Yu Huaiyao never thought that his cousin would die unexpectedly.His body was found in an abandoned factory at around midnight.

He was found at the scene with three other bodies, two men and one woman, who also died at zero o'clock.All four died in such a miserable state that their human shapes were barely recognizable.

It was the corpse he went to claim, and he didn't dare to let his mother see it.

But no matter how many investigations were done, the cause of death could not be found.

The police once came to investigate whether the deceased had any abnormalities before his death. Everyone said that Yu Huan had no abnormalities during his lifetime.In the end, the matter could only end in suicide.

Yu Huaiyao closed his eyes, remembering what his cousin had said.

"Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"

He didn't believe it before, but now...

Yu Huaiyao stared at the series of information he found on the screen and sighed deeply.

ghost……

The lights of the research institute flickered a few times suddenly, Yu Huaiyao stood up, squeezed the space between his brows, and prepared to go home.

He didn't see that, on a restored screen with pictures of ladies behind him, one of the maids suddenly smiled and stared at Yu Huaiyao sideways.

The latter turned off the light, turned and left.

Yu Huaiyao received a call the next day from a middle-aged policeman named An Ru. Yu Huaiyao was very impressed with him because he heard that the other party's son was missing, and he couldn't find it after searching for a long time. turn up.

And what Anru told him surprised him even more.

"Officer An, you mean that there might have been a fifth person present on the night of their deaths?" Holding the phone, Yu Huaiyao felt that this was very important information, and he didn't realize that his breathing was also disordered for a moment.

On the other side of the phone, if Anru's image is seen by others, he will be shocked. In just over half a month, he has lost a lot of weight, his beard is unshaven, and his hair is messily stuffed into his hat. : "There's no need to call me a police officer. I've resigned. I investigated this matter myself. Although I'm not sure, I see that you are very caring. It's better to tell you."

Yu Huaiyao wanted to ask again, but the other party directly reported the location and time: "If you want to know, we can talk to you in person."

After speaking, the other side hung up the phone.

Anru turned his phone back to silent, and stared at a building in front of him without blinking.

According to the investigation of the private investigator invited by his wife, Xiao An had met this girl before.The girl's friend also died in the accident.

Lin Chu walked to the window and closed the curtains. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the man disguised as a sanitation worker hiding behind a tree.

She was being stalked again.

Thinking of this, a coldness flashed in Lin Chu's eyes.She pretended not to notice, closed the curtains, turned off the lights, and lay down on the sofa with her eyes closed.

Her home has changed drastically. In order to prevent anyone from sneaking in, Lin Chu put away all the notes on the wall and cleaned them thoroughly, so that she can no longer see the original appearance.

Only the photo of Yu Xianguang is still on the TV cabinet at home.

Lu Yanli pushed open the door, and the sight that greeted them surprised the four of them.

It's not so weird. On the contrary, not only there is no sea of ​​blood and corpses as they imagined, but the lights are brightly lit. Several staff members are lying on the sofa to rest. When they heard the door being pushed, they turned their heads and looked over. One of them asked in surprise: "What are you doing?" How did you come up? Sorry, this place is not open to tourists."

Instead, they didn't know how to answer, Yi Yun whispered, "They don't know?"

Indeed, no matter how they look, they look like normal people. The white noise of heavy snow and the sound of the fireplace is playing on the computer beside them, and the sound of the rain outside the window seems to be quieter, and they no longer have the posture of drowning them just now.

Wang Pengfei was also in doubt.

A staff member came over and found some wounds on their bodies, and couldn't help being vigilant: "What are you here for?"

Yi Yun was afraid of conflict, so he hurriedly said: "We are here to visit, but it's raining heavily and we can't leave for a while, and the electricity downstairs is cut off, so I want to come up and take a look."

The staff was skeptical, and they got together and whispered a few words before putting them in.

"It's raining heavily outside now, leave when the rain stops." A female staff member said, and she poured a cup of hot tea for everyone, "Come on, warm up."

Holding the paper cup in your hand, it feels slightly hot to the touch. The staff smiled gently and brought small blankets and pillows to keep them warm.

Logically speaking, their vigilance shouldn't be so low. Maybe it's the white noise played that made them gradually let go of their guards, or maybe it's the hot tea and snacks they brought. In short, sitting on the soft and warm sofa, watching those people Busy, it is difficult for them to think that each other is a ghost.

Lu Yanli sat alone on one side, neither drinking tea nor eating, just quietly watching the staff busy.

A cut was made on his face, extending from the corner of his eye to his jaw, as if a thin tear of blood flowed down.A staff member asked him if he wanted to deal with it, but he didn't answer.

I always feel...he overlooked something, why do these people look familiar?

After the staff took a break, they got up again, put on their coats, and continued to work.

Until now, they had no time to look at the surrounding environment.

No wonder ordinary tourists had to be allowed to enter. There were a lot of mummified corpses in the booths in the hall alone, and some unprocessed waxed wrecks were found further inside.Parents who bring their children to visit may scare the children to tears.

Seeing that the staff were getting along very well, Yi Yun couldn't help but move over and asked, "Have all the cultural relics unearthed recently been sent here?"

Those people were busy with the work at hand, and few of them paid attention to her.Only the person who poured her tea at the beginning said softly: "There are still many that have not been dug out."

"I want to ask, is there a Pisces jade pendant among the excavated cultural relics?"

The man didn't lift his head: "No."

Yi Yun was a little disappointed, and the other two also looked at each other, secretly troubled.

The task clearly stated that the jade pendant should be unearthed from the tomb. Although there was no specified time, who of them didn't know?The longer you stay in the mission world, the more dangerous situations you will encounter.

Wang Pengfei said: "Is there really none? There are so many things dug up, is it possible that you have forgotten? We just want to take a look."

Of course, he didn't think so in his heart. With the jade pendant, they could leave.

The staff simply ignored them and just fiddled with the things in their hands.

Yi Yun looked at it for a long time, at first he thought they were restoring cultural relics, but...they held all kinds of bones and looked at them for a long time, then put them down again, what exactly are they doing?

This time it was Jing Tao's turn to ask questions. When he asked the question, the researcher closest to the four put down the skull in his hand and stared straight at them with a pair of eyes.

"What's wrong?" Jing Tao's scalp was numb.

The staff suddenly laughed and nodded their heads: "After these things come out of the tomb, they still want to go back to the tomb."

What do you mean?

Jing Tao didn't ask any more questions, but his intuition made him shut up.Lu Yanli tentatively wanted to walk towards the door, but he encountered the same ghost hitting the wall as downstairs.

At this time, several staff members walked into Neijian again, and they came pushing a new corpse, and the small cart was covered with white cloth.

"It's work again." The staff smiled and lifted the white cloth.

Under the white cloth, lay one corpse after another that was almost drained of blood, skinny and boned, with protruding eyeballs, and the appearance of death was particularly miserable.But no matter how you looked at it, it looked like it had died not long ago. The skin was pale with a slight bluish tinge, not the shiny tan after waxing.

Two staff members placed one of the corpses in the display cabinet, reached out and groped for the head, and then seemed to have touched something, and took some tools from the side.

Yi Yun didn't know what they were going to do, so she took a closer look, her eyes widened suddenly, and the cold air rushed from her back to the top of her head.

This corpse...why does it look so familiar?

The staff turned the head of the corpse to the side, which was obviously a female corpse with a small mole behind the ear.Yi Yun remembered that Cao Yi also had the same mole at the same position behind her ear!

No wonder she thought the corpse looked familiar, it turned out...it was Cao Yi's corpse!

Yi Yun held back the scream that almost came to her mouth, and slowly backed away, but she bumped into a cold body, looked back, and a staff member asked with a smile, "Where are you going?"

At the same time, Jing Tao also noticed something was wrong.

He surrounded another staff member to watch, but he didn't know the owner of the corpse, so he didn't feel strange.

But... the staff member didn't wear gloves, and large dark purple spots began to appear on his outstretched bare hands.

Commonly known as corpse spots.

Jing Tao also backed away slowly, and the busy staff raised their heads at this moment and smiled: "Are you leaving?"

"It's still raining outside, please sit down."

"Stay."

The lightning flashed, and the thunder could almost pierce the eardrum.

The staff all put down their work at some point and just watched them quietly, showing weird smiles little by little, and their faces gradually rotted.

"Stay here..."

One mummy after another lying in the display cabinet gradually began to move, the joints made the sound of being overwhelmed, and they stood up from the cabinet unsteadily, and stepped out.

"Come on!"

A group of people ran to the door, but the door was closed at some point, and they could not escape. Facing the chasing mummy, they had to disperse and flee.

Another bolt of lightning struck, and thunder broke out loudly.

The bronze chime bells neatly arranged on one wall of the display cabinet were clanging and clanging, dense and noisy, with long echoes, which made people feel uncomfortable when they heard it.

Like downstairs, the most corpses were chasing Lu Yanli. He narrowly escaped the attack several times, but if this continues, let alone waiting for those people to complete their tasks, it will be difficult for him to survive.

After being overtaken again, Lu Yanli glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye, and stepped back step by step. He didn't expect that the curtain behind him was not a wall, but another small cubicle, which was neatly arranged. Several coffins.Caught off guard by his calf, Lu Yanli suddenly fell backwards and fell into the coffin.

Fortunately, he made a copy of himself in advance... As Lu Yanli thought about it, his vision went dark.

"Wake up, who are you? Why are you here?"

When I opened my eyes again, the scene in front of me was equally dark, with a few beams of flashlights shining back and forth, and in front of me were a few enlarged human faces, eyes full of concern and vigilance.

Seeing Lu Yanli open his eyes, the staff on the side breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to ask, "Why did you suddenly appear here?"

Lu Yanli didn't answer, but carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

Very dark, cold, damp, with an earthy smell in the nostrils.Miner's lamps are hung on the left and right ends, and two small paths extend out. There are many tools on them, which look familiar.

It is very similar to the internal structure of the tomb he saw in the forbidden area of ​​Shangxian Village. A small road divides the east and west, and a big hole is opened at the top.

The people in front of them were dusty and covered with a lot of dirt.

"Where is this?" Lu Yanli finally asked.

"You do not know?"

Lu Yanli had a vague guess in his heart, but he wasn't sure.He didn't answer, and the group looked at each other in blank dismay.

After a while, there was another cry in the distance—someone fell in again.Not knowing where it came from, Lu Yanli saw that his eyes suddenly became alert, and he looked in that direction.

Jing Tao followed, and soon, Yi Yun also entered this space. In the end, Wang Pengfei was also discovered by the team members.

They were actually teleported to the tomb being excavated together!

Lu Yanli was a little puzzled, and the three missionaries secretly guessed, did the mission send them to the Pisces Jade Pendant?Otherwise, they don't even know where the jade pendant is, and how to find it?

Now they have confirmed that the jade pendant must still be in the tomb. Although they haven't dug it out, they have a goal anyway, don't they?

"Aren't you here to steal things?" The team leader was still suspicious, looking them up and down.

"Really not, we don't know why we came here suddenly." Jing Tao bit to death his ignorant position, he was unwilling to leave when the team members said to send them out, and repeatedly assured that they could help and not make trouble.

In short, under the stalking of the four, they actually stayed and helped to excavate together.

Excavation of the burial has reached an advanced stage so far, with several main chambers about to be explored.The place where they landed is at the junction of the east and west tombs.

Looking at the direction the team was heading, it was obviously east.

Lu Yanli quietly followed the team.The team moved too slowly, and had to stop and wait from time to time so that they could brush off the heavy dust and record the words carved on the sides of the walls that had not yet seen the light of day.

The other three questers were getting impatient and wished they could start digging for treasures immediately.Lu Yanli was very patient.

He just needed information about the owner of this tomb.

With the pace of progress, the words revealed on the blue brick walls on both sides gradually disappeared.The slow progress of the members of the archaeological team just now is because they are trying to write down these words and try to translate them.

"It's really strange. This kind of writing has never existed in history... at least in our current records." The oldest middle-aged man in the archaeological team was thinking while recording, and the small book in hand was full of symbols.

Lu Yanli was walking beside him, his brows twitched.

Why can he write down this kind of words, but he can't?

"May I ask, do you have any thoughts on the translation of these words?" Lu Yanli wanted to know what was written on the wall.

The expert shook his head: "It's not that fast yet, I just figured out some patterns now." He pointed to the notebook with great interest and showed it to the other party, "Look, like this, the winding streamlines appear in several places. , what does it look like?"

"water?"

"Yes, I also guess it's a word of water, but the evidence is not enough now, so I need to go back and study it slowly." After finishing speaking, the expert sighed, "The characters and funerary objects of an unprecedented style, this It must be a great discovery in the archaeological world!"

While talking, they turned a corner, and the team members in front were overjoyed: "Team Cen, we found a mural here!"

"What?" The expert known as Team Cen rushed over at a brisk pace, and the others also rushed over.A team member is slowly cleaning off the dust accumulated on the wall with tools, so that the beautiful colors on the wall can be revealed little by little.

From the looks of it, this is still a long mural!The others were not idle, and they also took tools to prepare for work, but the archaeological team still had doubts about these four people, and they needed technology, so they didn't let them intervene.

Lu Yanli helped hold up the lamp for lighting. He stood on the other side of the corridor, focusing on analyzing the murals.

The style of the mural...is very similar to the treasure map in the headman's house of Shangxian Village and the mural in the central secret room of the Forbidden Area. It seems that it was painted by the same person.

However, the mural in front of him is not a picture of the Five Immortals, but records another story.

The image that was first scanned was a landscape map, and Lu Yanli couldn't see it clearly.Green mountains and green waters, luxuriant forests, there are many creatures in it.

After that, there is another landscape that looks very similar, but not quite the same.Comparing it carefully, it seems that the mountain in the previous painting has turned in a different direction.
