Volume 1 Waste Materials on the Road Explosion and Demon Slaying Chapter 30 The Secret Passage in the Tomb Strange Jade Coffin
Ma Zhong and Wei Wudao were desperately digging holes in the ground, this tomb was more special, they had never touched it before, the tomb was not very deep underground, the place where they went down was the location where the two villagers in the village were killed by lightning, and this pit was split by lightning The soil layer above collapsed.
At that time, when the old people in the village saw this hole, they could see the door of the tomb when they looked inside, and they hurriedly called a few young people to fill it in, but this matter was still spread by those idlers in the village who liked to talk nonsense, and it reached the ears of Wei Wudao, who was in the location of the ancient tomb nearby.
Isn't this a coincidence, it doesn't take much effort to come, but this big tomb is in the field, but this field is very close to the villagers' houses, and there are dogs in the village that will bark, if the villagers find out, it will alarm the government, not to mention, dozens of villagers carrying hoes can't eat and walk around, don't want to mix here in the future.
It's not easy to start all of a sudden, seeing that the silver that is about to arrive can't be obtained, but a few of them are in a hurry, so they will send the villagers to sweat medicine, but luck is coming, but the two villagers who were killed by lightning can not be buried, I heard that the coffin can't be lifted, Wei Wudao thought that the opportunity was coming, so he went to check, and found no danger.
came back and discussed with his brothers, and finally they decided that he would pretend to be a Taoist priest to bury the two coffins, and call the villagers at night to scare them and let them not go out at night.
Give them a few hours or two to steal that tomb, unknowingly.
Not to mention that this method is very simple for a few of them, those villagers naturally believe it really, Wei Wudao used to pretend to be a Taoist priest to deceive everywhere, and those who deceived themselves believe that those villagers can still not believe it, and they can deceive themselves The ancestor of the liar's nest.
Scaring and scaring those villagers who don't know how to use magic and haven't seen the world is not an easy thing to catch, just talk nonsense, no one dares to go out, a few people swaggered into the village and went directly to the tomb.
To say that this tomb is special, there are quite a lot of special places, first of all, the tomb door, the tomb door of the ancient tomb is generally open to the west or north, the southeast direction is facing the sun, the descendants are afraid of disturbing their ancestors, giving birth to an incident for no reason, so the tomb door is mostly open to the northwest.
However, in this tomb, the tomb door is facing due east, and it looks no different from the ordinary tomb door, but Wei Wudao and Ma Zhong entered the tomb and found that the tomb door was not made of stone at all.
Due to its age, the tomb door has long been covered with dust, and when you pat the dust with your hands, you can see that it is made of a single piece of cast iron, and the door is still engraved with crooked runes.
Wei Wudao was not in the mood to study these runes at this time, time was running out, the two tomb doors were not very big, about a little smaller than the doors of the villagers' houses, they couldn't do anything about this door for a while, it was still a whole piece of iron, and they didn't know what was killed inside, and they couldn't open it.
Digging up the top of the tomb door is still a whole heavy stone slab, which is a terrible thing, this is a 'palace' built underground.
Wei Wudao and Ma Zhong were sweating profusely, and they couldn't understand it in their hearts, but looking at this tomb door, the stronger it was, the more amazing the characters inside were......
Thinking about it like this, the two looked at each other and made a lot of energy, if the top doesn't work, then dig the bottom, and after a while, Ma Zhong dug a thief hole under the tomb door, and sure enough, there was ordinary dirt underneath.
It didn't take long to dig into the inside of the tomb, and when he didn't come in, he didn't know what was going on inside, and Ma Zhong was stunned by the situation inside.
They have dug so many graves, and they have opened their eyes, large and small, and they have never seen a bright hall.
Two rows of more than ten oil lamps illuminated the tomb, brighter than the oil lamps they brought, Ma Zhong saw that the tomb seemed to be inhabited by a living person, and he was frightened and hurriedly retreated.
Wei Wudao didn't believe it, he had seen ancient records when he was studying the law before, and the special wick and lamp oil could make the oil lamp burn for a long time, and it could not be extinguished for hundreds of years.
A few things that make that wick lamp oil, what kind of dragon scales, Qi Feng Yu, red shark oil, and what kind of meridian watch, blazing red, basically I haven't heard of any of them, let alone seen them.
And in that ancient book, the production of several spells and magic weapons have been lost, and it can't be said to be lost, in short, I don't know what the problem is, according to the practice recorded in the ancient books, Wei Wudao tried to do it according to the gourd painting scoop, but it was useless at all, so Wei Wudao thought that the oil lamp recorded in the ancient book was also nonsense.
Now listening to Ma Zhong say this, I feel that this oil lamp is not necessarily fake, and after talking to Ma Zhong about it, the two of them determined that no one should look at it first.
Dig the hole wide, let Wang Kui and Tu Sanguang come down together, and there will be a response.
The tombs dug before were not such a big place, most of them were crowded next to the coffin, opened the coffin lid and touched the burial goods and then returned little by little the same way, so it was Ma Zhong who came to dig the thief hole, he was short and very flexible, and he was not small, and it was more suitable to dig the thief hole and take the funeral goods than a few of them.
After entering, take a closer look, there are dozens of oil lamps in this tomb alone, and at first you have to hunch your waist to walk, and you can walk straight down the steps without taking a few steps.
Tu Sanguang walked in the front, he had the best skills, and some dangers could be reacted in time, Wei Wudao walked behind Tu Sanguang, he knew some spells and some taboos, Ma Zhong was in the third this time, there was no need to dig a thief hole, his role was not very big, Wang Kui was at the back, carrying the guy they needed.
After walking a few steps, there was a "click", and several people stopped and looked around motionlessly.
There were only two rows of oil lamps around, and there was nothing else, the clicking sound came from Tu Sanguang's feet, and when he raised his foot, he saw something that looked like bones, because of the long time he couldn't see what it was, and when he looked closely, there were many such things on the ground.
Wei Wudao looked at the things on the ground and said, "This can't be a human bone, right?"
Ma Zhong shook his head, "There is no head, it shouldn't be, but it looks like it's really a bone." ”
Tu Sanguang stepped on it a few times with his foot and said, "You say that this is not like the bones of a snake, the bones of a big snake." ”
Wei Wudao nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, yes, it's like a snake's bones, but is it so big? ”
Ma Zhong reminded in the back: "Let's be careful, this place is a bit evil, maybe there are snakes, Wang Kui, give one of us a knife, maybe we can use it." ”
Wang Kui hummed and found two big knives, a small shovel, and a small shovel from the big burden he was carrying, and said embarrassedly, "I only have two knives all the time, let's make do with them." ”
Tu Sanguang and Ma Zhong held knives in their hands, Wei Wudao held shovels, and Wang Kui at the end held shovels.
Outside, Chen San and Yang Chengzi were lying in the corner of the wall watching Wang Kui and Tu Sanguang's every move, and they were fascinated, and suddenly saw Wang Kui and Tu Sanguang also jumping down.
Chen San was not calm all of a sudden, and turned back to Yang Chengzi and said, "Hey, I said, they all seem to have gone down, should we do something, it's not a matter of just waiting, why don't you let Sister Wan'er go and see?"
Yang Chengzi directly refused, "No, that pretending to be a Taoist priest knows how to do some magic, I can't tell how much real skill he has, it's too risky to let Wan'er go, and if I guess correctly in this tomb, there should be something amazing." ”
"Something amazing?"
"Well, there was no thunder and lightning in broad daylight, and it was directly chopped to death, this thunder should be the thunder of the catastrophe, and the one who split should be the big guy who defended the sky below, but the two villagers happened to be standing nearby and were implicated."
"Really? It's too unjust, isn't it?"
"This big guy is underground, the thunder of the catastrophe will definitely not hurt it, we can only wait for them to come out and take a look, since they are tomb robbers, the robbery hole will definitely not be too big, it is inconvenient for us to enter and exit, if we are in the big guy against it, I'm afraid we have no power to fight back, and many spells underground can't be used, it's better not to go down." ”
"I don't want to go in either, I'm stunned when I go into the tomb, but what do you mean by saying that there are many spells in the underground that can't be used?"
"When I was learning yin and yang magic in the mountains, I saw ancient records that Taoism is not effective many times, including in the woods and tombs, we must be cautious in the woods to cast thunder methods, no matter what thunder will basically be split on the trees, unless those trees are split first, or don't use thunder methods. ”
"What about the tomb?"
"The tombs are all underground, thunder and many spells can't be cast, whether you can trigger the thunder first, even if the thunder can fall, it can't penetrate the ground and split the ground, and those big spells that need to attract the power of the stars, there is no way to kill ghosts in the tomb. ”
Chen San looked at Yang Chengzi with a look of surprise, "Then like this, you know that there is a big guy in the tomb below, what are you going to do?"
"That's not easy, when it comes out, isn't there a bait to go down, it's okay if you don't release it, if we release this evil thing, then we have to kill it. ”
"Don't count me in, will it be easy for me to find someone?"
"If you put 10,000 hearts, you won't be able to run away if I die, and this village will be unlucky. ”
Chen San's face twitched when he heard this, he was speechless for a while, he didn't know what to say, so he continued to look towards Tanaka, and the ghost qi still overflowed from time to time, which was not much different from before.
In the tomb, the four of them walked slowly and cautiously, although the time was very urgent, and there was still more than an hour before dawn, but this tomb was full of weirdness, very depressing, and several people did not dare to act recklessly.
When I first came in, it looked quite normal, but there were more oil lamps, and after walking a few steps, I began to find that there were a lot of crooked runes on the stone walls on both sides of the tomb, and some Wei Wudao knew them.
The most common ones are the afterlife charms and the evil suppression charms, and there are many spells that he can't understand, and he doesn't understand how the afterlife charms and the evil suppression charms are still engraved together, and they are all over the tomb.
At the end of the front, there were two directions, one left and one right, Wei Wudao took out the compass and looked at it, and found that the pointer pointed to the tomb on the left.
"There is evil spirit in the tomb, in the tomb on the left, let's go to the right side to take a look first, is it possible that there are two coffins after building two tomb roads?"
A few people nodded in response, Tu Sanguang shook the knife in his hand, and walked towards the right side of the tomb, although there were only a dozen steps, but all the way down was a slope, and several people followed closely behind, looking back from time to time.
The tomb on the right walked more than ten steps to the end, it looked like a compartment the size of a latrine, just enough for one person to enter, there was nothing in the compartment except some clay pots, there were stone walls all around, and there were no mechanisms or stone doors in sight, which made several people a little disappointed.
Wei Wudao was also surprised, "Is this place a latrine?
"Urgency, you don't need to pee in this tomb. Ma Zhong replied with a smile, causing several people to laugh.
Wei Wudao didn't think so, he touched it carefully back and forth, and in the seventh step of walking, the stone wall on the left was hollow, and he gently knocked on the stone wall with a shovel, and there was a sound of "dong dong dong", and several people were energized after hearing it.
It's a tomb within a tomb, they've only heard of it and they've never touched it, but this time they actually bumped into it, and they will definitely be able to return with a full load.
The tomb in this kind of tomb can be made at least the princes and generals of which dynasty, and you can know that the burial goods are indispensable by looking at the size of the tomb.
Several people discussed how to break the stone wall, and finally Tu Sanguang and Wang Kui directly broke the stone wall with shovels and shovels, and the stone wall was not thick, only the thickness of two bricks, and after a while, a big hole was broken, and when they looked inside, sure enough, a magnificent tomb appeared in front of them.
At a glance, hundreds of ever-bright lamps illuminate the entire tomb, step by step stairs extend upward, clay soldiers and chariots holding weapons appear neatly in front of you, and behind the soldiers and horses is a jade coffin that is yellow and white.
Seeing the jade coffin, the eyes of several people were about to pop out.
Wei Wudao said excitedly: "Our luck is here, we can be happy in the second half of our lives, hurry, go in and see what funeral goods there are." ”
Several people excitedly broke the stone wall entirely, entered the tomb, and walked up the stairs step by step, feeling the majesty of the Son of Heaven dominating the world.
Approaching and looking at these clay sculptures of soldiers and horses, Wei Wudao couldn't laugh for a while, the soldiers and horses were indeed clay sculptures, but these soldiers were about the same height as a few of them, and their faces were lifelike, and each one looked different.
The most important thing is that although the armor of these soldiers is also made of clay, each piece of armor is engraved with a soul suppression talisman, and the weapons in their hands are not ordinary weapons, and the saber held by the one standing at the front is a bit like the spirit knife recorded in ancient books.
This knife is the saber of Fu Meng, the general of the Qin State, Fu Meng is the fierce general of the Qin State, a royal spirit knife is invincible in the sand, although it is a clay sculpture, but you can still see the unique totem pattern of the imperial spirit knife.
Some of the soldiers in the back were holding spears and some were holding swords, and Wei Wudao could see at a glance that they didn't look like ordinary weapons.
Wang Kui has been walking at the back, this place is spacious, so he walked to the front, looking at the lifelike clay sculpture of soldiers and horses to reach out and touch it.
Wei Wudao saw it and hurriedly scolded: "Don't touch it, this looks like it's made of mud, but it doesn't seem to be a mud figure." ”
As soon as the words were spoken, several people were instantly frightened and did not dare to move.
"These soldiers are about the same height as us, this one is holding a spirit knife in his hand, each looks different, I can't tell you that these are living people, they are sealed in the mud by some magic, you must not touch them, retreat to the side, we will open the coffin and take the funeral goods and leave, these must not be touched. ”
According to Wei Wudao's analogy, several people carefully bypassed those soldiers, went to the jade coffin, looked at the jade coffin and looked at Wei Wudao.
Wei Wudao looked at this coffin carefully, to be honest, if the conditions allowed at this time, he wanted to drag this coffin out and sell it together, not to mention the funeral goods inside, just such a large piece of jade, the jade coffin cut out of the hollow, can it be priceless.
Don't say much, let's just say that the big jade coffin when Princess Pian Yu came out of the funeral in the capital, the color of the jade is not as good as the one in front of me, and it is said that a reward of 200,000 taels of silver was offered to find such a large piece of jade.
Knowing that the jade was wanted by the emperor, he didn't dare to ask for a high price, and then twelve craftsmen used it together for two days and two nights to carve it, if this one in front of him could be sold, it would be worth 200,000 taels, and 200,000 taels would be enough for their brothers to spend several lifetimes.
It's a pity, this coffin weighs a thousand catties, although Tu Sanguang and Wang Kui are strong and strong, but it is impossible for the two of them to get this coffin out, let alone get it out, they can't lift it, but I think that the coffin can be so valuable, so can there be less in the coffin.
"Wow, this coffin is terrible, Lao Tzu will be able to lie down in it when he dies in the future, and it is also the ancestor who has accumulated virtue. Wang Kui said with a smile.
"Phew, shut your foul mouth and get down to business. Ma Zhong frowned and scolded.
Several men took out their homemade rope hinges and fastened them to the four corners of the coffin lid, and the two of them pulled back so hard that the coffin lid slipped half off the coffin.
At this time, Wei Wudao had already seen the inside of the coffin, but did not see as many gold and silver jewels as he imagined, a corpse that had dried up, dressed in gorgeous clothes, lying quietly in the jade coffin.
This ancient corpse wears a phoenix crown on its head, a phoenix tail spirit feather on its shoulder, and the gorgeous clothes it wears on its body are also like women's clothes, with its hands placed on its abdomen, and two gold bracelets on its wrists that have lost their luster, and there seems to be something pressed under its hands.
Ma Zhong saw the gold bracelet on his wrist and said: "This gold bracelet has changed, there is a purple-black color, the soldier who took the lead is the Qin Dynasty's weapon Imperial Spirit Knife, this tomb is the tomb of the Qin Dynasty, but the phoenix crown and clothes on her head don't seem to be from the Qin Dynasty, and such a big underground tomb palace, is this burial goods a little less?"
Wei Wudao also wondered, "Just these two bracelets, it's not as good as her coffin, Lao Ma, you go in and take a closer look, are there any other funeral items worth a little silver." ”
