Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 199 Supreme Family (20)
The group leader patted him on the shoulder and said: "Now is not the time to give up. Anyway, we have to find out the people-eating things. This is a residential area. If we don't get it right, something big will happen. Let's see what it will be." did this?"

I said: "Need to say? It must be something outside the door. Thinking of the state of him eating the corpse, I couldn't help shivering.

The head of the group stared at the opposite window for a while, and said, "I think there seems to be something wrong with this window."

We looked towards the window immediately, it was an old-fashioned window, the window frame was made of wood, after decades of wind and sun, it had already discolored and cracked, other than that, there was nothing abnormal. "

I said, "I don't see any problem."

The team leader said, "Look carefully."

I took a closer look, and although I still couldn't tell there was any problem, I felt that something was wrong, and the leader said: "I haven't seen the tree outside the window move since I came in, so there is obviously a problem. "

Ma Tianxing was also attracted by the window, walked up to us and said, "What can it explain?"

The head of the group walked over, grabbed the corner of the window frame with his hand, and raised it upwards, only to hear a scraping sound, and a picture that was so realistic was torn off the wall, and the real window was revealed.

11. The Land of Ghosts

What is revealed outside the window is a blue-gray stone road, but the passage is narrow, because there are black brick walls on both sides, it seems that this house is closely connected with another building, but from the location of the building itself, we can see When I went downstairs, I didn't seem to see the wall with this color.

But that painting is really too realistic, no matter in terms of color or technique, it is impeccable, and it is impossible to see it unless you distinguish it carefully. Ma Tianxing stared at the painting and sighed: "Even computer printing can't produce this effect."

I went to the window and looked out, only to see that the window was just above the passage, the walls on the left and right sides were thick and tall, and a spier was faintly visible inside. Could it be that there is actually a tower built in it? Where is it? "

There is no light on the passage. Fortunately, the moon is very bright today, so we can see all the details here, but it looks a bit ghostly under the cold moonlight. I asked: "Is it another gloomy alley?" ?”

The head of the group thought for a while and said: "It should be, but it doesn't make sense that we can see the ghost house here." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a man in Qing Dynasty clothes turning out from the wall at the end of the path. The color stretched his figure into long strips and spread it on the ground. In the night, his face was pitch black, and his facial features could not be seen clearly. However, from the analysis of clothes, this is not a normal person's attire. Qing dynasty zombies that appear frequently.

However, he stood at the entrance of the trail for a while, and slowly walked towards us. His joints were not stiff, and he was definitely not a zombie. I was secretly relieved, but he kept walking on both sides of the wall while walking. Feeling something, like wiping something again, gradually approached the head of the group and said, "Give me the flashlight."

He Zhuang handed over the flashlight, and the team leader turned it on and shone it on the man's face, but the strange thing was that the beam of the flashlight disappeared immediately as if it was swallowed by a black hole when it went out of the window, so the man's face was still unclear. Chang said to himself: "I understand what's going on, He Zhuang, give me your knife."

He Zhuang took out the Blood Curse Knife and handed it to the head of the group. He shone the light of the flashlight on the Blood Curse Knife, and the reflected light was reflected on the man's face. To our surprise, this man was actually the principal.

The group leader reacted the most violently and almost didn't jump up. The headmaster was wearing Qing Dynasty costumes. The braided head of the Qing Dynasty made people feel very awkward. Under the light of the knife, his complexion didn't look pale, and he didn't look like a ghost. Said: "How does this count? Should we go down and have a look?"

But the head of the group said something inexplicable: it will rain and thunder soon. "

I thought I heard it wrong, and said, "What did you say?"

The head of the regiment closed the window and said to us: "If I guess correctly, there will be a storm soon."

He Zhuang said: "It's going to rain, it's going to rain, this is something that no one can stop, and it's not surprising."

I asked: "But how do you know, I think it's not bad today."

Ma Tianxing said: "You are looking at the abnormal side, look at the window on the opposite side."

I looked at the opposite window, and sure enough, the wind was blowing outside. I could only hear the cold wind blowing up and down. The night sky was covered by dark clouds, and the night became darker. Suddenly, a burst of lightning split the sky, and then the thunder rolled in. Immediately. : "Thunderstorms in winter, it seems that summer rains are bound to flood."

I smiled and said, "Do you have any scientific basis for this?"

He said: "This is a folk proverb, do you know what a folk proverb is?"

The group leader said: "Stop talking nonsense, let me analyze a few phenomena with you, I think things may be getting more and more complicated. It has nothing to do with the disappearance of the book from the ground, but I think there may be some connection between it. At first, I couldn't figure it out, but I saw a vague outline of the phenomenon just now. Let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about the window The scene that appears later is neither a gloomy alley nor a fantasy, but a kind of interlacing of time and space."

Ma Tianxing was a little surprised and said, "Such a weird thing can happen, and it's still in my community?"

The head of the group said: "This kind of situation has nothing to do with the location directly. The truth was revealed. It was the electromagnetic thunderstorm that once occurred, which recorded the fighting sounds of the combat troops. Just like a tape recorder, whenever there is a thunderstorm, the released electromagnetic will re-release those sounds. What people call time-space interlacing , it is entirely possible that it is a mischief of nature, just like a mirage."

As soon as the voice fell, a thunderstorm resounded across the sky, and the head of the group took us to the bed. It was the people and scenery outside the window that were jumping like a signal transmission problem. The principal was divided into several parts and flashed in an instant. , and put it back together, it will be the same again soon, and the same is true for the two walls and the trail.

The group leader said: "This is the situation where the picture is disturbed by electromagnetic interference. I guess that's the reason why the light source couldn't pass through before. The reason why the reflective light can be used is because of the change in physical properties, which makes the two compatible, so I can be sure. The picture is real, not fake."

I said: "You mean that this person from the Qing Dynasty is the ancestor of the principal?"

The leader nodded and said, "I'm afraid that's true."

I said: "But in this way, I think it's too coincidental, right? There have been countless life scenes in China for 5000 years. The lightning happened to record the ancestors of the principal, and they happened to be seen by us? I really can't believe it. The probability is not only one in a billion, but one in a trillion."

The head of the group said: "You are right, so you can explain a problem. Ma Tianxing's grandfather, that is, Curator Ma himself must know this secret, so he lived here and spent his energy drawing a fake one. Window view."

I took a closer look at this window scene. The realism of this window scene is actually due to his ingenious selection of materials. First, he dealt with colored grids, that is, the glass windows are "pasted" with colored cellophane. , and the tree shadows are all behind the colored grid, blurry but reasonable, and can be seen through at a glance during the day, but they can be faked at night. It seems that Director Ma has determined that normal people will not enter his house during the day, Even if a thief comes at night, he will be fooled by this fake painting. "

The group leader continued: "Then what is the purpose of his drawing this painting? Needless to say, it is to cover up some truth, the truth that he does not want others to find out. I guess this truth is a book from the ground."

Ma Tianxing said with a smile: "Your guess is wrong, I can guarantee [-]% that the book on the ground is a painting, because I have seen it with my own eyes."

The head of the group said: "Since you have seen it with your own eyes, I have a few questions for you to answer. In the era when the Yin-Yang scholar recorded the earth scriptures, there were no words in the world. Of course, he could use pictures instead of words, but what about paper? How could he?" Will it be recorded in the form of paper?"

Ma Tianxing said: "He used dragon skin and dragon blood, I remember I should have told you."

The head of the group said: "Listen to my question clearly, dragon skin and dragon blood are just copies of paper and ink, and people in that era had no idea about paper and ink. Yin-Yang scholars have invented the prototype of paper and ink? This is obviously a way of recording dragon skin and dragon blood fabricated by modern people based on their own imagination. I conclude that Yin-Yang scholars would never use dragon skin as a material for recording earth books. On the stone, the possibility is the greatest, because this method was the most likely original recording method used at that time, and stones are everywhere, and it is enough to carve it with a knife."

The head's analysis has its absolute truth, Ma Tianxing opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, the head said: "Little Ma, didn't your grandfather reveal any information about this to you?"

Ma Tianxing said in a very sure tone: "Absolutely not?"

The group leader said: "Then how did you know how to breed people? If I'm not mistaken, this should be the alchemy recorded in the Earth Book? Could it be that your grandfather only let you see this section of the record? Since he concealed it from you Existence just doesn’t want you to know everything related to it, and inexplicably teaches you one of the methods, this kind of behavior is really inconsistent with his original intention.”

Ma Tianxing's complexion changed drastically, and he took a step back involuntarily. He Zhuang quietly stopped at the door. The head of the team stared at him with a serious expression and said: "Xiao Ma, we have worked together for more than ten years, don't tell me you have never put us As your friend?"

Ma Tianxing hesitated for a while, finally sighed, sat down on the chair slowly, lit a cigarette and smoked halfway, and said, "Commander, it's because you have a good brain, I really didn't expect you to find out the situation from the window, Cracked my identity."

The leader said: "It's nothing complicated, and even if you don't say that I already know that you are actually Ma Tianxing himself, right?"

I am baffled by this sentence, isn't Ma Tianxing the same as Ma Tianxing himself?Could it still be me? "

Unexpectedly, Ma Tianxing nodded and said: "That's right, I am the real Ma Tianxing." After that, he said to me: "Do you still remember the time of Ma Tianxing's death that you found out? In fact, the dead Ma Tianxing was me, and I It's Director Ma of the library."

I suddenly realized: "Is your death fake?"

Ma Tianxing said: "Wrong, death is real. Countless people have witnessed all of this, but I have a way to continue my life. This is also the greatest discovery of my life."

Now that the truth surfaced, the group leader nodded thoughtfully and said, "It turns out that the person you planted is actually yourself."

Ma Tianxing smiled smugly: "Yes, people are mortal, and I am no exception, but human cultivation can extend life forever. This is the biggest gain from Earth Book."

The leader said: "But what about this person in the box? Who is he?

Ma Tianxing said: "I really didn't expect you to see the flaw in this point. I lied to you that he was an unsuccessful production. It seems that you will definitely not believe it now. Xiao Chen, you are indeed a talent , very smart."

The group leader said: "You are welcome, you are also very smart."

Ma Tianxing said: "This man is the real translator of the book from the ground. He died too suddenly. There are still many secrets in the book from the ground that have not been solved yet. I hope he can tell everything."

The group leader said: "First of all, you separate his legs from his body. You definitely don't want him to be able to resist you, but you need to threaten him, that is, you can have conditions to exchange with him. Of course, the body is the best item. , kill two birds with one stone, but you didn't have time to hide him, and we finally discovered him."

Ma Tianxing was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I planned. I'm not wrong if people don't kill themselves."

The leader said: "Now is not the time to discuss right and wrong, where is the real book from the ground?"

Ma Tianxing said: "There are only fragments of the book from the ground, because no one has seen the complete book from the ground, and you have seen the scene outside the window. There are fragments of the book from the ground carved on the weird wall. The man in the wooden box copied the contents. And successfully translated a part of it."

The leader said: "Who is this person?"

Ma Tianxing gave me a meaningful look and said, "This man is an old friend, he is Luo Huan's real father."

I was taken aback and said: "Impossible, my father has already died, he has been... I hesitated at this point."

The group leader said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I believe we are worthy of your trust."

I said: "He has been chasing and killing the yin and yang scholar."

Ma Tianxing laughed and said: "Then it's completely right, of course he will hunt down the yin and yang scholar, because the yin and yang scholar has a sworn hatred with him, he was originally the world's most outstanding semiotics expert, of course he knows you After his mother, he obtained a lot of valuable information from the pictures of the fragments of the book from the ground, so he translated a part of the book from the ground. The yin and yang scholar knew that his descendants had betrayed his most precious things, and his mood can be imagined, so Send an evil general to hunt down your father, but to his surprise your father has already learned the spells from the book of the earth, ordinary evil generals are no match for him at all, something happened later, anyway your father died , You said that he was chasing and killing the ghost king all day in the underworld, I absolutely believe it, this is another reason why I can't give him a leg, if I do, I'm not his at all."

Ma Tianxing was so crazy that he wanted to take advantage of a dead man, and this man was my father, which made me furious. I stared at his face, thinking of punching him. Of course Ma Tianxing knew my heart, but he didn't care. He smiled and said: "Why Luo Zi, is it something you don't want me to revive your father?"

I forced myself to hold back the anger in my heart, and said, "I have seen my father before, and he is different from the person in the box."

Ma Tianxing said: "That's for sure, because there will definitely be differences in form between humans and ghosts. You don't have to doubt this, so you should help me."

I raised my fist, but He Zhuang held it down and said, "Don't mess around, we're not children, and fighting won't solve any problems."

Ma Tianxing pointed to the bruised wound on his face and said with a smile: "Luo Zi, I have never taken the so-called combination of fists and feet to heart. I only worry about one thing in my life, and that is the possibility that the things in the plan may not be completed." .”

My voice trembled with anger: "You are simply an asshole."

Ma Tianxing said: "That's right, I'm a bastard, but so what? Your father taught me the secret recipe in the underground book for what? Isn't it to revive him after he dies? I'm like him now. I wish, but something went wrong today, and victory is just around the corner, but we were fooled by others."

The group leader said: "Luo Zi's father didn't want to be resurrected at all. You did this against his will, and you didn't give him legs. This is immoral in itself. There are ulterior motives in resurrecting him. Xiao Ma, we work together Don’t tell me you have an ulterior motive in going through life and death?”

Ma Tianxing said: "What you are talking about is nonsense, is it easy for me? I need to obtain the hair, blood and other things on the body of the descendants of Yin-Yang scholars. The ability is far stronger than ordinary people, and I am not his opponent."

Although I have been betrayed by countless people, today I have been hurt the most. It is so deep that I feel that I can't recover. After calming down for a while, I know that I have to face it all. The betrayal of friends is not a rare thing in the world. On the contrary, this scene may be staged in every corner of the world every moment, which is the normal state of human nature, but as a person, Ma Tianxing hurt two generations of people who regarded him as a friend at the same time. intolerable.
