Chapter 682 The Praying Man

Chapter 682 The Praying Man

"Dong dong..."

"Lao Yang, Lao Yang, open the door. I know you are home."

In a unit building in an old residential area, Lin Shi was knocking on an old metal security door.

"squeak……"

The rusty hinges made a sharp sound, and the door slowly opened to reveal a crack. Yang Wangxing stuck his head out, and when he saw with red eyes that the person coming was Lin Shi, he breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.

"Old Yang, your place is really hard to find."

Lin Shi said cheerfully, then waved to the door.

"Here we are, everyone come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Wan and Qin Liuying walked in one after another, and did not forget to greet Yang Wangxing politely when passing by.

"You...you...what's wrong with Lin Shi?"

Seeing so many people coming in, Yang Wangxing suddenly became anxious and hurriedly walked to Lin Shi and whispered in his ear.

"Don't worry, Lao Yang. As the saying goes, more friends mean more paths."

"These are all the top helpers I found. Look at the girl in purple on the left. You know her. She is the daughter of Feitian Gym in Feitian City. With her help, we can quickly search for the whereabouts of the mural in Feitian City."

"Look at this short-haired girl. The Picosi she captured has a close relationship with the Picosi tribe in Tsukimi Canyon. With her help, we can find a way to see the murals in other elf tribes."

Listening to Lin Shi’s words, Yang Wangxing widened his eyes.

MD, what this guy said... makes a lot of sense...

But this feeling was too uncomfortable, as if the daughter that I had worked so hard to raise was casually married off to the village chief's stupid son...

"Can……"

Yang Wangxing wanted to say something, but Lin Shi had already predicted it and immediately made a promise.

"Don't worry, no one else will know except them. I'm doing this so that we can find clues faster."

"That's...ok."

At this point, Yang Wangxing didn't say much, but Lin Shi looked at him, slightly thoughtful.

Yang Wangxing gave him a very strange feeling. After all, yesterday was only the second time they met, and based on the situation during the first meeting, they could not be considered to have any friendship.

But even so, the other party could tell Lin Shi such an important secret. Even if it was forced by the situation at the time, it seemed a bit abnormal. Anyway, if the situation was reversed, Lin Shi asked himself if he could do it.

However, Lin Shi didn't care much about these. He was not afraid of any conspiracy or tricks from the other party. There was nothing that couldn't be solved with fists. If there was, he would just add another fist...

"By the way, Lao Yang, where is the book you mentioned? Let me have a look. I know a little about Elvish writing."

After comforting Yang Wangxing, Lin Shi picked up a chair and sat down, looking around the messy room and said.

"Gone, along with my legs."

Yang Wangxing said without raising his head.

"The ruins at that time were unusual. They had a self-destruct mechanism. I managed to escape with a narrow escape, but the price I paid was my leg. There is nothing left of the relevant books and materials."

Yang Wangxing's face was stern and he didn't seem to be lying. Then he slowly walked to the corner of the room. There was a wall with something covered with cloth hanging on it.

"Bah..."

Yang Wangxing pulled open the floral cloth. The rough cloth made a harsh sound as it scratched the surface. Under the floral cloth was a stone mural of a unit square meter. The delicate and tortuous pattern instantly attracted the attention of the three people.

Lin Shi could tell at a glance that this mural was definitely from the same source as the one he had seen in the Pipi tribe. The style of the mural and the form of the carving were almost exactly the same, so they must have been created by the same person.

Naturally, the contents of the two paintings are completely different. The one belonging to the Pipi clan is engraved with a five-pointed meteor with a tail of light, while the pattern on Yang Wangxing's one is even stranger.

There are several human figures carved on it. The most conspicuous one, the one occupying the center position, is maintaining a kneeling posture. He has his hands stretched forward in front of his chest, his head slightly lowered, as if he is praying.

In the corner of this mural, there is a code in ancient Elvish language [2], which seems to be the second one among all the stone murals.

“This mural gives people a very strange feeling.”

Meng Wan also frowned as she looked at the mural and said, the tone of this mural is dark, and the people are portrayed with rough lines. Although the movements can be seen clearly, the specific facial features cannot be seen clearly, so the overall look is a bit weird.

She was dragged here by Lin Shi, who said there was something interesting here, so she came...

"It seems to have the same origin as the murals in Pippi's place."

Qin Liuying also observed and said that Lin Shi told her the general situation. She was a little concerned. Recently, more and more things happened in Feitian City. As the daughter of the owner of Feitian Gym, she couldn't pretend not to see it.

"Not only do they have the same origin, these murals may be telling a story, and these two murals are connected to each other. They are the second and third in order respectively." Lin Shi took over the conversation.

"If this one represents prayer, then the shooting star in the next one should be the object of their prayers, right?" Meng Wan's mind was working quickly as she speculated on the connection between the contents of the two murals.

"It's too early to say this now. Instead of speculating on their relationship based on the content of only two murals, it's better to wait until all the murals are found before conducting research."

Then Lin Shi looked at Yang Wangxing.

"Old Yang, how did you get this mural? Are there other murals?"

"How could it be that easy? I spent almost all my fortune to get this mural. How could I have had any other money?"

Yang Wangxing spread his hands, looking like he had a very miserable life.

"But I am not completely ignorant. I have collected many clues that may be related to the murals. Among them, the news that the night canyon elves have the murals hidden in their hearts is something I learned with great difficulty."

Yang Wangxing said with a proud look on his face, while Lin Shi nodded thoughtfully.

"In that case, let's go to Moon Viewing Canyon to look for other elf tribes and take a look at their murals."

"Also, I think the so-called secret hidden in the mural should refer to the content of the mural, not the mural itself. So when the time comes, we only need to take some photos, and this should not be rejected by the elves."

As he spoke, Lin Shi looked at Meng Wan.

"These may still require the help of Picosi. Only through their tribe can we find other elf tribes more easily."

"No problem. Picosi also wants to go back and have a look."

Meng Wan immediately gestured and spoke with a somewhat excited tone. She knew that following Lin Shi was absolutely right. What could be more exciting than going on a treasure hunt?

"Well."

Lin Shi said softly, then nodded.

"Get ready, let's go!"

……

So busy, so busy...
