Chapter 31

This kind of ancient city is much larger than I thought. In fact, it is preserved more than I imagined. I thought that after more than two thousand years, what awaits us would be broken ridges and broken walls, and perhaps not even a single wall, but I didn't expect that in this rarely visited area, part of the overall building was still preserved.

This building is definitely very small for the entire ancient city, but it is shocking for us to preserve it to this level more than two thousand years later.

"Soul..."

I don’t know what animals had alarmed when I arrived. Some shadows passed through the ancient city covered with plants. It was probably the animals living inside. This ancient city is probably the best natural cave for animals, and I don’t know what is inside.

I originally wanted to inquire myself and wanted to take the lead, but now looking at the surrounding situation, I guess the ancient city will not be too calm, I am afraid that there will be some big snakes and cunning foxes hiding. It is too dangerous to go in alone, so I still have to find all the equipment.

In desperation, I got out of the bushes and returned to my original place after more than an hour of use. At this time, everyone had already found that I was missing and was tracing my traces. Two groups of people had just met. I described the situation of the ancient city. Team Liu was overjoyed and said, "It seems that this trip will not be in vain." Although she was excited, she still had plans. She looked at the sky. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Now that I entered the ancient city, I was too anxious. Everyone moved the camp to a place closer to the ancient city to facilitate the start of construction in the future.

After a while, it was over 7 o'clock in the evening. After a whole day of fatigue, everyone sat by the fire to eat and drink. After the lazy guy finished eating, he went back to the tent to sleep. Because he was too lazy, his presence was very low when the abuse and killing habit did not occur.

The rest of the people also entered the tent one after another. After a while, I was left by the fire, including Team Liu, Wenmin and Harichaga. Harichaga couldn't sleep, while Wenmin and Team Liu looked serious, obviously they had something to say to me.

The first person to speak was Team Liu. She said, "I am very happy to have found the ancient city, but now we have to deal with some things clearly." She didn't wait for me to reply, and then said, "You said before that you want to take a few treasures and leave, but now I have observed all the way. All the people are very valuable, so they probably don't like those bottles and jars. Let's open the skylight and speak loudly. What are you doing?"

It seems that although Wenmin is having a tantrum with me, he is still very nervous. Team Liu should not know our true purpose.

Team Liu's eyes were patrolling Harichaga and me. Harichaga stopped immediately after hearing this and said with a smile: "Captain Liu, this has nothing to do with me. The pervert with the knife is just taking money to do things and is responsible for protecting Brother Chen's safety. I was left by his order. As for what purpose, I don't know, don't ask me." After that, he left with his hands in his pockets.

I cursed in my heart, saying that Zhuanrui came to you for me to help me, but why did I feel like I am the boss at all? Is this appearance fee too unfair? I muttered a few words in my heart, and quickly organized the language in my mind.

Before the Heavenly Eye was found, we could not turn against Team Liu. After all, she knew more about the ancient Shu Kingdom than us, and there were still many things to rely on her next.

After a pause, I said, "Captain Liu, I know that these two friends who suddenly joined may have caused you misunderstandings. You know, I am a weapon consultant, and our vocation is wandering in the underworld, and I am all about all the people. I don't hide the origin of these two people. It's really incorrect, but there is no malice. It's just that my friend found out that this place was unsafe and hired two helpers for me. If you are worried, I can't do anything."

Team Liu obviously didn't believe it. She curled her lips, looked at Wen Min, and said, "Minmin, I hope the person you introduced is reliable."

Wen Min frowned and looked at me. Her eyes were no longer as angry as before. She probably felt much calmer and said, "You can rest assured that these people are trustworthy, not to mention that they have helped us a lot, right?"

Perhaps thinking about the ability of lazy guys, Team Liu's expression calmed down a little, nodded, and did not ask any more questions. For a moment, only Wenmin and I were the first class left by the bonfire. I was in the first class. In order to take care of the lesbians, Team Liu was in the last class. I signaled her to go to bed. She shook her head, smiled bitterly, and said, "Chen Xuan, I didn't expect that we would go to this point. When I first met you, you were not such a person, but now, I am really disappointed."

I knew that she was referring to the previous incident about madman. Although it was proved that there was nothing wrong with lazy people doing that, we treated madman as living people at that time, which was completely different in the sense. In fact, even I was a little suspicious, and I was still not me...

Is it a curse that changed me, or has the experiences of the past few years changed me? Or is it a curse that has influenced my destiny and made me have some experiences of the past two years?

I said, "What do you think now? Or, what are you going to do?"

Wen Min took a deep breath and said firmly: "Now, you are doubting me, and you have become too cruel. Chen Xuan, maybe, the future we had longed for before will not have."

"Yes, good and evil are incompatible. You are the police officer who presides over justice. I am a cruel tomb robber." When I said this, I felt a stone stuffed into my heart, and my whole heart fell down.

She smiled and said, "I know that you have always had to go on this road, so I will accompany you. But now, this road has been walking for too long, and you have become too strange. When I first met you, we were just strangers. You and Xiaodou risked their lives to save me. No matter how dangerous the moment, you never gave up on me... But now, I, I really can't accept you like this. Xiaodou told me about the curse, but in fact I have always been half-believing and half-doubled, but now I believe it... It has wiped out the person I once loved in just four years."

Almost never gave me a chance to speak, she continued, "I know that you are doubting me now, and with your suspicious mentality, no matter how I explain it, you will not believe it, so I don't plan to explain." After a pause, she said something unexpected to me, and she said, "So, I don't plan to give up finding ways to relieve the curse. As you said before, if this is a big scam, then I will take away the true face of this scam."

I was shocked and a buzzed in my mind. To be honest, I thought she was going to show off with me or break it up, but I didn't expect her to say this. When I realized that I had asked: "Why?"

Wen Min said: "Didn't you say that good and evil are incompatible? One day the curse will shape a super criminal. If I destroy it, it is destroying the criminal. So, this is a contest between justice and evil. I want to kill you and then find the person I love back."

Through the burning bonfire, we looked at each other for a long time, as if we had a heart of touch, and everything would naturally become clear.

Immediately afterwards, she walked into the tent to sleep, and I continued to watch the night. At this moment, two strange emotions were intertwined in my heart. Yes, I can only describe it as strange. On the one hand, Wen Min's words touched me a lot. She was a relatively rigorous person. She would not reveal her emotions like Xiao Jing, and she was always inseparable. But what she said just now clearly expressed one meaning: No matter what you become, I will not give up.

If I am no longer me, if the attractive things that are in me will one day become mediocre or even disappear? Who else will be around me?

This is a feeling that is difficult to describe in words, but in addition to this feeling, there is another very clear consciousness. This consciousness is analyzing very rationally: Why did she tell me this? Is it my suspicion that made her alert? Are these words lies? Are she planning to have lies to eliminate my vigilance?

Just as Wen Min expected, even when I said this, the suspicious thinking in my heart could not be gone.

I know I am a cautious person, but now I think about it a few years ago and suddenly realized that if I had been a few years ago, I would never have thought so much. Appropriate vigilance and suspicion are the most basic defense method for people, which can make people safer. But excessive suspicion and vigilance will bring terrible consequences. You will always be in a state of doubt. In the end, you will not be able to tell who is trustworthy and who is not trustworthy.

The most familiar example is Cao Cao. Cao Cao is suspicious by nature and has a headache. The miraculous doctor Hua Tuo wanted to start a craniotomy for him. Although Cao Cao had heard of various strange methods of Hua Tuo's treatment, he still killed Hua Tuo because of suspicion and finally ruined his life.

If I continue to develop like this, I can't imagine what I will become in the future. When a person suspects and denies everything around him, he will inevitably take action and cause irreparable losses.

Since I gave up looking for that scam, I have been waiting for the curse to come, but now I know that it has been there and quietly changing everything about me. At this moment, I am desperately trying to suppress the suspicious thought, but just like obsessive-compulsive disorder, the thought is becoming clearer and clearer. I even doubt whether I have a split personality.

Why do there are two completely different thoughts in a person's brain at the same time? I was obviously moved by Wen Min's words and almost felt sore in my eyes, but why is the suspicious string in my mind getting tighter and tighter?
