I couldn't believe my eyes and patted my head: "So you have been following us! That message, what Dolma said to us - could it be -"

"Yes, that's what I asked her to tell you temporarily. In desperation, I had no other way. Those things are a long story." Wen Jin said, crawled into the gap, clasped his hands together and made a gesture, and put It was used as a mouthpart and made a series of "gurgling" sounds.

I wondered what she was doing. Was she greeting those snakes? I heard a gurgling echo coming from the depths of the gap. After a while, someone squeezed out from inside. When I looked, I found that the person turned out to be Menyoupin.

He squeezed next to us, looked at Wen Jin and then at me. I just stared at the two of them dumbfounded, "What's going on?" Suddenly I felt something was wrong, "Damn it, is this a trap? Are you not in the same group?"

These two people also do not age, and they belong to the same archaeological team, and they are also deeply involved in this matter. I suddenly thought of what a friend of mine said, Menyou Ping must not be the same person. Could he be right?

Menyouping shook his head and said nothing, so I looked at Wenjin, who said, "It's not as disgusting as you said. He and I are innocent."

I frowned and sincerely wanted to kowtow to them: "Brother and sister, please let me go. What is going on?"

Wen Jin said to me: "There is nothing complicated about this matter. In fact, when Dolma came to look for you in that village, he had already recognized me, but he did not expose me. I found it at the mouth of the canyon. When you came, he chased me, and we had already met. What happened next is indeed a conspiracy, but it was also for the sake of caution. "

I looked at the bottle of oil and he nodded.

I got angry and said, "That's too much. Why didn't you say anything?"

He looked at me: "I already hinted at you, I thought you already knew."

"Nonsense! I don't look like I know anything about it!" I almost jumped up, and I immediately realized why Men Youping had been so restless. God, he had been worried about Wen Jin's safety.

The stuffy oil bottle on the side immediately made a "soft" gesture to me, and I realized it and immediately lowered my voice: "You are so unloyal!"

"No, he is right to do this. Otherwise, I will fall into the hands of your female team leader. She is not a fuel-efficient lamp." Wen Jin said. "Also, at that time, I didn't know which one of you had a problem. I needed to find someone to check it for me."

This is probably why Mengyoubo started to check whether we were wearing masks after he came back. Damn, everything happens for a reason.

"Where are those tapes?" I asked. "What's going on with this whole thing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another scream and several gunshots came from outside.

Menyouping clicked his tongue and said, "If they shoot like this, they will attract all the snakes."

Wen Jin listened to the outside, turned around and patted my head, and said to me like a big sister: "This is a plan. It's a long story, so long that you can't imagine. I will tell you all these things. Yes, but now is not the time, let’s get out of here first.” He pointed in a direction.

I sighed, but knew that what she said was right, so I nodded, and several people stood up and quickly retreated into the depths of the mud tunnel.

As we walked, I asked her: "What are your plans? Aren't you going to meet my third uncle?"

"We have no time," Wen Jin said. "Don't you feel that the sound of water around you has become less and less?"

I didn't pay attention to this. Who has the energy to pay attention to this in a place like this. Wen Jin said: "The underground waterways here are extremely complex, but when there is water, it is not actually a maze. You at least know whether you are walking on the ground. As long as you go up against any flow of water, you will definitely be able to find it. A water inlet on the ground. Following the water, you can definitely find the end point of this underground waterway - the largest underground water storage lake.

But once the water is gone, you can never get out. Now that the rain has stopped, the water level in the swamp will gradually decrease. In a day or two, the water will completely dry up, and we will be trapped here. This is why I asked the Dingzhu Zhuolma to tell you that if you don't arrive in time, you will have to wait for more than ten years. But you are lucky this time. The rainfall this year was particularly heavy and the entire swamp was submerged. Otherwise, it would be too late now. Regarding your third uncle, Wu Sansheng has the same destination as us. As long as nothing happens to him, we will definitely meet him. "

When I heard this, I made sense and nodded immediately: "Then shall we go up or down now?"

Wen Jin pointed downward: "The biggest secret is already close at hand, are you going to give up just like that?"

Close at hand? I said in my heart that I don’t believe it. Wen Jin looked at his watch and said: "It's almost dawn now. Most of those snakes will move on the ground at night. They will all come down after dawn. Then it will be more troublesome for us to walk. Before dawn, we have to find a place Hide, and when the time comes, just ask if you have anything, and I will tell you. For now, just concentrate on walking."

When Wen Jin said this, there were almost no harsh words, but her eyes and the tone in which she analyzed the problem made me feel naturally submissive, as if she was born with a leadership temperament. No wonder she was the leader of Xisha back then, and even her third uncle was taboo.

I stopped bothering her, and the three of them immediately quickened their pace and went down the tunnel. Soon we arrived at another tunnel.

It was already very deep here, and the tunnels were obviously not as complicated as the ones above. There were very few side roads, and the mud on our bodies made the walk go very smoothly. By six or seven o'clock in the morning, we had walked a considerable distance. There is no silt in the shaft here. There are only natural caves. It is difficult to see signs of artificial digging. Obviously, almost no one comes here.

We could hear the sound of splashing water coming from the rocks. It was obvious that the water from all the wells was gathering around, and the end of the entire West Queen Mother City's water storage system should be very close.

At this time, the morning light on the ground should have receded. Although there is no sound of any snakes nearby, we all know that the number of these snakes is amazing. Once they return to their nests, they are likely to appear anywhere. According to Wen Jin's experience, it is better to hide at this time. Good.

How to hide is based on experience. She asked Mengyou Piao to take off his clothes, apply mud with water from the kettle, pile up the two ends of the passage with gravel, and then tore the clothes into pieces and stuffed them into the gaps.

"In this way, from the snake's perspective, the passage here is closed." Wen Jin said, "I have been coming here these days."

I took a few sips of water, feeling that such a weak barrier would be useless. If I encountered that kind of giant snake, wouldn't it just fart and collapse?

At this time, a small bonfire was lit, which only warmed the body a little. It was extremely humid and cold here, and it was impossible to rest without a fire.

After a moment, I gradually relaxed and felt a little uneasy. Wen Jin handed me something to eat, and he knew from my expression that I couldn't help but ask questions, and let me ask whatever I wanted.

I had been thinking about it for a long time, and immediately got excited and wanted to ask her questions, but suddenly I found that my mind was very confused. There were too many questions to ask, but I couldn't ask them.

"It doesn't matter. You can ask them one by one. I have already expected such a situation." Wen Jin looked at me with a smile.

I sorted out the questions in my mind and thought about which one was the most important. After thinking for a moment, I found that no matter where I started to ask, no matter what I asked, it might lead to confusion. There were too many puzzles in my mind, big ones. There are countless small ones, and there must be a systematic way of asking questions, so he said: "How about we ask according to time?"

She nodded: "No problem."

I asked her: "The first question, what I want to know most, maybe a little greedy, can you tell me what is going on in Xisha?"

Wen Jin looked at me with a surprised expression: "Your question is too big. Many things happened in Xisha. Which one are you referring to?"

I said to Wen Jin: "What happened after you disappeared in the ancient tomb?"

Wen Jin was quiet for a moment, as if he didn't expect me to ask this from the beginning. After thinking about it, he suddenly sighed and said: "You actually want to know about this matter... It seems that you already know a lot about this matter. It’s hard to explain things clearly, how did your third uncle tell you?”

I roughly told her what my third uncle told me in the hospital before, and then said to her: "He said he didn't enter the institution with you, so he doesn't know what happened next. You disappeared in the ancient tomb. After that, he has been looking for you, but after so many years of searching, he has found nothing. He also said that he must find you."

After hearing this, Wen Jin smiled strangely, paused, and then said: "I originally wanted to tell you this question at the end, because there is a very key premise that you must understand, but this premise, I will say this Come out, you won’t believe it. I don’t know if you are ready to know the truth now.”

I said: "You die early and you are born early. You just told me that my third uncle is actually a woman and that I was born to him. I can believe it. Just tell me. In the past two years, I can believe everything."

Wen Jin still looked a little worried. After thinking about it, he asked, "Do you have any judgment about this matter?"

I shook my head: "I have no judgment whatsoever."

Wen Jin looked at Menyou Ping and seemed to be communicating with him, but the latter had no reaction. She calmed down, ruffled her hair, and seemed to have made up her mind before taking out a notebook from her backpack.

This is a new notebook, a modern style, probably bought recently. Sure enough, she still maintains the habit of writing notes. She opened the notebook and took out a yellowed old photo. When I looked at it, I saw that this photo was very familiar. It was the photo taken by my third uncle before they went to sea together. I didn’t know how to look at this photo. After reading it so many times, I could recite the location of everyone in it, so I just glanced at it and handed it back, saying, "I've already seen this photo."

Wen Jin said: "Actually, all the secrets are in this photo. But it is difficult for ordinary people to discover this secret. All things in Xisha originated from it. The secret is actually not complicated, but if I tell you directly, you will definitely not be able to Accept, let me tell you first what is hidden in this photo.”

At this time, a concept suddenly flashed through my mind. Could it be that when I was drinking with those friends, what they said about the eleventh person was true. Is there someone other than the ten people hidden in this photo? A mysterious person? Wen Jin wants to tell me this?

From the look on her face, it doesn't look like that simple, so I don't know what her intentions are.

Wen Jin gave me the photo again and asked me to point out to her the names and positions of the people who could be read in the photo.

I looked at it and said, "I only know a few people who are relatively related to this matter. I know the names of the others, but I don't know which ones they are."

Wen Jin said: "It doesn't matter, you can just recite it."

I first saw the stuffy oil bottle that attracted my attention the most, and said, "This is my little brother." Wen Jin nodded, then pointed to a girl on the side, "This is you." Wen Jin nodded again, "Then , This is the third uncle." I pointed at the third uncle and said. I looked at Wen Jin and waited for her to nod before continuing, but this time she didn't move and looked straight at me.

I was stunned for a moment, what did she mean? Wen Jin took the photo and said, "Why do you think this person is your third uncle?"
