Walking down the stone stairs, Yo Mo reached the bottom in more than 30 steps, and there was a horizontal stone road in front of you. Oil lamps are lit on the stone walls on both sides of the road, and a ball of bean-sized lights stretches forward, and the road is sprinkled with dim lights.

Walked forward about 200 steps to the end of the road, and was greeted by a large stone gate of the palace style, the stone door on the right was engraved with the word "Ming", and the stone door on the left was engraved with the word "mound".

Ning Tao said: "Mingzuka, is this a grave?"

Yin Molan nodded.

"Whose grave?" Ning Tao asked.

Yin Molan's voice was slightly heavy, "Da Ming." After a pause, he said: "This used to be a base for the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end it failed. There are weapons, armor, and the remains of Zhu Hongyu, the daughter of the third prince of Zhu. ”

An indescribable feeling suddenly surged in Ning Tao's heart. His historical achievements have always been very good, and he also has a certain understanding of those things in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. The third prince of Zhu mentioned by Yin Molan is the fifth son of Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, whose real name is Zhu Cihuan. After the Qing soldiers entered the customs, they killed all the members of the Ming Dynasty royal family, only this Zhu Cihuan survived, was taken in by an official surnamed Wang, changed his name to Wang Tuyuan, and lived until he was more than seventy years old before being discovered by the Qing court, and the family was killed by the Qing court. He has a daughter named Zhu Hongyu, and folk history also says that she had a relationship with Yongzheng. There is also a theory that she was the daughter of Yang Qilong, a righteous man who opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and later hanged herself in front of the grave of the real third prince Zhu. These are all legends and stories in folk history, and now they are impossible to study. Unexpectedly, the remains of the legendary Vermilion Jade were actually here.

Yin Molan pushed open the stone door.

Behind the stone gate is a natural cave, at least the square area in front of the front, there are many large and small forks on the cave wall, there is no light inside, it is dark, and it is not clear what is inside. On the top of the cave above, hanging large and small, strange stone stalactites. The sound of ticking echoes in the quiet space.

There is a spring pool in the middle of the cave, gurgling and bubbling with cold air. This cave is also cold because of its existence, and the temperature is almost zero.

The pool of cold springs was obviously not an ordinary mountain spring.

Ning Tao suddenly remembered the first time he came to Dawan Village, and the spiritual soil he detected with the earth-seeking inkstone was underground. His heart moved, and he quietly awakened the state of seeing and smelling his eyes and nose, and as a result, he saw that the cold air coming out of the cold spring was mixed with spiritual energy, and the spiritual soil detected by the earth-seeking inkstone was indeed in the spring pool where the cold spring gathered.

Yin Molan said: "The remains of Zhu Hongyu are in that spring pool, I won't hide it from you, there is spiritual soil under that spring, and the spring water is also a natural cold spring spirit, and the remains of the red jade girl have been stored in it for hundreds of years without decaying." ”

"Can I go and take a look?" Ning Tao couldn't control his curiosity anymore, the remains of a Ming woman have been preserved to this day, if this spreads, it will definitely be sensational news in the world!

Yin Molan said: "Of course, come with me." ”

Ning Tao and Qing chased followed Yin Molan to the side of Lengquan Quantan, and Zou Yulin knelt on the ground with his legs bent. Ning Tao was slightly stunned, although he did not kneel, he also bowed deeply. Just as he was bending over, his gaze moved to the cold spirit spring that was full of cold air, and as a result, his back skin was numb.

The crystal clear pool was soaked in a man's brain tissue, with a miserable white eyeball and a palm-sized skull. The miserable white eyes seemed to be staring at the people on the shore, as if they would turn at any time, what a mad man!

In Ning Tao's imagination, there should be a stunning beauty lying in the spring pool, although she is dead, but with the aura of the spiritual soil and the freezing effect of the cold spiritual spring, the body did not decay, but she didn't expect that the person who was soaking in the spring pool was actually such a "character beauty".

Qing Chai was obviously disgusted too, and she retreated after only one look, and even bowed.

Ning Tao endured the feeling of nausea, his eyes moved away from Zhu Hongyu's brain tissue, and then he saw a piece of spiritual soil at the bottom of the spring pool, irregular shape, and almost half smaller than the spiritual soil he had obtained from the small island in the river. But even this small piece of spiritual land is a cultivation resource that makes people blush. In this world where spiritual energy is scarce, this small piece of spiritual land is undoubtedly the value of a pot of water in the desert for cultivators.

After seeing the spiritual land, Ning Tao also retreated, and said a kind word, "Red Jade girl, disturb, you can rest in peace." ”

He looked away again, and he saw some large wooden chests containing armor and dozens of weapon racks with knives, swords, bows, and the like. However, the well-preserved weapons and armor have not escaped the erosion of time, one by one the weapons are rusty, the bowstrings are broken, and the armor is rotten, and it is impossible to use it at all.

He also saw a cardboard box with the word "ice cream" printed on it in a corner, and the mystery of where the ice cream came from was solved.

Yin Molan suddenly reached into Quantan and scooped up the palm-sized skull.

Ning Tao was very curious in his heart why Yin Molan picked up the skull, but he didn't ask.

Yin Molan handed the skull to Ning Tao and said, "The Dan Fang of Xun Zu Dan is on top of this skull, take a look." ”

Ning Tao felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he still reached out and took the skull. The skull was in his hands, and a cold feeling suddenly came, but that was the reason why the cold spirit spring was soaking, it was just an ordinary skull.

There was nothing on the front of the skull, and Ning Tao flipped it over.

On the back of the skull there are small cyan characters: All things have roots, and finding roots and asking ancestors can lead to the Tao. There are spirits in heaven and earth, and those who refine the spirit are immortals. The root is born in the soil, which is based on the spirit soil of the ancestral pill, plus 50 yuan of 1,000-year-old ginseng, 60 yuan of dry bones of a 100-year-old woman, and 12 roots of virgin white hair......

There are a total of twenty-seven kinds of medicinal herbs and spiritual materials on the skull, but not all of them.

Ning Tao was surprised and confused in his heart, and secretly said in his heart: "Everything has roots, and you can find the Tao by asking your ancestors for their roots." This sentence can be understood to mean that all things are connected, and some specific information will also be passed down in all things, and the mystery of the origin of all things is hidden in it. From a scientific point of view, it means that there are important secrets hidden in the gene chain, even the secrets of the origin of humans and other species, and those secrets can be solved to achieve enlightenment. There are spirits in heaven and earth, and those who refine the spirit are immortals. Isn't this sentence understandable as ...... Those who have successfully sought their ancestors and attained enlightenment can use the aura of heaven and earth to become immortals?"

These are all thoughts elicited by a skull.

"Brother Ning, have you remembered?" Yin Molan asked. As a blood alliance, his name for Ning Tao has also changed.

Ning Tao put away his thoughts, "Senior Yin, there are so many contents, I'm afraid that I will miss them, I want to copy it down, is it okay?"

"Yes. Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao opened the small medicine box, took out a pen and an ordinary prescription stick, and then began to copy the contents on the skull.

"I gave Lin Qinghua half of the Danfang content, and he made some additions from a biological point of view, some breakthroughs, but it was still too far from my expectations. Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao asked casually: "How much content did you give Liang Keming's Danfang?"

Yin Molan said: "It's still half, but I've replaced some spiritual materials and medicines. Liang Keming has the research foundation left by Lin Qinghua, and his starting point is higher than Lin Qinghua. He is also a brilliant scientist in biology, but I don't know what he will work out. ”

After Ning Tao finished copying, he handed the skull back to Yin Molan.

Yin Molan held the skull in both hands and carefully put it back into the Cold Spirit Spring.

Ning Tao said tentatively: "Why is this the only thing left for the red jade girl?"

Yin Molan knelt and kowtowed three times before standing up and talking to Ning Tao, "The history books say that she hanged herself, but that's not true, she is ......"

"What is she?" Ning Tao asked.

Yin Molan didn't say anything, "I'll naturally tell you after you refine the Xun Zu Dan." ”

Ning Tao said: "Okay, you can talk to me when I refine it." Now, I want to learn from you about the situation in the Tang Sect, this is all right, right?"

Yin Molan said: "Of course there is no problem, but you have to be mentally prepared, because what you have to deal with is not actually an ancient Jianghu sect, but a huge interest group." Some people in the Tang Sect have entered the political circles as officials, some people have entered the military circles and become military officers, and some people have started businesses and companies, and a family has accumulated for hundreds of years, can you imagine what kind of interest group it is?"

Ning Tao smiled indifferently, he didn't care.

Yin Mo seemed to see through Ning Tao's thoughts, "Okay, I'll give you some dry goods." Tangmen has a secret nest in Daba Mountain, and you can understand it as the ancestral house of Tangmen. Now the headquarters of Tangmen is in Shancheng, Jiangbei High-tech Zone, Tang's Group, and Dingtian Building. ”

"This is indeed a very valuable piece of information, thank you, Senior Yin. Ning Tao said: "In addition, I would like to ask Senior Yin to do me a favor." ”

"What do you want me to do?"

"Help me find a guy named Huai Kebing, he is in the mountain city, he is Tang Huaiyu's son. ”

"Tang Huaiyu's son, that is Tang Shoucheng's nephew. Okay, no problem, give me two days and I'll find him. After a pause, Yin Molan added, "What about after you find it?"

Ning Tao smiled slightly, "Just tell me, and I'll do the rest." I just need to fight against that old guy from Tang Tianren, and you can help with the punch. ”

"Then he must die, and he can't leave a legacy behind. A hint of coldness flashed in Yin Molan's eyes.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Ning Tao's mouth, "Cut the grass and eradicate the roots." ”

"Go back and wait for my news, and keep it a secret. Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao nodded, and then left with Qing Chase.

Along the way, Ning Tao's mind couldn't help but think about the pale brain tissue, the pale eyes and the skull......

Can the ancestor Dan really find the root and ask the ancestors, and ascend to the immortal?

Isn't that too mysterious?
