Chapter 21 Searching for Huayang Cave (1)
Shen Jinsan was very puzzled, Ge Zhengqing made it clear that he was forcing himself to learn the "Nine Star Secret Technique", but Wu Zhengyi was silent on the side, could it be that the two of them could not discuss it.
Ge Zhengqing thought for a moment by drinking tea, and then said lightly: "If you learn geography, you can also find the dragon vein and set the treasure cave, and I will teach you the ability to take treasure by fighting upside down, what do you think?" ”
"Senior brother!" Wu Zhengyi seems to be eager to oppose it!
Ge Zhengqing: "I think he is a smart person, let him decide for himself!" ”
Shen Jinsan thought again and again: "Listen to you!" But Uncle Wu said that "Nine Star Secret Technique" is not something that can be learned casually! ”
Shen Jinsan's heart is like a mirror child, knowing that Ge Zhengqing wants to teach himself martial arts and teach himself to be a real captain who touches gold, in fact, Shen Jinsan's heart is contradictory, the mysterious captain touches gold, the exciting inverted fight, the joy of getting the treasure, he wants to learn, he loves this business, and he doesn't need to shy away from it.
And learning to fight backwards may be of great benefit to Shen Jinsan's future, he feels that many things related to him and unsolved secrets have to be answered underground.
But the only problem is that Ge Zhengqing may not know that he doesn't have much time to study at the moment, and this seems to be a road of no return, but since he agreed, let's take one step at a time.
"You have to think about it!" Wu Zhengyi is very serious.
Ge Zhengqing was very happy: "Good boy! Let's start tonight! You don't have to call me Master, just Master Uncle! ”
When the time came to the evening, Ge Zhengqing and Shen Jinsan climbed the small hill behind the house by the moonlight, and the two found a secluded place to sit down.
Although Ge Zhengqing is a blind man, he is not young, and he can walk like a fly on the rocky road with a thin bamboo stick in front of him, and if his eyes are not blind, his skills can be imagined.
Shen Jinsan took out the "Nine Star Secret Technique", and he couldn't see the words on it clearly in the moonlight, Ge Zhengqing heard the sound of flipping the book, and guessed that Shen Jinsan was reading "The Secret Art of the Nine Stars", so he told him that the obscure words on the book are Taoist terms, and Shen Jinsan is a person with all five elements, and he doesn't need to learn anything else at the root.
Ge Zheng knew the key to geography early in the morning, in order to facilitate the search for the dragon vein and treasure point, he had been reduced and sorted into a simple mantra by himself, and he could recite it proficiently, and he would teach it to Shen Jinsan later, and the purpose of calling him here was not to learn geography, but to tell him something.
Legend has it that Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor suddenly disappeared one day after the unification of the tribes, but before he disappeared, he sent out the news, saying that his limit was approaching, and he had found a place to bury, and taught the spells in the "Yin Yang Sutra" to the leaders of his tribes.
Therefore, only these three great sects are known to have contracts.
The relationship between the Daomen is complicated, there are battles and cooperation, but the Three Great Dao Sects gather in Longhu Mountain every year, the reason is that everyone has been working together to find the whereabouts of the Yin Yang Sutra for many years, and it is rumored that they are looking for a way to live forever.
After signing a contract that came out of nowhere in the Taoist sect, the Taoist priest can do things that ordinary people can't do, and he can also get things that others can't get, but in exchange for a generational curse.
Everything has a spirit, and Taoist priests can only alleviate the pain caused by curses by constantly cultivating and absorbing the essence of all things, but unfortunately after absorbing the aura of the outside world, not many people can balance their own yin and yang five elements, so they are usually counterattacked, and life is worse than death in the final stage of life.
Everyone in the Three Great Gates is in danger and miserable, and they all want to fundamentally solve this problem, and it is generally believed that the solution should be in the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor's book "Yin Yang Sutra", then it is necessary to find the tomb of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, but unfortunately after thousands of years of war, especially the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the four old after liberation, many clues have been broken.
Since the decline of the Nine Star Dao, the Nine Star Sect has been incarnated into the Nine Star Sect, and has been lingering in a small Taoist temple in Maoshan for a long time, and the outside world does not know that the Nine Star Dao has some special relationship with Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor.
Speaking of this, Shen Jinsan immediately thought of the plaque with the Nine Stars Observatory written under the ruined wall on the top of Jinling, it seems that what Ge Zhengqing said is true, and he feels that this door and Heimiao always have an inexplicable connection in some things, especially in the point of being cursed, it is almost the same, but the form is different, all of this should be caused by learning the "Yin Yang Sutra".
Shen Jinsan: "Since there is a curse for signing the contract, why do some people still join the Daomen?" ”
Ge Zhengqing: "Because as long as the contract is signed, future generations will also be implicated by the curse, and the Daomen must always be inherited, and the wealth in the Daomen is also unimaginable, where is it like the Nine Star Sect, it has fallen to this point, and many spells can change their lives against the sky and control people's minds, how many people can withstand this temptation." ”
Ge Zhengqing continued, back then, he had to go down the mountain earlier than other junior brothers, but unfortunately the situation was unstable, he had no Dao method, but his life was not easy.
When he was wandering the rivers and lakes, he accidentally met a captain who touched the gold by chance, and learned the method of tomb robbery and grave digging from him.
Later, I learned from the master that the Nine Star Dao may have obtained the "Yin Yang Sutra", if it is true, it must be stored in the Nine Star Dao Sect Altar in the Huayang Cave of Maoshan Mountain.
Ge Zhengqing chose a clear night and prepared to enter Huayang Cave alone, which was surrounded by big trees and thick vines, and no one had entered for many years.
Close to the entrance of the cave and the spring stream passes, blocking the outside of the yang energy to enter, directly opposite five steps away there is an old locust, feng shui is regarded as a tree "sleepy", the locust tree yin energy can weaken the yang energy here, here is a ghost gate.
Ge Zhengqing lit a torch with a fire fold and carefully poked in, Huayang Cave is extremely deep, it is extremely cold inside, even on a hot day it will make people have goosebumps, and he feels abnormal under his feet during the journey, he shaved off a thick layer of moss on the ground, and found that more than a foot of charcoal and ash were laid here to isolate moisture.
The purpose of this arrangement is to keep the corpse from decaying, and Taoism attaches great importance to the physical body, which is also common sense, but Ge Zhengqing is faintly uneasy in his heart.
To the depths, Jiuxing Road built a square tower here with Nanmu according to the cave potential, and there is a soul bell hanging under the eaves of each floor outside the tower, it seems that this building has three floors, and the ground of the first floor is installed with a slightly arched secret door in the corner, and it seems that there is another thing underground.
Behind the first floor, there is a copper incense burner that is more than half a person high and full of incense ash, and behind it is the offering table, on which there is a bronze statue of Sanqing, and the wall is written with Qidu text, and the side is the escalator leading to the second floor.
Ge Zhengqing looked carefully, but found no place to hide anything, so he creaked the escalator up to the second floor.
Sure enough, there were more than a dozen coffins in this building as he expected, and the coffins were erected to knee height, probably for fear of corpse change, so the coffins did not touch the ground.
The four sides of the room have a mantra written on them, and there are yellow ribbons and a soul banner hanging on the beams, and the situation on the third floor is probably the same.
It's just that I don't know if the "Yin Yang Sutra" will be in the coffin, and now I have to open the coffins one by one to know.
The coffins were placed in an orderly manner, and on the coffin board was a lotus lantern that had long been extinguished, and a small incense burner was placed on the ground facing the coffin, and the remaining incense burned in the past was still left.
Seeing these incense burners, Ge Zhengqing became greedy, several of them are yellow and gold, the shape is thick and powerful, it is very likely that it is cast by the sealed demon copper, it is a royal gift of the Ming Dynasty, and it is worth a lot of money in the market.
The altar of the Nine Star Sect has been abandoned for a hundred years, and there is no need for it to exist, and he is already a disciple of the Nine Star Sect, and when he is done, Ge Zhengqing is ready to steal the incense burner in exchange for money.
When the coffin was opened, the corpses inside had turned into white bones, and the robes full of corpses turned into dust in an instant after seeing the fresh air.
There was a handful of dust in each coffin, and a jade plaque with him, Ge Zhengqing put it back next to the bones after reading it, and there were a few Taoist numbers he recognized, and they were several of the Taoist masters of the past dynasties.
Ascending to the third floor, the situation was the same, and there was no trace of the "Yin Yang Sutra", Ge Zhengqing had to go back to the first floor, pull out the wooden pin and lift the secret door, and the Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra was written on the back.
Seeing the spell, Ge Zhengqing felt apprehensive in his heart, this Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra is not ordinary, it can be used for the living but it will prolong the illness, but for the dead to use it for the purpose of suppressing the soul.
In order to keep the corpse, the yin qi here gathers and does not disperse, nourishing the dead with the yin essence, if there is really a corpse in it, the yin essence will be sucked away, only a hundred years, there will be a great murderer, is it because there is a change in the lower head that abandoned this place.
Ge Zhengqing believed that he was profound, and he was not afraid of evil ghosts and zombies, so he settled down and fixed a hemp rope nearby.
He took out a gossip mirror from his bosom, bit the black lightning strike wooden short sword pinned to his waist, and then turned over and dismounted, and climbed down the trembling wooden ladder.
Unexpectedly, the hemp rope broke halfway through the climb, the ladder cracked under the heavy pressure, and Ge Zhengqing, who was caught off guard, fell into the pile of dead people.
When he got up and looked at it, Ge Zhengqing, who had always regarded himself as invincible, was also chilling in his heart, this was a funnel-shaped feather pool, and the stairs of more than ten floors and more than one meter high were full of dead Taoist priests sitting cross-legged, some had become white bones, some had turned into dried corpses, and there were traces of fighting, which was extremely terrifying.
What is the feathering pool, the person who has attained the Tao in the Dao Gate is about to die or has just died, will be placed in the feather pool, waiting for the feather to ascend to immortal, if the body is rotten, you will lose the opportunity to become an immortal.
On the way down, the short sword and the gossip mirror disappeared, Ge Zhengqing hurriedly turned over the pile of dead people to look for them, but fortunately, both things were there.
Just wanted to reach out to take it, only to hear a "woo" above his head, a gust of fishy wind hit, Ge Zhengqing had to shrink his neck, rolled down a few steps, he raised his body and looked at it, a black-haired zombie with only half a body fell on the pile of dead people.
Ge Zhengqing's brows tightened, and he suddenly felt a tearing pain behind him, which seemed to be injured by a zombie.
He felt bad in his heart, now that he had no weapon for self-defense, and he didn't have time to borrow the method, if he lost his yang energy to fight with it, if he met a more powerful character later, it would definitely be difficult to parry.
With black gas spewing out of the zombie's mouth and two boar-like fangs on its jawbone, this kind of zombie is no ordinary walking corpse.
Ge Zhengqing put his death to life, and when he turned over and stood up, he rushed towards the zombie, and the zombie went crazy, kicked on the ground with his hands and feet, and flew towards him.
When the zombie approached, Ge Zhengqing hurriedly dodged sideways, but he was still caught with a few bloody cuts on his waist, and he didn't expect that he would suffer such a big loss as soon as he came in.
Jumping up a few steps, he quickly grabbed the gossip mirror, and held the short sword in his palm with the other hand, and the zombie had already been killed at this time.
Ge Zhengqing dodged next to him, raised the gossip mirror to shine on the zombie's face, and the zombie roared wildly and blocked it with his arm.
"Heaven and Earth Xuanzong! Nine Star Borrowing! Destroy the Evil! After reciting the incantation at great speed, Ge Zhengqing bit his index finger and smeared the blood on the front of the gossip mirror.
A beam of golden light shot out from the gossip mirror and hit the zombie's body, the zombie wanted to escape but couldn't move, it was full of smoke, and its eyes immediately turned into pus.
Ge Zhengqing took another step closer, a cold light flashed, and the zombie's head was cut off by him with a dagger.
