Chapter 613: Strategy

I said: What?

Tie Ta said to me: "Boss, you said that your main purpose this time is to find the Dark King, but there are rumors among the people that this Dark King is the king of nightmares in the whole world, and the nightmares that everyone has have nothing to do with this dark king. Could it be that this time we are still in a dream?

At the time of departure. On the high-speed train, we were all bored, and the tower kept asking me, so I probably said something about the Dark King, and the reminder of the tower at the moment does make some sense.

Because when we were in the cave, the female ghost in white we met didn't actually exist at all, she was just an illusion. With a total of auspicious skills.

And the current nine coffins, will it also be illusion?

The policewoman thought for a moment and said, "It's not so exaggerated, is it?" As soon as you leave the previous illusion, you go straight to the next illusion. When I saw these nine coffins, I remembered a story that the older generation had told me.

I asked: What story? Let's hear it.

The policewoman said: There was once a person of the older generation who told a legend about the nine coffins of the Guigu Valley, although I don't know whether this is true or not. But it seems to have something to do with the nine coffins we saw.

Hearing the policewoman say this, the tower and I are even more energetic, and let the policewoman tell me what is going on. The policewoman began to tell the story in detail.

During the Warring States Period, Guiguzi was in a state of succession, and there were many high-ranking people, and some people suggested that the king invite Guiguzi to come out of the mountain to help them complete the plan of dominating the world.

But who is Guiguzi? He lives a life of idle clouds and wild cranes all day long, never asks about the affairs of the world, but is also at ease. When he was in seclusion, Guiguzi wrote a book "Strategy". This book was accidentally passed out by an apprentice of Guiguzi, and after it was lost in the world, it aroused the idea of the kings of the world.

From this "Strategy", the kings saw the hope of the unification of the world, so they sent many envoys to invite Guiguzi out of the mountain. Because the tree is very windy. Nowadays, it is not as simple as not going out behind closed doors.

Therefore, Guiguzi is on the road that must be passed through in the valley. Pose a formation, this formation is called the Nine Coffins of the Ghost Valley.

It is said that the nine coffins set up by Guiguzi are different, using all the materials that can be used in the world, creating nine completely different coffins, he warned the world, anyone who wants to enter the mountain, must pass through the nine coffins of Guigu, but if you can't crack the nine coffins of Guigu, you will enter rashly, and you will bear the consequences.

The power of the nine coffins in this ghost valley is similar to the nine-palace gossip array of Zhuge Kongming in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Don't look at the nine coffins in this area, put them at the mouth of the valley. No one can get on it.

All the people who entered the formation did not see anyone alive or dead, anyway, as long as they did not succeed in breaking the formation, they would never have a chance to appear in this world from now on.

For a time, Guiguzi became even more famous, attracting more attention from kings and more adventures. I saw batches of slaves, soldiers, and Taoist masters, all of whom were sent here, some of them were coerced and enticed, and some of them came voluntarily. But without exception. After they entered the Nine Coffins Formation in the Ghost Valley, none of them came out alive.

Why is this Guiguzi famous through the ages? After all, no one is hard-hearted, seeing that people in the world keep coming here to take risks, and people keep dying in the Guigu Nine Coffin Array, Guiguzi can't stand it anymore, so he announced to the world and released four apprentices, letting them go out of the mountain to help virtuous people achieve the world.

And the names of these four people are almost unknown to everyone, and when they were in elementary school, everyone saw them in textbooks, and even learned a lot of allusions about them.

Zhang Yi, Su Qin, Sun Bin and Pang Juan. and Mao Sui, and later Xu Fu. These people are all worshiped from Guiguzi, and they have the true inheritance of Guiguzi, so they all became dragons and phoenixes among people in the future, leaving a strong mark in history.

It's just that the story of Guiguzi and the stories of his apprentices have been handed down, and the nine coffins of Guigu, which has killed countless people, have not been recorded in the official history. History is always like this, it is a little girl who dresses up as anyone, and some things are inconvenient to record, so they will not be recorded.

But just because it's not recorded doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I asked the policewoman about the details of the Guigu Nine Coffin Array, and the policewoman said: This is not clear, I just heard this story, I heard about the Guigu Nine Coffin Array, but I don't know what the nine coffins are like.

I slapped my forehead and sighed, this is hard.

After all, what the policewoman is telling is just a story, let's not tell whether it's true or not, at least what the nine coffins in the nine coffins in the ghost valley in her story are like, I haven't made it clear. Although the coffins in the story and the coffins in front of us are both nine, just because the number is the same, we can't say that the nine different coffins in front of us are the nine coffins in the Guigu Valley, right?

Even if it were, then we couldn't crack it.

The tower consciously took a step back and said to me: Boss, let's all go to the back, but don't walk into this coffin array, otherwise you may encounter something.

We all took several steps back until we reached the mouth of the cave, and the three of us looked at each other, staring at the nine coffins, and no one dared to act rashly.

"It's really not an easy task to find the Dark King." I muttered, I was helpless in the face of these nine coffins.

The policewoman said: Abu, I remember that you used to know how to puppetry, why don't you make a puppet now and put it into the Nine Coffins Array of Guigu, and see how the puppet reacts at that time?

It's okay, but the problem is, I've almost forgotten about the puppetry. The second master once taught me some of them, and the ancestor's imperial technique was also recorded in it, and even the ghost king told me about puppetry.

But the three of them explained to me the same thing: puppetry, although interesting, is not the right way, and it is not a great thing, so you can be interested in learning it, but don't be overly obsessed.

I think in modern terms, it should be: although the inflatable doll is good, it must be tempered and not excessively absurd, otherwise it will damage your body.

After all, it's not okay to lose your mind with a plaything, so I think the reason should be similar. But the key now is that I can't make any large puppets, and even if I can, I don't have the materials.

Yellow paper, cinnabar, dog blood, wolf hair, I didn't bring any of these things, after all, I'm not here to catch ghosts, besides, I won't catch ghosts. Once, with the help of the second master, I raised a female ghost who was less courageous than me, and later integrated it into my body, and it seems that I have to raise another ghost when I have time.

After thinking about it, I said to the two of them: Let's make a smaller puppet, I'll try as much as I can, if it doesn't work, let's think of another way.

With that, I pulled out my water bottle and started walking slowly towards the ground, looking for a place with dirt. Although the cave is all stony, there are places where a lot of earth remains.

After finding the dirt, I asked the tower to wrap the dirt in a circle, then poured a little water from the kettle into it, and began to mix the mud.

Finally, with mud, I pinched out a small figure, only about a palm high, while the clay figure was not dry, I cut my fingers, dripped blood on the forehead of the little man, and recited a spell, when I finished the mantra, the little man was still standing in place, motionless.

"Uh...... ......I scratched my head, the atmosphere was a little awkward, I blamed myself for not reviewing my homework much, and this time it was embarrassing.

There was no other expression on their faces, but they kept staring at me, as if asking me, why didn't the clay figure leave?

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Wait a minute."

Picking up the black light dagger, I cut off a strand of my hair, glued it to the top of the clay figure's head, made a hairstyle similar to the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and then dripped a drop of blood, and after reciting the incantation, a magical scene happened.

Two rays of light appeared on the clay figure's face, and it had eyes, and it immediately began to come alive with a leap of time, as if waiting for my instructions.

The policewoman said happily: It's a success!

I scratched my head, smiled, looked down at the clay figures, and said, "Do you see the nine coffins?" Go, knock on one by one, especially the last leaf coffin, and when you get close, you tear off a leaf vigorously, and then bring it back to me, understand?
