[Old Nine Gates] Homecoming

Zhang Qishan turned his head and smiled at Yu Manli, but before he could say "Why don't I remember", the fireworks exploded in the sky, and Yu Manli disappeared in front of him.

Sweat dripped from Zhang Qishan's body: "Yu Manli!"

After the fireworks fell, Yu Manli reappeared. She tilted her head, feeling disgusted and amused: "Why are you so loud?"

Zhang Qishan heaved a sigh of relief, and then an unknown fire rose in his heart: "Yu Manli, who are you? Why do you make people so worried!"

Yu Manli was about to say "I want to know who I am too", when she heard the sound of a dark dart piercing through the fireworks that had just arrived and coming straight towards them.

Yu Manli turned sideways suddenly, and the black dark dart whizzed past the coat Buddha gave her.A cut was made at the hem of the coat.

The first dart missed, and the following darts followed without a break.

Yu Manli ran a few steps, rolled on the ground when she was close to the edge of the well, jumped to the back of the well, wedged the silver nails with gold nails, pulled the rope out of the well, and then swung the rope, Rolled down all the dark darts around.

Zhang Qishan was also instantly alert.He followed behind Yu Manli, rolled forward and hid behind the well, took out a pistol from his arms, and pointed in the direction of the dark dart.

But in the dark, there was no one at all.

Zhang Qishan wasn't scared at all, just a little surprised.His eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people, and he can see 100 meters away even in the dark.Let alone 100 meters, there is no one within about 200 meters.

Who in the world can shoot a dart over 200 meters at such a fast speed?

Looking at the dark darts again, it doesn't seem like they were shot from 200 meters away, but more like the person who threw the darts appeared out of thin air and stood not far from them.

Zhang Qishan asked: "Have you met?"

Yu Manli held the gold nail in her left hand, and wrapped the rope into a whip with her right hand: "The first time."

As soon as the words fell, a "general" in armor suddenly jumped out of the well.He was fully armed, only his neck was exposed, and he was holding a long knife, and he slashed at Manli's waist involuntarily.

Yu Manli retracted her hands and leaned back, almost touching the ground, avoiding the blade.Seeing this, the general turned the blade, and the blade cut straight down towards Yu Manli.

Yu Manli put her right hand on the ground, the knife edge was too close, and she could hardly move.In the midst of this flash, Zhang Qishan raised his pistol and aimed at the only throat of the general that was not covered by the armor.But a "bang" shot was fired, and the fireworks in the sky exploded. Seeing that the bullet was about to hit the general, the general disappeared.

Yu Manli hurriedly got up from the ground and stood back to back with Zhang Qishan.

Zhang Qishan looked around vigilantly: "Are you okay?"

Yu Manli stared at the well: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Qi Tiezui was sitting under the window, and he arranged a set of black and white chess pieces in different formations.

When he was depressed, he would calculate a few hexagrams and arrange formations to calm his mind.

Go pieces have been transformed and staggered several times, and the black pieces that were originally surrounded by white pieces are finally independent of the white pieces.Qi Tiezui's eyebrows twitched into a capital "excuseme": "Trip da da da, how come there is a zongzi running out? And running to my side?"

Just as I was panicking, I suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Fortune-teller!"

Qi Tiezui shuddered, and looked out of the window, and saw Zhang Qishan and Yu Manli running towards this side.

Qi Tiezui swallowed and spit: "Stumble da da da, Buddha is a rice dumpling?" Excuse me × 2! !

Zhang Qishan had already stepped into the shop, before the gun in his hand could be holstered.

Qi Tiezui almost didn't hold his head: "Hey Buddha, you are really going to kill me?! I'm wrong, can't it be okay!" He raised three fingers and swore in a dignified way, "I promise to the organization, in the future I'm not talking nonsense anymore."

It sounds like it's true.

Zhang Qishan frowned: "What are you muttering about!" He walked around, pulled Yu Manli to sit on the stool, and said to Tie Zui, "Think about it quickly, is there any way to get to the black corpse coffin array. We suspect that something from the black corpse coffin came out."

"Could it be zongzi?" Qi Tiezui touched the tip of his nose, looked at Go, "I did a calculation just now, and a zongzi ran out."

Zhang Qishan thought for a while: "If that's the case, then it's all right."

"But it's not right," Qi Tiezui watched as the smoke rose straight from the incense burner on the cabinet behind the front desk, "it's not the zongzi in the coffin of the black corpse."

Zhang Qishan asked: "Why?"

Qi Tiezui couldn't speak.

The Qi family has an ancestral incense burner, which is a token of communication between Yin and Yang.Everyone knows that the incense burner is a sacrificial vessel used for worship and ancestral temple sacrifices. In fact, few people know that the incense burner is actually the vital gate for the communication between the three worlds.The incense burner that has been "lit" in the three realms can transmit information through the dark layer below.

The censer handed down by the Qi family once stayed in the yin and yang worlds, so it can convey the information of the yin and yang worlds.

In order to protect the black corpse coffin, the ancestors of the Qi family set up an array in the dark layer of the ancestral incense burner. Whenever there is any disturbance in the black corpse coffin array, the incense in the incense burner will automatically go out.

But now, the incense is burning well - the part that was burnt to gray quietly broke off, and the red sparks flickered slightly.

Another point is that he has no idea what the principle of this array is.

The black corpse coffin array is one of the three major arrays of tombs. Apart from the Qi family, there are also the entire lower three sects guarding this array, as well as the "coffin guards" who only know its existence but do not know who it is.Everyone here holds part of the secrets of this tomb, and no one knows everything.The Qi family didn't know the location of the black corpse coffin array.So how the ancestors of the Qi family formed this formation, and how reliable this formation is, he has no idea at all.He has studied it for five years, but he still has no clue.

It is not enough to be humane, and it cannot be humane.

In the end, Qi Tiezui pushed his glasses and pretended to be deep: "This is our Qi family's secret." It looked a bit cheap like that.

Zhang Qishan shook his head helplessly - he only talked loudly to the fortune teller, if he really wanted to beat him - then he must beat the fortune teller to his death.Besides, if the fortune teller was really disabled, wouldn't he waste half his life to save him back then?

-

After midnight, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

Yu Manli tossed and turned, but couldn't sleep at all.When I got up to drink water several times, my movements were very light and small.Only one time in the middle, she accidentally kicked a chair on the first floor, and the ear-piercing sound startled her.When I came up again, I leaned on the door and listened. I didn't hear any movement from the next door, so I entered the house with peace of mind.

After a while, I wanted to go downstairs to drink water again.

Opening the door, Zhang Qishan was standing at the door with folded arms, showing a standard smile with one corner of his mouth raised.

Generally speaking, this kind of look means that there is an ulterior motive.So she wrapped her clothes tightly and looked at Zhang Qishan warily: "What do you want to do?"

Zhang Qishan said, "Your fox tail is exposed."

Yu Manli's eyelids twitched slightly. She did hide a point. She didn't tell Buddha the secret about the "guard" and the location of the black corpse coffin that the voice told her.

Yu Manli returned to the cold alert state again: "But I'm not a fox."

Zhang Qishan shook his head lightly, the smile on the corner of his mouth didn't disappear: "I mean, your weakness has been exposed."

"What weakness?"

Zhang Qishan raised the wine bottle in his hand: "Just like me, I like to get up in the middle of the night to find a drink." Buddha tilted his head, "Go, let's go to the roof to blow some air."

Yu Manli hesitated for a moment, and looked at Zhang Qishan half expectantly and half sadly: "You know I will definitely go with you? I'm most afraid of the cold."

Zhang Qishan stuffed the wine bottle into Yu Manli's hand, then took off the windbreaker and put it on Yu Manli: "How about this?"

Seeing that he was still wearing one, Yu Manli couldn't help laughing.After a pause, he returned the cork to Zhang Qishan, and stretched his hands into his sleeves: "Okay, let's go, anyway, I really can't sleep. But Lord Buddha, you have so many clothes, you have more clothes than a girl like me." There are many clothes."

Zhang Qishan turned around and said: "Well, there are quite a lot. But it's all thanks to the 'adjutant'. It seems that the assistant he found is not bad."

The author has something to say: Lord Buddha, I tell you that you are going to be single, do you know that, you should say "next time I will take you to buy" you know! !Learn quickly! !
