Chapter 216: Nine Immortals

"Where did you get so many holes?" Chen Lin said strangely, she said that she had never heard of these things in the back mountain before, "but since a few years ago, because I always bump into evil spirits, few people have come to the back mountain, and no one knows what happened inside." ”

I was amazed and asked, "How long ago did it start?" ”

Chen Lin thought for a while and said, "It was probably four or five or five or five or six years ago, when I had already followed Master to Qingwei. ”

I climbed down the cave wall, and when I went to the bottom of the cave, I saw that there were no bones of any cattle buried here, but all human bones, and judging from the bones, there should be men, women, and children, about a dozen people. It's a gloomy place too.

Although this back mountain is located in a remote area, it is only a few miles away from Kangping Town, and it is not a deep mountain and old forest, but in such a place, there are so many human bones buried, and no one has found it, which is really strange. Is it true that no one has ever been in here before? Or is it that as long as the person who came in, he never went out again?

I checked the bottom of the cave for a while, but I didn't find anything unusual, so I had to climb up the cave wall. Although the walls of this cave are steep and almost vertical, over the years, I have been able to climb even places like the Hangu Well with my bare hands, which is not a problem. However, Chen Lin put down the straw rope in time, but it saved trouble, and still climbed up along the straw rope.

This time we kept an eye on it, and carefully probed the vicinity, and found several holes, each about dozens of paces apart, all of which were gloomy and full of bones, some of which were human bones, some of which were animal bones, and an extremely long bone, which should be a giant python.

Every time he found a hole, Old Man Zheng would mutter: "This is too evil." Brother, why do I look like a burial pit? ”

Old man Zheng is right, this is indeed like a burial pit.

"But what kind of burial is this, and why have I never heard of it?" Old man Zheng scratched his head, looking puzzled. However, he was very obsessed with burial techniques, and he was quite excited to see this strange burial pit at this time.

I went down to see a few of these open graves, and the layout was basically the same. Open air, gloomy ground, bones. It was only later in one of the burial pits that I noticed a slight difference. There was only one skeleton buried in this pit. It is a human skeleton, sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the pit.

This time, Old Man Zheng couldn't help but be curious, and he also climbed down, leaned over with a flashlight to carefully examine the human bone, and said "Huh": "There is something on this bone." ”

I've seen it before, and on the back of this human bone is carved a rune that is like blood, dyed with cinnabar. Descending along the spine, the top is also carved with strange lines. The composition of this pattern is obviously a kind of prohibition, and looking at the brushstrokes and structure of the pattern, it should be a kind of obscure pattern.

Old man Zheng stared at the blood-colored rune and said strangely, "Why don't I know this rune?" ”

I carefully noted down the obscure lines on the human bones, pulled Old Man Zheng, and the two of them went back to the ground together. I asked the two of them if there were any higher places around the area where they could overlook the forest.

After all, Chen Lin has lived here since she was a child, and said that there is a place near here, and it is not far away. She didn't ask why, she took us with her. When I got there, it was a small dirt slope, and the terrain was only slightly higher than the surrounding area. It's just that on top of this dirt slope, somehow a huge rock has fallen, and at a cursory glance, it is estimated that it is several stories high.

We climbed up and stood on the top of the rock overlooking the forest.

I seemed to hear what Chen Lin and Old Man Zheng said, but my mind at this time was completely on the mountains and forests in front of me, and I didn't know what they said at all. Just by looking at it, the cold hairs on my whole body stood up, and the more I looked down, the more numb my hands and feet became, and my whole body was cold.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered the situation when I saw the giant burial in southern Xinjiang that day. I still remember the trembling fear I felt at that time. At this time, the mountain forest in front of me gave me the same feeling, it was an indescribable fear, like a giant beast lurking there, squinting coldly at me.

I stood on the top of the stone and slowly turned around, only to see that the town of Kangping was in the southwest corner of us. After carefully looking at the surrounding feng shui patterns, I remembered the strange open-air burial pit below, and my heart suddenly felt like I had been hit by a sledgehammer, and a thought flashed through my mind.

This place is just an eye of the earth, this is a fucking Nine Immortals!

I was so shocked that I blurted out. Chen Lin was taken aback by me and said, "Jiuxiantai, what is that?" ”

Old man Zheng said dumbfoundedly: "Nine Immortals...... Nine Immortals ...... How do I seem to have heard this name somewhere......"

My mind was in turmoil. I really suspect that I am wrong, but judging from the many layouts below, it corresponds to the Nine Immortals one by one. The old man Zheng muttered alone for a long time, and suddenly said "ah" and shouted, "I remembered!" Nine Immortals, isn't that a kind of legendary burial array? ”

Chen Lin said with a confused face: "What are you talking about?" ”

Old man Zheng squeezed to my side, and said with a pale face: "Little brother, this is ...... This can't really be the Nine Immortals, right? That...... Isn't that a legend? No one in this world has ever seen it, right? ”

My back was wet and cold. Jiuxiantai is said to be a kind of burial array from the Tang Dynasty. Back then, my third uncle and I lived in the village, and once I couldn't sleep at night, so I pestered Feng Laosan to tell me stories. The third uncle told me this burial method as a story, because it was so weird and bizarre that I still remember it vividly.

Since the Tang Dynasty, the world has been preferable to open a mountain as a tomb, like some emperors and generals, they like to dig a mountain directly as their own tomb. Back then, in the ancient road of southern Xinjiang, the dead face once said that there are three types of evil spirits, one is the human soul possession, the second is the spirit borrowing the body, and the third is the mountains and rivers seizing the body. It can be said that the spirit of mountains and rivers is the strongest among these three, and it is not at all comparable to human souls or spirits.

Therefore, in our industry, there are some amazing and brilliant ancestors, who thought of borrowing the spirit of mountains and rivers to build a funeral array, among which they invented such as the Qianlong array, the back water array, the water grabbing mountain array and other famous burial arrays, until a hundred years ago, there are many generations.

In fact, the funeral array is essentially a secret combination of yin and yang and the five elements, and it cannot escape the basic rational changes. Mountains and rivers are also divided into yin and yang, and mountains are yang and water is yin. There is a famous saying in our line, called "If you are near the mountain, the yang will be prosperous", that is, as long as you lean on the mountain, the yang energy will be strong, and the evil spirit will be easy to dispel. That's why later generations have the term "backer", and that's how it came about.

This Nine Immortal Terrace, also known as Jiuzhen Terrace, is an extremely strange and complex burial array built with the spirit of mountains and rivers. I heard from the third uncle that this Nine Immortals only appeared once, that is, in Wuling. I was curious and asked, "What is Wuling?" "The third uncle said that Wuling is the mausoleum of the empress Wu Zetian.

I immediately exposed his nonsense at that time and said: "The tomb of the empress is obviously in the Qianling Tomb, where did it come from?" After the death of the empress, she was buried with her man on Liangshan, which was later known as one of the eighteen tombs of the Tang Dynasty. As long as we are insiders in the industry, there is no one who does not know.

The third uncle glared at me at that time and said, "Qianling is just a vain head, the woman surnamed Wu is scheming, will you and her be buried there?" He said that there was actually only one old emperor in the Qianling Tomb at that time, and the tomb of the female emperor was in another place, which was what he called Wuling. This Wuling is extremely secret, and it uses this never-before-seen Nine Immortals.

I didn't believe it at the time, so I said you just blow it, what Jiuxiantai, what Wuling, how can there be such a thing. When the third uncle saw that I didn't believe it, he gave me a detailed explanation of the structure of Jiuxiantai. I had already taken over many corpses at that time, so I could say that I was very bold, but when I heard him tell me about the Nine Immortals, I was still so frightened that I didn't fall asleep that night.

At the time, I thought that the third uncle was telling a story casually, but it was creepy to hear him describe the details of Jiuxiantai so clearly, it was just like the real thing. I asked him how he knew about this Nine Immortals, and the third uncle said that he had also heard from others.

At that time, I was young and inexperienced, so I was mixed up by him. When I think about it now, I feel that nothing is right. Maybe it's really like what Qingzi said, the third uncle is the person who buried the door, even if he is not, he has a lot to do with the funeral door, so he can know so many secret techniques of the burial method that ordinary people can't know at all.
