The Huai Shui God's Cave

Chapter 22

Qingfeng didn't care to think too much, and hurried to see Ma Shicheng, he ran over and picked him up, found that there was still a faint breath, then shook him slightly, and said: "Brother Ma, wake up, wake up! "

Ma Shicheng slightly opened his eyes.Qingfeng was surprised to find that his eyes were very strange, they were all black, and the whites of the eyes could hardly be seen.At this time, Ma Shicheng jumped up suddenly, and bit his neck hard, and the pain came from the heart, and he yelled: "Brother Ma, what are you doing, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, there was a fluttering sound coming from behind Ma Shicheng, the pain on his neck immediately eased, and Ma Shicheng also slipped and fell to the ground.It turned out that the blind man threw the sword and stuck it into his back!

Qingfeng's eyes sparkled, and he asked loudly, "Why did you kill him? Who are you?"

The blind man said lightly: "Your Brother Ma is dead, this Huang Jing has eaten many corpses. He was also poisoned by corpses, and now he has bitten you; you should leave quickly and find a way to save your life."

Qingfeng knew that he was no match for the blind man, so he didn't dare to say anything more, so he staggered and fled the forest overnight, planning to go back to Maoshan to seek help from his master Taoist Jin Guang.

Just before he left, he saw a necklace emitting a faint light at his feet.He vaguely remembered that it seemed to have been worn around the neck of Huang Jing. When Huang Jing was beheaded by the blind man, the necklace fell to the ground.Thinking that some spirits often wear treasures around them, he picked them up and put them in his arms.

When Qingfeng returned to Maoshan, his whole body was covered with black spots.Old Taoist Jin Guang was shocked when he saw it. He asked the cause and effect and said sadly, "If it was just ordinary corpse poison, it wouldn't be a problem. Now it seems that Huang Jing usually eats some thousand-year-old corpses. This kind of corpse poison is extremely powerful. I'm not sure I can get rid of it completely."

It's just that the matter has come to this point, and Jin Guang Lao Dao wants to save his most beloved little apprentice with all his strength.He asked his big disciple Qinglan to take care of the wind for him, bring the breeze into the stone room where he practiced, and let him sit in a large bathtub, which contained bath water prepared with various medicinal materials. Let the poison of the dead body escape through the pores.

The bath water was changed three times, and each time it became extremely dark.However, at the most critical moment, Qing Lan suddenly broke in and killed Master Jin Guang with a sword from behind.Shocked and terrified, Qingfeng spat out a mouthful of blood, and then passed out.Qinglan thought that his junior brother's corpse had been poisoned, so he didn't investigate carefully. He rummaged through the box and found "Xi Shen Shu" hidden in a hidden compartment by Jin Guang, set fire to the temple, and ran away.

I don't know how long it took, when Qingfeng woke up from the smoke, he found that the master had already passed away, and there was a line written in blood on the ground: Find the treasure of our sect, revive the Maoshan Temple!
Qingfeng buried the master with tears in his eyes. There was a huge crowd, and he didn't know where to find Qinglan to clean up the house.The most urgent task is to rebuild the temple.He didn't have any belongings, and remembered the necklace beads he picked up in the primeval forest of Xianling Mountain; he was going to take it to try his luck, maybe he could sell it for a good price.

As soon as he showed up at the antique market with the circle of dark beads, he was arrested by plainclothes, saying that he was reselling cultural relics. He yelled that he was wronged, but no one paid attention to his appeal and locked him up directly.

He was locked in the cell for more than half a year. He thought that this life was hopeless and that he was going to die of old age. He didn't expect that someone would want to see him one day.

The person who came claimed to be Mr. Sun, about 40 years old, the leader of the prison was very polite to him, as if his superiors had taken special care of him in his words.Mr. Sun asked him about the origin of the necklace in detail. He knew that his hope of getting out of prison was at stake, so he told everything about it.

After listening carefully, Mr. Sun asked about the location and characteristics of the primeval forest.Then Mr. Sun took him out of the prison and gave him a sum of money to rebuild the Maoshan Temple. After he settled everything, he went to Beijing Panjiayuan Boguzhai to find his buddy Xiao Liu.

When Mr. Sun left, he specifically explained to him: "The corpse poison on your body has not been completely removed, and it may recur in ten or twenty years. Only I know how to completely remove it."

Qingfeng didn't want to go to Beijing to find some buddy Xiao Liu.He felt that since Mr. Sun came here for the black jade necklace, he would definitely arrange for him to lead someone to find the place where the black jade necklace was found, which was the primeval forest.That place was too dangerous, he didn't want to take the risk again, maybe he really lost his life next time.As for my own corpse poison, I don't feel any symptoms for the time being. Even if it really happens in the future, it will be a matter of the future, and the most important thing is to save the life in front of me.

He built a Taoist temple and named it Qingfeng Temple, and then began to search for his brother Taoist Qinglan from all over the world, but it has been unsuccessful.

More than two months ago, he found that some conditions had appeared on his body, and black corpse spots had grown out. Although the color was very light, the smell of corpses emanating from the pores of his body made him realize that he was The corpse poison in the hospital broke out again, it seems that Mr. Sun did not lie to him.

In desperation, he came to Beijing Panjiayuan to look for Xiao Liu, Boguzhai's buddy.After many years, he didn't know if that place still existed.After asking all the way, he was really disappointed. Two years ago, the boss of Boguzhai was involved in a major tomb robbery case, and was arrested and died in prison. Boguzhai also went bankrupt.

The old site of Boguzhai has changed its signboard again and turned it into a teahouse.He was not reconciled, so he went to the teahouse to inquire, but unexpectedly he was actually asked. The owner of the teahouse said that Xiao Liu, a clerk of Boguzhai, was a regular customer of his place.

The boss made a phone call, and after waiting for an hour, a short and fat man came over with a puzzled look on his face. He was Xiao Liu.Qingfeng explained his reason for coming in a non-coherent manner.Xiao Liu couldn't understand it either. He was a little impatient and was about to leave, but when he heard Qingfeng Taoist mention a black jade necklace, he was stunned for a while, and then decisively interrupted Qingfeng's words, and then looked left and right. See, when you're sure no one's looking, pull him into a room.

After entering the room, Xiao Liu's attitude changed a lot, and he said very politely: "So you are the one who the boss mentioned to find the necklace, but why did you come to me now? You came 20 years late!"

Qingfeng replied embarrassingly: "I'm ashamed, I was only concerned about dealing with the affairs of the teacher, so I didn't come to you until now."

Xiao Liu smiled lightly and said, "You came here because of the onset of corpse poison?"

Qingfeng was seen through his mind, very unnatural, and awkwardly didn't know how to answer.Fortunately, Xiao Liu didn't criticize too much. He took a sip of tea and said casually: "The boss has instructed me a long time ago. If you come to cooperate with us, I will teach you how to save your life."

Xiao Liu told Qingfeng that there is a thousand-year-old tomb near Xianling Mountain.According to unofficial history records, this mausoleum is the place where Prince Ma Chu's bones were buried. After the death of the owner of the tomb, the Zhuyan Pearl contained in his mouth can keep the corpse from decaying and is a life-saving panacea specially designed to detoxify the corpse.They were willing to provide Qingfeng with information and routes to let him enter the tomb, but he must help them bring out one thing, which was a black jade box buried in the coffin of the ancient tomb.

Qingfeng came to Xianling Mountain under Xiao Liu's arrangement, and met Yuan Xiazi by accident.He asked him to reason about the death of Mashicheng back then, but he actually wanted to get out of him the secrets in the primeval forest.Qingfeng has always suspected that Xiazi Yuan has a great relationship with that forest and the ancient tomb, especially seeing that his appearance has not changed for 20 years, he is even more convinced that Xiazi Yuan is a monster, and even suspected that Huang Jing was with Yuan Xiazi when Ma Shicheng was killed.

However, it happened that Yang Xiaoxie and I rescued blind Yuan.Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to give up resentfully.

When we entered the primeval forest, Qingfeng got the news from Xiao Liu in advance and followed us all the time.When we were fighting Qilin Gu, he took advantage of the chaos to go back to the hillside, opened a robbery hole and entered the tomb with murals.At that time, he found a copper coffin, and when he opened it, there was only a pair of black jade clothes, so he took it away casually.He remembered that the black jade necklace he picked up back then was made of the same material as this jade dress, and he brought it to Xiao Liu and Boss Sun, they must be very interested.

As soon as he took out the jade clothes, he found that we had already entered, and wanted to break out by surprise, but was chased by Tang Mo all the time.Later, when he saw the ghost altar by the lake, he was frightened, and Tang Mei took away his jade clothes.But he was drawn into a dark space inexplicably.

Qingfeng sighed, and said: "You all know what happened later, whether you believe it or not, I don't need to lie to you. It's really unbelievable, and I think everything is weird."

When Qingfeng mentioned Panjiayuan Boguzhai and Mr. Sun, I looked up at Tang Mei. He was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, but he didn't react at all.The professor once told me privately before that Tang Mei is the godson of Panjiayuan Boguzhai's grand shopkeeper.It seems that Mr. Sun has a lot to do with him, even if it is not Shopkeeper Sun himself.

The little Liu that Qingfeng mentioned reminded me of a person—Manager Liu of Shengshi Collection Company.Shengshi Collection is the company that sponsored this ancient tomb inspection and excavation. Isn't their boss also surnamed Sun?It's called Second Master Sun.Could it be that Second Master Sun and Shopkeeper Sun are two brothers?

I think Tang Mo must know some internal situation, but the professor looked at me and shook his head at me, so I had to give up.This kid is sullen and indifferent. If he doesn't want to say it himself, I won't get any answer even if I ask.

Thinking of this, I waved to Yang Xiaoxie, asked him to put away his gun, and said to Qingfeng: "If what you said is true, it seems that you are not too bad. I hope you will stay there honestly. As long as you can Get out, we won't leave you behind." He nodded hastily.

3. Folding space
Seeing that there was no Qingfeng to discourage him, Yang Xiaoxie began to complain again: "I'm about to collapse, if I can't stand it anymore, I'll take a gun and kill myself, lest I suffer half-dead."

Ma Chuchen gave him a cold look, and said, "Can you stop being so negative, at this time, we can't give up."

Tang Mei said calmly: "When the army is fighting, it often encounters a situation that is a hundred times more desperate than it is now. If everyone has no fighting spirit like you, it will really be a dead end."

After Yang Xiaoxie received such a blow from him, he felt embarrassed again.This guy is very face-saving a lot of the time.He said embarrassingly: "You are right, I am willing to persist until the end."

I sighed and said, "Everyone, stop arguing. Since we can't go out for the time being, let's calm down and rest for a while, recharge our batteries, and make persistent efforts later."

Everyone stopped talking, feeling very gloomy, and the professor began to study the jade dress again.Along the way, he kept the jade coat with him in his backpack, and whenever he had free time, he took it out and observed it carefully with a magnifying glass.I really admire him as a researcher who is dedicated to academics. It seems that even if the sky falls, it can't affect his mood of studying history.

I was not at all sure whether I could go out or not.Even so, I was unwilling to give up.

I thought about everything again, the structure of the tomb, the murals, and the Jiuding, hoping to find a breakthrough. After thinking about it, I fell asleep before I knew it.

In my sleep, I found myself swimming in the boundless sea. It felt so good to be free and comfortable, and then I found myself sinking slowly and dived into the sea.In the dream, I didn't feel any discomfort from lack of oxygen.

Speaking of which, this is one of my secrets.Both my father and grandpa have this ability, we can breathe freely in the water like fish without any tools.Except for my family, no one knows this secret, and we don't want to let outsiders know, or we might be locked up by the scientific research institute for research.As for why I have such a strange ability, even I can't explain it myself.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a very huge sea snake jumping out from the depths of the seabed. It followed me closely and opened its mouth wide, which scared me into a fright.The speed of the sea snake was very fast, and it was about to bite my leg, but I found that I had somehow turned into a bead, round and emitting a dazzling white light, it was the Xuanyuan mirror in my arms!

It turned out that when I was nervous and accelerated, I shook the Xuanyuan mirror out of my arms, but I remembered that the Xuanyuan mirror had become oval, but I didn't expect that it was still round in the dream mirror.

Sea snakes like to chase things that emit light. When they saw Xuanyuan Mirror, they immediately gave up on me, turned around and went downstream, trying to chase Xuanyuan Mirror.The mirror seemed to have spiritual energy. Seeing it being swallowed by the sea snake, it suddenly floated up obliquely and flowed backwards. The sea snake couldn't hold back and almost bit its own tail!

In an instant, I trembled all over, and suddenly remembered an important thing, I yelled, and woke up.

The drowsy people were all awakened by my cry and looked at me nervously. Among them, only the professor was not sleepy and was playing with the jade robe under the flashlight.For a brief moment, I saw a very strange thing, I thought I was wrong, because I saw the professor's face, showing a cold and ferocious expression, and his eyes exuded a very greedy and strange red light, which is different from usual He is a different person.
