Chapter 405: Yan Xiaotian's Request
He probably noticed my strange eyes, gave me an embarrassed smile, and explained: "In the past, I called him Master, which was to remember his kindness, but in the past few years, I have been doing business with him, and I can be regarded as seeing his face clearly. Zhao Dekai, he is going to put our Baiwu Mountain to death. Youdao, in fact, I came this time to ask you to come back to Shaanxi with me. ”
I pulled a piece of mutton and put it in my mouth, chewing it, and asked him, "What's the matter, there's an accident in Shaanxi again?" ”
Yan Xiaotian was silent for a moment before he said to me: "Recently, something has gone wrong in business, and I suspect that there may be internal ghosts among the people on our side. ”
I squinted at him: "You make it clear, is there an inner ghost in your people, or is there an inner ghost in the person we arranged for you?" ”
Yan Xiaotian was silent for a while, and then said, "It's all possible." ”
Originally, I was going to ask him to talk about the specific situation over there, but Luo Fei interrupted us: "Youdao has just come out, what can't you talk about tomorrow?" Let's rest first, okay! ”
Yan Xiaotian immediately raised his hand and surrendered: "I was wrong, I was wrong, yes, yes, yes, I'll talk about it tomorrow, don't worry, well, don't worry." ”
can look at his expression, obviously he is very anxious.
But I'm not going to ask any more, now I don't want to care about anything, I just want to rest first.
Xian'er picked up the kettle and poured me a large bowl full of hot milk, and I took a beautiful sip and let out a long breath, feeling that my whole body had become extremely relaxed.
It's good to survive.
When I was about to end the party, I remembered the mountain god again, so I asked Mr. Sun how the mountain god came here.
Mr. Sun said that in the past two days, they found a half-meter-wide hole near the body of the mountain god, the wall of the cave was stained with the blood and flesh of the mountain god, and the bones of the mountain god still had frostbite.
Liang Houzai analyzed: "A hole more than half a meter wide? If you guessed correctly, the corpse of A should have left the night mound and came to the ground, and it didn't know how to attract the mountain god. There was frostbite on the bones, the kind of scars that must have been left by the night demons. This is strange, the night demon has been pressed under the stone platform, and its black gas can't come out at all, how can it hurt the mountain god? One more thing, if I'm not mistaken, it seems that the corpse led us to the stone gate at the beginning, right? ”
I thought about it for a moment and nodded.
Liang Houzai frowned tightly and said, "If the armor corpse knows that the Fantian Seal is one of the keys to suppressing the Night Demon, and it is the Night Demon's minions, why did it lead us over?" It doesn't make sense at all. ”
Listening to Liang Houzai's words, I also realized that something was wrong.
Liang continued: "When I was chatting with Liu Shangang just now, I talked about the stone wall near the spring, and Liu Shangang said that the construction principle of that wall is a bit similar to concrete, that is, mud is mixed with gravel, so that the wall will become stronger and more difficult to break. Although the corpse has a certain IQ, it is not smart enough to think of building a wall with a mixture of mud and stone, and that wall must have been deliberately built by someone. In other words, there were other people who went in between we entered the mound. ”
At this time, Liu Shangang interjected: "Has anyone ever gone in?" Why didn't these people remove the golden mirror from the tunnel, it was worth a lot of money. ”
Liang Houzai said: "Either they don't care about that bit of gold, or those people are pressed for time and don't have extra time to disassemble those gold mirrors." I think that the people who entered the night mound before must have cultivated extremely high, the mountain god was frozen to death, and the stone gate froze, all of which showed that the power of the night demon had left the large array laid by Yu Xian, I think, those people should have used the night demon to do something, and after the matter was over, the night demon was sealed into the big array. ”
Speaking of this, Liang Houzai turned his face to me: "And Brother Dao, don't you think it's strange, Mindu once said that the night demon is reincarnated in three thousand years, according to it, the time that appears in numerology and fate is very accurate, three thousand years is three thousand years, it will not be three thousand years and one year, nor will it be three thousand years and one month, but since the night demon was sealed, the year has exceeded the whole three thousand." ”
I nodded, "It's a bit counterintuitive. ”
Liang Houzai continued: "I think that at the end of the first three thousand years of reincarnation, the descendants of the Great Holy Ancestor should enter the Night Mound, but it seems that his purpose in entering the Night Mound is not to seal the Night Demon, but to do something else. But he also let the night demon enter the next reincarnation, and I think that the corpse lured us to the stone gate because of some of the things this person had done. ”
I thought about it for a moment and said, "The descendants of the Great Holy Ancestor...... It doesn't have to be someone from Soul Village. ”
Liang Houzai: "Well, in fact, all the Taoist family members can be regarded as the descendants of the Great Holy Ancestor." However, the fact that there is a hidden tomb here is probably only known to the people of Soul Village, right? ”
As he spoke, Liang Houzai looked at me, Uncle Liu and Mr. Sun.
Uncle Liu responded: "In addition to the Soul Village, there are actually people who know, but those who can freely enter the Jizo Tomb, except for Mr. Sun, are the only people from our Soul Village, oh, now I have to count you juniors." ”
Mr. Sun also chimed in: "In normal times, even if someone comes for special training, they still enter the canyon blindfolded and open the entrance to the Jizo Tomb, which is not allowed for them to see. ”
Liang Houzai brought the topic back to the right path: "In this way, the person who enters the Night Tomb one step ahead of us can only be the elders of the sect of Jisoul Village." ”
I stared at Liang Houzai: "You mean ......?"
Liang Houzai sighed: "The only one who can enter the night mound without everyone knowing it can only be your uncle." ”
"Zhao Zongdian?" Uncle Ke suddenly raised his voice and asked, "What is he doing in the night mound!" ”
Liang Houzai spread his hands: "I'm afraid only he can explain this kind of thing." However, I think that with his person, entering the night mound may be a little inconvenient for the purpose of telling people, but there is certainly no malice. ”
I heard Uncle Ke shouting: "No malice? Without malice, what does it mean that he blocked the spring? You don't know Zhao Zongdian, he is a crooked and evil way, he entered the night mound, and he definitely didn't have a good heart! ”
I can hear that Uncle Ke is prejudiced against my uncle.
Liang Houzai looked a little embarrassed, but he still defended his uncle: "Although I don't have a deep relationship with him, I have met once......"
I waved my hand and interrupted Liang Houzai: "Don't discuss this matter anymore. One day I found my uncle, and many things could be figured out. ”
In fact, I interrupted Liang Houzai's speech to stop the discussion about my uncle, I estimate that if the discussion continues, Uncle Ke will start scolding, emotionally speaking, I don't want to hear others scold my uncle, after all, it is the same uncle.
Uncle Ke probably understood my inner thoughts, and he didn't chase after this question anymore.
After eating, Liang Houzai and I packed up the dishes and chopsticks together, and then left the tent alone and came to a small hill near the stream.
After more than a month in the mound, the midsummer had passed, and there was a slight coolness in the air, so I wrapped my clothes and sat down against a stone on the mountain bag.
The grass on the ground was soft, and I stretched out and looked at the stars in the sky.
Even in the small city where I live, there are only a few scattered stars at night, but in this pasture away from the hustle and bustle of the city, there is a galaxy of stars gathered together at night.
I once looked up at the starry sky when I first came here, and after that, I was so exhausted by the daily training that I barely had the strength to look up at it again.
This is the second time I've stared at the galaxy, and I don't know why, but every time I see the night dome occupied by these bright white stars, I feel an indescribable peace in my heart.
In this state, I was able to leave all my worries behind.
The wind was blowing, and Xian'er's voice came from behind me: "When I didn't find you at the place where you lived, I knew that you must have run to this nerves." ”
I smiled and didn't speak.
Xian'er was still wearing her favorite white dress, and the wind became stronger, and the hem of the skirt shook violently, making a hunting sound.
She went up the hill and stuffed a small boxy box to me: "Luo Fei gave it to you, she was embarrassed to give it, so I sent it for her." ”
I took the box: "What's it?" ”
Xian'er: "Just look at it." ”
When I opened the box, it was a brand new phone, but the battery was dead, so I tried to turn it on, but I couldn't turn it on.
Xian'er said: "Lao Luo's family recently made a mobile phone shop, this mobile phone is a limited edition, and Luo Fei left it for you." She brought it with her during the Chinese New Year, and she has always been embarrassed to give it to you, I also saw this box, and asked several times before she told me that it was a gift for you. This girl is really, she looks cheerful and spicy on the outside, but in this kind of thing, she is just as sullen as you. ”
When I put the phone back in the box, Xian'er suddenly changed her words: "Zuo Youdao, in fact, there is one thing I have always wanted to ask you, me and Luo Fei, which one do you like?" ”
When she asked me this, I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
Xian'er is so direct, I know she will ask me this question sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be tonight.
I pretended to cough twice, deliberately diverting the subject: "It's so late, aren't you going back to sleep?" ”
Xian'er: "Don't interrupt, answer the question." ”
I scratched my nose with my fingers and said, "I'm not an adult yet, and I don't dare to fall in love, hehe." ”
Xian'er: "Zuo Youdao, you are evading the problem." That...... So, who do you think you will choose when you become an adult? ”
I know I'm going to die today, but I really don't know how to answer this question right now.
After Xian'er finished saying that, she kept staring at me closely, which made my mind even more confused.
Fortunately, just when I was about to be cornered, Yan Xiaotian ran over, and as soon as I saw him, I immediately shouted at him: "Yan Xiaotian, come out to run so late?" ”
Yan Xiaotian was just about to walk under the mountain bag, when he heard me call him, he immediately stopped, he waved at me, and said: "Alas, I found you, I went to your place just now and found that you were not there, Liang Houzai said that you may have come here to see the stars." Yo, the fairy is also there. ”
