Chapter 00024 has a demonic aura
Not far from what was speculated at the beginning, this is an ancient tomb built on an underground cavern, or rather, an ancient tomb built on an abyss.
The burial chamber we were in had a narrow and rugged stone path leading to the middle, and in the middle was a large burial chamber with a stone door that had been opened.
The large burial chamber looks as if it was built on a floating stone island.
Eight burial chambers are connected around it, four of which are connected by narrow stone paths, and the remaining four are connected by four giant chains.
The burial chamber is surrounded by a bottomless abyss, and it is pitch black below, and only the outline of the building can be faintly seen.
Looking towards the top, a narrow crack can be seen, through which the night sky can be seen.
The location of Chengfu is not far from the nearby mountain, so this should be the interior of the mountain.
Not only was the stone door of the large tomb on the middle stone island opened, but the doors of the other seven tombs were all opened, and all the coffins that could be seen were also opened.
My grandfather said that if an ancient tomb has not been stolen, it will keep gathering yin qi, and the longer it passes, the heavier the yin qi will gather.
Even if it is stolen, as long as the main burial chamber is not stolen, the yin qi will not completely dissipate.
Because the choice of the main burial chamber is often the easiest place to gather yin qi in an ancient tomb, commonly known as the place of nine yin and absolute evil.
In addition to the cold, this ancient tomb could not feel any yin qi at all, and there was almost no corpse qi, indicating that it had been robbed a long time ago.
The ox looked around with a torch, squatted down to pick up the stones on the ground and threw them into the abyss next to him, without making a sound for a long time.
"Well, it's not going to be hell down here, is it?"
He has no night vision and can only see what is around the torches.
Yao Weimei had a veil on her face, kept staring down, and suddenly frowned after looking at it for a while, "There is a demonic spirit." ”
"Demonic? You're saying there's a youkai down there? "I still don't know what it's like to be demonic.
Qi is a thing that is difficult to say, it all depends on feelings, just like yin qi and corpse qi, you will understand it if you have touched and felt it.
Maybe I haven't had much contact with youkai and can't feel what kind of aura the demon energy is.
Yao Xiaomei shook her head slightly, "It's very weak, I can't be sure yet, I need to take a look below." ”
Tang Jinghong also frowned and stared down, but she didn't speak.
"Although these tombs have been stolen, let's go and see them. Judging from the structure of the tomb on this floor alone, it looks like the layout of the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array. However, the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array also evolved from the technique of Qimen Dunjia, and it is impossible to determine the dynasty.
To find out who the owner of the tomb really is, you need to take a closer look. One thing is certain, however, that such a large-scale burial indicates that the owner of the burial chamber was by no means an idle person.
As long as we figure out the owner of the burial chamber, we will know what the Soul Burial Cult is looking for. ”
I said so much in one breath, and Yao mocked them and just nodded, agreeing with me.
Although the novelty and enthusiasm before going to the tomb, after it was determined that it was an empty tomb that had been stolen, it had become boring. But as long as you can find clues, it's worth continuing.
After confirming, I walked in the front, Niu Meng followed behind me, followed by Tang Jinghong, and Yao Xiaomei walked in the back.
The stone path leading to the middle chamber was only one man wide, so I tied me with the ox with a rope to prevent anyone from stumbling and falling.
Tang Jinghong and Yao Xiaomei didn't care, they didn't tie ropes to each other. And I'm embarrassed to tell them, if Niu Meng and I fall, you two will pull us along, right?
In this case, it is not manly.
Even if I knew that the tomb had been stolen, I wouldn't dare to take it lightly.
Along the way, he walked cautiously, trying to find out what might be in the tomb.
There was nothing special about the stone road, and the four of us easily reached the large burial chamber in the middle.
This large burial chamber is larger than the eight smaller burial chambers around it combined.
There is only one room, which is a dome structure. There are eight pillars in the tomb, and these eight pillars are also built according to the direction of the eight trigrams.
On the stone in the middle is the bluestone coffin that has been opened, and there is nothing in the coffin, only a nearly vertical step.
Eight frescoes are carved around the top of the tomb.
"Brother Jiu, this mural is a scene of tribute, right?" Niu Meng asked me, pointing to one of the murals.
I shook my head slightly, "Let me tell you my opinion, these eight murals are supposed to tell the story of the same person." The middle-aged man was worshipping the deity at first, and then received a round item from the deity.
You see, it means that he won the battle with round objects. Next, the middle-aged man sealed the round object, which was stolen and then recovered.
The tribute picture you just mentioned should be a separate piece. The mural looks like a Qin Dynasty when a round object was presented to Qin Shi Huang. Only this one of the eight paintings is written, "the book is the same text" and "the car is on the same track", which is the original words of Qin Shi Huang recorded in the "Historical Records". The remaining seven all look like they were from the Three Kingdoms period.
After the round object was recovered, the middle-aged man held another sacrificial ceremony, and finally buried the round object in his own tomb.
But this is all my guess, and it's not necessarily true. ”
"Can you guess who the man in the painting is?" Yao asked me.
"I probably have an idea, it may be Zhuge Kongming, but I'm not sure." I'll reply to her.
"Then if it is Zhuge Kongming, will this tomb be his?" Yao asked me again.
I shook my head, "It's hard to say, historical records record that Zhuge Kongming's tomb is in Dingjun Mountain in Hanzhong, and the wild history says that when Zhuge Liang was buried, four people carried his coffin all the way to the south, and when the rope was broken, when he was buried."
These four people only carried it for a day, and they didn't want to carry it, so they sawed off the rope and buried Zhuge Liang. When Liu Chan found out, he thought the four of them were lazy and killed the four of them.
Even if it is Yeshi, there are doubts in the middle, how long did these four people carry it, and how many days did they go.
And the possibility that Zhuge Liang's tomb is in Jinling is very small, but even if this tomb is not Zhuge Liang's, it is related to him.
Everything has been stolen, and it is still difficult to accurately judge the dynasty of the ancient tomb, go down and take a look, didn't you say that there is a demonic aura down there?
I have another question, you said that your men saw someone carrying soil to Yongquan Lake, but we only had one thief hole when we came in, and even if there were a few more thief holes, there was no need to go to great lengths to transport the soil out.
So, where did the soil they transport dig up? ”
Yao Weimei bowed slightly: "Let's go down and take a look, half a year has passed since the murder of Cheng Mansion, maybe the entire tomb has been emptied." ”
Tang Jinghong didn't speak, she was always looking at the murals, and I don't know if she listened to me. However, Tang Jinghong looked worried, as if he was worried about something.
I went outside and picked up a stone, tied it to it, and threw it into the hole in the coffin.
The rope was just long enough for the stone to fall to the ground, so I tied the rope to the coffin and prepared to pull the rope down with the ox.
As for Yao Weimei and Tang Jinghong, I don't have to worry, the two of them have a way to go down.
The process is still the old rule, I go first, and Niu Meng follows behind.
The stone path is not narrow, there are steps to climb, and there are ropes tied to the body, so it is not difficult to go down.
After a while, Niu Meng and I went down to the bottom, followed by Yao Yimei and Tang Jinghong, and the two of them also pulled the rope down.
Below is a large burial chamber, about the same size as the one above. There is a passage in each of the four directions, south, south, and north, and there is no coffin in the tomb. There were more than a dozen white bones scattered on the ground, and there were two protruding stones on the walls.
Judging from the degree of weathering of the white bones, at least ten years or more, the ribs of these bones are blackened, and they should have died of poisoning.
There was nothing else in the tomb, maybe it was a mechanism on the wall, a poisonous mist, or some other poisonous bug.
It is also possible to have a hidden weapon, if it is something from the previous dynasty, even if it is a hidden weapon or the like, it can be sold for a good price.
I stood at the stone gates and sniffed, I couldn't smell any special smell, and I was thinking about where to go, Yao Yimei and Tang Jinghong stared at the passage in the east, both frowning.
"What's going on over there?" I asked.
The two of them said in unison, "Demonic." ”
