C137 (1/2)
Seeing me walk towards him, Xu Man immediately put on a frightened expression, as if I wanted to go over and beat him up again!
Seeing this, I couldn't help but smile helplessly, signalling for him to relax. I passed him a cigarette before we talked about the past.
Originally, I didn't believe that there was someone in this world who could predict the future. The legend about Liu Bowen was only a legend. But in order to get some information out of him, I told him about the Hyena.
After hearing my question, a hint of awkwardness flashed across Xu Man's eyes.
In his words, the old monk did indeed have some exceptional abilities. However, he did not know that the old monk knew about the hyena either. Furthermore, those people from last time were only old monks who had gathered together to do many heartless things, but were unable to be punished by the law.
I was noncommittal on this point, mainly because of my skepticism about his character. However, in order to get some useful information from him, I didn't care that much and continued to bullshit with him, ”Legend has it that after Emperor Qin Shi Huang died, his Inherited Jade Seal mysteriously went missing, so how did you find any clues and run to the Stoneplate Mountain?”
Hearing my words, Xu Man was obviously proud, ”That's simple. There was once a group of grave robbers who went into Zhao Gao's tomb, but when they arrived, there were some signs that someone had cast a spell there. ”Although there aren't any missing necromancers, we didn't find any gold or silver vessels, meaning that this was caused by a grave robber of the same age as Zhao Gao …”
At this point, Xu Man seemed to have realized my intention and immediately shut his mouth.
And I, have got the information I want from his words.
Through those signs, the old monk naturally thought of his time in Ancient Yunnan Country, and at that time, the country was famous for its arts. Thus, the old monk began to investigate the tomb of his teacher.
Although the book that appeared in the ruins was very mysterious, that was no longer the main point. The point is, through the old monk's model, I can roughly guess the purpose of our visit!
They had always been searching for the Everlasting Jue, but this time they were no longer digging in the ancient tomb as usual, but here to find some kind of medicine! This meant that the old monk must have seen something important hidden under the tree or in the vicinity!
However, as long as we don't enter that gloomy tomb, we can treat this trip as a hike!
Thinking of this, I didn't have any worries anymore. I walked straight back to my tent and began counting the stars in the sky.
Our tents were all built by Dong Wan'er. The roofs of the tents were transparent, making it easy for campers to enjoy the night sky.
However, just as I was about to close my eyes and count the stars in the sky, I suddenly saw something huge sweeping across the sky!
Seeing this, I immediately sat up in shock! But when I sat up, the sky was still clear and the stars were clearly visible.
Was this a hallucination?
However, when I lay back down, I suddenly found that there was a pair of dark green eyes staring at our campsite from a tree nearby!
F * ck, what the hell is this!
Fearful, I reached for the flashlight I had placed by my pillow. At this moment, I suddenly realized that our surroundings had once again fallen into that strange silence!
As long as the forest was not filled with killing intent, or was passed by an animal that had an extraordinary deterrence ability, it would not be able to make the forest fall into silence! Yet, at this moment, our surroundings had become so quiet. It meant that those green eyes of ours must be some kind of ferocious beast!
