Chapter 590: Into the Cave
Xiao Wu came back with tea and a blank expression, and Wangchen asked with a smile, "Let's talk about it." ”
"Hmm. Xiao Wu nodded, his eyes full of emptiness, "I can't stay too long, I just heard Boss Mu say something like 'insulting style', 'impatient and vicious', 'actually making a beauty trick for my son' and so on." ”
"Oh?" Chu Xunyu and the three of them glanced at each other, and sure enough, they had found the right way, and there was really something wrong with this She family.
Forget Chen took a step forward and said softly to Xiao Wu: "Go back and do what you have to do, you don't remember anything." Xiao Wu nodded stunnedly, turned around and closed the door and left.
"Okay, we don't need to stay longer, let's go to the She family tomorrow to see the situation. Chu Xunyu looked at everyone.
The two had no objections, so the three of them said goodbye to the fourth lady Wenqin together and kept in touch with each other. On the way back, Chu Xunyu told the two of them the news that Mu Cheng told him, it seems that the reason for Boss Mu's anger is this She family, and it seems that the problem on the She family's side needs to be solved.
"I'll go. Mu Yuan volunteered to recommend himself, "I'll go and visit their house." ”
"No. Forget Chen immediately objected, "This She family can make the Mu family shake like this, it must be extraordinary, Mu Yuan, you are still inexperienced in the rivers and lakes, too reckless, and you will rush over without knowing the depth, in case you provoke a business trip that will not end well, you should stay and stare at the Mu family, and I will go to the She family." ”
"Well, the senior's concerns are not unreasonable, and I mean the same thing. Chu Xunyu nodded, indicating reconsideration, but he was quite surprised in his heart, when did Wangchen become so proactive, looked up at Wangchen, and found that his face was faintly excited, and he secretly screamed at the moment, this old man is not serious to see the second daughter of the She family, not to say that it is like Jiangdong Erqiao, it is really a breath to take medicine - the old problem is committed again.
Mu Yuan was poured a basin of cold water, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "It's the Mu family again, I'm tired of seeing it." ”
Chu Xunyu didn't bother to pay attention to these two people, so he simply dropped a sentence: "I'll go and see the cave that their Mu family hired someone to dig." With that, he flew away from the night street
After Chu Xunyu returned to the insect repellent man, he found that the entire construction site was lit with lights, and he was wielding a shovel and pickaxe, and the soil on the sling belt up and down was wet and fishy, which was very different from before, and the land outside the cave entrance was facing a bunch of dead insects and small snakes, all of which were messy things that could not be seen clearly, but the colors were bright, and they were all poisonous, but fortunately, the name of the insect repellent was not called in vain, and it was more than enough to deal with these things.
"It's night!" someone shouted under the cave, and the fat foreman above was shocked when he heard this, and immediately jumped up and knocked off the cigarette pouch in his hand, jumped up and ran to the entrance of the cave and shouted: "You are the bridge?"
"Hashiding. The Underground Man echoed, "Same as on the header!"
"You!" the fat man took a sip and nodded with satisfaction, "It's more than half a year, and I finally found a place to cross the country, so I came up to rest, and waited for the boss of the Mu family to come to the bridge to recognize." ”
"Tongguang" is digging the ground, and "nightfall" means that the target has been found, no need to dig anymore or continue to "pass the light", Chu Xunyu hid and listened clearly, knowing what they had found, just waiting for the Mu family to confirm, and then they could take the silver and leave directly, but what did they find, which made Chu Xunyu very curious.
Several insect repellent workers in the cave climbed out of the cave with a beaming look and grabbed the rope, and said to everyone: "There is indeed a big stone slab inside, and the patterns on it are the same as those on the Mu family's head paper, so we will wait to get the silver." ”
Chu Xunyu heard it clearly, his eyes narrowed, he decisively pinched the word "soil", and walked directly into the ground, since the insect repellent in the cave had come up, he was not afraid of being discovered for so long, so he could see what they had dug up after working for so long in the afternoon.
Chu Xunyu didn't travel long underground, and soon broke out of the ground, stretched out his head and found that he had arrived in the cave, which was horizontal and vertical, and there were many forks in the road, it seemed that this group of people had excavated in all directions, and they did not find it smoothly for the first time, Chu Xunyu stood in the tunnel and looked, his nose was full of the sour smell of Shaanxi old vinegar, and there was a cave with relatively new soil around it, it seemed that this road was where they found the stone slab, and it was not verbose at the moment, and the cat demon went directly into it, and followed the traces all the way, and found that this cave was oblique downward, and there was no light, it was extremely dark, Chu Xunyu took out the fire fold, and continued to move forward after blowing it upAfter half a cup of tea, I finally saw the "slate" in the mouth of this group of insect repellent craftsmen.
A huge bluestone slab blocked the way, Chu Xunyu touched it with his hand, it was very moist and smooth, there seemed to be some patterns on it, Chu Xunyu looked over by the firelight, and found that there was a pair of double python patterns engraved on it, two pythons devoured each other's tails, and circled together, the python was carved vividly, wearing colorful python patterns, sharp eyes, and some other Taoist symbols were engraved around, Chu Xunyu was very familiar, this is the logo of alchemy in the medical Tao, there are a lot of them in his own home, what is behind this slate? Could it be that it is your own medicine king's mansion?
Chu Xunyu lowered his head and pondered slightly, there are many legends and stories of snakes in history, most of them are evil names, but there is a layer of meaning that represents "immortality". In ancient times, it is said that in order to avoid death after people get old, they will use a kind of witchcraft or witchcraft to let the old man stand behind the door and molt, the whole process will go through seven days and seven nights, and after the old skin is shed, the skin of the person inside becomes round and smooth, white and red, and the whole person is full of energy, rejuvenation. Therefore, in history, there were many people who used snakes to find the way of immortality, so Chu Xunyu speculated that there may have been a cultivator living here, where he alchemized and enlightened according to the meaning of snakes in order to seek immortality.
It's strange to think of this, didn't Boss Mu say that he wouldn't provoke the cultivators, how could he come to dig up the relics of the cultivators inexplicably? When looking at the stone slab carving, it is estimated that it was before and after the Jin Dynasty, and there would be endless social turmoil, more battles and less peace, lack of government control, and there were many people who sought immortality with demonic magic and evil magic, which was very likely to be the result of that time, what did Boss Mu do when he dug it?
Chu Xunyu looked around with a fire fold, and found that this stone slab was huge, and it was still as far as the eye could see, and I didn't know how many places were buried in the soil, but I didn't know if there was any mechanism formation in it, if not, Chu Xunyu was willing to enter through the wall and get a glimpse of the mystery.
At this time, there was a sudden change, Chu Xunyu only felt a shock in his heart, as if there was something dangerous surrounding him, he was taken aback at the moment, turned his head and stared at the pit for a moment, and the next moment, he quickly escaped and hid in the earthen wall next to him, only to feel a cold and damp obedient breath coming, the last time he had this feeling, it was still during the war between the two dynasties when he met the "corpse chaser" in Chen Youliang's army in the land of the two lakes, and used his skills to control the corpse of the dead soldier on the battlefield, Chu Xunyu secretly wondered in his heart, did he bump into the corpse chaser in Xiangxi? Or maybe there's some zombie spooky phenomenon here?
