The snowman woke up.
The weight of more than three hundred catties is also a species with natural supernatural power. It is lying on the ground and fighting with the vines that bind its hands and feet.
Zhou Lingshi is also an old hunter, he is thoughtful, the vines are fresh, the head and feet are tough, and if they are tied up in eight ways, they are completely tied up.
As a result of the snowman's struggle, the joints of the snowman's body were rattling, and the eight vines on the wrist were suddenly broken by it.
The broken one was caused by Zhou Lingshi when he tied the snowman.
The eight finger-thick vines are tightened together, but it doesn't hurt, the pressure is not enough.
This is the only thing that really strangles people, and even tighter, it really eats flesh and bones.
It was this vine that broke as soon as the Snowman woke up.
Immediately afterwards, there was also a vine on the ankle, which was broken by the snowman.
After breaking off these two vines, the restraints on the other hands and feet were made by several vines.
It is easy to break a chopstick, but it is difficult to break a chopstick.
So the snowman had nothing to do. He struggled a bit and found that he was motionless, so he lay on the ground panting heavily.
Lin Shuo and others were on the sidelines, watching the snowman busy.
Realizing that this thing was done, Lin Shuo looked at Zhang Jin and asked Cao Yusheng, "Fourth uncle, do you think this snowman is a beast or a human?"
"It's both a beast and a human."
"Zhang Jin is a big stutterer when it comes to people, but a little talker when it comes to beasts. How about we guess if he can communicate with the snowman."
"What are you betting on?" Cao Yusheng unfolded his folding fan, as if he was in high spirits.
"Bright things." Lin Shuo said.
"What to light up, and how to do it?"
"My chasing master has a hidden compartment in the middle, and there are three things in it. If you win, I will take it out for everyone to see. If I win, let us know what is at the bottom of your box. Open your eyes." Lin Shuo said, "Anyway, this trip, whether it's my secret compartment or your box, the things inside can't be hidden. Seeing the light in advance can be regarded as a heartbreak for these juniors. end."
"Okay, since the leader has this elegance, I will accompany you." Cao Yusheng smiled, "Let's guess first."
"You are an elder, please first."
"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Cao Yusheng said with a smile, shaking his folding fan, "I guess Patriarch Zhang is the talker first, and then stutters."
"I've left it all to you, what else can I say?" Lin Shuo rubbed his nose, feeling a little helpless, "Forget me as a loser."
"Hehe, don't rush to admit defeat, let's see if this is the case." Cao Yusheng said, and then pointed at Zhang Jin with the folding fan in his hand, "Patriarch Zhang, can you let me see your Zhang family's unique skills in animal language? ?”
While the leader and the conspirators were talking, Zhang Jin was having fun.
The young man thought to himself, in this kind of thing, it is not up to me to decide who wins and who loses.
To people, he was really speechless, this was the root cause of Da Xiaoluo's illness, and Zhang Jin actually didn't count on this matter.
But as long as he is not a human being, he has no psychological burden at all, and there is nothing wrong with saying what he wants to say.
If you want to stutter and pretend to be a chatterbox, you can't do that.
But the reverse is easy.
So the outcome of this bet between Uncle and Uncle is actually at Zhang Jin's discretion.
It depends on whether Zhang Jin is more interested in the things hidden in Master Zhui's dark cell, or the things in the wooden box of Patriarch Cao.
Of course it is the latter.
Zhang Jin knew about Lin Shuo's pursuit of the things in his master's dark cell.
One of them is the Tang knife of his Zhang family.
My late father had said beforehand that he had to receive Lin Shuo's sword three times before he could invite his own Tang sword back.
Zhang Jin has been unable to do this.
In the beginning, the young man was quite energetic, his mind kept wandering around this matter, and he practiced hard day and night.
But now, as Zhang Jin gets to know more about Lin Shuo's strength, Zhang Jin finds out about it, so let it be.
Anyway, my uncle usually looks fierce, but his heart is soft. When he really wants to use two knives, he will definitely think of a reason to lend them to him.
After knowing Lin Shuo's temper and what Lin Shuo was hiding behind his back, Zhang Jin was no longer interested.
But Cao Yusheng's wooden box, there is no mystery.
This is the method used by the hunter of the Cao family to suppress the bottom of the box.
Zhang Jin made up his mind, walked up to the snowman, and first looked at the snowman lying on the ground.
The snowmen broke the two vines on their hands and feet just now, and now they are a little tired, and they seem to have resigned themselves to their fate. They took a breath and closed their eyes to rest their minds.
Zhang Jin lightly touched the snowman's waist with his toes, and the snowman opened his eyes.
As soon as the eyes opened, Zhang Jin was stunned for a moment.
Before, it was either in the dark of the crypt, or the thing had its eyes closed. When it was struggling just now, Zhang Jin only paid attention to the movements of its hands and feet.
Zhang Jin had never looked directly at the eyes of this thing.
Now a pair of eyes, oh, these eyes are definitely not human eyes.
When he first opened his eyes, the pupils were round and very big, covering the entire eyeball.
Then, as soon as he felt the bright light around him, his pupils quickly became smaller, like the tip of a needle.
This kind of pupil contraction rate is simply not achievable by humans.
This pupil is jet black, while the pupil next to it is amber yellow.
This is a pair of tiger eyes.
The word "tiger eyes wide open" is perfectly suitable for the snowman at the moment.
With such a pair of eyes, Zhang Jin subconsciously said a word: "You draw well."
After the words had been spoken, the young man remembered, quickly covered his mouth, and turned to look at his uncle.
Lin Shuo shook his head there, feeling helpless, and pointed at Zhang Jin, which meant that you couldn't handle this matter well.
Zhang Jin looked back, thinking that I wanted to be upbeat, and I must say the following words smoothly.
Because Cao Yusheng said that he was able to speak first, and then stuttered.
As long as you don't stutter.
The snowman is not a human being, so this matter is actually easy to handle.
Then look into the snowman's eyes again.
Zhang Jin was stunned again, his mind froze when he opened his mouth.
Looking at the snowman's eyes before, because the eye structure of this thing is different from that of a human, so Zhang Jin has a judgment that this thing is not human.
But one more glance, and eye contact comes.
These are human eyes, looking at Zhang Jin.
In the animal world, as long as it is not human, it will never look at human beings. This is a common situation.
It’s not about being afraid of people, but because both predators and prey in the animal kingdom will avoid looking at each other, because it means finding and noticing each other, which is a survival risk.
Even if it is a human being, looking at each other for a long time is not comfortable, it is an offense.
Demonstrating by looking at each other is a behavior unique to human beings.
At this moment, the snowman was looking at Zhang Jin, staring at Zhang Jin intently.
All of a sudden, Zhang Jin thought that this thing was a human being.
So he stuttered.
Seeing Zhang Jin come back dejectedly, Lin Shuo had nothing to do.
In fact, he also knew that things would turn out like this, because when Snowman was struggling just now, his eyes were on Lin Shuo.
Because this thing remembers that it was Lin Shuo who captured it.
Still not convinced, the thing stared at Lin Shuo for a while.
Apparently Cao Yusheng also observed it from the sidelines, so he would accept the bet and talk about it first.
Admit the bet and admit defeat, what else can I do
Lin Shuo took the chasing master who was standing on one side, and patted the camera bracket on Gong's body, revealing a hidden compartment first.
No surprises, the first item is Zhang Family Tang Dao.
Lin Shuo accepted Zhang Lianhai's last words and made an agreement with Zhang Jin about the knife. Everyone present except Zhou Lingshi and Mao Dahai knew about it.
Lin Shuo didn't bother to introduce, took out the knife and put it aside.
Then take a second frame, revealing another hidden grid.
Lin Shuo stretched out his hand and took out the thing. It was a square iron brick, originally fixed in the dark compartment.
"This thing is called the Qiankun Brick, and it has two functions." Lin Shuo introduced, "One is the counterweight. The two ends of the chasing master are empty. When shooting an arrow, there is no pressure in the middle. It is difficult to hold the balance and it is easy to shake at both ends. With this piece of Qiankun brick pressed down, it will be stable. When Mr. Zhui swings it up, it is actually a hammer, and it has to be heavy at both ends, so this iron brick will be unloaded.
Then this Qiankun Brick has a second use. After all, it is an iron brick weighing more than two hundred catties, so it still hurts to throw it out and hit people. This is also the hidden weapon of our Lin family. "
"Your father liked to use this thing back then." Cao Yusheng said leisurely at this moment, "But he didn't like to throw the iron bricks out, but smashed them with his hands.
In his words, no matter how high the martial arts are, they will fall down with one brick.
In the past, when we were young, it was okay to do this. Later, he became the leader and liked to play like this.
I advised him that he is a dignified leader, with such a high status, don't act like a hooligan.
As a result, he didn't listen.
Then I thought about it, and it actually made sense.
The work in the hands of the Lin family draws on the strengths of other families, but they are all equipment skills, and they must have something in their hands when they do it.
With his ability, if he hits someone with the chasing master, he will die if he hits him, and he will not be able to survive.
If this iron brick was thrown out according to the Lin family's method, it would be a one-shot deal, and the other party's life and death were at stake.
But if you hold the iron bricks in your hands and swing them around, there is room for it.
Miao Tiangong, the head of the contemporary Miao family, had his leg broken by this brick.
If your father had used Chaser or used iron bricks as a hidden weapon, then the head of the Miao family would be someone else.
So this brick, although it doesn't look very good, is the mercy of the leader of the hunting gate.
nice one. "
Lin Shuo nodded after hearing this, and took the Qiankun Brick back.
Lin Shuo hesitated for a moment on the camera bracket for the third hidden space on Zhui Yegong's body, but still took the picture.
The dark compartment was exposed, and inside was a pocket watch.
When Anne saw the watch, she immediately remembered it.
Lin Shuo showed her this watch when she was in the underground cave in the Outer Xing'an Mountains.
The watch itself was broken long ago, and water had gotten into the dial.
The key is that there is a photo of Lin Shuo's mother on the back of the watch cover.
At this moment, Lin Shuo took out the watch and handed it to Cao Yusheng instead of giving it to anyone else.
As soon as Cao Yusheng saw the watch, the corners of his mouth began to tremble, and the sockets of his eyes turned red.
He stretched out his hand and took the watch, with a forced smile on his face: "This watch was a congratulatory gift from me when your parents got married."
While speaking, Cao Yusheng opened the cover of the watch and saw the situation inside, the corner of his mouth twitched: "This sloppy guy, he didn't keep it well."
Then he turned the watch in his hand, and finally saw the photo on the cover of the watch.
Cao Yusheng was stunned for a moment, and the tears that had been put away burst out gushing out.
The old hunter sniffed quickly, wiped his face quickly, and handed the watch to Lin Shuo: "Keep it safe."
Lin Shuo took the watch and put it in the dark compartment.
The nephew and uncle were each in a daze for a while, and Cao Yusheng was the first to come back to his senses: "Boss, this matter cannot be rushed, let's deal with the immediate matter."
Lin Shuo nodded and said, "It seems that Zhang Jin's animal language can't communicate with this snowman. Master, what can you do next?"
"Crypt, we can't enter for the time being, we need more information now." Cao Yusheng pondered, "Boss, I was reminded when I met this snowman today.
In fact, we have always subconsciously felt that no matter how smart the white-headed flying corpse is, it is not a human being. It does things and commits crimes based on biological instinct.
But look at this snowman, is it still a beast? Does it do things just by instinct
Obviously not, it is rational thinking.
White-headed flying corpse, isn't it the same
Let's go back and think about why.
Why did the wingless flying corpse kill the people in that village and the convoy
If the beasts acted randomly by instinct, it would be really difficult to find the pattern.
But if the wingless flying corpse does these two things for a rational purpose, then there must be rules to follow.
The villagers of that village must have something in common with that convoy, which harmed some kind of interest of the wingless flying corpse, which led to the murder. "
"Oh, you are indeed the mastermind. The analysis really makes it look like that." Wei Xingshan had just experienced a brainstorm before, and was tortured by Cao Yusheng to the point of death. Now he regained his energy, "But uncle, These two groups of people, one group is the Brahmins, which is the most noble caste here, and the other group is the untouchables, the lowest group of people.
Looking at their victim locations, one is at the foot of the Himalayas, and the other is far away on the border between Nepal and India. The difference between the two places is more than a hundred kilometers.
How can this be similar? "
"Wei Xingshan, the weather has cleared and the rain has stopped, and you think you can do it again." Cao Yusheng smiled, "Then what should I do if I find out?"
Looking at Cao Yusheng's expression, Wei Xingshan felt a little guilty, and he took a peek at Lin Shuo.
It turned out that Lin Shuo ignored him at all, and didn't give any hints.
"I'm sorry to disturb you." Wei Xingshan quickly confessed, "Go on."
"What do the people in that village at the foot of the Himalayas do for a living?" Cao Yusheng asked back.
"Carry your husband, carry things up the mountain." Wei Xingshan replied.
"Back for whom?"
"Tourists."
"Where is the favorite place for tourists here?"
"This... of course is the highest peak in the world, Mount Everest."
"Okay, Mount Everest. So where did the Brahmin convoy start?"
Wei Xingshan scratched his head: "I seem to have heard that Indian diplomat said that this is a group of tourists who came back from Mount Everest. Hey!"
Wei Xingshan's eyes lit up, and he was about to say something when he was interrupted by a gesture from Cao Yusheng:
"It's not over yet, let me ask you again, where did the mountaineering team who climbed from the north slope of Mount Everest die?"
"Mount Everest."
"As I said just now, I have that oil painting in my home, and there is a creamy seal on the bottom. Where is the painting?"
"Mount Everest."
"I told you before that intelligence must be viewed in a comprehensive way. Now several clues, no matter how far or near, all point to the same place?"
"yes."
"Then go and have a look first." Cao Yusheng spread out his folding fan and looked at Lin Shuo beside him, "What do you mean, chief?"
"You've said it all, what else can I say?" Lin Shuo spread his hands.
