Chapter 22 Chapter 22: The Burial Canal

If I hadn't lost my mind, I might still want to say let's go and have a look, but seeing the deep darkness in the distance, I didn't say this sentence, the fat man didn't feel my timidity, and asked: "What do you mean?" It makes sense, so where are they going? Let's go and see, anyway, the river is not long." Pan Zi immediately shook his head, disagreed, and said: "We can't waste time, the third master is injured, and if something happens, he can't run away, let's not waste our experience here, what the third master told us, We still don't know what it means, so instead of creating a problem, we should take this time to think about where the entrance to the underground palace is, and it just so happens that those strange birds don't seem to be flying down."

This was exactly what I wanted, I nodded immediately, and then coughed a few times, indicating that I was seriously injured, and Shunzi didn't express his opinion. Seeing us like this, the fat man couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, shrugged and said forget it. Shunzi pulled them up the stone figurine canal, and we returned to the place where I fell. Panzi took out the lantern from his backpack and lit it to keep us warm. I counted that I hadn’t eaten for almost a day, and my stomach immediately He cried out, and the four of them sat down and ate some dry food. After opening our luggage, we discovered that most of our food was actually in the bags of Chen Pi Asi and his group. The food we carried was obviously not enough, especially the fat man. , There was basically nothing to eat in his bag.However, almost all the equipment is here with us, such as ropes, claw hooks, fire gear and other necessary expedition supplies.

Pan Zi checked and said to us: "It seems that Chen Pi Asi has already put in a lot of effort when distributing our equipment. All the equipment is carried by our people, and the food is carried by their people. No one can be pulled down, no one can run away by themselves, I really didn't notice this trick." The fat man sneered and said, "What the hell did you notice? Fortunately, I didn't expect you and your third master. Every time I meet you, you must make a loss-making business. I expected this day on the train." Pan Zi took a sip, and said: "Don't be so damn sarcastic, you are not a good person, if you don't cause trouble for us, I will be Amitabha."

Shunzi was afraid that they would quarrel, so he said, "Bosses, if you have the strength to quarrel, why don't you quickly think about what that third uncle of yours meant?" I also patted Pan Zi to keep him calm.Ask Shunzi: "At that time, the third uncle came to see you, what happened, why don't you tell us in detail, that sentence is too general, we haven't even entered the imperial tomb, I really don't know what to think about it. " When I asked, Fatty and Pan Zi also fell silent, and looked at Shunzi together. Shunzi sat down, frowned and said, "That was about a month ago. At that time, I was also taking guests up the mountain. Of course, I was not as good as you. I just walked around and looked at the snow-capped mountains. Your third uncle was in the Among those guests, when he was staying overnight on the mountain, he suddenly called me out, mysteriously, saying that he was going to go up the snow mountain by himself now, and told me not to tell anyone else, and then give me some money , Let me wait for a man named Wu Xie at the foot of the mountain at about this time. Then I will take you into the mountain. As long as I can bring you to him, I can give me a lot of money. He was with me at that time The hint he said, he emphasized that as long as it is 'you', he will understand immediately after hearing it."

"Did he say that?" I asked. Shunzi nodded with a very sure expression. I felt a little strange. These words seem to emphasize the listener, not the content of the words. As long as "I" hears it, I can understand it immediately. Do I have qualities that are different from the others? "Then how do you know how to tell us these things after dismissing Chen Pi Asi?" the fat man asked. Shunzi chuckled, showing a completely different expression from before, and said: "I'm not a fool, your third uncle told me the number of you, and said that if the number is wrong, I can only pass the message to you alone." As soon as I saw you, I felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in your team. It seemed that two different people were mixed together. I didn't know what you were doing at the time, so I had to pretend to be stupid. I have spent other people's money, if it is not done well, it will not be good if it delays your affairs."

Looking at Shunzi's expression, I felt a kind of cunning, and I felt a pimple in my heart. I thought that since he went up the mountain, his honesty was just pretending?That boy, you really can't judge by appearances, no wonder this kid became calmer as he got to the end, it turned out that he was showing his true colors. Pan Zi is an old man, so his face darkened at this moment, and he said, "It's not that simple, I think you know something else?" Shunzi smiled faintly: "I was a soldier here before I retired. I have traveled a lot in snowy mountains. My parents are native Koreans. They fled here from North Korea during the July 18 turmoil and hid in the mountains. For several years. In this mountain, there are many legends from ancient times, and we have encountered many strange things. Every year, countless people enter the mountain with various strange purposes. If you say that I don’t know anything, I still know something Something, so when I saw you walking towards the top of the mountain, I guessed what you were going to do." He paused, then gave me a meaningful look, "If it weren't for your third uncle's order, the one that fell into the avalanche on the mountainside place, I will never let you go any further."

Pan Zi looked at me, then at the fat man, and was speechless for a while. After staying for a while, Pan Zi took out a cigarette, handed it over, and said, "Brother Shun, if you don't see Mount Tai, then we are on our own now, come and smoke one." Shunzi didn't pick up the cigarette, raised his head and said, "I'm a real person, don't talk nonsense, I help you not because I like you, but because I'm asking for money. The amount that your third uncle promised to give me is enough for me to use for two lifetimes. So I have to bring you to him no matter what, you better think about what that sentence means."

Pan Zi was so embarrassed by him that he had no choice but to put the cigarette in his mouth, and looked at me with a wry smile. I asked Shunzi, "Then you can repeat what Third Uncle said back then for me." Shunzi recalled for a while, and said: "At that time, he seemed to say: 'When Wu Xie arrives, you tell him that the entrance of the underground palace is at the place where Xuanwu refuses corpses', and then I asked him what he meant by that, and he said Just say that, if it were you, you would definitely know." "It's still the same." I sighed, and said to myself, the key to the whole sentence is "I", but I can't understand this sentence at all, where the hell did the third uncle come from? For my confidence, isn't this cheating me?

Several people looked at me with earnest expressions in their eyes. I shook my head and sighed. Seeing that I couldn't figure it out, the fat man asked, "Could it be that this reminder has something to do with what happened in your own home before? Only people from your Wu family know about it?" "You can't say that." I said, "I understand Third Uncle's personality. He is not the kind of person who tells us a super complicated code and then asks us to guess it. Since he asked Shunzi to pass on the message, then this sentence is absolutely The meaning is very clear, there must be something wrong, we thought wrong."

"However, since the third master said that it is 'you' who can know it, not 'us', it must be a code related to the common ground between you." Pan Zi said: "Why don't you think about the relationship between you Just have something in common.” I feel that this is not very reliable, but at this time there is no other way, so I spread my fingers and ponder. My third uncle and I have not much in common, and it must belong to me and my third uncle. Pan Zi and the others have to be excluded. For example, if everyone is a man, and Pan Zi is also a man, then it doesn’t matter. , counting, we are all surnamed Wu, so we should count as one, but this should have nothing to do with the code.

What's more, he and I are a little confused when we see women, but this is also vague. He himself would not admit it even if he was beaten to death. Apart from these, if we can say that we have something in common, it is that he and I live in Hangzhou. Now the main place of life is Hangzhou. etc!When I thought of this, I suddenly felt a jolt, as if something appeared in my mind, as if something appeared in my mind, a hint of inspiration suddenly appeared in my mind—— "Xuanwu Rejects Corpse"—Hint of the Third Uncle——Hangzhou——"I" must be able to understand—— I suddenly realized that these four words actually mean this!
