Tomb

Chapter 10

"My mother and I meant to let you go to the police academy. I originally hoped that you would join the army to train for a few years, but you are old now, and the army also has age restrictions. If you go there now, I'm afraid it will not be good for your rank. fight for."

Gu Mu came back too late last night, his family had already gone to bed, so he went straight into the house without making a sound, but when he got up in the morning, he was caught and dragged out to discuss the students' affairs. There are only a few days left, and the reaction at home is considered normal. Even the school chosen for him, Gu Mu felt that it was expected.

"Xiao Mu, what do you mean?" Mother Gu sat beside her and asked softly as she took Gu Mu's hand.

Gu Mu looked at his father. Although he had been away from home for several years, he still knew his father's temper very well. Looking at his serious expression now, there was no intention of discussing with him at all. It was basically a decision.

"Have you already signed up?" Gu Mu asked, seeing his father nod his head later, he knew that his guess was indeed right.

"It's already done, and school will start next week." After finishing speaking, Gu's father took out the admission notice from under the coffee table.

Gu's mother saw that her son's expression was not right, so she quickly gave Gu's father a warning look, and sat next to her son, "Xiao Mu, do you have your own ideas?"

"Well, I want to go to Liang Bin's school." Gu Mu didn't hide it, he had indeed promised Liang Bin that way at the time, and he had no interest in joining the army since he was a child.

"Go to that school?" Before Gu's mother could speak, Gu's father was already dissatisfied, "Did that kid Liang Bin tell you something again? You've been fooling around with him these days, so you know what he's doing now, right?"

"Old Gu, what are you talking to your son?" Gu's mother gave her husband a dissatisfied look, and then said to Gu Mu, "Don't take your father's words to heart, Liang Bin is a pretty good kid, but his school It’s not as good as the one we chose for you.”

"Mom." Gu Mu held his mother's hand. Although he was over 50 years old, the years did not leave too many marks on that face. interest."

Gu Ma nodded, "Actually, what your father meant was to join forces with the army, and it will be easy to transfer at that time. If you are really not interested, we will not force you, but professionally, you should think about it again."

The words are already very tactful, and Gu Mu also knows that this is the biggest concession the family has made to him. After all, in his family’s situation, the family members don’t like those who dig graves, and think it’s immoral. It sounds like archaeology, but in fact it is not fundamentally different from Daodou's.

"Gu Mu, you haven't been back for a long time. Don't delay the future just because you are fresh for a while. The most important thing to be a man is to be ambitious." Gu's father sighed, and his tone softened a lot. Now that you and your mother are gone, you have to rely on yourself, and no one can help you at that time."

"I see, I'll think about it again." Gu Mu nodded, "I'll go upstairs first, and when Liang Bin comes, let him come upstairs to find me."

"Go." Gu's mother patted him on the back, and Gu Mu strode upstairs, feeling a little bit more psychologically dissatisfied. He hated his father's professionalism very much. , I heard his father say that his brother said the most, that he must be ambitious. Now that his brother has become a cadre in the army, this sentence has stayed with him.

He knew that his brother didn't really like the army, but due to his father's pressure, he had to follow the path he designed. Gu Mu was not reconciled. He didn't want to do this. .

Lying on the bed depressed, feeling as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest, he couldn't breathe, and stayed with his eyes closed for a long time before finally dispelling the unhappiness.

After that, he took out the engraved treasure box from his backpack. Although it was broken, he thought that if it was glued together, it would not affect the appearance too much, at least he could keep it for himself.

Unfolding the brocade silk, there are not many words on it, but a few places are outlined with circles, but it can be seen that there must be something hidden in these places.

"Cough cough."

Hearing the sound, Gu Mu reflexively hid the things in his hands behind his back, and then turned his head to see his grandfather, "Grandpa." He also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, I know you're back, so I'll come over and have a look." The old man walked in with his hands behind his back, and Gu Mu quickly stood up, helping him to sit on his bed.Compared with his sofa, his bed is much softer. "Do you all think I'm an old man who can't even walk steadily? It's shameful to have to help me wherever I go."

Hearing the voice of complaining, Gu Mu smiled and shook his head, "No, Grandpa is always strong."

"As long as you can talk, I heard that they have settled your school affairs two days ago. What do you think?"

"I don't want to go. My mother promised me to go to Liang Bin's school, but I have to choose another major." Liang Bin replied.

The old man sighed, "Your father just likes to impose his ideas on you. What grandpa means is that you can do whatever you like. Your brother is already like that. You can relax a little bit. It's really nothing."

"Grandpa...you really think so?" Gu Mu was a little surprised, he didn't expect his grandpa to support him.

"The road is what you have to walk, and you have to bear it yourself in the future."

"Well, I understand." Gu Mu nodded again and again, but the smile was already on his lips. His father was most afraid of his grandpa. His grandma died early. His father was raised by his father alone since he was a child, so the old man said If it is, it is no different from the imperial decree in their house. With his grandfather protecting him, what else is he afraid of.

"Good boy." The old man stood up and prepared to go out.

Gu Mu hurriedly stopped him, "Grandpa, wait a moment."

"Huh? Anything else?"

Gu Mu went to close the door, and when he came back, he took out the brocade silk and the glyph treasure box and showed it to his grandfather.When the old man saw these two things, he immediately snatched them into his hands, opened his eyes wide and looked back and forth several times, "Son, where did you get these things?"

Gu Mu didn't hide anything, so he told the story of him accidentally falling into the Qin Dynasty's tomb after arriving in Baotou. The old man listened carefully, and then looked at the things in his hand, "This box is not an ordinary thing."

"It's a carved treasure box." Gu Mu said.

The old man shook his head, "I'm talking about the things inside, do you see this?" He picked the bottom of the box with his fingers, "This is a symbol, there must be something unusual in it, but the imprint is too shallow, it shouldn't be too big usefulness.

I heard from my senior brother that there are many kinds of talismans, painted on the bottom of the box, most of the ones on the bottom of the box are for the soul-suppressing, and it is really rare to draw them in this small box. Under the coffin, prevent fraudulent corpses. After speaking, he pointed to the lid of the box, "This is Pixiu, which is used to ward off evil spirits." "

Gu Mu listened to his grandfather talking about these things. At first he also felt that it was a bit strange to draw amulets under the box, but after thinking about the thing on Liang Bin, he felt nothing strange, but he couldn't figure out what the intention of the owner of the box was. , since he intends to keep the soul of the other party, why should he suppress it, and the recessed Pixiu on the box is probably to remind the person who got it that the box is not clean, it is just a Pixiu, how many people know it.

"Son, did any strange things happen after this box was opened?" The old man looked at Gu Mu solemnly, and Gu Mu nodded before he wanted to tell the story of Liang Bin, to see if his grandfather could think of a way, when he heard the old man Gu Mu guessed that it was Liang Bin coming from the sound of the building. Liang Bin walked very characteristically, especially when going up and down stairs, he liked to jump vigorously.

"Gu Mu, I'm here." Liang Bin shouted from outside the door, banging on the door vigorously.

Gu Mu stood up and went to open the door. When Liang Bin saw the door opened, he immediately hooked Gu Mu's neck, "I saw a text message from Li Zi early in the morning, saying that he has arrived at his friend's place. Li Liang's condition is not good. It's bad, let's rest easy."

"Well, my grandfather." Gu Mu felt relieved now, and reminded Liang Bin that he was not the only one in the room.

Sure enough, when Liang Bin saw the old man, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, winked at Gu Mu a few times, then turned his head, with a big smile on his face, and moved to sit next to the old man, "Grandpa, you're here too, Gu Mu If this kid Mu makes you angry, just tell me, and I will help you out."

Gu Mu was stunned, this kid is sweet-talking, and his ability to glib is getting stronger and stronger, but this trick is also very popular with the elders, no, the old man's eyes are all squinted.

"Good boy, you're tired after going out, don't you have a lot of rest?" the old man asked.

Liang Bin looked at Gu Mu, probably not guessing that Gu Mu would tell his grandfather about it, "It's, it's okay."

"Second brother, you just said that something strange happened, what is it?" The old man turned the topic back, Gu Mu was a little hesitant, he wanted to say it in front of Liang Bin, fearing that he would not believe it, especially now that Liang Bin seems to be Really nothing.

But thinking about what happened to him yesterday, "I suspect that the contents of the box are still in Liang Bin's body."

"What? What do you mean?" Liang Bin stared at him with wide eyes.

"Go ahead." The old man patted Liang Bin's hand to make him quieter.

"You fell unconscious after coming down from the robbery cave that day, do you have no memory of what happened before you woke up?" Gu Mu asked.

Liang Bin didn't know which period of time he was talking about, "What do you mean? What time is it before you wake up?"

"Before you entered Li Liang's house that day, do you still remember?"

"Didn't you say that I was knocked unconscious? I must have been in a coma before that, how could I still remember?"

"During that time, you were still awake, but that person was no longer you, it was something that came out of the box, on your body, and dominated your body." Gu Mu explained, and then handed the box to Liang Bin look.

Liang Bin has never seen this box. This is the first time he has seen it since he came out of the tomb, and it has been broken. Liang Bin is bored by Gu Mu. He believes that Gu Mu will not lie to him, but He really didn't believe there was anything else in his body, and if that thing could dominate his body at will, what would he do?

"Who is it? What did it say? Why is it on me?" Liang Bin's face became very ugly, and he exerted more strength in the hand holding the box.

"I don't know either. He probably doesn't even remember who he is. I asked him, but he disappeared before I knew the answer." Gu Mu said and looked at the old man, "Grandpa, what do you think?"

The old man shook his head, "What you said is too general, I have never been there, and I don't know the environment you come into contact with, these are very important." The old man was silent for a while, and then said, "Draw the route in your memory , I want to see what kind of specifications this tomb is."

Liang Bin is a little flustered now, more restless, he can't help anything now, Gu Mu just relies on what he still remembers, and draws out little by little, but he can't remember many details , especially in the tomb, there is no sense of direction at all.

The old man didn't stare at them either. He saw that Gu Mu began to concentrate on thinking and then left. Liang Bin walked around the room repeatedly, holding the box in his hand and still refused to let go. The more confused I felt, the more I wanted to find Gu Mu to vomit my bitterness, but found that Gu Mu was extremely quiet, and he was not easy to disturb, so he could only wander around there by himself.

What impressed Gu Mu the most about the tomb was the tomb, the tomb where the ice coffin was found, the mechanism of the soldiers, the burial pit under the ice coffin, and even the trap where the scorpion fell. I am not sure when the hole was dug. Now that I think about it, the hole leads to the bottom, and maybe there is a secret about the identity of the corpse hidden in it.

"That's not right."

Gu Mu came back to his senses and saw Liang Bin pointing to a detail in the picture, which was the second hall they found, "This is wrong, I remember that the direction of the passage was to the left, not to the right."

"Left?" Gu Mu frowned.

"Although it doesn't feel very obvious, there were only three of us at that time. I remember very clearly that it was to the left, and then it was like this." Liang Bin said, making changes to the original picture.

Gu Mu looked at the blueprint, and it was indeed a lot more comfortable after changing it like this, but...he really felt to the right at the time, why did Liang Bin feel that it was to the left?

"And here, isn't it right?" Liang Bin pointed out another place, which was the tomb they entered. "When will there be more beads in it? What is this thing?"

Gu Mu looked at the place Liang Bin was pointing at with some puzzlement. The first place mentioned the night pearl on the ice coffin, and the second place mentioned the armor placed on the right corner of the wall.

These two places should be the least questionable. When they entered the tomb, the first thing they saw besides the high platform was the armor, because that armor was really beautiful. Besides, the Ye Mingzhu, Gu Mu took it down at that time At that time, Liang Bin was also at the side, and he could see clearly. Why did he ask such a question?

"I said, didn't you lose your memory again? Why did you forget..."

"It should be like this here." Liang Bin said softly, took out another piece of paper, and drew a completely different tomb on it. The ice coffin in the center also became a huge animal skin shop. The resulting bed collapsed, the armor was a screen, and the servants in the upper left corner were four mighty guards.

Gu Mu looked at the picture in shock. If he guessed correctly, it was a restored picture of the tomb, and it was thousands of years ago.

Gu Mu suddenly stood up and turned to look at Liang Bin. At this time, Liang Bin looked at the blueprint with obsession, and there was a faint smile on his mouth, but all this made Gu Mu feel creepy. This is definitely not Liang Bin. Bin, that man is back!
