Ling Yuan and Zhou Tong both maintained a timely silence, He Dongfang was even more angry when he saw it, he was about to speak, but saw Zhou Tong take a few steps forward and said to He Dongfang: " Professor He, this is actually the side tomb of the burial, you see, the corpses in the coffin are gone, the tomb robbers have always had four non-thieves, one of which is not to steal the corpse, when the Tanglin thief Sun Dianying robbed the tomb of Cixi, he stole the treasures of the coffin, and even picked up the silk and satin on Cixi's body, rudely pulled out the night pearl from Cixi's mouth, and did not steal the old corpse. ”

Zhou Tong patted the coffin and said to He Dongfang: "This coffin is an empty coffin, and there are six layers of coffins, which makes it clear that it is a trick, and the real tomb must be in another place." ”

When He Dongfang heard this, he calmed down a lot all of a sudden, although Zhou Tong went astray and took a fork in the road, it does not mean that Zhou Tong is incapable, on the contrary, Zhou Tong's ability he has seen, he is erudite and talkative, and he is not even less aware of archaeology than these old pedants.

Take a closer look, this tomb is simple in structure, there are few burial objects, the shape of the coffin is too exaggerated, it is indeed not like the real main tomb, the side tomb is indeed possible, but the four walls here are blocked, there is only one ear room, it is not like there will be a main tomb.

Zhou Tong's words also made Chu Zeyun listen, he felt that Zhou Tong could fool He Dongfang, because He Dongfang didn't see any wonders, Chu Zeyun saw it clearly, he took advantage of He Dongfang's efforts to pull the corner of Zhou Tong's clothes, and asked: "Zhou Tong, your reason is not appropriate, although you can hide it from him for a while, but it won't be long before he finds out that there is no main tomb here......

"Hide?" Zhou Tong said, "I didn't hide it from him. ”

Chu Zeyun: "?"

Zhou Tong: "This is indeed a fake tomb. The white feather evil blessing was not enough, and he couldn't continue the spirit of the previous year, so he borrowed the feng shui of this ancient tomb and built such a tomb on top of this ancient tomb. As a token of gratitude, he guarded the tomb for its owner from being disturbed by the outside world, so the cave ended here, and there was no sign of a tomb thief invasion. ”

Chu Zeyun looked at Zhou Tong in surprise: "You...... How do you know?"

"See. Zhou Tong said.

After Zhou Tong finished speaking, he walked towards He Dongfang and said to him, "Professor He is going here." He walked into Bai Yuxie's coffin with He Dongfang, who was suspicious, and Zhou Tong jumped into the coffin first, and when He Dongfang's eyes widened, he pulled an extremely inconspicuous mechanism in the coffin.

Immediately, the bottom of the coffin was withdrawn to the side, and the flexible mechanism did not look at all like an ancient creation, and the creaking sound of the gears quickly brought out a deep dark hole.

This is a tunnel leading to the underground, and the stone slabs are damp, and Zhou Tong said to Professor He, "This is the road to the main tomb." ”

Professor He was still suspicious, Zhou Tong jumped down in front of him, Professor He hesitated, and his academic curiosity made him follow Zhou Tong into the catacomb.

Professor He was followed by Chu Zeyun and Zhao Han, while Ling Yuan stayed in Bai Yuxie's tomb and smashed all the coffins of the six layers that might affect the others.

Zhou Tong flashed a flashlight, reflecting the murals on both sides, which were still intact under the precipitation of the years.

The golden crow stepped on the tall plane tree, its wings spread like a roc, and behind him there were nine huge suns in turn, and the heavenly river flowed under the giant tree, and the big fish jumped out of the water, sparkling, and even the water droplets burst out of the water were lifelike.

Professor He's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he trembled and said, "This—this is ......."

Zhou Tong looked back and saw that Professor He was looking at a leaf stuck to the mural in surprise.

It was indeed a leaf, a leaf that had not yet lost its vitality.

It is tender and plump, and its emerald green leaves are full along the veins, full of enthusiasm.

Spend thousands of years in such tombs without withering leaves.

He Dongfang put on gloves and carefully touched the leaf, and found that something seemed to be sticking to the surface of the leaf, and he wiped it all the way along the layer, but found that the entire mural was smeared with a layer of protective liquid.

Zhou Tong said: "It's also white mud." ”

He Dongfang nodded excitedly, he couldn't wait to see the things in the ancient tomb, and his footsteps couldn't help but speed up a lot, and he had long forgotten that in this kind of dark ancient tomb, there might be any unknown dangers, and he took the lead in front of Zhou Tong.

"Professor He!" Zhao Han, who was walking at the end, shouted nervously, where could He Dongfang still hear Zhao Han's voice, and he was so excited that outsiders were gone.

Zhao Han looked at Zhou Tong, "Take care of Professor He." ”

"It's fine. Zhou Tong said, "The inside of this tomb is very clean. ”

He followed behind He Dongfang slowly, and carefully illuminated the road under He Dongfang's feet with a flashlight.

The road closed when it encountered a stone wall, and Zhou Tong said regretfully: "We can't open this stone wall alone." ”

"Alas. He Dongfang also sighed regretfully, but the previous mural and the leaf that was accidentally pasted on the mural were enough to make him excited, and he was also convinced of the situation of the main tomb.

The ancient tombs must be sealed, and some barbaric methods must be used to open the tombs, although Zhou Tong has these barbaric methods, but it is very difficult to show his hand in front of He Dongfang, so he can only persuade He Dongfang: "Professor He, let's wait for the workers to come down and dig." I believe that this precious historical site will be seen in less than three or five days. ”

"Good. He Dongfang nodded.

Several people returned along the same path, and at this moment, a strange yin qi suddenly appeared behind the stone gate behind them, Zhou Tong frowned slightly, and looked at Chu Zeyun, the compass in Chu Zeyun's hand buzzed, confirming what Zhou Tong felt.

Chu Zeyun whispered, "What is it?"

Zhou Tong looked at the flag that poked out of the stone slab and said, "It's the Yin soldiers stepping on the realm." ”

Zhao Han looked helpless: "...... Again?"

Zhou Tong jokingly said: "Don't you allow people to get lost?"

Chu Zeyun and Zhao Han: "......"

In the face of the entry of the Yin soldiers, Zhao Han was experienced, but last time Zhou Tong mentioned to him the matter of the fake Yin soldiers, he was not sure, he asked Zhou Tong: "This time?"

"It's true. Zhou Tong said to He Dongfang, "Professor He, I have wronged you." ”

He Dongfang's eyes immediately widened: "What are you doing?!What are you going to do?!"

Zhou Tong knocked He Dongfang unconscious without saying a word, and pressed him to the ground, and several people lay on the ground without raising their heads.

The gloomy aura swept over his body, and Zhou Tong quietly felt the process of those Yin soldiers stepping over their bodies.

Although those feelings are not real, they can be felt clearly, especially when they penetrate the body, bringing a kind of yin and evil aura that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, and a trained person like Rao is Zhao Han can't stand it.

Zhou Tong quietly sent Zhao Han a little aura, and Zhao Han, who was a little more comfortable, looked at Zhou Tong and smiled gratefully.

He Dongfang, who was fainting beside him, suddenly moved, obviously Zhou Tong's hand strength was small, or under the influence of the Yin soldiers' entry, he was awakened by the stimulation of Yin Qi, he opened his eyes and muttered, "What's the matter...... My old waist. ”

In an instant, the advancing Yin soldiers suddenly stopped moving, and the Yin soldiers led by them suddenly turned their heads around, and a pair of gloomy eyes stared at He Dongfang.

He Dongfang happened to raise his head and greeted the Yin soldiers.

The Yin soldier rode a tall horse, half of his face fell into the black mist, staring at He Dongfang with a pair of gloomy eyes glowing red, and there was no love in those eyes.

Seeing this Yin soldier, He Dongfang didn't know what to do, and his first reaction was that young people were playing cosplay, but in this situation, how could there be young people running into this kind of ancient tomb to play cosplay?

He Dongfang shouted: "Zhou Tong?"

Zhou Tong: "......"

The Yin Soldier turned his horse's head and walked over to He Dongfang's location, Zhou Tong glanced over He Dongfang's shoulder, and saw that He Dongfang's Yang Fire had left his body and was exposed to his shoulder, and the cluster of faint blue flames was still burning vigorously at first, but as the Yin Soldiers approached step by step, the fire of the Yang Fire gradually decreased, and it tended to be extinguished.

He Dongfang's eyes gradually became blurred as the fire of the yang fire decreased, but his mind was very clear, but his body reaction could not keep up with the reaction of his brain, and he watched nervously as the yin soldier walked beside him.

He stood beside He Dongfang with a □□ beating horse in his hand, and a sinister smile suddenly appeared on the face of the frightened ghost.

He Dongfang's eyes widened suddenly, and under the shroud of fear, he realized how real the scene in front of him was.

He has lived most of his life, and he will step into the coffin in another ten or twenty years, and he never thought that there would be such a day in the rest of his life.

This is not the most important thing, but the most important thing is that he finds that his worldview is crumbling little by little......

All kinds of strange stories that he had read when he was young flooded into his mind in an instant, and He Dongfang felt for the first time that the absurd legends he had read would have such a great possibility of survival.

The son was silent, and the strange force was confused.

It's not because there are no ghosts in this world, but just because they don't say it because they are afraid.

His old heart...... It's about to stop beating.

"Order to stop evil spirits, urgent as a law!" Zhou Tong snorted lightly, and the Yin chapter suddenly floated above his head, and the Yin soldier's action of waving Changge was fixed in mid-air.

Zhou Tong hurriedly said to He Dongfang: "Those who are fighting in the army are all moving forward in arrays. Professor Ho learned my hand and recited it three times. ”

There is a note in "Hug Puzi, Inner Chapter Volume 17, Dengshi": "Those who are fighting in the army are all moving forward in arrays", all nine characters are often used as secret blessings, and everything is refutated. The nine-character mantra has its own meaning, and reciting it three times in a row is all-encompassing.

He Dongfang was stunned for a moment, and under great fear, he subconsciously did what Zhou Tong said, he clumsily learned Zhou Tong's trick and pinched out a four-like ...... But it's enough.

Yin Zhang shook and hummed, and Zhou Tong urged: "Recite the mantra quickly." ”

He Dongfang's lips trembled and he said: "Those who are fighting in the army, all ...... are arrays to move forward" After repeating it three times, Yin Zhang trembled and fell back into Zhou Tong's hands.

The Yin soldier's swinging action was drawn down, but when he touched He Dongfang, he was intercepted by something, He Dongfang looked at the Changge hanging above his head in a daze, and was so frightened that he couldn't help but tremble.

The Yin soldier who was sitting on the horse lowered his waist and leaned his face down, only a few centimeters away from He Dongfang, and the yin qi swayed in every pore of He Dongfang, He Dongfang almost couldn't hold back his sneezing.

The Yin soldier retracted his body in disappointment, turned his horse's head and returned to the group.

The Yin Soldiers moved again, and walked all the way up the corridor.

After all the aura of the Yin soldiers dissipated, Zhao Han and Chu Zeyun got up from the ground and asked in a cold sweat, "Are they gone?"

"Gone. Zhou Tong withdrew his gaze from the tail of the Yin soldier and looked at He Dongfang, "Professor He, are you still ......?"

Before he could speak, he found that He Dongfang had already rolled his eyes and fainted because he was too frightened.

Zhao Han said in understanding: "It's really exciting...... It's not easy for the elderly to ......."

Zhou Tong handed He Dongfang to Zhao Han and said, "I'm going to go up and have a look." He quickly ran up the stairs, and Chu Zeyun hurriedly followed, asking, "Maybe they are up there." ”

"Ling Yuan is still there. Zhou Tong said that he walked up the stairs all the way quickly, but found no trace of the Yin soldiers.

Ling Yuan was sitting there bored with the frost, and after seeing Zhou Tong hurrying up, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"You didn't see the Yin Soldiers?"

"See. Ling Yuan casually played with the frost, his eyes were full of satisfaction, he couldn't put it down, and said casually, "Just left." ”

Zhou Tong: "......"

How could he be worried about Ling Yuan...... He should be worried about those Yin soldiers......

There was something going on in the tomb here, and Zhao Han contacted the people above and sent them out.

When Ling Yuan came out of the tomb, the people around him were surprised, seeing that he was dressed in ancient costume, with long hair, and holding a sword that looked quite powerful in his hand, at first glance, he looked like a living corpse jumping out of the ancient tomb. Zhou Tong smiled and explained that this was a friend of his, and everyone didn't think much about it when they saw that Ling Yuan was flesh and blood, and dared to stand under the sun, and acquiesced to Zhou Tong's explanation.

He Dongfang's students rushed over to visit He Dongfang and asked about the situation in Zhao Han's tomb, and Zhao Han explained that there was toxic gas in the tomb, which stunned He Dongfang, and it would be good to go back to the doctor to see it.

Zhou Tong specially contacted the village chief, secretly communicated with the doctor, shielded He Dongfang's students, first expelled the residual evil qi for He Dongfang, and finally took him to the hot spring to soak for a while to completely expel the yin evil qi left by the Yin soldiers.

He Dongfang woke up after soaking, and at first glance he saw Zhou Tong who was sitting in the lounge next to the hot spring reading a book, and hurriedly asked, "Where is this?"

"Spa . ”

"I'm not in the ancient tomb?" He Dongfang asked suspiciously.

Zhou Tong: "Professor He inhaled poisonous gas and fell into a coma, don't you remember?" He had such an expression on his face, which made He Dongfang wonder if the Yin Soldier Realm he had seen before was real.

But the scene was so clear that his pores could remember the cold feeling when the Yin soldier on a tall horse approached him.

In this life, even the coldest winter has not been like this.

He Dongfang shuddered in fear, he looked at Zhou Tong, his eyes were a little confused, and he deeply felt that he couldn't understand Zhou Tong at all.

What he had abandoned before had become so precious in that moment that it had even saved his life. Nowadays, many people like to talk about Feng Shui, Yang House and Yin House, and evil magic weapons, he is not against this kind of atmosphere, but it is put into the category of environmental science, no matter how miraculous it is, it is also a summary of the experience of predecessors, through guò reasoning and calculus, carefully calculated, or scientific things.

And yet what happened today...... It's really ...... It's so unscientific......

Seeing the struggle on He Dongfang's face, it was obvious that an old worldview was about to collapse, but He Dongfang himself didn't want him to collapse and was trying his best to save it.

Zhou Tong rescued He Dongfang and said, "Professor He, just treat him as an illusion, your research work is not in this regard, is it?"

When He Dongfang heard this, he was like an initiation, and he suddenly realized a lot.

Yes, he is responsible for the research and restoration of ancient cultural relics, even if these gods and ghosts really exist, what does it have to do with him? He just needs to do what he needs to be responsible for, in this world, each has its own duties, the division of labor is clear, and he has no plans to change careers at present.

Forget it...... Didn't his little grandson say that in the current world, worldview is often in the process of being reshaped and reinvented, and he is getting older, so he should be fashionable.

Thinking of what happened in the ancient tomb, He Dongfang beckoned to Zhou Tong and said, "Zhou Tong, come on, help the old man rub my back." ”

Zhou Tong: "......"

Subsequently, the excavation work continued, and the staff professionally and carefully followed the road pointed out by Zhou Tong and dug up an ancient tomb in the late Western Han Dynasty under the tomb of Bai Yuxie.

There is an almost intact female corpse in the ancient tomb, which has become a sensation in the entire archaeological community, there is news about how the female corpse is preserved, what other burial goods are placed in the ancient tomb, and there are countless interviews to find He Dongfang's door.

Although He Dongfang is a little pedantic, he is not a stupid person in the end, he knows that some things can be said and some things cannot be said, he is only responsible for his academic research, as for other things, it is naturally handled by government agencies. Even if he has doubts in his heart, once he tries to seek truth from these doubts, the price he has to pay is not something that a scholar can afford.

got such a large Western Han Dynasty tomb, and in the next few years or even more than ten years, he will be busy.

***

City A, heavy rain pours.

Ling Yuan, who had long hair and loose hair, walked behind Zhou Tong, and his handsome and impatient facial features attracted the attention of countless people.

He was dressed in ancient costumes, but he refused to cut his long hair, but fortunately, this society is relatively open now, and Ling Yuan is still good-looking, so Zhou Tong let him stay.

As soon as I got off the airport, I saw a dignified shadow from a long distance.

Holding the umbrella upright, twisting his chubby body and running over, when he saw Zhou Tong, he hurriedly handed over another umbrella in his hand, "Xiaotong, I had a nightmare a few nights ago, I dreamed of something bad, but I was worried about death, and I was relieved to see you come back safely." ”

"The cell phone doesn't have a good signal in the countryside. Zhou Tong said apologetically, "Besides, dreams are all reversed, nightmares may be a good thing, you don't have to worry." ”

"Hey!" said with a straight smile, "Anyway, you have the ability, don't worry about me, maybe I'll have to hug your thighs in the future!"

Ling Yuan, who was entangled in the security check and was one step behind, walked over, and was very surprised to see him, feeling that this face looked familiar, thinking about it carefully, and suddenly recalled, staring at Ling Yuan as if he had seen a ghost, "You, you, you...... You...... Aren't you Xiaotong's boyfriend?"

"Huh?" Zhou Tong was stunned for a moment, only then did he remember a joke he had made with Duan Zheng before, Duan Zheng saw that Ling Yuan was so good-looking and imposing, he was not an ordinary person at first glance, and he was quite satisfied, and said with the same seriousness as the father who was about to marry his daughter, "My little Tong is the best, considerate and gentle, now that you are not a ghost, you have to treat him well." "The upright man is a head shorter than Ling Yuan, and if he wants to pat Ling Yuan on the shoulder, he has to tiptoe and try hard to hook Ling Yuan, but Ling Yuan retreats lightly and dodges it.

He withdrew his hand a little embarrassed, suddenly remembered a question, looked left and right, and asked cautiously, "Hey, you're not a ghost now, are you?"

Ling Yuan raised his eyebrows to look at him, and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?"

Duanzheng pinched Ling Yuan's powerful arm boldly, this time Ling Yuan didn't hide from Zhou Tong's face, the obvious muscle touch made him believe it, and he accepted it when he saw it, took it back, and said, "It's a person, but I brought an umbrella." ”

Ling Yuan felt that he was a little unable to keep up with the proper brain circuits......

Zhou Tong broke the awkward conversation between the two with a smile, and said, "It's okay, I'll just have an umbrella with him." ”

looked at Zhou Tong with a bitter face: "Xiaotong, we used to use an umbrella." ”

Ling Yuan said, "Who is with you and us?"

He immediately walked out of the airport with an umbrella: "Let's go, go home, I invite you to eat delicious food and a big meal." ”

Zhou Tong couldn't help laughing, every time he met Duanzheng, no matter how tired he was before, he would dissipate no matter how tired he was, remembering that when he touched humanity before, he knelt down in the rain and cried, Zhou Tong stuffed the umbrella in his hand into Ling Yuan's arms, and caught up with Dianzheng: "I'll get an umbrella with you." ”

Ling Yuan: "...... Feed. ”

Zhou Tong turned around and smiled narrowly at Ling Yuan, those dark eyes were shining, Ling Yuan saw that his heart moved, and the reluctance he was full of disappeared at once, he pulled the long hair scattered on his temples behind his ears, and under the gaze of the people around him, his beautiful hand held the handle of the umbrella, opened the umbrella with a light push, and followed them into the rain.

Three or five steps beside Zhou Tong, he followed closely, like a silent protector, quietly guarding his territory.

Zhou Tong's footsteps suddenly stopped, and Ling Yuan also stopped with him.

"What's wrong?"

Not far in front of Zhou Tong, there was a girl holding an umbrella and getting into a luxury car, looking at Zhou Tong's gaze, just in time to see the girl's beautiful side face, he laughed ambiguously twice, remembered that Zhou Tong's boyfriend who was following behind him, and immediately put away a joking laugh.

Ling Yuan asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"That girl ......," Zhou Tong said suspiciously, "The qi on her body is so strange, obviously there are so many spiritual qi wrapped around her body, but the qi of the whole person itself seems very weak, and it may be broken at any time, that is, she may die at any time." ”
