Chapter Twenty-Four: The Night of the Resurrection

Qin Beiyang grabbed Qian Ke's arm and almost broke his bones, and Qian Ke screamed: "Oops! Let me go. ”

"Okay, let's build a tomb for Nine Colors here." Ouyang Anna could only agree to this crazy thought, "May it rest in peace in a foreign land." ”

That night, Qin Beiyang grabbed a shovel and dug the grave. He looked at the surrounding terrain, there was a small hill behind him, sitting north and facing south, and there was a small stream in front of him, which was a place of dragon vein feng shui. He made a hole in the wilderness on the edge of the farm and dug a small well of gold. Giuseppe Caprooni got some planks and made a simple coffin for the Nine Colors. Qin Beiyang even proposed to build a magnificent underground palace in accordance with the way of the Tang Dynasty. Ouyang Anna slapped him twice, hoping to save him from his madness.

After a sleepless night, in the early morning of the next day, Qin Beiyang had dug a big pit, and used the ancestral skills of Chinese stonemasons to make a stone tombstone, engraved with a line of regular script -

The tomb of the nine colors of the palace of Zhongnan County of the Tang Dynasty was recorded in the army

The inscription is "Fellow Qin Beiyang Weeps".

Ouyang Anna is from the Department of History of Peking University, and she knows that this record of joining the army is an official position in the palace of the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and it can be regarded as a posthumous gift to Jiuse. The word "comrade" is used in the inscription to represent that Qin Beiyang regards Jiuse as a close comrade-in-arms, rather than a master-servant relationship.

The warm wind blew in the late spring, and Qin Beiyang's face was full of tears. Overnight, his face was covered with beards, and he no longer looked like a teenager. And he pinched his fingers and calculated, today is an auspicious day for the zodiac to be buried,

"Providence so!"

Looking up to the sky and sighing, Qin Beiyang personally cleaned and wiped the body for the nine colors, just like a person bathing and changing clothes after death. He took off the Hetian warm blood jade pendant on his chest, and when he was born in the White Deer Yuan Necropolis Palace, he was given a meeting gift by nine colors. Now give it back to this small town grave beast. He stuffed the jade pendant into the mouth of Jiuse, just like the ancient dignitaries and nobles who had a night pearl in their mouths when they were buried.

Ouyang Anna, Li Longsheng, Qian Ke, and the Italian Caproni were dumbfounded, and even had cold spines.

Finally, Qin Beiyang wrapped the nine colors in a high-quality white cloth and gently put it into the coffin with a thin wooden plank. He kisses the lips of the dead nine-colored, just like a husband bids farewell to his deceased wife, and the surviving person bids farewell to his deceased husband. He then closed the coffin board with a nail and closed the coffin.

Qin Beiyang refused the help of others, held up his weak body, and buried the nine-colored coffin in the tomb, under three feet of loess.

Anna drew a cross in front of the tombstone: "Dear Nine Colors, dust to dust, dust to dust, may you rest in heaven." ”

She offered a bouquet of wild daisies to the nine colors, which she had picked from the forest in the morning. Anna kissed the jade ring on the middle finger of her left hand, although it was Qin Beiyang's love object, it came from Jiu Se, and she swore that she would wear it for the rest of her life.

The nine colors have been put into the ground, Qin Beiyang sat in front of the tombstone, his heart was cramping, and his lungs were burning hot. The past is vivid, nineteen years ago in the year of Gengzi, he was born in the Tang Dynasty tomb in Bailuyuan, reunited in Shanghai two years ago, and took the Mr. Sai airship to Damo Mountain, and then went to Beijing for adventures, went east to Japan to study and wander, and escaped on a French ship across the Pacific Ocean, crossed the Atlantic Ocean until Paris, and was buried in this foreign land. How many tribulations did they go through together? Nine colors saved him countless times and survived to this day. Except for his adoptive parents and biological father Lao Qin, the time he spent with Jiuse far exceeded the time he spent with anyone.

"Beiyang, the nine colors are over, look at your appearance!" Anna touched his hot forehead, "I'll take you to the hospital, go now." ”

Qin Beiyang pushed her away rudely, and said stupidly: "According to the old Chinese rules, the funeral must be done seven, and the monk and Taoist priest must be invited to surpass the soul, so that it can cross the Lechuan River and the Nai He Bridge as soon as possible, and go to the six realms of reincarnation and reincarnation." By the way, don't be a human in its next life, especially don't be a suffering Chinese! It's better to go back to the wilderness and be a free fawn. After 7749 days, I will kill Versailles, destroy the fortress, and avenge the Nine Colors by stabbing Dr. Holstein. ”

"You're crazy!"

Anna decisively slapped him, hoping that he would come to his senses.

Qin Beiyang didn't care at all, he took out the Tang knife behind his back and cut off a wooden stick neatly: "If there is a joke, it is like this wood!" ”

He sat in front of the tombstone of the Nine Colors from early morning to dusk, until he fell weakly, and was carried back to the cottage on the farm by Caproni and Chanco.

Li Longsheng didn't leave, he stayed and said to Ouyang Anna: "Qin Beiyang is affectionate and righteous, flesh and blood, and he treats Jiuse like this, and he will not treat his friends badly, I really want to be good friends with him." ”

Under Anna's stubborn pestering, Qin Beiyang finally ate a few bites of bread, drank a large bowl of oatmeal, and fell asleep groggy. Anna kept touching his forehead, and from time to time she gave him a little hot water and milk. She was worried that Qin Beiyang would gradually burn out his life like Jiuse......

In the second half of the night, the forest was filled with the screeching of owls and the occasional howl of wild wolves. Four years of world war, creating many no-man's lands in France. Wolves on the verge of extinction, gnawing at the corpses of the war dead, have reoccupied the forest.

Suddenly, strange footsteps sounded outside the cabin.

Or was Anna the first to wake up, worried about the army coming again? The Four-Winged Angel Tomb Beast, crouching on the roof of a house, is a key target of the French military.

But the footsteps were rather jumbled, not like human voices.

Giuseppe Caproni, Chanco, and Li Longsheng also woke up one after another, and they all put their heads behind the door. Caproni even pulled out a pistol.

Bang...... Something is banging on the door! The whole cabin was trembling, and there was movement on the roof, and the four-winged angel must have taken off in fright.

Qin Beiyang woke up, he turned over and jumped up, pushed away Anna and Qian Ke's blockade, and opened the door directly.

He saw a black shadow with a flashing green gaze, four legs, and a tail, and it was a wolf? No, there is also a pair of snow-white antlers, and this forest is also infested with European red deer.

Li Longsheng turned on the lantern, but a piece of golden scale armor shone out, the red mane on the neck, the antlers on the top of the head, and the same glass-colored eyes as Ouyang Anna.

Nine colors!

It is no longer the nine-colored of the big dog, but the real young Qilin Town Tomb Beast, which is also a fire unicorn and a winged unicorn.

Qin Beiyang was dumbfounded, as well as everyone behind him.

Jiu Se was looking at him, it recognized his face, stretched out its bronze nose, and pushed Qin Beiyang's navel eyes. In the middle of the night, it ran to the cabin and knocked on the door, just to find its master.

"Nine colors are back!"

In a second, Qin Beiyang had already burst into tears and laughed, hugging Jiu Se's neck and head, almost having his face cut by its antlers.

It opened its mouth and revealed the Hetian warm blood jade pendant, indicating its resurrection. He took the blood jade with mixed joy and hung it on his chest again, could it really have the wonderful effect of bringing the dead back to life?

No one but him dared to approach the beast from the grave.

Caproni rushed out with a lantern, and saw that the nine-colored cemetery where he was buried this morning had indeed been dug into a large pit, the coffin was shattered, the soil was dug up in a mess, and a pungent smell came out.

Is it the gravedigger who is coming? Or is it like a medieval legend that the freshly buried corpse turns into a vampire and climbs out of the coffin on its own?

Anna's lips were trembling, and she grabbed Chanko's arm and said, "Nine-colored...... Why...... Transformed? ”

Nine colors died as a big dog, and before he died, he had lost his ability to transform, why was he buried in the grave but turned back into a young Qilin Town tomb beast?

Ouyang Anna noticed that Jiu Se's stomach and back were still exposed to broken wounds, and almost the parts in the body could be seen, and there was a certain liquid in the body, all of which were stained with Qin Beiyang's hands, emitting a stench like a carrion. If it's a person, it's like just escaping from the medical examiner's dissecting table, covered in corpse fluid.

Qin Beiyang turned a blind eye to all this, and he was intimate with the nine colors who came back from the dead, as if returning to the good old days.

Giuseppe Caproni, carrying a horse lantern, looked at the owls flying overhead and the bleak moonlight, and said in a trembling French voice: "Have you ever heard of a pet cemetery? ”
