Chapter Seventy-One: A Photograph
The fog here is very similar to what we see on the top of Mount Tai's Jade Emperor, and it seems that we are back at the top of the Jade Emperor again.
After the body was dry, we walked forward cautiously.
The pebbles on the ground are so smooth that it feels like they've been polished.
There are shallow puddles in the crevices of some of the pebbles.
"Ahh
I saw Wu Jiaxin, who had been tugging at the corner of my clothes, pointing to a pebble on the ground, with a look of fear in her eyes.
When I looked clearly, I found that there were some bones mixed in.
The bone stubble of the white flower is not noticeable among the pebbles at all.
When we found this bone, we immediately found another.
It seems that the entire cobblestone land was piled up with bone stubble, except for a few pieces of wood.
The further you go, the more intact the body remains.
Unlike the bone stubble outside, there were some scattered bones inside, which stinked, and there were many intact corpses lying on the ground.
I couldn't help but wonder how they died, there were some traces of a fight around, but it didn't look like a fight with each other.
It can even be said to be a kind of defensive circle and unanimous appearance.
Then it means that there is an external force when all this happens.
Not only did I see it, but they all saw the strangeness here, except for Wu Jiaxin, who was ignorant and afraid of dead bodies.
"I'm scared!" Wu Jiaxin shrank behind me, almost trying to block her whole body with my back.
I looked at Wu Jiaxin's appearance and knew that if there was any weird scene later, she would be useless, so I had to take off my trench coat and put it on her.
The third grandmother said that this windbreaker can block external evils, and it can be regarded as a strong force when fighting against the jade scorpion, it is a rare treasure, and now it is used to protect Wu Jiaxin.
I took off the nails of the coffin and held it in my hand, and if something was wrong, I tried it first.
After walking for about a few minutes, the corpses here were decomposing slowly, and many of the corpses here felt as if they had just died.
I didn't avoid the dead bodies, but groped around them.
I hope to be able to find the Gu Gate things first, so that I can be considered to have a bottom in my heart.
There are so many dead people in this place, maybe it is the place where the master of the Gu Sect is forced to discard the objects on his body.
"Hey, isn't this Zhang Da lame? It turns out that he died here!" the old Taoist priest looked at a dead corpse with some sadness.
"Do you know this person?" I asked.
"Well, Zhang Da Cripple is an expert in Fu Zheng, that is, the so-called veteran of ink among your Mr. Bai. "The old Taoist priest wanted to take some pebbles and bury him.
Suddenly, I saw that something seemed to be bulging in the chest of this man named Zhang Da Cripple.
I'll go over and take it out.
It was found that it was a broken brush, and the barrel of the pen was still jade, and it seemed that the texture of this jade was very good.
Under the pen, there is also an old photograph that has been somewhat yellowed.
I pulled out the photograph and looked at it, and my mood immediately fluctuated.
Although the face of this big cripple is somewhat deformed, he can vaguely recognize him from it, and he is the first on the left side of the photo.
And there are five more people in this picture, and one of them is my grandfather.
I've seen pictures of my grandfather when he was young, and I recognize it at a glance.
Grandpa was wearing a black coat at the time, and the five of them were standing at a scenic spot to take pictures.
I saw that this picture was printed with the time and place at that time.
It was Tarzan twenty years ago.
That is to say, before Grandpa went to find Grandpa Yuan.
Could it be that Grandpa Yuan went to find Grandpa Yuan immediately after he went out of here.
At that time, I was not born yet, and I should have gone to find Grandpa Yuan a year or two after I was born.
Then it means that the big cripple in front of him is with my grandfather.
But why did grandpa come out, but he died here.
If you want to know all this, I'm afraid you have to find all the people in the photo.
I was immediately intrigued and looked around at the dead bodies to compare the photos and hopefully find some more bones.
I almost forgot if there was danger around me, I was just looking underground.
I saw a dead man again, who looked very much like the young man who was holding my grandfather next to him.
It looked like the man was still relatively young at the time.
"Tut-tut! It's terrible! Isn't this the Tianjiao of the previous generation of the Zhang family?" The old Taoist priest seemed to know these people, and kept chattering.
"Do you know all these people?" I immediately showed him the picture.
The old Taoist priest wanted to see this photo from the beginning, but unfortunately I was a little excited as soon as I got the photo, and I kept looking for the dead person.
The old Taoist priest looked at the photo and shook his head: "I know these two people, they are not familiar with each other, except for your grandfather, I have never seen the other two."
I stared at the old Taoist priest tightly to make sure that he was not coaxing me to play, and then I was sure of the old Taoist priest's words.
So that means the problem is between these two people.
I thought before that grandpa's sudden amnesia was probably because he was stung by a transparent scorpion, and with grandpa's skills, if those transparent scorpions wanted to attack by themselves, it would be impossible, so it was possible that someone familiar would make a move.
So that means that if I don't find evidence of transparent scorpions on these two corpses, it is likely that the other two people did it.
But why did they want to hurt my grandfather, if this thing was to make grandpa forget what happened in the Yunhai Painting Building, then why did grandpa still remember the place of Yunhai Painting Building, or could it be that grandpa saw something that should not be seen, which made them have a bad heart towards grandpa.
It doesn't make sense at all, if it's just to make grandpa forget Yunhai Painting Building, just like Wu Jiaxin, you can directly forget more memories, wouldn't it be troublesome, or that person is likely to deliberately let grandpa forget all this, and don't want grandpa to forget everything.
Then it may be that it confirms my conjecture, that is, when that person did it, he wanted to make his grandfather forget some recent events without affecting his current life.
In this way, it seems that he has no intention of killing his grandfather.
But why did the other two die?
If it was because there was something around that was killed, it was impossible for only two people to die, they must have come together to help each other, and once two died, the rest of the people should be even more miserable.
Not to mention that grandpa went back with full beard and full shadow.
I shook my head, thinking about the headache of these thoughts.
I need more information.
I immediately searched around.
Maybe I was making too much noise when I was a little irritable.
I always felt like something was staring at me not far away.
I sensed the source, and I followed the senses to look at it.
I always felt like I was about to understand something.
After walking for a while, not only did I have this feeling of being targeted, but Zhao Qian and others had it.
We wonder what kind of powerful thing would dare to expose its position so presumptuously.
You must know that the snakes and scorpions before were quietly attacking, so isn't there something more powerful here? Otherwise, how could we be so confident that we could discover it?
But I'm also very careful, maybe it's a trap.
It didn't take long for me to find out how that feeling of staring at me came from.
The two statues, more than a dozen meters high, are looking down on us, as if looking down on us humble ants.
This isn't what makes it feel weird.
What makes me even more strange is that although these two statues are looking downward, one of them is the image of a literati and the other is the image of a military general, both of whom are images of ancient people, but they are holding two huge stone chains in their hands.
They pulled the chains straight.
At the other end of the chain is a seven-story building in the style of an ancient pavilion.
This building is very similar to the sea of clouds painting building we see in the mirage.
I looked at the moisture around me, and I looked at the sunlight in the distance.
It seems to understand that the appearance of the so-called Yunhai Painting Building may be that the reflection formed by this pavilion is refracted by the water vapor.
In other words, the so-called Yunhai Painting Building they saw was actually just a phantom of this pavilion.
So why do those people who come out of the Yunhai Painting Building respect this place so much, and even the ancients painted, what is this for?
I don't have the time to keep thinking about this nonsense.
There's something strange about this pavilion, and the strange thing about it is that it's upside down.
On the roof of the building there is a long iron spear, two meters from the ground, and at the lower end of the iron spear, there is a boxy stone platform with a stone box on the stone platform.
I don't know if I'm a little delusional.
I always felt that although this upside-down attic was a tendency to almost fall, when I saw this stone box, I felt that the upside-down attic could not be pressed down at all.
It's as if there is some power in this stone box to support this attic.
I asked Zhao Qian, and he felt the same way.
The old Taoist priest and the fat monk on the side were muttering and didn't know what to say, as if they were very intense.
Just when I was a little shocked by this scene, I suddenly saw a package not far in front of the stone platform, which was scattered with all kinds of things, and what immediately caught my attention was that there was a book similar to the style of an ancient book.
Could it be that this is the book that Gu Men asked me to find?
I was just going to go over and see if it was.
"Get out of here!" came from behind us.
We dodged it.
The voice was very familiar, it was the voice of the swordsman.
When I saw Zhao Gan and the others coming back, I thought that the rest of the people were already dead, but I didn't expect that the swordsman was still alive.
The moment I dodged away, the knife man rushed almost to my face.
