubbed his sore nose and nodded to Gesang.
Gesang hummed and bent down to give Uncle Yan a hug.
Then he put his hand behind his back.
After simply packing up their things, the four people and one wounded person walked toward the end of the forest.
The night wind was very cold at night, and there was always a whistling sound all around.
But those poisonous species were absent.
However, judging from our experience, something more sinister is definitely waiting for us quietly in front of us.
We walked from midnight to dawn, and from dawn to afternoon.
Uncle Yan woke up once during this period.
But he just drank some water and passed out again.
Li Dabao asked Gu Zangfeng several times why he didn't let Uncle Yan get better immediately.
Gu Zangfeng said that the time has not come yet.
Regarding these, my guess is that this secret method requires a special environment and special props.
It doesn’t even last long and so on.
At dusk on the second day, we had not yet left the primitive forest that was almost the same everywhere.
But something abnormal has appeared in the sky.
When everyone heard this voice, they all stopped and looked up at the sky in the distance.
In fact, the trees here cover the sky and the sun, and there is thick fog. Even if you look up at the sky, you can't see anything.
But the sound sounded like fireworks.
Finally, Li Dabao remembered.
"This is not fireworks or explosives, it is a flare..."
"Look at the curling red mist in front of you..."
It just so happened that we could only vaguely feel the presence of the red mist, and then rushed out of the primeval forest in the direction of the red mist.
The moment he rushed out, the whole surrounding world suddenly became brighter.
Although there is no so-called singing of birds, fragrance of flowers, and fragrant air, everything in front of me is no longer in that foggy state.
At this time we were standing on the edge of a cliff, with a large black swamp at our feet. There were many rotten trees in the swamp, and there were many poisonous insects crawling around.
The reason why you can see so clearly is entirely because those poisonous insects are so big.
And when I looked into the distance, almost at the end of my sight, a scene that was both familiar and unfamiliar to me appeared.
"This is……"
I couldn't believe my eyes.
That building and the surrounding mountains.
These all appeared in my dreams.
Li Dabao noticed my abnormality and turned around and asked: "Nine days, what's wrong with you?"
I squinted my eyes and said, "I have seen this place in my dream..."
As I said this, I touched my carrying bag almost reflexively.
In the portable bag is my ancient bronze mirror from the Warring States Period.
I was sleeping with this ancient mirror in my arms, and then I had such a strange dream.
There may even be an underground room at the bottom of this huge building submerged in the black swamp.
There is a person in the room.
And that person is still alive.
I looked at everything in front of me and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Gu Zangfeng was already standing on the edge of the cliff and started pinching his fingers.
I saw the way he was pinching his fingers and asked, "Mr. Gu has also done research on Yi Jing Feng Shui?"
Gu Zangfeng did not turn around and said in a low voice: "I am definitely not as good as you Taosha officer in searching for dragons and digging holes. I use our own methods. I am not looking for graves, but looking for people..."
As he said that, Gu Zangfeng stretched out his hand and pointed diagonally in front of us and said: "Where should we go down? There is a crooked neck tree somewhere, and then we can go around in a roundabout way. We will definitely not be able to get through this black swamp..."
Li Dabao shook his backpack and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go..."
When we climbed the rope and descended to the Crooked Neck Tree, we discovered that there was a volley plank road that had been broken for several sections on the side of the Crooked Neck Tree...!
