Before leaving, I left 30,000 yuan for Yanli, and gave the remaining 10,000 yuan to Wang Jiliang, asking him to buy more basic daily necessities for the neighbors.

Tell them to go out of the village as little as possible.

Wang Jiliang contacted Yang Guoshan and asked about the situation of the antique Li, it turned out that there was another accident in Linxian, and several staff members who had been in contact with the ancient bell died one after another, and the death and cause of death were exactly the same as the dead Director Wei.

There was such a big thing, and I couldn't hide it if I wanted to, and soon the local public security bureau set up a special team, and after checking and checking, I found the ancient tomb, so I invited the antique Li to go.

Wang Jiliang helped contact Director Li of Linxian County again, saying that he introduced me to help solve the case.

Director Li knows me! I also knew that I knew some Taoism, so I naturally agreed very happily.

Early the next morning, I asked Li Xiaobai to send me to the town, where there was a special bus to Linxian.

When I arrived at the Linxian Cultural Center, it was already eleven o'clock, and the doorman sent me to Director Li's office.

"Here, Xiao Zhen! You sit casually. ”

I saw him writing something, sweating profusely, with a few clumps of waste paper on his desk.

"What are you writing about! Curator Lee? ”

I sat for a while, looking at his sad face and the bags under his eyes, and I couldn't help but ask.

"Hey! Isn't there a big incident in the museum? Several people have died in a row, and they are all in the same department, and I, the number one, have been lectured several times! I don't need to submit an explanatory document! ”

"That's it! Has the case been solved? I asked.

"Solve the case? There are no doors. Now the more you check, the more bizarre it becomes! The antique Li who came with you last time also went to the cemetery, probably because there is a problem with this cemetery......"

I waited for a while, and Director Li finished writing the materials, took me to the unit's cafeteria for lunch, and hurriedly called Santana from the unit.

In the car, I asked again, "Do you know whose grave this is?" ”

"I don't know the specifics of this, I heard Xiao Song in the unit say that it doesn't look like a human tomb."

The more I listened, the more confused I became, why wasn't it a human tomb? Is it still a pig or a dog? So he hurriedly asked:

"Didn't you say last time that this ancient bell was the only burial object for the owner of the tomb? Now what's ......?"

Curator Li shook his head and said, "Wrong! Wrong! What ancient bell is the burial goods of the owner of the tomb, as if I heard them say that this tomb is the one of this bell, and the dead in the tomb are the burial of the ancient bell. ”

My head grew big when I heard it, what a thing! How can someone still give a bell to accompany the funeral?

Soon the car stopped, this is a deserted field, a few tens of meters from the road, there is a large pile of dirt, next to several people and several cars.

I followed Director Li over.

"Curator Li, you're here!" Seeing us pass, a young man in his thirties greeted us.

"Oh, Xiao Song, do you have any new discoveries?"

"Yes! Come and see! ”

As he spoke, Xiao Song led us to a small pile of soil.

I looked at it as just a very ordinary pile of red soil, which was very normal, and it was everywhere along the Yellow River.

"Director Li, look at these soils, the technicians of our county geological bureau have verified them, and there are obvious traces of being blistered by the Yellow River, and the soaking time is not short!"

Director Li asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Xiao Song continued: "This is at least fifty or sixty miles away from the Yellow River, we have checked the county records, in the past two hundred years, even if the Yellow River is flooding, the river has not reached here, but how can there be the perennial soaking of the Yellow River soil? ”

This Xiao Song should be a writer, and he speaks very rigorously, but it is too verbose, I was a little anxious to hear it, and I couldn't help but interject:

"That's right! What does this mean? ”

Xiao Song seemed to be very unhappy with my sudden interjection, glared at me, and replied: "It means that there used to be a large amount of Yellow River water here!" ”

Director Li hurriedly asked, "Where did the water come from?" It can't come out of the ground, can it? ”

Xiao Song actually replied: "That's right! It was out of the ground that they found a shallow underground river under this ancient tomb, and the water of the Yellow River was flowing in the river! ”

Xiao Song rambled a lot layer after layer.

It turned out that after discovering that this cemetery was a little strange, the task force immediately invited antique Li to conduct a more detailed exploration of this ancient tomb in the past two days.

Antique Lee is not an ordinary person! In addition to his rich knowledge of antique cultural relics, he is also well versed in the traditional and mysterious feng shui of our country, which is what we usually say will see the "Yin and Yang House".

When the antique Li saw this ancient tomb for the first time, he was speechless, he said that there should be no ancient tomb in this place, the reason is that this is an extremely cold place, the feng shui is extremely poor, people who know a little about feng shui can see it, and the ancients paid special attention to the choice of the yin house, how could they be buried in such a place?

He went down to the tomb and found that the layout of the cemetery was also wrong.

Almost all the ancient tombs in our country are in the southwest and northeast directions, so that the deceased can smoothly set foot on the "Western Avenue", but this ancient tomb is in the east-west direction, which has never been seen in the ancient tombs excavated in the past dynasties.

Antique Li once saw a kind of "sucking tomb" in an ancient book dedicated to introducing the strange traditional culture of the Yellow River Basin, which buried something called "Yellow River Evil Thing", which gathered the evil spirit in the Yellow River, so it was suppressed by the masters with this kind of tomb.

It is also recorded in ancient books that this kind of tomb must be selected in a place where the Yellow River can reach, and the final tomb sealing ceremony must be completed with "human sacrifice".

Seeing this strange ancient tomb, combined with recent events, Antique Li thought of the "Suckering Tomb".

Antique Li seems to be obsessed with the study of this ancient tomb, and he has been staying in the tomb for the past two days, and his hard work has paid off, and he has really found clues.

In addition to discovering the place where the purpose is, which is the outlet of an underground river, he also used his knowledge of feng shui yin and yang to dig up a stone tablet in the southwest corner of the cemetery.

This is a Taishan basalt stele.

This kind of stele comes from a cliff on the top of Mount Tai called "Immortal Moon Looking", and the stone is extremely hard.

The above text is also puzzling, it is actually a kind of writing used in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, according to incomplete records, this kind of writing is related to a certain religion, but in the late Tang Dynasty, it was suddenly no longer used.

It is said that there are very few people in the country who can read this kind of writing, but fortunately, the antique Li is one of them.

……

Listening to Xiao Song talk about this, I thought of the ancient picture in the cowhide envelope, is this the same kind of writing?

……

There is only one thing recorded on this slate, which is translated to the effect that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was a closed ancient village in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, and one day a meteorite fell down, and the iron content of this meteorite was as high as 90 percent - that is, this is a meteorite with a very high iron content.

Originally, people didn't care about it anymore, but when they came to the scene later, the villagers who saw the meteorite had strange physical phenomena, some young people became hunchbacked old men overnight, and some old people became strong young people overnight.

When the village learned the news, they judged that it was the cause of this meteorite, so they asked several of the most skilled craftsmen in the village to make it into three bells.

……

Because no other finds were found in the tomb, an order was soon received to "stop the investigation".

I don't know why, the task force left all the tools they brought, as well as the groundwater detection equipment, in the tomb, and then quickly left the tomb.

Curator Li just told us that the case had been solved, thanked the antique Li for helping to solve the case, and other high-sounding words, and gave him a thousand yuan.

Antique Lee and I were dumbfounded, and we didn't know what had happened in the end.

Later, I heard Yang Guoshan talk about what happened next, and it turned out that the leaders of Linxian County didn't want to die anymore, so they held the idea of "I'd rather believe it than believe it", and asked people to bury the ancient bell secretly, and sealed the ancient tomb according to its original appearance.

This has little to do with our story, so I won't repeat it.

When all this was done, I secretly showed the antique Li the ancient picture of the cowhide envelope, and after only a few glances, his face changed, and he quickly asked me where the picture came from.

I don't need to hide it from him, just a brief description of what happened before.

"It's a map! It's just that the words and graphics it uses are very special, and I'm afraid there are few people in the world who can understand it! ”

As she spoke, she stroked her sparse beard, revealing a very proud look.

I thought to myself: I already knew that you could understand it, otherwise Xiao Zhenye, I would have spent so much trouble here, why did I come here to find you!

Thinking so in his heart, he still pretended to flatter a few words in confusion: "Experts are experts!" Looks like I've found the right person!"

Antique Li is also very useful for my whiskers, hehe smiled, and cracked this ancient picture for me.

He pointed to the seemingly irregular lines as he translated the text.

"This map marks a place...... This place is in the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River...... Located between three mountains......"

As he spoke, Antique Lee suddenly stopped.

After a full three minutes of pause, he shuddered and his face changed color.

I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Old man? ”

Antique Li gasped, sighed, and then a smile appeared on his face:

"What a creation! There is such a coincidence in this world! ”

I was so confused by him that my curiosity rose to my head, and I hurriedly urged: "Old man, you should say it quickly!" What is written in the text behind this! ”

Antique Lee patted me on the shoulder, laughed a few times, and replied:

"You've also heard Xiao Song say that the text on the stone tablet in the 'Suckering Tomb' has not been recorded, right?"

I nodded.

"It's the same language!" Antique Li said excitedly.

"I've thought of this too, but ......"

Before I could finish my sentence, he said, "But there is one thing you may not have thought of! The place marked on this ancient map is the ancient village where the meteorite recorded on the stone tablet fell. ”
