Ghost Marriage

Chapter 192 - Undoing the talisman (2)

"Alright, if you see this rune again, you can also take out the ones you just recorded and compare them. If you can't solve this problem, just put it at the end." Pei Qin spoke as she walked forward, all the way until she arrived at a completely dark place, where there was no more light inside, we could only light up the Fire Symbol to sustain our illumination for a while, and the cave's air was very thin, we felt that the oxygen here wasn't sufficient, so we couldn't go too deep either.

"Let's stop here and see where my little cyclone can run to." Pei Qin stopped, and we watched as she used his talisman to send out a small cyclone. Just like how she used the talisman to explore the path previously, we used the small cyclone's path and the time of her disappearance to determine how deep the path is.

However, when we looked at this small cyclone together, we didn't hear a response for a long time. After almost five minutes, we still didn't seem to stop. When Pei Qin's talisman stopped, she would have felt it herself. If she wasn't mistaken, there should be a very long way to go inside, this place was definitely not a simple cave.

"What do we do now? Everyone is at their wit's end. " I drooped my head, and was in deep thought. Suddenly, I felt that we should let Pan Xi out to see the situation, she should be able to help us!

"That makes sense." Pei Qin said. I shook the bottle open and a dense purple black smoke came out from the mouth of the bottle. It looked like I had just woken up, but Pan Xi's eyes were still cloudy and her body seemed to be faintly discernable, like a transparent shadow.

"I have just turned into a devil's knife and saved your life, so I need to rest. If you call me out so often at this time, it will only backfire. Although I said I would help you, I don't think I need to help you with such trivial matters, right?" Who would have thought that Pan Xi's temper was so bad, could this be the result of female ghost getting angry and waking up?

"Stop joking around, are you really going to help us if we are in trouble?" We can't find our way inside right now, but we know we can definitely go a long way, and we just need a little help. " I said.

"What are you talking about? You're walking around in circles. Doesn't that mean that you don't know how to walk this dark path anymore?" I remember that before we came here, Granny Cat Face told me that there were characters on the rocks at the intersection to indicate the location. Pan Xi replied impatiently.

"But even if we did, we wouldn't be able to understand that rune." We are all members of the Ghost Gate. If it was any other gang, we could still study this rune, but I'm not interested in it at all.

"Tsk, tsk. You really don't want to die. Don't you guys know to look through your own information? This is why the Twelve Scrolls is famous and precious. Because it is an ancient language, there is very little information already available to record the pronunciation of ancient characters. " she said.

So this was how Twelve Scrolls were used! I couldn't wait to open my own Twelve Scrolls and spread it out on the ground to slowly study it. Actually, the words that were written were inscriptions that I was more familiar with, and I could probably guess a few meanings, but if my guess wasn't right, wouldn't I be bringing Pei Qin and the others to the wrong place?

I gave up on this method to study this scrolls, but in the end, it was still Pei Qin who could not bear to see it. Pei Qin said: "Although this Oracle Bone Text has a very good intention, but I won't be able to guess what it actually means. It was Pan Xi who reminded me just now."

"What did he remind you of?" I looked at Pei Qin excitedly. Finally, I could think of a way.

"Then it's just looking at the pronunciation." she said. Looking at the age of the Twelve Scrolls, it shouldn't have been written during the Oracle period, it was just that it used such a small number of words to replace the traditional characters later on. There was no way to pronounce the oracle bone script. At the very least, it had to start from the time of the Spring and Autumn Battle Country.

"If that's the case, then it should be easier to recognize the voice of the talisman. I said, Pei Qin, you're really something. " I praised Pei Qin, but Pei Qin said it was nothing.

After that, we started to study the pronunciation of the markings. Originally, it was written in the traditional Chinese characters that were similar to talisman's pronunciation, so it was easy to solve the problem. After that, we tried to piece together and read it out loud, and the string of talisman s repeated themselves a few times, before finally succeeding in reading it down.

"It's practically the same, isn't this the sentence recorded on the Twelve Scrolls? "Not a single word is lacking, and just happens to be able to use the meaning that we found earlier." Pei Qin said.

After opening it, it turned out to be the words I saw beside the coffin in tomb chamber when I first entered, "Anyone who enters this sect can live forever."

What was the meaning of this? At first, I thought these words were used to describe the ghostland, but I didn't think that I would see these words again at a certain entrance in the Underworld, so my impression of them became even deeper.

Only this time, I completely believed the meaning of that sentence …
