The blind man walked at the front to clear the way. He could see the road in front of him clearly without using a flashlight.
He was followed by Master Qi Ba, who was holding a compass in his hand. The compass was spinning, and he could barely find his bearings in the cave.
After that came Lin Yan and Wang Ye. Wang Ye didn't talk much and only protected Lin Yan.
Ji Lanqian followed at the end. She looked at her surroundings and unconsciously stepped lightly. Hei Xiazi had said that after the fight, she should try her best to protect her own life, and the rest were just icing on the cake.
After walking for nearly an hour, we finally reached the place where the archaeologists were digging. The soil was obviously disturbed, and there was a stone wall next to it with carved patterns on it. The lines looked like birds, which was a bit weird.
The black blind man put his fingers on the mud wall, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed, and opened his thin lips slightly, "The soil is mixed with the smell of blood, and we are about to dig something incredible. It seems that we are digging in the right direction." .”
Qi Tiezui also nodded, his expression slightly changed, "The blind man is right, this direction is good for the tomb, but it is not the entrance. According to the analysis of the soil, it is most likely a burial pit. If we dig further, something will happen. .”
"Master Ba, you mean you can find the tomb by digging through this place?" Lin Yan asked.
"Theoretically it's possible, but it's too dangerous." Qi Tiezui gave the answer.
Lin Yan lowered her eyes and didn't know what she was thinking about. After digging for so long, she finally found the possibility of getting in. She thought for a while and talked with Wang Ye with her head down.
After that, Lin Yan suddenly said, "Master Ba, we need to go out and discuss with the archaeological team again, so I will leave this place to you for the time being."
Qi Tiezui nodded, "Okay, we will go out after the inspection."
Lin Yan and Wang Ye left side by side.
Looking at the two people leaving, the blind man chuckled, "Miss Ji, your aunt is really hiding things. She even avoids us when discussing, and doesn't treat us as her own."
Ji Lanqian was immersed in looking at the carvings on the stone wall. Her tone was light, like a joke between friends, "Don't use us to describe you. My aunt paid a high price to invite you. You are not my friend to anyone now. How pitiful." .”
"Hey, aren't we one of the same people? What about the friendship we had together last night when we broke into ghosts and beat down walls?" Hei Xiazi said.
"How can there be any friendship...Qi Tiezui, Mr. Hei, come here and see if the bird painted on this stone wall looks like a bird that often appears at funerals." She pointed to the mural and said, Even in the dim light, I couldn't see clearly what his expression was.
Qi Tiezui walked over and used the light of a flashlight to see clearly. Although he briefly sketched a few strokes, he could see the special nature of this bird.
The blind man only glanced down and then said, "This is called a mourning bird. It is completely black and very similar to a crow. It usually lives in graves and likes to eat carrion."
Qi Tiezui glanced at the blind man from the corner of his eye, and then lowered his eyes silently, his eyelashes blocking all his thoughts.
This is called a mourning bird, and it is very similar to the symbol behind Xu Nanshan's ear. Xu Nanshan has mentioned before that this symbol is a curse and a symbol of short life.
"How did you know?" Qi Tiezui suddenly asked.
Ji Lanqian also looked at the blind man, raising her eyebrows slightly, Ouyou, did you accidentally get into trouble?
The black blind man chuckled softly, "I've seen it before. I used to travel all over the country and met a procession of people getting married overnight in the northeast. This caused the mourning bird to run out of the tomb and hurt the procession of seeing off the bride. Some people said that the place where it appeared was regarded as Unlucky."
"What happened next?" She asked as if she was interested.
The blind man rolled his eyes fiercely behind his sunglasses. This girl knew that she was making it up, and she still asked.
He had no choice but to continue speaking, "Later, the newlyweds all died on the wedding bed. There was not a single piece of good meat on their bodies, and they were all eaten by the mourning birds."
She exclaimed, her face full of disbelief, "It doesn't sound like it's true."
Another set of troubles.
Mr. Hei shrugged helplessly, "Believe it or not."
Qi Tiezui really thought about it. He had only heard the story of the blind man. The content may not be true, but the bird should be true.
Previous data records that during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there were indeed incidents of birds hurting people.
By using this kind of bird to visit the tomb, the archaeological team is indeed on the right track.
The mistake was that I went to the wrong door.
The scope of this mountain is so large that the location of the tomb cannot be determined for the time being.
"That's all for today. I'm hungry. Let's go home and eat." Ji Lanqian stretched and was about to leave.
But he didn't know what he stepped on, his body became unstable and he threw himself towards the stone wall.
She hit the stone wall with her head, and a smell of blood entered her nostrils. She felt like stars were popping out of her head.
Qi Tiezui was the closest and quickly pulled her up to check the injuries on her face. Her forehead was covered in bruises, but he said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not hurt."
Ji Lanqian's vision blurred for a moment, and her tone was a little aggrieved, "You're talking nonsense, you must be swollen."
He is coaxing children.
Master Ba pursed his lips. This child is indeed not easy to fool. He is indeed swollen. A big lump will definitely bulge out in a while.
But the blind man pointed at the stone wall seriously, "The blood is starting to flow."
I saw blood flowing in the lines on the stone wall, and the whole cave shook.
The next second, the black blind man's feet shook, a big hole opened, and he fell directly.
"Oh, I..."
Before Ji Lanqian could see clearly, Qi Tiezui also fell down. She stood on the edge of the hole, her eyes narrowed slightly. It was indeed blood, but her head hurt.
It's all the fault of the blind man, can't he just use blood?
And if she used this method, Qi Tiezui shouldn't be suspicious.
She thought about squatting down, pressing her hands on the edge of the hole, and jumped in without hesitation.
The thick stone wall of the cave entrance above was closed again, as if nothing had happened.
There was no light in the passage, so Qi Tiezui rolled and fell down. There was a black blind man at the bottom to help him, but fortunately he didn't fall to the ground.
Ji Lanqian held the flashlight in her mouth and jumped into the blind man's arms.
Hei Ye took it in his arms, looked at the bag on her forehead, and couldn't help laughing.
What kind of damaging move was she thinking? This was the first time she had seen someone open the tomb door in this way.
She hummed, got out of his arms, and moved closer to Qi Tiezui, "He laughed at me. Is his forehead swollen?"
Qi Tiezui said in a gentle tone, as if comforting a child, "No, I'll give you some medicine and you'll be fine in a moment."
She nodded, moved her face to him, closed her eyes, "Put on the medicine."
His body stiffened suddenly, and it took him a few seconds to react.
Watching this scene, the blind man suddenly felt like marrying his daughter. He shook his head to get rid of the thought, and then raised his feet to look at the space that had fallen in.
It looked like an abandoned tomb, as if there was an oversight when it was originally created, leaving an independent space here. On the huge round platform, there were only four dragon pillars standing on it, and nothing else.
However, it also confirmed Qi Tiezui's statement that this was indeed not the entrance to the tomb.
