Chapter 101: The Lights Shine Forever (6)
"Hurry up and prepare, Yin Liping, you take my token to transfer the imperial thief army." Liu Dehao said to Wang Jixiang: "Fortunately, the emperor has left a hand for himself, you hurry up and transfer the soldiers of the Changling camp and the Jinzhou battalion, encircle the grass pavilion, and stop Your Majesty no matter what."
"Yes!"
Wu Nian asked, "Why is it called stopping Your Majesty?"
"The Emerald Tomb is not what you might think, and the most terrifying thing about it is not the danger inside. Yin Shenglin can handle the danger, but he can't handle those curses. Liu Dehao said: "It's too late, let's set off now, and I'll tell you on the way."
Xu Yan also arrived with You Xiu: "Lord Wang."
"Mr. You, you don't have to go with me." Liu Dehao said: "Stay in the capital to assist Liu Jiaotou in managing the city defense. You've just woken up and can't toss anymore. ”
"Didn't the prince just wake up? It's better to take me with you than not to bring me without. ”
"Can you compare with me?" Liu Dehao said: "This is an order, I said that if you don't let you go, don't go."
"Yes!"
Yin Liping and Liu Dehao first led the imperial thief army to Caoting, and Wang Jixiang took the Changling camp north to join the Jinzhou camp and surround Caoting from the north. On the way, Liu Dehao explained the true situation of the Jade Tomb to everyone.
In addition to the everlasting lantern that cannot be taken away, the Jade Tomb has another stone curse, but this is not known to many people. Every grave keeper will fall a curse when he dies, and outsiders are not allowed to take the land of the Emerald Mountain, the Emerald Tomb is a place of extreme yin, the resentment is already very strong, and the power of the curse is huge, so the curse has continued to this day.
According to an old tomb robber's diary, the tomb keepers once had their own faction, acted in a high-profile manner, and were often retaliated against, the living were killed, the dead were robbed, and the tomb robbers and tomb guards were incompatible, and they would inevitably find ways to make the other party fall into a state of death. In order to protect the tombs of their ancestors, the ancient tomb keepers made a curse: anyone who takes away the contents of the ancient tomb, even just a stone, or destroys the cemetery, will meet with bad luck, and those who do not repent will even die.
This legend has also been heard by some people who are imperial thieves, and when the Dou Kingdom was forty-three years old, the imperial thieves were in their heyday, and their reputation spread far and wide, and professionals from all over the world praised their tomb robbery methods of only taking money and not destroying them. A black country tomb robber secretly went to the grass pavilion near the "visit" of several large ancient tombs touched by the emperor, and also took a two-pound stone on the Emerald Mountain home, how do you know that when you get home, your daughter fell and broke her foot, and on the first day of the tomb after resting at home, he encountered a demon blocking the way and almost died, and then his wife fell seriously ill. At this time, he remembered the stone brought back from the Emerald Mountain, so he returned the stone to the Caoting County Ya, and told his misfortune, hoping to return the stone, so that he could finally get rid of his bad luck.
"Although this is just a legend, such a thing happened to our imperial thieves." People who have been to the tomb always like to secretly take some small things that seem worthless, but some are not simple.
Liu Dehao took out a pendant made of bones: "Actually, we have been under the jade tomb." This was taken by one of the brothers of the Imperial Thieves in the Jade Tomb before. "This is what the grave keeper or the nobles who hired the tomb keeper made out of the bones of slaves, and the bowl may be a human skull; The small horn may be a human leg bone; The locket may be a pelvic bone, and you don't know if you take it. Some people say that these things are easy to summon spirits if they are illegally possessed, and they can attract spirits from tombs. If you send a letter to a friend, it's really terrible.
"Someone, then?"
"Although I found someone for him to do and turn the ghost away, he still died because of a stroke." Liu Dehao said: "So you can't take the things in here, even if it's sand."
In the inner hall of many temples and shrines in the Dou Kingdom, there will be good letters to send dolls from time to time, especially some worn dolls, but do not take them, because these dolls have been put for many years, and it is possible that some people have transferred ghosts to dolls in order to get rid of evil spirits. People believe that there is spirituality, and they should burn the temple or worship it in the temple, otherwise it will harm the family. Therefore, the people of Dou don't like to buy old things at the stalls, so as not to provoke the spirit.
"There is also the curse of the Black Wolf King, we have no way of verifying who the Black Wolf King is, probably a god that the tomb keeper believes in." Although the grave keeper does not believe in the gods, he still has his own special beliefs, and the most widespread evil curse is naturally the curse of the black wolf king, as long as the person who destroys the tomb of the black wolf king will be cursed, but this black wolf king does not refer to Jia Zeng, it can refer to the group of tomb keepers. However, it turns out that even the items stolen from the grave keeper's tomb can bring misfortune, and the wolf god statue painted black is the most effective. Wolves that are worshipped as gods by grave keepers, especially black wolves, who are revered by grave keepers, will be made into black stone statues of them and placed in their tombs after the death of the more famous grave keepers, and cursed with them.
"Jia Zeng is a relatively famous tomb keeper, and his stone statue of the Black Wolf King should be in the Jade Tomb." Liu Dehao said.
"So...... Eternal Silence Cool City lured the emperor to the Jade Tomb in order to ......"
"Yes, on the surface, I am looking for the root of the Divine Tree, and near the root of the tree should be the stone statue of the Black Wolf King. That thing, if you touch it, you will die. Liu Dehao said: "Our emperor thief went to the jade tomb once, and it was very complicated, and the main tomb and the sacred tree were not found. Eternal Silence Liangcheng came prepared, and their purpose was the emperor. ”
"Then we're going to have to speed things up."
"That's not right...... How many days did I sleep? ”
"Three days."
Liu Dehao counted: "Eleventh, thirteenth, today is July 14th?"
"That's right!"
"It's broken, tomorrow July 15."
"Halloween?"
"That's right, tomorrow is the heaviest time of the year, and the demons and monsters in the Jade Tomb have reached their maximum combat ability, and Yin Shenglin is not easy to deal with."
When it comes to the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, I believe that many people may not know much about this day, but when it comes to the "Ghost Festival", it may make everyone have a creepy feeling, in fact, the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar in the Central Plains is the Buddhist "Bon Festival", which is a festival for the deceased relatives, but with the passage of time, this day has been named the "Ghost Festival" in folklore. Even the emperor thief has a rule that no tombs can be buried near Halloween these days.
In metaphysics, there is a saying that "solitary yin does not give birth, and solitary yang does not grow", which means that in many things should not be too extreme, and on the day of "Halloween" should also conform to this principle, in metaphysics, it is believed that the extreme colors are red symbolizing "extreme yang" and black symbolizing "extreme yin", so you must wear black and red clothes on this day to deal with demons and monsters.
Liu Dehao is now racing against time to rush to the grass pavilion, and all that is left is to pray.
