Chapter Twenty-Five: Cave Robbery?

The Poison-Eyed Dragon noticed that the thing in the hand of the figure on the stone box was very similar to the tiger talisman in my hand, but he couldn't find the disc at the foot of the figure, even the disc he had seen in the Backrooms before was only for directions, and it was a world of difference from what was carved on it.

The Poison-Eyed Dragon tells us that in addition to the curse, what is depicted on the gate is the identity of the tomb's owner.

The owner of the tomb was a general of the Cuban State before his death, and although the surname was recorded on the door, he didn't know these two words, the poison-eyed dragon, so the fat man also laughed at him for a long time.

However, the general who was able to live such a huge burial system and build such a huge mausoleum shows that his influence is by no means ordinary, and his identity is not simple.

That's just it, even what the general did and what contributions he made during his lifetime, there is not half a word mentioned in the picture and text on the gate, it seems that the general was instructed by the general before his death, and he deliberately let people do it.

In the entire ancient tomb, except for this gate, there seems to be nothing else that can explain the identity of the tomb owner, and the most incomprehensible thing is that since this great general has such a high reputation, what kind of person wants to harm him, arranging the tomb in such an extremely yin place, causing the general's corpse to change.

The poison-eyed dragon said: "Maybe the zongzi we met is not a general, but now that I think about it, I feel that something is wrong, judging from his clothes, that zongzi should be a civilian official, not a military general." ”

The fat man and I were a little confused, a civilian official and a military general, and finally told us that the corpses in this tomb were not what we knew, which seemed to challenge our brain nerves too much.

The fat man shook his somewhat confused head: "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, you said that my brain usage this year can't catch up with you, so just say it directly, what's the use of this box." ”

"The fat man is joking, then I'll make a long story short." The poison-eyed dragon sighed and pondered for a moment: "To put it simply, this cemetery is not used to bury that general, but a trap set for another civil official. ”

In ancient times, if a person was powerful and powerful, but even arrogant, for the rich and unkind, some people would think of some tricks to design and frame him, in order to harm the descendants.

There is such a story in the ancient seal, the age of the story is not very long, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty due to the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister system that lasted for thousands of years, abolished three provinces, and six directly transmitted the chapter to the emperor, to some extent, it did strengthen the centralization of power and consolidate the imperial power.

However, this also brings a big drawback, if the emperor is not diligent enough, or the ability to resist pressure is not strong enough, once these things are piled up together, psychologically can not bear such pressure, directly pick the son and quit, the most proud will become the emperor's close minister-eunuch.

Some eunuchs who are good at pondering people's hearts will conspire with some ill-intentioned ministers in the process of passing on the recitals to exchange the recitals or simply not report them, and the emperor at this time will become a deaf ear-ornament.

Yan Song, the traitor of the Jiajing Dynasty, is one of them, after the fall of the previous great eunuch Liu Jin, Yan Song suddenly rose up, gradually controlled the court, controlled the emperor's people, and was a personal eunuch.

But no matter how much the royal power is fought, it should not harm the people, otherwise the day of the disaster will be the time of destruction. And Yan Song's greed is not only about power, but also about money, whether it is a year of great drought, the court's disaster relief money and grain, or the treasury taxes, all of them have been plucked by him.

The people dare to be angry but dare not speak, and the minister has the heart to hoe and rape but is powerless to return to heaven. Because the emperor has become the pet of Yan Song's family, it is not something that anyone can see when he says he can see it, and he must get Yan Song's approval to see the emperor.

This year, I don't know where a master of feng shui came from, and it was spread in Beijing, and I don't know who this person's surname is. I only know that he has a number "Golden Crow". On the contrary, if anyone can get the land where he is, he will be blessed by heaven, and his children will enjoy eternal prosperity and prosperity for all generations.

If a person reaches a certain position and his mind is not right, he will feel that he has a sharp sword hanging on his head, and he may want his own head at any time, and Yan Song is naturally no exception. But if he really wants to rebel, he lacks the guts, after all, if the rebellion fails, no one will leave him half a seedling, and the emperor is still this emperor; If he is lucky, he will worry about whether the courtiers below will have the same people as himself, and instead of worrying all day long, it is better to make his life better.

So he ordered someone to find the Jinwudao man and asked him to give his ancestral tomb a good piece of land, so as to bless his Yan family to enjoy wealth forever.

The people of Jinwudao saw that it was a person sent by Yan Xiangye, and he couldn't shirk it anyway, and the person who came also said that if he saw it well, Xiangye would be rewarded.

On the second day, the Jin Wu Dao people met with Yan Song, Yan Song asked him what he wanted, and the Jin Wu Dao people said: "I have only one request, as the saying goes, peers are enemies, no matter when, Xiang Ye hears who questions the words of the poor Dao, please tell the Xiang Ye bluntly, the poor Dao can confront him face to face, if the Xiang Ye agrees, the poor Dao should find an auspicious place for the Xiang Ye." ”

Within three days, the Jinwudao people told Yan Song that the place had been chosen, and an auspicious day could be chosen to move the tomb.

Less than half a month after the start of construction, seeing that the prototype of the cemetery was first seen for the first time, the Jinwudao people came to the door, handed in a drawing of the cemetery, and threatened that the cemetery must be built in accordance with the regulations he designed, only in this way can it be called an auspicious place, which can be guaranteed for thousands of generations.

Yan Song did not hesitate to agree to the Jinwudao people, and a few months later, the construction of Yan Song's ancestral tomb was completed, and countless feng shui masters went to pay their respects and learn during these months.

Among them, there are some ill-intentioned people, seeing the place chosen by the Jinwudao people, they went to Yan Song's mansion to talk nonsense, and Yan Song also repeatedly sent people to the Jinwudao people's residence, but they did not call him to come.

Just let the next person see if the Jinwudao people are still there, every time they get news, the Jinwudao people are sitting at home, and there is nothing unusual.

Yan Song ordered people to blast out all the feng shui warlocks who came to talk nonsense, and even after that, whenever the feng shui warlocks came to see them, they were directly bombed away, and there was no need to report them.

A few years later, Yan Song fell, and he didn't understand why this was until he died, and he couldn't even figure out why he ended up like this even though he moved his ancestral grave.

Some people say that before he died, the Jinwudao people cast a spell and came to meet with him and explained the original situation.

The place chosen by the Jinwudao people is indeed not an auspicious place, if it is used as a tomb site, it will eventually become a place of evil, but anyone who knows some feng shui can see the clues at a glance, and he left a hand for himself, which is what he said when he met Yan Song for the first time.

I thought that this sentence would not have much effect on Yan Song, so I put on a sketch of the layout of the cemetery, but if anyone doubts it, this sketch can make a big fuss. But he never thought that from beginning to end, Yan Song never sent anyone to find him.

After the Yan family's ancestral tomb was designed and relocated by the Jinwudao people, his family's fortunes also suffered earth-shaking changes.

It can be seen that if the feng shui master wants to harm people and do something on the ancestral tomb, ordinary people will not be able to detect it at all, even if someone really knows the secret, as long as this person can deal with it perfectly, it is not impossible to get through the trick.

If our current cemetery is really a harmful trap as the poison-eyed dragon said, then the methods used are not without similarities with the tactics used by the Jinwudao people.

The poison-eyed dragon said: "What Zou Ye said is very true, the art of feng shui does not harm the people of the world, but the people of the future, and the people who bless it are also the people of the future. This ancient tomb project is huge, it is rare in the world, the person engraved on the giant gate is a military general, if the person buried in the tomb is not himself, it must be his opponent, and this person must leave his name in the history books, at the moment forced by limited clues, the person buried in this ancient tomb knows very little, and even does not know who it is. ”

The fat man said strangely on the side: "Seeing that you are all speaking in a vernacular, can't you speak something that you can understand?" Having said all this, no one told me what the curse had to do with this tomb, and how we were going to get out? ”

The poison-eyed dragon was a little embarrassed and smacked his teeth: "This... But it's not that there is no way to get out, although the pictures and texts on the stone box and the gate do not give a clear way, but they have explained some problems, just because we are walking in reverse, and we know very little about the things on the other side of the gate of the ancient tomb, and we are afraid that it is not appropriate to go out rashly. ”

At this time, the white-haired old man, who had been in a coma for a long time, gradually gained some consciousness, heard our conversation, and said a few words to the woman surnamed Lan with difficulty, and the woman surnamed Lan said to us loudly: "Mr. Zou, my eldest brother has something for me to tell you." ”

When I heard this, the fat man and the poison-eyed dragon hurriedly cut off the chatterbox, and walked to the woman surnamed Lan, I looked at the white-haired old man beside her, the injury on his foot has been much better, it will take some time to pull out the corpse poison, and now the only glutinous rice left is only enough for him to change it three more times, I removed the gauze on his ankle and replaced him with fresh glutinous rice.

The woman surnamed Lan saw that I had changed the glutinous rice, so she said: "The eldest brother just reminded me of something, maybe it will be useful for a few people..."

What the woman surnamed Lan said was that they overheard the Yamashita villager talking to a Chinese in the office when they took over the task. The Chinese told the villagers that after entering the ancient tomb, no matter what you see or hear, you must not take it seriously, and you must achieve complete protection in the ancient tomb, and never drink a drop of water from the tomb, even if it is mountain spring water flowing from the mountain stream. Otherwise, there will be a life in and no life out.

This sentence alone caused the three of us to fall into a wave of confusion again. I have no prejudice against the four white-haired old men, whether it is his defection to the Japanese, or his participation in the Burmese guerrillas, they are just making people, to be honest, if there is a good life, who wants to eat with their heads all day long.

But we still have doubts about his words from the bottom of our hearts, after all, if it is false, then his purpose is really a little elusive.

The fat man suddenly raised his eyebrows and said strangely: "What do you mean?" Could it be that Sun Mingyi's father drank the water in it back then? ”

I shook my head: "No, Sun Denian left not long after entering the cave, and he only stayed in the cave for more than ten hours, not to mention that he has been avoiding the pursuit of the child fish, where does he have time to drink water in the cave." ”

The woman surnamed Lan didn't feel inappropriate when she heard my words, but nodded slightly: "Mr. Zou's analysis is very reasonable, but we only heard this at the beginning, so we prepared a lot of drinking water before entering the tomb." ”

I glanced at the poison-eyed dragon who had been silent on the side, he was looking down and pondering, probably having the same concerns as me, but then he raised his head with a smile: "Master Zou, since we have such an important clue, you might as well use it, open this stone box first, take out the contents inside, and then there will be a way to do the rest of the matter." ”

I still believe in the poison-eyed dragon, and now that he said this, he naturally has his plan: "Okay, in that case, let's open the door first." Whether it is dead or alive depends on this, and the little ghost of Hades will meet sooner or later. ”

According to the Poison-Eyed Dragon's interpretation, if you want to open it, you must first open the box placed on the stone platform, and for now, only the contents of the stone box can lead us to some clues related to the gate.

Where did you see it, the poison-eyed dragon behaved very mysteriously, and we can't ask more.

In front of the stone box, the poison-eyed dragon said to me: "Master Zou, the gossip of the five elements, you are more familiar than me, and the disc on this box can only be unlocked by you in my opinion." ”

I looked at the disc on the stone box, there was a person standing on the disc, at first glance I couldn't see any clues, let alone want to find something in it, but since the poison-eyed dragon said it, I still seriously looked for clues on the stone box.

The stone box was covered with dust, and I brushed the dust off the box with my hand, and there were some small marks around the box, which looked a little messy.

The poison-eyed dragon said, "You don't look like an old man wearing a crown. ”

Looking in the direction pointed by the poison-eyed dragon, there was indeed an old man with a crown in a subtle pattern. The poison-eyed dragon pointed to the other and said, "Does this look like a woman with a child in her arms?" ”

The old man with the crown, the mother with the child in her arms, the slave in chains, the sergeant with the sword, the young man in robes, the dignified young woman, the hard-working peasant, and the young man reading at night under the lamp, there were exactly eight people.

Seeing that I still didn't react, the poison-eyed dragon reminded: "Zou Ye is proficient in the Five Elements Bagua, but as far as I know, each hexagram in the gossip represents something different, I don't know if it is or not?" ”

It suddenly dawned on me that although these eight people were unusually profound, it added a lot of mystery to their identities. As soon as the poison-eyed dragon reminded him, it was not difficult to guess the meaning of these eight people on this picture.

The old man wearing the crown represents the Qiangua in the gossip, and the mother holding the child in her arms represents the Kun hexagram, and so on represents Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, and Gen respectively.

Calculated in turn, the location of the hexagram is where the Shengmen is located, and we immediately look for clues in the direction pointed by the Shengmen.

Sure enough, within a moment's effort, the fat man found a tiger-shaped pattern behind a phoenix stone statue, just enough to put down the half of the tiger talisman, the fat man first pressed it with his hand, there was no response, and I asked him to print the tiger talisman and gently press the pattern, the stone box on the stone platform behind him made a creaking sound, everyone was overjoyed, and the upper layer of the stone box had revealed a gap.

I took a flashlight and looked into the gap, it was pitch black, and I vaguely saw that something seemed to be on display.

With a glove on the lid of the stone box, I gently pushed it back, and the lid fell down, and immediately came out with half a tiger charm that was almost identical to that in my hand.

The fat man hurriedly took it from my hand, and was overjoyed: "Oh, it's really hard to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there." I didn't expect this thing to be hidden so deeply, no wonder these people couldn't find it, how could they open this box without this half of the thing. ”

The poison-eyed dragon obviously didn't expect this to be the case, and looked at it in the stone box, and took out a scroll of books under the tiger talisman, and the poison-eyed dragon took out the books and opened them, and the books were milky white, although it had lasted for thousands of years, as far as I was concerned, I could still see at a glance that this thing was indeed a treasure, made of a piece of high-quality white jade, and each book was connected by filaments, and with a slight movement, it turned into powder.

The Poison-Eyed Dragon carefully spread the jade slip on the ground, found the banknote, and copied the pattern on it intact.

This is also a unique science passed down by his father, copying calligraphy and painting, almost can be done with the fake, the poison-eyed dragon has been invading in the antique shop for many years, and its copying attainments are even more extreme.

In less than half an hour, on a jade slip spread out half a meter long, all the contents were copied by him on a white cloth.

Everyone present, including me, was amazed when they saw the poison-eyed dragon demonstrate this stunt for the first time. The fat man's eyes were about to pop out on the side: "Brother Si, I really didn't expect that you still have this stunt, if you copy a famous painting and take it out to be fake, who can see it." ”

The poison-eyed dragon put away the pen and paper, carefully wrapped the scattered jade slips with a cloth, found a separate package and put it in, and then smiled at the fat man: "The fat man said that he laughed, this copy is, it is part of the fraud, it may be useful in the past, but now it is not good, now it is all about using high-tech means to identify the age, we can't get the paper hundreds of thousands of years ago." ”

What the poison-eyed dragon said is true, the papermaking process in the past is not what the current high technology can imitate, not to mention that every piece of paper has been passed down to the present, will leave a certain trace of time, and it cannot be imitated, with the development of science and technology, people have long been unnecessary to use their eyes to distinguish the true from the false.

Watching the Poison-Eyed Dragon pack up his things, I asked him what to do next, the stone box was opened, and there was any information left on the worn-out books.

The poison-eyed dragon picked up the copied picture, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What Zou Ye said is that this thing does tell us how to open the gate, and it also tells us what is on the other side of the gate." But I only understand the picture above, I can't understand the words on it, Zou Ye, take a look. ”

I took the copy of the blueprint from the poison-eyed dragon's hand and looked through it under the flashlight, the first half of it was all drawings, depicting almost all the things we saw in the ancient tomb, but it didn't seem to be different from the direction we were taking.

The poison-eyed dragon smiled: "Master Zou, you see it wrong, the writing habits of the ancients are the opposite of ours. ”

I coughed embarrassedly twice, although I had the heart to turn over and look, but I was a little embarrassed, so I still stubbornly looked upside down: "I know, I just want to see the picture above, you don't know a few words, I won't know it." ”

If there is no problem with the copying of the poison-eyed dragon, then I have to feel the expression and calligraphy skills of the ancients, the first half of the whole picture is almost the same as the road we have walked, and the most important point is that there is a closed biological chain in this whole cave.

The bats live at the bottom of the biological chain, and the blue-eyed monsters in the passages are the highest predators of the rabbits, but due to their range of movement, only prey that falls into the ravines around the pyramids can be eaten by them.

The so-called eating here is not swallowing in the mouth in the real sense, but the living creature that is swallowed by the ravine, converting the digested prey into nutrients, and transporting it to his body through the iron chain tied to its body, so as to ensure that it can continue to live, in a sense, it cannot die.

Those ribbed winged toads also bear the role of nutrients to some extent, but the number is also extremely limited, so it is also the fundamental reason why the speed and size of those blue-eyed monsters are different.

And those bats are actually eating some small things with very strong reproductive ability at the entrance of this cave, such as some very small mosquitoes, Xiaoqiang and the like.

But I can see that the original design of this ancient tomb should not be completely closed, but leave a certain gap.

Strangely, we didn't see the stone door that was hidden under the altar steps, and the passage that was almost trapped in it when we entered, sealed in a figure 6. and hidden under the sinkhole, behind the stone statue.

Poison-eyed dragon said that this should not be deliberately not drawn, but that it was not designed when it was first designed.

I was a little puzzled: "If it's not designed, then how did these passages come about?" It can't be a tomb robber. ”

The poison-eyed dragon smiled and said, "Master Zou, you are a big expert, and you still came to ask me about this." Haven't we come across a decent funeral object or two along the way, don't you think it's strange? With such a big project, it is impossible to be reluctant to put even one or two decent funeral goods. The only explanation is that it was stolen, and the tomb robbers knew the structure of the tomb very well, and it is very likely that it was the designer of the tomb. (To be continued.) )
