After a pause, Zhen Rui looked at Jie'an, who had fainted, and talked about the past. It turned out that what Zhen Rui said in the Yashan Treasure Hall was indeed true, but he hid something in it, which was about the secret under the Yashan Treasure Palace. Zhen Rui's uncle is named Zhen Donglai, and some time before Zhen Donglai disappeared, he had a secret party with Zhen Rui's father.

Because Zhen Rui was already suspicious in his heart at that time, so he secretly went to listen to the corner, but this time, the two entered the secret room of the Zhen family, so Zhen Rui failed to listen to the corner, he was very depressed, and went back to his room in frustration, thinking about the uncle's affairs and difficult to sleep, but in the middle of the night, when he was lying on the bed and not sleeping, a dark shadow suddenly sneaked into his room.

Zhen Rui woke up and asked, "Who?" ”

"Shh The man who came came without lighting the lamp, walked to the bedside, and said, "It's me." Listening to the voice, Zhen Rui knew that it was Zhen Donglai, and said in surprise: "Uncle, why are you here?" ”

Zhen Donglai said with a smile: "I didn't hear it in the corner of the wall in the afternoon, are you still sleeping?" ”

Zhen Rui was precocious, and when he heard the words, he knew that his deeds in the afternoon were revealed, and he must have not concealed his father and uncle, and when his eyes rolled, he wrapped himself and said: "Uncle, you are mysterious, what do you say, can you sue me?" In the dark, Zhen Donglai's expression was not clear, but his voice had a strange taste, seemed to be a little excited, and seemed to be calculating, at that time Zhen Rui was still young, so he didn't hear it.

I only heard Zhen Dong say: "I tell you, you have to remember, this time, I don't know if I can come back, that place ...... I don't belong to the world, forget it, I'll give you something to do with so much, don't tell your father, ten years later, you will be twenty-two years old, and if I don't come back, you can open it again. After saying that, he stuffed a small wooden box for Zhen Rui, and not long after that, Yuan Donglai disappeared mysteriously.

During that time, Zhen Rui had been struggling with whether to open the things that Zhen Donglai gave, and not long after, seeing that his father was sad because of Zhen Donglai's affairs, Zhen Rui put aside the agreement, and at night, turned on the light, and carefully opened the small wooden box. What's inside?

There was only one thing in it, a letter.

Shaking off the letter and looking down at the words on it, Zhen Rui gradually figured out the reason for the matter. It turned out that Zhen Donglai had caught up with a mysterious team.

Partnering is very common in the industry of digging mushrooms, but the family is a century-old family, and the family has a big business, and there are not many people who are qualified to partner with them.

And the surname of this person who came to join forces with Zhuan Donglai is Bai, and the specific name is unknown. This person surnamed Bai organized a special operation, and the personnel of this action team included the top players on the road at that time, among them, there was the ghost king Chen Siyuan. When I heard this, I couldn't help but gasp, and I couldn't help but interrupt Zhen Rui and say, "Wait, when is this happening?" ”

Zhen Rui said: "Twenty years ago. ”

Twenty years ago?

At that time, my grandfather was not missing, I should have been eight years old twenty years ago, and my grandfather lived with me at that time, and I was just an innocent little child, running around the mountains, how could my grandfather join that organization at that time? The leader of the organization is surnamed Bai? Could it be the same person who wrote to my grandfather fourteen years ago? Does he have anything to do with Bai Laosi? So what did Grandpa do in the six years in between?

This series of questions, as Zhen Rui's words rolled in my mind, and the tofu next to me was obviously focused on the wrong point, pinched his fingers and counted the time, and finally came to a conclusion: "Tuhao, it turns out that you are 32 years old this year." ”

Zhen Rui glanced at him and said, "Does my age have anything to do with you?" ”

"Yes." Tofu made a big wish, patted me on the shoulder and said, "When we are thirty-two years old, we will definitely surpass you." Zhen Rui raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then there are still four years to go, come on." ”

I stopped Tofu, who was about to continue to embarrass people, and brought the topic back, motioning for Yuan Rui to continue.

This team, gathering the top players in the road at that time, what are they going to do?

So many people are all people with heads and faces, why are they willing to be led by people with the surname Bai? What is this person's ability to make a group of top players obey his orders?

The letter mentioned that this team is a very large organization, involving a lot of personnel, and Zhen Donglai was the bridge between this team and the Zhen family at that time, but unfortunately, Zhen Rui's father was not moved by this, so the two brothers had a disagreement on this matter.

So, what exactly does this team want to do?

That's the crux of the letter.

Guangxi, since ancient times there are many ethnic minorities, among which the Zhuang nationality is the mainstay, in this land, there have been countless ancient countries, in the change of history, they swallow each other, disappear, silent, and even disappear, among them, there is a group called the 'land ghost clan', in more than 1,500 years ago, suddenly arose, founded the 'Zimu country', this country in history did not even have a word, only existed for more than 60 years, and disappeared without a trace.

No one knows where the people of the Earth Ghost Clan come from, perhaps just like the legend of their nation, this is a people who crawled out of the ground, and was transformed by evil spirits suppressed in the underworld. It is rumored that the people of the Earth Ghost Clan, from birth to death, will wear a mask that belongs to them, but one day, for some reason, this people, along with their country, suddenly disappeared overnight.

That's right, at least judging from the traces of history, judging by the scattered local legends, the country disappeared overnight, along with the city.

So, what does this special task force have to do with this mysterious ghost clan?

To tell the truth, the thousands of years of civilization in the land of China, in these thousands of years, countless dynasties have changed, and the famous ones we can call are Xia, Shang, Zhou, Warring States, Qin, Han, Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing. After more than 1,500 years, there is no written record, and there are only some rural legends that are likely to be untrue, just like many ancient countries that have disappeared silently, there is no peculiarity.

So, why does it have anything to do with this squad?

According to legend, the people of Zimu are from the underground, and their king is the one who led them out of the ground, called the 'Earth Ghost King'. It is said that the ghost king of this land has seven heads and seven hands, and the expression of each face is different, which is joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, evil, and desire, representing the seven emotions of people.

Zimu is very low-key, living in a corner, and has no quarrel with the world. To be precise, there is no contact with the outside world, and the outside world cannot contact them, and there is a strange space between the Zimu country and the outside world.

In ancient times, there was no concept of space, and the ancients preferred to use mythological words to describe it, such as enchantment.

In today's terms, this enchantment is a bit like the space folding in "A Brief History of Time", that is, between the first line, there is another heaven and earth, and if you step across the boundary, you will enter another world. At that time, people were shocked to think that ghosts and gods, but in fact, later people researched and found that the so-called enchantment was actually the 'mirror world', that is, the illusion caused by the people of Zimu country who domesticated ghost foxes to outsiders.

As mentioned earlier, the ghost fox lives on the internal organs of humans and animals, so it is rumored that the Zimu country has a very perverted sacrificial tradition, and perhaps it is the extensive use of human and animal sacrifices that eventually caused the demise of the Zimu country. Of course, this is only speculation, and how exactly it disappeared is waiting for more detailed research.

Of course, in this special team, except for my grandfather, who is barely an archaeological team member, the rest of the people are professional mushroom diggers, and they are not interested in researching the destruction of Zimu Kingdom, what they are really interested in is the Earth Ghost King.

What's so peculiar about this ghost king who is said to have seven heads?

According to legend, when he crawled out of the ground, he carried a lamp on each head, a total of seven, and these seven lamps correspond to life, old age, sickness, death, corpses, ghosts, and gods.

"Life, old age, sickness, death, corpses, ghosts, gods?" Tofu hissed and said, "It's really fake, people can still grow seven heads?" And then for the rest of your life, you will be motionless and play with seven lights? What does that mean? He got to the point, and what Zhen Rui said was really incredible.

After Tofu asked, he listened to Zhen Rui say: "These seven lamps correspond to seven abilities, and with the first lamp, you can live forever; With a second lamp, you can stay young forever; Having a third lamp will save you from all diseases; With the fourth lamp, one can transcend life and death and not enter reincarnation. After a pause, Zhen Rui squinted his eyes and said, "The first four lights are almost what the world wants, but what is really irresistible is the fifth lamp." ”

I said, "Corpse lamp? ”

Zhen Rui nodded and said, "The fifth lamp, the corpse lamp, can bring the dead back to life." "My heart pounded, a person, may be able to resist the temptation of immortality, but people are emotional animals, for the people they care about come to life, it is difficult to resist, if I have this fifth lamp, can I resurrect grandpa? Is it possible to resurrect the pleadings? Is it possible to resurrect Tofu's dead parents?

Tofu asked, "What do the ghost lamps and magic lamps mean?" He was listening to the story and clearly didn't believe it.
