Chapter 62: The Tomb Keeper

"Do you know the Tomb Keeper?"

Velin and his grandfather, who had been silent for a while, looked at us and suddenly said something like this, so that we almost didn't turn the corner for a moment.

Mausoleum keepers, I remember that the teacher used to say in history class in the past, according to the literal meaning of the people who specialize in guarding the mausoleum, and in ancient times, after the death of the emperor, the mausoleum also had a special mausoleum keeper responsible for guarding the mausoleum to prevent those tomb robbers from coming to disturb the peace of the deceased.

Just when we were still in a daze, his grandfather said something that we didn't expect.

"Actually, it's the same as you just guessed, it's a tomb! A tomb that existed here I don't know how many years ago, my father was the keeper of this tomb, and he passed this identity to me after his death, but I, Lin Quanzhong, was the keeper of the previous generation. ”

After Wei Lin's grandfather finished speaking, the corners of his mouth were bitter, and he looked at the place in front of him in a complicated way.

"So there's an ancient tomb down here? Can you tell us more about whose tomb it is? Huang Xuan asked.

Lin Quanzhong shook his head and said: "I don't know, in fact, my father is not clear like me, I only know that the tomb is not a good thing, and the ancestral precept that has been handed down is that you must not let the things in the tomb come out, otherwise it will harm the world!" ”

Speaking of this, Lin Quanzhong became serious, and Huang Xuan and the other policeman glanced at each other, as if they didn't quite believe what Wei Lin and his grandfather said, but they didn't say anything about it.

"Then why did you choose to speak out now?" Huang Xuan said suspiciously.

Lin Quanzhong sighed and said: "Now it is a society governed by the rule of law, and I am not so conformist old man, the most important thing is because of my grandson Awei, seeing the way he looked just now, I always feel that what happened to him has a lot to do with this tomb!" ”

"I don't know what to do, old man, so I have to tell this matter, hoping that the police comrades can find a way to solve it."

Huang Xuan thought for a while and nodded: "Well, when I go back to the police station, I will notify the archaeological experts to come and take a look, if it is really as you said, this is an ancient tomb, then the ancient tomb will definitely be excavated, and all the things in the tomb will be handed over to the state." ”

Hearing Huang Xuan's suggestion, Lin Quanzhong nodded slowly as if relieved: "This may be the best ending!" ”

"Well, you guys go down the mountain first, we still have something to deal with!"

Now that the matter here is clear, Huang Xuan naturally wants us to go down the mountain, after all, there may be a suspect hidden in this mountain, and he still needs to take someone to search for it.

Wei Lin and his grandfather naturally had no objections, and the two of them were about to go down the mountain together, and Huang Xuan took out the phone and prepared to dial.

When I was walking with me, I couldn't help but look at Lin Quanzhong on the side, that is, Wei Lin's grandfather (let's use his name later), and saw that there was still a trace of sadness between his eyebrows, as if he was still thinking about something.

"Grandpa, I have a little question I don't know if I can ask you?" In the silence, I suddenly spoke up and said to Lin Quanzhong.

Lin Quanzhong turned his head to look at me and said with a smile: "Ren Sheng, if you have any questions, just ask, I should actually thank you for accompanying Awei to this poor and remote place." ”

I hurriedly shook my head and said with a smile: "Wei Lin is a good friend of mine, he also helped me at the beginning, and I should accompany him here." ”

Then I said, "Actually, what I want to ask is, you just said that you were the previous generation of mausoleum keepers, but who is this generation?" ”

Lin Quanzhong's walking steps slowed down, and he said with nostalgia and bitterness on his face: "The mausoleum keeper of this generation is actually my daughter, that is, Wei Lin's mother, but she died many years ago. ”

Sure enough, in fact, I had already guessed in my heart, but it was always just a guess if I didn't ask in person.

I said apologetically, "I'm sorry grandpa, I've met Wei Lin's parents before, so I know a little bit about it, sorry for mentioning your sadness." ”

"This was all many years ago, and it's sad enough." Lin Quanzhong waved his hand and told me not to care.

Seeing that Lin Quanzhong didn't resist, I couldn't help but ask Wei Lin the reason for his mother's death, but Lin Quanzhong, who had always known everything, was vague this time and only told me that he died of illness.

After all, it's a sensitive question, and if the old man says so, I won't ask it.

Chatting with Wei Lin and his grandfather, I also walked a distance, and suddenly I saw him stop suddenly, and I was puzzled by the side, when a voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

"Old fellow, as a mausoleum keeper, you actually told others all the secrets confessed by your ancestors, you can really do it!"

It was a gloomy and dry voice, which made people feel uncomfortable to hear, and it was then that I realized that there was a man standing next to the tree in front of us!

A man wrapped in a wide black robe, with a pitch-black mask on his face, is somewhat like the Grim Reaper's costume in a movie.

"Who are you? What the hell! "The sudden appearance of a strange person made my heart tremble, and I deliberately yelled at him loudly, trying to attract Huang Xuan's attention through his voice, but we had already walked far away, and it seemed that they would not hear it at all.

The black-robed man ignored me for my questioning, and just stood there quietly, and Lin Quanzhong on the side was also standing there straight, but his eyes were full of complexity.

I kept staring at the black-robed man, naturally I didn't notice the complexity in Lin Quanzhong's eyes, and suddenly thought of the case that happened in the Qingshi Temple before, the person in front of me was dressed so strangely and suddenly appeared here, it is very likely that this is the murderer of that murder case!

The thought that we were facing a murderer who had killed people made me nervous a little more!

"Lin Quanzhong, do you know the consequences of telling others about the ancient tomb!" The black-robed man spoke again in that gloomy tone.

"We have been arranging this plan for so long, and it is almost time to harvest, you still dare to make trouble for us, I think you are tired of this old man!"

The gloomy voice revealed anger, but the voice became a little strange.

"But it doesn't matter, we're ready anyway, and when we take the things and get here, it's over!" After the emotions passed, the black-robed man returned to his gloomy voice, but with a smile in his voice.

While the black-robed man was talking, my hand quietly put in my pocket and dialed Huang Xuan's phone number from memory, hoping that Huang Xuan would rush over as soon as he saw my phone.

After the call was made, I was a lot more relieved and less nervous than before.

"I have a question!"

When the black-robed man was complacent, I spoke again.

"Huh?"

This time, the black-robed man didn't ignore me, and a puzzled sound came out of his throat.

"Did you kill the old man in the bluestone temple?"

I finished word by word, keeping my eyes fixed on him, even though I couldn't see anything at all.

The black-robed man was silent for a while, and then suddenly said with a smile: "Hehe, boy, I didn't expect you to go to the bluestone temple." ”

"So, you really killed that man?"

"Hehe, I didn't say it, everything has to be evidence!" The black-robed man said quibly.

"You took those pendants too!"

This time, the black-robed man didn't answer me.

I ignored the silence of the black-robed man and continued: "In the past few years, I have heard that there have been many bizarre deaths in Qingshi Town, all of which are about the bizarre things about the woman killing the man between husband and wife, and all cases have a common clue, that is, you wore a small doll pendant, this pendant was placed in the bluestone temple, only the old man in the temple had contact with you, so you killed him!" ”

After saying that, I quietly watched the black-robed man and waited for his answer.
