Zhu Sunling continued to look at the book in front of her... the notes written by the tomb robber.
In "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", the story about touching Captain Jin is miraculous, but in fact a lot of it is fictitious. At least, using a black donkey's hooves to restrain Zongzi (a lingo used by Captain Touching Jin for ghosts in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp") seems to be
It is completely fabricated by Tian Xia Ba Chang. The location of Yinmen Village is located at the junction of Hunan and Hubei, and from the perspective of Feng Shui, it is a very suitable location for burials. According to the research of notes, it is believed that there is a late Qing Dynasty hidden here.
's burial place.
The tombs of any feudal dynasty in China are afraid of encountering tomb robbers, so various anti-theft methods are used in tombs. It is no wonder that tomb robbery novels like "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" are so popular.
"People in this village covet the treasures in late Qing tombs, so they choose to rob the tombs."
It is not difficult for Zhu Sunling to understand this. This village is located in a remote place, in the middle of poor mountains and rivers. It does not even have water or electricity. It is difficult for the villagers to make a living by farming. Young people can also choose to go to the city to work, but the village chief is getting old.
It is understandable that some people have the evil idea of robbing graves in order to escape poverty.
How he got this tomb robbing notebook is unknown. But what is certain is that he did follow the contents of the notebook!
"what should we do?"
Mirui Yi is still lack of opinion as usual, and even the more decisive Cui Minghe can't make up his mind to go to this tomb. If the village chief and others go there because of tomb robbery, then...if they go again, will they go there?
court death?
"If we don't go, we will all die."
But Zhu Sunling did not hesitate for too long on this point.
Her top priority is not to survive the exam scene, but to complete the exam paper. She has every reason to believe that the key to the answers to many unfinished questions in the exam paper lies in the secret tomb of the late Qing Dynasty.
…
Dark, deep cave depths.
silence……
Deathly silence.
Gao Ying first tied the rope to his body, and then several candidates grabbed the rope from above and slowly entered the tomb. He had been lowered for nearly a hundred meters, and finally...his feet landed on the ground.
He raised the candle holder in his hand, and also brought spare matches with him. Before, he was worried about whether the sound of striking a match would be loud, but he didn't expect that Jiao Chaoming boldly picked up the match and struck a fire. Some of his
Gao Ying's style can't help but remind him of that headless female ghost. Is he brave and crazy, or is he really not afraid of death?
The next person who came down was Ji Yixuan. At present, not all candidates dare to come in. After all, there is a tomb underneath! So the final decision was that Gao Ying, Ji Yixuan, and Jiao Chaoming went to the tomb, while Shen Junhao, Cheng Ge, and Lin Jia stayed above.
Gao Ying speculated that Shen Junhao planned to wait for Gao Ying to come up so that he could copy the answer once the skeleton closed its eyes.
Gao Ying, who was holding the candlestick, was responsible for walking in front, while Ji Yixuan and Jiao Chaoming were carrying spare candlesticks.
Ji Yixuan is different from Gao Ying. He has watched "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp". He clearly remembers the sentence "People light candles, ghosts blow out lanterns". Now, he pays attention to the swaying candlestick in Gao Ying's hand.
If there is a fire, I am worried that the candle will go out. If the candle goes out, it will be a very scary thing in this underground place without light.
To be honest, if you read those tomb robbing novels carefully, you will know that going to the tomb requires sufficient preparation. They went to the tomb rashly, really looking for death. But... they had no choice, they had no choice, and there were still too many exam papers that they had not completed.
Gao Ying carefully compared the unfinished test papers and was convinced that there were still many test questions that needed to be answered in the underground tomb below! Here, they could find the truth. Why on earth did the villagers... feel the need to keep quiet?
Curse, why did the deserted village turn into a dead world?
This tomb is really eerily quiet. Even if you don't hold your breath deliberately, you can't hear any sound. In the dead silence of the tomb, under the guidance of candlelight, several different underground forks appear.
Among the multiple-choice questions in the examination paper, there is a question that reads: "When a candidate is in a dark place where there is no daylight, and different paths appear in front of him, which one should he choose?" The four options given can be eliminated.
There are many side roads.
But even if the test paper eliminates some of the forks for them, they still don't know which fork they should take.
This is very frustrating.
Gao Ying looked at the different forks, but he slowly walked towards each underground fork mentioned in the multiple-choice question, lighting the ground with a candlestick.
Then he suddenly saw in front of one of the forks, a cloth shoe not far ahead!
Gao Ying immediately walked up!
That cloth shoe is obviously not a product of ancient times. And although the shoe looks old, it is definitely not an antique.
These are the villagers' shoes!
"Here it is!"
The four forked roads corresponded to the different directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. Although this place was already underground, Gao Ying remembered the direction in which the sun rose clearly. He quickly filled in the answers to the multiple-choice questions on the exam paper easily.
At this time, Ji Yixuan and Jiao Chaoming also came up. Looking at the shoes in front of the fork in the road, they also understood and borrowed a candlestick from Gao Ying to complete the answers to the exam paper.
This also means that ahead is...their destination.
And his next decision was to mark the route forward. Otherwise, it would be unthinkable to get lost in this underground tomb. They must return here and let Shen Junhao and the others pull him and others up. There was Shen Junhao last time
The candidates who survived the monthly exam are on top, so Gao Ying can feel more at ease.
Afterwards, Gao Ying came to the wall, picked up a pen and was about to make a mark...
But he saw that there was a word written on the wall.
"bright"!
This is obviously the word that was written recently.
What does Ming... mean?
Is this the tomb of the Ming Dynasty? No...that shouldn't be the case...
But at this time, Gao Ying suddenly discovered that the handwriting of this word was very familiar!
(Yes! It’s the same words as on that piece of paper!)
At this time, Ji Yixuan and Shen Junhao also came up. When they saw the word "明", they were a little surprised.
"Could it be written by a villager?" This was Ji Yixuan's first reaction.
However, Gao Ying shook his head.
"It's her...the girl who wrote that note."
Female candidates from K examination room!
That female examinee has also been here!
Gao Ying raised the candlestick to illuminate the front. The fork was only wide enough for two people to walk side by side, and the height was less than two meters. He had no idea what was ahead.
"let's go!"
Gao Ying said these words so softly that even he himself could hardly hear them.
So, the three of them began to move forward slowly. Due to the weak candlelight, Ji Yixuan and Shen Junhao were almost close to Gao Ying's body. Here, they felt even more depressed and terrifying than in the deserted village.
As a result... after walking for about five minutes, this fork in the road still didn't end.
As they advanced a little bit, Gao Ying's hand holding the candlestick began to tremble.
Sudden!
In front of the candlelight, two suspended black shadows appeared!
Gao Ying and the others were so horrified by this scene that they almost subconsciously took several steps back!
But at this moment, Gao Ying suddenly remembered a question in the exam paper!
Two... dark shadows?
He looked at the hanging black shadow and boldly took a few steps forward.
In front of the candlelight, he suddenly saw that the two suspended black figures were two bodies hung high, wearing the Qing Dynasty official uniforms that are very common in Qing palace dramas... rotting corpses!
Gao Ying swallowed and remembered the question in the exam paper, "If you see two hanging corpses, what do the corpses look like?"
This is a multiple choice question!
Gao Ying remembers the options of each test question very clearly. Option A is that the corpses are facing each other, option B is that the corpses are in opposite directions, and option C is the same as before, with two corpses facing forward at the same time.
As for option D...
Gao Ying gritted his teeth and said, "Let's continue... move forward!"
Ji Yixuan and Jiao Chaoming also thought of the multiple-choice question. So... they understood Gao Ying's intention.
So... the three of them stepped towards the two hanging corpses at the same time...
