Chapter 57: White Paper Wreath
"Why are you calling his name?"
I felt very scared when the name "Si Jingmo" sounded, so I quickly pulled the weirdo and said, "Don't scare me!"
"There is the name of Si Jingmo on the wreath..." The weird man muttered thoughtfully and stopped.
"Then...so what? Are you trying to say that the wronged soul who called you is him?" I couldn't help but look behind me, for fear that I would really follow something strange, "But, what did he call you?"
"No, I'm thinking, we may have misunderstood the meaning of that wreath." The weird man shook his head, "That thing was not prepared for the person 'Si Jingmo'."
"What?"
"I didn't see the wreath. It was the mouse who told us that the name Si Jingmo was written on the wreath, so everyone indirectly thought that the things in the wine cellar warehouse were prepared for this person. I just thought that the wreath was made of white paper, and the only place where I could write was posted on the elegy couplets on both sides." The weirdo thought for a while and guessed, "Mouse has been doing digging dead graves for so many years. He has never really arranged the burial of dead people, so he didn't know that in this funeral industry, there is a rule called 'burning money but not burning names'."
I didn't dare to say anything. When my father passed away, the neighbors in the village helped him to help him. I don't know these rules. The weird guy seems to be specializing in dealing with dead people. They are experts, so I can only wait for his next sentence.
"The wreath is to pay tribute to the dead, but it can only be written on it, not for whom, otherwise the lonely ghosts outside will know the name of the dead, which will affect his way forward." The weirdo said seriously and gave me an example, "For example, if I die, then in my funeral, the elegiac couplet next to the wreath is definitely "Chasing the Old Master to the Eternal Eternal" and finally my child signed the name of "Son: Chao Xiaobao", and the three words "Chasing the Way" will not appear. So if you see a complete name on the wreath, it means that the name is not the dead but the giftee!"
"I'm bah bah bah bah! How do you talk? How can you use your own life and death as a metaphor?" I pushed the weirdo in anger, "I'm still 'Chao Xiaobao', wherever you follow!"
"It's just a metaphor... Anyway, what I mean is that the name Si Jingmo is the one who gave the wreath, and there is another person in the deceased!"
I feel a little relieved to know that this name that makes people panic is not a ghost, but even so, we still don’t know which one of the Si family he is. The character “Jing” in the middle of this person’s name is not the same as the character “Jian” of Scissors. The character “Jian” is lower than the character “Jian” of the word “Jian”. There is only the daughter of Si, but she is too young, so this person should be from the previous generation.
The first thing that comes to my mind is my uncle with scissors.
We don’t know his name yet. Judging from what we know so far, Scissors’ father has “similar” and died, and he is the only one who is still alive in the upper generation.
If there is a wreath, there should be a dead person, but the wreath has not been sent to burn, which means that the person Si Jingmo is going to pay homage to has not held a funeral.
What's the situation?
I felt very sorry that the scissors' butt was opened and the flowers could not enter the mountain with us. Otherwise, if she would tell the Si family's genealogy from beginning to end, we would have a clear understanding of all kinds of doubts.
My fear of Si Jingmo disappeared. Judging from the conversations between Scissors, Si Jianlan and Si Jiancang, this family doesn’t look like someone has just passed away recently.
If he had died long ago and the wreath had not burned, does it mean that the man had not been buried yet?
So what about the corpse?
The weirdo and I stood up without any direction and had no clue, not knowing where we should go now.
This cliff really seems to be as he said, without a turn. After we walk the same path once, we immediately turn our heads and it seems that we can't go back to where we were.
I want to save Master Dong and the other three, I want to find Brother Mouse, I want to know the hidden secrets of the Si family, I want to enter Yuling to reveal the answer to all this, but where should we move forward?
I felt like "drawing the sword and looking around in a daze". I thought about it and brought the topic back to the initial doubt: "Brother Mouse can be summoned to a place by a voice, but you can't. Then what is the sound you hear? It is calling your name? "Chao Wendao, Chao Wendao, come with me" like this?"
"No, it didn't read the name, but... it was just strange. You will know that the person he called was you."
I could not hear anything and could not understand his feelings at all. I imagined that if I was a mouse, someone was calling me, and I could know his direction like an evil person. Then as long as I got down the cliff, I would know where to go with my eyes closed.
When he was in the North Pole, he followed a voice and passed through the strange and complex room settings and arrived in the ice coffin forest. If the mouse heard the call of a god now, then would he be in Yuling now?
The weirdo muttered at a loss: "If there is no map, we may be trapped here forever."
"We actually have the map, but unfortunately we can't understand it. Isn't that rubbing the mark?" Si Jianlan's empty shell appeared in my mind.
I shivered and worried that Dong and the others would come again. I was deeply impressed by the rubbing of human skin. I reached out and gestured a few times. The rough lines I had already remembered.
The difficulty of the picture is that it is not complete, and where the "i" is marked, a ghost road guide is needed.
Therefore, the routes at key locations can only be seen by using ghost road guides. Even if we have a spelling and find the location of "i", then the next...
"There's a door!" I screamed, jumped up suddenly, and flipped my pockets-
With it, the cold and hard touch! The ghost road is in my hands!
This thing was originally on Si Jianlan. He was sucked dry before he could find Yu Ling and died in the spider cave. He left a human skin with rubbings, and his ghost road lead was picked up by us!
When the strange man saw that his eyes were like me, he shuddered. We hurriedly took the strange stone that looked like a concave lens under the sun in the shade of the trees, and it immediately emitted a dazzling light! But the light was too dispersed, completely different from the moonlight at night.
"Find the next place and wait until it's dark?" The weirdo carefully touched the ghost road in his palm and looked around, "Where can we go to meet that rubbing?"
I squatted down, found a branch and wrote on the ground:
There are three "i" on the rubbing, one of which is only half exposed. We used one in the rock formation of Xunshan. This cliff is mixed between Xunshan and the main peak of Kuaiji. Then the next place to use the Guilulu should be not far away!
But we cannot determine where we are in the rubbing. We can't even find the way back. We only know that Kuaiji Mountain is in the west, Xun Mountain is in the east, and Yuling is in the middle.
The view of the map is from north to south, left to south, left to west and right to east. I recalled the moment when I used a big diamond ring to help rats cut the ice coffin. At that time, I could see a curved and shiny golden line when I looked directly at it.
With the only impression, I put the rubbing in the ice coffin right in the position. It seems that the half i is in the lower left corner, and the other two, one is in the middle and the other is on the right.
The weird guy and I stared at the ground for a few times. We found that if we were placed right and combined with the current terrain to see the picture, although we were still confused, we can be sure that the rubbing overlaps with the present. On the left is the main peak of Kuaiji, on the right is Xunshan, and in the middle is this sunken cliff!
In this way, I can figure out why Si Jianlan ran to Xunshan here even though the Si family was clearly living on the main peak? It was because he used the ghost road guide at the i mark on the main peak in the lower left corner, and the ghost road guided him to Xunshan!
Next, he stood on the mountain rock formation that Qinglong Zuanhuai was laid out, and the ghost road guided him to the cliff.
This simple rubbing of the plane actually represents a three-dimensional space. Not to mention how strange the ghost road reflected is, there are also mountains and cliffs, which cannot be easily compared to the opposite side!
To the east of Kuaiji is Xun Mountain. Si Jianlan used a ghost road guide on the top of Xun Mountain. Master Dong also speculated that after entering the cliff, there was at least one chance to use him, so my uncle would kill him. Then, the location of the mountain rock formation is likely to be the i on the far right. At this moment, Chaowendao and I want to set foot on the road to enter Yuling, we have to find where the useless mark in the middle is!
Our mood became a little excited from confusion. The protruding rocks in the mountain rock formation are actually the spire of the Tongtian Tower that extends straight from the cave inside the cliff. This means that the i on the right not only represents the top of Xunshan Mountain, but also represents the middle of the spider cave!
Compared with the two mountains, the cliff is obviously much lower, but the i in the middle is the highest, which means there is no change in the position of the rubbing, only a vertical perspective of God.
After I met the Tower of Tongtian, the three of me and Mr. Dong had already walked a long journey. That direction led to the cliff. After I fell from the entrance of the cave, I had been blindly struggling and struggling for a long time. Although I don’t know the specific location, I always feel that we will encounter the remaining i mark in the end!
Because so far, we have not taken a turn around, and the scene at every step is new, and the size of this cliff is very limited. Even if the headless flies are spinning around, there is always a time when we can walk every corner, not to mention that there should be a different scene around the i mark in the cliff.
The lines on the rubbing are bent into several concentric circles like arrow targets. The place where the ghost road is guided is located at the center of the circle!
Chapter completed!
