68. Chapter 71
three days later.

A young man who described Kuga as if he hadn't slept for a long time was brought to the villa. His hair was like a bird's nest, his clothes were ragged, and he smelled like the smell of overnight alcohol. The only thing that made him feel that he was not crazy was that Those quiet eyes.

"Why are you running?"

The scruffy man suddenly trembled, his face was pale, but he didn't say a word.

His body was shaking like a sieve, he suddenly turned around and ran towards the courtyard gate, but the gate was blocked by a huge figure.

The sloppy man bumped into this figure like hitting a rock.

"How can you be presumptuous in front of the little prince!"

Zhao Hulu grabbed the man's shirt from the nape of his neck, lifted it into the air, and said in a muffled but fierce voice, "Say, whatever the little prince asks you, you can answer whatever you want. If you dare to say something wrong, I will slap you." You slap!"

Xia Guang smiled and didn't care too much, just asked again: "Why did you run?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Hulu slapped him directly, and the man felt that a gravity brought his head to the side, making him dizzy.

"Didn't you hit it when you said it was wrong?"

The sloppy man said with a sad face.

Zhao Hulu said coldly: "Sajia will let you try your strength first."

Xia Guang took a look at this big man who was usually muffled, but he didn't expect that he still had some tricks.

And after this operation, the sloppy man seemed to be awakened by a beating, but the trembling of his body still did not stop, and his eyeballs twitched left and right.

Xia Guang understood, waved his hand and said to the surrounding guards: "Go down."

Soon, only he, Zhao Hulu, and this sloppy man were left in this open space, and only then did the latter slowly open his mouth and spit out two words: "There is a ghost."

A gloomy breath suddenly appeared in the air.

Zhao Hulu snorted coldly, and his big futon-like hand was about to slap again.

The sloppy man hurriedly said: "What I said is true! There is really a ghost, there really is, it is chasing me, because I saw it, I didn't mean it, I just lost my way in the desert, I just seeing that tomb
At that time, I was very thirsty and surrounded by deserts. When I saw the forest, I thought it was an oasis, so I ran over there.

I didn't mean to, I really didn't. "

He seemed to be in a state of extreme agitation, so much so that Zhao Hulu slapped him again to wake him up.

Xia Guang thought for a while, then continued: "Men Hulu, put him down."

Then he looked at the scruffy man who was kneeling on the ground and coughing heavily: "I don't know if there are ghosts, but if you don't make it clear, maybe you will become a ghost today, understand?"

The scruffy man's body trembled, and then he spoke eloquently. It turned out that he didn't tell all the news about the Tomb of the Sword God.

At this time, it seemed that he had completely given up, and with the addition of fear, he said everything.

This man's name is Yan Xiu. Although the name is delicate, he is not a scholar, not even a down-to-earth person. He is a half-wind matchmaker. It is a bit of a wild way in this area, and more than three months ago, he got the news early , It is said that another group of caravans was intercepted on the outskirts of the desert, and the camels carrying the cargo scattered around.

He did not notify the government, but went out of the customs alone with a fluke mentality, wanting to make a fortune. If he bumped into a camel, he could take the goods it carried as his own.

But he didn't meet the camel, so he lost himself in the desert. It was midsummer at that time, and the temperature in the desert was extremely high. An "oasis" suddenly appeared in the distance, and he ran to it in a hurry, but no matter how far or how long he ran, the "oasis" was still in the sky.

Only then did he wake up to the fact that this was a mirage, a mirage, very false, it was clearly in front of his eyes, but in fact it was in the sky.

then
Just when he was frustrated, he found that he had reached the edge of the "mirage".

It was as if he had encountered a certain bubble, and he was already halfway inside, and then he saw the dense mountain road, which was silent, not even the sound of insects, behind him was the desert, but here was indeed forest.

He just didn't think much about it, thinking that he was lucky, and then walked along the dilapidated and broken main road of the mountain road. As he walked, he suddenly felt something was wrong, as if something was staring at him in the dark .

He was horrified, and quickly turned his head to look around, but the forest was very dense, and there were countless ancient python-like green vines and dead vines entangled with each other, hanging upside down, and the humidity was extremely heavy. It didn't look like an oasis at all, but like It is another world that is incompatible with the desert.

Only then did he understand the source of the strange feeling, which was the humidity and the pupil-like gap between the vines.

He had only heard of this kind of place in legends, and it might be a relic that stayed in the space gap.

Retreat or keep searching?

He struggled a little, seeing that he had walked for so long without any accident, he just wanted to go forward, if he saw that the situation was not good, he would run away again, otherwise luck came and he couldn't grasp it, he was not reconciled.

There are usually unimaginable treasures or inheritances in this kind of ruins. If you can get a little, you will have no worries in this life.

In the follow-up exploration, he saw a well as he wished, and the water in the well had already gushed out. After a little trial, he felt that it was non-toxic, but he couldn't bear the burning thirst, so he knelt down by the well and took a deep breath. I drank it in a big gulp.

Halfway through the drink, his mind became more and more clear. At this moment, he saw his own reflection in the water. It was a pale woman's face covered by black hair! !
He was terrified, and then watched the woman slowly brush her hair away.

I thought I was going to die, but I was dragged out by a force. The man had a beard and white hair, like a savage, ran to a certain place, and hurriedly said: "Tell me!" Son of Heaven, Xia Dun is still alive."

The white-haired savage spoke very fast, as if he was racing against time, and he was afraid of something, and then threw him far away.

Chi.
As if he got out of a certain foam again, he was lying in the desert, and only felt a little bit of warmth in the midsummer temperature like a fire, and his frozen limbs began to recover slowly.

Afterwards, the desert fell into twilight, and the weather entered a rare and brief period of peace. He took advantage of this time to escape back to the Yanshan Pass and entered the pass before the night ban.

Thinking of the white-haired savage's instructions, he thought he was the savior after all, so he reported the truth to the government, but maybe he had selfish intentions, so he only said it was a mirage, but not a relic.

The prefect naturally knew who "Xia Dun" was, so he rushed out of the Jiange, passed Hangu, and reported it to the emperor, and then Xia Guang came here to investigate.

Later, Yan Xiu honestly stayed at home for a long time, but one day, he saw the reflection of the woman with long hair covering her face in the water tank at home. At that time, he thought he was dead, but the woman Just let out a shrill laugh, and then spit out two words: "Come back."

Yan Xiu naturally didn't go back, but soon he felt internal organs began to bleed, as if a hand was crawling in his abdominal cavity, he went to the famous doctors all over the city, but they all said it was not a disease, and he also found a blind fortune-teller, who just said " The trouble should end it".

Yan Xiu's body was weakened day by day, he knew that he had to go back, it was a fight, between life and death, he also forgot the horror of the female ghost, and rode a horse overnight to leave the customs, but halfway He was intercepted by the officers and soldiers of Xidu, and brought back to this courtyard to meet the little prince.
