I saw the fat dragon-elephant-golden rat cautiously sticking its head out from behind the stone. It first looked towards us, and then it saw the one-eyed old man lying on the ground. With a ferocious expression, he bared a pair of big teeth and made a series of "uh-uh" sounds at us.
The sound was extremely terrifying. It sounded like the cry of a seven or eight-year-old baby after being strangled by the throat.
The three of us couldn't help but take a step back. The dragon, elephant, and golden rat lowered its body, stepped back and stretched its front legs, as if it was about to pounce at any time to risk its death.
Seeing this, I hurriedly smiled at the dragon, elephant, golden rat and said with a smile: "I'm talking about Dahuang, listen to me, your old man was not injured by us. He was stabbed in the back by someone else... …”
I pointed to the knife stuck in the one-eyed old man's back, and then said, "Look if you don't believe me! You have been with a few of us just now, so you should know that this knife is not ours, right?" "
The dragon-elephant-golden rat was indeed a spiritual creature. It seemed to understand what I said. It tilted its head and thought for a while, then ran away to the side of the one-eyed old man and used its plump nose to poke at the one-eyed old man. The old man sniffed his whole body.
Xiong Ming saw me talking to a big rat like a psycho, so he secretly touched me with his elbow and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Hu Tian, is there nothing wrong with you?" If you talk to a mouse, will it understand you?"
I glanced at Xiong Ming, lowered my voice and said, "How do I know if he can understand? The most important thing to do now is to stabilize it first, and then..."
I suddenly paused when I said this, and then glanced at Xiong Ming. Xiong Ming has been my friend since childhood, so he naturally understood that I wanted him to outflank and attack me.
He immediately gave me an OK gesture and then slowly moved to the left.
But before Xiong Ming could take a few steps, the strange bell rang again.
"Boom...boom boom...boom...boom...boom boom...boom..."
Hearing the strange bell ringing, the three of us couldn't help but feel startled, and the hair on the dragon-elephant-golden rat stood up in an instant, as if it had been greatly frightened, it turned around and staggered. Sneak away and run behind the stone.
When I saw this, I shouted: "Big Bear, catch it! Don't let that big rat escape!"
Xiong Ming shouted: "Don't worry! Leave it to me!"
After saying that, he took a step forward, opened his hands like a blind bear pouncing on food, and pounced on the dragon, elephant, and golden rat.
But the dragon-elephant-golden rat was too cunning. When he saw Xiong Ming rushing towards him in a fierce manner, he suddenly turned sharply, then kicked his hind legs on the ground, twisted his body in the air, and got directly into the big piece. Behind the stone.
Xiong Ming missed a hit and cursed: "This big rat runs really fast!"
After saying that, Xiong Ming quickly ran after the big stone, but he had just ran a few steps when suddenly the stone wall not far in front of us suddenly made a loud "boom", and then countless The rubble fell one after another, revealing a stone door covered with strange runes.
The three of us were shocked when we saw this, but before we had time to think about it, the stone door suddenly roared and slowly lifted up, revealing a dark corridor behind it.
The three of us, you looked at me, I looked at you, and for a moment we didn’t know what to do.
At this moment, a yellow-white figure flashed, and the dragon-elephant-golden-rat suddenly sprang out from behind the stone, turned around, and ran straight into the corridor behind the door.
Upon seeing this, Xiong Ming shouted: "I'm going, that big rat ran inside, should we chase Hu Tian?"
I thought for a while, then finally gritted my teeth and said, "Chase!"
Xiong Ming said loudly: "Yes!"
After saying that, the three of us rushed into the corridor behind the stone door. Just after we entered the corridor, the stone door that had been raised high suddenly fell down with a roar, completely disconnecting this place from the outside world. Isolate.
Darkness has enveloped everything.
——————————
Everyone has a different understanding of darkness. Some people are very afraid of its existence, while others are happy to immerse themselves in it.
Just as the three of us rushed into the dark corridor, another person was sitting alone in the dark corner.
He is Xu Yingzhi, the second head of Yiyuanzhai, and the second master Xu.
Mr. Xu sat on the huanghuali Taishi chair he often made and looked out the window quietly. The cigarette in his hand was lit, but he did not smoke it. Instead, he let it burn on its own. Even if the ash fell on his pants, he didn't care. His eyes just stared out the window motionlessly.
Mr. Xu rarely does this on weekdays, but today he has been sitting like this for more than two hours.
What does he seem to be waiting for?
Are you waiting for someone?
Still waiting for news?
No one knows, perhaps, even Mr. Xu himself doesn’t know what he is waiting for.
After a long time, the cigarette in Xu Erye's hand burned to the end, and the hot burning sensation pulled him back from his thoughts.
Mr. Xu lowered his head and glanced at the cigarette in his hand, smiled bitterly, then slowly put it out, and then lit another one.
At this moment, the mobile phone next to him suddenly rang. After a burst of old-fashioned ringtones, Mr. Xu slowly picked up the phone and said in a slightly respectful tone: "I have followed your instructions to send all directions to Sifang." I told Hu Tian the location of the seal."
After hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone said "Yes" with satisfaction, and then said slowly in a very old voice: "Then they have entered Biluo Village?"
After hearing this, Mr. Xu hesitated for a moment, and then said slightly nervously: "This... I'm not sure about this, but it should have arrived."
The person on the other end of the phone asked with some dissatisfaction: "Not sure? Xu Laoer, what do you mean?"
Second Master Xu said tremblingly: "I...the people I sent lost them on the way, so I'm not sure whether they entered Biluo Village or not."
The person on the other end of the phone asked slightly in surprise: "You lost me halfway?"
Mr. Xu said: "Well! It was fine at the beginning. After passing Huai County, a group of people suddenly rushed out and knocked down all the eight people I sent. Only one person managed to run back. According to the one who came back, From a human perspective, that group of people are all dressed as Miao people and are probably members of the Gu sect."
After hearing these words, the person on the other end of the phone thought for a while, and then asked in a deep and old voice: "What else did the young man who ran back say?"
Mr. Xu hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "He also said... He also said that those people seemed to have let him back on purpose. I guess they just wanted us to think that the Gu sect was responsible for this. For that matter.”
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be dissatisfied with Xu Erye's clever guess, and scolded: "Xu Erye, when was it your turn to guess?"
When Mr. Xu heard this, he couldn't help but trembled. He wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth for a long time, no word came out.
After a while, the person on the other end of the phone slowly asked: "How is the news I asked you to inquire about?"
After Xu Erye coughed dryly, he said: "I have sent two groups of people to inquire about the news. The first wave of people who came back only found out that the person we are looking for is a little girl. As for the other information, they have no idea at all. . And the people sent out in the second wave have not returned yet.”
At this moment, a young man suddenly ran in from outside, shouting as he ran: "Master Xu, it's not good! Something big has happened!"
The person on the other end of the phone heard this person shouting and immediately hung up the phone without saying anything.
After hearing the "beep beep" busy tone, Mr. Xu took a long breath and felt relieved.
Mr. Xu turned around and looked at the young man who ran into his room. He frowned and asked sternly: "Chen Liansheng, you are also the most serious master among the three generations of disciples in Yiyuanzhai. When did you become like this?" No more rules?”
The young man named Chen Liansheng seemed to have been running in a hurry before. He took several breaths and then said out of breath: "Second Master, it is true that I broke the rules this time. But this time it really is Something big has happened! Please follow me to the backyard and have a look! They are gone! Several of them are missing!"
Mr. Xu frowned and said in surprise: "It's gone? What's missing? Can you please explain it clearly?"
Chen Liansheng said loudly: "The person is missing! The person in the coffin is missing!"
When Mr. Xu heard this, he immediately stood up from his chair and asked loudly: "What? All the people in the six coffins are missing?"
Chen Liansheng shook his head hurriedly and said: "No! No! Except for Hou Dayong and Hua Sanniang from Hua Handkerchief, the remaining Korean sisters from Fengmen, Ba Shou Liu from Qianmen, and the grass ghost woman from Wumen are all here. Gone."
Mr. Xu asked in surprise: "I kept asking you to guard the backyard, but no one saw how they disappeared?"
Chen Liansheng shook his head and said: "You have asked us brothers to keep a close watch in the backyard, so as not to cause any accidents to the heads of the family, and the other eight sects will take advantage of this to cause trouble. How dare we neglect it!" What's more, I didn't leave for a moment. I even took turns to pee. I was worried that I would drink too much water and have a bubble in my urine, which would delay the time. But who would have thought..."
Just before Chen Liansheng finished speaking, a young man suddenly ran in from outside. This young man was also extremely anxious. He shouted as he ran: "Secretary Xu, someone has sent something, and I must do it first." I’ll leave it to you at once!”
Mr. Xu said loudly: "What is it?"
The young man gasped and said, "It's an envelope."
Mr. Xu said: "Give it to me!"
The young man immediately handed the kraft paper envelope in his hand to Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu took the envelope and looked at it. On it were written in red cinnabar five affiliations in traditional Chinese - "Xu Yingzhi personally opens the door."
Mr. Xu was very surprised, but his hand didn't stop at all. After tearing open the envelope, he took out a photo from inside.
Mr. Xu brought the photo to his eyes, but it didn't matter. His whole body shook and fell to the ground with a "thud", and the photo in his hand also fell to the ground.
I saw that the picture in the photo was at the foot of a snow-capped mountain. Judging from the large and small piles of nima nearby, this photo should have been taken somewhere in the Tibetan area.
What makes people feel very horrified is that in the photo, there are four men sitting side by side, four men holding their own heads.
What makes people feel even more horrified is that although these four people were beheaded, they always had a satisfied smile on their faces, as if they were enjoying the most beautiful thing in the world.
