The water in the underground estuary is quite deep, but once it enters the seven or eight meter wide underground river, the water becomes shallow.
At least with the height of He Yongchang, he walked with his feet standing on the bottom of the water, and his neck could be exposed to the surface of the river.
The current of this river is very fast, and now the three of them are going upstream, the efficiency of swimming is too low, it is better to walk directly on the bottom of the river.
It's just that the exhaustion of physical strength is completely different from the previous walk on the shore.
At this time, Miao Xueping stepped on He Yongchang's shoulders with both feet, and let He Yongchang walk on his back.
This is actually helping He Yongchang to save energy. He gained a little weight, which offsets part of the buoyancy, so that he can take root under his feet.
Of course, Miao Xueping is alone, and this weight is still not enough.
So Lin Shuo also stood on the other shoulder of the Patriarch of the He family.
He Yongchang is now regarded as an underwater mount, but the Patriarch of the He family has no complaints, and is still a little proud of himself.
At this moment, Miao Xueping is on the right shoulder, and Lin Shuo is on the left shoulder. There are three inheritances of Liemen, and there are big hunters at the end of the two paths on his shoulders. This is called carrying the sun and the moon on his shoulders.
Miao Xueping said at this time: "Son, what exactly is that thing Yongchang saw just now?"
"It's easy to guess what it is, because the fiery red fur has a smell of Glauber's salt." Lin Shuo replied.
"Grass salt? Has it been nitrated?"
"Yeah." Lin Shuo laughed, "So I said I've been dead for a long time, and the fur on my body is familiar."
"Oh, I got it." Miao Xueping nodded, "So you said that you are resurrecting a dead body, but you are actually wearing a fur cloak by yourself."
"Yes, that's what it means."
"Hey! Boss, you are so scary, it's not kind!" He Yongchang protested from below, "Can this be called resurrection with a dead body?"
"So it depends on how you understand it." Lin Shuo said, "If it wasn't for my nose smelling it and just looking at it, no one would think that it was actually a person, but a thing with fiery red fur. Then this is not What is resurrection from a dead body? Fur is also a part of the dead body."
"So this person wearing fur is very likely to be the '玃ru' that Ma Yixian called." Miao Xueping said, "The Lu Shu, Sly, and Hujiao we killed one after another before were controlled by this person."
"That's right." Lin Shuo nodded.
"Then who is this person?" He Yongchang asked.
"Who else could it be?" Lin Shuo said, "This is really a long-lived couple."
"Yun Yulan?"
"En." Lin Shuo responded, and added, "It can only be her. Ma Yixian is capable, and she has no reason not to. So Ma Yixian can live so long, and she can live so long."
"But she is Ma Yixian's wife, how could Ma Yixian say that it is a 'Xingru'?" He Yongchang asked, "Did the old couple quarrel?"
"It's also possible that he was ill, so he forgot." Miao Xueping sighed.
"Then why did Yun Yulan become like this?" He Yongchang asked again, "Why do you run to the ground without people and ghosts? Is this a madness?"
"Then I don't know." Lin Shuo said, "So I have to catch up and ask."
"Small." Miao Xueping said, "If it's really Yun Yulan, we have to be careful.
As far as I know, when this Yun Yulan retired to the mountains, he was already a top figure in the four realms of the Yun family.
Her talent should not be as good as your mother's, but this kind of thousand-year-old tortoise has lived a long life, and no one knows what level she has reached now. "
…
The three of them were talking, and He Yongchang carried the two of them without stopping, walking for more than half an hour without knowing it.
There is another fork ahead, one is a river, the other is a hole, the slope is going up.
This cave entrance should also be a river channel, but the water flow is still very small at the moment, so a thin layer is laid on the bottom, and what flows into this river is a trickle.
Lin Shuo followed the scent all the way, let He Yongchang turn into this fork, and then jumped off He Yongchang's shoulder, and continued to lead the way.
In Lin Shuo's mind now, the Shennongjia matter, the information collected here, has basically come to light.
In this He family hunting ground, the He family members are just managers and external service personnel who have become shareholders.
The actual founder of the He Family Hunting Farm, as well as the main maintainer on weekdays, is actually Ma Yixian.
Ma Yixian suffers from Alzheimer's disease, one is that it directly leads to the loss of control of the hunting ground, and the other is that he has forgotten the real situation of Yun Yulan, the founder of another hunting ground.
He even developed hysteria towards Yun Yulan, thinking she was "Xian Ru", and wanted to get rid of her quickly.
And Yun Yulan herself is also very abnormal, she lives underground in fiery red fur, and doesn't care about Ma Yixian who is becoming more and more confused outside.
In short, what happened between the couple is a mess, but this is not important anymore.
Lin Shuo didn't come to resolve family conflicts, but to quell the incidents and solve hidden dangers in the entire Shennongjia area.
Yun Yulan's current situation cannot be ignored.
From the scent information Lin Shuo has obtained so far, he knows that the fur is not simply worn on Yun Yulan's body.
If it is simply worn, there will definitely be human skin exposed to the air, and the human smell will not be so weak.
The lack of human flavor now shows that she is completely covered in fur and fits perfectly.
This is very strange.
Lin Shuo didn't know what was going on in the mind of a person who had lived for hundreds of years.
So he couldn't tell what this way of wearing meant.
Combined with Ma Yixian's unequivocal misunderstanding, there is a possibility here.
That is this Yun Yulan, who is turning herself into this red fur thing.
This is her current life.
A beast that wants to become a human, such as Ning Zhi, is scary, but if a person wants to become a beast, he must be more careful.
Because this person is much more powerful than ordinary beasts.
Lin Shuo walked forward while thinking about these thoughts.
Miao Xueping, who was behind her, suddenly said, "I have something to say, and see if you know Lin Shuo."
Lin Shuo was stunned for a moment, but couldn't help standing still.
"Your father told me that back then." Miao Xueping continued, "He and your mother came to Shennongjia, do you know about it?"
"I don't know." Lin Shuo shook his head.
Ever since his old mother disappeared, the old man has kept secrets about her, so Lin Shuo seldom hears about her from him.
Now hearing such important information suddenly spit out from Miao Xueping's mouth, Lin Shuo's heart shuddered, and he faintly realized something.
"That's it." Miao Xueping also nodded, "It seems that I guessed well."
"Auntie, please speak clearly." Lin Shuo said.
"It's been almost thirty years." Miao Xueping recalled, "At that time, not long after my fight with your mother was over, your father didn't know what happened, so he ran over to see me once. Many things have been talked about in front of me, and the fact that he and your mother came to Shennongjia is one of them.
At that time, I was very aggrieved and my mind was in a daze, but I was very happy when he came, and I became crazy just looking at his face, and I didn't really listen to what he said.
But I remember the matter of Shennongjia, because what he said was very annoying. "
"How can you be angry?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Le Shan said, Yun Yuexin said, the matter of Shennongjia is difficult for her, the Yun family, to be resolved by her and Le Shan's son." Miao Xueping said angrily, "Listen, this is Is it human
I don't want to say that this showy hoof won the battle, but he came to my place to demonstrate!
What do you call the son she had with Le Shan
What's even more exasperating is that this heartless Lin Leshan really told me this!
At that time, I was so angry that I turned my face on the spot and beat Leshan out. "
"It's really time to fight." Lin Shuo nodded, "I don't bully people like that."
"That's right!" Miao Xueping said with a full face of resentment, and then her expression calmed down again, "But now that I think about it, your mother didn't tell me this on purpose to annoy me."
"Godmother." He Yongchang said, "I'll be fair, I think this is just to annoy you, I'm afraid you weren't crazy enough at the time, so come over and add some more firewood.
From my point of view, the matter of Gong Dou is just so cruel..."
"Shut up." Lin Shuo turned his head and kicked He Yongchang, then said to Miao Xueping, "Go on."
"In my mind, your mother is one of the few great hunters in the past and present. The Yun family has cultivated to her level, and her ability cannot be judged by common sense.
What she did may seem unreasonable at the time, but after thinking about it, it has a deep meaning.
Back then she told me about this through Leshan, but Leshan didn't tell you about it, so I should tell you now.
Son, do you still remember that in the Red Desert, I once handed over a gift for your mother.
Have you never felt anything about this gift? "
Lin Shuo nodded, of course he remembered it.
That gift is invisible and colorless, and it is said to be in the mind after a night of sleep.
But until now, Lin Shuo didn't know what it was, and couldn't understand it at all.
Lin Shuo thought it was because the time had not come and the gift hadn't been opened yet.
Hearing Miao Xueping say this suddenly now, his heart skipped a beat:
"what do you mean… "
"She doesn't deal with the matter of Shennongjia, and she appoints you, who has not yet been born, to handle it.
Part of the reason for this is easy to understand. Yun Yulan was the former head of the Yun family, and your mother, as the descendant of the Yun family, was unable to take action against her master ancestor, so it was not good for her to come forward directly.
But why you
It wasn't your father, nor Miao Guangqi, but you who hadn't been born yet.
And this matter happened to be told through my channel, and I was also the sender of that gift.
So, I had to think of a possibility. "
"What's possible?"
"Your mother has already arranged it. The matter of Shennongjia is the key to this gift in your sea of knowledge." Miao Xueping said, "Or, it is another part of this gift.
And I would think that Leshan told you about this, so at first I assumed that you knew about it, so I wouldn't mention it to you.
I only mention this when something is imminent, just in case.
Even the idea I'm talking about now was planted by your mother back then. "
Lin Shuo couldn't help but nodded, "It seems to be the case."
Miao Xueping added: "If that's the case, then there should be a deep meaning in the arrangement of asking you to solve the matter instead of giving you things directly.
How will the matter be resolved? Is it based on your name, Lin Shuo, or your status as their son
neither.
Since your father didn't mention this matter, then this matter must first be approached by your will, and then resolved by your ability.
So this is both a gift and an exam paper.
The gift will only be given to you if you have passed the test and can do this thing.
And this gift for you is not a simple gift, otherwise there is no need to set up such a checkpoint.
Whether it is your subjective will or objective ability, you must have the premise of being able to solve more troublesome things before this gift will be given to you to help you in the future.
Otherwise, this gift will never be opened, this should be a kind of protection from your mother. "
After hearing these words, Lin Shuo couldn't help but took a deep breath.
He was tumbling emotionally, and his nose was a little sour.
But this turbulent mood must pass immediately.
Because an examination paper has been spread out in front of my eyes.
He still doesn't know what kind of test questions are in the test paper.
What he knows now is that this is the exam question his mother Yun Yuexin left for him thirty years ago.
She got into a fight with someone earlier, and left an invigilator named Miao Xueping to hand over the test paper for her.
And what kind of questions are in this kind of examination paper, as long as you go forward, you will know soon.
