I vaguely felt what Master meant, and I began to feel chills all over my body. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Those people, couldn't see you at the time?"

Master nodded: "It's not just that I can't see it, but at that time, it was like my whole person was illusory. They can't hear, they can't see me, they can't even feel my presence at all. ”

"That means they were actually looking for you, Master?"

Master nodded and continued, he had no clue at all, it happened too suddenly. The only thing that could have on his mind was, was he dead? He was just a ghost at the time.

But it doesn't make sense, because they didn't encounter any danger along the way. Besides, nothing unusual about anyone else. Why is he the only one in this situation?

When I heard this, I wondered, so I asked Master, could the problem be with the other people in the team?

Master shook his head and said, no, the problem is indeed on him. Because since he found out about this situation, he has noticed many things that are different from usual.

The more I listened, the more I felt infiltrated, but I couldn't help but wonder and ask Master, what is the difference?

"For example, it was pitch black in the tomb and I didn't have a torch in my hand, but I could see the situation in the tomb clearly. My eyes felt like they had suddenly become completely accustomed to the darkness, and I felt chills when I saw the fire again. There is another situation that I can't figure out. ”

Master rubbed his temples and continued, "If that I was indeed a ghost at that time, then it stands to reason that when I was close to the bonfire, there should be no shadow on the ground. But when I was standing by the campfire, the shadow on the ground was still there. I've always been puzzled by this. That's why I decided that I wasn't a ghost or anything like that. ”

"But if it's not a ghost, then they can't see you, or even feel you at all, how do you explain that?"

Master frowned and sighed, "I've been pondering this question for all these years. What happened to me at that time? ”

"That.. And then? What happened after you found out about it? "I thought to myself, since Master is no different from a normal person now, then something else must have happened at that time.

Master said, what happened later was even more strange, and it was at that time that he realized that there was something unusual about the guard.

At that time, almost everyone in their team went out to look for it, but the guards remained in the tomb and had no intention of leaving. Seeing that he was sitting motionless, the master casually asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”

The master asked completely casually at the time, because he knew that the guards couldn't hear at all.

But before the master could finish speaking, he suddenly heard the guard reply, "I'm waiting for you." ”

Hearing Master say this, I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked Master, "Didn't they hear you?" ”

Master said that he was also taken aback by this remark at that time, thinking that the man was talking to himself. But then he asked again, and he learned that the person could not only hear him, but also see him.

When I heard this, I was a little confused.

"In other words, at that time, he knew Master's situation at that time?"

Master nodded, and I didn't understand it even more, so I hurriedly asked, "Since he can see it, why don't you tell the others?" Isn't he your leader? ”

Master said, he didn't know what this person meant. Judging from the guard's expressions at the time, the master said that he seemed to be deliberately taking everyone else away. At that time, Master even wondered if this condition in his body could be caused by this person's hands and feet.

"Then Master, you didn't ask at that time?"

Master sighed and said, "I must have asked." But the man didn't talk much, and asking was equivalent to asking in vain. ”

I thought of the guard's ice-cube face, and my heart said too. Master must have asked more than once at that time, but it didn't work.

"Then what did he mean when he just said that he was waiting for you?"

This time, Master replied very clearly, "He took me to a place. I don't know the exact location, but it's not in the dungeon, and what impresses me the most is that there is a long bridge in that place. ”

After that, Master can't remember. All he remembered was that on the bridge, the guard had spoken to him. After that, Master didn't have the slightest impression. As for how the master came out of the underground palace at that time, he couldn't say clearly. He didn't even know when he had fallen asleep.

When Master woke up, he found himself lying on a hill outside the camp. At that time, it was already late, and the master was worried about the long nights and dreams, so he rushed back to Tanzhi County overnight. Because he was worried that those people would come to the door again, the master hid outside the city for a few months, and only after the yellow bandit **** was suppressed later, did the master return to Nanyang. During this period, he adopted me and Cassia Ming successively, and after a few years, Master began to return to his old business and opened a medical clinic in Nanyang.

And since Master came out of Guanziling that year, Master has been unable to figure out that experience, and the origin of those people in the camp and the guards is also unclear. In the following ten years, Master returned to Qiqi many times, but there was no trace of those people near Guanziling. Master secretly inquired about those people in the local area, but he didn't get any useful information.

It stands to reason that if those people are official thieves, then the time they have been stationed in Guanziling must not be too short. No matter how strict the news is blocked, there will always be a day when someone will find out. Besides, so many people died in the camp at that time, and most of them were local Yi people, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the locals, and it was impossible not to leave a trace of it.

However, Master investigated the local area many times, and the result was still the same. During that time, there were no clues other than the ornamentation on the tin boxes. Those people disappeared without a trace, as if they had evaporated from the world.

As for that kind of ornament, Master said that it does belong to the local Yelang royal culture, and the locals call it "Bamboo King Qing". The Bamboo King is the ancestor of the culture of Yelang Kingdom, and every year in the lunar month, the locals will worship the ancestor of the Bamboo King. According to local legends, "Bamboo King Qing" originated during the reign of King Duotong of the Wumi Yaro Dynasty. When "Zhuwang Qing" first appeared in the Yelang area, the neighboring state of Chu was the reign of King Wen of Chu.

"Then Master, you still want to go to that Ghost King Ridge this time?"

Master nodded and said, "That place, I have to go in again." ”

I felt that Master's determination to go to Ghost King Ridge this time should have something to do with that box, so I asked Master, "What exactly is in that box?" ”

Master didn't answer directly this time, but hesitated for a long time before he spoke, "I can't tell you exactly what's inside. These days, I have studied it for a long time, and I can only say that it is a direction. ”

"Directions?" As soon as I heard it, I was stunned.

"What do you mean? Northeast, South, West? ”

Master smiled helplessly: "This matter is far more complicated than you think, many people have been looking for decades without a clue, the reason is that there is a problem with their direction. The contents of the box are actually alluding to one direction. ”
