"Why did Tu Shuang ask us to meet in three days?" Tian Ji asked suddenly.

"Tu Shuang obviously knows about the Qingqiu Jade Ruins, and he knows far more than us, but in front of us, he pretended to be stupid, presumably planning to talk to us in detail in three days." I say.

"Then this matter is even more wrong, the clues we have now about the Qingqiu Jade Ruins, Tu Shuang knows it, he doesn't need us at all, why do you want to talk to us in detail?" Xue Xinrou said vigilantly.

"I've also thought about this, Tu Shuang's Na Zhiqiu brought us here, just to find out our truth and see how much we know, if we are useless, he will naturally not see us." I took a deep breath and couldn't figure it out. "He also invited to meet, which shows that we have something that he has to rely on, but what is there, I have never figured it out."

We brought Ye Zhiqiu back to Ying Zhiqiu, and learned that it was Ye Jiuqing's daughter, Ying Zhiyuan was overjoyed, saying that the last time we saw Ye Zhiqiu was a baby in swaddling clothes, this time she has become a slim girl.

Ye Zhiqiu was still a little ignorant, but she was a polite lady in front of Ying Zhiyuan, and when we were alone, she stared at Tian Ji back and forth for a long time, probably because she didn't understand why Ying Cheng Yuan, who was rich in the world, had such a wooden son as Tian Ji.

After dinner, we sat in the courtyard, Ye Zhiqiu and Xue Xinrou had met, and the two hit it off at first sight and were in the same major, and they seemed to be very close to each other.

"Where's my sister?" Ye Zhiqiu suddenly turned around and asked.

We were all stunned, Ye Zhiqiu was asking Ling Zhihan, we hadn't forgotten her, but no one wanted anything that happened in the Tijie Stone Palace, and the last thing we wanted to face was me.

At the last moment, I let go of her hand and watched Ling Zhihan fall into the abyss in my sight, I still can't forget her last relieved look, she may not blame me, but for me, this is a lifetime of lingering guilt.

"Zhihan she ......"

"I'll say it myself." I interrupted the field chicken, presumably he didn't want me to go through it again.

I told her everything that had happened since I left Ye Zhiqiu, and Ye Zhiqiu didn't blame or complain this time, and sat beside me obediently, just like when I was a child, leaning his head on my shoulder.

"I know it's hard for you, it's not a choice at all, it's a torment, no matter what decision you make, the one who hurts the most is you." Ye Zhiqiu said with relief.

"I'd rather stay in the Jieshi Golden Palace." I sighed, my voice dimmed.

"Sometimes it's the hardest thing to live, you don't have to blame yourself, you have to make a choice." Xue Xinrou said.

"Forget it, don't talk about what has passed, the deceased has wished that Zhihan can rest in peace, what she hasn't done, we will help her do it." Tian Ji took a deep breath and smiled hard, trying to calm the atmosphere.

"By the way, how did you end up in Guanzhong, and how did you fall into the hands of Tu Shuang?" I came back to my senses and asked Ye Zhiqiu on my shoulder.

"After you left, I returned to the Institute of Archaeology, and I just received a notice from Elder Wen asking me to rush to Jiangxi." Ye Zhiqiu replied straightly.

"Wen Ru......" I haven't heard this name for a long time, and since I came out of the Temple of the Ancestral God, there has been no news about Wen Ru. What has he been doing all this time? ”

Ye Zhiqiu suddenly smiled and said to us very suspiciously: "When I met Elder Wen, the first thing he said was to ask what you were doing during this time, especially about you. ”

Coming out of the Temple of the Ancestral God, everyone lost their memory, but he and I clearly remembered everything that happened in the Temple of the Ancestral God, and this person felt that he was hiding too many secrets since we knew him.

Why did I blow up the underground altar of the Aoki River, why I was safe and sound if I was attacked at the Temple of the Ancestral God, why I was able to keep my memories intact, and so on, all of these things lingered in my mind, and I have never found the answer.

"Since you went to Jiangxi, why did you appear in Guanzhong again?" The palace lord on the opposite side asked seriously.

"This matter starts with a ruin found in Jiangxi, the last time I was separated from Mr. Wen was in Shale, Yunnan, he said that he was going to return to Jiangxi and continue to study the ruins found when he was decentralized, and I immediately set off to Jiangxi after receiving Mr. Wen's notice."

Ye Zhiqiu told us in great detail while reminiscing, after she arrived in Jiangxi, Wen Ru had organized the local archaeological institute to re-excavate the ruins, but because the time span was too large and the damage was serious, no major discoveries were made.

The archaeological work came to a standstill, but at this time, I received news that in Leigong Mountain, Jiangxi, because of the landslide, there was a cemetery site, and the mudslide covered the mausoleum and indirectly preserved the integrity of the cemetery.

"The tomb bricks that were delivered to us, after being cleaned and restored, shocked Boss Wen with the patterns and ornaments on them." The more Ye Zhiqiu spoke, the more excited he became.

"What's the ornament on it?" I asked.

"Do you remember Liao Kai's bronze mask?" Ye Zhiqiu asked.

Of course, we remember that the craft of the bronze mask is unique to the Miao people, the Miao people believe in animism, worship nature, worship ancestors, the pattern on the bronze mask is a sacrificial pattern of the ancient Miao people, the Miao people worship ghosts and gods, and witchcraft prevails.

In the long history of Miao Jiang, witchcraft occupies an extremely important position, and the Miao people believe in witchcraft, mainly yin, divination, divine judgment, ghost sacrifice and now smell the color of the Gu arts.

In the belief of the Miao people, witchcraft is actually the most devout belief in ghosts and gods, and those who master witchcraft are called priests, and have an extremely high status in Miao Xinjiang.

In addition to being familiar with the methods of sacrifice, most of these priests can also tell the genealogy of their own clan, the major historical events and the routes of the migration sources, and are familiar with various myths and legends, ancient songs and folk tales.

The priest is an important inheritor of Miao culture, and the pattern on that mask is a kind of sacrificial totem in the early Miao people, and most importantly, that mask can be folded and overlapped together, and a complete three-eyed unicorn pattern will appear.

"The ornamentation on the tomb bricks is exactly the same as on the mask, and the time of the cemetery is roughly before the Western Jin Dynasty." Ye Zhiqiu said.

Western Jin Dynasty!

When we heard about this period, we raised our heads almost at the same time, for us, this is a completely blank period, but in our inference, the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace should have appeared during this period of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the relative twelve ancestral gods should also leave traces.

"Did you find anything in the tomb?" I asked eagerly.

Ye Zhiqiu nodded, and told us excitedly that Wen Ru and the archaeological team immediately set off to Lei Gong Mountain, and quickly cleaned up the mudslide, everything in the tomb was well preserved, and after research, this ancient tomb belonged to a priest with a very high status.

"But not the priests of the Hmong." Ye Zhiqiu's eyes were shining when he said this.

"Not Miao Jiang's? Whose priest is that? Xue Xinrou asked curiously.

"Jiuli people!" Ye Zhiqiu replied.

The Miao people are descendants of Jiuli, and there have been several important migrations in history, including records of migration to Jiangxi, but about the ancestors of Jiuli, except for seeing them once in Baiyan, they have really not heard of them in other places.

"The cultural relics found in the tomb have a long history, but the roots of culture are far older than those of the Miao people, and there is a completely independent system in terms of religion, which plays a very important role in the study of the Jiuli people." Ye Zhiqiu said unhurriedly.

"The Jiuli people began to disperse after the defeat, and some of them were enslaved as Li people, but some migrated to other places, and the Jiuli priest tomb found in Jiangxi, has it been inferred what kind of race?" Xue Xinrou asked seriously.

"It can't be the Jiuli ancestors who dispersed to Jiangxi after the defeat." I shook my head in affirmative.

"Why?" Xue Xinrou was puzzled.

"The battle of the deer, the Yellow Emperor pacified the world, the ancestors of Jiuli began to flee, which also involves unknown secrets, the twelve ancestral gods made a huge bronze Chiyou, used to call and solidify the Jiuli people, under the leadership of the bronze Chiyou, most of the Jiuli people went deep into the mountains of Yunnan, and built the temple of the ancestral gods inside." I explained to Xue Xinrou seriously. "In the minds of the Jiuli people, the Temple of the Ancestral God is a holy place, and even Chiyou guards it, but in the Qin Dynasty, the twelve ancestral gods resting in the Temple of the Ancestral God suddenly woke up."

"At the same time, the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, which has been disappearing, also appeared in the Qin Dynasty, and after the Twelve Ancestral Gods left the temple, it is believed that some of the ancestors of Jiuli followed." Gong Jue should have understood what I meant and explained to Xue Xinrou. "The priest tomb found in Jiangxi has the unique ornamentation of the ancestral gods, which shows that the owner of this tomb is not the Jiuli people who have been staying in Jiangxi, but followed the twelve ancestral gods from the holy land to Jiangxi."

"We originally thought that we had only found the tomb of a priest of Jiuli, but with the archaeological excavation, the cultural relics found in the tomb not only had strange ornaments on it, but also found murals in the tomb, as well as some remnants of the text. Ye Zhiqiu raised two fingers in front of us. "The discovery in this tomb has revealed to us two unknown secrets of the Jiuli people in Jiangxi."

"What's the secret?" We all looked at Ye Zhiqiu.

"The text found in the priest's tomb mentions that there is a rumored holy city of the Jiuli tribe somewhere in Jiangxi."

"Holy City?" I frowned. "What holy city?"

"The most surprising thing is that this holy city also has a name, which is specially recorded in the fragmented text in the tomb, and the ancestors of Jiuli called this holy place the Demon Kingdom." Ye Zhiqiu looked at us and said.
