Chapter 30: The Past

"It's late." Shen Yungui raised his head, saw Xu Yuan covering his eyes, and sighed, "Why do you say this kid is so unlucky." ”

Xia Beifeng looked up at the light coming out of the hole above his head, and the people on it seemed to make a hole and then changed places to continue, estimating that they would probably not be able to get out for a while.

"Let me tell you a story." Anyway, there was nothing to do, Xia Beifeng simply adjusted a relatively comfortable posture and pulled the rope connected to Xu Yuan twice, "Little ghost, didn't you say before that you wanted to know what happened here before?" ”

I don't want to know now, can I?

Xu Yuan covered his hot eyes and didn't dare to make a sound. Experience has taught him that it is useless to refuse at this time, and it is better to continue listening.

Xia Beifeng saw that Xu Yuan had no opinions, so he began to tell the story by himself.

"Once upon a time...... I don't know exactly how long it was, but there used to be a big river here, and a primitive tribe lived next to the river. The people of the tribe naturally worship the river god born in the river as the god of the tribe. That river god also accepted the people of the tribe and blessed this primitive tribe like an ordinary god......" Xia Beifeng glanced down at Xu Yuan, who was bowing his head below, and asked him in a loud voice: "Little ghost, are you listening?" ”

"Ah, listening." Xu Yuan was originally a little confused, but was startled by Xia Beifeng's shout, and immediately came back to his senses, "I'm a little sleepy and want to sleep." ”

"Don't sleep, listen to Xiaobei's story." Shen Yungui's brain was also dizzy. However, he has been a tomb robber for a long time, and he naturally knows that he must not be able to fall asleep at this time, so he cooperated very well with Xia Beifeng to scare Xu Yuan: "If you dare to sleep, Xiaobei will definitely beat you." ”

Xu Yuan immediately refreshed himself when he heard this, raised his head and stared at Xia Beifeng above, "I won't sleep, Brother Xia, you can talk about it, I'll listen." ”

"Hmm." Xia Beifeng listened to the roar of the electric drill overhead, and it was a little big, at this time he definitely didn't dare to be confused, so he could only cheer up and continue to tell Xu Yuan the story.

Then one day some of the tribe turned to other gods, and there may have been a great war between the two groups. But that group of people eventually split off, completely separated from the original primitive tribal form, and formed a feud, and never interacted with each other again. ”

Xia Beifeng looked up at the top of his head, and a new small hole appeared above, he leaned a little closer, felt the fresh air, and suddenly lifted his spirits.

"The original tribe continued to live in isolation, passed down from generation to generation under the protection of the river god, and the splintered tribe gradually merged with the outside world. Many years later, they were no different from the people outside, and some even got secular kingship and became kings. ”

Xu Yuan lowered his head again after listening, looking drowsy, Xia Beifeng didn't think about it, and directly kicked Xu Yuan's shoulder.

"Huh?" Xu Yuan was frightened again, he shook his head vigorously, looked up and blinked at Xia Beifeng, "I didn't sleep, I was listening." ”

Actually, he doesn't care if you're listening. He just wants to see you stay asleep.

Shen Yungui stayed at the bottom, a little bored, turning his head left and right to observe the stone walls around him.

"For a few years, it didn't rain in the area, and it could have been diverted. In short, there was a drought, and many people died, and the king at that time thought of the tribe that had been divided, and those who remained in the tribe were protected by the river god, so there would be no shortage of water. So the king sent people to ask them for help, but the river god refused. ”

Xia Beifeng counted more and more small holes above his head, and in those small holes, he vaguely saw the appearance of the person who was using an electric drill.

After the river god refused their request, the king died not long after, and was succeeded by his son-in-law...... Ah, it's the old man's past life with his head smashed. The new king and the son of the runaway chief, Song Yuanshan, conspired to slaughter the tribe and seal the river god with the resentment of the tribesmen. Diverting the water from the river saved a country in drought. The condition proposed by this king should be that he can give his wife to him or something, and he is also a heartless lord. ”

Xia Beifeng paused again when he said this, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes at the light above his head, and smiled.

"And then?" Maybe it was the fresh air above that penetrated through, Xu Yuan gradually recovered a little bit of energy, and he heard a little bit of meaning when he listened to the story, and saw that Xia Beifeng suddenly stopped, and hurriedly asked.

"People, they are all more greedy, at first they just sealed the river god and wanted water, but then they found out that they could make powerful monsters with the divine envoys raised by the river god, and after tasting the sweetness, they moved some other thoughts." Xia Beifeng took a puff of cigarette, and when he exhaled, he secretly sighed, "When they first used Geya to test the poison, they got it from the divine envoy, probably because they wanted Geya to command the divine envoy instead of the river god." ”

"Is that okay? Isn't it impossible for the living to be gods? Xu Yuan was completely intrigued by this story, and kept asking, "Why did they control the oracle and how?" ”

"It's not for Geya to be a god, it's just for her to be dyed with the breath of a river god, so that those gods will mistake her for a river god. This plan actually failed, otherwise they would not have started tossing and stuffing the souls of the living into the body of the divine envoy again. As for the reason, if you want to conquer others with these things, maybe you still want to dominate the Central Plains, it's just like a joke. ”

"Actually, it's not impossible." Xu Yuan tried to refute Xia Beifeng's words, "Those divine envoys are not something that ordinary people can deal with, if they really make a lot in the end, it is very possible to unify the Central Plains." ”

"Impossible."

Shen Yungui also wanted to learn Xia Beifeng's posture and lean on the stone wall, and soon found that this action was really not something ordinary people could do. After only holding on for a short while, I felt that my waist was beginning to protest, so I had to change back to my original position, holding my hands and feet on the stone wall to prevent myself from slipping.

"Little ghost, you underestimate our ancestors too much." Shen Yungui struggled to adjust his posture, wanting to make himself more relaxed, but it was very uncomfortable to move, so he simply gave up.

"Their methods of sealing the river gods were all learned from the Central Plains, do you know how many monsters there are in the Central Plains? In this kind of place, a river god can decide the fate of a country, but when have you ever heard that an emperor in the Central Plains was threatened by some ghost or god. ”

"Ah, is that so?" Xu Yuan didn't quite believe Shen Yungui's statement, and raised his head to Xia Beifeng for advice.

"Almost, the mountain gods and river gods of the Central Plains are often beaten by old things who don't know which mountain, and they basically have no dignity at all, that is, they are a worker."

Xia Beifeng bit his cigarette and raised his hand to push the stone on top of his head, which was already full of holes, although the stone was looser than before, it was not something that could be pushed now.

Looks like we'll have to wait a little longer.

Xia Beifeng frowned and glanced down, Xu Yuan and Shen Yungui would be much more energetic than just now, and it is estimated that there should be no big problem in holding on for a while.

"Then there was a disagreement between the two of them, and I don't know what it was, so I can only guess...... It may be that Geya is pregnant, and the king is reluctant, but Song Yuanshan is still so heartbroken, and he also made the child born by Geya into a scorpion. ”

"Ah......" Xu Yuan opened his mouth in surprise, and held back for a long time before he said a sentence: "This person is simply ...... Sick. ”

"He was sick, and he didn't know that the child was actually his. In fact, the scorpion he made out of a child should have become, but now I don't know where it has gone. In short, in the end, the two of them fought among themselves, killed each other for a while, and in the end it seemed that they were all poisoned by Geya, and Geya was also made by them to live in a hole in the ground, and there was nothing to catch some unlucky eggs passing by and feed the scorpions, until we came. ”

"If we don't come, we won't die." Xu Yuan sighed a little sadly: "Actually, we hurt her!" ”

"Don't be stupid to look at other little girls' beauty, don't forget that Geya is not a good master to get along with." Shen Yungui left and right the activist's head, and always felt that there seemed to be something on the back of his neck, which made him very itchy.

"This river god has been sealed by them for so many years, and now is the right time. Geya didn't know how to become something similar to the divine envoy, but now that the river god is dead, she will also die. ”

"That's it, Song Yuanshan probably put something here to store the soul of his previous life. That thing has been put away for so many years, and he has saved some things, but after Song Yuanshan recovered his memory, he found that he had given something else, so he thought he was invincible and dared to carry a gun in his flesh...... Hahaha...... "Xia Beifeng gloated and laughed, "It's unlucky, to be honest, if he doesn't do that, maybe he can really live a few years longer than ordinary people, but he has to think that he is invincible in the world, it's just funny." ”

Xu Yuan didn't know how to evaluate Song Yuanshan's behavior. I had to keep silent is Kim's principle, shut up and listen.

Xia Beifeng didn't continue, he shook Shen Yungui below with a flashlight, and asked him, "Are those things still there, where are they now?" ”

Shen Yungui remembered that there were a bunch of "friends" behind him as soon as he reminded him, and immediately looked down.

The "people" below seemed to be a little farther away from them just now, and they all looked up at the three of them, and their expressions seemed to be a little ...... Expect?

"Xiaobei ......" Shen Yungui heard the sound of his teeth chattering, tried to keep calm, and said flatly, "They are still there, I don't know why they haven't come up, why don't you throw something and try it." ”

"Oh."

Xia Beifeng tossed around by himself for a while, then ordered another piece of rune paper and threw it down.

Shen Yungui watched as the rune paper fluttered down, passing through the blurred bodies of the group of "people", and continued to fall until it was extinguished.

"It's useless, Xiaobei!" Shen Yungui shouted loudly: "Is this thing a fake and shoddy product of yours!" ”

"Uh......" Xia Beifeng carefully recalled the rune paper he had just thrown down, and explained calmly: "It seems that I made a mistake, and I just drew two strokes less in a hurry." ”

Have you always been painting on the spot? That's really hard for you!

Shen Yungui took a deep breath and was about to curse. But he saw a wisp of black fall in front of his eyes.

Shen Yungui looked at the wisp of black silk, and his mind spun around twice. There was a bad premonition.

More black strands hung down, covering his eyes.

Shen Yungui swallowed a mouthful of saliva and felt his head rise uncontrollably.

A pale girl above his head was smiling at him, and the tips of their noses were no more than three centimeters apart.

Xia Beifeng stretched out his hand and pushed the already crumbling stone, successfully pushing it away, and the light spilled into the narrow stone cave.

"Alright." Xia Beifeng climbed out of the hole, looked down at the bottom, and told them, "You can come up." ”

Xu Yuan immediately followed and climbed out. But because he hung in the hole for too long, his hands and feet were a little weak, and he was stuck at the entrance of the cave and rubbed upward.

"Why are you so useless?"

That being said, Xia Beifeng still dragged the rope to help Xu Yuan out.

"Ahh

A ghost cry from Shen Yungui came from below. The voice was so sharp that it seemed as if the person making the voice had exhausted all his might.

"What's wrong with you, letting the cat scratch?" Xia Beifeng took a lot of effort to get Xu Yuan out of the hole, and then looked down at the bottom.

"There's a ghost catching me." Shen Yungui raised his head in horror and said to Xia Beifeng. His face turned pale.
