Ling Xuzi frowned and took a step forward: “Why did the girl say this?”
The girl in the snow-white shirt looked at the bird on the branch, chirped for a while, then turned around and said, “The bird said, tomorrow will rain, ask me if I believe it. Of course I believe it, do you believe it? ”
Tang Zhou turned his head and glanced at Yan Dan, only to see that she was looking ahead, frowning slightly, thoughtfully.
Ling Xuzi stopped the companion behind him who was about to use the sword, with a kind expression: “What else did the bird say?”
The girl turned her head to the side, as if she was listening, and nodded from time to time. She said after a while: “Birds say that birds die for food, and people die for money. They have not changed since ancient times.”
As soon as the voice fell, everyone’s expressions changed.
I only heard someone running over in three steps and two steps behind her. She was an obese woman, panting and shouting as she ran: “Miss, miss, why have you come to this place again? You never listen to what the master said.” She ran up close, hugged the snow-clothed girl, and repeatedly said to everyone, “Master, my lady was born stupid. You adults have a lot. Don’t bother with a stupid girl!”
The girl struggled and looked at the little bird that was taken off by surprise: “It, it was scared away by you! You pay me, pay now!”
The woman held her own young lady from behind, repeatedly saying: “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
Ling Xuzi suddenly stopped their way, clasping his hands together: “I don’t know where this girl is?”
The woman replied immediately: “My master’s name is Shen, a businessman in the town.”
Ling Xuzi nodded, then let go. He did know that there was a merchant named Shen in Qingshi Town, and he brought the local rare items from all over, but it was a pity that the lady in the family was a fool.
The girl was framed by the woman and stopped struggling. When she passed by Tang Zhou, she suddenly looked at him infatuated, “Do you believe I can understand the language of birds?”
Tang Zhou nodded.
The girl smiled at him, blooming like spring flowers: “I’m telling you quietly, there are ghosts here, they are evil ghosts. They like to gnaw human bones, click and click, and there is no scum left. This is all the birds told me, but It also said that evil spirits are not scary, and talents are the most scary.”
The woman hurriedly covered the girl’s mouth, and laughed again and again: “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry, I’m talking nonsense.”
The girl’s words have already made people feel chills.
Tang Zhou looked at their backs, thinking with a lot of thoughts, the woman said that her own lady was a fool, but some of what she said was very reasonable, and it was definitely not something a fool could say.
Yan Dan rolled his eyes and suddenly smiled and said, “I can understand Yuer’s words, do you believe this?”
Tang Zhou turned his face to look at her, and whispered, “I see, you want to return to the magic weapon again and wait.”
Yan Dan sighed and said quietly, “Anyway, you don’t believe what I say.”
Suddenly, Ling Xuzi coughed slightly, and then walked forward: “Let’s find the Niang Niang tomb first. Besides, there are real ghosts, and you can take it away easily. Don’t panic.”
The other five immediately echoed. Yan Dan looked at those people, never letting go from weapons to clothes. Tang Zhou whispered: “The one who makes the sword in front of you is the soul-breaking sword Zhai Shang, and the right is the shadow sword Qin Mingyang. Except for the Ling Xuzi in front, these two martial arts are the best. The three who walk side by side. The individual is three brothers with the surname Wu.”
Yan Dan also said softly, “May I ask you something?”
Tang Zhou glanced at her and immediately said, “Don’t ask.”
“What on earth did you come to Qingshi Town for?” Yan Dan was very distressed. “Just tell me and listen. If you don’t tell me, I always think and think in my heart, and I’ve always wanted to feel aggrieved.”
Tang Yiyi brushed his sleeves and said lightly: “Then you can think about it slowly, and think about it when you say it’s not good.”
“This is the tomb,” Ling Xuzi knelt down, brushed away the ashes on a bluestone slab, and moved the slab away as soon as he was able to reach it, revealing a tunnel, “We are not the first to find here. Let’s not hide it from you. Said that the veteran junior came in once, and he was the only one who survived among a group of people, but… alas, he had lost his mind and couldn’t ask what he saw that made him what he is now. ”
Zhai Shang said, “I heard that some people have seen female ghosts in the tomb gouging their hearts.”
Ling Xuzi waved his hand: “This decision won’t be true.” He paused, and then said: “If we go down this time, we may encounter danger. If you don’t want to go down, you might as well stay on it.”
Qin Mingyang took the saber off his waist and held it in his hand. The three Wu brothers looked at each other for a while, and shook their heads even though they were worried.
After waiting outside for a while, a group of people walked slowly down the tunnel.
Yan Dan walked down a few steps, and said softly: “It’s dark and you can’t see anything.” Suddenly, Qin Mingyang held a lighted candle and smiled: “There are still twenty on his body. A few candles should be able to support you to the end of the cemetery.”
Ling Xuzi couldn’t help but praised: “Master Qin is still careful.”
Qin Mingyang smiled restrainedly, and suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the candle in his hand went out with a snort.
Not far away, there was a arrogant voice shouting: “Who kicked Laozi?!” Suddenly someone shouted: “There is a kind of stand up and make gestures!” Then, there was a whistling sound around him, applauding fists. Constantly. Yan Dan took a step to the left, and suddenly a hand stretched out to hold her left. The fingers are slender and somewhat cold.
She cried out tentatively: “Tang Zhou?” But when Tang Zhou responded from the right, she was shocked. Who is the person standing on her left? The man chuckled, and neglected to walk around behind her, and said grimly: “Those who sent me Qiu, Zhuo.” When the last word was spoken, the voice was already far away.
The fire light in front of him, Ling Xuzi held the Huozhezi, the muscles on his face twitched slightly.
Qin Mingyang fell to the ground with a candle falling beside him, his brows were only red. Ling Xuzi picked up the candle, lit one, tore off half of his sleeves and wrapped his hands, and peeked under Qin Mingyang’s nose, already breathless. But the expression on his face was calm, not even half painful.
Tang Zhou walked closer: “It was a fatal blow to the eyebrows. But,” he knelt down, raised his hand and pressed Qin Mingyang on his body: “The body is already cold, definitely not just dead.”
Zhai Shang couldn’t help asking: “Wasn’t the one who came in with us before…”
Tang Zhou said indifferently: “It’s the person who spoke just now.”
“How is this possible? I went to Bluestone Town with him, and didn’t rush by separately!”
Yan Dan sighed and looked at him sympathetically: “That means you never knew that the person you were with was killed on the way, and the person who killed Qin Mingyang still pretended to be him and drove with you. Alas, think about it this way, if he wants to pretend to be any of us now, it won’t be difficult.”
Tang Zhou’s tone was cold: “Junior sister, you are naughty again.”
Zhai Shang made a quick sound in his throat, but he couldn’t speak, and looked at the others suspiciously.
Ling Xuzi distributed the candles to others: “Fortunately, there are still these candles. The road behind is always easier to walk.”
Yan Dan was about to say, “These candles weren’t left by that person”, so he listened to Tang Zhou’s whisper: “I think you are too leisurely, and want to return to the artifact to stay.”
Yan Dan pursed her mouth and said dissatisfied: “You threaten to come and threaten. That’s the sentence. Do you want to change it occasionally?”
Suddenly, boss Wu said dumbly: “Come and see!”
In the tomb in front, a stone door was half open, with five characters carved on it.
Those who send me Qiu Zhuo.
After a moment of silence, Tang Zhou stepped forward and pushed open the Shimen, and walked in.
Yan Dan had to follow, and after a while, he still said, “Actually, I touched that person’s hand when the candle was extinguished. Although it is cooler than the average person, it is not a ghost. I am sure that the other person is not a monster.”
Tang Zhou pondered: “Does that person have a cocoon on his hand?”
Yan Dan thought about it for a while: “No.”
Tang Zhou said: “That’s weird.” He saw the other’s puzzled eyes, and spread his hand out: “Look at my hand. I have practiced swordsmanship. There will be cocoons on my index finger and tiger’s mouth. No matter what weapon I use, Everyone will have a cocoon, but the position is different. In this way, how does he hurt people invisible?”
They walked more than a dozen steps, they heard footsteps behind them, and when they looked back, they saw that all the other five people followed in.
I walked deep in the tomb passage, and there were waves of water in my ears. Ling Xuzi said, “As far as the feng shui is concerned, this tomb is really for the burial of women. Women should be buried in places with water.”
In a blink of an eye, he has reached the end of the tomb, and another stone gate is in front of him. Boss Wu suddenly strode to the front and pulled the stone door hard, his face flushed red, but the stone door did not move. Wu Lao Er and Wu Lao San walked over immediately, and the three of them worked hard together, and Shimen made a creak and slowly opened.
The three of them rushed into the tomb and saw a low table in the tomb. In the middle of the low table was a gleaming night pearl. Boss Wu immediately stretched out his hand to take the bead, but the bead seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, so he couldn’t pick it up.
Yan Dan held a candle and went to illuminate the murals on the surrounding stone walls. Looking at the colors, this mural is still relatively new. The first picture shows a slim and slender woman sitting in front of the window, dressing in the mirror, and the willow branches outside the window are green, which is a good time for spring. The woman in the second painting is the same person as the one in the first. She kneels in the palace, and a man in a bright yellow dragon robe stands in front of her.
Tang Zhou stood beside her and whispered: “It really is a concubine buried here.”
The third picture, with thousands of troops and horses, has an extraordinary momentum, but it is drawn for war.
“I think this is the scene of Qi Xiang’s destruction of the country.” Tang Zhou looked at the fourth mural and his tone became heavier. “This concubine did not commit suicide, but was stuffed into a coffin by his subordinates to suffocate.”
Yan Dan nodded: “They just wanted to find a place to hide gold and silver jewelry. They just borrowed this name. It was really cruel to put the living in the coffin.”
As soon as the voice fell, I suddenly heard someone laughing wildly behind him. The laughter echoed in the tomb, and the shadow of the candle swayed, making the cemetery even more eerie and terrifying. Yan Dan hurriedly turned his head and saw a flash of blood in front of him. A burst of blood suddenly flew up and sprinkled on the mural. Boss Wu, holding a long knife in his hand, actually cut off the second child Wu behind him!
His eyes were red, his face twitched, and he suddenly rushed towards Tang Zhou. Tang Zhou avoided him, only to feel that he had touched something behind him, his feet vibrated, and the sound of a crossbow was faintly organic.
Boss Wu shot down and raised his long knife again, stirring up the wind, and slashing on the mural, and the rubble fell one after another. Tang Zhou’s long sword was unsheathed, and the green light flashed across the opponent’s throat. Boss Wu clutched his throat and hit the wall, convulsed for a while, and stopped moving. Wu Laosan roared and rushed towards Tang Zhou.
Zhai Shang stretched his foot and tripped, and Wu Laosan fell heavily to the ground.
Ling Xuzi sternly said: “Your eldest brother will only kill people if he is very poisonous and unconscious. If Tang Xian doesn’t take action, we can’t go out alive!”
As he spoke, the vibration under the tomb became louder and louder, and the sound of the crossbow became louder and louder. Tang Zhou suddenly felt that his feet were empty and fell into a tunnel. It was because he reacted very quickly, and immediately reached out to climb a stone wall beside him, but the stone wall was polished smoothly, and he couldn’t use any force at all, he could only slide down the corridor.
Yan Dan hadn’t fully reacted yet, and was immediately dragged down by a strong force. There is a turning point in the corridor, if it weren’t for her bodyguard with black magic, I’m afraid she would hit her head and bloodshed. With this force, she rushed out of the tunnel and slammed into something flexible. There was darkness in front of me, and I couldn’t see things at all. She stretched out her hand and touched it again, and then she heard someone slowly say in the dark in a chilly voice: “Have you touched enough?”
