Chapter 15: The Mask
The lid of the coffin was thicker, and there was a dull creak between pushing, and with the combined efforts of me and the one-eyed dragon, a crack slowly opened, and it was dark inside, I don't know what it was, but it didn't smell as strange as when I opened the coffin before.
I was afraid that I would see a corpse or something inside, but to my surprise, halfway through the drive, the place I could see was empty.
Could it be that the coffin is empty?
I was stunned for a moment, and I increased my strength, and then I heard a thud, and the coffin fell to the side, and at the same time, the whole coffin was exposed, and at this time, an extremely delicate thing appeared in the coffin.
Mask.
Extremely thin jade mask.
In the middle, with a whitish yellow, it seemed to be some kind of color, and a word immediately flashed in my mind, the face of the ghost!
This thing, I have seen it on the mural of the ghost, it was originally the treasure of the ghostly shaman, after the ghostly people moved into the Central Plains, I don't know why the mask came into the hands of the ten thousand demon concubines. I had also guessed before that this ten thousand demon concubines would be the descendants of the ghosts.
The one-eyed dragon was surprised, "It's a mask." Although the one-eyed dragon had heard some of them, he didn't know them in detail, so he didn't recognize them. I wondered, how could this thing be here?
At the beginning, the flying knife Bai Laosi and Yang Fang came here to rob the tomb, Yang Fang put on this ghost face, and suddenly went crazy, Bai Lao Si relied on the magic flying knife to kill Yang Fang, but then he was cursed by the ghost face, and passed it on to my grandfather.
It stands to reason that this mask should be in my grandfather's hands, but for some reason, this thing has never appeared, I thought it was taken away by Chen, and now, why is it lying in this coffin? Of course, it can't be that the tofu was put in.
Could it be a corpse fairy?
I just felt confused, staring at this eerie and delicate mask, and didn't move for a while. At this moment, the one-eyed dragon suddenly reminded, "Master, there seems to be something under this mask." As soon as he reminded me of this, I immediately noticed that there seemed to be something pressing under the mask. However, I was very taboo about this thing, so I put on gloves and removed the mask.
The mask may seem lightweight, but it actually carries a bit of weight.
When I moved it away, there was a piece of paper underneath.
The paper is ordinary paper and should have been torn from a notebook.
A few words were written on it with a black oil-based pen: The bell must be tied to the bell.
These words are beautifully written, and I recognized them at a glance, they are notes of tofu. Since ancient times, calligraphy and painting have not been separated, and those who learn to paint have no worse words.
I took the paper in my hand and read both front and back, and there was no other handwriting except these seven words.
What is Tofu doing with these words?
Where did the others go?
Whoever started the trouble should end it......
This mask, I don't know where the corpse fairy got it, but it should have something to do with recent events, is the so-called bell still have to be tied to the bell person, is it to return this mask to the ten thousand demon concubines? But all the demon concubines have turned to ashes.
I think it's definitely more than I think, tofu this kid, I don't know how to write it clearly, and he's not a tricky person, this time it's written so vaguely, what's going on? Whoever started the trouble should end it...... At the beginning, the curse of the face of the ghost was originally aimed at the flying knife Bai Lao Si, could it be that this bell tie refers to Bai Lao Si?
Tofu asked me to come here, probably to give me this mask, but because I didn't show up on time, he left such a note.
But now, the devil knows where Bai Laosi is?
I suddenly remembered Bai Sanye in Beijing, the old man suddenly disappeared, could it be related to this incident?
I subconsciously picked up the mask, and several thoughts crossed my mind.
First of all, Tofu's purpose can already be confirmed, he stopped the corpse fairy at that time, and he must have asked the corpse fairy about the curse. Obviously, the corpse fairy agreed to help him, otherwise the two would not have left so simply, let alone come to this Ten Thousand Demon Tomb.
The second is the mask itself.
Its final whereabouts should have been in the hands of Chen, but the mute did not mention it, which means that the mask later changed hands.
So, who will go back and fight for this mask?
This mask should have been obtained by the corpse fairy, I don't know where it came from.
If you have to find Bai Lao Si to unlock this curse, then why doesn't the corpse fairy help people to the end and send the Buddha to the west? Since Tofu knows the way to lift the curse, why doesn't he show up? Could it be that he and the corpse fairy are gone?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and I couldn't help but carefully examine the mask in my hand, and at this moment, I felt that the mask in front of me, this face, seemed to come to life, especially its eyes, like two whirlpools, which made me feel dizzy and unconscious for a moment.
When I could react, I heard an exclamation, from the one-eyed dragon. This exclamation pulled my consciousness back, and I realized that for some reason, I almost put the mask on my face.
At this moment, the mask was only five centimeters away from my face, and the eyes of the mask were empty, and through these two small holes, I could see the frightened face of the one-eyed dragon on the other side, and at the same time, he shouted, "Master, what are you doing!" ”
I shuddered suddenly, thinking that at the beginning, didn't Yang Fang also involuntarily put it on his face? Then he was killed by Bai Laosi, and finally after Bai Laosi got the mask, he involuntarily put it on his face, and the curse was born.
Legend has it that this mask can pull people into nightmares.
This nightmare is probably the curse it refers to.
And now, too, I'm bewitched by it.
I was so frightened that I was about to remove my hand when a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in my mind......
Anyway, I've been cursed, what will happen if I wear a mask?
This bell must also be tied to the bell, will it mean something else?
Anyway, I've already been cursed, so if I wear it again, it doesn't matter, right? Tofu wouldn't be unaware of the strange appeal of this mask, but he still put it in a coffin, could it be that what it means? As soon as the thought came to me, I motioned to the one-eyed dragon not to panic, and then took a deep breath and slowly lowered the mask towards my face.
Suddenly, his face was cold, the mask was actually a little big, I was thinking, the ten thousand demon concubines themselves must not be a big face, otherwise the emperor would not be fascinated by her all of a sudden. After the mask was put on my face, I didn't feel anything strange at first, but soon, I felt dizzy, and what I saw in front of me was blurred, and my limbs gradually weakened, and at the same time, a voice that did not distinguish between men and women sounded in the depths of my mind.
It seemed to be close to my ear, but it seemed far away, and its voice seemed ethereal, muttering a language I didn't understand, but I was sure it was a shamanic language.
Damn, it would be nice if the red fur was there. I don't understand what this is all about.
The voice never stopped, getting louder and louder in my head, sometimes it was extremely clear, sometimes it seemed like a ghost whispering, making me think that it was my own auditory hallucination, and in the end, I felt that I had been set up, it should be a one-eyed dragon and a white double, and their bodies were as soft as water, and they were walking on the ground by the two of them.
During the whole process, my consciousness was chaotic, and in a daze, I only felt that the mask on my face had been taken out, and then, I heard the sound of two people talking, I knew that it was the one-eyed dragon and the white double, but at this moment, their voices seemed to come from the other side of the world, and my memory became a second memory. I listen to what they say, and I listen to it, and forget it, so that in the end they don't know what they're saying.
By the time I was a little conscious, I found myself in the hospital.
It was a hospital in Yeosu, and the one-eyed dragon was guarding beside him, and he told me that I had fainted for four days, and I had been getting nutrition injections for the past four days. And Bai Shuang had urgent matters to deal with, so he returned to Shenzhen the day before yesterday.
"Master, do you feel anything?"
I said, "I had a dream. ”
"What do you dream about?"
I thought about it carefully, but found that during the time I was in a coma, I had a very important dream, and in the dream, I was conscious, constantly reminding me that I must not forget it when I woke up.
Unfortunately, I still forgot and can't remember anything.
Damn it, what the hell?
PS: Good morning, I was a little late last night, I hope everyone who got up early has a good mood~~~
