In the past, when I went out to run errands, I had done a lot of digging graves, so I naturally knew what was going on inside.

Of course, this is not to covet the contents of the tomb, but because after death, the corpse may also become an evil cult that plagues the world, and in order to suppress it, it can only be so.

Entering the tomb, I said, "It's dark." ”

Looking up at the entrance of the cave we had just entered, it was as if looking at the sky from a deep well, with only a little light left, and the tomb was so dull and rotten that it could not help but suffocate people.

I 'touched' the walls around me, and it was wet and slippery, and it was a thick layer of moss as far as I could reach.

"Did we just have a lantern?" Looking at the darkness ahead, I kindly reminded.

"Yes, but I left it out." Yuqing replied.

I immediately turned around and made a gesture to climb the rock on the wall of the tomb: "You guys wait a while, I'll go out and get it first." ”

"So far away, can you still find it?"

Yuqing's next words completely dashed my hopes: "Moreover, I didn't bring flint, did you bring them?" ”

I looked at her, was silent for a while, and said very speechlessly: "Tomb robbery without flint is like asking for food without plates." ”

Xie Yuqing sighed, and said lightly: "Lord Gu didn't say that we are here to investigate the case, not to rob the tomb, and besides, all the people who ask for food are bowls, never plates." ”

“……”

At this time, I really had nothing to say, and when I saw them raising their feet and wanting to leave, I hurriedly said, "Wait a minute." ”

took out a purse from his sleeve and opened the seal, Xie Yuqing saw this, and asked suspiciously: "What is this?" ”

I didn't answer, I held the purse, waved it in the air a few times, and a faint fragrance emanated from all around, and after a while, some cattails floated in from the mouth of the hole, surrounding us, and under the attraction of the smell, one after another slowly burrowed into my purse, and in a short time, it gathered into a small ball of light.

This is a small monster.,The origin is very interesting.,The mother is actually a giant tree.,It's obviously a monster.,But it can bloom and produce seeds.。

The seeds are scattered with the wind, because the appearance is very similar to dandelions, but like fireflies that can shine, so they are named cattails, the light of the cattails is brighter than the fireflies, hundreds of them get together, you can illuminate a house, but unfortunately it is autumn now, and the cattails are almost asleep, so the use of "medicine" that can attract them is only to summon a dozen.

"Can you see it?" I asked Xie Yuqing.

She looked around, nodded, and replied, "It's okay." ”

Hearing this, I carefully handed her the purse and said, "Then Miss Lao will lead the way." ”

Xie Yuqing took the purse in his hand, looked at me with a smile in his eyes: "Master Gu, you are indeed afraid of the dark, right?" ”

"How so?"

I flatly denied it, and said, "It's just that looking at the darkness in this tomb, I'm afraid that the girl will go the wrong way and hit some mechanism by mistake, which will not be good." ”

Xie Yuqing turned around and replied: "This tomb, I don't know how many times I have walked with the Wen family, and now I can find the way to the main tomb with my eyes closed, what are you afraid of?" ”

I smiled and said dryly: "It's good for the girl to remember 'sex', I admire it." ”

I began to lose my sense of taste half a year ago, and my eyes have not been very good recently, for ordinary people, the darkness that can still be tolerated, in my place, I am like a blind man, I can't see anything, just like now, the purse in Xie Yuqing's hand, what I see in my eyes is just a blurry point of light.

With Lin Suwen's intelligence and acuity, if I 'revealed' a flaw, he would definitely be able to think of the Gu family, so in front of him, I could only carefully cover up this matter.

People always have an inexplicable fear of darkness.

What's more, behind this darkness represents death.

To be honest, I'm quite scared, after my sense of taste, if I don't even have vision, what if I still want to work in Hongwen Pavilion in the future?

I am the first person to be introduced into my body so many resentful spirits at the same time, so even if I have the memories of the Gu family's predecessors, I don't know what will happen, the expected five senses have been lost, and I have lost two, which means to what extent I have reached and how long I can live, these questions are unknown.

So in the midst of a lot of irritability, there is more apprehension and uneasiness.

The topography of this tomb "cave" is tortuous and complex, and the space at first was quite spacious, but I didn't expect to walk and walk, but I entered a narrow road, and I felt reluctant to pass through alone.

I have seen a kind of tomb "hole" mechanism, once triggered, the walls in the tomb will move, sandwiching people in it and squeezing them to death, there are not a few, it stands to reason that King Rui built the tomb "cave" in order to place those treasures, and will not build such a narrow corridor to cause trouble for himself, think about it, probably Peng Zhen or someone from the Wen family, accidentally triggered the mechanism.

There was silence all around, only the sound of our footsteps, I was suffocated, and I couldn't help but say, "Hey, what are you doing, but say something!" ”

Xie Yuqing led the way in front, we walked in the narrow corridor, the purse, she held it in her hand, and was blocked by her figure, I couldn't see the light, I couldn't see their figures, the footsteps were too weak, and I couldn't see the light on the top of the tomb, so I couldn't judge how far away they were from me, and I could only discern their location by speaking.

Sensing my uneasy tone, Xie Yuqing smiled and said jokingly, "Master Gu, aren't you really afraid?" ”

"What?"

I immediately blew up "Mao": "Girl, are you kidding?" ”

"I'm a warlock below, and the yin spirit sees me, like a mouse sees a cat, what am I afraid of them?"

"In the tomb, there are not only yin spirits and evil spirits, maybe what Lord Gu is afraid of is something else, such as ......"

She paused and said, "Mouse? ”

Thinking of the warlocks who I was "forced" to eat rats a few days ago, I hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I am afraid of mice, and I am afraid of death!" ”

Listening to the voice, Xie Yuqing seemed to be quite far away from me, I was afraid that I would not be able to keep up with them, so I hurriedly walked a few steps, accidentally stopped my foot, and suddenly hit a back.

I suddenly miscalculated, because I was talking to Xie Yuqing, Lin Suwen didn't say a word, I almost forgot him, and now I remember that Lin Suwen followed Xie Yuqing just now, according to the position, he should be between me and Xie Yuqing, so this back is his.

After being bumped into by me, Lin Suwen really stopped, and I realized that the person in front of me was him, so I quickly bounced away, took a step back, and waited for his reaction with some weakness.

Lin Suwen didn't speak, I waited for a while, reached out and 'touched', but didn't 'touch' the person, took two steps forward, still didn't 'touch' the person, thought about it, and walked away.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and complained: "You say this person, he is dead, why do you need any tomb 'cave', no matter who it is, it is just a bone after death, and repairing such a thing will only take up space, and it will also attract tomb robbers to come and dig the tomb 'hole' into a mess, why bother?" ”

Xie Yuqing sighed and said, "Then according to what Lord Gu said, do you want to burn people to ashes and scatter them into the rivers and leave nothing?" ”

"Don't say it, I have indeed seen this kind of thing when I went out to run errands on the orders of the master before, but they didn't scatter people into the rivers, but used them as fertilizer and buried them in the flower soil."

When someone talked to me, I felt a lot more relieved, so I chattered: "Life in the world is composed of thousands of particles between heaven and earth, and after death, they return to dust, turn into thousands of particles to nourish all living beings, and can also be integrated with the falling flowers and soil, I feel very good." ”

"Having said that, no one wants to die in the wilderness of violent corpses, and there is not even a tombstone."

I feel that Xie Yuqing is really a good girl, knowing that I have nothing to say, but she still patiently cooperates with me, unlike Lin Suwen, the whole person is cold, like a wood.

"Whoever says it, I am willing, if I die in the future, before I die, I will go to a quiet mountain forest, preferably the kind where there is no one, die silently, let it be, and would rather be in a coffin and sealed in a cold tomb, without bothering anyone and making anyone feel sorry for me."

"Lord Gu is still so young, he has thousands of days to live in the future, why do you have to think about the aftermath now?"

"This ......" I was speechless for a while, and hurriedly covered it up: "It's okay to be idle, think about it randomly, haha." ”

As I was walking, I suddenly tripped over a stone under my feet, I stumbled a little, and hit Lin Suwen's back again, I really wanted to die.

Busy said: "There's a stone there, I really don't blame it." ”

Afraid that Lin Suwen would be unhappy and make trouble for me, he silently retreated a few steps, and walked away with confidence until he had already walked away, but unexpectedly bumped into his back again.

I really don't blame me this time.

So I immediately asked: "Hey, Lin Suwen, what are you doing, what are you doing standing there!" ”

I wanted to say something, but I felt as if he sighed, 'groped' to find my arm, and took my sleeve before continuing to walk.

The voice of complaining stopped abruptly, I was a little weak and a little apprehensive, but I heard Xie Yuqing ask with concern: "Master Gu, are you okay?" ”

I glanced at Lin Suwen in front of me, although I couldn't see anything, he must still have that cold wooden face now.

Turning his head, he replied sullenly, "It's okay." ”

Because he pulled the sleeves, I can accurately grasp the distance between us, so that I don't have to bump into him again, and I don't have to worry that I will be left behind by them, but I just bump into him one after another, I'm afraid that Lin Suwen has already discovered that my vision has deteriorated, so I will do this.

Inevitably, he doubted me, so I was silent for a moment and said, "Brother Lin, have you gained weight recently, you have covered all the light for me, and you can't see anything behind you." ”

Lin Suwen ignored me, but listened to Xie Yuqing's slightly funny voice: "Master Gu, you are actually really afraid of the dark, not of rats, right?" ”
