Trafford’s Trading Club

The body was wrapped in white cloth, revealing naked arms and bare feet. The dots between the eyebrows were not red dots, but a black mark, similar to the mark of the demon-conquering Xu.

In this windy and cold prairie, the young monk in front of him, who looked to be in his early thirties and had a sallow complexion, was standing on the edge of the big pit.

He suddenly knelt on the ground, spread out his hands, palms upward, and placed them on the ground, as if praying.

Bahuo came in a hurry, but did not disturb the monk's actions at this time. It wasn't until the monk in white stood up after completing a set of actions that he called out very politely: "Master Valava."

Valava turned around with deep-set eyes. Valava is exceptionally handsome... In Bajo's eyes, this young monk under the age of thirty has a unique androgynous beauty in the West.

But few people know that this Valava master is already seventy years old this year.

Very few people, naturally excluding Bahuo.

At this time, Master Valawa picked up the things wrapped in cloth and slowly spread them out, revealing some scattered metal fragments in front of Bajo.

Bajo said: "Master Valava, what is this?"

"It's the magic weapon that my junior brother Mu Chuizun carries with him." Valawa said calmly: "I found it in the soil below. Mu Chuizun is indeed dead."

Bahuo said with a solemn expression: "The people who searched this morning found some bomb remains. Could it be because of this?"

Master Valava shook his head and said: "No, the magic weapon is broken. My junior brother, Muxun Zun, I'm afraid he has competed with someone here. Judging from the degree of brokenness of the magic weapon, I'm afraid he encountered something powerful. enemy."

Bahuo was quite disapproving, "With Master Valava here, he will not attack the powerful enemy. Sneijder's group of people were lost here, it must be because they underestimated the enemy. Moreover, when they set out, they did not encounter any Bring your best gear.”

Valava glanced at Bajo indifferently and did not discuss this issue further. A layman looking at an insider will never know the secret.

But he did agree with the second half of Bahuo's words. The weapons in this world are indeed powerful. If a powerful RPG is shot down, there are probably only a handful of individuals in this world who can block it head-on.

Bahuo suddenly pondered at this time: "If we really encounter an enemy, I will be even more worried about whether the treasures in the underground palace have been taken away."

He looked at Master Valava and said: "The company has invested a lot of money in this project, and now it has lost an elite team. If nothing is gained, the senior management will not be satisfied."

Valava suddenly said: "I can feel that there is still some pure power left in the underground. The East calls this kind of thing earth veins. This is a very magical power of the earth. I am afraid it is caused by this power of the earth. , which led to the collapse of the entire underground palace. It is incredible that someone could use this power of the earth so skillfully more than a thousand years ago."

Bahuo frowned and said: "Master, what do you mean, we can't mine this underground palace again?"

Valawa said calmly: "If there is something hidden underneath, if you mine it casually, it may cause the remaining power of the earth to explode again. If there are still treasures left, I am not sure that they can be intact under such an explosion." The land remains. After all, there's nothing wrong with being careful."

Bahuo looked at the entire pit with doubt... It was simply impossible for him to return empty-handed like this!

"Well... thank you for your hard work, Master." Bahuo nodded and said quickly: "I have people prepare the milk tea in the prairie. Master, please go back and rest first!"

Seeing that Valava had left, the tough man next to Bajo stepped forward and said, "Sir, do we really listen to this guy and give up mining temporarily?"

Bajo narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "When it's later, you can take someone with you and go around from the other side. Move gently and don't let anyone notice. Especially Valawa."

"gentlemen?"

"Valava is not from my side." Bajo frowned and said: "But the lost Sneijder was my subordinate... Some people, I am afraid, hope that I will get nothing this time... You go Well, tell me as soon as you find anything. Send someone to keep an eye on Valava, and let me know as soon as he leaves the tent."

"Yes, private."

Yang Taizi's dojo is hidden in the mountains. Curious, Luo Qiu looked at the surrounding environment and thought to himself whether the satellite cloud image could clearly capture the surrounding environment.

He just looked at his cell phone and saw that there was no signal at all, so he gave up.

There was no words on the way, and it took about half a day. At noon, Luo Qiu, under the instructions of Yang Taizi, vaguely saw some buildings under a cliff in the clouds and mist.

In the middle of the surrounding cliffs, it seems to have been built based on a natural indented cave.

There is no climbing path, but there are a few iron chains fished from above. Walking to the iron chains, Luo Qiu reached out and shook the rusty iron that had been corroded by wind and rain, which was quite interesting.

He asked Yang Taizi: "Taoist Master, there are several families at the foot of the mountain. We occasionally see the remains of some thatched houses along the way. Have they not been discovered in these years?"

Yang Taizi smiled and said: "If no one had discovered it, I would not have been able to go up the mountain. It's just that in the past, people at the bottom of the mountain feared ghosts and gods, had little contact with the outside world, and were isolated from the world. In modern times, who would still want to live here? In the midst of a steep mountain? All capable young people want to run to a prosperous place. The few families left at the foot of the mountain are all old people who have lived here all their lives, but they just don’t want to leave. After a while, Year, I’m afraid he’s gone too.”

As he spoke, Yang Taizi suddenly sighed and said: "Human beings are the spirit of all things. This is not wrong at all. I have been practicing Taoism for decades. In ancient times, I was a strange person and an expert outside the world. But in modern times, there are What is something that modern science can't do? For example, weapons, even if I can dodge, I still can't take them. Although I have the power that ordinary people don't have, it's just that the average person's ability to obtain force today is far more difficult than what I have endured for decades. It’s easy to fix.”

"No, no." Yang Taizi sighed: "It's long gone! I have been seeking immortality for decades, and I don't know if I will be able to achieve it in the end. But on the contrary, I know my destiny and know where my life can go. If my life is one hundred, one day will be lost every day. Even if you don't count, you know that the number is always decreasing. That kind of fear is torture. It's not as good as ordinary people, who only care about how well they will have tomorrow. Good, food, clothing, shelter and transportation, work hard without fear.”

Seeing Yang Taizi's feelings at this time, Luo Qiu couldn't help but think of the culture of traditional skills that were gradually lost.

This is probably what is called decline. (To be continued.)
