Chapter 52: One Life and One Death

When I saw what was in my hand, I shuddered and wanted to shake it off.

The blind man suddenly snatched the skull, looked at it over and over again, leaned to the end of his nose and sniffed it, and nodded for no reason.

I asked him what it was for.

He looked at me with a smile and said:

"Duan Chengfeng said that you should bring something back, and said that you already have one of them."

I was stunned for a moment, then reacted and glared at him fiercely, what do you mean that I already have one, who doesn't have a brain?

The blind man lowered his voice and said: Everyone has brain melon bones, but yin bones are not easy to get.

I was excited, looked at the skull, and then looked at Pan Ying, who looked disgusted, and then I reacted.

It turned out that this skull was actually a yin bone, so no wonder I felt the cold go straight into the cracks of the bones just now.

'Pan Ying' suddenly made a move just now, and it should have sensed the existence of the Yin bone.

I can't help but think of Lao He's wrench, which is also a yin bone, and that wrench is not so cool.

If the pubic bone is just a special kind of dead man's bone, how can the wrench 'disappear' from me......

Seeing the blind man put the skull in his bag, I didn't think much about it, turned around and picked up the watch.

The dial had been shattered, the hands were no longer moving, and even the seconds hand was gone.

Looking at a watch with little to no possibility of repair, I had mixed feelings.

Pan Ying leaned over and asked where the watch came from.

Dou Dabao pulled her and whispered that I gave it to the little charter wife.

Pan Ying poked her head and looked at the dial, and suddenly said "Huh", grabbed my wrist, pointed to the watch on my wrist and said:

"The time shown by the two watches is about the same!"

I was stunned, but when I looked closely, I saw that the time indicated on my watch was 1:19 minutes, and the hands of the women's watch had stopped at almost the same position, except that the minute hand had stayed at 14 minutes.

Pan Ying sighed and said:

"It turned out that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and one o'clock in the afternoon was not thirteen o'clock, thirteen o'clock fourteen, one hundred and thirteen, one life, this table is really romantic."

Seeing the time on the watch, I still cared about her nonsense, and I wanted to plunge into the water curtain immediately.

Liulihua said that there was a girl in the ice...... Xu Jie's watch was washed down here, and the time displayed was only five minutes different from mine...... In other words, she was still on it five minutes ago, and the girl in the ice was her!

Now there was an explosion on it and the watch was washed down......

The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became, but the blind man grabbed my arm and shook his head at me.

Obviously, he had already thought of what I was thinking, and he was worried that I would be impulsive and so he grabbed me.

The water curtain at the entrance of the cave gradually became sparse.

The main hall has been flooded into an ocean, and strangely enough, the water that has been poured down does not seem to be able to remain, and the water level is falling at a rate visible to the naked eye.

As soon as I thought about it, I realized that the explosion I heard earlier had nothing to do with the chains connected to the golden beetle.

The explosives buried in the glazed flowers should have been ignited by the tung oil burning on the top.

The chain on the golden beetle monster is connected to the tiger-headed stone gate when we came.

Now that the chain is broken, the stone gate is naturally open. The water pouring down from above was pouring out through the stone door.

I was woken up by a 'screeching' sound.

When I looked up, I saw that after the water had passed, a large block of ice had slipped down from it and fell into the water.

The blind man looked out, and said with some excitement:

If you're not mistaken, it's a stagnant body of water like a pond. This is both a mechanism and an explosive, and the exit to escape is opened under the waterhole, which is definitely not something that Liulihua can do. In addition to serving as a military advisor and yin and yang calculation, the corner beam of the second master of the general beard is also responsible for designing the defense mechanism of the cottage. This underground palace tomb is most likely built by Ye Jingui and Liulihua.

Pan Ying couldn't help but say: Since he has such a great ability, is he afraid of Liulihua so much that he obeys his words?

Except for Dou Dabao's interface to 'discuss' with her, neither I nor the blind man spoke.

Pan Ying was puzzled because she was also a woman.

As a man, after this experience, he no longer dares to offend women.

Turn people into invisible worms...... So that they can't even go to hell when they die......

This ruthlessness alone is already terrifying.

At the beginning, Liulihua probably revealed some means to Ye Jingui, which made him completely frightened, so that he would obey his orders, and even after finding the ghost yamen, he did not dare to disobey the matters she explained.

Now it seems that Liulihua's style is really in line with the identity of 'Yingmen Liang', ruthless enough and absolutely unique.

"Boom la la ......"

There was a sound of metal clashing, and as a cloud of ice fell, a soft ladder made of iron chains fell from the crack in the stone.

The blind man and I looked at each other, and together we cautiously poked our heads out to look up.

By the light of the flashlight, I saw that the soft ladder was hanging down from a stone cave diagonally above.

Depending on the situation, it should be the outlet that the glass flower left for itself.

When the ice fell again, I said to the blind man and the others:

"After so many years, I don't know if this ladder is still strong, so I'll go up and explore the way first."

The blind man looked at me for a moment, and then said slowly:

"Duan Chengfeng said, you are our lifestar this time, if you can't go back, we all have to die here."

I nodded, didn't say anything more, poked my head out and looked up, put my watch in my bag, and climbed up the soft ladder.

I don't believe in the 'life star', it's probably a blind man's fear that I will give up on myself.

But they accompanied me from birth to death, and I had to restrain my emotions no matter what, and put my personal feelings after brotherhood.

Climb the ladder into the hole, find the fixed point of the ladder, confirm the sturdiness, and I beckoned the blind men to come up.

Pan Ying didn't change her curiosity, and after climbing up, she walked all the way along the slippery stone cave, asking this and that all the way.

The blind man gave her answers one by one, and finally said:

The composition of a beard is complex. The beards that can dominate one side have some origins and means. Judging from the burial and deployment of these mechanisms and explosives, Ye Jingui was likely to have been a soldier before becoming the second leader of Lao Turtle Mountain, which is why he blasted so accurately. As for the truth, there is really no answer.

I was in a state of confusion, trying to put aside despair, so I forced myself to think for a while, and then offered some observations:

Ye Jingui didn't leave here alone, with Liulihua's hatred for the bandits, he would never let go of any of them at will. The more than 20 ghost beards who followed Ye Jingui out of here should have become Liulihua's diehards for some reason before his death. They may also have contributed to the creation of such underground projects, so they will be 'forgiven' by Liulihua.

The blind men agreed with me, but we avoided one topic in unison.

That is, how was Liulihua able to win over those bandits in a short period of time.

The ruthlessness of the Yingmen beam may be only one aspect, but it is not enough to make the wild and untamable bandit betray the big cabinet White Yasha.

When you think about it, if a woman wants to have a place in the bandits' den, her body may be the biggest asset......

"Oh my God!"

The blind man who was walking in front suddenly gasped.

Dou Dabao, Pan Ying and I looked up, and we couldn't help but exhale.

The stone cave that was blown out should have been dug in advance and was diagonally upward.

At this moment, the blind man turned on the flashlight, and the electric light shone in front of him, and it was a dazzling and dazzling Ambilight like magic.

The four of them ran to the front with their anger in their breath, looking at each other, and they were shocked and speechless for a while.

The cave has come to an end.

Instead, stone stairs are too rough to be rougher.

The passage of continuity is not so much a road as a gap that has been forcibly separated by some force.

That kind of power should be the explosion just now.

On one side of the gap is a stone wall, and on the other side is a deep layer of ice that has emerged after passing through a large, wet empty space.

The blind man's conjecture was right.

The exit was supposed to be under a waterhole, and the outlet was blown open by the buried explosives, and the water from the pool poured into the underground hall, leaving only the cold ice above.

Under the strong shaking waves, the ice and the stone wall are more easily separated, which is why they will crack, revealing the way out laid a hundred years ago.

The beam of the flashlight shines on the ice, and the light refracted is dizzying.

Dou Dabao couldn't help but say with emotion that he had never seen the aurora, but he dared to guarantee that the brilliance of this refraction was definitely more beautiful than the aurora.

Mainly...... Others may be able to see the aurora, but they may never see the wonders we see now.

Ever since I ascended the stone staircase, the blind man has been standing shoulder to shoulder with me.

I also began to be silent.

The inner struggle is to the limit.

Xu Jie's watch must have been washed down from above, what about her?

Liulihua said that she was in the ice, would she ...... because of the explosion?

"Ah!!h

Pan Ying suddenly screamed.

"Wang...... Woo Woo ......"

At the same time, the meat floss barked wildly.

"What are you doing?" The blind man covered his ears and turned his head and asked in annoyance.

The screams of women and the barking of dogs in this environment are magnified more than ten times, which is too harsh.

However, I didn't even have the strength to cover my ears.

In the blink of an eye, I immediately knew why Pan Ying and Rou Floss suddenly reacted abnormally.

That's because there was a figure in the ice not far from me!

We should be pretty close to the ground along the way.

Even if you don't have a flashlight, there is a little light from above.

By the light and the light of the flashlight, I could easily see the man in the ice.

It was a woman.

A very old woman with a wrinkled face.

Such a woman has absolutely no charm for a young man.

But I froze.

"Wang ...... Woo......"

The cries of the meat floss turned to a whimper.

Pan Ying also came to my side with the support of Dou Dabao, pointed to the man in the ice and said:

She ...... She's Xu Jie?! How could she ...... Will it get so old? ”

Truly.

Although the face of the woman in the ice was unfamiliar, the outline of her facial features and the clothes on her body were all too familiar to me.

I am 100% sure that this woman who is at least over fifty years old is Xu Jie!

- Living corpses cannot generate Yuan Yang on their own, and if they can't get it, they will not die if they become dry bones.

This is the record of living corpses on the Hundred Ghost Genealogy......

"Xu Jie! Xu Jie ......"

I shouted, pulling out everything I had on my body that was considered hard, and smashing the ice with all my might.

Xu Jie's originally closed eyes opened at this time.

The two looked at each other through the thick ice.

After a brief pause, I pounded the iron-hard ice even more frantically.

"Woe to you! Woe ...... Don't smash it! ”

Dou Dabao and the blind man grabbed me from behind.

"Your hands are cracked...... Don't smash it! Pan Ying yelled at me with red eyes.

Xu Jie looked at me silently in the depths of the ice, pursing her lips, but two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

"She could see me...... That's not ice...... There's a gap there! ”

I reacted, struggled to break away from the blind man and Dou Dabao, untied my backpack randomly, took out the mud doll that had been in the bag, and shook it vigorously at Xu Jie:

"I know everything...... You go back...... I don't care ......."

The clay doll shook in front of me, and I froze on the spot.

It took a long time before the dry voice of the blind man came to my ears:

"You were clawed in the back by the Golden Beetle, doll ...... The doll must have been broken at that time...... Woe ...... Xu Jie has long been dead, don't you ...... Don't ......"

Looking at the clay doll with its head split in half in my hand, I finally couldn't hold back the tears that welled up in my eyes.

"She's my woman...... No matter what she becomes...... I won't leave her...... She's not in the ice...... It should be a crack that has been shaken open......"

I muttered, turning around to run down.

"Stop!"

The blind man threw me down on the steps from behind.

"She seems to have something to say!" Pan Ying said suddenly.

My body shook, and when I looked around, I saw Xu Jie opening her mouth to say something with teary eyes, but through the ice, I couldn't tell what she was talking about.

She seemed to realize this, paused, suddenly put her finger in her mouth and bit it hard, and wrote on the ice in front of her with her own blood:

I'm Drizzle, I shouldn't have come back, forget about me.

After the last word was written, she raised her hand and rubbed her teary eyes, nodded at me, turned around, and slowly disappeared into the depths of the ice......
