Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous

I guess she was already accustomed to her breathing. Even though her arm was in great pain, I would not move at all and let her lie comfortably.

The more I looked at her pretty face, the more I liked her. He looked forward to waking up every morning and seeing her smiling face. Just when I was fascinated by her, Li Xue suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked into my eyes.

At this moment, we were so close that she could hear my violent heartbeat and feel my burning temperature. I could smell her fragrance and feel her breathing.

She didn't say anything, but blushed, gently pushed me and stood up. I stood up a little embarrassed and said, "I didn't do anything, you came to me by yourself."

"Stop talking, I didn't hear anything, I'm just a little hungry, I want to eat."

I couldn't help but burst out laughing, and in my heart I admired her shyness and cuteness at that moment.

Our movements woke Nanming up. Although the old man was a light sleeper, he could be woken up by the slightest movement. The three of us hurriedly ate breakfast, packed up our things, and walked forward along the mountain path. The mountain path was winding and tortuous, like a piece of soft yellow sand.

It would be fine if it was on a flat land, but it is extremely steep here. Every time you take a step, you have to slide down two steps and up. It is extremely difficult.

Therefore, we were well prepared in advance and brought all the anti-slip equipment. Ropes were wrapped around his feet, knees, hips, elbows, back, and even wrists.

This rope can increase friction, so even if you fall, you won't roll down from the top of the mountain. In addition, everyone brought a mountaineering prop. Li Xue and I each held a small hoe, and Mr. Nan Ming held two similar climbing tools.

When encountering steep slopes or slippery places, you can use a hoe to dig a hole to make it easier for people to stand. In order to ensure Li Xue's safety, I carefully tied her waist tightly to my waist with a rope.

This climbing plan was summed up by Nanming over the years. Although it was difficult, the effect was excellent. After more than two hours, we arrived in front of a tomb.

In front of him was an antique building with flying eaves, brackets, blue bricks and tiles, and doors and windows. At first glance, it looked like an ordinary courtyard.

However, the wall only has a thin layer, and the rest of the wall is embedded in the rock. The height is only about 15 meters. It does not seem to be built for the living, but more like it is prepared for the dead.

There was a huge copper lock on the door. I didn't have the key to open it, but Mr. Nan Ming was very confident. He sighed and said, "When your grandfather gave me this key, I was a little confused. I was not a member of the Chen family, but just one of his guests.

It was not until today that I realized that your ancestor could actually predict the future, and he was indeed a genius at the semi-immortal level! "In the past, the old people who followed Li Banxian were either targeted, killed, or died of old age. Very few of them survived.

Only a hermit like Nanming could find a perfect place to live and continue to live. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

I carefully removed the brass lock and pulled hard, and the heavy wooden door opened.

Unexpectedly, the door was not pitch black as he had expected. Instead, it seemed to have triggered some secret trap. In an instant, the candles around it lit up, emitting a dazzling light.

Li Xue looked outside the door and didn't rush in. She just shouted, "Oh! It's so dark! It's been so long, and it's still glowing. Aren't you afraid it won't last long?"

Nanming smiled faintly: "You two have probably never entered the tomb, so you are so surprised. This is 'mermaid fat', which can burn for a thousand years."

We held our breath and walked in carefully. At first glance, the door was very low and you had to bend down to enter, but it was open inside.

Very big and very tall.

The hall was very large, with a futon on the floor, and the most eye-catching thing was a portrait hanging on the wall.

The man in the portrait looked like an immortal, holding a whisk and wearing a long robe with fluttering sleeves, which made him look quite otherworldly. What surprised me the most was that on its shoulder was a small snow-white animal. At first glance, I almost mistook it for Xiaobai.

Although they are of the same species, there is a big difference between Xiaobai and this white cat. Xiaobai is more docile and more detached from the world. But the white cat in this picture is more evil, and everything he does is annoying, always giving people a feeling of keeping people away.

Now Xiaobai is having so much fun playing with stray cats that he has long forgotten that his lover exists in this world.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but stand in awe. I knelt on the mat and bowed deeply three times to the portrait of my ancestors: "I am a descendant of the Chen family. I am Chen Liu. This is my first time returning home. I would like to pay my respects to all the predecessors."

After the ceremony, when we looked again, the door that had just been opened suddenly slammed shut, scaring the three of us.

Are we really going to be stuck here?

Li Xue raised her hand and was about to open the door, but Nan Ming stopped her in time and said, "Don't worry, this is just an opportunity, and it won't cause any harm to the Chen family."

Although it was also Nanming's first time here, he was busy with his own things and was not interested in other people's things.

It's not that he doesn't care about worldly things, but he has his own persistence in his heart and doesn't covet other people's things. Moreover, he has no children and doesn't need to make plans for future generations. These things will only become a burden to him.

Everyone has his own pursuits. His interest is not in treasure hunting, but in being a Feng Shui master. It is a completely different path from a Feng Shui master. It is precisely because of this that he can shoulder such an important responsibility. If it were someone else, he would have lost it long ago.

Just as the stone door closed, there was a "click" and a huge hole appeared on the floor in front of the futon.

I couldn't help but worry, are there any poisonous snakes, rats or anything like that in there? He walked carefully to the box and took a closer look. There was only a piece of cloth inside. He picked it up and looked at it. It was blank, without any words or pictures.

He thought there would be some treasure or secret method inside, but now it seems that there is nothing. I was very disappointed and wanted to throw it away, but when I glanced at the portrait, I thought of the painstaking efforts of my ancestors and decided not to play tricks on the younger generation like this.

"Senior Nanming, what's the matter with this scroll?" I asked.

Nanming shook his head slightly. "You need to explore the secrets on your own. I am just leading the way."

After saying that, he sat down on the futon tiredly and rubbed his sore thighs, "I can't move easily, so I'll wait for you here. This room only has half an hour, so go and take a look, hurry up."

My heart started pounding at this warning.

You know, in this closed mansion, the air is limited. If it runs out, it will be terrible. I didn't have time to care about Nan Yan, so I took Li Xue away in a hurry.

After an incense stick of time, we came out with a small bag on our backs, and saw Nanming sitting on the futon, and he had passed away quietly. This old man had always been full of energy, and his sudden death surprised Li Xue and me.

Li Xue immediately knelt down and looked at the body with sadness in her eyes. It was a pity that she finally found a good friend and ended so suddenly before she could finish talking.

Fortunately, Nan Ming seemed to be a prophet. He didn't want us to see his demise, so he let us go. He sat cross-legged with a thick medical book in front of him. This was his life's work.

"Hey, everyone is going to die, Xue'er, you have to mourn." Li Xue cried and was more sad than losing a loved one. Alas, I don't even know his biological parents, this sentence can't be said casually, if it is right, it is totally wrong.

I once saw an official coffin in the mansion. At first I didn't understand its meaning, but now I think it should be for Nanming. Just as I was about to put his body into the empty coffin, a lantern on the wall suddenly went out, indicating that time was running out.

I rushed to the coffin storage area at the fastest speed. There were more than a dozen coffins here, all sealed, and only this coffin was empty. As I accelerated, the money lamps around me went out one by one, the lights became dim, and the atmosphere became a little solemn.

I put Nan Ming into the coffin and quickly put a folded shroud on her. In less than five minutes, I felt a little breathless. Time was running out, and he couldn't think too much. The most important thing now was to leave quickly, otherwise...

Li Xue and I closed the coffin together, bowed, and respectfully bowed three times to Nan Ming, and then left in a hurry. I was very nervous now, breathing rapidly, and every step was very laborious.

In comparison, Li Xue was much weaker. If I hadn't hugged her waist and pulled her to the ground, she would have fallen to the ground. Fortunately, the founder of the Chen family was unwilling to leave this last one of mine here.

When we walked to the door, all the lights in the tomb had been turned off, and the door was opened. A gust of cold wind blew in, which made us feel much more sober.

However, the door didn't stay open for long, as if it would close again in the next moment. Without thinking too much, I pulled Li Xue and ran out, looking very embarrassed and scared.

Sure enough, with a "bang", the door behind him closed tightly and shook violently, as if the entire mountain range was shaking.

I tried to push it, but a stone seemed to have fallen from behind the door, blocking my way. Although it was only half an hour, it was enough for us to worship our ancestors one by one, burn three sticks of incense, and kowtow sincerely.
