As soon as this fifty-something woman holding a picture of Huang Quan appeared, the attitude of the others became more respectful. They all knew that even Po Yun had to be courteous to this woman, not to mention herself.
I didn't dare to stand upright, so I hid between the corpses and looked out along the gap. When the woman walked a few steps toward this side, I was stunned.
She does look like she is about fifty years old, her temples are pale, and her face is densely wrinkled. However, her face will not change, I can recognize it, and she will never admit her mistake. She is Qingluo.
This fifty-something woman turned out to be Qingluo!
I never thought, because when Qingluo saw me last time, she was obviously a young woman in her early twenties, but how long had it been apart? It turned out to be old so fast.
But after thinking about it, this shouldn't be a particularly strange thing. I met Qingluo for the first time. She was about forty years old, but after tossing and turning, I didn't know how many things had happened, and she became younger inexplicably.
Since it can become younger in a short period of time, it is entirely possible to become senile in a short period of time.
At this moment, Qingluo seemed to be a completely different person, older than when I first met her. She herself was a silent and gentle person and had never lost her temper. Looking at it at this time, she seemed to be sad, with her head slightly lowered, not talking to others, and not knowing what was on her mind.
"Big boss." A person from the Five Elements Hall whispered next to him: "Big boss, the smell over there is too strong and unpleasant. You still don't want to go there yourself?"
Qingluo still bowed her head while the person was talking. Po Yun saw it and patted her lightly. Qingluo recovered.
"Big boss, it smells bad over there, so don't pass it."
"No." Qing Luo shook her head: "I want to hold this painting by myself."
When I talked about this painting, the people nearby were silent. After a few people walked to the front, Qing Luo looked up, her courage had always been relatively small, seeing so many corpses standing upright by the river, she couldn't help frowning and stopped.
As soon as Qingluo stood firm, she held the painting and stopped moving, still lowering her head, not knowing what was on her mind.
"Okay, you guys, go to the ship and prepare for it." Po Yun turned her face sideways and said to the people following her: "Wait for the time to come, we have to do business."
These people were all smart. Upon hearing what Yun Po said, she knew that she must have something to tell Qing Luo, so she immediately turned and left and walked to the boat near the river.
"Big boss." After waiting for these people to leave, Po Yun immediately changed her face and said to Qing Luo: "You are walking outside to lead these people. You have to show some momentum."
"Poor Yun, I don't want to lead these people, let alone..." Qing Luo shook her head and said, "I don't want to hold this painting..."
"Don't do this." Po Yun sighed softly, and said, "Big boss, you have received enough punishment this time. Don't go your own way. Stay away for a while and everything will pass."
"Everything will pass, can it be that easy..." Qing Luo turned her head and looked at the flowing river not far away, her eyes that looked old and godless, like
She shed all her tears.
"Hey..." Po Yun sighed again, and said, "Anyway, let's pass the last few days before talking. It can't be delayed."
"Poor Yun, don't sigh, I know you are doing me well." Qing Luo looked at Po Yun and forced a smile: "I'm fine."
Between them, I didn't even dare to move, but I heard clearly. Even though the two talk without head and tail, I can still hear that Cheongna has been punished to become what she is now.
What punishment did she receive? Who was punished
I haven't heard these questions, but I can think of them based on my own imagination. Before we separated from Qingluo last time, she said that she returned the painting and went to Tongchuan to find me with ease.
But she definitely did not get her wish. Qing Luo has a very mild temper, but sometimes she has her own opinions when she does things. Once she makes up her mind, she is determined.
I guessed that it was because of this incident that she would be punished, and she became the way she is now.
It's just that by this time, Qingluo didn't change her heart, she still wanted to let go of the Huangquantu in her hand and live the life she wanted to live.
I was excited and sad, but at this moment, no matter how excited or sad, I have to endure it. Facts have proved that Qingluo can't completely control the situation. Everyone respects her, but they don't necessarily listen to her.
The current beach is the tiger den and wolf den. Once I expose my figure, I will be arrested immediately.
I forcibly endured all the emotions in my heart, still hiding in the pile of corpses. Po Yun persuaded Qingluo to get close to the shallows, and then the three lamp bearers were called by Po Yun.
"It's almost time." Po Yun looked over her head and said, "Go ahead, when things are done here, the three of you, leave immediately with the people in the Five Elements Hall, and find a suitable place. Find enough corpses that you need."
"Po Yun, rest assured, as long as there is nothing wrong with the Five Elements Hall, there will be no problems."
The light bearer couldn't understand Li Cheng, so he gave him small shoes at every turn. Li Cheng was arrogant and always wanted to talk back, but Po Yun was very harsh, and Li Cheng didn't dare to be presumptuous. In anger, he retreated to the side with a few people around him.
The three light bearers cooperated with each other, some carried lanterns on bamboo poles, and another knocked on a small gong. As soon as the gong rang, all the corpses began to tremble. I couldn't help it. Although I felt awkward, I had to tremble with them.
The densely packed corpses began to walk towards the shoal. The light bearer led in front, and the corpses followed behind until the shallow water. The small gong in the light bearer's hand did not stop.
I secretly took a breath. Is this trying to drive all the corpses into the river
But after thinking about it, this is not a bad thing. I am in the middle of the corpse. These people are staring tightly and there is no chance to get out. If they really get into the river, they will not be able to stare. I happened to take advantage of the chaos to dive quietly. slip.
As long as you can slip away, you can find a way to keep up with Yunpo and Qingluo's boat. If you find an opportunity, you may even ask Qingluo face to face.
Sure enough, a light bearer kept beating the small gong on the shore, and all the corpses walked into the water. The water by the river is not very deep, but as you go far, the water gradually floods your chest.
It's not a chance to escape now
Yes, it will be more secure when you walk a little forward and completely out of the opponent's gaze.
However, just as I was waiting to walk forward for a while, the small gong behind me suddenly stopped ringing. As soon as the gong fell, all the corpses stopped, and I was the only one who continued walking forward. Fortunately, it was mixed among so many corpses without being noticed.
I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't dare to turn my head and look at it. It was probably just a few breaths. This shallow water suddenly turned a wave of water.
There was no wind at this time, and the flow of the river was very slow. I don’t know why such a big wave suddenly turned up. The water wave was rolled up in the air, and it rained down again. I was all over my body. Soaked and trembling with cold.
Under the impact of such water waves, the corpse was unsteady and staggered. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I looked back and saw Qingluo standing by the river holding the picture of the yellow spring.
The picture of Huangquan was opened, and this strange light seemed to flash on the dim picture. Before I had time to look again, this shallow water suddenly turned into a vast ocean, and it seemed that there was a huge whirlpool, overwhelming the sky, directly engulfing all the corpses around it.
All of a sudden, I felt that the world was spinning, and then I lost consciousness.
The fainting time may be very long, when I wake up again, the surrounding water waves have completely disappeared, and it is very quiet.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a faint yellowness, as if I was immersed in a cloud of setting sun. But soon, I completely regained my sanity, my whole body was agitated, and my scalp was numb.
There are corpses everywhere, all corpses who were driven down the river with me. At this moment, I am drifting in a river with these corpses.
I can't read it wrong, this river is the river in the map of Huangquan. The river water is dim, just like the water of a big river. But as long as you distinguish it carefully, you can see that there is no sediment in the water of this river, and the water itself is dim.
This is the place drawn in the picture of Huangquan! Absolutely!
I don't know how I was sent here, and when I got up to struggle, I was afraid of someone next to me.
I floated on the water with my face up to the sky and observed for a while. There was no one around, no one, only the quietly flowing river.
I still don't know exactly where these corpses will float to, but my premonition is not good. Po Yun commanded the lamp bearer and the Five Elements Hall specially to get these corpses and sent them to this place. She must do something with these corpses.
If you keep drifting with these corpses, God knows what the consequences will be.
When I think of this, I feel a little uncomfortable, and I regret that I was impulsive, mixed in the corpse, and landed where I am now.
However, after thinking about it again, if you didn't follow here, then some things might be guessed out of thin air, and you would never be able to guess.
I gritted my teeth, and settled as I came. This is the path I chose. Whether right or wrong, difficult or dangerous, I have to find ways to find the hidden secrets that may exist in this place.
When I was thinking about these things in my heart, the river was still flowing, and all the corpses were quietly floating on the water, heading towards the lower reaches of the river.
