Poyang Battlefield Chapter 35 The Last Words of the Ancestors
When I came in, I kept my eyes on the road, and it wasn't until I saw this door that I saw the exact same door as I had dreamed that I remembered to look around.
It is located in the middle of two huge slabs in the center of the island, which at first glance look like two huge palms, and this gate is located in the center of the western palm.
I measured the size of the slate with my hand, and judging from the size and appearance, the slate on the east side should be the boulder that blocked our way yesterday, that is, if we had passed through this boulder yesterday, we would have seen the cavity directly.
I immediately thought of the scene where I had fallen from a stone in my dream yesterday, and I remember that I was about to fall on a stone, but suddenly I fell into darkness, and then I came to a safe place on the ground, and then there was a bright light, and then the light led me to the secret door.
Isn't that the same as what I see in front of me?!
"What's wrong?" Qiu Yan saw that I hadn't moved for a long time, so she asked.
"Oh, nothing, I just want to see if there's anything else suspicious around here."
Continuing along the road we have just walked, there is also a narrow road sandwiched between two huge slates, which is not strictly a road, but it is sandwiched between two rocks, and there are relatively few weeds and shrubs, so it looks like a road.
I wonder if the people who came here before couldn't find this place, otherwise we wouldn't have found any traces along the way.
This is good news for us, at least we discovered this place before Chen Fangyuan's gang.
When I think of Chen Fangyuan, I think of that fog shadow again, it was that fog shadow that attracted me last night, if all this is a purpose, then what is this purpose? After entering this door, will we enter a dark room as I did in my dreams, or will there be some danger waiting for us?
I still remember the whole process in my dream yesterday clearly, except for the last time I saw the skeleton standing behind me and was scared awake, I didn't encounter any danger at other times, could it be that the fog shadow was paralyzing me, making me mistakenly think that there was no danger after entering, in fact, there would be all kinds of deadly mechanisms waiting for us?
Or is this fog shadow telling me that there is no danger inside, and it wants me to go in generously and find the skeleton directly?
I wonder if that fog shadow is what ordinary people call a soul? And that skeleton was its former body? If that's the case, then wouldn't I really be the hell?
Also, Huang Yueling said that part of my soul was left in the world of the dead, is it because of this that I can see that fog shadow? Or is that last night's dream actually the real experience of that part of my soul?
I was thinking about it in my head, Huang Yueling suddenly squeezed in front of me, she took a flashlight and shook it in the hole, said "What's in here" and got in.
I really don't know if Huang Yueling, this girl, is really not afraid of anything or doesn't understand anything, it's dark here, if I hadn't had an experience in a dream, even I would have to be cautious and go in again.
Seeing Huang Yueling quickly disappear at the entrance of the cave, I immediately chased in, and Brother Zeng and Qiu Yan also followed closely behind.
The four of us had two headlamps and two flashlights, and as soon as we entered, the inside was brightly lit, but when I saw everything inside, I was completely stunned.
The structure, the furnishings, and the desk and the planks in front of and behind it, were the same as the one I saw in my dream, and I walked to the plank in front of the desk, kicked it with my foot, and the hoop was revealed.
"Ah, there's an iron ring, big nephew, your eyes are so good, you found it at once, I guess there must be a cellar down here!" Huang Yueling was as if she was playing an adventure game, and she was very excited.
Huang Yueling pushed me away, pulled the iron ring with both hands, and shouted "babbling" vigorously in her mouth, and pulled up the entire plank at once.
Although I easily pulled the plank apart last night, it was a dream after all, and now I see that the plank is four or five centimeters thick, and judging from the sound of Huang Yueling pulling it up and smashing it back to the ground, this plank weighs at least seventy or eighty pounds.
I smiled helplessly, it seems that this girl really didn't mention those two big buckets of water every day!
People's curiosity is the same, and when Huang Yueling lifted the plank, Qiu Yan and Brother Zeng immediately surrounded her.
"There are steps, and there must be a dark room underneath!" Probably infected by Huang Yueling, Qiu Yan was also excited.
"I'll take the lead, everyone be careful!" Without waiting for me to speak, Brother Zeng stepped into the stone steps first.
With the previous experience, I wouldn't be surprised that no matter how similar it was to my dreams, I walked alone behind everyone, thinking about the hidden story behind all this, I could feel that it was all purposeful, but I couldn't figure out what that purpose was.
As I expected, after entering the stone steps, there were several steps back and forth, but these steps were not as long as I had dreamed.
After walking down more than ten meters, we came to a stone gate, and Brother Zeng just poked his head inside and got in.
Huang Yueling followed behind Brother Zeng, and shouted "ah" not long after entering, I knew that they had seen the skeleton.
Yesterday in my dream, I patronized the books on the table, and I didn't remember what came out later, so I'm a little curious to see what it looks like inside.
When I went into the dark room, in addition to the table and the skeleton behind the table, there were some cabinets and other things on the walls on all four sides, and I went to look at it, and found that there were some books and rune paper and other things in it, and in one of the cabinets, there were also some small bottles with some cinnabar in it.
The most surprising thing is that on the wall behind the skeleton, there is a cow skull mask, which looks very similar to the one Huang Yueling found from the lake before.
All indications prove that the owner of this dark room is a corpse chaser, and the first person I think of is my ancestor Huang Zongman.
Could it be that this skeleton in front of me is my ancestor?
Qiu Yan understood the reason, she probably guessed my thoughts, took my hand and said softly: "Zimu, look ~~~"
I waved my hand, "Let's see!" ”
Because the things in the house were too old, I was worried that too much contact would damage them, so I told Qiu Yan and the others not to touch these things as much as possible.
If the person in front of me is really Huang Zongman, then this room full of things are from the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, not to mention so many books, even these tables, cabinets and chairs, which can be regarded as major discoveries in the archaeological world, I think that even if it is for archaeology, I have to ensure that these things are intact.
At this time, Qiu Yan detoured to the skeleton's side, leaned over and took a few glances at the book in front of the skeleton.
"Zimu, come and see!"
Hearing Qiu Yan's shout, the three of us surrounded at the same time.
"This is a note he took, hey, no, it should be his last words!" Qiu Yan pointed to a few words in the book and explained.
I leaned over and froze after only a few words, because I saw the end of this text, which read: Zongman's final words!
At this time, I didn't care if the book was a cultural relic, and I was bent on seeing what it was, so I squeezed in between Huang Yueling and Qiu Yan, and then turned the book to the first few pages.
Although most of the characters on it are traditional characters, and this person's handwriting is relatively sloppy, I can still make a general statement.
The book reads:
With the energy of my life, I assisted the king of Han in the grass, and in the past I was determined by the great cause, why did it end dismally.
Yu inherited his father's will, practiced the Fu Sutra for dozens of years, and thought that the Tao was the common people, and the loss of the Tao was also for the common people.
Wang Yide to benefit, the people to benefit to capital, across the Yangtze River without fear, stepping on the south of the Yangtze River without hindrance, I think the great cause will be successful.
Who expected that the heavy eight vertical sons were clever like springs, divided the west of the Yangtze River, and captured several cities, and my king had to retreat to Jiangzhou, and wanted to gather heavy troops to return to Hunan and Hubei.
However, the will of heaven is difficult to disobey, the Han King is defeated and retreated, there is no way to retreat, and I am wrong with a thought, and I actually help each other with evil laws.
Today, Yu killed the king of Han in Jingjiang, and he was ashamed of the top and bottom, and he was on a hunger strike to apologize, and he could not die well.
Zongman's final words! (I'll rewrite this paragraph after careful consideration)
Looking at the whole last words, the four of us were stunned, just a hundred words, but what came out was a large piece of history.
If I understand correctly, Huang Zongman said that Chen Youliang, the king of Han, did not die from the enemy's arrow, but was killed by Huang Zongman himself, and the reason why Chen Youliang was killed was because of his later great change in temperament.
I thought to myself that if this passage gets out, it will not only change our understanding, but also rewrite the entire national history book.
In addition, Huang Zongman also mentioned the word "evil law", I am very puzzled, these people are always so secretive, why don't they be happy, tell what the evil law is, what it is for, and who taught it.
However, the book also explains some problems, and the expiration of the period proves that this skeleton is my ancestor, and this ancestor is indeed Chen Youliang's right-hand man.
But the room was so strange, so deeply buried, so hidden, that it looked like a living room, but there was no bed.
I thought to myself that Huang Zongman must have set up a reason for the house here, otherwise, why would he want to return to this place where birds don't after Chen Youliang's death?
Filled with doubts, I searched the house again.
Suddenly, I noticed what appeared to be a mark under the table in front of the skeleton, and it was so inconspicuous that I wouldn't have noticed it if it weren't for my headlamp.
I beckoned Brother Zeng to move the table away, and after there was no shadow of the table on the ground, we noticed that there was a dent about a meter wide on it.
