Chapter 41: The Code of Life and Death
How could Wang Xiaoni die suddenly? For a while, I couldn't accept it.
Thinking about it, if it is a ghost, the following person is not Wang Xiaoni, or the real bridesmaid Wang Xiaoni, Wang Xiaoni, who had a fish and water relationship with me, is not dead, so thinking about it, I am a little happy in my heart.
"Little evil, do you understand?" Uncle Wang asked me softly. It makes me a little uncomfortable, in my impression, Uncle Wang is a vigorous and resolute person, always speaking in a firm tone, a spit and a nail, in addition to being a queen to himself, when has he been so gentle with others.
After speaking, he turned to look at Mrs. Mingyue and Lao Huang again.
"Both of them are masters of the Tao, and they have helped our village many times over the years - this is the last time, if you have anything you want to ask, please ask!" Uncle Wang's tone of voice seemed to have changed, and it sounded a little gentlemanly.
Master Mingyue repeated the question just now: "Is this a ghost?" β
Uncle Wang nodded.
Lao Huang asked again: "What's the matter with the ghosts down here, after a person dies, shouldn't he enter the three realms of reincarnation within seven seven or forty-nine days?" β
"Three reincarnations? For all the people in this village, there is no such thing as the so-called three reincarnations, you look at the following - but they are all villagers of Gufun Village! β
I don't need him to remind me, I have already seen several familiar faces, all of them are neighbors who have died before, and suddenly I saw so many dead neighbors, including Gao Guofeng, and the same feeling in my heart is difficult to describe in words.
I feel a little hairy in my heart!
Mrs. Mingyue's face changed suddenly, she took out an ink-colored compass from her arms, took it in her right hand and looked at it, pinched her fingers with her left hand and counted it, and there were words in her mouth.
Half a minute later, she suddenly opened her eyes: "Xiao Wang, who did this, do you know?" β
Uncle Wang nodded: "Many, many years ago, this valley and the ancient burial village were cursed for thousands of years, and all the people in the village could not live without this land, even if they died, their souls would be trapped here and queue up, waiting for a new life to be born." β
"A thousand-year curse? Who is so powerful? Lao Huang couldn't believe his ears.
"It is the owner of this tombβa man who has once understood life and death."
"Do you know who it is?"
Uncle Wang smiled faintly: "This person did not leave a name in history, maybe he was deliberately erased!" You certainly don't know his name, but you must have heard him when I mention his master and disciples. β
"Who?"
Then I will talk about his five most famous disciples: "Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Su Qin, Huiyi, Shang Ying." β
Before Mrs. Mingyue and Lao Huang could react, a few of us couldn't help but exclaim. Anyone who has studied history knows that these five people are all famous figures in history.
Master Mingyue and Lao Huang were also shocked: "What you said about his master is Guiguzi?" β
Uncle Wang nodded: "Actually, Guiguzi also has a big apprentice, who is the most powerful of all the apprentices. All I know is that after Guiguzi turned 60 years old, he called the big apprentice to the secret room alone, and the two talked for two hours, after which the big apprentice disappeared, and even the rumors and books about him disappeared in the next ten years. β
"Could it be that this tomb belongs to the great apprentice of Guiguzi?"
Uncle Wang nodded: "This person's name is Zhang Qiling, when we were building this ancient tomb, we accidentally discovered these secrets of Zhang Qiling, and we almost knew why he disappeared." β
What a smart person Master Mingyue is, I saw her tremble: "Could it be that the old Guiguzi seniors let him hide something?" β
Uncle Wang nodded again: "After Guiguzi was forty years old, he began to concentrate on the study of metaphysics and witchcraft, in fact, his Gu art level has also reached its peak, but the world doesn't know it. At the age of fifty-five, he made a major breakthrough in his research, to be exact, he unlocked a set of codes. β
"Password?" I didn't understand and asked casually.
"This is a set of codes about human life and death, and when unlocked, you can control the lifespan of people and other creatures."
"Can you live forever?" The two policemen asked almost in unison.
Uncle Wang nodded slightly.
At this moment, a series of information fragments were instantly strung together.
I understand why in the Yin Cave before, Lao Huang said that the first queen of Qin was looking for something for half his life, he must have gotten some information and was looking for this ancient tomb; I also understand why, every ten years, there are always some strange people in the village, and their target is supposed to be in this ancient tomb.
Lao Huang thought for a moment and shook his head: "There is one thing, I still can't figure it out, if according to the original intention of the old Guiguzi seniors, he doesn't want the world to know this secret, wouldn't it be more direct to simply destroy it himself?" β
This time Uncle Wang didn't nod, but shook his head: "Don't forget, Guiguzi is still the originator of the divination industry, and he may have calculated that future generations still need this 'secret', so he asked Zhang Qiling to hide it in seclusion." β
"That's not right! If even Zhang Qiling's name was erased, how would the world know about these things? β
Uncle Wang smiled bitterly twice: "Guiguzi has almost understood everything in the world, but he has never figured out a single thing. β
"What?"
"People's hearts!"
Uncle Wang continued: "Although his original intention was good, after Zhang Qiling lived in seclusion with a secret for a few years, he couldn't help but be curious, opened the booklet, and became addicted to it as soon as he saw it......"
"Was that strange cult that was wiped out by Qin Shi Huang founded by him?" Master Mingyue asked suddenly.
Uncle Wang nodded again: "Zhang Qiling still obeyed the master's order, and did not use this immortality technique on people, but used a lot of animals to do experiments, and as a result, in the two hundred years before Qin Shi Huang, there were many strange animals in the world, in fact, many legends about monsters now started at this time!" β
"You're talking about the Nine Dragons?" Lao Huang asked.
"In addition to these nine, it also includes some strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"Later?"
Later, Zhang Qiling also realized the horror of this immortal code, which will break the basic natural laws of birth, old age, sickness and death. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the most basic laws in this world, and they are also the theoretical basis for the existence of all things in reality. β
Sighing, Uncle Wang continued: "Realizing this, he exerted all his strength to destroy the strange creatures he created, and at the same time, he himself ran out of energy, used his last energy to build this ancient tomb, and cursed this land for a thousand years. β
"In addition to Xiaoyi and your daughter, everyone in Laomiao Village also has problems, right?" Mingyue Master asked coldly.
