Wuxia Coffin Mountain Chapter 19 The Hermit's Coffin (I)

Shirley Yang poured the liquor on my shoulder again, I suddenly sweated on my forehead in pain, and I wanted to scream, but at the moment when I opened my mouth, I suddenly found that there was an extra "person" at the end of the wooden beam, and the "pain" that came to my mouth was swallowed back, and I hurriedly raised the "wolf eye" to shine behind Professor Sun.

The place where the black beam hangs after falling down the deep stream, is between two cliffs full of wet tires and ancient vines, the space is extremely narrow, you can see a faint and faint line of white light upwards, no less than a thousand miles high, and down is the black and vast light smoke and mist, listen to the sound of the rushing water, it seems to be still a few hundred meters deep under the feet, this area is not up to the sky, not down to the ground, after the human eyes adapt, I feel that the light around me is not black, it is not bright, from where I am, just after I can see the cliff and the ancient vines, there is a long-haired old man sitting upright, but only its shape, It is not clear to see until you get up close.

Seeing that we were staring at him intently, Professor Sun quickly looked back, and also saw that there seemed to be someone hiding in the gap of the cliff, so he was taken aback, and hurriedly covered the wound on his head and retreated.

The fat man at the other end of the wooden beam noticed this situation, and pulled out the "Lianzhu Quick Crossbow" to shoot, I quickly raised my hand to ask him to stop: "Don't do it, it seems to be just a dead man, I don't know if it's the head of the Feng, wait for me to go over and take a look." ”

This time, everyone no longer dared to gather on the black beam, spread out from each other, try to make the wooden beam evenly stressed, I wrapped the wound, touched the black donkey's hooves in the bag, sideways around Professor Sun, to the wall to explore the sappers shovel to open the vine, only to see a hanging coffin hidden in the rock crevice, the coffin is ancient pine wood, the pine bark is like layers of dragon scale waves.

The lid of the hanging coffin was opened, and the corpse in the coffin sat up, its eye sockets were deep, and its skin and flesh were dry and yellow, but the ancient corpse was still radiant, with a string of thorns on it, with a thorn bundle as the crown, wearing a wide gray robe, holding a long-handled bronze ancient sword with ancient patterns, eyebrows and beards were all white, and the long hair fluttered slightly.

The old man in the coffin may have been dead for thousands of years, but in the "Coffin Gorge", a good place where the wind is hidden, he is still as vivid as a living person, and his clothes and appearance are still immortal.

I held the "wolf eye", took a few photos of the ancient corpse that sat up from the coffin, I had never seen the "zongzi" of the fairy wind bones before, and I was shocked and suspicious of what I saw, only to hear Sun Jiuye behind me say: "This hanging coffin tomb is not ordinary, I am afraid that it is an ancient hermit's burial place!" ”

Although I saw the ancient corpse immortal wind bones, I was a little skeptical of Professor Sun's words, and with my eye of "touching Captain Jin", it was difficult to immediately identify the identity of the ancient corpse, and how could he assert that he was an "ancient hermit"? It was simply a subjective conjecture born from "lack of knowledge, superstition, and wishful thinking", so I asked him how he could see it?

Sun Jiuye stiffened his face and said, "When did you see me talking nonsense?" Isn't this clear - the pine bark is the coffin, the thorn vine is the crown, this is the burial system of the hermit in ancient times, there is a clear record in the history books, it will definitely not be wrong. ”

The cliff burial hanging coffin of Bashu, are all made by the ancients, most of them have a history of thousands of years, according to the records of the past dynasties, in addition to the Cubans, there are many hermits who cultivate immortals and seek Taoism, they have a soft spot for the hanging coffin burial, they are buried on the cliff of the deep valley of the deep gorge after dying, take the ancient pine as the coffin, the burial goods are very simple, there are only some "bamboo slips, tortoise shells, copper swords" things, most of them are the simple "Ming vessels" that even the ancient tomb robbers can not look down on, in the gorge area not far from Wushan, there are place names such as "Bingshu Gorge, Baojian Gorge", It is named after the Ming weapon found in the hanging coffin, but what is the so-called "war book and sword"? There is no place to verify it now.

We have seen a large number of densely packed hanging coffins in the "Coffin Gorge", all of which are rock pile type, that is, several holes in the cliff, and then insert wooden stakes, and put the coffin on it, and the "hermit" hanging coffin below the Golden Swallow Cave is hidden in the rock gap, using the natural narrow cave on the cliff, in which it is difficult for people to stand, and the ancient corpse sitting up in the coffin has almost touched the rock on the top.

Professor Sun saw that the hanging coffin tomb was natural, and he was even more convinced of his own judgment, even if this ancient corpse was not a person who lived in seclusion, most of them were masters who knew the Hetuluo book and understood the subtleties of heaven and earth, but unfortunately this tomb had been stolen, otherwise how could the corpse in the coffin sit up on its own? It must have been pulled from the coffin by the tomb robbers with a noose.

The fat man was impatient to listen to Professor Sun's talk about "hermits", and he couldn't help but ask me while lying on the wooden beam: "Old Hu, is there a bright vessel in the coffin?" Can we bring back some souvenirs? ”

I took a flashlight to push away the ancient vines, and poked half of my body into the tomb in the rock crevice, and looked up and down, left and right, in addition to "a corpse, a coffin, a sword", there were also some terracotta fragments, and the rock wall was engraved with several simple patterns of the Big Dipper, and it could be seen that the tomb owner was likely to be familiar with "astronomy, metaphysics" and other foreign arts during his lifetime.

I took a closer look at the pine coffin, the coffin lid was lifted aside, and it was more severely damaged, and the ancient corpse sitting in the coffin had a rope hanging from its neck, and it was indeed patronized by the tomb robbers, these things were all expected by Sun Jiuye, after I saw it, I had to admire his eyesight, and turned to the people on the wooden beam and said: "The coffin has obviously been stolen a long time ago, and I see that the technique of the inverted bucket is very professional, and it should be done by experts." After speaking, I tried to pull out the bronze ancient sword held in the arms of the ancient corpse, and the sword did not move in the sheath, as if the deceased still had knowledge, and after thousands of years, he still refused to let go of the bronze sword that accompanied the burial.

I came to the coffin gorge for something, and I was not interested in the bronze ancient sword, but I was a little curious why the thief who stole the hanging coffin did not take the bronze sword away? Could it be that they stole something more important in the first place? I was suspicious for a while, and I wanted to try whether the ancient corpse was stiff and dry, so that I could have a specific understanding of the feng shui dragon qi in the coffin gorge, so I put on gloves at the moment and wanted to gently put the corpse of this fairy wind bone back into the coffin, but it turned out to be a touch and fell, and the body was not stiff at all.

Sun Jiuye asked puzzledly, "Hu Bayi, what are you doing with that ancient corpse?" Just take a look, don't move, there won't be any funeral goods in the coffin that you can see, go back and report this discovery, your credit is not small. ”
