Chapter Sixty-Eight: Another Plan
Hu Dabao said that there is no need to send someone to find his grandfather together, after all, if there are many people, it should be more efficient to find it. Grandpa smiled, shook his head and said, my old friend is not an ordinary person, and the place he goes to is naturally not an ordinary place.
The next day, after the grandfather relieved Hu Dabao's wife of the abnormal symptoms on his face, he packed up and left Hu's house. Hu Dabao personally sent him to the entrance of Qingyun Town along the way, and sent several servants, drivers, and carriages to his grandfather. Before arriving at the destination, Hu Dabao instructed these people to take care of their grandfather as much as possible.
When I saw this, I was actually puzzled for a moment, and even had a bad premonition. Because if I'm not mistaken, my grandfather should have died in this year. That is, it is likely that this time, something happened to Grandpa.
Sure enough, time passed after his grandfather left, and more than three months later, Hu Dabao got the news - saying that the body of an old man was found in a deep mountain and old forest, and he was holding a jade pendant engraved with the seal of the Hu family.
After Hu Dabao received the news, he rushed over as soon as possible, and the old man who passed away was none other than my grandfather. When I saw my grandfather's body, I had mixed feelings.
I was not able to attend my grandfather's funeral because my father and I were out of town at this time, and we were not able to receive the news of my grandfather's death in the first place. But now I regret even more that the real cause of Grandpa's death did not appear in the prophetic dream.
Foreseeing what is happening in the dream is not controlled by me, but by the memories of the deceased. I want to know why my grandfather died, and now the prophetic dream can't reveal the truth for me.
In short, after his grandfather died, Hu Dabao's plan to resurrect Hu Hui was directly in the soup, and he had been depressed for a long time. After his grandfather left, Hu Dabao finally listened to his grandfather's advice and did not divorce his wife.
Hu Dabao's wife seems to have really changed her mind, changed her appearance, and served Hu Dabao as a wife and as a virtuous helper. Hu Dabao was originally a person who missed his old love, with his grandfather's advice and his wife's obvious changes, Hu Dabao finally decided not to care anymore.
Seeing Hu Dabao getting haggard day by day, with a sad face, his wife also made an idea with Hu Dabao, she said, Master, since the old gentleman has passed away, should we try to find other underground burial masters or mages? It's not a way to continue to consume like this.
Hu Dabao was stunned for a moment after hearing this idea, and then slapped his head fiercely and shouted yes! Why didn't I think of this solution! The old gentleman also said that he is not the only one who can save Xiaohui! There must be other great people in that industry!
Hu Dabao's wife told him that his parents were old superstitions, obviously intellectuals but deeply influenced by his grandparents, and knew this very well, and if he nodded, he would go back and ask his parents.
Of course, Hu Dabao asked his wife to hurry up to find out the information, and it was best to find all the capable people, after all, it was too time-consuming and inefficient to find them one by one. After getting Hu Dabao's affirmation, his wife also immediately went back to her hometown, and when she came back, she brought several people with different clothes.
Seeing that, the Taoist priests of the Taoist temple, the monks of the temple, the wandering monks, the exorcists, and the witches were almost all among them. Hu Dabao gave them a warm reception and explained the current situation to them in detail.
And at the beginning, the demon slayers who seemed to be confident one by one, after hearing that the person who held the big wedding on the day of the earth's eyes was a twin soul child, all of them changed their faces greatly, and they looked very embarrassed.
Obviously, just by looking at their faces, they know that these people are unreliable. Hu Dabao was very discouraged, and finally held the idea of being a dead horse and a live horse doctor, so they all worked hard, but all of them were in vain and did not have any effect.
And one of the witches told Hu Dabao before leaving that this kind of thing may really only be done by underground burial masters, and that this kind of thing is their specialty, but it is not their business to attract souls and cross souls.
So Hu Dabao thought about it and came directly to our house - seeing this, I suddenly remembered that it was indeed in the past, a fat little old man came to our house.
It's just that I met Hu Dabao somewhere at that time, because I was still a teenager, and I wasn't interested in the richest man in Qingyun Town at all - at that time, I liked to ride a bicycle and run around with my friends.
Hu Dabao was very sincere when he talked to his father, saying if he could find a way to save his daughter. His father is also an honest man, and he told Hu Dabao that his grandfather had told him before that he could no longer become a ground burial master, otherwise his descendants would be cursed.
But when his father saw Hu Dabao's discouraged appearance, he still introduced him to a ground burial master. If you really can't do it, you can try to find this person, but don't say that it was introduced by our Zhang family.
Hu Dabao asked why, and his father said with a wry smile that the relationship between the underground burial master family was not very good before, because of the different factions, and our Zhang family was even more so.
And the father said that the reason why he knew the place of residence of the underground burial master was because his grandfather had a good relationship with the underground burial master himself, and they were friends.
And on our Zhang family's side, although we don't plan to continue to inherit the ancestral business because of the family taboo, the other party shouldn't be like this. Hu Dabao only understood when he heard this, and asked, which means that the older generation of underground burial masters has also passed away?
My father said yes, and he left a little earlier than my father. So if you go, just say that you heard rumors, and then try to ask his descendants to see, in short, don't give our Zhang family a confession, otherwise something big will happen.
After Hu Dabao got the news, he immediately took someone to visit it himself. This burial master family is the Liu family, who lives in Panlong Town, which is much larger than Qingyun Town and close to the capital. I have heard my father talk to me about the Liu family before.
Although their family is also a family of underground burial masters, it seems that in terms of skills, they are far inferior to our Zhang family. To use an analogy, it's similar to the relationship between the direct and the collateral.
In fact, there are many schools of ground burial techniques of ground burial masters, and almost all demon slayer professions are like this. Our Zhang family is in the line of the underground burial master because it has a funeral scripture, which is a direct line, and this Liu family is a proper collateral lineage.
"Xiaojun, don't look at the taboo in our family now, so it will decline, if there is no such unfortunate thing, our Zhang family's achievements will not be low now. That Liu family is a fart, he doesn't even know how to write the funeral words of the funeral scriptures, cut ......"
I remember that when my father used to drink, when he talked about my grandfather being a burial master, he would always talk to a god like me, and I didn't want to listen to it when I was young, and I always felt like a resentful woman.
However, when I saw that Hu Dabao found the burial master of the Liu family, I also realized that although what my father said at that time was a little exaggerated, the underground burial master of the Liu family couldn't even write the words of the burial scripture, which was too quintessential.
The earth burial technique is a spell that originated from the Fuxi gossip that was born with the chaos of the world when the primeval world was opened. God was afraid of revealing the secret of heaven, so he hid the gossip in the sixteen trigrams, and only the gossip was handed down.
And the successors of any of these gossip lines now have a lot of achievements. The ground burial technique of our underground burial master also belongs to one of them.
However, I listened to Hu Dabao go to Liu's house and talk to the Liu family's underground burial master, but found that their family's so-called underground burial technique and Fuxi gossip are incompatible. There is also a reason why Dad dislikes the Liu family's underground burial master so much.
But the underground burial master of the Liu family is also a underground burial master after all, and this underground burial master who inherited the ancestral business and is talking to Hu Dabao also seems to have rich experience.
This person's statement is also simple, as long as he collects the jade symbolizing Xuanwu, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and these divine beasts, he will have a way to help Hu Dabao bring back the soul that was scattered.
The name of this underground burial master is Liu Tian, and he is the eldest son of the old underground burial master who maintained a friendly relationship with his grandfather.
Liu Tian didn't forget to tell Hu Dabao, but there was also a time limit for this method, and when he opened a battle for Hu Hui, if he didn't find all these kinds of divine beast jade within nine nine hundred and eighty-ten days, Hu Hui would never be able to save it.
Hu Dabao's heart remembered something, and he anxiously asked Liu Tian where the divine beast jade was? Liu Tian looked a little embarrassed, and said that the biggest difficulty in using this divine beast jade to summon souls was in the matter of collecting several kinds of divine beast jade.
Liu Tian has not seen these kinds of divine beast jade himself, but he has only seen it in the illustrated book, and according to the records on the data, this kind of divine beast jade is generally hidden on the four stone doors engraved with the words "颿靇", "Xiaoning", "gluttony" and "酃鹜".
The so-called divine beast jade is not a naturally born thing, according to rumors, it is a treasure made and handed down by the celestial burial master in ancient times.
And these four magical stone gates that contain the jade of the divine beast are not artificially formed, but an existence that was born in the ancient tomb with the help of divine power. This is also the key to the difficulty of finding divine beast jade.
But Hu Dabao was stunned when he heard Liu Tian say these words in great embarrassment—he knew where the "颿靇" stone gate, which belonged to one of these four stone gates, was!
Back then, he relied on that fortune after collecting pieces in that ancient tomb, and he will never forget the location of that ancient tomb even if it turned to ashes.
After Hu Dabao asked Liu Tian to help him open the battle, he turned back to Qingyun Town and immediately took a group of subordinates to the tomb where the ancient high-ranking officials were buried.
However, when Hu Dabao went, he did not feel happy because he knew the location of the stone gate, but his face was full of solemnity. Although many years have passed, Hu Dabao still clearly remembers what his grandfather said when he told him the location of the tomb.
Grandpa said that when you go to this ancient tomb to hunt for treasure, you must remember that you must not open the stone door engraved with the word "颿靿", otherwise you will be severely punished. Hu Dabao knows that what he is doing now is almost gambling on his life.
