I licked my lips and tried to calm myself, the palace lord said that when he was exploring the labyrinth, he accidentally found this bloody handprint, and he didn't pay attention to it at first, but when he saw the handprint I left elsewhere, he realized what shocked him.

This is also the reason why Gong Jue has been silent since he came out of the cave, he tried to think the whole thing clearly, at least he could find a reasonable explanation, but Gong Jue said that he couldn't figure it out even if he racked his brains.

Why did the same mudra appear in the Vientiane Shrine hundreds of years apart?

Gong Jue felt that the matter was very important, and he was worried that there would be too many people to leak out, so he waited until everyone else had settled down before calling me and Tian Ji here.

"Are you supposed to ...... Have you really been here? Tian Ji looked at me in surprise, and subconsciously shrank next to the palace lord.

"Handprints from hundreds of years ago." I rubbed my swollen temples, and pointed to the bloody handprints on the rock wall. "You are stupid, Lu Qiao said that it was written very clearly in the document, in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Lu Qiao ruled over the elite of the East Factory for more than 100 years, and found the Vientiane Shrine, you count with your fingers, how long has it been since the eleventh year of Chongzhen."

"The eleventh year of Chongzhen is 1637...... "Tian Ji is really counting the time.

I slapped myself weakly on the head: "In 1638, more than three hundred and forty years ago, if I had been here before, more than three hundred years, I would have turned to ashes, and if I didn't die, I would soon become an old monster, look at it, open my eyes and take a good look, I look like a person who has lived for more than three hundred years?" ”

"Got it." Tian Ji suddenly raised his head and said solemnly.

"What do you know again?" I asked.

"You have taken medicine, immortality or something, or it is a medicine to rejuvenate the face, so you have lived until now, and you will not be old." Tian Ji replied seriously.

"You've just taken your medicine." I was almost screamed by Tian Ji's anger in the sky.

"Probably not." Gong Jue shook his head calmly and muttered to himself. "What kind of immortal inference is unrealistic, Chaoge didn't come out of thin air, the shopkeeper and the people in the pawnshop watched him grow up."

"Yes, if I really live for more than 300 years, then why can't I remember anything, and have you ever seen people who have lived for more than 300 years, and the younger they are?"

"Rejuvenation......

"Shut up." I reached out and pushed the field chicken away, but I didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Looking at the two incomprehensible handprints on the rock wall, I sighed heavily and said, for as long as I can remember, I have been dependent on my father for my life, I remember all the bits and pieces from childhood to the present, if it wasn't for the murder of my father when I was seven years old, I may still be in the mountains of western Sichuan.

In other words, if it weren't for the fact that I met Ye Jiuqing by accident, I probably wouldn't have known the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace or the Vientiane Divine Palace in my life, let alone learned the ability to visit tombs, that is to say, the life trajectory I should have had was completely related to these things, and there would never have been any intersection.

"I'm stupid, don't be angry if you don't say it right." Tian Ji still couldn't help it, and poked his head over again.

"What do you want to say?" I smiled helplessly.

"You don't know these things, but the shopkeeper knows, have you ever thought that in the vast sea of people, who of you doesn't encounter it, but you meet the shopkeeper." Tian Ji asked me tentatively. "You say, is it possible, there is something strange about this?"

"You mean that Chaoge's encounter with Shopkeeper Ye was arranged in advance?" Gong Jue thought for a moment and said.

"It's entirely possible, let's come all the way to the present, Chao Ge is obviously unusual, don't forget, those things we found in the dark room of Ye's shopkeeper's room, on the map, mark the place where Chao Ge was born." Tian Ji nodded hurriedly and said. "Shopkeeper Ye has hidden a lot of things from Chaoge, who knows if his adoption of Chaoge is part of it."

Gong Jue frowned and pondered for a long time, then looked up at me: "What Tian Ji said is not unreasonable." ”

"It's not possible." I don't even want to cut the nail on the head.

"Why?" The two of them asked in unison.

I saw my father killed, I was only seven years old at the time, and the only thought in my head was to escape, I didn't even know where I was going, and who could have guessed where I was going from.

In fact, I'm amazed to this day how I came out of the woods at the age of seven, running around completely aimlessly, thinking only about getting as far away as possible from the people who killed my father.

"I stayed in the mountains and forests for three months, I lived by eating wild grass and drinking stream water, when I came out of the mountains and forests, even I didn't know where I was, if according to Tian Ji, Ye Jiuqing calculated the time and place waiting for me, the sky and the earth are big, Ye Jiuqing can really guess where I will appear, then his ability is really big enough to reach the sky, why rob the tomb, what else is there in this world He doesn't know." I shook my head and said to them. "I met Ye Jiuqing purely by accident, as for the later things, what did he hide from me, I don't know, but it was really fate that I met Ye Jiuqing."

But Tian Ji still said one thing right, I don't seem to be as ordinary as I imagined, I looked down at the necklace I was wearing, maybe from the moment my father handed this thing to me, I was destined to be associated with the Moon Palace Nine Dragon Fang.

In fact, for a long time, I didn't speculate about what Ye Jiuqing was hiding from me, but kept trying to find out what my father was hiding.

A coffin bearer with five ghosts in the mountains, a tomb robber who rises out at night, and a soldier who once participated in the most secret experiments of the Red Dynasty.

No matter how much I think about it, I have never been able to connect these three completely different identities and backgrounds to the same person, until now my only conclusion is that my father may also know about the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and the necklace he gave me is probably not as simple as a feathered dragon pattern, but until now, I don't know the real purpose of this necklace.

But......

Even though everyone's things are twists and turns, I really don't understand what it has to do with me.

"We'll have to take care of this from the beginning." Tian Ji pointed to the bloody handprints on the rock wall and looked at me and said. "Starting from the distance in time, first of all, more than three hundred years ago, someone led more than 100 people into the Vientiane Divine Palace, this person is the mysterious person Lu Qiao called the lord, and this person looks exactly like you, and at the same time, the two of you have the same palm print, let's temporarily assume that it is just a coincidence, and then ......"

"Then on March 18, 1942, after an interval of three hundred years, Ling Xiao Pavilion saw you in the ancestral hall, no, for the time being, I can't be sure that the person is you, but at least it is a person who is exactly like you." Gong Jue took Tian Ji's words and continued. "The purpose of this person's appearance is for the Kunlun Golden Gate, more than forty years ago, he successfully entered the Kunlun Golden Gate with twelve people, including the people who are closely related to you now, your father, Ye Shopkeeper, what happened in the Kunlun Golden Gate at that time, there is no way to verify, but this person disappeared mysteriously again."

I rubbed my face vigorously, I didn't need them to continue, and I knew the rest of the story, the last time this person appeared was twenty years ago, he arrived in Dunhuang, and saw Ling Xiao Pavilion again, and with the help of this person, Ling Xiao Pavilion found the stone room outside the Jade Gate.

But the ending was quite bizarre, the person who entered was only one step away from the core of the stone chamber, but all of them were either dead or injured, Ling Xiao Pavilion even left a hand in the stone chamber, and at the same time, the person disappeared again.

"Of the cases we know of so far, this person has appeared a total of three times." The palace lord raised three fingers and said cautiously. "In the words described in Ling Xiao Pavilion's notes, the years have not left the slightest trace on this person's face, so it can be seen that when Ling Xiao Pavilion saw this person before and after, his appearance did not change at all, and the first time this person appeared, it was the portrait we saw in Lu Qiao's tomb, that is, there is a person who has lived until now, and has never aged age, so that when Ling Xiao Pavilion saw Chao Ge's face in the ward, he would be shocked, resulting in excessive fright and death."

"What does it have to do with me, it's really not me." I can't sigh and explain.

"I didn't say it was you, now it's a matter of facts, every time this person appears, it is related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, I assume that they are the same person, the first appearance was three hundred years ago, the location is in the Vientiane Divine Palace, the purpose should be to explore the secrets here." The palace lord interrupted me with a wave of his hand, and continued. "The second appearance is for Kunlun Jinque, the purpose is to put the bronze ball back, and the third time is the time when this person met again in Dunhuang and Lingxiao Pavilion, what is the purpose of this person's appearance?"

"Yes, if it's the same person, he has been here before, why should he appear in Dunhuang?" Tian Ji scratched his head and muttered to himself.

I followed the palace lord's train of thought, Ling Xiao Pavilion's notes were interrupted the day before he went to the stone room, and just a day later, the three people who traveled with Ling Xiao Pavilion, two died in the stone room, Ling Xiao Pavilion also broke a hand, and the most bizarre thing was that the core statue of the stone room was only a passage away from them, and they didn't even enter the statue's room.

"It's a block!" It dawned on me. "If the three appearances are the same person, in addition to the two corpses in the stone chamber with Ling Xiao Pavilion, there are also a large number of elite corpses of the East Factory, at that time, these people were cut off from behind, in order to hide the secrets of the stone chamber, coincidentally, the two corpses outside the passage were all shot from behind by guns at close range, also to extinguish the mouth!"

"This person, he doesn't want the secrets in the stone chamber to leak out, he ...... He's covering up the existence of the Vientiane Shrine! Tian Ji was taken aback.

"Then this person disappeared again, he seemed to have something to do with the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace every time he appeared, since three hundred years ago, he began to hibernate, every time the news of the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace appeared, this person appeared like a shadow, the last time was more than twenty years ago, and then ...... "Gong Jue's mouth slowly opened to look at me." Then I found the jade box in the ancient tomb of Chengdu, and the feather dragon underprint on it was once again implicated in the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and it was at that time that you ...... You've shown up! ”

"Obediently, you don't want to kill us yet." Tian Ji looked at me dumbfounded.

I finally raised my head to the sky and let out a long roar, covering my face with my hands, and slammed into the rock wall speechlessly, I found that this matter, I can't explain it, in fact, it is indeed too bizarre and tangled: "The Moon Palace Nine Dragons Boat is about my, more than 20 years ago, I was still in my mother's leg and stomach." ”

"Just kidding, look at you, I'm not that kind of person, to be honest, I didn't believe it at all, you have a relationship with those people, it's just that this thing is too unusual." Tian Ji pulled me back from the rock wall and said with a smile. "You're good, why do you have to look exactly like everyone else."

"Can you blame me for this, you ask my parents to go, who made me look like this." I replied helplessly.

"Having said that, why does this person do everything possible to hide the secret of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, this person has been to the Vientiane Divine Palace more than three hundred years ago, what should have been figured out by him a long time ago, why can't he let others know?" Tian Ji muttered to himself in confusion.

"No, this person is not the only one who knows the secrets of the Vientiane Shrine." Gong Jue suddenly raised his head and said.

"There is only this person, Lu Qiao's record is very clear, and in the end, only this person came out of the Vientiane Divine Palace, and none of the others who followed in survived." Tian Ji said.

"Lu Qiao's documents record that after he was transferred to the governor of Dongchang, there was only one thing he did with all his might, he was ordered to track down the whereabouts of a person." The palace lord walked back and forth a few steps and said to us. "Lu Qiao, they finally found the trace of this person, and they chased all the way to find the Vientiane Divine Palace, the people who entered the Vientiane Divine Palace three hundred years ago, in addition to the lord and more than 100 elites of the East Factory, there is also a person we have been ignorant of."

"Ling is waiting here......" I immediately reacted and said in surprise. The person Lu Qiao was tracking down was the one who really knew where the Vientiane Divine Palace was located, and he was also the person Ling Xuan had been waiting for. ”

"Yes, the lord followed the traces of this person to find the Vientiane Divine Palace, Lu Qiao's document did not mention the whereabouts of this person, it can be seen that in the Vientiane Divine Palace, the lord did not find this person at all, the focus is not the Vientiane Divine Palace at all, but this person!" The palace lord said thoughtfully. "This man is the real purpose of the lord, and ...... I'm afraid this person has always existed! ”

I understand what Gong Jue means, whenever there is news of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, this mysterious lord will appear, whether it is Kunlun Jinque or the Vientiane Divine Palace where we are now, he has been tracking down the whereabouts of this person.

He disguised the existence of the Vientiane Shrine, in fact, in order to disguise the existence of this person.

Things are more complicated than we imagined, it's not just that I want to find the enemy who killed my father, or find out the whereabouts of the Moon Palace Nine Dragon Boat, there seems to be a secret hidden in the intricate mystery that we have never touched.

And the most troublesome thing is that even if I don't want to admit it, but the facts are in front of me, this secret may be related to me, I have never been willing to say it in my mouth, but I have asked myself a thousand times in my heart.

Who am I!
