Chapter 51: The Mass Grave
In history, dignitaries and nobles all had valuable funeral goods, in addition to ordinary utensils to accompany the burial, there were also people.
In ancient times, men had a high status. After the death of the head of the family, the family members of the family will accompany the burial part of the burial and bury with the male owner, this method of burial is very popular, especially after the death of the emperor.
The mausoleums of the emperors of no generation were built very large, and there were many people who accompanied the burial, in addition to ordinary servants, there were also some soldiers and concubines, the intention was that after arriving in the underworld, there were also people to serve, and they could also have the right to respond to all calls.
Cao Cao was not the emperor during the Three Kingdoms period, and even at the moment of death, he was only the prime minister.
Although I grew up in the mountains and forests, the history of the Three Kingdoms is quite familiar. Although Cao Cao was just a prime minister at that time, he was actually no different from the emperor. When such a powerful person leaned towards the government and the opposition, when he was finally buried, it was said that there were seventy-two doubtful graves.
The place that the three of us found was able to cultivate such a large mausoleum, and before entering the main tomb, it encountered so many dangers, I am sure that this must be Cao Cao's mausoleum.
If it is really a ten thousand graves, then the problem is big. Ten thousand burial pits are mostly pits where the corpses of tens of thousands of people were buried during ancient wars. This kind of place often becomes a yin pool, and the ghosts in it are angry, because the resentment is too great, so no ghost will go there to detain the soul, and if the ghost does not detain the soul, the ghost there will naturally not be reincarnated, so the ghost in it has been wandering there, if there is a living person running there, they can only be asked for their life.
In such a vicious circle, the grave of ten thousand graves has become a veritable murderous place. The person who was asked for his life has also become a ghost who has been wronged, and the resentment will naturally not be small, so the resentment of the ten thousand graves is even greater. In fact, to put it bluntly, the Ten Thousand Burial Pit is a vicious area where no one cares about the two worlds of yin and yang.
I hurriedly opened the eyes of heaven and looked around, and then I couldn't help but feel that my back was all wet, because I saw that the evil qi here was surging to the sky, and the yin qi was thick and condensed, what the hell would this place be if it wasn't a ten thousand burial pits!
"Not good!" Suddenly, a hint of panic flashed through my mind, and I hurriedly yelled at the fat man and the old man, "Quickly retreat into the crack of the stone." ”
The fat man and Lao Hu were slightly surprised by my reaction, but they didn't think about anything, and hurriedly ran towards the stone crevice, but the direction in which they ran was a little weird, I just opened the eyes of the sky, and I could see that the stone crevice was less than five meters behind us, but they drove me in another direction.
"What are you doing!" I yelled.
The fat man and Lao Hu stopped, "Half Immortal, didn't you let us run back to the crack in the stone?" ”
"The stone crack is over there, you fucking eye problems are not ......" Saying this, I stopped, and looked at the fat man and Lao Hu seriously, this look was suddenly startled, the two of them did not know when to start, and they were already surrounded by miasma.
"Now you listen to my command and run in the direction I say." I don't have time to take a closer look, I just know that if this place stays for a long time, it won't be long before we will all be infected with miasma, once the miasma enters the body, after three days, we will be pale and decay, and after seven days, the muscles on our bodies will begin to condense, and even the strongest people will become skinny and boneless, and within fifteen days, they will turn into a dry corpse.
This is not the most terrifying place, the most terrifying part is that if the intake of yin qi is too large, after death, yin qi will be emitted from the body and connected with some fresh corpses in the surrounding environment, as long as the amount of corpses is enough, it is easy to cause a plague.
The fat man and Lao Hu were obviously a little confused, and I hurriedly pointed in one direction and shouted: "Just where you are, keep rushing over!" ”
They listened to me all the time after entering the tomb, and this time was no exception, and they carried me quickly to the outside of the stone crevice, but they refused to enter the stone crevice, and I asked, "Keep going!" How did it stop? ”
"It's... Half-immortal, do you want us to be killed directly? The fat man said with some embarrassment.
I was slightly stunned, the stone crack was in front of me, how could he say that?
"Yes, half-immortal, there is a stone wall in front, and there is no way." Lao Hu also looked at me suspiciously, as if he was looking at a monster.
I can't care so much, if I stay in this place for a minute longer, the danger will be a little worse, after breaking free from the support of the two, I pounced on the implication, and the fat man and Lao Hu hurriedly came over and grabbed me, but my body had already jumped to the ground, and then quickly crawled forward with my hands.
"This ...... Demi-Immortal, when will you be able to pierce through the wall? The fat man exclaimed.
"You can too, hurry up." I didn't bother to explain to them, it was clear that the scene they saw was not necessarily the same as the scene I saw, maybe in their eyes, this crack in the stone did not exist at all, and I was a person crawling through the stone wall in their eyes.
Due to the urgency of the matter, I didn't have time to explain to them more, I just wanted to take them out of this mass grave as soon as possible.
The fat man and Lao Hu hesitated, but finally followed me into the crack in the stone.
At this exit into the mass grave, the width of the stone crevice has increased, and the three people stand side by side, barely able to stand.
After leaving the mass grave, the fat man and the old general came to me suspiciously.
"Huh, what's going on?" Lao Hu said suddenly.
The fat man also looked puzzled, and I followed their gaze, and suddenly his face was full of disbelief.
There is no doubt that there is a mass grave ahead. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much miasma.
The miasma in the mouth of a warlock is different from what ordinary people call miasma. When ordinary people talk about miasma, they mostly refer to the dirty air flow. In the eyes of the warlock, miasma is yin qi (the death of the deceased is the breath emitted from the body), resentment (the resentment secreted from the body when the heart is unwilling), and stench (after the corpse decomposes, there will be a disgusting smell), these three gases are composed together.
The mass grave is formed by bringing together tens of thousands of dead people, and these three gases can be described as unprecedentedly strong, and the miasma is very grand.
The battlefield is the most likely place for miasma to appear, but fortunately, it is on the ground, and the miasma cannot be formed on a large scale, so it is dispersed by cyclones in the air, and once it gathers in a certain harbor, it is easy to cause a plague.
To get back to the point, I was surprised because after I left the mass grave and entered the stone crevice, when I caught the light of the miner's lamp again to look at the mass grave, there had been a drastic change.
Although I don't know what the fat man and Lao Hu saw, at this time, I was still open to the sky, but what I saw was a miasma empty field.
The air above the entire open field was unusually cloudy, greatly obstructing the view, and when I first entered the place, I saw white bone meal all over the ground and the wide stone gate in front of me, but at this time, I saw a different scene.
The entire empty court could vaguely tell the space the size of two basketball courts, and the wide stone gate on the opposite side of the stone crack could barely be seen, however, there was no white powder on the ground anymore, but terracotta.
Terracotta, as the name suggests, red soil.
The formation of terracotta is because after people are slaughtered, the soil stained red with blood, a small area of terracotta is not terrible, a large range of terracotta is a fierce place, once a person steps into the time is too long, the soles of the feet are infected with a disease called 'red rash', the soles of the feet are full of cross-eyed, and the body is gradually weakened, and the disease is riddled with pain. This is the terracotta in the eyes of the warlock.
The terracotta in the eyes of ordinary people is also called forbidden soil. Where the terracotta is relatively loose, planting melons and fruit trees will yield a very abundant harvest, but if the terracotta is relatively thick, it is a place of death, and it is useless to plant anything.
"I'll push you up with a lung, what's going on!" The fat man roared: "What I saw just now was obviously a white ground, but now how can I see a red ground." ”
I was a little surprised, could they have seen it too?
Unfolding the eye of heaven has several major consumption of spiritual power. So I closed my yin eyes, looked again, and found that what I saw was different, in the center of the empty field, there was a vertical thing, because the miner's lamp could not illuminate the miasma in the empty field, so I could only judge in front of me that it was a rectangular object about one meter wide and about three meters high.
"Isn't this moisturizing?" Lao Hu muttered: "Lao Tzu has robbed tombs for so many years, and he has never seen Runtu. ”
"yes!" The fat man on the side echoed: "Fat man, I heard that wherever there is moistened soil, there must be blood corpses, and the thing in the center should be a sarcophagus." ”
The two of them turned pale with fright, and cold sweat broke out on their faces.
After listening to this, I also looked at the rectangular object in the middle, and the more I looked at it, the more it looked like a coffin.
But why can't I see when I open the Celestial Eye, but I can see when the Celestial Eye is closed?
The eye of heaven is also known as the eye of wisdom. When anyone is just born, they have a pair of discerning eyes, which can see many things that ordinary people can't see, and with the absorption of the essence of the air between heaven and earth, the longer they stay in the earthly world, the more life qi in their bodies will gradually become stronger, and their discerning eyes will gradually be blinded.
In Taoism, you can use young grapefruit leaves, glue them with high-concentration vinegar, sprinkle them around your eyes, and after washing away the cloudiness that blinds your eyes, you can open your eyes again and see things that you can't usually see.
My Heavenly Eye, which is opened with Taoism, has similarities with the Wisdom Eye that has been cleaned with vinegar, but there are also differences. To put it simply, both the eye of heaven and the eye of wisdom can see ghosts, yin, yang and other inner things that cannot be seen normally, but the eye of wisdom cannot be opened for a long time, and the limitations are very small, but the eye of heaven can see farther, last longer, and see things at a deeper level, the more the eye of heaven is cultivated to the extreme, and even has the ability to see through the human body.
But why, my heavenly eye can't see the cuboid 'sarcophagus'? Something that ordinary people can see, it's a real thing!
I had a lot of doubts, and in addition to what was happening now, I also had a lot of doubts about the white robe in my bag. This robe is not soaked in water, and it also has the function of preventing corpse turtles, perhaps it has been worn by female ghosts for too long, and there is still some corpse gas on it, that is, the breath of death.
The whole robe looks long and spacious, but the actual weight is less than 50 grams, and the material is unusually soft and very tough.
"Half-immortal, what do we do now? Do you want to go over? Lao Hu suddenly said.
I said angrily, "Aren't you Tufuzi?" What do you think? ”
"This place is very evil, we feel very bad, it is like there is a fast boulder pressing on our chest, chest tightness, and we are panicking." The fat man said.
I nodded, the miasma is so thick, it's normal to have a sense of oppression and crisis, fortunately, we are not very deep, and the masculinity is still relatively thick, so it doesn't have much impact. Although they may not necessarily see the miasma, the innate acuity of people can still feel some of it.
"Go, it's definitely going to pass." After all, there was no way back, so I pointed to the empty field ahead and said, "But before I can go over, I have to break the game here." ”
