Peng Delin's hands were tied by me and he couldn't move. He just kept struggling, "There is a ghost, there is a ghost!"
"Ghost!" I suddenly noticed what Peng Delin was saying and thought to myself: "There is indeed a ghost in this tomb. This has been proven in Huai Rujin's email, but..."
I was thinking about it and accidentally caught a glimpse of Chen Xiongying's legs on the ground. "The other limbs and body are gone, but only one leg is left. This is too strange. If the iron gate outside is Shen Fang and the others. It's sealed, which means she doesn't want the contents inside to come out, so what could it be? She killed someone and left a leg..."
Driven by curiosity, I stood up and walked to Chen Xiongying's stump, pinched his nose, and carefully checked it. Suddenly, he found a notebook under his thigh.
"notebook?"
This notebook is very mysterious. It is covered with mud like the swallow's nest that appeared on the iron door. It smells foul. Obviously, this is definitely not unintentional. Although it has been many years, the words above are still clearly legible.
As soon as I opened it, there was a sketch on the title page. On it was a pair of patterns that looked like eyes, but they were slightly different and looked weird.
"Double pupils!" I continued reading and saw the word "double pupils" prominently in front of my eyes. "The daughter of the leader of the Yi family has a pair of yin and yang eyes that can see ghosts. She has mastered the power to communicate with the gods, but she also has It brought irreparable danger to the tribe. People regarded her as a monster, and keeping her would anger the gods, so the young girl was handed over to the devil. Poisonous insects swallowed her body, leaving only a pair of pupils. ." I couldn't help but sigh as I read the words recorded by Chen Xiongying.
"Could it be that..." I suddenly thought, "The owner of this tomb should be this girl with double pupils. Things are getting more and more complicated. I thought the Ice Soul Dragon Pill was already mysterious enough, but now it has appeared again. Come here, I really don’t know what surprises there are.”
The notebook successively explained some details about this ancient tomb. It roughly said that this girl was particularly favored by the leader of Mu Luo, and he was forced to hand her over to the tribe, ending her short life in order to express his love for her. As expected, when she was buried, the leader put an Ice Soul Dragon Pill into her mouth to make her look beautiful forever.
"It seems that another Ice Soul Dragon Pill is indeed here." I immediately became excited and flipped through a few more pages. I was a little surprised by the words that followed. It seemed like I was writing a diary, with only a few lines at a time. , I wrote for six consecutive days, and the last day was December 4th five years ago.
"December 1, the third day. I have been trapped here for seventy-two hours. All the dry food has been exhausted. I have no water. I know I will die here, but I don't resent Peng Delin... December 2nd, the fourth day. I saw that the god of death was waving to me again. I found that people outside mixed the excrement of Bloodwing locusts into mud and sealed the door to prevent the ghosts from approaching. I thought I would Protect this notebook before you die... December 3rd, the fifth day. I know that the ghost is standing beside me. At this moment, I write with peace of mind, ready to leave the world at any time. At this moment, I finally know the secret about the Yin and Yang Gate. Technique should be a tool to bring up the exquisite illusion on behalf of people, but the environment here is strong and weak, but here, everything is more real..."
After reading this, I couldn't help but think deeply, "Professor Peng was mentioned in the diary. Obviously Professor Peng must have known about it. He never mentioned what happened here back then. It seemed that he was deliberately concealing it. I even suspected that he might be related to Related to Professor Chen’s death.”
At this moment, Peng Delin, who was tied up by me, suddenly developed a strange force and screamed to break free. He screamed loudly, "There is a ghost, there is a ghost!" Then he spread his legs and started to scream. The boy ran into the darkness. I was about to catch up, but I couldn't see his shadow.
I was shocked by Peng Delin's behavior, and his shrill scream was even more weird. It happened suddenly, so I didn't dare to chase it rashly. "Now I'm sure that the ghost inside is probably sealed here by Shen Fang and the others. Even a senior ghost refiner like her can't clean it up. It must be very difficult to deal with."
Advance and retreat are just a matter of thoughts.
The further you walk in, the place becomes narrower and lower, and your eyesight goes dark. It's like stepping on a tightrope, your heart is in your throat, time seems to have stopped, and the only thing left in your ears is Peng Delin's increasingly distant shouts.
At this time, I saw a white shadow suddenly floating out of the darkness. Yes, it was floating, but it was very fast, but I was sure that the thing's feet did not touch the ground. Peng Delin was so frightened that he threw himself to the ground. Seeing that the situation was not good, I hurriedly rushed closer. At this time, the white shadow suddenly flashed and disappeared again.
"Professor, are you okay?"
Peng Delin looked at me with fear on his face, but he was still stupid. When he saw that I was holding Chen Xiongying's notebook in my hand, his eyes looked a little subtle. Although he was not pretending to be crazy just now, this time there was something in his eyes. The fear emanating comes from the heart.
I carefully put the notebook into my backpack, and then said to Peng Delin: "Professor, let me ask you, have you been here before?"
"Ah, no, no!" Peng Delin was able to understand my words again, but he still denied it.
"Stop lying to me. In fact, I already know it. You were mentioned in the notebook left by Professor Chen. I think you two came here together before, right?" I asked.
"No, no, that's not the case. I didn't kill him. It was all Huai Yuming who instigated me. I didn't mean to do it!" Peng Delin looked at me with a look of horror, but he said everything clearly. out.
"Fuck your grandma, isn't Huai Yuming Miss Huai's father?" I cursed in my heart, "I knew this matter was complicated, but I didn't expect it to be so deeply involved."
"The Faqiu Sect split since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the following more than a thousand years, there have been constant internal battles. The Huai family is one of the branches of the Faqiu Sect. At that time, he was the young head of the Huai family of the Faqiu Sect, which had already declined. Huai Yuming, in order to regain the prestige of the Huai family, visited all the sects in the rivers and lakes, and persuaded them to work with him to find this ancient tomb. In order to persuade Su Muzhe and Song Beike to go to the tomb with him, he abolished the Nine The two men tried their best, but failed in the end." Peng Delin seemed to have a clear conscience.
"There are many stories among them, but now it seems that they are all just a blur."
"Could it be a grudge between Senior Song and Senior Su?"
"Yes." Peng Delin nodded, "Huai Yuming threatened and lured me, and I was so obsessed that I actually conspired with him."
"At that time, Su Muzhe and Song Beike had already become famous. One was the leader of moving mountains, and the other was the best master of unloading mountains. They dominated the area and attracted all the nations to come to court. Su Muzhe had a childhood sweetheart named Zui Huayin. The two fell in love with each other and had been secretly married for a long time. Determined for life. However, Huai Yuming admired Zui Huayin very much, and Song Beike and Su Muzhe were unwilling to cooperate with Huai Yuming, so they came up with a plan to kill two birds with one stone."
"In order to drive a wedge between Su Muzhe and Song Beike, I once lied to Song Beike about a tryst between Su Muzhe and Eighty-nine Aunts. The arrogant Song Beike was so angry that he ran away in anger. He said it was the beauty of adulthood, but he didn't know what was going on. Aunt Eighty-nine, who was equally arrogant, really broke the rules and took the initiative to seduce Su Muzhe. As a result, Song Beike and Su Muzhe completely fell out."
"After that, Song Beike, who was bent on revenge, came up with the idea of Zui Huayin. In this way, the two completely became enemies and mortal enemies. This situation was only temporarily brought to an end after Song Beike disappeared. The jealous eighty-year-old Aunt Jiu once had a fake show with Su Muzhe, but Song Beike never looked back."
"It's a pity that Aunt Eighty-Nine, because of your conspiracy, has been hunting down Senior Song for decades." I snorted coldly, "I wanted to say that you don't deserve sympathy for framing a fellow sect, and there is no need to be kind to your wife, but The key now is to be able to get out, and I will keep you alive for the time being, waiting for God to take care of you."
At this time, Peng Delin no longer had the repentant expression before, and returned to his stupid state.
I also calmed down from Peng Delin's narration, and remembered Chen Xiongying's records in his notes, fearing that I would miss the next slightest clue.
Suddenly, I heard a sound of knocking on the iron door, and I said in surprise: "It seems that Yan Yunshu and the others are here."
"Come on, Professor Peng, let's go quickly." As I said that, I picked up Peng Delin and started to go to the iron gate. But I just walked a few steps and suddenly woke up, "No, I clearly know this iron gate." Has it been opened?"
"Damn it, only God knows what's going on. I heard my grandpa talk about this exquisite illusion, but I need to be more cautious. Many things here are simply unpredictable." Thinking of this, I couldn't help but tighten my grip. Peng Delin, take precautions just in case.
"Dong dong dong." I knocked a few times inside, "Hey, can you hear me? I'm Li Rui!"
Then, I heard someone talking outside, "Master Gu, there seems to be a sound in here?" I heard that the sound was probably that of a knife.
"I don't think it's human." Daozi said. I was so angry that I didn't knock at all, and knocked violently for a while, but there was an iron door across the distance, and it felt like a world away. No matter how I shouted, people outside could only hear the sound, but could not hear it at all. what I said.
"What's not a human being? If you're not a human being, can you still be a ghost?" This voice sounded like Fatty Yu's. I also secretly wondered, "Why can I hear what they are saying? Yes, Professor Chen said in his notes that this is the place where the illusion is weakest."
"Isn't that what I said? Master Gu has to tell you what will happen." Daozi said.
"Knife, get out of the way." Lord Gui Hou signaled Knife to get out of the way. He leaned against the iron door and listened for a while. Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he said with a smile, "This is probably my boy."
"What, you said Li Rui is in there!" Fatty Yu said happily, "Damn, thank God, he's not dead yet."
"Master Gu is Master Gu, he is really powerful."
