Chapter Four, Millennium Remains.

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

He Zheren politely declined, saying, "The journey to the Bao Wang Mountain is over a thousand miles away. It would be disrespectful to bring the ancestral remains of the Bao tribe by car. Therefore, the old man and the young witch will travel on foot. It will be a very arduous journey, crossing mountains and hills. I'm afraid you may find it difficult to endure."

"May I ask how to address you, brother?" Wei Liuchan asked with a bow.

After the cremation and burial, He Zheren crawled out of the tomb, looking at Fei Shu with moist eyes, and couldn't help but sigh deeply, "Xiao Wu, today you have finally fulfilled my decades-long wish."

Everyone fell silent, and no one spoke for a while.

Oh, they also came here to stay overnight," Mr. He introduced.

Come in. He led the old man through the courtyard and directly into the living room.

Go to someone else's house. Mr. He immediately turned his head and went back to his own house.

Uncle Fei soaked in warm water in a wooden basin, while Ke'er's soft fingers scratched and tickled him. This reminded him of the pleasant time he had in Shenzhen when he went to a hot spring. Alas, humans really know how to enjoy.

Ker, it's up to you. Secretary Xing has always been very caring towards Ker.

He Zheren gave a bitter smile and said, "There's no way to deal with these two crazy patients, so I have no choice but to agree."

He Zheren jumped into the coffin and knelt beside the bones, gently prying open the skull's mouth, and took out a long tooth from the upper jaw, examining it closely in the moonlight. In an instant, his expression suddenly changed, then he bowed down and prostrated himself on the ground, muttering incessantly in his mouth.

How tragic... Ke'er whispered.

After pondering for a moment, He Zheren slowly said, "The coffin was not tightly closed just now. It seems that Li Yin had already broken out of the tomb and fled into the world, so Xiao Wu was unable to smell the stench of the 'Gu person'. Only the scent of the 'corpse worms' of Da Luomo remains in the tomb."

Yes, Lao He, we won't feel lonely as we travel together," Secretary Xing chuckled.

Old He brought a wine glass and filled it up for the elderly person.

In ancient times, the Bo people had a custom of tooth filing. They would drill a hole in one of their upper lateral incisors and insert a dog's canine tooth. That's it. He Zheren opened his palm, revealing a brownish-yellow tooth with a sharp dog's tooth clearly set in it. "Moreover, the legendary Daluo Mo of the Bo people is short in stature and is a dwarf."

"Da Luomo willingly went to his death," Secretary Xing asserted, "According to the dialectical law of causality, only the death of the practitioner can lead to the birth of the 'Gu person.' This can explain why the shigu technique of the Bo people did not survive."

"That's right," Secretary Xing praised, "this coffin was specially made for two people. So, it seems that the Medicine King Sun Simiao buried both the 'Gu person' Li Yin and the great witch doctor of the Bo ethnic group at the same time. But why did Da Luomo choose to die with him?"

How do you determine that this is Dalomo? Secretary Xing raised a question.

Hmm, this pig is drinking alcohol... Wei Liuchan looked at the little witch with surprise.

Is this still a child?

Dong dong dong... The wooden door sounded even louder.

That evening, Mr. He served a hot copper hot pot, with steam rising and a strong aroma of spicy and numbing flavors filling the room.

Secretary Xing was puzzled and asked, "Lao He, what's wrong with you?"

Mr. Hao did not expect that Secretary Xing turned out to be a heavy drinker. Despite his efforts, he has already finished several bottles of alcohol.

Quietly, only the gentle mountain breeze brushes by. In the distance, the rooster has already crowed three times, and dawn is approaching.

If this skeleton belongs to the great witch doctor of the Bo people in the Tang Dynasty, then where did the "Gu people" go?

During breakfast, He Zheren told everyone that he was planning to go to the Black Hat Peak of the Bimo Mountains in Xingwen County, Yibin, with Xiao Wu to return the bone relics of Daluo Mo to their hometown. They were able to successfully find the "Gu People's Tomb" last night, and Secretary Xing played an important role in this, so he allowed the two of them to stay in the old house during their journey.

"Mental hospital?" Secretary Xing was stunned for a moment.

Okay, it's best to walk there, so we can fully enjoy the scenery along the way.

In the hazy moonlight, there lies a skeletal remains the size of a child, with a large skull, smooth protruding forehead bone, sunken eye sockets, and a row of uneven teeth, appearing extremely bizarre.

Ker hugged Little Wu and chuckled when she heard the words, "Strange old man, what mental illness? Are you saying we have 'insanity'?"

In the middle of Panlong Mountain, one can vaguely see a short and fat figure standing quietly on a mound, silently gazing at the newly dug grave. After a while, he looked up at the night sky and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Uncle Fei burped, thinking to himself that there was a faint familiar smell emanating from this person's body, which turned out to be the same as the corpse insect smell he had smelled in Panlong Mountain last night!

Inside the coffin, apart from the remains of Dalomo, there was nothing else. It seems that the secret technique of the ancient Bo people for corpse insects is truly irretrievable. He Zheren let out a long sigh, his face filled with extraordinary sadness and sorrow.

Old man He Zheren, a member of the Wen Shi Committee of the Langzhong County Political Consultative Conference, is now retired and enjoys his leisure time at home.

The Bǒ rén Dà Luò Mò's spell is powerful, no one can harm him. "He Zhe said hesitantly.

Everyone packed up for a whole day and prepared to depart early the next morning.

At dawn, everyone returned to the old house by the Blackwater Pond. He Zhe seemed to be in a good mood. After putting away his bag, he went to the kitchen and started to prepare a sumptuous breakfast.

My lord, the name "Mount Bie Wang" sounds very attractive. Shall we go there together for some fun? Ke'er was a little reluctant to leave Xiao Wu behind.

"Alas, who is so rude?" Mr. He angrily pulled open the door latch.

It is very likely that Lomo was murdered." Secretary Xing chuckled twice.

Brother Wei probably hasn't had dinner yet, how about dining together?

"Your Excellency," Ke'er is kind-hearted, and she looked at Secretary Xing pleadingly, "Please use that miraculous 'dialectical method' again to help the old man."

Uncle Fei was also very modest, "Gudugudu" drinking heavily with a flushed face.

Who? he asked, standing in the yard.

My name is Wei Liuchan, and I sincerely request that you, my esteemed brother, stay overnight. The old man's speech is extraordinary and exudes an ancient charm.

It seems that he really has some extraordinary abilities to easily escape from the tomb buried deep underground," Secretary Xing praised with admiration.
