Chapter 19: The Emergence of Fate

"Grave keeper?" Shu Yao repeated suspiciously.

"In order for the Yin Illusion Array to keep running, not only must it have a large amount of Yin Qi, but it also needs the blessing of the tomb keeper to be able to continuously generate new powers, and the duty of the tomb keeper is to act as the eye of the Yin Illusion Array and the core of the launch," Huang Jun explained.

"So, how did they become grave keepers?" Shu Yao asked.

Huang Jun said: "In fact, the so-called tomb keepers are all living people captured from the outside world by the Yin Phantom Array according to the needs of the formation itself, these people are controlled by the Yin Phantom Array, and there is no way to leave the ancient tomb, that is, this ancient house, even if they die, their souls will turn into yin qi and become the nourishment of this big array, unless a replacement can be found." In fact, this is also very understandable, the ancient tomb will become an ancient house under the auspices of the Yin Illusion Array, but do you think, which ancient house will be uninhabited? This is the crux of the matter, so this ancient house must have an owner, and this owner is the tomb keeper, their role is to confuse the living outside, and to provide the most basic power for the operation of the entire array," Huang Jun said.

"I understand when you say this, that is, is the old man I saw the grave keeper?" Shu Yao said.

"Yes, that's it, in fact, not only the old man, but also the old man and the woman are also the grave keepers, and the georgie and the woman are the substitutes for the old man," Huang Jun said.

"In this way, there should be a good explanation for everything, that night, everything that Qiao Ji saw was transformed by the Yin Qi of the Great Array, and the reason why the old man wanted Qiao Ji to marry the old man is probably just a ritual, a ritual of the transfer of the duties of the tomb keeper, that is to say, after the completion of that ceremony, Qiao Ji officially replaced the old man as the tomb keeper, so understand, is it okay?" Shu Yao said.

"Yes, that's it, and I can also be sure that as grave keepers, their lives are not easy, not only are they not happy, but they are afraid that they will suffer unbelievable torture and pain, so each generation of grave keepers has been looking for someone who can replace them all their lives, so that they can be freed" Huang Jun said.

"In this way, then at the beginning, Qiao Ji lied to us, because if he said that when Qiao Ji and that woman were married, he may not have known the truth of the matter, but after so long, when we went in, Qiao Ji must have known the truth of the matter, that is to say, at that time, I am afraid that he already had the consciousness of being a tomb keeper" Shu Yao said.

"Yes, Qiao Ji just didn't tell you the truth, no, to be precise, he told part of the truth, at least I believe that his previous words were right, but the latter words were a bit flickering" Huang Jun said.

"So, why is Georgie lying to us? What the hell is he trying to do? Shu Yao asked puzzled.

"What does he want to do? Can't you guess what he wants to do? Huang Jun said.

"If you don't understand, can't you explain it?" Shu Yao said.

"Do you think, I just said, as a grave keeper, what is the greatest hope in life?" Huang Jundao.

"You mean?" Shu Yao suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but lose color on his face.

"If you can't guess now, then I can only say ......" Huang Jun smiled maliciously.

"Okay, I should have thought about it a long time ago, I just don't want to admit it, before Qiao Ji died, he said that he was relieved, it seems that Zaba and I have been selected by him as the grave keepers" Shu Yao said with a cloudy face.

"Yes, that's why I said this is your fate, you can't escape, even if you don't come back here for the rest of your life, I'm afraid that when you die one day, your body and soul will still come back here, and at that time, I'm afraid you can't change anything" Huang Jun nodded.

"So, what about Zaba, if I am the grave keeper, then Zaba must be too, why haven't I seen him for so many years?" Shu Yao said.

Huang Jun shook his head, "Not everyone has as good luck as you, if my guess is right, I'm afraid that Zaba is in this ancient house now, or rather, he has never left."

"No wonder I haven't seen him again for so many years," Shu Yao smiled bitterly.

"That's right, the whole thing was already doomed when you set foot in this ancient house," Huang Jun said.

"So, you've told me so much, what do you mean?" Shu Yao said uncertainly.

"Go in, face what happens next, and get rid of it completely, otherwise it will become a dream for your life," Huang Jun said.

"But......" Shu Yao wanted to say and stopped.

Huang Jun looked at Shu Yao, this partner who had gone all the way with him, through life and death, there was an indescribable emotion in his heart, he said in a rare serious tone: "Go in, no matter what, you will be fine, I'm here"

Shu Yao looked at Huang Jun, and then at the big dark room in the room that seemed to hide countless mysteries, and finally, made up his mind, nodded, and walked in.

Huang Jun didn't follow in, just outside, watching all this happen, the expression on his face was very calm, he couldn't see what he was thinking, but his hands clenched unconsciously, showing that his heart was not calm.

Shu Yao walked into the room, and at some point, there was a light in the room suddenly, and then Shu Yao saw Zaba, who stood in the room, looking at Shu Yao fixedly, as if he had known that Shu Yao was coming.

"Why are you here?" Shu Yao said.

Zaba looked at Shu Yao, his expression was indescribably strange, and he actually sighed and said, "You are here."

Shu Yao said: "You know I'm coming? ”

Zaba suddenly said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, things, bring them"

Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, faintly feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong, so he had to say, "What is it?" ”

"What's that? Do you really want to starve me to death? Eat, if I die, it won't do you any good," Zaba said.

Shu Yao's mind flashed, as if he had caught something, but immediately expelled the idea out of his mind, "Don't you want to go out?" ”

"Get out, will you let me out?" Zaba said viciously. Shu Yao and Zaba have known each other for so many years, and they have never seen such a demeanor.

"Let you out? Haven't I come here to get you out? Shu Yao said.

"You're going to get me out? Hmph, I still thought of me as a friend back then, I can't think of it, I can't think of it, I can't think of it, how you have treated me for so many years, you know it in your own heart" Zaba said.

"How shall I treat you? What do I do to you? I've never seen you all these years, I've traveled a lot of places, I've asked a lot of people to inquire, but I've never heard from you, how do I treat you? Shu Yao said inexplicably.

"You, you, what tricks do you want to play today? No, you're not right today, you didn't have so many words in the past" Zaba was suddenly stunned.

Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, "In the past? Have I seen you in the past? Since we parted seven years ago, we have met today, and we can't find you in the middle, why, are you talking about the past now? ”

Zaba looked shocked, as if he had thought of something, "Wait, you escaped that day?" ”

Shu Yao said impatiently: "Naturally, I escaped, not only did I escape, but over the years, I have been asking about your whereabouts everywhere outside, but there is no news at all, what happened to you?" ”

Zaba said: "If, if this is the case, then who has brought me food and watched over me all these years?" ”

"Food delivered to you? Watching over you? Who? Could it be that there is someone else in this ancient house? Shu Yao said.

"No, no, you're not right today, you must be trying to lie to me, you say, you say, what do you want to do?" Zaba's painful path.

"I lied to you? You, what do you see? Shu Yao suddenly found that Zaba became extremely angry, looking at himself, no, take a closer look, as if he was looking behind himself, how similar this scene is, isn't this the situation that he has dreamed of countless times in his dreams?

"You, you, you ......" Zaba's expression showed extreme panic, Shu Yao couldn't help but turn around, after turning around, she saw the most unforgettable scene in her life, a person, to be precise, a woman was standing behind her, looking at her coldly, but this woman's face, how to look familiar, suddenly, Shu Yao recognized, isn't this himself? Usually a person is both strange and familiar with their own appearance, and Shu Yao is naturally like this, she didn't react for a while, but after recognizing it at once, she only felt that the whole body was cold and rushed straight to her body, and for the first time she thought that her soul was out of her body, but as soon as this thought came out, she knew that it was impossible, but she was also a guardian herself, if her soul was abnormal, then how could she not notice it at all? Shu Yao thought that the evil spirit was transformed into his own appearance, but if it was a transformation, it would be too realistic, and Shu Yao couldn't find a flaw in her.

"You, who are you?" Shu Yao only felt that his whole body was creepy, and he almost didn't jump out.

But the woman did not speak, but there seemed to be a cold conversation in her expression, and she was carrying something in her hand, which could be seen to be some daily food and other things. seemed to turn a blind eye to Shu Yao's questioning.

Zaba looked at the strange phenomenon in front of him, he didn't know what to say, he didn't know what to do, for a while, none of the three of them spoke, no one did anything else, just looked at each other with different expressions, and the scene was as weird as it was.

"It's good to come back", suddenly another Shu Yao said, the voice seemed to come from the machine, word by word, without any ups and downs in tone.

After saying this, she glanced at Shu Yao meaningfully, and then walked towards Shu Yao step by step, although Shu Yao was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he was used to seeing big scenes, but at this moment, he couldn't stop the fear in his heart.

"What do you want to do? What exactly do you want to do? Shu Yao shouted.

Zaba seemed at a loss, he was confused by what was happening in front of him, and he didn't know which Shu Yao to help, but he had a hunch in his heart that after tonight, his life would change completely differently, and as for what such a change was, he was not sure at all.
