The secret of the family's life and death?

Hearing what Shirley Yang said so seriously, Hu Bayi was a little surprised.

I just wanted to ask, but my expression became even more shocked...... It's a bit of a daydream.

Why?

Because Shirley Young was undressing......

"Hey, Miss Yang, calm down. Although I have heard that you Americans are more open-minded, I am not a casual man......

Otherwise, let's find a more secluded room......"

"Hu Bayi!"

Shirley Yang snorted indignantly.

"Uh...... What's wrong Miss Yang? ”

"What's your brain messed up with? I'm here to show you the mark on my back. ”

After saying that, Shirley Yang turned sideways......

Her dress was unbuttoned a bit, revealing her entire right shoulder.

At the intersection of the right shoulder and the back, there was a red spot the size of a child's fist.

"Huh? What's going on? Birthmark or skin disease? ”

Hu Bayi was a little surprised, not understanding what Shirley Yang meant by showing him this red spot.

"This is the mark of our family that has been passed down from generation to generation, and no one can avoid it......"

While sorting out her clothes, Shirley Yang slowly told the secrets of the family.

It turned out that her ancestors were not Chinese, but migrated from the European continent thousands of years ago.

Eventually settled near the "Zagrama Mountain" in the depths of the Tamaramakan Desert.

I don't know how many years they have lived here, and they have formed a fairly large tribe: the Zagrama tribe.

One day, the tribesmen accidentally discovered a huge underground cave deep in the belly of the mountain, and named it "Ghost Cave".

The ghost cave is unfathomable and mysterious.

In order to explore the ghost cave, the sorcerers of the clan also heard a legend somewhere, saying that there is a golden jade giant eye in the far east, which can peek into the secrets of heaven and earth.

So, I tried every possible way to find a golden jade and imitated a jade eye.

Then a ceremony was held through the secret method circulated within the clan, which was equivalent to opening the light to the jade eyes and wanting to peek into the secret of the ghost cave.

As a result, the secret was not solved, but the whole clan fell into a great disaster......

The prophets and sages of the clan deduced that these disasters originated from the ghost cave, and advised the tribesmen to leave this place and stay away from the ghost cave.

As a result, the Zagrama people had to leave their homeland and eventually came to the Central Plains at that time, where they integrated into the local life and passed on from generation to generation.

But what they didn't expect was that

Even if you are far away from the ghost cave, the disaster has not stopped.

Before, when the clansmen had not left the ghost cave, almost all of them had visited the ghost cave.

Later, without exception, a kind of eyeball-shaped erythema appeared on the back, which could not be eliminated for the rest of his life.

By the age of 40, the blood becomes thicker and thicker, and the pain is unbearable with the symptoms of breathlessness.

Once you start having a seizure, you will die within a few years......

"And such a strange thing? Could it be an evil curse from antiquity? ”

Hu Bayi exclaimed.

Anyone else might think it's a fantasy. However, Hu Bayi had seen a lot of supernatural phenomena with his own eyes, so he didn't question Shirley Yang's words.

I believe she wouldn't have made up such an outrageous story to deceive him.

"Perhaps, it's a curse......

Shirley Yang shook her head and smiled bitterly.

"In short, the ghost cave must be hiding a shocking secret. Otherwise, our people would not have been affected by the inheritance. ”

"Wait...... So, you are a descendant of the Zagrama clan, which means that you have also been cursed and will not live to be fifty years old? ”

"No!" Shirley Yang shook her head: "As long as you stay away from the ghost cave, the duration of the attack will be extended by almost ten years, which is why we settled in the United States." ”

"I see...... It can be extended by ten years, which is also very sad. ”

Shirley Yang sighed faintly.

"So that's why my grandfather, my father, and I did everything they could to explore the cave.

Back then, in order to resolve the disaster that has been passed down from generation to generation, everyone in our clan was trying their best to find a way.

Later, a clue was finally discovered, and that was the dust beads.

According to legend, this is the eye of the gods, which is obtained by the Yellow Emperor to worship the sky.

There is also a legend that believes that the dust bead is an artifact, and its mysterious power can be used to reincarnate and cultivate into immortals.

And it is also the original form of the jade eye imitated in the clan.

After learning this clue, some people in the clan said that using this real jade eye to sacrifice to the ghost cave would definitely resolve the disaster caused by the ancestors' imitation of the jade eye.

However, the whereabouts of the dust beads are a mystery.

According to the analysis of folk circulation, the dust beads should be buried in the tomb of a prince and nobleman as a burial object.

Since then, in order to get rid of the curse, the Zagrama people have begun to scatter around the country to find ancient tombs, and have become one of the four major branches of the tomb robbery system......"

"Moving mountains? I didn't expect that moving mountains turned out to be a genre created by you Zagrama people......"

Hu Bayi drank it in surprise, and then felt that it was wrong.

"Then you should be the heir of the mountain-moving faction, how can there be a golden talisman?"

"This is because my grandfather later worshipped a master of gold touching as a teacher, and inherited the gold touching talisman from him.

My grandfather spent his whole life looking for the dust beads, but unfortunately, he couldn't do so until he died. ”

Hu Bayi frowned and said, "So, you also want to look for the dust beads?" I've heard of this thing, and some people call it phoenix gall.

It is said that the size is like a chicken egg, the whole body is red, and the pattern in the middle is like a human eye, which is a first-class yang thing between heaven and earth.

But this thing has always been ethereal, it has always existed in legends, and it is not easy to find it. ”

Shirley Yang smiled bitterly: "Naturally, it's not easy, our clansmen have been looking for hundreds of years. ”

"I mean, there's a good chance it's a legend at all......"

"No, according to the genealogical records, the dust beads are indeed real. At that time, my ancestors found a bronze tripod of the Shang Dynasty, on which the origin of the dust beads was clearly recorded......

You should know that the content recorded in the ancient bronze tripod is by no means child's play. ”

"I see!"

Hu Bayi nodded thoughtfully.

Then he asked, "Since you said that it is possible to solve the disaster of your clan, what should you do in the Exquisite Ancient City?" ”

"The Elite Country, mainly composed of the Ghost Cave Clan. Obviously, after our people left, they inadvertently broke in and discovered the ghost cave.

This is the origin of the name of the Ghost Cave Clan.

Since they used the ghost cave as a stronghold, established the Elite Kingdom, and developed rapidly, there should be a special reason for this.

It is also possible that they solved the secret of the ghost cave through some secret method.

My father is not from the Zagrama ethnic group, and he will not be affected in any way.

However, in order to save my mother and me, he risked his life to go deep into the desert to find the exquisite ancient city......"
