Chapter 009: Black Spirit Crystal Soul
The three of us cautiously dived into the sorghum field, the sorghum branches and leaves that were blown by the cool breeze that wandered back and forth in the mountains swayed, giving us excellent cover, and we walked through the sorghum field for more than ten meters, and by the dim moonlight overhead, we saw a man sitting on the gravel and smoking. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The dark red cigarette butt flickered on and off, and the face of the person reflected was also hidden from time to time, I clenched the electric baton in my hand, and Fang Ze glanced at each other, the two of them shot together, and came to the person in two steps, in the stunned eyes of the man, he was put down with an electric baton, and then the electric baton was quickly clicked twice in the person's heart, and I saw that the person was convulsed, and his face suddenly became iron-blue, and he completely lost the strength to resist.
I tied the man with a rope, gagged him in the mouth, and threw him into the sorghum field on the side. Fang Ze took out his flashlight, grabbed the rope that hung down to the tomb and jumped down, and Li Yan and I followed.
The gloomy and damp breath rushed towards us, the black hole below, between the flashlight and the light pillars shaking, we finally found the direction of the tomb gate, after entering the tomb gate, Fang Ze illuminated the tomb road in front of us, and told us to walk carefully.
I looked at the angular tomb around me and sighed in my heart, how much manpower would it take to build. The silence in the empty tomb was incomparable, and the sound of footsteps and echoes was superimposed on each other as I walked, causing me to have a staggered confusion.
We didn't encounter the kind of powerful tomb path mechanism we saw on TV, Fang Ze was also a little fortunate in his heart, Fang Ze was a good hand at dealing with ghosts, but if he encountered a powerful tomb path mechanism, he could only dodge it. No matter how high you are, you will be flesh and blood after all, those ghosts and evil spirits with strong yin qi may not be able to kill you at once, but that strong bow and crossbow can easily penetrate the body.
There are a lot of reliefs carved on the surrounding stone walls, Li Yan and I looked at it curiously, and the reliefs are painted in the life of Princess Xiao Yan, from birth to death.
Li Yan stroked the carved reliefs, and let out an exclamation in her mouth: "Don't say anything else, just these few reliefs unearthed will cause turmoil." It's so subtle and lifelike. ”
This kind of relief Fang Ze had obviously seen it many times, and there was not much surprise on his face, but he set his eyes on the middle relief.
It depicts a marriage picture, some like the picture of "Zhaojun Out of the Plug", Xiao Yan in the sedan chair is wearing a phoenix crown and a xia veil, looking forward to the wilderness scenery, and on the other side is a team of welcoming relatives. The focus of this painting is on Xiao Yan, so the greeting team is not very obvious. I could only see a few swaying figures, and I couldn't tell the difference.
Fang Ze let out a light "huh", his eyes were fixed on the person at the head of the greeting team, and his tone became a little solemn: "This person seems to be wearing a Taoist robe. ”
I took a closer look, and there was a vague outline on the man's chest that resembled a gossip map, and there seemed to be some lines on it, like a gossip figure, and there was something similar to a dust whisk on his left arm waving in the wind. According to the ancient wedding customs, the person at the head of the wedding team should be the groom: "Could it be that Princess Xiao Yan married a Taoist priest back then?" "I asked uncertainly, didn't Fang Ze say that Xiao Yan had ever been a princess?
This kind of harmony is generally between countries, in order to avoid war and peace, to maintain a long-term harmony of marriage, generally and the princess is not married to the king of another country or the prince, how can you marry a Taoist priest? Could it be that the crown prince and emperor of another country were a monastic?
At this moment, a terrible scream came from the depths of the tomb, and Fang Ze and I subconsciously turned off the flashlight, and listened to the specific location of the sound with bated breath. Li Yan's reaction was also not small, she directly grabbed my hand tightly, and her whole body leaned over, and I could deeply feel Li Yan's body trembling slightly.
To be honest, I was also a little scared in my heart, but with Li Yan in front of me, I couldn't hide behind other girls, I grabbed Li Yan's hand, and through the warmth conveyed by my palm, Li Yan's nervous mood and I calmed down a little.
The screams crashed back and forth through the narrow catacombs, making it impossible for us to tell where we were. After the sound subsided, Fang Ze beckoned us to continue walking.
A few of us walked more than ten meters, and when we saw the huge mural in front of us, the speculation in our hearts had become a reality, which clearly depicted a loving couple, and the handsome Xiao Yan looked at a man in a Taoist robe standing next to him with affection.
Fang Ze glanced at the Taoist priest in the painting and told me to be careful, behind this mural, there should be a burial area. The tomb passage after the mural has changed abruptly, and the originally straight tomb passage has become a thousand turns. Not only that, but there were also a lot of bones on the ground.
Seeing the corpses that had turned into white bones, I swallowed my saliva, and Li Yan, the girl, reacted even more, hiding directly behind me, her breathing became disordered, and when she touched the bones on the ground slightly, the girl exclaimed in fright.
Walking in this already gloomy cemetery, my nerves were already very tight, and I was a little nervous when I was so frightened by Li Yan. After walking about ten meters, I said to Li Yan: "Li Yan, why don't I send you up, I'm afraid that if you continue to walk like this, you will have a heart attack." ”
Li Yan glanced at me and didn't say anything, still tiptoeing towards the front of the tomb. Seeing this girl's actions, I smiled bitterly, and said in my heart that Li Yan This girl is really a little lonely, obviously not bold, but she has a strong curiosity.
Fang Ze is not as taboo as us, walking from the graveyard with a big thorn, completely ignoring the dry bones on the ground, sometimes his feet still step on the bones and make a "rattling" sound, my scalp is a little numb when I hear this sound.
Seeing Li Yan's cautious appearance, I walked over and slowly squatted down and beckoned Li Yan: "Come up." Li Yan was a little embarrassed, but she still climbed on my back, and felt Li Yan's rapid heartbeat slowly become calm, and my nervous mood slowly subsided, and I followed Fang Ze and walked in this tomb.
Fang Ze saw where I was walking and warned me: "Don't walk against the tomb wall, some mechanisms are designed on the tomb wall." "Let me walk in the center of this cemetery, let me look ahead, don't think about the bones on the ground, and walk calmly.
I listened to Fang Ze's words and slowly walked towards the center of the tomb.
From the fragments of clothing left on these bones, it can be determined that these people should be the craftsmen who built the cemetery. After walking for about three minutes, Li Yan on my back became a little strange, looking left and right, as if looking for something. It caused me to almost fall into the pile of bones several times, and turned my head to ask Li Yan: "Li Yan, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Yan whispered in my ear: "I don't know if it's my delusion, but after walking all the way, I always feel as if someone is staring at us." When I looked back, I saw that there was only a bare stone wall behind me. ”
The hot breath from Li Yan's mouth blew on my ears, making my ears itch, but the words that came out of this girl's mouth made my heart almost rise to my throat, and I turned my head and looked at the tomb in disbelief, only to see the stone wall of the black hole, and the bones all over the ground, and nothing else. I exhaled, "Don't scare me, you can't make such jokes at this time." ”
Li Yan snorted lightly and pinched my waist, saying Do you think I look like a joke? I gasped and hurriedly said that it didn't look like it, but I didn't take Li Yan's words to heart in my heart, because girls always like to be suspicious.
But when I saw two modern corpses around the bend, I was startled, because one of the two people who fell to the ground was the same one who had driven us. Li Yan was also very nervous, and the hand around my neck suddenly tightened.
The man was stiff, his eyes wide, but there was no wound on his body, as if he had seen something terrible, and he was scared to death.
"Look here." Li Yan greeted me and Fang Ze, because the panicked voice became a little trembling, Fang Ze and I looked at the stone wall next to it in the direction of Li Yan's finger, and our eyes were suddenly attracted by the vision.
There were two black figures on the stone wall over there, and the dark shadows were slowly fading, and what made me strange was that the shadow could move, and its limbs kept shaking, as if something in the stone wall was dragging it again, and even though he was unwilling, he was still dragged in, and the stone wall returned to its original state again.
Seeing this vision, I swallowed: "What's going on? ”
Fang Ze glanced up and down at the stone wall, took out the rooster blood from his backpack, and splashed it on the stone wall. This time it was terrible, I saw bursts of white smoke rising from the stone wall, and the terrible and miserable screams came from all directions, and the originally smooth surface of the stone wall actually had ripples like water ripples, and between the ripples, faces with a cruel smile appeared from the stone wall!
I was so frightened that I took a step back, and then I felt my shoulders tighten, and then a huge force came to pull me on the stone wall, and when I turned my head, I saw a miserable white arm stretched out from the stone wall grabbed my shoulder, and then countless miserable white smiling faces appeared on the stone wall, and before I could scream, I saw countless arms stretched out from it, tightly clamped me, and dragged me step by step into the stone wall!
Despite my struggles, I couldn't get rid of the arms that were trying to pull me into hell! At this time, I used all my strength to throw Li Yan aside on my back, afraid that Li Yan would follow in my footsteps.
"it!" Seeing this, Fang Ze scolded, bit his middle finger, and threw the blood onto the wall, those hideous grimaces immediately let out a burst of screams and disappeared, and the stone wall where countless human heads emerged just now was now back to its original state.
When I was freed, I immediately stayed away from the stone wall, for fear that an arm would come out of it to pull me, looking at the stone wall that had returned to its original state, I kept swallowing my saliva: "Brother Ze, what's going on with this stone wall?" ”
Li Yan also recovered from the shock and panic just now, looked at Shibi in horror, came to me and looked me up and down, and asked with concern: "Ye Yang, are you okay?" ”
I waved my hand and said it was okay, but my eyes kept staring at Fang Ze, hoping that Fang Ze could give me an explanation, the scene that appeared just now was really weird.
Fang Ze took out a sharp knife from his bag and scraped it twice on the stone wall, I was surprised to see that there was dark red viscous juice oozing out of the stone wall, and the rancid smell came to my face, Li Yan and I couldn't help but cover our mouths and noses.
"It's the Black Spirit Crystal Soul!" Fang Ze had a shocked look on his face, telling us that this Black Spirit Crystal Soul was a long-lost evil art, a kind of soul-killing spirit body that had been refined by some unscrupulous cultivators in ancient times.
It is said that the process of making it was extremely cruel, first the people were locked in a sealed space, they were not given food or drink for five or six days, and only when the people were hungry and about to eat people, then they were given a large amount of chicken soup water.
Doesn't that sound cruel? I asked strangely, "If you don't give you food and drink for a long time, and then supply a large amount of food after that, do you want to kill these people?" ”
"Death?" Fang Ze smiled: "Do you know what kind of chicken they ate and fed it?" Without waiting for me to answer, Fang Ze answered directly: "Those chickens grew up eating cinnabar mixed with dog blood since they were children, and then they were cooked by the caster with talisman water, and those who ate them, the blood and soul will be integrated." ”
As he spoke, Fang Ze slapped the stone wall: "After that, these people will be brutally killed, and these people will die full of resentment." Then collect the blood of the deceased and paint it on the wall, and then paint a layer of mercury on the outside, and seal the soul of the deceased with deep resentment in the stone wall, and it cannot be transcended in life and life. This black spirit crystal soul can be considered to be successfully refined. The black spirit crystal soul that has been nourished by the yin temperature for many years can easily drag a person's soul out of the body. Assimilating them into one of them, they can only live within this narrow wall, suffering from it. ”
It is precisely because of this characteristic of the Black Spirit Crystal Soul that it was very favored by ancient emperors, and some monarchs did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to invite those evil cultivators to refine the Black Spirit Crystal Soul for themselves. However, because the production method is quite cruel, it often requires tens of thousands of people to sacrifice. There were few black spirit crystal souls in the tombs of emperors in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but I didn't expect that there were also in the tombs of the Southern Liang Dynasty.
After listening to Fang Ze's words, before I could react from the shock, I heard a flustered footsteps coming from behind, superimposed with the echo, as if thousands of troops were coming.
I was surprised: "Is there anyone else eyeing this tomb?" ”
