Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 321: Doubts about returning or not returning
According to Xin Zhao, the oasis of Zhiguo in Guibugui's mouth is a two-day and one-night journey from here. Seeing the rare nervous expression on Gui Bugui's face this time, Xiao Ren San didn't bother. Let Bai Wuqiu help set up a tent on Ma Ma to avoid the sun. The little guy held the wine jar and drank into a daze, and he was not complaining that he was going to be dried with ginseng.
On the way, whether I return or not is like a different person. Instead of talking and laughing like he used to have nothing to say, the old guy is silent now, all day, he immediately lowered his head and thought about something. Bai Wuqiu called him several times, but most of the old guy didn't hear it. In the end, his cheap son was too lazy to call him, so he went to Wu Mian to discuss anything.
According to the meaning of no return, don't rest at night, go directly to the land of Zhiguo. But he, Wu Mian, and those two monsters could stand it, Xin Zhao and the people he hired really couldn't bear to travel day and night in the desert like this. After it was dark for a long time, under the repeated pleas of Xin Zhao and the others, I finally agreed to rest here for a night, and then set off immediately after dawn the next day.
At the moment, these people began to set up tents and make fires to cook. The old guy sat directly in the sand and drew something on the sand with his fingers. However, after drawing it, I was not very satisfied, so I wiped off what I drew, and then drew on the sand again. In this way, the painting is done and wiped off, and after wiping, the painting is repeated over and over a dozen times.
The old guy has practiced inedia and doesn't need to eat. After dinner was cooked, Xin Zhao came over to invite him a few times, but he didn't even come back. He just kept his head down and continued to draw pictures that no one could understand.
Among them, Xiao Ren San and Bai Wuqiu came to see them. When I saw the old guy, it seemed like he was drawing some kind of map, looking at a block by block, and it didn't look like a map in the wild. Looking at the old guy's frown, he didn't dare to disturb him without asking for anything. I just glanced at it and went on to find a place to drink and eat meat.
"Looks like you forgot to tell me something..." When Xin Zhao and the other hired people fell asleep, Wu Mian walked slowly to the side of Gui Wugui. After glancing at the sand map that the old guy had just drawn halfway through, he continued: "Let me tell you a word for you, you have been to Zhiguo before, and you should have suffered losses there. If you haven't figured out anything, okay, I'll say That's it. You can go on and on..."
I told Wu Mian this, and I didn't want to continue drawing pictures when I returned or not. However, the old man's face finally regained his old smile. After smiling at Wu Mian, he said, "If it weren't for Zhao Ji, I would have almost forgotten the absurd things when I was young..."
Back then when I was a little alchemist, I just worshipped under Xu Fu's family. He once entered the desert alone, and at that time he wanted to cross the desert to find a tribe of dogs. I went to find the heavenly fine iron that fell from the sky not long ago, and wanted to use this piece of fine iron to make magic instruments.
What he didn't expect was that he encountered a big storm in the desert. At that time, the alchemy of return and return was limited, and it was not enough to eliminate the sandstorm. His own horse also died in the sandstorm. Gui Bugui relied on his magic to protect himself, although he was fine, but he still landed in a sand cave.
At that time, the old guy stepped on the air and fell, and passed out on the spot with his head first. When he woke up, the hole above his head was covered by sand again. Fortunately, there is a magic organ that covers the sand above, so that the return is not buried alive.
The old guy got up and found himself in a palace-like place. At that time, he relied on his magic to protect himself, thinking about the depths of the palace and walked in. Not long after walking in, the old guy found that this place turned out to be a country without any written records. He had seen some crooked pictures on the wall that looked like words, and looked at the bone inscriptions that were somewhat Shang Dynasty. However, after recognizing it for a long time, Gui Wugui still did not recognize a word.
Although the old guy didn't recognize what was written on the text, he still saw some clues from some murals. Among them, in a place that seems to be the main hall, there are several pictures of Chinese army and some tall warriors fighting. The first few paintings are still very brilliant, but the last few murals above the fighting men and horses turned their battles into jade silk.
Soldiers in Central Plains costumes also sent some food and gifts such as jade and stone chimes to these warriors. At this time, the flags of the Central Plains army also had some marks such as dragon flags that could prove their identity. One of the flags was engraved with a commerce word in bone inscriptions.
Looking at the meaning on the mural, the Shang Dynasty once sent a large army to the desert to conquer this small country. However, the war did not seem to go well, and finally the commander of the Shang Dynasty changed his strategy. To form an alliance with this warrior country to get what they need, although it is a little cowardly, it has avoided a disaster of swords and soldiers.
When I saw this, I was even more puzzled. He had never seen such a major event as the war between the two countries in the literature at all. If it wasn't for his predecessor's experience, he would have thought he was listening to a legendary story.
After staying in this dark palace for a long time, I have to go out after all. However, the character of no return made him return empty-handed and it was not realistic. Now he continues to search here for any treasures worth taking out.
However, I am a little disappointed that there are many common things such as gold and jewelry here, but there are few useful treasures. Just when he was about to give up, he returned to the place where he fell, and used magic to hit the sand above his head. When I drove out of the way, I found several stone chimes left here in the Shang Dynasty in the palace.
Stone qing was a stalagmite that was popular among princes and princes during the Shang Dynasty to record the events of princes and princes. The words above are all bone inscriptions that the old guy knew. At the moment, the old guy saw another historical record on it that surprised him even more.
It says that King Pan Geng of Shang personally led a large army to attack Zhiguo. He had been victorious, but a big storm turned the tide of the battle. Later, after entanglement with the Zhiguo army for half a year, it was difficult for the country to maintain such a consuming long-distance war. The King of Shang could only change his strategy to temporarily strike, and first keep his strength and return to the Shang Dynasty.
I am afraid that when the army retreats, the army of Zhiguo will attack from behind. The King of Shang accepted the plan of his generals and formed a covenant with Zhiguo, and planned to fight again after returning to the country to recuperate.
The characters written on it are all bone inscriptions. It seems that the King of Shang was clearly bullying Zhiguo who couldn't understand his own words, and he gave this stone chime as a gift to the lord of Zhiguo. However, according to the calculation of time, the Shang Wang Pangeng died in the second year after returning to China. It seems that Zhiguo's luck is really good. They fought against the King of Shang's army, and they were about to lose the first time. A big sandstorm came to save them. The second time, the cunning King of Shang planned to go back to cultivate and come back again, but he did not expect that the King of Shang would be short-lived and never return.
All of a sudden, I'm even more confused if I don't return. Is this the ruins of Zhiguo? Didn't it say that the country of Zhi was built by the banshee after the fall of the Shang Dynasty? Here is the stone chime gifted by King Pan Geng of the Shang Dynasty. According to what is written on it, this juvenile kingdom will have to go forward for at least a few hundred years. Could historians of such a major event be wrong?
After seeing these stone chimes, Gui Bu Gui became even more confused. At the moment, he continued to look at the records on the following stone chimes, which were nothing more than words to sing praises to King Pan Geng of Shang. The Shang Wang Pan Geng is also a bit nasty to give his flattering article as a national gift.
But in the last stone chime, Gui Bu Gui finally found what he was interested in. It was recorded that the reason why the King of Shang conquested Zhiguo this time was to obtain the sacred relic of immortality in Zhiguo. It's just that this sacred object is hidden in a secret place, and even the lord of the country cannot easily enter.
It is said that entering this place requires a special time to be born in Zhiguo's life sacrifice, which is so coincidental, that time happened to be the eight-character time of Xu Fu's benefactor Qu's reincarnation...
