Raising Gu Notes

(Chapter 1 to.)

The old lady Xi and the others were already in tears, and Anon was sobbing even more. She kept shaking her head with a sad face. Looking at Ayun next to her, with a pleading expression on her face, she softly called her sister, and Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan also had tears in their eyes, but everyone still held back and did not dare to take it easy. Interrupt the blind man.

It's just that after hearing Ye Xia's words, everyone couldn't help being overjoyed, they couldn't keep silent anymore, and all exclaimed.Anon grabbed Xie Lin's arm even more, with an excited expression on his face: "Can you save my elder brother?"

Ye Xia smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I can try."

"Try?" Anon stayed there, turned to look at the blind man, then at A Luo and Mrs. Xi.And old lady Xi and A Luo also had a look of disappointment on their faces.

Only the blind man, the expression of joy on his face became stronger: "When did Brother Xiaoye say such a big word? Now that we have talked about this, it seems that Brother Xiaoye is really sure."

But as he said that, his brows frowned again, and his face showed a look of worry, and then he smiled bitterly, "But old man, my vitality is almost completely cut off, and now half of my feet have entered the gate of hell. If I want to stay This old fate is against the sky, if Brother Xiaoye really saved the old man, I'm afraid you yourself..."

Ye Xia shook the blind man's hand again, interrupted the blind man's words, and said with a smile: "Brother Che, nothing is more important than being alive. Don't worry, rest well now."

The blind man froze slightly, then nodded, and then slowly closed his eyes.

Then Ye Xia carried the blind man on his back, Xie Lin carried Zhang Lang who was still in a coma on his back, Ba Xiaolan carried Smelly in his arms, and then, led by Mrs. Xi and the others, headed to the Black City.

Along the way, everyone didn't say much, just hurried on their way.

After walking for about half an hour, they finally came to Heicheng.

Heicheng is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and on the west side there is a three-meter-high stone city wall, stretching for several miles, like the Great Wall, majestic and majestic, but compared to the forest of watchtowers in the city, this city wall looks so different surprisingly.

Hundreds of watchtowers, large and small, have been erected on the boundary of several miles in front. Some watchtowers are built on flat ground, and some are built on the hillside. The surface of these watchtowers is black, or light black, or brown-black. There are four-cornered watchtowers, six-cornered watchtowers, octagonal watchtowers, ten-cornered watchtowers, twelve-cornered watchtowers, triangular watchtowers, five-cornered watchtowers, and even nine-cornered watchtowers. Diaolou and Thirteen Diaolou.

Generally speaking, it is easier to build watchtowers with even-numbered corners, so there are correspondingly fewer watchtowers with odd-numbered corners.

But after entering the Black City, both Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan were attracted by a huge watchtower directly in front of them.

The base of the watchtower is estimated to be hundreds of meters long, and its height is almost a hundred meters high. It is built at the foot of the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a huge castle or a huge black monster. He was standing at the foot of the mountain with his head held high, overlooking everything in Heicheng.

Even though they were thousands of meters away from the watchtower, the watchtower still gave Xie Lin and the others a sense of oppression, and the two couldn't help but feel a sense of insignificance.

The two were also very curious about how many corners this huge watchtower had, but they couldn't see the whole picture of the watchtower, so they didn't know how many corners the watchtower had.

Seeing that Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan were fascinated, Xiaoxing who was following them pointed to the watchtower and said, "That's my house."

Xie Lin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your house is really big." He couldn't help but took the opportunity to ask Xiaoxing how many corners the watchtower had.

Xiaoxing told Xie Lin and the others that it was a [-]-cornered watchtower, and it was also the largest watchtower in the black city.

After hearing Xiaoxing's introduction, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan couldn't help being very surprised, especially Ba Xiaolan, who was even more speechless.

The more corners there are in the watchtower, the more difficult it is to build. In Danba County, the hometown of thousands of watchtowers, it is said that the largest watchtower is only the thirteen-cornered watchtower.Of course, it is said that among the old local Qiang and Tibetan tribes, thirteen is an auspicious number, so it is also very auspicious to build a watchtower with [-] corners, and the [-]-corner watchtower was also built by a leader of the Qiang and Tibetan tribes at that time.

And the watchtower in front of them was actually [-] corners, no matter in terms of height, volume, or difficulty of construction, it was much higher than the legendary thirteen corners watchtower. Ba Xiaolan was a little surprised that such a building existed in the world.

Xie Lin was a little curious, whether steel bars were used in the construction of this watchtower. Obviously, this watchtower should not be built in modern times, and it is very likely that no steel bars will be used. Xie Lin couldn't help but worry a little about whether the watchtower was built. firm.Of course, this black city is located in a canyon, surrounded by mountains on three sides, so there shouldn't be too much wind.

But such thoughts, Xie Lin is also fleeting, and he also knows that he is completely thinking too much.

Xiaoxing told Xie Lin and the others that a volcanic eruption occurred here more than a hundred years ago, and the sixteen-corner watchtower was built after the volcanic eruption.Legend has it that a long time ago, there was an evil dragon doing evil here and there. Later, it was suppressed by the gods in the sky and locked underground. I didn’t want the evil dragon to suck the magma in the ground every day, and it became stronger day by day. Finally, it broke free from the blockage, drilled out of the ground, and became the incarnation of the dragon. A fire dragon is evil, and the volcanic eruption was caused by the evil dragon. Later, it is said that to suppress the fire dragon, people built a huge sixteen-corner watchtower here, and after the sixteen-corner watchtower was built , there have been no volcanic eruptions or earthquakes.

But after hearing what Xiaoxing said, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan felt weird. They also knew that the volcanic eruption was artificially caused by the flower emperor, and the theory of the evil dragon was just a rumor or a saying It's just a fabrication.

And Ayun also pulled Xiaoxing's sleeve, and said: "Where are the dragons, they are all made up by people."

Xiaoxing pouted, and said disapprovingly: "Sister, that's not necessarily true. I heard that the volcanic eruption was actually caused by man. There are such rumors here, and they are not necessarily all false. .”

Hearing what Xiaoxing said, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan couldn't help being a little surprised, but they also remembered something.

At that time, Xiao Xing came with A Yun, and after listening to Xin Shen's words, he seemed to want to deceive Xiao Xing, but Xiao Xing seemed to know everything.

And Wu Liang said that the volcanic eruption that year was actually caused by Huadi, and Xiaoxing was not there at the time, but now listening to Xiaoxing's words, she seems to know.

Ah Yun, on the other hand, looked puzzled, and asked Xiao Xing where he heard that the volcanic eruption was caused by man.

Looking back now, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a little strange, and couldn't help but ask Xiaoxing how he knew this.

After listening to Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan's question, Xiaoxing showed a smug look on her face. She told Xie Lin and the others that she had been following Xie Lin and the others all along, and she was also aware of what happened to Xie Lin and the others along the way.

Both Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan couldn't help but be amazed.

Xiaoxing explained that when she met Xie Lin and the others and left, she soon met the blind man, and then she and the blind man followed Xie Lin and the others.

Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan were even more surprised, and asked Xiaoxing why she and the blind slave hadn't come out since they had been following them.

Xiao Xing pointed to the blind man, saying that this was all the blind man's idea.

After listening to what Xiaoxing said, Xie Lin and the others finally knew what happened.

In fact, when Xiaoxing met Xie Lin and the others, after hearing what Xie Lin and the others said, she knew that Xie Lin and the others came to look for A Yun, but she didn't know why Xie Lin and the others came to A Yun, so She didn't say that Ayun was her sister Ayina.

Later, when she was about to leave, she quietly went back to tell Ayun, but in the end she met a blind man.

The blind man directly told Xiaoxing about his and Xie Lin's origins, and gained Xiaoxing's trust.Xiaoxing originally wanted to come out to meet Xie Lin and the others, and told Xie Lin that the Ayun they were looking for was her sister Ayina, and was going to take Xie Lin and the others to meet Ayun, but was stopped by the blind man.

At that time, Xiaoxing was also puzzled. It was not until the blind man explained to her that she understood the blind man's intention.

It turned out that the blind man had not left at that time, but just hid in a dark place.

As Xin Can said, in fact, the blind man knew for a long time that it was Xin Can who designed to frame him back then, and Xin Can's biggest purpose was to win the jade dragon, so the blind man pretended to leave, but secretly hid the jade dragon in Xie Lin in the bag.

He has even noticed that Xin Shen has colluded with outsiders in order to achieve his goals. Although the blind man is not very clear about what kind of helper Xin Shen found, he also knows that the helper Xin Shen is looking for will definitely not be What an idle person, and he felt that it would be difficult to deal with Xin Can and Wu Liang alone, so he thought of a plan and hid in the dark.

On the one hand, Xin Shen's target is the blind slave, so if the blind slave hides, Xie Lin and the others will feel less pressure. On the other hand, Xin Shen doesn't know where the blind slave is or what the blind slave is doing. Because he was worried that the blind man would abandon Xie Lin and the others and go directly to Heicheng, he had to focus part of his attention on Heicheng.In addition, Xin Can was also very afraid of the blind slave, so along the way, Xin Can didn't show up for a long time, and he didn't dare to attack Xie Lin and the others easily, because he was afraid that the blind slave might have some traps waiting for him.

Xin Shen has a cunning and sinister personality, but often such people are also very suspicious, fearing that they will be plotted against by others. The blind man actually knows the character of his own brother very well.

In addition, when Mrs. Xi and Xie Lin walked together later, Xin Shen was even more afraid.

Until later, seeing Wu Liang controlled Xie Lin and forced Mrs. Xi to separate from Xie Lin, in order to save Mrs. Xi, the blind man also had to show up.
