Spnstyle new notice, today and tomorrow due to accidents, I have no time to surf the Internet for a whole day, and it will be completely fixed the day after tomorrow. I will restore the update first, and move the server to ensure that the data on both sides is synchronized. 2013930

Spn has been running around nervously all day, and everyone's physical strength has long been exhausted. In addition, almost everyone has suffered injuries of various sizes, and the loss of blood has made this consumption even worse.In fact, everyone was so hungry that their chests were stuck to their backs, but because there was really nothing to eat, they could only bear it secretly.Hearing my shout at this moment, everyone suddenly realized that they rushed to the copper tripod to find food, and there was a commotion in the camp.

Yan Daojie and I cut the rope with knives and removed all the backpacks from the copper tripod.After careful selection, we threw the seven backpacks full of stones aside, and returned to the campfire with the three backpacks that remained the same, and began to search meticulously with trepidation.Fortunately, God really treated us kindly. In the first two backpacks, there were several packs of compressed biscuits that were still within the expiration date, and even a few cans of edible cans were found.This result made everyone smile and happy.However, Yan Daojie couldn't laugh at this moment, instead he squatted aside and sighed depressedly.

Holding the canned beef in a strong package, he turned his head to look at the wriggling white meat worms on the bark, and shouted annoyedly: "Grandma! If I knew there was canned food, who the hell is sick? Eat worms." Damn it! I'll make you chicken! I'll make you crunchy!"

Yan Daojie stomped on the bark angrily, crushing the pile of worms that were said to have four times the nutrition of the can in his hand, venting the depression stuck in his esophagus.

"Third brother, why did you trample them to pieces! Didn't you say that this stuff is more nutritious than beef..."[

"Hey? What is this? Big wood, come and see!"

Xiaoqian's shout interrupted my teasing of Yan Daojie, everyone hurriedly gathered to see what she took out from the third backpack.It was a silver-white metal box, rectangular in shape as a whole.The top cover of the box has been opened, and the inner waterproof sealing cover has also been removed by Xiaoqian.A bunch of long white objects were neatly placed in the box, and each object was covered with a thick layer of translucent film.

Xiaoqian reached out and took out one, and carefully unfolded the translucent film slowly.A snow-white flake of stone suddenly appeared in the eyes of everyone, and under the illumination of the fire, it continuously glowed with a soft light.I reached out and asked for the stone flake to have a look. The stone flake was a flat rectangle with a thickness of about one centimeter.The overall length is about [-] centimeters, and the width is almost an inch. At first glance, it looks very much like a ruler.

Its head and tail ends are smooth and round, and on both sides are two shallow grooves full of uneven teeth, very much like some kind of buckle for assembling.The two largest planes of the stone flakes have been carefully polished, and the touch is as soft and tender as a woman's skin.Some seal characters with complex strokes are neatly engraved on one side in the vertical arrangement of ancient Chinese characters, while many irregular lines are carved on the opposite side.

"This thing..." Yan Daojie took out a piece of stone from the box and peeled off the sealing film, held it in his hand and rubbed it carefully for a long time, then raised his eyebrows and said with a grin: "Grandma's! It's time to send it! Anyway, we didn't run in vain this time! This is the best suet jade! Hahaha..."

Suet white jade... Engraved stone flakes... A side slot that looks like a buckle... Why does this thing seem familiar?

"Why do I feel that this thing is very familiar?" Ruan Yu kept looking at it while holding a piece of stone, frowning and thinking.

"Third brother, do you think this is suet jade?" Xiaoqian counted the numerous coated stone flakes in the box, looked up at me suddenly and said, "Big wood, do you think this thing is..."

"Yu Jian!" Ruan Yu and I said in unison what Xiaoqian was about to say.

After we finished speaking, the three of us looked at each other and nodded, confirming the unusually unified answer.Yan Daojie looked at us blankly, flipped through the stone and said, "What kind of thing? What kind of sword? This thing doesn't have a point?"

Xiaoqian reached out for the stone flake in his hand, picked up the scattered film and carefully rolled it up, saying: "It's not a sword! It's a 'Jade Slip'! The 'Eastern Han Jade Slip' that the professor said! What are you talking about? memory"!"

"Ah? Can't it? Isn't this thing in the British research institute? No one would be such an idiot to bring out such a valuable antique for archaeology, right? It's too stupid..."

"It's really possible. Maybe they have something to compare on the spot? Sometimes the archaeological process needs this. However, it is very troublesome to carry antiquities. Unless there are special needs that must be carried, otherwise they will use extension Prints or photos..." Xiaoqian rewrapped all the stone flakes and put them back into the box, then took her backpack and continued to search.

"Maybe Qiao Yu and the others have a reason to bring it. After all, Mr. Mo just briefly described the whole story to us, and the details are not exhaustive. This thing came from Qiao Yu's backpack, and it looks very similar to Mo. According to the old description, I think it is probably the 'Jade Bamboo Slips of the Eastern Han Dynasty'!"

As soon as I finished speaking, Xiaoqian took out a dripping aluminum folder from her backpack.After flipping through a few pages, she said regretfully, "Here is a printout of the map of the ancient city at the bottom of the lake, which is the same as the one on the plank road! There is also a codebook of the deciphering process... behind it is...another ancient city?! What a pity! It was soaked in water!"

Another ancient city?second city?

Professor Mo's distorted last words before his death jumped out of his mind instantly.Thinking of the "Original Spirit Society" conspiracy he mentioned, and the blood disciple Secretary Du who mysteriously disappeared holding the "Pisces Card", I felt a little blocked in my heart. Immediately, he was crushed by the clouds of suspicion in his heart.

I stretched out my hand, intending to take a look at the folder in Xiaoqian's hand, but I didn't expect her hand to hand over the file to freeze halfway in the air, and then let out a scream, dropped the folder to cover her heart, and curled up He fell to the ground in a ball.Her face was pale, cold sweat kept breaking out on her forehead, and she couldn't help crying out in pain.

I was terrified in my heart, and hurriedly took two steps forward to pick her up.Before I could figure out the cause of Xiaoqian's pain, Ruan Yu beside her groaned and fell to the ground covering her chest, biting her lips with her snow-white teeth, and said vaguely: "My heart hurts... my arm... …something is moving…”[

Something moves in the arm?Could it be that red meat worm is at work again?

I pulled Xiaoqian's arm up, and saw that the red line on the wrist really rose a little bit, and the area around the red line was also slightly blue.Putting down Xiaoqian, I picked up Ruan Yu and pulled her arm to look at it. The red line on her arm was exactly the same as Xiaoqian's. It was obviously the result of that kind of red monster.

Gritting my teeth, I drew out my short knife and cut my arm to feed them blood, in order to alleviate their pain.But Yan Daojie, who checked the situation of the two women, stopped me, and said in a deep voice: "Don't cut it, blood is useless! This situation is a 'gu breath', and we can only resist it. It won't be long, bear it It will pass in a while."

I slumped down the dagger, and hugged the second daughter tightly in my arms.Their miserable cries pierced my heart like several sharp swords, and instantly made my heart ache.The delicate body in front of my chest trembled constantly because of the pain, and the intensity almost shattered my soul.All kinds of resentment and all kinds of hatred filled my whole body for a while, making my chest feel like a rock, and I wanted to raise a knife to cut my chest open to relieve the depression in my heart.Fortunately, Yan Daojie's judgment was not wrong, the pain of the second daughter only lasted for a while and then stopped, which prevented me from being crushed to death by the oppression in my chest.

I wiped the sweat off their faces with distress, and asked softly, "How is it? Are you feeling better?"

Xiaoqian nodded, closed her eyes weakly and lay down in my arms to rest.Ruan Yu struggled to sit up, leaned against me and panted, "It doesn't hurt at all, it's just a little weak. This pain is very strange. It appeared suddenly and disappeared suddenly. There was no sign of it, and it disappeared without a trace. Traces, as if nothing happened..."

"Well! 'Gu Xi' is like this. It comes and goes, the time is short, and the pain is unbearable." Yan Daojie pulled the second girl's arm and examined it carefully.

"Third brother, what is the 'gu breath'? How to cure it? Also, what is the 'blood provocation' you mentioned? Why was it able to suppress the Gu worm in the first place, but now it is useless?"

Yan Daojie put down their arms, touched his head and thought for a while, and replied: "Gu breath is the attack state of being poisoned by Gu poison. Depending on the poison of Gu poison, the performance is also different. Blood provocation is also called provocation ceremony. Human beings have many mysterious powers, and blood is one of them. Since our ancestors, there have been many cases of using blood to fight evil or sacrifice. For example, the previous "livestock sacrifices" and "killing sacrifices" "Flag" or something, um, the kind of "Taoist priest biting his finger and drawing amulets with blood" in the movie is also a kind. Simply put, it is a witchcraft ritual using blood. Usually it is smeared Lord, when the situation is more serious, you can drink blood directly..."

"We are in a more serious situation? Why doesn't it work now? What should we do in the future?"

"Lao Qi, don't worry! Our situation is a bit special," Yan Daojie patted me on the shoulder, signaling me not to be impatient, "Based on their situation just now and the details you mentioned at the beginning, the Gu worms among the brothers and sisters It is most likely a long-lost ferocious bug—'bite'! According to my family's ancient books, this kind of bug is soft and red in color, and it can be divided into two like earthworms when it encounters a crisis. This is similar to what we see The situation is exactly the same! After being hit by this kind of Gu insect, the phenomenon of "Gu breath" will soon appear, and it will occur once every day at midnight and noon. This situation will last for fourteen days, and then it will become every day. The four time periods of mao and unitary will occur, and then it will become eight time periods, and finally it will occur at every hour, and this person will..."

"Third brother, the pain will increase? This kind of bug came out of Mo Lao's body, why didn't I see anything wrong with him..."

I stopped before I finished speaking.I suddenly remembered that when I went to see Professor Mo after the Xiaohu conflict, he seemed to have said that he was "a little uncomfortable in his heart".At that time, I thought it was just a common heart disease of all the elderly, could it be this kind of "gu breath"?its not right!Professor Mo was not as miserable as Ruan Yu and the others at the time...

"I don't know about this either. Maybe the person who cast the voodoo gave him some "drug" to suppress the attack. After all, voodoo techniques are often used to control people." Yan Daojie patted me and saw me After regaining his senses, he went on to say: "Our 'miasma-avoiding medicine' is somewhat effective, but it is not quite right, so the effect is not great. Later, Xiaoqian used her own blood as a 'protest', it must be The "medicine" was activated, and the "Insect Eater" felt threatened, otherwise it would not split into two. This kind of split is actually a way to save life, but the one that got into Xiaoqian's body is still controlled by your blood pressure. It’s too late, or it will be more troublesome! Where did the grandsons of the blood disciples get these ancient witchcrafts? These things have long been lost?!”

"Third brother, the key now is how to control this thing. Can I feed them blood once a day?"

"Probably not! Your blood can only suspend the attack, it can't relieve the pain, and it can't get rid of the root. Otherwise, these bugs would have died long ago, and they wouldn't make trouble at all. I guess your blood can at most make the original poison The time of death will be extended later..."

"Then they can only wait to die?!" Anger, heartache and an inexplicable force surged in my chest, and a touch of blood stained my eyes instantly.

Yan Daojie rubbed his head vigorously, gritted his teeth and said, "Of course we can't wait to die! Let's rush home as soon as possible, and after we get back, I will go to Grand Master and the others to find a way to save them no matter what! , I really have no choice but to rely on them to endure the pain during the 'gu breath' these days."

I turned my head to look at Ruan Yu, she leaned on my shoulder and forced a smile, then pressed her forehead against me, indicating that she could do it.Xiaoqian, who was lying on my lap, also sat up at this time, holding my hand vigorously, and there was a firmness in her almond eyes looking directly at me.

Looking at the strong second daughter in front of me, my heart was full of mixed feelings for a while, including distress for them and deep regret at what I could do.The resentment towards the bloody gangsters was like boiling molten steel, making my chest extremely hot, and the deadly threat hidden deep in the bodies of the two women was like ice in the twelfth lunar month. I can't help but linger between the heat alternation, and I suffer for a while...
