Volume 1 Tomb of the King of Kongshan Chapter 1 Old House
My grandfather is a particularly famous person in this radius of hundreds of miles, just take his skills as an example, his kung fu can be described as superb, miraculous. Legend has it that he was a tomb robber when he was young, and he accumulated a lot of yin virtue, so he fell into trouble in his later years.
It happened in July this year, my grandfather had a serious illness inexplicably, some people say that this is a bad thing to do when he was young to let the ghosts and gods take revenge, but some people think that this is a natural phenomenon, once people are old, their physical functions will decline significantly, and they will be easy to get sick.
Everyone saw that my grandfather was leaving, but they were indifferent, because my grandfather's illness was very rare, and the doctor couldn't figure out what was wrong.
My grandmother knew about my grandfather's condition at this time, so she said to the onlookers, "You guys...... Go out and be clean. With that, he pushed everyone out.
According to our tradition, people should see all their loved ones before they die, so that they can have no worries after death.
At that time, I didn't know about my grandfather's situation, or my second uncle called me, so I hurried home. My second uncle said on the phone: "Come back quickly, I have something to do with you, and besides, don't ask what the matter is, just come back anyway." "I knew my second uncle's temper very well, as long as he didn't want to say something, I asked him too much that he had to beat me to death, so I booked a ticket to Shandong.
I booked a ticket for 1 p.m., looked at the time, and there were about three hours left, so I packed my things and took a taxi to Beijing Capital International Airport.
It was only eleven o'clock when I arrived at the airport, and I had a meal in the airport restaurant, don't you really say, the airport. The rice is really expensive, and a bowl of noodles actually charges me fifty, which is really dark.
I rested there for a while after eating, looked at the time, it was only twelve o'clock, and I was not in a hurry, so I found a place to rest and went to eat chicken.
Soon it was one o'clock, and I got on the plane, put on my blindfold and fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already an hour later, I looked around, and I don't know when a person came next to me, he was wearing a black suit, a blue shirt inside, and a pair of sunglasses, looking very dignified and elegant.
When he was about to reach his destination, the blue shirt suddenly said, "I guess you went to see the old man of Qinshan." After saying that, he pushed his eyes and looked at me.
I frowned and said, "How do you know?" ”
The blue shirt laughed contemptuously and said, "You don't care how I know, anyway, I know you, you may not know me." With that, he handed me a business card, and the plane had already stopped. I took the business card he gave me and went down with my luggage.
I didn't take this business card seriously, and as soon as I got off the plane, I threw the business card with the word "Shangguan" printed on it into the trash.
After I got off the plane, I saw the fierce man who came to pick me up, and he was still like that, with a rough face.
I said hello to the boy and saw my man put a bucket of instant noodles on the car and waved at me.
I got into my car and went back to my hometown.
As soon as I got off the car, I saw that the courtyard of my hometown was full of people, everyone looking left and right, and I barely squeezed into the dean under the leadership of the fierce son.
"Xiaoyu is back!" A person shouted inside, for fear that others would not hear, as soon as I entered the house, I saw dozens of people crowded together, and they all said in unison: "Xiaoyu, hurry, see your grandfather." "What the hell is there to be in such a hurry, you know, my grandfather didn't want to look at me when he was a child, just like he didn't recognize me as a grandson, but it didn't matter, it was my grandfather after all.
I walked into the old man's room under the gaze of everyone, and the dim light and the occasional bell made people feel cold in the back.
My grandmother was standing next to my grandfather, and when she saw me coming, she gave me a seat, and the old man looked at me with straight eyes, waved his hand to my grandmother, and motioned for my grandmother to go out and let me come over.
When my grandmother went out, the old man asked me to sit next to him, I hurriedly persuaded him to get up, and after helping him up, my grandfather dragged his weak body and said to me: "Xiaoyu, do you know why I ignore you and don't look at you." I shook my head, and he continued, "Hehehe, silly boy, that's because I don't want you to worry about me, I've done too many sins in my life, so I ended up like this." My grandfather shook his head.
"Grandpa, you, are you hiding something from me?" I said to my grandfather.
"Yes or what, no, in the end, it's not that people go to the empty building, and now I have to tell you about it."
"Say it, say it." I can't get enough of it.
"Remember, I tell you, you must not tell them, including your grandmother." I nodded hurriedly.
So my grandfather didn't tell me about the history of our Qin family. After talking for an hour, I nodded my head in understanding. But he was very puzzled, because there were many contradictions in what he said, but he felt unbelievable. I couldn't help but sigh, it turns out that so many things have happened to our Qin family.
Then he said a word to me. It dawned on me. I was amazed. Here's a poem:
When the moon is ugly, the divine soldier descends into the world. Tobu Mountain Gate, feel at ease in it.
I quickly jotted down the poem, and my grandfather smiled at me and passed away. Before my grandfather left, my grandfather handed me a purple gold box, and I took the box, I. , smiled at my grandfather and left the room.
These things have completely changed my worldview. My grandfather told me about the history of our family and that poem, and it made me feel that things are not so simple.
I feel like I'm stuck in a huge game. And I'm one of those pawns.
After the funeral for my grandfather, I began to concentrate on which poem to study, and the first two lines were very simple. It is at night when you look at the moon at about 12 to 1 o'clock, and a divine soldier will come.
But the last two sentences are that I have always been unpredictable, Tobu Mountain Gate? Could it be that you are looking at the moon at Mt. Tobu. But we don't have Mt. Tobu here.
So I started asking the village elders.
However, after asking most of the people in the village, there were no clues, and when I saw that there was no hope, I began to figure out by myself, that my grandfather said that Tobu Mountain could not be in the field, and we only have two mountains, Mendong Mountain and Menxi Mountain, because these two mountains are on the east and west sides of Wumen respectively. Wrong! "Mendong" and Wumen, I know! Most likely in Mendong Mountain.
The next morning, I got up early and went up the mountain, and from seven o'clock in the morning until five o'clock in the evening I did not find the mountain gate, and I was exhausted, so I found a stone and sat on it to rest for a while.
I didn't sit idle during the break to recall some details. I started thinking of a place, my grandfather's old house. Since this place doesn't have one, I'll go to that place and check it out.
I ran down the hill and into the old house.
My grandfather's house was a very remote place and extremely difficult to find, but I was different. I lived here for a while, and after I came to the old mansion, I learned that the door of the old mansion was engraved with three words, "Dong Dong Door"
Only then did I realize that I had misheard and was careless.
After years of devastation, this old mansion has become dilapidated.
It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at the old house, and there was still a long time left before the ugly time.
Seeing this old mansion, there is an indescribable taste in my heart. , how to say it, in short, it's a taste of nostalgia, after speaking, tears instantly poured into my heart.
"Who are you?" A man's voice shook me, is there anyone else in this house but me?
Immediately after, a man my age appeared in front of me.
"Qin... Qin Lin? I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why are you here?" He asked.
"My grandfather left me a clue before leaving, and I'll follow it." I say.
"Oh? Is Qin Shan an old thing? You say he's dead? Scold! It's good to be dead. He said with that look of inadequacy.
"What do you mean!" I said angrily that I had the heart to kill him at that time.
We started the Cold War, Qin Lin is a person I don't have much contact with him, I only know that he is a child picked up by my grandfather, and he was taught martial arts by my grandfather since he was a child, I saw that he had such a good relationship with my grandfather, and I also had conflicts with him, but I had no choice but to let him continue to be with my grandfather, Qin Lin suffered a lot by my grandfather's side, no wonder he hated my grandfather so much.
I sat on a bench and he sat on the bed. Soon, it was twelve o'clock in the evening. I don't even know how he waited, I was still very irritable while playing with my phone, he was just sitting there, I really couldn't understand him.
Finally, at twelve o'clock in the morning, I took a deep breath, jerked up, and began to search for it in the house. At night, the bright moonlight was projected into the room, and I searched for about half an hour, but I still couldn't find it. So he said angrily: "Damn! Don't fucking look for it! ”
Just as my patience was running out, a bronze mirror caught my eye.
Because I had the impression that the mirror should have been on the table, and not in a corner, as it is now, I stepped forward and picked it up.
I saw that the bronze mirror was full of dust, and I blew a few breaths into the copper mirror, "cough cough", and the dust choked me a few times.
In the silence of the night, a few rats outside the house looking for food were frightened by my coughing and ran to the darkness.
The dust-free bronze mirror clearly reflects my handsome face.
I looked closely at this somewhat impressive bronze mirror, the edge of the bronze mirror was carved with some animal patterns from ancient times and some seal carvings, I don't know what that means, but I was a little fascinated by it.
I picked up the bronze mirror in my hand and subconsciously placed it in the center of the table, at this moment, I don't know if I was dizzy because of exhaustion, or other reasons, I saw a trace of moonlight outside the window shining on the mirror surface of the bronze mirror, and the moonlight was reflected on the bookshelf by the mirror. I wondered if something was behind the bookshelf, and I came to the bookshelf with a guess.
I got to the bookshelf, put it down, and found a stone door in the back.
My eyes widened, and the stone door was covered with patterns and words. There was a semicircle in the middle, and I immediately thought of the bracelet my grandfather had left me, so I put the bracelet that my grandfather had given me before leaving.
With a bang, I saw that the stone door with the unpainted pattern slowly opened.
I looked inside the open stone door, and behind the stone door was a long staircase, only the first half of the stairs could be seen, and the back steps were hidden in the darkness, giving it an eerie feel.
I looked at the dark place with a little fear, and I didn't rush forward, because Qin Lin's skills are much better than mine, Qin Lin is still behind me, I am very worried about him, it is better to be careful in everything.
I waited for about five minutes, then I took off my bracelet and went down.
