Chapter 127: Demon Tower (戍)

Associate Researcher Qian listened to my question, thought about it with a strange expression, nodded and said, "There should be, I have dug a few tombs, and they are empty, and no one has touched them from the items placed and the hidden mechanisms." The most important thing www.biquge.info is that a water tank is often placed in a living tomb, filled with clean water, which is probably prepared for bathing after the corpse is rejuvenated. I once saw a full human skin in a tank. ”

Listening to Associate Researcher Qian's explanation that he couldn't be more mysterious, I remembered that there were some corresponding records in the genealogy. Every dynasty and every generation will have some Inhumans who have lived for hundreds of years, they often look only fifty or sixty years old, and after more than ten years, the Inhumans will appear younger. But all these aliens have one thing in common, that is, every twenty or thirty years, they will disappear, and then they will reappear in the world after a few decades. But the genealogy does not classify these people as extraordinary, but instead lists them as demons, are they using the evil art of physical immortality as Associate Researcher Qian said?

Thinking of this, I asked again, "Researcher Qian, how do you think that the tomb under the foundation of the tower is a living tomb?"

Associate Researcher Qian sighed: "Actually, I don't think this is a living tomb, it's just that this tomb is very strange, first, the coffin is not in the tomb, but most of the jars containing the baby's bones are in the tomb, and only two are outside." Of course, it may be that the monks dragged the coffin out and put the jar in, but this is very unreasonable, isn't it? Second, the time of burial of the jar and the coffin should be very close, or the person who put the jar in knows the tomb very well, because the tomb has not been destroyed, but the hidden exit of the tomb has been rebuilt, and it is buried from the outside, but strangely, they have removed some wall bricks in the tomb to block the exit. I can't figure out why there are so many of them. Thirdly, the bones of the baby in the jar are by no means dynastic, and in terms of the degree of decay, they are at least one or two hundred years apart. Fourth, the eunuch in that coffin could never be the one who cultivated physical immortality. ”

Researcher Qian's words did not solve the confusion in my heart, but deepened it. I simply stopped going into this topic, "Is it because of the analysis of these doubts that you have become the public enemy of the academic community?" I asked.

"The academic world is a river and lake, and it also pays attention to sects, teachers and generations, but people here think that they are intellectuals, so they can not abide by the morality and rules of the rivers and lakes, and it is normal to hold a cane with an open fire and stab a knife in the back. Associate Researcher Qian smiled a little sadly, "But the tombs under the tower, we cleaned them up at that time, after all, we will build houses to live in the future, why there are still those strange things now, I don't understand." ”

"Old Qian, in the living tomb where you touched the Dao, did you use human animals or other things to form a formation to cultivate?" Before I knew it, I had changed my name to him.

"No, there are occasional corpses sent in through the passage, but the formation cultivators have never encountered them. Associate Researcher Qian replied in the affirmative.

When he said goodbye to him, he specially gave me his hand-drawn plan of the excavation site, and repeatedly told me that academics belong to academics, cases belong to cases, and living tombs are just a speculation for him, but I don't have to associate the case with gods and ghosts.

On the way back, Xiao Lei asked me while driving, what Associate Researcher Qian said sounded too whimsical and shocking, can you believe it?

I smiled and replied to him, "What about believing it?" What about not believing it? There is only one fact of all the facts, depending on which angle you look at. And there are many kinds of truths, depending on which one you want to believe.

"If Associate Researcher Qian is telling the truth, then the truth may be something we don't want to accept. Uncle Chang, you see, according to what he said, the eunuch in the tomb is not the main owner of refining the flesh and not rotting, and the coffin is outside, which means that someone has occupied the nestle, and the person dragged the coffin out, and put four cylinders in it, and in the process of cultivation, when he ran out of two, he dragged them out and buried them, and replaced them with two. Xiao Lei said two sentences while driving.

Xiao Lei said it very casually, but he felt enlightened to me. I couldn't help but be amazed by his analytical and reasoning skills, and praised him, and let him continue.

"Uncle Chang, I'm just talking about fun, don't laugh at it. I'm thinking, the passage that Lao Qian said should have been dug later, turning the dead tomb into a living tomb, and then blocking the passage, there are only two possibilities, one is that you don't want the people who have cultivated inside to come out, and the other is that the people have already come out, and the passage is built to death, keeping it a secret, and Associate Researcher Qian did not find other corpses in the tomb, so the immortal cultivators must have come out. Xiao Lei's judgment is basically the same as my thoughts, but his later words still untie a big knot in the course of the story.

"I think the reason why the tomb is built with bricks and stones is not because those people don't have the right materials at hand, so they chose this stupid method, you want to tear down the wall from the inside, which is dangerous and laborious, why bother? I think it should be to confuse the excavators, so that they will not know the exact time of the construction of the dead passage, thinking that the passage and the tomb are being repaired at the same time. ”

"Xiao Lei, I can't see it, you are still a top student majoring in criminal investigation. I patted him on the shoulder, which made Xiao Lei feel excited, his hand shook, and the car drew an arc on the road.

"Uncle Chang, don't bury me, this is not all taught by Team Cao. Xiao Lei hurriedly straightened the steering wheel.

"Team Cao doesn't seem to have you for two, you kid is quite good at slapping the leader's ass. I smiled at Ray.

"Team Cao's name is wise and foolish, he has thought of many things, and he knows it in his heart, but he doesn't say it, I don't have any heart, and he thinks of what to say. Uncle Chang, why do you say they covered up the dead passage?"

"Xiao Lei, your analysis is very correct, the hidden time must not be discovered by future generations, they can't be so careful about what will happen hundreds of years later. This shows that they have just built the passage that died not long ago, and they know that this tomb is about to be exposed, and the remedy they want to do, they must be the archaeological team, or us. It's a pity that they underestimate the old money. As soon as I said this, I felt a chill all over my body.

"Uncle Chang, are you saying that the people who built the passage of death are by our side, and the people who can't die are also?" Xiao Lei's words already trembled slightly.

"Xiao Lei, this is all our speculation, we will go to the police station to find Xiao Zhang immediately, and we must find out the situation of the surrounding residents, especially the Mawang Village. Also, you can contact the Antiquities Bureau tomorrow and send the bones of those babies for examination, I want to know the approximate time of their deaths. ”

When I rushed to the police station and found Xiao Zhang, it was already more than one o'clock, and Xiao Zhang was about to go out for lunch when he was pulled back by Xiao Lei. As soon as he heard that it was me, Xiao Zhang was very excited, and shook hands with me very excitedly, saying that Xiao Lei had told him my stories a long time ago, and had been looking forward to meeting him. He didn't eat anymore, so he called someone to help us buy a box lunch and came back, so he turned over the file he had sorted out before, and went to the household registration department to bring back a few large stacks. As we flipped through it, he introduced us to it.

At present, there are 680 houses in this community, and a total of 280 houses are allocated to Wangshang Village, and only 49 households live in them, while the tower is allocated to 72 houses in the village, but only 10 households live in it. There are more than 900 households in Wangshang Village, and with the construction of the second and third phases of the new village, each household will be guaranteed to have a new house.

Wangshang Village was called Mawang Village in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was just a small village of about 100 households, at that time, the people in the village in addition to farming, transported water, vegetables, timber, and charcoal to the city were the main livelihoods, so there was a very lively market in the south of the village in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were many merchants who came and went, and tourists who went to Xishan often rested here.

There are two big families in the village, one is the Wang family and the other is the Ma family, so there is the name of Mawang Village. When the warlords were in trouble, these two families were broken, many people in the Ma family moved to the city to make a living, there were still more than 20 families in the village, and the Wang family had more than 40 families. When the commune was established in the 50s, it merged the two surrounding villages and renamed them Wangshang Village, but the location and general layout of the village have not changed much in recent decades. Later, this area was collectively called Jianqu Commune, and it has been until now.

The land used for this new farmer village project is mainly the land of Wangshang Village, but there are very few requisitioned homesteads, most of which are vegetable plots that have been flattened and changed from the original mass graves, so although many people in the village have divided their houses, there are not many people who are willing to move there, and they feel that it is too shady.

After the liberation, especially after the property was delivered to the household, to whom was the family was distributed? Xiao Zhang thought for a while and said: "There was an ancestral tomb of the Ma family in the south of the tower, and I remember that three years ago, the people of the Ma family had a dispute with the developer, and they also moved their hands and injured people, and we went to the police, and then we negotiated and resolved, so in the new village, the Ma family was divided into six suites, two in the tower, and four in the five-story building, which I was very impressed. The land in the tower turned out to be a vegetable field, and it is very likely that it was contracted to the Ma family, and I can check this immediately, and I may not be able to find out what happened before liberation. ”

I nodded, thanked Xiao Zhang, and said: "I'm here to slowly look at the household registration information, Xiao Zhang checks the land situation of the foundation of the tower, the more detailed the better, if you are running the construction unit early, they are the first to enter the field, maybe they can find something, Xiao Lei worked hard to go to the Cultural Relics Bureau, verify the baby's bones, we meet here after dark, I invite you to have a good meal, reward, and we will go to the tower in the evening." ”
