When I saw that the two men were behaving strangely, I wondered in my heart, and followed him to the tree. I saw that on this stone platform, there were broken branches and black ash debris everywhere, and the thick tree body was cracked with several large cracks at this time, and it looked like it was about to collapse at any time.

I scratched my head, it was all due to me, I was hit by me when I was pulling out the bone spurs. This tree carries Qingzi's thoughts about her master, and now if she sees this miserable appearance, I don't know what will happen.

Just as I was in a daze, I saw that the white ape had already run to the edge of the tree, and with a big face leaning into the crack in the trunk, as if looking at something, and then turned back and called at me a few times.

I looked at his anxious appearance, and I didn't know what I saw. Walked over and asked him to step away, and when he looked through the cracks, he saw that the tree was already hollow, black, and emitting a rotten and gloomy smell.

If you look closely, there seems to be something here, buried in the dander and black ash of the tree, revealing only a dark green horn.

I looked at it for a moment, then crouched down and pressed my palm against the tree, and the bark cracked and scattered to the ground in a crumble. I reached through the cracked hole in the tree, and when I touched it, I felt something hard, what seemed to be a wooden box.

When I took it out and looked at it, I saw that the box was about a foot long and wide, and the whole body was dark green, and I couldn't tell what wood it was made of for a while. Around the body of this box, carved intricate lines, but it should not be a prohibition. The dark green of the box surface is not made of paint, it should be the color of the wood itself, and it has been hidden in this rotten tree hole for many years, and the box body is not damaged at all.

I saw it strangely, and then turned to the bottom of the box to take a look, and saw that the words "Tibetan Wind and Riding Qi" were engraved below. When I saw this, I was stunned for a moment, this "Tibetan wind and qi" is the saying in our funeral technique, I have heard the third uncle talk about it since I was a child.

After staring at those four words for a while, a thought came to my heart for no reason, and my heart was pounding for a while, and I hesitated for a moment, reached out and pressed it on the lid of the box, and opened the box.

And I saw a large book lying inside, the size of which was a few points longer and a few points wider than that of ordinary books. The pages are slightly yellowed, and they must be quite old. The only oddity is that the book doesn't have a cover.

Reaching out and taking out the scroll, I took a closer look at it, only to realize that it was not that the book did not have a cover, but that the book was incomplete in the first place, and it seemed that someone had torn off a large part of it.

Looking closely, I saw that the page was not made of ordinary paper, and I couldn't tell what material it was for a while, and the first line of the book was written in small letters: "The mourner, hide also, take advantage of the anger." Vitality runs one yuan, in the sky it flows around the six ruins, and on the earth it gives birth to all things. ”

When I saw it, I couldn't help but feel numb on my scalp, and I hurriedly flipped down, and after a while, I found the "Fetal Breath Sutra" in one of them. I read it carefully, and it was exactly the same as the method passed on to me by the third uncle and Granny Mo. I suppressed the shock in my heart and continued to flip down, from which I saw the charm footwork and the fingering of the doom.

I clutched the scroll and almost cried out. This should be the "Book of Burial" that was taken away from the funeral door, and there is no doubt about it. I heard Granny Mo say that the treasure scroll of the "Book of Burial" handed down by the funeral gate was not the earliest one, but was later re-transcribed in the late Han Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, after Qingzi and her master took the funeral book, they hid it in this big tree.

I was stunned for a long time, settled down, and then flipped down, and after a while, I found one of these problems. When Granny Mo mentioned the funeral book, she once said that the funeral book covers almost all the techniques of the burial door. The most important part of the scroll is a record of the large tombs built by the burial gate over the years, as well as extremely detailed tomb structures and burial plans. If you really want to talk about it, this is the most valuable inheritance accumulated by the burial gate for thousands of years, and the rest of the spells belong to the stubble.

It's just that I've been flipping through it for a long time, and I haven't seen even a single burial picture, obviously these are on the part that was torn off. I'm a little distracted, Qingzi's master has passed away, and I'm afraid no one can know what happened back then. It's just that from the point of view, it should be that after he seized the funeral book, he tore off the part about the tomb and gave it to the "slut", and hid the second half of the magic in the body of the tree.

It's just that why his old man did this back then, but even I can't figure it out.

I pondered in my heart, unconsciously turning a few pages in my hand, when suddenly an origami paper fell from the book and fell to the ground. I leaned over and picked it up, and the origami technique was exactly the same as Aoko's. When I opened it, I saw that it was full of words, and the handwriting was straight and elegant, obviously from the hand of a man.

The first sentence at the beginning is: "Disciples, see words like faces." ”

My heart was beating when I saw it, and it was obviously written to her by Master Qingzi. For a while, he didn't care about anything else, and as soon as he put the funeral book in the box, he found a stone and sat down beside it, and read the letter carefully.

The letter does not mention the tomb of the Xuannu or anything related to it, and it is full of a piece of paper, all of which are things from when Qingzi first started to travel alone, and the following is a very detailed commentary.

The writing in the letter is very indifferent, not impatient, and slowly, like a father telling a bedside story to his little daughter. Although I haven't really met him, I can still deeply appreciate the intimacy when I read it at this time.

In this way, it seems that this person did not leave immediately after he disappeared, but secretly followed Qingzi for a while. It's just that he didn't know why, he didn't give the paper directly to Aoko, but left it in the hole in the tree. Or maybe he didn't expect Aoko to read the letter.

Since he kept this half of the funeral book, he did not return it to the burial door, but stayed here. It can only show that his mentality at that time was also extremely contradictory, suffering from gains and losses, and he was a little overwhelmed. Sect Master Ru once scolded her, an old enemy, for being confused and indecisive all her life, although it was a momentary anger and inaccurate, but it can also be seen. In comparison, Sect Master Ru's heart is much more decisive and free.

No matter how good the Yin Patrol is, he is just a person. As long as you are a human being, you can't escape the seven emotions and six desires, and the troubles of Hongchen.

Thinking of this, my heart was slightly gloomy. He put the letter away and carefully placed it back in the box. With a thought, he took out the half of the funeral book. Flipping all the way, I found the secret of the formation of the eighteen dark wheels and the secret of control in one of them. Although the detailed construction drawings of this formation have been torn out in the upper part, it is enough to have a control method at this time.

I was overjoyed, and I immediately calmed down and silently memorized the recipe in my heart. I deduced it several times with reference to the secret of the formation, and then I had some bottom in my heart, and I breathed a sigh of relief. When I raised my head, I saw the white ape's second cargo squatting on a stone next to him, his eyes half-squinted and half-open, and he snorted a few times from time to time, as if he was half-asleep.

I didn't bother to wake him, but I looked around, and it was getting darker and darker, and it was probably almost dawn. After this toss, he was also a little physically and mentally exhausted, with one hand on the stone, holding his chin, half-closing his eyelids, dozing off, and absentmindedly flipping through the scroll.

Turning to the last page, I suddenly found that something was wrong, and when I looked closely, I saw that this text was not an ordinary small letter, but a very strange and weird text, the font was round, like a villain making all kinds of strange postures, and it made people feel chills at a glance.

This kind of writing, the third uncle taught me when he was very young. This is called the Dead Script, the so-called Dead Script, that is, a kind of dead man's writing, in our line, it is also called the dead word or ghost words. It is also unknown when this writing originated, and it is generally only found in some ancient tombs.

In the language of burial, this kind of writing is not for people to see, but to communicate yin and yang. In layman's terms, it is the medium of communication between the living and the dead.

I secretly wondered that the burial sect was the oldest sect in the funeral arts, and it was not surprising that it knew how to write the funeral language. It's just that I don't understand why a dead man's text appears in this book for the living.
