[Old Nine Gates] I will call you when you come again

Although the Xu family is hidden from the world, it is still a hundred-year-old family after all. Every plant, every tree, every flower and every stone is arranged according to a certain arrangement.However, looking at the rockery and flowing water, it is pleasing to the eye alone, and the breeze blows, as if it is isolated from all the noise and dust outside, and it is peaceful.

The girl and Nan Zhu walked side by side, with delicate faces, in this backyard full of dead branches and leaves, they became the unique flower branches here, adding a bit of vitality to the courtyard.

Although Nan Zhu used his own luck to change the girl's fate against the sky, what Xiang Zixu fed Nan Zhu was a rare elixir that was rare in a century, and it didn't hurt her health, but her luck in the next year would be worse.

"Senior Sister! Senior Sister!" Before Nan Zhu could find a place to sit down, Nan Yu rushed over, fell in front of Nan Zhu, and said while grabbing her hem.

Pulling away Nan Yu's hand, Nan Zhu patted his clothes and said, "What's wrong?"

"Brother-in-law went to the grave with a fortune-teller and a woman named Er Yuehong," Nan Yu said anxiously, with a sad face, but he didn't know who he was worried about, "What should I do?"

"What are you afraid of?" Nan Zhu, who had already expected this, patted Nan Yu's shoulder and continued walking along the corridor, "If Zhang Qishan doesn't make trouble, something will happen. "

After following Nan Zhu for a while, the girl struggled for a while, but she still couldn't help asking: "The second master has also gone to the grave, will it be..."

Turning around suddenly, seeing the sad faces of the two of them, Nan Zhu felt quite a headache, rubbed his temples with his fingers, and said: "The blessings of the three people are endless, and nothing will happen. Moreover, as far as their abilities are concerned, if something happens , it is estimated to be difficult."

Hearing this, the two fell silent.The girl is embarrassed to ask any more, but Nan Yu knows Nan Zhu's character, if she asks any more, it's hard to guarantee that she won't get bored.

Sitting in the courtyard for a while, I really didn't want to see the girl and Nan Yu's grieving woman's expression, so Nan Zhu excused himself to be tired and went back to the house to rest. After Nan Zhu left, Nan Yu also left Xu's house and returned to Qi Tiezui's residence.

After returning to the house, Nan Zhu called his servants to inquire about Xiang Zixu's news, but was told that Xiang Zixu had already left Changsha yesterday, and he didn't know where he went.Apart from being useful at critical moments, this master is not reliable at all.Nan Zhu frowned, asked his servants to prepare a set of clothes for her, and planned to leave here.

"Mr. Xiang has already ordered the slave to bring the clothes to the girl if the girl wakes up. The girl will wait for a while, and the servant will go and get it." The servant quickly turned around and left the box quickly. After a while, he held a stack of clothes came back.

A black-bottomed red-trimmed suit and a black fur-trimmed overcoat. It seems that the person who knows Nanzhu best is Xiang Zixu.After changing his clothes, Nan Zhu asked Xu everyone for a horse, left Xu's house, and went to the mine.

After rushing for half an hour, Nan Zhu arrived at the mining town where he first came. This time, there was no one in the town, and it was dead silent.Nanzhu left the horse at the entrance of the village, crossed the town on foot, walked all the way down the track leading to the mine, and stopped suddenly when he went around the mine and reached a cave.

"Come out." Nan Zhu's voice turned cold instantly, and there was no expression of joy or anger on his face.

After the nearby grass and trees rustled, a figure slowly appeared.

"Master, Senior Sister... I just came here to have a look." Nan Yu touched his nose nervously and said.

Nan Zhu looked at Nan Yu firmly, and said: "Just to come and see, I don't know when Ah Yu likes someone and comes to the wilderness to see the scenery."

"Senior sister, I was wrong, I will definitely correct it." Nan Yu immediately stood up straight, looking at Nan Zhu with a sincere face, "This time, can you take me down?"

Stretching out his hand to touch the rock at the entrance of the cave, he twirled the ashes on his index and middle fingers with his thumb, put it under the pen and sniffed it.Walking to the entrance of the cave, he stamped his feet hard on the entrance of the cave.

"Give me something." Nan Zhutou ordered without replying.

Nan Yu hurriedly handed the things that Nan Zhu packed up a few days ago to Nan Zhu with both hands, and said with a flattering smile: "Senior sister, look, I can help you, so you can take me with you."

"Look, there are traces of people coming here, they must have gone down here," Nan Zhu took the package that Nan Yu had arrived, and with the tip of his toe, he touched the place where she had just stepped on it and looked carefully. , there were indeed shallow footprints there, "This is not far from the entrance of the mine, probably the entrance to the cemetery."

After finishing speaking, Nan Zhu walked in.Nan Yu stood where she was, without Nan Zhu's order, she did not dare to act rashly.

Nan Yu stood outside dejectedly, and suddenly heard Nan Zhu's voice from inside the cave: "Why are you staying there, why don't you keep up?"

"Yes, Senior Sister!" Nan Yu hurriedly followed after hearing this, fearing that Nan Zhu would leave her there, so she went down to the tomb by herself.

It's a troubled time now, Japan is eyeing China covetously, and it has already set its sights on this catacomb, there is no guarantee that there will be no Japanese hiding beside the mine, and she is not at ease leaving Nan Yu alone.Nan Zhu would rather deal with those monsters than deal with people.

This entrance is obviously different from the one she went with Zhang Qishan last time. This place has obviously not been mined, and the inside is naturally formed rocks. Places with little light seem increasingly mysterious.

Carefully walked through the potholes all the way, and finally came to the flat ground. Nan Zhu stood beside a stone pillar and reached out to touch the stone pillar. The tentacles were hard and there was a thin layer of dust.This place is very dry, unlike the last time, the more we entered, the more humid it became.

"Senior sister, how are you doing?" Nan Yu followed Nan Zhu closely, refusing to leave a step away, fearing that she would be left here by her senior sister.

Nan Zhu took out the bottle in the package, and as soon as he opened the cork, a faint red butterfly flew out, flew around Nan Zhu once, then retracted its wings and landed on Nan Zhu's hand.

"Xiaodie, take us to the road they walked." Nan Zhu didn't take Sinan, so naturally he couldn't find the place where Zhang Qishan and the others walked. The chance of catching up with Zhang Qishan was instantly reduced.

The faint red butterfly spread its wings and fluttered in Nan Zhu's hand for a while before flying to the front and bringing them to them.After walking with Xiaodie for about 5 minutes, Nan Zhu saw a rope tied on a stone pillar in this way. The place where the rope extended was a hole that could allow adult men to pass through smoothly.

Nan Zhu followed Xiaodie to the place, squatted by the entrance of the cave, took out a stone emitting dim light from his pocket, and threw it down.Hearing the sound of the stone falling to the ground, Nan Zhu pursed his lips. It seems that the hole is not very deep, so Zhang Qishan and the others did go down from here.

Xiaodie flew around the entrance of the cave a few times, and then flew straight down.

"Ayu, follow me, don't act rashly." Nan Zhu pulled the rope without saying a word, and after making sure it was secure, he went down along the rope.

This was the first time Nan Yu had been to this kind of place, and it was pitch black, so it was inevitable that he would feel a little palpitated, but he had already arrived here, if he went back, he would really get lost.After climbing for a while, Nan Zhu finally saw the scene below. The walls were surrounded by Buddha statues, probably suppressing something. In the middle, a man in black was lying there with his arms outstretched.

Very good, almost caught up with those people.

After jumping to the ground, Nan Zhu walked over and probed the man in black's nostrils. He was no longer breathing. Looking at the arrows on his body, he was probably fatal because of these arrows.Nan Yu jumped to the ground and walked over, squatting beside Nan Zhu, and asked suspiciously: "Senior sister, is there anything strange about this person?"

"Nothing strange." Nan Zhu rejected Nan Yu straight away, reached out and took off the black bag that the man in black was carrying on his back and threw it to Nan Yu. He also took the paper talisman and wrapped it around the man in black, " Sanqing Dao Dharma, reincarnation of life and death, peace of mind as soon as possible, don't cling to it."

Nan Zhu muttered something, and after the last word was spoken, the spell ignited instantly, and then turned into ashes and scattered on the man in black.

"Senior Sister?" Nan Yu was a little strange, holding a black bag and looking at Nan Zhu suspiciously, this man in black was not killed by those things, what ritual is he doing?

"Although this is a temple site, it is also an underground tomb. It is very dark. If it is not handled properly, it may cause trouble." Nan Yu dusted off the dust, "Look at what's in the bag."

Hearing Nan Zhu's words, Nan Yu quickly opened the black bag and began to look through it.After flipping around for a while, Nan Yu took out a flashlight from inside and said, "Senior sister, here is a flashlight that we can use. There are still a lot of things inside. Do you want to bring a bag? I think we will use these things. "

"Take it, you take that flashlight, I'll take this." Nan Zhu took the flashlight from the man in black, stood up straight, looked around, and finally saw the exit on the side.

"Let's go through there." Nan Zhu pointed to the dark exit and said, "However, since the people brought by Zhang Qishan accidentally died here, there should be some kind of trap, remember to be careful."

"Look at me, I'm here, any trap is just a small fight!" Nan Yu smiled, quite proud of this, and looked at Nan Zhu with a little more confidence, as if saying, look, bring It is also useful on me.

Nan Yu took a flashlight and took a picture of the exit. Under the light of the flashlight, a light that was almost invisible was refracted. Nan Yu raised his leg and walked over. The hand was cut by an invisible thin thread, and a little blood oozed out.

"Senior Sister, the person who set up the trap is so smart. If it's okay, I'll discuss with him how to set up the trap!" Nan Yu withdrew his hand, wiped off the blood beads on his hand indifferently, with an excited face, "This trap is nothing, senior sister, just follow my movements."

Putting away the flashlight, Nan Zhu responded, followed behind Nan Yu, carefully avoiding those traps.When standing at the exit, Nan Zhu looked back at the Buddha statues on the wall, and dropped a talisman, which happened to be pasted at the place where the thin lines intersected.

Xiaodie is still flying forward, presumably that group of people has already passed this road.The dark road is not as clean as above, and it is surrounded by white silk screens.This time, it was Nan Yu who followed Xiao Die to lead the way for Nan Zhu. When he turned his head and asked for praise in a smug manner, he stepped on a stone, and the other was unsteady. When the silk screen went up, Nan Zhu quickly stretched out his hand to pull her.

Who knew that the back of the silk screen was actually empty, Nan Yu fell in because of inertia, and Nan Zhu who was holding Nan Yu was also taken down.

"Cough, cough, senior sister, you, you get up first, I was crushed to death by you." Nan Yu coughed a few times under the pressure of Nan Zhu, and said with difficulty.

Nan Zhu propped himself up with one hand, and quickly stood up: "Ayu, are you all right?"

"It's okay, except that you are a bit heavy, senior sister, I didn't get thrown, the bottom is soft, someone cushioned it for me..." After speaking, Nan Yu froze for a moment, then quickly jumped to the side of Nan Zhu, hiding behind her and shivering Trembling, "Master, Senior Sister, what is on my ground?!"

Looking at Qi Tiezui who was almost crushed by the two of them, Nan Zhu couldn't help but said, "Look for yourself."

The flashlight was placed on Qi Tiezui's face, and Nan Zhu clearly saw Qi Tiezui's eyelashes trembling slightly, as if he was about to wake up.Nan Yu wanted to look at it but didn't dare to look at it. Finally, he cheered himself up and looked over quietly.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, it hurts so much, who hit me!" Qi Tiezui coughed, put his hand on his chest, sat up, looked up and saw Nan Yu and Nan Zhu standing there, I was shocked, "Senior, Nan Yu!"

Hearing Qi Tiezui's unbelievable tone, Nan Yu couldn't help but step forward and pat his chest, which made Qi Tiezui cough again.

"I said, if you have to go to the grave, can't you wait for the senior sister to come together? Do you know how dangerous this place is!" Nan Yu said angrily, Yan Yanchang was sincere, and his eyes were sincere.

After Qi Tiezui calmed down, he said: "Nonsense! What are you two little girls doing here, it is enough to have Buddha and Second Master here. This is not a game. It is very dangerous for you to do this."

"Dangerous?!" Nan Yu was reprimanded by Qi Tiezui for the first time, and raised his eyebrows, "Your martial arts are not as good as mine, and metaphysics is not as good as my senior sister. You should be the dangerous person! I don’t bother to talk to you, I don’t even bother to come here! It’s dark and scary here, who wants to come!”

"If you don't want to come, why do you still want to come? No matter what happens later, just stay there honestly when you get to a safe place. When Buddha and I come back, I will take you up, and then do the math when you go back." This account." Qi Tiezui didn't bother to argue with Nan Yu, he looked around and began to study how to get out.

Qi Tiezui's words were not very pleasant, and his tone was not good, but for no reason, Nan Yu just felt happy in his heart. A gust of cold wind blew by, and Nan Yu came back to his senses. She just felt that Qi Tiezui scolded her very happy?Nan Yu trembled. Could it be that she was frightened and stupid?

This place seems to be a middle hall, connecting two places, one is the place where they just came in, and the other is the direction leading to the unknown.

Qi Tiezui walked to the dark entrance to have a look, turned around and came back, and said to Nan Zhu: "I just got separated from the Buddha, and I may not be able to catch up with the Buddha now, I don't think there is any danger in that direction, how about Let's go there first, maybe we can meet Buddha and the others somewhere."

Walking in from the entrance, the three people discovered that this turned out to be a spiral downward mine tunnel. There was a bottomless black hole beside the mine tunnel. At a glance, the darkness could almost swallow people's hearts.There are no handrails on the side of the mine, and it looks as if one can fall into the bottomless darkness if one is not careful, which is extremely terrifying.

Nan Yu was most afraid of heights since she was a child, no matter how much Xiang Zixu trained her, she couldn't come back. Now seeing such a high place again, the two struggled, and she almost fell to the ground.

"Senior sister, I don't think there are any passages down here. Brother-in-law and the others are unlikely to appear below. Why don't we wait here for a while, if we can't wait for brother-in-law, we can go back the same way." Nan Yu Tightly holding Nan Zhu's hand, her voice trembling, "Maybe my brother-in-law will come back to look for him when he finds out that the fortune teller is gone."

Nan Zhu glanced at the mine tunnel, then at Nan Yu, and held her arm with his backhand: "I'm in front of you, and Qi Tiezui is behind you. We'll stick to the cave wall and everything will be fine. The danger here is uncertain." , It’s better to go down and explore the way.”

"Senior sister, I, I, I really don't want to go down." Nan Yu was about to cry, his voice was crying, and he refused to go down no matter what.

In the end, Nan Zhu sighed and said, "Then let's wait here. If no one comes looking for you within an hour, we will go back the same way."

"Okay, okay, that's a good idea!" Nan Yu repeatedly applauded, almost applauding.

The three of them withdrew from the entrance of the mine, returned to the original dark cave, and sat on the ground.

"Senior sister, just now I saw that you took out the talisman. Didn't you come here empty-handed? Why do you have the talisman?" Nan Yu's heart sank, and now he was in the mood to talk to Nan Zhu about something else.

Nan Zhu rubbed his sore neck, and said, "There is still a dark layer inside the baggage you are carrying."

"Senior Sister, you are really thoughtful." Nan Yu quickly flattered her, smiled, and took off the bag on her back, "Senior Sister, there is food in it, are you hungry, do you want some?"

"No need, save it for a while." Nan Zhu shook her head, she is not hungry yet, it's useless to eat, it's better to save it for later.
