Go crazy!You call me the ultimate?

Bury the coffin of souls on the main road, let thousands of people trample on it, and take away bad luck.

It sounds absurd, but in fact, this is a method that only experts know.

Ji Changsheng asked involuntarily.

"Who taught you to do this?"

The fellow immediately replied with reverence on his face.

"It's the elder of the village. He is the oldest and most respected old man in the village."

Ji Changsheng nodded and asked again.

"Then what is the elder's name? We want to visit his old man's home."

The fellow quickly waved his hands and smiled.

"I appreciate your kindness for the elder, but you don't go there, you won't see him. He has a withdrawn personality and never sees outsiders."

"As for the elder's name, we only know that the elders in the village call him Tu Gu, which means elder brother. No one knows his real name."

When the little brother heard it, his eyes lit up and he glanced at Ji Changsheng, but he didn't speak.

Ji Changsheng didn't continue to ask, but walked aside with his younger brother.

"Brother, what do you seem to know?"

The little brother shook his head and replied.

"I just vaguely remember that someone called me that before. I may have really been to Yunnan, but I can't remember it."

Ji Changsheng couldn't help being taken aback. Could it be that the person who dug out Chen Yulou's eyes in the cave more than 70 years ago was really my little brother?

But why would he do this?

To know the answer, it seems that the only way is to go to that cave in person.

They waited silently by the side of the road for more than an hour, until it was completely dark, and the villagers finally finished their work.

That middle-aged man was from the small village at the foot of Zhelong Mountain. He expressed his apologies for delaying the time of comrade scientists.

In order to express the hospitality of their local people, he volunteered to act as a guide and took them to the village to settle down.

The village is not far away, and we arrived at the foot of the mountain in half an hour.

The mountains here are sparsely populated, and the houses of the villagers are not gathered together, but dotted across a large area at the foot of the mountain.

The place where the guide brought them was an inn in the village that specially received guests from other places, called Caiyun Inn.

Only then did Ji Changsheng nod secretly, it was finally the same as in the original book, they did not come to the wrong place.

The owner of the Caiyun Inn is a tall and thick man, his wife is a passionate minority woman, and he has two daughters aged [-] or [-]. The eldest daughter is called Peacock.

The fat man looked at the peacock, and couldn't help thinking of the clouds in Yaozhai.

The dinner was very sumptuous. The boss said that Zhelong Mountain is located in a remote area. In the past, only shopkeepers and craftsmen who went to the village would patronize it. Besides, there would be businessmen who bought tea every spring.

In addition, no outsiders come here all year round, so Nuoda is a village with only this inn, and usually there are very few guests.

A scientific expedition team like them only meets once in more than ten years, so they are considered rare guests.

Although the locals don't have much contact with the outside world, they are very warm and hospitable. When the boss talks, he can't stop talking, and he keeps trying to persuade him to drink.

After drinking for three rounds, Ji Changsheng intentionally or unintentionally asked about the elder's situation.

The boss said: "Elder Tu Gu is actually not a local. He came here before I was born, maybe more than 60 years ago."

"He is a very capable person. He often sees doctors for the villagers, buys medicine for free, and teaches us some useful techniques. Every family has received his favor. He is the most respected person in the village."

"After the death of the old village chief, Elder Tu Gu is the only elder in the village."

When the fat man heard this, he couldn't help asking curiously.

"He's a foreigner, why didn't he leave once he came? Did he become the son-in-law of the village?"

The boss smiled and shook his head.

"No, although the old village chief told him about several marriages, he rejected them all."

"We asked him later, why did he stay?"

"He only said that he was tired of the outside world and wanted to find a quiet place to live without being disturbed by others, so we didn't ask any more questions."

When Ji Changsheng heard this, he already had a calculation in his heart.

A foreigner, with no relatives or reasons, will live here for the rest of his life.

Besides, this person came here more than 60 years ago, so he must be very old now.

Ji Changsheng would not believe that there is any expert who is tired of the world, he thinks this person only has two purposes.

Either to avoid enemies, they ran to hide in this isolated ravine.

Or just for something local!
There are no rare products in this Zhelong Mountain. The only thing that can make people think about it for a lifetime is the King's Tomb!
Moreover, this elder knows how to deal with the coffin of souls, he is obviously an expert, definitely not an ordinary person.

So the second possibility is more likely to be dedicated to the king's tomb!

Ji Changsheng couldn't help admiring this Elder Tu Gu for spending his entire life on an ancient tomb!
The patience and perseverance is amazing.

Thinking of this, Ji Changsheng mentioned again that they wanted to meet this Elder Tu Gu.

Wang Kaixuan was a man of affairs, so he quickly took out a bunch of expensive gifts, half of which were given to the villagers present, and the other half were planned to be given to the elders.

These gifts were prepared before they came, just to build a good relationship with the local people.

When the boss and the man saw these gifts, their attitudes changed accordingly.

"It seems that you are going to visit sincerely, so we will take you there tomorrow, but the elder has a weird temper, and I can't guarantee whether he will see you or not."

A feast of wine was drunk until midnight.

In the early morning of the next day, Ji Changsheng asked the others to stay in the inn, and only brought his younger brother and the boss with him.

The boss took them over a small river and walked for more than an hour before seeing a thatched cottage in the distance.

"The elder lives there alone. When you get to the door, you wait outside first. I will go in and make an announcement."

Ji Changsheng raised his head and nodded secretly.

The location of this thatched cottage is very particular, facing the water in the front and the mountains in the back, with a wide view. Not only is the Feng Shui excellent, but it also implies Qimen gossip.

This Elder Tu Gu is an expert!
The three of them came to the gate, the boss opened the door and went in to make an announcement, and two big dogs rushed out, looking at Ji Changsheng and the little brother warily.

The little brother waved his hand lightly, and the two big dogs barked in a low voice, and they all lay obediently on the ground, wagging their tails vigorously.

A moment passed.

I only heard the voice of an old man coming from inside the house.

"It turns out that there is a visitor from afar, please come in, both of you."

Ji Changsheng and the younger brother looked at each other, the voice was full of arrogance, and they were actually top-notch masters!
There are very few people with such a cultivation base in the world, and they are all famous and influential people.

Who is this Elder Tu Gu?

The two walked across the yard and into the house.

But I saw that the furnishings in the room were very simple, with a portrait of Lu Dongbin hanging on the wall and a burner of famous incense.

A tall old man with white beard and hair sat in front of the portrait, looking at the two guests who came in.
