Chapter 146: The Secret of the Ghost Tomb
Wei Lai walked to the stele and looked at the stele, Wei Lai himself was proficient in ancient characters, and thought he could understand the words on it, but found that the stele was a distorted pattern, which seemed to be a word but not a word, which made Wei Lai very puzzled. Read the novel
Shen Yueying stared at the stone tablet, saw Wei Lai's embarrassment, stepped forward and said: "This is a special ghost painting calligraphy, it is a narrative method invented by the ancestors of the corpse chasing family, and outsiders can't understand it at all." ”
Wei Lai was very curious about the description on the stele, it was very likely that the origin of the ghost tomb was recorded on the stele, Wei Lai was very curious about the ghost tomb now, he had experienced so many dangers, and he didn't know anything about the ghost tomb, which made him very depressed.
Shen Yueying looked at the stele, and kept translating to Wei Lai and Huo Meng, because the words on the stele were a little vague, and some places were very vague, which brought great difficulty to Shen Yueying, but fortunately, Shen Yueying Bingxue was smart and guessed according to the meaning before and after, so that Wei Lai and Huo Meng could hear clearly.
What is recorded on the stele is indeed the origin of the ghost tomb, the origin of this ghost tomb is very long, in the final analysis, it is built in several stages, and there are all kinds of accidents and dangers along the way, even Wei Lai feels strange and terrible when he listens to it.
The time of the construction of the ghost tomb has gone through hundreds of years, the ancestors of the most open corpse family are not so beautiful and magical, the ancestors of the corpse family are from a humble background, idle all day long, it can be described as poor, when he really has no choice, he thinks of a way to make a living, and finally let him encounter a profession, not only to solve his food and clothing problem, but also to make many people afraid of him, that is, to transport corpses.
In ancient times, it was very difficult to transport corpses, that is, there were often businessmen who died in other places, these businessmen did not say that they were rich and noble, and that was sure that they were rich, and when these people died, they had the saying that the leaves fell back to their roots, and they needed to transport these corpses back to their hometowns, which is the so-called corpse transport, and the people who transported the corpses often received great rewards from their employers, and many poor people would choose to transport corpses.
With the passage of time, the exchanges between the ancient regions deepened, and the major pawnshops appeared, and many merchants began to travel around the country in order to get business progress, which would increase the mortality rate of customers who died in foreign lands, thus stimulating the development of the corpse transportation industry.
Transporting corpses was not accepted, but the wisdom of the ancients was superb, combined with supernatural means such as Qimen Dunjia, it was actually possible to allow the corpse to walk on its own, and this method was constantly improved and deepened, and even won the envy and curiosity of outsiders.
From transporting corpses to chasing corpses, it seems that there is not much change, but it is this change that makes the corpse chasing faction born, with the increase in the number of corpse chasers, there is long-term chaos in major regions, and even corpse chasers frame each other, so that the corpses are not allowed to enter the ground for safety, in order to solve this situation, the corpse chasers organize themselves, and delineate the rules, and the earliest corpse chaser faction is formed, and later over time, the corpse chaser faction becomes a family faction, and there is an obvious bloodline difference.
In the ancient Xiangxi region, the Shen family stood out from many competitions and became the direct family of the corpse chasing faction, and mastered the core spells of the corpse chasing faction, and at this time, the corpse chasing family tended to mature.
The experience of the ghost tomb is very fantastical, because the corpse chaser family was established, and all the corpse chasers had to go through the management of the corpse chaser family, and there were many corpse employers who had accidents, or had no money to pay, and the corpse chasers would throw the corpses into the river as a punishment for the employer.
After they died, they were afraid of being persecuted by others, so they needed to build the cemetery very secretly, and under the consultation of the corpse chaser, build a large cemetery at the source of the corpse throwing river, and bury all the corpse chasers in it after death.
In this way, hundreds of years have passed, more and more corpses have been thrown into the river, and more and more people have been buried by the corpse family, and the river does not know when strange events have occurred, and ghosts have constantly come out to haunt the corpse family.
Some people say that there are too many corpses in the river, and they have been transformed under the gathering of many yin qi, and the best way is to stop throwing corpses, because the cemetery of the corpse family is at the source of the river, they have to give up the ancestral cemetery, and then spend money to build a cemetery, hide the entire river underground, and according to custom, build a mountain wall hanging coffin as a new cemetery.
In order to prevent tomb robbers from robbing tombs, the corpse chasing family designed various dangers, so that tomb robbers knew the difficulty and retreated, and used the tragic ghost to protect the ghost tomb, so that the ghost tomb became more supernatural, when the ghost tomb was finally completed, the Pisces disc became the key to the opening of the ghost tomb. Shen Yueying's statement was very detailed, and the history of the corpse family was particularly clear, making it easy for Wei Lai and Huo Meng to understand, when Shen Yueying finished speaking, Wei Lai sighed and didn't know, he didn't expect that the origin of the corpse family was so wonderful, starting from the lowest level of society, and now everyone knows it.
The stele recorded that the Pisces Disc ended, because later the loss of the Pisces Disc had not been opened for thousands of years, Shen Yueying's father's generation, the corpse family had already existed in name only, if it weren't for the existence of the core secret method, I am afraid that the corpse family would have been disbanded long ago, Shen Yueying's father embarked on the road to find the Pisces Disc alone, and was seized by Shen Wanjun to use huge financial resources to collude with the direct bloodline, usurped the patriarchal position of Shen Yueying's father, and continued to persecute Shen Yueying and her father's relatives.
To Wei Lai's disappointment, there was no news of the Huangquan corpse water recorded on the stone tablet, but another news caught Wei Lai's attention, that is, the ancient cemetery of the corpse family, you must know that in ancient times, chasing corpses was a very magical profession, and often got a lot of strange things, Huangquan corpse water may be in the cemetery, and the stone tablet also recorded how to enter the cemetery, that is, the huge coffin above the altar.
The stele states that in order to enter the burial ground of the corpse chaser family, one must enter the coffin before sinking under the altar.
Wei Lai felt a little ridiculous, it was right that there was a coffin above the altar, but the coffin floated on the water, which means that if they wanted to enter the cemetery, they had to sit on the coffin and sink into the source of the river, if it was true, it would be easy to say, but if it was fake, they would be drowned directly, and they couldn't run in the coffin.
Wei Lai looked at Shen Yueying, and then turned his head to look at Huo Meng, wanting to seek the opinions of the two, after all, this matter is very dangerous, he wants Huangquan corpse water, yes, but knowing that there is danger, he still has to die, that is a stupid behavior.
Wei Lai didn't give up in his heart, the Yellow Spring corpse water was something he lifted the curse, and this kind of thing happened to appear in the ghost tomb, which made Wei Lai very excited, if there was no harvest here, I don't know when it would be next time
