Chapter Seventy-Two: Quicksand Tomb, Burying the Heroic Soul

Pushing back so many disgusting insects with the sound of the flute was something Ren Tanyu hadn't expected, but he knew that the road behind the road would become more and more difficult to walk, but since he was here, he had to go on hard no matter what!

After the insects receded, he carefully opened a door, a coffin with red paint, there must be treasures inside, and Ren Tanyu's eyes lit up instantly.

Just when he was about to walk over, he found a few Luoyang shovels and other things thrown next to the coffin, could it be that tomb robbers had come here before, but how could their things have been thrown here? And the coffin doesn't seem to have been touched.

Seeing this scene, he somewhat understood, there must be a mechanism next to this coffin, but he denied it, even if there is a mechanism, a few bones should be left in total. Like the bones outside the gate.

It should have been another flap, so that the bones of the grave robbers were buried under the copy. Thinking of this, he slowly tapped the ground in front of him with the pathfinder shovel. In this way, even if there is a mechanism, there is no problem. But what he didn't expect was that when he walked to the Luoyang shovel that others had thrown, he didn't know that the road exploration shovel knocked on the brick, and suddenly it was like the sky was cracking, and after the sound, he didn't know what was under the road from above, like soil and sand, and there was wolf smoke for a while.

Ren Tan was choked and retreated, and the scene in front of him seemed to have suddenly fallen into a large desert, and as far as the eye could see, it was all yellow sand. I can't see the tempting coffin anymore. Originally, Ren Tanyu was still curious to see what good things were in there. As a result, it was separated by this inexplicable sand.

In order to test the power of the quicksand, he took out an unused object from his backpack and put it on the quicksand, only to be submerged by the flowing sand as soon as the quicksand was next to it. He still didn't give up, so he picked up the Luoyang shovel thrown by others next to him, and then put it on the quicksand that fell from the sky. No matter how long the handle of this Luoyang shovel is, there is no trace of the quicksand when it is just next to the quicksand.

No wonder those tomb robbers are gone, it turns out that they have been swallowed up by these quicksands. Ren Tanyu patted his chest, fortunately he had foresight, otherwise he would have ended up like them. There will always be a time when this quicksand will run out, so he will wait by now, and he will not believe that the quicksand will continue to flow.

But in the end, he was very sad to find that these quicksands were really flowing all the time, like endless. After the last moment, he gritted his teeth and forgot it. Anyway, I'm not here to rob the tomb, it's the same whether I look at those things or not. So he slowly retreated unwillingly.

Thinking about the purpose of his coming, he was a little dumbfounded, he just saw the person he saw in the car when he just entered the cemetery, and the inexplicable middle-aged man, and there were no other clues, where to find this!

Looking at the quicksand that was rolling like flowing water, Ren Tanyu thought about it for a long time. In the end, I had to return to the gate when I came, and when I looked at the stone lion, I couldn't help but feel moved. So he cautiously walked up to the stone lion, and then circled the stone lion twice. After the most reluctant, he put his hands on the stone lion's legs and turned vigorously.

Only a few "crackling" sounds were heard, and another floor sank into the open space at the gate. Then what appeared to be a staircase-like path emerged. This was really unexpected, so he walked down the stairs carefully, carefully preparing for the accident that could happen at any time.

Fortunately, he was too worried, and when he came to the end, he didn't encounter any other mechanisms. It was only at the end of the stairs below that he saw a staircase going up to the wall. I really don't understand what these ancients are doing, so Ren Tanyu walked down the stairs to the top of the stairs, and when he walked out of the stairs, he found that all around him were sand flowing down the sand and soil.

Looking at the big red coffin I saw just now, I couldn't help but feel excited. I was thinking of giving up, but I didn't expect that on a whim, I turned a lion indiscriminately and cracked the last mechanism of this tomb.

So he walked slowly to the coffin with excitement, and to be honest, he was not too afraid, and he had seen the coffin and even the dead more than once, so he calmly pushed the heavy lid of the coffin. But he tried a lot of effort but still didn't push a bit, he suddenly remembered the coffin in the ancient tomb under the river behind Xiaoli Village at the foot of Wudang Mountain, and couldn't help but take back the hand that stretched out, he didn't want to be hurt by any mechanism again, after all, he was alone here, in case he was hurt, and there was no one who took care of each other.

After thinking for a while, he took off the Dream Soul Knife on his wrist, and then used the tip of the knife to pry open a crack in the coffin, so he quickly stuffed the pathfinder shovel into the gap that was pried open, and then Ren Tanyu took a few steps back, and pressed the back end of the pathfinder shovel with his hand, only to hear a squeak, and the big red coffin was pried open with a big gap

Seeing that it worked, Ren Tanyu used the shovel diagonally to exert force again, and because the force was a little great this time, the coffin lid was suddenly pried off the ground by him.

Ren Tanyu walked to the coffin very curiously, because he was still a child and not very tall, so he could only lie on the edge of the coffin and look inside.

The scene inside really disappointed him, because he saw that there was nothing at the bottom of the coffin except a complete human skeleton, what the hell was going on? Looking at the scale of the construction of this tomb and such a large project, it must be that the owner of the tomb is not a person without money.

Curiosity is curiosity, but after curiosity, he still has to do his own business, and there is nothing to see here, so he is ready to close the coffin lid and return the same way.

At this moment, Ren Tan didn't know that a bead fell from under the skull of the corpse inside the coffin, and it was glowing pink. For a moment, the inside of the dark coffin was full of red light, and the scenery was like the rising sun reflecting on the earth.

Originally, Ren Tanyu had already closed the lid of the coffin. , but he saw this extremely strange scene out of the corner of his eye. The vivid red kept pouring out from the cracks in the coffin, as if nothing thick could hide its light.

When he looked back, Ren Tanyu's mouth opened wide in shock by this red light, and he never dreamed that there would be missing treasures in what he had seen. So he hurried back and opened the lid of the coffin that had been covered earlier.

The moment Ren Tan opened the lid, the red beads flew out of the coffin with a whizz and pierced into the billowing quicksand. The strange thing is that the falling yellow sand, which was originally yellow, has now turned pink, and it looks like a flowing curtain.

"You are so daring, you dare to run here to spread wild?" Suddenly, a loud voice sounded in Ren Tanyu's ears.

"Grandpa, is it you, grandpa? How did you end up here? ”

Ren Tanyu never dreamed that he would hear his grandfather's voice here, and it was still in this ancient tomb.

"Boy, who's your grandfather! You dug my grave, and I let you have no return! Ren Tanyu was still excited, but he didn't want his grandfather's voice to say such things. In an instant, the fire of excitement in his heart was extinguished.

"Who the hell are you, why don't you dare to look at people with your true face, I will dig your grave, what can you do to me?" I don't know where the strength of Lu Dao Ren Tan came from, knowing that the other party of Lu Dao is an uncertain existence, but he just works against him. Ren Tanyu, who has always been cautious in doing things, estimates that he will really be in danger this time.

"I am Chen Shu, why did you come to my tomb?"

In Ren Tanyu's memory, his grandfather once told him the story of Chen Luan's ancestor, but didn't Chen Tuan become an immortal later? So why did he have a tomb here?

At this point in the book, it is necessary for us to introduce the deeds of "Chen Tuan Ancestor" and Wudang Mountain.

Chen Tuo, the word Tu Nan, the number Fu Shaozi, the name Mr. Xiyi. Han nationality, born in Chongyan County, Xishu (now Chongyan Town, Tongnan County, Chongqing), according to the records of Taoists, was born on October 10 of the 12th year of Xiantong of Tang Yizong (871), and was feathered on July 22 of the second year of Duangong of Taizong of the Song Dynasty (989), at the age of 118. Five dynasties of the early Song Dynasty famous Taoist scholars, hermits. Hidden in the nine chambers of Wudang Mountain, and then moved to Huashan Yuntai view, many writings. Chen Tuan is a legendary grandmaster in traditional mystical culture.

Legend has it that he was five years old and could not speak, and was known as the "dumb child". One day, he was playing by the water and met a woman in Tsing Yi, who called herself a hairy girl. The hairy girl carried Chen Tuan to the hidden mountain and fed a few mouthfuls of elixir jade liquid (a word of milk), Chen Chuan opened his mind and spoke. Mao Nu threw a book into his arms and gave him a poem:

The medicine seedlings are not satisfied, and they are even more dangerous.

Looking back at the way back, the phase will enter the green smoke.

Chen Tuan couldn't speak, but when he returned home that day, he suddenly read these four lines of poetry, and his parents were taken aback, and hurriedly asked where they heard it, Chen Tuan said that it was taught by Mao Nu, and took out the book, which turned out to be "Zhou Yi".

Chen Kuan reads the Book of Changes well, and he can't release the scroll. He cultivated all his life, compiled the eighty-one chapters of the "Guiding Mystery Chapter" with the main content of guiding and returning the Dan, and devoted himself to the way of guidance. He further developed the Taoist cultivation method, created a series of schemas such as "Wuji Diagram", and explored the origin of life with the theoretical system of "obeying to give birth to people" and "reversing the pill against the Dan", and looked for a way to prolong life, so he was respected as "Chen Tuan Ancestor" by later generations of Taoists.

Chen Tuan is familiar with gossip, and since then he has no books to read, and he has the ambition to be born. When he was eighteen years old, his parents died, so he left his family wealth and lived in seclusion in the mountains. Later, I dreamed that Mao Nu taught him the Dafa of refining the form and returning to the qi, refining the qi to return to the gods, and refining the gods to return to the void, so he obeyed the order.

The scholars came from thousands of miles away, but Chen Tuan lay on his side and ignored it. When everyone saw that he was snoring like thunder, they all sighed and left.

Later, Emperor Mingzong of the Tang Dynasty heard about his high name, and sent an envoy to send him out of the mountain with an edict. Chen Tuan did not disobey the holy decree, so he had to come to Luoyang to see the Son of Heaven. Seeing the Son of Heaven, Chen Tuan did not worship, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu was shocked, but Mingzong was not surprised, and sighed, "Gao Shi does not need to be treated with regular courtesy." He sent him to the Lixian Hotel and took care of him. Chen Tuan was useless, and only meditated on the futon in the morning and evening. Mingzong drove the Xinglixian Hotel five times, and sometimes it happened to be when he was sleeping, and he didn't dare to alarm him, so he went back. Mingzong knew that he was a stranger, and he respected him more and more, and wanted him to hold an important position, but Chen Tuan did not agree at all. Prime Minister Feng Dao suggested to Mingzong: "At the moment when the wind and snow are combined, Chen Tuan is sitting alone on a futon, and it will inevitably be cold. His Majesty can send a messenger to bring a jar of wine, and then select three beauties to send him wine to warm his feet. If he drinks wine and asks for beautiful women, he doesn't have to worry that he won't accept the official! Mingzong nodded yes, selected three young girls from the palace, and sent them with wine, "Mr. Wang, don't shirk." Chen Jian happily accepted it, opened a cup and drank freely, and did not shirk the beauties who were sent. Mingzong saw Longyan Darun. The next day, Feng was sent to be crowned an official, but he saw three beauties in the room, and Chen Jian was nowhere to be seen. Feng asked, "Where is Mr. Chen?" The beauty said: "Mr. Chen fell asleep after drinking, and woke up at the fifth watch, he said that we had a hard night and had nothing to give, so he put forward a poem, let us reply to the Son of Heaven, and then drifted out of the house." Feng had no choice but to lead the three beauties back to the court. When Mingzong looked at it, the poem read:

Snow is the body and jade is the gills, thank you for sending it.

The priest did not dream of Wuxia, and the goddess was annoyed to go down to the balcony.

Mingzong read the poem, sighed, and sent people to look around, but there was no news.

Chen Shu left Kyoto and went to Wudang Mountain in Junzhou to live in seclusion. One day, five old men came to ask him about Zhou Yi's gossip, and Chen Tuan taught them to listen. Because he saw that their faces were like jade, he asked for a way to teach them. The five elders passed on the hibernation method to him. It turns out that the dormant method is to imitate the method of animals such as turtles and snakes in winter, that is, they are dormant and do not eat. More than 20 years have passed in a blink of an eye, and one day, the five elders said to Chen Quan: "We are the five dragons in the Sun and Moon Pool, and we are willing to give Mr. a good place because of the teachings of Mr. So he ordered Chen Chuan to close his eyes, clamp him under his wings, and fly up. Chen Tuan only felt that his feet were in the air, the wind was whistling in his ears, and in an instant, he followed the ground, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the five elders were gone, and he fell on the Jiushi Rock in Xiyue Huashan, and Chen Tuan lived in seclusion.

Seeing that there was no boiler in his residence, the Taoist priest of Huashan was very strange, and secretly observed, seeing that he had nothing to do all day long, only snoring. Once, the Taoist priest did not see him for several months, thinking that he had moved somewhere else, and came to the firewood room to carry firewood, but saw him sleeping under the firewood and grass.

On another occasion, a woodcutter was mowing grass at the bottom of the mountain, and saw a corpse in the hollow of the mountain, and the dust was an inch high. The woodcutter had pity in his heart and prepared to dig a pit and bury it. When he dragged it up, he recognized Mr. Chen, and the woodcutter said: "What a Mr. Chen Chuan, I don't know why he died here?" I saw Chen Jian stretch his waist, open his eyes, and said, "I'm sleeping happily, why did you wake me up?" The woodcutter laughed.

Wang Kui, the commander of Huayin County, personally came to Huashan to ask to see Chen Tuan. To nine

Stone rock, a stone that sees the light, there is no half of the hut. So he asked him, "Where does the gentleman live?" Chen Tuan smiled and said casually:

The high place of Pengshan is my palace, and it is out of the Lingxu across the dawn wind.

Therefore, the gold is not locked, and there is a white cloud seal when it comes.

Wang Kui wanted to cut down wood and build a nunnery for him, but Chen Kui resolutely refused.

Later, these four lines of poetry reached the ears of Zhou Shizong, and he knew that Chen Shu was a master, so he specially summoned him and asked him about the length of the country's fortunes. Chen Shu chanted four more lines of poetry:

Good piece of wood, lush and unraced.

If you want to last a long time, add a treasure cover.

Emperor Sejong's surname is Chai, his name is honorable, the wood is luxuriant, and he is in the name, and there is the word "long-lasting", thinking that it is a good omen, but he does not know that Zhao Taizu is the emperor of Zhou, the country name is Song, and "wood" has added a "Song" character. The Song Dynasty enjoyed the country for a long time, and Chen Tuan already knew the Tao in advance. Sejong wanted to confer the best title on Chen Tuan, but Chen Tuan was unwilling to accept it and resolutely asked to return to the mountain.

During the Chenqiao mutiny, Zhao Taizu put on a yellow robe and ascended the throne, and Mr. happened to take a donkey to Huayin County, heard about it, and clapped his hands on the back of the donkey and laughed. Someone asked, "What is the gentleman laughing at?" The gentleman said, "The good fortune of you people has come!" The world is finally at peace. ”

One day, Chen Tuan was drinking at the Chang'an Hotel, and met Zhao Kuangyin's brothers and Zhao Jin who were also drinking. Chen Jian saw Zhao Jin sitting above Er Zhao, so he pulled him to the lower seat and said, "You are just a little star in the Purple Altar, how dare you occupy the top position?" Zhao Kuangyin then asked Mr. about his future, and Chen said: "Your brothers' stars are much bigger than his!" Zhao Kuangyin was therefore very conceited, and later pacified the world, and repeatedly sent people to welcome Chen Tuan into the court, but Chen Kuangyin refused, so he gave the name "Mr. Xiyi".

Later, Song Taizu died, Taizong ascended the throne, remembered the hotel adventure, and summoned Chen Tuan, and said that he did not need to be a courtier. Chen Juncai followed the envoy into Beijing. Taizong asked him for advice on the way of cultivation, and Chen Shu said: "The Son of Heaven is the king of a country, if the sun ascends to heaven, what good will it do to the people?" Now the king is wise and good, diligent in political affairs, and benevolent to the people, and he will be prosperous for eternity. Taizong nodded yes, respecting him more and more. Soon, Chen Tuan said goodbye to Taizong, saying that he would come back to see Shengyan in 20 years, but Taizong knew that he couldn't keep him, so he left.

Duangong five years, Emperor Taizong reigned for twenty years, and he had not yet set up a crown prince, so he was anxious and thought: "Only Chen Tuan can best predict the blessings and misfortunes of people, and only invite him to decide this matter." Thinking of this, the chamberlain reported that Chen Tuan asked to see him. Taizong was shocked, invited him into the palace, and asked; "What advice do you have for this visit?" Chen Jun said: "The old man knows that His Majesty has doubts in his chest, so he has come to judge His Majesty. Taizong Da Lu smiled and said: "I know that Mr. Lu Dao has the ability to predict, and today is indeed the case!" I am worried about the establishment of the crown prince, Xiangwang Yuankan is tolerant and loving, and has the degree of an emperor, but I don't know what the blessings are, and I annoy Mr. Xiangfu to take a look. Chen Tuan received the order, and he came back in front of the Xiangfu Gate. Taizong asked, "Why didn't Mr. go in and come back?" Chen Shu said: "The old man has seen that the people who run back and forth in front of the Xiangfu Gate have the blessing of the general, why bother to see the King of Xiang again?" Taizong then made up his mind, announced the call on the same day, and made King Xiang the crown prince, which was later Emperor Zhenzong.

Chen Jian stayed in Kyoto for a month and returned to Wudang Mountain. At this time, Mu Bochang, more than 100 people such as Chongfang, all built rooms under Wudang Mountain, and listened to him lecture "Zhou Yi" day and night. Only the Five Dragons Sting Method, Chen Tuan did not teach. One day, Chen ordered the men to dig a stone chamber on the high rock at the mouth of Zhang Chao's valley. After the stone room was chiseled, Chen Jian went to watch it with the others, only to see the clouds and smoke like green. Chen Jian thought to himself: "This is what Mao Nu said, 'will be into the green smoke'." After speaking, he sat cross-legged on the ground, supported his right hand, and passed away with his eyes closed. The gatekeeper then made a stone box to hold his body, and placed it in the stone chamber with a few zhang long iron cables. As soon as the people of the gate left, the rock collapsed by itself, and immediately became a cliff, only to see the five-colored auspicious clouds, sealing the mouth of the valley, and only gradually dispersed after dozens of days, and the descendants then called this place Xiyi Gorge.
