The patriarch looked at me nervously, with a very troubled expression. After a few seconds, he sighed longly and gritted his teeth and said:
"You...if you really want to know, then dig up the grave yourself and take a look. Anyway, I...I can't tell you personally..."
I was stunned, not expecting him to be so stubborn, which made me become more interested in the things under the grave.
I looked back at the raised grave mound, and suddenly I felt nervous for no reason...
"The Archmage..."
The birth ghost called me, bringing me back to reality from my nervous thoughts. I looked at her searchingly, waiting for her to continue.
"Arch mage, I know that I have shouldered a lot of life debts. I have no way to reincarnate and cannot escape the fate of my soul. But before that, I hope you can agree to my request..."
Looking at her slightly blood-red eyes, I understood what she meant. After a little hesitation, I walked over to the patriarch and untied the rope that was tied to him, and then pulled the confused Aguo aside.
I winked at Aguo Niang, who had been following me invisible. Aguo Niang immediately understood and covered Aguo's eyes and ears with her hands. She covered her eyes with her ghost hands and her ears with her ghost hands.
She would not be able to hear or see what was going to happen in front of her for the time being.
At this time, the birth ghost floated to the clan leader's side,
"You...what do you want to do??"
The patriarch was trembling and leaning on his crutches, looking at the birth ghost with a horrified look on his face.
The birth ghost grinned, and his pale face instantly turned ferocious.
"Haha... You made me suffer from the pain of resentment day and night, and you made it impossible for me and my son to go through reincarnation, and you deprived us of the opportunity to live in this world. What do you think I want to do?!"
At the end of the story, the birth ghost suddenly let out a shrill scream. The clan leader trembled all over and turned around to run away. However, he fell to the ground after only a few steps...
"No... don't come here... think of us as husband and wife..."
Before he finished speaking, the ghost opened his mouth, and the blood bait suddenly sprang out and pierced the neck of the clan leader. The patriarch screamed, and his whole body twitched, but the ghost did not stop because of this, and the blood bait continued.
sucking the flesh and blood from the clan leader’s body…
"Ah!!!" screamed.
The patriarch's body quickly shrank and dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the facial features on his wrinkled old face were rapidly deformed, leaving only two round eyes, full of fear and unwillingness...
He feebly raised his withered hand and stretched it towards me tremblingly, and murmured vaguely:
"Help...save me...I don't want to die yet..."
At the end of the sentence, my head tilted and I completely died...
"Hehe...haha...wuwu..."
The ghost looked up to the sky and laughed, and the laughter gradually turned into a cry. The sound was sharp and harsh, as if he was venting the pain and anger that had been suppressed in his heart for more than thirty years!
I took a deep breath and walked slowly in front of her. She gradually stopped smiling... and slowly closed her blood-red eyes. I stretched out my index finger and pressed it against her ghost gate, causing her ghost body to tremble.
Then it slowly turned into wisps of black air from head to toe and dissipated.
Looking at the black air floating into the night sky, my heart became heavier and heavier. No matter the patriarch, his wife or children, they were just pawns to be used. The real secret of Quzhai was buried in the so-called immortal cemetery in front of me.
"Holy shit!"
I suddenly thought of a key question and couldn't help but curse,
"I forgot to ask the patriarch who ordered him!"
Seeing the clan leader lying on the ground and turned into a human being, I felt very upset, but now that the person was dead, it was useless to worry anymore.
"Brother Lin Yu...what...what's going on?"
At this time, Aguoniang had already removed the ghost-covered eyes and ghost-covered ears. She looked at the corpse of the clan leader lying on the ground, covered her mouth and asked in a trembling voice.
"Don't worry about him. From now on, no one will dare to bully you anymore..."
I comforted her a few words, then walked through the three red pillars to the grave. As soon as one foot stepped over the red rope and colorful flags into the grave, I was stunned, and then hurriedly retracted my foot, surprised.
Looking at the grave soil.
"How...how could this happen..."
I saw that the grave soil that was normal before has now become pitch black, as if it has been poured with a thick layer of ink. And when I stepped on it with one foot, I immediately felt a biting chill passing through the sole and running down the sole of my foot.
Spread throughout the body.
This feeling is very familiar, as if I have experienced it somewhere...
"Brother Lin Yu, what's wrong?"
Aguo came to me and asked.
I stopped her,
"Don't come over! Stay back!!! No matter what happens, don't come over!"
I spoke loudly, partly to tell her, and partly to tell Aguo Niang.
I myself also took a few steps back, closed my eyes and pondered, thinking about where I had encountered the same thing. After a few seconds, I suddenly opened my eyes and said in silence:
"The Tomb of Immortal Master?!"
Yes! It’s absolutely not wrong! Last time I encountered the same situation with Lao Yutou in front of Xianye’s tomb. Could it be that this place has something to do with Xianye? But is this possible?
I suddenly thought that this cemetery in Quzhai is called... Immortal Tomb, even the names are so similar!
Thinking of this, I took a few deep breaths, slowly raised my hand, cut my fingertips with a seven-inch copper nail, and dripped blood on the grave soil.
“呲呲…”
Bursts of white smoke immediately emerged from the tomb soil, and then the black soil slowly faded away from its dark color. I looked at this scene in surprise, looking at the scene exactly the same as in front of the immortal master's tomb, and I was extremely horrified.
.
Following the path opened by the soul-eating blood, I walked step by step to the blood-red tombstone. I took out the folding shovel from my backpack and started digging. Aguo and Aguo Niang, who were standing outside the cemetery, had a tacit understanding.
Didn't stop me…
The ghost said that there is no coffin or body under the grave, only a wooden box, so it is not that easy to find...
"Bang..."
About an hour later, the head of the folding shovel seemed to have touched something. I was so happy that I threw the shovel away and started digging with my hands...
After a few more minutes, I dug out a dark wooden box from the soil with difficulty. The wooden box was not big, but it felt extremely cold to the touch, and it was almost impossible to touch it with bare hands...
I found two pieces of red cloth from my backpack and put them on my palms. I carefully picked up the wooden box to see what was underneath, but as soon as I picked it up, I dropped it to the ground.
"Um…"
I couldn't help but groaned, covering my chest with one hand, and started breathing heavily. I don't know why, but there was a sudden pain in my chest...
