Chapter 21: Confession

"What? Have you thought about what to say?"
Standing next to the well, Shirley Yang looked at Zhang Lin who had his back turned to her and asked.
Zhang Lin reached for something in his arms. Shirley Yang pointed the gun at him and said, "Don't move, what are you taking? Take your hand out slowly."
At Shimen on the side, Hu Ba saw Shirley Yang using his gun and hurriedly stepped forward. Wang Kaixuan hugged him and said: "Commander Hu, don't be impatient for now, let's take a look!"
At this time, Zhang Lin said: "Boss Yang, don't be nervous, otherwise the gun will go off and I will be dead." He held the folded yellow talisman in his right hand and slightly motioned for the other party to take it away: "What do you want?
All the answers you need are here!”
"What is it?" Shirley Yang took the talisman paper, turned it over and checked it over and then asked doubtfully: "Peace talisman? It's nothing special. What does it have to do with you not being short of water?"
Zhang Lin turned around and looked at Shirley Yang and said: "Raise your hands above your head and tear it apart!"
"Ah!" Shirley Yang, who had no idea what the purpose was, followed Zhang Lin's instructions in confusion. As a result, the moment the talisman was torn open, a huge water ball formed on Shirley Yang's head.
While Shirley Yang was stunned, the water balloon came down and drenched Shirley Yang from beginning to end.
"Zhang Lin!" Shirley Yang shouted.
"Fairy?" Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.
"Shirley, what's wrong?" Professor Chen and others came over after hearing the sound.
"Shirley, you..."
Looking at Shirley Yang who was soaked all over, Professor Chen and others were very puzzled. Wasn't he still fine just now? Why in the blink of an eye...
"Just now, Miss Yang was going back to get some equipment, but she accidentally slipped into the water. Fortunately, Zhang Lin's quick eyesight and quick hands pulled Miss Yang up, right, fat man."
Hu Bayi explained and asked about Fatty Wang. Wang Kaixuan nodded quickly in response. The two of them glanced at Shirley Yang's murderous eyes in embarrassment.
"Is that so? Shirley!" Professor Chen still asked in disbelief.
"Yes!" Shirley Yang nodded with a smile, wiped the remaining water drops on her head and said, "It's okay now, let's go back and continue the investigation!"
"No!" Professor Chen objected: "Shirley, you'd better go change your clothes and we can continue. Although the temperature in the desert is high, you can easily catch a cold. If you catch a cold in this place where there is a lack of clothing and medicine, it will be fatal."
"Okay!" Shirley Yang nodded, then climbed up the ladder with Chu Jian's help and went back to change clothes.
Several people shook their heads and continued to go back to investigate.
"By the way, where are Brother Hu and Brother Zhang?" Ye Yixin, who was walking, suddenly asked Hu Badi: "Didn't you say that Brother Zhang pulled Miss Yang out? Why didn't he see anyone else? Where did he go?
"
Wang Kaixuan asked doubtfully: "Is there no one else?"
"No!" Ye Yixin confirmed: "As soon as we go out, you two and Sister Yang will be the only ones there."
"Oh, that's it." Seeing everyone's confusion, Hu Bayi Lala Wang Kaixuan explained with a smile: "Didn't Miss Gang Yang go back to get something? If she fell into the water, Zhang Lin was asked to go back and get it.
!”
After saying that, he gestured to Wang Kaixuan who was standing aside: "That's right, Fatty!"
"Yes, that's it!" Wang Kaixuan, who had not yet emerged from the scene just now, returned.
"Is that true?" Hao Aiguo asked, shining his flashlight back and forth on their faces: "Didn't you lie to us?"
"This...what's so deceptive about this?" Hu Bayi said with a smile: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Zhang Lin and Miss Yang later."
After speaking, he said to Professor Chen who was still thinking deeply: "It's getting late, Professor Chen. We'd better hurry up and finish the inspection early so that we can go find the ancient city of Jingjue."
When Professor Chen and others heard this, they kept saying that it should be like this, so they forgot about what they had just done and went to investigate again.
Outside the ancient tomb, Zhang Lin, who had 'offended' Shirley Yang, used his skills to run out when Shirley Yang exclaimed, and ate snacks with An Liman.
I wanted to wait for Shirley Yang to calm down and apologize or something. After all, what I did was indeed a bit too much.
But when he looked up, he saw Shirley Yang coming out of the ancient tomb and heading straight for him.
"You're not so vindictive, are you?" Zhang Lin pretended not to notice, lowering his head and eating raisins.
When An Liman saw Shirley Yang coming over, he said hello. But Zhang Lin, who was with him, pretended not to see Shirley Yang and not hear what An Liman said.
Seeing this, Shirley Yang left the two of them and returned to her tent.
"What's going on?" An Liman looked at Shirley Yang leaving wetly in confusion, and asked Zhang Lindao with some confusion: "Little comrade, what happened to you down there? How did you get confused?
Are you all wet?"
Seeing that Zhang Lin didn't answer him, An Liman quickly got up and ran to the ancient tomb, saying as he ran: "I told you, you can't dig it up, something happened now."
"Mr. Zhang, who are you?" Shirley Yang, who had returned from changing clothes, sat next to Zhang Lin and asked, "What's going on with that talisman?"
After Shirley Yang finished speaking, the two of them sat in silence, but suddenly they heard Chu Jian shout: "Miss Yang, Professor Chen and the others asked you to come over. They have made new discoveries."
Seeing Shirley and Yang Fudang, Zhang Lin saluted and said: "Infinite Heavenly Lord, layman, you'd better go and see that ancient tomb first!"
Shirley Yang stood up, looked at Zhang Lin and asked doubtfully: "Taoist... I don't know which sect?"
"Yes, and no!" Zhang Lin said: "Father, the ancient tomb will guide you to the ancient city of Jingjue, but you can't find what you need. If you want to know everything, if we can come back this time, we can have a long talk
.”
Shirley Yang said: "Do you know what I'm looking for?"
Zhang Lin shook his head and said: "It's better to go there quickly!"


"Why does it take so long?" Hu Bayi asked the confused Shirley Yang, "Everyone is waiting for you, the shopkeeper, to come. We discovered a new tomb passage."
Shirley Yang came back to her senses after hearing this: "Where is it?"
"Over there!" Hu Ba pointed to the altar one by one and said, "Fat Man and Professor Chen went down first. I'll wait for you here." He looked behind Shirley Yang and said, "Where's Brother Zhang?"
He won't come?"
Shirley Yang said: "Don't worry about him, let's go down!"
"Hey!" Hu Bayi followed Shirley Yang thoughtfully down to the real tomb of Prince Gumo.
Going down, Hu Bayi explained from behind: "Fat Man discovered this accidentally. Professor Chen said it was related to the ancient city of Jingjue."
"Shirley, come here quickly!" Professor Chen heard Hu Bayi's voice, and when he saw Shirley Yang coming down, he quickly called her over and said, "Come, take a look, this place is related to the ancient city we are looking for."
"Look at these murals. They record the life of the tomb owner, and Queen Jingjue appears in them."
"These murals record that the tribe of Prince Gumo is a vassal state of Jingjue. They need to pay a large amount of treasures, cattle, sheep, and slaves to Queen Jingjue every year, and they are oppressed.
Prince Gumo once sent an envoy to the Kingdom of Jingjue, hoping that Queen Jingjue could reduce some taxes for his tribe, but Queen Jingjue refused to receive him.
Prince Gumo is the incarnation of the Sun God of War. He is planning to sneak back to Jingjue Kingdom and assassinate Queen Jingjue..."
The group of people interpreted the mural, which recorded how Prince Gumo assassinated Queen Jingjue and finally united with other tribes to destroy the Jingjue Kingdom.
As for the record in the mural about Queen Jingjue's ability to make people disappear, Shirley Yang speculated that Queen Jingjue was a banshee, but Hu Bayi did not raise any objection.
