Chapter 204: Who the heavens spare
It is rumored that Zhuge Kongming defeated Wei Weicheng but his longevity was coming, and he had no choice but to borrow the art of the stars to extend his life, the so-called art of the stars, is to use the seven-star lamp to swing the Big Dipper Seven Star Array, but when casting the spell, Sima Yi feinted to attack the camp, and the general Wei Yan suddenly broke into the account, resulting in the failure of the continuation of life, and his life was in danger.
Failure to continue his life, Zhuge Kongming himself also has no skills to return to the sky, but he doesn't want his tomb to be found, so Zhuge Kongming made arrangements for his future affairs before he died, he only needs nine people to deal with the aftermath for him, these nine people, are some selfish death row prisoners, eight of them carry the coffin, one person cooks on fire.
He instructed that after his death, he set out from the camp, and eight coffin bearers carried his body all the way to the direction of Dingjun Mountain, and walked without stopping, and where the coffin rope was broken, it was the place where he was buried, and then the people who lived and cooked cooked a meal for everyone to eat, and by the way, they could go away after paying homage to him.
In ancient times, many people did not want to be harassed after death, some emperors and even dignitaries, when building underground mausoleums, they would never let the people involved in the construction live, revealing the location of the mausoleum, Zhuge Liang also thought so, so he found nine death row prisoners, and the remuneration for these nine people was eight taels of silver.
When the eight coffin-bearers buried him, they discussed that as long as the person who made the fire and cooked the rice was hacked to death, the eight of them could each share one tael of silver.
And the man who made the fire and cooked the rice was also thinking that if he poisoned all eight people, the eight taels of silver would be his.
Therefore, after the eight people buried Kong Ming, they hacked the person who made the fire to cook the rice to death, and the person who made the fire to cook the rice had already poisoned the food, these eight people didn't know it, they were all poisoned after eating, and the nine people who participated in the aftermath of the cooking did not survive, and the real tomb of the Marquis of Wu has also become a peerless secret.
I used to just listen to rumors, but now that I see these nine white bones, it seems that this rumor is indeed true.
But what I can't understand is that the formation of this tomb is very strange, because there is no entrance here at all, and these people are still in the mood to eat and are poisoned, so they must think that they can go out.
That is to say, when they sent Zhuge Kongming here, it was not closed, and the closure of this tomb must have been after these people died, or after they were poisoned.
And Zhuge Kongming did not sleep in the coffin, but sat in front of the desk, could it be that the closure of this tomb was done by Zhuge Kongming himself? That is to say, when Zhuge Kongming was carried here, he was not actually dead, and after the nine people killed each other and all died, he came out of the coffin, sealed the tomb, and then sat in front of the desk until he sat down.
Of course, it is also possible that Zhuge Kongming has an order, and it is those who carry the coffin who put him in front of the desk, but the closure of this tomb must have been after all nine people died, who was the person who closed the tomb?
After searching in the tomb for a while, no other bones were found, and there were no other traces, it seems that Zhuge Kongming did not die at that time, this tomb of Wuhou was indeed sealed by himself, and with the wisdom of Zhuge Liang, he can do this.
I walked to the desk again, trying to find some clues, Zhuge Liang is a person who has the secret method of the Zhuge clan, then he must also be a profound cultivator, plus the previous rumors that there is a secret of immortality, Zhuge Liang's purpose may also be to understand this secret, but now the white bones behind the desk prove one thing, that is, he did not succeed.
More than a dozen jade and bamboo slips on the desk are covered by a leather scroll, which is face down, and looks to have been specially treated and well preserved.
I walked over, Zhao Yixian seemed to know that I was going to take something, and she took the initiative to get out of my palm and wrapped it around my arm, it seems that her injury is almost healed, but Neidan was shattered by Jiaoyue, and it takes a long time to recover.
I reached out and picked up the leather scroll, and sure enough, there was a golden text on it:
"If you can attack the heart, you will eliminate yourself on the other side, and you know from ancient times that soldiers are not belligerent. The use of soldiers is so, the practice is also the same, my longevity can be hundreds of years, helpless, the life of the fire jealous but the fire of the life, however, the matter is only three, I control the fire four hurt the heavens and the failure, the failure to continue life, not the fault of the chief, is the punishment of heaven, can not be avoided, now the mandate of heaven is known, attack in the mind but can not protect themselves, good at occult but ambitious is not rewarded, this is the destiny of heaven, sad, sad. ”
In a short paragraph, Zhuge Kongming's helplessness was expressed.
The meaning of this passage is very intuitive, it is said that people who really understand the use of soldiers, are not warmakers who like to fight, the use of soldiers is like this, and the same is true of cultivation, his longevity was originally hundreds of years, but he was hit by fire, but at the age of knowing the mandate of heaven (the ancient fifty knew the mandate of heaven) (Zhuge Liang was fifty-three years old when he died), he used fire to attack four times and burned countless people, and the reason why he failed to continue his life was not because of Wei Yan's fault, but because of the punishment of heaven.
I thought about what Zhuge Kongming meant by 'controlling fire and hurting the heavens', and I understood it in an instant.
Zhuge Kongming once used four fire attacks, the first was to burn Bowangpo, the second time was to burn Chibi, the third time was to burn the vine armor soldiers, and the fourth time was to burn the upper valley.
In the burning of Bowangpo, Liu Bei's army is thousands, Cao Cao's army is tens of thousands, and as a last resort, Zhuge Liang has adopted the strategy of burning, which burns Cao Jun's trampling on each other, and the dead are countless, which is the first time Zhuge Liang hurts Tianhe.
The burning of Chibi may be the most famous battle in the Three Kingdoms period, the Sun and Liu coalition forces joined forces to resist Cao, hundreds of thousands of troops died in a fire, Zhuge Liang had already thought of this method, but he did not dare to come out again, that is, he was afraid that he would be punished in the future if he hurt Tianhe again, so he dialed Zhou Yu, so that Zhou Yu thought of the way to attack the fire, but the situation was critical, everything was ready only to owe the east wind, Zhuge Liang had no choice but to borrow the east wind, which was the second injury to the heavens.
When the rattan armor soldiers were burned, they were also forced to be helpless, and this time Zhuge Liang's destiny was directly shifted, and at this time, he also realized the seriousness of the matter.
But Zhuge Liang had great ambitions, and he wanted to help Shu and dominate the world, in order to repay Liu Bei's kindness to the thatched house, and lit a fire again in the upper valley.
The fire in the upper valley can burn all the grain and grass of Wei, and even burn his biggest enemy Sima Yi, but the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes, as he himself said, it is only three things, and this is the fourth time.
Zhuge Liang is proficient in astronomy and geography, and has long calculated that it will not rain after arson, and the way of heaven does not allow him to hurt Tianhe, a sudden heavy rain saved the Wei army, Zhuge Liang himself also lost his life, and the great cause of Wei was completely defeated.
I silently put down the leather scroll in my hand, and finally understood why a powerful mystic with the secret method of the Zhuge clan would end up buried here.
And since ancient times, who has it spared?
Looking at the bones of Zhuge Kongming sitting behind the desk in a daze, I felt lonely for a while, what happened to him? What happened to me?
"Ah~~~" Zong Qiqi's cheerful voice came from behind him, excited and excited.
I turned my head to look at Zong Qiqi and said, "Congratulations, I have successfully stepped into the realm of the Ghost King." ”
Zong Qiqi turned his head to look at me after hearing my voice, and said with a smile: "Zhao Lianfan, you are awake, thanks to you, I am already the sixth layer of the ghost handsome, the cultivation environment in the tomb of the Marquis of Wu is excellent, stepping into the realm of the ghost king, it is just a logical thing, by the way, I want to ask you a question." ”
"Okay, you ask." I said with a smile.
"How long has it been since we were hunting the hatchery of the branch?" Zong Qiqi asked seriously.
"Then tell me how long I've been unconscious."
"It should be less than a month."
I was a little speechless in my heart, I was in a coma for a month, I didn't eat for a month, I didn't starve to death, it seems that this Wuhou Tomb really has his power.
Thinking this in my heart, I replied, "It's been more than three years since we hatched the nest in the first place. ”
"Three years? How is this possible? In just three years, you have refined me from a lowest-level guardian Yin Soul Sacrifice to a sixth-level ghost commander??? It's impossible, don't lie to me, don't say three years, even if it's thirty years, it's impossible. Zong Qiqi shook his head and said to himself.
(Thank you to the godhead of Lao Tie "ceekay" for the reward.) )
