Taoism moves mountains

Chapter 159 The past is gone

After listening to Jin Abacus' explanation of the history of the ancient Dian Kingdom, Min Gushao and others began to think quietly.

After a while, Min Gushao asked again: "Does Uncle Master know anything about the human geography of southern Yunnan?"

"I have been walking on both sides of the Yellow River all year round and have never been to the south, so I'm sorry." Jin Abacus said apologetically.

After listening to it, Min Gushao felt disappointed.

"However, I remember that Master Zhang once took your master to the Yunnan-Guizhou Highlands. I think your master knows something about it. You might as well go back and ask." Jin Abacus saw Min Gushao's disappointment and quickly added.

"Yeah." When Min Gushao heard this, his expression changed sharply, and then turned into a look of hope.

Next, they traveled for two more days and finally returned to Liaochen's hermitage in Songshan Mountain.

Liao Chen was naturally sad when he saw Jin Abacus. They had parted ways for nearly ten years, and they reunited again after such a long time. He was both happy and sad at the same time.

Why sad?

The last time they met was when their master Zhang Sanlianzi passed away. At that time, their junior brother Tie Motou was still alive, but now he has changed.

He was already over sixty years old when he died, with gray hair. His golden abacus was also in his prime, with a wrinkled face and a gray beard and gray hair.

  Time is like a ruthless carving knife, changing our appearance——[Lyrics drifting by]

Hua Ling'er and Russule Liang went to prepare wine and food to celebrate the successful return from the tomb, and also to celebrate the reunion of Chen and Jin Abacus.

Jiang Yang and Min Gushao followed Chen and Jin Abacus in the living room.

"You have returned successfully from this trip, and your faces are rosy and shiny. You must have got what you wanted, right?" Liao Chen said when he saw the faces of Min Gushao and Jiang Yang.

"Yes, we have indeed collected the complete Dragon Bone Book." Min Gushao replied respectfully, and then glanced at Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang understood and took out the Dragon Bone Book to show Chen.

Liao Chen sighed and said, "I didn't expect that for thousands of years, you were able to do what so many people couldn't do. It seems that this is also your destiny and luck."

The legend of Muchen's Divine Pearl has lasted for thousands of years, and the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book also has many stories. When it was in Li Chunfeng's hands, it was secretly hidden by Li Chunfeng, which made the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book even more mysterious and precious.

It can be said that collecting the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book is the dream of many treasure hunters, but it is very difficult to realize.

After reading the Dragon Bone Book, Liao Chen happily said to Min Gushao and Jiang Yang, "Since you have collected the Dragon Bone Book, I think Muchen's Divine Pearl will be within easy reach."

"Master Liaochen, please don't think too simply. The process of searching for the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book is already arduous and full of difficulties. I'm afraid the ordeal of finding Muchen's Divine Pearl has just begun." Jiang Yang spread his hands and said helplessly. said.

"That's true. It's just that the journey has already begun, so you have to go on, don't you?" Liao Chen asked calmly after nodding.

"What the master said is absolutely true, so when we come back this time, we need to ask for your support." Min Gushao said.

"But it doesn't matter, I will help if I can." Liao Chen replied with a smile.

"Well, we heard from Uncle Jin that you have been to the Yunnan-Guizhou Highlands. Can you tell us about the situation there." Min Gushao spoke without hesitation.

"Oh, does this have something to do with your next step?" Liao Chen had an insight and suddenly guessed the meaning of Min Gushao's words.

Seeing Chen's doubts, Min Gushao told the eight riddles from the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book, and also told things about the ancient Dian Kingdom and the tomb of King Xian.

The more Liao Chen listened, the more surprised he became. By the time Min Gushao finished speaking, he had already fallen into deep memories. Min Gushao and Jiang Yang were surprised when they saw it.

"I also speculated about what he and Master Zhang encountered in the Yunnan-Guizhou Highlands back then. When they came back, they looked abnormal. No matter how I asked, they kept silent." Jin Abacus next to him also recalled.

After a while, Liao Chen sighed heavily, then turned to look at Jin Abacus, and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that thirty years later, that matter would still have to be told."

Jiang Yang was very confused. What could make Colonel Mo Jin timid and worry about it for thirty years?
  "What happened to you back then?" Jin Abacus asked seriously.

Liao Chen glanced at the three people present, and then said while recalling: "I originally thought that I would take this matter to Hades, but since you must go to southern Yunnan, if I don't tell you, I'm afraid you will encounter Unprepared for the dilemma, even life-threatening.

Back then, my master and I were invited to Yunnan and Guizhou. The inviter was a descendant of Sun Guizhou, the southwest king of the Ming Dynasty. He had a treasure map of the Dali royal family in his hand.

We followed the map to search for mountains and rivers, and finally found the location of the treasure.

But because of the handsome appearance of the inviter, he got into trouble. "

"What trouble?" Jin Abacus asked curiously.

Jiang Yang and Min Gushao were equally curious. It felt a little ridiculous to get into trouble because of a person's appearance, and it was a man. It would have made sense if it was a woman.

Since ancient times, there have been many legends about beauties causing disaster and bringing down the country and the city.

"In southern Yunnan, Miao women are not familiar with Han etiquette and complicated etiquette. They don't understand the principle of pretending to be calm on their faces no matter how happy they are. They are particularly charming, lively, and capricious.

We stayed in southern Yunnan for a long time and had to contact the local Miao village.

At that time, a Miao girl fell in love with the inviter and expressed her love in person. However, the inviter had already married and did not accept the Miao girl. Afterwards, the Miao girl cast a poison on the inviter without us noticing. "

"A poison? Does this really exist?" Jin Abacus only heard rumors about the ominous nature of the poison.

It was rumored that Captain Mo Jin's old enemy Guanshan Taibao knew how to use poison, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, so naturally he only believed it.

Jiang Yang felt that poison poison was real, but he couldn't guarantee whether it was so mysterious or mysterious!
  "Gu, the ancients gathered many poisonous bugs together and let them eat each other and kill each other. The last thing left is "gu". Usually it refers to borers, harmful magic, etc." Min Gushao explained on the side road.

“Before that, I didn’t really believe that Gu was so magical, but after seeing it with my own eyes, I really gained a lot of knowledge.

The inviter just wanted to steal the treasure and go home, and he firmly refused the Miao girl's kindness. However, the Miao girl accepted death and refused to marry him. In the end, she committed suicide. As a result, the inviter died at the same time, with no injuries at all on her appearance, and died suddenly like this.

The loyal servant of the inviter wanted to take revenge on the Miao people for avenging the inviter. As a result, he was poisoned and killed by the Miao people during the fight. When he died, his death was very strange. Countless tiny black worms crawled out of the seven holes, all over his body. Not a drop of blood was shed.

That kind of death was simply unheard of and unseen.

If the master hadn't quickly pulled me into humiliation to survive, I'm afraid neither of us would have been able to come back.

Later, after we escaped from the Miao village and inquired again, we found out that the inviter was infected with the 'love poison' and the servants were infected with the bloodthirsty poison.

This is why my master and I vowed never to go south again and kept silent. "

After Liao Chen finished speaking, he took a deep breath, and his expression became much more relaxed, as if the big stone in his heart had been lifted.
