Chapter 683 Juanpa
When I opened this flat iron box, I already guessed that it was a relic left by Junior Brother Ghost King, but I couldn't rule out that it belonged to the old fox himself. As expected, the iron box was not equipped with a mechanism. When I opened the lid, I saw a white Juanpa fold.
It's neatly covered on top, and important things should be hidden underneath.
I took out the Juanpa. Bai Xueying and Chen Shuiyao stopped talking and stared at each other. I carefully held the Juanpa in my hand to prevent it from decaying into powder due to its age. Fortunately, my worries were unnecessary.
, the Juanpa was well preserved. Underneath the Juanpa was a pair of scraps of paper, which made the buddy immediately startled. He was almost immediately sure that it was Old Fox's junior brother. He poured the scraps of paper onto the ground with his hands, and half a jade appeared at the bottom.
spoon!
I took out the jade key and took a look. I didn’t need to look at it a second time. It was exactly the same pair as the half jade key in Luoyang. When put together, it was a complete key. But I was puzzled. They deliberately used a jade key like this.
The key was split into two halves and both were buried with the body. What was their purpose? Is it the key to unlocking the treasure?
This reminds me of the treasures in the Secret Cave of Mirror Mountain. The old fox looted them all. Even if he built a few extravagant tombs, he would not be able to spend them all. He would not bury the remaining treasures in iron boxes.
The scraps of paper are the treasure map, and the jade key is the key to the treasure house. After thinking about it, I feel that the plot is a bit cliché, but clichéd methods are often what people tend to ignore.
Chen Shuiyao frowned and looked at half a jade spoon and said, "Why is the jade ornament still a broken piece?" She looked at the scraps of paper on the ground and suddenly lost interest. In fact, she didn't care about the treasure, but whether it was related to Bai Xueying's identity.
But when I saw the Juanpa, my eyes lit up again and I said, "Look, is there a spell on the Juanpa?"
I first stuffed the scraps of paper into the iron box to prevent the breeze brought by my sleeves from blowing off a few pieces, and then the picture would not be put together. After closing the lid, I opened the Juanpa and saw only the top
It was written all over in small regular script. This person was quite talented and well-spoken, and in the early days of the Republic of China, he liked to use classical Chinese when writing articles. It was very difficult to read. After just two glances, Chen Shuiyao pulled him over. As a result, she
After just one glance, Juanpa was returned to me.
This girl has never read books seriously since she was a child. It would be good if she could recognize a few words, let alone such a difficult to pronounce and jerky classical Chinese text. I read it out in a low voice and explained to them both what it meant. There is a record on it.
A person's life is like an epitaph, condensing the whole life of the deceased into this article.
This person's surname is Jiang Biluo, which sounds like a woman's name. Looking down, it turns out that she is a girl. She was born in a wealthy family in Shanxi. Later, due to the war, the family fled to the south and was separated from their family on the way. Another lonely person
She fled back to her hometown in Shanxi and was taken in by Wan Changfeng and entered the Evil Spirit Path. She was the only female disciple in the Evil Spirit Path and received the care of many senior brothers, especially the short Chen Yan.
Jiang Biluo briefly mentioned the splitting of the evil spirit path. She didn’t say any reason. She just said that after the death of her master, the evil spirit path fell into pieces. She followed the ghost king to leave Shanxi and traveled around the country. This article mainly records the story of their brothers and sisters during the war.
What evil happened to the three of them, and they also participated in warlord battles. The description of entering the Mirror Mountain Secret Cave and Longtoushan Ancient Tomb is also very clear. At that time, the three of them plus Ye Xiaohun nearly wiped out the entire army when fighting the monster.
Finally, the ghost king subdued the demon and took away all the treasures.
Later, I entered the Longtoushan Ancient Tomb. It was too dangerous inside. The Ghost King went in alone. She and another senior brother escaped from the tunnel in a hurry. This is consistent with the information I got. The last mention of the Night Demon Cave is where the Ghost King comes.
Before his death, he found this place in order to obtain a mysterious spell. The specific spell was not stated clearly above. They succeeded and returned to Henan, whereupon the Ghost King passed away. According to the Ghost King's last will and testament, he was buried, and he broke up with another senior brother and took him with him.
Following this road map to the real tomb of the Ghost King, we returned to Night Demon Cave again.
She said that she was tired of the world and the struggle for power among the sects. Only in this quiet place could she enjoy her life peacefully. She would be gone here, but I felt something was wrong. She did not mention how she died.
Enjoying a peaceful life here, it seems that there is a secret hidden in the words. Could it be said that she has never died? I couldn't help but raise my head and look at the bones, and suddenly it dawned on me.
This situation of bones growing new flesh may be a mysterious method of resurrection after death. It may be in the same vein as cultivating immortals. Taoism has a saying of corpse dissolution. Her so-called peaceful life is to be resurrected and become an immortal.
The pursuit is the same as that of the Demon of Mirror Mountain.
But no matter how she came back from the dead, it must have been a very painful process. It must have been hundreds of years since she died, and only a little new flesh has grown on her bones now. I'm afraid it will take another few hundred years to fully regain her human form.
In fact, I think that if she and the Demon of Mirror Mountain do not enter the human world after resurrection, it would not matter even if they live in the cave for tens of thousands of years. They are afraid that they will harm others if they enter the human world, and set off a craze for the pursuit of immortality.
There was no mention of the birthplace of the Six Animal Gods, which disappointed Bai Xueying and Chen Shuiyao. The ghost king's tomb and half a jade spoon were not of interest to them at all. I threw the Juanpa on the lamp plate and put the flat iron box away.
Inside the bag. Now that I know that the scraps of paper are indeed the topographic map cut from the Ghost King’s real tomb, I regret giving it to Cao Yingfei. But it is better than falling into the hands of Song Zhaoqi and An Zerong. There is still a chance to get it again.
Came back.
Another half hour passed, and we saw that the time limit for the Flame Fire Pill to lose its effectiveness was getting closer and closer, but the insect swarm on the stone platform still refused to retreat. We looked at each other, and we all seemed a little discouraged. I thought to myself, forget it.
We got clues to the Ghost King’s true tomb, but what’s the use of going out without our lives?
Just as we were grieving in our hearts, suddenly there was a bright light in front of our eyes, and a strong white light came from behind. The three of us were refreshed at the same time. Could it be that someone had come in? Since he could come in, it means he was not an ordinary person, and there was a way to take us out. But
When we looked back, we were surprised but also disappointed.
The light is emitted from the stone wall behind me (according to my sense of direction, it is east). I don’t know how the light source is formed. It is dazzling. This kind of light is too strong and will blind the eyes. The light beam goes from east to west.
Pointing to the stone wall, the halo is clearly visible. This allows us to see clearly that the distance between the east and west of the cave is about three hundred meters. Where the light hits is a piece of white jade, with a clear gap from the surrounding bluestone.
