Volume 2: Nine Turns of the Underworld Chapter 32: Night Talk

But no matter which path we choose, we should not move at the moment, the injured and the disabled, for the time being, this place is safe, just enough for us to recuperate for a while.

The cave was not spacious, people could barely lie down, and the six of us seemed a little crowded, but we could only settle down.

Miss Luo probably felt that it was inconvenient to squeeze in a bunch with a group of our big men, so she took the initiative to ask Yingxian to keep vigil, I was already exhausted, and I didn't know how they arranged it, so I fell asleep in a daze on the side.

I don't know how long I slept this time, until now I don't know if it's day or night, the phone has long been out of power and automatically turned off, and I don't have the habit of bringing a watch, the last meal or in the feng shui mirror hall ate some dry food, and now I wake up hungry. I checked the marijuana situation, but fortunately it didn't burn so much, I called him a few words, but there was still no response, I had to feed him some water and let him continue to sleep.

Seeing that I woke up, Liu Sanyan yawned and motioned for me to change his eyes for a while, and I didn't know who I crossed in the dark, so I climbed to the entrance of the cave and changed shifts with Liu Sanyan.

Everyone was tired enough to choke on this toss, and they all slept like dead pigs, and I leaned on the edge of the cave to think left and right, and ate some dry food, but I couldn't figure it out.

The purpose of our coming here is the flower map on the other side, but what Luo Jin meant before seemed that this flower map on the other side was not very important to Miss Luo's father, but more like asking us to involve some people and help them buy time.

Now it seems that Lao Li Tou is involved, Luo Jin said that Lao Li Tou is from the Thief Door Council, is he fighting with the thief door?

Doesn't it mean that the thief is a retail alliance? Like the Luo family, the Wu family probably also has a thief council, which is a bit contradictory.

The wet clothes on my body were not comfortable, so I couldn't help but sneeze twice, maybe it woke up Miss Luo, she sat up and asked, "Got a cold?" ”

"Probably not, woke you up?" I replied.

Miss Luo said, "I've been awake for a while, what are you thinking?" ”

I sighed and said, "I don't know where Xiaomu is now?" How's it going? ”

Miss Luo laughed: "You don't have to worry about anyone, you don't have to worry about him, if you have the energy, worry more about yourself." ”

Also, I am not at the same level as him at all, just like the unenlightened Sun Monkey compared to Rulai, like a beggar who the emperor's heart.

"What about you?" I changed the subject.

"Me?" Miss Luo thought for a while: "I want to take a hot bath and eat beef hot pot, and it would be more perfect to have a bowl of screw powder." ”

This answer made me stunned, her brain circuit is too weird, whether she can live is still unknown, she actually thinks about how to enjoy it, are women so heartless?

"You know what? In fact, I started to go to the ground at the age of eleven, and for the first time I was very scared, because in order to exercise the courage of our generation, every child would be locked up in an ancient tomb alone, and the dead would stay for a day and a night before they were released, and they had to bring out a bright vessel from the coffin, and if they came out empty-handed, then they could not touch the line of tomb robbing, and a family like me, if they did not enter this circle, they were quite expelled. Miss Luo said lightly: "The ancient tomb is very dangerous, my brother died in it a few years ago, he died to save me, do you know what he said to me before he died?" ”

I shook my head, and though she said it lightly, I felt some sympathy, or perhaps distress.

A little girl is locked alone in an ancient tomb, how can she endure the torment of that day and night? Not to mention children, I have been separated from them in the tomb several times, and it almost made me collapse for a little time, are these so-called big families really so cold for the sake of profit?

I don't know if I'm used to being poor or if I really have a plain heart, money is really not so tempting to me, if I don't care about family affection for money, I may not be able to do it.

Maybe this has something to do with my previous job, when I was repairing the bank's machine, what scene have I never seen? I've also been to the vault to repair the money press and the money clearing machine, the piles of cash, the pieces of gold bars and gold bricks have been seen, which makes me a little nervous numb, maybe I know that it doesn't belong to me, or it's not weird, anyway, I have a certain immunity to the temptation of money.

Even if Miss Luo transferred a large amount of money to me some time ago, I didn't feel much excitement in my heart, how to say it, it's like you are full of coarse tea and light rice, and you are served a plate of delicacies from the mountains and seas, you may want to eat, but you can't eat much, you can't eat yourself in order to eat this good dish, right?

Miss Luo said leisurely: "Actually, I have long wanted to quit this industry, I have saved some money over the years and enough for me to squander my life, find a man I like, go to a quiet seaside, live a plain life, if there is another man and a woman, it would be better, I take the child at home, the man goes out to work, every night I cook a meal with the child and wait for him to come home, and then the family walks on the beach, stepping on the beach and listening to the waves, the moon rises in the sky, and we carry our children home together." ”

She seemed to be immersed in the illusion of happiness, and spoke in a thin voice, as if she were talking to herself.

"But my brother said that some people's fate is arranged by God, and there is a certain number in the underworld, just like a flower will definitely wither when it blooms, and the sun will definitely set when it rises, and our Luo family is too, it is difficult to quit when you enter this industry, like the Jiao family in Guangdong and the Qi family in Shandong, none of them have a good end, because someone will not let you retreat, or this world will not let you retreat. Just like your ancestors, the Yang family, who was extremely strong for a while, can you get out of the way? Miss Luo's words shook my heart.

But I forced myself to be calm, I didn't know if she really wanted to say something to me, or if she wanted to talk to me, I really didn't trust her anymore.

"Do you know much about my grandfather?" I asked tentatively.

Miss Luo said: "I don't know much, your grandfather's name was Yang Zhuo before he retired, he was working for a warlord, his reputation in this industry is very big, and both the north and the south are recognized as the first person in this industry of that generation, and there is no fight that he can't do." The Tianguan seal of your Yang family is in my Luo family, do you know why he put it in the Luo family? ”

I shook my head.

Miss Luo pressed the hair around her ears and said: "This is his step-by-step hand, he also knows that it is difficult to completely quit this business, the Luo family is a buffer section he chooses, if the descendants of the Yang family are found, according to the agreement of the year, the Luo family will do its best to protect the descendants of the Yang family, at least the descendants of the contemporary Yang family, that is, you." ”

"Although my Luo family can't retreat if they want to, they still have some confidence in protecting you in this struggle. Another reason is that Yang Zhuo had a relationship with my aunt and grandmother back then, but I don't know what they went through, and in the end, Yang Zhuo was with the warlord's sister, and my aunt and grandmother didn't dig it out after they knew, and they didn't leave the Luo family for seven years. Later, I heard that Yang Zhuo was missing, and my aunt and grandmother went crazy to look for him, looking for him for more than ten years, and finally ended up depressed and never married, how could there be such a ruthless man in this world? ”

Miss Luo said that she was crying, and in the dim light of the cold light stick, she looked at me with gritted teeth, as if I was the one who gave up all the time, what does this have to do with me, I was not even a tadpole at that time.

I coughed awkwardly and said, "Don't you all say that you have retired, maybe my grandfather doesn't know that your aunt and grandmother are looking for him everywhere." ”

"Fart!" Miss Luo was emotionally excited, and said: "After I went back to Chongling, I checked, thirty-six years ago, a team of people secretly went to the Chongling area, and there were people from my Luo family who accompanied them, my grandfather said, it was the person Yang Zhuo came to find, and I also saw the portrait of Yang Zhuo in the relics of my aunt and grandmother in my Luo family's old house, which was the person lying in the coffin. ”

I chuckled in my heart, but I don't think it's pointless to quarrel about this kind of thing, although Yang Zhuo is my grandfather, but I haven't seen him at all, and I didn't even know that there was such a person before, even if he is a scumbag, it doesn't matter with me, don't suddenly come out and say that my grandmother is her aunt and grandmother, this is bloody, then I'm not related to the Luo family?

However, there was a message revealed in her words, why did Yang Zhuo suddenly jump out after so many years of hiding? Is there a sense of presence? It's not like that.

And Miss Luo reminded many times that the tomb robber family can't quit even if they want to quit this circle, and this tomb robber is still forced? Who forced you to fight all the time?

And when I came into contact with these tombs, there were black hands manipulating behind them, and the appearance of Lao Li and a few people was obviously not coming for the Ming Weapon, that is, someone was actually looking for something, or some kind of answer.

Combined with what Yang Jin said in the bronze coffin of the third generation, I came to the conclusion that someone knew the secret of the Five Elements Divine Bead and wanted to obtain immortality through it.

I know that since ancient times, there have been people seeking eternal life, those who are truly wealthy, those who can easily obtain any worldly material things, their desires will become more and more, as Buddhism said, seeing through the red dust, is just a change in mood, the pursuit of worldly things is light, but the desire for those ethereal things is even more.

So there were people who explored the universe, gods and ghosts, immortality, and so on, and thus gave birth to all kinds of theology, beliefs, religions, and so on.

In short, none of these people are ordinary people, especially those who pursue immortality.

In the early years, he believed in cultivation and worshiped this god and that immortal, and after countless people failed to seal it, they changed their ways to alchemy, and all kinds of messy things were eaten and eaten, thinking that they would be able to live forever, but as a result, countless people were killed, and even the emperor ate several to death.

In modern times, medicine has developed, and people have succeeded in researching what kind of drug regeneration and so on, and changing hearts and kidneys has been successful, which is also a way to pursue immortality. Maybe in a few hundred years, we will see that we are no different from those who make alchemists.

Although the world is calling for not believing in feudal superstitions, but on all sides, temples and Taoist temples are not less built, and they want to be afraid of being ridiculed, which is a bit of a cover-up and stealing the bell.

But no matter what, there are still people who believe it, and the higher the status, the more obsessed people are.
