Chapter 62: Eight Ghost Detention Bottles (1)
After the door of the vault retreated into the wall, Guo Jiefang took a flashlight and shone it inside. He found the vault empty and dusty, with neither gold, silver, jewelry, nor banknotes and maps, just an empty bottle, lying alone on the ground in the center of the vault!
Li Yuanchao stabbed Guo Jiefang and said, "Old Guo, why didn't that voice exist just now?" No...... It's really ...... in there! ”。
Huang Yaju said: "It's really strange, how come there is nothing in such a big vault? ”。
Li Yuanchao said regretfully: "Before I opened it, I thought it was full of gold and silver jewelry!" It's good, not to mention the fortress map, there is not even a human hair in it, this is really called a dog biting a pig blister, and there is a joy in the air! ”。
Guo Jiefang tore off the cobwebs at the door and cautiously walked into the vault. Due to the lack of air circulation in the vault all year round, there was an extremely pungent smell of mildew, and the three of them covered their mouths and noses with their hands, and the fish rushed in, first walked around the vault, and did not find anything strange on the wall, so the three of them stared at the small bottle buried in the dust!
Li Yuanchao asked Guo Jiefang in a low voice: "Old Guo, where did you say that voice came from just now?" Could it have something to do with this bottle on the ground? ”。
Huang Yaju's face changed slightly, and she said, "How can this bottle make a sound?" You...... Don't talk nonsense! ”。
Guo Jiefang squatted down and blew off the dust on the bottle with his mouth. Beneath the dust, a beautifully cast ancient bronze square bottle was revealed! This square bottle is green and rusty to the bone, crystal clear, Ying only holds it, and under the light of the flashlight, it emits a brilliant and strange green light......!
When the three of them saw that this square bottle was so luster, they couldn't help but surround it, and they all felt that this square bottle was a treasure, but where the treasure was, the three of them couldn't say! Li Yuanchao said, no wonder there is nothing in this vault, it turns out that there is such a big treasure!
The three of them were so excited that they all reached out to get the bottle, but Li Yuanchao took the lead in getting it. Li Yuanchao was holding the square bottle, just like Sun Monkey holding a longevity peach, he turned it over and looked at it upside down, and he forgot where he was for a while!
Guo Jiefang asked Li Yuanchao: "Glasses, do you know what it is?" When you pick it up, you know it's blind, and be careful if you break the baby! ”。
Li Yuanchao was unconvinced and said, "Do you know the baby Guo Jiefang?" We ordinary people can't see anything? Phew! To tell you the truth, although my Li Yuanchao's eyes are a little worse, this baby hits me in front of my eyes, I don't need to look at it, just by smelling this nose, I can distinguish a male and female ......! ”。
Huang Yaju said curiously: "Glasses, then tell me whether this bottle is male or female?" ”。
Li Yuanchao rolled his eyes and said nonsense: "Why do you ask so clearly about a girl's family?" Don't you see my old man watching......? ”。
Li Yuanchao frowned and looked at it for a while, and Guo Jiefang teased him again: "Now that I have seen it, you can tell me, is this bronze square bottle male or female?" ”。
Li Yuanchao smiled and said, "Lao Guo, aren't you innocent about smashing my field?" If only I could know if this bottle is male or female, I'll still be here with you? ”。
Guo Jiefang smiled: "Since you don't know, then what are you bluffing?" Hurry up and bring it to me and let me see ......? ”。
Li Yuanchao then held the bottle and placed it under Guo Jiefang's flashlight pillar, and the three of them gathered their heads together and looked at the bottle together......!
The pattern on the bottle is complicated and weird, and the three of them looked at it for a long time under the flashlight before they saw a rough idea! At the bottom of the bottle, there was a circle of blazing flames, and in the middle were four monsters with identical fox faces and snake bodies, and the rim of the bottle was surrounded by eight ghosts with different expressions...... The entire bronze bottle looked terrifying and weird under the light of the flashlight......!
When Guo Jiefang saw the statue of the fox-faced snake body in the middle of the bottle, he was shocked in his heart, and said in his heart: "How can there be this strange statue on this bottle?" Could it have anything to do with that Khitan tomb? ”。 Before he could come back to his senses, Li Yuanchao suddenly reached out and lifted the lid of the bronze bottle......!
Guo Jiefang's heart was agitated, and he secretly screamed that it was not good! At the same time, I saw a puff of black smoke suddenly gushing out of the bronze bottle...... The black smoke freed up the bottle, "woo" sounded, circled around the heads of the three people three times, and then "whew" and flew out of the door!
The three of them were shocked, and Li Yuan said "Mom", and threw the bottle and cap to the ground. The three of them rushed out of the door and saw the black smoke fly out of the house! The three of them were all frightened by this sudden change, and Li Yuanchao asked Guo Jiefang: "Old Guo, did you see that black smoke just now?" That...... What the hell is that? ”。
Guo Jiefang "chuckled" in his heart, and suddenly remembered a past incident that his fourth master had told him, so he quickly pulled up the two of them and said, "It's not good, something is going to happen...... Can't stay here! ”。 Li Yuanchao didn't know what to do, but seeing that Guo Jiefang's face was not good, and knowing that things were not good, the three of them hurriedly ran out of the vault, covered the secret door, and blocked it with the filing cabinet, so they let out a long breath!
Li Yuanchao then asked Guo Jiefang, what was that black smoke just now, and why were you so afraid? Guo Jiefang said that he saw that the bottle actually emitted black smoke, so he immediately remembered a kind of bottle that his fourth master had mentioned to him, and that kind of bottle was called the "Eight Ghost Detention Bottle"! Li Yuanchao asked, what is the "Eight Ghost Detention Bottle"? Guo Jiefang then told them about a strange and strange thing that his fourth master personally experienced!
It turned out that Guo Jiefang's fourth master did business before liberation, and this sand turning bucket was a code word on the rivers and lakes, to put it bluntly, he was a thief who dug up soil and robbed tombs. When his fourth master was young, his family was very poor, a large family, he ate the last meal but did not have the next meal, and the fourth master went out to dig sand with his uncle in the same village when he was fourteen or fifteen years old. In the business of digging sand, if you are lucky, you can make a fortune, and if you are unlucky, you may even lose your own life. But how to say it? In those days, it was better to be able to eat a full bite of food than to starve to death!
In those years, Hunan had frequent natural disasters, survived floods, and then droughts, and after the drought was over, it caught up with the locust plagues, and after the locust plagues, it was thousands of miles of red land, and starvation was everywhere...... Those who survive accumulate bones for cooking, and they are easy to eat. The fourth master's village was also affected, and nine out of ten of the dead in the village! In order to survive, there is a trend of stealing and digging ancient tombs everywhere! The fourth master's family relied on the fourth master's unique skill of turning over the sand and turning the bucket, and they survived the year of the catastrophe safely......!
The fourth master has been wandering on the rivers and lakes for a long time, and gradually became famous, because he was born dry and short, and everyone called him "Black Fourth".
One year, a friend on the road found the fourth master and told him that there was a big deal and asked him to help, and the fourth master was young and vigorous at the time, and he agreed without much thought.
The fourth master packed his luggage and followed the people all the way to the foot of the Qinling Mountains. This Qinling Mountains stretches from east to west, majestic and majestic, and there have been many tombs since ancient times! When the fourth master walked here, he roughly understood what was going on, it turned out that half a month ago, a group of people dug up a big tomb in Qinling, and four people went down one after another, and none of them came up! The people who stayed outside were also scared and didn't dare to go down! But they were not willing to get nothing, so they sold the news to the antique dealer "Li Dazui". After this "Li Dazui" got the news, he immediately remembered my fourth master, so he sent someone to ask the fourth master to ......!
Although the fourth master was beating the drum in his heart, Li Dazui paid a generous honorarium, so the fourth master couldn't bear to refuse, and in the line of turning the sand and upside down, he encountered this kind of big tomb, which they called "pouring water"! If you want to find something out of this kind of tomb, you must ask a master! My fourth master is a leader in this industry, he has a unique skill that others can't match, and the jargon is called "two don't meet".
In the past, most of the people who ate the sand and sand bucket were destitute and ignorant peasants, and they were more afraid of ghosts and gods than literate people! In order not to alarm the tomb owner in the coffin, the torch must be extinguished first, and then the coffin must be opened in the dark, so that the tomb owner can not see the face of the tomb robber clearly, so as not to provoke the ghosts in the ancient tomb!
The fourth master was born with a pair of extremely dexterous slender fingers, and he could touch the top of the dead corpse's head with his hand in the dark, all the way to the sole of his shoe, and touch the dead corpse's dead body in his hand like a grate to remove lice, and then cover the coffin lid and crawl out of the tomb.
When the fourth master came out this time, he thought that it would be the same as before, and he would be able to take out the treasure without going down to the tomb without much trouble. But this time, he met a strange thing that he will never forget in his life!
This time they came a total of four people, in addition to Li Dazui, the fourth master, there are two other people, is a pair of uncles and nephews, the old one is called "Sai Jingang", he is born with divine power, good at punching holes through the wall, originally a stonemason, "Sai Jingang" nephew is half the size, shy by nature, does not like to talk, this child also has the same unique job, will "divide the muscles and bones", no matter how small the hole, there is no one he can't get into! The kid was called "Monkey Boy", and everyone called him the same.
The four of them met at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, so they went all the way over the mountains and mountains, walked in the mountains for two days, and finally found the big tomb that had poured water behind a broken temple. The entrance to the tomb is a robbery hole, which goes straight down to the top of the coffin in the main burial chamber.
According to the rules, Li Dazui untied a bird cage from his waist, and there was a lark with bright fur in the cage. Li Dazui tied the bird cage to the rope and put the lark down along the thief hole, this lark is the most sensitive to the poisonous gas in the air, so the people in the sand row often use it to detect the air in the tomb! Li Dazui held the rope and lowered it for a long time before he felt that the rope was at the end, he waited for a while, and then lifted the bird cage up! When everyone saw the larks in the bird cage jumping around, they knew that there was no poisonous gas in the burial chamber.
Li Dazui'er nodded at the three of them and said, "Everyone, water has been poured into this tomb, big guys be careful!" ”。 The three of them are all old rivers and lakes, needless to say, the "monkey boy" tied the rope to his body and hung it down first.
Sai Jingang and the fourth master also followed closely to the tomb, and Li Dazuier stayed outside alone to watch the wind! After the fourth master went down to the tomb, he lit a torch and looked inside, the tomb was a pile on the east and west, and the west was a pile of burial vessels, but he didn't find any trace of the four people who went down to the tomb in front of his head, and the fourth master was shocked, and said in his heart: "Even if those four people die in the tomb, there should always be a corpse?" How is this even gone? ”。
