Hearing these three words, my interest was immediately piqued. Why did the fox build a tomb?
I took the phone and walked outside the door, and then slowly asked Wang Xiaoran: "What fox tomb? What's going on? Is it a tomb specially built for foxes?"
Wang Xiaoran said: "Yes, this case is in the Taihang area of the North China Branch. There is a place called Chaotiangou in the Taihang Mountains. The ditch is very wide and has a fan-shaped opening. The inside of the ditch is particularly magical, and it is above the ditch all year round. Surrounded by clouds and mist, it looks like a small sky, so it is called Chaotiangou."
"There are also legends that immortals live there, and some even say that it is the Nantian Gate, the gate to heaven."
"Anyway, there are many legends about that place, and the fox tomb we are looking for is in the deep Chaotian ditch."
"And the reason why we are looking for the fox is..."
At this point, Wang Xiaoran suddenly stopped, and I asked him anxiously why.
He said on the phone: "I won't tell you these things for now. Come to me at the Tangfu Tea House in the provincial capital and I will show you something. Then you will know that we are going to the Fox Tomb."
Wang Xiaoran betrayed me, which made me very comfortable, but also made me unable to stay at home any longer.
After hanging up the phone, I told my mother that there was something going on over there in the provincial capital. We couldn't live at home anymore and had to go to the provincial capital.
Although she was reluctant to let go, she didn't hold back too much. She just kept telling me to take care of myself and not to be cold or hungry.
No matter how reluctant we were to leave, we still had to say goodbye. Nangong Fanxong and I still left.
On the way back to the provincial capital, Nangong Fanzong said with emotion: "It seems that your mother has regarded Mai Xiaorou as her daughter-in-law!"
I smiled and said, "Why are you jealous?"
I said this completely casually without thinking much about it, but Nangong Fanxong suddenly became a little angry: "Jealous, jealous of you, a stinky gangster, you think too highly of yourself!"
I was afraid that Nangong Fan would hurt me and I wouldn't be able to stop, so I quickly said: "Stop, stop, stop, I made a mistake, I'm a bitch, please show mercy, show mercy!"
Nangong Fan was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "You look so mean now!"
Along the way, Nangong Fan and I didn't talk about unhappy things anymore. We all talked about the Fox Tomb case. I asked her if she knew about the Fox Tomb case, and she said, "I've never heard of it."
It seems that my idea of getting news from her has failed.
When we arrived in the provincial capital, it was only around three o'clock in the afternoon, so we went directly to Tangfu Teahouse.
When we got here, Tang Xian warmly welcomed us upstairs, and then Shangguan Hong led us into a box.
After entering, we found that Wang Xiaoran was playing with a wooden fox on the tea table. Under the control of Wang Xiaoran, the wooden fox with a mechanism jumped off the tea table and wagged its tail at me and Nangong Fanxong, as if to say something to me. We welcome you.
The tea on the tea table was already cold.
Having said that she was very discerning, she immediately said: "You guys chat first, I will go get you some hot tea."
Wang Xiaoran then said to Shangguan Hong: "Sorry to trouble you, Miss Shangguan!"
Shangguan Hong smiled at Wang Xiaoran and said, "You're welcome!"
After Shangguan Hong went out, Wang Xiaoran controlled the trap fox back into his own hands and said, "How about my trap fox? Can it still fall under the eyes of these two fellow Taoists?"
I said casually: "Very cute!"
Wang Xiaoran was a little embarrassed when he heard what I said. Nangong Fanzong smiled and said, "Don't listen to that idiot. Brother Wang Dao's trap fox has at least eighty-one traps hidden in it. If used in battle, I'm afraid it will explode."
It's such a huge room that it would be difficult for a general Heavenly Master in the tribulation period to deal with it, right?"
Wang Xiaoran immediately smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Nangong has good eyesight. He can see more than just the cuteness of my clever fox!"
Hearing Wang Xiaoran say this, I suddenly blushed.
I then used the power of my mind to carefully examine the mechanism fox, and immediately found that the structure inside was so complicated that I couldn't understand it at all. I couldn't tell how many types of mechanisms there were.
At this time, Shangguan Hong happened to bring tea, which relieved my embarrassment. I took the opportunity to change the subject and said: "Brother Wang Dao, didn't you say you wanted to show us something? What is it? Isn't it you, a clever fox?"
Bar?"
Wang Xiaoran quickly shook his head and said: "Of course not, this is what I am showing you!"
After Shangguan Hong left the box, Wang Xiaoran took out a jade small green fox sculpture from the backpack on the chair next to him. The fox sculpture was very abstract, and at a glance, he could tell it was an object from long ago.
Wang Xiaoran said: "This jade fox came from the fox tomb in Chaotiangou. It was revealed by two tomb robbers. However, the two tomb robbers have now become seriously ill and died, and they had exactly the same strange disease."
!”
I asked what the strange disease was, and Wang Xiaoran said: "When they were dying, green fox fur began to grow on their bodies, and their mouths began to become pointed, as if the person was about to turn into a big fox.
But they didn't actually turn into foxes, but died long after their bodies became covered with fur."
Speaking of which, Wang Xiaoran added: "In addition to the two tomb robbers, there was also a man who took the jade fox from the tomb robbers. He also suffered from the same disease. However, because he was from the Liu family, he was arrested by the Xiao family of the North China Branch.
He was saved and did not die."
"This case also started because of him. My master and master's wife have been living in North China all year round, so after my master heard about it, he asked me to take over the case and asked me to work on this case with you, as your 20th
Two cases.”
I asked Wang Xiaoran if we could go meet the Liu family who had a strange disease.
Wang Xiaoran smiled and said: "Of course, because of this case, he will also bring a few people with us, but I have told you in advance that that person is a member of the Liu family's worldly sect and is very knowledgeable about things in the supernatural world.
You only know a little bit about us and don’t know our identities, so we try to be humble and don’t be too ostentatious, you know.”
I asked Wang Xiaoran why.
He only said two words: "Low-key!"
Nangong Fanxong said: "I will not show humility in front of that. If he offends me, I will fight back without hesitation."
Wang Xiaoran smiled and continued: "It's up to you. By the way, this sapphire fox is not simple. The Liu family is said to have discovered the secret of immortality from it, so he is so crazy. But I studied it for a few days and found out
No clues related to immortality have been found. Take a look and see what clues you can find."
I did some research and found that there was nothing special about the sapphire fox except that it had a lot of spiritual energy. I always felt that it was too much to say that it had the secret of immortality.
Nangong Fancong looked at it for a while but shook his head and said, "I can't see any clue."
I asked Wang Xiaoran: "Didn't the Liu family tell us what clues were related to immortality?"
Wang Xiaoran smiled and said: "How could he be willing to tell us such a precious clue? He was able to leave this sapphire fox to me for a few days to study for the sake of my master. If my master hadn't come forward, this sapphire fox would have been lost to me."
I can’t even get it in my hands.”
I asked Wang Xiaoran when we would set off.
He said: "Let's go early tomorrow morning. The time is also set by the Liu family."
I'm used to having the final say when it comes to cases, but now I suddenly have to listen to someone else, and I'm still an ordinary businessman, so I feel a little unhappy.
Next, we drank tea for a while at Tang Fu Tea House and studied the sapphire fox.
When Nangong Fanxong and I were about to leave Tangfu Teahouse, Wang Xiaoran said to me: "We have two purposes of going to the Fox Tomb this time. One is to find out the reasons why those people got strange diseases; the other is to find out whether there is really
If there is any secret method of immortality, it will never be allowed to spread. Any secret method of immortality is forbidden by heaven!"
"Because this world does not need immortality. Even the most powerful people will die one day. Even the master of supernatural beings has his own lifespan."
"So, ordinary people are not allowed to break this rule."
Nangong Fancong added at this time: "So, maybe there is a loophole in the fox's tomb?"
Wang Xiaoran nodded and said: "You can say that, but whether it really exists or not, we have to wait until we go to investigate to find out!"
Wang Xiaoran paused for a moment and continued: "By the way, a group of monks have already visited the Fox Tomb. They are all Celestial Masters who established their sect and have passed through the tribulation period. All of them have gone and never come back!"
Speaking of the Celestial Masters who have never returned, I suddenly remembered the last case of the Bronze Arrow. Several Celestial Masters were also missing in that case. We seemed to have forgotten to ask the general Duan Ruikai where those Celestial Masters had gone!
This time there are heavenly masters missing again. No matter what, we must find out the whereabouts of those heavenly masters, regardless of life or death! (To be continued)
