372 Chapter 372 Back to the Lake

After his head was discharged from the hospital, Fatty asked Wu Xie on the phone: "Oh, by the way, is your second uncle still there?"

Wu Xie sighed and said, "We just left not long ago. Since the last time I came back, he stayed for another five days and then left. I don't know if they found anything there. He didn't tell me anything and just made an agreement with me." He said that we should have a good chat after returning to Hangzhou. I think when I go back, it will still be a problem if I can’t find him. But he said, I can investigate the stuffy oil bottle thing if I want to. We have the equipment this time. , I’m just waiting for you to come back.”

The fat man listened with a smile and said to him: "Okay, both of your uncles are mysterious enough. We will go back soon. Don't stop running back and forth. Just wait for us at Agui's house. Is there anything else?" If you need anything you want to bring over, please tell us as soon as possible, we’ll be leaving tomorrow.”

Wu Xie said to him: "Not yet, I will just wait for you."

The fat man said: "Okay, wait for us, hang up first." After that, he hung up the phone, and then said to us: "We agreed, let him stop making a trip, and we have finished cleaning up." , we will retreat after completing the formalities tomorrow. Miss Yujing, I see you have brought all your luggage, will you go with us this time?"

Yu Jing said: "Yes, I just contacted you. Xuefeng and Liyue haven't finished the work yet, and the results at home haven't been studied yet, so I'm here to accompany you this time." He touched me the back of the head.

I looked at her and said, "Can you please don't mention this? It's annoying to hear. Who made the rules about the watch? It's really annoying."

Yu Jing said with a smile: "Oh, you can't say that. That was set up to protect you, and it was set by your father himself."

I looked at her with confusion and repeated: "Dad?" I asked in my heart, who is the father... Since they didn't plan to hide Ziyan's matter from me, Xue Feng became his biological brother, so who is the father? ah……

Yu Jing said: "Let your brother Xuefeng tell you this later. Think carefully and don't leave anything behind. It's time to rest later."

After that, we went all the way back to Agui's house. As soon as we arrived at the door, the fat man shouted: "Fat Master, I'm coming back."

Wu Xie was sitting in the yard, Agui and Yuncai were working, and they saw us immediately.

Agui said "Oh!" and greeted him with a smile: "Several bosses are back. Are you feeling well?" "

The fat man patted his chest and said, "Okay, everything is okay."

Wu Xie said: "It's much faster than I expected."

The fat man said, "No, I rushed back without stopping." He said that he was so beautiful that he ran to Yuncai and looked at her and said, "Sister Yuncai, are you picking vegetables? Fat brother will help you."

Wu Xie looked at him and smiled helplessly.

Seeing how proactive he was, Yuncai grabbed a handful of vegetables and stuffed them into his hands. In an instant, I saw her quietly glance at the little brother again.

Agui asked: "Is this boss together?"

I told him, "Yes, my sister Liyue has gone back for something. This is also my sister named Yujing. She can just live in Liyue's house."

Yu Jing said, "Give me your bags, and I'll put things away." The younger brother gave both of our backpacks to Yu Jing, and Yu Jing took them all and said, "Take me there."

Agui responded: "Hey, come with me, please come this way."

Yu Jing took her own, and all the luggage of my brother and me, big and small, were piled on her arms, but her steps were still light, and the fat man was a little surprised: "Hey, Miss Yu Jing seems to be pretty good at it. "

I said to him: "You don't even know whose sister she is."

The fat man said "Yes" and said: "Yes, they are all strong, so you are just a little behind, right?"

I immediately said: "What are you talking about? That was before I could show my full potential. Without my help this time, you still want to get out of the mountain."

Wu Xie said: "Fat man, you can't underestimate our Xiaoxun. You were the first to fall this time, but our Xiaoxun persisted until the end. I remember it was Yu Jing who gave her an injection before she fell asleep. Yes, the way out was guided by others, and the medicine that saves everyone’s life is also their exclusive secret recipe.”

The fat man nodded and said, "Well, from what you said, it seems so." The fat man chuckled and said, "Sister, good job."

I said, "I just knew you." Then I muttered in a low voice, "Just because I'm trying to show off this time, I don't know how many times I'll be beaten."

The little brother touched my face to comfort me, took my hand and took me to the side to sit down, and slowly poured a glass of water. I lowered my voice and said to him: "Brother, tell me, you can escape this time." ?"

He sighed slightly and looked at me, and handed the water glass to me. I took the water glass worriedly and aggrievedly, drank some water and started to feel dazed.

Wu Xie also sat down, and after a while he said, "The equipment we brought before has been sorted out. Let's rest for two more days and then go to the lake to have a look."

The fat man patted the dirt on his hands and walked over, poured himself a glass of water, sat down and said "Hey", "Anyway, I must be connected with that place. I want to find some useful clues. I guess I have to go there." Lived there for a long time.”

Wu Xie said: "If we can't find any useful information this time, we will have to find another way."

Four days later, we went to the lake again. This time they erected loess mounds for the bones that had been fished out before, and they also held worship ceremonies.

The fat man muttered again: "Amitabha, God bless you, your death was completely in vain, and you even let people throw you into the lake. It's so tragic. Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Who should be looked for, who should be frightened, who should be frightened." , if there are spirits in the sky, and you are willing to help, please help us guide us, there are no clues here, just don’t know, let’s just forget it, we won’t force it, let everything happen...” He muttered a lot of things. No, he finally clapped his hands and said: "RIP the deceased, Amen."

He patted Wu Xie and said, "Now it's time for us survivors to work hard and look for clues."

Wu Xie sighed and said: "Pan Ma went crazy when he saw these bones that day and ran away. He never appeared again. I don't know what happened to him. To be honest, I feel a little guilty for driving him crazy."

The fat man said "Hey" and said: "But think about it, how evil the crimes he committed back then were. Look at what happened to them. It was simply tragic, right? If the old man doesn't feel guilty, he can make you Are you scared out of your mind with these bones? Everything has a cause and a result, this should be his destiny, don’t think too much, let’s go and get busy.”

This time we brought professional salvage equipment. My brother refused to let me go into the water. My brothers continued to salvage carefully, and I stayed above to wait for them and cook for them.

The fat man also tried to distract me by saying, "You have little hands like yours, and your fingers are not wet with Yang Chun Shui. Have you ever cooked? You don't know how to cook dark dishes for us."

Yu Jing said: "Don't underestimate our Xiaoxun."

He looked at the little brother and said, "Brother, have you ever tried her cooking? Is it reliable?" The little brother nodded, and the fat man asked again, "Is that delicious?" The little brother nodded again sincerely, but The fat man looked at me and curled his lips and said, "No, although I am an honest person, she is your wife. You must ask her without any reference."

I smiled nonchalantly and replied, "It doesn't matter. If you're not afraid of starving, you don't have to eat. Or if you have enough time, you can run back and ask Yun Cai to cook it for you."

Wu Xie said: "I believe in you, Xiaoxun. I might be able to do better than you."

The fat man said "Yes": "I can see that you three are the same family. I was the one who picked it up."

Wu Xie smiled and said: "Stop talking nonsense, fat man, go and salvage. Don't disturb Xiaoxun's cooking."

In the next few days, they successively fished out more things, but they found no particularly key clues.

Since Fatty ate the food I cooked, he was like a glutton. Every day when he saw me cooking, he asked me what I was going to eat today.

As soon as he came out of the tent that day, he saw me sorting out the ingredients and said to me, "Hey, girl, you got up early enough. What are you going to do today? Let me know in advance."

I turned aside the spare ingredients on the folding table. The fat man took a look and said, "Hey, these are beef, chicken, fish, shrimp, crab and shellfish. Where do they come from?"

Just listen to a man say: "I brought it."

The fat man Xun Sheng turned his head and saw Bai Hao walking over with a box. He said, "Hey Bai Hao, you didn't even say anything when you came, but you asked us to help you. You brought so many things, just by yourself?"

Bai Hao said: "Well, I've been here before. Do you remember the way? I want to improve the food for everyone. Xiaoxun and I will cook it together today. You can order whatever flavor you want with these ingredients."

Wu Xie walked out of the tent and saw Bai Hao, and was a little surprised that he had brought so many things. He said "Wow" when he saw these rich ingredients: "Suddenly it felt like we were camping. Don't tell me, I started to get greedy. Woke up."

I said: "Since you will be fishing later, let's make some simple things to eat first, and then do the complicated ones at night."

The fat man chuckled and said, "Okay, we will listen to the cook in everything, and we will do whatever you say."

I looked at the small pot that was cooking on the small stove next to me. I opened the lid and looked at it. I picked up a spoon and stirred it. I felt that it was in the state I wanted, so I picked up a small tea cup and poured it out. Just one cup.

The fat man asked: "What is that you did? I see you do it for him all the time these days."

It was a bowl of light pink transparent liquid, which looked like juice but was slightly more viscous. There were some red petals floating on it. I said to the fat man, "I won't tell you."

The fat man came over and smelled it and said, "This smells pretty good. Isn't it the same smell as your medicine? It's also mysterious. If you only let him drink it, could it be that there's something in it?" He's so strong, he shouldn't need any supplements."

I frowned and said: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. Anyway, no matter what you give him, it's not your responsibility." Then I said to the little brother sitting next to me in a daze: "Brother, let it dry for a while. Drink more." The little brother looked at it and nodded.

Wu Xie patted him and said, "I heard there's no such thing as a greedy cat. This is none of your business, so don't worry about it."

The fat man smiled mischievously and said, "I know, this is a little love drink for the couple. I don't care about this, I care about those."

While they were going down to salvage it, I asked Bai Hao, "How are you doing? Did you see the strange shadow I mentioned on the road?"

Bai Hao shook his head: "No, but if according to your guess, your distress is related to that shadow man, I think that man is probably hiding around here now."

I said: "Based on the timeline, the most reasonable guess is that this person may be the person who stayed here when Zhang Qishan explored this place.

But since Gu Tongjing, Zhang Qishan has long stopped exploring the ancient buildings of the Zhang family. If that person is Zhang Qishan, now that the matter is over, there should be no need for this person to act alone anymore, but he has been He is guarding the ancient building of the Zhang family here. Is he a member of the Zhang family?There is only one person in the Zhang family who needs to guard the ancient building of the Zhang family, and that person is only his brother. Why should that person guard this place?

What can be ruled out is that that person is definitely not from the Jiu Sect, because no one from the Ninth Sect is allowed to mention these things at all, and the current Ninth Sect people hardly know about the activities of the old Jiumen Sect.

Mrs. Huo is the only one left in the generation of old nine sects. If Mrs. Huo is still thinking about the Zhang family ancient building, it may only be because she wants to explore this place, and she is not likely to kill us.

Only Wu Sansheng and Huan Lian are left among the second generation of the Nine Sects, but they are cooperating with their elder brother, and their lives and deaths are uncertain.

The third generation of the Nine Clan? Needless to say, who dares to bully his brother, Wu Xie dares to risk his life with him. Brother Xiaohua and Xiuxiu just want to investigate the matter of Xie Lianlian and Huo Ling. They are not interested in the affairs of the Zhang family. , and it has just touched the edge.

That guy with slumped shoulders seems to recognize the bracelet that my brother gave me. His fighting ability is probably on par with my brother's. He is guarding the ancient building of the Zhang family and will kill my brother. This person is most likely a member of the Zhang family who belongs to "it" .

But the problem now is that the fighting ability in this matter is as good as that of my brother. I can't remember such a person in the Zhang family in "it". This person seems to have appeared out of thin air.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m sensitive, but since I went to the Qinling Mountains and learned about the fake archaeological team, I have thought of a very scary situation. That person is either a copy of my brother or a substitute for him.

The reason why you can't recognize him is that firstly, he doesn't show his face at all, so you can't find out. Secondly, it has to do with his slumped shoulders. Normal people's shoulders won't be like that, so the person may have suffered some kind of injury to be like that. . "

Bai Hao said: "This man is elusive and has amazing strength. You must be careful. I also didn't see the old man you mentioned. That old man was running after the slumped shoulders. Either he was really crazy. I don't recognize the slumped shoulders." Maybe he is the same as those corpses, or there is another possibility."

I looked at him and said, "What you mean is that they may have known each other before. Maybe the old man chased Tao Shoulder for the same reason as the old man chased Wu Xie. Tao Shoulder knew about him killing the archaeological team, and the old man became furious. Who knows? Who would he kill for keeping his secret? Although the old man was powerful, it was hard to compare with Tumbo Shoulder. He had angered Tumbo Shoulder. He hadn't seen anyone for so many days. If he was still in this forest, no matter how powerful he was, , I guess it’s a bit uncertain.”

Bai Hao and I speculated quietly, but it was just speculation. We never found these two people.

In the evening, Bai Hao and I improved the food for them. Some fried side dishes and some cooked barbecue. Bai Hao brought some wine. Not to mention how happy the fat man was. Wu Xie reminded him to drink less, as he would have to drink less the next day. Going into the water.

On the second day, they went into the water and continued to explore. Suddenly Bai Hao ran over and told me that someone had entered the mountain and was coming this way. I decided immediately that no matter who came, he should hide first. After all, the person who came here must be related to the incident. The relevant people asked Bai Hao to help me quickly remove our camp and hide in the bushes on the bank.

Brother and the others were originally planning to enter the ancient village and carefully check the situation of the Zhangjia Tower, but at this juncture, all the oxygen bottles were exhausted and had to be replaced. Just when they were about to go ashore and return, they discovered that they were near the lake. Something happened.
