Main Text 1099. Tomb of Tusi King (47)

The other person's money is short, and the mouth is soft. The pickled mustard and instant noodles brought by Wang Pengpai are very much to Ling Dao's liking. Since there is nothing to do now, Yi Ling agreed.

"I'll go there in a quarter of an hour."

A quarter of an hour is enough time for him to take out his spare solar mobile power bank to charge his mobile phone and put the big cat of the second personality back into his mind. After walking out of the main hall with his mobile phone, Yi Ling saw Wang Pengpai standing by the door looking forward to it. Seeing him come out, his fat face smiled and stretched out his hand to guide: "This way, Ling Dao, this way."

There is a small open space behind the Tujia Amei B&B, with sparse shrubs and vines growing. The patio in front of the B&B is too small, so Yi Ling put corn shoots in the back mountain to have fun. Bai Feibai, Wang Pengpai and others also asked corn shoots to put the human-tiger fusion corpse, the coffin of Lao Linjun, the half-broken white jade plate and other various odds and ends brought back from Li's family and Zhimata Village here.

"Don't stay here after dark."

On the way, Wang Pengpai told a few jokes and mentioned how he and Captain An met in the past and how they "fought and got to know each other". Yi Ling was happy to hear this and reminded him casually when he was about to walk to the back. This area in the back mountain is open and has a large activity area. It's good in every way. The problem is that it is not within the safe range of Tujia Amei B&B. Even if the lights are turned on, the light can't reach here.

Staying here after dark is just courting death.

"Hey, got it! Director Ling, don't worry, we will definitely not cause you any trouble, and we promise to go back before night!"

Wang Pengpai saluted in a proper manner, Yi Ling raised his eyebrows, but smiled with his sleeves gathered, "You are wrong."

"If anyone is still outside at night, it is their own life that is lost, how can it cause trouble to me."

Yi Ling said slowly: "Besides, they may not die - you have also seen that in this mountain, people are not only dead and alive."

"At that time, death may be the destination that people seek but cannot get."

Wang Pengpai was stunned, as if he was frightened. When Yi Ling looked at him meaningfully, he came back to his senses, raised his fat face, and said seriously: "Thank you for your guidance, Director Ling, we will all repay your kindness."

"I didn't give any instructions, I just scared you."

Yi Ling smiled, waved his hand indifferently, and walked forward first. These people are really easy to lead. There is not a single cannon fodder like in the novel. Yi Ling was very sorry before that he didn't see the classic scene in the novel.

But now he has no regrets. Whether going to the B&B in the dark or at Li's house today, he has performed well. No one has died so far. And An Xuefeng's leadership and rapidly growing strength made Yi Ling look forward to whether this team can fight all the way to the Wuluo Mountain God under An Xuefeng's leadership.

If a human body really defeats a polluted god, it will be exciting and interesting enough, far more interesting than a few cannon fodders dying. For this reason, he doesn't mind giving a few suggestions. Wang Pengpai is An Xuefeng's follower, and Yi Ling believes that he can understand it.

"Director Ling, look, the tiger corpse and the white jade plate are over there."

Wang Pengpai followed Yi Ling half a step behind, leading the way for him. After going around the main hall, the view in front of him suddenly opened up. Even though it was late autumn and early winter, the forest here was still lush and green. The red, yellow and green leaves spread all the way like oil paintings. The towering trees stretched and undulated, and finally merged into the layers of forests in the distance.

This was not the first time Yi Ling came here. He saw two large wooden stakes not far apart more than ten meters away. Those were the traces left after the old trees that originally grew here were cut down. They were surprisingly large. The diameter of the wooden stake on the left was nearly two meters. The corn shoots liked to rub their tentacles on it. The wooden stake on the right was a circle larger. The wood was very special, a red color that was almost bloody.

Now the coffin of the old Linjun was placed on the large wooden stake on the left. Bai Feibai and others were all around the wooden stake on the right. When they saw Wang Pengpai bringing Yi Ling over, they all made way so that Yi Ling could see the situation on the wooden stake. I don’t know how the white jade plate that was broken from the middle door was tinkered with by the travelers. The cracks were glued together completely, and it was just the right size when placed on the blood-red wooden stake. The twisted and broken human-tiger corpse was also cleaned up and placed on the white jade plate in a seemingly intact state.

Yi Ling saw that there seemed to be something moving between the human-tiger corpse and the white jade plate. It became clearer when he got closer. Red threads that were not sure whether they were blood vessels or something else were hanging down from the human-tiger corpse like red worms, sticking to the white jade plate. There were even blood threads passing through the jade plate, as if piercing into the blood-red wooden stakes.

These moving blood threads really looked like thousands of red worms. There was also a strange fragrance mixed with a strange fishy smell in the air, which made Yi Ling frown and did not hide his disgust. He stopped two meters away from the corpse and raised his chin to signal. Bai Feibai took off his bloody gloves, walked to him with a notebook, and reported the investigation situation concisely like an elite secretary.

"In this human-tiger corpse, the bones in the tiger corpse were also human bones after examination. At present, it can be basically confirmed that this fused corpse is the twin sisters of the Li family. One of them still maintains a human appearance, and the other has been skinned and the flesh and blood corpse has been deformed into a tiger corpse."

"Professor Yu believes that this is similar to some of the situations he has seen in the folk villages in Northeast China."

When Professor Yu was young, he followed his teacher to a remote village in Heilongjiang. During the expansion of the substation there, he passed by the village and dug a grave. Professor Yu's teacher led a team to conduct a rescue archaeological excavation and found that it was a Jin Dynasty tomb complex, involving a total of 16 tombs, including eight earth-pit brick coffin tombs and eight earth-pit stone letter tombs, which contained ashes. The wooden boxes containing the bones were all rotten, the bottom of the coffin was not paved with bricks, and the ashes were melted into the soil.

"In fact, only fifteen burials were discovered at that time."

Yu Hehui said solemnly: "I discovered the sixteenth place by accident."

Yu Hehui still remembers that it was one evening when the archaeological team was finishing up their work. They were staying at a villager's house. When Yu Hehui was walking around the door after eating, he suddenly saw a white shadow running past, just like a little white rabbit. He immediately chased after him without thinking, and didn't even hear the cries of his companions behind him. He was just as stunned as a demon. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had run all the way to the archaeological site and next to the tomb.

The little white animal jumped into the grave pit. Yu Hehui also jumped in, only to find that there was an earth pit brick coffin tomb on the edge where the white animal disappeared. The top of the brick coffin made of green and gray bricks had been damaged. , there is a bronze mirror inside, and there is a strange little man lying on the bronze mirror. It has the head and upper body of a human, but is wrapped in the body of a skinned weasel.

Yu Hehui lifted up the brick coffin and took a look. The strange corpse seemed to have been burned by invisible flames. Only a handful of black ash was left, and the bronze mirror was cracked in half.

Later, the matter was ignored, and his companions who came over helped him out of the tomb. Later, this tomb was also included in the excavated tombs of the Jin Dynasty, but no one had seen the strange corpse, only the cracked body. Bronze mirror in half. In fact, it's strange. This area has already been explored, so there shouldn't be such nearby tombs that have been missed. But the old professor who taught Yu Hehui kept it secret and advised Yu Hehui not to think too much about it.

There are many strange things encountered during archeology. It is safest not to think deeply or think too much, but to pretend not to see them. Later, the companions also told Yu Hehui that they did not see any small white animals at all, but only saw Yu Hehui suddenly running out.

This matter has been weighing on Yu Hehui's heart. He was thinking hard and couldn't help but think of the strange corpse and the little white animal. After the rescue excavation mission was over and the day before leaving, Yu Hehui finally couldn't help it and asked several very old and well-informed old people in the village.

"Oh, that's not a rabbit, it's a beard, a white-furred fox. Do you know?"

The fellow slapped his thigh and said that in the Dabaldouzi Mountain behind their village, there lived Huang Xian and Hu Xian. The leader Huang Xian was about to become a sperm, and he was all white from his back to his tail. The old fox is also old, and his hair is all white, without any stray hairs. The two sides have fought over the mountain many times, especially in recent years. I heard that in the autumn, you can hear ghosts crying and howling in the mountains every night.

"We all said that Mr. Huang must have turned into a human being, so he decided to divide the entire mountain into his own territory and drive away the foxes."

The fellow villager said something astonishing: "That tomb you dug out, maybe it was Huang Erye who wanted to use a human tomb to hide his secrets and transform into a human. Hu Xian will definitely not do it when he sees it, but he can't dig up other people's graves." Grave, this is a bad thing. People say that the power station suddenly expanded outside the village and dug a grave. This must be Hu Xian's dream."

"Even Mr. Huang is very powerful, but he didn't let you discover the tomb. Hu Xian was angry and anxious - child, your family must have offered sacrifices to Hu Xian."

That's why the white fox came to Yu Hehui and asked him to destroy Mr. Huang's changes. Transforming from an animal to a human is against the harmony of nature, so you have to hide in the dark. Once you see the sky, it will just turn into ashes.

"At that time, I asked a fellow villager, since there are people who have changed from beasts to humans, there are also people who have changed from humans to beasts."

Yu Hehui looked at the body of the human-tiger fusion and sighed in his heart.

Transforming from an animal into a human being is a lifelong pursuit of spiritual animals. Transforming from a human to an animal usually involves a lot of very evil rituals.

For example, humans and animals exchange skins under evil methods.

Yi Ling was addicted to listening to the vixen's story, and the look in Yu Hehui's eyes changed subtly. He always felt that this professor might have the potential to transform into a fox - he wanted to be a big fox too!

He remained silent, and the passengers discussed the matter among themselves.

"Her skin was peeled off, and there is a high probability that a white tiger was also skinned."

Yu Hehui said: "Their skins must have been fused together, or the tiger skin was used to swallow the human skin through magic, and the bodies of both parties will also change."

The human corpse deformed and twisted into the shape of a skinned tiger corpse. And the tiger corpse may have turned into a skinned human. It is essentially a tiger, with tiger bones, marrow and tiger meat, but looks like a human. With the mixed human-tiger skin, it can be used as the core evil object of many rituals.

"Li Jun and the others have skin problems. We had previously suspected that the Li family was involved in three parties."

Bai Feibai said that both Lin Jun and Li Jun wanted to change their destiny. In the original confrontation between the Salt God and the White Tiger, Lao Linjun had the support of the Mountain Worship Cult, while Li Jun probably got another force with "skin" as its anchor from nowhere.
