Chapter Thirty-Nine
Zhang Guozhong kept looking for both sides of the stone wall with a flashlight, only to see that one side was densely carved with inscriptions, and the other side was indeed a completely different thing, which seemed to be a map and an ancient seal.
"What is this?" A strong sense of déjà vu, all the memories flashed in Zhang Guozhong's head, and he suddenly remembered that the two photos of jade scans scanned by Qin Ge came to mind.
took out the photo, Zhang Guozhong looked at the things on the wall, "Obedient, it's exactly the same..."
"Guozhong, this can't be a belly back print, right?" Old Liu Tou also came up at this moment, and kept shining a flashlight on the stone wall.
The "belly back seal" is a kind of mechanism made by spells, and there are legends that it is a thing that descends to the religion, and there are also things that are said to be taught by Maoshan, and its principle is to use the position relationship between the "seal" and the "symbol" to produce effect. (The seal is "彖印", and the symbol is "Soul Bundle Talisman")
Among them, the function of the "Soul Binding Talisman" is to use a certain power of the Soul Binding Spell to bind the evil ghosts and souls within a certain range and cannot leave, and as long as the "Demon Suppression Talisman" is opposite to the top and bottom of the Talisman, and the upper Talisman is printed below, the effect of the "Soul Binding Talisman" can be offset by the "Seal of the Soul" directly above, but if the Talisman and the Seal are left and right, then the "Demon Suppression Seal" is invalid against the "Soul Binding Talisman", and once something with yang energy appears between the two, the effect of the "Soul Binding Talisman" will take effect, and the evil ghosts bound by it will be released immediately.
Because this kind of thing is close to a legend, so Lao Liu Tou is just guessing at the moment, if the guess is true, then this thing should really belong to the Maoshan Sect and not the Descending Sect that only appeared at the end of the Song Dynasty.
At this time, Zhang Guozhong suddenly recalled what Wang Zhongjian said about making a rosewood shelf for the jade, presumably the inside of the jade must also be engraved with the "belly back print", and the material filled in the middle is definitely not a simple jade powder, it must also carry a kind of yang material such as red nitrate, so when the jade is placed flat and engraved with the side of the "Yi seal" on it, it will be safe, once the jade is placed vertically, the material filled in the middle can stimulate the power of the "soul talisman", provoking the surrounding evil spirits, this must be the real Sendai town platform has a groove, The reason why jade seems to need to stand and stick it there. The British don't know what jade is, so they must have put the jade flat and stuffed it into a place, and Wang Zhongjian had to make a shelf to put the jade up, plus this itself is a piece of poisonous jade, no wonder the family is always haunted. Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong also put down a stone psychologically, at least the Wang family's affairs are half solved, as for why the jade went back by itself, it may be a certain characteristic of the poisonous jade itself or something else in the Wang family is at work.
"Try it first..."Zhang Guozhong took out a life talisman and threw it into the stone corridor, and after less than 30 seconds, he saw white smoke rising from the life talisman.
"Guozhong, it seems that this is indeed a belly back print..."Lao Liu Tou squatted and pondered, the wall was full of inscriptions, unless he dug a hole and dug it, even if he flew in, he would get the way, while thinking, Lao Liu Tou stabbed the ground with a dagger, and the hard ground was all stone slag mixed with soil, and he couldn't dig it with this folding shovel on his body alone.
At the same time, Zhang Guozhong also thought about it, at this moment, Qin Ge wiped his face with his sleeve, and there was a moment of mud on his clothes. Seeing this scene, Zhang Guozhong's head snapped with an idea.
"There it is!" Zhang Guozhong took off his clothes and cut a 30-centimeter-square cloth on his back. "Senior brother, do you have cinnabar and a pen?"
"Hey! Attaboy! Old Liu Tou also understood at a glance that Zhang Guozhong wanted him to copy the "seal" of the stone wall on the right side.
Lao Liu finished copying the "Yi Seal" after three strokes and five divisions, Zhang Guozhong carefully picked it up, held the dragon scales in his hand, bit the tip of his tongue, and pasted the cloth on the inscription on the left wall. After about two minutes, the talisman on the back of the butt did not smoke.
"Seems to work! You're fast! After Lao Liu Tou and Qin Ge passed through the "Yanwen District", Zhang Guozhong also slowly withdrew into the stone corridor with a cloth.
Lao Liu had half a rope wrapped around his waist, Qin Ge tied the remaining half of the rope around his waist to prevent Lao Liu from being trapped, and walked about a few dozen meters so carefully, and suddenly a huge seated Buddha appeared in front of him, and there was no other way.
"This is it!" Old Liu Tou first took out the compass, looked at it and saw that there was nothing wrong, and then began to concentrate on pondering this sitting Buddha. I saw that the Buddha statue is about 8 meters high, it seems to be carved out of the mountain, and I carefully shined it with a flashlight, and there is no crack in the whole body, not like there is a secret door.
"Master Qin, how much explosives do you still have?" Old Liu Tou wanted to blow up this Buddha statue altogether, maybe the entrance to the treasure room was under the Buddha statue.
"Wait..."Zhang Guozhong seemed to remember something, and took out the copied map from his arms and pondered it himself, "Mr. Qin..., this seems to be... Treasure Export ......"
"What did you say?" Qin Ge couldn't believe his ears.
"You see, there are two lines here, one is connected to the Buddha statue, and the other is connected to the nine town platforms..."
"I said that there are no ambushes along the way..."Old Liu was depressed for a while, "I think this Shi Jingjiao is not so cheap to let us in..."
Qin Ge stared at the map carefully and didn't say a word. At this moment, Zhang Guozhong climbed up to the seated Buddha, and also wanted to find out what flaws there were. Facts have proved that the ancient people's mechanism construction technology has not yet reached the precision of modern industry, and in an extremely inconspicuous place behind the seated Buddha, Zhang Guozhong found a crack two fingers wide.
"Mr. Qin! Over here! Zhang Guozhong called, "Is this crack enough to insert a detonator...?" ”
Hearing the shout, Qin Ge hurriedly stepped up, took out a detonator and gestured at it, and it was neat. Qin Ge smiled, "Zhang Zhangjiao, there is really yours!" ”
There was a loud bang, the last three detonators were used up, the three of them stepped forward, a large crack was blown out of the back of the sitting Buddha, a living person got into it without any problem, behind the crack is a dark secret passage, with a flashlight to shine in, the pillar of light disappeared in the vast darkness, with no end in sight.
"I'll go first!" Zhang Guozhong took the lead, untied Qin Ge's rope and wrapped it around his waist, pulled out the dragon scales, and was the first to drill into the crack.
"Get down!" Zhang Guozhong signaled, as if there was no danger inside, the three of them went down to the secret passage, carefully used a flashlight to find the four walls, except for the traces of artificial repair, there were no charms or carvings.
Rubbing the darkness, the three of them slowly walked inside, and soon, the front and back of the secret passage became vast darkness, and the place where they came in was no longer visible.
"Guozhong, you said that since it's an exit, there shouldn't be any organs, right?" Old Liu Tou hoped that Zhang Guozhong could give a positive answer and be courageous, but before he finished his sentence, he saw Zhang Guozhong wave his hand, "Stop!" "I saw that the ground suddenly became a square brick road by the stone road, about six or seven meters of appearance, each square brick is engraved with the words of the ten heavenly stems and the five elements of yin and yang, after this square brick town, it seems to be a small archway vaguely.
"Damn, whose chastity archway is here?" Zhang Guozhong said, "Senior brother, what kind of array do you think is on this ground?" ”
Lao Liu knelt on the ground, used a chopping iron to remove the gaps in the bricks, and pried it a little, and the bricks seemed to be alive. "Guozhong... It's not a fucking array, it's a cryptographic machine! ”
"Password?" Zhang Guozhong was depressed for a while, if he wanted to say that he was still good at exorcizing ghosts and suppressing evil spirits, how could he pop up a password again...?
"You must go in the order set by the agency, and if you take a wrong step, our brother may have to explain today." Old Liu Tou stood up, looked at Qin Ge, and said, "Withdraw brother..."
Qin Ge didn't care about Lao Liu's words, "Zhang Zhangjiao, in your opinion, what kind of password should this be?" ”
"I don't know!" Zhang Guozhong thought for a while, "There are five elements in the heavenly stem, which should be related to the five elements of the heavenly stem... It's hard to determine..."(The so-called Tiangan Wuhe, that is, "Jiahexane Synthesis of Soil, Ethyl Heptane Synthesis of Gold, Propylene Synthesis of Water, Ding Non Synthesis of Wood, Pentodecyl Synthesis of Fire")
Qin Ge turned around and wiped his sweat again, "I'll try...!" ”
"Are you crazy!?" Lao Liu Tou pointed at Qin Ge's brain, "It doesn't matter if you want to die, don't pull me and Guozhong!" I'll tell you, the ghost is pretty good, maybe it will be a knife pit and arrow array, and you won't be able to fall the whole corpse! Angrily, he grabbed Zhang Guozhong's arm, "Guozhong!" Come back with me! ”
Zhang Guozhong was not mentally prepared to be dragged at all, and was dragged crooked by Lao Liutou, at this time, Qin Ge picked up the pig-killing knife, turned on the flashlight, and really walked into the brick road. It turns out that this Qin Ge also knows the five combinations of the heavenly stems, but there are five kinds of five combinations as the name suggests, as far as this slate array is concerned, the correct answer is only one of them, even if he is a senior master of cracking the mechanism, he will have to be * Meng if he doesn't know the answer. If this is really a way out, then this Tiangan Wuhe should go in reverse, Qin Ge was a little surprised: the treasure cave is filled with gold and silver, and gold is born of water...... With this rudimentary reasoning, Qin Ge stepped on the word "water" with one foot, and then closed his eyes...
It was too late for Zhang Guozhong to pull it, Lao Liu Tou looked back and saw that the cold sweat immediately came down, and Qin Ge had already stepped on the word "water" with one foot.
Three minutes passed, and the three of them each had their own posture to meet the enemy, but there seemed to be no movement, and Qin Ge didn't look like he was going to rush the body. Meng is right for the first piece, the second and third pieces are easy to say, one step to the word "Xin", the next step is on the word "C", and soon to the other side of the brick road.
"Huh?" Old Liu Tou snorted and sneered, "It's really a goddamn fool who has a stupid blessing, let this old boy be right..."
"Don't do it first..."Zhang Guozhong's words were already late, Lao Liu Tou had already stepped on the word "water" with one foot, this step didn't matter, I saw that the brick of the word "water" suddenly sank down more than three inches, and the old Liu Tou almost shook his head, and then only heard a loud bang in the direction they came in, Zhang Guozhong hurriedly turned around, walked forward quickly to watch, and saw a thousand catties of boulder seal the road out. It seems that the password of this Tiangan Wuhe is not as simple as Qin Gemeng's time, every time a person passes, it seems that the correct password will change, maybe this time it is "Bingxin Synthesis Water", and next time it will become "Ding Ren Synthesis Wood", which seems to have some kind of order.
"Mr. Qin! Do you still have any explosives? Zhang Guozhong ran back and shouted at Qin Ge out of breath. Qin Ge shook his head.
"Fuck, you... You... You... It's all you...! Old Liu pointed at Qin Ge, and he was angry.
"You did it yourself." Qin Ge shrugged.
"You're an old man..."Old Liu Tou was just about to have a seizure, and suddenly thought that something was wrong, yes, he took the initiative to come over..."Damn, I didn't look at the imperial calendar when I went out today!" What a ghost! ”
"Old what? "Qin Ge is coming.
Although the jack stone had fallen, Zhang Guozhong was still scared once, I don't know if it was right, or there was no other mechanism, and he didn't trigger anything else when he walked over.
The three of them came to the bottom of the torii and found that behind the archway was a row of downward stone steps, not very steep, but bottomless.
Lao Liu Tou shone a flashlight on the archway, "Damn, Master Qin, it's not me who hit you, someone did come before us, look!" ”
