Chapter 130: Demon Tower (Non)
"It was Associate Researcher Qian who led people to clean up the ancient tomb, and the people from the construction unit were also on site, how could it not be cleaned up?" asked Xiao Zhang, scratching his head. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's true that the tomb has been cleaned up, but the Gu poison refining array is still there. It's hard for you to understand now, so I'd better list the clues first, and then you can analyze whether it's appropriate or not. It was Xiao Lei who opened my mind, do you remember how we came out of Associate Researcher Qian's house and analyzed the fact that the passage of the living tomb was built with wall bricks in the tomb to die?" I looked at Xiao Lei and asked him with a smile.
Xiao Lei nodded, "I think it's the person who built the wall who didn't want us to know the exact time when he built the dead passage. ”
"That's right, he did this, first of all, he knew that this living tomb was going to be exposed, so he hid this time, it must be because this tomb was still in use at that time, and it was already refining Gu poison, and it didn't matter if the tomb was exposed, the important thing was that the matter of raising Gu poison could not be exposed. Another reason is that there happens to be a person who is doing something rejuvenating and can't stop anymore, so they have to think of another way to complete it. But what they didn't expect was that Associate Researcher Qian actually recognized the living tomb. "I try to slow down my speech so that they have some time to think.
"Then who is this person, he should be from the Ma family?" Xiao Zhang's question came quickly.
"We went to the ancestral tomb of the Ma family in the morning, and you noticed that the words Du Zijian were engraved on the stele? And the Du family has also lived in Mawang Village for a long time, so now this Du family should be the descendants of Du Zijian on the stele. I'm thinking, after the death of Ming Chengzu, there must still be people in the palace who know what the Ma family did, if they still do it in the name of the Ma family, it will be easy to be discovered, and it will cause another bloody storm, and the temptation of immortality is too great after all, it is likely that the object of the experiment will become the people of the Du family, after all, the two families are such a relationship, and even the people of the Du family from the beginning. ”
"If you think about it again, after the old man Du was sixty-seven years old, he went missing twice, and no one knew where he went, and he was gone for six or seven years and stayed for more than ten years, isn't it strange? Isn't it strange that his nephew looks so similar to him that he even inherited the gene of playing missing? In my opinion, Old Man Du and his nephew are one person, and he has never left Mawang Village. He cultivated for six years, continued to cultivate after ten years, and when he reached an age that could not be concealed, he made up a nephew, and so on. ”
Everyone was stunned and didn't speak, but they each silently drank the wine in the wine glass, and Xiao Lei poured me the wine again.
"Uncle Chang, if Old Man Du is the one who cultivates this immortal body, but it has been hundreds of years, they can keep this secret, why do they keep it all the time?" Xiao Lei picked up his cup and touched it with me.
"The human heart is the most difficult thing in the world to guess, isn't it? Maybe it's because of this temptation of immortality, maybe once you try it, there's some reason why you can't stop, and maybe there's something imperfect or uncontrollable about the method itself, and they have to study it again. But these should not be the point, what you are curious about is how they continued after the tomb was dug up, right?" They nodded, but I didn't rush to speak, picked up the cup, and took a sip gently, the wine that Xiao Zhang brought was not good-looking, but it was Hengshui Lao Bai Gan who had been hidden for more than ten years, the color of the wine was already slightly yellow, viscous and hanging glass, not very strong wine aroma, but when I drank it, the aroma slowly spread in the veins of the body, it was really extremely enjoyable.
Xiao Zhang stood up, asked the waiter to get a few hot dishes, and hurriedly ran back, for fear of missing something. I watched him sit down before continuing: "I think, the people of the Ma family and the Du family, knowing about the construction of a house on this land, must be thinking about moving the tomb, this is where Xiao Zhang and I went in the morning, but they must have encountered difficult problems, one is that there is no pit pit on the ground, how to ensure that there is enough humidity in the tomb?" And the most important thing is that there are more and more people in the village, and after the new village is built, more people will move in, the small dirt slope is close to the village, the location is too conspicuous, and there is no corn field cover, they frequently enter and exit the cemetery, it is easy for outsiders to find out. So they made a decision that seemed very risky, but it was safe. ”
Xiao Lei seemed to realize something, slapped the table suddenly, and said, "Uncle Chang, do you mean that the Ma family moved that living tomb to the tower?" I smiled and nodded to Xiao Lei, but the wine glass that Xiao Zhang had just picked up fell on the table.
"Only this speculation can explain what is happening in this building. You think, the elevator for no reason, always stop to the thirteenth floor, we don't know the mystery, but all the residents in the building feel that there is a problem on the thirteenth floor, they are harassed by all kinds of strange noises every day, some people can't stand it, move back to the village, some people are used to it, it's not strange, but at least here the people of the Ma family and the Du family are no longer suspicious, and the house has water and heating, and the problem of humidity and temperature is easy to solve. ”
"Uncle Chang, how did those strange noises in the building appear? If the Ma family deliberately did this to scare the neighbors, and they did it again every night, people couldn't stand it. Xiao Zhang doesn't seem to be able to accept this speculation yet.
"Xiao Zhang, the Ma family and the Du family didn't just move in a tomb. I estimate that the screams heard by the people in the building should be the sound of the immortal body refining Gu poison, after all, refining this Gu poison will hurt worse than death. But you think, if the people in the building often hear this scream, then they must suspect that the Ma family will still be exposed, and the graves in the cemetery will be moved in, and there will be more ghosts and lively, so they will naturally be covered up, this is where they are smart. Before I could finish speaking, Xiao Zhang asked me again: "Uncle Chang, will these ghosts and gods move with the coffin? If the grave is destroyed, where will the ghosts go? Moreover, putting them in the building is different from burying them in the soil, and those ghosts will have no opinion?"
"Xiao Zhang, you are right, we Chinese pay attention to entering the soil for safety, this building can only be regarded as a mortuary, not a burial, it is definitely not possible to put it like this for a long time, so the ghosts of the ancestors of the Ma family will make trouble, there are people who play mahjong, some who pull erhu, some who come and go, and they are not peaceful." I was on a door on the thirteenth floor, and I saw that the Ma family had nailed a few sachets with some copper coins hidden in them, I originally thought they were used to flush evil spirits, but now that I think about it, it is actually a door nail, just to prevent the soul inside from escaping. I estimate that the bones of the ancestors of the Ma family were all parked in the two houses on the thirteenth floor, and the old man Du who refined the immortal life, they hid in the suite on the twelfth floor of the Du family. I took a sip from my teacup and continued.
But this method is not a long-term solution, after a long time, the soul will not be able to enter the earth, the resentment will become bigger and bigger, and in the end there is no way to control it, according to Buddhism, it is impossible to enter reincarnation. Therefore, the people of the Ma family and the Du family have calculated that it should not take too long for the immortal body to be refined, so it is estimated that they will soon move the bones back to the cemetery for burial. But think about it again, if it weren't for the cultivation of immortals, what would you be willing to invite out the bones of your ancestors and stir them up for a year or two? How much yin virtue would this damage? Who would be willing to bear this charge of unfilial piety?"
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Lei nodded, and began to eat the hot food that had just come up, people are sometimes busy eating, in fact, it is a subconscious behavior, many times because the brain is running at high speed, and there is no command of the action.
"Uncle Chang, but the haunting of the tower has been since the pit was dug, and it was not the residents of the building who appeared, could it be that the people of the Ma family and the Du family did it?"
It's hard to judge, but most of them are not from the Ma family, and they know that the haunting method cannot stop the start of the project, and they have to make other preparations. But I think that although Associate Researcher Qian cleaned up six large vats, there were dozens of children's corpses inside, and this resentment was not easy to dissipate, and the strange things in the construction process may be related to this. "My explanation doesn't seem to be entirely convincing to Zhang.
"Uncle Chang, how do you explain Aunt Li who fell into the elevator shaft? Xiao Lei said the first half of the sentence and swallowed the second half back into his stomach. I understood what he was trying to say, after all, all the speculations I had just made, even if they were correct, could not have been included in the investigation report.
"Xiao Lei, Xiao Zhang, I can only speculate about Aunt Li, Aunt Li went home after buying vegetables that morning, and the elevator may not have gone to the thirteenth floor as usual, but stopped on the twelfth floor. Because that day happened to be the day when Old Man Du finished his cultivation and came out, they may have also pressed the elevator. Refining immortality, I always feel that they use the method of soul body separation, using the cultivated Gu poison into the body, and after the body recovers, the soul is entering. But at that time, people were the weakest, because not only could Old Man Du's soul come back, but other lonely souls and wild ghosts could also enter this body, and at this time, this body had a strong attraction. ”
When Aunt Li opened the elevator door, Old Man Du and the people of the Du family were walking inside, Aunt Li must have seen Old Man Du's nephew before, and when she saw him enter the elevator when he was young, she must have been scared away, plus she originally had a heart attack, and the person passed at once, and the soul could not come back, but it was not the people of the Du family who pushed Aunt Li into the elevator shaft, so I can't speculate. ”
