Chapter 14 The lights go out and don't touch the gold

When the four of them arrived in Guangzhou, Ye Lao, Ding Laosan and others had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Yu Fei and his party, Ding Laosan hurriedly greeted him, and Ding Laosan was very grateful to Yu Fei for coming this time. In Ye Lao's heart, he was more worried, he knew that this trip was dangerous, and he was very worried about the personal safety of Yu Fei and Luo Zi, two laymen. To this end, he specially prepared a string of 'Eighteen Sons Bodhi' bracelets for Yu Fei and Luo Zi, the so-called Eighteen Sons of Bodhi, which is a combination of eighteen different Buddhist instruments - Bodhi Seeds, also known as Eighteen Arhats, and at the same time, Eighteen Bodhi Seeds are also with the "Eighteen Realms" of Buddhism, that is, six roots, six dusts, and six consciousnesses correspond to one by one, which is the top product to ward off evil spirits. Ye Lao said that the evil qi in this ancient tomb is too deep, and this eighteen son Bodhi bracelet can prevent the invasion of evil qi. Although I still don't believe in these mysterious statements, but just because I was prepared, Yu Fei and Luo Zi did not shirk it, thanked Ye Lao, and then took the bracelet and put it on my wrist.

Ding Laosan arranged two cars, a Toyota off-road and a Buick business. Ding Laosan asked the mantis to drive the off-road vehicle, which was full of tools, utensils, magic tools and so on prepared for the trip. Ye Lao, Ding Laosan, Yu Fei and Luo Zi sat on Buick Business, driving the old ghost, and the beast and the monkey drove by themselves.

From Guangzhou to Danxia Mountain, you have to go north along the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, about 2 hours' drive to Shaoguan City, and then turn 106 National Highway from Shaoguan City through Ganshao Expressway, about 40 minutes to Renhua County, which is under the jurisdiction of Shaoguan District, Danxia Mountain is located in this Renhua County. On the way, Ye Lao introduced Yu Fei and Luo Zi to the tomb robbery:

"Tomb robbery is also called inverted bucket in the industry, because most of the appearance of this tomb is the appearance of a bucket, and the inverted bucket as the name suggests is to open this tomb. And the person who fights backwards is generally called the captain of the touching gold. In order to make up for the lack of military salaries, Cao Cao of Wei set up military ranks such as Faqiu Zhonglang General and Touching Jin Lieutenant, specializing in robbing tombs to obtain wealth, which was used to supplement military salaries. This tomb robbery mainly relies on the Taoist method of observing feng shui and distinguishing the weather to locate the acupuncture points of the ancient tomb. So later, all those who relied on the method of feng shui to rob tombs were gradually collectively called the captain of the gold school.

Touching the gold line, there is 'the rooster cries out the lamp does not touch the gold' said, if this is the dawn after the rooster crows, you can no longer do the work of touching the gold, and the so-called light out, that is, after entering the tomb, you must light a candle in the southeast corner, if the candle goes out, you have to knock on three rings to withdraw, and can not take anything away. Because it means that the soul of the owner of the tomb is still in this tomb. Tampering with the contents of the tomb may cause mishap. ”

Hearing this, Yu Fei felt that Ye Lao's statement seemed to be too mysterious, so he said: "The extinguishing of the candle should be due to the lack of oxygen in the tomb and the high concentration of carbon dioxide. ”

Ding Laosan, who was sitting in the front co-pilot, smiled: "Hehe, Brother Yu is a layman after all, and he hasn't really experienced anything mysterious." There are some things that cannot be explained by modern science. However, you have a point, so before we enter the tomb, we must first understand the oxygen concentration inside. ”

"So if the oxygen concentration in it is too low, can you use an aeration pump to increase oxygen?" Yu Fei asked.

Ding Laosan replied: "This tomb exploration is not as good as caving, rashly adding oxygen to the tomb is likely to cause oxidation of the items inside, some ancient costumes, ancient books or wooden antiques, and even oxygen may turn into powder." So, if the oxygen concentration is too low, you have to wear an oxygen mask to go in. Of course, if you've learned the art of turtle breathing...... Hey. ”

"Turtle breath? I seem to have seen it in martial arts novels, is there really such a miracle in the world? ”

"I think the turtle breath technique should actually refer to holding your breath, and the Guinness World Record for holding your breath seems to be more than ten minutes. When I was in the army, we practiced, and I could hold it for up to 6 or 7 minutes. When it comes to his strengths, Luo Zi seems a little proud.

"The Turtle Breath Technique is not the same as holding the breath, the Turtle Breath Technique is a kind of superior qigong, if practiced, it can make people enter a state of suspended animation. One of the ascetic techniques of Tibetan Buddhism Tantra is to trap oneself in a dark and confined space, without eating or drinking. Practicing in it like an animal hibernates for months or even years. What they practiced should be the Turtle Breath Technique. Ye Lao said.

"How many years without eating or drinking? Is it still airtight inside? Wouldn't that have become a mummy! Yu Fei and Luo Zi thought it was completely incredible.

"Hehe, it's a mummy, it's just a living mummy." Ding Laosan said this quietly, which made Yu Fei and Luo Zi feel creepy.

"Haha, don't scare the two little brothers. In fact, there are many miraculous aspects of ancient Chinese superior qigong, but most of them have now been lost, so you will naturally find it difficult to understand. ”

At this time, Yu Fei thought of another question, and he asked Ye Lao: "What is the aura you have been mentioning?" According to my understanding, generally saying that so-and-so has a lot of aura means that he looks strong, and what you say doesn't seem to be the same concept as this. ”

Ye Lao replied, "Of course not. In the Taoist view, every mountain, water, stone, flower, grass and tree, thousands of birds and beasts, and even the vast earth and cosmic vacuum in this world have their own aura. Moreover, the aura between different objects can both influence and penetrate each other. Taoist cultivation is to practice refining and transforming qi, refining qi and transforming gods, practicing gods and returning to emptiness, and finally becoming immortals. The 'practice of qigong' that we often talk about is actually the process of practicing the essence and transformation of qi. ”

"Ahh How is this Taoist aura theory so similar to the modern physical magnetic field theory! Yu Fei said in surprise.

Ye Lao smiled: "Hehe, it's true, the aura mentioned by Taoism, if you look at it from the current point of view, it can also be said to be a magnetic field." In fact, in ancient times, Taoism's use of aura has even surpassed today's society. ”

"According to this, then the dragon vein, the five elements, and the soul locking array you mentioned, as well as the soul-fixing effect of jade, and other things that ordinary people can't understand, may actually be explained by this aura theory, but modern science has not yet studied this field." Yu Fei thought about it for a while, and seemed to understand a lot at once.

"Hehe, according to what Brother Yu said, the job we do is still a science." Ding Laosan said with a smile. However, Yu Fei's words made Ye Lao stunned, he didn't expect that Yu Fei would be able to grasp the essence of the aura theory so quickly. Perhaps even a top gold-touching veteran like Ding Laosan may have never seriously thought about whether there is some inevitable internal connection between these things. And it was only after these years of calming down that he slowly began to understand. Could it be that the young man in front of him is actually a genius of the world. Thinking like this, Ye Lao paid a little more attention to Yu Fei.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Fei and his entourage arrived in Renhua County, and the car did not enter Renhua County, but drove directly to a two-story house on the outskirts of the city. The owner of the house is a local, because the family moved to Renhua County to facilitate his son's study, and this house has been empty. Tomb robbing, after all, is an illegal business, therefore, in order to avoid exposing his whereabouts as much as possible, if Ding Laosan goes to dig graves and rob tombs in other places, he will rarely stay in local hotels, and generally either rent a private house, or simply go directly into the mountains to set up tents and camp.

After settling down, Yu Fei called the brute, and instead of following the army to Renhua County, they found a four-star business hotel in Shaoguan City to stay. Yu Fei thought that these two boys would enjoy it, but thinking that the original purpose of the two of them coming to Danxia Mountain was also to play, so they naturally had to live more comfortably.

In the evening, Ye Lao and Ding Laosan took the old ghost head and decided to go to the ancient tomb to explore the situation first, if there is no accident, everyone will enter the ancient tomb after tomorrow night.
