    Shao Ling stared silently at the sudden darkness in front of him, contrasting with the paintings he had experienced before. If the darkness before him were all dramatic, then everything in front of him was a little frighteningly real.

    The pale moonlight makes it possible to vaguely see the grave heads and stone tablets on this cemetery. I don’t know what birds will occasionally make strange crowings that have never been heard before. Underneath is a hillside road with a deep foot and a shallow foot. The child cried faintly among the grass.

    In the nasal cavity is the peculiar smell of the mountains, from plants, soil, mountains and rocks, and these ancient steles.

    "When I was working in Beijing," Li Xiaochun said suddenly, "I heard old Beijingers talk about who is'dead', and just said'I heard the cricket call to go'. I didn't quite understand it at first. Understand that there are many crickets in the graveyard of Daqinger."

    Shao Ling did not rush forward, but temporarily stopped at a place slightly far from the grave: "It's getting dark too fast."

    "Aren't all the abnormalities in the painting?" Li Xiaochun accepted the abnormality of the painting so quickly.

    "No, the day and night have a certain pattern in the past. Even if the day is only four short hours, the world will only'turn off the lights' after four hours," Shao Ling took the painting "Inverse Journey" as an example. , "But the darkness in this place was sudden, like...man-made."

    Li Xiaochun didn't say a word. He thought that the thing that made it dark cannot be "man-made", and that it must be "heavenly" to do it.

    Li Xiaochun is not afraid of being fake in the grave circle, but his life outside for many years tells him that even if he is timid, don’t let others see it-it’s not to beware of Shao Ling, but that he has been used to some Aspect hides one's own nature.

    Li Xiaochun stood calmly beside Shao Ling pretendingly, listening to the crickets in his ears, his heart was up and down, and his eyes couldn't help but look randomly. This look made him unable to help himself. He has developed it over the years. The habit was broken in an instant—"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

    Shao Ling barely maintained her composure: "What are you shouting?"

    Li Xiaochun stammered: "You have something on your back and behind."

    Shao Ling took two steps forward vigilantly, and then suddenly turned her head back. Sure enough, she saw a long tail-like red flame. What's more terrifying was that the flame followed him, and when he moved, the fire followed.

    Shao Ling gasped, staring motionlessly at the strange red fire.

    Li Xiaochun backed away in fright, Shao Ling hurriedly said: "Don't move, it will follow you if you move it."

    "This...there is also feudal superstition in this painting..." Li Xiaochun only felt that his calves had turned muscles, and at the moment he had no strength to move. "Mr. Shao, this...Is this a ghost fire?"

    "The scientific argument should be phosphorous fire," Shao Ling watched as the fire slowly weakened. "We are in a chaotic grave. Naturally, there will be some bones that are not completely decomposed. These things may produce phosphine and phosphine. The ignition point is very low and it is likely to spontaneously ignite in summer."

    "But, ghost fire, no, why can phosphorous fire follow people?" When Li Xiaochun was a child, he had personally seen ghost fires following people in the village, scorching people.

    "Because, when walking, the air velocity around the feet is high and the pressure is low." Shao Ling said a little jerky, "My science is average, which is probably what I mean."

    Li Xiaochun stared at the phosphorous fire steadily and gradually extinguished, as if he could not fully convince Shao Ling's "scientific truth" unless he saw the fire extinguished.

    I don’t know, instead of extinguishing the fire, a lot of small sparks suddenly exploded when it was about to burn out, and then it burned into a big ball, like a basketball, half suspended in the air, and a piece of it hanging down below. Fire like a tail.

    Li Xiaochun was completely shocked, and twisted his thigh fiercely. I really hope that I would wake up in the exhibition hall of the Niansu Art Museum. Who knows that the terrifying ghost fire is still hanging there, Li Xiaochun Sa Yazi jumped to Shao Ling's side: "Mr. Shao Shao Shao, this this this..."

    Shao Ling took a few steps back, but stared at the ghost fire in front of him. Based on this strange burning phenomenon, it can be basically concluded that this is not phosphine burning, but...

    "Mr. Shao Shao," Li Xiaochun tried to calm himself, "Did you say that this ghost fire made the sky dark?"

    "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon," Shao Ling stared at the abnormally red flame, and realized that after staring for a long time, he could gradually see the burning core inside through the flame, which is a large bone. "It is indeed The bones are burning."

    "What story is burning?" Li Xiaochun asked boldly.

    "The bone remnants are the bones of the people left after the corpse decayed or cremated." After Shao Ling said this, he suddenly found that the burning bone remnants became clearer, and even the remnants of the bone could be seen, as if it were It was caused by being beaten with a heavy tool, "This bone does not seem to be caused by rot or cremation."

    "What caused that?" Li Xiaochun also saw the burning bone, which seemed to be trying very hard to show its incompleteness.

    "I think it is caused by a blow, and it is not a sharp thing like a knife or axe, but like a hammer or a wooden stick." Shao Ling analyzed.

    Li Xiaochun felt that this incident was too evil, and could not help but brave himself loudly: "This is Zhuxian Town, and General Zhuhai is buried here! General Zhuhai has become a fairy, why dare to have these evils? Strange things are causing trouble!"

    The group of ghost fire suddenly "banged" and the group of fire became bigger and bigger.

    Shao Ling thought of what Li Xiaochun said just now, Zhu Xianzhen, Zhu Hai, the bones that were attacked by heavy weapons, Jin Bi.

    Jin Bi.

    "Are you Jinbi?" Shao Ling said.

    The ghost fire stopped in the air, almost the same height as Shao Ling's face. The fire light no longer moved around, but was almost still there.

    "Are you the ‘screaming general’ Jinbi?" Shao Ling said again.

    Some small flames were dropped from the wildfire rusty, and the bones in the center almost glowed.

    "Are you wronged?" Shao Ling asked.

    The ghost fire was still falling, as if there was an invisible ghost weeping in tears.

    "This is Jinbi's ghost?" Li Xiaochun asked carefully.

    "should be."

    "Why don't the ghosts appear in this big night?" Li Xiaochun said.

    "Historically, the story of "Stealing Talisman to Save Zhao" is being passed on by the common people, making it difficult for some souls to gather and form, but they are unwilling." Shao Ling said, looking at the ghost fire.

    "Is it like what we just analyzed, Zhu Haizhi killed Jinbi because he was loyal to his master Xinlingjun, Jinbi doubted it, and was also loyal to his master Wei Wang?" Li Xiaochun figured out the truth. Not as scared as before, "So, Jin Bi feels wronged?"

    Shao Ling looked at the ghost fire that kept dropping flames: "Well, can you show up? Or use your way to tell your grievances, if we can help you, we will spare no effort."

    The ghost fire actually slowly moved away from Shao Ling and the two of them, towards the far side of the cemetery.

    "It, can it be gone?" Li Xiaochun didn't believe it himself.

    "It's probably going to figure out a way to communicate with us." Shao Ling said.

    "President Shao, what did you mean by the ‘screaming general’?" Li Xiaochun asked.

    "Jin Bi was a battle-tested veteran general of the Wei State before his death. He was called the ‘wow huh’. The word ‘wow huh’ means sturdy and brave, and the word ‘old general’ means a veteran.” Shao Ling said this, with regret in his tone.

    "That is to say, Jin Bi was not buried after his death, and now only this bone is left?" Li Xiaochun said.

    Shao Ling didn’t know how to answer. It seemed like this. Jin Bi, a veteran, was killed by a forty catty hammer. He probably failed to leave his body. There were battlefields everywhere at the time. It seems that he was not buried, even in a cloak. None, so I feel wronged.

    Shao Ling was thinking. Suddenly, the flames flickered, and a group of flaming wildfires drifted in. Then there were dozens of groups of large and small wildfires. These wildfires floated in front of the two of them. The core is a piece of bones of different sizes and shapes! The only thing they have in common is that the edges of all bone remnants have marks of being crushed by heavy objects.

    Dozens of ghost fires slowly gathered together and became a big flame like a bonfire. Dozens of bones were put together in the center of the big flame to form an incomplete human skeleton.

    Li Xiaochun couldn't speak for a long time. At this time, he was a little scared, and he felt a little unclear.

    Shao Ling's expression is very complicated, and it took a long time to say: "You want us to help you, revenge?"

    The big flame stopped there, motionless.

    Shao Ling can only continue to guess: "Then you are, want to be safe?"

    The big flame moved only slightly.

    Shao Ling followed this train of thought and continued to ask: "Do you want your body to be intact and safe?"

    The big flame trembled violently, shaking off dozens of clusters of flames.

    For a time, the big flame burned extremely brightly, as if to light up the sky.

    The sky is really bright.

    The night just now was like a short dream, like a hysterical dream from a nap and nap.

    But those skeletal colonies are still there. In the weeds between the graveyards, dozens of incomplete skeletal colonies are put together into one shape. If they are carefully identified, it should be a personal shape.

    Li Xiaochun didn't seem to wake up from the situation just now. At this time, he patted his face: "Is it true just now, or is it the dream Jin Bi entrusted us to?"

    "Don't care whether it is true or dream, what we have promised, we have to find a way to accomplish it." Shao Ling said.

    "His bones at the time were all broken into scum. Mr. Shao, you just said that it is the Ming Dynasty and it has been many, many years since the Warring States Period. Those bones cannot be retrieved." Li Xiaochun said, looking around. , I want to use something to replace the bone better.

    "If he can find it back, he doesn't need to use the ghost fire to pray for us to help." Shao Ling thought carefully, always feeling that this matter will not make the two of them look for a needle in a haystack, but will have an established trajectory.

    "Let’s take these bones out of the weeds first." Li Xiaochun said and did it. First, I found a stone tablet that fell on the ground, swept the soil away with a sleeve, and then moved the weeds. Every piece of bone remnant was carefully taken out and put on the stone tablet piece by piece. The whole process was very serious, for fear that even one piece was misspelled.

    Shao Ling watched Li Xiaochun doing all this, still thinking about the replacement of bones.

    "President Shao! There is something under these bones!" Li Xiaochun suddenly shouted.

    Shao Ling hurried over to look and saw that there was something like a square checkerboard on the weeds under the bones, but there was no checkerboard on it, but some sand, which looked like a modern sandboard.

    Shao Ling couldn't think of the reason for a while, so he wrote a word on the sand table.

    Li Xiaochun recognized it for a long time: "This is a bone character, it looks like an ancient way of writing. From this look, this character looks like a person standing there, with head, body and limbs."

    "This is seal script," Shao Ling smoothed out the sand character she had just written, and wrote another word.

    I don’t recognize the word Li Xiaochun. The outside is a big square, and inside is something that looks like a letter: "Why is there a letter r in this big mouth?"

    "This is not a letter, it's a divination, the divination of divination." Shao Ling explained, "This is the hieroglyph of the character ‘bone’, because the shamans used bones for divination."

    As soon as Shao Ling finished saying this, she saw the sand characters in the sand table suddenly glowing. When the light dissipated, Shao Ling tried to poke the sand away and found that there was a bone full of witch characters buried in the sand.

    It's a pity that Shao Ling doesn't recognize any of the words on it.

    "What is this?" Li Xiaochun asked.

    "This is a primitive bone, or a bone with primitive meaning." Shao Ling personally placed this bone in the bone remnants placed on the stone tablet. "I don't know if this bone can help. we……"

    Before Shao Ling finished speaking, he found that the bones on the stele changed rapidly, and even new growth occurred on the damaged edge. After a while, a complete skeleton appeared on the stele—the stele at this time. I can't put down the entire human bone anymore. The leg bones of the skeleton are on the ground next to the stele.

    "Are we spelled together?!" Li Xiaochun was a little unbelievable, and looked down at this magical sand table, only to find that the word "month" appeared on it somehow.

    Shao Ling walked over and saw the word, and said unconsciously: "It seems that this is for us to help the bones to find'meat.'

    The author has something to say:

    [Yueyue Notice] This story is the shortest, and it feels like there is nothing left to write. The next chapter will be the next set.

    Shao Ling: "..."

    Li Xiaochun: "Mr. Shao, why did the comment area disappear as soon as we caught up with us? Did the audience leave with stools..."

    Shao Ling:...
