Chapter 311: The Interpreter
Sima Gu's words only met with Sima Qing's shaking of his head.
Sima Gu stepped forward, looked into Sima Qing's eyes and said, "I'm not here for you, you know?" I understand that I have misunderstood you by my appearance, and that I am not here to save you, but to save myself. ”
Sima Qing naturally didn't understand Sima Gu's words, so he just shook his head vigorously. He didn't understand, he only knew that the person in front of him was good to him, cared about him, and treated him more than his own parents, more than everyone he had met before.
He was reluctant to do so, and he didn't know if anyone would be so good to him in the future.
Seeing this, Sima Gu muttered, "Maybe I hurt you." ”
Sima Gu didn't stop Sima Qing anymore, just raised his feet and continued to walk forward, Sima Qing still followed Sima Gu like a loyal dog.
When he arrived at the town under the mountain, Sima Gu found a hotel to live in, led Sima Qing to a full meal, and took him back to the hotel room, Sima Gu sat on the edge of the bed, took out the stack of rubbed paper given to him by Sima Qing's father from his bag, and put it on the bed and explained: "I went to your house for these things, not for you, understand?" ”
Sima Qing still shook his head, he only had Sima Gu in his eyes, because since he grew up, only Sima Gu was good to him and didn't treat him as a weirdo.
Seeing this, Sima Gu had no choice but to drive Sima Qing away, but Sima Qing didn't leave, so he sat on the spot and kept shaking his head.
Sima Gu wanted to start beating Sima Qing, but he couldn't do it, so he had to let Sima Qing sit there, and in the next few days, no matter what Sima Gu went out to do, Sima Qing followed like a tail.
And in the past few days, Sima Gu has been studying those strange words on the rubbing paper, he can't understand it at all, he has no clue, plus Sima Qing, who is sitting there staring at him all day, which makes Sima Gu's mood extremely irritable, he began to try his best to drive Sima Qing away, and even insulted him with all kinds of vicious words, but even so, Sima Qing still didn't move, just didn't leave.
Helpless, Sima Gu had to pick up a piece of rubbing paper and say to Sima Qing: "Sima Qing, I have something very important to do, and you don't understand anything, you can't do anything, follow me and delay me, you don't want to see me delayed by you, right?" ”
Sima Qing nodded silently, as if he understood.
Sima Gu said: "But I need your help now, I need you to go back and ask your father, how to interpret the text above, as long as you ask the answer, you can follow me in the future." ”
Sima Qing's thinking was relatively simple, and he didn't think that this was the easiest way for Sima Qing to get rid of him, as long as he went home, Sima Gu would disappear without a trace.
Sima Qing went home, and Sima Gu immediately packed up his things and left as fast as he could.
After Sima Qing returned home, he heard from his mother that his father had gone to guard the cave.
What is Cave Guarding? In Sima Qing's family rules, if someone makes a big mistake, they will go to the cave where the relics of the ancestors are stored, which is similar to the clothed mound in the past, which is equivalent to confessing their sins to the ancestors during the cave guarding, and the time can be as long as a month.
Sima Qing immediately went deep into the mountains, found his father in the cave, and asked him how to interpret the words.
But Sima Qing's way of asking is very strange, what he is asking means that if the method of interpretation is told to those who do not understand it in simple language, instead of asking him to find a way to interpret it, as Sima Gu asked in his lie.
When Sima Qing's father heard this, he felt very strange, and asked, "I don't understand what you mean?" ”
It was only then that Sima Qing discovered that the words that his father had rubbed came from this cave, and there were countless tombstones in the cave, and the back of the tombstones was those words.
Sima Qing stood in front of a tombstone, explaining the words on it one by one, and then turned his head and asked his father, how to explain it to Sima Gu, how did he know these words?
Sima Qing's father was stunned, because only one person in each generation will be qualified to learn how to interpret the text behind the tombstone, he is the interpreter of the previous generation, and this generation should have been his son Sima Qing's turn, but because Sima Qing is not a normal person, he didn't dare to entrust him with a heavy responsibility, but he didn't expect Sima Qing to be able to interpret?
Sima Qing's father stepped forward and hugged Sima Qing and asked, "How did you learn it?" Tell me! How did you learn it? ”
Sima Qing was frightened by his father, he just shook his head vigorously, he didn't know, he didn't know at all, because he would interpret those strange words when he saw them for the first time.
Sima Qing's father sat slumped on the ground and muttered, "I've escaped for so many years, and I haven't been able to hide?" ”
Sima Qing didn't understand what his father was talking about, so he just asked vigorously how to tell Sima Gu the solution?
After Sima Qing's father asked what was going on, he calmly told his son that Sima Gu had thought of a way to separate him, but he also felt that this was providence, and Sima Gu would definitely regret it if he knew that Sima Qing would have interpreted that kind of text.
After Sima Qing knew the truth, he ran out of the mountain like crazy, and went to the town outside the mountain to find Sima Gu, and when he ran there, the person was about to faint, but he insisted on getting to the room, and knocked on the door to find that there were other travelers living in the house.
Sima Qing cried, crying hoarsely in the hotel, he felt that he was abandoned, like garbage discarded at will.
Wei Chiran looked at Sima Qing who was expressionless next to him, he didn't understand why Sima Qing was that kind of person? Was it because of his youthful experience, lack of love, or was he born with some kind of mental illness?
Xie Meng looked at Wei Chiran and said: "His mind is chaotic, if you are like me, you can read the thoughts in his head, you will find that if there is no one to command him and give him orders, all he will do is live, nothing more." ”
Hou Wan looked at Sima Qing and had an indescribable feeling, feeling that Sima Qing was like a dog, and a stray dog, who would not do anything else except survive, eat and drink.
After Sima Gu disappeared, Sima Qing set a goal for himself, that is, to find Sima Gu and find the person who was the best for him in the world. He didn't even go home to ask his father where Sima Gu came from, but searched aimlessly.
After looking for a full year, Sima Gu did not find it, in the process, because of the wandering relationship, his body became worse and worse, and he became thinner and thinner, like a zombie, often wandering the streets late at night, frightening passers-by who returned late, and even attracting the police.
After being rescued several times by the local civil affairs department, he quietly left several times to complete his goal.
But Sima Qing also became more and more tired and desperate, and finally he walked to a fortune-telling stall on the side of the street, trying to ask the fortune teller to tell him Sima Gu's whereabouts.
But how would a fortune teller know? Sima Qing's appearance alone scared him enough, and he just said perfunctorily: "Did he say that wherever he wants to go, you will go to that place to find him." ”
Of course, Sima Gu wouldn't tell Sima Qing, but Sima Qing got clues and hints about this matter. Although Sima Gu didn't say where he was going, his goal was to decipher those strange words, and there was a place hidden in those words, which had already been interpreted by Sima Qing, that is, Poyin Mountain in Xiangxi.
Sima Qing began to check the map and ask others, but he couldn't find the place where there was Poyin Mountain in Xiangxi anyway, so he had no choice but to return home again to seek his father's help.
Sima Qing, who returned home, was very different from a year and a half ago, and even his mother couldn't recognize him, but after he came back, he just took a sip of water and couldn't wait to ask his father's whereabouts.
His mother told him the shocking news that just five days before he returned, Sima Gu reappeared, and he came back to find his father, who had left with him and had not returned.
Sima Qing suddenly thought of something, and at that time his mind seemed to be clear, he rushed into the deep mountains in one go, found the cave, and found the body of his father and Sima Gu in the cave.
Sima Gu sat there covering his face and crying, and next to him was the body of Sima Qing's father, whose body did not have any external injuries, but it was bleeding from the seven orifices, his lips were black, and his face also appeared a strange color, which was obviously caused by poisoning.
Sima Gu was ashamed to tell Sima Qing that he wanted to force Sima Qing's father to decipher the text, but he didn't expect Sima Qing's father to commit suicide by taking poison because of this, and he didn't say anything until he died.
His father's death did not touch Sima Qing at all, after all, he grew so big, the communication with his father could be counted, and even in his father's eyes, this son was not as valuable as his own herbs, so Sima Qing did not feel the slightest sadness.
Even so, Sima Qing buried his father with the help of Sima Gu, and after worshipping, Sima Qing asked in a low voice: "Where is Poyin Mountain in Xiangxi?" ”
Sima Gu asked strangely, "Why do you want to ask Poyin Mountain?" ”
At this moment, Sima Qing revealed the fact that he could decipher the text, which surprised Sima Gu, and with a half-believing attitude, he handed the rubbed papers to Sima Qing one by one, and Sima Qing also interpreted them one by one.
Sima Gu finally smiled, it was the first time he had laughed in many years, and he smiled so happily that he knew that he had finally found it.
Why did Sima Gu interpret those words? What is recorded in the text? What is Poyin Mountain? These questions were answered one by one on the way to Xiangxi led Sima Qing by Sima Gu, which was one of the biggest secrets hidden by the sewing of thousands of corpses, that is, the real corpse control technique.
Since the existence of the Sima family, no one has been able to control the corpse, which is simply incredible for the sewing of a thousand corpses. Although Sima Gu found out from various classics that hundreds of years ago there was indeed a corpse control technique, but these corpses did not seem to have any connection with the current Sima family.
After all, it is not orthodox at all for the Sima family to sew a thousand corpses, and this is also the conclusion that Sima Gu gradually came to in the process of investigating corpse control techniques for many years.
After coming to a conclusion, Sima Gu began to investigate further in this direction, and finally discovered that there was another batch of sewing corpses before the Sima family, and this batch of sewing thousand corpses was called pure blood.
