Zhang Hazi answered me without even thinking, because we were not the only ones present at the time.
I asked, why is this so particular?
He said, if you have a secret to tell me now, will you tell it in front of other people?
I see, but the risk is too great, right? If Zhang Hazi had moved slower at that time, wouldn't I, the person who was being conveyed the information, belch on the spot?
Zhang Hazi said, this is the great thing about your grandfather, because he ensures that the information is not snooped by others, even if the person is passed the information, he may be killed. This will prevent you from being held hostage by others and forced to open the coffin to obtain information.
This is indeed a good method. After all, as long as outsiders are present, these ghosts and ghosts will never pass on information. Instead, they will treat everyone who comes to get the information as if they were enemies, killing everyone who comes to get the information.
And if it were someone else who opened the coffin, these ghosts and ghosts would kill those who came to open the coffin out of need to guard the coffin. In this way, other people would still not get the old one. The message that I want to convey to me.
Let me tell you, Xie Bugui said before that when I was in a coma, most of the people in their village had their coffins opened, so would they be affected by those sinister people...
Zhang Hazi shook his head and interrupted me, saying, these are their grandchildren, do you think they will attack their relatives?
I actually thought of it, I just wanted to make sure. After all, these villagers are innocent. If they go to open the coffin for autopsy because of me and Zhang Hazi, and their own lives are in danger, then my sin will be great.
Seeing my silence, Zhang Hazi started walking up the mountain, but he was stopped by me again before he took two steps.
I admit that what he said before is very reasonable. I still believe that the ghosts and ghosts did not kill me before, but who can guarantee that they are not playing me? What if they did this on purpose, just to charm Zhang Hazi so that Zhang Hazi could win my trust?
Having experienced so many things, I have to be more careful. Otherwise, if I don't pay attention, I may fall into the trap of evil people.
So I asked Zhang Hazi, how could you be sure that I was the person they wanted to convey the message to?
He said, because you can enter the facing painting.
Let me tell you, what’s the connection? You can get in too!
He said, I followed you in, but if it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't have been able to get in.
But even so, it doesn't mean that I am the only recipient of this information. After all, someone else might have been able to get into that painting.
Zhang Hazi shook his head very firmly and said, except for you, no one else can get in.
I asked, why are you so sure?
He asked me, before we went up the mountain, had anyone seen Xie Xichang’s father Laozimai?
Let me tell you, who knows?
Zhang Hazi said, no one must have seen it, otherwise do you think you would encounter it?
I thought about it, and it seems that this is really true. If anyone had seen it before, the people from Xiejia Village would have disposed of it long ago, and there would be no chance of it appearing in front of me.
So, no one had ever entered that painting before me, and no one had ever seen that guy. In other words, as Zhang Hazi said, no one else except me can enter that painting at all.
So, that information was really conveyed to me?
But that's not right. Whether you can enter that painting or not has nothing to do with whether or not you can send a message to me. After all, it’s not the painting that keeps bringing me back to the top of the mountain, but the ghosts and demons in the real world.
Zhang Hazi said, do you know Morse code?
Let me tell you, this is a communication code invented in 1837. It often appears in TV movies. Maybe I don’t know?
He said that in this case, you should know that there is a code book for Morse code.
I nodded and said, I know all this. The key is, what do you want to say?
He said, I mean, this painting is about finding the code book of Shenxianling. If you can't get into this painting, even if you are carried all the way to the top of the mountain by ghosts and demons, you won't be able to find a way to the Immortal Ridge, and you will only be blackmailed to death.
Hearing this, I was instantly confused. How come it has something to do with Shenxianling after talking about it for so long? Besides, in that painting, apart from being scared to death the whole time, I didn’t see any hints about going to Shenxianling.
Zhang Hazi said, you are so stupid, you are so angry, but you can't think of it?
I shook my head to show that I didn't understand it at all. Even, I don’t know what the connection between this painting and Shenxianling is.
I asked Zhang Hazi, what exactly is Shenxianling and why have I never heard of it before?
It's not that I haven't heard of the place name "Shenxianling". On the contrary, there are many places called "Shenxianling". There is one in Ningxiang, which is a tourist attraction. People from around Changsha often go there to check in.
But these places are obviously not Feng Shui treasures, and they are inconspicuous existences in the world of craftsmen, so it is impossible for Xie Chuanyin and the others to go there.
When I say I've never heard of it, I mean that among the craftsmen, there has never been any talk about the 'Shenxian Ridge'. It's not like nine lions worshiping elephants or ten thousand horses returning to court, which is extremely difficult to find but well known to all craftsmen.
Zhang Hazi said, I have never heard of it before, but after listening to your conversation with Xie Liuzhangdi, I knew exactly where this 'Shenxian Ridge' was.
I asked, where?
Zhang Hazi stamped his feet, then pointed to the ground and said, "It's right under our feet!" This tomb mountain is the Immortal Ridge!
When I heard this, I almost subconsciously said that this is too nonsense. If this is Shenxianling, do you think the people in Xiejia Village don't know about it?
Zhang Hazi did not rush to refute, but asked me, if we were not trapped in Niujiao Cave by Liu Sangyi, do you think we would know the location of the other exit of Niujiao Cave at the head of the village?
I shook my head, saying it was impossible to know. Because the people in the village didn't even know that there was another exit from Niujiao Cave.
Zhang Hazi said that this tomb mountain is the Niujiao Cave where the old hole was sealed, and the hole that was sealed must be on this mountain. As for Xie Chuanyin and the others, they should have entered through another entrance. That entrance, like Niujiao Cave, was unknown to anyone in the village.
Let me tell you, this is all your speculation, or as you said, this is a tomb mountain, how did it become the fairy mountain in your mouth?
He pointed at the tombs on both sides of the mountain and said, what are these tombs for?
Let me tell you, in order to conceal the truth and allow the Xie family of Sichuan generation to gain immortality?
He said, since there are immortal tombs, are the people lying there immortal?
I nodded, thinking of a possibility, and the expression on my face began to change.
Zhang Hazi continued to say, since they are all a group of immortal people, are they the gods that the common people call them? The place where gods live is called Shenxianling, right? Tell it to yourself, is this mountain the Immortal Ridge? !
