Section 11 Secret Rooms
Su Xiaonuan's legs were almost numb. She didn't know how long she had been in a kneeling position, but she felt like she had become a sculpture. Grief and despair wrapped her tightly like plastic wrap, making it impossible for her to breathe.
It was late at night, and the whole hall was cold. The charcoal pot in front of him had been extinguished, emitting a faint white smoke. Su Xiaonuan had a dream.
She saw herself standing in a large stone room, white clouds of smoke lingering on either side. Someone was crying and shouting. She wanted to move forward but couldn't take a step, so she could only watch the white smoke in front of her get thicker and thicker. Little by little, there was light shining through the depths of the white smoke, like a pathfinder lamp in the mist. The scene in front of me shook brightly. Finally, the light grew brighter and brighter, and finally, all the white fog was blown away by the light.
Stopping in front is a sarcophagus in which lies a woman in period costume. Su Xiaonuan's legs suddenly moved, and she walked towards the sarcophagus step by step uncontrollably. The cold air in the sarcophagus seeped into Su Xiaonuan's skin little by little. Su Xiaonuan was scared, but her body involuntarily moved in front of the sarcophagus.
Syllable! The bottom of the sarcophagus suddenly flashed, and the woman in ancient costume suddenly disappeared. A black hole was revealed in the coffin.
I don't know where the courage came from, Su Xiaonuan stretched out her head and looked inside. Suddenly, someone outside pushed her, and her body was planted in the coffin. Then, plunged into endless darkness. I don't know how long it took, Su Xiaonuan woke up. She saw a kind face, it was Grandpa. He was looking at Su Xiaonuan with a smile.
Grandpa, grandpa. Su Xiaonuan screamed and hugged her grandfather with tears in her eyes.
"Xiao Nuan." Su Zhengde patted Su Xiaonuan's head and said softly.
"Grandpa, you're not dead, are you? Don't you leave Xiao Nuan, okay? Su Xiaonuan said, tears falling.
Su Zhengde didn't speak, just looked at her with pity, with great sadness in his eyes. Su Xiaonuan wiped her tears and raised her head, but her grandfather was gone.
She was stunned, stood up and shouted, "Grandpa, grandpa." "It's a strange place, the ground is paved with white jade, and the side is piled with gold and silver. However, Su Xiaonuan only wanted to see his grandfather. Stumbling over to a bronze mirror, Su Xiaonuan stopped. She saw her grandfather looking at her in the mirror. In front of the mirror are engraved three neat small characters in seal body, reincarnation mirror. Su Xiaonuan saw his grandfather standing in the mirror and looking at him with a smile, and then the figure became farther and farther away, fading more and more, and finally disappeared.
As soon as the picture turned in the mirror, the sarcophagus that Su Xiaonuan saw at the beginning appeared in front of him. An old man walked in with a spirit card, and he pressed it inside the sarcophagus. There were two people with blood all over their bodies lying next to them, and there were two people lying on the ground, one was an old man with gray hair, and the other was a little familiar, as if it was Uncle Bao.
Su Xiaonuan became more and more strange. She stared intently at the picture in the bronze mirror. The old man picked up Uncle Bao and walked out, and a white phoenix flew out of the sarcophagus, hovering over the sarcophagus in surprise. Eventually, the phoenix fell to the ground and transformed into a baby, the birthmark of a nine-headed bird in her heart.
Seeing this, Su Xiaonuan was like being struck by lightning, she sat on the ground with her buttocks, could the baby transformed by the phoenix be herself? The image in the bronze mirror became a little blurry, and it seemed that water had overflowed the mirror. Su Xiaonuan stretched out his hand and wiped it, but the bronze mirror suddenly cracked.
There was a cold silence around, and there was a slight dripping sound in my ears. Su Xiaonuan stood up and groped her way forward. The road was a little rugged and full of potholes, and Su Xiaonuan walked to the end of the road with one shallow foot.
At the end of the road was a stone door, Su Xiaonuan gently pushed, and the door opened. There was a faint light coming out of it, and Su Xiaonuan saw a person sitting inside, with his back to him.
The stone door seems to be a secret room, filled with white jade. Some are whole pieces of large white jade, and some are some handicrafts that have been carved in half. The person with his back to her was concentrating on carving a piece of jade in his hand, and he didn't seem to be aware of Su Xiaonuan's arrival.
Su Xiaonuan walked over softly. Under the white wax oil lamp, the appearance of that person was clearly reflected in Su Xiaonuan's pupils. It was an old man with gray hair and eyebrows, holding a file in his left hand, gently picking at the jade he was holding in his right hand.
"Uncle, here, what kind of place is this!" Su Xiaonuan asked softly. The old man did not move, as if he had not heard.
Su Xiaonuan was stunned, and just wanted to ask again. The old man suddenly stood up and bumped into Su Xiaonuan. Su Xiaonuan screamed, but was surprised to see that the old man actually passed through his body. What's going on? Are you still dreaming? Su Xiaonuan had a headache, she wanted to pinch herself, but her two hands couldn't use her strength.
The old man sat down at the table again, took up a wolf pen, and wrote on the paper as he spoke:
"I know that my fate has ended, and I will carve my life's spiritual power on these two pieces of jade. One is the eye, and the other is the nine phoenixes. I think my jade home was originally the home of the princess of Lanling guarding the mausoleum, but now the son of heaven is mediocre, I have to use the family heirloom method to hide the tomb of the princess - the blessed land of Yuling underground, in order to fulfill my family's duty. May the princess be in the spirit of heaven and forgive my sins. ”
When the old man had finished, he put the pen aside and revisited it from beginning to end. Then, he put the written paper in a small tin box next to it.
At this time, a loud noise came from Su Xiaonuan's ears, which made her ears dizzy. The eyes gradually became confused again.
When my ears gradually recovered, I heard a soft call in my ears. Su Xiaonuan slowly opened her eyes, and she saw Qin Feng looking at her anxiously.
"Wake up, she's awake." Someone next to him shouted. Su Xiaonuan felt a little familiar, she wanted to turn her head to take a look, but there was a pain on her body, she tilted her head, and fainted again.
He Er checked her pulse and let out a long sigh of relief.
"How? She's okay! Qin Feng looked at He Er and asked.
"She's fine. It's just that the mind is overly haggard, and it's okay to take a break. He Er nodded and said.
Qin Feng looked at Su Xiaonuan's pale face, and felt a little sad in his heart. Su Xiaonuan's only grandfather left her suddenly, and the sadness in her heart can be imagined. This reminded Qin Feng of the situation when his father left. That kind of grief-stricken feeling, that kind of unspeakable sadness, only those who have experienced it will understand.
Thinking of his father, Qin Feng thought of Wang Tie again. In the woods just now, Wang Tie was about to tell his father who killed him, but he was assassinated. Thinking of this, a thought suddenly rushed into Qin Feng's mind. Could it be that the murderer of his father is also in Yuling Village? Could it be because he heard Wang Tie's words and was afraid that Wang Tie would reveal his identity, so he killed people.
There was a knock on the door, and Director Liao and Huzi walked in.
"How? Did you find Jack? Lin Xin hurriedly asked.
Director Liao shook his head and did not speak.
"If only Ah Fu was here." Huzi looked ahead with red eyes, he hadn't come out of the fact that Ah Fu had been killed.
"Grandpa, grandpa, don't leave me. Ah......h Qin Feng helped her and was just about to help her wipe the sweat on her forehead, but the hand holding the towel loosened like an electric shock.
Seeing this scene, He Er hurriedly stretched out his hand to check Su Xiaonuan's pulse. The cold sweat on Su Xiaonuan's forehead became more and more, and drop by drop ran down his cheeks.
"How so? What's wrong with her, what's wrong with her? Lin Xin asked anxiously on the side.
He Er didn't speak, but just pressed Su Xiaonuan's arm hard to prevent her from moving violently. A strong smell of burnt paste came from Su Xiaonuan's body. Finally, Su Xiaonuan calmed down, and her breathing was as smooth as usual. He Er let go of his hand, and Qin Feng saw that his hands were all hot bubbles.
"What's going on?" Qin Feng was stunned.
He Er hesitated for a few seconds and said slowly: "We must send her to the Yuling Blessed Land now, otherwise, this girl's life will not be guaranteed." ”
"What do you mean by that? Xiao Nuan, what's wrong with her? Lin Xin was stunned.
It's come to this point, and I'm not going to hide it from you. Xiao Nuan, this girl was picked up by Su Ye from the Yuling blessed land, and her body was covered with the miasma of the Yuling blessed land. Regarding her life experience, there is no third person in Yuling Village except for Su Ye and me. Back then, after Su Ye picked her up from the Yuling blessed land, she was the same. This disease is called "jade resentment", and I also saw and introduced it in the medical book left by my father.
"Jade resentment" originally refers to the cold air on the jade. Therefore, the carved jade craftsman will generally use a unique way to remove the cold from the jade. Xiao Nuan, this girl, actually has this kind of disease that should belong to jade. It's incredible!
"Then let's go to the Yuling Blessed Land." Qin Feng said in a deep voice.
