Chapter 21 Corpse Words

Xie thanked and rubbed his head embarrassingly: "Actually, what I wanted to say just now, but the master reacted faster than me. Brother Ye, these two holes are very different. The hole on the left is located in the northeast of Gen Palace, while the hole on the right is in the middle. Southwest Kun Palace, according to the Eight Gates of Qimen Dunjia, the opening on the left represents the gate of life, while the opening on the right represents the gate of death. The gate of death is the gate of evil, if you enter by mistake, you will be punished and killed.”

Shu Yi nodded: "It seems that although you are a fake Taoist priest, your knowledge is not in vain." He smiled gratefully and said, "Compared to Mr., it's just superficial." Shu Yi said: "Don't flatter, and you can still see What did you say in one breath." Xie Xi then said seriously: "But the so-called land of birth, land of death, door of life, and door of death are also relative, for example, Yin and Yang, the anode generates Yin, and the place of extreme yin will also become the place of flourishing yang. A place of extreme yang may be a place of pure yin."

"And the two holes in front of us are like one pure yin and one pure yang. I really can't tell what will happen. So these two holes are really not easy to enter." Xie Xie finished speaking in one breath.

Ximen Wuwang was impatient, he said: "According to what you said, why don't we go in and have a look?" Xie Yi looked at Shu Yi, who frowned and fell into deep thought.After a long while, Shu Yi raised his head: "No matter the door of life or death, we must break through. Ximen is right, we must not let go of any clue."

Xie Xie said: "Sir, let me go ahead." Shu Yi said: "No, let me go ahead." Xie Xie was very persistent this time: "Sir, believe me, there must be a trap in the gate of death, and there must be a mechanism to deal with it." I have experience." Shu Yi said: "Well then, be careful."

Xie Xie chose a hole on the left and walked in, Ye Qinghan followed behind him, Shu Yi followed Ye Qinghan closely, Ximen Wuwang broke behind.This hole is much smaller, like a long and narrow corridor, no more than two meters wide.

Xie Xie walked slowly, carefully paying attention to his feet and the walls on both sides.

There was a burst of cold wind blowing in the tunnel, maybe because of the drenching rain just now, the wind was bitingly cold.

After walking about 100 meters, out of the corridor, a square hall appeared in front of everyone. There were oil lamps embedded in the walls on all sides of the hall, but they were all extinguished.Ye Qinghan wanted to see if there was lamp oil, but Ximen Wuwang said: "No need to try, no one has been in this cave for a long time."

Ye Qinghan asked: "Why?" Ximen Wuwang said: "Because there are only footprints of us on the ground, and it is very humid here, and there are no other people's footprints on the soft mud except our own. Judging by the texture of the ooze, no one has been here for at least a year or two."

Shu Yi said: "I believe Ximen is right, he is an expert in trace identification."

Xie Xie said: "There is no way." Shu Yi showed a faint smile on his face: "It seems that this door of life is really a door of death, but how come there are no traps?" Xie shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe they think Both holes may be useful, so no tricks or traps have been laid."

Ye Qinghan said: "Then what should we do?" Shu Yi said: "Go back the same way and go to another cave to have a look."

After a few minutes, they withdrew, returning much faster than they had entered because the road had just been traversed.Xie Xie still walked ahead and entered the cave on the right.

After walking a few steps, Xie Xi stopped.He stretched his left hand back, signaling everyone to stop.He found that the road under his feet was actually paved with bluestone slabs, he said: "Sir, you wait here, let me take a look first." Shu Yi said: "Be careful." Shu Yi also felt that this was unusual, he Pulling Ye Qinghan and Ximen Wuwang back a few steps.

Xie Xie took out an antenna from his body and slowly stretched it until it looked like 1.2 meters three. He gently touched the first bluestone slab, and Ye Qinghan asked: "If there is a mechanism, can you test the strength? ? Without a certain weight, the mechanism may not be triggered." Shu Yi said: "Don't make a sound, it may not work out for others, but he will definitely be able to, we will wait patiently." Xie Xie turned his head: "Shh, Don't talk, or I won't hear you clearly."

Everyone stopped talking, and even held their breath, thanking each piece of bluestone for trying. After walking about a dozen meters, he said, "Come on, I'm determined not to touch the bluestone slab that I sprinkled with white lime." That's it, After walking for about four or fifty meters, the bluestone road disappeared, and the rest of the road was a soft mud road.Thank you and said: "Hey, it seems that someone has been here recently." Ximen Wuwang said: "Huh? Let me see!"

He walked forward, knelt down and looked carefully for a few minutes, and then said: "Someone did come, there should be three or four people, and they are not tall, about 1.6 to 1.7 meters. But..." Shu Yi said: "But what, let's talk." Ximen Wuwang said: "But they seem to be very fat. Looking at the footprints, each of them should weigh about 150 kilograms."

Ye Qinghan said: "I said Ximen, did you read it wrong, where can you find some such heavyweights?" Ximen squatted down again in hopelessness, and stood up again after a while: "Well, it's me Wrong, they weigh about [-] to [-] kilograms, but when they went in, they carried a weight that was about the same as their weight, and when they came out, they came out empty-handed. I was impatient just now, and I didn’t see the footprints when I came out .”

Shu Yi said: "Are you sure about when they entered and exited?" Ximen Wuwang said: "At least a month ago." Shu Yi said: "So no one has entered this cave for at least a month, right? Ximen Wuwang nodded: "Yes." Xie Yi continued to lead the way forward, and after walking more than ten meters, a stone door blocked them, the door was bare and there was nothing.

Shu Yi said: "Thank you, can you open it?" Xie Yi smiled and said: "As long as it is really a door, it can be opened." Xie Yi groped on the wall next to the door, 10 minutes passed, and 10 minutes passed, he Still haven't been able to find the mechanism to open the door.Ximen Wuwang smiled and said: "Little Taoist priest, you are blowing your hair." Xie Xie didn't say anything, he stood in front of the door and thought for a long time.Ye Qinghan said: "Thank you, didn't you just say that there should be an exit from this hole? Could it be behind this door?"

Xie Xie shook his head: "I don't know, but I don't think it should be. Sir, what do you think this door looks like?" Shu Yi said lightly: "Tomb!" His voice was very cold, which made Ye Qinghan and Ximen Wuwang feel that it was a door. His back felt cold, and he thanked him and said: "This door really looks like the entrance of a tomb. I am also surprised. If the inside is really a tomb, there will be no exit. Then where will the exit be?"

Shu Yi said: "Don't worry about it, let's find a way to open this door."

Xie Xie thought for a while, turned around and ran towards the road he came from, and said while running: "You guys wait here, if you see the door open, call me."

Everyone didn't know how Xie Yi ran to the other side to open the door, but Xie Yi returned to the bluestone slab, jumped vigorously on the last bluestone slab, and the stone door opened.

Shu Yi shouted: "Thank you, come back, the door is open." Xie Xie ran back, his face was full of embarrassment.Ye Qinghan asked: "How do you know where the mechanism to open the door is?" He thanked and said: "Guess, just now I paid attention to the bluestone slabs we walked by, there are 82 pieces in total, the person who built this cave should be very knowledgeable My fellow, how could he not understand the principle of ninety-nine returning to one, and why there was an extra bluestone slab, I wondered, could the two bluestone slabs of No.80 be the key to open the door, and I guessed right.”

Shu Yi shook his head: "I remember that you marked the last bluestone board with lime, so you are not afraid of losing your life because of your wrong judgment?" He said gratefully: "You have to try, and I have a way to deal with it." .”

After entering the stone gate, I saw a coffin, but this coffin was very special, very big, about five meters long, three meters wide, one person tall, and without a coffin lid.Next to the coffin, there are stone steps, a total of four steps, and you can just walk up to see the inside of the coffin.

Shu Yi went up first, took out the flashlight from his body, and looked into the coffin, where more than a dozen corpses were piled up in a mess.And the most surprising thing is that the corpse didn't rot, and the face of the deceased could still be seen vaguely.But the smell in here is very bad and disgusting.

Ye Qinghan and the others also stood up, a few flashlights were shot at the corpse, Ye Qinghan screamed: "Ah? It's them?" Shu Yi turned his head and asked: "Do you know them?" Ye Qinghan said: "No , I only know the above four people, they are our missing scouts, but we have a total of five missing, and one of them has a body?" Shu Yi said: "Bring them out, and then you look through Open it and look for it, see if it is pressing on the front."

Shu Yi spoke very ordinary, as if he was looking for an ordinary object.Thank you but almost vomited.

Several people carried the four of them out, Shu Yi said: "Ximen, dead people don't lie, as long as you are careful, you will be able to collect the evidence we want from them. Is one of the corpses in the coffin? If it doesn’t work, go down and search.”

Ximen Wuwang and Ye Qinghan started to get busy, Shu Yi took out a cigarette and lit one, thanking him and said: "Sir, give me one too, the smell here is really unbearable." Shu Yi handed him one , he took the point.

The two squatted down, lighting Ximen Wuwang with a flashlight.Ximen Wuwang inspected the corpses very carefully: "The four people were murdered at the same time. They were all strangled to death a month ago, but they should have been in a coma before they were strangled, because no struggle was found here. When they died, they were more or less malnourished, and there were strangle marks on their hands and feet, so they should have been detained."

Shu Yi said: "The strangle mark on the neck is very thin, it should be a metal thread?" Ximen Wuwang nodded: "Well, it's like a thin wire." Shu Yi nodded and didn't speak any more. Ye Tianhan also came over, he shook his head: "No, one is missing." Ximen Wuwang asked: "What about the corpse?"

Shu Yi said: "Put it back, and we will bury them later. Let's go to the cave on the left again." Ye Qinghan said: "Didn't you already read it just now?" Shu Yi said: "Look at it again , maybe there will be surprises."
