Chapter 475 Powerful Breath

"Don't panic, it might be a stray animal!"

Zuo Yang quickly grabbed Bu Ya and said to him.

In fact, Zuo Yang was taken aback just now. After all, this black shadow moved so suddenly that no one was prepared, but Zuo Yang was not so scared after he recovered, because the shape of this black shadow was not so big. It's not big, and Zuo Yang didn't feel any evil spirit from it, so it shouldn't be some kind of monster or ghost.

"Brother, brother, I didn't panic at all, it was just a little sudden."

Bu Ya's face was a little pale, but he insisted on refusing to admit it, fearing that Zuo Yang would look down on him.

"Ah."

Naturally, Zuo Yang would not expose him, just nodded with a smile, then turned around and said to the black cat, "Heitan, have you seen what that is?"

The eyesight of a cat is completely different from that of a human, especially at night. Therefore, although Zuo Yang and Bu Ya did not see clearly what the black shadow was, it does not mean that the black cat did not see clearly either. .

"Meow."

The black cat then shook his head and yelled, and said to Zuo Yang in nonsense, "I didn't come here just now, I didn't see it, but it shouldn't be something dirty. After all, I'm very sensitive to monsters and ghosts and other dirty things. None of these things can escape my nose."

"I go!?"

Bu Ya was taken aback by this scene. Although he couldn't understand the nonsense of the black cat, he already knew that the black cat was definitely not an ordinary cat, but the vivid shaking of the head of the black cat was still It made him feel very surprised.

After all, normal cats and dogs, no matter how familiar they are or how smart they are, can only respond to some small commands that their owners have trained and become accustomed to. How can they shake their heads or nod like a person? How to answer the master's question... What's more, Zuo Yang has just caught this black cat, okay?

So, is Zuo Yang good at a very magical animal taming technique?Or has this black cat really become a spirit, possessing spirituality beyond imagination?

"Well, as I thought."

Zuo Yang didn't mean to guard against Bu Ya, anyway, Bu Ya has seen enough things in the past two days, and after this matter is over, the chances of the two meeting in reality must be very slim. Pay attention to these details.

So he just nodded, and continued to say to the black cat: "Otherwise, you should go down and have a look first. With your ability, no matter if it is dirty things or small animals, they should not be your opponent."

"Meow."

The black cat responded again, puffing out his chest quite proudly, "Hey, master, this is the most realistic thing you have said in the past two days."

While speaking, the black cat Chi had already walked to the entrance of the cellar with graceful cat steps, and then bounced on the ladder in the cellar with a light leap, before quietly disappearing into the darkness.

"..."

Watching the black cat's every move, Bu Ya's face changed into an expression of envy and hatred, and he looked at Zuo Yang enviously, "Brother, if only I had such a cat, is this still a cat? , apart from not being able to speak human language, even a human is probably not so sensible, right?"

"Ha ha."

Zuo Yang just smiled at him indifferently.

With just such a sentence, the black cat has already returned to the light of the lighter, raised its head and yelled "meow" at Zuo Yang: "Master, it's just that one accidentally got into the wrong hole. It’s just a pangolin, we also scared it, and now it’s hiding in a corner and shivering.”

"That's good."

Zuo Yang nodded, and then said to Bu Ya, "It's okay, it's just a pangolin, if you don't want to come down, just wait here for a while, I'll go down and have a look by myself."

After finishing speaking, Zuo Yang bent down and crawled backwards along the wooden ladder bit by bit.

"What's the matter, brother, if there is any physical work, I can't let you do it yourself."

Bu Ya was worried that there would be no chance to perform, and he was afraid of losing Zuo Yang's thigh, so he would not stay on it and wait. Seeing that Zuo Yang had already gone down, he naturally hurriedly followed.

……

Inside the cellar.

The mobile phone's light shined on it, and sure enough, as the black cat said, the pangolin, which was about the size of an adult cat, was curling up into a spherical shape, and it was weak in the corner of the cellar and did not dare to move.

"Brother, I heard that pangolins are great..."

It was obviously the first time for Bu Ya to see this kind of animal, and he took a few steps forward to see it more clearly, but he didn't dare to get too close, and said to Zuo Yang with a curious face.

"Second-class protected animals, learn about the Wildlife Protection Law."

Zuo Yang had seen it twice when he lived in the countryside before, so it was not so novel, he just said lightly, not to mention that he is more interested in the big chance that Heitan said, this small wild animal is naturally very interesting. Difficult to arouse his interest.

So while talking with Bu Ya, he has already used the mobile phone's light to carefully take pictures around the large cellar with an area of ​​about 30 square meters.

Until now, the cellar is still very well preserved. The wall and the adobe on the top fit together perfectly. Although it is definitely not smooth, it is flat enough, and the ground in the cellar is relatively dry, and there is no groundwater intrusion. trace.

In addition, on the wall at the west end of the cellar, there is a small irregular hole with a diameter of about [-] centimeters.

This small hole should be the exit for the group of wild cats to enter and exit the cellar. The reason why the pangolin accidentally ran in may be through this small hole. After all, there are no gaps in other parts of the cellar, and the pangolin cannot appear out of thin air... And after so many years of being useless, the oxygen density in this cellar can still enter people, which should also have something to do with this small hole, which plays a role in ventilation.

In addition to these, there is a small semi-circular closet that was dug out of the earth wall and built with bluestone bricks at the south end of the cellar.

The bluestone bricks used in this small closet are obviously not from this era. They should have been in the Taoist temple that disappeared. As for what they were used for... Zuo Yang is not too sure, but when he lived in the countryside before He has seen such a small closet like this in some farmers' homes. Inside the small closet are portraits of the Stove Lord or the God of Wealth. , set off a few firecrackers and hold a simple worship ceremony, in order to have a good luck and wealth in the coming year.

The Kitchen God and the God of Wealth are both gods left over from Taoism, and many people believe in them.

"No... I'm just talking, I don't intend to catch this pangolin..."

Bu Ya didn't know what Zuo Yang was looking at, and after hearing Zuo Yang's words, he quickly defended himself with embarrassment.

"Shh!"

But Zuo Yang made a silent gesture to him, and continued to observe carefully in the cellar. After looking through it again, he found nothing special, so he turned around and said to the black cat, "Heitan, you Where is the breath that I felt, can I still feel it now?"

"Meow."

The black cat nodded, raised a small paw and pointed to the small closet that Zuo Yang had been looking at for a while, and said with a wrinkled cat face, "It's right behind that, I won't go there, that kind of The breath seems to be stronger than before, and I can't breathe because of the pressure, I have to take it for you."

"More intense?"

Zuo Yang was a little surprised by what the black cat said.

As a descendant of a physiognomy master, and also a heavenly phase physiognomy master, he is also aware of this aspect, otherwise, how could he find the three copper coins used for divination in the office of Ink and Thrush's father, and the dead man? It was an ornament made of jade, but what puzzled him was that this time his perception ability seemed to have completely failed. Even though the distance was so close, he still didn't feel anything.

What's more, the black cat also said that this breath is stronger than before... There must be something strange about it!
While thinking this way, Zuo Yang was not idle, he turned his head and handed the phone to Bu Ya, and said "you help me to light up", and then walked lightly to the front of the small closet.

Without knowing the situation, Zuo Yang did not act rashly. First, he carefully observed from top to bottom, from inside to outside, and finally blew a few times after confirming that there should be no dangerous mechanism here. In one breath, he blew up the dust in the fireplace.

"Cough cough!"

Bu Ya followed closely behind Zuo Yang, the dust immediately made him cough, and he quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve.

Zuo Yang was similar, covering his mouth and nose while pulling Bu Ya back two steps.

Under the illumination of the light, the swirling dust was exceptionally clear, and even the small closet was covered up, making it almost impossible to see anything.

After waiting for a while, Zuo Yang walked up again after the dust fell.

Only then did he finally see clearly that there were indeed some scratches that could only be formed over time on the bluestone bricks in the small closet, and these scratches were intermittent, eventually forming a very neat circle.

"Sure enough, there was an incense burner in this place. It should be a three-legged round incense burner, and it has been placed for many years to form such a trace."

Zuo Yang thought about it, and then he reached out and groped in the fireplace.

These bluestone bricks give people a cool feeling at first touch, but after touching them for a while, they will feel a little warm again, but after touching them all, Zuo Yang did not find other clues from them.

"This small closet is not deep. According to the traces of the incense burner, it is impossible to put any statues in this fireplace except for the incense burner. At most, there is a portrait on the inner wall."

Zuo Yang thought about it, and then touched the inner wall of the small closet again.

The material of the inner wall is not bluestone, but adobe that is almost the same as the wall of this cellar, but the difference is that the adobe here has some cracks, just like the cracks that appear after the lime wall skin of ordinary people is exposed to water. Yes, even some places have peeled off.

With just a light touch from Zuo Yang, several thick pieces of wall skin fell off.

"How old is this cellar? I remember this place was fine when I was a child. I didn't expect that it has been cracked since I haven't come in for more than ten years?"

Bu Ya felt that the atmosphere was a bit oppressive, so he couldn't help but speak.

"..."

Zuo Yang listened to Bu Ya's words in his heart, but didn't say much, because he had already found something different behind the fallen pieces of wall.

Those are small circles that are tightly arranged, and the diameter of these small circles is about 3 centimeters...

"You take a picture here, and I'll see what's inside."

Zuo Yang gave way to Bu Ya and moved the light, and when he looked carefully again, he found that those small circles were actually the cross-sections of small wooden strips, and the material of these small wooden strips should be cypress.

"What is this..."

Zuo Yang didn't understand something, but he also knew that what he was looking for should be in it.

So Zuo Yang began to tear off the cracked wall skin one by one, revealing the inner lining behind which is made up of the cross-sections of these small cypress sticks of similar thickness.

"Brother, why are there so many logs in here?"

Bu Ya asked again in puzzlement.

"I do not know either."

Zuo Yang shook his head, then stretched out his hand and carefully pulled out a small cypress stick.

The small cypress sticks are not considered long, only about 30 centimeters in total.

Also at the same time.

"boom!"

Zuo Yang's body froze suddenly, and a powerful force that Zuo Yang had never felt surged out from the gap left by the small cypress stick.

"Wow!"

Then the black cat in the distance suddenly screamed, the hair all over his body stood upside down, and he jumped like that poor pangolin, shivering in the corner of the wall.

"!?"

Zuo Yang subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but in the next second he felt an inexplicable intimacy from this power, and could even feel that this power was intertwined with the aura in his body, which was quite harmonious.

"I'll go!? Brother, what's wrong with your cat, it suddenly barks so scary?"

But Bu Ya, who was standing behind him, obviously didn't feel anything, but was startled by the sudden cry of the black cat, and was looking back with a depressed face.

"This……"

Zuo Yang instantly had an awareness of this mysterious atmosphere:
This mysterious aura has a very powerful deterrent effect on ghosts like the black cat, and may even be lethal;

It has no effect on ordinary people like Bu Ya, and even ordinary people cannot feel its existence;

And for a physicist like him, or a person who cultivates the Tao, it has indescribable benefits, but now he can't directly absorb this power into his body, but can get along with it...

So, what is hidden here?
