Strangers' Residence

The Magic Sound Swamp

The north-south craftsman competition, which caused a stir in the capital, ended in a draw, as if the heavy smoke suddenly dissipated, and it was over.

But the mysterious and abnormal Kunlun Mountain has left me with endless nightmares, as if I am still trapped in a cycle of nightmares and have never left.

Tianyu's disappearance hit me very hard, although she was swept into the black wormhole whirlpool, but I firmly believe that she is only missing, not dead, one day, we can meet again and continue to write fate.

The fat man thought that I was talking about a dream, that I was too badly hit and refused to face the reality, and inevitably relieved me very worriedly for a long time.

When I returned to the capital, I sat in the rainy house on the first day, cruelly confronting myself with reality.

After two days of not eating, drinking, or sleeping, I finally figured it out. If you believe that Tianyu is not dead, but just missing, then you must take action and travel all over the world to find her.

So I made up my mind and prepared to pack my bags and go. As a result, a guest suddenly came to visit, and my original plan was disrupted.

The Zha family suddenly sent someone and said that they were going to mourn the old man and the fifth master in three days. Originally, the Cha family planned to keep the funeral secret, but they felt that they must not be able to contain the fire in the paper, so they decided to mourn the uncle and nephew together, claiming that they had died in a car accident together, and also got a few eyewitnesses. Spread the rumors and try to make them look like they're real.

The day of the funeral is set. The death factor was also fooled, but only the body of the old man was returned safely. And when the fifth master was still alive, he was caught in the black whirlpool, and he couldn't see anyone alive or dead. The Zha family is not as optimistic as me, thinking that the fifth master of Zha will not be able to appear alive in the black vortex of the wormhole. Just mourned the uncle and nephew together, and it can also hide people's eyes.

I also learned from the fat man that another piece of news that tripped my feet was that the Master in the United States would be back tomorrow. In order to give the funeral to the old man, Tianyu, who was still unconscious, was temporarily taken care of by the female master of the smoke man.

My heart, after thinking through it, came to the spirit, and thought that Tianyu could come back alive, so I had nothing to do, and began to clean up Tianyu's room. The result was inadvertently, in the corner of the wall in front of the bed. A gray package was found, with a thick layer of ash on it, and cobwebs, and it was estimated that Tianyu was in a hurry. Forget jì put the burden in the cabinet. So I patted the dust off the baggage, curiously brought it to the table, and unwrapped it.

I was blown away by what was inside. It turned out to be a mirror box, which was originally from the Western Han Dynasty tomb group. The yellow-green lead-glazed pottery that was brought out was "奁". I remember putting it in Master's secret room, but for some reason it was in the rainy room. And it's clearly opened. I was surprised to reach out and open the box, and found that there were three and a half pieces of jade inside, from the appearance, half of the jade pieces were wearing a red rope on it, and the surface was round and smooth, obviously worn by people for a long time.

I can't help but think of the story Tianyu told when she first told her life experience, as if her master gave her half a jade pendant before he died, saying that it was closely related to her fate, and it was precisely because of this that she found a strange place according to some clues.

Suddenly I figured out something, Tianyu was disguised as a white snake with oily hair and powder, just to get the jade pendant I brought out from the tomb of King Xiang, but I bought the jade gui by mistake, and later found out that it was wrong, so I disguised myself again as the aunt of the door curtain, and came to the residence of the stranger, and the ultimate goal was to fight the idea of these jade pieces.

And I also have a bolder speculation, that is, the jade pieces mentioned in the last words of the fifth master, it may be these jade pieces. I remembered that when I was in the Tang Ancient Evil Tomb, I once heard a verse in a dream, which seemed to say that there were seven and a half pieces of jade pieces, if it was to refer to these jade pieces, then I already have three and a half pieces in my hand, and the other three pieces were taken by the fifth master, and now they are in Huang Tianming's hands, but there is still one piece that I don't know where?

I went to Master's secret room to look for the scroll of ancient paintings brought out of the tombs of the Han Dynasty in Shandong, in order to check the verses on it. As a result, I accidentally saw the secret color porcelain box of the Yue kiln brought out from the ancient evil tomb of the Tang Dynasty in the northeast. I suddenly remembered that in that unusually empty, but incomparably ornate mural chamber, there was a thousand years ago me, who seemed to be exactly the same as the characters painted on the ancient scrolls, could there be some kind of related connection? I even boldly speculated that the piece of jade was in the secret color porcelain box of the Yue kiln with a three-hole secret lock.

But I was not convinced and said, "No!" How could such a coincidence occur?

Now the only one in the capital who can open the secret color porcelain box Zhuge locksmith king, suddenly very mysteriously disappeared without a trace, if you want to open the porcelain box, it seems that you have to go to the field to find skilled craftsmen.

I suddenly realized that there were a lot of things to do, and I felt as if I was too busy, but for some reason, my heart was empty, very lost and unsatisfactory.

In a trance, I didn't know how to spend two or three days, the master came back, and the funeral ceremony of the old man also began.

The first time I wore a suit was at a funeral. The funeral of the old man was very grand and grand, and among the people who participated in the worship, there were many well-known successful people from all walks of life, and even saw a few local officials with familiar faces.

The family is a big business and a lot of talents. But in the old man's generation, he is the eldest, although he is single and has no heirs. But he has a lot of brothers, and there are naturally many nephews with the surname Cha below. The fifth master is the eldest son of the eldest brother of the old man, all of whom are deeply loved and are the pearls of the old man's generation. But now the pillars of the Zha family, the uncle and nephew, are very unfortunate to fold together in the mysterious Kunlun Mountain.

The old father of the fifth master lost his siblings and his beloved son all of a sudden, and he was in a hurry and became ill. The Zha family is now presided over by the youngest nephew of the old man, Zha Laoqi.

Generally everyone calls the old seven the old man, he is the fifth master of the house is a brother of a sibling, the family is in their generation, seven cousins, the old seven is the youngest one, the age of me is almost the same, so far unmarried, dedicated to the Tao, has gone to the mountains many times to become a monk and enlightenment, were picked up by the Zha family. Zha Lao Qi wore a white coat and coat all day long, with a graceful demeanor, very handsome appearance, and looked very young, standing with me, they all said that we seemed to be brothers. However, there are many similarities between our appearances. At first glance, I felt like I was looking in a mirror.

In the generation of the Zha family in the fifth master, except for the fifth master, almost no one has set foot in the industry. After all, the Cha family is a big business, and there is no need for everyone to be exposed to this dangerous business that has half of their feet in the coffin. However, among the younger generations of the Cha family, there is a very bold girl, twenty years old, who loves to go down to the tomb and fight, and loves to deal with the dead, called Zha Ling'er. She is the only female heir among the old and young generations of the Zha family, and her temper is very arrogant and arrogant, her eyes are above the top, and there is no one in her eyes.

The arrangement of the old mourning hall is very solemn, compared with the simple tent when it was in Kunlun Mountain, it can be said that it is a world of difference. At the beginning, I and the fifth master of Zha guarded the mourning hall for the old man for the night of the funeral, recalling the past, my heart was like a big stone blocked, and I was almost out of breath. After I put on a stick of incense, I felt dizzy and very unconscious, I don't know if it was choked by the incense candle or because of the tide of mourning. His body was a little uncontrollable, and he walked out of the mourning hall slowly, and came to the long table in the lounge room outside, and fell on the sofa, and then he didn't even know how to return home.

When I woke up, the fat man told me what happened after I fell into a coma, "You staggered out of the mourning hall, which aroused the ideas of many people, and Zha Laoqi immediately asked someone to send you back, I said no trouble, so I took you back myself, and the master continued to stay in the mourning hall to keep vigil to mourn." ”

Master and Old Man Cha have a deep relationship, Old Man Cha left suddenly, Master should also be very sad in his heart, at this time I should have been by his side, but I fainted uncompetitively, and it was really useless to keep scolding myself in my heart.

When the fat man saw my annoyed and lonely look, he first sighed, and then said to me in a rare and very sincere tone: "Lao Zheng, you just love to take everything on your own body too much, and there will be too many things in your heart, and you will blame yourself too deeply, and your body will not be able to bear it." ”

Having lost so many relatives and comrades-in-arms, I feel uncomfortable and blamed myself, if I had been more capable, maybe it would not be the situation I am in now. I don't blame it, but I just feel like I'm to blame.

The fat man looked at me and blamed myself, shook his head and said, "Lao Zheng, you are a human, not a god. You've done a great job, and if it weren't for you, I'd been in the bucket many times, so don't blame yourself too much. ”

The dust of the past has settled, and life has to look forward, and I know the truth. However, it is difficult to cross the threshold in my heart at once.

I slept at home for two days, and on the third night, Master came back from Cha's house. As soon as he came back, he called me and the fat man to the hall of the old mansion of the stranger, and reprimanded us with a black face why we went to such a dangerous place as Kunlun Mountain, and did not even inform him in advance.

The fat man and I hadn't seen the old man so angry for a long time, and he was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he knelt on the ground with weak legs. (To be continued......)
