Chapter 272 Peer
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, when Wu Mian and two monsters woke up, they still stared at Gui Bugui, guarding six pictures of the graves. After a night of his mind, he still couldn't see where Yan Hui's real grave should be.
After seeing Wu Mian wake up, Gui Bugui smiled bitterly and said, "The six graves are all real... I calculated six times in one night and came out six results. It was not biased that all six graves were turned over, as if there were six one-like swallows. I can't understand them either."
When Wu Mian got up, he saw that the desk in front of Gui Bugui was covered with paper after calculation. The old guy leaned on the back of the chair tiredly, looking at Wu Mian and continued, "Originally, I thought this was Yan Hui's cleverness, and there were a circle of doubtful tombs around his grave. It was not until dawn that my hometown finally understood that the six were formal tombs. This Yan Hui seemed to have other unknown things... It seemed that there was no other way except for all the six graves to go in."
When Gui Bugui was talking, Wu Mian picked up the old guy's calculation results and read it. After reading a few pictures, he said to him: "Old guy, Yan Hui was a alchemist from the Shang Dynasty. Do you use the alchemy of the Warring States Period to calculate?"
"Yan Hui was a alchemist from the Shang Dynasty, but the other graves were not built during the Shang Dynasty." Gui Bugui smiled and found the paper he had drawn out at the first six graves. After handing it to Wu Mian, he pointed to the six graves and arranged the hungry figures and said: "Do you look like the Liuhe Forbidden Array created by Yan Aihou? I thought it was also the second midnight. At first I thought it was a coincidence, but I looked at it a few more times and it was almost the same. The position of Liuhe seemed to have been measured with a ruler."
After taking a look at the distribution map of the six tombs, Wu Mian continued to say, "It cannot be the Liuhe Formation. That forbidden formation is OK to seal the plague seedlings. Moreover, the Liuhe Formation cannot last for so many years, and it will collapse in a few days at most."
"This is also the old man's headache." Gui Bugui smiled bitterly again, and then he continued: "It seems that it will be impossible not to go down in person. Silly boy, ginseng, you two should not follow us this time. Just stay here and wait for us. If we don't come up after a long time, you will go find the four brothers Jing Ran and let them check our life and death... "
"You said so, are you embarrassed to not go down with me?" Before Gui Bugui finished speaking, Bai Wuqiu had already interrupted him. After pausing for a moment, Erlangzi continued, "If there is really any danger below, should we save you or die together, I have to consider it."
I haven't heard that this stupid boy is going to die with him for a while. The old guy smiled helplessly and then said again: "It's not impossible for you two to follow, but I can't explain what the old man is below this time. You two must follow us closely and don't act rashly."
After explaining the two monsters, the old guy then accompanied them to have breakfast in the inn. While having dinner, Gui Bugui asked the inn owner if there were any legends, myths and stories on Xiangyun Mountain.
The inn owner thought that these strange people were going to visit Xiangyun Mountain. Don’t look at these people, but they didn’t feel sorry for spending money. In view of them being the great dealers, the inn owner said with a smile: “Master, are you going to Xiangyun Mountain? Then I have to advise you. Don’t listen to the name of Xiangyun Mountain, but there is nothing fun. If you listen to me, I will point you to a fun place. If you go out to the west gate, you can’t walk five miles. It is said that the place where Taishang Laojun refines an alchemy, called Xianglu Mountain…”
"Old man, I asked Xiangyun Mountain, boss, you said Xianglu Mountain is really interesting." After Gui Bugui smiled, he took out a golden bean and handed it to the inn owner, and then continued, "Old man, I just want to go to Xiangyun Mountain, and I will talk about it elsewhere later."
The inn owner smiled so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth. He followed the old man's words: "Yes, I wanted to twist it, but there was nothing fun about this Xiangyun Mountain. In a few years, a few people would die at the foot of the mountain, and we locals walked around from afar. The old generation said that in the early years, there was a man-eating ghost buried under the mountain, so people often died there from time to time. There was another strange thing. When I was a child, we had an earthquake here. The entire Nanshan County town was shaken by an earthquake. When Xiangyun Mountain was not moving, everyone was afraid of the earthquake and didn't care that Xiangyun Mountain was an ominous place. Everyone went to the mountain to take refuge, but no abnormal things happened. The Xianglu Mountain I just said was shocked and trembled, but this Xiangyun Mountain was nothing."
"There is another thing." Gui Bugui smiled and continued, "Then I'll ask you again. Didn't you say that you locals have to take a detour when you see Xiangyun Mountain? So who are those who die at the foot of the mountain at any time?"
"I heard from the people in the yamen that they were all tomb robbers, and they all carried some tomb-stealing and digging houses. But before they could do anything, they all died one by one. We locals all said that they were killed by the evil ghosts below." When they said this, the inn owner suddenly thought of something. After pausing for a moment, he continued, "I heard from the old people that when Huang Chao was in trouble in the early years, Huang Chao also heard that there were treasures under the ground and sent 500 soldiers to rob them. As a result, in one night, all the five hundred people died in the tent at the foot of the mountain. Five hundred people were left, and none of them were left. Listen to me, it would be better if you don't go to Xiangyun Mountain."
"I just asked for it, but I had no plans to go." After listening to the boss's words, Gui Bugui praised him for a few more golden beans. After watching the boss leave happily, the old man said to Wu Mian, who had already had breakfast: "Did you hear it? This Xiangyun Mountain is really not simple. It seems that I have to make some preparations too..."
After Wu Mian and the two monsters had enough food and drink, Gui Bugui took them out of the inn. When they bought two big roosters in the market in the city, and then a few of them were strolling to buy something more, the old guy suddenly smiled and whispered to Wu Mian: "I'm here to go with you. Have you seen those people in black clothes? They are all here to rob the tomb..."
At this time, Wu Mian had already seen the men in black who Gui Bugui mentioned. They had just walked out of a shop in Nanshantang. The few of them were wearing short-shots, carrying kids and other household items. One of them was holding a big black dog in his hand and carrying a large bird cage. There were seven or eight chirping sparrows inside.
In addition to these people, there was a gorgeous strong man who sent them out of the shop. When he said goodbye to the gate, the man was still kind to a few men in black: "Then I'll wait in Zali. If you need anything else, send someone to say. There is nothing in Nanshan County that our Nanshan Hall can't do."
Nanshantang is used to being rampant here, and they never expected anyone to overhear their conversation. At that moment, the man in black, who led the lead, also said politely, and then said: "Shopkeeper Wei, we have received the deposit, and you can wait for us to deliver the goods. However, once our affairs alarm the yamen, you can settle it for our brothers."
The shopkeeper Wei laughed and said, "Don't worry, Nanshan County's surname is Fu, but the court does not listen to it here and only recognizes Nanshan Hall. You have grown up brightly, and if something happens, we will naturally be with us Nanshan Hall."
