The Xin Family Ancestral Hall was locked, but such a lock was nothing to an old agent from the Ming Dynasty. He only used two thin wires and opened the lock in three seconds.
Yin Molan opened the door, and Ning Tao followed him in.
There were no lights in the ancestral hall and it was dark. It was dark after Yin Molan closed the door. Ning Tao took out his mobile phone, woke up the screen, and then the faint light released by the screen came to the shrine.
The wordless sign is missing.
Ning Tao then used his mobile phone to take pictures of other spiritual tablets, but still didn't find the wordless tablet. He frowned, "I was clearly here last time, why is it missing?"
"That woman knew you would come again." Yin Molan made a judgment.
Ning Tao had no idea. Could he only agree to Zhu Hongqin's conditions in order to see the recipe for Xun Zu Dan? If it was just Bai Sheng, he would agree without hesitation, but with Bai Jing in the middle, it gave him a headache.
"Wait!" Yin Molan said, and his magic seemed a bit strange.
Ning Tao's heart moved and he asked tentatively: "Senior Yin, have you discovered anything?"
Yin Molan walked around the ancestral hall, walking from the left wall to the right wall, then from the right wall to the wall opposite the shrine, and then said: "This ancestral hall..."
"Is there anything wrong with this ancestral hall?" Ning Tao was a little anxious.
Yin Molan looked up at the roof again, seeming to confirm something, and then said: "This is the study of the third prince Zhu! I have been there several times, and I have an impression. Have you seen that beam?" He raised his finger and pointed to the room above his head. Liang, "If I remember correctly, the two characters of sun and moon are definitely engraved on it. Together they form a clear character. These are the words that Prince Zhu used to motivate himself and not forget the past."
Ning Tao jumped up, raised his body from the ground, stepped on the void with his right foot, stepped on the void with his left foot, and then he jumped onto the beam. He grabbed the top of the beam with one hand, fixed it, and blew on the beam. A piece of dust was blown away, and it turned out that the two characters "日月" were engraved on the old beam. There was a little space between the two characters, but together they formed the character "明".
"Senior Yin, what you said is true. There are indeed two characters on it: sun and moon." Ning Tao let go of his hand and his body fell naturally. Before touching the ground, he bent his legs and stood firmly on the ground.
With a ladder at his feet, he became more and more proficient in this cultivation skill. If there is no roof above his head, he can still take a step in the air and jump up to a height of about two meters.
Yin Molan's eyes showed a strange light, "Brother Ning, this kung fu of yours is interesting, what is it called?"
Ning Tao said: "There is a ladder at your feet, but Senior Yin, now is not the time to talk about kung fu. You haven't told me yet, what did you find?"
Yin Molan said: "This study was moved and rebuilt one to one. If you say that the Zhuhongqin is really related to the Hongyu girl, she might copy and rebuild the mechanism and the secret room together."
Ning Tao suddenly became excited, "Where is the secret room of the agency?"
Yin Molan walked to the wall behind the shrine, counted the bricks from the corner up to "8", and then counted from the left to "8". It would be best if he stretched out his hand against a wall brick and pushed in.
Kaka…
The sound of machine movement came from the underground, and the ground shook slightly. In a blink of an eye, a tunnel entrance appeared on the ground beside Yin Molan.
Ning Tao followed and moved closer. He was no longer satisfied with the weak light from the mobile phone screen. He simply activated the mobile phone flashlight and cast the beam into the tunnel.
The tunnel extends downward at a forty-five-degree angle, and a few meters deep is a corner. The passage that can be seen is made of gray clay. The top of the passage is arched. Every stone brick is full of traces of erosion over time. It has a history of at least several hundred years.
"Follow me." Yin Molan ducked into the tunnel.
Ning Tao followed him into the tunnel, feeling a little curious, "Senior Yin, I saw you counting bricks, counting 8 vertically and 8 horizontally. Is there any meaning in this?"
Yin Molan clasped his fists and said with respect in his voice, "That's the name of Emperor Taizu."
Ning Tao suddenly realized that the Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty was Zhu Yuanzhang, and his nickname was Zhu Chongba. Yin Molan just counted 8 vertically and 8 horizontally. Isn't that "double eight"
The two of them passed the corner and walked several dozen meters sideways to the end of the tunnel.
A stone gate blocked the road, and a pair of small stone lions were placed at the door. Yin Molan walked straight to the stone lion on the left, reached out and grabbed the stone ball in the stone lion's mouth, and then twisted it.
Click click click…
Amidst a series of sounds, the stone door opened.
Ning Tao was about to go in, but Yin Molan grabbed him and said, "Don't move!"
Whoosh whoosh!
Dozens of crossbow bolts flew out of the stone door, grazing the bodies of Ning Tao and Yin Molan as they flew towards the tunnel they came from. Then the sound of crossbow bolts hitting clay bricks was heard in the dark tunnel.
Ning Tao broke out into a cold sweat, as several crossbow bolts flew almost right in front of his face. If Yin Molan hadn't pulled him and stood beside the door frame, he would have been shot. His casual attack can block blunt blows, but the penetrating damage of crossbow arrows cannot be prevented. Even if he has special spiritual power to heal, if he hits a vital point, his life will be in danger.
"Okay, follow me." Yin Molan stepped out and entered the stone room behind the stone door.
Ning Tao also followed into the stone chamber. He raised his mobile phone high and observed the stone chamber with the light of his mobile phone's flashlight.
To be precise, it was a tomb chamber with a vault and a sarcophagus in the middle.
A stone platform was placed in front of the sarcophagus, and a spiritual tablet was placed on it, which said the tomb of "Benefactor Zhu Hongyu".
After seeing the spirit tablet, Ning Tao's eyes moved to the sarcophagus, and he was excited. It was hidden so secretly. There was probably a vermilion skull in the sarcophagus!
Yin Molan bowed three times to the scarlet jade spiritual tablet.
Ning Tao also bowed three times, and the deceased was the greatest.
After paying homage, Yin Molan walked to the sarcophagus and pushed it with all his strength, but the sarcophagus did not move at all.
Clang!
Yin Molan pulled out the Xiuchun Knife, slashed it into the gap filled with triple soil under the lid of the sarcophagus, and then dragged the knife along the gap to cut. The Xiuchun Dao is Wu Yao's magic weapon. It cuts iron like clay. Although the three-component soil in the cracks of the sarcophagus is hard, it is as good as tofu under his Xiuchun Dao.
boom!
The lid of the sarcophagus was pushed open by Yin Molan.
Ning Tao couldn't wait to get closer.
There was no corpse in the sarcophagus, only a skull fragment, white with yellowish color, and irregular shape, very similar to the skull fragment he saw in Yin Molan's cave last time.
Sure enough, the Xin family has a scarlet jade skull fragment!
Ning Tao stretched out his hand towards the skull fragment, his hand trembling with excitement.
But before he could grab the skull fragment, Yin Molan took the first step and grabbed the skull fragment in the sarcophagus.
There was nothing special about the front of the skull, no different from ordinary skull fragments, but after Yin Molan turned it over, it became extraordinary. There are a lot of cyan words written on the back of it, all of which are the names and weights of the spiritual materials. Ning Tao's eyes fell on the cyan handwriting, and he concentrated on memorizing the contents.
A minute later, Yin Molan suddenly handed the skull fragment in his hand to Ning Tao's hand, "You take it, the old rules, I will find spiritual materials for you, and you will refine the Xunzu Dan for me. The effect of the Xunzu Dan you made last time Very good, my demon power has greatly increased, you should keep this thing. In the future, when we find all the skull fragments, you and I will copy a recipe and bury the skull of the red jade girl. "
Ning Tao didn't refuse. He opened the small medicine box and put the skull fragments in. "Okay, I'll keep it for now and bury it in the future after I collect all the fragments."
Yin Molan closed the coffin lid again, bowed three times to such a spiritual tablet, and murmured in his mouth: "Miss Hongyu, Yin has no choice but to offend. In the future, Yin will bury the girl's body generously and find out the real culprit. To avenge the girl and sue the spirit in heaven.”
Ning Tao also bowed three times to the scarlet jade spiritual tablet, but he didn't say anything.
People may really have a spirit in heaven and a spirit on earth, but who has seen it
The two returned the same way, left the tunnel, and returned to the Xin family ancestral hall. Yin Molan pressed the "Double Eight" brick again, and the tunnel entrance was closed.
"Let's get out of here." Ning Tao said.
Yin Molan nodded. After walking out of the ancestral hall, he closed the door and locked it.
The two left Ronghua Mansion and returned to the place where the car was kept.
Qing Zhui came up to him, "Brother Ning, how are you?"
Ning Tao said happily: "I got it, let's go."
Yin Molan said: "I'm looking for spiritual materials, but I'm not sure I can find them. It's still the same old rule, I can find as much as I can, and if I can't find it, you can collect it."
Ning Tao smiled and said, "Okay, as soon as I gather the spiritual materials, I will start refining the elixir, and I will give you the first one."
Yin Molan hugged Ning Tao and got on his motorcycle, but he seemed to remember something and said again, "Brother Ning, come here and I will whisper to you."
Ning Tao said: "Is there anything you can't say in front of Qing Zhui?"
Qing Zhui looked unhappy, "Just, is there anything I can't listen to?"
Yin Molan hesitated for a moment, "Okay, let me tell you straight, brother Ning, you must be restrained when it comes to Miss Qing, no more than once a month, and even once more will be harmful to your health and shorten your life."
Ning Tao was immediately embarrassed. He thought Yin Molan was going to whisper something, but he didn't expect it to be something like this.
Qing Zhui blushed, but he didn't blame Yin Molan for refuting.
"That's it, whether you like to hear it or not, I'm leaving." Yin Molan lit up the engine and left on his motorcycle.
Ning Tao also climbed onto the Tiandao motorcycle, and without him having to say hello, Qing Zhui also climbed onto the car and hugged his waist tightly.
It's just a battery car, but she has to use the same posture as a motorcycle, right
"Brother Ning, don't listen to him. I won't harm you. I'm here to serve you. You won't get hurt no matter how many times you do." As soon as they got on the road, Qing Zhui said this to Ning Tao's ear. .
Ning Tao's body froze, and the Tiandao battery car almost hit a tree...
at the same time.
In Ronghua Mansion, two women slowly came to the door of the Xin family ancestral hall.
These two women, one is Zhu Hongqin, and the other is her grandmother's bodyguard Qi Gu.
Qi Gu looked towards the back wall and said, "Miss, please help us take the things away."
A smile appeared on Zhu Hongqin's lips, but she didn't say anything...
