Chapter 42: Texts and Murals

Is there a way for his uncle's thief?

Chen Xiaodonkey glared, watched Jia Beibei crawl over and reseal the entrance of the cave, and asked him if he had this? Jia Xibei replied, when you enter the tomb, you would rather believe that there are some evils, otherwise you can't say when something will happen.

The tomb road is in the shape of a horn, and the further you go, the higher it gets, and after more than ten meters, it has reached about two meters, so it is not a problem to stand and walk.

"Hey, third master, what do you see carved on this wall?" The pillar that was walking at the front suddenly stopped, pointing to the wall next to it with a look of surprise on his face. Chen Xiaodonkey and they leaned over, the cage swept together, and the tomb wall on this side went inward, from top to bottom, until it extended to a bend a few meters ahead, and it was engraved with strange words, all the size of finger joints.

Chen Xiaodonkey watched it for a long time, but he didn't know a word.

"Uncle, what's written on this?" He asked Jia Xibei.

Jia Xibei took the flashlight and looked at it carefully for a while, and scolded: "This is his grandmother's, it seems to be some kind of spell." ”

Incantations? Chen Xiaodonkey felt inexplicable. Jia Xibei asked Dazhu to take out a hand-bound booklet, which was also full of all kinds of words that Chen Xiaodonkey had never seen before.

Jia Xibei looked at the text on the wall and compared it with the booklet for a long time before continuing: "That's right, this is a mantra, a scripture for shamanism to pray for blessings to the gods of mountains and rivers. ”

"That's wrong, uncle, this is not Manchu." Chen Xiaodonkey shook his head in denial.

He grew up in Rehe, and at that time it was the Manchu Aixin Jueluo family who ruled China, and Rehe was one of the most controlling areas of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so he went to a private school for enlightenment since he was a child, and he learned both Manchu and Chinese languages, and he didn't know Manchu.

"Boy, teach you to be a good boy." Jia Xibei turned around, slapped the flashlight on Chen Xiaodonkey's face twice, and said: "The writing of shamanism and Manchu are not the same thing, the real shamanic language is considered to be the language of communication between people and gods, and only those shamans in shamanism and the Manchu royal family are qualified to learn it. ”

Chen Xiaodonkey half-covered his eyes, and his eyes swirled around the booklet in Jia Xibei's hand. He suddenly felt that his brother-in-law seemed to have some kind of targeted preparation for some situations that might be encountered here?

Jia Xibei didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly swept the tomb wall again and was about to turn forward, and at this time, Chen Xiaodonkey suddenly heard a 'poof' sound, the sound was very small, coming from the tomb behind them.

He turned around abruptly and stunned several people for a moment, Pei Luo said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Chen Xiaodonkey didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "I just heard the sound of something falling to the ground, didn't you hear it?" ”

"My day!" Pei Luo was taken aback, "Why didn't I hear it?" ”

Fang Gu said: "The distance is not long, I'll go over and take a look." With that, he quickly turned back in the direction of the hole where they had crawled over.

Jia Xibei kicked Pei Luo: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and take a look, if there is anything to take care of." ”

Pei Luo let out an 'oh', and hurriedly followed with a bitter face.

Chen Xiaodonkey glanced over there, followed Jia Northwest and walked a few meters forward to the corner, and saw a boxy exit, the back of the exit was very dark, and the light of the flashlight could not pass.

Within two minutes, Pei Luo and Fang Gu returned the same way, Fang Gu didn't speak, Pei Luo scolded and said: "Damn, can you not be scared, there is nothing in the back!" ”

Chen Xiaodonkey was a little puzzled and said, "That may be that I heard it wrong." ”

Pei Luo glanced at him, and then said, "Third Master, this exit in front doesn't feel right, can we go to the main tomb?" ”

Jia Xibei said: "It's not quite like, the tomb of the outer coffin and the inner palace structure, after entering the palace gate, you have to go through at least three ear chambers to be the main tomb, go over and take a look first, be careful." ”

This time Jia Xibei himself walked to the front, every step to stop and see, a few meters away stunned for a long time, before walking out of the tomb entrance, by the light of the flashlight, Chen Xiaodonkey saw that in front of them, was a gloomy stone wall.

However, the stone wall looked a little strange, and Chen Xiaodonkey looked at it for a long time before he realized that this should be a photo wall.

But ---- the walls of the tomb are repaired? He choked for a long time and didn't react.

In the feng shui pattern, the wall is often together with the pond, and the change of the position of the front and back is very particular, but no matter how exquisite, this is used to regulate the feng shui of the yang house.

"My grass, this is gold." The second bull head screamed, attracting the attention of several people.

Chen Xiaodonkey turned his head and saw Erniutou kneeling on the ground, pulling up his sleeves and sighing while rubbing a small protruding semicircle under the wall. The bulge was half the size of a fist, and as the two bull's head continued to wipe, it reflected slightly under the flashlight.

It looks like a piece of gold, yes.

And in addition to the piece he wiped, there was a similar bulge more than a meter away from it, the color looked a little dark, if you didn't look carefully, it was easy to ignore the past, Dazhu learned to wipe on the ground like a second bull's head, another piece of gold.

"Third master, pry it down!" The two of them looked excited, such a large piece of gold is not common.

Jia Xibei's face was as usual, he touched the bottom of the stone wall, nodded and said, "There should be no mechanism, let's take it down first." Immediately outside the cemetery, the sound of ping-pong pong sounded.

Jia Xibei turned around and saw Chen Xiaodonkey and Fang Gu squatting, staring at the wall with flashlights as if they were looking at something, and said, "Little donkey, what are you doing?" ”

"Uncle, come here." Chen Xiaodonkey said without raising his head. In front of him and Fang Gu, there was a mural with a somewhat strange color. The painting depicts a group of people kneeling in front of a round platform in front of them, with a person in the forefront, dressed in an exaggerated costume, holding something above his head with his head bowed. The whole picture looks like some kind of tribute scene from ancient times, but the strange thing is that there is nothing on that round platform.

"Strange, I think I've seen this painting somewhere." Jia Xibei squatted down and said, but after frowning and thinking for a long time, he found nothing, he waved his hand to call Pei Luo over, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Pei, look at this painting, is it familiar?" ”

Pei Luo stared at the painting and thought for a few seconds, then clapped his hands and said, "Beiping, isn't there a pair of things like this one hanging in the room surnamed Pan!" But it seems that something is a little different. ”

Chen Xiaodonkey raised his head when he heard this, and felt a little strange, "No, the murals in the tomb should be more or less related to the life of the tomb owner. ”

"Table less, what you say is a bit absolute, I have really met with the third master, it is in a shop over there in Longtan, and the sketch we brought when we came over was also taken there." Pei Luo didn't agree with Chen Xiaodonkey's words, and suddenly patted his head again: "By the way, I remember where it is different, the third master, the picture hung there surnamed Pan, and the person painted on it has a knife stuck in each of them." ”

"When you say that, I remember that I saw it there, round platforms, kneeling people, almost all like this." Jia Xibei nodded.

Chen Xiaodonkey said strangely: "What does this picture mean?" Looking at ----, I always feel that something is not right. ”

"Is there a magnifying glass?" Fang Gu, who had been staring at the mural, suddenly asked.

Jia Xibei casually took out a magnifying glass the size of half a palm and handed it over, and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Fang Gu did not speak, took a magnifying glass, swept over the kneeling figures in the mural, and finally stopped on the round platform, staring at it for a long time.

"Aunt Fang, what did you find?" Chen Xiaodonkey couldn't help but ask.

Fang Gu said in a deep voice: "In the middle of the round platform, there is a hand. ”

"Hands?" Chen Xiaodonkey was stunned for a moment, took the magnifying glass from her hand, looked down, and suddenly got goosebumps.

In the middle of the round platform was a small piece of color, which looked a little lighter than the others, as if to express that there was a hole in the platform, and at the edge of the hole, a hand with an extremely long fingernail reached out and grabbed at the edge of the hole, as if something was crawling out of it.

And that hand, where is the hand, it's obviously a claw, okay?
