At this moment, the sky is already bright, and there should be no danger, but to be on the safe side, I will stand guard and let everyone rest first.

When Da Zhuang learned of the power of the drum, he told me that if the ghost wolf came again, he would ignore everyone, so he struck it hard, shaking the dog to death, and then fell asleep on the ground.

The drum didn't beat again, but the earth really shook twice, and I felt as if the leylines were changing.

In the second half of the night, Xia Ti came over for me, I forced myself to explain a few words, cleaned up a place and fell asleep. When I woke up, I only felt that my bones were crispy, and I stretched my waist for a long time, and asked Hua Bo, who had woken up, to know that it was past noon, although I had only slept for less than two hours, but this was the most solid sleep I had in a few months.

I went over to look at Zhijing, and saw that his face was much better, his wound was black and red, and his breathing was even and smooth, and he was relieved immediately.

I asked Hua Bo how he knew that the drum could subdue the ghost wolf.

Hua Bo said that he didn't know at all, but just guessed, because he thought that since King Qiang Tuo could build his dormitory so close to the ghost wolf, there must be a way to deal with it, so he remembered the drum. The murderer of King Qiangtuo must have also found this treasure, probably thinking it was just an ordinary little broken drum, and he threw it away without paying attention to it.

I thought to myself that this was too risky, and if the ghost wolf was not afraid of the sound of the drum, and we ourselves were shaken to the ground, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At night, Zhijing had also woken up, and Hua Bo asked him how he was feeling and if he could walk. Zhijing nodded and said that he was fine, although the wound was still very painful, but as long as the black poison was solved, all that was left was some flesh wounds that hurt the muscles and bones.

So after discussion, everyone decided to return as soon as possible, firstly, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, the ghost wolf will come to attack at any time, and secondly, there is not much dry food and water left.

Only Da Zhuang was very disapproving, and played with the drum and said: "We have this treasure, and we are still afraid of that beast, why don't I go down and slaughter it, wouldn't it be clean." ”

I know Da Zhuang, this guy is a person with clear grievances, why don't I want to avenge the death of this brother, but if you think about it, you can't be emotional, and this is also what we sent to the door ourselves, we can't complain about others, the most important thing is that the atmosphere here has changed, "The ghost wolf and the ghost Awei should be a symbiotic relationship, and the ancestor of the Zhenling Temple, Elder Daren, did not hurt its life, I'm afraid this is also the reason, since the thing is obtained, don't compete with a beast." ”

Hua Bo also nodded and said: "All things in heaven and earth are born and restrain each other, and the ghost wolf is also a spiritual creature of heaven and earth, since we have found a way to restrain it, we don't need to hurt its life anymore." ”

Da Zhuang originally wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but when he saw me and Hua Bo say this, he reluctantly gave up. Before leaving, Da Zhuang asked everyone to cover their ears and retreat first, he plugged his ears and chewed a few slices of mint and camphor, and knocked the drum a few times down the mountain before relieving his hatred.

On the way back, we chose a place where the wind and water were up, gave Shunzi a well-dressed mound, and each of us offered some dry food.

"Flame mouth" is a hungry ghost in hell, because he was too stingy in life, so he swallowed as thin as a needle after being a ghost, could not eat in water, his body was thin and thin, and he was extremely miserable.

Shunzi has followed Uncle Zhang Jing for many years, making a living by striking iron, although he has no worries about food and clothing, it is not a good life, I hope he can be liberated as soon as possible after his death, and he will be happy from suffering. Stringing together everything that has happened these days, I seem to understand something, but at the same time there is a bigger mystery and confusion, maybe people can never understand everything, there is always confusion, and the only person who can grasp it is the person in front of him.

In fact, everyone understands these truths, but people are often persistent when encountering things, which is also the suffering of life.

When passing through the coffin array of Liuding Liujia, Hua Bo chose the most tattered coffin, pried open the coffin lid and looked, sure enough, it was a girl's corpse again, with red lips and jade face, fresh as life, hair was about to grow out of the coffin, and a small seedling more than a foot high grew on the top of his head.

Although I had been prepared, I couldn't help but be shocked: "This ghost Awei has not yet grown up, but it will come out of the coffin in a few hundred years!" ”

Hua Bo nodded, hesitated for a moment, and made another move that made everyone jaw-dropping, he took a little ghost Ah Wei and applied it to his chest and hands, then reached into the coffin to cut the pulse of the female corpse, and finally pinched Xia Ti's pulse again, before he breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his mouth: "It's okay, it's okay!" ”

Everyone was puzzled, and Da Zhuang asked, "I said, Master, what are you touching?" This female corpse is estimated to have been dead for hundreds of years, how can it still have a vein? You...... You, you don't want to take advantage of others, do you? ”

Hua Bo gave him a blank look and said, "We must burn all the coffins that are diagonally inserted into the ground here, otherwise it will become a great disaster after a long time." ”

Looking at the girl in the coffin, alive as life, thinking about Junzi, there are no bones left, for a moment, I can't seem to tell the difference between life and death.

Everything is already clear, the origin of this ancient country of Qiangtuo should be a tribe that existed in ancient times, their mission is as depicted in the murals in the palace, moving west to this place to plant ghosts for the ancient emperor Awei, with the change of the Central Plains Dynasty, the Qiangtuo tribe will be separated from the jurisdiction and become a country of its own, and since then it has been hidden here, and there is no contact with the Central Plains Dynasty.

It wasn't until the early years of our dynasty that Emperor Wu was bent on seeking the art of immortality, maybe he got the secret of the ancient emperor, so he sent Huo Quai, Wei Qing, Li Guang and other famous generals to conquer the Western Regions several times, and set up a capital in the Western Regions.

Judging from the canonization edict on the coffin of King Qiangtuo and the wine utensils scattered in the palace, the Han army found this place and canonized the king of Qiangtuo of the previous generation.

And Emperor Wu's ultimate goal should be to get the ghost Awei, we can imagine the situation at that time, Emperor Wu asked the king of Qiang to ask for the ghost Awei, but was refused, this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Han army did not dare to attack, so they came up with the most vicious trick.

Several Han envoys carried Emperor Wu's edict and rewarded the wine of King Qiangtuo, and the King of Qiang did not dare to tear his face with the Han Dynasty, so he set up a state banquet to welcome, the beauties sang and danced, the piano sang in unison, and when the feast reached its peak, the Han envoy secretly poisoned the wine vessel, and poisoned the Qiang Tuo monarchs and ministers who were immersed in extreme joy, and the murderers knew that if they wanted to destroy their country, the best way was to cut off their water source, and they found that the water source for the military and civilians to drink came from an underground water vein, which was the underground undercurrent that Da Zhuang fell into. The undercurrent is connected to the octagonal well of the king of Qiangtuo, and the king's drinking water is naturally upstream, so the Han envoy threw poison into the well, and the poisonous water went down the stream, and was drunk by the people of Qiangtuo, and the consequences can be imagined. Therefore, the black marks on the walls of the octagonal wells and the marks on the people's homes are all caused by poisonous water seeping into the stone walls and eroding.

Poor as soon as the water veins of this ancient country were broken, it was destined to tragedy, and the people who were not poisoned hastily buried the dead, knowing that they could not protect themselves, but on the way to escape, they were all killed by the Han army who had been ambushed in the ghost fire cemetery. As for the curse of the ghost mother and the story of the first beauty in the Western Regions, it was just that the Han army made it up in order to cover up their crimes, and they released the wind to spread the curse of the Qiangtuo country, the spread of the plague and other terrifying rumors, in order to make everyone dare not approach here, they also took the name of Ten Thousand Corpses Mountain.

It's a pity that although they killed all the people here, the murderer didn't find the ghost Awei, there is a providence in the dark, they searched all the places, and they never thought that the ghost Awei would grow at the bottom of the cliff, so this spiritual object was never obtained by the Han army, but they mastered the method of planting it.

Hua Bo has personally tasted the ghost Afoetida, and has an understanding of its medicinal properties, and then inferred from the experience of this period of time, this ghost Afoeta should be the most superb Yin Afoetida, and it must also grow in the treasure land of the extreme yin corpse, with the girl's body as the soil, but unlike the Yin Afoet, this medicine does not belong to the world.

The warlocks of the Han army obtained the cultivation method of ghost Awei, selected girls with excellent roots and bones, took specific precious herbs for a long time when they were young, and grew into a girl after a few years, so that the body became a medicine body because of taking a large number of medicinal materials, and when they became adults, they planted their seeds on the top of the girl's head, and sealed the girl alive in the coffin, these girls were full of anger, although there was no food or drink in the coffin, but with the herbs in the coffin, they could survive for several months, and finally died tragically, and her curses and resentments were also sealed in the coffin, And the grave group of the Liuding Liujia Formation, presumably buried must be a strong man to restrain the female corpse in the main coffin, but it is still unknown what the final result of such a hair will be.

And although this girl is dead, her medicine and resentment nourish the ghost Awei and make it grow, and this ghost Awei also nourishes the girl's corpse and makes it jade and incorruptible. This kind of mutual replenishment and dependence has never stopped for thousands of years, and even the pulse of the female corpse is still moving slightly, and the hair is continuing to grow.

However, the ghost Awei planted by King Qiangtuo has been thousands of years old, although it has only grown into a small tree half a person high, but the female corpse has already broken out of the coffin, and the Liuding Liujia Array will not work, and the reason why there is nothing to do is only to rely on the ghost fire beast and the ghost wolf.

This beast is a beast of extreme yin, fierce and abnormal, every month on the night of the full moon to feed on a leaf of this ghost Awei, in order to weaken the yin of the female corpse in the coffin, and the way to tame the ghost wolf is this drum, as the so-called all things in the world are born and restrain each other. Having said that, it is precisely this kind of mutual restraint that there are such strange things as ghosts and Awei in heaven and earth.
