Chapter 31: Something for Ghosts

When I returned to the big tent, I saw the fat man and Ah Ning, and told them about Li Shanchang's order to go to the grave. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The fat man sat on the bed and clenched his fists and slammed the bed board hard, scolding: "I don't think this old man is a good thing, and he doesn't care about our lives for his own military salary?" Xiao Jiang, listen to me, we won't go down to this tomb. ”

"Okay fat man, don't forget that we are now in the Yuan Dynasty, and now the lives of a few of us are still in the hands of others, if you continue to shout, if he hears it, I think the heads of several of us will not be saved." A-Ning glared at the fat man, seemingly very dissatisfied with the fat man's reckless character. After being reprimanded by A-Ning, the fat man kept his head shut and stopped talking.

I sat in my chair in a daze, thinking about some nonsense, and I was in no mood to listen to the fat man's ramblings.

A Ning walked up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and said, "Brother Xiaojiang, do we have to go to the grave?" There is no other way? ”

"We can't go back now, if we don't go to the tomb, we probably won't even be able to save our lives, but it's still dangerous to go to the tomb, hey" I sighed, but I felt that this long sigh couldn't spit out the boredom in my heart, at this time I missed the world we used to be in for the first time, and the relatives in that world, and tears couldn't help but fall.

A-Ning took a handkerchief to help me wipe my tears and said, "Brother Xiao Jiang, don't worry, at least we are with us, we will accompany you no matter what, Yang Zhi and the fat man also support you, even if we can't go back, we have to work hard to live well here." ”

"Yes, grandma's, isn't it the next tomb? I've been to the Fat Xuanming Shrine Naihe, what else can I do with a broken tomb. The fat man suddenly said with high spirits.

Just when I was excited about A-Ning and the fat man's words, I had an extra hand on my shoulder, I turned my head with red eyes, and saw Yang Zhi, who is usually not good at talking, came over and put his hand on my shoulder, and said a sentence for a long time: "Senior brother, support you." ”

After receiving everyone's support, I suddenly felt that I had become extremely powerful. I couldn't sleep at night, lying in bed thinking about the matter of the ancient tomb of Feilai Mountain, in fact, I was not afraid of the coffin in the ancient tomb or something, I found that it was a knot in my heart that hindered me, but what is this knot? I thought about it until it was nearly the wee hours of the morning when I fell asleep.

In the morning, Cao Lao Liu brought breakfast early, and a few of us walked in the barracks after breakfast, and suddenly there were a lot of soldiers gathered not far away, looking very lively.

"What's going on there?" I asked Cao Lao Liu beside me.

Cao Lao Liu stretched out his head and looked at it, and said: "Last night, I caught a soldier who stole the people's food, and Master Li Shanren ordered the death penalty according to the military order issued by King Wu in the past, and now the death penalty is being carried out there?" ”

"Stealing people's food is punishable by death?" A-Ning looked into the distance in surprise.

Cao Lao Liu smiled and said: "Yes, King Wu is strict in governing the army, and the order prohibits stealing the grain of the common people, this is military law, and disobeying military law is a dead end." ”

Hearing Cao Lao Liu's words, my heart lit up, and I felt that I pulled Cao Lao Liu to say seriously: "Cao Lao Liu, let me ask you, stealing grain here is a capital crime, so what is the crime of stealing ancient tombs?" ”

"There shouldn't be any sin in this, besides, King Wu has named you the captain of the touching gold, I think you are not guilty of robbing the tomb, there should be a reward!" Cao Lao Liu looked at me with a puzzled expression.

"I understand, I understand, haha" I shouted happily after listening to Cao Lao Liu's words, because I finally understood what the knot in my heart was, in the past, in that rule of law society, tomb robbery was a crime, and tomb robbers were also considered a kind of thief, but now it is the Yuan Dynasty, and I still touch Jin Xiaowei, even if I dig up the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, no one will convict me, let alone ask for my life.

When I figured this out, we stopped wandering around the barracks, but asked Cao Lao Liu to take a few of us to the market to buy some tools for the tomb, in the bazaar we bought some food and other things, we also prepared candles and ropes or something, Cao Lao Liu checked the things we bought, and finally shook his head and said to me: "I said Lord Song, I see that you still have something to prepare." ”

Hearing Cao Lao Liu say that there were still things that were not ready, I hurriedly checked one side again, but found that I had bought everything that should be bought, and I looked at Cao Lao Liu suspiciously: "I have seen it, we have already bought everything that should be bought." ”

Cao Lao Liu's head shook like a rattle, and finally pointed to the things we bought and said, "We have bought all the things used by these people, but we have nothing for the ghosts." ”

"You're saying we should prepare something to ward off evil spirits?" I asked tentatively.

Cao Lao Liu clapped his hands with a smile and said, "By the way, this is it." ”

The things used for ghosts in the tomb, Cao Lao Liu said more vaguely, just said in general terms, if you really talk about things for ghosts, the story will be long. There are generally three types of things that are used for ghosts: one is something that worships ghosts, another is something that discovers ghosts, and the last is something that destroys ghosts. This sacrificial ghost thing can be ignored, what we are doing is the act of robbing the tomb, it is impossible to sacrifice ghosts, Cao Laoliu is talking about the latter two things, discovering ghosts and destroying ghosts. The ancients believed that the underground is a dark place, with heavy yin qi, suitable for ghosts and ghosts, and there will always be some unclean things in the tomb, such as ghosts, ghosts, and so on. But people and ghosts are separated by yin and yang, so if you want to find them, you have to use tools, of course, there are some people in the world who have yin and yang eyes, they can understand yin and yang with just a pair of eyes, but we are just ordinary people. My master Puhui Lao Tao once told me that the compass can help us find the location of ghosts, so the compass is an indispensable tool for us. For the pulp, it is simple, you can see it by the eyes.

There are too many things to destroy ghosts, such as the well-known black dog blood, boy urine, Nine Emperor Money, and so on. But to deal with the gourd, these things are not easy to use, to deal with the gourd, you must use glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, and those knives that can destroy the integrity of the flesh, and so on.

Thinking of this, I knocked my head and said embarrassedly: "Yes, how did I forget such an important thing." ”

"It doesn't matter, we still have time, let's keep buying." After Cao Lao Liu finished speaking, he took us into the market again.

In the end, we bought a compass, some glutinous rice and other things, and I went to a weapon shop and picked out a thick Pu knife as my self-defense weapon. Seeing that everything was ready, we returned to the barracks with peace of mind.

When we got back to the barracks and moved everything into the tent, the fat man didn't seem very happy when he looked at what we had prepared.

"Fatty, what's wrong?" I smiled and looked at the fat man and said.

"It's nothing, it's just that you are going to the grave, and I want to go too, but I'm really depressed, and this body is not angry." The fat man said by patting his leg with his hand.

"Don't be unhappy, there will be opportunities in the future, this time you can recuperate in the barracks with peace of mind, get better quickly, and wait until next time we go together." Aning saw that the fat man was unhappy and came over to comfort the fat man.

"Okay, got it, but you have to be careful, come back early, I'll wait for you here." The fat man said, looking at the fat man's serious expression, I knew that the fat man was worried about our safety.

"Lord Song, I'm back." We were chatting with the fat man when I suddenly heard someone call me, and when I looked up, Xiao Linzi had already walked into the big tent with a smile and came to me.

Seeing Xiao Linzi come back, I was very happy, I always thought that he would stop for a few days before he could come back, but I didn't expect to come back today, I looked at Xiao Linzi happily and said, "Xiao Linzi, did you send grain and grass back?" ”

"That is, I heard that Lord Song is going to the tomb, so I urged Wang De to hurry up, isn't it a few days in advance to come back, when will we leave?" Xiao Linzi had a smile on his face, and he could see that he was looking forward to going to the tomb this time.

"Xiao Linzi, don't follow you to the tomb this time, you stay and take care of the fat man." I lowered my head and said, I'm a soft-hearted person, and I can't see the loss of others.

"Oh, okay, everything is up to the arrangement of the adults." Xiao Linzi simply obeyed my orders, but it made me feel that I was not embarrassed.

As soon as the fat man heard that Xiao Linzi stayed to take care of him, he seemed to feel a lot more comfortable, and he sat on the bed and shouted: "I said Xiao Linzi, how good it would be for the two of us to stay and take care of the house, I think when they leave, let's get some wine, get some meat and drink a little more, isn't this the Yuan Dynasty?" It's not illegal to rob this tomb, so it should be okay to find a young lady, do you understand what I said? ”

After the fat man finished speaking, he kept smirking at Xiao Linzi, everyone could understand the fat man's words, A-Ning first cast a contemptuous look at the fat man, and Xiao Linzi and Cao Lao Liu stood there embarrassed and looked at me.

"Okay fatty, I think you're really shameless, you can say this kind of thing, A-Ning is still here." I yelled at the fat man, feeling that the fat man should not say such a thing as looking for a young lady when he was guarding the girl.

After I finished scolding the fat man, I turned my head to Xiaolinzi scholar Li Shanchang and said: "These days when I am away, remember, this fat man can't eat meat, can't drink, and can't find any girls, you have to take care of him, this is an order." ”

Xiao Linzi saw my serious face, and hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Yes, follow the orders of the adults." ”

"Cao Lao Liu, you go to Lord Li's big tent now, tell Master Li that we will go on the road tomorrow, and ask him to send us some manpower over, and prepare more tools for digging up the soil and opening the tomb, and prepare more bows and arrows." I instructed Cao Lao Liudao.

After Cao Lao Liu received my instructions, he didn't dare to delay and hurriedly went to Li Shanchang's big tent, and I, A Ning, Yang Zhi and Xiao Linzi began to pack up their equipment.

I took the backpack I had before again, looking at the contents inside, I reached out and took out the flashlight and turned on the switch, the flashlight still has a bright light, looking at the light from the flashlight I thought, there are still flashlights and other things, if there are no these, it must be very uncomfortable to rely on the candle to enter the tomb, but it has been used for a long time, and I don't know when there is no power, I quickly turned off the flashlight and put it in the backpack.
