I told Tang Rou that this photo was sent by the shadow.
In this period of time, she hadn't called him, but Tang Rou's hand was shaking as she held the phone. She constantly zoomed in and out of the picture. Her expression was very strange.
"Do you know this painting? I also feel that there's something familiar about it, but I can't recall where I've seen it before. "
"How could you have met such a thing?"
Tang Rou suspiciously looked at me. I also felt that it was weird, but then I remembered that this was probably caused by Daoist Tian Xuan's memory.
I still hadn't told everything to Tang Rou. On one hand, I didn't want Tang Rou to be sad over thinking about Daoist Tian Xuan, and on the other hand, I didn't want Tang Rou to worry about me.
"Then tell me, what does this map represent?"
"This is the original diagram of a very ancient sealing spell formation. I only saw a incomplete portion of this in one of my grandfather's notes. I never thought that it would be nearly complete."
Tang Rou's astonishment made me feel as if I had really met something very strange.
Shadow and I can't be considered friends, but of course, we can't be considered enemies either. It's just that there's a Zhou Xue between us, so I don't dare to believe him.
"Call them back. We're already very close to the airport, so even if they want to follow us, they can't be this fast."
Naturally, I followed Tang Rou's decision without any conditions. I called her back, but this time, there was someone who answered.
"How is it? Did you change your mind? "
There was impatience in the shadow's voice, as though the situation was extremely urgent. Moreover, I could hear that the shadow's voice was a little hoarse, as though the shadow's body was a little weak.
"Where did you get this picture? What problems did you encounter? If you can explain it clearly, maybe we can meet once in a while. "
Tang Rou pressed the speaker button and then spoke to Shadow.
"We took this picture in an underground cave in the jungle. The general location is in the north of China, and it was taken about a week ago. That place has a lot of these murals, if you are willing to help, we can provide you with other information about this place."
The shadow was not a long-winded person, and soon enough, he gave a general idea of what had happened.
"If you all still hate us because of what happened last time, then there's no need at all. As long as you are willing to help, we can agree to any conditions, and we can even help you deal with that Zhou Xue."
Shadow seemed to know, and we suspected it was a trap.
"Tell me what happened to you. If I can't answer this question, I can't help you. "
Shadow was silent for a moment, then hung up.
Just when I thought that this matter was over, a photo suddenly appeared on my phone.
It showed a face, a horribly distorted face.
I remember clearly that this face belonged to the leader of their mercenary group, who had a full beard.
It really did look terrifying, and it definitely wasn't made from a diagram.
No wonder the shadow didn't say anything on the phone, there was no way to describe it.
"From the looks of it, he seems to have provoked something evil. Do you think we should go take a look?"
When Tang Rou spoke, her eyes were staring at me.
"In that case, the two of us should go take a look. Aren't you interested in the contents of that mural?"
"Not just interested, but I have always hoped that this magical formation could be completely pieced together. If they didn't trick us this time, I think this would be a very good opportunity."
Truthfully, Tang Rou and I were feeling somewhat helpless. It seemed like the heavens had intentionally arranged for us to not be able to leave this place. Just as we were about to board the plane and leave, something happened.
The call came through again. The other party was silent for a few seconds before speaking.
"How is it? Are you willing to help? As I said before, I'm willing to agree to any conditions, whether it's money or something else. "
Truthfully, Tang Rou and I weren't people who needed money right now. The only reason we wanted to take a look was because of Tang Rou's reaction and her interest in the frescoes.
"There's no need for money. Plus, I don't need anyone to help people like Zhou Xue, but I can see that the situation you're in right now is very dangerous and complicated. So, just treat it as owing us a favor."
The reason I said this was because of Tang Rou.
With regards to the conditions that I put forward, Shadow agreed without any hesitation. Following that, he gave us a brief summary of the events that had transpired.
The other side's communication signal didn't seem to be very good. They would always talk in an intermittent manner and only when they knew that the shadow had sent us a specific location, could we not help but cry out in alarm after Tang Rou asked them for directions.
"Tibet?"
Yes, the shadows at this moment, they are trapped in a deserted part of the Tibetan area, and the situation is even more dangerous than we thought.
The power of the communications equipment was limited, so we were given only a few days to locate it, and if we didn't get there within three days, the battery would run out, and Yukiko was worried that the bearded man might not be able to handle the situation.
"Why don't you try to get your people out of the area? This way, we can at least guarantee that we will meet each other as soon as possible before something happens to your captain. "
Tang Rou and I were also a bit doubtful. According to common sense, a shadow definitely wouldn't be able to think of this, unless there was some sort of irresistible factor.
"We can't leave this area. Otherwise, our captain's life won't be able to be saved. Besides, this is also the case with the knife. There's nothing I can do."
Hearing this, I was overwhelmed with shock. This was really unheard-of.
Before hanging up the phone, I promised Yinzi that I would hurry over to their location as fast as I could. At this moment, Tang Rou and I were extremely excited.
Before that, everything we did was forced, either to be hunted down or to seek the truth.
Only this time, I was truly entrusted by someone, which made me feel proud for the first time since I had acquired my ability.
"Don't tell me that you blame me for being too curious? If we were to deduce the shadows based on the information obtained, the situation that they encountered seems to be extremely dangerous."
Tang Rou cautiously asked me, while she sped towards the airport.
