grave-keeping note

51. Classic of Mountains and Seas Suspense

51. Sutra of Mountains and Seas

I didn't expect such a troublesome thing. It's almost time to rest. As the second master said, he has the strength to leave.

When the coffin on the wall appeared again, I shouted. But I know that's not what I saw. These coffins are the same size as the one I saw last time, but these coffins are covered.

The second master looked at it for a long time and asked.

"Have you seen it?"

"I've seen it, but the lid of the coffin is open."

The second master almost stuck to the wall to see those things. I didn't expect his eyesight to be like this.

"Second Master, your eyes..."

"It's okay, I'm old."

Actually, I feel very sad. At this age, I should be old enough to enjoy the happiness of my family, but he is still doing his duty as a gravekeeper. Maybe this is a kind of letter.

The second master looked at it for more than ten minutes, and he turned his head and said.

"This is the coffin you see."

I almost didn't jump up.

"How many do you count?"

I think it's a little unlikely. What's painted is what's painted. How can it be closed? The lid of the coffin is obviously closed. Why did it open again? I feel very strange and incomprehensible.

I began to count the coffins as the second master said. I counted the whole ninety-nine and told the second master. The second master sat there smoking and didn't say anything. I don't know what he was thinking.

The second master finished smoking and looked at me and said.

"Actually, I don't want you to be a gravekeeper. Look at my life, I'm still alone when I'm old, and the gravekeeper is miserable!"

I don't know why the second master suddenly said this. I didn't say anything, and I felt very sad.

"Oh, let's not talk about it. Let's go out alive. These coffins are painted coffins. In ancient times, some coffin painters were officials and used by officials. They are all officials. Because these coffins are a little evil and have not been recorded in history, so they are not known to people.

I didn't expect it to be like this. It's amazing to draw a coffin. I'm afraid the second master won't know what method was used.

"We entered the water mausoleum, which is a part of the water mausoleum, just a part, about one-tenth of this water mausoleum, at least what part of the mausoleum. I don't know, but I know some organs here."

I was stunned. I didn't expect that the second master would know the mechanism here. Although there was only a part of it, it was very strange.

"Maybe you are very strange. In fact, this may be a fateful thing. After I became a gravekeeper, my temperament also became strange, and I encountered more strange things. I also have one or two things about Shuiling, that is, the half of the Shuiling map, which is actually from the outer tomb, which is of no use at all now. However, in the library of Xinla City, I saw a book, a handwritten book written in Xinlawen, which actually recorded what happened in Shuiling.

I'm very strange about things. The people who built Shuiling in those years couldn't survive. This is a fixed number, but it's also strange that someone can record these things.

"Actually, when I read this book, I didn't believe it very much, because there were few people who could survive, but this person survived. He was the second ancestor of Xinla City, and he was one of the few coffin painters in those years. Xinla City also needs to exchange outside culture. In those years, the second ancestor came out of Xinla City and blended into the painting coffin. He went to Jianling to be a coffin painter. In the book, he said that he escaped from the disaster. He painted the coffin and hid himself in it. It was the painting coffin painted on this stone wall that he could escape. And he knows about this part of Shuiling, and there are illustrations. The bone wind chime we encountered is recorded. I know it because I saw it. At that time, I couldn't remember where I saw it, but I heard it. Now I remember it, and the bone wind chime was made by him. It is a kind of mathematics for new people. The calculation method is the patellar count, and the counting is secondary. Even the newcomers rarely know what else can be done besides counting. The patellarectomy is actually an evil art and a kind of protection technique. After the catastrophe encountered in Xinla City, the patella technique was used. In fact, not everyone who wants to enter Xinla City can enter. Ordinary people walk on that road, but just walk to other places. Xinla City has patella surgery, which is like a barrier. Well, the new people can go in, and other people don't want to find it at all, let alone go in. In fact, Master Yi has wanted to go in all his life, but he didn't find Xinla City until he died.

After the second master finished speaking, he strangled the cigarette and looked fierce. I don't know the reason for his fierceness, but it was very scary. What the second master said made me not expect at all. I was a little confused. It turned out that the new man still had such a means.

Actually, I thought of it, but I didn't expect that the newly pulled people, an almost destroyed nation, would have this kind of skill.

"Now that I know, I think the book should also mention something about that kind of power, which can control people and control that probability."

"There is no record. There is absolutely no such thing. In fact, we shouldn't come in. I think it's just a temptation."

"No, this place always appears in the dream. It attracted Ji Xiao gently to let her accomplish something."

"Since this is the case, the power will definitely be in the center of the mausoleum, a more hidden place. We can't get close to it at all. If it is close, it is also death. We can't control this power, but we should know what to let them accomplish?"

"Ji Xiaoqing doesn't know now. Xin Zhiqiang may know, but if he dies, whoever says the task will die. Therefore, we can't know. Maybe Xin Zhiqiang is sure that he wrote it, but he is dead. I think this force can still control the news. If people die, the news is also No, if anyone knows this news and this task, I'm afraid they will die.

"Then we shouldn't look for it?"

"I think so, but I don't want Ji Xiao to die lightly."

The second master stopped talking. I know that we can't do it at all. Maybe we know that we will also die in this task. We should go out and think of other ways. This is the world of the dead. We should go to the world of the living to solve things.

I also hesitated. This is very difficult for me. Deputy Mayor Zhao died and Xin Zhiqiang died. So can Ji Xiaoqing escape? I don't know.

It suddenly occurred to me that Erzu knew what was going on in Shuiling and could record it without dying. Maybe Xinla City is a good place for Ji Xiao to hide. I have this idea, but I'm worried that the second master won't agree. I didn't say it. Now the most important thing is that we go out. I want to find the hidden coffin of the second ancestor, and we may be able to escape.

I think I said what I thought.

"That's right. Which one do you think is the ninety-nine coffins?"

"I don't think so. Can people live in a palm-sized coffin? Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"Just look for it. There must be."

An hour later, I looked for it for the second time. I gave up and there was no clue. How can I find it? The second master sat there smoking non-stop.

After I sat down, he stood up and looked one by one. In fact, the second master stood in front of a painting coffin and stared at it for a long time.

"I guess this is it."

If I estimate this, I don't know how many times I will die. I sat there still. The second master waved his hand before I got up. I walked over and the coffin lid was opened, but I couldn't see anything inside.

The second master slowly stretched out his hand and was about to reach the coffin. He withdrew and looked at me. I turned my head and did everything. Even the second master's turn.

The second master "cut" and put his hand in, and the second master's hand could really reach into the painting coffin. I had a cold war. It seems that these painting coffins are real, hidden in the official way and used by officials. It's really a pity that the craftsmanship of this painting coffin has been lost in history.

The second master suddenly pulled his hand back and jumped to one side. I was so scared that I also jumped aside. I don't know what happened. The second master's expression was very strange. The painting coffin was slowly getting bigger, and then came down from the wall.

My head is numb when I see it. How can this happen?

The painting coffin came down and put it in front of us. The second master looked at me.

"Let's go in?"

I walked over and looked inside. It was an empty painting coffin. I didn't know if what the second master said would be true. I still went in, and the second master followed him in, and the coffin was covered.

"Don't move, no matter what happens."

When I heard a movement, my heart beat wildly. It was like someone was knocking on something outside, digging something, and then there was a sound of talking.

I think this will be a bad thing. There are people in this water mausoleum. That's definitely not a human. I guess it's another kind of human, or weird thing, who can actually speak human words.

I remember that it is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that another animal that can speak human words is simply very terrible.

The lid of the coffin was suddenly lifted, and at the same time, there were two screams, and then there was a dead silence. I was almost scared to death. I saw two people standing outside the coffin, one suddenly fell down, the other ran wildly and disappeared.

The second master climbed out of the coffin, and my legs were straight and weak.

The second master walked to the man who fell to the ground and took a look.

"Dead."

"They are..."

"Tomb robber."

I climbed out of the coffin and looked around. I was sure that it was a strange thing that we came out in this way.

"Painting coffins can move things, and we are moved here, in this coffin."

"If we move here and no one comes to rob the tomb, we will not die?"

"This is the probability, that power, the magical power."

I was still trembling in my heart. Looking at the dead man, our second master hurriedly left here.

When we returned to the city, the second master knew that Gu Ye had returned to Xinla City. He was very unhappy and pulled his old face, but did not say anything.

I was eager to know how Ji Xiaoqing was doing, but I looked at the second master's face, and it was not easy to show it so quickly. I went out in the afternoon and called Ji Xiaoqing.

I went to Ji Xiaoqing's home. I saw that the blue dot on Ji Xiao's arm still existed.

"Are you still dreaming these two days?"

Ji Xiao nodded gently and cried. She hugged me.

"I'm scared, I'm really scared."

I decided to take Ji Xiaoqing to Xinla City, where only Ji Xiaoqing could avoid this disaster.

I took Ji Xiao away three days later. I didn't tell the second master. I don't think the second master will agree. However, the second master will know sooner or later.

I can't control that much now. After Ji Xiao and I went on the road, we felt a little strange, but I couldn't say what made me feel strange.
