For the next few days, my godfather was sullen and took some ancient books all day long. I understand his thoughts, and he is very disappointed that he didn't find the seven-star lamp.

And I have a great interest in the Soul Fixing Banner, and through the last incident, I have also seen some of its wonders, so I want to study it with my godfather.

"Go and go, that's the treasure of the evil spirit, can you just use it to play?" "The godfather shook his head like a rattle.

I still didn't give up, and then I got annoyed with him, and I took out the flag and told me helplessly: "Just take a look, be careful not to break it." ”

I took the flag and looked at it solemnly for the first time. The grip of the flag consists of several gourd-shaped bronze rings, with some strange inscriptions engraved on them, the whole flag is triangular, the black brocade surface has been somewhat broken, and some strange words are also embroidered on it, and the top of the flag is a spear tip like a red tassel gun. The whole flag exudes a quaint taste. At first glance, it may seem unremarkable, but in my heart, it's not that simple.

A month later, my godfather took me into town.

This was the first time I had been in town, and I was excited to look left and right along the way, everything was so new.

"Don't be stupid, let's go, let's go get a haircut first" The godfather was a little disdainful of my performance and pulled me into the barber's room.

Came out of the barber room and pulled me into a clothing store.

This is a sportswear store, and I was dazzled by the variety of clothes in the store, and after choosing left and right, my godfather found a set of clothes that I thought I was happy with, and asked the waiter to take me to the locker room.

After changing his clothes, his godfather's eyes lit up and he praised: "Yes, people are clothes and horses are saddles, and it looks a lot more handsome to wear this outfit." After saying that, he handed me a box: "Try these shoes too." ”

After buying me clothes, my godfather went to the store next door to buy a set of casual clothes. Not to mention, the tall and straight godfather shaved his beard and changed into a jacket is really a bit imposing and majestic, which attracted several waitresses in the clothing store to find opportunities to revolve around him, and I was secretly silly on the side.

While eating at the restaurant, I asked, "Godfather, you're also from the city, aren't you?" Is your city as big as Qujing? ”

The godfather was stunned: "Sort of, the city I live in is much bigger than here." Then he said thoughtfully, "Yes, I should take you to see it at the time." ”

After lunch, my godfather took me around the city again, and at last, we stopped in front of a quaint gate.

Qujing No. 1 Middle School.

Looking at the sign on my head, I was a little puzzled.

"This is the best middle school in Qujing, and there are many college students every year. Godfather introduced.

"Let's go, let's go inside." ”

The campus was bustling all the way, and there were frolicking students around us from time to time, all of whom were about the same age as me, but compared to me as a country boy, there was a lot more sunshine and confidence on their faces, and I felt a little inferior.

"Classmate, please help throw the ball over." A boy in a tracksuit shouted at me, pointing to a ball not far away. I walked over and picked up the ball and threw it to him. The boy thanked him and turned to play with his companion, and I watched with envy.

To be honest, since my godfather took me into the mountains, I haven't played with my friends, I am eager to study, and I am eager to play ball like them, but when I think that I can only live to be 20 years old, my heart is inexplicably uncomfortable, and for a while, I am a little melancholy.

The godfather watched silently from the side, seemed to understand my feelings, walked over and patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't look at it, let's go over there." ”

We turned left and right, and came to a small pavilion, and the godfather pointed to a large black stone tablet in the pavilion and said, "Take a look first, what is this?" ”

I stepped forward to take a look, the words on the stele were a little mottled, but I could still recognize it, and I silently recited: "The late Jin Dynasty Zhenwei General Jianning Taishou Fujun tombstone." ”

: "Also called the Baozi Monument." The godfather came over and added: "I have checked, the leaders of ethnic minorities in the border areas of Yunnan have been influenced by Han culture and imitated the Han system of tree monuments, so there is such a tombstone." ”

"Do you remember the murals we saw in the Yishan Ancient Tomb? It is very likely that the banner in the painting is related to this stone stele. The godfather continued: "At that time, the surnames of the wealthy families in the Nanzhong region were mainly concentrated in the two counties of Zhuti and Jianning. Jianning is the current Qujing. Among them, the most powerful surnames were Huo, Jiao, and Meng, and later Huo and Meng's two surnames were all killed, and the surname Jiao became the most powerful ruler in the region. ”

"Speaking of this stele, there is a little story. The stele was found during the Qianlong period, and was made into a stone slab of pressed tofu by a villager, and later the prefect of Qujing found that there were words on the tofu that he bought, and he was greatly surprised, so he sent someone to transport the stele back to the house. Before the liberation, someone moved the stele here. ”

"This prefect really has a heart" I wondered: "Since the stele is here, which ancient tomb is it?" ”

"That's where the confusion lies. The godfather replied: "After the stele was discovered, the prefect sent people to look for the cemetery, and when he found the villagers who sold tofu, he found that the stele was used by the villagers' great-grandparents to press tofu, and his great-ancestors have been dead for many years, and no one knows where the stele came from." Later, the prefect did not give up, and sent people to search the local area many times, but there was no gain. ”

"There's also news that it has a lot to do with whether or not you can cure your disease. The godfather sold a pass: "Because that treasure is also a dry fire." ”

"Dry fire? I cried out in surprise and hurriedly asked eagerly, "Then how old will he live?" ”

The godfather nodded and pondered: "I have consulted a lot of ancient books, and judging from the eight characters of Bao Baozi's birthday, it is indeed a dry fire life." The stele inscribed that he died at the age of twenty-three, even if the ancients were to be twenty-two years old, and I wonder what caused him to live another two or three years. ”

"So, as long as I find a way to prolong his life, I can also live a few more years?" "I was a little excited to hear that, after all, I didn't want to die so early. If my illness can be cured, I must go to the big city where my godfather is, and I still want to make a lot of money and take my parents, my parents, and my younger siblings......

"Don't be too happy, and don't say if the method of the treasure is suitable for you, we don't even know where his tomb is." You think, the prefect of the Qing Dynasty sent people to look for it many times but couldn't find it, and we probably went to find a needle in a haystack. ”

I laughed and said, "I'm lucky, isn't it?" When I was a child, I could meet you in the ancient tomb, you have been looking for so many years and the seven-star lamp has not been found, and the first time you took me out, you found it in the mural. I think that this trip to the tomb of Baozi will definitely be rewarding. ”

"I've been into a lot of ancient tombs over the years, but there has been no whereabouts of the Seven Star Lantern, maybe bringing you kid can really bring me good luck." The godfather also scolded with a smile: "But this time we are going to the general's tomb, we need to make more preparations." ”
