Chapter 5: Solving the Mystery of Cause and Effect
Returning to the detention room with an unhappy face, he saw the big guy who was talking to Ning Jing at a glance, and his eyes lit up in an instant, and he rushed over and kicked him to lie down, scolding, "Ning Yuan! God has eyes, let Lao Tzu touch you again so soon!"
This is really a narrow road, I didn't expect to meet him again so soon, in this trip to Japan, Hakuma Shino didn't plan to meet Jin Santu and them, who knew that they would meet in the detention room so coincidentally.
Although Bai Ma Xiao escaped death that time and did not lose anything, but that time the three of them tricked them into being substitutes for the dead ghosts, and this account had to be settled.
Bai Ma Xiao wanted to kick again, but Tranquility suddenly blocked in front of him, "Bai Ma!
"Go away! You don't know what's going on, this guy almost killed me!"
Suddenly, Tranquility knelt down, "If you want to fight, hit me." ”
Only then did Bai Maxiao realize that Tranquility's eyes were full of tears, and he said in surprise, "What's wrong with you?
Tranquility didn't speak, just knelt in front of him and cried, and Ning Yuan behind him also knelt down behind Tranquility, his hand lightly on her shoulder, this scene was like a mother protecting her son who had committed an accident. Bai Ma Xiao glanced at Bai Bird Ling in confusion, and she just shook her head helplessly. This time Bai Ma Xiao was even more strange, and looked at Nie Jianfeng again, he sighed and said, "We all know about you." This Ning Yuan is Ningning's younger brother. ”
This news really startled Bai Ma Xiao, it turned out that the eldest sister who Ning Yuan often talked about was still in school, and it was actually Ning Yuan, and Ning Yuan's dead brother Ning Zhi...... are all quiet brothers, and the names of these two people together are "Tranquility Zhiyuan"?
It seems that he should have thought of it a long time ago, but this Ning Yuan doesn't look like he is smaller than Ningning.
"He's really your brother, how do I feel he's so much older than you?" Bai Maxiao's anger disappeared at this time, leaving only doubts.
Tranquility was still crying, she couldn't speak, Bai Bird Ling on the side actually stepped forward to help her up, Bai Bird Ling, who had never cared about outsiders, actually came to comfort Tranquility, Bai Ma Xiao's heart softened suddenly, "Okay, don't you cry, I don't want to settle accounts with him, who would have thought that he would be his own person." ”
"Thank you......" Despite Hakumashio's forgiveness, Tranquility still didn't stop crying.
Bai Maxiao said strangely, "Why are you still crying?"
Shiratori Ling glanced at him reproachfully and whispered, "She's crying." ”
Bai Maxiao seemed to have just reacted, and scratched his head helplessly.
Nie Jianfeng explained: "Tranquility's family is a big family in the spirit world, and it is mainly based on spiritual silk art, but this is the exclusive spiritual art of female spirits, so their family respects women. Tranquility is actually the youngest of the three children of the Ning family, but because she is a woman, she is ahead of her two elder brothers in terms of generation. ”
Once this family develops into a big force, there will be a lot of strange regulations, and Bai Maxiao doesn't bother to complain. However, he could also understand that she was protecting Ning Yuan so much, in addition to being her younger brother, he was now her only younger brother.
However, speaking of Ning Zhi's death, Bai Maxiao still had some doubts, he walked up to Ning Yuan, and said helplessly, "You should also get up, this matter should be borne by my eldest brother, not you." ”
Ning Yuan got up just now, two heads taller than Bai Ma Xiao, but he lowered his gaze and didn't dare to look at him.
In fact, when he heard that Bai Ma Xiao came back from the other world unscathed, Ning Yuan knew that this person was definitely not ordinary, he could actually escape from that monster, and if he would trouble him in the future, he would definitely have to wait for death, so he had always been very jealous of him.
"Your sister and I are living together...... No, it's living together...... Neither is it right...... What should I say?" Bai Ma Xiao looked at Nie Jianfeng for help, for fear that he would be chopped up by a sword if he made a mistake, so it would be much better for him to help him with his words.
"Co-sleeping colleagues. ”
"Yes, co-workers. Is there such a word?" Bai Ma Xiao glanced at Nie Jianfeng, but was glared back by him, hurriedly retracted his gaze, and continued to ask, "Let me ask you, how did your second brother Ning Zhi die?" Bai Ma Xiao didn't say the word "miserable" when he told me that he ......died, glanced at Tranquility, and changed his words, "So...... It's strange, you guys are talking nonsense to trick me into going to the grave, right?"
Ning Yuan sighed and said sadly, "No, my second brother... He actually died because of me. ”
"Is it because of that samurai?"
Speaking of the red-armored warrior in the tomb, Jian Yin raised her head, after all, she had also been captured by the warrior, and she seemed to have lingering palpitations.
"Not really. Second brother, he died because I triggered the entrance barrier......"
Entrance Enchantment? Could it be the stone pavilion? In this way, Jin Santu brought a dozen travel bags to build a stone pavilion on the suspended platform, which means that there was no stone pavilion there when they went down to the tomb at the beginning.
"The slab - the same slab we put on the portal later, it was originally embedded in the ground of the suspension platform, I touched it, and it triggered the barrier and brought us to that world, but we don't know how big that triggered entrance is, and my second brother is ...... Standing at the edge of the entrance, so he was half ......"
Bai Maxiao heard that the stone pavilion he called the portal was a device that could fix the size of the entrance, and before that, the size of the entrance was difficult to master, so Ning Zhi was very unlucky to stand on the edge, and half of his body was sent to that world...... That's why his death is so strange.
"And then you were trapped in that world for two months, didn't you?"
"Yes...... There is also a water spring tomb in that world, but it is designed upside down. The third master said that the tombs of the two worlds together are a whole tomb, and the one in our world is just an entrance, and the main tomb is actually a tomb in that world. The third master said that this is called ......'mirror twin structure', and that tomb is a typical 'mirror king's tomb'. ”
Now Bai Maxiao has a picture in his mind, when he looked at the map of Jin Santu, the space of the Shuiquan tomb was distributed in the shape of a "dagger", that is, half of the word "soil", and now if there is a tomb that is upside down from side to side, it will become a complete structure of the word "earth"? But what does "king" mean?
"What 'tomb of the king'? I see what is drawn on the map, even if it is combined with the upside-down tomb of that world, it is just the word 'soil'. ”
"The third master said, that horizontal is the dragon vein. Do you still remember the golden palace at the top of the word 'earth'? It is actually the king's bedroom, which is embedded in the wall of that mountain, in fact, that mountain is the middle section of the dragon vein, that is, the horizontal, forming the word 'king'. The dragon refers to the emperor, and the person who governs the territory under the emperor is the king. ”
Bai Maxiao immediately reacted, "In other words, this king refers to the archangel, and the emperor is his so-called god, so look at it, that place is not a tomb, but ...... A dungeon?"
"The third master also speculated so, there is never only one archangel, so ...... There may be more than one underground palace that serves as an entrance, and it exists all over the world. ”
Bai Maxiao couldn't help but gasp, the entrance to Xiaoqi Mountain was so valued by Fez, and in the end he had to blow up the entire tomb, looking afraid that things from that world would come to this world, if there was more than one entrance...... Then, it will be a very serious disaster!
Ning Jing and Nie Jianfeng were confused, but usually at this time, the characters who asked and exposed the loneliness and ignorance were played by Ning Ning, but she was immersed in the pain of losing her second brother and was not in the mood to care about other things, so Nie Jianfeng asked reluctantly, "You guys...... What are you talking about?"
Hakuba Shino was just about to say when Iori's voice came from behind him, "I don't want to interrupt you, but I've been waiting for the next one for more than ten hours, and I thought you had escaped." ”
Shiratori Ling stood up and said to Shirabashio, "I'll go next." You can tell them about what happened during this time. ”
Hakuma Xiao nodded in agreement, although Shiratori Ling lost the spell talisman, her spiritual power was also the highest among all the people in this room, and it was not his turn to worry, besides, he had a fairly pleasant conversation with Iori just now, and there was no danger, so he let her go with confidence.
After Shiratori Ling left, Bai Maxiao and them recounted what happened in the Shuiquan Tomb, but it was focused on the other world, so they didn't mention the Bronze Tomb, and the Bronze Tomb could only be regarded as an episode in that operation, that is, a hidden side quest, which had nothing to do with the main story at all.
The process of narration is actually a process of Bai Maxiao reviewing again, so he remembered another thing and asked Ning Yuandao, "So, you are also a spirit?"
Ning Yuan waved his hand and said, "Our Ning family is mainly female, practicing spirit silk arts, although the men of the Ning family can't be spirits, they will still learn some basic knowledge of the spirit world, so I will have a weak spiritual power." ”
"No wonder the white barrier outside the tomb has an effect on you, too, and you can trigger the slate. But there is still one last question, what is going on with the eldest brother and the woman named Juan, why does the guy who calls himself an angel want a female spirit so much?"
Ning Yuan shook his head, "I don't understand this very well." The woman...... In fact, it is the daughter of the third master, Jin Shoujuan. When Jin Shoujuan was spoken, Ning Yuan's face was obviously a lot redder, and everyone present could see this guy's thoughts.
Ning Yuan didn't notice everyone's eyes in a second, and continued, "Juan, she has followed the third master to the tomb since she was a child, and she is the heir to inherit the mantle of the third master. But...... During one of the grave visits, she was hit by a curse or something, and her face gradually rotted and molted, like a ...... A zombie like ......"
Nie Jianfeng interjected, "It may be a carrion poison." ”
Only then did Bai Maxiao understand why the woman in the photo was wearing such heavy makeup, which turned out to be covering up the diseased face.
"We didn't think about it that much, the third master thought it was an ancient curse, so he kept looking for a way to solve the curse in the ancient tombs everywhere. Later, I don't know where the third master knew, saying that there was a way to heal her in the Shuiquan tomb in Xingang. What happened to us in the tomb later...... You know, Xiaoye, I accidentally triggered the entrance mechanism, and I was trapped in that world for two months before I met that Raphael. The third master seemed to have made some kind of deal with it, so he left Juan there and let us back. Afterwards...... The third master began to plan to get close to you, and that's what happened later. Actually, the third master, he didn't mean to harm you......"
Bai Maxiao interrupted him and said very understandingly, "I know, otherwise I wouldn't still call him big brother." At first, I thought he was a heavy color and a light friend, and he cheated on his brother for the sake of a woman, but I didn't expect it to be a daughter. Now it makes sense. ”
Anyway, Ning Yuan was also very guilty, after all, he almost killed them there.
"Speaking of which, big brother, did he come with you this time?"
"Yes, but the third master set off three days ago, and I told him to meet at Yuanchuan Residence. Didn't expect to be stuck here. ”
Bai Ma Xiao nodded thoughtfully, it was really unexpected to be able to reunite with Jin Santu in Japan this time.
"Shinoha...... You're not going to ......"
Shiraba knew what he was thinking, "Of course not. It's just that the eldest brother still owes me and Xiaoling a glass of wine, and I have to get it back. ”
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of clapping hands in the corner of the room, and everyone followed the voice, and the man in the white hoodie was clapping, raising his head, revealing a pair of red eyes, "What a wonderful story." But everyone here may all die here today. ”
