Chapter 120: Digging a hole to get a turtle

The otax, one of the three masters of the early Han Dynasty, once assassinated Emperor Qin. Later, he defected to Gaozu and made great contributions to the establishment of the Han Dynasty. However, he later chose to retire after success, resigned and went into hiding, and was the only one among the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty who was able to die a good death.

I don't want to provoke such a person, because his ability is far from being as simple as fighting. Legend has it that when "Qimen Dunjia" was first founded, there were a total of 4,320 bureaus, which were later improved to 1,0080 bureaus, and when Jiang Ziya was compressed into 72 bureaus because of the needs of marching formations, the ovary of the Han Dynasty was taught by Huangshi Gong, and it was reformed again, becoming the Yin Dun Nine Bureau, Yang Dun Nine Bureau, a total of 18 bureaus.

In short, the Qimen Dunjia that can be learned now, the ovary is the ancestral master. What did his tomb look like, and what did the tomb he designed look like? I can't help but think of the Eastern Han Dynasty royal tombs that I encountered in Luoyang, which organs made my scalp tingle to this day, but I am afraid that the places related to him are enough for us to drink a pot.

In the car, there doesn't seem to be much to do but sleep. I was worried about my thoughts, and I tossed back and forth between half asleep and half awake.

Finally, I was woken up by Xiao Shirong: "It's time to get there, get off."

I rubbed my eyes vigorously and followed him out of the car. It was dark again, and we were in a mountain valley, and there were no residents around but us.

"Where is this, J City?"

"Yes, the southern mountains of J City."

"The tomb of the ovary is near here?"

"Don't ask, just come with me."

After saying that, he gave his men a gesture, and someone brought him two oil lamps, and he handed me one, and I shook my head: "I don't need it."

"You kid can do it." He turned and threw the lamp to his men, and led the way.

As I followed him, I silently observed these men, and it seemed that the coachmen in each carriage had not come down, and there were a dozen or so men in all, all of whom I had seen for the first time at that time, dressed in black, wearing masks, and showing their true faces.

From the point of view, the most abnormal thing about them is that everyone is carrying a bag, and these bags are strange because they are not uniform, but large and small, red and green, which looks very prominent on this group of uniformly dressed people.

We followed Siu Sai Wing up the mountain from an ancient mountain road. This ancient mountain road is overgrown with weeds and uneven, and it is clear that no one has often walked here for many years. What surprised me was that I saw a lot of cliff carvings along the way, all of which were large and small Buddha statues, although the scale could not be compared with the Dragon Gate, but it was also distinctive.

After climbing for a while, we finally stood on the top of the mountain. The cold wind in the middle of the night made me shrink my neck into my clothes. Xiao Shirong suddenly asked me, "Do you know Feng Shui?"

I said in my heart, but anyone who asks me this question seems to be very easy to say, "I know a little bit about it, what's wrong?" ”

"How about you look at the feng shui in this area?"

I stood on the top of the hill and looked around. I saw that the situation of the mountains and rivers here is quite a dragon and a tiger, and the dragon is a tortuous river, alas?

I looked not far away, and the three waters converged? The last time I saw this feng shui pattern was in Mongolia.

Xiao Shirong looked at it and smiled: "How is it, it's good over there, right?"

"Not bad. I've seen this once, and it's a big guy buried. ”

"Then when do you think Feng Shui Kanyu appeared?"

"Huh? Jin Dynasty? Didn't Guo Pu write a funeral book? ”

He shook his head: "Look over there," he pointed to a mountain not far away, that mountain is called Taijia Mountain, the top of the mountain is called Kangwangding, Taijia is the grandson of Chengtang in the Shang Dynasty, the fourth Shang king, after his death, Taijia Mausoleum is in this Kangwangding. So I have always felt that the concept of feng shui began to appear from the Shang Dynasty and even the Xia Dynasty. There is also the tomb of King Ninghai at the southern foot of King Kangding. From here to the north, there is also a burial belt of the former prince. ”

"You know all this?"

"Isn't that weird?"

I didn't follow the question, otherwise the answer would have been either "don't ask too much" or "passed down from my ancestors".

"So many cultural relics and monuments that no one is looking at?" I asked.

"Most of them don't have the value of robbing tombs anymore, but I've heard that there are garrisons here."

What the? Garrison? I've now put myself in the role of a tomb robber, and the tomb robber sees the officials like they see a grandfather, the army?

He looked at me timidly, sneered and said, "I really don't know how my sister fell in love with you as a coward."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's keep walking."

We started to walk downhill from the top of the hill again, and here it was a long mountain range, high and low, up and down for a long time, and I was very tired.

"I said, how far is it?"

"Soon, just ahead."

"The ovary built the tomb on the mountain?"

"I said you, don't keep talking nonsense if you don't understand, okay?"

"You know, you're telling me?"

"This is the Ovary Cave, the place where he soared into an immortal."

"So what exactly are we looking for? Didn't you say you went to the ovary grave? ”

He shook his head and walked on, ignoring me.

To be honest, his attitude made me a little angry, and I didn't bother to ask him again.

It wasn't until we climbed down a hill that I realized that there was such a hole in front of me.

But it's no longer the original hole, not to mention that the entrance of the cave has been built, and the big iron gate is still locked at this time, so you can see that it is a place that is managed.

I took a closer look, the door of the cave is made of bluestone coupons, it looks regular, and the forehead is embedded with the eight characters of "Hanliu Hou Zifang Hidden Immortal Cave", which should be the ovary cave that Xiao Shirong said.

Xiao Shirong took the oil lamp and found the iron lock on the door, and gave a look to one of his subordinates, and the man understood, and quickly took out a tool from his bag, I didn't even see what kind of trick he used, and the lock that fell had been taken in his hand.

Xiao Shirong led the team in, and I followed in, only to see that there were three stone statues in the cave, but the group continued to walk in as if they didn't see it.

The hole was very shallow, and it didn't take a few steps to reach the end, and just when I was wondering, Xiao Shirong gave another eye order, and I watched his people perform with the mood of watching the play.

Unexpectedly, this time it was not like the drama just now, a few people took out a few sticks from their bags and assembled them, I said in my heart that this is to splice a Luoyang shovel? As a result, they each took out another hammer from their bag, and how many hammers did they fit together?

Then they began to work in pairs, one with a hammer and the other with a large metal tool like a chisel, with the pointed ends pressed against the wall. Soon, they began to clink and smash.

I was worried that this was attracting managers, and at the same time I was curious about what they were doing.

It was a stone wall, and they knocked for a long time, but they made four deep eyes side by side on the stone wall. When Xiao Shirong saw this, he said, "Okay, stand back."

When the men heard the command, they hurried back. Xiao Shirong took out a strange thing from his bag, like a thin reed rod, and put one end into his eyes one by one, and blew the other end with his mouth.

As soon as he finished blowing, he put it away again. Then, to my surprise, there were four obvious cracks in the stone wall, and the width was enlarged at a speed visible to the naked eye. This is? This guy melted the stone?

I saw that the entire stone wall had sunk in, forming a neat "closet". Xiao Shirong asked his subordinates to strike again, and then concocted it in the same way, so three times, he really opened up this layer of stone wall, and there was still a cave behind it, but it was obvious that no one had entered it for many years. Could it be? Is the ovary buried in it?

I followed them inside, but it didn't look like a tomb at all, but more like a real cave than the place before, with no traces of artificiality, and the soil under my feet was even a little soft. It stands to reason that although it is not the practice of the Han Dynasty to rely on the mountain as a mausoleum, if there are bound to be traces of processing here, even if the bricks are not paved, at least the soil will be tamped.

But it's a cave, and it's like a cave, I've only seen it in books, and the stones are unusual in shape.

As I walked with them, the cave became narrower and lower, and with some strangely shaped stones, we avoided at first, and then had to change shapes, and even had to make some awkward movements to get through. Just when I wondered why the gang had come to such a place, there was something not far ahead, glowing like fireflies.

Xiao Shirong stepped forward quickly and took the object off a platform. Reflexively, we changed the back team into the front team, and walked back to an open place.

Only then did I realize that what he was holding in his hand was a piece of turtle that looked like gold. However, there is no light shining at this time, and it is actually glowing.

Before I could ask, Xiao Shirong ordered: "Take out the things and divide them!"

I saw several of his subordinates take out an incense burner and incense from their respective bags and hand them to everyone.

"On the watch, two people in a group, one per minute, give me a little sharpness in my hands and feet, do you hear?"

"Yes!" Only then did I know that these people were not deaf and mute, and they were really well-trained to hold back their silence until now. Combined with what they just did, I can't help but feel even more that they are a group of professional grave robbers.

Xiao Shirong's subordinates stood in groups, and he walked up to me, so that there were exactly eight groups in total, Xiao Shirong took out several incense burners from his bag and stuffed them into my hands, and said to me: "You can just stand, don't make trouble for me."

Before I could speak, he said, "All ready!" 5,4,3,2,1! ”

As he shouted "1", he wirled the tail of the golden turtle in his hand, and suddenly, I found myself in another place.
