Jia Mo

Everyone was startled and retreated one after another.Yunzhi and the others came to Qi Yin's side, and the corpse raised its head, revealing a beehive-like pitted face, the black mouth hole was wide open, and the distorted face froze into a frightening expression, as if silently and Roaring miserably.

But he doesn't bite anyone, he just grabs his backside with his hands, until the backside is smashed to pieces.Qi Yin's back hurt when he saw it, and he grabbed the thing for a long time, then suddenly turned his face and crawled towards the crowd.Everyone was shocked, but Du Yunzhi was so bold that he stepped forward and kicked him into the swamp.

The corpse struggled in the swamp, and the more it moved, the deeper it sank, unable to climb up, it just sank like that.

Everyone was so frightened that their three souls and seven souls were displaced. Even though they had seen a monster with a terrifying appearance, it was the first time they had seen such a disgusting monster.

Qi Lingshu frowned and said, "There is something behind him."

Qi Yin nodded, presumably it was that thing that bit the monster into pits and pits. The origin of that thing is unknown, so I'm afraid it's hard to deal with. It's the best way to kick them all into the swamp and let them sink together.

Everyone repaired and started on the road again. It was completely bright, and the enchantment on the sky was revealed in the sunlight.The enchantment is also different from Feng Huan's, like a gorgeous glow, undulating like waves in the dome.Carefully inspecting the light leaking from the leaf gaps, one can faintly see magnificent colors.The remaining snow on the ground melted, they stepped on the glistening puddles all the way, and arrived at Qi Shenwei's cemetery in less than a stick of incense.

However, when they got closer, everyone was stunned.

There was a big hole in Qi Shenwei's tomb.

The white marble tombstone was lying on the side, the ground was full of potholes, and the feet were covered with mud.Looking down from the top of the cave entrance, the cave is very deep, and the bottom is dark, occasionally the light reflected by the water waves can be seen. There is a tomb passage on the left, which probably leads to the tomb.An indescribable rotten smell filled the air, as if it had been frozen in the cave for thousands of years, and today it was released all at once.

The terrain here is low, and it seems that the snow melted and merged into a current, which washed away the tomb.Qi Yin poked his head down and looked at the tomb passage, it was pitch black and he couldn't see the end.This is really a big deal by Wu Fang, to make his father's tomb so spacious.

Qi Lingshu's face was ugly, Qi Yin thought it was because Qi Shenwei's tomb was washed away, and he felt uncomfortable.But he squatted down in front of the cave and said, "This is not Master's tomb."

"That's not right," Yun Zhi looked down at the map, "I didn't go wrong."

Qi Lingshu said: "Master passed away suddenly, the tomb was just a half-person-high pit hastily dug, and no bricks were even laid."

Qi Yin looked down, the hole was at least as tall as a person.

Zhaoming asked suspiciously, "Elder Qi's tomb will change 72 times?"

Fang Xinxiao also looked up in surprise, the black water reflected the faces of the people, all of them were gloomy, dead-like, with an indescribable gloomyness.

"It's not that it's changed," Yun knew, "it's because it was washed away by the water."

He pointed to the wall of the cave. There was a protruding part in the middle, where obvious layers of soil and traces of water washing could be seen.Obviously, the upper part is the tomb where Qi Shenwei was buried, and the lower part is the tomb passage they saw now.Ganqing Wufang pressed his father's tomb on top of someone else's tomb, this damn lacks great virtue.Qi Yin complained a bit: "You have no way to choose the cemetery, and you are too careless. Why don't you first check if there is a senior who has already taken the seat? If you press people's heads like this, aren't you afraid of cutting off children and grandchildren?"

Yun Zhi shrugged, "Probably because I'm afraid that Uncle Qi will be alone, so find him a companion to chat with."

Qi Lingshu glanced at him, and said: "The tomb is flooded by the flood, I'm afraid the inner and outer coffins will be damaged, I'll go down and have a look."

After speaking, he jumped down, and the black water fully reached his ankles.Yun Zhi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I'll accompany you!"

Just as he was about to jump down, there was an indistinct sound coming from the depths of the tomb passage along with a gust of wind.The strange sound sounded like a human voice, vague and indistinct.There was a human voice out of nowhere, and everyone looked at each other, everyone looked like they had seen a ghost, and Qi Lingshu also stood there for a long time without moving.But soon everyone figured it out again, the water had retreated more than half, the hole must have been flushed out for a long time, maybe some monster went in.

The voice was whispering, as if it was repeating something non-stop.Qi Yin listened intently, his spiritual power was weak, and his ear power was far inferior to that of others, so it was very difficult for him to hear.

Suddenly Qi Lingshu's face turned pale, his eyes widened, and he said, "It's Master!"

When he said this, everyone was taken aback.Qi Yin was also shocked, his fat master said that his father was half dead, could it be true that he still has life?Qi Lingshu didn't say a word, and rushed in.Yun Zhi hurriedly jumped into the pit and chased after him, not forgetting to shout: "Hei Zai, follow!"

Hack your uncle!Qi Yin cursed secretly, but had no choice but to jump down too.

The tomb passage was very gloomy and cold, and as soon as he walked in, there were gusts of wind, which made Qi Yin's bones seem to have frost hairs.The cool water soaked his ankles, Qi Yin ran forward with all his strength, but Qi Lingshu, like a mouse, had already run away without a trace.

Everyone walked together for an unknown period of time, and finally a vision suddenly opened up.A long underground river stretches across the front, both ends are vast, and the source and end cannot be seen clearly.A solitary stone arch bridge was built in the northwest, and the other side of the river was dark, vaguely showing the shape of an underground palace.Qi Lingshu stood on the bank of the river holding the lantern symbol, looking down at the dark river below.In the middle of the river floated a large peachwood coffin with a hole in it, and the coffin was empty.

Looking at it this way, the matter is very clear, Qi Shenwei is not dead, he was buried alive.Later, it was probably when the tomb was flooded by the flood that destroyed the coffin, and he finally broke out of the coffin.Qi Yin breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that this dog sword fairy wouldn't die so easily after the disaster had lasted for thousands of years.

"The troops are divided into two groups," Qi Lingshu made a decisive decision, "I'll go to the master, you go up, and continue to look for Yunlan."

"No," Yun knew, "how can we let you go to your master alone?"

Zhaoming and Fang Xinxiao nodded, Yunzhi continued: "My junior brother and I will be with you." He nodded to Fang Xinxiao and the two of them, "You two go up."

Zhaoming was stunned on the spot when he said that.In the final analysis, Yun Lan is Feng Huan's disciple, no matter what, it should be Feng Huanshan who is looking for Feng Huanshan, and Wufangshan who is looking for Wufangshan.Unexpectedly, Qi Lingshu nodded in agreement, "I'll give you the talisman. If you don't see Yunlan around, go directly to Miedu Peak and report to the elders for further discussion."

Zhaoming stammered, "Little Martial Uncle, this..."

"Follow orders." Qi Lingshu said.

The little martial uncle had already spoken, so Zhaoming had no choice but to agree, took the order talisman, and led Fang Xinxiao away step by step.

Watching them disappear into the depths of the corridor, the three set off along the river embankment to the small bridge.Yun Zhi smiled as he walked, "Little Martial Uncle, since we are going to go together next time, let's meet honestly this time. If you guessed correctly, you came here for Martial Uncle Qi's tomb in the first place, right?"

What he said was right, along the way, Qi Lingshu had a clear goal, and he didn't come here to find Fulan at all.Qi Lingshu didn't answer, just said: "You speak first."

"My master has a life lamp of Uncle Qi's life. The lamp has not been extinguished yet, but news of Wu Fang's death has already spread. Master is worried about Uncle Qi, so he sent us to find out." Yun knew.

"We also found bloodstains in your stone room." Qi Yin added, "By the way, let me ask you something, has your master ever practiced the secret art of Wuluo?"

Qi Lingshu shook his head, "No, Master specializes in swordsmanship, and has never been involved in spells."

This is strange... how did those five people die?Qi Yin frowned in thought.

Qi Lingshu took out a bamboo tube from the Qiankun bag and handed it to Yunzhi, "I received the bad news in Beidi on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month. When I returned to Wufang, the master had already finished coffining and stopped in Wufang Hall. The master went into the earth and returned to the stone room, but found this thing in the cracks of the steps."

Yun Zhi opened the bamboo tube, Qi Yin leaned over his head to look at it, and was startled, there was a small piece of pale finger bone inside.

"This is not Master's finger, but I also know that there must be something strange about Master's sudden death." Qi Lingshu closed his eyes to hide the deep grief in his eyes, "When I left Wufang, he was clearly recovering from his injuries. I was able to walk on the ground. On the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, bad news suddenly came. Since then, I have searched secretly, but found nothing until you have nowhere to go."

"How did you know we were looking for Master Qi?" Yun Zhi asked suspiciously.

"Yun Lan's disappearance, isn't it your plan to sneak into the Forbidden Forest?" Qi Lingshu said indifferently, "Forgive me, the drama between you and Yun Yin was too fake, Yun Lan disappeared, and you two didn't panic at all." He Glancing at Qi Yin, he coughed and said, "Especially you, Yun Lan has a deep friendship with you, you shouldn't be like this."

Qi Yin: "..."

What does friendship mean?Qi Yin was speechless, except for the occasional unreasonable thoughts about his brother, other times he was innocent, okay?He figured it out, and sure enough, he was pretending to be serious, and this kid was also a scumbag on the inside.

Yun Zhi folded his arms and laughed, "To be honest, you really guessed wrong. The disappearance of Junior Brother Dumb is not in our plan. My junior brother is a god-man, and we can't control what he does."

He spoke vaguely, obviously unwilling to say more about Yun Lan.Qi Lingshu didn't ask much, just nodded and said: "However, the reason why I am sure of your purpose is that you brought the real Qi Yin."

Qi Yin was taken aback, wondering, "How did you find me? Uh... Could it be that time in Jingquan?"

"I don't know if you have noticed..." Qi Lingshu suddenly fell silent in the middle of speaking, as if he was considering his words, and seemed to be hesitating whether to speak or not.Qi Yin looked at him suspiciously, he paused, and then continued: "Qi Yin, every time you look at me, your eyes are always sad. Maybe I was wrong, but I always feel that there is something wrong in your eyes. A feeling of... being abandoned."

Qi Yin: "..."

There was an awkward silence in the air, Qi Yin smiled dryly, and stammered: "Oh, I just envy you a little bit. This is not normal, you are so handsome, everyone envies you. It's okay now , I don't care anymore. Hahaha!"

"Hei Zi," Yun Zhi said with pity in his eyes, "you look uglier when you smile than when you cry."

Qi Yin choked up, and rolled his eyes at him angrily.

Qi Lingshu said, "I have known you for a long time, Qi Yin, when I was very young. They all said that Master had a child outside. I once wondered why Master didn't look for you, but I still don't know The answer. But I know he's always thinking of you."

Qi Yin was just silent, did he really miss her?It doesn't take much trouble to find him, just hold a sword and you'll be there overnight.Even if he can't recognize him as his son, why can't he come and see how he is doing occasionally, and at least send some money to his aunt, so maybe his life will be easier.Qi Yin smiled flatly, and put on a mocking voice, as if attacking, but also as self-defense, said: "Oh, is that so? Why worry about Faer?"

"Don't you want to know how I found you?" Qi Lingshu stopped and said in a low voice, "Because Yunlan called you a puppy. In March, I received an invitation from Zhonggushan to help them eliminate demons. At that time, I left a glass mirror in the stone room. On the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, when Master was about to die, he kept yelling at the glass mirror, "Puppy."

Qi Yin was stunned.

"I didn't know what it meant at the time. I didn't realize until that day in Jingquan that he wanted to see you for the last time." Qi Lingshu said slowly, "The voice from the tomb just now, over and over again, is also a pup .”

Qi Yin lowered her eyes, her heart seemed to be full of pain, she was indescribably sad.What are you doing, he thought resentfully, do you want to do this?He hated that man for more than ten years, and now he suddenly came to tell him, child, I have difficulties, but in fact, I still love you very much.It seems that as long as this guy loves him, he can be forgiven for abandoning his wife and children for more than ten years.The time of more than ten years has gone like flowing water forever, his mother is gone, and he has grown up. Do you expect him to forgive you for saying "a puppy"!

But the hardness in Qi Yin's heart seemed to be falling to dust, and a small crack loosened unconsciously.He squatted down slowly, the dark river reflected his cheeks, and he smiled miserably at his own shadow.

That man... actually really loves him.

Qi Lingshu and Yun Zhi stood beside him silently looking at his back, he hung his head like a bereaved dog.Qi Lingshu lowered his eyebrows, remembering when Qi Yin was standing under the sword wiping platform and looking at him from afar.When he turned his head away, Qi Yin turned around in a panic, pretending nothing happened.At that time, Qi Yin lowered his head, shrugged his shoulders, put his hands in his sleeves, and walked through the crowd, but his back was surprisingly lonely.

Every time he saw him, Qi Lingshu always felt that he probably took his place.Perhaps fate made a mistake somewhere, Wufang's head disciple should have been Qi Yin, and the respected little uncle should have been Qi Yin, but by accident, another wandering wild child took the lead.It's a bit like the real and fake daughters in a drama, the real protagonist is displaced, and the fake prosperity and wealth.Qi Lingshu thought silently, he owed him.

After a while, Qi Yin stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go find him. I want to ask him why he abandoned me and my mother and left, and why he didn't hear from me for 18 years. He turned around, his deep eyes were unexpectedly calm and firm, "It's been 18 years, it's time, and today I'm going to make a deal with him."

Just as Qi Lingshu was about to nod his head, Fang Xinxiao's voice suddenly sounded from behind him: "Little Uncle!"

Why haven't these two left yet?Qi Yin looked over and saw their panicked faces, Zhaoming said in horror: "Uncle, the entrance to the cave is gone."

"What do you mean?" Qi Lingshu frowned.

"The entrance to the cave is gone!" Fang Xinxiao yelled, "The entrance to the cave has disappeared!"

Qi Lingshu and Yunzhi Qi Yin looked at each other in blank dismay, turned back into the corridor, waded through the water and walked for a long way, finally reached the top.The place that used to be the entrance of the cave turned into a rough rock wall. Qi Lingshu held up the lamp talisman to inspect it carefully. The rock wall was integrated with the surrounding rocks, without any trace of man-made axe. Stone blocked.

"Fucking hell." Yun Zhi stretched out his hand to touch the stone wall.

"Have you tried the talisman?" Qi Lingshu asked.

"I tried it," Zhaoming said anxiously, "it didn't work."

Qi Lingshu tried again, but he really couldn't open the magic circle.Everyone stared wide-eyed, Zhaoming muttered, "Could it be a ghost?"

Fang Xinxiao shuddered, folded his arms and said, "Brother, don't scare me. I'm most afraid of ghosts. When I was young, my brothers and sisters told ghost stories, and I couldn't sleep at night."

A strange wind came from nowhere, and it was chilly and overcast. Qi Yin also felt that this place was a bit sinister.

Qi Lingshu frowned and said, "Don't scare yourself, maybe it's an illusion."

Zhaoming wanted to make a hole with his sword, but Yunzhi stopped him, shaking his head and saying no.The rock structure here is complete and integrated, if the hole didn't come out, the tomb passage would have collapsed first.After saying that, he suddenly remembered something, Yun Zhi hurriedly took out the phoenix-returning glazed mirror, polished it carefully, and the shadows of Meng Qing and Wen Juan appeared in it.

Meng Qinghe shook his head and smiled: "Nephew Yunzhi, I told you to turn on the mirror every half an hour. It has been more than two hours now, and you finally think of me."

"Uncle, you have a lot of adults, don't care about your nephew."

Yunzhi explained the situation, and Qi Lingshu added.Meng Qinghe pondered for a while, and asked to see Qi Shenwei's coffin.Everyone returned to the underground river, Meng Qinghe looked at it carefully for a while through the mirror, and his tone suddenly became heavy, "Children, this tomb cannot stay for long, you need to find a way out as soon as possible."
