Reincarnation Train Restart [Unlimited]

Not long after they went back, Dali and Saang were called away again.

Afterwards, Ah You went into the room of Lu Cheng and the others, while Wu Xiajiu, Xiao Fang and Soy Sauce went to Professor Zhao's.

In the room of Professor Zhao, Tao Bin and others, a group of people gathered.

Xiao Fang took out the wrapped cloth bag from his arms, and laid it flat on the bed—the cloth shook off, and inside were three old-looking bamboo slips and books.

"This is..." Professor Zhao opened his eyes in surprise.

Mr. V briefly explained the origin of the three bamboo slips.

He asked: "Professor Zhao, can you understand the Xun people's characters recorded on it?"

As they expected, Professor Zhao nodded upon hearing the words, as expected, he understood.

Professor Zhao then squatted beside the bed and studied it carefully.

The three bamboo slips were opened one by one, and Professor Zhao spread them on the bed carefully. The bamboo sheets of these three bamboo slips were very thin, the characters were small, and the connecting threads had been broken many times.

Among them, two bamboo slips are engraved with characters of the Xun people, and the other one is engraved with patterns.

However, after a bamboo slip book was fully unfolded, a section of text in the middle was crossed out and destroyed.

Professor Zhao immediately showed pity and regret when he saw this, but he still cheered up and started researching as soon as possible.

At the same time, Mr. V motioned for someone to guard the door so as not to come back, but they didn't know, after all, these three bamboo slips were taken out secretly.

So Amao volunteered and stood guard at the door.

After studying for a while, Professor Zhao pushed his glasses and said, "This is indeed a history of the Xun people."

"Looking at this, it roughly means that the Xun tribe was a very powerful tribe a long time ago, with a large number of people in the tribe, and they lived in the canyon hanging from the sky for generations."

"But because of the pressure of life, they have fought everywhere, and the patriarch led them to attack the tribes that survived one after another."

"The Xun people have a lot of manpower, it's easy to go up and down the mountain, and they have the ability to communicate with the world and get blessings."

"Thus, the Xun tribe was always invincible, and in the end, they were the only tribe left in the entire Tianxuan Canyon."

"People from other tribes will either surrender, or they will become corpses, put into coffins, placed on the cliffs of the canyon and nailed to death."

"This is also one of the ways for the Xun people to show their achievements."

"At the same time, they have accumulated a lot of wealth after fighting everywhere..."

Speaking of this, Professor Zhao suddenly stopped, pointed to the crossed-out text on the bamboo slips, shook his head and sighed, "I think this should be the most important piece of information, what a pity."

But then, Professor Zhao pointed to the only bamboo slip book with patterns on it, and said: "This is a bit of a follow-up. The content of the depiction is that all the Xun people moved into this valley, and the time is after the war."

"This small gap should be the Yixiantian where we first came in, but it was engraved with a cross, which seems to mean..."

Professor Zhao couldn't help frowning, hesitant to speak, but he didn't seem very sure.

Wu Xiajiu said at this time: "I guess this means that after the Xun people enter the valley, they cannot come out from generation to generation."

After hearing the words, Swift asked with a puzzled face: "But why? Didn't the professor say that they have accumulated a lot of wealth?"

"Since there is no shortage of money or people, why do you have to be trapped in this small valley for the rest of your life?"

"Are they actively living here or are they forced? There must be a reason..."

Wu Xiajiu thought of the fish monster in the cage, and of the fish scales on the arm of the Xun tribe he saw today, and said, "There is a reason."

Just when Swift wanted to continue to ask why, Amao suddenly walked sideways into the room and quickly whispered: "Tali and Saang are back."

Professor Zhao hurriedly packed up the bamboo slips and books. Because of the haste, the bamboo slips and books almost fell when they were put into the cloth bag. Fortunately, Wu Xiajiu caught them.

Before wrapping it up in time, Wu Xiajiu quickly stuffed it into the quilt and piled it to the other side of the bed.

Tao Bin sat down and covered it completely with his body.

Wu Xiajiu said in a low voice: "These three bamboo slips cannot be taken away for the time being, so I will put them here first, Professor Zhao."

"Okay." Professor Zhao whispered.

So Wu Xiajiu, Xiao Fang and Soy Sauce got up and went out.

After meeting Sa Ang outside, Wu Xiajiu nodded at him as if nothing had happened, and then walked towards the door.

Xiao Fang crossed his hands behind his head, smiled at Sa Ang, looked him up and down and said, "Hey, where did you go just now?"

"It's none of your business." Saang said coldly.

Xiao Fang shrugged his shoulders and didn't care about his attitude at all.

Before they were about to leave, Sa Ang asked again: "What are you doing here?"

His eyes swept over the three of them.

Xiao Fang stopped in his tracks, and casually replied, "Let's come here to mourn our dead companions, can't we?"

Sa Ang didn't say anything, she frowned and left after watching Xiao Fang finish speaking.

Wu Xiajiu and the three returned to Dali's house.

Because of Xiao Yu's incident, Tuli's attitude towards them obviously became worse and worse, and became extremely bad. Seeing that Wu Xiajiu and the three had come back from outside, Tuli asked viciously where they had gone.

Wu Xiajiu pointed to Saang's house, and was about to turn around and go back to the room, but then, his gaze suddenly fell on the cuff of Dali's clothes, and said, "There are fish scales on it."

Dali lowered his head, raised his arm to look at it, and then brushed off the fish scales indifferently—the black fish scales with white edges fell on the ground, about the size of a fingernail.

After Tuli warned them again, he bent down, picked up his pannier and harpoon and went out.

Wu Xiajiu went back to the house with Xiao Fang and Soy Sauce.

Ah You was not in the room, probably still with Lu Cheng and the others.

Wu Xiajiu said: "That fish scale doesn't look like it's from a fish."

Xiao Fang: "I can see that the fish scales on the fish monster we saw that night are obviously different from the real fish scales. They are round in shape, very thick and hard, with white edges."

"The fish scales on Dali's cuffs are from that fish monster..."

"He and Sa Ang went out just now, did they go to deal with the fish monster?"

Xiao Fang's thumb and index finger were seven, and he held his chin to think, and finally made a joke: "Have they gone to scrape the fish scales for the fish monster? They don't want to stew it to eat."

Soy Sauce frowned, and said with a disgusted and unimaginable expression: "How could I eat it? If I really wanted that, I wouldn't have thrown that fish monster into the river in the middle of the night."

Wu Xiajiu: "It should have been accidentally stained, for example, while struggling."

As for which party is struggling, it goes without saying that this situation is already obvious.

At this moment, Xiao Fang seemed to think of something and said: "Monastery Master, could it be that Sa Ang's face and legs are..."

He put his hands together and made a clicking gesture.

Wu Xia hummed for a long time, and said: "Saying should have been punished by the Xun tribe. He was tied up and thrown into a wooden boat, and stayed alone on the river overnight."

"But he was lucky to survive."

"I think, if you can survive the punishment of the Xun clan, you can forget your mistakes."

"Then what did he do wrong?" Soy Sauce asked.

Wu Xiajiu was thoughtful, and when he was about to speak, he heard the door knock, and then Ah You opened the door and walked in.

He shut his mouth instantly and stopped talking.

……

The day passed quickly, and night fell.

However, Dali's snoring didn't sound, he opened the door and went out without any attempt to conceal his movement, and soon, the sound of footsteps disappeared.

It was still early that night, Ah You and Wu Xiajiu were not asleep yet.

Ah You leaned closer to Wu Xiajiu and said, "Do you want to see what he's doing?"

"Xiaoyu is dead. The Xun tribe must be very wary of us now, waiting to catch us. How dare you go out at this time?" Wu Xiajiu said.

"See if you have the guts."

"No, I want to sleep."

Ah You raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth curled up, and Wu Xiajiu laughed, "Okay, you can go to sleep, sleep inside, I'm going out to have a look, so as not to wake you up when I come back."

After all, Ah You actually left the room and went out.

Xiao Fang lay on the bed with his face propped up, looked at Wu Xiajiu and said, "Master, don't we really want to take a look? Maybe we can find something, haha."

At the end of the conversation, Xiao Fang couldn't help but yawned.

Wu Xiajiu said: "If I don't take a good rest tonight, I will die suddenly. I will talk about it tomorrow."

He squeezed the space between his eyebrows, and just about to lie down, he remembered what Ah You said before he left, and decided to sleep on the side of the bed tonight.

Seeing this, Soy Sauce also lay down to rest.

Tonight, except for Ah You who "blatantly" went out in front of Wu Xiajiu and others, the two rooms were very quiet.

Before midnight, Wu Xiajiu vaguely felt a movement on the door of the room, and he suddenly realized that Ah You should be back.

Sure enough, after the door opened, Ah You walked in quietly, and then lay down beside him, with a slight night chill on his body.

Not long after that, there was another movement outside the door, this time it was Tuli.

But Dali didn't go into his room first, but silently opened a gap in their room door, and looked in—probably to see if they were all in the room, and whether the number of them was complete.

After a while, the door was closed again.

Wu Xiajiu turned over, turned his back to Ah You, gradually sank into consciousness, and fell asleep again.

……

Early the next morning, Lu Cheng walked out of the room.

There were dark circles under his eyes, which looked very serious, as if he hadn't slept well all night, and he coughed more and more frequently, and his expression couldn't hide his anxiety and irritability.

Lu Cheng and Ah You looked at each other for a moment, then moved away.

Today, Professor Zhao asked Sa Ang to take him to the patriarch Saiha, and personally proposed to study the hanging coffin on the cliff.

Those in the valley are not allowed to study, let alone walk around indiscriminately, but it is always okay outside the valley.

Saiha agreed with a gloomy face, but at the same time asked Saang and Dali to go out with them.

Professor Zhao has no comment.

When Wu Xiajiu met Mr. V and others, Mr. V whispered: "I asked Professor Zhao to propose to leave the valley, just in time for us to study the hanging coffin on the cliff outside."

"They have ropes and tools for climbing the cliff here."

"When the time comes, Anxing, Amao and others will distract Dali and Sangang, let's find the location of the 'dragon'..."

What Mr. V is talking about is naturally the "dragon" pattern formed by the hanging coffin.

Wu Xiajiu nodded, glanced at Lu Cheng, Ah You and the others, and they followed suit. I don't know what Ah You saw when he went out last night.

Passing through the exit of the gap between the sky and the sky, the two rafts used to come here still exist impressively.

Dali kicked the raft and said impatiently, "How do you want to study?"

An Xing glanced at the rope used for climbing, it was just an ordinary hemp rope, he frowned and asked, "Is there no way up the cliff?"

Tuli: "No, if you want to climb up to study the hanging coffin, you can only use these ropes, or go back."

"But, if there is no way, how are those hanging coffins placed?" An Xing was puzzled.

Professor Zhao replied at this time: "It is very difficult to dig a road on the cliff. Since there is really no plank road, we can only use human power to lift it up bit by bit."

"In ancient times, technology was underdeveloped, and this kind of stupid method was used."

Wu Xiajiu remembered that the bamboo slips said that the people of the Xun tribe were all extremely powerful, and turned his head to look at Tuli and Saang, thinking that he didn't know how strong they were.

Wu Xiajiu asked the two Xun people, "Can you all know how to crawl?"

"Nonsense." Dali sneered.

As for Saang, she remained silent as usual.

Wu Xiajiu and Mr. V looked at each other.

Mr. V stepped forward and pressed Anxing and Amao's shoulders and said, "If you don't know how to climb, why don't you find someone to teach you, and the temple master and I will go up first."

After finishing speaking, Mr. V patted the shoulders of both of them meaningfully.

Anxing and Amao immediately realized what Mr. V meant. After all, they had discussed it in the room before coming here.

So, the two began to go up to talk to Dali and Saang, pestering them.

The hanging coffin pattern on the map is on the opposite side of the valley.

In other words, they still have to go there on a raft.

Although Professor Zhao is no longer young, he is no stranger to climbing. Due to the nature of his work, he often needs to be "forced" to exercise when going out, so he has to go together.

Wu Xiajiu happened to pass Ah You when he was walking towards the raft.

Ah You grabbed Wu Xiajiu's wrist, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Do you want to know what happened last night?"

Wu Xiajiu stopped and turned his head: "You want to tell me?"

Ah You: "Exchange, how about it?"

"Everyone knows that we come here for another purpose. The Xun people are very unfriendly and they are a threat to us."

"So, when there is a common enemy, we are no longer at odds with each other, are you right?"

"That's only temporary." Wu Xiajiu said calmly, "I don't trust you, just like you don't trust us completely."

"However, it is indeed possible to consider a temporary cooperation."

"Tell me, what do you want in exchange?"

Ah You: "I know that you suddenly proposed to come to the cliff of the Tianxuan Canyon to study the hanging coffin. You must have discovered something."

"In the past two nights, you and Xiao Fang went out secretly, once to the river."

"Another time, I guess, sneaked into the house of the head of the Xun clan, and you found some clues there, just tell me this."

In the last sentence, Ah You said it almost by Wu Xiajiu's ear, and his lips were only a few millimeters away from the pinna.

Because of this, when the hot air was exhaled, the skin of Wu Xiajiu's ears immediately turned red sensitively.

Ah You watched it amusingly, but in order to avoid the embarrassment and anger of the person in front of him, he still left a little distance after speaking.

Wu Xia glanced at him for a long time, and said in a low voice, "Have you ever gone out with us?"

Otherwise, why is Ah You's tone so sure.

Ah You was noncommittal, and replied: "I didn't follow you, but when you came back at night for the first time, your body smelled of fish and water vapor."

"The second time, there is something in Xiao Fang's arms."

"Although I didn't open my eyes, I can hear pretty well. It's the sound of wood chips or bamboo chips colliding."

"I don't care what it is, but if you want to find the most research-worthy items in the entire Xun clan, of course you have to go to the house of the Xun clan leader to find them."

"I guessed it, but looking at your expression, I obviously guessed it right, didn't I?"

Ah You finally smiled at Wu Xiajiu.

Wu Xia glanced at Lu Cheng, San Ma and Lao Hou without a trace for a long time - they were whispering something on the other side.

Old Hou obviously looked here suspiciously.

Ah You didn't turn his head, but said softly: "I didn't tell Lu Cheng and the others about these discoveries. I can tell you clearly that I am not the same as them."

"They are thinking about how to kill me quietly in the future, and I have to find a chance to survive, are you right?"

"And this is just an exchange between me and you, it doesn't mean that Lu Cheng and the three of them."

Wu Xiajiu asked: "What is the purpose of your coming to the Xun clan?"

Ah You raised his eyebrows: "What about you? This is another exchange."

Wu Xiajiu: "It's up to you to find someone."

He didn't lie, Professor Zhao and Tao Bin were also two of "them", and the purpose of coming here was indeed to find someone.

Therefore, what Wu Xiajiu said was not guilty, and his eyes did not evade, he was very "kind and sincere".

Ah You took a deep look at him and said, "Look for something."

Who are you looking for?What are you looking for?

Talking to each other is the same as not talking.

The two looked at each other and were silent for a while.

At this time, Mr. V called Wu Xia for a long time. They had pushed the raft into the water and it was time to go.

And Lu Cheng and the others were also waiting for Ah You on another raft.

Ah You slightly leaned closer to Wu Xiajiu and said, "I'll come to you in a while."

After speaking, he left.

After Wu Xiajiu stepped onto the raft, Xiao Fang came over and asked curiously, "Monastery Master, what were you talking about just now? Why did you chat for so long?"

Besides Wu Xiajiu, there were Xiaofang, Soy Sauce, Mr. V, Professor Zhao, and Tao Bin on this raft. They were obviously curious and puzzled.

As for the others, in order to avoid being easily discovered by Dali and Saang, they wanted to come to the cliff side of the Tianxuan Canyon and look for the hanging coffins marked with key symbols.

Swift, Liu Jinxi and the others stayed on the other side of the bank, pretending to study the hanging coffin there, and took advantage of the opportunity to draw the attention of the two Xun people.

Taking advantage of the distance between the two rafts, Wu Xiajiu briefly talked about the conversation with Ah You just now.

He said: "I don't think he seems to be lying. Since their relationship seems to be close to each other, we can indeed exchange information with each other."

Mr. V agreed: "That's right, it's true that we can cooperate temporarily, and it won't hurt us to learn more about things."

"What's more, Saang also went out in the middle of the night last night. Except for Ah You, none of us took any action."

"Furthermore, from the conversation between him and you, we can know that Ah You is not stupid. Sometimes, this will become an important clue."

The meaning of Mr. V's last paragraph is obviously talking about the role of "NPC".

Soy Sauce understood and nodded.

Wu Xiajiu looked into the distance along the direction of the water flow, and said, "The river in the valley is obviously no longer safe, we can no longer approach it at night."

"If you still want to enter the deep pool of the fjord, the only way to get there may be this river."

"And there are no boats outside the valley, except, of course, our raft."

"Does that mean that the Xun people will never get close to the fjord during this period?"

Presumably they will not go to pick ranunculus near the deep pool of the fjord again.

Otherwise, the Xun people can also enter the river from the Tianxuan Grand Canyon.

"Perhaps." Mr. V said.

At this time, Tao Bin suddenly said, "We are here."

They were at the bottom of a cliff.

Mr. V paddled to an apparently low hanging coffin.

Soy sauce found a rope to tie the raft to a piece of wood that was knocked on the cliff to hold up the hanging coffin, so that the raft would not float away with the water.

Not long after, Lu Cheng and others also came to the bottom of this cliff and tied the raft to a place.

Lu Cheng glanced at Wu Xiajiu and the others, grabbed Ah You's arm, squeezed it tightly, and said in a low voice, "Are you really just talking about Xiao Yu's death just now?"

The corner of Ah You's mouth curled up, but there was no smile in the eyes exposed on the right.

He also grabbed Lu Cheng's wrist, pulled it away, and said, "Otherwise, what else can we say, Uncle Lu."

"He just suspected that Xiaoyu was not the only one who went out that night, so he wanted to ask me something. Don't worry, Uncle Lu, I know what to say and what not to say."

"Besides, they are obviously hiding something. If I can ask, Uncle Lu, wouldn't that help us? What do you think?" Ah You said slowly and unhurriedly.

There was a dull pain in the position of Lu Cheng's arm that was torn apart by Ah You. He paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "You're right, Uncle Lu misunderstood."

"They must have discovered something when they came here. Remember to follow the prison, and you must tell Uncle Lu when you come back, Ah You."

"Don't forget, your father and I are life and death friends."

Ah You chuckled, and said in a low voice, "Of course I won't forget."

Afterwards, people on both sides began to get ready, each tied a rope to their bodies, and took safety measures.

Tao Bin and Soy Sauce don't need to climb up, just wait below.

After all, climbing a cliff is not considered safe.

Although there are hanging coffins all over the cliff, as well as the long iron nails and wood supporting the hanging coffins, as far as the eye can see, there are countless places to stay.

But the cliff is still steep and steep, and they also need someone to support them below.
