Chapter 956: In the Medicine Coffin
Ji Limo looked at Xuan Liangyue and said lightly: "Don't forget the wooden box." None of us knew what was inside the wooden box, and it was all up to the elder to say it alone. He was so treacherous, how could he tell us everything that was written in the wooden box? ”
"Why do you want to go to Houshan at this time, why do you only remember so many opportunities before?" Xuan Liangyue asked.
"He didn't know about the situation of Xuanmen Villa before, but then your appearance gave him a glimmer of hope. When Xi'er unraveled the Gu, I happened to be tricked by him. The only one who can help is you, the owner of Xuanmen Villa. He didn't expect Xi'er to solve the Gu so smoothly, so he would make a desperate bet to give me another Gu, taking advantage of our hurry, he could just come to the back mountain alone. Ji Limo said slowly.
After a brief discussion between the four of them, Xuan Liangyue led the way, and the four of them performed light skills and went to the back mountain.
After the four of them arrived at the back mountain, Xuan Liangyue pointed in one direction and said, "The ancestral tomb of Xuanmen is there." ”
The four of them cautiously entered the ancestral tomb and found no trace of the elder.
"Didn't Elder Zheng come to the back mountain? We didn't see him all the way, but when we came in, there was no sign of him. Could he still disappear into thin air? Xuan Liangyue asked with questions.
Ji Limo shook his head, and after carefully observing the terrain, he spoke: "Elder Zheng must have come to the back mountain, and he must have already come in." Xi'er found out that I was tricked early this morning, so she immediately decided to prepare to unravel my Gu, right? And when I explained the Gu, it was already close to dusk. Now that the moon is already hanging high in the sky, for a whole day, Elder Zheng has climbed to the back mountain even if he climbs, right? If he really wanted to get something from the ancestor of the Xuan family, he would definitely go into the tomb to look for it. As long as he doesn't find what he's looking for, he won't leave the burial chamber. Because he firmly believes that what he wants is here. ”
"How do you see that?" Xuan Liangyue asked curiously.
"On this ground, there are some Gu worms scattered by the elders, and now they are all dead here. This shows that Elder Zheng must have been counterattacked. We must find him at this time, otherwise we will still not be able to control him when he wakes up. Ji Limo said.
"Then let's go to the burial chamber." Xuan Liangyue nodded and said.
The four of them took the night pearl into the ancestral tomb of Xuanmen, and Xuan Liangyue took several of them to the ancestral tomb, knelt in front of the ancestor and kowtowed. Then he pushed open the door of the tomb and led them into the tomb.
Xuan Liangyue lowered her head and found the dead Gu worm, and said coldly: "Wu Zun is right, Elder Zheng really touched it. ”
"Ah Yue, don't be impulsive." Feng Mingye felt that Xuan Liangyue wanted to rush in, so he put his hand on Xuan Liangyue's shoulder.
"Don't worry." Xuan Liangyue said.
The inside of the burial chamber was very bright, the walls were inlaid with night pearls, and soon, they reached the main burial chamber. When they arrived at the main burial chamber, all four of them breathed a sigh of relief. Because, the elder is also lying in the center of the main burial chamber.
But what made people angry was that the burial goods in the tomb were a little messy by the elder, but fortunately he did not open the coffin.
After Murong Xi looked around, he recalled the tomb of the ancestor of the Medicine King Valley. With an idea, she first got under the coffin, and after a careful look, she got out of it.
"Xi'er, what are you looking for?" Xuan Liangyue asked.
"Presumably she wants to see if the mechanism in this tomb is the same as that of the ancestors of the Medicine King Valley." Ji Limo explained.
"Huh? Wu Zun means that the wooden box that the elder arrives in is in the ancestor's ...... Below? Xuan Liangyue asked in surprise.
Xuan Liangyue didn't expect the ancestor to put the wooden box under the coffin, so she looked a little surprised.
"Well, that's what Elder Zheng said." Feng Mingye said.
Murong Xi saw that there was no mechanism under the coffin, so he had to look around. Only then did Murong Xi notice that the walls in the tomb were carved vividly, as if they were alive. Murong Xi approached and took a closer look, the pattern on it was the most obvious leaf. Murong Xi stretched out his hand and pressed it gently, and with a click, the lid of the coffin actually popped open.
The four of them glanced at each other, and Xuan Liangyue said in surprise: "This, what's going on?" ”
"I think although this is the tomb of the ancestors, the ancestors are probably not in this coffin." Murong Xi said in a low voice.
"What about this burial chamber?" Xuan Liangyue asked.
"I'm afraid this is what Elder Zheng wants." Murong Xi said.
Murong Xi approached the coffin vigilantly, Feng Mingye was not at ease, and followed closely behind Murong Xi. And Xuan Liangyue and Ji Limo naturally quickly followed, and the four of them looked into the coffin and actually saw the sleeping elder.
However, when they saw Elder Zheng, the faces of the four people were not very good. Because Elder Zheng was lying in the coffin with his hands folded, his expression was very strange, and he didn't look like he was suddenly asleep. That's right, he looked like he was ready to fall asleep. It's just that why did he choose to lie in a coffin in this burial chamber?
"What does Elder Zheng want to do?" Xuan Liangyue was very puzzled by Elder Zheng's approach.
When he was very young, something happened to the villa, and the whole villa was also in the hands of Xuan Rubing. And what Xuan Rubing hates the most is him, even if he knows the secret of the ancestor, he will not tell him. Later, after rescuing his father, he never mentioned the matter of his ancestors.
Murong Xi shook his head, and Feng Mingye didn't know even more. I saw Ji Limo reach in and touch it, and gently pushed the body of the elder. Ji Limo seemed to have discovered something, and after withdrawing his hand, he spoke: "Elder Zheng wants to use this coffin to raise Gu, he thinks we can't find here. He originally planned to find the contents of the coffin, but who knows, after finding it just now, he found that someone was unraveling the Gu for me. Without doing anything, he hid in the coffin. If we don't find him, he'll be hiding here until the end of the revolt. ”31
"What exactly is in the coffin that he needs?" Xuan Liangyue asked.
"This tomb of the ancestors has a lot of things inside. I think that although your father does not know the secrets of the tomb, he should have listened to the ancestral teachings and did not allow any of his descendants to break into the tomb of his ancestors. When you open the Elder, you will know what is inside the coffin. Feng Mingye said after selling a pass.
Xuan Liangyue was full of curiosity, and after approaching the coffin, she gently pushed the body of the elder.
This push, hurriedly let go. The elder was lying on a wooden box, but there was a black-headed snake coiled on top of the wooden box.
Obviously, Elder Zheng wanted to get the wooden box, but he didn't open it because of the black snake wrapped around the wooden box. Xuan Liangyue was carefully observing the inside of the coffin, but found that the coffin was inlaid with four pearls, and the inner wall of the coffin was also carved with the same pattern as the pattern on the wall of the tomb. What's the mystery about this? Murong Xi also stepped forward and sniffed the inside.
Murong Xi suddenly opened his mouth and said, "It turns out that this is a medicine coffin. ”
Xuan Liangyue was even more surprised when she heard Murong Xi's words, and sniffed it carefully. Sure enough, the coffin was filled with medicinal fragrance.
Elder Zheng wanted to take the wooden box and left the tomb, but found that the coffin was a medicine coffin. Anyway, the wooden box can't be opened for a while because of the black snake, so it's better to sleep in the coffin to recuperate.
That's it, Elder Zheng was worried that someone would find the wooden box, so he lay on the wooden box.
After Murong Xi put on the silk gloves, she asked Ji Limo to push Elder Zheng away, and she picked up the wooden box very quickly.
Murong Xi looked at the black snake on the wooden box and knew that it was impossible to open the wooden box now. So, she put down the wooden box, walked over to the wall, and pressed the leaf again. The lid of the coffin was automatically closed, and Murong Xi clapped his hands and picked up the wooden box.
"Let's go, Ah Yue, I think my uncle must know something about the tomb. Tomorrow morning, we'll ask. Murong Xi said.
"Let's go? Don't you have to arrange for a person to stay here? What if Elder Zheng wakes up and leaves? Feng Mingye said.
"He's not going to wake up. For at least half a month, he will lie motionless inside. Murong Xi said.
So, the four of them soon returned to the bamboo house. Seeing that the four of them had returned safely, Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Feng Mingye: "Master, I searched all over Elder Zheng's courtyard, but I didn't find the person who took care of him at all. ”
Feng Mingye nodded and said, "You guys go and rest first." ”
"It seems that the man has been killed." Murong Xi said.
"If there's anything, let's talk about it tomorrow, go back and rest first. Xi'er, you put the wooden box here with me, you are not suitable to keep the box by your side now. Ji Limo thought for a while and said.
Murong Xi nodded and handed the wooden box to Ji Limo. She knew that placing the box in Ji Limo's place was the best choice, so she didn't hesitate at all.
When Mo'er and Picturesque saw Murong Xi coming back, they said, "Miss, the hot water has been prepared, and some meals have been prepared, are you going to bathe or eat first?" ”
"I'll take a shower and change my clothes first, and then I'll eat when I come out." Murong Xi opened his mouth and said.
Xuan Liangyue naturally went back to his yard, but he didn't sleep well this night because he had something on his mind.
On the contrary, Murong Xi was tired for a day, so he lay down and slept until dawn.
Early the next morning, Xuan Liangyue came to the bamboo house. Feng Mingye saw Xuan Liangyue's dark circles under her eyes, and said, "You didn't seem to have a good rest last night?" ”
Xuan Liangyue nodded and said, "I thought about the ancestors' tomb all night, so there was no way to fall asleep at all. ”
"We'll ask my uncle in a moment, I think my uncle should know some of them." Feng Mingye said.
"Where's Xi'er? Haven't woken up yet? Xuan Liangyue asked.
"I'm done with breakfast, and I'm ready to come out." Feng Mingye said.
"Is Xi'er ready? Okay, let's go meet the former owner. As soon as Ji Limo came out of the house, he said to Feng Mingye.
"It's coming out right away." Feng Mingye said.
As soon as Feng Mingye's words fell, Murong Xi walked out. Xuan Liangyue led the way, and several people went to Xuan Rufeng's courtyard together.
Halfway through, Murong Xi noticed the wooden box in Ji Limo's hand, and asked, "Ji Limo, why did you come out with this wooden box?" ”
"This is something from the Xuanmen, we took it, we must inform the old owner." Ji Limo said.
