Chapter 43: Turning things upside down
The giant rock of Bottle Mountain, which fell into the Yiren Ancestral Cave, was stuck in the cave without going up or down, and the huge rock had already been damaged by the collision, and the ancient tomb inside was also unrecognizable. The entrance of the tomb exposed by the tomb on the top of the mountain happens to point to the night sky like a well.
Partridge Whistle is a 100-year-old wizard who moves mountains, he has been in the industry since he entered the industry, haunted in the deserted graves for more than ten years, and stolen the ancient tombs and mounds, not a thousand, but also eight hundred, but this tomb is reversed, but it is still the first time in his life.
And the tomb fell from a high altitude, the internal building has long been unrecognizable, the original tomb door and tomb road have been blocked by rocks, but the heavy tomb wall has broken a few big holes, everything can not be judged by previous experience, I can't help but add twelve points of caution, pick up the horse lantern, and jump off the tomb first.
The partridge whistle felt that the masonry at the foot was loose, and the four walls were trembling slightly, knowing that this huge rock was hanging in the hole in the ground, and the bottom was not falling, and if the surrounding trees and rocks could not support the weight, it would continue to fall.
But the partridge whistle is also a master of the arts, and he does not take these hardships to heart, raises his hand to take the red girl who follows closely, and whispers to her: "The huge rock of Bottle Mountain is hanging in the air, the wind blows and moves, and when you are in the tomb, you must be cautious." ”
The red girl nodded in agreement, and the two of them tiptoed with bated breath, carefully climbing on the broken and collapsed tomb wall, like wading into an ice abyss. In the process of moving down step by step, I never dared to use half a bit of force, and Rao was like this, but I still touched those broken stones and bricks and fell down.
At this time, most of the pins in the tomb had been destroyed, and none of them could have a seizure, and the two turned a few sloping stone beams, and went down through the cracks in the broken bricks, and the door of the tomb was under their feet.
In the belly of the bottle mountain, there are city gates, urn cities, Yongdao, Dan Palace, apse, built in the form of steps, His Royal Highness Danguan Wuliang is the secret cave of alchemy and Tibetan medicine, the group of thieves who move the mountain and unload the mountain initially saw the whole picture of this Dan Palace, the weather is magnificent and magnificent, it is not different from the ancient palace inner garden, it is full of thinking that the tomb of the Yuan General must be hidden in the layers of palaces, but it ignores that there is a relatively independent hall hidden in the top of the mountain.
At this time, the partridge whistle stepped on the door of the temple on the top of the mountain, and felt that this situation was extremely strange, the reference objects were all tilted and tilted, and the original ground and roof were turned in front of and behind him, as if the heavens and the earth were turned upside down, and his own center of gravity was also unstable by this illusion.
He hurriedly hugged the large stone tablet that fell sideways in front of the temple gate, collected his mind, and gradually adapted to this strange environment. Within reach, the stele is full of concave and convex words, the partridge whistle and the red girl glanced at it under the horse lamp, and saw that the words and sentences of the inscription are ancient, it seems that the ancient emperor prayed for the content of the immortal medicine, it is estimated that the main hall on the top of the mountain that was used as a tomb should have been used to collect the secret hall of the warlock refining into the golden pill, but it is expected that the Dan palace has never been refined into the golden pill, because there has never been a previous dynasty, there is an emperor who lived more than 100 years old by taking the pill.
Look at the moving door has already flown off, the beams and pillars inside the rafters fell into a mess, sealing the door, but the top of the hall was half uncovered, the black rumbling inside seemed to be very deep, faintly heard the cry of the ape below, it seems that the old ape was trapped under and could not get out, wanted to call the same kind to come to the rescue, but did not want the monkeys in the mountain to be frightened by the partridge whistle, far into the depths of the jungle and never dared to come out.
Partridge Whistle thought to himself that since the old monkey was not dead, there would be no miasma in the tomb of the ancestral cave, and it would be okay to go down, he and the red girl were eager to save people, regardless of the danger that the palace might collapse and be buried alive at any time, even if they climbed the beams and hugged the pillars at the big hole in the top of the temple.
The burial chamber is divided into two entrances, the front hall is small, but the apse is extremely wide, the walls behind the hall have been broken, and the purple gold coffin is thrown out from there. Most of the Ming utensils in the hall have become fragments, the jade tile porcelain stone is mixed in one place, only the gables on both sides are relatively complete, the ancient colors on the wall are colorful, all are murals, under the dim light of the horse lamp, but the characters in the painting are lifelike, and most of them are the march of the military uniform to end the helmet and armor.
The partridge whistle and the red girl don't care about the murals in this tomb, no matter how proud the general was during his lifetime, in the end it is inevitable to die, "Er Cao's body and life are destroyed, and the rivers and rivers are not wasted", the people who rob the tomb and fight upside down, who will pay attention to the deeds of the ancient corpse, but the partridge whistle swept under the light, and suddenly saw a bead in the mural that resembled a human eye, and actually saw the partridge whistle blood surging.
The people who moved the mountain to excavate the ancient tomb, in fact, are looking for a bead, the bead has an extraordinary origin, I don't know whether it is the condensation of the ancient living soul in the Dan, or the creation of heaven and earth, its shape and color are no different from the human eye, it is said that it is hidden in the mouth of the ancient corpse in the tomb somewhere in the world, called the dust bead, alias the phoenix gall.
A thousand years are easy to pass, but ancient curses are hard to dispel. The people who moved the mountain road have robbed the tomb for generations, and I don't know how many lives have been lost for this, and they have never even seen the shadow of the pearl, but the people have withered, and the incense may be cut off in less than a hundred years. The partridge whistle made a great wish, and he wanted to find this thing in his hand with broken bones, but he didn't expect to see it in this upside-down ancient tomb, how could he not be shocked.
In order to see more realistically, the partridge whistle hung its legs on a coiled dragon pillar to fix its figure. He is as light as a swallow, hanging the pillar of the hall horizontally and carrying a lantern to watch, the original ancient mural in the hall, is to record the deeds of the ancient corpse in the purple gold coffin, its name is difficult to verify from the mural, can only be speculated that this person was born in the Western Regions, has many military exploits, after the Mongol extermination of the Western Xia, learned that there is a strange treasure hidden in the palace of the Western Xia, this person was ordered to steal the tomb of the Xixia king, to find the dust beads in it, dug a number of mausoleums, but never found.
Later, I finally learned that the phoenix gall was hidden in the Tongtian Buddha Temple in Heishui City in Western Xia, but the monuments of Heishui City had long been buried by yellow sand, and the sand and grass were vast and unmarked, and it was difficult to find traces of temples not far from the city.
The gables that followed were detached and broken, and were no longer recognizable. The partridge whistle almost wanted to spurt blood in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to grow wings, and immediately flew to the Black Water City in Western Xia to dig out the ancient temple buried in the desert. Thinking that the ancestors of Zagrama, who believed in the only omniscient and all-powerful God, appeared, the intermittent clues of this thousand years finally appeared in front of his eyes.
I also regretted that my younger brothers and sisters didn't know the news when they were dying, and they robbed the tomb with the blind Chen who was a thief in Bottle Mountain, and was born and died several times, and I couldn't count how many times I went in and out of the ghost gate, and I did all the tricks on the tip of the knife, and almost even put my life here, but I can get this clue in the ancient tomb, and it is really in vain to endure these hardships and dangers.
Partridge Whistle's thoughts were tumbling in his heart, a moment of happiness, a moment of ecstasy, a moment of sadness, a moment of loss, completely forgetting where he was, and even more worried about whether the matter of the Western Xia Blackwater City was true or false.
The red girl was about to go down through the tomb to the bottom of the cave, but when she saw the partridge whistle hanging in the air, staring at the gable as if she had lost her mind, she could not help but be startled, and hurriedly shook his arm.
The partridge whistle was gently pushed by her, and then he came back to his senses, although he was in a tidal mood, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time, but he had made up his mind, and now he had to make a break in the matter of robbing the tomb in Bottle Mountain, and he would fulfill the righteousness of the alliance with the group of thieves in the mountains, and then he would go to the desert alone, and he would not be willing to give up if he did not dig out the Tongtian Buddha Temple in Heishui City.
The red girl said curiously: "You gritted your teeth and your face was full of murderous anger just now, why did you want to be ruthless to the mural?" ”
Partridge Whistle knew that the Red Maiden wanted her to know the truth, and she would go with her to Blackwater City regardless of her safety. He is used to being alone, and how many people in the world today can compare their skills and courage to the partridge whistle? Although it was the kindness of others to help, it was just adding a burden out of thin air, so I had to hide it from the red girl and not mention it, but said: "I was dying in the Danjing before. Neidan, who swallowed the six-winged centipede uncleanly, just felt a headache in a trance, thinking that the power of the pill medicine had not dissipated, and now it was no longer tight, the life and death of the seedling were uncertain, you and I should go to find him. ”
The red girl said: "That's right, I think that although the guide Miao Zi is timid, he is also a well-behaved person, not like a person who dies violently, and may be able to be saved at this moment." As she spoke, she had already scrambled through the broken wall at the back of the chamber and climbed to the bottom of the cave with ease.
Partridge Whistle saw that she was in a hurry, lest she make a mistake in front of her, and hurried to follow. At the bottom of the tomb wall, there are criss-crossing ancient tree roots, piled up with many coarse woods that are rare in the primeval forest, the wood is horizontal and vertical, and there are many natural tree holes on each side, the diameter is the size of a vegetable basket, and the depth can be several feet, just enough to hold a corpse.
From the point of view of the tomb robber expert of the partridge whistle, this ancient Yizu cave is a veritable "box tomb", a tomb with many corpses, no coffin only a tomb hole, each corpse is relatively isolated, the tomb is dense and dense, like a cabinet arranged in a medicine box in a Chinese medicine shop.
In ancient times, the Yi people lived in the cave, so they were also called the cave people, although they were also respectful and orderly, there was a cave master, and there were cave slaves below, but the living conditions were primitive and simple, and the form of the common tomb was mostly buried with "box tomb". The corpse will wear a commonly used ornament before his death, without gold and jade vessels, there has never been a custom of thick burial, and the tomb of the cliff cave in the Yangtze River basin is actually similar to it.
It wasn't until later that there was a Tusi set up by the imperial court that there was gradually a style of coffin and thick burial, so there was such a sentence in the tomb robbery line, "erect burial pits, box tombs, move mountains and unload mountains and go around". Because the box tombs are all places where caves are turned into bones, there is nothing to find to move mountains and mountains, and even if you see it, you will not dig it.
Partridge Whistle and the Red Maiden went to the cave, and the lantern was raised and the gun was raised, and the eyes were full of wormhole-like tombs, in which the corpses were still dry and bone, and the cobwebs and mushrooms were all over it, and the gloomy stench was disgusting. The trees that fell in were piled up, and it was impossible to see where the purple coffins and seedlings had fallen, and the wailing ape was also silent.
He was about to open his mouth to call his name, when he suddenly heard someone in the corner of the cave moaning in a low voice, and the shouting was very weak. The partridge whistle held up the lamp to shine in that corner, and faintly saw a figure, but judging from the shape and voice, it was not a guide seedling.
The red girl couldn't help but be a little worried at this time, clasped three flying knives in her hand, and dared to ask, "Who is over there?" However, the figure on the other side leaned against the wall, trembling all over, but still refused to answer.
The partridge whistle was very bold, but did not believe in evil, carried a gun and walked a few steps, held up the lamp, and could not help but gasp, and saw a thin old man squatting in front of a row of graves, looking at the partridge whistle and the red girl who came over with a surprised face. The old man was full of white hair, his cheeks were deflated, and his thief's eyes were turning, like an old monkey with a blue ape.
