"Bitter? Well, can you tell me now, do you have any problems? I asked, staring into Lin Xiaoyu's eyes.

Lin Xiaoyu smiled, "Since I'm here, it means that I'm willing to tell you the truth." ”

I suddenly rejoiced in my heart, and it sounded like there was some kind of implication that if she hadn't had some kind of concern or other affection for me, she wouldn't have come to me, and she wouldn't have owed anything to me.

"Don't worry, you drink saliva to warm up your body first, and speak slowly." I laughed.

Lin Xiaoyu obediently took a sip of water, and then said, "I think you have guessed that my life experience is related to Meng Xing." ”

When these words came out of Lin Xiaoyu's mouth and reached my ears, even though I was fully prepared in my heart, I was still surprised. I looked at her incredulously, "W-what the hell is going on?" ”

"Actually, it all starts with "The King of Heaven Sends His Son". Lin Xiaoyu said.

I will definitely not forget this "Heavenly King Sending His Son", if it weren't for it, I wouldn't have been involved in this right and wrong. I then asked, "So this "Heavenly King Sending His Son" is not only about the so-called family debts, but also about a secret hidden behind it?" ”

"Yes!" Lin Xiaoyu nodded, "Since you've already guessed, I won't beat around the bush." In fact, as an heirloom of our Lin family, the real value of this "Heavenly King Sending His Son" lies in the fact that it is a treasure map. ”

"Treasure map?" I was surprised, "Although I haven't seen the real picture of this picture, I have seen all the photos on the Internet, this is a figure painting, how can it be a treasure map?" Could it be that there is a mezzanine? ”

Lin Xiaoyu shook his head, "I can't say the specifics, maybe there are some special marks in the picture, but people who don't know the mystery can't see it." ”

I nodded, thinking to myself, there are a lot of lines in this picture, if these lines are drawn according to a specific password, you look ordinary, but those who master decoding can see the doorway, so I estimate that in addition to this picture, there should be a set of passwords in the hands of the Lin family.

"If it's a treasure map, what is this treasure?" I then asked.

Lin Xiaoyu shook his head again and said, "I really can't say this." Because, if you want to trace back to the roots, in fact, our Lin family is not the real owner of "The Heavenly King Sends His Son". ”

"Oh?"

Lin Xiaoyu said, "The King of Heaven Sends His Son" is my grandmother's dowry, it was the Lin family that followed my grandmother, and since then, it has become an heirloom of our Lin family. But unfortunately, more than 60 years ago, my grandmother died untimely and this picture was lost with her. ”

Listening to her talk about the events of more than 60 years ago, I was suddenly poked by something, and I naturally thought of my grandfather's experience more than 60 years ago. Connecting the clues such as Yinshan, the mysterious woman, and the brass key, I suddenly realized that Lin Xiaoyu's grandmother may be the mysterious woman who has been looking for a group of blind people to dig up the medicine corpse for more than 60 years.

"Could it be that your grandmother is ......?"

Lin Xiaoyu had tears in her eyes and said, "Yes, my grandmother is the boss behind the hiring of tomb robbers to open the medicine corpse tomb back then. When she left home, my dad was still in swaddling clothes, and he didn't expect that her departure would be goodbye. ”

"So, your grandmother's surname is Meng, right?" I asked.

Lin Xiaoyu wiped a handful of tears and nodded: "Yes, her name is Meng Jing, and she is the descendant of Faqiu Tianguan." To be precise, it should be the descendants of Meng Xing. ”

Combined with the known clues, now I can roughly sort out such a synopsis: after the death of Meng Xing, the last Faqiu Tianguan, he sealed the Faqiu Tianguan Seal in a pure gold box, and left a last word to future generations, saying that if the Tianguan Seal did not reappear in the rivers and lakes after two hundred years, they could open the ancient tomb and take away the Faqiu Seal by themselves. In addition to this, he also left a treasure map for the descendants of the Meng family, but it was estimated that the treasure was definitely not the Faqiu Heavenly Seal, because the Meng family knew where the seal was hidden. It's a pity that two hundred years have passed, and Meng Xing has not come back to life, but Faqiumen has gone out of business, and he didn't take Meng Xing's last words seriously at all. After more than a thousand years, Lin Xiaoyu's grandmother didn't know why she came back to her senses, remembered the legacy of her ancestors, and found a group of tomb robbers to go to the tomb to open medicine, but died tragically in the tomb.

I wanted to comfort her a few words, but I didn't expect Lin Xiaoyu to be stronger than I thought, and shook her head and said, "You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine." For my grandmother, I haven't even seen her face, so ...... I'm not really upset, I'm just ......."

"You're actually grieving for your grandmother and the Meng family, aren't you?" I said suddenly.

Lin Xiaoyu also seemed surprised that I would say this, and looked at me with wide eyes, "You, why did you say that?" ”

"From Meng Xing's death to now, for more than a thousand years, isn't what the Meng family has done enough to illustrate the problem? Meng Xing said that he didn't live for two hundred years, so he asked them to open the tomb and take away the Faqiu Heavenly Seal, but the result was that not only did no one come to take the Faqiu Heavenly Seal, but even some people didn't want it to see the light of day again. ”

Lin Xiaoyu trembled, "This ......"

"Meng Xing installed the Qiqiao Linglong lock on the broken dragon stone of the ancient tomb, and left seven Canglong Seven Suzhou Keys for future generations, originally to guard against the Qianmian Taoist priest and prevent the seven keys from being collected by him at once. But what he didn't expect was that although the Qianmian Taoist priest failed to collect these seven keys, his descendants also led the Faqiu Gate to division. ”

"How do you know that?" Lin Xiaoyu asked.

"I guess."

"Guess?" Lin Xiaoyu was puzzled.

"I did guess. Although Yinshan is indeed a treasure of feng shui, it is not possible to have three large tombs at the same time in a small place, if the tomb of Qu Ping is accidental, then the tomb of the medicine corpse of the Song Dynasty located above the tomb of Meng Xing is not accidental. ”

I continued: "We have all been there, and it is clear that the entire medicine corpse tomb is completely a trap, and every mechanism of it seems to be carefully designed for tomb robbers, and its existence has only one purpose, and that is to provide cover for the tomb of Meng Xing underneath. And those who know where Meng Xing's tomb is and don't want it to be stolen, except for the Qianmian Daoist, only the Meng family is left. ”

"The Taoist priest of Qianmian will not do anything more, if he wants to keep this ancient tomb, it is enough not to touch it, there is no need to pretend to be a suspicious tomb. Therefore, the only thing I can think of is the Meng family, a divided Meng family. ”

Lin Xiaoyu sighed with tears: "Li Rui, you are indeed very smart, even you guessed this." ”

"Actually, it was another question that prompted me to think so." I continued, "Because what my grandfather found in the medicine corpse tomb back then was only a brass key, but Meng Xing left seven keys, in addition to one in the mouth of the female corpse, there should be five more, but your grandmother Meng Wei only has one key, where did the rest of the keys go?" Why did she take the risk knowing that it would be difficult to open the tomb with a key? ”

"You're right, all of this is because the Meng family is too selfish!" Lin Xiaoyu said.

In fact, Meng Xing had seven sons back then, and he handed over the six Canglong and Seven Suzhou keys to the six sons except for the eldest son Meng Changfeng, and handed over the "Heavenly King Sending His Son" with the treasure map to Meng Changfeng for collection, the original intention was to hope that the seven sons would unite sincerely and jointly protect the foundation of Faqiu. But he underestimated the sinister nature of people's hearts, and in the face of interests, family affection and blood are not worth mentioning. ”

This story reminds me of "Nine Sons Seize the Inheritance", even if they are flesh and blood, but for the sake of profit, they will turn against each other. Meng Xing originally wanted his seven sons to guard the tomb for him, so that after he was reborn, he could continue to take charge of the Faqiu Gate and create immortal achievements. Even he thought about the worst outcome, even if he couldn't wake up, his descendants would still be able to take six keys to open his mausoleum and take out the Heavenly Seal of Faqiu, and revive the majesty of Faqiumen.

However, the plan was beautiful, and reality slapped him in the mouth. He probably wouldn't have dreamed that just after he lay down in the Heavenly Meteor Jade Body, his seven sons would each make a small calculation. As for whether Meng Xing could wake up, in their time, it was itself an "agnosticism". Therefore, after his death, the seven sons of the Meng family all came up with the idea of Faqiu Tianyin. But after all, there is only one Faqiu seal, and it is impossible for seven people to divide it, and Meng Xing did not make a will before his death, who will inherit his position, so theoretically anyone can inherit it.

As a result, in the following decades, the seven sons of the Meng family quickly evolved from the original sincere unity to intrigue and even cannibalism. In order to collect the seven keys, they eat the law of the jungle and do everything they can, regardless of family affection and blood.

"The seven sons of the Meng family were red-eyed for the sake of the Qiu Yin, although there were strong and weak among the seven sons, maybe God couldn't stand it, and in the end, none of them could get together the seven keys. In the end, Faqiumen split, except for the eldest son Meng Changfeng, the remaining six sons ran away, changed their names and surnames, and set up their own doors. Since then, the seven keys of Canglong have been lost. Lin Xiaoyu said.

I heard Lin Xiaoyu say so much in one breath, and the water in the cup was cold, so I licked the water for her and said, "Although this story sounds a little sad, there are more such things in the past dynasties. The so-called people are watching the sky, and the whereabouts of this mound mark are still unknown, and I believe that in the dark, God has punished them. ”

"But I don't feel worth it for my grandmother." Lin Xiaoyu had a hint of indignation in her tone, "Thousands of years have passed, but the so-called family mission has always been firmly pressed in her heart, sometimes I really don't understand, just for that hair mound, for that ethereal ancestral teaching, she would not even want a name." ”

"Perhaps, we shouldn't have beaten them to death, after all, we don't know what happened back then, and we are not qualified to evaluate history." I comforted softly, "Perhaps, among the seven sons back then, Meng Changfeng wanted to follow and stick to the foundation, but he couldn't stop the other younger brothers from setting up their own doors. Think about it, since Meng Xing left seven keys, why did he only give them to his six sons, and why did he give the "Heavenly King Sending His Son" to Meng Changfeng? I think the so-called statement that he did not leave a will is most likely that the other six sons don't want to admit it at all, just like when Yongzheng took Kangxi's edict to let several brothers recognize his legal status, he died without proof, it was too wishful thinking. ”
