Chapter 203: Digging the Grave (II)
"Grass, I really regret it, why did I think to dig so deep in the first place? The phrase "peace in the ground" is for good people. I should have sprinkled the ashes directly on the ground. These are all Ye Tian's complaints, but these seem to be a little vicious, and I don't know if Ye Tian did it unintentionally, or if he deliberately said it to the things in those mausoleums.
At that time, the two of them didn't feel very tired, but now Ye Tian felt that his arms were sore. Now that the shovel has become weak, Ye Tian saw that the pit in front of him had changed from flat at the beginning to about half a meter deep. Ye Tian felt that the thing was almost here.
He shoveled everywhere with a shovel, and the jar was a very brittle porcelain, but Ye Tian thought that since this thing could help Lan Shouyi, he would simply bury it closer, and the two were basically next to each other, but the sound of the shovel touching the two was completely different.
Ye Tian thought that although he was nominally talking about digging graves, he couldn't do such an immoral thing, threatening was one thing, but it was another thing if he really did it. Ye Tian's pursuit is to try not to destroy the original columbarium without destroying the original urn, and then take things away.
But Ye Tian poked with a shovel for a while and found that there was no columbarium here at all. Ye Tian raised his head and looked at the roots of the tree, and found that his position was correct, so it must be here, but why it was not in the original position is unknown.
Ye Tian frowned while continuing to dig down, when Da Zhen had dug to a depth of about one meter, Ye Tian finally felt that there seemed to be something here, he didn't know what was going on, smelling the smell of dirt, he could vaguely smell the smell of antiques!
This thought surprised Ye Tian, some bronzes did have their own smell, similar to rusty things that emitted a special smell with a rust smell before they went through a series of changes. This Ye Tian himself can ask about it, but that compass has been seen by Ye Tian many times, and he has even played with it in his hand, but there is no taste.
But at this moment, this smell is telling him to go, and the following smell belongs to which compass. Ye Tian shoveled the soil under it more carefully, shoveled for a while, and finally found that the shovel still wanted to touch something hard.
Ye Tian cautiously squatted down and groped in the direction of the shovel, and sure enough, he saw a compass, but there was no columbarium near the compass. When Ye Tian was sure that the columbarium was missing, he stopped looking for it, but fortunately, he found what he wanted.
But the moment Ye Tian picked up this compass from the ground, Ye Tian was shocked by the scene below!
A hundred-year-old tree, its roots in the ground may have reached a height of tens of meters, and the roots of the tree are not as straight as the trunk of a big tree, on the contrary, they are very curved. As they grow, they reach out to their roots in all directions to draw water.
Ye Tian weighed the compass in his hand, rubbed it, and made sure that there was no moisture on it, "It's really strange, how did all this moisture get here?" ”
Ye Tian looked at the compass in his hand, and then looked at the large and intricate tree roots that were originally in the compass position. "Although I have known for a long time that you are the guardian of the Lan family, I didn't expect you to be so caring!"
Ye Tian originally wanted to climb up, but there was a branch of the trunk that was not too smooth, and Ye Tian didn't know why the root of the tree that was so unsmooth could pull a hole in his hand. This opening is not too deep, but there is already blood, and Ye Tian has no choice but to hand over the compass in his hand to the other hand.
But this process will inevitably be stained with a little blood, but Ye Tian didn't pay much attention to it, he looked at the strange-looking root, "I heard that if you sacrifice this tree with blood, you can get shelter, right?" ”
The blood on Ye Tian's hand dripped down his fingers, and Ye Tian let his blood drip on the root of the tree that had just scratched him. Platelets clotted relatively quickly, and Ye Tian waited here for blood flow, but it wasn't too much, just drop by drop on the roots of the tree, until there was no more blood flowing out of the entire wound.
Ye Tian wiped the remaining blood stains on his coat casually, jumped up to the pit more than one meter high with his arms, held a shovel, and kicked the soil with his feet while shoveling, and after a while, this side was almost filled by him.
Ye Tian is a very polite person, he kowtowed and knelt when he came, and bowed respectfully when he left, and said, "Farewell." "I took the shovel and left completely.
Ye Tian thought about going in for a while to see if he could get anything he wanted to know, and when he went back, Lan Lan had not slept, as if he was trying to force himself not to sleep.
The two eyes were red, and tears had begun to flow when she yawned, and Lan Lan wiped her hands for a while. Seeing that Ye Tian was back, he jumped off the chair excitedly, but saw Ye Tian's seemingly injured hand, and quickly grabbed Ye Tian's hand, "Brother Ye Tian, what's wrong with your hand?" ”
Ye Tian rubbed it twice casually, and showed Lan Lan his wound that had almost healed, "I just got scratched by the thorny root, it's okay, don't care too much." ”
Ye Tian held the compass in his pocket tightly, he must not let Lan Lan see this thing, Lan Lan knew about it last time he buried this thing, if he let Lan Lan see it again at this moment, wouldn't he have been found out about digging his father's grave by himself!
In order to let Lan Lan have a good mood, she can't let her find out. "Lan Lan, if you're afraid, you can sleep in Xue Yu's house tonight, let's just rest for a while, I'll set an alarm clock, and we'll go down the mountain in the early morning."
Although Lan Lan was still a little timid, after all, Ye Tian was next door to her, and the feeling in her heart would be a little better. After Ye Tian settled Lan Lan, he returned to the room where he lived and took out the backpack he had brought before. Take the compass out of your pocket and put it in your backpack.
But when he took it out, he found that there was blood sticking on it, Ye Tian found a roll of paper on the window, and after taking it, he began to wipe the blood stains on the compass, but he had no intention of going down at all. It's very strange that Ye Tianjue's one that just dripped up is different from the one that dripped hundreds of years ago!
