Chapter 45 about Changming

I heard that Yun Ximing's appearance was very strange, I couldn't help but speed up my pace, and by the way, I told Uncle Lu about the Nine Gui Blood Gate, and as soon as Dazhe heard that the door couldn't be opened, he ran back desperately and tried to open the door from the inside, but it was useless, the wall didn't move at all, and the blood that flowed out of Dazhe's cut palm was enough to make a meal of blood, but the door never showed up again. He had no choice but to give up, follow me and continue to walk, this tomb is not long, ten minutes later we stood at the door of another tomb on the inside, this tomb is larger than all the tombs I have seen before, but it is particularly empty, only a coffin is placed in the middle of the tomb, and there is a painting hanging on the wall, probably hearing our footsteps, Yun Ximing came back to his senses and did not continue to be in a daze, turned to look at me, his expression was extremely complicated.

"What are you doing here? Hurry back! Yun Ximing said angrily.

"I'm sorry, Brother Childe, I tried just now, but I really can't open the door." Dazhe said and raised his palm, which was still dripping blood, and shrugged his shoulders, indicating that it was useless.

I deliberately avoided Yun Ximing's eyes and began to look around, his cold and angry eyes were about to melt me, and finally he decided to face the reality, sighed, and began to tell me what happened to him.

"As you all know, when I was injured and unconscious, I leaned against that wall, and I didn't think there was anything wrong, and then after you used those strange Lethe water to detoxify me, I regained a little bit of mobility, and while you were all busy packing up, I was going to rest against the wall for a while, and then the wall suddenly turned, and I was on the other side, and then everything else, you all know." Yun Ximing said.

"How did you know about the Nine Returns Blood Gate?" I asked.

"Didn't your grandma tell you?"

"Say what?"

"They used to rob tombs, huh?"

I shook my head, this is a big taboo in our Kui family, the last thing my grandma can tell others in her life is that she once went to the tomb, so I really don't know much about the tomb.

"That's the old Huang Li that my grandfather told me, there were five people who robbed the tomb together at that time, in addition to your grandma and my grandfather, there were three, they were different from ordinary tomb robbers, they picked those strange small tombs in the middle of nowhere to steal. The graves of those wealthy families in remote locations are the best choice, my grandfather said, the tombs of those princes and nobles are waiting for you to be buried, there are no nine lives like cats, just pick what you can do. ”

When I heard Yun Ximing say this, I suddenly remembered the episode in the third uncle's "Notes on Tomb Robbery", none of the tombs that the protagonist has robbed are not nine deaths. Thinking that my grandma and Grandpa Yun have been able to survive until now, I am afraid that being cautious and cautious in the matter of choosing a fight is also a considerable advantage. Da Zhe and Uncle Lu had already sat down, resting while waiting to hear Yun Ximing say the following.

"The other three people are called Flower Fairy, the tuba is called Hua Yun, he is a weak scholar, but he is very good at reading the leylines and feng shui, Bo Gu Tong Jin, is a bag to inquire, knows more things than a library, one is called Wen Bodhisattva, the tuba Wen is honest, is a stunned young man, because he dares to do anything, he is good, he is righteous, and he has many friends in the rivers and lakes, so there is nothing he can't do. The last one is called Xiao Xiaoxiao, there is such a number one person in the rivers and lakes, because he is said to be a descendant of the time of the drumming flea, he is a famous three-handed, and he has never missed a hand, but no one knows his tuba, only his nickname. Originally, the small team of five people did a lot of things in that era of war and chaos, but they were all sesame things, and they were able to live a prosperous life in that era, but something went wrong when they went to the grave once. My grandfather didn't say what kind of tomb that tomb was, only that they had just entered the tomb and something happened to them, so they retreated, and later my grandfather said that the mechanism that made them unlucky was this Nine Returns Blood Gate, and the little sign responsible for finding the way failed to come out of that door. ”

We were all silent in place, thinking about each other in our hearts, I don't know what others were thinking, and the question that has been haunting my mind is, was there no ghost puppet around my grandmother at that time? Feng's mother never left her grandmother three meters away, where was she at that time? Or did you say that there was no Feng Ma by Grandma's side at that time?

It seems that I can only find a chance to ask my grandmother about the story of Xiao Xiaoxiao, and now we are trapped in this simple tomb, at a loss. Maybe it was the first time he saw the coffin, Dazhe was extremely excited, and began to circle around the coffin, and Uncle Lu, who was watching it, was impatient and followed suit. Suddenly, Dazhe muttered.

"I said, Brother Gongzi, what kind of wax are you ordering, why is it so bright, and it won't be extinguished for so long." This was originally just a joke, but who knew that Yun Ximing was jumped.

"I didn't light wax."

We realized that something was wrong, and we felt the light in the tomb before we walked into the tomb just now, and people are also phototaxis animals, so where there is light, we will feel safe, so after entering the tomb, everyone only cares about listening to stories and studying coffins, and no one notices the source of this light. I originally thought that Yun Ximing lit the lantern in the tomb, but who knew that when I looked at it, I found that not only did Yun Ximing not light the lamp, but there was no lamp holder in this room at all. The bright, dazzling light came from the walls of this burial chamber, and the room itself would glow.

We began to look for the source of the light, and found that the light was strongest at the position of the wall about one meter and a half from the ground, and there were some small square holes distributed in a circle, and the light came from here. Yun Ximing pulled me aside and took out his sweater needle, only to see him probe left and right, and after a while he withdrew the sweater needle.

"There's no mechanism, and I know what the glow is."

"What is it?" The three of us said in unison.

"The Pearl of the Night."

"Pearl of the Night?!"

"Yes, all of them are night pearls, and there is a night pearl in every square hole here, and these square holes and the size of the night pearl just match, so the night pearl can't fall and is stuck in it." Yun Ximing pointed to a square hole and explained to us.

I took a closer look, and sure enough, those square holes were inlaid with night pearls of the same size, and Dazhe smacked his tongue on the side.

"My good boy, how many of them have to be."

Uncle Lu was also very surprised, "I have also followed the scientific expedition team to the tomb several times in the past two years, and I have seen a lot of Night Pearls, but I have never seen so many in this tomb." ”

"I said Yin Yin, what kind of old lady is it, it seems that their family is indeed quite rich, but they may have changed the night pearl and set it in this house, so the rest of the place is all in tatters." Dazhe didn't know the origin of the old lady's family and the village, so he was talking nonsense, and I didn't bother to explain, so I turned my head and asked Yun Ximing.

"It seems that these night pearls are not in danger, they are just for lighting, by the way, Ximing, what are you looking at when you were standing there in a daze just now?"
