Chapter 36: The Bloody Grave
When I heard this, my heart jumped wildly, in fact, I really wanted to go in and see her, but I didn't want her to see her now, so I waved my hand and said, "Forget it! It's too late, she must have rested, so I won't go in and bother. ”
Professor Dong nodded and asked me, "Where are you going?" ”
"I feel too stuffy in the ward and want to go out for a walk."
"I just want to go out for a walk, let's go for a walk!"
I followed Professor Dong to the garden of the hospital, because it was almost twelve o'clock, and the garden was already empty, Professor Dong, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and asked me: "Brother Xiaoyu, you said this morning that what happened to Xiaodan may be related to the ancient tomb in Loess Ridge, did you find anything?" ”
I didn't expect him to ask about it all of a sudden, but it was a discovery, and it was a big discovery, but the problem was that I couldn't say it. I had to smile and say, "Hehe, I just said it in passing, how can I find anything!" ”
Unexpectedly, Professor Dong shook his head and said with a serious expression: "When your classmates sent you to the hospital just now, I overheard a conversation between you, and one of them mentioned the ghost in Loess Ridge, what happened?" ”
My head suddenly "buzzed" and it was damn bad! It must be the guy Maizi, who always doesn't pay attention when he speaks, and actually let Dong Xiaodan's father hear it.
I didn't know how much he had heard, so I didn't know what to say.
Seeing that I was hesitant, Professor Dong said, "You can rest assured, no matter what it is, I will never say it!" I just want to know what happened to Xiao Dan, I must not put my daughter in danger again! ”
I looked up at him, but with a sincere face, I thought for a while, and asked, "You promise not to say it?" ”
He nodded: "I promise!" ”
I sighed again: "Well, if you really say it, I can't help it." Still, you have to believe that I'm not doing anything bad! ”
"What the hell is going on?" He asked eagerly.
I told him everything about the robbery of the Loess Ridge, including the reason why I was injured tonight. After listening to this, he frowned, and after pondering for a long time, he spoke: "I really didn't expect that someone would be so bold as to dare to rob this tomb. ”
I chimed in: "It's not just bold, it's just bold, I went at nine o'clock, and it almost killed me." ”
Professor Dong waved his hand: "I'm not talking about this, but that this tomb is easy to steal." ”
I was slightly stunned: "Why?" ”
"It's been more than 30 years since this tomb was discovered. But did you know that Weishenme has never excavated? Professor Dong asked me rhetorically.
"Are you afraid that the cultural relics inside will oxidize?"
He shook his head: "With the current jishu, it is possible to do anaerobic excavation. So as to ensure that the cultural relics inside are not oxidized. ”
"And what about Weishenme not digging?" I asked, puzzled.
"That's because there's something very evil in this tomb. More than 30 years ago, when a worker was working at the bottom of the mountain, he accidentally found an arched passage, and at first thought it was an air-raid shelter left over from the war, but he found that at the end of this passage there was a large closed iron gate, and a golden dragon was carved on the iron gate, which looked like something ancient. After expert analysis, it was determined that this was an ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty, so the cultural relics department at that time immediately organized an expedition team to enter the interior of the tomb for investigation. After the expedition team entered, they found that the ancient tomb seemed to be divided into two layers, and just as they were thinking about how to enter the inner layer of the tomb to continue their investigation, they encountered an accident. ”
"What contingency?"
"The expedition team was attacked by evil creatures inside, and hastily withdrew, and when they came out, two of the seven expedition members died not long after, and four others mutated after a few days in the hospital."
"Mutation!?" I was taken aback.
Professor Dong nodded: "Their physique has gradually become stronger, and there are fangs growing from the corners of their mouths, and the most important thing is that they like to eat the blood of living people!" ”
I suddenly understood: "Could it be that they have been poisoned by corpses and become zombies!?" ”
"That's right! After the incident subsided and resulted in the tragic deaths of more than a dozen medical personnel and military police, the authorities decided to permanently seal the tomb and not excavate it again. ”
"And what exactly did they get attacked inside?" I asked curiously.
Professor Dong did not answer me directly, but said, "After I heard you mention this ancient tomb this morning, I went to find someone. ”
"Who?"
"The only survivor of that zombie incident was also the captain of that expedition. He's retired now, and I asked him about it, and he told me everything. ”
"What the hell was attacking them?" I hurriedly asked.
Professor Dong glanced at me and said word by word, "It's a bloody corpse!" ”
"What...... What the! Blood corpses!? I gasped.
Huang Yixian once said that the blood corpse is one of the eighteen kinds of corpse transformation, it is a very powerful evil thing, it moves quickly, has strong attack power, and ordinary evil objects often cannot subdue it, and it is extremely difficult to deal with.
However, the blood corpse needs extremely harsh conditions to form, the tomb of the bloody corpse, also known as the blood corpse tomb, the soil layer of this tomb contains a large amount of cinnabar, cinnabar has the effect of driving away evil spirits, can protect the environment in the tomb from the outside evil intrusion, but at the same time, it will also cause the yin qi in the tomb can not be dissipated, after many years, it is possible to form a blood corpse. However, under natural conditions, the soil layer generally does not contain a large amount of cinnabar, so the formation of blood corpse tombs is often caused by the tomb owner setting a cinnabar roof on the outer layer of the tomb.
The setting of cinnabar tops in tombs originally originated from Taoism, the ultimate goal of monks is to seek immortality, they believe that death is another continuation of life, as long as the soul does not disperse, you can continue to practice, and eventually become immortals, so they set up cinnabar tops in the tombs, in order to lock the soul in the tomb. However, it was later discovered that tombs with cinnabar roofs were set up, and under certain conditions, bloody corpses could form. Therefore, some princely tombs will specially set up cinnabar roofs to raise blood corpses, the reason why they do this, on the one hand, is also to seek longevity, on the other hand, is to use the blood corpse to take care of the burial goods in the tomb, so there is a saying of "blood corpse treasure" in ancient times.
However, there are also certain side effects of setting up cinnabar roofs, because after setting up cinnabar roofs, it is equivalent to artificially destroying the feng shui aura of the tomb, which may affect the life of future generations, and those corpses that eventually become bloody corpses cannot be dead burials, they must be buried by living people! Therefore, in ancient times, except for the tombs of princes and generals and some people in the Daomen, few people would set up cinnabar roofs.
In addition to setting up the cinnabar roof will form a bloody corpse, there is also a situation where a bloody corpse may be formed, that is, some feng shui treasures, because there is a steady stream of earth yin aura into the tomb, under certain conditions, the corpse may also slowly undergo corpse transformation, zuihou into a bloody corpse or zombie.
And the Loess Ridge is located in the city, and now it has already become a lonely ridge, obviously it will not be a big dragon vein, so if there is a blood corpse in it, it must not be formed under natural conditions, but the tomb owner set up a cinnabar roof, so why did he do this?
I thought about it for a while before I asked, "What is the origin of the owner of this tomb?" ”
Professor Dong replied: "The owner of this tomb is surnamed Shao Mingyuanjie, originally a Taoist priest of the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain, Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty was called into Beijing for three years, specifically in charge of prayers, because of the fulfillment of the rain, won the Jiajing Emperor's respect, later, the Jiajing Emperor advocated Taoism, respected the ghosts and gods, bent on cultivating the Xuan, praying for longevity, and the favor of Shao Yuanjie became more and more day by day, not only for Shao Yuanjie in the western suburbs of the capital to build a real mansion, but also awarded it as the Ministry of Rites, to the civil officials of a good service. After his death, he was also awarded the title of Great Uncle, and he was called 'Wenkang Rongjing'. ”
"What? Let a Taoist priest be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites? This emperor must be dizzy! ”
"Emperor Jiajing was the most Taoist emperor in Chinese history, so it is not surprising that a Taoist priest should be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites."
"If it's a Taoist priest, it's normal to set up a cinnabar top, but why does he want to raise a blood corpse? Could it be that there is any treasure in this tomb that needs to be cared for? "I'm a little puzzled, because raising blood corpses has always been despised by the righteous path, so even if the later Taoist tombs were set up with cinnabar roofs, some special measures would be taken to prevent the formation of blood corpses.
Professor Dong frowned and said, "If you want to say baby, it's indeed possible!" At that time, Shao Yuanjie instigated Emperor Jiajing to build Taoist temples and conduct religious ceremonies all over the country, which consumed a lot of financial and material resources and caused the treasury to be empty. Shao Yuanjie took the opportunity to enrich his pockets and looted a lot of money. But after his death, the huge amount of money looted was missing. There has always been a view in the historiography that that huge wealth became his funeral goods. ”
"How many are there?" I asked curiously.
Professor Dong smiled and said, "Hehe, I guess I have to pull several cars!" ”
"No wonder those guys dug such a big hole, it turned out to be to transport all the treasures in the tomb!" It dawned on me.
At the mention of the tomb robbers, Professor Dong's expression immediately became serious again, and he said, "Brother Xiaoyu, you have provided a very valuable clue. Now there are several things, we must find out as soon as possible, one is whether the burial goods in the tomb have been stolen, and the other is whether the evil in Xiaodan has anything to do with this tomb. ”
