Chapter 27: The Sword Hanging in the Tomb

Prying people's ancestral graves and cutting off people's feng shui is an extremely vicious practice in the rivers and lakes. It's more terrible than killing one or two people.

Niu Ercheng died, and the Niu family was just one less child. But if there is a problem with feng shui, the whole clan, the descendants and grandchildren will all be unlucky.

Lu Xin doesn't seem to kill, and he seems to be weak. But what to do next is the most ruthless revenge on Niu Ercheng.

For a wealthy family that has been rooted for more than a hundred years, unless the people of its nine clans are destroyed, there is indeed no way to make it decay quickly. But the feng shui mystics that have been handed down since ancient times can do it. In the Tang Dynasty, the word feng shui was the foundation of a family or even an entire empire. It is normal for ordinary people to want to find a treasure land after death, and for the emperor to want to get a dragon vein after death. Because in the eyes of the ancients, if you can be buried in the feng shui treasure cave after death, you can shade the future generations.

Lu Xin didn't know whether the record in the "Fashan Land Burial Sutra" was true or false, but he had to give it a try, otherwise it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

The carriage jolted along the mountain road, and the moonlight shone down from the high sky, reflecting the dark mountains in the distance. In such a wilderness, the sound of leaves blown by the wind can be terrifying. Niu Ercheng was extremely frightened, shrunk in the corner and trembled the whole time, not even daring to look out. He was afraid that the boy in the carriage would kill him, and then throw his body into the wild and be eaten by wild beasts. This kind of death is obviously extremely tragic.

"Big young master, there are still three miles to go to Tianfeng Mountain. Do you want to go up by yourself, or do you want to be accompanied by an old slave? ”

The driver was an old man over half a hundred years old, and Niu Ercheng went directly to the horse circle to find him. Although he didn't know what his young master was doing in Tianfeng Mountain in the middle of the night, at his age, even if he felt weird, he wouldn't ask more.

"Less, less... How do I answer? ”

"Heh, if you want to die, I naturally don't mind killing one more."

"Got it, got it. Old Liutou, young master, I will go up the mountain by myself, and you will wait at the foot of the mountain. ”

Niu Ercheng looked up at Lu Xin and the corpse in his arms, and suddenly shuddered and nodded again and again. Looking at it at this time, Tian Yu'er's corpse was dressed in a big red wedding dress, blending into this boundless darkness, which was really creepy. Niu Ercheng realized that he had walked with a dead man all the way.

"Shaoxia, I, I, what are we going to do in the ancestral grave? But you said, don't kill me. ”

"Hehehehe, if I don't kill you, I naturally won't break my promise. As long as you swear at the grave of your ancestors, you will not be evil again in the future. At the same time, if Sister Yu'er is buried in the ancestral grave, the grievances between you and me will be written off. ”

"Is that enough?"

Although Niu Ercheng didn't know the true purpose of Lu Xin's coming to Tianfeng Mountain, after repeatedly confirming that he didn't have to die, his expression relaxed a little. In his opinion, as long as he can save his life, everything else is not important. What feng shui, what family, compared to his own life, is worthless. As for Tian Yu'er, he Niu Ercheng used eight sedan chairs, and Ming Media was marrying him. Although it is a concubine, it is also a Niu family. As long as it is not passed on, it has little to do with being buried in the ancestral grave.

Three and a half miles away, the coachman parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain. Because it is the dojo of Jiuyang Temple, the road up the mountain has been specially repaired, and the stone steps are paved throughout the process, which is very convenient. Niu Ercheng led the way in front, and Lu Xin followed closely with Tianyu'er's body. It was getting late, and it was a deserted wilderness, so Lu Xin was not worried that Niu Ercheng would cheat.

After walking up the stone steps for half an hour, a path appeared on the right side of the steps. Niu Ercheng turned in, and it was a standard wild road, less than three feet wide, and full of fallen leaves. On the left side of the road is the Tianfeng Mountain massif, and on the right hand side is the cliff. Obviously, this road is not usually walked by many people.

Lu Xin looked out of the cliff, and the location at this time should be the mountainside section of Tianfeng Mountain. Niu Ercheng said that if you want to reach the Jiuyang Temple at the foot of the mountain, you also have to go up from the trail on the mountainside. But the opposite of the path he took. Lu Xin observed the scenery along the way, Tianfeng Mountain was facing the east, facing the direction of the sunrise. Beneath the cliffs is a large river that rolls into the sea, and there are bustling ancient towns on all sides.

The mountainside was about 800 meters above sea level, and Lu Xin followed Niu Ercheng on the narrow path for two quarters of an hour, and a downward slope appeared in front of him. Because it's night, the sight is very bad. Looking down from above, you can vaguely see a waterhole at the end of the slope. The sound of gurgling water resounded through the valley, adding a touch of deep mountain tranquility.

"The ancestral grave of our Niu family is in the cave behind the waterhole. There are 23 tombs, nine generations. However, it is a bit cumbersome to open the tomb door, and you need the help of young heroes. ”

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense and keep walking."

Lu Xin sneered and urged Niu Ercheng to lead the way. When we arrived at the waterhole, it was just near the hour. The moonlight is thick, and everything is silent. The waterhole was not large, it was shaped like a lunar disk, and its diameter was only seven or eight feet. But the water is alive, and by the wind, it flows into the valley from all directions. Standing by the waterhole, you can smell the rich fragrance of flowers. It's spring, and it's night. It stands to reason that when you are in the mountains, you will feel cold. Especially on the edge of this pool, the cold rises, and the human body will be eroded by moisture after standing for a long time. But in this place, Lu Xin didn't feel any discomfort, but there was a special warm current around him.

"Uncle Wu once said that when sword refining masters build divine weapons, they like to use spring water taken from the deep mountains and cold pools to temper the sword body. Among them, there is a kind of water, which is warm to the touch, but can instantly become extremely cold when exposed to fire, and it is the divine water for making weapons. Is this pool the legendary ......?"

Lu Xin was a little shocked, and couldn't help squatting down and touching the pool with his hand. Sure enough, it was warm, and it felt like forty or fifty degrees. Lu Xin was sure that this should be a hot spring connected to geothermal heat, but it was not the legendary sword refining divine water, and he couldn't be sure. Rao is like this, the location of the ancestral tomb of the Niu family is enough to be called a treasure of feng shui.

Opening the tomb door on the rock wall requires two people to operate at the same time. Niu Ercheng asked Lu Xin to hold down the mechanism hidden in the stone crevice, and he took the key from his neck and inserted it into the lock at the other end. The tomb gate is large, two stories high. As the tomb door was slowly opened, the entire mountain shook.

"A small Niu family can build a big tomb in a famous mountain, let alone an emperor and a general. Dragon Vein...... Hmph, it will always be the wealth of those in power. This world is really never fair. Fortunately, a thousand years later, China is no longer obsessed with these. ”

After entering the tomb door, Niu Ercheng lit the oil lamp in the tomb. A huge space appeared in front of me, a cave that had been completely carved out by hand. More than two dozen stone tombs are scattered all over the place, seemingly chaotic, but in fact they all surround a sarcophagus in the middle.

The sarcophagus was placed in the center of the top of the cavern. It is very large, three meters high, navy blue, and I don't know what material it is made of. This is both a coffin and a tomb.

"The one buried in the sarcophagus,

Is it the earliest ancestor of your Niu family? ”

"Yes, that is the ancestor of the last nine generations, and it is said to be a joint burial tomb. Among them, the ancestor is the only one in our Niu family who has ever been an official, and he has achieved a good grade, and he is a very good minister. But after that, the ancestors made a rule that the descendants of the Niu family were not allowed to enter the court as officials for generations. ”

"Hmph, I didn't ask you so much, let's get some sleep."

Lu Xin snorted coldly, and suddenly stunned Niu Ercheng from behind. Now that he has arrived at the place, Niu Ercheng is naturally useless. What's more, what he is going to do next can't be known to the people of the Niu family.

Carrying Tian Yu'er's body to the sarcophagus, Lu Xin began to look for a way to open the sarcophagus. With such a large stone coffin, the lid of the coffin alone is extremely heavy, not to mention one person, even three or five sturdy men are difficult to push open. Lu Xin must have a mechanism, and after circling the sarcophagus twice, he felt a groove at the end of the coffin.

Bang!

The lid of the coffin slowly opened at a very slow speed, and Lu Xin jumped on the lid of the coffin to look inside, and his originally calm expression instantly froze. A large amount of gold, silver and jewelry were hidden in the coffin, and at the same time, two bodies, a man and a woman, were lying. What shocked Lu Xin was not the dazzling gold and silver, but the two motionless corpses. Or rather, it was two people asleep. Because there is no trace of decay on the corpse, and the face is ruddy and lifelike. Even the makeup on the woman's face was still there.

But the body had no heartbeat and was not breathing, and it was certain that it was dead. Judging from the official uniform on the man's body, he should be from the Southern Dynasties. Lu Xin couldn't understand how the bodies of the nine generations of ancestors of the Niu family remained immortal for a hundred years.

"That's?"

Suddenly, the female corpse's head moved. Immediately after that, the whole body rises up, as if to sit up. Lu Xin held his breath and forcibly didn't scream. Then, he saw a sword rise from the woman's back, hanging in the air, emitting bursts of soft light similar to topaz. And in the soft light, there seems to be some kind of scene, like a movie picture interpreting something. But the scene was extremely vague, and it seemed to be nothing. Looking at it with his eyes, the sword body is about one foot seven inches, the whole body is dark yellow, its blade is as thin as a cicada's wings, and the hilt of the sword is carved with the portrait of a unicorn.

Lu Xin couldn't help but gasp, the scene in front of him was too shocking and incredible. A sword, just hanging out of thin air. Moreover, it flew out of a coffin. He followed the mute Wu to practice swords for two years, and he had also heard of some divine weapons on the rivers and lakes. But he had never heard the mute Wu say that there was a kind of sword in this world that could fly into the air by itself.

Seeing the sword body trembling slightly in the void, Lu Xin even felt that the sword was breathing, with its own thoughts. The subconscious mind told him that this thing was related to him.

Lu Xin wanted to reach out to take it, but when he was about to hold the hilt of the sword, a cold wind blew from the back of his neck. Then an inexplicable force pressed down on his back, so heavy that he almost fell into the sarcophagus.
