The car drove out of the village and on the national highway.

"Lin Kun, you really misunderstood me." Xu Duobao paused, a trace of mystery appeared on his face, and he said in an accentuated tone: "This time I'm here to do business!" ”

"Doing business? Just you? ”

"Lin Kun, I'm not stupid, of course I know the potential danger behind this, so I didn't just want to find you to join the gang before, just to prevent that fat man from doing the black." Xu Duobao leaned over with a shy face and continued, "I'm not stupid old Xu, who can trust it, who can't believe it, I still have a number in my heart." ”

"You're still blinded by greed." I took out my cigarette case, glanced at Xu Duobao with slanted eyes, saw him smiling and looking at me, and handed him a cigarette.

"Lao Xu, cooperating with this kind of person is risky." I spat out the smoke ring and continued, "Does he think that there is too much money and too few people, or is your personality charismatic enough?" ”

"This, this ......" Xu Duobao was speechless.

I glanced at him, and saw that his face was a little pale, and he didn't speak again, and there was silence in the car for a while, except for the sound of us both smoking.

After a while, Xu Duobao seemed to have made up his mind, he raised his head, looked at me and said, "Lin Kun, don't blame me for hiding it from you, in fact, this matter has something to do with you." ”

"What does it have to do with me?" I raised an eyebrow.

Xu Duobao snuffed out the cigarette butt, threw the cigarette butt out the window, turned around and said, "Do you remember the incident of the soul suppression mirror last time?" ”

"Of course I remember, last time someone sold you a 'sick' piece of soil, what happened this time, my conscience found out to compensate you?" I scoffed.

"That's not the case," Xu Duobao shook his head, "After the incident happened last time, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, so I came to them to tell them about it, in fact, I didn't want to make any result, I just wanted to be angry, I didn't expect ......"

"What didn't you expect?"

Xu Duobao took a breath and continued: "As soon as they heard that I had solved the yin soul in the soul suppression mirror, they apologized to me one after another, apologized to me one after another, and ...... And he also told me that the soul suppression mirror was made from that ancient tomb. Xu Duobao said.

This is a bit interesting, I rubbed my chin, the soul suppression mirror is a horcrux in my eyes, but in the eyes of ordinary people, how to say that it is also a well-preserved, high-quality pre-Han antiquity, to put it mildly, it is also worth 1.8 million.

Normally, let alone a tomb robber, even Xu Duobao, an old boy, would not give away such an object casually for no reason.

However, if there is still a priceless treasure hidden in that tomb, it does not seem to be incomprehensible.

In connection with the black dog corpse I saw last time, I am afraid that it is a big zongzi buried in the ancient tomb, and this group of people can't gnaw it down, so they are ruthless, gritted their teeth and threw out the soul suppression mirror, wanting to see if there are any capable people on the boundary of Xi'an.

I pondered for a while before I raised my head and said, "So, when they sold you the Soul Suppression Mirror, they were throwing stones to ask for directions?" ”

"Yes." Xu Duobao nodded.

"That's not right," I came back to my senses, looked at Xu Duobao thoughtfully, and said, "Old Xu, since they all know that there are hard bones in that tomb that he can't gnaw off, why do the three of you dare to go in again?" ”

Xu Duobao avoided my gaze, his face was a little red, and he whispered a little embarrassedly: "I, I didn't tell him that this yin spirit was solved by you, I was in a hurry to investigate and think clearly, as soon as my brain was hot, I ...... I'll just say I did it. ”

Hearing this, I almost didn't laugh at Xu Duobao, this kind of thing can be recognized as soon as the brain is hot? When the time comes, you really meet the big zongzi, and the three of you plan to hug each other and wait for death?

No wonder Xu Duobao came to me every day at that time, and he wanted to pull me in, it turned out that Genjie was here, otherwise no matter how familiar this old boy was with me, there was no reason to reveal such a big thing to me.

Xu Duobao glanced at me secretly, and seeing that I had no expression on my face, he said worriedly: "Lin Kun, I didn't deliberately hide this. ”

"Forget it, this is also a very important clue, I won't bother with you."

"There were originally five people in that group, far and near, all with some kinship, but the last time they took out the soul suppression mirror, they folded three people in it."

"Yo, this is fresh, what's going on with you?"

The death of three people in it shows the danger of this tomb, but what does this have to do with Xu Duobao?

Xu Duobao didn't care about my teasing, waved his hand, and continued: "The dead person has nothing to do with me, but this tomb is a bit famous, it is a nine-palace tomb." As for me, I happened to have studied the structure of these burial chambers a little. ”

As soon as Xu Duobao said this, I understood that if it was a nine-palace tomb, then Xu Duobao did have the value of existence in this gang.

What is the Tomb of the Nine Palaces?

Everyone knows that whether it is a feudal emperor, a powerful prince, or a common people, a wealthy merchant or a literati, the most worried thing is that his residence after death will be dug up and robbed, not to mention the desecration of his body, but also the theft of his favorite objects in life.

Therefore, since ancient times, from the emperor to the common people, they have attached great importance to the anti-theft of tombs, and various anti-theft methods have emerged in endlessly.

The common people generally worked the measures to seal the tombs, digging deep tombs, blocking with huge stones, and so on, while the feudal emperors had much more abundant methods. Multiple coffins were the most basic, and many emperors chose to build their tombs in various hidden locations, and tomb robbers could not find a place.

Or, recreate a fake tomb outside the real tomb to confuse the tomb robbers.

This nine-palace tomb, as the name suggests, is a structural pattern with a multi-storey fake tomb. Of course, the number of false burial chambers is not necessarable, and nine represents the plural concept, not a total of nine burial chambers.

So what does all this have to do with Xu Duobao? Xu Duobao has a special fondness for the structure of the tomb, and has studied all kinds of strange tombs of previous dynasties all year round. In other words, he's an expert on the subject. Tomb robbing isn't as simple as digging a hole. First of all, you have to find the tomb, and secondly, you have to know where to get the hole into the main tomb. These are the most basic situations, corresponding to most of the tombs of high-ranking officials and wealthy people in a single tomb, and the emperor-level mausoleums have more things in them. A person who has studied the structure of the tomb can at least save everyone a lot of wrongful paths.

Especially in the tomb of the Nine Palaces, which has several fake tombs, ordinary tomb robbers dig up a fake tomb, maybe they will go home with some burial goods, but they don't know that somewhere nearby, the real tomb that really hides priceless treasures is missed by themselves.

That's why Xu Duobao is so confident, but he missed a more critical point.

I threw away the cigarette butt in my hand and said to Xu Duobao: "Old Xu, have you ever wondered how this group of people knew about that ancient tomb?" ”

Xu Duobao was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Aren't they doing this, he occasionally probes this ancient tomb, what's so strange, there are so many ancient tombs in Xi'an, and several ancient tombs can be dug up by building a subway, locals like them shouldn't know best?" ”

"You are also a knowledgeable person, in a cemetery in the format of the Nine Palace Tomb, the owner of the tomb will also place a lot of burial goods in the fake tomb in order to confuse the tomb robbers." I paused, and then said, "But have you recently heard that there are earthen artifacts on the ground in Xi'an?" From beginning to end, there was only that soul suppression mirror, don't you think it's strange? ”

"What's so strange about that?" Xu Duobao was a little confused.

"Hmph." I snorted lightly, "I told you about the origin of that soul suppression mirror, the Yin spirit hidden in it, this thing, it can't be in a fake tomb, it must be placed in a real tomb." ”

"Since it has already appeared, it means that someone has entered the real tomb, do you think that with the ability of that group, they can enter the real tomb?"

Hearing this, Xu Duobao's brows also furrowed, he was not a fool, he was just blindfolded by desire. "You mean, it's not them who entered the real tomb, but there are actually people behind them?"

"That's right, don't forget, in that tomb, there is an existence that is a hundred times more terrifying than the Yin Spirit." I nodded, and said: "Take 10,000 steps back, with the greed of this group, even if he doesn't get any benefits in the real tomb, he will not let go of the funeral goods in the fake tomb, and some will definitely come out, you have been with them for the past few days, have you seen other artifacts?" ”

Xu Duobao shook his head and said a little dazedly: "No, from beginning to end, I have only seen such a soul suppression mirror." ”

"So I think this group of people is just a pawn thrown on the table, and there must be someone else hiding behind him." I concluded.

"That'...... Then what are they asking me for, since they can enter the real tomb themselves, why do they have to leak this news and find someone to rob the tomb? Xu Duobao was a little anxious, he finally sensed that something was wrong.

I spread my hands and said, "I don't know, but guess it has something to do with the owner of the tomb inside?" ”

After speaking, I didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Duobao anymore, turned my head to look out the window, and said so many words to Xu Duobao, about an hour has passed, and we have entered the city of Xi'an.

And Xu Duobao seemed to have thought of some possibilities, and looked ahead in amazement.

It's clear that the treasure is in front of you, but you're just a pawn used by others to explore the way, I'm afraid this kind of feeling is uncomfortable.

After Xu Duobao was sent to his house, I didn't go up to say hello to Lu Ping, so I went back to Qiu Yanyan's house directly.

"Lin Kun?" Seeing me come back suddenly, Qiu Xiaoyan asked in surprise.

"I'm sorry I didn't let me know in advance."

"If you come less, let me know in advance, you're afraid that I will raise a man behind your back!" Qiu Xiaoyan gave me a blank look and took off my dusty clothes for me.

"Hehe, I'll just kid."

"What have you been doing these days, why haven't you heard from you at all?"

"I went back to Hengduan Mountain, and Ren Yonghai looked for me something."

"It's him again." Qiu Xiaoyan was very uninterested in Ren Yonghai, "You stay away from the police in the future, I don't want to have too much to do with him." ”

"Don't worry, it's just between me and him."

"Okay, what is he looking for you?"

"There's a strange case there."

"Isn't it just that the body is lost? What's the big deal. Qiu Xiaoyan said disapprerovingly.

"It's not about throwing corpses." I shook my head and pressed my temples in distress, "Not long ago, the local antiquities department excavated an ancient tomb, and as a result, several people were poisoned and hospitalized, and they are still unconscious. ”

"You're not a doctor, so why are you looking for this?"

"I suspect it's corpse poison."

When Qiu Xiaoyan heard this, her face changed and she didn't speak again.

"So, we went to the ancient tomb, and in the ancient tomb, we met the ancient corpse of the previous year, and finally saved the day, and after coming out, we encountered a monster attack, and this strange incident aggravated my doubts." I recalled, while saying, "The boundary where the ancient tomb is located is a place called Heiyun Village, one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people, since the incident happened in Heiyun Village, I started to investigate from Heiyun Village." I don't know if I don't check this, I was shocked when I checked it, and along the way, we encountered strange things one after another, and there were monsters infestation along the way, and a lot of people went in. ”

"Then you're not hurt, are you?" Qiu Xiaoyan said with concern.

I waved my hand and said, "I'm fine." ”

"That's good, what about later?"

"Heiyun Village is indeed a place with a story, this village is a clan that migrated from the Central Plains, after thousands of years of collision and blending, it has become extremely mysterious, the most mysterious thing is that all their clansmen have a 'genetic disease', as long as they are over fifty years old, they will have an attack, and the symptom of the attack is to become a 'zombie'. In the Black Cloud Village, there are also five artifacts, which are said to be able to restrain the 'curse', but the strange thing is that in the past thousand years, the five major artifacts have been lost, and a few decades ago, one of the 'Soul Suppression Pagoda' was also mysteriously stolen, and this matter also buried a disaster. ”

"And this kind of thing?" Qiu Yanyan also expressed her disbelief when she heard it.

"yes, that's even more bizarre on the merits." I continued, "In order to avoid the disaster, the owner of Heiyun Village completely cut off the village where the elderly people live in the village from the outside world, causing a human tragedy. Because, the five secret techniques of Heiyun Village have been lost a lot after several circulations, and in the end, we have only found a 'Gu' that can temporarily restrain the corpse poison, and those patients are not really out of danger. ”
