Chapter 325: A Thousand Clues
"Knock~"
Su Lie felt a pain in his forehead, as if he had smashed something hard, and the thing still made a noise, so he woke up, but he couldn't tell whether it was to wake up by smashing or waking up by the "bang".
Oh, it turned out that it was a pine cone that fell out of his head, and after waking up Su Lie, he rolled to the side and stopped on a pile of dead leaves.
Su Lie looked at the pine cone, and then looked up, just in time to see a mischievous squirrel burrowing into the conifers of the pine tree, and the big fluffy tail wagged a few times, as if cheering for victory.
"Heh~ little thing!" Su Lie couldn't help but upturn the corners of his mouth and laughed. This soft smile appeared on the face of a big man with a scar, which didn't look very compatible, but it was the usual smile of Mr. Su in the Truth-seeking School.
With just a moment of smiling, Su Lie remembered why he was lying under a pine tree, he should not be asleep, but unconscious after being attacked, and the person who attacked him was actually Dunshan!
I think that when he led the guards to resist the enemy, whenever the battle was stalemate, he Su Lie could sleep for days and nights, how could he fall under a tree to sleep in broad daylight? But this coma was not without gain, he actually saw Lord Zhong Kui again, and Lord Zhong also told him conclusively that from now on, the Great Wall Guards will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but will be under the control of his magistrate of Chang'an City?
This top-down management method, Su Lie couldn't figure it out after thinking about it. What is the relationship between the magistrate of Chang'an City and the current saint? Which of the two of them should obey whose arrangement?
Zhong Kui is a demigod, and the emperor is nominally the Ninety-Five Supreme, but in fact he is just a mortal fetus. The kings of all generations have dreamed of immortality, sitting on that dragon chair for thousands of years, in fact, who is not still dying of old age in the end? Therefore, the subordinate relationship between Zhong Kui and the Emperor must be that the Emperor obeys Zhong Kui, so if the top boss of the Great Wall Guards is changed to Zhong Kui, how can there be any more risks of persecution in the future?
Thinking of this, Su Lie actually felt a long-lost joy. He stood up and patted off the weeds and leaves on his body, and then remembered that Zhong Kui had given him the deadline to return to the Great Wall, which was five days.
"Five days ......," Su Lie muttered silently.
According to his wishes, he wished to rush to the Great Wall now, to meet those tens of thousands of siblings as quickly as possible, and to wear the armor he hung in the general's mansion as quickly as possible.
However, he could not leave immediately, there was still one important thing to be done, and he could not just leave quietly.
The big thing was to find the shield mountain.
Because of the appearance of Shield Mountain, the Great Wall Guards can once again stand on the Great Wall, which is an ironclad fact for Su Lie.
He never doubted anything Zhong Kui said, and the things that Dunshan said in the Guanyin Temple were still in his ears.
Shield Mountain and the Great Wall are inextricably linked, what is the reason for this? Su Lie felt that he needed to find out. He knew that Dunshan was one of the people who built the Great Wall, but the connection between the mecha people and the Great Wall at this time may have nothing to do with the construction of the Great Wall in the first place. This is his speculation, and he can't find any actual basis, relying on his sixth sense.
It stands to reason that a reader who has read thousands of books should not believe in predictions such as "feeling", but this time Su Lie couldn't get rid of that idea no matter what. He couldn't guarantee that he would get an answer when he saw Dunshan, but he had to take Dunshan to the Great Wall, there was no doubt about that.
Just now, I could see the back of Dunshan carrying the "big iron pot", but where did the people go at this time?
Su Lie looked around, removing the flowers and trees, but he couldn't see anything.
At this time, it was noon, the sun was shining on people's skin, Su Lie walked in a hurry, there was not much water in the deerskin water bag, and he saw the bottom of the water bag without drinking a few sips, so he had to sigh and drill into the depths of the forest, trying to see if he could find a stream or spring.
Not to mention that Su Lie was quite lucky, the shade of the trees in the dense forest hit the ground, it was very cool, his physical strength recovered quickly, and he walked steadily and quickly, and it didn't take long to hear the sound of rushing water.
"Well, there's a play! Finally found the water source! Su Lie was overjoyed and hurriedly rushed over to find the sound of water, but before he could get closer, he stopped, only hid behind the bushes and picked up a few branches that blocked his vision, and looked forward.
Where the woods became sparse, there was indeed a clear stream flowing, but Su Lie didn't dare to lean towards the stream, to be honest, he even had to move gently, for fear of making a noise. He was so careful, just because there was a mecha man shield mountain sitting by the stream.
Dunshan fell into a meditative state at this time, and he really didn't realize that there was a person hiding behind him, and that person was still spying on him.
Ever since he realized that he had been infected with the toxin released by the mysterious power, which was the true source of the demon, Dunshan had been very careful about his contact with people. Of course, he also analyzed the reason why the mysterious power can invade his body, and the thunder and lightning in the sky are the source of energy to maintain his body, so the mysterious power can take advantage of the void to enter. Human beings do not survive by thunder and lightning, but if they are hit, most of them will turn into a charred corpse, so it is unknown how much impact they can have on Su Lie.
However, more is better than less, and for the sake of insurance, it is better to be as far away from that General Su as possible. Even if there is no mysterious power to stir it up, Dunshan considers himself an extremely ill-fated and ominous person, and the happy times have disappeared with the passing of Luban 7, and the rest of his life can only be spent in the torment of loneliness.
At this time, he sat by the stream, thinking about Luban No. 7. That little guy must have been floating down the river for more than a hundred years in a comfortable boat, right? If you're still alive, it's time to grow into a big boy.
But although he is dead, didn't he say it before he died? Maybe you'll meet someone who can save him when you pass through somewhere!
Looking at the narrow stream flowing into the distance, Dunshan felt as if he had returned to the grassland hut, and after building the big boat, he put the small wooden remains of Luban No. 7 into it, but in a trance, he missed the moment to say goodbye to him.
Dunshan twisted his stiff iron neck, and looked in the direction of the jubilant stream, he knew that he was fantasizing, but he still imagined a carved red lacquer boat sailing downstream, and the cute wooden puppet was not lying in the cabin, but standing by the railing and waving at him......
Upstream of the stream, there are no boats coming.
Dunshan thought of Su Lie again. He looked at the shield in his left hand, and felt guilty in his heart.
Su Lie is the best good man in the world, or a mighty general, and he is the rescuer he himself rushed from the primeval era to move, how can he bear to hurt Su Lie with a land robbery shock? But if he didn't do that, Su Lie wouldn't leave, he thought he had the ability to take care of the mecha man, and he was willing to be the brother of the mecha man, but the mecha man didn't want to!
"Brother Su, I'm sorry, Dunshan hurt you, I can only apologize to you in a distant place." Dunshan muttered.
