Chapter 34: The Corpse Under the Ancient Well
Old man Yan walked in front of Tian'er, his legs and feet were not as trembling as before, but looked very brisk, although he was old, but at this moment, after he recovered his original identity and true face, I found that this person looked like a crane with a childish face, if it weren't for gray hair and beard, he didn't look like a seventy or eighty-year-old person at all, and those eyes, he took off his disguise, those eyes were clear and transparent, exactly the same as the man with a baseball cap.
"His eyes," I said to myself. ,
"What did you say?" Bai Yun asked me in a low voice.
"Nothing, I just thought of something, but I'm not sure, I don't know"
Old man Yan glanced back at me, his expression was a little weird, but he didn't say anything, his eyes still stayed on Tian'er's body, "How old are you?" ”
Tian'er looked a little sad because of Uncle Kang's resignation, and when he heard Old Man Yan ask him, he barely raised a good face and said, "Nineteen years old, my birthday will be twenty next month." ”
Bai Yun and I looked at each other, nineteen years old, a boy of this age should be enjoying college life, but he is already walking in the shadow of life, never seeing the sun, and not daring to make friends with normal people.
Old man Yan smiled, "Child, don't follow them, they won't be sincere to you, Xia Jiling is in crisis, I won't stop you if you want to go, but you must take me." “
"What? Uncle, you are also going, you also said, there is a lot of crisis, fifty years ago, you and six other people came back without even touching the door, which saved a life and lived for half a life, why, don't you want to start and finish well? ”
Old man Yan listened to Bai Yun's words, not only did he not get angry, but asked with a smile: "Your name is Bai Yun, who are you Bai He?" ”
Bai Yun was stunned, and I was also stunned, Bai He, what is this?
Bai Yun was confused, "White crane? Is it the one that can fly? ”
Old man Yan smiled, "The Bai family of the Northern School is a famous family in Xi'an, although most of the wealth is ill-gotten gains, but the Bai family can be regarded as doing some things to accumulate virtue and do good, their master Bai Yunfan painted the world with one hand, and there was a master who gave the name Crane, why, don't you know?"
Bai Yun shook his head, but the old man Yan didn't speak, just sat silently on the side with the kang eaves, "I'll tell you, who am I, what's going on here, I'll talk about this later, now I can tell you that I won't harm you, I've been waiting here for fifty years, and finally waited for a few young people, I put the corpse under the thief hole, and those ants were also fed by me, the purpose is to let these ants help me protect this phoenix feather, and I want to wait for the person who can join me and have the ability to open the gate of Xia Jiling." ”
"Why are you so persistent, what is there in Xia Jiling that makes you people want to go in desperately, is it also for the dragon bone?"
Old man Yan looked at me with disdain on his face, "Keel, what is that?" It's just a far-fetched bone for future generations, and what we want is a stone of death. ”
I lowered my head and smiled bitterly, "Huangquan Immortal Sacrifice, this thing is really forgetful." ”
Old man Yan seemed surprised, "You know this? ”
I looked at him, "What is the Death Stone, that is called the Yellow Spring Sacrifice, it is an ancient book, it records the sacrifice of the Rama Wu tribe, the so-called death ceremony, but it is a cruel and bloody sacrifice ceremony, whether it can die or not, no one knows." ”
"No way, I don't believe it." Old man Yan seemed to have received some stimulation and began to yell.
I took out a string of rings hanging around my neck and showed him, "Seven Treasures of Soul Resurrection, you won't not know it, if you were one of those seven people back then, you must have been to Yunnan Golden Scale Star Palace, you must have seen the words on the stone tablet, although you don't understand the secret text of Huangquan, but the pictures should be able to understand, Soul Resurrection Seven Treasures, even if the name of these seven rings is the password to open the Huangquan Secret Scroll." ”
Old man Yan looked at me, "How do you know this, how do you know that there will be these things?" ”
Everything I experienced in those days flashed in my mind, and I really didn't want to mention it anymore, but I had to say, "You know the Xiao family, but you don't know the secrets of the Xiao family, the Xiao family is divided into three branches, the Xiao family is responsible for guarding the Huangquan Underworld, and the side family is engaged in business and politics, the reason why you don't know the relationship between the Huangquan Underworld Sacrifice and the Xiao family means that the Xiao family you are in contact with is a side branch, and I am a descendant." ”
I continued: "I didn't expect you to still be attached to the Yellow Springs Sacrifice, I can tell you that the Yellow Springs Sacrifice is just an ancient book about ancient priests, the form of sacrifice is cruel and bloody, it is absolutely impossible to perform, and the Rama Wu tribe may have disappeared from the world because they practiced too many sacrificial rituals and killed too much. ”
Tian'er looked dazed, but he still understood something, he thought about it, and suddenly asked me, "Dragon bone, Huangquan Immortal Sacrifice, this"
Bai Yun immediately tasted: "Tian'er, what do you want to say?" ”
Tian'er was a little hesitant, he looked at us, it seemed to be watching the change of expressions between the two of us, I knew that he was worried, so he said to him: "If you don't believe us, you can not say it, but, I want you to understand one thing, the fourth brother and Uncle Kang, are not what you see, and the boss you keep shouting, have you ever seen his true face, you are just a child raised by them, so they don't treat you as their own, otherwise, they won't leave you and go to Xia Jiling first, If they are willing to go first, it means that they don't believe in you. ”
Tian'er suddenly stood up, pointed at me and said, "It's you, you deliberately provoked the relationship between us, before I met you, there was nothing, but when I met you, they no longer believed me." ”
I admit that I was deliberately provocative, but
"Yan Tian, do you think they will leave you because of me? Don't forget, it was you who snatched the Huang family's mechanism design in the secret passage, until now, I can't face Huang Shuai, and I didn't take the initiative to find you, and why did they let you join us when they divided the room, and the three of them slept in the same room, I tell you, that's because the destination has arrived, and they don't need you anymore. Got it? ”
"Don't need it? What do you mean by that? ”
Actually, I don't know what to say, but I'm sure I'm right, that fourth brother is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface, and Uncle Kang, with a knife hidden in his smile, has countless tricks in his eyes, and that boss, not to mention, such three people, and Tian'er are people from two worlds at all.
