Origin Chapter 68: Ancient Array

The abnormal performance of the little ewe made Wu Zhongyuan very puzzled, but thinking about it carefully, this kind of change really started last night. Did Zhao Ying guess right?

Let's make further observations, no, that's not the case. Apo is a veteran in love, and the little ewe can't stand it at all.

Just wondering, Zhao Ying came and brought a few eggs to Wu Zhongyuan, "How is it?"

Wu Zhongyuan took the egg and said, "It's a bit strange, you can see for yourself."

Zhao Ying leaned against the fence to observe. She also found that the little ewe's attitude towards Abo had changed, but she couldn't understand the reason for this change. She said last night that Abo's kidney deficiency was just a joke, not true So think.

"Did it bring anything back last night?" Zhao Ying asked.

"Probably not." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head. Apo is a sheep, unlike people who wear clothes and have pockets. It can only use its mouth to carry things, but when he found Apo last night, Apo didn't hold anything in his mouth. .

"There should be," Zhao Ying said sternly, "Look carefully, that ewe has been licking Apo's beard. It should have come back with something last night."

Zhao Ying reminded Wu Zhongyuan to notice this detail. Previously, he only thought that the ewe was kissing Apo, but if he looked closely, he was indeed licking its beard.

When he found Apo last night, Apo just shook his tail at him and didn't make a sound, which means that Apo probably had something in his mouth, no matter what it was, it wouldn't be very tall. Big, otherwise Apo wouldn't be able to hold it.

In addition, the reason why the little ewe licked Apo's beard was probably because the thing that Apo put in his mouth melted and dripped onto the beard, or it was possible that when Apo took the thing, some of the beard was glued to it. .

I was puzzled, so I went back and took a bucket of corn gruel, went into the sheepfold to feed it to Apo, and cut off a few beards while Apo came to eat.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan put the goatee in his mouth, Zhao Ying had a disgusting and suspicious expression, "Is it dirty?"

Wu Zhongyuan spit out a mustache, spit out two more saliva, turned around and walked out.

"What did you taste?" Zhao Ying frowned.

"Shy." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Zhao Ying couldn't stop laughing, she turned and left, "I'll get you some water to rinse your mouth."

Wu Zhongyuan turned his head and glanced at Zhao Ying. In fact, he didn't tell Zhao Ying the truth. He could also say that he only told half of the truth. The goatee was really embarrassed, but in addition to the embarrassment, there was also an obvious salty taste. Son, this means that what Abo brought back last night was probably salt, and it was a special kind of large crystal. If it was in powder form, the salt would melt away before it ran back.

Although sheep are herbivores, they also need to add salt. Salt is the magic weapon of Apo Pao Niu. The reason why it was able to abduct the ewe before was precisely because it brought salt back to the ewe, and the ewe tasted it. When it is sweet, it will leave the flock to feed with it.

Knowing that Apo was looking for salt last night, that's enough. Salt is the reference. On the west side of the northernmost mountain, where there is salt is where the clues are hidden.

After more than ten days of hard work, Wu Zhongyuan finally got a clue. Sometimes the truth is not complicated, and it just surfaced on the surface, but he thought it was complicated.

Not long after, Zhao Ying came back and handed the water cup to Wu Zhongyuan, "Rinse and rinse your mouth."

Wu Zhongyuan tilted her head and glanced at Zhao Ying, who handed over her own water glass.

After a brief hesitation, Wu Zhongyuan took the water cup and rinsed his mouth, then returned the water cup to Zhao Ying and sat outside the sheep pen to peel eggs and eat.

Eating and thinking can be done at the same time. He felt a little guilty at this time. Zhao Ying helped him a lot. If Zhao Ying hadn't fired many times on the night of the incident, he might have been arrested. The middle-aged Taoist was killed.

Concealing is actually equivalent to deception. He clearly had clues at this time, but he did not tell Zhao Ying that although he had his own difficulties, he was still a little dishonest.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan choked a little, Zhao Ying handed over the water glass again.

Wu Zhongyuan was already a little guilty, and Zhao Ying's action made him even more embarrassed, but the clue left by Yao Ziqin was too important. can not say.

But this can't be said, but other things can be said. Wu Zhongyuan took the water glass and took two sips, then opened his backpack and took out all the gold objects inside. In addition to the gold objects, there were three small He also took out the bottle, "You spent a lot of money for me, and this gold is given to you. These bottles are filled with pills, which should be ancient things, and I will also give them to you. You can take them back for delivery."

"What's the difference?" Zhao Ying inspected the gold utensils one by one. Most of the gold utensils were jewelry, and there were also a small amount of household utensils.

"They removed the crystal coffin and the wizard's body, as well as the Taoist priest's body and armor. You spent so much effort, but in the end you didn't get anything. The leaders won't criticize you? "Wu Zhongyuan said.

Thinking in empathy and empathizing with others' difficulties is an excellent character. Zhao Ying did not answer, but looked at Wu Zhongyuan from top to bottom.

Wu Zhongyuan was sorting out the clothes in his bag and didn't notice Zhao Ying looking at him, "Let's agree in advance that I might still need that staff in the future, if I need it, you have to give it back to me. "

Zhao Ying smiled, "Okay."

Wu Zhongyuan pulled on his backpack and smashed the last egg.

"Are there many men like you in China now?" Zhao Ying asked.

"Huh?" Wu Zhongyuan didn't react, and tilted his head to look at her.

"Do you know what the West thinks of you?" Zhao Ying asked again.

"Do you know how we rated them?" Wu Zhongyuan asked rhetorically.

Listening to Wu Zhongyuan's words, Zhao Ying knew that her question annoyed him again, "I don't mean to slander you, but in Western propaganda, the Chinese are all whistleblower Yuan Shikai and evil Fu Manchu." /

"That's why they are maliciously vilifying us. What qualifications do the invaders have to judge others? Do they know what it means to be loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous?" Wu Zhongyuan raised his voice.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan was angry, Zhao Ying hurriedly changed the topic, "Since you took these things out, I will send them back, and the results of the analysis and tests will be notified to you as soon as possible."

"Okay, these things should all belong to ancient tombs, belonging to different eras," Wu Zhongyuan picked up two gold utensils, "This small golden bowl is from the Yuan Dynasty, and this hairpin should be from the mid-Qing Dynasty." /

"Where did he get these things?" Zhao Ying was puzzled.

"It should have been dug up from an ancient tomb," Wu Zhongyuan said, pointing to the medicine bottles, "the ancients had the habit of taking medicinal pills, and the middle-aged Taoist was probably looking for the medicinal pills left by the ancients. medicine."

Zhao Ying nodded. She had shot the middle-aged Taoist before. The middle-aged Taoist was shot but not dead, and there was no blood coming out of the wound. There is no reasonable explanation for this strange situation. The truth is likely to be hidden in these small porcelain vases.

"How long are you going to stay here?" Zhao Ying asked.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I can't tell, what's wrong?"

"I want to send these things back and add some necessary field equipment." Zhao Ying pointed to the medicine bottles and gold utensils.

"Okay, let's go." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"At most three days, I'll be back." Zhao Ying packed up.

"Okay." Wu Zhongyuan responded.

"Do you not keep a few of the pills in these bottles?" Zhao Ying asked. After speaking, seeing Wu Zhongyuan's puzzled face, she explained with a smile, "If it's the elixir of immortality, you still don't regret Qingchangzi. ?"

Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand, "No, no, take it all, it's really an elixir of immortality, will it still be buried in a grave?"

Zhao Ying laughed, packed her things, put on her backpack and left the village.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't go to see her off. I don't know where she went or how she went.

Intimidation and enticement are both derogatory terms, but they are the two driving forces behind things.

Coercion is done passively. This is the case when forced to make a living. In order to live, one has to work hard.

Incentive is to do it actively. The essence of hard work and hard work is actually to be lured by a good life. In order to create and have a good life, do it willingly.

The specific manifestation of coercion and temptation in Abo and the little ewe is that Abo seduces the little ewe with salt. In order to get more salt, the little ewe is willing to follow Abo.

But the little ewe was timid and dared not leave the sheepfold at night. The next day was dawn, so she followed Apo westward.

Wu Zhongyuan knew where they were going, so he didn't follow.

After waiting for half an hour, Apo came with the little ewe.

There is a relatively steep mountain wall in the west, about four or five meters high, and there is a small crack on the upper part of the mountain wall.

Because the rock wall is very steep, the little ewe can't climb up, and can only wait below. Apo climbed up the mountain wall and squeezed his head into the crack with difficulty.

At this time, Apo's own advantages are reflected. The horns of the Boer goat are different from those of ordinary goats. Its horns grow backwards, while ordinary goats grow upwards and leftwards. Cracks Apo's head can squeeze in, but other goats can't squeeze in.

Soon, Apo took the salt out of the crack and jumped down the mountain wall.

The little ewe came over, but Abo didn't give it to it immediately, but walked out of the way with the salt in his mouth and put it on the ground. The reason why it did so was undoubtedly not wanting to expose its "treasure house."

This height is nothing to Wu Zhongyuan. He jumped up, climbed with one hand, and observed the cracks. There were many salt lumps in the cracks, which were naturally formed rock salt. The size of the box is about the size of a bean.

In the depths of the crack, there is a white cylindrical metal object, which is an old-fashioned flashlight.

This kind of flashlight is very common in rural areas. In the early years, almost every household had it. After starting, Wu Zhongyuan knew that the flashlight was not a battery but something else because of the wrong weight.

Unscrew the cap at the end and pour out the contents, which is a roll of sheepskin wrapped in oiled paper.

Tear open the oiled paper, spread it out, and find that there is an old sheepskin and a modern kraft paper. Lots of words. The kraft paper is relatively large, about sixteen open, and on it is written densely packed modern Chinese characters.

The first sentence on the kraft paper is 'the sheepskin left by the ancestors in Tibetan. ’ This indicates that the content on this vellum is a translation of the Tibetan language of sheepskin.

This flashlight was left by Yao Ziqin, and the content on the kraft paper should have been translated by Yao Ziqin.

Excited in his heart, Wu Zhongyuan didn't read it carefully.

After reading it, his heart was mixed, and he was relieved that there was a method that could travel through time and space. It can open the wormhole under certain conditions, and send the person who opened the wormhole back to the ancient times. The parchment clearly indicates the detailed location of the formation and the specific method of entering that area.

What worries him is that certain conditions need to be met to open the wormhole. The formation is like a car. If you want to start the car, you must have gasoline. For the formation, the gasoline to start it is the kind of White jade, called spirit stone in ancient times.

The number of spirit stones is not the key to starting the formation. What matters is the amount of spirit energy contained in the spirit stones. The original spirit energy contained in each spirit stone is roughly equal, but as time goes by, the spirit energy contained in the spirit stones will gradually increase. The emission is reduced, and it is necessary to search for multiple spirit stones until the accumulation reaches a certain level before the formation can be activated.

On the second half of the vellum, are the names of fifteen people, their gender, age, and personality...
