Chapter 15 The Tomb Style of the Shu Family
It is true that people say they are as timid as mice. This rat spirit found out that Gu Shiyi was a cultivator and was much more powerful than him. He really didn't dare to make a mistake and stayed here all night until daylight came. Lin The birds in the room chirped and sang, and Gu Shiyi woke up.

She first went to the creek to wash her face and rinse her mouth, and then had breakfast with the steamed buns served last night before planning to hit the road. She looked at the listless old horse and the shabby carriage. , a little dumbfounded,
"My lord, will you ride in a carriage like this?"

Gu Shiyi sat on the throne and nodded.
"Yes what's the matter?"

The rat spirit circled the carriage and said with some disgust,

"How can such a broken carriage be on the road..."

Gu Shiyi spread his hands,

"There's nothing you can do about it. People who practice Taoism don't value money. With so little money, you can only buy such a broken car!"

The rat spirit rolled his eyes and said,

"Sir, the bandits who were drained of their essence by me once robbed a wealthy family passing by and killed them all.

They also drove other people's carriages to carry the stolen goods, and then they divided the stolen goods, and the horses pulling the carriages were also killed, leaving a carriage thrown in the mountains. The young man saw that the carriage was made of fine wood, and put it there. There have been no infestations in the past few years, which is much better than yours! "

Gu Shiyi's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Where?"

The mouse spirit pointed at the top of the mountain.
"On the other side of the mountain..."

Gu Shiyi thought about it and made a decision immediately.

"Then I don't want this car!"

After saying that, he jumped out of the car, untied the horse, and held it in his hand.

"Let's walk there!"

Anyway, this broken car is about to fall apart, so why not replace it with another one? The rat spirit nodded, looked at the old and thin horse, touched his chin and said,

"If the adults trust the younger ones too much, it is better to follow the younger ones. The younger ones can lead the adults to take a shortcut!"

Gu Shiyi looked it up and down and asked,

"What shortcut?"

This mountain road was taken by her and the old Taoist priest when they went out two years ago. Compared with the main road outside, it is already a shortcut. What shortcut does this rat spirit have?
The rat spirit laughs with you,
"Sir, the best thing we rat tribe can do is dig holes. Below this mountain..."

After saying that, he pointed to his feet,
"The bottom of this mountain has been hollowed out, and there are roads in all directions. This is no small boast. This mountain has a radius of hundreds of miles, and there is a way to go wherever you want..."

Gu Shiyi squinted at him,

"You asked us to follow you into your lair. You didn't want to trick us into going in and kill us, right?"

The rat spirit waved his hands repeatedly,
"My lord is joking. You are a cultivator. How dare I attack you? I didn't know my identity before, but now that I know it, how dare I do anything malicious!"

Gu Shiyi looked at him for a long time, and saw that the rat's back felt cold, and then she nodded and said,

"Okay, you lead the way!"

This rat spirit didn't lie. It had lived in this mountain for 800 years, and the entire mountain had long been hollowed out by it. It led Gu Shiyi to an inconspicuous cave entrance. , pushed aside the tall weeds at the entrance of the cave, and got in first. Gu Shiyi held the broken earthen pot in one hand and led the old horse in the other. The old horse was carrying her luggage and followed slowly.

The entrance to the cave was a bit narrow, but the height was just high enough for Lao Ma to lower his head and go in. Gu Shiyi looked around and saw that the rocks at the entrance were covered with moss. It looked like no one had walked around for years. He entered the cave only three feet away. At the end, Gu Shiyi said doubtfully,
"Didn't you say it was you who dug the hole? It doesn't look like it?"

The rat spirit turned back and smiled at her,
"This outer hole is formed naturally, and the inside is dug out. If an ordinary person breaks in without knowing the details, they will think that they have reached the end when they reach this point, and they will not go any further..."

As it spoke, it walked to the wall of the cave, where there were old tree roots snaking down from the top of the cave. The mouse spirit made a squeaking sound in its mouth, and the old tree roots suddenly came to life, like snakes. He usually crawled quickly to both sides, causing the soil to fall down, revealing a very wide hole. Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at the mouse spirit.
"You have a chance!"

The rat spirit chuckled,

"Let the adults laugh!"

Gu Shiyi led the old horse and followed it in. As soon as he entered, a strong smell immediately hit his nose. Gu Shiyi subconsciously covered his mouth and nose.

It stinks!

She saw that the rat spirit in front of her didn't notice anything, and she knew that these rats were born to eat lizard in their nests. They had long been accustomed to the smell, so of course they didn't notice it themselves!

But now that we are here, Gu Shiyi can't retreat. After thinking about it, he summons his magic power and temporarily closes his sense of smell before following in.

As soon as she walked in, she looked around and clicked her tongue.
"It's pretty neat!"

In front of Gu Eleven's eyes was a very spacious passage, one and a half people high, and a carriage could barely pass on either side. On the cave walls on both sides of the passage, it was unknown what the rat spirit was used to polish it, making it smooth. It is unusual, and every other section is inlaid with a luminous pearl, illuminating the passage with a dim light. Although it is not very clear from a distance, it is enough for walking.

The mouse spirit laughed and said,
"The little one is from the rat tribe. Originally, he could recognize objects in the dark. However, many years ago, when he was digging a hole in the mountain, he accidentally opened an ancient tomb of the human race. This is how he looked at the road in the tomb. Yes, it looks very grand, so I made the whole house look the same. It’s an honor for me to be praised by adults!”

Gu Shiyi grinned after hearing this, lowered his head and looked at Li Yan'er who quietly poked his head out of his collar, and both thought to themselves,
"It seems that this brother's home decoration is in the ancient tomb style!"

This kind of heavy taste is really not what the human race can think of!

The lair of the Mouse Spirit is located in the middle of the mountain. It is shaped like a giant oval cover with a dome at the top and a flat ground below. It is also paved with relief blue bricks. This is naturally moved from the ancient tomb. The roots of the giant cover are in all directions. There are countless cave entrances, which represent countless passages that can lead to various parts of the mountain range. Each of these passages is connected to each other to form a huge maze. Without a mouse spirit to guide the way, let alone ordinary people, even monks can come in. Unless they are forcibly broken, Open the mountain wall, otherwise you won't be able to get out just by knowing the way.

Gu Shiyi's eyes were really opened when he entered this place. He looked around the room with a look of amazement on his face. Seeing her expression, the mouse spirit became more and more proud. He pointed to the empty space in the middle and said to Gu Shiyi and Zou Zou. , "My lord, it's really wonderful to see my humble abode. My lord, please come and sit inside!"

Gu Shiyi glanced and couldn't help but grin again. He saw that in the open space, which was as big as two tennis courts, there was a circle made of stone horses, stone cows, stone figurines and other objects. In the middle of the circle was a huge There is a stone coffin. There are some stone furniture scattered around the coffin, including tables, chairs and even beds. Look at the green bricks on the ground, the images of ascending to immortality carved around the coffin, and the stone figurines holding swords around it, etc. Gu Shiyi I can't stand it even after shouting.
"Tsk tsk...your aesthetic...is really unique!"

If you are a timid person sleeping in such a place, you will be stared at by these stone figurines with eyes and no pupils, and you are afraid that they will pass by before you even lie down!
The mouse spirit only thought that Gu Shiyi was praising her, her little face flushed, and her eyes shone with excitement.

"Sure enough, adults are discerning. Several guests have come to my house, but none of them agree. Only adults can see the wonderful decoration of my house!"

"Ha ha……"

Gu Shiyi said haha,
That's because I was brave and didn't tell the truth!
She walked over, tied the horse to the horns of a stone sheep, carried the broken earthen jar over, and curiously looked at the coffin in the middle.

"Hmm... the scene of the crane guiding the way and the immortal ascending is engraved on it. It seems that the original owner of this coffin was a monk?"

Gu Shiyi asked, and the rat spirit immediately showed admiration on his face.

"Sir, you are indeed powerful. There is indeed an ancient monk in this coffin. The younger one was a mouse spirit in the mountains 400 years ago. Once he was digging a hole in the mountains and accidentally entered this lord's tomb. Out of curiosity, he Just got into this coffin..."

After saying that, he pointed to a hole in the coffin that was obviously bitten by a mouse.
"The younger one went in and saw that the ancient monk in the coffin had already emerged, and his body had long been turned into dust, but a red pill was left behind. The younger one was greedy and ate the pill, so 800 Nian then turned into a human form..."

It is very difficult for spirits to transform into human form. Some of them have been practicing in the mountains for thousands of years and have no chance to transform into human form. For example, the mouse spirit is very lucky to be able to transform into human form after 800 years!

"Ok!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"This is your chance too!"

After that, I looked around here again, and I really couldn't stand the style of the Tomb Sect. The more I looked at it, the more horrifying it became, so I said to Mouse Jing,

"It's getting late. I've also seen your home. Why don't you take us out now?"

The rat spirit nodded,
"Okay, sir, please come with me!"

So he first led Gu Shiyi to drill into one of the densely packed cave entrances. Gu Shiyi followed him, turning left and right, and it took him about half a day to get out of a hole. In the woods near the river bank, Gu Shiyi untied the restriction on his nose only after he reached the woods, but he almost choked due to the stench that filled his mouth and nose.
"Cough cough cough..."

She held her chest and coughed for a long time. When she looked up, she saw the rat spirit clearing away a pile of fallen leaves piled high in the forest.

"What do you think of this car, sir?"

The mouse spirit pointed at a carriage under the fallen leaves. Gu Shiyi walked over and looked up and down, with a look of surprise on his face.

"This is sandalwood!"

The entire carriage is made of sandalwood. This is naturally a trivial matter in a cultivation sect, but if it is placed in the secular world, it is not a rich and powerful family, but it does not have the strength. Gu Shiyi even went over and smelled it. , there was a faint fragrance on the wood, and she became more and more sure that the owner of this carriage had an extraordinary identity.

"This kind of fragrance is taken from the oil of a big fish in the sea. When applied on the wood, it can prevent fire, moisture and insects, and it can also emit a delicate fragrance. Not to mention the price of this carriage, this oil is sold for 100 taels of silver outside. Jin, if such a big carriage is completely coated, it should only cost three to five kilograms, right?"

Seeing that Gu Shiyi was very satisfied, the mouse spirit also said proudly,
"Sir, you are right. This means that you don't need a carriage in the mountains. Otherwise, if you pair it with a few divine horses, it would be very majestic to sit on it..."

Gu Shiyi laughed and complained in his heart,
"I still treat it as an ordinary carriage, at most it will be more solid. If I drive such a carriage outside, wouldn't it be a conspicuous bag?"

The family to which such a carriage belongs must be powerful. Maybe they are looking for bandits who kill people and take wealth. If you drive it outside and someone recognizes it, why don't you take the blame?
However, Gu Shiyi really couldn't bear to let such a good carriage rot in the mountains and fields, so he opened the rear door again and let her in to take a look. She saw that the interior decoration was still very well preserved, and the paving inside was very good. There are thick brocade cushions, teapots and small stoves made of magnets, and there are two quilts as soft as clouds placed under the stool. When the stool is unfolded, it becomes a simple bed. , Gu Shiyi saw it. The thin bedding was actually stuffed with a kind of snow animal hair, which was light, warm, and easy to clean and carry. The car was walking in the wild, closed the door, and folded the small quilt. Covered, its comfort level is comparable to that of Yan'er's cars. It is really every traveler's dream car!
Gu Shiyi's eyes sparkled when he saw it, and he didn't care whether it was conspicuous or not, and thought to himself,
"The worst thing is, I'll replace the luxurious curtains outside and cover them with old cloths. Anyway, it's for my own use. As long as I'm comfortable!"

Gu Shiyi happily accepted the cart. The Mouse Spirit was very happy to see that she was satisfied. He watched Gu Shiyi hitch the horse and pull the cart for two turns in the woods. He found that the wheels were running normally. Eleven planned to say goodbye to Mouse Jing. Before leaving, she thought about it and said to Mouse Jing,

"If you want to comprehend the Great Dao, seduce human beings to have sex, and suck human essence essence, that is a low-level way and will not last long!"

The rat spirit was quite clever. After listening to Gu Shiyi's words, he knew that she was trying to teach him. He was overjoyed and saluted her, saying,
"Please teach me, my lord!"

Gu Shi said,
"I observe what you say and do, but have you learned some etiquette from the human race?"

Mouse Jingdao,

"The young one found some writing slips in the ancient tomb. After he was able to transform, he went outside and asked the teacher in the village for help. He learned a few words...and...he also sang an opera in the village. I followed him and took a peek. few……"

No wonder, he held an account book and said it was the Four Books and Five Classics, and he walked three steps at a time!

Gu Shi nodded,

"Not many mountain elves and wild monsters are literate, but you are an outlier..."

After thinking about it,

"You admire human culture, I will point you to a place..."

The mouse hurriedly saluted,

"Thank you for your advice, sir..."

Gu Shi said,
"Don't thank me in a hurry. I'm just showing you a path. I don't know if it will work or not..."
