Play Speak
Time seemed to freeze, and the entire space fell into a dead silence.
Wu Xie stared at Ah Ning with his eyes wide open, his eyes full of doubt and confusion. He seemed unable to believe what he saw, his body trembled slightly, his lips unconsciously opened, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
Ah Ning tilted her head and stared at Wu Xie quietly. Her eyes were clear and transparent, without any fear or nervousness, but with a hint of curiosity and doubt. She seemed to find Wu Xie's reaction very interesting, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
The two just stared at each other, neither of them breaking the strange silence. The air around them seemed to be frozen, making people feel a chill.
"Okay, let's set up camp right here!"
Following Aning's order, the mercenaries who had pointed their weapons at them put down their weapons, gathered in groups of three or four, and did their work in an orderly manner.
"Aning, will you really let them shoot?" Wu Xie asked desperately.
"Of course. After all, it's your uncle who is cooperating with us, not you. You are just an insignificant person to us." After Aning finished speaking, she went back to busy herself with her own things without looking back.
"Young Master San." Pan Zi hugged Wu Sansheng and called out to Wu Xie who was standing there in a daze.
Wu Xie, along with Pan Zi, Fatty and his unconscious Third Uncle, sat down not far from An Ning's camp.
Wu Xie and Pan Zi laid Wu Sansheng flat on a slightly flat stone and undressed him to find that Wu Sansheng's skin, which was hidden under his clothes, was densely covered with small centipedes, some of which were dead and some were still alive and moving.
"OMG, what's on him?" A yellow-haired foreigner walked over and saw Wu Sansheng's exposed skin. He immediately shouted in shock.
"I haven't asked you what you did to the Third Master!" Pan Zi couldn't control his temper anymore. He stepped forward and grabbed the man by the collar, and was about to swing at him with a clenched fist.
"He was already unconscious when we found him. Besides, if people knew that he had so many strange bugs on his body, who would be willing to carry him on their backs?" The foreigner, whose collar was grabbed, waved away Pan Zi's hand.
"What's wrong? What happened again?" Aning walked over after hearing the noise.
"Aning, can you ask the doctor in your team to see my third uncle? I'm afraid of him." Wu Xie had no medical supplies with him, so he could only ask Aning for help.
When Ah Ning saw the centipedes burrowing into Wu Sansheng's skin, she felt nauseous and waved back. A doctor in a white coat was brought over with his medical kit.
"OMG!!" The doctor was also shocked by the scene before him.
Wu Xie, Pan Zi, Fatty and Third Uncle got a tent with the help of An Ning.
After the doctor's treatment, Wu Sansheng's condition finally stabilized. Wu Xie left Pan Zi here to take care of his uncle, and he and Fatty went to negotiate a deal with An Ning.
While walking slowly towards An Ning's tent, Wu Xie turned back to take a look at their tent. Fatty felt sorry for Wu Xie, who had become haggard after experiencing so many changes, and stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder.
"Naive, don't look back. Since it's already like this, let it be like this! Being too persistent will only hurt yourself."
The fat man didn’t know what Wu Xie was chasing. It seemed as if everyone was trying to stop him, and also as if everyone was pushing him forward.
"Knowing it's impossible but still doing it." Wu Xie just said it self-deprecatingly.
Ah Ning was sitting in the tent, with some sketches and a projection lamp beside him. The moment he saw Wu Xie come in, he already had the upper hand.
"Wu Xie, you are here."
"You seem to have guessed that I would come back a long time ago." Wu Xie suddenly lowered his head and sighed, "That's right, I have nothing now, no one and no supplies. I really don't know who else to look for except you."
"What are your conditions? Or can your bargaining chips make me tempted to take you with me?" Aning just sat there, looking at Wu Xie with a smile.
"When my Third Uncle approaches you to cooperate on the underwater tomb, he should offer you a piece of snake-browed bronze fish as a bargaining chip."
Aning looked at Wu Xie in disbelief. She obviously didn't expect that Wu Xie actually knew what his third uncle used to reach a cooperation with them.
Wu Xie raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Don't be surprised. After going through so many things, if I still haven't made any progress, wouldn't that be too stupid?"
When Wu Xie slowly sat opposite An Ning, An Ning suddenly realized that Wu Xie in front of her was no longer the simple boy he used to be, but a man who was forced to grow up.
Wu Xie continued, "I also have one in my hand, and as far as I know, there are three of these things in total. The other one should be in the hands of the Fourth Grandpa of the Fourth Gate. My Third Uncle would never let the Fourth Grandpa come to this place for no reason."
Wu Xie's words were like a bombshell, causing An Ning's eyes to widen. She said in disbelief: "Wu Xie, you really impressed me! You are indeed a top student of Zhejiang University!" As she spoke, An Ning couldn't help but clap her hands.
"I guess there must be a huge secret in this snake-browed bronze fish. Otherwise, how could it drive you, or so many people, to try so hard to crack it. Even run to this place." Wu Xie took out a small and exquisite bronze fish from his pocket. The strange thing was that there were two tiny snake heads above the eyes of the fish, and the snake bodies were wrapped around the fish body.
"Yes, words were carved on the scales of the Snake-browed Bronze Fish using a secret method. This is the long-lost Jurchen language, and there are only forty-seven words on such a bronze fish. We have already deciphered the words on the piece your third uncle gave us." Aning turned on the computer and showed Wu Xie a report.
"This report is the secret of the bronze fish. It records that the construction of Yunding Palace was long before his time, and he was captured by King Wannu to repair it. And he once witnessed King Wannu entering a huge bronze door below. When he came out again, the originally old King Wannu became young again."
When Wu Xie heard this, he immediately became interested and asked hurriedly, "What? Doesn't that mean that the so-called immortality pursued by those emperors in history is real!"
Ah Ning nodded and continued, "Not only that, when we looked up information, we found that the legend about the Queen Mother of the West and immortality has been circulating in the Changbai Mountain area since ancient times."
Wu Xie frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I remember that when we were in the underwater tomb, Hei Xiazi once found a piece of Jurchen writing on the wall, which seemed to be about this magnetic mountain."
Ah Ning's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked, "Do you still remember those words? Perhaps this is the key to finding the Magnetic Mountain!"
Wu Xie shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The situation was urgent at the time, so I didn't read the text carefully. I only remember that it mentioned words like Cishan and Tiangong. But now that I think about it, these clues may all point to the same goal - the method of immortality."
Aning handed Wu Xie's snake-browed bronze fish to the old man beside her, hoping to decipher the mystery in it in a short time.
Now that they knew that the snake-browed bronze fish contained such a shocking secret, they could no longer hold back.
"I'm sorry Miss Aning, I'm not very knowledgeable and I only deciphered a small part of the text. But I didn't find what you said." The old man took off his glasses and looked at Aning with regret.
"What did it say in it?" Ah Ning asked anxiously.
"Inside is, there is a key to the huge bronze door. If you open the door at the wrong time, it will cause the fire of hell to burn the person who opens the door to ashes."
Wu Xie and An Ning also calmed down at this time.
