Chapter 64(1/2)
The sky was dawn, and the golden sunlight shone through the clouds, dyeing the earth a warm golden color.
The cold dew in the morning was too heavy. Liu Yao, who had just woken up, saw that Tang Mian had already woken up not far away. Liu Yao was always curious about Tang Mian. Why did a young girl look so mature and didn't think much of a teenage girl?
Tang Mian noticed Liu Yao's gaze and turned her head slightly to look over.
Liu Yao met Tang Mian's gaze, showed a smile on her face, and walked towards Tang Mian. When she reached Tang Mian's side, she said, "You got up so early. It seems that you didn't sleep late last night, right?"
"Well, I'm not very adaptable, so I can't sleep." Tang Mian replied with a smile.
Maybe I have really been out of here in the past two years, so Tang Mian really doesn’t like this environment. Maybe there are other reasons. Anyway, Tang Mian almost didn’t sleep well last night.
She seemed to be able to hear the slow sound of running water as soon as she closed her eyes. However, when she was investigating the situation yesterday, they confirmed that there were no rivers around. Even when they woke up in the morning to wash, they had to go far away. There was no river at all a few kilometers away. They went so far that they used water to fetch water from a small mountain stream.
Breakfast is the food they brought themselves, just eat it with cold water, even if it is breakfast.
After breakfast, the group of people continued to do what happened yesterday and looked for clues around, but the result was very unoptimistic and almost no clues were found.
It was night again, and Tang Mian, who was sleeping shallowly, heard the sound of running water again. It was very close, and Tang Mian could confirm that the water was not far from where they were.
What is rare is that tonight is a full moon night, and a bright moon in the sky emits a faint light.
Shen Jun, who was vigilant, looked at the desolation around him and felt that Baijie was rogue. They had been here for two days and had not found anything. It was really frustrating. Moreover, the mission was also very strange. It was quite strange to have a little girl join their mission, and Shen Jun did not see anything special about this girl in the past two days.
Just when Shen Jun was in a daze, a shadow suddenly appeared on the ground covered by the moonlight, as if something had emerged from the ground, silently.
Shen Jun looked up, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he looked at the slowly rising from a distance that seemed to be the door. Shen Jun swallowed twice, then hurried over and woke up the other people who were still sleeping.
Wu Yu was the first to get up. After everyone else woke up, Wu Yu brought a few people to the door together.
From the observation, there was obviously a newly-detailed soil at the door, and there was a hole in the place under the door that allowed one person to pass through. This technique was obvious by Wu Yu, at a glance, known to be a common technique used by tomb robbers.
Looking at the entrance of the cave, the group sure this should be the entrance to the tomb.
The entrance to the tomb appeared strangely, and it appeared out of thin air, which made several people feel panicked.
But even though they knew it was strange, they still wanted to go in, and they had no choice.
In order to ensure safety, Wu Yu was the first to go in, the second to Liu Yao, then Tang Mian, and the last to Wen Feng and Shen Jun.
The hole is very narrow, and the air is thin after crawling in, making it difficult to turn around.
This narrow space that is annoying to people makes several people worried, and the smell of moist soil during breathing is full of the moisture.
After crawling for nearly a few hundred meters, the thief hole they were in gradually became a little wider.
A few minutes later, several people left the thief hole, and what appeared before them was a river a day.
When Tang Mian saw the river with silver light on the day, she suddenly understood what was going on when she heard the sound of water flowing two nights ago.
The place across the river can be seen as the real entrance to the cemetery. There is a door opposite, and there are two guarding animals on the left and right of the door. Tang Mian is not familiar with antiques and tombs, and does not know what kind of animal it is.
Wu Yu looked at the river, glanced at the other people, and said, "We need to swim over, but no one knows whether the water is safe. Everyone will be alert after getting into the water later. Also, Tang Mian, this is for you." After Wu Yu said that, he pulled out a dagger from his bag and handed it to Tang Mian.
Tang Mian looked at the dagger handed over by Wu Yu, and silently reached out to take it.
Tang Mian didn't prepare a handy weapon when he went out this time. The dagger given by Wu Yu looked extremely sharp. If there were any unexpected situations in the water, it might be useful.
Several people were groundwater one after another, and the cold river water made several people tremble for a few times before slowly getting used to it.
Liu Yao was still following Wu Yu, and Tang Mian was behind Liu Yao in the original order.
Several people were soaked in water, swimming slowly, and leaned towards the opposite side.
Suddenly, Tang Zhan glanced at the bottom of the water with vigilance. She felt something staring at them at the bottom of the water. The feeling of being stared at made Tang Mian feel particularly uncomfortable.
It was not only Tang Mian who felt this feeling, but others also felt it. Wu Yu spoke in front and ordered: "Get faster."
Hearing Wu Yu's words, the other people accelerated their movements, but at this moment, Liu Yao suddenly felt that she had encountered something while playing mobile games. Liu Yao's heart skipped a beat, bit her lip, and continued to swim.
You'll be kind to you for a while and Liu Yao touched something again. When Liu Yao met the thing this time, she reflexively reached out and grabbed it.
In recent years, it has been very dark. Apart from the faint silver light flashing across the water, I can hardly see anything else.
Liu Yao grabbed the things in her hand and looked at them for a few minutes, but couldn't see clearly what it was. It felt like it was fabric from the touch.
Tang Mian behind saw Liu Yao's movements clearly, and his eyes flashed over the things he was holding in Liu Yao's hand. Looking at Dongzi holding in Liu Yao's hand, Tang Mian's uneasiness became more and more obvious.
"Let's get to the opposite side as soon as possible." Wu Yu in front said again.
As soon as Wu Yu finished speaking, Tang Mian suddenly felt something approaching them.
Several other people could also feel it, speeding up their movements and being alert to the surroundings.
There was only the sound of water rushing around the quiet space. In this quiet space, several people felt that time had become slow.
Finally, a "slam" sound of water breaking out, and a huge black shadow emerged from the bottom of the water, and several people saw a pair of green eyes.
Then the black shadow attacked Shen Jun at the end. Shen Jun looked at the green beast's pupils getting closer and closer and suddenly gasped. Although he was afraid that Shen Jun did not run away in panic. Instead, when the thing approached, he raised the knife that had just pulled out from his waist and grabbed it tightly in his hand. When the distance was within the range of Shen Junke's move, Shen Jun swung the knife in his hand with force.
The knife in Chen Jun's hand scratched something hard and made a sharp and harsh sound.
The thing was not afraid of the knife in Chen Jun's hand at all. His thick body twisted and opened his mouth to bite Chen Jun. The fishy smell in its mouth made Chen Jun feel uncomfortable in his stomach.
Chen Jun was in danger, and several other people took action. Wu Yu quickly turned his head toward Chen Jun's position, and a piece of talisman paper in his hand hit the thing. The talisman paper might be of some use, but the thing retreated a little.
Wu Yu's attack seemed to anger it. It roared, and the sound made several people frown.
Tang Mian quietly approached Chen Jun and Wu Yu, staring at the behemoth not far away.
The other few people may not know what they were attacking them just now, but Tang Mian saw it very clearly. It was a big snake more than ten meters long, and there were two sharp horns on the top of the snake's head. From this, it can be judged that this snake must have a lifespan of at least a hundred years. If it is discovered by the outside world, it will definitely cause a sensation.
The snake that was angry with Wu Yu attacked Wu Yu and the others again. Wu Yu saw that the thing attacked and threw out the talisman again, but the talisman did not cause much damage to it.
A few minutes later, Wu Yu had fewer talismans on his body, but none of them came ashore. It was not that they didn't want to go ashore, but because the snake seemed to treat them as a property, and as long as anyone moved it, it would attack anyone. It did not allow its food to escape and had to be encircled within its sphere of influence.
Repelling it again, Wu Yu tightly squeezed the talisman in his hand, and a hint of sweat appeared on his forehead.
This is the last talisman on him. How should we deal with it next?
Tang Mian came to Wu Yu and the others, and then the big snake's eyes suddenly focused on Tang Mian's body. Its green beast eyes stared at Tang Mian, and the snake's letter spitted out, making a hissing sound.
Even animals can feel it. Tang Mian is the one who poses the greatest threat to it among these people's food.
Tang Mian looked at the green eyes and said that he was not nervous, it was a lie. Tang Mian had never encountered such a species in his two lives. He had encountered things that could be dealt with by metaphysics before, and the big snake in front of him really needed to be forced to with force. Even if Tang Mian had high force, Tang Mian had no chance of winning against this kind of creature.
Others also noticed that its attention was on Tang Mian, and Wu Yu looked at Tang Mian worriedly.
Tang Mian had no time to pay attention to anything else, because it had attacked her, and the big mouth with fangs opened and approached her.
Tang Mian looked moist in her palms, quietly clasped the dagger in her hand, quietly covered the spiritual energy, and drilled into the water.
Seeing Tang Mian's movements, the others were stunned. Just as everyone's heart was about to jump out, there was a "slam" sound, and Tang Mian came out from the bottom of the water not far away, but the place where she came out was one meter away from the snake's thick body.
The snake's thick body twisted and approached Tang Mian again. Tang Mian saw the opportunity and jumped up from the water. The dagger in his hand suddenly penetrated into the corner of the snake's eyes. Tang Mian faced the green beast's eyes at close range. He gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger into it with force, and stabbed it in a few more minutes again.
The pain made it suddenly enter the water, bringing the Tang cotton on its body into the water.
The water surface suddenly returned to calm. Wu Yu and the others were stunned for a while and swam towards the shore as soon as possible.
Finally, they arrived at the shore and looked at the water that had calmed down and Wu Yu and his eyes were red.
"Angkor, Tang Mian..." Liu Yao looked at Wu Yu with red eyes.
Wu Yu was slightly silent for a moment, pursed his lips, and said, "I'll go down and see, you guys stay here and wait."
After saying that, Wu Yu took a deep breath and jumped out of the water.
Wu Yu searched in the water for more than half an hour, and came up to breathe many times during this period, but he did not find Tang Mian. Not to mention Tang Mian, even the thing just now was gone. The water was calm and there was no bloody storm like before.
Several people finally gave up intelligently, raised their feet and continued to move towards the tomb entrance, praying silently in their hearts that Tang Mian could turn bad luck into good fortune and be safe.
On the ground, the bright moon in the sky was gradually blocked by the clouds, and the door that originally appeared slowly disappeared.
In Beijing, Fu Wen suddenly found that he, Wu Yu and his group had completely lost contact.
In the study, Fu Wen's face darkened and he quickly got up and went out.
The next day, Fu Wen confirmed that Wu Yu and the others were missing.
Wu Yu and the others disappeared out of thin air just like the previous tomb robbers and Professor Yu Shengli's archaeological team, leaving no clues or traces at all.
The army, Xue Bai walked quickly towards Li Yu's office with a red-headed document. When he arrived outside the office door, Xue Bai raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!" A dull knock on the door sounded.
Li Yu in the office replied: "Come in."
Xue Bai heard Li Yu's voice and pushed the door open and went in.
Holding the red-headed document in his hand, put it on Li Yu's desk, Xue Bai said, "There is a task."
"What task?" Li Yu picked up the documents on the table while opening his mouth.
Seeing the red seal on the document seal, Li Yu frowned slightly.
Xue Bai saw Li Yu's expression and smiled and said, "The documents of that department, Li Yu, you still remember Fu Wen. He is the good boy who grew up in our courtyard. He is now in that department. We haven't seen Fu Wen for more than ten years. I asked about his news from another place. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
Fu Wen, who is about the same age as Li Yu and Xue Bai, lived in the same courtyard when he was a child. The legendary child of other people was a white, well-behaved and smart baby when he was a child. When they were using urine and mud, Fu Wen was clean and wearing a vest suit and sat at home reading a book. When they were fighting with others, Fu Wen was the first in age every time, and there were photos of him on the honor list.
Li Yu and Fu Wen are two sharp contrasts, one is unruly and unwilling to discipline, and the other is smart and obedient, sensible and quiet.
Maybe the two were born with something wrong, and Li Yu and Fu Wen were only born with less than a match.
Li Yu still has an impression of Fu Wen. Every time Commander Li took the belt and praised him while slapping him, Li Yu would remember Fu Wen.
