But my impression of He Lanxue was very good. After all, we all fought side by side in Xiushui Village, so I greeted her politely.
He Lanxue nodded slightly: "Yes, I have improved a lot compared to the last time I saw you!"
I was talking about where to go, but my heart was filled with joy.
Seeing that her master praised others without hesitation, Yin Linger sat over angrily and deliberately placed the big bamboo basket next to her.
I vaguely heard a strange buzzing sound coming from inside, which scared me so much that I almost slipped off my chair.
Lao Jiang held me up, and I was about to complain, but I heard him hiss at me!
At the same time, the door of the conference hall opened, and an old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit slowly pushed a wheelchair in. This old man was about fifty or sixty years old. He seemed thin, but he had a strong aura in every gesture, especially Those eyes were even brighter.
I wanted to determine the identity of the other party from what he was wearing, but I found that he was not wearing a badge belonging to Jin Lin, and there was no black knife on his waist.
Who is he?
Just when I was confused, everyone present stood up in unison, even Lao Jiang and the other black sword unicorns were in awe.
I couldn't help but pinch Lao Jiang's arm and asked, "Why isn't it Director Lin this time?"
Lao Jiang covered my mouth and said in horror: "Boy, please stop talking."
The mysterious old man's eyes flashed in my direction like flying knives, and then he sat at the head of the long table. Only then did I realize that there was an ebony chair engraved with a unicorn, which was different from our chairs.
This made me immediately realize that the identity of this mysterious old man was extremely extraordinary!
After the old man sat down, he said in a low voice: "The reason why we are all here this time is because we received an urgent report from Lao Jiang. Maybe something happened to the Yin Ruins archaeological team..."
"What?" This sentence caused a stir, making everyone present look at each other.
"Didn't the Yin Ruins archaeological team sing well?"
"Yes, they are digging within the safe zone we have drawn, and there is no way they will encounter danger."
"Then please listen to this recording." After saying that, the old man took out the tape recorder we brought back from Lei Town and pressed the play button.
Although it was not the first time I heard this recording, the cries of help from the archaeological team members, the sound of stumbling running, and the bursts of weird music that permeated the scene from beginning to end still made my hair stand on end.
The tape recorder made a nonstop tingling sound, as if a group of ghosts were chasing the archaeological team members and devouring them one by one...
Everyone present is a master, how could they not hear something fishy inside.
For a moment, everyone turned pale, and some people couldn't help but ask: "What is going on?"
"Where did this terrifying recording come from, and how can it be proven that it is from the Yin Ruins archaeological team."
"What did they dig up at the archaeological site? So much so that the whole army was wiped out."
The old man waved his hand to restore calm to the conference hall, and then said: "After comparing the voices, at least one of the people in the recording was confirmed to be Lin Jianye, the leader of the Yinxu Archaeological Team. We tried to contact Director Hou of the Henan Archaeological Institute by phone. , but was told that something happened to the archaeological team at Yin Ruins a week ago..."
"The other party kept hesitating about what exactly happened, but he repeatedly begged Qilin to take action! I know very well that Dean Hou is a person who has always been conceited. Even if a knife is placed on his neck, he will not bow his head to me. This time, if we suddenly ask Qilin for help, the situation will only be worse than imagined. "
"So what do you mean?" a Qilin member asked cautiously.
"Save! We must save."
The old man said: "But before that, let me tell you some good news. Lao Jiang has brought back the deciphered memorial. Although it is only half, it is a timely help for us."
After saying that, the old man turned on the projector, and a dense string of words immediately appeared on the screen. Although Lao Jiang copied these words with a pen, the content inside caused an extremely strong visual impact on everyone present. !
Because this is actually the death note written by the tomb robber king Wen Tao.
In the first year of Tiancheng, Wen Tao accidentally obtained a mysterious ancient scroll, which recorded a lost royal city buried under the wasteland. It contained countless treasures and mechanisms that could kill people without blinking an eye.
Wen Tao, who loved tomb robbing his whole life, was immediately attracted to it. He felt that this was the biggest challenge in the world, so he mobilized an army of 10,000 diggers and rushed to Anyang, Henan Province, but he did not expect that this would become a nightmare in his life!
On February 6th of the first year of Tiancheng, Wen Tao dug three feet into the ground near the Yin Ruins, but still found nothing. Finally, with the help of a mysterious staff witch, he finally found the real entrance to the Yin Ruins using the different directions of the sundial in spring, summer, autumn and winter!
Wen Tao also recorded in detail the method of finding the entrance, including the Western Elephant deduction, the three-wall orientation, etc.
Seeing this, I suddenly remembered the book "Thirty-Six Rules of Moving Mountains and Reclamating Seas" in my hand. It records that the ancient royal tombs often corresponded to the stars in the sky, and relied on heavenly luck to keep the dynasty immortal. .
The emperor's palace is called Ziwei Yuan, the official court is called Taiwei Yuan, and the common people's market is called Tianshi Yuan. They are collectively called the Three Yuans.
The Yin Ruins is not a simple tomb, but a lost royal city, which exactly fits the orientation of the Three Yuans.
Before going to the grave, Wen Tao was full of confidence. He even promised that he would make the 10,000 digging soldiers rich and prosperous for the rest of their lives. He was cheered by the soldiers!
But after entering Yin Ruins, Wen Tao's notes began to be different. He could no longer record dates, but instead turned them into fragmented sentences.
"How is it possible? On the first day, I lost more than 300 people. Behind the first door were all red devils."
"That voice is chasing us to the ends of the earth."
“The trees are laden with the dead man’s fruit, and the bronze has opened its eyes to us.”
"We were defeated again and again, and blood flowed like a river..."
The further back I go, the more I can see the deep humiliation and endless fear in Wen Tao's words! For the first time, a generation of tomb robbers felt what it meant to be at a loss.
"Curse, we have all been cursed by King Shang, and slowly turned into ghosts and become his puppets."
"I must come back alive and break this curse!"
Wen Tao's bloody letter ended abruptly here. I knew this was only half of the memorial, but the shock it brought to me was extraordinary.
Wen Tao indeed led the digging army to find the entrance of Yin Ruins and successfully entered the tomb.
But the result was not a return with a full load, but heavy casualties and a curse of bad luck.
But what were those things he saw?
Why do bronze vessels open their eyes, and why do trees bear fruit of the dead.
After the screening ended, the old man said: "It was extremely difficult to obtain this text, because a mysterious force also focused on it, and even invaded Lei Town for this reason. Fortunately, there is Lao Jiang and his new apprentice. Li Jinglan, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
"So this mission is very difficult! Not only must we beware of that mysterious force, we must also check what happened in Yin Xu. The danger level has reached SSS."
The old man's words made everyone present gasp again.
My heart also skipped a beat. Oh my god, dealing with the blood evil in Xiushui Village has almost left me and Lao Jiang dead.
How terrifying are these three S-levels?
At the same time, I also have a bad feeling. This job will not fall on me again, right? I turned my attention to Lao Jiang and found that Lao Jiang was also hiding with his head down.
As expected, the old man asked with a smile: "In your opinion, who is better to send this time?"
Almost half of the people turned their attention to Lao Jiang, and I suddenly thought to myself: It's over.
One of them, Black Saber Qilin, who was wearing sunglasses, even started to recommend: "Didn't Jiang Donghu go down to Yin Ruins once? He also marked a safe zone for the Yin Ruins archaeological team. Besides, he also brought the burial inscriptions back. I think it's up to them It’s perfect for master and disciple to go.”
Another person also nodded and said: "As the saying goes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle."
I looked at Lao Jiang in shock. Lao Jiang had been to Yin Ruins?
Why didn't he tell me.
Lao Jiang looked embarrassed and coughed: "Can we not mention what happened back then? Yes, Ximei and I went to Yin Ruins, but we only entered the outskirts of the underground royal city. And what happened to us that time? You should know how much of a psychological shadow it has.”
After Lao Jiang said this, I found that Yin Ling'er also looked at He Lanxue strangely.
Obviously, the trip to Yin Xu was a restricted area for Lao Jiang and He Lanxue, and neither of them told them.
But with such good skills, what kind of psychological shadow will they suffer?
I suddenly remembered the man's words at the end of the tape recorder: I know what you did back then...
The recording just played also seemed to have deliberately cut out this sentence.
The first time I woke up, I was told that this sentence was the key to unlocking all the mysteries!
