It is saying, "I will lead the way, I will lead the way, return, return, the heavens and the earth will be north, and from this to the east." ”

What's even more strange is that I can feel that its sound is very long, and the sound I hear in my ears is obviously a very short um-huh sound, but I feel that this sound is like a long wind passing through the canyon, extremely far away.

Uncle Shi bowed deeply to the old ghost again, and the old ghost moved his steps and took the first step towards the front.

With this step, the situation in the tomb changed dramatically.

I'm not saying that what I see with my eyes has changed, on the contrary, in my eyes, the tomb is still the same way, but in my mind, this straight tomb road has become a different way.

The path in my mind was not straight, it had a great arc, and every time I walked along it, I would encounter three or four side roads that led in different directions.

It was a very strange feeling, what I saw with my eyes was one thing, but what I was presenting in my head was another, but I knew what I was seeing, and I knew what the picture in my head was supposed to be.

It's as if I'm awake, my eyes are open, but my brain is half-asleep, half of my nerves are in reality, and the other half is dreaming.

I don't know why the picture in my mind is different from what my eyes see, I glanced at Liang Houzai, who was staring at the wall of the tomb at this time, judging from the pictures presented in my mind, a few meters further, it should be a fork in the road.

So I also paid attention to the wall of the tomb, and after walking a short distance, the tomb wall in front of me flickered briefly, and I immediately ran to look at it, but found that there was nothing unusual about the wall, it was just an ordinary wall.

I looked at Liang Houzai again, and Liang Houzai was also puzzled at this time.

At this time, Uncle Shi glanced back at me and shouted at me: "Keep up, don't run around, be careful of getting lost!" ”

He glared at me again and turned his head away in a huff.

This time, when Uncle Shi spoke, I could vaguely feel that his tone was weaker than before, and it didn't seem to be an easy thing for Uncle Shi to summon such a ghost thing from the banner.

The old ghost walked very slowly, and our group followed behind it, just walking slowly, during which I would look back at Wang Dafu from time to time, for fear that he would fall behind.

In fact, Wang Dafu probably knows more about the tomb of the Dragon King than my uncle, and my worries may be superfluous.

But the black shadow that appeared before made people feel at ease.

Half an hour later, Uncle Shi was already panting, and the old ghost he called "Granny Dui" stopped and let out a "uh-huh" sound from his throat.

After the voice came to my head, it was like this: "Southeast, don't return, don't return, go, go." ”

Its words always make people feel inexplicably wonderful, but the master seems to understand, and hurriedly salutes it, and the master slams his back to the ground, and after that, the old ghost's figure fades.

After the figure of the old ghost disappeared, the strange picture that appeared in my mind also disappeared, and my uncle straightened up, let out a long breath, and continued to walk forward.

After the old ghost disappeared, the purple-black glow briefly appeared on Shi Bo's body, and at the same time, a faint yin qi gushed out from Shi Bo's body and burrowed into the ground, and that yin qi penetrated so deep into the ground that it was extremely difficult to detect.

I can't calculate how long we walked, until when both of my legs were sour, on the wall not far from us, nine torches were lit up seven, and a hexagram shape was posed. ”

As he spoke, I could see his side face, and the expression on his face was very strange at that time, as if he was expecting something, but in addition to anticipation, there was a lot of worry in his eyes.

As we continued our march forward, the graveyard was finally not straight, and in front of us there were often forks in the road and twisted corners of the road.

Near one of the forks, we also found the bodies of two frogmen, the same ones we had seen earlier on the fourth floor of the tomb, all of which were crushed bones and coiled on the ground like two snakes.

The first to find these two bodies was naturally my uncle, and he was also taken aback when he saw the deaths of those two people.

Uncle Shi came to the corpse with a torch, looked at it carefully, and then reached out and opened the eyelids of one of the corpses.

I was following behind my uncle, and when the eyelids of the corpse were peeled open, I saw the pupils of that eye suddenly shrink.

His eyes are still light-sensitive, and he's still alive!

Uncle Shi's brows suddenly furrowed tightly, he greeted Wang Dafu, and Wang Dafu hurriedly ran over.

Uncle Shi pointed to the two corpses and said, "It's still alive." Give a good one, head start. ”

After saying that, Uncle Shi pulled me forward, and it was not until we were far away that two gunshots rang out behind us.

Along the way, I didn't want to talk to Uncle Shi, but at this time, I couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Shi, how do you know that the weakness of these frogmen is in the head?" ”

Uncle Shi's face was very heavy, and he thought for a while before he said to me: "Fifty years ago, I saw this kind of thing, their vitality is very tenacious, and their only weakness is their brain. ”

Notice that my uncle said that he had seen "this kind of thing" fifty years ago!

For Shi Bo, it seems that the two frogmen are not human beings at all, but some kind of alien appearance similar to humans. In fact, it wasn't just Shi Bo, when the gunshots rang out behind me, I didn't feel the slightest sadness for the death of those two people, but was faintly relieved.

I don't know if they are human or not, but deep down, I hope they are not, if they are human beings, and I don't think there is anything wrong with their deaths, then haven't I become as cheap as my teacher?

I really wanted to ask my uncle if they were human beings, but after a long time of hesitation, I finally didn't open my mouth.

I'm afraid that my master will tell me that those frogmen are human beings, but their vitality is tenacious, so in many cases, they look different from ordinary people.

I'm afraid that Uncle Shi will tell me again that human life is cheap.

Uncle Shi looked at me, he seemed to see through my thoughts at a glance, and said to me slowly: "They are not people, no one knows what they are, but they are definitely not people, they are definitely not. Hehe, you don't have to think too much, Zong Yuan must have told you over the years, 'human life is critical, life is heavy', he is right, human life is a thing, it is very valuable. But I'm right, in many cases, human life is incomparably cheap, not to mention that those two guys are not human. Okay, okay, don't overthink it. ”

From a very young age, I thought that Master could see through my thoughts, especially when I was thinking about something that was difficult for me to face, and Master would help me clear up my doubts without me opening my mouth.

Now I know that not only the master, but also the master.

There was a time when I thought that this was the common nature of a disciple of the upright line, and when I grew up and accepted an apprentice, I would become like my master and uncle, and I could see through the thoughts of my apprentice at a glance.

It was also many years later that I realized that Master and Uncle had indeed seen through my thoughts, but there was no such thing as mind reading, and the reason why Master and Uncle were able to know what I was thinking in a particular situation was because what I was going through, they had also experienced.

When they were my age, they also followed their ancestors in a similar tomb, or walked in a familiar old forest, and experienced experiences similar to mine. They probably had doubts, and the ancestor also solved their doubts like this.

Master always says "inheritance, inheritance", but in fact, the inheritance of the correct lineage, not only those knowledge and exercises, the most important inheritance, is such a word of mouth, many words are not found in the classics of the door, only exist in the minds of generations of disciples, only through a mouth, a pair of ears, from generation to generation.

As he spoke, he gently patted my back with his hand, as if to comfort me. Before, I thought Uncle Shi was disgusting, but now he gives me a very warm feeling.

My uncle is like this, he is full of hostility to the world he lives in, and the people who live with him, as if the whole world owes him. But for Master and me, Uncle Shi's feelings are very sincere.

For me and my master, the Soul Village is our root, but my uncle's feelings for the entire Soul Village are not deep, to be precise, he has always been very disgusted with the two veins of Tunmeng and Yuxian, but in his heart he can't let go of the upright line. And for him, Master and I are probably the only relatives of Master and Uncle, and the only people he trusts.

Of course, I only slowly saw these things after a long time, and in the first few hours of contact with my uncle, my understanding of my uncle was far from being so profound.

After a while, Uncle Shi was talking to himself again: "I'll be able to see Zong Yuan in a while, alas, he must be blocked out of the tomb door now." When I see him, what should I say, he won't still blame me for Youjun's affairs, right? Alas, what is it good to see him? ”

I said to my uncle, "Master shouldn't be concerned about what happened back then. ”

I know my master's character, and from the day he set out to find his master's whereabouts, Zhang Youjun's affairs have long been left behind by him. If it weren't for the fact that there was a Luo Youfang and Zhang Youjun refining living corpses not long ago, my master might never mention it again for the rest of his life.

But Uncle Shi didn't seem to hear me, and he still walked in front sullenly.

A moment later, we walked around the last corner, and on the opposite wall, six lit torches posed in the shape of the "Kun" hexagram.
