Half fairy

Chapter 691
I don't know if Duan Yunyou listened to his words, but he still held the torch to look at the carved murals.

Zuo Hufa Gong Ziting waited anxiously for a while, but seeing no response, he couldn't help calling out, "Master."

Duan Yunyou finally had a reaction, and said softly, "It didn't say that Qilin ginseng can grow here."

"Uh..." Gong Ziting was stunned, even a little unbelievable, and said in surprise: "Guangzhu, this, I can't have misheard, you clearly told me that you seized this place to find Qilin ginseng."

Duan Yunyou, who moved the torch to look at the painting, nodded slightly, "That's right."

Gong Ziting's eyes widened. He didn't know what the leader's contradictory words meant, so he had to remind him again: "Leader, this really doesn't seem like a place where Qilin ginseng can grow."

Duan Yunyou was silent, and finally raised his chin towards the mural, "There may be clues to it here. It's not the ginseng, but the carvings in the temple."

Gong Ziting was stunned again, and finally fixed his eyes on the carved murals on the wall, but the traces of the vicissitudes of time on it were too obvious, the years were too long, and the stone carvings were already blurred, and it was impossible to see clearly what was said in the murals what is it.

But he also understood the meaning of the leader, and said in surprise: "Master, what do you mean, there are clues about Qilin ginseng recorded in this mural?"

Duan Yunyou nodded, "Maybe."

Gong Ziting showed doubts on his face, feeling that the leader was not telling the truth, as if he was hiding something from everyone, he immediately questioned: "Master, this temple must have been abandoned here for at least thousands of years, and the qilin ginseng is here today. How long has it been? It’s only been a hundred or so years, how could it be possible for this mural to record something thousands of years later.”

Duan Yunyou smiled, "There are no absolutes in this world."

Gong Ziting: "The boss doesn't want to say that Qilin ginseng is only discovered late, but it is actually already alive, right? The subordinates think that no matter how early it is, it will not be too early. If this kind of spiritual creature that gathers the spiritual energy of the world, if it is really practiced thousands of times Years ago, he has already ruled the world, and he will run away in fear when he meets no one."

Duan Yunyou turned around, narrowed his eyes, and stared coldly at the guardian in front of him.

Gong Ziting was a little embarrassed by him, avoided the other party's gaze, and lowered his head slightly.

Duan Yunyou stared at this subordinate for a long time, hesitating whether to tell some things, he didn't want to say it at first, at least he didn't want to say it now, but there are some things that he can't do by himself, and he still needs the help of these subordinates, see you soon If it's not good, I'm afraid I won't be busy with Bai.

The gangs here in Tianji Mountain are not those outside gangs, unlike outside gang leaders who can make decisions alone.

He must at least get the support of these backbones in the gang. If even these backbones are passive and sabotage, then the people below will naturally be even less able to control them.

After hesitating again and again, Duan Yunyou handed over the torch in his hand.

Gong Ziting was puzzled, but still took the torch.

Duan Yunyou reached into his clothes, and slowly took out a package of oiled paper. He opened the oiled paper, and a parchment book was revealed. Under the firelight, the words "Tianji Mountain Mapping Notes" were vaguely written on the cover, because the color of the book was rather dark. , causing the handwriting to be confused.

Looking at the style of this gadget, one can tell that it must be something from many years ago.

Gong Ziting was puzzled and asked, "Master, what is this?"

Duan Yunyou: "I got this by accident a few years ago. It is probably a note left by a cartographer sent by a certain force to make a map of Tianji Mountain a long time ago during the field survey. As for when this is I don't know about the record left by He Yue, there is no date written on it, but this thing should have existed for many years."

Gong Ziting's eyes lit up, "Could it be that the Qilin ginseng was recorded?"

Duan Yunyou shook his head, opened the parchment, and directly turned to the records on the middle page, and handed it to him, making it obvious for him to read it for himself.

Seeing the sect leader's trust, Gong Ziting first bowed respectfully, holding the torch in one hand, he stretched out the other hand to receive the book, and carefully read the contents against the firelight.

After reading it through, it probably means:

On the [-]th day of unknown year and month, the person who left the note and a person named "Zhuo" walked into the desert and suddenly encountered a strong wind. It's cool, sitting back to back, waiting for the wind and sand to stop.

After the howling wind and sand lasted for a while, the two suddenly found that there seemed to be a vague and abnormal shadow in the desert, so they got up to look, only to find that it was an abandoned temple, buried in the sand at an angle, and it should not be visible normally. This time it appeared due to the strong wind.

Outside the abandoned temple, there is a stone sculpture of Kylin on the left and right, and the plaque on the gate of the temple is also written with the words "Kirin Temple".

The two entered the temple to shelter from the wind, but saw the majestic and towering statue of the deity, which seemed to be reclining, and the walls of the temple were exquisitely carved, with many bionic pictures of unicorns engraved, which seemed to record the daily life of unicorns in the fairy world.

The two planned to leave when the wind stopped, but it was already dark after the wind stopped, so they planned to spend the night in the temple before talking.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, it started to rain in this damn desert, with thunder and lightning, and the rain dripped in the dilapidated temple.

What made the two of them even more unexpected was still behind, suddenly a strong light and thunderbolt hit the temple, and the temple was buzzing with shock.

An astonishing scene also appeared at this time, the hall suddenly burst into hazy light, and a huge and majestic beast appeared in the light, it was Qilin.

The majesty of the divine beast under the radiance blessing is really frightening, the neck beard is windless and automatic, and the glance of the eyes, the cold aura of aloofness and contempt for all living beings scared the two of them enough.

The two thought their lives were at an end, but when Qilin stomped its hooves and roared towards the sky, as if it was about to fight against the thunder, they saw something was wrong.

It looked good and roared up to the sky, and its momentum was amazing, but there was no sound in the roar.

After they calmed down, they realized that the divine beast unicorn was actually standing in a slanted posture, and the inclination angle was the same as the inclination of the temple.

The two suddenly realized that it was an illusion of light and shadow.

The two tried to reach out to touch it, but found that there was nothing real in the void. At this moment, the light and shadow dimmed, and disappeared together with the image of the unicorn.

Later, the two wanted to find out why there was such a fantastic scene in the temple, but they stayed for an extra day, because the resurgent sandstorm buried the temple again, and the two had no choice but to leave first because of the situation. Check back later.

The records about the temple seemed to end here, and there was no follow-up content. Gong Ziting flipped through it again and found that the pages behind were all blank.

He couldn't help looking around, and saw the towering statue of a reclining god that matched the records in his notes, but it had been mottled beyond recognition and lost its majesty. Bowl.

There are also carvings all over the hall, which are not exquisite at all, they are all blurred.

In addition, the so-called Qilin Hall plaque in the records has long gone, and the two Qilin stone sculptures outside the hall are gone, and they all disappeared in the years.

But one thing is certain, this should be the place mentioned in the notes.

Reluctantly flipping through his notes, he raised his head and asked, "Is this the end of the notes?"

Duan Yunyou nodded, "It should be."

Gong Ziting looked at the blank pages at the back, and felt that it was not a fake, nor did he see any traces of being torn off, he was quite surprised and said: "How could the records disappear here, isn't it to survey the topography of Tianji Mountain? "

Duan Yunyou shook his head, "I've thought about this too, but I don't know what happened to stop the diary. It's hard for future generations to figure out what happened before the endless years, and I'm afraid only the person involved knows best."

After finishing speaking, he reached out to take back the notes, wrapped them in oiled paper again, and put them in his arms.

Gong Ziting watched eagerly. He actually wanted to see what was recorded in the front of the notes, but he was too embarrassed to ask for it, and it was inconvenient to ask for it, but he also remembered something, and said with a look of finally understanding: "No wonder the leader created Feiying. After helping, I like to search for desert exploration, and it turned out that I was looking for this temple.”

Duan Yunyou snorted self-deprecatingly, "I always thought that this temple was still buried under the desert, but I didn't expect it to be exposed long ago, and it became the nest of the Scorpion Gang. "

Gong Ziting asked strangely: "Isn't it written in the notes along the route?"

What he meant, according to the records all the way, it should be easy to find the general position, and there is no need to search around like before.

Duan Yunyou: "A hammer to the east and a hammer to the west, there is no route at all. The person who left this note should just write down what he thinks he should write down."

Gong Ziting nodded slightly, and he could understand that he might have recorded some things that he thought were meaningful or interesting, but he still frowned, and tried to ask: "Master, I read the whole article, but I didn't see the meaning of finding here and finding the kylin ginseng. What's the matter, isn't it a bit too lucky for us to spend this time?"

In his opinion, it was a waste of time.

Now that the secret has been revealed, Duan Yunyou no longer hides it from him, and lightly reminded him: "Grass and trees become elves, and they have become human because they are close to people. Suddenly, a unicorn who understands the beast appears. Where do you think it can get close to the Tao of the divine beast Qilin? I have thought about it, but I can’t think of any other place where it can get in touch with it except here, unless it descended from the fairy world.”

Having said that, Gong Ziting probably understood, "So you want to find clues from the murals?"

Duan Yunyou nodded: "Since the records say that there are engraved bionic pictures here, we should be able to judge a little bit of the living habits of the unicorn based on the engravings. The engravings on the top are blurred, but the ones buried below may not be so. Clear the accumulated sand and take a good look. a bit."

Gong Ziting fully understood now, but still doubted, looked around and said: "If you can learn the way of unicorn here, it must be grown here, but here let alone ginseng, any plant is not suitable for growing."

At this moment, two people broke in urgently from outside the hall, and the right protector, An Tianyin, came in with a man in the costume of the Scorpion Gang.

If Yu Qing saw it, he would recognize this person as one of the left behind members of the Scorpion Gang.

The two also flew to the inclined wall, and An Tianyin reported urgently: "The boss, Brother Tong brought an emergency, saying that Xu Fengji came with five men, No. 60, and was going to attack us."

The man wearing the costume of the Scorpion Gang is named Tong Zaitian.

Duan Yunyou frowned slightly, and asked him, "Isn't there only about 60 people left, how can there be no. [-] people?"

Tong Zaitian said: "Cao Dingkun went to Bailei City and recruited a group of newcomers in the name of looking for Qilin ginseng."

"Kirin ginseng?" Duan Yunyou and Gong Ziting lost their voices.

Tong Zaitian: "He doesn't know any clues about unicorn ginseng, it's just made up to trick people into joining the gang."

Duan Yunyou and Gong Ziting looked at each other, feeling speechless.
