Chapter 51: The Monument of Sacrifice
I said to everyone, "Let's go to the depths of the Earth Immortal Tomb first, and see an opportunity on the way." As he spoke, he swept the light of the spotlight, wanting to see the scale and pattern of the Earth Immortal Tomb, and then pay attention to it.
I saw that the tomb road behind the Lingxing Gate is all built of Ming bricks, the upper side is the arc-shaped "coupon top", there are two types of monuments in the coffin mountain, one belongs to the witch and evil culture period, the other belongs to the building in the immortal village at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Lingxing Hall is the underground palace built in the late Ming Dynasty, the scale is far less than the magnificent and huge tomb of the Wuyang King, and people can touch the zenith above as soon as they raise their hands in the narrow tomb road.
On the walls on both sides of the tomb road, there is a row of candlesticks with dried lamps, and there are several pieces of pottery scattered in the corner of the wall behind the tomb door.
I was about to call people to the depths of the ancient tomb, but I saw Sun Jiuye standing in front of the tomb wall, pulling out the lampstand with his hands, his behavior was very strange, my heart immediately sank, this Sun Laojiu endured humiliation and heavy burdens all his life, and his scheming was unfathomable, he was by no means a good master, he pulled out the lamp from the tomb wall, naturally he didn't want to learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds, did he want to touch the organ to wipe everyone out?
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but get angry, and I stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar and asked, "What demon moth did you come up with?" The fat man said behind him: "This old boy must be trying to take advantage of our unpreparedness and secretly turn the mechanism to transfer the Ming Weapon, and quickly say where are the Ming Weapons hidden in the village?" ”
Shirley Yang pressed my hand down and asked him, "What do you want to do, Professor?" Sun Jiuye said with an anxious face: "The lamps in the tomb are all plaster left after the volatilization of the yang sui, this thing is the same as black dog blood, geranium and other things, they are all unclean things, and they are wiped on the cracks of the door, saying that they can't block the corpse immortals." As he spoke, he pulled out the black ointment from the lamp and wiped it off at the Lingxing Gate of the Earth Immortal Tomb.
The younger sister said strangely: "Professor Jiuye, this is untouchable, I heard that if a man touches a geranium, or a woman touches the blood of a black dog, she has to jump into the brazier to get rid of the bad luck." ”
Sun Jiuye shouted: "The fire burns the eyebrows, I can't take care of that much, you guys quickly help me!" ”
I don't have the superstitious thoughts of this girl in the mountains, and I will be skeptical of Sun Jiuye's words, although I have also heard that the sunflower is a woman's menstruation, and the black dog's blood is the same thing that breaks the demon law, but I never knew that the rotten oil left by the yang sui could be used for evil.
Inverted bucket touching gold has always been "respecting ghosts and gods and staying away", no one can say anything about the netherworld, and it is not strange to hit ghosts in ghost places, but I have never heard of someone "robbing tombs and meeting immortals", can these rotten stinky mud really work? With the lessons I had learned before, I had to pay more attention to him.
At this time, I suddenly gave birth to a murderous machine, I wanted to slaughter Professor Sun, the tomb of the earth immortal is full of danger, this person is full of witchcraft, it is too dangerous to always take him with him, judging from my experience, what Sun Jiuye confessed before, should be somewhat credible, but as for him saying that he was dead before entering the ancient tomb, and at this time he said that the residual oil in the lamp can prevent the corpse fairy from entering the ancient tomb, these facts are difficult to understand, I can't guess what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd, if it may threaten the lives of his companions, I will not be soft on him.
But I immediately suppressed this idea again, after all, the head is not a leek, the leek can continue to grow after cutting a stubble, the head falls off but can never grow back, Sun Jiuye has not lived an easy life in this life, I can't decide the life and death of others just by my own thoughts, what is needed most at this time is reason and calmness, and I think "Sun Jiuye is also from a family, and I have learned some of the true skills of my ancestors by oral transmission, maybe I am a frog at the bottom of the well, which is rare and strange."
Professor Sun didn't know that at this moment, after a fierce ideological struggle in my mind, I was just anxious to urge everyone to help, Shirley Yang and my sister both pulled out the Emei thorn, scraped the rotten oil from the lamp embedded in the wall, and smeared it on the tomb door of the Lingxing Temple.
Sun Jiuye was so busy with his work, seeing that the tomb door was almost sealed, and the tomb bricks were engraved with array charms, so he didn't have to worry about them coming in through the wall, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and scraped some more rotten oil like dry soil, and put it in a kettle to prepare to deal with Feng Shigu, he saw that the fat man and I were always standing by, so he said dissatisfiedly: "Do you two still don't trust me?" This kind of technique is recorded in the "Record of Viewing Mountains and Excavations", so I don't believe you can see it for yourself. ”
I saw that there was no movement outside the tomb gate, so I was slightly convinced, but I said: "Trust is like a fortune, but Sun Jiuye, you have already overdrawn with me, and you still owe a lot of debt." ”
Sun Jiuye snorted coldly: "Although I dragged you into this troubled water, do you dare to say that you don't have any selfish thoughts when you touch Captain Jin?" ”
His words really stopped me, at least the fat man and I in addition to looking for Dan to save people, but also did have the idea of fighting the rare Ming Weapon in the Dixian Village, I didn't want to be entangled in this matter, there was no point in making any excuses, so he said to him: "Now everyone is a grasshopper tied to a rope, it's useless to talk more, what is the festival between us, it's not too late to break it after cleaning up the Dixian Fengshi Gu." Professor Sun nodded: "Even if you know too much, you don't suspect people, don't use suspicious people, all my secrets have already been revealed, it's not right for you to believe me, what the Earth Immortal Feng Shi Gu did is unpredictable, but his fight can be doubly vigilant." ”
I know that being said, how can we be on guard as we are weak? The coffin mountain immortal tomb is really tricky, the nine deaths and terrified tomb armor that wraps the mountain layer by layer, tens of thousands of coffin worms, and the "corpse immortal" that flickering in the jade cave, any of them is enough to make people anxious, and it is difficult for everyone to even protect themselves at the moment, as for threatening to "clean up the earth immortal seal Gu", I am afraid it is just our wishful thinking.
But the current situation, is against the current, there is no retreat, all kinds of internal and external factors, have forced us to go to the deepest part of the Lingxing Palace, and there is almost no respite on the way, everyone had to forcibly suppress the inner hesitation, through the narrow and low tomb road, at the end is a round arched ear door, inside is the natural jade cave deep in the belly of Pangu Vein Mountain, the humidity is very strong, there is a faint smell of blood, there is a very wide and long ancient fir fossil steps, Bai Lian towers behind the door, looking like a "ladder to heaven", Although you can't see the hall above in the dark, just looking at the scale of the long steps in front of you, you can also know that it must be extraordinary.
I said to everyone, look at this formation, the highest part of the stone staircase is probably the "Lingxing Palace", prepare all the guys in advance, but no one should act rashly, and they will all obey my orders. After that, he took out the ancient mirror of Guiru from the carrying bag, put a cross loop, and tied the bronze mirror to his chest as a "heart goggle", and the remaining can of fire oil was also opened and sealed in the bag.
The fat man has a bead and a sapper shovel, and there is also a trapped rope temporarily used as a mountaineering rope, and the other three people also copied the equipment in their hands, pulling their feet up the ladder, in the beam of the spotlight, you can see that the texture of the ancient cedar is like jade, crystal and bright, the texture is abnormal, and it is caught by the light, like a cold moon shooting at the eyes, and the silver wave is rolling.
The fat man was amazed, and asked us: "We have not seen much over the years, and we have entered many tombs and mausoleums, but I didn't expect to know what it means to be eye-opening here, how many catties and taels can an old landlord head in Feng Shigu have?" Can you build such a magnificent and magnificent Lingxing Treasure Palace? Just looking at the steps, you can chisel off a random piece and probably replace it with a color TV. ”
I was also amazed, and said to the fat man: "The fossil of the sword fir is also in the Kunlun Mountains, but I have only seen the bark of the palm size at the earliest, but the scale of the Lingxing Gate is not large, and it is similar to a land temple, and the tombs of ordinary princes and nobles in the Ming Dynasty are almost the same, why is the inner hall so magnificent?" ”
Shirley Yang said: "The surface of these ancient fossils is wedged with many ancient seals of star fish, which may be the remains of the period of the Wuyang King, not made by the Guanshan Taibao. ”
At this time, Sun Jiuye also found the ancient symbols on the stone steps, stopped and looked at a few lines, seemed to see something mysterious, nodded again and again, and climbed up another step to see the ancient seal on the surface of another stone step.
I asked him what the ghost charm meant. Could it be that the dragon bone book can't be written? Sun Jiuye said: "You think about the Zhou Tian hexagram all day long, but it is the end of the book, the ancient text is far deeper than the secret of the hexagram, our civilization history can be passed down from generation to generation, is not it all based on these words created by the ancestors?" Whether you preach the scriptures and preach, or rule the country and level the world, what does not need it? In the past, there were always leaders who accused me of making no sense in studying paleographies. ”
I'm so impatient to listen to it, and I don't look at what time it is, and I still talk about these old Taoisms? was about to urge him to hurry into the palace to rob the tomb, but Sun Jiuye said, don't worry, the traces of stars and fish on these ancient fir fossils are very unusual, they are indeed ancient relics of the period of the Wuyang King, and probably the true face of the King of Wuling is recorded in it.
Sun Jiuye said that the stone steps made of ancient fir fossils should have been there a long time ago, looking at the content recorded in the ancient seal, it seems to be buried in the coffin mountain Pangu divine vein of the "sacrificial tablet", the so-called "black sheep king", and "moving the mountain Wuling King", including the black sheep to open the mountain and lead the river, are the ancient legends that have been passed down in the folk in later generations, can not be believed, in fact, the true identity of the headless king, should be a generation of witches in the witch culture, the land of Bashu is deeply influenced by the Wuchu culture, and it is self-contained, without the name of a king, The Great Witch is equivalent to the lord of a country in charge of military and political power, and the Kaiming clan of the King of Shu is his descendant.
The jade cave in the Pangu corpse vein is the birthplace of the culture of "witch evil, astrology, funeral", etc., where "the mountain shape is like a corpse, the dark spring is like blood", it is a unique feng shui treasure vein, but it is a pity that the veins in the coffin mountain have died as early as the Wuling King period, leaving only the hanging coffin and jade bi full of mountains and valleys, as well as the thousand-year-old relics such as the memorial tablet and the funeral hall in the jade cave.
Due to the huge scale of the ancient fir fossil pile, the ancient seal of the star fish is innumerable, Professor Sun can not identify them one by one, only looked at a very small part, plus what he saw and heard a little bit of it, and got this information, it may be that the Guanshan Taibao Feng Shi Gu exhausted his efforts to build the Yin and Yang two houses of Dixian Village, just to revive this divine vein, and the monuments in the Pangu Vein Jade Cave were also rebuilt by him into a reborn "Lingxing Palace". Sun Jiuye asserted that if he collected more clues, he might be able to find out the secret of the ancient immortal of Feng Shi, thinking that he found that in the secret text of the mountain sacrifice on the stele, it was repeatedly mentioned that there were "spiritual things" in the Pangu vein that appeared in the netherworld, and it was likely that it was the "corpse immortal" that Feng Shigu had discovered at the beginning.
But our light source is limited, it can't last too long, and the ancient tomb is not a place to stroll leisurely, so we have to look for it slowly, so we have to ignore the dazzling ancient seal inscriptions, and go to the end of the long steps to find the coffin of the earth immortal.
At the end of the "ladder of heaven" piled up by jade cedar, it is not the underworld hall of the eaves fighting palace, but the jade vein is naturally born on four walls, shaped like a city, like a big palace, there is a palace gate between the walls, inside is a group of burial chambers composed of gray-brown Lingxing rock rocks, the scale should be similar to the two houses of Yin and Yang in Dixian Village.
Similar to the house of the Lingxing rock pillar group, is a natural wonder that exists in the "coffin mountain" underground, its situation is undulating, jagged and scattered, like a collapsed and disordered city dwelling, blocked by the jade city wall, isolated from the outside world, only a doorway to connect the "sacrifice tablet", perhaps the name of the Lingxing Hall comes from this.
The underground palace of the Lingxing Palace, which is in the chalcedony rock formation in the belly of the corpse-shaped mountain, is a huge jade cave wrapped in the Pangu vein, as if there is a jade box hidden in the hollowed out human body. This kind of Lingxing rock landform is mostly seen in the deep mountains and valleys, some like the basalt on the island, Zhuzi Mountain in ** County, Jiangsu, China is very similar to it, perhaps the coffin gorge has experienced great changes in the vicissitudes of the sea hundreds of millions of years ago, and there will be such a strange and spectacular rock formation in the belly of the mountain.
But as far as I know, the underground Lingxing rock layer can be formed by sea erosion, and it is more likely to be born through the erosion of feng shui and earth qi, and there are two qi of yin and yang in this heaven and earth, which are transformed into five elements from chaos, and the qi of the five elements is "formed in the sky and formed on the ground".
