After I came out of the Detective's Hand, I naturally no longer need to be subject to the restriction of "not using firearms" by the Detective's Hand, so the equipment Dr. Bai got for us were all tailor-made for me and Ye Xun. They were small and exquisite but surprisingly powerful. .
For guns, I still choose Magnum. Ye Xun still refused to use the gun, so Dr. Bai changed him into two pairs of guns, and the arrows were also replaced with specially made arrowheads, which were naturally very powerful.
We must bring a knife, we must rely on it for close combat.
After I packed my bags, I looked worried at the serum and medicines that Dr. Bai had prepared for us. There are really too many of these things, just the snake venom serum alone made several.
Putting aside the fact that I can't remember how to use the serum for a while, what if we were really poisoned by snake venom? Would we still have time to lie down and infuse
I simply gritted my teeth and said, "Except for the hemostatic and wound medicine, I won't bring any of them. Bringing too much will be troublesome."
Dr. Bai objected: "How can you enter Miao territory without bringing antidotes?"
I gritted my teeth and said, "Just leave it to fate! I have a hard life."
"No!" Dr. Bai objected immediately, "Without the serum, you can't move forward..."
When I was about to explain, Douduzi opened the door and walked in: "They have me! I figured it out, I will go to the Miao border with you. Get me a set of equipment too."
I walked up and patted Dou Donzi on the shoulder: "Good brothers, we live and die together. There is no difficulty that we cannot overcome."
"I believe."
Douduzi only said three words and then stopped talking. He kept looking out the window with deep thoughts all the way. I don't know what he is thinking, but I can tell from his expression that Doudouzi has always been conflicted.
I handed Douduzi a cigarette: "That's how the world is, you have to gamble on everything you want, but the stakes are different. You are gambling on your future with your past."
Douduzi said faintly: "You are wrong. I am betting on reality with my dreams. If I lose, I will no longer be qualified to dream. Let me be quiet. I have to be in the best condition before the game starts."
I know that Doudouzi doesn’t want to stay in any state, but wants to dream for the last time.
Whether the dream is broken or comes true depends on the moment he wakes up and opens his eyes.
Following Mother Fox's instructions, I drove the car near Yaowang Valley, and then pushed Douduo awake with bloodshot eyes.
Doudouzi looked at the valley road winding up from the bottom of the mountain, sighed and said, "Follow me."
Yaowang Valley is not a rift valley that goes deep into the mountain, but a sloping valley that extends from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. In order to stabilize the valley, the people of Yaowanggumen built city walls along both sides of the valley road that penetrated the entire mountain. Standing on the city wall, you can have an unobstructed view toward the valley entrance. As an abandoned disciple of Yaowang Valley, Douduzi naturally cannot worship the mountain and enter, so he can only choose to go around.
Douduzi took us to a cave in the back mountain of Yaowang Valley before stopping. He carefully searched the cave with a flashlight for a long time before pointing to a bat hanging upside down on the edge of the cave and shouting: "This bat Still there! Still there... Cherry has not forgotten me."
Douduzi took a few steps forward, stepped on the mountain wall, jumped up, and made several palms in the air before catching the bat in his hand.
"Be careful!" I watched the bat reveal its fangs, but Doudouzi put his finger in front of the bat's eyes disapprovingly. The latter just sniffed Douduo's fingers a few times, then stuck out his tongue and licked his hand like a kitten.
"Be good... be good..." Doudouzi burst into tears for a moment, tremblingly tied a piece of paper to the bat's leg and let it go. The bat quickly disappeared into the night.
After the bat flew away, there was no movement outside. Doudouzi also circled in the cave with his hands behind his back: "What's going on? Why is there no movement yet?"
I comforted: "Just wait, maybe something will delay you."
"That's right... that's right..." Douduzi said "that's right", but there was no confidence in his voice.
When Ye Xun and I were also feeling guilty for a while, there was sudden movement outside the cave. A middle-aged man wearing a blue robe strode towards the cave entrance without any disguise: "Lu Yifei, do you still dare to come back?"
"Uncle Seventeenth!" Doudouzi trembled, "Where's the cherry?"
Uncle Seventeenth roared angrily: "Don't mention Cherry, you don't deserve to mention her! Get out of here right away!"
Doudushi suddenly panicked: "What's wrong with Cherry? Why doesn't she come to see me?"
The seventeenth master uncle roared: "I say it again, get out of here immediately, otherwise, you will be allowed to stay in Yaowang Valley. Half a quarter of an hour later, the patrol found you lingering near Yaowang Valley again, and they will kill you without mercy." "
After the seventeenth master uncle finished speaking, he turned around and left the cave entrance without even looking at Douduo. Douduzi sat slumped on the ground, and after a long time he waved his hands feebly and said: "Let's go, go wherever we come..."
"No!" I said solemnly, "We were deceived. There must be something going on in Yaowang Valley."
Douduzi said feebly: "Wang Huan, it's already this time, and you're still lying to me? I won't enter Yaowang Valley, let's go."
I grabbed Bean Donkey and said, "Are you stupid? Think about it for yourself, how long have you been away from Yaowang Valley? How come that bat has been waiting in the cave?"
In nature, bats have a long lifespan, and some species of bats can even live for more than thirty years. I don’t know if the bat guarding the cave is the first generation of messenger bat, but I know that bats are social animals and can easily gather together.
There is only one bat in this cave, which only proves that the nearby environment is not suitable for bats to survive. If no one fed it, this bat would have died long ago. The person who fed this bat spent more than ten years letting it wait here just to tell the donkey to "get out of here"? If that's the case, wouldn't it be easier to just kill the bat
I said quickly: "Think about it again, since your cherry told you to get out, shouldn't she tell you something else, or send you a letter to make you give up?"
The nickname "Donkey" is not without reason. His temper is that of a donkey. He is very stubborn and won't listen to anyone. Cherry knew his temper, but she still kept saying such a meaningless sentence. Did she want Doudu to leave, or did she want Doudu to die
Douduo's eyes regained a little sparkle: "Are you saying something happened to Cherry?"
I said seriously: "I'm not sure, but it's definitely not as simple as you think."
While I was talking to Doudu, Ye Xun suddenly said, "Did your seventeenth-level uncle's left leg get injured?"
"No..." Douduzi suddenly said, "What do you want to say?"
"Come here and look at the footprints on the ground." Ye Xun pointed to two footprints of different shades on the ground and said, "When he was at the entrance of the cave, he deliberately used Qinggong and left no footprints, but after he walked twenty or thirty steps, I can't hold on any longer. Look at the footprints on the ground to see if they are one deep and one shallow."
Douduzi changed his expression and said: "No, Uncle Seventeen's leg was not injured. Something happened in Yaowang Valley! Come with me..."
Douduzi jumped up, and Ye Xun and I followed him and ran towards the direction of Yaowang Valley.
Before we ran very far, we saw a figure lying in the grass. I stretched out my hand to hold Douduzi and signaled him not to move. I pulled out Mie Tian and carefully moved closer to the man.
The person in the grass is the Seventeenth Senior Uncle who just left. The opponent was lying face down in the grass motionless, looking as if he was lifeless. I walked around to the side of the body, inserted the knife under the body against the ground, and wanted to turn the body over and take a look. But before I had time to exert my strength, I saw a red line about the thickness of a noodle appear on the edge of the Mie Tian Blade.
When the red line climbed on the blade and rushed towards the long sword guard, it turned into a dull golden color, and in an instant it merged with the color of the Mie Tian blade. If I hadn't seen that red line appear just now, I would never have thought that something was coming towards my hand.
At the critical moment, the true energy in my body also surged out towards the blade. As the blade of Mi Tian's blade shook violently with the true energy, a thick golden line also stood up on the blade, and I stood half-grasping the blade. in the air.
Just when I was about to get angry again, Douduzi suddenly took out a piece of iron tweezers, clamped the top of the thick wire, and pulled it out. The "thick thread" was wrapped around the tweezers several times under the severe pain, curling up and twisting like a dying insect.
But Donkey shouted in a hoarse voice: "Turn the body over, quick!"
Ye Xun and I picked up the corpse with our knives at the same time. After turning the corpse half a circle with our strength, the Taoist robe that originally covered the corpse collapsed into a deep pit along the ribs of the corpse - the internal organs of the corpse were empty. The person who was talking to us just now was probably just a corpse, and it was the large Taoist robe that covered his empty abdominal cavity.
Ye Xun was about to cut open the other party's clothes with a knife to see what was going on, when Douduzi shouted urgently: "Don't move! Let me do it."
Douduzi took out a pill from his body, held it on his fingertips and flicked it onto the body. The mere contact of the pill with the body caused a light blue fire. The nearly foot-high flames spread all over the body in an instant, and in the blink of an eye a human-shaped fireball burned out in the grass.
Doudouzi stared at the corpse, but I quickly took a look at Doudouzi's hand by the firelight - there was no "thick line" on the thing he held with the tweezers, it was clearly a translucent centipede.
I have been living in the Northeast. Although centipedes can be seen in the wild, the size of centipedes cannot be compared with their counterparts in the south. They are not only short, but also pitifully thin. The centipede in Douduzi's hand is somewhat similar to the insects native to the Northeast, but I have never heard that centipedes can change color.
If I didn't have the inner strength, the centipede might run somewhere along the blade.
Just when I was feeling scared, a ghostly cry suddenly came from the direction of the corpse. When I looked back, a ferocious snake shadow had erected among the blazing fire. At first glance, it looked like a green snake had penetrated the belly of a dead man, standing in the fire and roaring at us.
