Chapter 16: The Tomb Beast

When Wen Jing heard about it for the first time, she felt curious, so she asked Lu Xiaohan, "Fang Xiang's family, is that the name of those statues?"

Lu Xiaohan nodded and explained: "Fang Xiang's clan is a god commonly believed in by the ancient people, a god who drives away epidemics and wards off evil spirits. In terms of official position, he is a subordinate of Sima stipulated by Zhou Li, and the highest official rank is the lower doctor, mainly for the country's epidemic control. At the funeral, Fang Xiang's clan drove Fang Liang. ”

"In the ancient court, Fang Xiang's ritual to drive away the epidemic was called Dada, and in the Tang Dynasty, it also became one of the military ceremonies, which belonged to the Taibu genus. There are three times a year, respectively, in the spring of the season, the autumn of the autumn, and the winter of the cold. And the Chinese New Year's Eve is the most solemn one. ”

"Before the Nara period in Japan, the Wu was introduced to Japan from China, and it was called the Wai Tsui style, and the Shinto shrine was in charge. Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve and the beginning of spring, a memorial ceremony is held in Japan. ”

"It's really worthy of the old master!" Qi Yu teased: "But I don't care about this, can you tell me that there will be four tomb beasts in the tomb of your Lu family for Mao?"

"Yes, it's the first time I've seen it. Wen Jing said.

"I really don't know this, I only know that these four statues are placed in four directions: east, west, north and south. Lu Xiaohan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Can you stop talking nonsense, you can see the direction at a glance!" Qi Yu snorted and walked towards the nearest statue.

"If I don't tell you, if you can distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, count me as losing!" Lu Xiaohan smiled and followed Wen Jing.

The statue is very tall, nearly two meters, it is wearing a bear skin, the appearance is a little hideous, from the face structure is not its original appearance, it should be wearing a mask, the mouth and nose are not obvious, the most conspicuous is the four eyes cast with gold on the mask!

These four eyes are not the same size, two on the left and right, and they are not symmetrical.

The statue is dressed in a black robe, with red trouser legs exposed, holding a gong in its right hand and a shield in its left hand, making a dancing gesture.

", do you want to test me?" Qi Yu looked carefully around the statue. "These days, even if you don't have a compass, it's still normal to go out with a mobile phone!"

"You can try!" Lu Xiaohan smiled indifferently.

"Stinky fool, stupid, how can there be a signal here?" Wen Jing pursed her lips and smiled.

"That's not for sure. As he spoke, Qi Yu took out his mobile phone, opened it, and was immediately stunned: not only did the mobile phone not have any signal, but even the screen was flowery!

"Damn, your ancestors are very powerful, they knew how to deal with modern high-tech hundreds of years ago!" Qi Yu stupidly stuffed the phone back into his pocket and muttered: "I forgot to bring a compass when I went out!"

"I have. Lu Xiaohan took out a compass from his body and handed it to Qi Yu as if he was doing a trick: "Brand new!"

Qi Yu took a look, only to find that its pointer was spinning in circles like crazy!

Wen Jing looked at it and was also a little surprised: "It doesn't seem to work!"

Qi Yu rolled his eyes, then squinted at Lu Xiaohan and said, "Po Piao, tell me honestly, is there any problem that has not been solved?"

Hearing this, Wen Jing felt strange: "Silly melon, what do you see again?"

Qi Yu glanced back at Wen Jing and smiled evilly: "He obviously knew that the electronic equipment and compass in here would not work, but he specially brought the compass in, of course not to show it to us!"

"Brother Silly Brother is really smart!" Lu Xiaohan slapped his hands and smiled.

"How do I feel that your level of selling is higher than mine!" Qi Yu rolled his eyes: "Say, what other moths?"

"Actually, the path I brought you in is the only correct one!" Lu Xiaohan groaned for a moment and continued: "This underground palace is not only complex in structure, not to mention the criss-crossing of dark passages, but also densely packed with organs, once someone breaks in, even if they are not trapped by the maze, they will be eliminated by the organs. ”

Qi Yu and Wen Jing didn't speak, just listened quietly.

"In that case, as I told you before: why did my ancestors leave a map of the labyrinth, and let others steal it quietly?

After speaking, Lu Xiaohan stopped talking and looked at Qi Yu and the others quietly.

Qi Yu touched his nose, thought for a while, and said, "I really can't answer this question, let's take a look." ”

Lu Xiaohan nodded, and led the two of them to introduce what they saw as they walked.

It took almost half an hour for Qi Yu and Wen Jing to finally figure out the situation in the entire underground palace main hall.

The floor of the entire dungeon is a standard square, with a side length of exactly forty-eight meters.

In addition to the sarcophagi that I had seen before, the sarcophagus in the middle was placed in the center of a taiji diagram, from which there were twelve golden wires one finger wide extending to the wall.

Around the Taiji map, according to the east green dragon, south vermilion bird, west white tiger, north Xuanwu four directions paved four black floor tiles, because and the surrounding gray and white floor tiles color is very different, so these four floor tiles are particularly conspicuous.

In the end, Lu Xiaohan led the two to stop in front of the stone case in front of the main coffin.

The stone case is about 1.5 meters long, 60 centimeters wide, waist-high and waist-high, and the shape is a special style for ancient sacrifices, made of white marble.

There is a brass bracket similar to a support, and there is a round object about nine centimeters in it.

"Presumably, this is the place where the Fuxi Sect is placed. Qi Yu pointed to the copper bracket.

Lu Xiaohan nodded: "It was originally placed here." ”

After taking a closer look at the bracket and checking the stone case, Qi Yu looked at the stone tablet behind the stone case.

The stele is very huge, and it just blocks the sarcophagus behind it from the front, which is also made of white marble.

There are words on the stele, carved in gold.

Qi Yu never knew much about ancient characters, so he asked Lu Xiaohan: "What is engraved on this?"

"The green dragon is out, the white tiger is followed, the vermilion bird is dancing, and the Xuanwu is back. Lu Xiaohan read it.

"What do you mean?" Wen Jing was puzzled.

"That's the second reason I brought you here. Lu Xiaohan shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "I also want to know!"

Lu Xiaohan smiled bitterly and sighed: "For decades, I haven't been able to guess the mystery, so I'm a little bored!"

Hearing him say this, Qi Yu immediately changed his face again: "Don't mind, when I didn't say it!"

Qi Yu didn't want Lu Xiaohan to give up like this, after all, Feng Xi's plan hadn't touched the door yet.

"Everything has been taken away, is it useful to leave these dumb riddles?" Wen Jing asked again.

"In the eyes of others, these things are used to create an environmental atmosphere, but the Lu family patriarchs of all generations must know three more things!" Lu Xiaohan looked very helpless: "And these three things don't seem to be close to Fuxi's family!"

"Which three?" Qi Yu's heart moved.

"First of all, the couplet, and then the words on the stele. ”

"And what is the third one?" Wen Jing interjected.

"You may not believe it, but this third thing is still related to words!" Lu Xiaohan sighed.

"Hurry up, what nonsense?" Qi Yu began to get impatient.

"Have you finished reading it, I'll take you to see the third one when you're done!" Lu Xiaohan grinned.
