Chapter 67: The Ghost Tomb
The fat man said: "We are not afraid of ghosts hitting the wall, and we are afraid of any mess, just say it, even if it is dead, we should be a ghost who understands, and the foolish ghost will not accept it from the Lord of Yama." ”
I said to the fat man, "I'm afraid you two won't understand, in fact, I'm just judging based on the phenomena we encountered, I must be like this, I said it to you two to see if it makes sense." ”
The fat man and the big golden tooth waited for me to tell me what I thought, but I didn't rush to say it, but asked the big golden tooth a question first: "Master Jin, in the small village next to Shepanpo, we saw an incomplete stone stele, as well as the palace maid murals seen in the underworld, and the magnificent underground palace in the front hall, all of which are really from the Tang Dynasty, we will never look away from this, right?" ”
The big gold tooth nodded and said: "That's right, it's absolutely all the things of the Tang Dynasty, the craftsmanship, the structure, and the characters and costumes on the murals. But that being said, it's ......"
I got confirmation from the big gold tooth, and before he finished speaking, he said: "But in this ancient tomb of the Tang Dynasty, the stone coffin of the Western Zhou Dynasty appeared, the tomb road painted with the rock paintings of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the outer wall of the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty appeared out of thin air in the place where half of the hole was stolen. ”
The big gold tooth and the fat man said in unison: "yes, isn't this a living hell? ”
I said, "Let's not believe in evil yet, maybe we've seen a ghost this time, but this ghost may be special." ”
The Great Golden Tooth said, "Special? Hu Ye, do you mean the ghost of this tomb owner? Was it from the Tang Dynasty or the Western Zhou Dynasty? ”
I waved my hand: "No, maybe I can't use the right words, but I really don't know how to describe it, and it's really not appropriate to say ghosts, because I've heard a lot of people say that this is not a superstitious theory, it belongs to a special physical phenomenon, and there are many experts and scholars who specialize in studying this phenomenon, and there is no proper term for the time being, I think maybe it is more appropriate to call it a ghost." ”
The fat man asked, "Aren't ghosts and ghosts the same thing?" Old Hu, whose ghost are you talking about? ”
I said to the fat man and the big gold tooth, "Whose ghost?" I think it is the ghost of a Western Zhou Dynasty tomb, not the kind of ghost that becomes a ghost after death, but the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty itself is a ghost, this is a ghost tomb that touches the legend in the gold line, and the ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty attached to this abandoned tomb in the Tang Dynasty. ”
The big golden tooth also understood a little, the more he thought about it, the more right he felt, nodded again and again, and the big golden tooth said: "There are ghost buildings, ghost ships, ghost towers, ghost cars, maybe what we encounter is really a ghost tomb." ”
But the more he listened, the more confused he became, so he asked me what I meant by what I said to the big golden tooth, and if I could say something that was easy to understand.
The big gold tooth said to the fat man: "I have been doing the antique business for so many years, I firmly believe in a truth, this exquisite thing, has gathered countless efforts of skilled craftsmen, over time, there is spirituality, or there is a soul, once this thing is destroyed, it no longer exists in the world, maybe its own soul is still there, just like some luxury cruise ships, obviously have been shipwrecked, buried at the bottom of the sea for many years, there can occasionally be crew members at sea to see this ship, it is still sailing on the sea, Maybe all the crew saw was the ghost of that ship. ”
The fat man said: "So that's the case, then it seems that I am still very prescient, when I first looked at the stone coffin, I said that maybe this object is more than a few years old, and it will be fine, you two are really, I said it so clearly at that time, you didn't react, I and you two stupid really have no temper." ”
The big gold tooth said: "Listen to Hu Ye mention this, I think there is really this possibility, before our family had a relative from Hunan to Beijing Fengtai to do business, in Fengtai lived in the Xinyuan guest house, at that time he opened the room number is 303, that day was too late, more than twelve o'clock in the evening, he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, he ran to the third floor in a daze, went up the stairs to see that it was 303, and saw that the door was not closed, and did not think much, pushed the door and went in, and saw that there was a cup of hot water on the table, picked it up and drank two sips, and fell asleep on the bed, The next morning, I was woken up and found myself sleeping on the stairs on the third floor. ”
The fat man asked, "Lao Jin, are you saying that your relative also met the Ghost Tower?" ”
The big gold tooth said: "Yes, the waiter in the guest house asked him why he slept on the stairs, he said what happened, at first he thought he was sleepwalking, and when he saw that the door of room 303 was locked, nothing was moved inside, and the cover was not opened, so he left in a daze, and then went to Fengtai, and lived in the Xinyuan Guest House, when chatting, I heard that the Xinyuan Guest House had been burned down, and then rebuilt as it was, except for the expansion of the scale, the rest have not changed, Even the house number is exactly the same, and there are so many times a year that the guests obviously enter the room and sleep outside in the morning, but there are no casualties and accidents, so it doesn't attract attention, and everyone never takes it seriously. I once heard this relative of mine talk about it, it was purely a conversation after dinner, I never paid much attention to it, and now it seems that we have also encountered this kind of ghost tomb. ”
The big golden tooth said to me again: "It's still Hu Ye who saw the opportunity quickly, you see that I was stunned, and now I just came back to my senses, and my head is a mess, even if it makes me want to break my head, one head can think of two heads, I can't think of these at all." ”
I said, "I'm ashamed, I was also in a hurry to think of this step, my head hurts now, I have thought about all the situations, I think we should have met the ghost tomb, otherwise how could there be two overlapping tombs." ”
Two dynasties and two generations have taken a fancy to a piece of feng shui treasure, of course, this situation also exists, especially this kind of hidden situation, which can really be described as a treasure vein, which is extremely difficult to find.
After figuring out this most critical point, the rest of the problems have been solved, Longling, a treasure cave hidden in the eye, is likely to be in the Western Zhou Dynasty, was favored by people, but at that time there was not as rich and specific feng shui theory as the Tang Dynasty, but the highest state of the unity of heaven and man is the ultimate goal pursued by human beings since the day they had human beings.
A certain royal family of the Western Zhou Dynasty, was buried here after death, with a human face stone coffin, the structure of the tomb is similar to what we saw, the periphery is built with a huge outer wall, the inside is divided into three layers, a large number of burial goods are placed in the bottom layer, in the case of the time, it should be mainly cattle, horses, animals and utensils, the middle layer is parked with the face of the tomb owner, in addition, there is no superfluous thing, even if there are a few important burial goods carried by the tomb owner, they should also be packed in the stone coffin with the body of the tomb owner, The third level is the entrance to the tunnel, and the stone steps we are on are located between the upper and middle levels.
The owner of the tomb, who was buried in a stone coffin with a human face, could have been laid to rest here for a thousand years, but sometime before the Tang Dynasty, for some reason that we have no way of knowing, perhaps due to war, perhaps because of tomb robbery, or even because of the political struggle at that time, the tomb was completely destroyed.
Later, in the Tang Dynasty, the feng shui master who was dwarfed by the royal family also took a fancy to this hidden treasure cave in the Longling Mountains, so he opened a mountain and built a mausoleum here for an important female member of the royal family.
However, when the mausoleum was halfway through, it was found that this hidden hole had been used a long, long time ago, and the royal mausoleum project was abandoned halfway, which was very unlucky.
Compared with these, what is more ominous is a cave and two tombs, even if the previous ancient tomb no longer exists, in this case, even if the feng shui master who chooses the pulse and points to the nine clans, it cannot be recovered, most of them are officials and feng shui masters who supervise the construction of the mausoleum, in order to avoid their own trouble, they collude with each other, fabricate some non-existent things to deceive the emperor, and let the emperor Lao'er pay money to rebuild a new mausoleum elsewhere.
We encountered these suddenly appeared human face stone coffins, tomb walls with petroglyphs, and the boulders that blocked the robbery cave, and the location where the candles were originally placed in the robbery cave was also replaced by a boulder, all of which were the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty that had long been destroyed, and the ghosts of the ancient tombs suddenly appeared.
The big golden tooth listened to my analysis and agreed very much, but there was one thing that could not be connected: "Since there is this ghost mound here that has been completely destroyed, why did the Tang Tomb be discovered when it was almost finished, and as soon as we entered the thief cave, this ghost mound suddenly appeared?" Isn't that a coincidence? ”
The big gold tooth is talking about a difficult point, this point does not make sense, our guess is not valid, even if we are unlucky, it is impossible to be so coincidental, usually there is not, or the "mound ghost" that comes in from time to time, but we come in with the front foot, and it comes out with the back foot.
It stands to reason that although the so-called "ghost mound" can be touched and seen, it is not an entity, but a certain force field that remains in the world, not all the time, and it is part of the echelon appearance, how much can appear in the end, whether the entire tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty is presented, or only half, or less, these are not known.
I said to the big gold tooth: "Here is the dragon head of the dragon vein, and it is the hidden eye, it can be said that it is unparalleled in the world, the Tibetan wind gathers qi, this Western Zhou Dynasty tomb multiplies the vitality, the qi travels in the ground, and because of the momentum of the earth, gathered in it, it is called the whole qi, the qi is the pure qi of the beginning of the Liuhe, and the one who is born in the heaven and earth is the source of all things, and this qi is one of the forms of the original pure qi." The ancient tomb was built in this kind of top treasure land, and it was dyed with aura, so after it was destroyed, although it had lost its shape, it was still allowed to be contained in the qi veins in the cave, which was not strange, and it was strange why this ghost tomb appeared at this time, in other words, it was not usually not, but we touched something, or did something special, so that it suddenly appeared. ”
The big golden tooth said to me: "Zhao, Hu Ye, from all the signs we have seen, after the destruction of the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there have been three groups of people here, two of which are the captains who touched the gold including us, although these two groups of people have been separated by decades, they have all encountered this ghost tomb, and they are all trapped in it, and there is also a group of people at the earliest, who must be those who built the Tang tomb, they are naturally a large team of people, and the mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty has been built to this extent, it is not an overnight effort, they are all about to finish repairing the tomb, Only then did they find out that there was a ghost mound here, why didn't they find it in the first place during the previous construction process? ”
I nodded and said, "Yes, no matter what order, I must have done some special act to lure the ghost mound out, but we didn't do anything, just climbed halfway through the thief hole, and the stone wall behind me suddenly appeared and blocked the road." ”
The big golden tooth thought hard: "This ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty must have been completely destroyed, not even a single brick and stone left, the people who built the Tang tomb thought that this was just a huge natural cave, which was not only the feng shui level, but also saved some trouble in digging the mountain, they must have discovered the ghost mound later, and the gold school guards who stole the hole in the fishbone temple, including the three of us, must have done the same thing to trigger the ghost mound, but what is this matter?" ”
I said to the big golden tooth: "Don't worry, since you already have a clue, I think as long as you find out the cause, it will be possible to make the ghost tomb disappear, the people who built the Tang Tomb and the thief hole in the fishbone temple may have thought of this after discovering the ghost tomb, so they can leave, let's all think about it." ”
The fat man said: "In my opinion, you can use the elimination method, what the ancient people can do, we can also do, these should be considered first, some modern things, the ancient people could not have them, so they can be eliminated, don't think about it." ”
I didn't expect the fat man to be so sensible: "Okay, little fatty, I thought you knew how to eat and drink with this straw bag, and you could even come up with a fucking elimination?" ”
The fat man smiled: "It's not all hungry, I think if people are hungry and anxious, their brains will be bright, anyway, when I eat, it is when his grandmother's brain is the worst." ”
The big gold tooth said: "You can also circle the area a little narrower, the people who repaired the Tang tomb found the ghost mound at the end of the project, and we were trapped as soon as we entered the robbery cave." ”
The fat man said: "At the level of the two of you, you are still touching the gold and fighting upside down, it is really a pig's brain, I will give you a reminder again, the ancients also made it, let's also make it, then what else can there be, is this not clear, candles." ”
"Candles?" I also thought about it, but it shouldn't be a candle, could it be that the ancient people were working in caves and didn't light lamps? Candles can be used more or less anytime, anywhere, right?
Although we do not know the specific circumstances of the construction of the mausoleum in the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible that the candles were used near the end of the project, and there should be other reasons. However, candles are more sensitive to us, is there a certain tradition in the Tang Dynasty that candles cannot be lit at the beginning when building large mausoleums? This is not at all in line with common sense, and there will be no such strange rules. If there was such a rule, it would have been recorded in my ancestral book.
Just when we thought about it and ruled it out the same, suddenly the two big white geese led by the fat man fought with each other, and the fat man scolded: "He***, what are you two flat-haired animals doing, and the old man will roast the two of you to eat after a while." The two geese quarreled fiercely, ignoring the fat man's threats.
The fat man looked interesting, smiled and said to me and the big golden tooth: "Old Hu and old gold, have you seen it, we have only seen cockfighting, this time it is back to a goose fight, it turns out that geese are so aggressive." ”
I saw two big white geese led by the fat man, like a lightning bolt in the night, and said to the fat man, "Goose...... Goose ......"
The fat man said: "Goose goose goose, white hair floating in green water, red anthurium plucking clear waves." ”
I said, "No, no, I mean, I didn't think of the goose, do you know what to do when the Necropolis is about to be completed?" And they shall slaughter three animals and sacrifice them to heaven, and bind them to the earth. ”
The big golden tooth lost his voice and said, "Ah, Master Hu, are you saying that the two geese we brought brought out the ghost mound?" ”
I said: "Yes, why the hell didn't I think of this, I want to dig the hole in the fishbone temple to touch the gold captain, after the hole is dug to the underground palace, in order to test the air quality in the temple, it must also be our old method of fighting backwards, using live birds to detect the qi, he took chickens, ducks and geese and other birds into it, and then he was trapped by the ghost mound." ”
In ancient times, when the mausoleum was built, after the construction of the underground palace was completed, pigs, cattle and sheep were slaughtered in the tomb, and five birds were tied to the ground, in order to invite the creatures near the ancient tomb, and please God to give peace to this place, so that the tomb owner could rest in peace and not be disturbed.
This saying is called: "Three animals reach the sky, and three birds reach the earth." "The pig's head, the cow's head, and the sheep's head are worshiped at the same time, which is very solemn and can convey the message to the heavens, and the three birds are sacrificed to the gods who live on the earth. Poultry and livestock can make the remaining qi of the true acupoint condensed, so the poultry and livestock must be buried in the burial pit along the lineage of the star palace.
The big gold tooth said: "The wild is the goose, the home is the goose, the wild goose is domesticated, and it becomes a goose, the goose in the three birds, is the most spiritual of the three birds, the legend is that the goose can see ghosts, maybe it is because we inadvertently took the goose into the thief hole, alarmed the ghost mound of the Western Zhou Dynasty." ”
I grabbed a big white goose, took out the paratrooper knife, whether it was or not, slaughtered both geese, and then raised the knife to cut the trachea of the goose's neck.
The big gold tooth seemed to suddenly think of something, and hurriedly pressed my hand: "Don't, Master Hu, I suddenly thought that we were wrong." ”
