Chapter 321 Tomb Palace Information
Not long after everyone had packed up, it really started to rain.
The sun could not be seen in the early morning, and now it is even more cloudy and dense with raindrops, hitting the soil bit by bit.
“It's going to be raining sooner or later, but it's going to rain now. It's such a shame.” Shijiu didn't want to participate in the direct and weird competition between Yu Xing and Carlos, so she stood by the door early and lost her temper at God.
Not long after she stood there, there was a rumble in the sky, thunder began, and the rain suddenly poured down.
"Fuck." Shijiu rolled his eyes, walked back with his pocket in his pocket, and sat down: "Okay, just wait."
The team has an umbrella, but in the dangerous mountain forest, the umbrella is only suitable for protecting the team from the rain when it stops. If they want to march, holding an umbrella is too cumbersome, and the view is blocked in rainy days, which is too unsafe.
The rain in the mountains is regular and irregular. Sometimes it rains for a few hours, sometimes it rains for several days in a row. Only people who live at the foot of the mountain all year round can guess the time.
There is obviously no permanent population in Chongyin Mountain, so only a few people can say with certainty when the rain will stop.
Fortunately, there are only a few "minority people" in the team.
"Lin, aren't you a geography student? Look at the environment and make some guesses?" Yunika leaned on the pile of luggage with a lazy posture, combing her golden curls with her hands.
The bandage on her abdomen has been changed, and she looks very energetic, as if she is not in pain.
Lin, who has always been cold-tempered, actually blushed a little when he saw Yunika. He turned his gaze away and said, "The terrain of Chongyin Mountain is too complicated. I have not done any measurements and I have no data, so I can't calculate it."
Yunika said "Oh" and looked at another middle-aged man: "What about Will? Can you do some divination?"
Will is the fortune teller in the team. He has deep features, a high nose, and natural dark brown hair. He is tall and tall.
Will was not too fond of Unika. He looked at the dark clouds in the sky and listened to the patter of rain, feeling quite relaxed.
The air pressure has been low these days and people can't breathe. Once it rains, it will be much easier later on.
He said: "It can be divined, but there is thunder, and it is probably a shower. When I get the result of the divine, maybe the rain will stop."
"People who often do divination, even if they don't specialize in divination, their premonitions are very accurate." Carlos came from behind to pick up the conversation and said with a smile, "I believe what Will said will come true. We can wait a little longer, and it will start as soon as the rain stops. Set off."
"Just in time, can you help me fill in some information during this time?" Yu Xing, who had just laughed at Carlos, also followed up, with a normal expression, as if he was a serious person.
Even if it hadn't rained, he would have gotten the information about the tomb on the road while everyone was awake. Otherwise, he would have taken people into the water when he got to Live Tail Lake, and he always felt like he was missing a bargaining chip.
"San doesn't know this yet?" Yunika looked lazily, playing with the ends of her hair. The ends were raised, which was quite tempting. Unfortunately, the people in the team had long been accustomed to the temptation and immunity she released all the time. She is already very strong, but the newcomer Yu Xing will not take her seriously.
Yu Xing smiled at her. He knew from casual gossip that this woman was a social butterfly. She was very popular among the men in the team. She also openly had relationships with five or six people that went beyond friendship, but she was not anyone's girlfriend. .
She is the legendary person who only enjoys happiness and does not need others to take responsibility. This way of life is not easy to evaluate and cannot be wrong. As long as she does not hook up with someone who has a family and a girlfriend, there will be no problem.
Yu Xing knew that this woman was probably going to test him out. He had no interest in her anyway, and he didn't intend to make any mess.
"Yes, sister, I'm very curious about your previous experiences around various ancestral halls. Now that I've been invited to join the team, you don't have to guard against me, right?" He is much better-looking than Yunika. I believe Yunika Ka himself is not too confident. If you know that he doesn't have this intention, don't talk to him coquettishly in the future.
“Of course, I promised you that I would share information with you.” Carlos patted the dust on his sleeves and looked around at his teammates. No one showed any objection.
He previously proposed that a friend who participated in the Coffin Village Incident was very powerful. When he wanted to bring him into the team, some people disagreed, thinking that trusting and accepting outsiders too easily would only lead to increased instability within the team. , and there is insufficient tacit understanding between them, which may lead to bad things in times of crisis.
But Carlos persisted and used his eloquence to convince most people. Yu Xing's reminder to him this time was originally very vague, and it was all due to Carlos's own high understanding, but in the team, he also gave all the credit to Yu Fortunately, the last voice of opposition was gone.
Of course, Carlos is not a good person. He just puts efficiency first. The chance of survival with Yu Xing is higher than without Yu Xing, so he must pull Yu Xing over. If he becomes an opponent, it will really give him a drink. .
It's just a new teammate. In the past, when we went to the tomb separately, we would hire helpers whom we didn't know at all. It's good to think about it.
Uncle Zhang is the biggest here, and he always asks for his opinion when making decisions. After Carlos said this, Uncle Zhang was the first to speak.
In the sound of the rain, Uncle Zhang's voice was a little distorted, and it sounded like a bit of memory and nostalgia in his ears: "Our team was assembled half a year ago, that is, what Carlos and you have experienced After the Coffin Village incident—to be precise, some of us have known each other for many years. It was only because of this incident that we formed a fixed team with a common goal. Regarding this, I am still very grateful to this Tomb Palace. It reunited me with many old friends I had separated from when I was young.”
The old friends he was talking about were two people from a family of tomb robbers. One was a man with glasses, and the other was a somewhat decadent middle-aged man who had not had much contact with Yu Xing.
The middle-aged man laughed, his voice vicissitudes of life but powerful: "Isn't it true? It's so difficult to hire Zhang Chengyuan now. I can't even afford the high-priced one. How dare I come to you again."
The man with glasses patted him: "Nonsense, you obviously didn't dare to see him before." Yu Xing raised his eyebrows with interest. Shijiu was not interested in playing riddles with them. Everyone present had a close relationship. Everyone knew who was who, so she pointed it out directly: "Master Li and Uncle Zhang fell in love with the same woman when they were young, and they fought for several years. Later, the woman chose Master Li, and Uncle Zhang left. Who knows, Master Li and Uncle Zhang left." Not long after we got together, the woman found out that she was looking for someone to take over, so she got angry and broke up with her. "
Master Li is a decadent man. Master Li Zhiming is famous in the northern part of the world. He looks a few years younger than Uncle Zhang.
Shijiu looked at the indifferent expressions of the two uncles and snickered: "Master Li feels embarrassed. He and his good brothers have been fighting over something like this for several years, and almost caused a big conflict. He has no shame." I went to Uncle Zhang and insisted that it would be too expensive to invite him to the grave now."
Mr. Li coughed: "Nineteen, why are you talking so much? You're going off topic."
Shijiu rolled her eyes at him, then brought the topic back up in person, and said to Yu Xing: "After the incident in your Coffin Village was exposed, Mr. Li noticed a tomb recorded in the family history, and conducted an on-site inspection. , they discovered the ancestral hall in the forest and confirmed that it was not the tomb in the records. At that time, Yunika also came from abroad to join in the fun and discovered the true purpose of the ancestral hall. She also deduced that there was more than one such ancestral hall. She collided with Mr. Li's team. "The two sides discussed it and reached preliminary cooperation."
"I have seen that ancestral hall on the murals of another tomb palace. The owner of the tomb is a fan of the demonic path. The cemetery he designed himself pays tribute to the demonic path. There are many elements of flowers, insects, and bird corpses in it. These are all elements. The legendary demon's favorite thing. "Yunika is the original team member, and she should explain the first part, "I saw the ancestral hall in Coffin Village, and learned about the scene of the resurrection of the dead in Coffin Village. I have already guessed that it is related to the famous Demon Dao."
"If I can follow the clues and find the big tomb, I will definitely make rapid progress in my historical research on that period. I don't want to miss it." Yunica smiled and looked at Carlos, "So, after reaching a cooperation with Mr. Li, After that, I found Carlos. Originally I just wanted to interview the victim, but I didn't expect that Carlos was not a simple person. "
Carlos turned around and said in a way that only a deducer could understand: "That's when I started to follow up on this matter. I didn't do anything else during this period. I focused on it and it felt like time flew by. "
His tone was casual, and others could not detect anything unusual.
Yu Xing heard that after Carlos arrived in Coffin Village, he had almost always been involved in investigator deduction games and had almost never participated in other types of deduction games. Time flows faster here than in the real world. The last time Yu Xing came was only a month or two ago, and half a year has passed in this world.
A playing card appeared in Carlos' fingers at some point. He couldn't help but play the cards and said, "I heard it was a big tomb. I was also very interested, so I joined the team. Master Li found it." Lin came to calculate the location of the second ancestral hall. There was too little information at first, and it took Lin more than a month to find a rough idea. I went with Mr. Li's team, Unika and Lin, and we went around the ancestral hall. Horrible incidents similar to the resurrection of the dead also occurred.”
“Tell me about it?” Yu Xing asked.
“It was originally the outskirts of a small town, and there were not many people there. But the municipal plan planned to develop the suburbs, so the construction team drove all the way there and disappeared near the ancestral hall.”
"Later on, people kept disappearing there, and the townspeople were saying that the construction team woke up the people on the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall. After we rushed there, we found an extra mass grave not far from the ancestral hall. You can see the mass graves at night. Bodies in the graves crawled out of their graves and wandered around."
"People from the construction team are among them, and there are many people who have recently disappeared. They will light candles they got from nowhere at night, wander around all night, and kill living people when they encounter them. And at night, ghosts will appear in the mass graves. We couldn't get out of the wall no matter how we walked," Carlos recalled. He had a very good attitude, just like when he was able to go over the mountain to the small town to kidnap Zhou Qinghai back in Coffin Village, he took care of the inexplicable gravekeepers in the mass graves. I checked the person's information, looked for corresponding features in the mass graves, and dug up the graves.
"Of course, when we finally got the clues and left, we discovered that the mass grave had never existed. There was only the grave of the gravekeeper in that area, and it was in a state of being dug up by me. Just like Coffin Village, there was no way to Distinguish what is real and what is illusion.”
Yu Xing thought thoughtfully: "Where are the people from the construction team?"
"They were buried deep under the gravekeeper's grave, huddled in a pile." Carlos laughed. "We called the police for them. Mr. Li had a way to cover up our purpose. News about hallucinations and wandering corpses were also blocked.”
"The trip there was very dangerous. Many people were injured, and some brothers died." The man with glasses took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and held it in his mouth, "So we went to find Mr. Zhang, oh, You like to call him Uncle Zhang, but with him here, we feel more at ease."
Carlos nodded: "Eunika recommended Will, and together with Uncle Zhang, we went to the third ancestral hall calculated by Lin. This time, Will helped with the divination, and the scope was narrowed a lot. The specific content is not up to you. Having said that, the tragedy was still caused by the concept of resurrection. This time we lost a few people with average skills, so we hired two mercenaries, one numbered ten and one numbered nineteen. "
At this point, all the members present have gathered. The person who betrayed the news about something going on at home was Mr. Li's side, and he has left now.
Carlos said that there are seven ancestral halls in total, in the shape of an irregular arch, distributed in the mountains across the country, like stars holding the moon.
Every time a supernatural event occurs, it is not in the ancestral hall, but at a certain distance. Instead, the ancestral hall hangs high and has nothing to do with it, like a bystander guarding the vicinity.
From this, Mr. Li speculated that the ancestral hall played the role of guarding the surrounding area.
Since the ancestral hall is a star, the position of the "moon" must be pointing to the tomb palace of the demon path.
Lin spent half a month to determine the location of the tomb—Chongyin Mountain.
Chongyin Mountain is actually a mountain range with no name. Only the peak of Chongyin Mountain can find legends with names. Since ancient times, rumors about Chongyin Mountain have never stopped, but in ancient times there seemed to be some people who could enter Chongyin Mountain. , and now whoever steps into it dies.
Yunika conducted careful research and determined that Chongyin Mountain was originally special, and its first rumors were long before the birth of the demon path.
Yao Dao chose to build the cemetery here because of this specialness.
When Yu Xing said this, he instinctively felt a sense of disapproval.
He doesn't know why, but he has an underlying impression of something he doesn't understand at all. There is nothing wrong with the time of birth, it's just the motivation for choosing the location...
There must be something in Chongyin Mountain that causes many mutated species to appear in the mountain. Is it really because you came to the Demon Dao because you learned about this special thing?
Yu Xing's mind suddenly moved. He never ignores the abnormalities in his consciousness.
Did...he forget something?
