Qinglong Ghost Palace Chapter 65: The Stone Coffin
Although the movement was not as good as the earth was shaking, it was difficult for everyone to flee, not to mention that most of them still had the time to do it. It was just a quiet outside, Xiao Su was surprised. These survivors of the Northern Hunan Kingdom have been based here for many years, so they should take the lead in taking measures.
I wonder if they had left this dangerous village long ago and abandoned us here.
Everyone was about to open the door, and I was about to pick up the mysterious woman and run for life. Suddenly, a cool night wind blew in through the gap between the bronze window frames. Outside the door of the hall, a yellow dizzy light lit up, and the door was opened.
It turned out that the old chief of Beixiang State walked in with two soldiers. When he saw Jiazi's legs, he quickly spoke to him a few sign languages.
We were all wondering what the old chief said, and stared at Jiazi's legs with big eyes.
He scratched his head and said, "Ang, don't worry! This earthquake has been caused by it, and it has been around since ancient times. This bronze house was built for this earthquake. It's okay. It will pass in a while. Everyone will continue to rest in the house. Don't be impatient."
At this time, the shock feeling really began to decline. The old chief waved his hand. The two soldiers who followed him were wrapped in thin animal skins, covering their lower bodies, and carrying bamboo baskets in their hands to add water to each table.
At this time, the old chief looked at me and nodded. The corner of his mouth could not hide a smile from the bottom of his heart. He gestured to Jiazi's legs a few times, and Jiazi's legs said to me: "Old Guo, let's go out with the old village leader. He has something to explain to you."
I patted Jiazi's chest and teased, "I'm talking about Jiazi's legs. What level have you reached in the so-called Kunyu? Don't be foolish."
Jiazi's legs tsk and said, "Hey, Lao Guo, you're underestimating people. Although I don't know the ancient Chinese and miscellaneous characters in the tombs like you know, as long as I have come into contact with them, I don't know. Then my Jiazi Sect really doesn't have that deep inheritance information. Then, did Cao Cao's old man issued the "Chief Execution Order" back then, and for thousands of years, the Qiu Sect killed other tomb robbers and other sects. Is the strange books and classics of our clan so decayed like they are now?"
"Although Zhang Qilin taught me not everything, I can handle this simple daily communication. After all, I am also a dignified patriarch of the clan. You are not insulting me."
As we were talking, we followed the old chief's butt to an underground secret room located in the center of the village. There was no lock. We pushed open the bronze door and walked in. I found that it was a huge sarcophagus coffin!
I quickly pierced Jiazi's legs with my elbow, winked him, and asked him to ask what was going on.
Jiazi Le and I went to the same place.
He gestured with the old chief for a while, and I said casually, "Jiazi Le, can't the old village leader speak? Although the current language is slightly different from that of a thousand years ago, the general meaning is still possible to communicate."
Jiazilu looked back at me, and when he heard this, he felt reasonable, and he fell into the vicious circle of Kunyu. He said, "It's all Zhang Qilin. He told me that if he wanted to meet someone from the bronze village, he had to communicate in Kunyu, otherwise there would be big trouble. This is the purpose of him teaching me Kunyu before he came, but now thinking about it, this guy seems to know everything. In this case, he pretended not to know anything and came to the grave with us."
"Don't look at his young appearance, this guy is actually a Yin Tiger. I said Guo Zang, I'm just here to make my tribe's treasure, the Three Stone Mirror. I'll give you what happened. I swear to the heavens that I never thought of harming you."
I didn't care about the old chief's strange expressions when he saw us, and asked Jiazi Le directly, saying, "What's wrong? Jiazi Le, you have something to say. What do you mean by Zhang Qilin want to harm me? Is there anything I deserve to be harmed by him?"
Jiazilu was a little anxious when she heard this. She looked very unpleasant to listen and said, "Don't look at us who have known each other for a long time, like good friends. In fact, we are all based on the premise of cooperation on interests. As for what we have cooperated, I can't tell you now, but I tell you from the relationship between us in the past few days that he is definitely not a very good person. I don't know much about the past between you and him, but it seems that Zhang Qilin has already started to follow you in his early twenties during the Republic of China. There is still more than ten years to be a century. He must have made some plans to follow you. I don't know when I will meet again this time, but if I do this today, you must remember it, it will only be good for you."
When he said this, I was moved. It seemed that there were many doubts on him. According to the tone of Jiazi Le, Faqiu pointed out that he was very familiar with the Qinglong Ghost Palace tomb. He also knew that there were descendants of Beixiang Kingdom here, and he was the first to teach Kun language to Jiazi Le.
Suddenly, a person I trusted very much in my heart felt very strange at this moment. This feeling was even more terrifying than the corpse in the coffin.
I looked at the old village leader of the remnants of Beixiang Kingdom again, and couldn't help but sigh in a chill, thinking that he couldn't speak, they all rely on this sign language to communicate. Not bad! Since we came in, they have fiddled with sign language conversations like mutes, and have never seen them speak any audio language!
As soon as I communicated with Jiazi Le, Jiazi Le also felt that it was very strange, so I used sign language to chat with the old village leader. The movement was very slow during the process. I don’t know if Jiazi Le was not thoroughly learned, or was he communicating carefully. The old village leader sighed and gestured a few more times.
Jiazi turned his head and looked at me in shock and said, "The old village leader said that their entire village could not speak, nor did they have a cultural heritage and legal system. Since the Big Skull Mountain was in this place, they have never spoken. The older generation of ancestors told them that they were descendants of the remnants of the Northern Hunan Kingdom and were the people who were loyal to Zhuge Yan, the king of the Xiongnu Kingdom. His tomb was the Skull Mountain. The responsibilities of their ancestors for generations were to protect this mountain."
"And, this place was cursed and could not be left at all. Even if you go to sea to build fishing boats, you are still going around in circles. Some of the descendants of the Beixiang Kingdom's survivors have escaped, but they either disappeared or left their bodies in the wild. The more people gave up, they were completely here. They were waiting for someone."
I asked, "Who?"
Jiazi pointed at me and said, "It's you."
I was very surprised and quickly asked Jiazilu to have a detailed conversation with the old man. What was going on? Why were you waiting for me? I had no relationship with Beixiang Kingdom.
Jiazi Le went to compete with the old village leader again. It took nearly half an hour before Jiazi Le to finish it. The expression on his face could only be described in complex terms.
He said, "Uh... Lao Guo, I don't know where to start with you, but all this is related to divination, and more importantly, the owner of the sarcophagus. The people in the sarcophagus saved the lives of the sarcophagus. The result of his divination was that on this day, a fellow member of his tribe would come here and reverse the fate of the sarcophagus' remnants!"
Jiazi paused, took a long breath with difficulty, and continued, "The person in this sarcophagus is..."
I raised my arm, pushed my palm forward, and immediately interrupted him, and I said, "Wait first, let me guess. Is he... Guo Shoujing?"
Chapter completed!
