Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Strange Sarcophagus

Rolling mountains, the remnant sun sets in the west.

The fox, whose whole body was fiery red, sat elegantly on the sarcophagus, the remnant sun shone obliquely into the dragon's mouth with its head tilted slightly, and the eyes of the fire fox still shimmered with the color of glass.

Outside, a flock of birds began to return to their nests, and a flock of black crows flew near the dragon's beak, and there were bursts of wailing from near to far, gradually disappearing, and a strange smell filled the air......

"Damn, is this thing a good thing? The fox demon is still a fox fairy...... "The first thing the fat man did when he woke up was to seek revenge on the fire fox."

However, the firefox was not afraid, and still sat on top of the sarcophagus.

The wounds of the two of them were not serious, and after a simple bandage, they moved freely.

I lay on the ground and asked them, "What do you see?" ”

The fat man said, "I saw my daughter-in-law ...... in a daze."

"I saw my parents." Duanmu Qianyu had tears in her eyes, her parents died mysteriously 10 years ago.

I told them what I saw.

"It's dangerous." Duanmu Qiankite touched his heart, and seemed to have palpitations.

A cold wind blew, the wings of his nose fluttered slightly, his white eyebrows trembled slightly, and a strange smile appeared on the fox's face.

"Damn, you almost killed us, and you're still laughing." The fat man stretched out his hand and clawed at the fox's neck.

The fire fox shrank his neck, stood up lightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a weird and bewitching smile, and opened his mouth to bite the fat man's hand hard.

"It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, it's a fox demon today." The fat man patted his chest with his hand and let out a long breath.

With a wicked sneer on his face, the fox of the fire fox did not chase the fat man, and disappeared into the darkness with a light leap......

"Tut-tut, it seems that the "five immortals" enshrined in the Northeast make sense, and the fox, yellow, white, willow and gray can't be provoked. The fat man clapped his hands laughingly.

The sarcophagus is naturally integrated with the dragon's head, as if it grew out of the dragon's mouth.

"What a delicate carving. Duanmu, what is this carving? "I, a layman who doesn't know how to carve, can't help but praise it.

"You see, the sarcophagus is square nine dragons play bead pattern, the top of the sarcophagus is the dragon ball, between the nine dragons there is a boat, for the five people, for the window eight, for the canopy, for the 楫, for the furnace, for the pot, for the hand scroll, for the rosary each one, the inscription thirty-four words." Duanmu Qiankite watched carefully and explained to us.

"It's a strange text, it's like a tadpole." I asked, frowning.

"Well, it's just Tianzhu script, a very ancient script, and the Tianzhu script contains a wide range, including Sanskrit, Lu, Tocharian, Khotanese, etc., and the text here should be Tocharian, a text that has disappeared for many years." Duanmu Qianyu's eyes seemed to be full of surprise.

On the left side of the sarcophagus, a story seems to be carved, thousands of people boarded the ship, and large and small ships sailed on the sea.

"Mo Han, fat man, look at this ship." Duanmu Qiankite wiped the pattern on the sarcophagus with his hand, and the pattern of the sarcophagus that wiped off the dust became clearer and clearer.

"It's nothing, just two old men playing chess." I took a closer look.

Duanmu Qianyuan sighed slightly and said, "Mo Han, when you have time, you should read more books." ”

I laughed and said, "You...... You better spare me, my head hurts when I read books, and I am only sober when I count money. ”

Duanmu Qiankite said: "Look, this stern is lying horizontally. There is one person on the left and right boats. The right person has a bun on his back, his left hand leans on a beam, and his right hand climbs his right toe, as if whistling. The person on the left holds the pu kui fan in his right hand, caresses the stove with his left hand, and there is a pot on the stove. ”

I was a little puzzled and asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Duanmu patted me lightly on the shoulder and said, "The carvings on this ship should be the Tie Guan Li and Han Zhongli among the Eight Immortals, which shows one thing, that is, to seek immortals." ”

"Looking for immortals?"

"Well, it's just preliminary speculation, don't take it seriously." As she spoke, she took out her notebook and began to rub it according to the words on it.

"Duanmu, let's do something serious, you have to finish these words and the sky is bright."

"You, what do you say, maybe if you unlock these words, you will know all the secrets here." Duanmu Qiankite didn't even bother to raise his head.

"Is the scriptures in "Journey to the West" such a text?"

"That's Sanskrit, and there were four great empires in Tianzhu history: the Mauryan Empire, the Gupta Empire, the Delhi Sultanate, and the Mughal Empire. Therefore, the diversity of words, only by figuring out the words, can we know the specific age, as well as the secrets here. Duanmu Qianyu's tone was a little impatient.

The sky is getting darker, but fortunately I still have two pairs of candles in my bag, and lighting a faint candle can only illuminate the surrounding five meters, but it does not affect the rubbing of Duanmu Qianji.

The night was surprisingly quiet and the moonlight was shining.

For the sake of safety, we can only walk to the teeth of the dragon's mouth, where the moonlight is here, and where there is light, we always feel safe, and we don't feel too scared in our hearts.

Listening to the night breeze and looking at the night, I temporarily forgot that there was a sarcophagus beside me.

And I always felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at us in the sarcophagus, and when I turned my head to see, it was indeed pitch black on the sarcophagus. Perhaps because of the inexplicable fear in their hearts, they were even more uneasy in their hearts, and the two of them seemed to be fine, leaning on the dragon's teeth to close their eyes and recuperate.

"You ...... You guys...... I admire you for resting in such an environment. "I was chilling and shivering a little when I spoke.

"Well, isn't this with you, you're the undertaker, and the ghosts are afraid of you." Duanmu Qianji's eyes didn't even move.

The fat man sighed and said: "Mo Han, some things are doomed, and it's useless for you to be afraid, so it's important to be calm, don't scare yourself." ”

Lighting three incense sticks, the left and right hands and four fingers interlocked, the thumb pressed the long incense, the incense head and the eyes level, I bent down to the east, south, west, and north to bow and bow three times, and said loudly: "People come to separate heavy paper, ghosts come to the next mountain, a thousand evils can't get it, ten thousand evils can't get it." "The anti-ghost spell left by the second leatherman since ancient times has never been used, and I don't know if it works.

Take out the compass, the magnetic needle keeps vibrating, the "ding" subtle sound, and the needle is located in the southwest.

According to the direction corresponding, Qian, Dui, Gen, Li, Kan, Kun, Zhen, Xun, and Zhong are respectively laid down nine flying stars, corresponding to one white, two black, three bi, four green, five yellow, six white, seven red, eight white and nine purple, the so-called flying star is a small handful of glutinous rice.

"Settled." I clapped my hands, and after this set of procedures, my heart was so peaceful. The fear and apprehension gradually disappeared.

"You should go to the great god of dancing, it is estimated that you can make more money than you as a second leatherman." The fat man stared at me cross-legged against the dragon's teeth, and said seriously.

"You know a fart, this Nine Palace Flying Star was left by Yuan Tiangang." I kicked the fat man lightly.

"If there is anything else, let's do it together, so it's safer." Duanmu Qiankite glanced at me and said.

"Alas, it's a pity that these glutinous rice, a full meal ran away." The fat man swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Foodie, I'm." I was speechless for a while, and found a place to sit down near Duanmu Qianyu, the bright moonlight made the hazy world graceful, and the blue sky was dotted with countless small stars, reflecting the moon.

We were half-asleep in this wonderful night, in the strange faucet......
