Chapter 138: Darkness Responds to the Stars
_From(.)
The reason why Zuo Dengfeng is eager to go to the second floor of the Golden Pagoda is because there are giant axes next to the bones of these giants parked on the first floor, which means that these giants were warriors before they were alive, and they didn't even have coffins, which shows how low their status was during their lifetime, and there is no need to stay here.
"The bones were previously soaked in water." Jade Fu said as he walked forward.
"Golden roosters breed a lot of water vapor, and it is not uncommon to have water." Zuo Dengfeng said casually.
The three of them quickly came to the east side and climbed the stairs, there was no portal between the first and second floors, they were connected, and when they entered the second floor, the three of them were immediately stunned. Here is full of precious gold, silver and jade, mostly gold, gold utensils and ornaments are everywhere, large and small jade, agate jade rough stones, all kinds of rare and exotic objects are scattered on the ground of the second floor of the golden pagoda.
"Move them all away, and you can form an army." Yu Fu said with a smile.
"What the hell is this place?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned in astonishment, he naturally wouldn't form any army.
"Golden stirrups, golden horse chews, golden bowls, golden cups, these things should not appear here, because the people here are not good at horseback riding, and they cannot be extravagant enough to use gold living utensils, these things may be the spoils of war, or they may be the rewards given to them by the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty." Jade Whisk looked around and spoke left and right.
"Makes sense." Zuo Dengfeng nodded and said. Back then, the State of Lu once sent giants to help King Wu of Zhou defeat the Emperor, and it was impossible not to receive a reward after the deed was completed.
"Ordinary tombs or altars, treasures are usually placed on the last floor, why is this on the second floor?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke, a thoughtful person is tired, and he has a question mark in his mind at the moment.
"I don't know, it's also ten zhang high, and the golden pagoda is indeed divided into seven floors." The jade whisk could not answer Zuo Dengfeng's questions.
"Amitabha, the old man has no bowl, this is a good one." Iron Shoes stepped forward, picked up a golden bowl, and put it in his arms.
Zuo Dengfeng and Yufu smiled invariably when they saw this, in fact, the iron shoes were not greedy for money, but they were still childlike, and in his opinion, it was fun to ask for rice with a golden rice bowl.
"Go to the third floor first, and get as many as you can when you come back." Zuo climbed the peak and walked upstairs.
Entering the third floor, the three of them were stunned again, on the west side were dozens of metal casting cells, and the rest of the place was full of all kinds of strange torture instruments.
"This golden pagoda alludes to the Big Dipper." The jade whisk groaned for a moment, and the color spoke.
Zuo Dengfeng turned his head when he heard this, and listened to her continue to explain, for Taoist allusions, Yufu is far better than him.
"The seven floors of the Golden Pagoda are dark against the Big Dipper,
The first layer corresponds to the seventh broken army star of the Big Dipper, which belongs to water, slaves, and the main attack, plunder, and kill. So the first floor is full of soldiers.
The second layer corresponds to the sixth Wuqu star of the Big Dipper, which belongs to gold, the wealth of the silk, and the main wealth of gold and silver. So the second floor is all gold and silver.
The third layer corresponds to the fifth star of the Big Dipper, which belongs to the wood, the punishment of the division, and the lord is honest and benevolent. So it's full of torture instruments. Jade Whisk analyzed them one by one.
"Why did they arrange the Golden Tower like this?" Zuo Dengfeng nodded and asked, what Yu Fu said he had read from the classic Ziwei Doushu given by the golden needle before.
"As we all know, the Beidou Lord dies, and the Nandou Lord lives. The living correspond to the Nandou, and the undead cope with the Beidou, which is a common funeral method, but the layout here is large. Jade Fu explained.
"Let's go, go up." Zuo Dengfeng nodded and turned around to go up to the tower, catching the golden rooster is a top priority, and the others can be studied slowly.
"Fortunately, the golden rooster escaped before, otherwise we would definitely be attacked by those giants this time." Jade Whisk followed and spoke.
"It's all bones, how do you attack?" Iron Shoes asked curiously.
"The corpses of those giants were previously soaked in the yang water bred by the golden rooster, and they maintained a certain living surname, and if outsiders invaded, it was very likely to wake them up. After the golden rooster escaped, the yang water on the first floor was cut off, and the corpse decomposed into a skeleton. In fact, the corpses of the giants on the first floor are tasked with protecting the Golden Pagoda. Zuo Dengfeng replied.
"How do you know?" Zuo Dengfeng's explanation made Iron Shoes even more curious.
Zuo Dengfeng smiled when he heard this, and didn't answer his words again, there was floating soil on the steps, and there were footprints on the floating soil, and there were two pairs of footprints, all of which were human, which showed that the golden rooster took the man to the top of the building, and the golden rooster did not show its original form.
The fourth layer corresponds to Wenqu Xing, which is full of inscriptions, bamboo slips and oracle bones, recording the history of the Lu Kingdom, as he guessed before, the humans of the Lu Kingdom are the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and the giants are the descendants of the defeated Chiyou, and this is indeed the area where the Jiuli tribe is located before.
The fifth layer corresponds to the Lucun Star, this star host is in charge of the longevity of human beings, to here, the space is not big, the thing is only two hundred zhang, there are six golden coffins parked here, these coffins are not more than a zhang long, six feet wide, according to the length of the coffin to judge the coffin was stored in the human corpse. At the north end of the pagoda is a coffin rested, with two in the middle and three on the south side, in a triangular shape.
"There is a feminine thing in the coffin, but it is not powerful." Zuo Dengfeng opened his mouth, and after entering the fifth floor, he immediately felt that there was a feminine object in these six coffins.
Hearing this, Yufu turned around and walked to the nearest golden coffin, lifted the lid of the coffin, and turned to look sideways at the contents of the coffin. Zuo Dengfeng then walked over and found that there was a dry corpse with a female surname lying in the coffin, according to the clothes and headdress of the dry corpse, she should have been a woman with a relatively high status in Lu Guo back then, what Zuo Dengfeng didn't expect was that although this dried corpse had been shriveled and withered, it still had a living surname, and at this moment he was raising his right hand and slowly grabbing it towards Yufu.
"What's going on?" Zuo Dengfeng turned his head to look at the jade whisk. The Maoshan faction is good at controlling yin souls, while the Chenzhou faction is good at controlling yin things, and for this kind of thing, Yufu is a real expert.
Yufu didn't say anything when he heard this, but walked to the second coffin with an expressionless face, and lifted the lid of the coffin, and there was also a dry corpse in the coffin, this dry corpse was a male surname, and his limbs and face had withered, and after the coffin lid was removed, he also moved stupidly to reach out and scratch Yufu. When Zuo Dengfeng approached, Yufu had already walked towards the third coffin, and the dry corpse of the man surnamed in the second coffin didn't seem to be interested in Zuo Dengfeng, slowly turning his withered head to look in the direction where Yufu was, and at the same time struggling to get up, but its vitality had dried up, and its movements were slow and weak.
The jade whisk lifted all the coffins in the tower one after another, and Zuo Dengfeng then stepped forward to observe, and found that the people in these coffins were all men and young women, although most of the clothes they were wearing had decayed, but they could still be seen to be luxurious clothes, which means that the status of these people before their lives was not low.
"These dried corpses don't attack men." Zuo Dengfeng stepped forward and said to the frowning Yufu who was standing.
"They didn't try to attack me because I was a woman." Jade Fu shook his head.
"What's the reason for that?" Zuo Dengfeng asked in amazement.
Yufu didn't say anything when he heard this, but took out a green bamboo tube from his arms and handed it to Zuo Dengfeng, Zuo Dengfeng took it, and the dried corpse in the coffin immediately stretched out his withered fingers to him.
"These dried corpses were poisoned by this kind of poison before they died." Yufu said.
"What's in there?" Zuo Dengfeng shook the bamboo tube and found that it seemed to be a powdery thing inside.
"The same fate Gu, a kind of Gu poison that dies together, is refined with the hair of the spell caster himself, but once this Gu poison is hit, the life and death of the spell caster and the poisoner are tied together." Jade Fu Zhengse said.
"This Gu poison was created by your Chenzhou faction?" Zuo Dengfeng asked questions.
"No, the Chenzhou faction doesn't use poisonous spells, and the poison techniques I studied are secretly passed down by Miao Jiang." Jade Fu shook her head and said.
"The poison used by your people there may have been passed down from the Yongguo." Zuo Dengfeng said.
"This is natural, but this kind of Same-Fate Gu is refined with the hair of the spell caster himself, and the poisonous surnames of the Same-Fate Gu refined by different people are also different, so they shouldn't feel the Same-Fate Gu in my arms, unless they ......" Yu Fu frowned and shook his head at this point.
"Unless what?" Zuo Dengfeng asked.
"Unless this spell caster is related to me." The jade whisk is the right color opening.
"I found a large number of poisonous vessels left by the Yongguo people in the cave outside the formation, which shows that the formation has been laid out when they arrived here, that is to say, this place was not poisoned by Yongguo before, the coffins of these six people are engraved with the names of these people, and their surnames are all Ji without exception, and the clothing and funeral specifications after death are so high, which means that they are nobles, so I guess that these people are the principals of those small cities outside the capital, and they were sent back after being poisoned outside, This person who used poison is most likely the original owner of the phoenix hairpin I gave you. If that's the case, you should be a descendant of the nobility of the Yongguo. Zuo Dengfeng carefully analyzed.
"Then should you call me Princess Jinyu?" Yu Fu said with a smile.
"If you want to, I'll call you a golden hall, what should these people do?" Zuo Dengfeng snorted at the dried corpse in the coffin.
"They have long since died, and the reason why they move is because the Gu poison is still in their bodies, so don't worry about it." Jade Whisk turned and walked to the east steps.
The sixth layer is the giant star, the surname of the soil, the lord is right and wrong, good and evil, this layer of space is more narrow, there are a large number of turtle shells stacked inside, the turtle is regarded as a mascot in ancient times, in addition to the tortoise shell is also a spiritual object for divination, this thing is used for divination is naturally not spiritual, the so-called right and wrong, good and evil are only in the thought of the person in power.
Zuo Dengfeng did not stay for a long time here, but quickly went up to the seventh floor, came to the seventh floor, and found that the layout here was like a boudoir, and the woman who transformed into a golden rooster was sitting on a jade bed in the middle of the room at the moment, calmly looking at Zuo Dengfeng and Yufu and others.
The first star of the Big Dipper is called the Greedy Wolf Star, this star is the main peach blossom, that is to say, it is a color star, the golden rooster is the female, and the woman who is transformed is very charming, and the stars are dark, but the woman it is now transformed is completely different from the one that was transformed before, and it is several times more enchanting.
The three of them lined up and blocked the way, and the golden rooster naturally had nowhere to escape, but Zuo Dengfeng didn't do it immediately, he only knew that finding all six Yin animals might bring Wu Xinyu's flesh and bones back to his soul, but he didn't know how to use the six Yin animals.
