Liu Shangang immediately took a bunch of keys from his pocket and gave it to me: "Changed, this is the key to the new lock." ”

I gave Xian'er the set of keys and told her the exact location of the silver jewelry shop, she had been very fond of these shiny little things, and now that she had handed over the whole silver jewelry store to her, she immediately became excited.

I told Xian'er that the former clerk had just been fired by us, and now I need to recruit a new person and let her watch it, and now she is even more energetic, and she has been shouting that she has lived for so many years, and has read countless people, so she can't be wrong.

Seeing that it was getting late, I was so sleepy that I didn't talk to her anymore, and after Senior Brother Zhuang left, I hurried to sleep.

Liang Houzai and Li Liang came back at nine o'clock the next morning, when I was still sleeping, I heard a burst of laughter from outside the door, so I sat up in a daze, and after a few seconds, the door was opened, and Liang Houzai and Li Liang stood outside the door, both with unpretentious smiles on their faces.

They probably didn't expect us to live here, Liang Houzai turned sideways and said something to Li Liang, I hadn't fully woken up in my head, and I didn't hear what he said, until he turned around and looked into the house, I was surprised by his sentence "Why are you here?" "It's a complete awakening.

I rubbed my eyes and smiled at Houzai, "How are you now?" Can I go to the grave today? ”

Liang Houzai looked a little embarrassed: "Yes, these two days...... It's a waste of everyone's time. ”

At this time, Li Liang also entered the door, and when he saw me, he gave me a slightly grateful look.

I deliberately ignored the gratitude in his eyes, and just smiled at him politely and respectfully called "Grandpa Li".

Li Liang also smiled at me and said, "You go to the tomb this time, I won't mix it anymore, I can't do it now, and it will be a mess to go in with you." ”

I got out of my sleeping bag with two pieces of clothing in a haphazard manner, while Li Liang and Houzai hurriedly left the room and closed the door.

Why leave in a hurry? Because Xian'er and Luo Fei are also awake, after all, they are girls' homes, so we have to hurry up and leave to make room for them to clean up.

When I left the room with a toothbrush and a towel, Liu Shangang also hurriedly followed.

Liang Houzai and Li Liang were waiting for us outside, and my eyes swept between the two of them, and I also saw Senior Brother Feng walking towards us with two large bags of fried dough sticks.

As soon as Senior Brother Feng saw me, he shouted at me with a smile: "The fritters have been left in my car for an hour, and they are no longer crispy, but fortunately, the soy milk is still hot." ”

I couldn't help but laugh when I saw Senior Brother Feng wearing big pants and flip-flops.

Speaking of which, since Senior Brother Feng was transferred to a prefecture-level city, I have rarely seen him, and the last time I acted with him was the one many years ago when I suppressed the corpses at the bottom of the mass grave mountain.

Senior Brother Feng came to me, looked at the people around him, and said, "We are all the members of this operation, right?" ”

Li Liang said: "I won't follow, Xing Wei will go down with you, it is estimated that he will have to bring two more helpers." ”

While Li Liang was speaking, Liang Houzai took over the soy milk and fritters.

There happened to be a pool next to the tin room, and Liu Shangang and I leaned on the pool to wash, while washing, while listening to Li Liang explain the situation in the tomb.

In fact, the last time they went to the tomb, they didn't walk deeply, Li Liang said, he doesn't know much about what kind of structure the tomb is, only knows that this tomb is at least 3,000 years old, as for the words in the tomb, they also come from an ancient clan that has been extinct 3,000 years ago - the female stork.

When I first heard the word "female stork", I first felt familiar, and after a second or two, I immediately looked back at Liang Houzai, who also looked at me with very surprised eyes.

In the bronze tomb of the Huai River, we found a bronze medal engraved with a tiger-footed beast head bird, the kind of upside-down strange bird, which is the totem of the female stork clan.

This ancient tribe that first appeared in the Kunlun Mountains first appeared their footprints in the middle of the Huai River Valley, and now their footprints have appeared in Shandong.

How did such a backward clan appear in these two places across such a long distance.

Liang Houzai asked Li Liang: "Master, have you heard of the female stork clan before?" ”

"Of course I've heard of it," Li Liang said: "Although this clan is mysterious, their attainments in witchcraft are very high, and a large part of the ancient witchcraft of our Yelang country can be said to be inherited from the female stork clan." It is said that the ancestors of this clan came from two major tribes in ancient times: Nuwa and Wuxian, but no one knows what kind of purpose these two major tribes originally wanted to be close to each other, nor do they know why the descendants of the relatives left the original tribe and went to the Kunlun Mountains to live in seclusion. ”

Liang Houzai: "But Master, there is no record of the female stork clan in the two books you gave me at the beginning, since most of the witchcraft in our vein is inherited from them......"

Before Liang Houzai finished speaking, Li Liang showed an embarrassed expression, and said, "Actually, I originally prepared three very thick books, and I planned to mail them to you together." But these three books are too thick and heavy, and I didn't have enough money when I sent the package, so I picked two more important ones and sent them to you. As you know, I couldn't contact you when I encountered those things later, and the rest of the book never had a chance to be sent. ”

Because Li Liang didn't bring enough money when he sent the package, Liang Houzai lost a small part of his inheritance.

I don't know if that's the right way to understand, but if you lose your inheritance for this reason, it's definitely a painful thing.

It's a pity, sadness, helplessness, embarrassment, I think these words are not enough to characterize this matter, or the word "egg pain" is the most appropriate.

Liang Houzai pursed his lips, but didn't say anything.

Li Liang continued to say to Liang Houzai: "The text of the female stork is very similar to the text of the ancient Yelang Kingdom, you can understand it at a glance, after going to the tomb, you must read those words carefully, the content on it is very important." Also, pay attention to the stone bricks in the tomb, some of the bricks are hollow, don't press bricks like that, it is very likely that the trigger of the mechanism. ”

Liang Houzai scratched his scalp: "Are there a lot of mechanisms in it?" ”

Li Liang: "There should be a lot, but in that tomb, the most troublesome thing is not the mechanism, but the cave god." I can't say a word or two anyway, so you better go in and see for yourself. ”

After I washed up briefly, I took the breakfast from Liang Houzai's hand, and just as Xian'er and Luo Fei had already come out of the house, I took the fritters and soy milk to the house to eat.

Hou Zai and Li Liang had breakfast as early as when they came back, and the two of them casually found Ma Zha to sit nearby, while Senior Brother Feng leaned next to me and explained to me the purpose of going to the tomb this time.

I really can't be interested in the "precautions" in his mouth, and it's not once or twice that I go to the tomb, I know what to pay attention to, but Senior Brother Feng still treats me as a child, chattering endlessly.

I have forgotten what he told me to pay attention to, only the purpose of this visit.

Senior Brother Feng said that he carefully checked the feng shui pattern on this side of Changshan Street some time ago, and could determine that there is a very large "wind cave" in the tomb. At the same time, Senior Brother Feng also said that once the things in the wind tunnel are suppressed, the tomb is very likely to collapse.

I asked Brother Feng what the wind tunnel was, and Brother Feng said that it could be a very deep cave, or it could be a very long tunnel, and it was always a passage for the wind, and the wind was very strong.

In addition to the wind tunnel, Senior Brother Feng speculated that there should be a large amount of dry sand in the tomb, that is, dry sand.

I went down to the tomb with David once before, and the moisture inside was very heavy, where did the dry sand come from?

Senior Brother Feng just said that if there was not a lot of dry sand in the tomb, the feng shui on this side of Changshan Street would not have become what it is now, and as for why there was dry sand in the damp tomb, he couldn't say clearly.

As soon as I finished eating, Dawei brought Liu Daxi and Mao Xiaoxi over, they had already eaten, and this time they came here to ask me when I would act.

"Pack up your things, let's go to the grave." I wiped my mouth and said this to Dawei.

Dawei was also very good, and immediately took Liu Daxi and Mao Xiaoxi to the side of the tomb, Liu Shangang and I quickly counted the supplies, called Liang Houzai and Senior Brother Feng, and gathered with Dawei at the entrance of the tomb.

Senior Brother Feng, Liang Houzai, Liu Shangang, Dawei, plus Liu Daxi, Mao Xiaoxi and me, a total of seven people went to the tomb, Senior Brother Feng followed in mainly to investigate the feng shui pattern in the tomb, Liang Houzai and I still do our old business, Liu Shangang and Dawei The four of them all went to the tomb with guns.

When we were about to enter the tomb, Xian'er and Luo Fei had just finished washing up and walked towards the hut.

Luo Fei would glance at us from time to time, with a little worry in his eyes, while Xian'er seemed to be fine, as if she didn't care about the situation in the tomb at all.

In fact, I know that the reason why Luo Fei is worried is mainly because he is worried about Senior Brother Feng and them. This time, I went to the tomb with Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang, no matter what kind of danger we encountered, at least the three of us can come out alive, as long as we don't have an accident, the death or life of the others has nothing to do with Xian'er.

In fact, what I am most worried about now is that Xian'er and Luo Fei will follow us and secretly go to the tomb, so I specially instructed Senior Brother Zhuang to take care of them and not let them follow.

Senior Brother Zhuang pinched his fingers and calculated for a while, and said to me with a smile: "Don't worry, the two of them won't go down." ”

This sentence can be regarded as dispelling the doubts in my heart.

At ten o'clock, the scorching sun made the small city scorching again, Liu Shangang counted the supplies for the last time, and we divided into two teams and went down to the grave in turn.

I, Liang Houzai, and Liu Shangang are in a team of three, and the rest are in a team.

We are in the front, and our main responsibilities are to fight the front station, wade mines, and eliminate dangers, while Dawei and the two elite soldiers he brought with him have the main task of protecting Senior Brother Feng.

This is the suggestion of Senior Brother Zhuang, who said that if they are divided into two teams like this, the process of visiting the tomb will be smoother.

Sometimes I was really curious about what the lineage of Tunmeng was like, and some of the decisions they made seemed to me to be completely incomprehensible.

Although we were divided into two teams, the distance between us was no more than five meters. When Senior Brother Feng and the others walked, I could hear their footsteps very clearly.

As I climbed down the soft ladder, I kept an eye on Liang Houzai's condition, but fortunately, he didn't pass out like he did when he was zipline, and although the whole process was a little difficult, he still managed to reach the ground smoothly.

Got down the soft ladder, it was a large relief, Liang Houzai said, he didn't know what the animals on the reliefs were, since he was a child, he had never seen such a thing.

Without Xian'er's fox fire lantern, we could only move forward with flashlights, and after stepping over the large reliefs, and passing through the dark area nearly 100 meters long, we once again returned to the huge stone wall engraved with ancient characters.

I shook the flashlight on the stone wall and asked, "Can you understand these words?" ”
