When Xiang Wei heard me say this, his face immediately changed, he looked at Qiu Yan, and when he saw that she hadn't noticed us, he lowered his voice and said viciously:

"What do you mean, He Zimu? If you don't want to go down, no one will force you, what do you want to do at this time! ”

I didn't expect such a reaction from a kind heart, and the temper suddenly came up.

But I turned my head and thought that Qiu Yan had been running around since returning to China, and Xiang Wei probably had suffered a lot, and it could be seen that Xiang Wei was interesting to Qiu Yan, so it was understandable that he could not stand from the perspective of a bystander at this time.

I sighed and patiently persuaded:

"Don't be angry just yet, listen to what I'm talking about. Xiang Wei, if you think about it carefully, the stories Qiu Yan said, what Chiyou, Tusi, are all characters in mythological novels.

Qiu Yan fell into it because it was closely related to her life, you can't follow it, she can't think about it when the time comes, why, not only did you not enlighten her, but also followed her to commit suicide by touching her neck? ”

Xiang Wei lowered his head after hearing this, and it took a long time to raise it, and I saw his eyes full of exhaustion, as if he hadn't slept for a few days.

"Hey, how could I not know what you said, in fact, I didn't believe it at all when I first heard about it, Qiu Yan wanted to find that spearhead, so I accompanied her, just as a tour of the mountains and rivers.

But over the past year, I have seen Uncle Qiu getting older day by day, he is not yet fifty years old, and he looks like he is seventy or eighty in the blink of an eye, can you disbelieve me?

A few months ago, Qiu Yan and I ran all over Xiangxi, and finally found the clue of this Wushan toast.

Hey, I'm really worried, if I can't find it this time, can Uncle Qiu wait for the next clue, and Qiu Yan can't stand this blow again. ”

After hearing this, I immediately said:

"Because of this, didn't you just say it, there is a providence in the dark, if God wants Qiu Yan and his father to live, then this time he may be able to find the spearhead, but what if God doesn't think so?

Qiu Yan's father has lived for most of his life, but Qiu Yan's life has just begun, and the days ahead are still very long, you have to help her continue to walk! ”

Xiang Wei seemed to be understood by me, I saw a smile on his face, and as soon as he opened his mouth to say something, I heard Qiu Yan who was walking in front of us shouting:

"You two are still going, I'm going to go by myself if you don't go!"

Xiang Wei and I glanced at each other, then took a step forward and continued to climb up.

After a while, Xiang Wei's panting voice came from behind him, and he said weakly:

"He Zimu, I don't think you're very old, you should be about the same as Qiu Yan, where did you learn this big truth?"

I didn't look back and smiled:

"No, no, it's not that I have a lot of big truths, it's just that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders!"

······

Again, the three of us arrived at the big bluestone, and before we could catch our breath, Qiu Yan jumped into the cave with an oxygen cylinder on her back.

Returning to the ancient tomb, without the previous sense of fear, it was much easier, Qiu Yan seemed to be in a hurry, walked all the way, and soon reached the breach.

Qiu Yan and I got into the breach, and when we looked up, we were immediately stunned by the scene in front of us.

The granite coffin that had stood in the middle of the chamber was gone, replaced by a pile of decaying wood with stones mixed in.

The area around the burial chamber was not at all as smooth as we had seen before, but the uneven walls of the tomb were built with bricks, and the same was true for the floor, and the whole burial chamber looked like a half-finished product that had been hastily constructed.

Qiu Yan and I looked at each other, and I saw her look of disbelief, and I guess I wasn't much better.

We smiled at each other to show that we understood each other's feelings, and then put on the oxygen masks.

I have to say that the power of the corpse rotting fungus is indeed very powerful, and it actually presents a tomb in Nuoda in front of us in a completely different way, and Qiu Yan and I naturally dare not take it lightly.

After putting on the mask, I looked at the pile of wood again, and I didn't have to guess to know that it was mostly a coffin, but I wasn't sure if the coffin contained Wushan Toast.

Qiu Yan walked slowly to the coffin, and I followed closely.

When I looked closer, I noticed that the coffin was not only mixed with stones, but also some silver ingots and jade.

I quickly crouched down and pulled the pieces apart, and the owner of the coffin was in front of us.

Although this person only has a dry skeleton left, the long braid on the back of his head can still be seen, in addition, his dress, and the funeral items around him can all indicate the era in which this person is located - the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yan's face immediately became ugly, but I became excited.

It was not only this man who proved the existence of the bandits, but also because he was surrounded by gold, silver and jewels, and it seems that the legend that the robbers came here with treasure is true.

I resisted the urge to take those treasures, turned to Qiu Yan and comforted:

"Qiu Yan, don't be too disappointed, as the saying goes, if God closes a door for you, he will definitely open a window for you, if you can't find it this time, let's continue to look for it."

Qiu Yan lowered her head, I couldn't see her expression clearly, I just wanted to persuade her to leave here at this time, thinking that after the two of them left here, only I would know the gold, silver and jewelry here, so when would I come to get it and how much I would take, I would not let it go!

But my wishful thinking was immediately ruined by Qiu Yan, she raised her head suddenly, I saw that her face was not too sad, she shook her head and said:

"That's not right! Wrong! The underwater dragon that covers the sun, the stars and the moon do not go down the ditch, and there is no more shady place in the entire Wuling Mountain Range.

Also, He Zimu, you see, the boulders are pressing on the top, the water is blocking the road, the head is starless, and the body is lightless, isn't this a place an excellent hidden cave? ”

I listened to Qiu Yan say more and more excitedly, but I was always confused, I could hear every word Qiu Yan said, but after those words were connected, I didn't understand a word.

"Qiu Yan, Qiu Yan! Wait, what do you mean by that? I stopped Qiu Yan, who had been talking, and asked.

Qiu Yan seemed to be a little fascinated, and now she was suddenly woken up by me, she looked at me in confusion and asked:

"Am I mistaken? I found it according to what my father taught me, it can't be wrong, it's impossible! ”

Looking at Qiu Yan's helplessness in her eyes, I felt a little distressed, but I couldn't think of anything else to comfort her except to persuade her to think about it.

At this time, I looked at the oxygen mask on her face and suddenly thought of something.

I ignored Qiu Yan anymore, and focused on following the sudden flashing of thoughts in my head, and finally, I figured it out.

"Qiu Yan, you're not wrong!" I shook Qiu Yan's shoulder and said excitedly.

Qiu Yan was probably still in a depressed mood, and she didn't hear what I was saying clearly, she looked at me in surprise and asked:

"What did you say?"

I let go of Qiu Yan's shoulder, then gently tapped the oxygen mask on her face, and said with a smile:

"What is this?"

Qiu Yan didn't react and replied:

"Oxygen masks!"

"Yes, oxygen masks! Qiu Yan, you're not wrong, the mausoleum of Wushan Tusi is here, but we haven't found it yet. ”

Qiu Yan didn't seem to be able to turn a corner, she looked at me suspiciously, and didn't speak.

I hastened to explain:

"Why do we wear oxygen masks, you think? Isn't it because of the corpse rotting fungus? If you think about it again, where did the corpse rot fungus come from? ”

Qiu Yan finally figured it out, the smile on her face gradually appeared, and she suddenly grabbed my arm and said excitedly:

"yes, I didn't think of that! The corpse rotting fungus only parasitizes the body of Tujia Toast! If there is no Tusi Tomb, where will the corpse rot fungus come from? ”

This is Qiu Yan's rare smile so bright in front of me, her originally beautiful face, because this smile has become even better.

But this harmonious atmosphere didn't last long, Qiu Yan may have realized that she was a little out of shape in front of me, and her face turned red as soon as she brushed it, and then she let go of me and turned her body to the side.

Seeing Qiu Yan like this, I was suddenly a little embarrassed.

After a moment of silence, Qiu Yan said to herself:

"So, where is the Tusi Tomb?"

I thought about it for a moment and said:

"Judging from what happened to us, the corpse rot spores here are thicker than outside, which means that we are getting closer and closer to the source of the corpse rot fungus, if I guess correctly, the Tusi Tomb should not be far from here."

"But there has to be a direction, right? Is it underneath? Or is it on the side? Words on the side? Is it left or right? Is it South or North? I don't have manpower now, so how long can we dig with the two of us? Qiu Yan became flustered again.

What Qiu Yan said is a problem, the Tusi Tomb must be around here, but on which side?

I didn't have a clue when I thought about it, so I said:

"Whatever! Let's dig down, it's better to have fewer people than no one, and it's better to do it than to be in a hurry! ”

Just do it, Qiu Yan called Xiang Wei, who was letting off the wind outside, come in, three people, two sapper shovels, and after priing the bricks on the ground, we began to dig down.

The three of them took turns digging for a while, and a large pit was dug out of the ground one meter square, but we still didn't dig any valuable clues.

If there are no clues, there will be no motivation, digging and digging, Xiang Wei will not do it.

"No, we can't dig so blindly, if we get the wrong direction, won't we have to dig forever." Xiang Wei threw the sapper shovel, sat down and said.

I came up with the idea of digging down, and now that Xiang Wei is questioning, I am also a little impatient.

"So what do you say? I listen to you! I said defiantly.

Xiang Wei took a sip of water and said:

"Where do I know what to do? I just don't think it's the way to dig down blindly like this, what if the Tusi tomb isn't down there? ”

Qiu Yan came over at this time, handed me a bottle of water, and said:

"Let's take a break with a sip of saliva first, and then let's go through the clues."

When I was in the army, I was used to taking orders meticulously, so Xiang Wei questioned what I said at this time, and Qiu Yan also hesitated, which made me a little unhappy.
