After running away for so many years... shouldn't I come back?
What the crazy woman said was so confusing that Yue Guanchao was also confused. He originally wanted to ask about the situation, but after the old madman finished speaking, he ran away to the side without looking back. He was afraid of causing trouble, so he did not pursue her again.
Yue Guanchao picked up Song Siyuan's telescope and looked at the cliff: "Brothers, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back now, so we have to find another way. I'm thinking there should be other exits from this town!"
Song Siyuan didn't believe in evil, so she took out the smoke bomb from her backpack and threw it into the abyss. It plummeted downwards, as if the abyss would never end.
When Ah Ying saw this scene, she also knew that they would not be able to go back for a while. She lowered her head and bit her lips: "Brother Yue, when I searched for Ah Weng's armor, I also found a map. See if you can use it." !”
"map?"
Yue Guanchao was worried about not knowing the direction. Hearing that Aying had a map, he quickly urged her to take it out.
Ah Ying lowered her head and flipped through the cloth bag and took out a deerskin map folded into squares.
Yue Guanchao took the map and spread it out flat, and a map of the former dynasty as big as a pot lid appeared in front of everyone.
This map is a picture scroll made of wild deer skin. It is neatly cut, has fine leather, and is decorated with hanging ropes at both ends. What is drawn in the ancient scroll is the Maluo, Kaxi, Kunwu, and Wu that surround Wu Coffin Town. In Jisi Mountain, there are even detailed descriptions of the buildings and streets of Wu Coffin Town, including the names. However, after all, the map is very old, and yellow spots and water marks have appeared on the surface, giving off a primitive atmosphere.
Song Siyuan looked at the map carefully and saw a line of embroidered writing in the lower right corner:
The geographical map of the Wu Coffin Administration under the jurisdiction of Qiha City, Longjiang Military Prefecture, was produced in the 26th year of Emperor Xu. The red seal is attached.
She was sure that this was the map of Witch Coffin Town from the previous dynasty, and her eyes shone with joy, which was even more joyful than getting the big news.
Since the founding of the Republic of China, all information on Wu Coffin Town has been destroyed. This map may be the only surviving map of the former dynasty of Longjiang Military Mansion.
"Ah Ying, why do you, Ah Weng, have a map of Witch Coffin Town?"
She and Yue Guanchao had long known that Wu Tuman might be an armored man. However, seeing the map from more than twenty years ago with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe their eyes and quickly asked Aying for more details.
The girl was not wary of them. She lowered her voice and said to them, "I'm telling you, but you are not allowed to tell anyone else."
"Actually, I, Aweng, am not a hunter at all!"
Speaking of this, Ah Ying's tone became mysterious: "Not long after the Wu Coffin Fire broke out, Longjiang Military Mansion sent a new battalion of cavalry to surround this place and establish a Yehe military garrison. He was an armored Taibao from the previous dynasty. This map is a detailed map given to me by Longjiang Army Town when they asked me, Ah Weng, to investigate the fire in the witch coffin."
"anything else?"
Song Siyuan is eager to know more clues, which will be of great help to her news writing!
Ah Ying shook her head: "Then I don't know. I overheard these while my grandson was drunk."
Lu Fengjian knew how important this map of the former dynasty was to them. He picked up the map and pointed at a certain mountain peak and said: "With this map, we may be able to find a way out. I think it is better to go in the opposite direction of the canyon and bypass it." The forest goes to another valley entrance.”
"I agree with Feng Jian!"
"I agree."
Yue Guanchao stopped talking and opened the compass. The copper needle that was supposed to indicate the direction was spinning around the copper axis like crazy. It was impossible to use it.
Song Siyuan noticed the change in the compass and took out her own compass. Sure enough, it also lost its direction and trembled randomly.
"Hey, this place is too weird. It seems that we can't rely on the compass. We can only try this map. I don't know if it will work."
Yue Guanchao marked their location on the map, gestured for other exits on the map, and explained his plan to his companions: "The streets in this town are crooked, and I thought that if I walked through the town, it would take a lot of time. How about... walking through the wild forest outside the town, which can shorten the distance."
"It's possible, but I guess it won't be too safe."
Song Siyuan experienced the ghost-faced mandrill, and she distrusted everything in this town.
"Just take it one step at a time. It's really dangerous. I, Yue Guanchao, will definitely die in front of you. Don't worry."
Everyone agreed, and none of them could refute this point. If it weren't for Yue Guanchao, everyone would have eaten the ghost-faced mandrill's belly at this moment.
They no longer resisted and followed Yue Guanchao's route to the wild forest outside the town.
…
Wu Coffin Town, outside the town, virgin forest
Far away from the town, the strange old buildings gradually become sparse, and the dense primeval forest covers the wilderness. From a distance, it looks like a dense mung bean garden spread into the black soil, so rich that it cannot be dissolved.
They walked into the forest, and the chirping of birds could be heard in their ears. Although they were upset, it also dispelled the haze in their hearts. Where there were live birds, at least there were no dormant beasts. Otherwise, these birds would only hover on the treetops and not dare to stand on the branches at all.
"Listen, is something coming?"
Yue Guanchao's ears moved and he noticed a small sound coming from the woods.
Before he had time to listen carefully, the dense bush was split with force, and a pair of black trouser legs stepped on the airflow and kicked directly into his face.
The wind on my legs was so strong that I felt the wind whistling in my ears.
If this kick hits the mark, the bridge of his nose will definitely be split, and he may not even be able to save his face.
Yue Guanchao realized that this person was serious and immediately stepped aside to avoid a strong kick.
The black-legged Fang Fu kicked straight in the air. Before Yue Guanchao could counterattack, he quickly turned around and launched a divine dragon whip kick.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, he dodged backwards and forwards. Before the black leg could be retracted, he locked the black leg with both arms and kicked the calf upwards with great strength.
The man was kicked to the point of numbness, which caused a few painful blows. Some of the strength was taken off his feet. Yue Guanchao took the opportunity to grab his ankle and throw it outward violently.
In an instant, a black shadow was thrown out from the bushes, somersaulted a few times, and landed in front of the person.
Yue Guanchao thought he was a gangster. When he saw the man wearing a cloak and armor, he immediately guessed his identity and his eyes widened in surprise:
"Uncle Utuman."
It's not that enemies don't get together, but when they see their sworn enemy, their hearts tremble, and even the air around them becomes a bit colder.
The old man was originally dissatisfied with their group coming to Wu Coffin Town, and his granddaughter was also bewitched by these people. Taking into account old and new grudges, he wanted to beat Yue Guanchao to death on the spot.
Utuman's eyes were full of viciousness, like an eagle seeing its prey, filled with murderous intent:
"I have known for a long time that you are not well-intentioned, and you decided to target my granddaughter without even asking me to do anything. Then you have made the wrong calculation. Since you want to come to Wu Coffin Town so much, the old man will bury you here. You say okay? No, young man!"
This sentence is not a question, it is clearly a threat!
Yue Guanchao looked at the old man, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Uncle Wu Tuman, you must have this ability."
"Stop talking nonsense and take the move."
The old hunter was dragged out of the bush by Yue Guanchao. He already lost face, and because he was looked down upon, his face was filled with anger.
He shouted loudly, took three steps and two steps at a time, stepped forward and threw a few old punches.
Knowing that Yue Guanchao was Ah Ying's grandfather, he did not dare to put in any effort, so he just moved around like a mouse hiding and seeking to avoid the old man's entanglement.
Seeing that he did not use all his strength, Utuman felt insulted and increased his strength.
Yue Guanchao thought to himself, this old guy used ten percent of his strength. He was determined to kill him. As the saying goes, if the enemy does not attack me, I will not attack the enemy. He secretly said to Aying that he was sorry, and he mustered up his strength and started to resist.
He was young and his fists were powerful and heavy. Every blow would cause Utuman pain for a long time.
But ginger is still spicy.
Wu Tuman has been walking in the mountains and forests for decades, and his strength is not as strong as that of a young boy. However, his martial arts skills are good and he is good at using force when punching. He can hit three or five punches in the same way that Yue Guanchao can throw two punches.
Brutal force and skillful effort are both equal.
The two people used fists and kicks in the woods, dragon soaring, tiger leaping, leopard leaping, snake coiling, crane spreading... The martial arts was mixed with fists and kicks, it can be said that the punches hit the flesh, and the wind of the punches was so fast that only a few afterimages were left shaking in the forest.
It's a good thing for an old man to aim for a thousand miles, but it's not good for him not to accept his old age.
Yue Guanchao took advantage of Wu Tuman's punch, jumped up in the air and kicked forward, straight towards the old man's head.
As the old saying goes, half a boy can collapse the kang. Before absolute strength, any skill is useless.
The old man knew this well and prepared to kick to the heart with his fists and feet, but he also played into Yue Guanchao's plan.
Yue Guanchao's kick to the head was just a feint!
He grabbed the vines on the tree, turned around like a kite, flew over the old man's head, and landed behind him as light as a swallow. Then he took advantage of the speed and used a whip to sweep his legs.
The kick caused him to stumble forward, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"You kid, you're looking for death!"
The old man Wu Tuman wanted to be strong all his life, but he was almost kicked in the mud by the young boy.
He was so angry that he picked up the thirteen-shot foreign gun behind him. Without even saying hello, he aimed at Yue Guanchao and pulled the trigger.
"Be careful when watching the tide~"
