My grandma was afraid that Zhu Sha would hear it, so she quickly covered my mouth and hissed, "Keep your voice down, Buran'er. Don't let Sha'er know about these things. She will go back to inherit the inheritance. Don't let her be distracted!"
"But..." I was about to say something, but found that it was in vain. Gradually, I felt that there was something strange about this Witch God's Palace!
Grandma sighed again, as if a fish was stuck in her throat and it was difficult to speak, but after hesitating for a long time, she still confided, "My child, let me explain it to you in general. In fact, this thousand-year promise of sleeping is with you. The family rules that existed only when great-grandmother came to Yunwen Temple, I really can’t tell you about the eighteen levels of hell, because it has already forced the three brothers Zhuge Weng, Zhuge Nan, and Zhuge Pu to not dare to return. Temple.”
"Your grandfather and I have been secretly investigating your great-grandmother's affairs. Before we fell asleep, what we saw was that your great-grandmother was like a paper figure made of paper. She was not breathing, unwilling to speak, and her eyes were Sluggish, if you look carefully, you will find that her legs do not bend when walking, and her snow-white skin has no blood color. If I have to use one word to describe her, the word ghost fits her very well!"
Hearing these words, I held my breath and began to feel uneasy!
Grandma also paused, fearing to scare me, and looked at my face. I am also someone who has broken into the ancient tomb of the wolf and the devil's ditch. I won't be scared to death by a few words, but it will make my scalp numb. Yes, if you think about it carefully, grandma is a person who has lived for thousands of years. The answers she said must have been determined after extensive investigations. They cannot be nonsense. I can see that grandma is right. This matter is also very taboo.
I took a few deep breaths, put my hands on my hips, walked back and forth a few steps, and looked out the window to relieve the throbbing in my heart, "Grandma, I believe what you said, because you are my grandma, but my great-grandmother When we met two days ago, I didn't notice anything wrong. Maybe she did say a little less, but... But her smile was really natural and easy-going, not like what you said at all. That look."
Grandma lowered her eyelids melancholy, and finally closed her eyes, "What I just told you is how I saw her at that time, and now she is much more normal and more human than she was thousands of years ago. Well, if you don't observe carefully, you won't find anything strange at all. Next is the point I want to tell you. The reason why your generation doesn't have to sleep is because this secret was exposed by your grandfather, so you Grandpa didn’t come back.”
"Grandma! Wait!" I stretched out my hand to stop grandma and said in surprise: "Grandma, didn't great-grandfather say that sleeping for a thousand years is to get rid of the poison of ancient medicine?"
Grandma suddenly laughed, it was a sarcastic smile, "He really still doesn't have the courage to tell you the truth."
"What's the truth?" I took a step forward, grabbed my grandma's shoulders, and asked a little eagerly, because according to grandma's tone, my great-grandfather lied to me about the thousand-year slumber agreement!
"Detoxification is fake, there is no such thing at all." Grandma continued: "This detoxification is just a cover. Your grandfather once sent prison meals to the prisoners in the eighteenth hell. Some of those prisoners were from the Gucha clan. They were the first people to dig fresh water springs. They told your grandpa that an ancient tomb was dug beside the spring. Many things were unearthed from the tomb, including a bronze tomb. The chained wooden coffin, just when your great-grandfather was about to open that wooden coffin.”
"In the depths of the ancient tomb, something suddenly called out 'sister'. As this sound was heard, the people of the ancient temple tribe had hallucinations. They all saw a face like dark tree bark. The white-haired wife with a stooped back slowly walked toward them. Some people were really dead, but some people would be fine as long as they avoided the wife, but they had to keep moving and hiding, otherwise the wife Although they walked slowly, they would still catch up. This was one of the reasons why Zhuge Weng, Zhuge Yan, and Zhuge Pu left the Yunwen Temple. Later, those people from the ancient temple clan were imprisoned in the eighteen-level hell cage. Outside the glazed glass, I saw an old woman pressing her face against the glazed glass. Then she pushed her legs back hard, squeezing her face until it was deformed. She wanted to enter the cage and kill those ancient temple people. Thousands of years have passed. The people of the Gucha tribe will still see their familiar white-haired wife outside the glazed glass, frantically trying to squeeze in."
"They called this a curse. Your great-grandfather also heard the sound at that time, but he was fine. Some people from the ancient temples, it was your great-grandfather who opened the coffin, and then your great-grandfather took off his robe and wrapped it up with the body of a girl. , there is a naked girl lying in the coffin, and that girl is your great-grandmother! This is the result of your grandfather's investigation, but after you finished the investigation, your great-grandfather killed those Gucha tribesmen. "
I don’t know why, but I wasn’t afraid. Instead, I felt that this was a virus spread from ancient tombs, causing everyone to have a collective hallucination. Those who died might not have been killed by that old woman, but by that old woman. I was scared to death!
I expressed this idea and added at the same time, "Grandma, if you follow what you said, then those things under the eighteenth level of hell are actually countless old women?"
Grandma was surprised that I would say this, but she still affirmed: "We can't go down to the lower nine floors, so we can only investigate these from the mouths of the prisoners above. If those ancient temple people didn't speak, then it can really be said that, Before the ancient tomb was excavated, the Eighteen Levels of Hell were not called the Eighteen Levels of Hell, but the Central Water Valve. There were underground springs on each level. After the ancient tomb was excavated, it was remodeled. They, the ancient temple people, all Knowing all this, the Gucha people call that wife Meng Po, so that thing should be Meng Po!"
"In order to confirm whether this matter is true or not, your grandfathers visited several ancient tombs in various places, just to find a piece of legendary demon bone!"
"Demon bones? Why are grandfathers looking for demon bones? Grandma! Do you also believe that there are ghosts in this world?" I asked my grandma. Even though grandma said it was so scary, I still couldn't get nervous. I wouldn't believe this. There is such a thing as ghost in the world, it must be the virus from the ancient tomb!
Grandma frowned when she saw that I didn't believe it. She asked me, "Do you know why Yunwen Temple has to be built underground? Do you know why children from major families want to study abroad? I don't believe in ghosts. But this must be some kind of unknown power. After our investigation, we found that this power is related to ghosts breaking walls, so we need to find the best demon bones and make them into bone lamps, so we can know whether that thing is the so-called Meng Po!"
"But what are monster bones, grandma? There can't be monsters in this world!" At this point, I couldn't help but burst out laughing, thinking that grandma was probably just making fun of me. Why did I get more and more excited the more I listened? I feel there is no basis for it!
Suddenly grandma looked between us with cold eyes, "Bian'er, if this is an illusion, then I am in an illusion now. I have never told you this fact. For thousands of years, as long as I go to Anyone who goes on a sleep date will have a sequelae, that is, they will see a wife following them. Next, I will tell you why your great-grandfather asked us to go to the thousand-year sleep date!"
