Fifteen years ago, Wang Yunhu, who was originally the deputy of the clan leader, took advantage of that rare opportunity to join forces and successfully ascended to the position of clan leader.

At that time, Wang Yuan's parents had just left and the tea had not yet cooled down.

In order to consolidate his position, no matter what Wang Yunhu thinks in his heart, he must take good care of Wang Yuan, the only bloodline of the previous clan leader, and at the same time exert influence on him since he was a child.

After hiring a mother-in-law to raise Wang Yuan until he was four or five years old, he was pleasantly surprised to find that this evil boy turned out to be a fool.

As a result, the new patriarch, whose status had gradually been consolidated, relaxed his vigilance and stopped paying attention to this completely harmless little fool.

They even removed the mother-in-law and simply left her alone to fend for herself.

Obviously, at that time, Wang Yunhu had not colluded with Ge Daoye to plot the [Owl God's Tomb], nor had he realized the potential value of Wang Yuan.

At most, they are busy eating out the family, dividing up the houses and fields of the long family, and buying people's hearts at the same time.

Therefore, Wang Yuan also had the opportunity to disappear for several days. Whenever the tribe thought that he had been killed by the mountain spirit and wild ghost, he would abide by the agreement with his grandfather and suddenly reappear.

In fact, he came to the "Hometown of the Dead" and went to his cousin Huang Wu.

The two siblings are accustomed to bickering, but the two grew up together and have a great relationship. Huang Wu is also the only person besides her grandfather who knows that Wang Yuan has been playing the role of a fool for more than ten years.

Naturally, the girl would not treat him as an ignorant child.

Hearing Wang Yuan's solemn question, she didn't care to take another breath of Yang Qi, and jumped back into the mirror next to her.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, I held my chin with my delicate white hands and thought seriously for a while.

Then he spat out an answer that made Wang Yuan's body tremble.

"Grandma is silent? It should be... fifteen years ago!

It was probably not long after you were born, no more than ten days at most."

It was probably this question that stirred up the memories that had settled in Huang Wu's heart, so she recounted a period from more than ten years ago:

"Actually, I didn't get along with grandma for too long.

After all, no matter which ghost is alive, is it still a person?

One day about fifteen years ago, I suddenly woke up and found that I was already in a mirror in the "Land of the Dead" and became a ghost in the mirror.

She was also wearing a wedding dress inexplicably.

Fortunately, it is different from those muddy ghosts.

Although most of my memories during my lifetime are also incomplete, and I have forgotten where I lived and what my identity was when I was a human being... I am very lucky to retain my sanity."

"During that time, in the 'Land of the Dead', I also saw my aunt who was about to give birth, my uncle, and Grandpa Wang who had a very cold and stern expression.

But they were all in a hurry, and every time they came to talk to grandma, they would close the door and not let me hear, and grandma was always worried.

Then something happened not long after.”

The beautiful girl in the mirror raised her slender hand and tapped her fingers in the air. It seemed that it hit the mirror from the inside, making a "dong dong dong" sound.

"It's a pity that I can't leave these mirrors in the 'Land of the Dead'. Even with the reflection in my eyes, you are the only one who can possess me and absorb the yang energy.

So I don't know exactly what happened at that time.

All I know is that after grandma came back alone that day with an ugly face, she directly returned to her true form and told the maids not to disturb her anymore."

"Sure enough, a major event did happen fifteen years ago that affected our entire family."

After hearing Huang Wu's words, the broken puzzle piece in Wang Yuan's mind became complete again.

Based on the current clues, we can almost conclude:

That year, my parents, grandfather, and grandmother must have been actively or passively involved in a huge crisis related to the [Tomb of the Owl God].

Then most of them have accidents.

You know, in the mouths of Wang and Cheng.

The Wang family was sent here by the Shrine Supervisor and Dalingsi precisely to guard the [Owl God's Tomb], which was wreaking havoc on Beimang Mountain and nearby counties.

It is reasonable to infer that the guardians of the [Owl God's Tomb], in addition to the Wang clan members who are just mortals, are most likely also their own grandmother Long Huai Granny, who is the deity of the society.

In that incident that happened on the day of King Yili's great sacrifice fifteen years ago, although they paid an extremely painful price, the damage caused by [Owl God's Tomb] still intensified.

It is also very likely that it indirectly contributed to Wang Yunhu and Ge Daoye's secret plan against the [Owl God's Tomb].

Taking me, a survivor of fifteen years ago, to sacrifice at the tomb. On the surface, I am dedicated to the public, but privately, there must be some unspeakable benefits!

At this time, Huang Wu frowned slightly and continued:

"There is another strange thing that happened just the day after grandma returned.

A group of private soldiers from the Luoyang Prince's Palace, carrying the [King's Order Flag] belonging to the contemporary Luoyang Prince, pulled down my grandma's ancient Sophora japonica temple.

The leaves of the Sophora japonica also withered and turned yellow overnight, and then the grandma became completely silent.

If it hadn't been that the Sophora japonica has been half withered and half prosperous over the years, and still responded from time to time, I would have thought that grandma had completely fallen."

"King of Luoyang?"

Wang Yuan chewed the name and almost recognized Cocoon's name.

[King's Order Flag] can govern the army and the people. When used here, it is equivalent to the military talisman in the hands of the princes of the Great Yan Dynasty.

What happened fifteen years ago was 100% related to the [Owl God's Tomb], and it was expected that it would involve the descendants of the Yili King Zhou Yi from the Luoyang Palace.

"Didn't grandma leave any words before she fell silent?"

Even now, he is still a little unwilling to give up. Grandpa is like this, and grandma is like this too.

Knowing that danger is approaching step by step, but only seeing half of it is really frustrating.

Sensing Wang Yuan's urgency, Huang Wu lowered her eyes, seeming to awaken some memories deep in her heart that she was reluctant to recall, and said with some hesitation:

"Grandma only left one sentence that I couldn't understand at all.

Taboo: Whatever you say must be known!

Don't ask, don't think, don't talk, don't pass it on, and don't explore. After An Xin has been hiding in the mirror for fifteen years, our two families have paid enough for the people at the foot of Beimang Mountain."

‘Everything that is said must be known?

This is... one of the taboos that needs to be followed in [Weird Tomb of the Owl God] to actively kill people?!’

Huang Wu didn't understand what she meant, but Wang Yuan immediately understood what was going on.

The so-called "owl" is a ferocious bird of prey that resembles an owl. It has sharp hearing and is best at hunting at night.

[Tomb of the Owl God] has this weird characteristic when killing people, which is totally justified.

At the same time, I finally understood the reason why grandpa and grandma kept silent.

Precisely because the more you know, the more dangerous you are.

What they did and what secrets were involved were not told to the two siblings.

This also reminded him of what happened when he interrogated Wang Cheng and the two men in the royal tomb.

Maybe it was because two people who didn't know this taboo openly discussed "The Owl God Stealing Food" and "The Tomb of the Owl God" under the eyes of others.

This caused the man-eating [Weird] to go berserk in advance.

However, Wang Yuan also knew that there were definitely not a few people who knew the concept of [Owl God's Tomb].

Those Wang clan members, Ge Daoye, the files left by Yu Longzhi and the Shrine Superintendent...

If just saying the words "Owl God's Tomb" would result in being eaten out of thin air, it goes without saying that the Wang family would have been eaten up long ago.

The secrets Grandpa and Grandma kept should be far more than that.

This pool of water is deeper than I imagined!

‘Let me hide in Daling Village and let my cousin hide in the mirror of the ‘Land of the Dead’.

They all agreed that as long as we can carefully avoid the two-hundred-year festival in one month, we can avoid danger.

There’s no need to know and there’s no need to take risks.’

'If nothing happens, the negative plan formulated by the two elders may indeed come true.

But the current situation is that if nothing happens, an accident will happen soon.

Wang Yunhu and Ge Daoye made it clear that they wanted to make something big happen.

"The Little Book of Life and Death" doesn't lie. Up to now, the [destiny] described in the book is still 'unfortunate'. If I don't take the initiative to do something, I will never be able to resist it.

Now I can only be more careful. Even if I learn the secret, I must not tell it to my mouth!'

Seeing the uncertainty on Wang Yuan's face, Huang Wu couldn't help but look suspicious:

"Wang Xiaoyuan, can you tell me now why you suddenly asked this question?

Tell me honestly, are you hiding something from your sister?"

Remembering the taboo of [Owl God's Tomb], Wang Yuan quickly denied it and changed the topic:

"It's nothing, I'm just curious.
