Chapter 3489 Is it the Black Lotus Sect again?
“Hey, where is Xiaoyu?”
Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized something and turned around to look, only to find that Xiaoyu was not beside her.
"Xiaoyu?"
Yang Ruoqing shouted while searching. That day, Risong was about to instruct the two guards to search on the other side when Xiaoyu's voice came from not far away.
"Sister Qing'er, brother, I was here that day."
Looking around, I saw Xiaoyu standing up from a slope over there and waving her hand towards this side.
Yang Ruoqing hurriedly came to Xiaoyu, "You girl, don't run around. There are many tigers, leopards and wolves in the mountains."
Xiaoyu stuck out her tongue and said, "Well, I Don’t run far. But, Sister Qing’er, I found this here.”
She handed something in front of Yang Ruoqing, which was a palm-sized iron plate wrapped in a ball of mud.
"This is..." Yang Ruoqing asked.
“This is the base for placing candles.” Xiaoyu said.
"What then?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
“This base is from the Black Lotus Sect, I recognize it.” Xiaoyu continued.
“Black Lotus Sect?” Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows in surprise, “Are you sure?”
Xiaoyu nodded very firmly, "When I was in the Black Lotus Sect, I used the ones like this in my house. There is a tiny black lotus underneath."
Xiaoyu said, in front of Yang Ruoqing's Scrape off the mud on the iron plate.
After scraping it off, the original shape of the iron plate was revealed, with a depression in the middle and a circle of ruffles on the edge. The base was turned over, and indeed a small black lotus was engraved on it.
"Qing'er, Xiaoyu, what are you looking at?" Risong also came to the two of them that day.
Yang Ruoqing took the iron plate from Xiaoyu's hand, shook it at Narisong and said, "Those lingering tomb robbers are related to the Black Lotus Sect. This is the evidence."
Risong looked at the things in Yang Ruoqing's hands that day, and then at the collapse under his feet. He really couldn't understand how this small piece of iron plate was connected to the Black Lotus Sect?
However, since Qing'er said with such certainty that the iron plate was used by the Black Lotus Sect to light candles, Risong believed that Yang Ruoqing must have his own basis for judgment.
"Qing'er, I'm a little confused. Even if the tomb robbers in this deep mountain and old forest are really from the Black Lotus Sect, what are they doing with this candle tray?"
Narisong again Asked, "Did they come here to set fire to the mountain?"
Yang Ruoqing raised her lips, "They have their own taboos when robbing tombs. They use candles, which is also called 'ghost blowing out lamps.'"
"Ghost blowing out the lamp?" Narisong was surprised.
Xiaoyu also tilted her head and looked at Yang Ruoqing curiously, waiting for her next words.
Yang Ruoqing remembered this question. The last time she, Tang Yazi, Qi Xingyun, and Tuobaling went down to the tomb of the former queen, they opened the coffin to retrieve the items and talked to them about it.
"Ghost blowing out the lamp means lighting a candle in the east, west, north and south corners of the tomb when opening the coffin to retrieve items." Yang Ruoqing said concisely and concisely.
“If the color of the candle’s flame does not change and it does not go out, it means that the object can be retrieved.”
"If the flame of the candle turns into a faint blue and is blown out, it means that the owner of the tomb is angry and must leave as soon as possible."
"And you can't take away half of the objects, otherwise , there will be punishment."
After hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Risong and Xiaoyu were shocked.
"It's too mysterious. Is such a thing really possible?" Narisong asked, wishing he could dig a hole in the ground and jump down to try it himself. Yang Ruoqing raised her lips, "We won't delve into whether there is such a thing for now. This is a rule set by the ancestor of the tomb robbers."
"Right now, our focus is not on this, but we can confirm that people from the Black Lotus Sect have been mixed into the Mianniu Mountain area."
Yang Ruoqing said, raising her finger to point to the large area of collapsed mountain land in front of her. , said: "Judging from these collapsed mountains, there must be a big tomb underneath."
"This also shows that there are not a few tomb robbers in the Black Lotus Sect, which makes people very suspenseful. !" she said.
That Risong's face also became a little more solemn.
“So many people from the Black Lotus Sect have sneaked into our Mianniu Mountain area, but we are not aware of it. This is a bit strange.” He said.
"So many pagans are a threat to our area, like a sword hanging above our heads that may fall at any time." He added.
Yang Ruoqing also nodded slightly, it is indeed a big hidden danger!
Thinking of something, Yang Ruoqing suddenly turned around and looked at Xiaoyu, only to find that Xiaoyu's face was a little pale.
When she looked at Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu also looked up at her. Xiaoyu shook her head imperceptibly and hesitated to speak.
Yang Ruoqing's heart moved, Xiaoyu knew the inside story.
Perhaps it was because Risong and the two guards were here that day, so Xiaoyu had some scruples and didn't want to say anything.
Although Risong was not an outsider that day, it was to Yang Ruoqing.
In Xiaoyu's mind, she doesn't think so. She doesn't want the fourth person to know about her identity as a saint of the Black Lotus Sect.
Yang Ruoqing felt relieved, and nodded gently to Xiaoyu, then turned to Narisong and said: "Maybe there are people from the Black Lotus sect hiding nearby, let's go back to the village first. "
"Today's discovery, let's not talk about it for now, so as not to cause panic and alert others, we must investigate it secretly and then make a long-term plan," she warned.
Na Risong nodded, "I know what's going on. It's important. I won't even say a word to Yaxue." A clear character can do great things!
A few people returned to the village, and everyone in the village was talking about it.
But no one thought about tomb robbing, because from the outside, there was no robbing hole at all.
No, it should be said that the villagers are all laymen in this area, and laymen cannot see the secret.
The villagers all agreed that the reason why the mountain collapsed in large areas was because the birds and animals in the mountain had absorbed the essence of the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon for a long time, so they had aura.
Then they practiced non-stop for hundreds of years, and finally took advantage of the thunderstorm weather a while ago to soar, so the cave where they practiced collapsed...
"Some said it was a tit. , some said it was a tortoise, and others said it was a big python. They said that last autumn, someone Passing by the foot of the mountain,"
"I saw with my own eyes a round thing lying in the middle of the road, with the body in front and back hidden in the thatch on the side."
"The man was curious. I picked up a branch and poked it a few times, and found that the thing was still moving."
"Under the moonlight, the whole body was glowing and there were scales. Only then did I realize that it was a big python. Its body was on the mountain, and its head was stuck in the river at the foot of the mountain to drink water..."
The fourth aunt Liu came running. After arriving at Yang Ruoqing's house, Jili Guala told Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu the rumors she had heard in the village for a long time, as if they were endorsements.
Yang Ruoqing smiled faintly and said: "There are different opinions. If there is really such a big python, what can it do?"
"With a flick of its tail, this house will be blown away. Just listen. "Don't believe it too much," she said.
