At this point, everyone present looked at each other. Suddenly, Qi Tie, who was stopped by the adjutant, opened his mouth and said," What Xiao Bai said makes sense! I almost forgot, yesterday was the Ghost Festival! It was now October, and it was the " October Dynasty ". It was called the Winter Clothes Festival, also known as the Dark Yin Festival. The 15th of October was the day with the heaviest Yin Qi in Ghost Month. Legend had it that at midnight on this day, if one stayed in the wilderness, they would see the wonder of the night of a hundred ghosts. A hundred ghosts came over from the Bridge of Helplessness. Ming Si lit a big red lantern and led them toward the Yang World that they had not seen for a long time. Therefore, it was not suitable to go out on this night. All things die, and people die, and ghosts die. This statement was reasonable!”

"So, what should we do next?" Aren't you going to look at the car?"

Qi Tiexui hurriedly shook his head and said," No, no, I think the car needs to be checked as well as the station master. How about this, Xiao Bai, don't look at the side. I'm talking about you. You get into the car with Lord Zeng. As for the station master, I'll deal with him with Deputy Zhang!"”

Hearing this, the adjutant laughed." Master Eight is indeed Master Eight. You're making a lot of noise. I think if I don't point a gun at you today, you won't enter the car even if you're beaten to death.”

Qi Tie said anxiously," Hey, adjutant, you're wrong. Let me tell you, this station chief is very important. I dare say that his secret is not in this car. It's urgent. I don't want to talk too much with you. Gu Qingfeng, come with me to find the station chief. Xiao Bai, you and Lord Zeng get into the car together. What do you think?"”

Lord Zeng looked at the train and said in a deep voice," In that case, go and come back quickly."”

Qi Tie quickly said," Of course! Don't worry! Xiao Bai, are you okay?"

White Jade City said calmly," White Jade City will listen to Eighth Brother's arrangements."”

Qi Tie's mouth was like a big shot. When he walked past White Jade City, he lowered his voice," Little Bai, I think you and Lord Zeng don't get along.”

White Jade City did not raise his head." What's wrong?" They had just met and were just unfamiliar with each other.”

Qi Tie's mouth was pensive." Then you should cooperate with Lord Zeng. Remember one thing, the nine gates are one, and we advance and retreat together!”

White Jade City nodded." Yes."

After saying that, Qi Tie left with Gu Qingfeng.

White Jade City and Lord Zeng stood side by side on the platform of the train station. Not far away, a team of bodyguards was pulling a flamethrower to cut the iron door. Seeing the sparks, a faint chill came from the carriage.

Lord Zeng said faintly," Sixth Young Master, this is your first time in the Nine Gates. Do you know why the Nine Gates are divided into the upper, middle, and lower levels?”

White Jade City replied," I don't know."

Lord Zeng rubbed his hands together and said," If someone does something to save face, someone will do something to save face. If someone is a bad person, someone will be a good person. Someone will be a superior person, and someone will be a subordinate person. This is Jianghu. Only in this way can we firmly control every level of power in Changsha and stand in Changsha City forever.”

White Jade City laughed." Lord Zeng, you're wrong. I want my face, but I won't let go of the inside. I'd rather kill and set fire to a gold belt, repair bridges and roads without leaving any corpses. I'd rather teach ten thousand people to hate me than curse my name!”

After White Jade City said this, Lord Zeng and White Jade City looked at each other.

Lord Zeng's meaning was self-evident. Although the Nine Gates were united in honor and disgrace, they were clearly ranked. You have wild ambitions, but don't do anything out of line. For example, you disobeyed Lord Zeng's order just now and let Gu Qingfeng go.

White Jade City's meaning was also very obvious. Nine Gates are Nine Gates, and I am me. Your rules only apply to you. It's not suitable for me. Don't use my master's tricks to trick me.

At this moment, the bodyguard who was cutting the door shouted," Sir, the door has been cut open!”

Lord Zeng adjusted his military coat and walked forward. White Jade City followed behind him.

White Jade City frowned. It had to be said that the stench of corpses and dust was very unpleasant. He looked at the carriage carefully. It was the second carriage after the front of the carriage. As soon as he entered, White Jade City saw his "old acquaintance"-the coffin.

This coffin was the Longevity Coffin. The two coffins were stacked on top of each other and placed neatly on both sides. There was a thick layer of dust and spider webs on the coffins. At a glance, this carriage was filled with coffins like this.

Lord Zeng walked in front with a flashlight in his hand, and White Jade City followed behind him. When they passed by a few coffins, White Jade City bent down and reached out to touch the side of the coffin. He could vaguely feel the dent mark on the side of the coffin. White Jade City narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. He wiped the sign on the coffin and felt the number "042".

With a bang, Lord Zeng pushed open the door of the fourth carriage, which was already the second last carriage. He said softly," There are many dead people here. Come and take a look."”

White Jade City followed him and pushed open the door. When he entered, he saw corpses in tattered labor clothes. They were all lying on the ground, lying down, or kneeling. White Jade City's eyes focused slightly. He took out his knife and faced a corpse lying on the ground. With a flick of his knife, the clothes on the back of the corpse were torn apart, revealing a strange black tattoo. He patted the back of the knife and lifted the corpse's face. Its face was dark. Her lips were pale and her eyes were wide open…

Lord Zeng asked," How is it?"

White Jade City said in a deep voice," Every corpse is facing down, and there are almost no signs of a fight around. The scene of death is very strange. Lord Zeng, did you find anything?”

Lord Zeng continued to walk forward and said," The big toes of these dead bodies are different from ours. The second phalanx of their toes is especially thick, which should be caused by long-term bending. These people should often wear clogs.”

White Jade City thought for a moment. It was now the 22nd year of the Republic of China. According to the development of history, the Japanese army should not have set foot in this place this time. Then, there was only one type of person who appeared here. White Jade City said," Are these people Japanese spies?”

"It might not be a Japanese spy." Lord Zeng said in a deep voice and quickened his pace.

"Lord Zeng, please slow down. I have something to say.”White Jade City murmured behind him, and Lord Zeng stopped in his tracks.

Lord Zeng turned around." What's wrong?”

White Jade City said," The next carriage should be very different.”

"How different?"

White Jade City said," Along the way, there were a total of forty-two coffins. However, these are not the thin coffins that we commonly see. These coffins are divided into inner coffins and outer coffins. They should be called coffins. The cost is a hundred times that of ordinary coffins. To make such coffins, the craftsmanship level is very high. I just saw that the outer material of these coffins is made of high-quality nanmu. I think Lord Zeng knows the price of nanmu. The price of building one was enough to make an ordinary country gentleman go bankrupt. There were a total of forty-two coffins along the way. The owner of the tomb was not just rich. He must have a high status! He must have a strong background! "The other reason is that the tomb robber who dug out these coffins must have spent a lot of money to arrange 42 expensive coffins. He must have done it intentionally. He wanted the tomb robbers to be suspicious because of money and make them think that these coffins were real and not fake. Normally speaking, such a trap would normally fall into the trap. This kind of trap that was real and fake and expensive would not fall into the trap. However, along the way... These forty-two coffins had not been opened, which meant that the mechanism had not been activated, but the tomb had already been opened. This also meant that the person who opened the tomb was definitely not an ordinary person. He was definitely an outstanding person! Someone who was proficient in Chinese tomb culture and was able to avoid traps and successfully take down the coffin should be Chinese!”

Lord Zeng said," Continue. Your analysis is correct.”

White Jade City pointed at the carriage that he was in." This carriage is the accommodation carriage. The people responsible for escorting all live here. They gave up so many coffins and lived here. Then, the last carriage is very obvious.”

Lord Zeng understood a little." You mean that the last carriage is the most important carriage of this train, so it should be filled with.”

" The main coffin of the tomb owner."”

At this point, White Jade City took a step back. As he did so, a stack of paper fell from the curtain hanging behind White Jade City. There seemed to be some marks on the paper. There were clear marks on the instruments, and they were made neatly. Lord Zeng said," Secret experiment. This is an experimental drawing!" F * ck, what kind of experiment am I doing?”
