Chapter 721: Ascension to Heaven After Death
Becoming an immortal after death is a dream of countless ancient Chinese people.
Chinese religion is based on Taoism and Buddhism, and both Taoism and Buddhism have the doctrine of becoming immortals after death.
Taoism calls death to ascend to heaven, and the dead body is called a posthumous corpse, Buddhism believes that it is to go to the West after death, become a Buddha and become a Bodhisattva, become an Arhat, and the body is called a stinky skin, anyway, it is a meaning, that is, the "operation" is proper during life, whether it is alchemy or doing good meditation, you can abandon ** after death, the spirit will live forever, ascend to the heavenly palace Buddha realm, avoid the suffering of the six reincarnations, and finally live with heaven and earth, and enjoy it forever.
This statement seems ridiculous now, but in ancient times, there were many people who believed that even Genghis Khan, the Qin Emperor of the Han Dynasty, who established eternal meritorious deeds, could not get rid of this trap, and they all did a series of foolish things at the expense of the people and money.
This Li Bucai is an old eunuch who has lived for more than 100 years, and it stands to reason that the longer he lives, the more he understands, but this guy is still superstitious about the saying "ascending to heaven after death" in his later years.
His tomb is beautiful, eight copper pillars carved with exquisite patterns are divided into two rows, supporting the huge tomb top, there are countless gold and jade vessels on the ground, pavilions and pavilions are flying, flowing water is murmuring, the mountains and stones are handsome, the surrounding stone walls are painted with cranes and clouds, and the inverted bowl-shaped dome is the sun, moon and stars Milky Way Hongqiao......
Although it is in the world, it is better than fairyland.
The layout of the building in the tomb is dark and the image of the eight dragons and the eight dragons of the drought, and corresponds to the twenty-four mountains of the compass, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth are complete, the Kankun Zhenxun dry is equipped with the gossip, there is a circle of artificial water flow like a jade belt around the waist, there is a hundred-year-old dragon tree growing in the middle palace, and the hundred-year-old tree is guarded by eight brass coffins.
The eight bronze coffins are painted with gold and silver, with exquisite patterns, respectively engraved with iron canes and Li lying sticks to drink, Han Xiangzi treading waves and blowing flutes, He Xiangu smiling and holding lotus, and Zhang Guolao riding a donkey......
Even if he hated the itchy root of his teeth for this old eunuch, Chen Yi had to let out a heartfelt exclamation, this old dog's day really played the immortal after death!
"No wonder there are so many Tufuzi in the world, even if they know that they will die in a backward fight, they have no scruples!"
The Snake King was shocked by the scene in front of him, and his slender eyes flashed, "There are so many burial goods, any one of them is priceless, and this tomb alone can catch up with the harvest of my snake catcher clan for decades!"
Snake Heart instantly committed the common problem of women, and when she saw the jewels, her eyes were full of little stars, and she muttered to herself: "Snake King, even if you can't catch the remaining two beasts, the funeral goods here are worth it!"
Snake Eyes still didn't speak as always, but the corners of his mouth that were cracked to the base of his ears also revealed his thoughts.
Chen Yi looked at the three of them, shook his head helplessly, the layman looked at the lively insider, compared to the gold and silver jewelry, the feng shui layout here is rare.
The layout of this tomb is a typical legend of the "fairy island Penglai Bureau", those gold and jade utensils luminous orbs have become secondary, the real big stroke is the artificial water flow that symbolizes the ocean and the ancient dragon tree in the middle that symbolizes infinite vitality!
Water is the source of life, Mubao Yongchang, these two things alone have already given the "Endless Immortal Island" a skeleton and foundation.
In the middle, the sixteen dragons of dry water are either raised and prominent, or low-lying vertically and horizontally, and the twenty-four mountains of the compass have filled the feng shui flesh and blood in this tomb to the extreme perfection, not to mention that the tomb is still built on the "three-legged tripod game" of the big dragon vein of Shennongjia.
This is really a flow, a source, full of aura, and full of vitality!
Although the scale is not large, only about 1,000 square meters, it is not the same as those princely tombs that hollow out the entire mountain at every turn, but only in terms of Xianjia feng shui, I don't know how many streets I have thrown off those nouveau riche!
He Qingqing saw the thousand-year-old dragon descending tree in front of him, and thought of his dead eldest brother again, his nose was sore, and tears flowed down again.
"This is the place where the ancestors of the He family obtained the Dragon Descending Wood, right?"
Chen Yi pointed to a tree branch that had been cut down in front of him, although hundreds of years had passed, and several branches had emitted around the branch, but the traces of the cut were still there.
And the ancestor of the He family should have stood here and cut down the branch, making a "crappy" coffin for his old friend.
The location of several people is a collapsed place on the top of the tomb, compared to the entire beautifully painted tomb top, it is like an ugly scar here, but it is precisely because of this that the ancestors of the He family will dig a robbery hole here and enter the tomb, which is much less effort than other places here, and it is precisely like this, so that Chen Yi and others entered this place before the corpse worm rushed back, and it happened to save their lives.
They were standing on top of a huge rock that had been warped out, almost level with the top of the tomb, and through the verdant foliage in front of them, they could see everything inside the tomb.
"Prudence can catch thousands of cicadas, be careful to make a 10,000-year-old boat, a sentence that the old people in the family often chant about, but why didn't I take it to heart?"
He Qingqing's expression was gloomy, not without remorse, the reason why the old ancestor was able to leave here, in addition to his own high ability, another important reason was to be cautious!
There were holes left by their ancestors on their heads, traces of their ancestors' climbing tools, and there was no trace of man-made under them, so it can be inferred that her ancestors returned the same way after cutting down the branches, unseduced by the touching funerary objects in front of them.
Alas, compared to him, He Qingqing felt that he was more than a star and a half worse in terms of skill and temperament.
Chen Yi didn't have so many sorrows, but quickly set up a "turtle breath formation" on this upturned rock, hiding his figure, and then sat down cross-legged, grasping the spiritual power in his body.
He didn't believe that Li Bucai's old eunuch would be poor in donkey skills!
Before entering the tomb, so many moths came out, and when you entered here, you can't trap everywhere and kill every step?
Now Chen Yi is inseparable from spiritual power every step he takes, and the "universal great return pill" that can quickly recover - dragon blood has long been exhausted in the Qimen ** array, that thing can be said to be a non-renewable resource, if it is gone, it will be gone, otherwise he would not be helpless in the face of those corpse cockroaches.
The snake monarch and snake eyes also had the same thoughts as Chen Yi, sitting down cross-legged, his body stretched and contracted like a snake, his mouth made a very rhythmic hissing sound, quickly breathed out, absorbed the spiritual power into the dantian, and then flowed to the limbs and hundreds of remains.
There is a big dragon vein here, rich in spiritual power, full of vitality, otherwise in this place where there is no light of day, just with those dozen night pearls can not support this huge dragon descending ancient tree.
The tomb had been silent for hundreds of years, and after a period of noise just now, it was silent again, the Night Pearl continued to radiate a soft glow, and the Ancient Tree of the Descending Dragon was still lonely stretching its branches.
About ten minutes later, a "click" sound suddenly came from the dead tomb.
"What sound?"
The snake heart awoke suddenly, and looked at a place on the top of the diagonal tomb, from which the voice came from.
He Qingqing also heard it, held her breath, looked there with hatred on her face.
Chen Yi opened his eyes, looked at them, and said, "Don't be impatient." ”
The snake monarch stopped the hissing and strange roar, looked at Chen Yi, and then looked at the vermilion formation around his body, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, revealing an evil smile, and immediately regained his calmness.
"Click......"
The strange noise became louder and louder, as if sharp claws were frantically scratching at the rocks, and there was a "boom" sound of metal intersecting, as if the evil spirit was constantly dragging the chains.
"Boom la la ......"
Suddenly, the place where the sound came from collapsed, and the murals that had been preserved for thousands of years were peeled off in large pieces, and more than a dozen green bricks fell off from there and fell on the white marble octagonal pavilion directly below.
"Bang bang bang!"
The roof of the tomb there was about five or six stories above the ground, and the green bricks fell and shattered, and several cracks appeared on the white marble.
"Tweet ......"
A small, strange-looking head covered in scale armor poked out from where the brick fell, and it glanced at the burial chamber a few times, then quickly turned to go up. When he turned around, a broad tail covered with blue-gray scales, more than half a meter long, appeared.
"Boom la la ......"
The soil continued to fall, it should have been rubbed down when the thing climbed up, Chen Yi frowned, he didn't understand very well, where did the pangolin come from in this ghost place?
"It is a pangolin raised by mountain movers, specially used to dig ancient tombs, much faster and safer than manpower to dig holes!"
He Qingqing seemed to see Chen Yi's doubts, gritted her teeth, and had a hint of coldness.
"Dig through. ”
"You have a wound, don't come down. ”
"Okay, then be careful. ”
After a few brief conversations, a figure appeared from the place where it had fallen, looked around a few times, and listened with bated breath for a while, as if it did not notice anything unusual, and then slowly leaned out, lowered the rope, and was about to slide down.
"Yang Fuchen?!"
He Qingqing's eyes were split, and he couldn't wait to devour Yang Fuchen alive.
"Don't move!"
Chen Yi let out a low snort, pressed He Qingqing's shoulder, and stopped her from getting up.
Yang Fuchen instantly stopped his movements, and his eagle-like eyes swept towards the hiding place of several people.
He Qingqing knew that he had attracted Yang Fuchen's attention, and a heart was raised to his throat, and he held his breath involuntarily, motionless, just secretly observing from the gap in the leaves.
At this moment, a loud cry sounded, startling several people's hearts to jump violently.
"Look for death!"
Chen Yi and the others were shocked, it seemed that his body had been exposed, and it didn't matter if he hid it any longer.
They were not afraid of Yang Fuchen himself, but for fear that he would know about their existence and choose to retreat and leave.
Finding the dragon wood is the main thing, but there is no room for error in killing these two grandsons!
But to their surprise, there was a muffled bang, and there was an extra person and a beast above Yang Fuchen, it was Yang Yunyi and the pangolin with an iron chain around his neck.
However, instead of sliding down the rope like Yang Fuchen, they opened their teeth and danced their claws, making an ugly free-fall movement, and fell straight down.
"Brute, I must have skinned you!"
Even if Yang Yunyi fell, he still shouted in his mouth, but the pangolin was "chirping" and screaming, and he was terrified.
