Chapter 100: A Shocking Secret
I listened to Gu Tianhan's explanation, and I still had some doubts in my heart, so I asked, "How can you be sure that those evil spirits will not follow them down the mountain?" If you let those evil spirits go down the mountain, it will be troublesome. ”
Gu Tianhan didn't seem to be worried, waved his hand at me, and said slowly: "Don't be nervous, at least tonight they will still be trapped here, Lin Zongran will not be in danger when they go down the mountain."
Tonight is the fifteenth day of the seventh month, the formation of the mountain road has been completely operational, it is difficult for those evil spirits to get out now, and it will be dawn in less than half an hour, no matter what evil spirits do not dare to come out to make trouble during the day, so I asked you to stay and help me, and solve these evil spirits before the sun goes down today. ”
I finally know why Gu Tianhan negotiated it like this, it turned out that he had already thought about everything, he expected that Lin Zongran would not have an accident with those soldiers, and those evil people with the ancient sword in my hand did not dare to touch us, so he was so calm and calm now.
Although I feel a little unhappy in my heart, but after all, the matter started because of us, although Lin Zongran is the main culprit, I can be regarded as an accomplice, and it is useless to dwell on those things when they happen, I looked at Gu Tianhan, who was sitting on the side, and said: "Then what do you want me to do, are you staying here with you?" ”
Gu Tianhan looked up at the wonders of the sun and the moon and said, "Wait" I was inexplicable by him, Leng didn't know what to do, walked back and forth for a while, and had no choice but to follow him and wait on the ground.
As soon as I sat down, I couldn't help but feel sleepy, and now I was extremely tired as soon as I relaxed, and I leaned on the flag next to me and took a nap unconsciously.
This night I slept very comfortably, when I woke up I felt numb and numb, I stood up reluctantly, shook my head and saw that the sun had risen high, the dazzling light illuminated my eyes very uncomfortable, I immediately covered the light with my hands, and it took a while for me to get used to the strong light.
Glancing over the platform, I found that Gu Tianhan didn't know when it was gone, and there was only half a pot of water and a piece of dry food left next to me, and I had exhausted the energy in my body because of a good night's sleep and the previous high exercise, so I picked up the half pot of water and hard dry food and devoured it.
At that time, I was already hungry and dizzy, so I desperately stuffed the dry food into my mouth, until I ate all the dry food and water and drank it, I felt that my stomach was no longer as uncomfortable as before, and I finally filled my stomach and I had the heart to find Gu Tianhan.
I picked up the ancient sword that I had placed aside, and slowly walked towards the edge of the platform, and found that the platform was empty, as empty as a silent square, and even the sound of my footsteps could be heard.
I heard the echo of "Da Da Da" all the way along, and I felt extremely weird, but fortunately it was daytime, otherwise I would have been scared even if I had that magical ancient sword in my hand.
I cautiously came to the edge of the platform and looked down, only to see Gu Tianhan cutting the trees in the mountain road with a long-handled hunting knife, I saw that Gu Tianhan was still uneasy in my heart and let go, at least Gu Tianhan was still there, if he really disappeared, I was the only one left, I thought I would choose to escape at that time.
When I saw that he was still busy in the mountain trail, I shouted at him, "What are you doing, do you need my help?" ”
Gu Tianhan heard my shout, looked up and saw him raise a hand and shake it, I guessed that it should not be used, I saw that he began to bow his head and cut down the tree again, so I ignored him and turned around and walked to the huge tomb gate to look at it.
I looked along the lines of the huge tomb door, and saw that the tomb door had stripes of dragon-like pictures and texts, but if I looked closely, the patterns carved on the huge tomb door were more like the two giant pythons wrapped in the coffin before.
Each pattern is two snakes entwined, the two heads are extremely hideous, the entangled snake body looks like one, and the two tails and two snake heads look extremely weird.
Just as I was carefully looking at the tomb door, Gu Tianhan's voice came from behind me: "Ziyang, hurry up." I heard the sound and immediately turned and ran towards him.
Gu Tianhan didn't talk nonsense when he saw me coming, and said directly: "I let those corpse pieces run away last night, I suspect that the weird figure we saw in the formation last night was a zombie formed after the corpse pieces were formed." ”
"What?" I was shocked after hearing this, it was a zombie again, and I couldn't help but think of the corpses I saw before, I was going to burn those corpses last night, but there was an evil again, and we all forgot about it, and now Gu Tianhan said this, I really remember, the corpse of the corpse king who was blasted into pieces of flesh by the thunder is gone.
Gu Tianhan saw that I was a little distracted, so he said: "You don't have to worry too much, even if those corpse pieces are transformed into zombies again, they are no longer flying zombies, and it is already extremely powerful that they can turn into a zombie."
I suspect it may be at the level of white stiffness or black stiffness, so we don't have to worry too much, if it jumps stiff, it will be a little troublesome, but if it is black and white, we will easily destroy it. ”
I couldn't help but glance at him as if he was very simple, but he told me that zombies were very powerful, and now he looks down on zombies so much, I really don't know what his idea is.
But when he said this, the uneasiness in his heart was somewhat put down, and when he saw him cut down a large pile of branches, he asked, "What's the use of these?" ”
Gu Tianhan saw me ask this, and his original plain face became cautious: "These branches are still used to set up formations, although the zombie is terrifying, it has already been injured."
And it's no longer at the level of flying zombies, we don't have to worry too much, but those evil spirits have to be guarded again, and those evil spirits may be absorbed by zombies again after they come out at night, so even if it doesn't become a flying zombie again, we will be very troublesome to deal with. ”
I didn't bother him when I saw that he was so cautious, Gu Tianhan saw that I was silent and said: "Now there are only twenty-three peach branches here, now you go down with me and cut down twenty-six more, and raise enough seven hundred and forty-nine peach branches, last night's formation has been completely destroyed, and it can no longer be used and there are not enough manpower, we can only use other formations." ”
I looked at him piled up on the ground peach tree branches without saying a word and turned around and walked towards the mountain road, he saw that I didn't even greet him and followed down the mountain road, when I went up the mountain a few days ago, I didn't realize that the whole mountain road was planted with peach trees.
Except for a peach tree near the mountainside, mixed willow trees, there are peach trees from the foot of the mountain to my current halfway up the mountain, I don't know what those peach trees do, and I don't have the heart to ask Gu Tianhan again.
I wanted to cut it casually, but before the ancient sword in my hand fell, I saw Gu Tianhan shouting at me: "Slow down, don't cut those small trees, those small trees are useless, they are only useful if they are old, and peach trees can't be cut indiscriminately." ”
I looked at a large peach grove and didn't know that it was old, so I asked, "How can I tell if it's old?" ”
Gu Tianhan came to a peach tree next to my mountain and said: "The peach tree is divided into (peach fairy wood) and (peach yin wood) since ancient times, it is said that peach wood is the essence of the five trees, can suppress the evil spirit, insert peach branches in the household, the boy is not afraid, and the ghost is afraid, so it is also called fairy wood, hero wood, peach wood can also be called (peach fairy wood)."
In ancient Chinese mythology, it is said that there is a world of ghosts, among which there is a mountain, and there is a big peach tree covering three thousand miles on the mountain, and the gate of the ghost domain is located in the northeast of the peach tree.
If the ghost does something harmful at night, he must break off a peach tree branch and bring it into the ghost realm, and let the Yin Si beat it with a peach tree.
(Peach fairy wood) and (peach yin wood) is different, (peach fairy wood) outside yellow and red inside, the branches and leaves on the peach tree are dense but not scattered, the branches are scattered but not messy, the trunk is smooth as silk, some years (peach fairy wood) are like this, on the contrary (peach yin wood) outside red and black inside, the leaves are withered and yellow, and the branches and even branches are white hair, this kind of tree is (peach yin wood). ”
Gu Tianhan said and pointed to the dwarf peach tree in front of him and said: "The ancients said: The peach tree can drive away ghosts and make ghosts, this is the difference between (peach fairy wood) and (peach yin wood), the array we are laying out now cannot be used, (peach yin wood) a load of wrong (peach yin wood) will transform the formation, not only can not destroy the evil but will help them." ”
I heard that it was a great headache that this tree was so carefully divided, but I was even more surprised in my heart. I thought: If I hadn't come to this ancient tomb with (Lin Zongran) this time, I wouldn't have encountered so many things.
I won't have anything to do with Gu Tianhan, and I won't know some mysterious and amazing deeds, just like what he said (Peach Fairy Wood) and (Peach Yin Wood), if Gu Tianhan hadn't told me, I would definitely not know the reason for this in my life.
I cut down the peach trees according to Gu Tianhan's instructions, and soon both of us had cut down enough twenty-six peach trees, and returned to the platform together.
Gu Tianhan saw that I looked uncomfortable and said: "You wait for me here for a while, the place where I live is only two kilometers away from the platform, I will go back and bring some rice and bacon, you first set up a fire for a while, we will eat enough and then make this formation." ”
As soon as I heard the joy in my heart, from last night to now, I haven't eaten any rice in my stomach, I only ate a piece of hard dry food and half a pot of water in the morning, and now I am already hungry with my chest against my back, Gu Tianhan saw me nodding and turned around and walked down the mountain.
I was leaning on the fire and looking at the huge tomb door, which was already the sun setting in the west, and the tomb door showed its bright red lines again in the light of the setting sun.
I stared carefully at the lines on the huge tomb door, and I was suddenly shocked, only to see a line of handwriting faintly appearing on the lines of the tomb door: "The underworld is in the south, the emperor's tomb sits in the east, the west seals the demons, the northern heavenly palace, and there are immortals and burial dragons in ancient times......"
I watched as the dry wood in my hand fell to the ground, and the line of writing seemed to appear only for a moment, and when I tried to look at it again, it was gone.
The bright red lines disappeared little by little, and I dropped everything in my hand, and ran to the tomb door in three steps and two steps, but it was too late, and when I came to the tomb door, even the stripes were gone, let alone the line of handwriting.
I didn't know what that line meant, but I knew it must be a big secret, but unfortunately I only saw half of it at the time, and the rest disappeared before I could even look at it.
Grandpa was obviously very sorry for this matter, but he muttered a few words in a low voice and then continued: "At that time, I had no choice but to go back to the firewood again to build a fire, and I was busy for a while, Gu Tianhan came to the platform with half a catty of rice and two bacons in a broken pot. ”
When I saw Gu Tianhan coming, I was not in a hurry to let him get food, but told him what I had just seen, Gu Tianhan was immediately shocked after hearing it, this is the first time I have ever seen him show such a surprised expression.
Gu Tianhan looked back at the tomb door and said: "This is a shocking secret, I also mean it specifically, but the codex handed down from the master can solve some problems." I listened to his words and was so excited that I asked, "What's the secret?" Gu Tianhan paused and only said one word: "Immortal"
