Chapter 69 Decision Sanxingdui 61 Sudden Change

I looked at the brass bells on the windless bronze tree in a daze, and then a creepy feeling instantly spread down my back, and goosebumps suddenly appeared on the back of my neck.

"What's going on?" I asked.

Boss Lu looked at me and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a small magic weapon, which was given to me by an old Taoist priest when I was in Chongqing before." ”

Zhang Hefang interjected at this time: "Although it was given by a Taoist priest, this is a magic weapon of the witch sect. ”

"That's right." Boss Lu nodded with a smile.

"Then why do these bells ring?" I asked.

Boss Lu said lightly: "The bell on this bronze tree has a certain spirituality, and the Taoist priest once said to me when he gave me this thing that the bell on this tree will make a deafening sound when it encounters a demon spirit, but when the wind blows, the copper bell on this bronze tree will not make any sound." ”

I didn't believe what Boss Lu said, so I said, "Can there be such a thing in this world?" ”

Boss Lu saw my suspicions, so he smiled and withdrew the piece of "mouth jade" from the base of the bronze tree, and sure enough, the copper bell on the bronze tree immediately stopped ringing. Then, Boss Lu brought the bronze tree to me and asked me to pluck those copper bells with my fingers.

I looked at the rusty bell and hesitated, but I still gently plucked it twice. Sure enough, the copper bells on the bronze tree did not make any sound.

"You should believe it this time." Boss Lu said.

"But why is that?" I never understood the principle of these strange things, so when I finally had the opportunity to face people like Boss Lu and Zhang Hefang, I couldn't wait to know how these things happened.

Boss Lu pointed to a copper bell on the bronze tree and said to me: "Although this tree is made of bronze, the copper bell on this bronze tree is not completely cast in bronze. You see, there are no copper bells on the branches and buds of this bronze tree, and that's because I have studied the previous copper bells. There are some small magnet-like black powder inside these bells, which will react to some changes in the magnetic field, and only then will the copper bells ring, otherwise, the copper bells will not make any sound. ”

"Magnetic field?"

"That's right," Zhang Hefang explained, "Nowadays, there are some scientific explanations for things like ghosts and feng shui, that is, ghosts exist to some extent similar to a certain magnetic field, which is why there are often problems with electrical circuits in places where there are often haunted events." ”

I nodded silently, but I was not convinced by this explanation, and I realized that in fact, even Zhang Hefang himself could not fully explain the principles of their witchcraft. Sometimes, they are just following the traditions handed down by the ancients, and they don't know why they are doing it, they just know that as long as they follow the ancients, they can achieve a certain effect. After thinking about it, I guess only that legendary witch sect can explain all this about witchcraft. So, I didn't continue to ask.

I asked again, "Boss Lu, what do you mean by what you just said?" ”

Boss Lu patiently explained to me: "Mouth jade is actually an object placed in the mouth of the dead, some poor people, often use a copper coin as a mouth, and for some princes and nobles, in order to reflect their status, they often use jade to make mouths. ”

I suddenly thought of the copper coin in my mother's mouth and the copper coin that Ryazan had been playing with in her hand before.

Boss Lu continued: "Judging by this jade type, there is nothing wrong with this piece of mouthed jade, but there are some strange words on it that I don't understand very well, but I believe that Brother Zhang should be able to understand something." ”

After speaking, Boss Lu handed the mouth jade to Zhang Hefang, and I noticed that Bu Jin instinctively wanted to rush forward to grab the mouth jade when he saw this, but fortunately, I was quick and stopped her.

Zhang Hefang also looked very excited when he got the mouth jade, he pressed it with his finger, then looked at it for a while and said, "This should be an ancient spell." ”

"What does the spell do?" I asked.

Zhang Hefang said: "There should be nothing wrong with the soul suppression spell, which is also more in line with the role of the mouth jade, that is, to prevent yang energy from entering the body and causing corpses, but ...... There seems to be some writing inside this mouthful jade......"

"That's right, I noticed that from the beginning." Boss Lu said: "I have carefully looked at this mouth jade, there are no gaps around it, but there is a hollow carving inside the mouth jade, which seems to be four lines of small characters, but it is still not clear yet." ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered something, so I reminded them: "By the way, there is one thing I have to tell you, this jade plaque, ah no, is the color of the mouth jade has been changing. ”

As soon as my words came out, Zhang Hefang and Boss Lu immediately turned their eyes to me and asked in unison, "What does this mean?" ”

I squinted my eyes and glanced at Bu Jin, seeing that she didn't react too much, so I boldly said: "That's right, when I first saw this piece of mouth-containing jade, it was pure white, without a trace of magazines. ”

Zhang Hefang raised his eyebrows, glanced at the mouth jade in his hand again, and said, "However, now it is emerald green." ”

I nodded, and told both of them my conjectures. I think that the color of this mouthpiece jade gradually changes in the process of constantly drawing spirits, that is, the more spirits this mouthmouth jade collects, the color will become greener and greener. After speaking, I glanced at Bu Jin again, wondering if she had any objections, who knows, she didn't react at anything, just stared at the mouth jade in Zhang Hefang's hand with a pair of eyes, as if she was afraid that Zhang Hefang would damage the mouth jade.

After listening to my explanation, Zhang Hefang frowned and said: "This situation is also possible, first, this piece of mouth jade can absorb many evil spirits, but if it is just a spirit extraction, then the jade holder is likely to be imprisoned in the evil spirits, so it will be engraved on the surface of the mouth jade to suppress the spirit, the purpose of which is likely to protect the jade holder." ”

Boss Lu followed and said: "I guess, if Mr. Fan's conjecture is true, then it is very likely that this mouth jade is also the spirit demon jade that you Nanwu said in his mouth." Then, it is very likely that this piece of mouth jade has not absorbed enough spirits so far, and when the color of mouth jade becomes darker and darker, the words in mouth jade will emerge. ”

"That means our mission is far from over." I said.

Zhang Hefang nodded and said, "It seems that this is indeed the case. ”

After speaking, Zhang Heyi honestly returned the mouth jade to Bu Jin, and Bu Jin took the mouth jade and couldn't wait to put it on his chest, and it seemed that he would never take it off again.

After leaving Zuishi Hall, Zhang Hefang and Bu Jin and I were silent for a long time.

I was the first to break the silence and asked, "Mr. Zhang, what should we do next?" ”

Zhang Hefang sat in the co-pilot seat in front of him, and said in a daze: "I have been old friends with Lu Lin for more than ten years, I know his eyesight, and he has never missed a beat, so I believe in his judgment, if he thinks that this piece of mouth jade should come from the Liangzhu civilization." ”

"So we should now go to the civilization of the North and the West?"

Zhang Hefang nodded and said, "Hongshan civilization, Sanxingdui civilization." ”

"Which one to go to first?" I asked.

Zhang Hefang replied: "We are now in Hubei, and, judging from the golden mask in the old man's cave in Shennongjia, we should go to the Sanxingdui civilization first. ”

"Ancient Shu Kingdom?" I asked.

"Yes," Zhang Hefang looked ahead and said, "This time, I will personally go out." ”

I was stunned, to be honest, I have never seen Zhang Hefang's skills with my own eyes.

We returned to Zhang Hefang's villa, and it was almost afternoon. Zhang Hefang said apologetically: "I've been discussing these issues non-stop, and I haven't even eaten, I'm really sorry, Mr. Fan, let's not think about it anymore tonight, after having a good meal, we'll make plans the next day, how about it?" ”

I nodded and said, "That's great, seriously, I'm going to blow up my head right now." ”

Zhang Hefang smiled and did not speak.

The black Audi sedan stopped at the door of the villa, and the three of us got out of the car. Zhang Hefang stepped on the lawn in the yard, suddenly stopped, glanced at the entrance of the basement with hesitant eyes, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and said fiercely: "Someone has been here." ”

After speaking, he took three steps and made two steps, and quickly walked into the basement, Bu Jin and I also walked over, and after taking two steps, we were surprised to find that a young man in a black suit fell to the ground, but he was not injured, and he looked like he was asleep.

Zhang Hefang was furious, stepped forward and kicked the man awake, and shouted, "What are you doing? ”

I was surprised, it was the first time I saw Zhang Hefang so angry. The man who was kicked awake looked sleepy-eyed, and while rubbing his eyes, he said, "Boss, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Hefang didn't care about him, snorted coldly, and walked straight to the room in the basement - it was empty, and there was no trace of Ryazan in sight.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Hefang pounded the wall with hatred, and said angrily: "Just like this, people will be lost!" ”

It was only then that the young man caught up and was so frightened at what was happening in front of him that he was speechless.

Zhang Hefang turned his head and grabbed the man's neck and pushed him against the wall, glared at him fiercely, his eyes flashed red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's really a wine bag and rice bag!" ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away, that is, three seconds, the man suddenly covered his neck with his hands, and countless disgusting maggots poured out of his mouth like a tide.
