Chapter 80

Geng Erpao’s past sounds really thrilling. In addition to caring about why Geng Erpao was poisoned by corpse, the little demon also began to care about what Geng Erpao said was extremely important to the correct party.

For nothing else, things that can make people like Li Cutezi get by their lives or things that can be fought for by other Taoist sects, must be extraordinary.

But the little demon didn't expect that this thing turned out to be an ancient painting!?

If it is a classic Taoist magic arts or a supreme magic weapon, the little demon still believes that it is an ancient painting!? The Taoist priest is a immortal cultivation, and he needs to use it as an ancient painting!? Should he change his career to become a painter?

"Old man, weren't your eyes blurry at that time? Is it sure it was an ancient painting?" The little demon was very suspicious.

Geng Erpao slapped his thigh: "How could it be impossible to see clearly? Li Crooked lost his life for this thing. None of my brothers survived, so I can see clearly."

Geng Erpao narrowed his eyes and said, "That thing is wrapped in a silk satin, wrapped in kraft paper, it looks like a scroll. There is a seal on the outside of the satin, which I can't open, but after being kept in the tomb for so many years, the satin has been a little damaged. It can be seen that it is a typical Chinese painting mounting. I used to work as a friend in a calligraphy and painting shop in my early years, and I still have some knowledge in this regard."

"Oh." The little demon nodded and said, "What about?"

Geng Erpao sighed: "Then? Then it's very simple."

According to Geng Erpao, after leaving Wolong Corps, Geng Erpao did not dare to return to Lucheng immediately. Instead, he found a mountain village nearby, lived for two days, bandaged the wound, and then he found Zhenwu Temple in a mountain one night as Li Crook told him before.

That Taoist temple was a grand view with a lot of incense. There were many Taoist priests. Geng Erpao told the Taoist priest to find a person named Zhang, and said that he was asked by Li Crook to send something to him. Then the Taoist priest led him to a yard behind the Taoist priest.

Geng Erpao did not face the Taoist priest. He stood outside the door and the Taoist priest sat in the room. The two of them talked through the door and window. Geng Erpao simply told the matter, and the Taoist priest accepted the words and gave him five hundred dollars.

Geng Erpao went down the mountain with the money.

"Old man, you didn't see that person with your own eyes?" Xiao Yao felt that Geng Erpao was a bit slutty.

Such an important thing, even the man handed over it?

Mr. Geng obviously saw Xiao Yao’s thoughts and said, “Although I didn’t see the Taoist priest with my own eyes, I could tell from the conversation with him that the man did know Li Cutezi, and he had a lot of relationships. What I did was to follow Li Cutezi’s previous instructions, so I didn’t care about so much.”

"How does that person feel?" Xiao Yao was very interested in this Taoist priest named Zhang.

"How do you say it?" Geng Erpao scratched his head and said, "This Taoist priest is not old from his voice. I guess he is only thirty-four years old. But judging from his style, such a big Taoist temple, hundreds of Taoist priests, is obviously very high in status! Moreover, his voice is extremely majestic, very impressive."

After Geng Erpao returned from Zhenwu Temple, he returned to Lucheng. Before he could make a stop, he was stopped by several familiar brothers, saying that a group of mysterious people had asked about his whereabouts in the past two days.

Geng Erpao was not a fool, so he immediately determined that the group must be Li Crook's opponents, and he would be in danger of staying in Lucheng again. Therefore, after leaving Lucheng, Geng Erpao joined a group in a mess halfway. When he became Qiu Ba, he had the ability to know the skills and read the words and avoided his life in war, so he climbed up step by step and finally reached the point where he is today.

"When I was arranging my work, I took the initiative to come to Lucheng. Nothing else, it was because of this incident back then." Geng Erpao put down his wine glass and his eyes were red: "Because of me, my five brothers died tragically below, I confiscated my bones! If I don't do this, I will never feel at ease for the rest of my life."

"At that time, there were construction everywhere, so I asked someone to report that I would build a shooting field in Wolongling, and chose to excavate the foundation in the site of the ancient tomb, and then said that the ancient tomb was discovered. The province immediately organized relevant personnel to excavate, but unexpectedly, the excavation result was far beyond my expectations."

After Geng Erpao said this, he turned to the study room on the second floor. He didn't have much time, so he took out a stack of black and white photos and placed them in front of the little demon.

The stack of photos has turned yellow and mottled, but you can clearly see what you discovered back then.

"The tomb above still maintains its appearance back then, with almost no changes, but the one below is very strange."

"I was worried that the zombie was still inside, so I specially arranged a platoon of fully armed troops to arrive at the scene. However, after the archaeologists opened the tomb, they found the corpses of Xiao Roddler and others in the main coffin, but the shadow of the zombie was not seen. Later, when cleaning up, a corpse was found in a corner of the tomb. It was dark all over, but three corpses were accompanied by. Archaeologists judged from the ornaments on their bodies that the former should be the owner of the tomb, and the latter three were tomb robbers."

"I thought about it and thought it was possible that after I left, Li Crook's opponents went to the ancient tomb again. After discovering the lower tomb, they also entered. As a result, they were attacked by zombies. The three Taoists died at the hands of zombies."

"Afterwards, I buried the bones of several brothers, and archaeologists also excavated a large number of burial objects, which caused a sensation at the time."

Geng Erpao looked at the photos and suddenly said to Xiao Yao: "Little Yao, why didn't the zombie climb up to chase me when I escaped from the tomb? If he did, I would definitely be dead."

The little demon smiled and said, "Do you think he doesn't want to chase you? He just can't."

"How do you say this?"

"It's very simple. The Taoist priest in the tomb above must know the tomb below, and he must know that there are zombies inside, so he built a tomb above. If the evil formation he arranged is generally guaranteed to be effective for ten years, but the formation is maintained by evil spirits. What about ten years later? The evil formation is arranged on a large tomb of the Han Dynasty, and the endless evil spirits below naturally provide support, so it can be operated all the time. On the contrary, if the zombie wants to crawl out, it must face the evil formation arranged by the Taoist priest. Although the evil formation has been cut off the silver line and has lost its effect on people, the formation is not messy and the talisman has not moved, so it still has great power to zombies. How dare zombies crawl out?"

"Oh." Geng Erpao finally understood.

The old man looked at the photos and sighed: "Over the years, this incident has always been like a huge rock in my heart. It always makes me sleepless at night, and the more I think about it, the more strange it becomes. So since I returned to Lucheng again, I have been using various relationships to find out what is hidden behind this matter."

"Is there any result?" The little demon suddenly became interested.

The old man nodded and shook his head again: "The first thing I did was to dig the ancient tomb, and I also said it. This excavation can only confirm that Li Crook's opponents had also gone down, but they obviously did not get the ancient painting at this time."

"So if you want to thoroughly figure out the whole story of this matter, you must find the clues related to the ancient painting." Geng Erpao said: "This matter is quite complicated to sit down. The first thing is to find out where Li Crooked Zi came from. Although I was very familiar with him back then, I didn't know his background. I have been busy for several months, and even crossed provinces to find some of his case, but there was no result. After all, many years have passed, and there is very little information left. If you want to find a Taoist priest in Zhengyi, you will undoubtedly find a needle in a haystack."

"Then I decided to check the Zhenwu Temple." Geng Erpao said: "That Zhenwu Temple is one of the largest Taoist temples in Lucheng before the liberation, so there is a lot of information."

"This Zhenwu Temple was built in the Ming Dynasty. It was extremely popular in the Qing Dynasty to the liberation. In the year when the accident happened, there were 215 Taoist priests in the temple, and there were more than a dozen surnamed Zhang among them. However, after careful examination, I was excluded by these people because they did not meet the requirements of the Taoist priest named Zhang I had seen in terms of identity, age, etc.."

"This is not necessarily the case. I won't talk about my age. I'm hard to say about my identity. Awesome people are probably without identity. The most powerful person in Shaolin Temple is the sweeping monk." The little demon interrupted.

Geng Erpao smiled and said, "I naturally know what you said, but excluding these dozen surnamed Zhang, I don't think I will make any mistakes."

"Follow the hair?" The little demon was very dissatisfied.

Geng Erpao smiled again and said, "Because I discovered another thing, this incident made me feel that the person was the Taoist priest named Zhang!"
