Chapter 265 Map of Wuhou Hiding Soldiers
I had already suspected that Professor Sun had "corpse gas". After hearing what Shirley Yang said, I quickly grabbed his shoulders and looked at his face carefully. I saw that there were indeed several bruises on Professor Sun's cheeks, but they were definitely not due to The bruises caused by the collision turned purple, but also contained a layer of black air seeping out of the skin, which is the "corpse disease" that only appears after death.
Professor Sun was also quite surprised. He quickly pushed my hand away and asked Yao Meier for the small mirror he brought with him. He looked at his own face and looked gloomy after looking at it.
I asked Professor Sun suspiciously: "Master Jiu, what do you say now? In addition to corpse worms and corpse gnats, you are going to grow corpse hair and become a zombie at this rate. What happened to you?"
Professor Sun sighed and told one thing with tears. Two years ago, he was working in Luoyang, Henan, and encountered a nightmare. The local farmers dug wells, but there was no water at the depth, but there was a lot of water. The blue bricks are like scorching hot in the hot summer, but the long bricks dug out from the ground are seeped with cold air, as if they were dug out of an ice cellar, and they cannot be heated by the sun.
There are many historical sites in Henan. An old farmer knew what kind of ancient tomb was being excavated and quickly reported the matter. So an archaeologist came over to investigate. Sure enough, what he excavated was an ancient tomb.
Due to the hot weather, and the rammed earth and tomb bricks on the tomb wall were broken, we had to carry out rescue excavation. For the sake of protecting cultural relics, we did not open the coffin on site. We used a tractor to transport it to a nearby hospital. Professor Sun heard that the coffin was It was marked with many ancient inscriptions and mysterious and strange symbols that no one could recognize except him. It happened that he was on a business trip nearby, so he took several students to the hospital to participate in the opening of the coffin.
The outermost coffin was already somewhat damaged. Everyone was only worried that the ancient corpses and funerary objects inside had decayed, so they didn't make too many preparations. However, when they dismantled the inner coffin step by step, they discovered that it was made from the core of a gloomy wood tree. The inner coffin was still as cold as water.
When the coffin was opened under the shadowless light in the hospital's autopsy room, everyone's eyes were dazzled. At that moment, they seemed to see the corpse of a man in red robe fly out of the coffin, rush to everyone, and then disappear into nothing. Everyone was startled. Looking at the corpse in the coffin, it was as rotten as wax, the skin and flesh had collapsed, showing a strange dark gray color.
Most people who work in this profession are atheists and do not believe in ghosts in the world. However, no one can tell what happened to the horrific scene they just saw, and no one dares to make it public. They knew they might get into trouble if they told the story, but since then, the people who had participated in the coffin opening and autopsy all felt unwell, had nightmares one after another, and sought medical advice everywhere to no avail.
Professor Sun often walked around among the people and knew many incredible and strange things. He secretly speculated that it was probably because the equipment for opening the coffin was not perfect. Who would have thought that the heroic spirit of the ancient corpse in the coffin when it was alive had not disappeared, sealing the corpse for thousands of years. The Qi was so strong that it even hit a living person. He knew very well that this Yin Qi was already penetrating to the bones, and sooner or later it would cause trouble, which might lead to his death. He was often worried about this.
Professor Sun said: "Later on... I was plagued by Pepsi, and I had already forgotten about that incident. Now that I think about it, it must have been the root of the disaster that was planted at that time. It didn't come earlier and it didn't come later. It seems that it was just at this juncture. I don’t have much time left. I can see the Zhou Tian Gua Diagram before I die, and I can die in peace. In addition... I also hope that when I am alive, I can see you find Dixian Village and retrieve everything from the ancient tomb. I can use the hidden alchemy cauldron to save the life of the Nanhai Dan people. This can help me wash away some of my sins, and I will feel a little better when I die."
After hearing these words, the fat man wondered: "Master Sun Jiu, as the saying goes, people are in high spirits during happy events, but will go crazy when death is imminent. How come you knew that your death was approaching, and instead of going crazy, you suddenly became Are you kind-hearted? You said so many touching last words, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable, fat man. Don’t worry, after you die, we will definitely miss your glorious image and remember you. exemplary deeds.”
Shirley Yang said to Professor Sun: "Professor, don't take things too absolutely. If it's the corpse energy that has accumulated in the coffin for thousands of years, maybe you can use the golden elixir to pull out the corpse poison. Just like what Lao Hu often said, Never talk about death until the last moment."
Professor Sun sighed: "Why do you want to go crazy when death is imminent? People who are about to die are also good at words. You don't understand. I know my own physical condition best. Now that things have happened, I don't have any more illusions. People can breathe. The Buddha is like a stick of incense. Instead of waiting to die, it is better to do something real while you can still breathe, so as not to leave a selfish impression on you after death."
Professor Sun realized that he didn't have much time left, so he immediately made preparations to risk his life with us into the "Tibetan Soldier Gorge". I looked at him coldly and saw Master Sun Jiu's expression was gloomy, his eyes were full of grief and indignation, and I couldn't tell that he had just Those words were a lie, but my mind was still full of doubts, and I still refused to believe his words. Even if I temporarily believed him, I only believed him three times out of ten.
I vaguely feel that Mr. Sun Jiu is not simple. He must be hiding something from us. However, no matter how disguised and hidden a person is, there will always be cunning in his eyes. The look that Mr. Sun is showing at this moment is extremely sincere. I stare at him. After looking at him for a long time, seven out of ten doubts had been eliminated by several percent and gradually turned into "half-confidence and half-doubt". I thought that if I took him with me into the "Zangbing Gorge" to look for the "Shengmen", I would just need to If I don't let him go more than ten steps away from me, even if he really has a plan, he won't be able to bring it out.
Having said that, I also hope that all this is just my overthinking. The current situation is enough to make people anxious, and it is best not to make any more mistakes in the operation of deciphering the "Wuhou Hidden Soldiers Map".
I also asked Yao Meier to talk about the "Picture of the Hidden Soldiers of Marquis Wu". According to old legend, the biggest shortcoming of the killing "killing weapon" designed based on this set of pictures is that it cannot be maneuvered and is rarely used in battle formations. In terms of purpose, the most useful place for it is the "Tomb Tomb". As an anti-theft mechanism, it can be used as an anti-theft device, ranging from dozens of "Merchan Hidden Arrows" to thousands of "Wooden Army Ghost Figurines". , after the attack, "machine indoctrination, back and forth", one after another, the hidden weapons used in it include "sword slave, night dragon, fire, hob, quicksand, poisonous smoke, random child...", the types Too many to count.
I told Fatty and Sun Jiuye: "Do you understand? This is not a joke. We have to find some ways to defend ourselves first." Then we went to the tomb and took out two large coffin lids. The two pieces of "life" The "cover" is all made of ancient pine bark, the texture is like dragon scales, the wood is dense, hard and tough, even a strong bow cannot penetrate it.
Then he lifted the coffin lid to the place where the hidden spring spewed, soaked it with the ground water, and tied it with ropes a few times, so that it could be lifted and dragged at will. The whole body was packed tightly and neatly, leaving Shirley Yang and Yao Meier is waiting in front of the tomb door.
The three of us immediately adjusted the "tactical spotlights" on our helmets, and hung our gas masks on our chests for backup. We lined up in a row lengthwise, with the coffin lids on both sides, and the "gold steel umbrella" in front of us. The fat man at the end carried a large "carrying bag", which covered the front, back, left and right sides so that no water could get in.
I knew Shirley Yang would definitely be worried, but it was useless to have more people doing this kind of thing, so I turned around and told them to just relax and don’t follow them in. Then, together with Sun Jiuye and Fatty, we walked on the "heavy" road. He walked into the dark and wide tomb passage in front of him.
I was holding a "Wolf Eye Flashlight" in front of me, which had a longer lighting range. The field of vision could reach more than 20 meters. Once I passed the "Void Gate", I only walked 20 steps away when I saw a female corpse lying in the tomb passage. On the ground, the corpse was dressed in ancient plain clothes. This outfit did not look like the attire of a modest woman, but looked like a mourning widow wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning. Her little feet were wearing delicate embroidered shoes like pointed vertebrae, but those shoes were bright red. Wrapped in a snow-white fierce costume, it is extremely eye-catching.
I walked closer and took a photo of a female corpse with my "wolf-eye flashlight". I saw that the corpse had long been gone and had been eaten away by corpse insects. There were only scattered bones, but a set of clothes and shoes were preserved. It's still intact, giving off a strange and disturbing feeling.
I looked back at Mr. Sun Jiu, and saw that he was also confused. He advised me: "The Taibao of Guanshan is acting erratically. This figurine tunnel built in the rift valley is full of dangers, and the details are unknown." We'd better not touch the things, just go around them."
Just when I had this idea, I passed by the corpse and swept the beam of the flashlight towards the wall. I saw that there were dense caves on the high places. I felt even more unsure. I said to Professor Sun and Fatty: "That Dixian Village We still don’t know what the scale is. Judging from the way the Guanshan Zhimifu is hidden, Dixian Fengshigu must have exhausted his mind. The various arrangements are unimaginable. Even if the landlord class is worried about the peasant uprising army coming to overthrow their struggle. , is it necessary to do this?"
Sun Jiuye also seemed a little nervous after entering the tomb passage. He whispered behind me: "Feng Shigu, the Taibao of Guanshan, is a madman. Although this is a legend, it may not be true. I have an acquaintance from the medical school. According to She said that from our modern medical point of view, both collecting and creating can treat mental illness, so Feng Shigu hid the antiquities obtained from his tomb in Dixian Village and left this mountain-viewing guide. Any attempt to save people is an act of madness, and we cannot treat it with an ordinary human mind."
I responded and led the team forward cautiously. Not far after passing the corpse, there was a bend in the straight tomb passage. After turning the bend, the terrain became even wider. In the depression of the wall, there were rows of scarlet brick buildings. There are countless of them, but when I calm down and look at it, I find that it is not made of stone bricks. Each brick is a stone coffin the size of a palm. It is rectangular in shape and has a certain curvature on the coffin lid. Just look at its construction. , are not modern things. At a rough glance, there are probably no less than 10,000 small coffins.
Each small coffin is engraved with different symbols, and each one is different. There are "stars, hexagrams, five elements, six Ren..." and so on. They are all based on a symbol in ancient magic as a "recognition". For example, some coffins have "soil" engraved on their lids, and some have "water" engraved on them. There are too many to mention. Some have the words "Insects and Fishes", and some have graphics painted on them, which are confusing to the human eye. .
It is said that there is a "Coffin Mountain" in the "Coffin Gorge". Could it be that these strange little coffins were dug out from the "Coffin Mountain" by Guanshan Taibao? But who buried them? Such a small coffin is certainly not meant to contain "dead people", so what could be hidden in it?
We held up a flashlight and looked around. We were surrounded by a tomb passage filled with small coffins, and there were several stone gates around it. The tomb passages were distributed in a "spider-leg" shape. Except for the "Kongsu" gate, there were many other gates. It has been closed without any gaps, and it has also been filled with copper slurry and molten iron. This shows that the tomb passage in front of the tomb door has been completely isolated from the outside world, and the "Dixian Village Ancient Tomb" is not nearby.
There are words in "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" that "the souls are fascinated by the coffins and the remains of the ancient tombs", which are completely consistent with the situation seen in front of us. As expected, if you want to find the "Dixian Village Ancient Tombs", you can only find them. Only by finding the map hidden in the "Old Tomb of King Wuyang" or other pictures, and then following the directions on the map, can you learn the truth about "Dixian Village".
Professor Sun reminded the fat man and me: "You must not touch those small coffins. Once the mechanical spring in the tomb is triggered, we will have to reimburse them all here."
The fat man also knew how powerful he was, so he held up the coffin lid and said, "Master Jiu, who do you think I am? What Fat Master is best at is staying motionless, but the problem is, if we don't do something... how can we find out what's inside the coffin?" Confidential documents? What kind of picture are you talking about? Is it a confidential document? Where are the hidden weapons? Are they all marked on the picture? "
I said this is really like a "confidential document", and these stone coffins are "safe deposit boxes". The "confidential document" recording the secrets of Dixian Village should be hidden in them. If the wrong one is opened, we have to go and see it. Marx.
The fat man was startled and said: "Hey! Is it really a safe? If I had known, I would have bought a copy of "The Sorrows of the Young Snitch" in Panjiayuan in advance to study it. Liu Heizi, who read the old book last time, picked up a copy. According to Liu Heizi said that this book was written by Kang Xiaoba, a famous fallen young man during the Republic of China, who was in the detention center after he was arrested and gnawed on cornstarch. This book is so amazing, it is the only one of its kind. Hundreds of households, twisting doors, picking locks, and opening safe doorways.”
I knew that I was going deep into the Longtan Tiger's Den at this time, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It seemed that if I didn't touch those small coffins, the "pin device" hidden in the tomb passage would not be triggered for the time being, so I asked Sun Jiuye and the fat man to put down the coffin lid first, thinking He was spinning rapidly, repeatedly thinking about the hints in "Guanshan Zhimifu", and only talked about irrelevant gossip with the fat man in order to reduce the psychological pressure.
I said: That "Kang Ba Ye" has never opened a safe, and this person is definitely not a young man who made a mistake during the Republic of China. "Kang Xiaoba" was a thief in the late Qing Dynasty who lost his hands and was caught by the government. , after the interrogation by the three courts, he was taken directly to Caishikou and beheaded alive. All his skin and flesh were cut off, and even the bones and bones were fed to wild dogs. How could he have the time to write "The Sorrows of a Young Snitch"? As for the more famous lost youth during the Republic of China, I think it should be "Swallow Li San", but Li Sanye seems to be illiterate, and he doesn't seem to be a "writer". The shabby book you just mentioned, the title of the book I It sounds a bit familiar. It's probably a roadside product written by a headless ghost. How can the content be taken seriously? If you have time, you can definitely write a book called "The Trouble of Fatty, the Young King", but now that we have said that, we don't have the skills of a snitch. If we want to open the "safe" in front of us, there is no way to force it. We must have the right " password".
Professor Sun looked at me as if I was careless, and quickly reminded him: "You have to be careful when you open the bow, and there will be no turning back. If you open the wrong coffin, even if we are lucky enough to avoid many traps, what the earth immortal left behind The map will definitely be wiped out, so we must not act rashly without complete assurance."
I said: "Don't look at me pretending not to care. In fact, I am also beating the drum in my heart. I definitely don't dare to play tricks on this matter. But Guanshan Zhimi Fu seems to be complicated and simple, and there are two things that can be known in the world. I'm afraid there are not many people who know what "four thousand, one hundred and seven" means. It just so happens that I am one of them. This is the skill of Jin Xiaowei and others. As long as there are twenty-four thousand and "one hundred and seven", there are only a few The words are correct, the contents of this coffin can definitely be taken out."
Since before opening a coffin, no matter whether it is big or small, or from which dynasty or generation, according to the old rule of "touching the gold and turning it over", you must first "lay the light" in the southeast corner. After seeing those small coffins, I have a good idea. , I took out a candle and wanted to light it in the southeast corner. I used to light candles without missing a candle, but this time it was strange. I changed three candles in succession, and they all went out when they were lit.
There was no wind in the tomb passage. When I bought the candles, I tried them one by one and found no abnormalities. How could they go out instantly? A chill ran through the bones in my body. I felt like my head was numb. But it was definitely not a good sign. I took a deep breath to calm myself down and lit it again with a lighter.
This time the candle finally lit up, but the flame was not much bigger than a "soybean grain". It was green and glowing with cold light. Although the candle was not extinguished, its light was weak and seemed to be dying, and it was especially fluorescent green. Like a will-o'-the-wisp, this is caused by the lack of "lamp intention". It is said that the captains of Mojin in the early years called this abnormal phenomenon "ghost blowing out the lamp". (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in.
