Chapter 675: Divine Tomb
Xu Xuan laughed for a while at "Haha", and then instructed Qin Motong to give me the isolated corpse poison, and asked me to try to extract the life qi in it to see if I could find clues with it.
Qin Motong nodded, and then released a scorpion from a bamboo tube, which was shaped like a scorpion. But the body was blood-red, as clear as a ruby.
The stinger at the tip of its tail is the only part of its body that has a different color, and it is dark black.
I remember when I was a kid. My grandfather once took me to the mountains to play, and I pulled out a scorpion from under the rock, and I was too young to know what it was, so I grabbed it with my hands, and I was stabbed by the scorpion.
From that moment on, I had an indescribable awe of the scorpions, especially the barbed-like spikes on their tails, which made my head a little bigger when I saw them.
Qin Motong said: "The corpse poison is on the stinger of this scorpion, the first day of the new year, you collect the life qi inside and try it." β
I smiled wryly and didn't move.
Xu Xuan saw my thoughts, so he said to me: "Don't worry, it's Motong's Gu worm, not an ordinary scorpion, if she doesn't let it sting you, then you won't be fine, just do it." β
I'm not a mother-in-law either. Since Xu Xuan said this, I also squinted and stretched out my hand, and when I saw that the scorpion didn't react, I was a little bolder. Gradually approaching the tail of the scorpion, and then extracted an extremely strange life qi contained in the corpse poison. Bai Du Yixia performed a new chapter of the Song Hall to cut the mouth of the L section
After I succeeded, I immediately retracted my hand, and Qin Motong quickly withdrew the scorpion into the bamboo tube.
I stuffed the life qi in my hand into the numerology compass, and then began to deduce the hexagrams.
But in the process of deduction, I felt that all the resistance of the previous one appeared, if it was usual. Even if you can't make a hexagram, the process of deduction will not encounter any resistance, but this time, I obviously feel that this hexagram is divinerable, but the deduction will not move.
It's like there's a door in front of me, and it's hidden, and there are countless treasures behind it, but I just can't open it, and I can't get everything behind it.
In this case, my grandfather also told me that I can't calculate the fate of that life, because there is a certain physiognomy master who has set up some "life cards (qa)" on the body of the owner of that fate, in order to prevent other physiognomy masters from peeking at the numerology.
And the setting of the "life card" cannot be done without the appearance of the gods.
In the same way, to break the life card, the physiognomy of the destroyer must be above the physiognomy who set the life card, otherwise it is impossible to succeed.
In other words, I can't deduce any clues from this fate.
There are too many things I can't deduce, so I try to let the numerology compass determine the source of that life. As a result, the numerology compass kept spinning.
This meant that the thing was nearby, but I soon understood that it was referring to the Gu worm of the Seedling Tung, because the red scorpion had the corpse poison in its tail thorns.
I used physiognomy to shield the bamboo tube of Qin Motong, and then used the numerology compass to find it, but the compass did not move, and the life qi in the compass was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any reaction.
Seo Hyun saw that the situation was wrong and asked me what was wrong.
I recounted the situation I encountered, and then added embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I can't seem to break that life card." β
Xu Xuan smiled and said: "It's okay, so that the case is interesting, if we find the main owner at once, it won't be fun." β
Although Seo Hyun had a smile on his face, I could still see the disappointment flashing in his eyes.
He, like me, didn't have much time to waste.
Without waiting for Xu Xuan to speak, Tian Shiqian said: "We may be able to go to the Northeast to find that Li Xin and give him some benefits, and see if he is willing to help us break that life card." β
I'm a phase master myself, but Xu Hyun and they even have to ask other phase masters to help, and I seem to have no value in this team all of a sudden.
It's really unpleasant to feel like you're useless.
Seo Hyun patted me on the shoulder and said, "People feel powerless a lot of times, and I do the same, so you don't have to be frustrated, only continuous efforts can avoid being less powerless next time you encounter the same thing." β
I nodded to Xu Xuan, how to say it, Xu Xuan sometimes looks naΓ―ve, but he can see the major rights and wrongs very clearly.
Then Xu Xuan said again: "In addition, in the first year of junior high school, you are not completely unhelpful to us, at least you told us that behind this corpse poison, there may also be a phase master involved, which will play a very important role in our future investigation." β
When Seo Hyun said this, I suddenly felt that I had caught a key point.
A physiognomy master set up a "life card" in the numerology of the corpse poison master, and I couldn't go beyond the life card to spy on the numerology of the corpse poison master, but I could clearly spy on the existence of the life card, and I could even find the weak life qi of the physiognomy master on the life card.
Although the "life card" can hide a person's numerology, it has a big drawback, that is, it will expose the numerology of the person who set the life card.
While talking about my discovery, I went to collect the faint life qi of that phase master.
Xu Ruohui asked me next to me: "In the first year of junior high school, if that physiognomy master also sets a life card for himself, wouldn't it be in vain?" β
I shook my head and said, "It's impossible, a physiognomy master can only set a life card for one person in his life, because the fate card has a certain effect of hindering the numerology of the Heavenly Dao, so it cannot be used on a large scale, and each physiognomy master only has one chance to do this in his life." β
Soon I collected the life qi of the phase master from the life card, although it was faint, but it was very clear.
It's just that after a little deference, I was immediately a little disappointed, because the physiognomist lived more than a thousand years ago, and now he is dead.
Hearing me say this, Xu Xuan frowned and said, "So, that life card was also left over a thousand years ago?" β
I nodded and didn't speak, but continued to look for clues related to the physiognomy master, and after a while I said to Xu Xuan: "The physiognomy used by this physiognomy master is not the traditional Taoist physiognomy, and it also contains the physiognomy of the Wumen in it, and besides, he is from outside the Guan, not Han, and its tomb is in the Northeast!" β
Hearing me say this, Xu Xuan said happily: "Great, as long as you find the tomb of that physiognomy master, you can know his life, and if you know his life, it is possible to judge his relationship with the owner of the corpse poison." β
"It may even be possible to directly get clues from the owner of the corpse poison, Chu Yi, you did a great job, the case has finally progressed, Chu Yi, you are really our lucky star."
I shook my head and said, "If it weren't for your efforts for half a year to separate the corpse poison, my ability would be useless, so the first credit will be given to Mo Tong." β
Xu Xuan also turned his head to look at Yang Motong, and then solemnly said to her: "Thank you, Motong." β
Qin Motong smiled at Xu Xuan.
Then Xu Xuan urged me to ask me where the tomb of the god was in the northeast and whether the specific location could be determined.
I put the life qi of the god into the numerology compass and calculated, and soon I had the answer, and the direction pointed to the north of the twenty-three ditches.
I pointed in that direction, Xu Xuan frowned and said: "That direction is Changbai Mountain Tianchi, but Tianchi is now a tourist area, and it is the first month, and it is the peak season for watching rime and skiing, I estimate that there will be a lot of people, and it will be a little troublesome to handle cases over there." β
Tian Shiqian said: "The first day of junior high just said that it was in the north, not necessarily on the Tianchi side, it may not be that it has not reached Tianchi, or it may have passed Tianchi." β
Xu Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, it's just that this north, Tianchi is too famous, and it suddenly makes me think of it." β
Anyway, we had an important clue, so we sped up and continued north, our primary goal of finding out where the cemetery was.
We walked through the dense forest, and although we had picked up our speed, we had to stop and investigate if we encountered any strange things along the way, so that even if we picked up our speed, it was not fast enough.
We walked in the forest for more than ten days before we barely reached the foot of the snow-capped mountain of Tianchi in Changbai Mountain.
And this side is also on the border line between China and North Korea, and the slightest carelessness in our position may cause misunderstanding among the officers and soldiers guarding the border.
It would be bad if we were treated as stowaways again.
After arriving at the foot of the mountain, Seo Hyun asked me, "On the first day of junior high school, can you feel how far we are from the tomb of the gods?" β
I took a deep breath and said, "I just found some clues in the fate of that god, and I think I probably know the location of the god's tomb." β
Seo Hyun asked me what clues I had found, and asked me to hurry up.
I pointed to the top of the snow-capped mountain and said, "The life qi of that god has been dead for thousands of years, and in these thousands of years, his life qi has gradually appeared like a corpse, that is, that god may have become a corpse, and his corpse has a situation of fire and water." β
Xu Xuan was stunned for a moment and said: "It is understandable that the phase master turned into a corpse, after all, he was plotting with an extremely powerful corpse, and there is nothing strange about becoming a corpse after death, but what does the fire water mean, does it refer to Tianchi?" β
I nodded and said, "Yes, the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain is a volcanic crater, and there is water on the fire, which just meets the fateful phase. β
"Although this hexagram is complete, it will take a while to solve the hexagram, after all, this hexagram involves a divine numerology."
Xu Xuan said: "Don't worry, it's good to be sure that his grave is located, it doesn't matter if the hexagram can be solved, we have to find a way to find the underwater cemetery." β
After a while, Xu Xuan said: "I knew I was going to go into the water, I brought some diving equipment, and I can save some magic powers and talismans." β
In other words, even if there is no diving equipment, Seo Hyun has a way to get into the water, and it seems that this time we are going to go underwater again.
