The white-haired old man nodded in agreement, then pointed to the corpses on the ground and said: "These corpses were originally wearing clothes. I asked my eldest nephew to take off their clothes."
"Are they all Bai people with dragon tattoos on their bodies?"
The old man in gray robe asked.
As soon as the gray-robed Taoist finished speaking, the man in the leather jacket and the man in the cotton-padded jacket immediately walked over to the corpses and searched them carefully, but they did not find dragon tattoos on these people. The two shook their heads at the gray-robed old man.
.
The old man in gray robe turned his attention to the old man with white hair.
The white-haired old man looked at the two of them and said calmly: "Open their mouths."
The two were startled, and then they opened the mouths of two of the corpses. After seeing the conditions in the corpses' mouths, the man in the leather jacket was the first to exclaim, "The corpses have dragon tattoos on their tongues!"
"Me too."
The man in cotton-padded clothes followed closely.
Afterwards, the two opened the mouths of other corpses, and the mouths of the others also had dragon tattoos.
The man in the jacket looked at the white-haired old man with a flash of surprise in his eyes. Just now, the two of them only carefully inspected the appearance of the nine corpses, but did not open the mouths of the nine corpses. How did the uncle know these tongues?
One with a dragon tattooed on it?
"There are only three kinds of people in the world: men, women, and eunuchs."
The white-haired old man glanced at the man in gray robe and said.
The man in gray robe nodded. There are three types of people in the world. Even today's humans, demons and transsexuals all fall into the category of eunuchs.
“The Bai people believe in ‘the harmony between humans and gods, and the harmony between gods and gods’.
The previous sentence deifies humans, implying that humans and gods can communicate without barriers.
The last sentence personifies gods, implying that they also have seven emotions and six desires.
The nine corpses represent everyone in the world. The dragon is their god in their hearts. The real dragon feet hidden here represent the dragon god.
But after all, humans and gods are not in the same world. Something is needed to connect humans and gods together so that they can communicate without barriers and achieve "harmony between humans and gods."
Only when we find this connecting thing can the true dragon's feet hidden here appear."
The white-haired old man said what he was thinking.
Zhang Fan, who was in Jade Dragon Bingchan's belly, had been listening to the conversation between the two parties. Zhang Fan agreed with the white-haired old man's speculation.
The old man in gray robe, the man in leather jacket, and the man in cotton coat all nodded in agreement.
"Then do you know what connects them?"
the man in the leather jacket asked.
The white-haired old man glanced at the man in the leather jacket, snorted coldly, and said coldly: "I don't know!"
"you!"
The man in the leather jacket uttered one word angrily, and then cursed angrily, "You little old man, you are really bad!"
Before the white-haired old man could speak, the gray-robed old man shouted, "Shut up! Don't be rude!"
"If you fucking talk to my uncle like that again, I will fight you!"
The man in the jacket began to protect his shorts.
The man in the leather jacket looked coldly at the man in the jacket and said nothing.
"I think what you said makes sense."
The old man in gray robe looked at the old man with white hair and said, "You really don't know what connects them?"
"I really don't know. I've told you all the clues I can provide, and now it's up to you."
The white-haired old man said.
The gray-robed old man nodded, and then said to the man in cotton-padded clothes beside him: "Most of the nations in the world summon gods in the form of sacrifices, and so does the Bai people. I remember that you have a friend who is the leader of the Bai people. Ask him where the Bai people are.
Everyone needs something when performing sacrifices, and I feel that the thing that connects them should be among the sacrificial items."
"That makes sense."
The man in cotton-padded clothes nodded, "Then let me ask."
As the man in cotton-padded clothes spoke, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, "Master, there is no signal on the mobile phone. I have to go out and make this call. There may be no signal at the top of the mountain. If not, I will have to go down the mountain."
"Then I'll take you out."
The old man in gray robe said.
After saying that, the two of them were about to walk out, but as soon as they took a step, the old man in gray robe stopped and looked back at the man in the leather jacket, the man in the jacket, and the old man with white hair.
Although the white-haired old man showed his age and didn't have much physical strength, he could stab someone or cut their arteries without any problem.
After the two of them left, if the man in the jacket attacked the man in the leather jacket, they would be about the same size, so it would be difficult to tell the winner. If the old man with white hair tried to stab the man in the leather jacket at this time, it would be bad.
"You come with us."
The old man in gray robe looked at the man in the leather jacket and said.
"I..." The man in the leather jacket subconsciously glanced at the white-haired old man and the man in the jacket, meaning he wanted to look at them.
"Stop talking and come with us!"
The old man in gray robe gave a low drink.
The man in the leather jacket had no choice but to say no more and follow the old man in gray robe. Before leaving, the old man in gray robe smiled apologetically at the old man with white hair.
The three of them were chatting in the corridor. The man in the leather jacket expressed his worry that the white-haired old man and the man in the jacket would run away. The old man in gray robe replied that there was only one entrance to this strange space, and they were at the entrance.
It is impossible for people to escape.
"Uncle, how do you know those people have tattoos on their tongues?
Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
The man in the jacket asked with a somewhat complaining tone.
“I didn’t think about it at first.
After the two of us observed everything about them, we found nothing. In addition, they had already arrived in front of us, and the situation was critical.
I suddenly remembered an allusion from Nanzhao Kingdom. In that allusion, a Bai tribe had a dragon tattooed on his tongue. I felt that this might be the case for these people, so I said that."
The white-haired old man laughed dryly.
"Can this be correct?"
The man in the jacket said something incredible.
"Uncle, you can actually explain things that don't make sense to you in a convincing way. Your psychological quality is amazing!"
The white-haired old man glanced at the man in the jacket and said: "Although it's a mystery, there is still some basis for it. What is hidden here is the real dragon's foot. Among the ethnic minorities here, the Bai people worship dragons and worship dragons the most. Therefore,
I just thought that these corpses were from the Bai tribe, and that allusion made me say that."
The man in the jacket nodded, and then asked: "Uncle, what should we do next?"
"We can't go out now, and we don't know enough about the Bai people's sacrifices. We can only wait for them to come back and act accordingly."
The white-haired old man said.
"OK."
The man in the jacket suddenly thought of something and asked worriedly, "Uncle, you just said that if you tell them everything you know, will they kill you?"
