Chapter 24.1: white snake
Although Mr Yu was duplicitous, Xiangnu was in a good mood. He explained it to Yu Su and finally turned off the screen.
Shu Jian was walking towards him, Xiang Nu put down the rolled-up trouser legs, patted the ashes on his body, and then stood up.
Shu Jian walked over with the stem of the yarrow and asked, “Little Junior Brother, I’m back, so I’ll start digging?”
Xiang Nu looked at the small mounds on the ground and nodded in agreement.
Shu Jian looked around the hill, put the stem into the small hole that had been dug, bent down, and began to disintegrate from the inside.
Xiang Nu stared at his movements for a while, not knowing whether Shu Jian’s actions were helpful or not. He looked at the dense mounds in front of him, walked back and forth in the hills and plains a few times, and suddenly squatted down in front of two mounds with large openings.
Xiangnu’s palm touched back and forth on the flat ground in the middle and found that the colour of this place was different from that of the other mounds and the distance between them was also just the size of a small mound.
There should have been a small hill in this flat place before, but Xiangnu didn’t know if it was done by any quest person who partic.i.p.ated in this dungeon before, or if the old man moved his hand. This mound might also have an earth soul and then was dug out along with the bones underneath. Then the mound was completely flattened.
Xiang Nu looked at Shu Jian, who picked a lot of yarrow stalks and came back, Xiang Nu walked over and picked one up, then went to the flattened mound again, plucked the surrounding soil, and arched a small mound up.
After Xiangnu discovered the mound that was suspected to be dug out and then flattened, he began to observe the ground around him, walking carefully from the head to the foot of the mound, and one after another found more than twenty mounds that had existed before but had been bulldozed.
Xiangnu used yarrow stems to make a mark on it, counted the small mounds from the beginning to the end, and found that there were 206 small mounds in total.
Although Xiangnu had eye problems before, his education level was not low. After realizing that there were a total of 206 hills, he immediately realized something.
While Shu Jian was fighting the hard mound, he climbed up to the north side of the hill and looked down on the mound plain below from a high position.
If he was correct, these mounds at the foot of the northern mountain add up to a figure of a ‘man’.
The one on the farthest side that was about to sink into the river was the head of the human body. The 29 hillocks represented the fifteen facial skulls, eight brain skulls, and three auditory ossicles in each of the middle ears on both sides.
Below was the torso bone consisting of the sternum, vertebrae, and ribs, a total of fifty-one.
There were also upper and lower limb bones on both sides of the torso, a total of 126 pieces.
After replacing the specific data, Xiang Nu was finally able to identify the image of all of the mounds altogether.
Thinking of the finger bones he and Shu Jian dug up before, a flash of lightning flashed across Xiangnu’s mind, and he suddenly understood something.
Xiang Nu carefully slipped down the mountain, Shu Jian was sweating profusely from the tormented sun, and finally knocked the hard mound open a little. Xiang Nu waited beside him for his results, and before he knew it, half an hour time pa.s.sed.
Shu Jian finally dug up the hill, Xiangnu carefully removed the broken stones on it and groped at the bottom of the hill, but there was nothing.
Shu Jian looked at him nervously and asked, “Little Junior Brother, is there anything in it?”
Xiangnu shook his head and said lightly: “No. Not surprisingly, the bones inside have been dug up by the master.”
A look of sadness suddenly appeared on Shu Jian’s face, Xiangnu waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry, I have already made a discovery.”
Xiang Nu walked around and found that in the hills, only the head had not been planned, probably because the head was too small from the foot of the mountain and too close to the sea.
Thinking of this, Xiangnu couldn’t help but look at Shu Jian with a thoughtful look.
Shu Jian was very conscious of being a tool person. After seeing Xiangnu’s expression for a while, he said, “Little Junior Brother, if you have anything for me to do, you don’t have to be polite.”
Xiang Nu pointed to the farthest mounds, covered his lips, and coughed lightly, “Third Senior Brother, I want to draw an area that is close to the sea, and then you lure away all the souls inside and dig out the bones below.”
Hearing this, Shu Jian swallowed his saliva, a little scared saying, “Junior Brother, are you sure you want to do this?”
Xiangnu nodded, and the emotions in Shu Jian’s eyes kept shifting in hesitation and trepidation, and only after a long time, did he nod heavily and said, “Younger brother you won’t harm me, I won’t ask the reason, you draw the position to me, I’ll dig!!”
Xiang Nu lowered his eyebrows and sighed softly, “By the way, third senior brother, I have to go to second senior brother for some business in a while, and I may not be able to accompany you here. Be careful when you dig earth souls and don’t get hurt. ”
Hearing this, Shu Jian panicked, but Xiangnu patted him on the shoulder: “Don’t be afraid, there shouldn’t be any danger. I just reminded you just in case. Although you have to work, you can’t take your surroundings lightly.”
Xiangnu said with relief, “Don’t be afraid, third senior brother. If you are injured, it doesn’t matter. I have a lot of life points. As long as you keep a life. You can look for me when you get out of the copy, and I will heal your injuries.”
Shu Jian smiled bitterly, didn’t say anything, just nodded silently, and then said to Xiangnu, “Little Junior Brother, show the area to me, it’s getting late, let’s finish the work early, and we’d better find the clues and leave the dungeon early.”
Xiangnu showed Shu Jian the way, took him to the end of the hill, drew an area along the line for Shu Jian, and then told him, “All the bones in this area must be dug out after completing, if there is still enough time, you can dig the left side too.”
Xiangnu demarcated another area. This area belonged to the left upper limb of the human body divided by Xiangnu and was the least damaged area except for the skull.
Shu Jian himself compared the location, looking for a safe point, and then began to work.
Fortunately, there were earth souls in these small mounds. The soil was very soft. Shu Jian could easily dig it.
Xiangnu stood beside Shu Jian and watched for a while, and after Shu Jian dug out two bones, he told Shu Jian, “Second brother, after the bones are dug out, try to put them together in order. If you mess up, you won’t be able to put them together. Then it would be troublesome.”
Shu Jian nodded and asked, “Little Junior Brother, do you have any other orders?”
Xiangnu shook his head, “I have to leave for a while, to go to the sixth senior brother and ask them about the situation, will try to come back as soon as possible. If I don’t come soon, do not be afraid, if you encounter danger, just run.”
Shu Jian nervously swallowed his saliva, then nodded heavily, saying that he will remember it all.
Then Xiangnu left, and when he climbed up the mountain, he pa.s.sed through the gra.s.s covered with thorn b.a.l.l.s. Xiangnu suddenly remembered, lifting the hem of his pants to take a look and subsequently found that his skin this time was neither red nor swollen, that black patterned tattoo attached to his snow-white skin was like an ordinary decoration, vivid and beautiful.
Xiangnu walked to the top of the north mountain and looked down for Miao Dong and the others. When he saw them, Xiangnu found that except for Jiang Chao, the other three were standing together in front of a door with a red flag hanging, not knowing what they were discussing.
Xiangnu observed the route and didn’t want from the old man’s place. He was going to go around to find Miao Dong and the others, he happened to think of the old man, so he glanced at the old man’s house, and then saw a sneaky figure walking against the wall there on the side of the old man.
Xiang Nu was slightly startled, almost couldn’t hold his expression back.
If it weren’t for his excellent eyesight after being treated with HP, he would hardly have seen the man in the grey gown who quickly merged with the wall.
Xiang Nu carefully glanced at the old man’s house, and when he saw that there was no movement, after calming his heart down a little, he walked down the mountain silently, towards the figure who ran out of the old man’s back room, and after approaching him, he gently moved from behind and tapped the man on the shoulder.
