Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

"You mean, the thing that hit the boat underwater just now was a giant turtle?"

Shirley Yang asked in surprise.

Su Mu shook his head.

"No, it should be a big fish."

As for how big...

I can only say that it is much smaller than the big turtle he mentioned.

About one fifth.

It does sound a bit like the Iron-Headed Dragon King.

The head is heavy and shows signs of having been raised.

The Yellow River is the mother river. What secrets are contained in it cannot be detected even after decades of more advanced technology.

Iron-headed Dragon King?
Su Mu was not sure whether there were other iron-headed dragon kings in the Yellow River.

But the one in front of us is the one that just came over and caused a storm.

It was collected by Su Mu into the space.

In Sumu’s grandmother’s courtyard, there is a freshwater lake and a coastline.

Some of these bighead fish are as big as this iron-headed dragon king.

Throw it in and see the effect.

As for whether it can be eaten and how to eat it?
We will discuss this later.

So, in fact, it was not because the fat man fell into the Yellow River and fed the Dragon King that the people on the boat were saved.

Instead, it was because Su Mu secretly took away the Iron-Headed Dragon King that the people on the ship were able to survive.

As for who provoked the Iron-Headed Dragon King...

Su Mu looked at the little kid who was held tightly in the arms of his middle-aged father.

Su Mu had just seen him throw a stone into the river.

Eerie white stone.

At first it was floating on the river, and then there was a moment of lightning and thunder.

Swallowed by the Iron-Headed Dragon King.

There is something wrong with that white stone.

But Su Mu doesn't need to care about it anymore.

After all, the white stone entered the stomach of the Iron-headed Dragon King.

The Iron-Headed Dragon King entered Su Mu's space.

It's just a big iron-headed fish waiting to be slaughtered.

Wanting to eat or wanting to kill is just a matter of thought.

The ferry did not encounter any more wind or waves and arrived at its destination safely.

Sumu and Shirley Yang went ashore at the small pier closest to Gulan County.

Another person got off the boat.

It’s the old man wearing black glasses.

In fact, the middle-aged father holding his son was also ready.

Seeing Su Mu and Shirley Yang get up and get off the boat, the two of them sat back down for some reason.

Maybe you'll get off at the next stop.

Let's avoid the murderer Su Mu.

Well, maybe he should not be called a murderer, but the executor who feeds the Dragon King and saves everyone.

Not even an executioner.

No one knew that the fat-faced man was not dead.

Nor did I feed any big fish.

Instead, it was eventually pulled by an inexplicable force, and after its belly was filled to a full size, it "floated" to the shore.

I'm afraid he should wake up by now.

The man with the fat face has a dirty heart, but his crime does not deserve the death penalty.

Su Mu did not kill, he just gave a small punishment as a warning.

Su Mu and Shirley Yang stayed in the county town for one night.

Yes, they arrived half a day earlier than expected.

After all, taking a bus is not as convenient as taking a ferry.

In a flash, we reached the shore.

So it was natural and logical that they did not encounter Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, Da Jin Ya and the other three who came out to intercept them.

In order to avoid guessing Su Mu and Shirley Yang's route correctly, the three of them deliberately split into two groups. The unreliable Fatty Wang and Da Jin Ya went in one group, and the more steady Hu Bayi went alone in the other group.

then……

Da Jin Ya and Wang Pangzi were accidentally discovered by Ma Dadan's men again.

"You're looking for someone?"

"Yeah, yeah, have you seen such a tall man with a very beautiful long-haired woman...?"

Fatty Wang showed his cowardice as soon as he came up.

Ma Dadan's people just pretended to be common people and approached them to chat.

Seeing that they looked like they were waiting for someone, I subconsciously thought that they were waiting for another lost man, Hu Bayi.

Unexpectedly, before he could find an excuse, Fatty Wang helped him explain.

"Oh, you mean those two. I know them."

"Really? Brother, take us to find them and I'll give you five dollars?"

As Fatty Wang said this, he went to take out Big Gold Tooth's wallet.

"Hey, what's going on? Why are you taking my wallet?"

"Nonsense, whose wallet should I take if not yours? I don't have a wallet."

The fat guy is so cunning.

He has money, but no wallet.

There is money hidden everywhere on his body.

It means there is no wallet in the trouser pocket and no money in the trouser pocket.

You can't go out without money.

Afraid of being stolen.

Fatty Wang always puts it under the insoles of his shoes, or sews a pocket on his underwear... and so on.

Although Wang Kaixuan is quite opinionated and thoughtful when it comes to money.

But if he were to use it for other things, it would be a waste of his huge size.

Ma Dadan's little brother fooled Wang Kaixuan and Da Jin Ya with just a few words.

I followed him unsteadily to the yard of Ma Dadan's gang.

He was caught by someone who had planned it unintentionally.

Especially when Da Jin Ya saw that Ma Dadan Lao San had a homemade bomb hanging around his neck, he was so scared that he confessed everything.

"Brother, what should we do?"

The dazed third brother was eager to try and wanted to drag Da Jin Ya and Wang Pangzi to the valley of Qinling Mountains and blow them up.

Ma Dabing touched his bald head twice and rubbed it for a long time.

"You said you were tomb raiders?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Fatty and Hu are the most authentic tomb-grabbing lieutenants. Fatty, Fatty, come on, show them your tomb-grabbing talisman."

Although Wang Kaixuan was angry at Da Jin Ya's spinelessness, the situation was stronger than he was.

Moreover, when he heard Da Jin Ya praising him and Lao Hu at this time, he felt a little flattered.

Although his hands were handcuffed, he still raised his neck.

"Then let him take us to the tomb."

There are many treasures under the Qinling Mountains.

The tomb raider would not go to a place without treasure. Since they came here on the way and were scared away by him but did not run far, there must be a big tomb nearby.

How can I not get involved?
"No."

Da Jin Ya's face changed and he quickly stopped it by thinking quickly.

"Each of these tomb raiders has his own strengths. Master Hu and Master Fatty are partners. Only when they work together can they be successful. Brother, going into a tomb is a delicate job. You don't want to go down there and see the treasure, but not be able to come back, right?"

Ma Dare spat and said, "Go, find his brother, the one with the surname Hu."

He pulled the tomb-grabbing talisman off Fatty Wang's neck and asked his younger brother to take it to find Hu Bayi.

Wang Kaixuan and Da Jin Ya looked at each other and saw hope in each other's eyes.

I hope Hu Bayi has met Brother Su and the others.

In this way, both of them can be saved.

however……

They think too much.

Hu Bayi did see the tomb-grabbing talisman and recognized Fatty Wang.

And in an instant he realized that Wang Kaixuan was being held hostage.

Otherwise, with Fatty Wang's character.

First, he would come to see me personally instead of asking someone else to deliver a message.

Second, the fat man cares a lot about his identity as a tomb-grabbing lieutenant, and he never leaves his tomb-grabbing talisman even though he knows it is fake.

How can you pull it down and use it as a keepsake?

However, Hu Bayi pretended not to know and wanted to come prepared.

As a result, he was imprisoned after entering the yard.

no way.

Hu Bayi wanted to struggle, and he even planned to counterattack and rescue Fatty Wang and Da Jin Ya.

Let them see the style of the retired company commander.

As soon as I entered the yard, the barrel of a shotgun was pointed at the back of my head. I raised my head and looked around.

Five or six guns were pointed at him.

No matter how great your ability is, it will be useless.

Ma Dabing is not an easy person to get along with.

Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang and Da Jin Ya had no choice but to be taken to the vicinity of the Fish Bone Temple.

They had also wanted to find out what was going on in that place.

Just go straight there.

As for the reason, Hu Bayi will make it up.

His rhetoric was exactly the same as what Su Mu said on the boat.

How can there be a Fishbone Temple built not by the river?

They must be tomb robbers, coming for the large tomb nearby.

As for the entrance to the cemetery...

Hu Bayi said that there was no time for exploration.

Fatty Wang and Da Jin Ya were both afraid that Hu Bayi's words were too flimsy and difficult to convince people.

But Ma Dare and the others...

I actually believed it.

Haha, it’s so easy to fool.

"Brother, they are not trying to trick us, are they? They just made up a place to trick us brothers..."

Some younger brothers seem very smart.

It's just that my EQ is a bit low.

It is very frustrating to question the leader's way of doing things in public.

Snapped!
The guy who was speaking was slapped hard on the back of the head by Ma Dabing.

"I'm asking you to use your wisdom. You should think more when you encounter something. They found the place but didn't find the entrance. Isn't that simple? If they found the entrance, they would have gone down long ago. Why would they come to the city and wait for us to catch them?"

"Brother is wise."

"Brother's analysis is correct."

"Learn more from Big Brother. You don't use your brain all day long..."

"That's right, use more wisdom."

The horse was bold and triumphant.

Hu Bayi and the other two tried hard not to laugh.

The group set off in a mighty procession.

Hu Bayi and others were also lucky.

When Hu Bayi saw the Fishbone Temple from afar, he hadn't noticed anything yet.

But the closer you get to the Fishbone Temple, especially after entering the Fishbone Temple...

Hu Bayi suddenly discovered that the construction of this place and its surrounding environment were very consistent with a certain building described in the book of the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Art.

And if we follow the records in the book.

There is a cave entrance and exit, which should be behind the statue of Dragon King.

Hu Bayi just stopped for a short while and then headed straight over there.

Sure enough, they found the entrance.

There are obvious traces of the tunnel being dug with a Luoyang shovel.

In terms of size, shape and smoothness, it is a master.

"When you go down to the tomb, don't touch anything randomly. The more valuable the tomb is, the more powerful the anti-theft devices are."

Before Hu Bayi left, he emphasized it again to everyone.

Of course, Hu Bayi wanted to make Ma Dabing and the others understand that they should not move around after going down.

But Hu Bayi was overthinking after all.

They are a group of land thugs and the commanders who ordered Hu Bayi and others to do things.

How can you listen to the captives?
That's not what I mean.

It's useless for Hu Bayi to say that.

And Da Jin Ya and Wang Kaixuan.

It doesn't matter whether he says it or not.

When the critical moment comes, their tacit understanding, their cooperation, and even their choices will naturally come together.

Do not worry.

The group went down to the tomb.

Su Mu and Shirley Yang had just woken up from the guesthouse.

We went to have dinner on the corner building diagonally opposite the guesthouse.

Leisurely and not in a hurry at all.

I thought I just had to wait for Hu Bayi and the others to come over.

They had no idea that those people had been taken to the tomb.

Halfway through the meal, Su Mu heard someone on the first floor talking about yesterday's riot.

Some people also said that they saw them reconcile and went to the Qinling Mountains outside the county town together in the morning...

Su Mu finally reacted.

I thought of the local bald forces.

I remembered that among those who went to the tomb, there was Ma Dadan and his group.

"Shirley, eat quickly. After that we'll go outside the city and ask around."

"what happened?"

Shirley Young didn’t quite understand.

I was feeling relaxed and comfortable just now, but now I suddenly feel nervous.

She didn't understand.

"I heard people downstairs talking about three outsiders being taken out of the city by local thugs. I'm worried that those three outsiders are Hu Bayi and his gang..."

"what?"

Shirley Yang was shocked, but believed.

He ate two quick bites and quickly got up.

She is not the kind of good girl who would eat slowly in a critical moment.

Moreover, a friend’s personal safety is more important than anything else, let alone a meal.

The two returned to the guesthouse and completed the check-out procedures.

Before leaving, I was stopped in the yard by the old man from the next door.

It happened to be the interesting old man I met on the boat yesterday.

He was still wearing black sunglasses, speaking slowly and cheerfully.

The meaning of his opening mouth was very straightforward: "Miss, do you know an old friend of mine? His name is Partridge Whistle..."

This person is Blind Chen.

After leaving Pingshan, Blind Chen went to the tomb of King Xian in Yunnan and lost a pair of eyes.

He felt guilty towards his Xiangling brothers and dared not continue to exist as the leader of Xiangling.

He came to Shaanxi under an assumed name and lived in seclusion there.

Su Mu understood it and didn't think about it.

Shirley Yang was skeptical.

Until Blind Chen showed the token of the leader of Xiangling: the Little Divine Sword.

"Are you really Uncle Chen?"

"My grandfather passed away a few years ago, and I found it based on his notes."

"That's it. Your grandfather, Queqiao Shao, never found the Zhuchen Pearl in his lifetime and failed to remove the curse on his body. I don't think he could have survived until now... Alas."

When the two of them separated, Partridge Whistle was so depressed about the death of the old foreigner that he vomited blood.

Chen Yulou had seen that scene.

There are faint traces of gold in Partridge Whistle's blood.

Perhaps it was because he thought that his old friend was gone, and so were his subordinates, including Partridge Whistle's confidante...

"You leave the city and head northwest. You can find clues to reunite with your companions in the Fishbone Temple. This is what the hexagram indicates. Let this be my gift to my old friend."

Su Mu felt awe-inspiring in his heart.

This blind man Chen really is something.

He could actually analyze fortune-telling in great detail.

Moreover, Su Mu knew the original work.

I also watched a TV series and a movie.

I know this passage very well.

Blind Chen figured it out through divination without knowing anything.

He does have some skills.

Shirley Yang thanked him solemnly, and she and Su Mu left the guesthouse again. Just as Chen Yulou said, they went out of the west gate and headed straight to the southwest.

The Fishbone Temple is located in the valley of the Qinling Mountains.

Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan and Da Jin Ya have already encountered a huge ghost face hiding in a hole above their heads.

Only later did I realize that it was not a human face or a ghost face.

It's the spider's back.

It's not just spiders.

It was because of a small piece of uranium mine that the spiders were infected with radiation. After the mutation, the spiders were larger than calves.

A group of people fled in all directions.

Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan and Da Jin Ya ran away from Ma Dabing and his group who were threatening them with guns. (End of this chapter)
