C300 Shadows cry for help (1/2)
I told Tang Rou that this photo was sent by the shadow.
In this period of time, she hadn't called him, but Tang Rou's hand was shaking as she held the phone. She constantly zoomed in and out of the picture. Her expression was very strange.
”Do you know this painting? I also feel that there's something familiar about it, but I can't recall where I've seen it before. ”
”How could you have met such a thing?”
Tang Rou suspiciously looked at me. I also felt that it was weird, but then I remembered that this was probably caused by Daoist Tian Xuan's memory.
I still hadn't told everything to Tang Rou. On one hand, I didn't want Tang Rou to be sad over thinking about Daoist Tian Xuan, and on the other hand, I didn't want Tang Rou to worry about me.
”Then tell me, what does this map represent?”
”This is the original diagram of a very ancient sealing spell formation. I only saw a incomplete portion of this in one of my grandfather's notes. I never thought that it would be nearly complete.”
Tang Rou's astonishment made me feel as if I had really met something very strange.
Shadow and I can't be considered friends, but of course, we can't be considered enemies either. It's just that there's a Zhou Xue between us, so I don't dare to believe him.
”Call them back. We're already very close to the airport, so even if they want to follow us, they can't be this fast.”
Naturally, I followed Tang Rou's decision without any conditions. I called her back, but this time, there was someone who answered.
”How is it? Did you change your mind? ”
There was impatience in the shadow's voice, as though the situation was extremely urgent. Moreover, I could hear that the shadow's voice was a little hoarse, as though the shadow's body was a little weak.
”Where did you get this picture? What problems did you encounter? If you can explain it clearly, maybe we can meet once in a while. ”
Tang Rou pressed the speaker button and then spoke to Shadow.
”We took this picture in an underground cave in the jungle. The general location is in the north of China, and it was taken about a week ago. That place has a lot of these murals, if you are willing to help, we can provide you with other information about this place.”
The shadow was not a long-winded person, and soon enough, he gave a general idea of what had happened.
”If you all still hate us because of what happened last time, then there's no need at all. As long as you are willing to help, we can agree to any conditions, and we can even help you deal with that Zhou Xue.”
Shadow seemed to know, and we suspected it was a trap.
”Tell me what happened to you. If I can't answer this question, I can't help you. ”
Shadow was silent for a moment, then hung up.
Just when I thought that this matter was over, a photo suddenly appeared on my phone.
It showed a face, a horribly distorted face.
I remember clearly that this face belonged to the leader of their mercenary group, who had a full beard.
It really did look terrifying, and it definitely wasn't made from a diagram.
