Hades since ancient times, is the place where the coffin of the tomb owner is placed, the "Book of Burial" is written clearly, the Hades Hall is also known as Cining Hall, is the core part of the mausoleum, whether it is a joint burial or a single burial, the tomb owner should wear a large clothes, sleep in the coffin, and then cover the coffin outside, even if the body of the tomb owner can not be placed in the coffin for some reason, it will also put the tomb owner's clothing crown shoes in the coffin for burial.

In short, there can be no corpse, but the coffin is in the dormitory anyway, and the successive generations of Jinxiao Lieutenants have dismantled the mound door and poured it down, and they will never pour out the coffin, and the space of this robbery hole is limited, even if the coffin is not big, it is impossible to pour it out of the robbery hole.

My worldview has been subverted again, and I can't think of the name of it even if I think about it, can it be that the coffin of the tomb owner has become vapor and evaporated?

The three of them were all surprised, and the big golden tooth was lively, standing behind me and reminding: "Master Hu, look at this temple, in addition to the lack of a coffin, what else is wrong?" ”

With a wolf's eye, I carefully looked at the upper and lower side of the Hades Temple, not only did the Hades have no coffins, but there was nothing to say, the ground was empty, not to mention the burial goods, and there was not even a superfluous stone.

However, look at the scale and structure of this temple, they are all first-class Tang Dynasty princes' tombs, the building structure is round at the top, boxy at the bottom, see the edges and corners, smooth and neat, the shape on the top is like the roof of the yurt, it is dome-shaped, this is called the heaven round place, and the cosmology of the people at that time is exactly the same.

There are six stone frames on the ground of the temple, and these stone frames are empty, and nothing is placed on them, but the big gold tooth and I both know that they are the six kinds of jade that are used to worship the six directions, and they are only treated by members of the royal family.

The four walls of the temple are not nothing, only some murals with a foundation, all of which are painted in white, not yet colored, painted with the sun, moon and stars, and the main ones are thirteen palace maids. Some of these palace maids are holding brocade boxes, some are holding jade pots, and some are holding musical instruments, and the palace maids are all fat and fat, showing a picture scroll of court life in the Tang Dynasty.

All the frescoes were only underworked, not painted, and I had never seen such murals, so I asked the Great Gold Tooth about his decades of experience in drenching in antiques, and he might see what it meant.

The big golden tooth also shook his head again and again: "It's really strange, judging from this mural, this ancient tomb is definitely used to bury the most important people in the court, and it is also a woman, maybe it is a noble concubine or the eldest princess or something, but this mural is ......"

I was silent when I saw that the big gold tooth was halfway through speaking, and knowing that he was not sure what he could eat, I asked, "The mural is not finished?" Draw a beginning and stop? ”

Seeing that I said the same, the big golden tooth nodded and said, "Yes, this is unfinished, but this is too unconventional...... It's not unconventional, it's simply unreasonable. ”

Even if there is an accident in the palace, the tomb owner becomes a victim of political activities, or is given death with the intention of rebellion or something, most of them will not be publicized, and they will still be buried according to their treatment specifications after death. This kind of tomb must be worthy of the royal family, and the emperors also know that the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, and most of the inside stories in the palace and temples will not be passed out lightly, and it will be over if the one who should be killed is over, and then how to bury it and how to bury it.

I saw that I couldn't see anything famous here, so I took out a candle and lit it in the southeast corner of the temple, although the light of the candle was faint, but the flame was straight, and there was no sign that it would be extinguished.

In order to save energy, we only turned on a flashlight, fortunately there was nothing in the tomb, so we didn't have to worry about stepping on anything, and the three of us led two big white geese through the stone door of the underworld hall and came to the front hall.

In ancient China, the layout of the mausoleum attaches the most importance to the underworld, followed by the front hall. The arrangement of the front hall is called "death is like life" according to the tradition, and the previous dynasty has a system, which has been passed down until the end of the Qing Dynasty, but the difference is only the scale.

If the tomb owner lived in the court, the front hall must also be built like a real palace. Of course, except for the emperor Lao'er, the rest of the royal family can only keep an area in the front hall where he lived before his death, and it is impossible for every member of the royal family to build a palace in the mausoleum as it is.

Although the three of me and the big gold tooth fat man are all doing this, but in fact, we have not seen any authentic tombs, and today we also happened to come across such a place, if we really let us dig it, we will not move such a large tomb, at most it is to find a tomb of princes and nobles.

This is also because we don't have such a clever means, we can directly make a robbery hole and cut in from the void, and another reason is that we don't want to move such a big tomb, and anything that is poured out here can be earth-shattering, and the movement is too big, and it is easy to get into trouble.

Today is a coincidence, encountered a ready-made thief hole, to be able to enter this tomb, never expected that the underworld temple was empty, and the thief hole we came in was also inexplicably sealed, to the front hall to see just to find some clues, to find a way out.

As soon as the three of them entered the front hall, they were all shocked again, and they saw that the front hall was larger, but the pavilion and hall were only half built, and the project was stopped, and it has been until now.

The front hall is indeed built the same as the palace in ancient times, but some important parts have not been built, just roughly set up a shelf, the stone door in the underground palace has been sealed, the four walls are made of huge stone strips, the gaps are filled with iron juice, reinforced with iron bars of duck egg thickness. On the ground of the front hall of the underground palace, there is a small fountain pool, and the water is still bubbling in the spring.

I pointed to the fountain and said to the big golden tooth, "Look at this little fountain, this is the so-called coffin spring." In the tomb of Feng Shui, if there is such a spring, it is really superb. When I first looked at the feng shui of this ancient tomb outside, I felt that although it was a dragon vein, it had been eroded by wind and rain to break the shape of the mountain, and the original auspicious dragon had become a cheap dragon without protection. However, now it seems that the shape of shì here is a rare inner hidden eye, and there is a spring in the hole, and the water flow of this spring is always so big, it will not overflow, and it will not dry up, so this hole has the image of a vessel in feng shui. It originates from the sky, like the waves of water, and this kind of hidden eye is very suitable for burying women, and children and grandchildren will be blessed by it. ”

The big gold tooth said, "Oh, this is what we call a coffin? I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it, so it seems that the shape of this feng shui level is intact, which is even more strange, why is the work inside only half done? And the owner of the tomb is not in the collection? ”

I said, "Strange things happen every year, especially today. Even in the front hall, it is like this, it is not yet finished, it is really incomprehensible. ”

The fat man said: "I don't think it's strange, maybe it will catch up with the war at that time, or some expenses will be too large, and the finances will not be able to make ends meet, so the mausoleum of such a large project cannot be built." ”

I shook my head at the same time as the big golden tooth, and I said: "Absolutely not, the mausoleum has been repaired halfway and stopped working, and the location has been changed, which is very bad luck for the lord, and those who choose acupuncture points will be punished by the nine clans." First of all, there is absolutely no problem with this treasure cave from the perspective of feng shui, it is hidden but not exposed, it is difficult for tomb robbers to find, and it is also a rare hidden eye, it will not be because of another good place to give up this half-built mausoleum, nor can it be due to the disaster of war, in that case, the underground palace will not be sealed, there is nothing in it, it should not be to prevent touching gold and fighting. ”

The big golden tooth also agrees with me: "That's right, judging from the blockade of the tomb wall and the stone gate, after the stoppage, I didn't go in a hurry, but calmly closed the underground palace, and I don't plan to re-enter and start work in the future, otherwise just opening this stone gate is not a small project, and outside this stone gate, there are four other big stone gates of the same scale." ”

But why did the people who built this mausoleum abandon it? There should be some unavoidable reason, but we can't figure it out, and we really can't guess it.

It seems that the senior who built the fishbone temple as a camouflage and cut into the underworld temple with a thief hole was also deceived by an empty tomb like us. But his body was not found here, so perhaps he had already found his way out.

We had nothing to gain in the front hall, so we had to return according to the road, and finally go to the apse and the side hall of the two compartments to take a look, if there is still nothing to find, we can only go back to the thief hole, enter the labyrinthine Longling maze to find a way out.

The three of them talked as they walked, and they all felt that this tomb was strange and unusual, and there were too many unreasonable places. I said to them: "Since ancient times, there has been a doubt about the tomb, Cao Cao and Zhu Hongwu have used it, but this Tang Dynasty tomb is by no means a doubtful tomb, there is ...... here."

As I spoke, I had already walked back to the temple of Hades, and I had just finished speaking when I was suddenly interrupted by the fat man, and the big gold tooth also put his finger on his lips and made a silent gesture. When I looked up, I saw a "person" in the southeast corner of the temple, behind the shadow of the candle.

The shadow of the candle flickered in the corners of the temple, flickering in the corners of the walls, and a large, pale human face appeared at the edge of the lamp, and his body was hidden in the darkness beyond the range of the candle.

I and the big golden-toothed fat man stood at the stone gate connecting the front hall and the underworld, the underworld was very wide, and my wolf's eye flashlight could not shine there, because it was far away, it seemed that the face was blurry and indistinguishable, and the ghost was full of spirit.

When we first entered the temple, we had carefully and thoroughly looked at every corner of the temple, and there was nothing in the temple at that time, except for the unpainted paintings on the four walls, and the murals were painted with plump palace maids, and there was no such huge face.

The two sides confronted each other for a long time, the other party did not move, and the fat man lowered his voice and asked me: "Old Hu, I think the guy on the other side is not a good stubble, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's withdraw." ”

I also whispered to the fat man and the big gold tooth, "Don't act rashly, first find out if he is a human or a ghost." ”

I couldn't tell if the owner of the face across from me was a man or a woman, old or young. There is no coffin in this hall, and naturally there will be no zongzi, it is possible that the other party took advantage of us in the front hall to get in from the thief hole, this thief hole is not everyone dares to drill, maybe the other party is also a gold captain.

Thinking of Captain Touching Jin, I immediately thought of the senior who cultivated the Fishbone Temple, could it be ...... He's not dead yet? Or maybe he never found his way out and was trapped in the vicinity, and what we see now is his ghost?

If the ghost falls, it's not a big deal, we all have the Golden Buddha Jade Guanyin Protection, and if the other party really touches the Golden Captain, he and we have a bit of incense, maybe they can guide us out.

Regardless of whether the other party is a human or a ghost, we have to break this deadlock first, and it will not do us any good if it continues to be deadlocked. Thinking of this, I said loudly to the person in the southeast corner with a sleeve: "The black fold probe dragon lifts the treasure cover, moves the mountain and opens the hill with a hole in the sky, the star Luo suddenly opens, and the Beidou gathers the south light." ”

I said these words very politely, probably meaning that they are all mixed rice in the pot of touching gold, since they bumped together, there must be a first to come, we are later, we dare not plunder the beauty of people, it is convenient, this is walking.

As the saying goes, "three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion", these three hundred and sixty lines refer to the various livelihoods in the world, life in the world, must have a skill, in order to be based on the society, with the ability to earn food, do not have to worry about starving to death and freezing to death on the street. In addition to these three hundred and sixty lines, there are also eight other lines, which belong to another category, that is, they are not among the regular business students, and they do not belong to the genus of workers, peasants, soldiers, scholars, and businessmen.

The state has national laws, there are rules, and even the flower is governed by a beggar gang leader, and there are more confidential and mysterious rules for the inverted bucket, such as a tomb, after opening the mound, go in and touch the gold, and then come out, at most only allowed to go in once, come out once, and never allow a captain to touch the gold back and forth several times in a thief hole. After all, it's a resting place, not their own backyard. The list goes on and on.

One of them is that between peers and peers, two passers-by have their eyes on a mound and want to move the carapace, so whoever arrives first is counted as whom, and those who come later can also go in, but if there is anything, it should be selected by the person who goes first.

Because of the strict rules of the Golden Captain, unlike ordinary tomb robbers, a tomb only takes one or two things and stops, and the burial goods in the noble tombs are very rich, so there will not be much conflict between them.

A tomb only takes one or two things, the origin of this rule, one is to avoid doing too much work, and the fate cannot accommodate such a large pile of wealth, so as not to set yourself on fire; There is another important reason that no matter how many ancient tombs there are in the world, there is also a time when the excavation is completed, and you can't do things absolutely, and if you make a fortune, you have to leave a way for your peers to survive.

This is the biggest difference between the professional gold school captain and the tomb robbers, the tomb robbers often fight because of one or two bright weapons, flesh and blood fratricide abound, because they can rarely find the tomb, and they don't understand the stakes in it, they don't know that the bright weapon is the curse, and they will be retribution.

In fact, the military ranks such as lieutenant lieutenant of Zhonglang were set up by Cao Cao, but the name of touching gold and hair, as well as moving mountains and unloading ridges were all in the late Qin and early Han dynasties, and there were four inverted fighting sects that had existed in the world, but the disciples of these sects were secretive, and many people in the world did not know, and there was no record in the history books.

It has a set of special logos, incisions, and techniques, as long as you know the rules and terms, they are all the same door. Like this, a thief hole that cuts into the underworld hall from a void position can only be done by the master of the Golden Captain. I had learned some of this from my grandfather, and some of it had been from Shirley Young on the way back from the desert.

So I think since we are the same family, there is nothing difficult to discuss, of course, this is on the premise that the other party is still a living person, if it is a ghost and ghost, most of them will not turn their faces, and it is a big deal that we solemnly bury his body.

After I finished speaking, I waited for the other party to respond, in this case, if that person is also an expert in inverted fighting, I have given the other party enough faces, presumably he will not be unable to get along with us, even if it is the undead spirit of the golden captain who has been moving forward for decades, he should not embarrass us.

However, after waiting for a long time, the other party did not respond at all, the candle had already burned more than half, and the person in the southeast corner of the temple was still as indifferent as before, as if he had been carved in clay and stone.

I thought to myself that someone who is not in the industry could not understand my lips, so I repeated it again in the vernacular, but the other party still did not move.

Now we are all a little hairy, what we are most afraid of is this silent silence, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. If you want to leave the temple, you have to go to the entrance of the cave in the middle of the temple, but the face behind the lamp and shadow looks at us directly, not knowing what we want to do, and we are not sure of the other party's intentions, so we dare not rush over.

My mind turned, could it be that this is not the captain who touched the gold, but the master of this ancient tomb? That was a difficult thing to do, and shouted to the southeast corner of the temple, "Hey...... The one on the other side, where are you sacred, we just passed by here, and saw a thief hole, so we went in to visit, and we didn't think about it. ”

Seeing that the other party still didn't move, the fat man also became agitated, and shouted: "Where are we going back and forth from here, if you don't speak, we will acquiesce to you, don't regret it then......"

The big golden tooth whispered to us in the back: "I said Hu Ye Fat Master, isn't the character painted on the mural on the wall over there, let's not see it clearly?" The light of this candle is so shadowy that it is easy for me to see it. ”

When he said this, the two of us were even more uncertain, and we doubted our memory for a while. Damn, if that's the case, then we'll have a big face, and we've almost scared myself to death in the past few minutes, but it's really not like a painting.

This temple of the underworld, including the entire ancient tomb, is very evil, we just entered the temple of the underworld and really didn't find anything, but when we entered the cave of thieves, didn't there be no boulders on the way? It's hard to guarantee that something won't suddenly appear out of thin air in this temple, is it a human, a ghost, a demon, or as the big gold tooth guessed, it is a painting on the tomb wall?

Seeing that the candles on the ground were about to burn to the end, and we couldn't burn them any longer, I secretly pulled out my paratrooper knife in my hand. This kind of knife was imported into China by Russia, and it is specially used to cut ropes, for example, after parachuting troops, parachutes are hung on trees, and people are suspended in mid-air, and they can use this special knife to cut parachute ropes. This knife is very short and strong, with a long handle and a short blade, which is very sharp and easy to carry on the body. I didn't dare to bring a dagger with us when we came to Shaanxi this time, so we brought a few short paratrooper knives with us to defend ourselves.

I held the golden Buddha in my other hand, glanced at the fat man and the big gold tooth, and went over together to see what the other party was, and the fat man also pulled out the sapper shovel and handed the two big white geese to the big gold tooth to lead.

The three of them formed an inverted triangle formation, and the fat man and I were in front, with big gold teeth leading the goose, holding a flashlight behind, and slowly walking towards the candle in the southeast corner.

Every step I took was holding the paratrooper knife in my hand there was a little more cold sweat, at this time I couldn't tell whether I was scared or nervous, I even expected the other party to be a zongzi, jumping out and fighting with me happily, so silently standing in a dark corner, more damn than a hairy zongzi.

Just as the person on the other side was about to enter the illumination range of our wolf's eye flashlight, the candle on the ground burned to the end, and a wisp of green smoke went out.

As the candle went out, the face behind the lamp immediately disappeared into darkness.
