Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

The old man's voice was hoarse, but everyone present felt his hidden sadness.

Chu Ning saw Er Lahong who was silent beside her. The corners of her mouth, which always had a warm smile, were tightly pursed at the moment.

Chu Ning reached out and held Er Yao Hong's arm. Er Yao Hong came back to her senses and found Chu Ning looking at her worriedly, so she shook her head to show that she had improved.

Zhang Qishan asked the old man.

"With such a decisive act, did the Japanese really discover something?"

The old man did not give an accurate answer, but continued to tell, "We dug a tomb passage and kept digging... and we did dig into the tomb chamber."

Zhang Qishan instantly collected the information in the old man's words and formed a conjecture in his mind.

"It should be because of this tomb."

Although it was a question, what Zhang Qishan said was affirmative.

The old man was silent, seeming to be recalling specific details.

Qi Tiezui speculated with a solemn expression on the reason for his uncle's adventure.

“The second master’s great-uncle sneaked into the tomb in order to stop the Japanese.

Maybe it was because the situation was too urgent and there was no help around, so the soldiers took risks. "

"That day, the Japanese supervisor came to the tomb..."

The old man seemed to be calming down as he spoke. He paused for a while and then spoke slowly.

"Senior picked up the explosive bag and blew up the Japanese leader.

At the same time, the entire mine tunnel was blown up. "

Zhang Qishan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After hearing this, he became more determined to prevent the Japanese from getting the things in the tomb.

Chu Ning's clear voice reached the old man's ears, "Senior, he sacrificed his life and forgot about death. It is really respectable and admirable."

Er Laohong raised her eyes, leaned forward with her arms on her legs, and crossed her hands. She had obviously been thinking deeply just now.

"What then?"

"Later...after I woke up, I never saw Senior again."

Qi Tiezui felt a trace of optimism and comforted the old man and Er Laohong, "I guess they took advantage of the chaos and escaped."

After Qi Tiezui finished speaking, he glanced at Er Laohong, even though he already knew that his great uncle was dead.

However, this did not directly mention the death of my great-uncle, hoping to make the two of them less painful.

Chu Ning looked at the dirty miner's clothes on his body and asked the old man softly.

"Could it be that the Japanese are angry with you just because my uncle did this?"

The old man heard the young man's words and thought that he was also a half-grown child back then, so he couldn't help but slow down his voice.

“The mine tunnel was blown up, and the Japanese were furious and arrested all the living people.

The foreman was called the 'culprit' by the Japanese supervisor, and he was the first to be stabbed. "

Er Laohong's face was full of anger, she stood up and punched the wooden support.

"At that time I thought I was dead, but who knew, the Japanese just stabbed my eyes blind."

Chu Ning knew that the old man was taking care of him and did not speak out about the cruelty he saw.

But Chu Ning knew that none of the remaining miners were spared, and all suffered inhuman treatment.

You can tell just from the corpse in the mine outside with mucus flowing all over its body...

Qi Tiezui stood up angrily, "Huh?! These damn Japanese!

Lord Buddha, Xiao Ning! We really guessed it! "

"Did that explosion disturb anything inside the mine?"

Zhang Qishan subconsciously classified the unknown objects in the mine as "living" and grasped the key points.

After all, the old man was old and suffered serious injuries. His body swayed slightly in the chair.

Chu Ning hurriedly supported the old man, "Are you okay? Do you want to go to the bed and take a rest?"

The old man felt the heat from Chu Ning's palm as he held his arm, and groped for the back of Chu Ning's hand.

But he immediately took his hand back and said, "Thank you. You are as good a person as him."

Then the old man continued the topic, "After that explosion, that voice has been screaming in the mine."

Chu Ning frowned, patted the old man on the back, and continued.

“The reason they destroyed your eyes was to make your hearing more sensitive.

Finally, it is convenient for you to be keenly aware of the sound and remind them, right? "

Chu Ning's voice was soft, but it reached everyone's ears.

Zhang Qishan was surprised by Chu Ning's extraction and analysis of information.

Qi Tiezui and Er Laohong felt very disgusted when they heard that the Japanese were perverted and took human lives to warn themselves.

Adjutant Zhang leaned against the pillar with his arms folded, his expression also very indignant, and he looked at the old man with unbearable eyes.

The old man nodded, "They blinded us in order to hear the sound and then come over to notify them and serve as their outpost."

Zhang Qishan sighed, and then solemnly apologized to the old man.

“Old man, you have suffered.

I've offended many people before, and I'm really sorry. "

The old man was very considerate and said, "It's okay, I often don't know where I am.

If it suddenly appears in front of you, it will inevitably scare you. "

"Old man, how did you survive?" Qi Tiezui was more concerned about the old man's survival at the moment. Although he had a guess, he still asked.

In fact, Qi Tiezui didn't want to know for himself, but told Zhang Qishan and Er Laohong that his own small family only relied on a fortune teller.

If they go out, they will inevitably not be able to take care of the old man. If Zhang Qishan and Er Laohong hear about the old man's dire situation, they can also help him.

Chu Ning looked at Qi Tiezui, and Qi Tiezui nodded slightly to Chu Ning. Chu Ning somewhat understood what Qi Tiezui meant.

I just feel that Master Ba is actually the most thoughtful person here, and he has already begun to make arrangements for the old man's escape.

“After we were blinded, the Japanese wanted to kill us all, so I hid deep in the mine.

I've been hiding here and escaping like this.

I came out after the Japanese left. I didn't want to go home and cause trouble to others, so I stayed here.

I have been squatting until now. "

Zhang Qishan promised the old man just as Qi Tiezui and Chu Ning expected.

"Don't worry, old man, we will definitely take you out."

"Thank you."

The old man spoke softly, and today he finally said what he had been holding in his heart for so many years.

It can be regarded as living up to my brother’s request...

Zhang Qishan heard that there seemed to be no sound outside, so he wanted to ask the old man to lead the way.

"By the way, do you remember how to get past that arch you mentioned before?"

Chu Ning suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhang Qishan, with deep sadness hidden in his eyes. It turned out that this was the fate of the old man.

This is a dead end. The old man who leads the way will die, but those who don’t lead them will also die...

Zhang Qishan didn't know why the child was so excited, but he still wanted to ask later.

"Remember." The old man replied.

Zhang Qishan suppressed the doubts about Chu Ning in his eyes and asked the old man to confirm, "Is it written on the arch, 'Those who enter this door must give up some hope.'"

"Lord Buddha, you know this." The old man was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Zhang Qishan to know a lot.

Zhang Qishan nodded, "Yeah." Then he continued.

"We still have to keep walking. I wonder if the old man is willing to lead the way?"

Zhang Qishan respected the old man's information, but Chu Ning's hand holding the old man's arm tightened a little.

He hoped that the old man could survive, but the old man had been waiting for people from the Nine Sects to come here to find out the truth for so many years. How could he refuse?

Sure enough, the old man's low and hoarse voice sounded.

"I've been waiting so long for this day."

Zhang Qishan said sincerely again, "Thank you."

Chu Ning asked the old man, "Even if this day comes, will you... go to death?"
