Chapter 117: The Next Tomb
"Seeing that some of them are hugging each other, they should be killing each other, just like Bai Qingqing was poisoned before, if they come over, they will strangle me, they should also be poisoned." Mo Shaozhi took a closer look.
"And how did they get poisoned?" The little tanuki said something strange, and then suddenly saw a grave behind her, and she walked straight away.
"Come and see," the little tanuki waved to the people behind him.
The crowd chased after her voice.
In front of a circular stone tomb, there was not a word on the tombstone.
Bai Qingqing said: "It's a wordless monument." After a while, he guessed, "Will it be the master who died in this temple who is buried inside?" β
"No matter who is buried inside, since we have met it, let's come and bow down." After speaking, Mo Shaozhi knelt on a stone slab in front of the tombstone with his legs, and just wanted to kowtow, when there was a sudden boom.
Everyone was stunned as they saw a door open in the round tomb behind them.
"Oh my God, what's going on?" Gao Lan was surprised.
Mo Shaozhi got up and flicked the dirt on his legs: "This tomb is really not simple, and it has a lot of mysteries. β
"Then let's go down and take a look." Bai Qingqing couldn't wait to get in.
Gao Lan thought for a while: This is the plot of the tomb robbery, will there be big zongzi, various mechanisms, and reptiles below...... Do you want to prepare some black donkey hooves and glutinous rice or something to hide the evil spirits?
So he hurriedly said: "Wait, this is a tomb, will there be any mechanism, will we go down so easily will it be too hasty." β
"So what?" As soon as Bai Qingqing's words fell, I saw Gao Lan quickly soar, flew into the tree next to him, grabbed a white bird, and landed in front of them.
To the bird in his hand, he said gently: "I'm sorry, I have to use you to explore the way first." β
Walk to the stone doorway, throw it away, and throw the bird into the tomb.
"Well, that's a good move," Mo Shaozhi praised.
Gao Lan thought to himself: Of course, robbing the tomb when lying in the dormitory is not in vain.
Seeing that the birds had flown around and come out of it, they lit their torches and slowly entered.
Walking down the dark passage, down a few flights of stairs, they came to a circular clearing with bones strewn everywhere.
"It looks like someone has broken in here before," Bai Qingqing looked at their clothes with a branch, "It's a group of people outside." β
The sarcophagus in the middle of the clearing had been opened, and inside lay a corpse with a wooden box in its hand and the lid of it had disappeared.
Mo Shaozhi looked at the portrait on the wall in the tomb: "This seems to tell a story, it should be the experience of the master here." β
The crowd watched with him.
Mo Shaozhi looked around: "In general, he is a warlock, he has been researching the prescription of immortality, and after decades of hard work, he finally succeeded." He survived for more than 300 years, and although he did not die, his body aged day by day, and he became more and more tormented, and later others discovered his secret, and he hid here. He spent his whole life practicing two pills, one of which he ate himself, and the otherβ"
"The other one was supposed to be in the box in his hand, but someone stole it." Bai said lightly.
The little tanuki was surprised: "Oh my God, there is really an elixir in this world." β
"If he took the elixir, why is he dying in this coffin now?" Gao Lan felt strange and looked at the corpse in the sarcophagus.
Mo Shaozhi said slowly: "Maybe it's like you said, a lonely tree." Mourning is greater than the death of the heart, and the death of the heart and the body will not live long. β
"And how did all these people die?" The little tanuki pointed to the bones on the ground.
"I guess, it should be the elixir in this master's body, as the corpse decays, the poisonous substances volatilized together, when they first opened the stone door, the concentration was the highest and the most toxic, and they were attacked when they were defenseless." Mo Shaozhi said, "Now that we are all clear, it is better to leave this place as soon as possible." β
After saying that, everyone left.
"Wow! The air outside is so fresh. The little tanuki breathed heavily, "I didn't dare to breathe in there, and I almost suffocated." β
Mo Shaozhi saw that Gao Lan was still frowning, and asked forward, "Are you okay?" β
Gao Lan raised his head: "It's okay, it's just that I don't know something, since it was the people of the Seventh Prince who found here, you said that the old prince has passed away a long time ago, so who is the other elixir in his hands......"
"I'm also wondering about this question," Bai Qingqing said, "whether someone has benefited from the fisherman's profit." β
"This is a ...... of confusion," Mo Shaozhi said.
As he walked, Gao Lan glanced back at the wordless tablet: Could this elixir really have something to do with the grandmother I saw during the crossing, could it have been eaten by her......
After packing up, several people got on their horses and left.
"Alas, there are all kinds of meat and vegetables along the way, and I don't know what awaits us in front of us, so I'm excited to think about it." Bai said lightly and cheerfully.
"I thought you would say you regretted coming out with me." Gao Lan smiled, "Your little life was almost lost, and you can still say such things, it is worthy of Bai Qingqing." β
"A light cat-like creature like him can't have nine lives, where is it so easy to return to the West." Mo Shaozhi also became more and more humorous.
"Alas, I said Lao Mo, you know me better and better." Bai Qingli rode close to him on a horse, and put one arm on Mo Shaozhi's shoulder.
Mo Shaozhi kicked the horse's back quickly, and the horse ran up, flashing Bai Qingqing: "What old Mo, we don't know who is bigger." β
Mo Shaozhi took out the map and looked at it for a while: "After passing through the canyon in front of us, we will almost reach Du Wanghua's territory." β
"Ah, that means we're not far from wine." Bai Qingqing lay on the horseback and looked forward to it, "I don't know if there are many beautiful girls in the desert, Xiao Lanlan, why don't we go to Xiangge for a walk?" β
"Forget it, you can go by yourself, my son-in-law won't go to that kind of place!" The little raccoon cat said.
"What kind of place?" Bai Qingqing quickly straightened up, "Look at your disdainful tone, it's a good place, there are beautiful wines, good food, and fragrant beauties, it's satisfying to think about it." β
"Forget it, little civet cat, everyone has their own ambitions, that's the gentle country of white lightness," Gao Lan said.
"It's also his hero's mound." Mo Shaozhi raised his eyebrows and interjected.
"What a grave is not a grave, just came out of the grave, bah bah, you two are singing and harmonizing to scold me." Bai Qingqing looked aggrieved and coquettish: "Xiao Lanlan, you are my person." β
"Okay, haha, we are immortal people, where will we need a mound." Gao Lan smiled and comforted.
Mo Shaozhi slowly walked to Gao Lan's side, and said in his ear: "Don't look at Bai Qingqing so casually and improperly on the surface, I can see that he has people hidden in his heart, I'm afraid he is a bitter master." β
After Gao Lan heard this, he immediately showed a gossip face: "Huh? Are you sure? Who can hurt our white boy so deeply? β
