Chapter 125: A Strange Tomb
"Brother Gu, what should we do now?" Zhou Jie walked up to Gu Xianmi and asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Now we can say for sure that the coffin must have been put into this coffin, but the question is, where is the coffin now? Was it transferred by the Spirits? If so, then for what? Gu Xianmi looked at the intact coffin in front of him and said.
"The coffin is the figurative body of the spirit, and in general, there are no special circumstances, it will not be transferred at will. Previously, it moved the coffin to where I live now, also to use the power of rutile. So if this time it is really a transfer carried out by itself, it must also be for a very important matter. Director Wang said at this time.
"Well, Director Wang is right. In this case, we might as well assume that the coffin was transferred away for some purpose. However, it has not been transformed into a spirit corpse, otherwise, its spatial ability will disappear, and it will inevitably need to break the coffin and the coffin chamber to come out. Everyone dispersed and searched the tomb. I believe that it is impossible for the dragon to disappear with the coffin without leaving a trace. Gu Xianmi said.
The other three all nodded, so Wang Dao, Zhou Jie, and Kang Zhonghui searched in the tomb separately, while Gu Xianmi carefully observed around the outer wall of the coffin.
Wang Dao took a flashlight to check the floor of the tomb, he remembered that when he fought with the bloody corpse, the bloody corpse caused a lot of damage to the floor of the tomb, but now the floor of the tomb is difficult to find even a scratch. It seems that the work of the dragon was very thorough when it came to restoring the tomb.
At that time, the blood corpse was killed by the Big Dipper Seven Killing Array that he and Zhou Jie jointly cast, and its entire head was turned into ashes by the Big Dipper Seven Killing Array, but the corpse below its head was not destroyed by the Big Dipper Seven Killing Array. But Wang Dao couldn't find the headless corpse at all, not even its coffin, not even a bit of wood that had been destroyed by tomb robbers.
Director Wang circled around the main burial chamber and met Zhou Jie, who came from the other side. The two looked at each other, then both shook their heads.
"It's strange, why did the Spirits do so thorough cleaning and repairing?" Zhou Jie said puzzled.
"I don't know. Let's look again, maybe we've missed something. Director Wang said with a frown.
Zhou Jie nodded helplessly, and then continued to search.
Director Wang carefully recalled the scene of the fight with the blood corpse at that time, he remembered that after they found the blood corpse at the beginning, they tested it, and then Zhou Jie relied on the rune paper to maneuver with the blood corpse for a while. Then he used the Jin knife to fight the bloody corpse, and relied on a sudden stab to nail the bloody corpse to the wall. And then...... Wait a minute! Since he nailed the bloody corpse to the wall at that time, then there will definitely be traces on the wall!
Director Wang immediately found the wall where he had nailed the bloody corpse with a knife according to his memory, and then shone it with a flashlight and slowly began to search.
Because the blade of the Jin knife is thin and narrow, the stab marks are not easy to find, and Wang Dao can only search next to the wall, little by little. He searched from the far right end of the wall, as he remembered that the location of his nail was probably closer to the right.
After five minutes, Director Wang finally found the stab marks left by the Jin knife at the beginning. He caressed the thorn scart and felt it with his psionic energy, and he could also feel the breath of blood corpses remaining in the thorn. In addition, Director Wang also felt a strange fluctuation of spiritual power, and his fingers also touched some extremely grainy powder. Director Wang shone his finger with a flashlight and found that what remained on his finger was a bright red powder.
Director Wang looked at it carefully for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed, "Rurutile?!" "That's right, these bright red powders are rutile powders! But Director Wang clearly remembered that the bloody corpse was pierced by the Jin knife before jumping on the roof of the coffin, digging out the rutile and swallowing it! Why did you find rutile powder in this thorn mark?!
"Director Wang, what's wrong? Have you found rutile yet? At this time, Gu Xianmi, who heard Director Wang's exclamation, ran over.
"Brother Gu, look." Director Wang showed Gu Xianmi the rutile powder on his fingers, and told him about the fight with the bloody corpse.
Gu Xianmi thought for a while and said, "According to your description, these rutile powders are definitely not left behind when you fought with the blood corpses. This means that the rutile powder must have been left behind by the spirits. But what happened? Why would a sprite turn an entire rutile into powder, and only in this thorn scar? ”
"Wait, Brother Gu, this tomb has been repaired so completely by the Dragons that only this very inconspicuous thorn has been missed. And don't you think it's a little strange that rutile powder appeared so coincidentally in this thorn mark? Director Wang said.
Gu Xianmi's eyes lit up and said, "You mean, the entire tomb was covered with rutile powder before, so there will be rutile powder in this thorn?!" But what about the other rutile powders? ”
At this time, Director Wang remembered the rapid improvement of the ability of the blood corpse after swallowing the rutile, and said, "Brother Gu, will it... The rutile powder has been absorbed by the dragon?! No, if that's the case, why didn't it do that in the room I live in a year ago? Moreover, isn't it true that spirits can't touch rutile? ”
"Indeed, the purifying power of rutile is wonderful to spirits, and although spirits are attracted to it, they cannot touch it. This is also the reason why the spirit is going to move the coffin to the room where you live now, and slowly accept the rutile ability. So, what's going on here? Faced with such a situation, Gu Xianmi was also a little confused.
"Brother Gu, I remember that after the blood corpse swallowed the rutile, its ability immediately increased to the level of the corpse transformation for three hundred years. Does rutile have any other abilities besides purifying power and soul attraction? Why did the blood corpse suddenly increase its strength after swallowing the rutile? Director Wang asked.
"I'm a little confused about that. All I know is that rutile has purifying powers and soul attraction, and I've used it for a while. You said that the blood corpse increased its strength after swallowing the rutile, and I really don't know what is going on with this. Gu Xianmi said with a frown.
"So what the hell is going on?" Director Wang also fell into hard thought.
Just as the two of them were thinking hard about the rutile powder in the thorn marks, Zhou Jie had already turned over and climbed onto the top of the coffin. He remembered that Zhou Boxi had told him that rutile should be placed on the golden section point at the top of the coffin. So he found the golden section point at the top of the coffin again, and then dug it up with a knife. He wanted to see how the rutile was doing.
The sound of Zhou Jie digging the top of the coffin attracted the attention of Wang Dao and Gu Xianmi, and Wang Dao looked up and asked Zhou Jie, "Zhou Jie, what are you digging?" ”
"Didn't my great-uncle and grandfather say that the rutile should be placed on the golden section point at the top of the coffin, I want to see if the rutile is still there." Zhou Jie replied while digging.
"Zhou Jie, don't dig it, the rutile has turned into powder. We have just discovered the powder of rutile here. Gu Xianmi pointed to the thorn mark and said to Zhou Jie.
"What?! Rutile has turned into powder?! That... What is it?! Zhou Jie reached out and took out a piece of something from the hole he had dug, then held it up and said to Wang Dao and Gu Xianmi.
Gu Xianmi used a flashlight to shine on Zhou Jie's hand, and was surprised to find that there was a rutile in Zhou Jie's hand!
"It's... How is this possible?! Director Wang looked at the rutile in Zhou Jie's hand and said in surprise.
Zhou Jie jumped down from the top of the coffin with the rutile in his hand, walked to Wang Dao and Gu Xianmi and said: "I bought the rutile at the beginning, and the one I bought is completely different from this one. ”
Gu Xianmi shined a flashlight on the rutile in Zhou Jie's hand and asked, "Zhou Jie, why are you so sure that this is not the rutile you bought?" ”
"Although it's been more than two months, I don't remember the specific shape of the rutile I bought, but I still remember that the rutile I bought was bright red, and this rutile, you see, is blood red!"
Indeed, due to the flashlight, at first glance this rutile is also bright red, but if you look closely, this rutile is indeed blood red. And, inside this rutile, it was as if there was blood flowing.
Gu Xianmi took the rutile in Zhou Jie's hand and observed it carefully. After a minute, he exclaimed loudly, "No, it's not rutile!" It's Bloodstone! ”
"Bloodstone? Brother Gu, what is Blood Ruby? Director Wang asked.
"Bloodstone?! This is Bloodstone?! Isn't the blood red stone a witchcraft stone that only the Jiangxi witch sect will use? How did it end up here?! Zhou Jie said in surprise.
"That's right, it's Bloodstone. If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Ze and I visited a senior of the Jiangxi Wu Sect half a year ago, I wouldn't have recognized the blood red stone. According to the senior, this kind of witchcraft stone is not easy to obtain. It needs to be made of white jade seeds, soaked in ox blood, and then used witchcraft to induce spiritual energy into the jade. After seventy-seven and forty-nine days, the white jade will turn into blood red stone. Its main function is to calm the soul. Gu Xianmi explained.
"But... Why did this special witchcraft stone of the Jiangxi Wu sect appear where the rutile should have appeared? For a ghost of this level, the soul-calming effect of the blood red stone is only ineffective against it. Zhou Jie asked suspiciously.
"Yes, even if the people of the Jiangxi Wu Sect want to use the blood red stone to suppress the dragons, it is impossible to do it. This... It doesn't make sense. Gu Xianmi looked at the blood red stone in his hand and felt that things were getting stranger and stranger.
"Hey, where's Zhonghui?" At this time, Director Wang suddenly remembered that Kang Zhonghui's figure had not been seen for a while.
"I remember he went to the ear chambers on both sides to search for it, and he should still be inside." Zhou Jie looked at the ear chambers on both sides and said.
Hearing Zhou Jie say this, Director Wang shouted Kang Zhonghui's name to both sides, but there was no response. Director Wang said with some anxiety: "No, there is no movement in these two ear chambers at all." ”
At this time, Gu Xianmi and Zhou Jie also found out that something was wrong, so the three of them walked into the ear chambers on both sides to search, but they found no trace of Kang Zhonghui.
Director Wang was worried and a little annoyed as he circled around the ear chamber on the right side and said, "This... What's going on, how could Zhonghui suddenly disappear? And still right under our noses?! ”
