Overshadowing the sun is always a demon

For the sake of Chengquan's words, Fadu certainly has no reason to refuse.

"There has always been a legend about Genghis Khan's mausoleum. When Genghis Khan was buried, for the sake of confidentiality, tens of thousands of war horses used to lay down the ground at the burial place, and an independent tree was used as a tombstone. In order to facilitate the future. In the burial place, in front of a female camel, she killed her own baby camel and sprinkled the blood on the cemetery. After the green grass sprouted in the second spring, the cemetery was no different from other places. In this kind of Under certain circumstances, when later generations offered sacrifices to Genghis Khan, they would lead the female camel to the cemetery. When the female camel came to the cemetery, she would whine endlessly thinking of the young camel that had been killed. The sacrificial priests held a grand memorial ceremony at the place where the female camel wailed. However, after the hump camel died, no one could find the tomb of Genghis Khan.” Now that the two parties had reached an agreement, Chengquan continued to explain, “According to the "Secret History of Mongolia", after the Mongolian royal family was buried First, use hundreds of war horses to level the surface of the tomb, then plant grass and trees on it, and then send people to guard the tomb for a long time until there are no traces on the surface before leaving, and those who know will be killed. It can be seen from this , this kind of legend is obviously not groundless."

Fadu couldn't help interrupting him: "But we all know that Genghis Khan's mausoleum is hidden at the bottom of Moving Haizi. What's the use of studying these?"

"Other information may be used to confuse people, but one piece of information is very important, that is, the royal tomb has always been guarded."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Fadu's mind: "Sand Sea Mermaid?"

"Although this possibility is not ruled out, I am more inclined to another possibility." Chengquan replied, "Someone is pretending to be a ghost, using the mermaid to blur the attention of the outside world."

Fadu shook his head: "I've heard singing from underwater. It's difficult for humans to sing underwater even with oxygen tanks, right? What's more, there are many voices, including men, women, and children. Where can I find so many people? play this scene?"

"That's where the doubts lie." Chengquan lowered his voice, "I suspect that there is something wrong with the people in Yucheng."

Fadu continued to shake his head: "Impossible, the singing I heard is very loud, far exceeding the number of residents in Yucheng."

Cheng Quan frowned: "We traced the trajectory of Haizi's movement all the way according to the records. Although we met several times, we never had the chance to get close, and we never heard the singing. You always say that you hear the singing. I really want to know about you." Where did you hear it?"

Fadu didn't dare to say anything, if he heard it in his dream, he had to explain why his dream was worthy of reference, and he might get rid of it all over again.

Seeing him refusing to answer in this way, Cheng Quan also kept his face cold and did not speak again. In the end, Old Uncle Wang came out to ease the atmosphere: "I just doubted it, but I didn't say anything. But having said that, the oasis in the desert and the semi-desert area There are quite a few small villages, but none of them can form a scale like Yucheng. Think about it, they don’t farm or do business, they just graze a few cattle and sheep. These hotels only have one or two tourists in half a year, and they can earn money. What kind of money? Normally, they should have problems supporting themselves, so where did these houses and modern facilities come from? Anyway, we should always pay more attention to the people in Yucheng."

Fadu thought for a while: "So the pile of firewood is indeed related to King Shahai's tomb?"

"Hey! What are you talking about!" Luo Jia broke in again without saying a word, scaring the people inside, and she was quite proud of herself, "Hahaha, what expressions are you all making? I saw a ghost." Like!"

Fadu asked: "Luo Jia, what's the matter with you?"

"The owner said that dinner is ready, so he told you to go down to eat!" Luo Jia pulled Fadu, "Let's go, let's go down first! I told the owner that you are only vegetarian, and he specially made eight vegetarian dishes for you. The restaurants in the big cities are poor! Hurry up and try it!"

It was not easy for Fadu to refuse, so he was dragged downstairs.

Just as Luo Jia was about to push the door, Fa Du grabbed her first: "Luo Jia, can we talk?"

"Okay, what do you want to tell me?" Luo Jia turned to look at him.

Yucheng relies entirely on diesel generators to obtain electricity. The voltage fluctuates from time to time, and the lights flicker slightly. Luo Jia's face flickers on and off in the light, and she is still smiling. Her eyes clearly say: If you dare to make me unhappy, you will Dead.

Fadu smiled wryly, this is obviously not the atmosphere for a showdown.

"What's the matter with you?"

"Luo Jia, you also know that some things cannot be forced. I have never thought about that. If you go on like this, you will delay yourself. I think..."

"You don't need to beat around the bush and reject me, don't you just feel that I'm so close to you and make you feel uncomfortable?"

"I... I have no other meaning..." Luo Jia finished Fadu's lines in one breath, leaving Fadu wondering what to answer.

"You don't have to feel uncomfortable, it's my business that I like you, it has nothing to do with you."

Fadu: ...

Luo Jia squinted her eyes and smiled brightly: "Let's go, the dishes are going to be cold!"

As usual, Luo Jia went over and grabbed Fadu's arm and moved in. The whole process was so natural that it seemed to have become a habit.The others didn't have any special reaction when they saw the two of them coming in. They should be used to it. After all, Fadu has a normal hairstyle now. As long as he doesn't say anything, no one can see the clue.But when Lao Gu saw this scene, he snorted disdainfully, and squeezed to other tables with the bowl.

Others had nothing to do with it, but Fadu still felt uncomfortable, and buried himself in eating when he was on the table, without even tasting what he was eating.While eating, he suddenly heard Luo Jia ask: "Old Gu and the others have already found the equipment for launching the water, and they will go to the firewood pile to tow the truck tomorrow. Do you want to go together?"

"Did you find the diving equipment so quickly?" Fadu's heart moved a little. He could easily find the diving equipment in the desert, which proved that the people in Yucheng really had a problem.

"At the beginning, I also thought it was strange. There is no justification for preparing diving equipment in a desert town." Luo Jia said vividly, "People have said that this is left by people who came to travel before, and it is also a pile of firewood. .”

"When they came to travel, they prepared the equipment, which means that they already knew that the water would rise." Fadu asked, "What about those who come to travel?"

"Where else can I go, let's go." Luo Jia laughed, "Do you think it's like being eaten by a monster in the water like an adventure novel?"

Fadu followed with a smirk: "Salih and Hassan have gone with you, and we can't go anywhere else, so let's follow to see if we can help."

While talking here, Li Fei hurried over to Luo Jia and asked, "Did you see Xiaomi? Where did she go?"

"Xiaomi has always been with you, you don't know, I don't even know!" Luo Jia replied impatiently, "Did you two quarrel again? She is probably hiding somewhere to make you worry. It's like this every time, are you annoying? You, a big man, can't let her order? Now, let's eat first, even if she has trouble with you, she won't have trouble with food, and she will definitely come out when she is hungry. "

"It's not a child anymore..." Li Fei smiled bitterly, sat down hesitantly, took a sip from the bowl on the table, and almost choked on the spot, "This is not milk tea!"

Luo Jia laughed hard: "Of course it's not milk tea, it's fish soup."

"Tsk tsk, it looks like milk tea..." Li Fei stirred the soup in the bowl and tried to take another sip. It’s very warm. Hey, boss, how is this soup made?”

The owner of the store was also very happy to hear him praise his craftsmanship: "This is the big white fish from the firewood spring with the unique pepper, coriander, nutmeg and cumin here. It can be boiled with spring water. It is absolutely natural. "

Fadu quietly stirred the fish soup in Luo Jia's bowl, and found that the fish meat was fine and tender, unlike any fish he had eaten before. overflowing.

Cheng Quan tugged his arm from the side: "Don't drink."

Fadu nodded, monks don't touch meat, even if it is delicious fish soup, he will never try it, okay?

Lao Gu ate the meat, still admiring in his mouth: "Such a big piece of fish meat, the size of the fish is really not small."

"Yeah, you are also lucky. We can usually eat some mutton in the desert, and the big white fish can only be caught when the spring water is full. Usually, you can't eat it."

"Boss, our car is still submerged in the pile of firewood, what kind of luck is it?" After saying this, everyone laughed.The shopkeeper knew that these people had no malicious intentions, so he smiled honestly and stopped talking.

Fadu paid close attention to the boss's reaction, but he still couldn't see any clues. He always felt that Xiaobai and Chengquan were too neurotic.

Uncle Wang suddenly said, "Boss, can you catch a big white fish?"

"You... are going to catch a big white fish?" The boss's smile suddenly froze on his face.

"Yeah, this fish is so precious, and I don't know when the water will rise and fall, so why not get a few more fish to dry in the sun? That way, they can be eaten at any time, and tourists can treat them as fish when they come. A special dish." When Uncle Wang said this, everyone agreed, and some people wanted to get some dried fish home for the family to taste.

"No, no, no, no." The boss shook his head like a rattle, "The big white fish is very ghostly, if you can't catch it, it depends on your luck with the net."

"Anyway, we're going to tow the truck tomorrow, why don't you lend us the net for a try..."

Before the old man could finish his words, the boss suddenly changed his face: "If I say no, then I won't. You think it's your fish pond? The big white fish is the god fish of our Yucheng, and every one we catch will be distributed to the whole city. After eating, I have to go to the firewood pile to burn incense. This time, you happened to meet and have such a good fortune. You really think it’s a local product. How much do you want? We can talk about everything here, but we can’t make fun of the big white fish. If you want to live here, you must abide by the rules here, if you don’t want to abide by them, get out.”

The boss slammed the door out with an empty basin, and everyone began to accuse Old Uncle Wang and Old Gu of talking too much and hurting others' simple beliefs.

Old Uncle Wang had a bitter face: "How do I know such rules?"

Everyone else ate very happily that night. Xiaobai sat on the side without saying a word, while Chengquan frowned as if the whole world owed him two hundred taels of money. Uncle Wang wanted to touch the fish soup several times, but was rejected Cheng Quan snatched it away and could only sigh and sigh all night.

Li Fei had enough energy to eat, so he left the table early to find Xiaomi. Luo Jia looked contemptuously: "When you quarrel, you can relieve your anger. What can you do if you win the quarrel? Can you win a prize? I really don't understand at all." Woman, if you coax me a little bit, nothing will happen? I'm only in a hurry now, and I deserve it."

The door was knocked open with a bang, and Li Fei almost rolled in.

"Old...Old Gu...Luo Jia..." His voice was trembling, his calves were shaking so much that he couldn't stand still, "Something happened! Something happened!"

Lao Gu hurried over to help him: "Don't panic, tell me what happened first?"

Li Fei suddenly cried out: "Xiaomi...Xiaomi is dead!"
