The years of reselling the haunted house

Li took a slight look at the two kappa, as if he had discovered something, he stretched out his arms and hugged one of the kappa, apparently wanting to move him away.

He exerted all his strength, but found that the kappa was very light, so he hugged the kappa almost without any effort.

"Huh..." Li Weidu was also very surprised, and put the kappa aside lightly.

I also went to move another Kappa away.Sure enough, the weight of the kappa was very light, which was not consistent with their jade transformation.It doesn't even have the weight of an ordinary child, and it seems to be hollow inside.

Li Weidu didn't bother with the two kappa, but leaned down and scraped the soil under the two kappa's feet.

Only then did I realize that there seemed to be a stone under their feet, and when all the soil was removed, there were faintly inscribed words on it, which turned out to be a stone tablet.

It turns out that the grave is not without a stele, but the stele is not standing in front of the grave, but lying in front of the grave.

We have seen standing monuments and lying monuments, but this one is actually a lying monument.

It seems that if Li Weidu wants to find out the identity of the owner of the tomb, he will find out from the lying stele.

Li Weiwei was also very interested in the words on the stele, he read from the first word, line by line, from the beginning to the end.

Because I wanted to be alert to the movement around me, I didn't go forward, but I saw that the words on the stele were small, many, and written in great detail.

Li Weidu read the inscription in one breath, and then stared at the high grave, feeling suddenly enlightened.

"Hey, Lao Li, what's written on it?" I asked anxiously.

Li Weiwei pointed to the side: "Let's go over there and talk..."

"Are you afraid that the tomb owner will hear what's going on?" I shook my head, and Li Weiwei and I quickly left the high grave and ran to the nearby cemetery.

It's good to leave there, otherwise you have to beware of the strange snake in the grave, which makes the thief nervous.

When I got to the cemetery, I asked again: "Old Li, is it written on it who is the owner of the tomb?"

Li nodded slightly: "I have written it, and it is very detailed."

"Oh? Who is it?"

"It's a concubine in the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty."

"Ah? The concubine of the Tang Palace? In this place?" I looked at the tall tomb in front of me. Although it was tall and imposing, it was only a slightly larger tomb at best.There is no setting around it, and there is no sign of its identity, just buried in the wilderness like this?

In addition, the concubines of the Tang Dynasty are thousands of years away from now, how could they still remain on the ground until now.Generally speaking, the ancient tombs of the Tang Dynasty will be kept underground.

Li Weidu also said: "I also doubt the authenticity of this tomb, but the inscription does say that. Could it be that the tomb on the ground is just a fake, and her real tomb is underground? If it is in underground……"

Li Weidu was analyzing by himself over there, I suddenly realized a problem, and interrupted him quickly: "Wait a minute...you mean, the owner of this tomb is a noble concubine from the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Weiwei didn't understand why I had such a reaction, so he nodded quickly: "Yes, that's what the words on the tablet say, is there any problem?"

"The stele didn't say, what's the name of this imperial concubine?" I asked again.

Li shook his head slightly: "I didn't say the specific name, but the imperial concubine is called Tang Ji on the stele."

"Tang Ji? Is it her?"

Sure enough, I heard this familiar name, but found that this matter has become more and more chaotic.

"You know her?" Li Weiwei was even more surprised when he saw my reaction.

Li Weiwei didn't know about my going out of the river with Lord Jiu and what happened with Tang Ji before, so he had never heard of Tang Ji's name.

At this time, I can no longer hide it from him, because I urgently need someone to help me solve the confusion.Tang Ji's body has been at the bottom of the river, and was just picked up by Master Jiu.Why there is another Tang Ji's tomb here, no matter whether the high tomb belongs to her or not, this matter may not be as simple as we imagined.

"Old Li, that's what happened..." I pulled Li Weiwei and briefly told him what happened between me and Tang Ji.Li Weiwei listened very carefully, and I answered several questions I asked.

After listening, Li Weiwei nodded: "If what is said on the stele is true, then I boldly guess that the Tang Ji you fished up in Jiangdi may be a fake, that is to say, she It is a fake Tang concubine. On the contrary, if the one you fished out is real, then the one buried here is a fake. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, there is an empty tomb inside, but seeing how guarded by the spirit snake, is it true? The possibility of an empty grave is not high."

I was stunned: "Why did you come up with a real and a fake concubine? Lao Li, the emperor has more than one concubine. Could it be that both of them are real? Could they be the same person?"

"It should be a person. The inscription also briefly explains the experience of this imperial concubine..."

"What did the inscription say?" I also want to know the content of the inscription.

"It's almost the same as what you said before. I introduced Tang Ji's life, and then narrated her life experiences. When she was in the Tang Palace, she was depressed and unfavorable. Later, she escaped from the palace and unfortunately died on the river. .”

I nodded: "Isn't this the experience of Tang Ji?"

"That's right. But there is a discrepancy between what I told you later. Do you know who the person who erected the monument is?"

"The monument erector?"

"Yes, it's the person who erected the stele, and the person who buried Tang Ji underground. It's marked on it that the person who erected the stele was Murong Jin, a third-rank censor."

"Murong Jin?" I was taken aback when I heard that, "Isn't that the minister who fled with Tang Ji? She was a childhood sweetheart with Tang Ji, and later persuaded Tang Ji to enter the palace for his own career. Later, he bribed the palace people, and Tang Ji fled together and died on the river. He also fell into the water and died together. How could it be possible to erect a monument for Tang Ji to repair her tomb? Could this monument be fake?"

"Probably not. I think the date of the stone tablet should be very long ago. It doesn't look like a modern imitation. Moreover, the format and characters of the inscription on the inscription are all the writing style and style of the Tang Dynasty. If modern people imitate Yes, then this person must not only have a superb ability to make old cultural relics, but also have a wealth of knowledge and reserves of ancient Chinese history. Generally speaking, the possibility of imitation is very small. But this possibility is not ruled out."

Chapter 1734

Li Weiwei's analysis made some sense, and I continued to ask: "If the record on the tablet is true, then this Murong Jin did not die at that time?"

Li slightly nodded: "Not only did he not die, but he lived well. I even feel that this Murong Jin is not an ordinary person."

I smiled wryly and said: "Of course he is not an ordinary person, he is a doctor from the third rank."

Li slightly waved his hand: "That's not what I said, I said he is not an ordinary person, I suspect that he is a cultivator."

"Cultivator? A cultivator? How did you find out?"

Li Wei said: "The inscription is still an inscription. Guess what I saw on it... Qingyun Temple! There are actually words Qingyun Temple on it."

Li Weiwei asked and answered by himself, but what he said surprised me even more.

I just heard the allusion about Qingyun Temple from Li Weidu, and I didn't expect to be related to it so soon.It seems that the Qingyun Palace incident is absolutely true, otherwise it would have appeared on the stone tablets of the Tang Dynasty.

"Old Li, tell me what else is written on it." I asked Li Weidu.

"The above said that when Murong Jin took Tang Ji out of the river by boat, in addition to avoiding the pursuit of the officials, he also had another important purpose, which was to find out where the Qingyun Temple was. Xiangzhu got the key to enter Qingyun Palace. But this Murong Jin spent almost his whole life trying to find Qingyun Palace, but he never succeeded.

If he could have entered Qingyun Hall earlier, I think his status would have been ranked among the third princes at that time, and it would be a matter of course for him to become a first-rank member of the dynasty.In that case, he wouldn't have to think about pushing Tang Ji out.When he left the capital, he found that the Qingyun Temple was not dead, because he got the latest clue, so he followed the river.At that critical moment, he had committed a serious crime by abducting the imperial concubine and running away. Unless he entered the Qingyun Palace, he would surely die, and the royal family would definitely hunt him down to the end. "

I nodded: "That is in line with the situation at the time. No wonder this Murong Jin is so courageous, he dared to deceive the emperor and concubine away. It seems that he is very sure about finding Qingyun Palace for this trip, otherwise he would not take the risk of leaving. No Thinking about the end of the sinking river halfway. But why didn’t he die at that time? Oh, yes, since he is the ancestor of Murong Sturgeon, as the ancestor of Taohe, his water quality at that time must not be bad.”

"That's right. People like him can die in any way, but drowning is impossible. They already have instincts, and they are almost as good as fish in water, so how could they drown in the river?" The inscription on the stone tablet says that after the sinking of the river, due to the rapid current, he only had time to escape by himself, but failed to rescue Tang Ji. In desperation, he had to fish out Tang Ji's body and built a temple here The tomb of the noble concubine. He hid the stele on the ground, and fled the rivers and lakes without his name. The reason why he set up a lying stele was that he was afraid of being discovered by those in power and destroying the tomb of the Tang concubine. The lying stele was buried deep in the ground. Effectively avoid the pursuit of officials."

"So that's how it is." I nodded, and continued following Li Weidu's train of thought: "According to common sense, he buried Tang Ji, and it is safest not to erect a monument. Without a monument, he is naturally not afraid of being traced, but the reason why he set up The purpose of ordering the monument is to allow future generations to find it here in the future. This shows that he must have hidden something in the tomb of the imperial concubine below."

"It may also be some other truth that must be found by future generations." Li Wei said.

"Then I know. This lying monument is buried deep in the ground, and it must be difficult for ordinary people to find it. But for cultivators, especially those who are proficient in ventilation and azimuth, as long as they make accurate arrangements in advance, they can rely on compass and other tools to find it in the future." It is very easy to come back. In fact, his descendant, Murong Yu, really found this place. I believe this must be one of the activities of Murong Yu."

"That's right." Li Weiwei pointed to the ground and said, "This stele was originally buried deep in the ground, but in recent years, with the changes of the times and the development of geological movements, the stele has gradually emerged from the ground. Since the stele is here, we I believe this must be the imperial concubine's tomb."

"Then isn't there another ancient tomb below here? I didn't expect that we would find this kind of discovery in this place."

Li slightly waved his hand: "Based on the situation at the time. Murong Jin wanted to avoid the official pursuit. Although he built a tomb for the emperor, the scale will not be too large. I guess there is only a tomb room, which contains Tang Ji's body. There should be nothing else. But the inscription said that there were two Maoxiang beads in their hands at that time, one was on their own body and the other was on Tang Ji. But after he picked up Tang Ji , I didn't find the Maoxiang bead on her body. I don't know where this bead is now."

I thought to myself, another Maoxiang bead is on me.

It was given to me by Tang Ji in the Dragon King Temple.There are only two Maoxiang beads in total, one female and one male.She and Murong Jin each have one, so of course there will be no women here.

But after thinking about it, I still didn't tell Li Weiwei about it.It's not that I don't trust him, but that Maoxiangzhu is so important, and there are still many people who covet it, so it's better not to let it show up until the matter is clarified.

The current situation is that there are two Tang Jis in total.They all claimed to be concubines of Tang Xuanzong.

Although the imperial concubine in this tomb is not clearly stated, the records on the inscription are actually written there.

If there is really a noble concubine's tomb below here, and there is really a noble concubine's body in the tomb, then it is obvious that the two Tang concubines really appeared, one real and the other fake.

Li Weidu has been staring at the imperial concubine's tomb in a daze, I don't know what he is thinking.So I asked behind him: "Lao Li, what are you thinking about the whole time you look at this grave?"

"Li Yang, you don't want to know, is there really a noble concubine lying in the tomb of the noble concubine?"

I was taken aback when I heard this: "Old Li, what do you mean? You don't want to go into the tomb to see it?"

Li Weiwei smiled: "That's right, I'm going to dig him up today to see who is lying inside."

As he said that, Li Weiwei took out a small folding engineering shovel from his satchel, installed it with two clicks, and was ready to dig down the grave bag.

I felt something was wrong, it didn't seem to fit Li Weiwei's character.

My impression is that he is a conceited and arrogant person with a calm and restrained personality.Doing this kind of rash thing today is not in line with his personality.

How can you start digging a grave before you fully understand it?

Chapter 1735 The Water Ghost Appears

I was about to hold him back and think of other ways.As a result, at this moment, a dull voice suddenly came from behind us: "Stop!"

Shocked, I looked back suddenly, and I didn't realize when there were more people behind me.

Li Weidu seemed to have expected it a long time ago, he smiled and held the engineering shovel, and slowly turned around.

I saw about two meters behind us, a person standing next to a grave.

This person was dressed in a black robe and wore a huge bamboo hat on his head. He was of medium build, and the bamboo hat was pressed down very low, covering most of his face.

This kind of dress, like a hero in a martial arts drama, looks particularly abrupt in modern society.

But this man naturally exuded a murderous aura, which I could feel, because I found that the pores on my body were opening rapidly.

"You really showed up. Senior, I didn't intend to offend the owner of this tomb. I just wanted to ask you to show up. This junior apologizes to you."

Li slightly bowed at the man, and put the engineer shovel back into his bag.

It turned out that Li Weiwei used this method to force that person to show up. He should have already felt that there were people around us staring at us.At this point, I secretly sighed, it seems that I still have a long way to grow.In terms of experience and experience alone, it is far behind Li Weiwei.

Li Weiwei is young, but has such experience and experience, which may also be the reason for his extraordinary talent. I can only use this to explain it.His decisiveness and sophistication in handling things may even be admired by his third uncle.

The man snorted coldly and didn't speak again.I guess it might be because of Li Weiwei's trick, some of them can't get off the table.

Li Weidu seemed to know what he was thinking, and hurriedly said: "You don't have to think too much, senior. If you don't come out, I really want to dig up this imperial concubine's tomb to see who is sleeping in it. So it's okay for senior to show up." Saved the tomb."

"You're a smart kid. If you can find this place, you can be regarded as the best among the people. Presumably, you also came here for the bead?" the man said coldly.

"Presumably, many people have come here, senior? Senior has hidden the secret of Maoxiangzhu for so many years, and recently let it out suddenly. Didn't he just want to invite some people who are interested in Qingyun Palace to come here? If I If you guess correctly, you may not really have Maoxiang Pearl in your hand." Li Wei said.

The man was taken aback for a while, as if he didn't expect Li Weiwei to say such a thing, his face was lifted up, revealing a pair of eyes, and he observed the two of us carefully, mainly looking at Li Weiwei.

At the same time, I also saw a pair of eyes of the other party, and I couldn't help but tremble when I saw it.

Because these eyes are too dull, the black eyeballs can't be seen at all, and they are replaced by off-white, as if the eyeballs are covered with a white film.I thought to myself, is this old man suffering from cataracts?Can such eyes see people clearly?

Then the man lowered his head again, as if his eyes were afraid of light, so he used the big bamboo hat to cover them.

And after listening to Li Weiwei's words, I also had doubts in my heart.

The person who came here is most likely the water ghost Murong Sturgeon we were looking for. We have gone through ups and downs and finally waited for the water ghost to show up.

Maoxiang beads are male and female, and the female is already in my hand.Xiong's body used to be on Murong Jin's body, but now it should be in Murong Jin's hands.But Li Weiwei said that he may not really have Maoxiangzhu in his hand, where did this come from?

In fact, Murong Yu's reaction seemed to verify the correctness of Li Weiwei's words.

"How do you know?" Murong Yu asked.

Such a question proves that what Li Weiwei said is true.

Li smiled slightly: "Didn't I say it, I guessed it all, I didn't expect the senior to admit it so quickly."

"Hmph..." Murong Yu snorted again, and in just a few minutes, he was slightly deceived by Li twice in a row.Maybe he hasn't had this experience in decades.

"Of course, guessing requires capital. I was thinking, if Maoxiangzhu is really in the hands of seniors, I don't think seniors will be so risky and let the rumors out. There are many capable people and strange people who come to look for Maoxiangzhu. , Senior shouldn’t ignore these people.”

Murong Yu shook his head: "You're wrong. I, Murong Yu, really didn't pay attention to these people. But since you've come, you've passed the test by finding this place. If you want to know the whereabouts of Mao Xiangzhu, Just follow me."

Saying that, Murong Yu turned around and walked away.It was only then that I discovered that he had an extra thick bamboo stick in his hand, like a cane, crooked but tough, and it was a tool he used to find the way.

The old man really has bad eyesight, isn't this just the cane often used by the blind.

However, Murong Yu's walking speed was not slow. There were grave bags all over the cemetery here, and he could easily walk among them.

Li Weiwei and I looked at each other, Li Weiwei pouted in the direction Murong Yu was walking, and we decided to follow.

"Don't idle your hands, help me hold those two dolls."

We were just about to leave when we heard the voice of Murong Sturgeon.

Obviously the two dolls he was referring to were the two fire-eyed kappa in front of the tomb.Li Weiwei and I had no choice but to pick up the doll and follow.

Fortunately, the two kappa became very light after exchanging air with the tomb, and it didn't take much effort for us to pick them up and walk.

Murong Yu walked briskly in front of him and recognized the road very accurately, even better than the two of us with eyesight. This also made me wonder if there is any problem with his eyes?

Li Weiwei and I hugged a kappa and followed behind. We still had to walk fast to keep up with Murong Sturgeon's footsteps.
