Chapter 19: Feathering into an Immortal
Chapter 19: Feathering into an Immortal
"What are you two muttering? Can you speak human words, now that everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, you can't share it with me? "Lao Hei wondered what the two of us meant when we said about the glass shadow wall, could it be that the glass shadow wall where the golden dragon head was located had any other meaning?
"Lan Shan said this glass shadow wall, I just remembered. www.biquge.info It stands to reason that our current position is in front of the dumb courtyard, so if there is a glazed shadow wall in this position, it means that we have not yet reached the underground palace in our position, and there will generally be a dark hole in the north direction of the glazed shadow wall, where it can lead directly to the location of the tomb. I said excitedly.
"So there's hope we can get out?" Lao Hei was also very excited when he heard my words.
I nodded, I didn't expect that God would not kill me, and at this juncture, there would still be a glimmer of life. Just when Lan Shan and I were happy, I saw Lao Hei suddenly walking towards the coffin that breathed fire before.
"What are you going to do? Be careful! I reminded.
"It's okay, don't worry! I see that the gas inside has run out, but I want to see if I am sleeping in it, trying to harm your grandfather and me. The old black huffed and pushed the lid of the coffin open.
Originally, I wanted to say that even someone inside was burned to ashes. But I also wanted to see if there was anything left inside, so I poked my head inside and looked inside. I saw that the bottles and cans and jade and other things inside had been burned, and Lao Hei kept sighing in his heart after seeing the scene. I did, though, see something unexpected.
The coffin was not completely burned, and there were still a lot of bones left inside, but strangely enough, the bones inside were not human, and the size and shape of the coffin gave the impression that they were the bones of an animal like a poultry or a bird. I looked at it and suddenly patted my head.
"I see, this burial chamber is not for people at all." It dawned on me.
"It's not for people to sleep on, for whom? Do you have water in your head? Lao Hei asked suspiciously.
"This is for the gods! In ancient times, there was a saying called 'Feather Flying Immortal', have you ever heard of it? Taoists believe that this kind of thing exists, and when people cultivate, when their cultivation reaches a certain bottleneck, the soul will leave the physical body, fly to heaven, and become an immortal. However, in the eyes of ordinary people, this kind of thing can only be believed, and it cannot be taken seriously at all, but many nobles still believe it and hope that they can reach the Western Elysium after their death, so they will solemnly burn some birds in other places in the mausoleum, and then place the ashes of bones and feathers inside. I hope that the gods above can accept their offerings, and when they die, they can also be taken away by the gods and become immortals. I explained.
"Rub! These evil capitalism, when they die, still want to harm so many things, it's a pity that there are so many treasures, how can they bury a brute, it's a pity, it's a pity! Lao Hei said with emotion.
However, although we regret it, Lao Hei is still not angry, and cut off two of the night pearls on the coffin, which is called spiritual loss fees. I didn't stop him, because the most important thing for us now is unity, and I don't want to get entangled in this kind of thing and make everyone unhappy.
After I, Lan Shan and Lao Hei sorted out their mood, Lao Hei helped me to the north of the glazed shadow wall according to my inference, and began to turn over the green bricks on the ground continuously, about three floors or so, and I could see that there was a dark hole below, which proved that my inference was not wrong.
However, Lao Hei was still experienced, and he was not happy that he had found the tomb, but threw down a stone first, and heard the sound of the stone falling to the ground a few seconds later. Lao Hei turned back to my door and said, "Don't be happy, I roughly deduced that this position is about four or five meters above the ground of the tomb. I'm okay, you intellectuals, if you jump, you will be half disabled, and you will buy train tickets and movie tickets at half price in the future, or you will burp and hang up. I think we need something else, or maybe it's better to have a rope. ”
After Lan Shan and I heard Lao Hei's speculation, we hurriedly looked through the backpack to see if there was anything like rope, but I didn't expect that Lan Shan's backpack really had a hemp rope in it, but Lao Hei said that it was not possible to have a rope. However, after Lao Hei took the rope, he walked to the previous dark hole and took the previous coffin lid. It's constantly agitating on the side, and I don't know what I'm doing.
After a while, I saw Lao Hei standing up and holding something similar to a wooden stick in his hand, with many grooves on it.
"This thing is called the 'Centipede Ladder', and if someone hadn't taught me before, this craft wouldn't have been learned by ordinary people. In fact, it is also very simple to do, just find a long tree trunk in advance, but there is no here, so I replaced this coffin board, and cut a lot of grooves at equal distances on it, which looks like a centipede. Put the centipede ladder into the thief hole, it is very convenient for people to go down here, and even if you fall, I have another preparation, that is, to tie you with a rope, and if you fall down, I will say that my skills are not good. "Lao Hei is very proud of his own work.
However, for the sake of my safety and that of Lan Shan, Lao Hei first asked the two of us to go down, and he held the rope on it. I first tied the rope tightly around Lan Shan's waist, Lao Hei first put down the finished centipede ladder, and Lan Shan walked down the groove with a flashlight in his hand.
"Be careful, watch your step!" I reminded.
Lan Shan nodded at me, and then walked down, about a minute or so, only to hear Lan Shan's voice, "Come down!" It's safe here! ”
After a minute passed, when I arrived at the tomb at the same time as Lao Hei, I suddenly found that there was no one here, and there was no Lan Shan at all.
At this time, I began to panic, Lan Shan is my best friend and the love of my life, if she has any longs and shortcomings, I will never forgive myself in my life. At this time, I began to panic in my heart, and kept calling Lan Shan's name from the position of the tomb, but there was no response.
"Professor Li, don't shout, come and have a look!" Lao Hei suddenly said at this time.
I heard the sound and ran over, and I knew that the old black must have found something. I walked over and saw Lao Hei holding a damaged flashlight in his hand, "This should be what Lan Shan used, and you see, in this kind of tomb that has not been used for a long time, it has already been full of dust, and it can be clearly seen that Lan Shan should have run along the tomb, and there is only a pair of footprints, which proves that no one else has appeared here at all, if there is, it can only be 'Black Swallow'." However, this is very unlikely. ”
I know that there is an unwritten rule among their unfortunate thieves that if you see something unclean in the tomb, you can't call it by name, because if you say it by the name of the sun, it will feel disrespectful and will lead to death. Therefore, it will be expressed by other names, such as the 'black swallow' in the old black mouth now, which actually means 'ghost'.
However, I was afraid that Lao Hei, the crow's mouth, would be effective, so I hurriedly followed the direction of the footprints to find it, because there were footprints here, so we wouldn't worry about any mechanism or something like that, and I ran for a long time, about nearly twenty meters long, and Lao Hei and I actually walked to the end of the cemetery, and there was no road in front of us, and Lan Shan's footprints also disappeared in this position.
