Chapter 131: See the Nether Ghost Fire Again?
Wu Zhou Dynasty?
Those who know a little history know that the Zhou Wu Dynasty was the period when Wu Zetian was in power in the Tang Dynasty.
After Wu Zetian officially ascended the throne, he took great care of Dali Temple, not only granted amnesty to the world, but also named Di Renjie as the Dali Temple.
In some official histories, basically the records of Dali Temple are institutions specializing in the trial of criminal and prison cases.
Then why since the Sui and Tang dynasties, three provinces and six ministries have been formulated, among which the criminal department is in charge of justice, and there will be such a Dali Temple?
That's because Dali Temple is responsible for the big and strange cases of hundreds of officials' crimes!
In the history of the wilderness, it is recorded that as the first female emperor, Wu Zetian's ascension to the throne will undoubtedly be opposed by some court officials, so Wu Zetian will use Dali Temple to eradicate all dissidents to stabilize his throne.
This is also why Wu Zetian attaches so much importance to Dali Temple after he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor!
In addition, there is another saying in the wild history, after Wu Zetian ascended the throne and established the Zhou Wu Dynasty, there were many demons in the world, and even created a lot of evil cases in the capital.
There are really inscriptions on the tombstones.
Translated in the vernacular, the approximate meaning is that the owner of the tomb, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Li Mofeng, had excellent ability during his lifetime, was extremely intelligent, and made good use of strange arts, and with his strange skills, he broke several cases of demon rebellion, helped the saint solve problems, stabilized the country, and made great contributions! After his death, he was posthumously knighted by the saint and buried thickly! Enjoy the specifications of the royal family's tomb......
The inscription on this tombstone is simply too informative.
The first is to determine the accuracy of some wild historical records, during the reign of Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty, the demons in the world were in turmoil, and Dali Temple played an extremely important position in it.
And then there is the owner of the tomb, extremely intelligent, and good at using strange magic in Dali Temple Shaoqing!
After reading the inscription on the tombstone, even the dragon and tiger couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the expression in his eyes was slightly solemn.
can make the dragon and tiger want to gasp solemnly, but you can imagine the complexity of this tomb, the biggest reason is because this Dali Temple Shaoqing will be strange!
Many tomb owners will bring what they know and learn into their tombs, especially strange magic and various mechanisms!
"Will the dragon and tiger be too frightened to go down when they see this inscription?"
Zhao Yang always paid attention to the expression on the face of the dragon and tiger in the corner, if this was really the case, then call it a day early, and his task would be completed.
But Zhao Yang's thinking was a little too simple.
I saw that the eyes of the dragon and tiger suddenly became resolute again, and walked to the side of the tombstone.
Behind the tombstone, there is a rectangular robbery hole with a diameter of almost two meters long and more than one meter wide.
This is supposed to be the passage to the second level of the tomb below, which was opened by the first tomb robbers to come here.
"Yunfu"
Long Huxiang looked down at the thief hole under his feet, and then shouted at the third aunt of the sentence lightly.
Xing Sangu understood what the dragon and tiger meant, and immediately opened the birdcage again and put the thrush inside.
But after a while, with the whistle of the third aunt, the thrush flew back again, and was in good spirits.
"Down!"
After determining the air quality of the tomb, Long Huxiang nodded again, and his eyes were extremely resolute.
Because the main purpose of the dragon and tiger phase to go to the tomb this time is not only to chase the murderer, but also to find the eldest disciple, the more this tomb is not simple, the more the dragon and tiger are worried about their disciples.
Compared with his four disciples, the dragon and tiger are better than his own life, and the dragon and tiger who have just experienced the pain of losing their son, how can they let their disciples have any accidents.
With the order of the dragon and tiger minister, more than two dozen people began to use ropes to go under the second layer of the tomb, and Zhao Yang, who was playing soy sauce, was still the last.
Probably because of the depth of the burial chamber, the second floor of this burial chamber is more shady.
The only thing that is fortunate is that there is no standing water in this second layer.
This is also one of the advantages of double tombs, which can solve the problem of water accumulation and better preservation.
[System prompt: The host has been detected to have successfully entered the Shaoqing Tomb of Dali Temple in the Tang Dynasty, and the sign-in task has been issued, please check the host on the system taskbar.] 】
That is, Zhao Yang had just followed down the second floor of the tomb when he suddenly heard the sound of the system ringing in his head.
Zhao Yang frowned, since he has come, it is also good to complete the system sign-in task by the way, after all, there is no delay.
[System check-in task: Please sign in to the Shaoqing Tomb of Dali Temple in the Tang Dynasty for seven consecutive days (check in for at least one hour every day), and the first day of sign-in task reward: health value 20, solar wolf-eye flashlight (59 minutes and 59 seconds left on the first day of sign-in)]
Looking at the sign-in task of the system, Zhao Yang couldn't help but smile, this system is a real chicken thief, after he stuck a sign-in bug in Futuo Country for the first time, this system actually quietly changed the sign-in rules, and it takes at least an hour to stay before the sign-in is successful!
"Be careful, everyone, be extra vigilant!"
As soon as he got down to the second floor of the tomb, Long Huxiang reminded everyone in a serious tone.
Everyone also had a very tacit understanding, and at the same time, the oil lamp in their hands shone around.
It was also a burial chamber, and it was very large and spacious, estimated to be at least four or five hundred square meters, and it was about the same as the upper floor, made of blue bricks, and the whole frame was supported by eight stone pillars.
In the southeast corner of the burial chamber there is a pitch-black passageway, which is supposed to lead to the other transepts and the main burial chamber.
Simply from the spacious tomb in front of you can be estimated, the overall scale of this tomb should be very large, even larger than imagined, which also just confirms the inscription that the tomb owner as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, during his lifetime for the Zhou Wu Dynasty Sheji made great contributions, after his death received a special burial, built such a large-scale tomb.
But what surprised Zhao Yang was that such a spacious tomb in front of him was actually empty, there was nothing, and it was a little cleaner than his face.
It stands to reason that each burial chamber in the tomb has a corresponding function, such as an ear chamber dedicated to storing funerary goods, and a side chamber dedicated to storing sacrifices and the tomb owner's belongings, so it is impossible to say that there is nothing.
Then there is only one possibility, this tomb has been 'ransacked' by peers before, and it has been looted very cleanly, leaving nothing behind!
"Master, do you smell anything?"
Suddenly, the third aunt looked at the dragon and tiger and asked tentatively in a low voice.
It seems that Zhao Yang is not the only one with a keen sense of smell.
There was indeed a strange smell in the air in this tomb, not a poisonous barrier, nor a corpse gas, but a scorched smell!
It's like something that has been burned and then left behind.
"It's the smell of burning corpses!"
Long Huxiang nodded, and then shone the oil lamp in his hand to the southwest corner of the tomb.
In the southwest corner of the burial chamber, there were several patches of black ash on the ground, all of which were in the shape of herringbones in various postures!
It was clear that people were burned to ashes.
"See the Nether Fire again?"
Zhao Yang looked at the ashes on the ground in the southwest corner of the tomb, and couldn't help frowning.
However, it was quickly denied, because the amount of ashes left after being burned by the Nether Fire was very small, and they were all white, indicating that the bones had been burned to the extreme, and the one in front of them was black.
It's very different from the traces of the Nether Fire.
"The main purpose of our coming down this time is to find people, don't touch anything, don't touch it!"
The dragon and tiger faced everyone with a serious warning, and then took out a special whistle from his body and put it in his mouth to blow it.
This special whistle is much more penetrating than the willow whistle, mainly to deal with the separation in the tomb, and the whistle can be used to transmit signals between each other, and it is also suitable for finding people in the tomb, but the premise is that the person looking for is still alive and can respond.
When the dragon and tiger whistled, it wasn't long before the same whistle was heard in the passage in the southeast corner of the tomb.
Hearing this response, the expression on the face of the third aunt was surprised.
But Zhao Yang frowned, and stopped talking.
What is the response here, this is clearly an echo.
The reason why it took a long time for the sound to come back shows that the size of the entire burial chamber is very large, and it takes time for the sound to come back.
The reason why the echo is so clear is directly related to the structure of the tomb.
