Chapter 150: Ghost Text
When Chu Tianlu said this, the loach suddenly rekindled his confidence, he turned around and left the autumn rain with a confused face, and came to the arched door.
The series of Changsha dialects of Loach just now are also mixed with some Jianghu black words, which are not incomprehensible without Mandarin level 10, not to mention that she is a Chinese living in the West. Although Qiu Yu, who was confused, couldn't understand it, she could still guess the general meaning, and in the end she could only shake her head in embarrassment and follow up.
As soon as Chu Tianlu was about to raise his hand to touch the carving on the door frame, he felt that the compass in his inner pocket seemed to be still vibrating, and he suddenly remembered that the missing needle on the compass before was a harbinger of great evil.
Chu Tianlu took out the compass and saw that the tengu pointer on it was shaking even more than before, which couldn't help but cast a shadow on Chu Tianlu's heart again.
I used to look at the loach's posture and thought that something was on his body, and the compass would lose a needle, but now it seems that there must be something strange in this door. Could it be that inside is the altar that Hu Hai said?
Chu Tianlu said to the three of them with a worried look on his face: "The evil spirit is too heavy here, maybe there is something hidden in it, let's be careful, don't get separated, everyone will take care of it together." ”
Chu Tianlu put the compass into his inner pocket again, and before he could lift his foot and move forward, the loach on the side let out a slight mutter: "The thing engraved on this is really strange, it doesn't play cards according to the routine at all, just like a ghost drawing talisman." ”
When Chu Tianlu heard the ghost drawing, he couldn't help but think of what Hu Hai had said before, at that time, the altar was built to borrow life from the ghost, could it be that the people who built this place at that time knew the ghost language?
Chu Tianlu also observed the carvings on the door frame at this moment, as the loach said, the carvings on the door frame are not insects, birds, flying beasts, nor oracle bone seals, some are a bit like the tower incense hanging in modern temples, from the inside to the outside circle to get bigger, the only thing that can distinguish them is the number of circles, and the difference from the final end point. Others are like random portrayals by people, and there is no pattern to be found.
Although those carvings have passed slowly for thousands of years under the wheel of history, they have not been dulled by the passage of time. This may be due to the environment in which they are located!
Because the wall is very large, it completely obscures the scenery inside, but sets off the space inside more mysterious and weird. For a while, they hesitated and hesitated.
"These are ghost texts." The dumb turtle on the side said coldly, and Chu Tianlu seemed to hear a little strange emotion from his words.
Chu Tianlu's guess is completely consistent with what the dumb turtle said, and it is really an engraved ghost language, but how can the dumb turtle know it?
"Dumb turtle, I see that you kid is quite honest, I didn't expect you to have a cold humor!! It's also a ghost text! I said it's a god, is it a good thing? It's just complete alarmism, who do you want to scare? "The loach will be unhappy with anyone, especially the dumb turtle who just made him suffer a big loss, he just seized the opportunity to scold him.
The dumb turtle is still the same, and it doesn't even look at the loach with its eyes, let alone refute it! But the more he did this, the more angry the loach became, and his face was now flushed again, as if he was going to fight someone.
Chu Tianlu said angrily: "Fat brother, you save some effort!" It's just stopped for a while, is it so strong that you have nowhere to vent? Why don't you go first? ”
When Loach saw Chu Tianlu talking, although he was full of upset, no matter what people said, he was also his top boss, and he still had to give this face, so he muttered: "I won't go in by myself." I'm right, I've been with the second master for many years, and I haven't seen the ghost text he said, and I've never heard of it. Don't our second master know more about this little one? ”
Chu Tianlu shook his head helplessly, turned to Xiang Dumb Turtle and asked, "Dumb Turtle, you said this is a ghost text?" How do you know? Do you know each other? After speaking, Chu Tianlu looked directly at the dumb turtle, waiting for his reply.
The dumb turtle did not avoid Chu Tianlu's eyes, and met Chu Tianlu's eyes, frowned, and shook his head again.
The appearance of the dumb turtle gave Chu Tianlu the feeling that he was trying his best to recall something, and he couldn't remember the feeling. Chu Tianlu thought: Now is not the time to dwell on this matter, let's go in and take a look.
The so-called ghost text is a text that ghosts can understand, also called 殄文 or anti-text. There is also an untold story of its origin.
According to legend, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a strange man named Zegong. The reason why he is famous in the local area is because he has been in and out of the Ghost Mansion of the Underworld, and one of his right arms has been cut off, and he has returned to the yang world.
If you want to say why he was left with an arm by the ghost, it has to start with one of his whims.
Ze Gong was born to talk to some lonely ghosts. One day, his good friend suddenly died, and looking at those heartbroken relatives, he had a whim, hoping that the surrounding villagers could have some contact with their relatives in the Yin Si. So he concentrated on studying a set of words that could be understood by ghosts at home.
This alarmed the ghost judgment at that time, and after taking him to Yinsi, he was not allowed to write anymore, who knew that this person was a tendon temper. Because his move was also a good deed, and because his yang life had not yet arrived, in the end, the ghost judge could only ask for his right hand to write and put him back in the yang world.
After returning, Ze Gong did not stop studying because of the loss of his right hand, and finally let him perfect a set of fonts that can communicate with the underworld.
Because of the particularity of ghost writing, there are even fewer people who can master and use it, so gradually no one knows it. And the reason why it is called anti-text is because those texts were written by Ze Gong with his left hand.
It is said that Yuan Tiangang, a feng shui master of the Tang Dynasty, was well versed in this, but he had never heard of him having a descendant.
The four of them stepped into the arched door, less than two meters away from the photo wall, and found that the photo wall was smooth and abnormal, and there was nothing!! This was quite a surprise to everyone.
"Cut, it seems that there is nothing here, and I am reluctant to paint even a mural, I hope that I can find something decent in it, and it will not be in vain for the fat master to toss this trip." The loach that was talking to himself also followed Chu Tianlu's example, looked at the wall carefully, and moved it inside little by little.
Soon, the four of them bypassed the photo wall, and at the same time, it was dark in front of everyone's eyes. It turned out that after they turned the wall, the faint light reflected off the lake water on the surface of the lake was now gone.
At this moment, it was pitch black in front of the four of them, Qiu Yu subconsciously took a few steps back and then stopped and said, "It's too dark inside, should we get some torches and go in again?" ”
Just as Qiu Yu was speaking, in fact, the three men had already begun to grope in their bags, but there was nothing in them.
In the end, it was Qiu Yu who took out the last light stick from his small bag and lit it, and handed it to Chu Tianlu.
