It turned out that Lame Ghost Face and his group originally planned to enter the ancient tomb through the pit and tunnel opened by Professor Zhang and others. Who knew that two mercenaries died just as they arrived in front of the stone door full of writings?
In addition to Xia Xiaobei, they were accompanied by two Feng Shui masters and an Onmyoji invited from Japan. All three of them told the lame Ghost Face that the stone door could not be opened. If he wanted to enter the tomb, he could only enter the tomb.
Also find a place to dig a hole to get in.
Therefore, a group of them left the corridor and entered the tomb from the same place as us.
As for where they entered the tomb and where they came out and returned to the first robbery cave, even Xia Xiaobei had no idea.
After listening to what Xia Xiaobei said, I asked her: "Then what do you plan to do in the future?"
Xia Xiaobei rolled his eyes at me and said with a "You're stupid" expression: "What else can I do? Of course I go back to school. After all, they gave me two months' salary before, which is a total of 40,000.
It should be enough to pay for my college education!”
I suddenly felt envious of her. She was so good and could still go to college.
"Then what if they come to your school to look for you?" I asked Xia Xiaobei worriedly.
Xia Xiaobei looked at me and blinked: "They didn't know which university I was studying for. They didn't mention it before. Then they found something was wrong with the brother and sister, so they didn't tell them the truth. What's more,
, they might think I’m dead!”
"That's not necessarily true. If Professor Zhang hadn't led them to find a way back into the tomb, they might have returned there. The bushes had been burned, and they would soon have discovered that the previous robbery hole was full of blood.
It's a cover-up, they will definitely go in to check again. If you made such a big hole in the tomb and smoked in it, they will definitely guess that you are not dead." I looked at her and reminded her kindly.
"Oh, yes, why didn't I think of that!" Xia Xiaobei slapped his head fiercely, quickly picked a few kiwis and put them into the pockets of his overalls, jumped down from the tree and said, "Hu Ling,
Come down quickly and let’s leave quickly. If they chase us out, we will be doomed!”
"It shouldn't be so fast, didn't the person before close the door again?" I comforted her while picking some kiwi fruits, put them in my backpack, and climbed down from the tree.
Although we don’t have to worry so much about Lame and the others catching up, the sun is about to set. Staying in the deep mountains and old forests is not an option. Encountering wild animals is enough for both of us, so we should quickly find a way out of here.
good.
Looking up at the sky, I said to Xia Xiaobei: "Let's go, leave here first!"
"Then where are we going?" Xia Xiaobei asked me.#@$&
"I don't know. Let's see if there are any villages nearby. If we find someone's house, charge the phone, and find my friend, it will be easy!" I said and walked down the mountain.
"Hu Ling, how old are you? Why do I feel that you look younger than me, but you are much more mature than me?" Xia Xiaobei asked me curiously as he walked.
"Nineteen." I said, "I should be older than you. How can I be younger than you?"
"I'm also nineteen, born in the year of Sheep, on the first day of August. How about you?" Xia Xiaobei asked me excitedly.
"I am also a Sheep, born on July 14th!" I said.%&(&
"Ha! We are actually only a little bit apart. Let's find a job in a city after we graduate from college. Didn't you say that you grew up with your fourth uncle and grandma? I like old people very much, and I will call you fourth uncle after you.
Grandma! By the way, which university are you in?" Xia Xiaobei almost jumped up with excitement when he heard what I said, and asked me a bunch of questions like a barrage.
I didn't know how to answer her and didn't speak for a long time.
"Hu Ling?" Xia Xiaobei glanced at me uneasily, "Did I say something wrong?"
"No, my fourth uncle and grandma passed away when I was seventeen! I'm just a little envious that you can go to college. I didn't even finish my second year of high school and stopped studying!" I said softly.
"I didn't expect you to be worse off than me! But it's okay, you are so capable, you will definitely be a great gentleman in the future. As soon as I saw you, I felt that you are not an ordinary person!" Xia Xiaobei said.
"Can you still read faces?" I asked her a little strangely.
"Hehe, no way!" Xia Xiaobei laughed dryly and said, "I guessed it! If you were an ordinary person, why would you care so much about me and let me wait for you in that burglar's cave?
Just five days to wait, and the thousand-year-old ghost in the tomb..."
At this point, Xia Xiaobei suddenly stopped talking.
"A thousand-year-old ghost?" I gave her a strange look, "What thousand-year-old ghost? Are you talking about the person who brought us out?"
The black figure was obviously not a human being, but he also said that he was not a ghost, but I could feel him and even hold his hand. I was a little curious about his identity and origin, but I didn't expect to hear Xia Xiaobei's tone.
She actually seemed to vaguely know something.
Because of my eyesight, not only can I not see Qi at all now, I can't even see ordinary souls.
"Um, what, I didn't say anything!" Xia Xiaobei covered his mouth and looked at me with an innocent expression.
"Xia Xiaobei!" I stopped and looked at her with a frown.
"Okay, I did hear Tai Nai tell me something about his origin, but I really can't say it! Otherwise I will hurt Tai Nai! I can only tell you that that person is your destiny and your calamity.
, you will meet him again!”
Is it my destiny and my calamity?
What do you mean? This sentence is too confusing, right?
I wanted to continue asking Xia Xiaobei, but when I saw that she was keeping her secrets secret, I gave up.
My fourth uncle and grandma once told me that the reason why people who understand yin and yang commit three evils and five shortcomings is because they reveal too much secrets. Since she didn't want to say more and said that it would implicate the immortal family, I couldn't ask more questions.
Already.
Next, Xia Xiaobei and I didn't speak for a long time, each thinking about his own thoughts.
The mountain road was very difficult to walk. All kinds of vines were entangled between the trees like spider webs. The wild grass was almost half a person tall. Each of us found a long branch and kept beating the grass while walking down the mountain to avoid
Encountering something like a snake.
The sky gradually darkened, and when it was almost completely dark, the wild grass began to become shorter, with traces of gnawing by livestock, and a vague path appeared faintly on the mountain.
"Follow this path, there should be someone's house not far ahead!" My tired mind and body instantly gained motivation, and I took Xia Xiaobei's hand and started jogging along the mountain road.
