I didn't expect that King Zhao would enter the City of the Dead. This was really beyond my expectation.
But it is better than doing evil things in the world of the living.
Master Liu suddenly asked me, "Tianyi, let's not talk about the matter of King Zhao for now. What do you think about your master Jiang Jiuzhen?"
I understood what Master Liu meant. He wanted to ask me whether I should go to the City of the Dead to find my master.
Xiao Li slowly lifted her head from my shoulder. She also wanted to know my decision. But she was conflicted because she didn't want anything to happen to me, but she was also very worried about her grandfather Jiang Jiuzhen.
After a moment's thought, I said with a serious expression, "I have decided that I will go to the City of the Dead. I brought Xiao Li and Uncle Sun to the Tomb of King Zhao just to find my master Jiang Jiuzhen. Now I finally have some clues, I can't just give up like this."
"Although it is very dangerous in the City of the Dead, since my master is alive, I still hope to find him."
Unexpectedly, after hearing what I said, Master Liu suddenly laughed. He walked up to me, patted my shoulder, and said with a smile: "Yes, Tianyi, I was right about you. You are a great boy, and you are very upright."
"When I first saw you on the train, I thought you were extraordinary. Now it seems that your courage and thoughtfulness are beyond the reach of ordinary people. It's just that you have a girlfriend. Otherwise, I would definitely hand my daughter Xueqing over to you and let you be her boyfriend."
This makes me blush.
Xiao Li was standing aside and heard this, and immediately became unhappy.
She grabbed my hand and said to Liu Deshui unhappily, "Master Liu, don't make fun of our Tianyi. Brother Tianyi only likes me. Your daughter is so outstanding, you should find another handsome guy."
Liu Deshui was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
He didn't expect that Xiaoli took his joke seriously.
I was also amused by Xiaoli's appearance.
For a moment, the atmosphere inside the earth cave path became much more lively.
Seeing me grinning foolishly, Xiao Li stealthily reached out his hand to my waist and pinched it hard.
Damn, I don’t know if she grew up eating onions, but her hands are really strong. I guess my old waist was pinched purple.
After resting in the earth cave for more than ten minutes and recovering a little, the six of us started to look for the path towards the original entrance.
Unexpectedly, this time, after entering the tomb of King Zhao, two tomb robbers died and they also met Jiang Xiaoyang from the Jiang family.
Jiang Xiaoyang was frightened by the evil spirit Xiao Hei and became much more obedient.
After a short while, we found the hole we had used to enter.
The robber's hole was still the same, with a rope hanging from the hole's mouth like a long, thin snake. In the earthen room opposite, the skeleton was still there, not looking as scary as it did at the beginning, but just like a pile of dry firewood wrapped in rags, sticking out from side to side.
Standing at the entrance of the tunnel, Master Liu said to me, "Tianyi, after thinking about it, I still think I should go into the City of the Dead with you. I haven't been to that place yet, and I want to go in and take a look at what the place where those ghosts live is like."
When Master Liu said this, his face looked calm.
But I know he is worried that something bad will happen to me. He is a really good friend. He is worth making friends with.
He wanted to go, but I couldn't agree to let him go.
I said to Liu Deshui seriously, "Master Liu, I appreciate your kindness. I am very grateful that you can come with us to the Tomb of King Zhao this time. But I'd better go into the City of the Dead by myself. If I encounter danger, I can escape and hide by myself."
"Just now, Yin Ling Xiao Hei also said that the city of death in vain
The things above are not fictional, they are all real, so if I encounter a powerful ghost, it is still no problem for me to hide for a while."
"and----"
Having said that, I pulled Master Liu aside and whispered to him, "Besides, that Hong Qingzong is not a good person. He went out with Xiao Li and my uncle Sun, and I am worried."
"So Master Liu, thank you for your hard work. You should take them away from the tomb of King Zhao first. When the time comes, when I find my master Jiang Jiuzhen, I will definitely visit you."
Master Liu saw my determined look, thought for a moment, and then took off his cloth bag.
Putting the bag on me, Master Liu sighed and said, "Well, since you insist, I won't say anything. There are a few magic tools and talismans in this bag. Carry them with you. If you encounter a powerful ghost, they can be of some use."
I didn't refuse the gift from Master Liu and accepted it with a smile.
Master Liu first climbed out along the tunnel.
I went to Uncle Sun and Xiao Li. They were both ordinary people, so I couldn't take them to find Jiang Jiuzhen.
"Brother Tianyi, are you really going? Otherwise, you, you, don't go. I'm worried about you. What should I do if something really happens to you in the City of the Dead? I like you, you know. But now..."
Xiaoli is a crying girl. She can't help crying when she is a little emotional.
I reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, hugged her, and comforted her: "Xiao Li, don't worry about me doing what I want. I will definitely protect myself. I will also bring your grandfather, my master Jiang Jiuzhen, back safely."
Uncle Sun kept his head down, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
Seeing that I let go of Xiao Li, Uncle Sun raised his head, looked at me with heavy eyes, and said, "Tianyi, I have made up my mind. I also want to enter the City of the Dead. Take me in. I had a conflict with Xiao Li's grandfather at the beginning, and it was a big fight. Now I want to make up for my mistake."
"Although I, Sun Yaowen, am not a very good person, he is my father after all, so I still hope to do my best to help him."
I just opened my mouth and called out "Uncle Sun" to reject Sun Yaowen.
But Sun Yaowen slowly shook his head at me and said in a deep voice: "Tianyi, this is your uncle's decision. I hope you won't reject me. I haven't done anything great in my life. This time, I hope to take this step. On the one hand, it is to find my father, and on the other hand, it is to prove to my daughter Xiaoli that I am not an incompetent person."
When Sun Yaowen said these words, his emotions were very serious, and I couldn't bear to refuse.
Finally, after a short silence, I smiled and said to Uncle Sun: "Okay, since you want to go, then follow me. But once we enter the City of the Dead, you must follow my arrangements."
Sun Yaowen nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, no problem, Tianyi, you are a ghost-catching Taoist priest, I will listen to you."
Xiao Li stood by and looked at us, then bit her lip and said, "Dad, Brother Tianyi, I know I can't change your mind, but I hope you are all okay. Come back safely."
Sun Yaowen had tears in his eyes and his nose was twitching. He also hugged Xiaoli.
At the same time, he stuffed all the treasures he had obtained from the ear chamber of King Zhao's tomb into Xiaoli's arms.
When I saw Uncle Sun stuffing those treasures into Xiaoli's arms, I felt both angry and amused.
"Well, now is not the time to be sentimental. If we enter the City of the Dead earlier, maybe we can find my master earlier. Master Liu, they have already gone up through the tunnel. Xiao Li, you can go up too."
Xiaoli was still crying, but she listened to me.
Holding the rope with both hands, Xiao Li climbed up little by little.
very
Soon, Xiao Li was pulled by the people above and climbed out of the tunnel.
After Xiao Li climbed up, he was still shouting down from the tunnel entrance: "Dad, Brother Tianyi, you must come back alive. I will wait for you. Otherwise, I will not forgive you."
After hearing this, my nose felt sore.
But men don't shed tears easily, so at least I didn't cry.
Master Liu, Hong Qingzong, Jiang Xiaoyang, and Xiaoli all left the Tomb of King Zhao.
At this moment, Uncle Sun and I were the only ones left in King Zhao's Tomb.
I also put the troublemaker Duoduo into the soul collecting bucket.
I handed the flashlight to Uncle Sun, called the ghost Xiao Hei over, and said to him, "Let's go, Xiao Hei, we're going to the City of the Dead. You lead the way."
The ghost Xiao Hei seemed a little hesitant. He grinned and said uneasily, "Master, do you really want to go to the City of the Dead? Didn't I tell you just now that it's very dangerous there? You said you went in, what if, what if something happens, there will be no help. I think it's better not to go in."
This guy actually advised me not to go in.
I still don't understand what he's thinking, but he's clearly worried that he might get hurt.
I glared at the ghost Xiao Hei and said unhappily, "Stop talking nonsense and lead the way! If you keep talking nonsense, I will cast a confinement spell on you and punish you."
When the evil spirit Xiao Hei heard what I said, he waved his hands and flew to the side, far away from me.
Xiao Hei's big white teeth pierced out of his mouth and he laughed, "Hehehe, Master, don't joke with me. I am wrong. That imprisonment spell is very tormenting for ghosts. I am your ghost with the same fate. We have a soul contract. You can't do this to me."
Damn, he is quite self-aware.
After saying that, the Yin spirit Xiao Hei obediently led the way in front.
We took several detours inside the tomb of King Zhao and walked through several forks in the road.
After walking around in twists and turns, the evil spirit Xiao Hei finally stopped in front of an earthen room.
"Hey, Master, this is it."
The ghost Xiao Hei raised his hand and pointed at the earthen room and said to me.
I asked Uncle Sun to shine the flashlight into the earthen room.
When I took this photo, I discovered that there was indeed a stone slab embedded in the earthen wall of the earthen room.
Seeing that there was no danger, I took Uncle Sun into the earthen room.
The evil spirit Xiao Hei turned into a ball of black gas and flew towards the stone slab. Before I gave any order, he used his ghost energy to push the stone slab away.
The stone slab moved aside like a sliding door.
The stone slab was removed, and the path behind it was suddenly revealed.
At the end of the path, there was indeed a space channel just as the Yin Ling Xiao Hei described.
Outside the space channel is a layer of cyan light film, emitting a soft halo.
"Master, this is it. Look, is this the same space channel as the one we saw in the haunted house? I don't know why the ghost fairy 'Rootless Ghost' created so many space channels. And some of the channels are even sealed?"
The question raised by Yin Ling Xiao Hei is also my question.
I don’t know what that ghost fairy called “Rootless Ghost” is doing.
The space passage on the ghost building side cannot be used to enter the Wrongful Dead City, but can be used to exit. However, the space passage on this side can be used to enter and exit, which makes me confused.
However, these are not the issues I consider.
The key now is to enter the City of the Dead and find my master Jiang Jiuzhen.
After finding no danger, I took Uncle Sun directly into the space channel without hesitation.
The structure in the space channel is basically the same as that in the ghost building, except that there is no ghost monument.
The green gate is embedded in the green light curtain at the end.
The ghost Xiao Hei reminded: "Master, as long as one hand touches the gate, we can enter the City of the Dead."
