Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Devil
"Guanshan Taibao" excavated ancient tombs in various places, and filled the treasures and strange weapons in the "Dixian Village", these incomplete murals should be the decoration of an ancient tomb in the Tang Dynasty, but although the three of us have read countless antiquities, it is difficult to judge which "mountain tomb" these two murals are from. Full/Ben/Small/Say/Net/
Walking along the slightly inclined tomb road, the incomplete murals of the Tang Dynasty continue to appear, all of them are plump and numb noblewomen and the ghost-like little old man, I don't know what means to use, in the damp and seepage environment everywhere, the mural colors are still bright as new, I am anxious to find Sun Jiuye, I don't have time to pay attention to the evil paintings in the tomb, just care about wading forward, but secretly mentioned the heart of vigilance, dare not have the slightest slack.
As far as I know, the tomb road at the bottom of the mausoleum of the "Black Sheep King" is an extremely ancient form of tomb structure, and the "golden well" inside the mausoleum of later generations is detached from this, in ancient feng shui, the four words of "situation rationalization" are still secondary, and the ancient people paid the most attention to the "good and evil" of the soil intuitively.
Because whether or not to backfill the tomb soil, a large part of the soil in the tomb site will still be dug up, and the soil at the "hole eye" is extremely valuable, so a number of shafts will be dug at the bottom of the larger tombs, and a part of the original soil will be filled into the well, which can keep the interior of the ancient tomb alive, and can be used as a "drainage channel" to invade the underground lake water of the bottom tomb road, and nine times out of ten it has infiltrated into the shafts of those backfill the original soil, because the groundwater is soaked all year round, the tomb bricks under the feet have been loose and broken, and the terrain can not be seen through the stagnant water, every step has to be probed three times, which is extremely difficult, and the speed of forward is also very slow.
In order not to slip on the underwater rocks, I had to walk against the wall of the tomb, which was cold and slippery, and I couldn't breathe. After walking a few steps, I suddenly heard a sound in the wall. I felt strange, put my ear to the wall and listened, and faintly heard someone shouting in the depths of the tomb, and the sound was transmitted along the tomb wall, although it was not real, but it was definitely a human voice, and it was a woman's voice.
Of the five of us in the expedition, only Mi Mei'er and Shirley Yang were women, so my first reaction was that Mi Mei'er was at the far end of the cemetery. Hurriedly said to Shirley Yang and the fat man: "Listen, it seems to be a young sister......
The fat man leaned on the tomb wall and listened, nodded and said: "That's right, but the distance is far enough, I can't hear anything clearly, I must be shouting for help or something like this in this situation, let's hurry up and get her, delay for a while, in this kind of black goo Longdong place, scare can also scare my sister to death." ”
I said that my sister's girl is very bold, she has been passed on in the honeycomb mountain, and she has also participated in militia training, so she is not expected to be scared to death, and she will shout for help means that she is nothing serious, but I didn't hear Sun Jiuye's voice, and I don't know if the old man is dead or alive now.
As I spoke, I was about to grope my way forward again, but Shirley Young grabbed me and said, "No...... Listen to it again. My sister is Chuanyin, but the sound from the depths of the tomb is not like it, it seems to be ...... A middle-aged woman, I can't judge what she's shouting, but it's definitely not a sister. ”
I heard Shirley Yang's ear far sharper than me and the fat man, but how could there be a third woman in the tomb except for her and her sister? And is she a "middle-aged woman"? I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, if it wasn't for Shirley Yang's errand, would it be the "person" in the ancient tomb of Dixian Village? In that case...... It's hard to say whether it's a "human" or a "ghost", how can there be living people in an ancient tomb where no one has been in for hundreds of years?
I listened to it on the tomb wall again, the woman's voice in the depths of the tomb was intermittent, as if there was nothing, the voice seemed ethereal and empty, although I couldn't really hear it, but I listened carefully, it was really not the accent of my sister, if I believe that someone has survived in the tomb for hundreds of years, it is better to let me believe that it is a "ghost", but whether she is a ghost or a ghost, she must finally go to see it with her own eyes, so she put her heart horizontally, and she mustered up the courage to wade through the water and go inside.
As soon as I took a step in the water, I was grabbed from the back by someone, and at this time Shirley Yang and the fat man were in front of me, and my attention was completely focused on the front of the tomb.
I exclaimed, and when I looked back with a sapper shovel, I saw my sister standing behind me with a wet body, and she said to me panting, "What are you doing?" I shouted in the back and cut my throat, and I didn't wait for me. ”
I wondered, "Girl, where did you come from?" Why did you run behind us? Didn't you make the shouting in front of the grave? ”
Shirley Yang saw that my sister and I asked each other thoughtlessly, but they didn't know the point, so she asked her not to worry, and made her clear, was there any injury on her body?
My sister settled down, talking about the passage, just lying on the coffin lid down the river, to the tomb of the ancient tomb in the groundwater poured wildly, I don't know where the lacquer coffin will be taken, she wanted to jump into the water to escape, but I don't know the depth of the water in the tomb, I am afraid of drowning in the water, and when the coffin is washed into the bottom of the tomb by the water, she only felt that it was dark in front of her, let go of her hands and fell into the water, and then was taken into the side room by the lake in a drowsy way, when she woke up, she saw the light outside the tomb door flickering, So he hurried out to find the source of the light.
At that time, the fat man and I were passing through the tomb with Tang Dynasty murals, neglecting to search the half-collapsed side room, and went straight to the direction of the sewage surge, and the younger sister chased after her, but in this inclined tomb, the sound could only be transmitted upward, and the movement above could not be heard at all in the low drop, so she had to follow all the way, until we stopped to catch up.
I saw that my sister was fine, but it was still difficult to rest assured, one was that Sun Jiuye's whereabouts were unknown, and the other was the cry of the woman in the depths of the tomb, and it was really another "person", at first I speculated that it would be because of the special structure of the tomb, which produced some kind of distorted sound echo, making people have the illusion that the voice of the younger sister was misheard, but the reality immediately denied this possibility, because the hoarse shouts in the tomb continued to come.
My mind spun around, and a thought flashed: "A woman in the depths of the graveyard? Could it be the noble lady in the murals of the Tang Dynasty? "I think this matter is unbelievable, and it is useless to think too much, if we go late, Professor Sun may really be killed by the female ghost in the Tang tomb, the matter has come to this point, and we can't afford to have concerns about our actions. I asked Shirley Yang to follow me and the fat man with his younger sister, and the four of them held their breath, and under the faint beam of light, they waded to the end of the tomb, as if they felt some kind of alarm, and the screams of the woman in the ancient tomb suddenly fell silent.
This is a stone tomb in the bucket room, there is a shaft to backfill the original soil under the tomb bricks in front of the room, although the terrain is the lowest in the whole ancient tomb, but the groundwater flows here, all seep into the underground rock crevices in front of the tomb door, there is no water in the tomb at all, two vermilion lacquer coffins depicting Zhong Kui eating ghosts, one east and one west are stranded in the tomb.
I saw a faint light flickering on the lacquered coffin near the door of the tomb, Sun Jiuye was still lying on the coffin lid, still holding the iron chain on the coffin board with both hands, and the lighting spotlight on his mountaineering helmet had been damaged, flickering like ghost water.
I saw that Sun Jiuye's body was motionless, and I was shocked that it was not good, Jiuye may have returned to his position, everyone hurriedly stepped forward, and was about to check his pulse to see if he still had any signs of life.
Before I could ask him, Sun Jiuye said, "You guys...... Did you just hear that? Is there any strange sound in this tomb? ”
I knew that Professor Sun might have heard that "strange" voice, which is why he asked this question, but instead of saying it, he asked him, "What voice are you talking about?" ”
Sun Jiuye said in a trance: "It seems to be ...... Ghost sound, that's right...... I'm sure it's a ghost sound! I was lying on the coffin and was washed all the way into this tomb at the end of the ancient tomb, my head was dizzy, and I don't know if I passed out, but I heard it clearly, someone in this tomb was singing ghost music......"
Shirley Yang interjected and asked, "Professor, you often say that people in the world shouldn't mention strange powers, why do you suddenly say that the voice you heard just now is...... Ghost sounds? ”
Professor Sun said, "What? Don't you know? Ghost sound was a kind of singing voice in the Tang Dynasty. In the silent night without accompaniment, sung by the woman's clear voice, the tune is extremely weird and ethereal, imitating the crying and lamenting of the dead soul, now the ghost sound China has been completely lost, the Tang Dynasty once flowed into Japan, Japan has been preserved to this day, I went to Japan the year before last to listen to the ghost music performance, so I heard it as soon as I heard it. ”
Only then did I understand what Professor Sun meant by "ghost sound". But regardless of whether the "ghost sound" is an ancient music that imitates the lamentation of ghosts, at least it should not appear in this ancient tomb, so isn't it really a veritable "ghost sound"?
Along the way, I saw the terrifying murals of the Tang Dynasty and the "ghost sound" that had been lost for thousands of years, as well as the empty ancient tomb of the "Black Sheep King", and the missing "Dixian Village", only the first half of which was really "Guanshan Finger Mystery", countless questions were tangled in one place, and there was no clue at all, so that people did not know where to start, and wanted to steal the "Danding Book of Heaven" hidden in the tomb. But it is not easy to say, we must try to find a new "breakthrough point" to solve these mysteries.
Thinking of this, the fat man and I waited around to find out the source of the "ghost sound". But the burial chamber at the end of the tomb is as empty as the entire ancient tomb. There are only some shambled masonry and brickware, otherwise there are two vermilion lacquer coffins.
The coffin beneath Professor Sun was still sealed, but another lacquered coffin hit the tomb wall, and a large opening opened at the front of the coffin and buckled to the ground. From the crack of the coffin, a dry and rigid female corpse arm was pulled out, and there were jade bracelets and finger rings and other ornaments on the hand, which were flickered by the beam of the "wolf's eye flashlight", which looked jeweled and eye-catching.
The fat man's eyes straightened, and he swallowed his saliva and said to me: "Old Hu and Lao Hu, there is a way - the deserted village is left behind, and the ghost of Wanmu Xiao is singing." Could it be that the zongzi in the coffin is singing? Let's light a candle on the spot and open the coffin, and pull it out of the coffin to see it clearly, so as not to be suspicious and suspicious, and the more you think about it, the more scared you become.
I shook my head and said: "This time I entered the coffin gorge and poured the bucket, I came to Danding and Zhou Tian hexagram, it is important to do the right thing, it is best not to cause branches, no matter what ghost sound and bird sound it is, it has nothing to do with us, if there is anything uneasy, just set fire to these two lacquer coffins." ”
I didn't do anything, I thought that the ethereal and ethereal "ghost sound" was bad or bad, it was better to try to get rid of this hidden danger in advance, and I wanted to go over and set fire to it at the moment, but when I got closer, I suddenly saw some handwriting on the bottom of the coffin, and I hurriedly came to look at it carefully.
Shirley Yang saw that I was acting differently, so he also followed, stared for a moment, and read out the inscription hidden at the bottom of the coffin word by word: "The girl is ominous......" Professor Sun leaned on the coffin and listened clearly, and exclaimed: "Is it the content behind the Guanshan Finger?" He was about to ask something more, but Shirley Young made a silent gesture to the crowd: "Shh...... There is a sound in the lacquered coffin! ”
At the same time as Shirley Yang spoke, I also heard something different in the coffin, and the crying "ghost sound" reappeared, and she was busy dragging her back a step, and the sound was like a "ghost", which made people's hearts tremble, but how could there be a sound in the coffin?
Sun Jiuye was shocked by the phenomenon in front of him that violated the common sense of physics, and the cosmology formed over the years was subverted at this moment, and he jumped off the lacquered coffin with a rolling belt, hid behind me and said, "In the coffin...... Be...... What is it? ”
I was indeed a little flustered at first, and then my blood and qi collided, thinking that there was a "person" in the coffin to speak, and it was nothing more than three possibilities, the first was that it was really haunted; The second possibility is that the person in the coffin is not dead, but has been alive all the time; The third is that there is a "tape recorder" in the coffin, Hu Ye, what strange things have I never seen in my life? I have never seen these three things, but today I will see and know, and I will also teach my ears and ears to be curious, and I can have more "conversations" with my peers in the future, and I can't show panic at this time, so as not to pass on this emotion to my sister and Professor Sun, so I told them: "I think there is probably an old tape recorder in the coffin that is pressed, and you listen to its babbling movements...... Most of the broadcasts are the scenes of the little widow crying graves. ”
