"I'm sorry about this matter. It's a bit complicated to say. I really wanted to find you, but I didn't want to use this method. I didn't know before Master Zhahe and the others lured you here. I originally wanted to wait for this After the incident is over, I will find you in China through legal channels, and you should be the person I am looking for."

After John finished speaking, he seemed to feel that the logic of his words was confusing, so he couldn't help but sighed.

"Let me start again, maybe you have time to listen to me tell a story? At this time, I don't want us to have disputes here, and the last one can't get out."

John admitted that he entered the country illegally, and he also brought armed men like Mange with him. Jiang Siyin must be far away from such a dangerous person at ordinary times, so he would call 110 without thinking about it, but now the sky is high and the emperor is far away. He could only choose to endure his anger and listen to him patiently.

"I don't know when, I've been having the same dream over and over again."

"In the dream, I was walking in the forest. I seemed to be looking for someone. I searched and searched for someone. I woke up like this, but there was no result. This dream lasted for many years, and finally one day, probably three or four years ago, It changed, I went from looking for someone to finally finding that person in my dream."

"I ran after him, grabbed the man's arm, and asked him why he abandoned me, why he ran away with his things, and abandoned his own brother. The man tried to explain something to me, but I was so angry that I couldn't listen. , I just punched him down, grabbed him by the collar, and told him that this would kill both of us."

When Jiang Siyin heard this, he could hardly control his expression.

He barely suppressed his shock, and within a few seconds of John's temporary pause, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"In the dream, you are also British?"

"Yes, I'm British. In dreams, in reality, both." John replied, looking at him with a bit of meaning in his eyes.

Jiang Siyin lowered his head to hide his gaffe, but he was a student after all, and he was like a transparent white paper in front of veterans like Mange. Everyone could see that John's story shocked Jiang Siyin a lot.

"But that man didn't listen to me. He insisted on leaving. I couldn't stop him, so I could only watch him leave. Later, I was chased by a group of people. They shot me to death, and my dream woke up. This dream has been repeated over and over again for many years. I have taken sleeping pills and consulted a psychiatrist, but nothing has improved. Finally, I began to want to explore the source of the dream. I searched forests in many places around the world, and finally confirmed that it should be It’s here, in Yunnan, China. That’s why we meet here, my friends, if we can meet in this kind of place, I think we must be destined people in the old Chinese saying.”

After listening to John's narration, He Shu spoke before Jiang Siyin spoke.

"Oh my God! I'm so touched by your words. Is that why you entered the country illegally?"

The exaggerated aria combined with the irrelevant yin and yang aura almost made Oda laugh out loud. She was so anxious about the situation that she bit her lower lip to hold back the blurted laughter.

John blinked, as if he didn't understand his sarcasm.

"I heard that the forest management here is very strict and no one is allowed to trespass in the virgin forest area, but there is no restriction in Myanmar. We enter from there with guns. There is no national border in the forest, and we may accidentally cross the border. Yes, when we go out, if we are in China, I will go to complete all the formalities immediately, sorry!"

He said that there are indeed facts. Myanmar is still in a state of civil war. In name, a gun license is required to hold a gun. However, there are not a few people who hide guns privately. Often those who dare to take risks and cross the border from there are all drug dealers and smugglers. There are few like John.

"This classmate, if I'm not mistaken, you are also having that dream, right?"

John looked at Jiang Siyin.

Jiang Siyin nodded: "Yes, my dream is similar to yours, the difference is—"

He hesitated for a moment, but still said it: "The difference is that I am the one who was chased and asked for something."

John's eyes were burning: "That thing, what you dreamed about, is it a mirror?"

Jiang Siyin didn't speak, but his expression answered the question.

John murmured: "Sure enough, sure enough! This is God's guidance in the dark. We two will meet after all. I think we may have been brothers or close friends in the previous life, because this mirror is scattered, but in the end To meet again because of the mirror..."

"and many more!"

He Shu interrupted again annoyingly. He really couldn't understand the foreigner's expressiveness on the protection of the bodyguards, and he was very suspected of cheating Jiang Siyin.

"It's not because of you, we won't be here now, our clothes are soaked, we may have a cold and sickness, you brought my friend here, and you want to bow your head to him, and even this innocent lady has become your meat ticket , Now you are talking about the reunion of friends, you might as well share the food and clean clothes first, and then talk slowly after we go out."

John smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, it was Master Ne Win who arrested them. They are not under my control. I just heard that I was coming to find something, and they happened to be on the same road."

He turned and whispered something to Mange, then turned to face them again.

"I'll ask Mange to give you some food first. I don't have any dry clothes, and I'm completely soaked. We can find a way to build a fire and then leave here together."

Mange handed over the gun to his subordinates, came over with a backpack, and brought out a lot of food for them, including crispy noodles, individual military rations, etc., as well as unopened mineral water.

Guanghan picked up a bottle of mineral water, opened it, took a sip, and then handed it to He Shu.

Because of John's attitude and frankness, everyone reluctantly let go of their prejudices and sat together.

It was out of the question to make a fire, and it was so damp that finding those candles would have been an accident.

Everyone took off their coats one after another and wrung out the water. The men simply took off their shirts, dried their bodies and then put on their clothes. It was better than getting sick from being stuffy in the water vapor. Oda was embarrassed. She was soaked all over, but she couldn't just undressed.

Seeing this, He Shu said, "Go change behind the stone statue, and I'll help you watch out."

Xiaotian looked at Mange's group of mercenaries with hesitation.

John also said: "Ma'am, don't worry, we won't have any malicious intentions."

Only then did Oda stand up and walk behind the stone statue.

At this time, a man with an oriental face also came out from the shadow on the right side of the mountain temple.

"There is a side door at the back, but it was sealed. I tried it, but it couldn't be opened."

He said to John, glanced at the crowd, paused for a moment on Guang Han, nodded his head, and smiled slightly.

Guang Han did not respond, not even nodding his head.

He Shu leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Do you know him?"

Guanghan shook his head slightly.

He Shu understood that the other party only greeted the strongest people.

"Let me introduce. This is Nakamura, my friend. I have been searching here just now, and Hiroya has seen it. Others probably haven't." John said, "You Orientals should have a common language."

Nakamura said lightly: "I only have a common language with the strong."

John didn't get angry when he was slapped, as if he had gotten used to Nakamura's temper for a long time.

On the contrary, He Shu took it seriously: "That's right, I only have a common language with citizens who don't have US military bases."

Nakamura squinted his eyes, and for the first time looked at He Shu beside Guanghan.

In his opinion, the other party is like an inconspicuous weed attached to a towering tree. He may be a bit capable, but it will never make Nakamura look at him seriously until He Shu said this.

Nakamura snorted: "My friend, I hope your ability can be as hard as your mouth."

He Shu immediately responded: "I also hope that your knees will not be as soft as the prime minister of your country!"

As soon as this remark came out, Nakamura's face darkened immediately.

He overestimated his own patience and underestimated He Shu's ability to talk.

What kind of person is He Shu? He fights with Fengfeng every day and has rich experience in actual combat. What's more, Fengfeng once said that he tracked down a group of foreigners in the forest, and was chased by one of them with a paper bird. hold on.

Needless to say, he can put a paper bird shikigami. Among these people, there is only one Nakamura.

"New enmity" plus "old enmity", it's strange why He Shu didn't say something against Nakamura.

"Nakamura!"

Before Onmyoji had an attack, John spoke to comfort him.

"Now we're all stuck here, arguing is useless, only cooperation, maybe we can get out."

What he said was the truth, and no one refuted it.

John said again: "Let me talk about my opinion first. I think it is a very strange thing that such a house appears in this kind of place. Well, the Orientals may prefer to call it a temple, but it may It is also the key to our departure..."

Before the words were finished, Oda's exclamation came from behind the stone statue.

"There seems to be words here!"

Everyone was shocked, and immediately went over with a lamp.

The stone statue is very old, and the face of the robe has long been blurred. Not to mention what the real statue looks like, you can't even tell which dynasty or generation it was left behind. Before He Shu and the others came, John chatted with Nakamura a little I think this may have been left over from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the years of the Republic of China, because at that time, in order to avoid the flames of war, there were probably small-scale villagers who came here to live temporarily. As an emergency shelter, after all, no one would have found this place if it hadn't been for the rising water level that caused the subsidence, or groundwater seepage.

But now, Oda actually said that there are words, which made everyone excited. Maybe the age of the stone statue has been finalized, and what key clues can be found!

"right here!"

Oda's hand touched the protrusion between the stone statue's feet and legs. It looked like it was under the hem of the robe. It didn't face the crowd. You had to touch it with your hands to feel the uneven writing marks. No wonder the other people turned around just now. I didn't notice it when I circled.

Just now when Oda took off his pants and twisted the water, he had to take off his shoes first, so he couldn't stand stably. He needed to reach out to support the stone statue, and he touched these words randomly.

Nakamura was quite concerned about everything here. He first took the emergency light to illuminate it, and bent over to look at it.

"Jianxing ... 13 years ... the honor of the people ..."

Nakamura thinks that he is an outlier in John’s team. He not only speaks Chinese fluently, but also knows Chinese. The word "pig" in the word "pig" made a fuss, thinking it was a curse.

But even so, Nakamura paused every word, and it was very difficult for him to read. After staring at the back for a long time, he could only shake his head.

"The words on the back are too vague to read at all."

He had to get out of the way and let He Shu and Guang Han go over to look at it. Everyone took turns to look around, and they could only recognize the words that Nakamura read.

"The 13th year of Jianxing sounds like a year name of an ancient Chinese dynasty?" John wondered.

"It's the year name, but there are dynasties with this year name in Chinese history. I remember at least four or five of them." Nakamura obviously has a lot of research on Chinese history, and he talked eloquently, "Don't say anything else. In the Three Kingdoms period alone, there were two people who used the year name of Jianxing. They were the Empress Liu of the Shu Han Dynasty and Sun Liang, the last emperor of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. Local separatist regimes, they all used the year name Jianxing."

A Japanese onmyoji, who is so familiar with Chinese history, these year titles can even be called unpopular to ordinary people, but he came up with them easily, without thinking, Jiang Siyin and Xiaotian were surprised, but He Shu was in his heart Secretly vigilant.

It doesn’t matter if you say he is prejudiced or he holds grudges. John just made a lot of effort to clean up his illegal entry, but it is difficult to conceal their purpose of coming here to find a mirror. If He Shu wants to stop him, he has no doubts. At that time, there will be conflicts between the two sides. The guns in Mange's hands are loaded with bullets. Under the ground of this kind of primeval forest, even dead bodies can't be found.

But on the surface, He Shu still pretended to be disapproving, and taunted the radical general.

"After talking for a long time, you don't know when it happened, but you are still pretending to be an expert!"

Nakamura was really sullen.

"According to my speculation, this place is located in the southwest, and it was under the jurisdiction of the Shu Han in ancient times. The Jianxing here should refer to Liu Chan, the empress of the Shu Han!"
