【082】 The Secret of the Skeleton
When Zhong Kui was found before, Zhiqing had no chance to go down to the tomb. It was someone else who rescued Zhong Kui, not Wengen anyway. When they later searched for the man, it was said that he had died unexpectedly.
When Zhiqing and Zhong Kui went down to the tomb, the eerie cold came to the striking, and it was completely possible to describe the feeling at that time with a gust of cloudy wind.
Zhiqing, who went down to the tomb, saw the tablet still standing on the stone staircase under the guidance of Zhong Kui. The font on the tablet is vaguely visible, and the general meaning of the tablet is to prompt the meaning of the heavens to the people!
The two entangled skeletons were still so friendly and embraced each other, maybe the two of them were shocked by what they had entered. This alarmed the creatures hiding in the eye sockets of the skeleton, only to see a centipede with a dull golden luster, quickly crawling out of the black hole socket of the skeleton.
When a living person is personally confronted with two entangled human skeletons. If you want to maintain 100% sobriety and calm demeanor, you must have a strong psychological quality to achieve this state.
Zhong Kui has such a psychological quality, he has the immunity that ordinary people do not have after being tempered to endure the harsh environment in the tomb. So he went down to the cemetery very calmly, as calmly as if he was walking on the ground.
Zhiqing is different, it is not that he does not have super psychological quality, but he has never looked at two hideous skeletons at such a close distance. When he caught a glimpse of the centipede crawling out of the skull's eye socket, he was so shocked that he barely slipped out of the tomb.
Fear is fear, and you have to get down to business, don't you?
With Zhong Kui by his side, who was full of confidence, Zhiqing was able to calm down and carefully examine the skeletons one by one.
Zhong Kui always remembered the feeling he had in the hallucination in the tomb, when he had eaten a poisonous fruit. What kind of steel needles as thin as a hair are all hallucinations.
Zhiqing found that the skeleton as a whole didn't seem to have been touched by anyone, and then confirmed by Zhong Kui. He was even more sure that the incident in the tomb that he had heard before was an ancient legend of corpses did not have a factual basis.
In this turbulent era, who still has the heart to do this? Yes, it is just a perfunctory formality. It's like the pompous wind that is popular today, and it's the same as what kind of train is pushed, and the cowhide is blown.
Anyway, in this era, it depends on who will blow it, and no one cares if they play with two mouths, and blow a word that is not tight to the sky.
The facts verified next made the rumors that Zhiqing heard self-defeating.
The two of them took the dagger off the skeleton, the weight of the dagger was heavy enough, but it was not its own weight. It was supposed that the blood of the two of them was clotted on the dagger, causing the dagger to rust and thus increase its thickness.
Zhong Kui picked up the dagger and bumped it against the stone wall of the tomb pit, and this bump knocked a large piece of rust on the dagger. The dagger after the collision with the rust revealed its true face.
The dagger is engraved with a font, this dagger is a little shorter than the length of Zhong Kui's short-handled scabbard, and the font on the dagger is Xia Zhi'an.
Xia Zhi'an is the person Zhiqing is looking for, could it be that one of the two skeletons is Xia Zhi'an?
found Xia Zhi'an by mistake, which undoubtedly gave Zhiqing a big surprise.
What happened to Xia Zhi'an and this benevolent brother.
If Zhiqing didn't guess wrong, this person who was entangled with Xia Zhi'an was definitely another person who disappeared for no reason.
Just when Zhiqing was very entangled, Zhong Kui said a word: "Uncle Chen, I think of one thing. ”
Zhiqing glanced at Zhong Kui speechlessly, and acquiesced to the other party's continuation.
Zhong Kui continued: "I don't understand reading books, those big and small words recognize me, I don't recognize them. I had to look at the pattern, and when I was flipping through it, I saw a very strange pattern. ”
"What's this strange method?"
Zhong Kui frowned as if he was reminiscing, then looked at Zhiqing and continued: "That article is all patterns, and there are no fonts. The pattern, uh......" He subconsciously looked into the tomb, and then said, "Not here, yes, it's similar to that sarcophagus." ”
"And then?" Zhiqing said nervously.
"There's a ...... lying in the sarcophagus," Zhong Kui said, pointing to the skeleton that had been tossed apart by the two of them, "this kind of skeleton." ”
"What else? Think about it. ”
''Shhh And ...... And also...... By the way, there is also a person with something in his hand, standing next to the sarcophagus, also holding a book in his hand. It's like muttering something.
"Do you remember what that book looked like?" Zhiqing asked in a hurried tone.
Zhong Kui nodded and said, "I remember." ”
"In that case, we don't have the ability to complete it here for the time being, so let's go back to Xia Laohan's house to read the book first."
Zhong Kui nodded again, picked up the dagger in a cloth bag, glanced at the shattered skeleton, and hurriedly bowed to the two of them with his hands folded.
When Zhiqing saw Zhong Kui doing this, he also hurriedly bowed to the two skeletons, and muttered in his mouth: "I'm sorry to disturb the peace of the two, wait until we finish the matter, and then worship the two of you." ”
Zhiqing is telling the truth, he has traveled from south to north, and he has heard some strange things that science can't explain clearly.
Although; In order to seek the truth, he had to disturb the deceased. But once you offend a vicious spirit, the consequences can be imagined.
Zhong Kui looked at ease and contented, and he looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he urged him to leave in a few words.
Wengen stayed on the ground alone, waiting in fear for a while. He kept looking at his watch, at the silk thatch that was shaking in the wind. He's scared! Fear that something scary will suddenly come out. Especially when I thought of the three people who had died in the woods with blood, I was even more frightened and my legs were sifting like chaff.
But after thinking about it, the bloodthirsty werewolf has been eliminated, and my heart is a little more stable. When the wind pressed again, blowing the silk thatch or something out of motion, one of his hearts hung and pounded again.
Waiting left and right, I finally felt that the kudzu vine in my hand was shaking, so I jumped up nervously and shouted, "Are you up?" "The voice is really vibrato.
When Zhong Kui and Zhiqing climbed up from the bottom of the pit, they saw that Wen Gen's face was not a trace of blood, and the whole body was white, and even the skin of his mouth was purple and black like the color of eggplant.
Zhiqing asked Wengen with concern what was going on.
Zhong Kui pursed his lips and snickered, he knew that Wen Gen was because of various fears that caused heart rate disorders, and then his face changed color and other reactions.
Wen Gen didn't notice that someone was snickering, and under the master's inquiry, he deliberately pulled up an expression that was more ugly than crying and said, "Cold, jump, hey!" ”
"It's okay, let's hurry back to Xia Laohan's house."
As a result, after Zhong Kui handed the book to Zhiqing, they never thought that a secret that they couldn't figure out if they wanted to break their heads was actually in this book.
