Chapter 106
The old ghost was taken aback for a moment, and recalled carefully.

He was in the lead before, and when he heard movement in the air, he stabbed directly with the dagger without even thinking about it.But the dagger was useless, as soon as it poked the bird's stomach, it broke directly.

After that, he was protected by Cui Zigeng until he ran into the woods...

He thought, frowning, "At first I attacked the bird, and the strange bird attacked me back. Then my sword broke, and I couldn't fight anymore... I'm not sure whether Mr. Cui protected him well, or Why... I really didn't feel attacked afterward."

Duan Yi listened and looked at her spear, the tip of the spear was curled up.

She looked towards the thick fog and said, "Old ghost, do you dare to walk with me again? We will not take the initiative to attack this time, let's see what happened to that strange bird?"

"No", without waiting for the old ghost to answer, Cui Zi interrupted Duan Yi decisively, "I'll go with the old ghost, you and Su Yun will watch here."

He said, pointing to Duan Yi's long spear, "Your spear is not good. My sword, it is said to be a magic weapon, but it is absolutely extraordinary iron. It is a sword with a name and a name. It has been fighting with me for many years."

And Duan Yi's long spear is no different from the spears used by ordinary soldiers in the Jiannan Army.

Duan Yi nodded without coddling, "Then be careful. Even if the four of us can't find the treasure today, it's not in vain. Next time we come back, we will bump into these strange things."

Cui Zi nodded and glanced at the old ghost.

The old ghost was startled, and unconsciously followed his footsteps. They couldn't walk a hundred steps, and the white mist began to boil again.

Cui Zi pulled out the long sword in his hand, turned to look at the old ghost, "You are one foot away from me, don't worry, I'm here, even if they attack you, you won't die."

The old ghost swallowed his saliva, nodded viciously, and distanced himself from Cui Zi even more from the side.

The white bird in the thick fog seemed to feel the provocation, and it was more commotion than the previous one. This time, it didn't wait long, and rushed towards the two people's positions overwhelmingly.

Duan Yi watched from a distance, and tsk-tsk, "What do you mean by being jealous when meeting enemies? These strange birds are even more jealous when they see me and Cui Zi!"

The white strange bird flew gracefully over the old ghost's head, and pecked directly at Cui Zigeng. Cui Zigeng was fearless in the face of danger, and shouted, "Old ghost, you go back first."

The old ghost nodded, and tentatively ran towards the grove.

The situation became clearer now, no bird was chasing him, Cui Zi looked at him, his pupils shrank sharply, and his figure moved instantly.He stood there before, like an immovable mountain, but now he was moving like lightning, and before everyone could see clearly, he was one step ahead of the old ghost, and got into the woods.

Unlike the previous time when it faded away directly, the white bird hovered in the air for a few weeks angrily before leaving angrily.

Cui Zi stretched out his hand and touched the right side of his cheek, a red bloodshot immediately appeared on his hand, "This bird is like some people, with thorns all over its body, if you don't prick someone a few times, it will make you feel unhappy."

Duan Yi saw that he was acting strangely, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and snorted heavily.

"The strange bird doesn't attack Su Yun and the old ghost, but only Cui Zigeng and me. This proves my guess, which is very likely to be true. It is attacking the person with the sheepskin fragments on his body."

As Duan Yi said, she looked at Su Yun inquiringly?
Su Yun nodded hurriedly, and gave Duan Yi a thumbs up, "Because you all have my broken rubbings, I didn't even think about it, I still have one piece!"

As he said, it was rare for him to be clever, "but I have a question. The first emperor left the sheepskin fragments, isn't it just for future generations to look for treasures? If the strange bird is a treasure-protecting animal raised by someone, why would it attack the fragments? people?"

"It's clear that those who don't have fragments are more likely to be like the old ghost, an out-and-out tomb robber."

Duan Yi shook her head, "I haven't fully thought through the reason. But, what I can tell you is that your idea is wrong. If someone came and attacked, then Wuping Mountain would have been unable to hide. "

"It is precisely because this place is as ordinary as Cui Zigeng's face, that is why the capable people of Jiannan Road have not leveled this place and dug out treasures for so many years."

The old ghost listened, and took a sneak peek at Cui Zigeng's face, good guy, if this is called mediocre, then what should his face be called?Is it extremely ugly?
Cui Zigeng remained calm, "Can we continue today?"

Duan Yi shook her head, "I feel that the bird has been angered. If we go again, we don't know what will happen. We haven't even found which side the tomb door is facing, and we have already met a formidable opponent. "

"It can be seen that the underground is extremely dangerous," she said, playing with a flower gun in the air, "Besides, we don't have the weapons in our hands, so we're going to be unlucky today, so we'd better retreat and come back when we're ready. "

As she spoke, she blinked a few times at Cui Zigeng.

Cui Zi understood in seconds and nodded.

"What charades are you playing?" Su Yun scratched his head in confusion as he watched the two make eye contact.

"She said that it would be a good thing if someone came ahead of us, and then we would be able to step over the enemy's corpse." Cui Zigeng said, put his sword back into its sheath, walked to his horse, turned and rode go up.

Su Yun's eyes lit up, "As expected of my family, Duan San! It's just smart! Don't worry, ordinary people can't even think of those tattoos."

It is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain. It takes more effort to get out of the mountain than to go up the mountain.

Because there was no good result, the four of them did not speak on the return journey. When they returned to the city, they had already missed the lunch hour, and the restaurant began to become deserted.

Before entering the city, they separated as they had come.So now only Duan Yi and Cui Zigeng are left.

"Cute eat fish?" Duan Yi asked.

Cui Zigen nodded, "I used to go fishing with my father. I was very good at slicing raw fish. The fish fillets were as thin as a cicada's wings. My father was good at making sauces. He said it was an ancestral recipe in the family. .”

"Next time, please try."

Duan Yi stole a glance at Cui Zigeng, his whole body softened, and he didn't know if it was because he mentioned cooking or because he mentioned Cuiyu, the king of Jiangnan.

"So you are good at cooking because of your family background?"

Cui Zi shook his head, "He only knows how to stretch noodles. My mother likes to eat noodles."

"The fish in Sichuan is different from the ones you mentioned. You will know after you try it. It is refreshing with pepper and hemp. After eating a bowl, the whole body will feel refreshed from the feet to the top of the sky!" She said, leading Cui Zi directly. Further into the restaurant.
