Chapter 82: The Yin Coffin in the Well
The mouth of the well was sealed with wooden planks, and there were thick and corroded iron chains on it, and charms were affixed to them, which faded and weathered, and shattered into slag at the slightest touch.
Wang Weijun was about to open the lock but I stopped him, I told him what I had just heard from those ghosts, Wang Weijun frowned and said: "This Feather Immortal Dao is most likely a cult, Shen Henian is very poisoned, and he actually did such an unbelievable thing. ”
"If nothing else, it must be Shen Henian buried in this well, and it is not only Shen Henian who killed seven lives, he should also have an accomplice." Liu Tong said.
"How do you know?" Wang Weijun wondered.
"You are stupid, this wellhead is sealed and locked, if Shen Henian is really buried in the well, how can he seal the well and lock it?" Liu Tong said to Wang Weijun in vain.
Only then did Wang Weijun react, and I nodded and said, "It should be someone from the Feather Immortal Dao." ”
"By the way, you just said that Shen Henian is related to the fox path we tracked down, so that means that this fox path is also related to the Feather Immortal Dao?" Wang Weijun said.
"I'm not sure yet, but it's definitely not involved." I frowned.
"What kind of fox are you talking about?" Liu Tong asked curiously.
"This matter is more complicated, I'll explain to you later, Lao Wang, open the lock, Liu Tong, give you a task, go and remove all the walls in the house and take pictures of the murals." I say.
"Yes, Master." Liu Tong answered and went out.
Wang Weijun said while unlocking the lock: "This yin and yang sister really treats herself as an apprentice, a master, and she is so obedient, I think you also listen to it, it is better to really accept her as an apprentice." ”
"Ugh." I sighed helplessly.
As he spoke, Wang Weijun opened the lock, and when we removed the plank from the well, a foul smell rushed up, and we quickly covered our mouths and noses.
"It stinks, who's going to go down and take a look?" Wang Weijun asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, I won't tell you to go down." I gave him a blank look, and then leaned over to the mouth of the well to look down, and it was pitch black below, and I didn't know how deep it was.
I took out the yang candle and blew it down, and as the yang candle fell, I found that the wall of the well was also full of murals, but because the yang candle fell so fast, it was difficult to see what was painted on the mural.
The yang candle fell to the bottom of the well, making a crisp sound in the air, we looked down, it was more than ten meters deep, what is the concept of more than ten meters, about four stories high, which is very deep for going deep into the ground.
"It's pretty deep." Wang Weijun muttered.
As soon as his words fell, the flame of the yang candle flickered a few times and then went out, Wang Weijun and I glanced at each other, and we all knew what was going on in our hearts, the yang candle was ignited with the yang energy of people, and the ordinary wind could not be extinguished, only the yin wind could blow it out, which means that our guess will not be wrong.
No matter what is at the bottom of the well, I have made up my mind to go down, I took a deep breath and took out the magic rope and prepared to put it down, Wang Weijun pressed my arm, and said with a serious face: "Are you thinking about ......." ”
Wang Weijun has always been a fool, and he has never been so serious, which shows that he also has a full imagination of the danger underground.
"Lao Wang, I have to go down today, not to mention that the souls of the seven ghosts are still in the hands of Shen Henian, this matter is closely related to the fox path we investigated, even if Brother Shui is here, he will go down to find out." I say.
Wang Weijun let go of his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you with my ability, and I let you go down sick, but don't worry, if you can't cope with it below, I will definitely go down to help no matter what the situation." ”
"I have received this intention from you, and I am content to hear this as a brother, but no matter what happens, you don't want to come down, you just take care of it above." I was a little moved.
"It's ......." Wang Weijun was a little embarrassed.
"Don't do it, just say it, you pull the law rope, I'll go down and take a look." After saying that, I put the rope into the well and climbed down.
I lit a yang candle, holding a yang candle in one hand, pulling the rope slowly down with the other hand, the mural on the wall of the well is slowly clear, the mural depicts the situation in a big mountain, the mountain is painted hazy, as if it is surrounded by mist, the mountain also painted a lot of strange beasts, at first glance it is not the current species, some beasts still have wings.
After a while, I saw the flying Taoist robe man I saw on the mural in the room at first, he was standing in this mountain at the moment, looking up at the top of the mountain, this mural seemed to be the follow-up story of the mural in the room, and the Taoist seemed to have come to this mountain after flying into the sky.
I followed the flying robe man to the top of the mountain, but there was a huge beast on the top of the mountain, the momentum was immense, as if the whole mountain was under my feet, the appearance of this beast was somewhat similar to the modern fox, but it had nine scattered tails, and the abstract sun and moon were painted in the sky at the same time, and a word flashed in my mind: nine-tailed fox!
Wang Weijun and I motioned for the rope to be lowered.
I went down to the middle of the well, and the mural here depicts that the flying Taoist robe has gone up to the top of the mountain to find the nine-tailed fox, the two sides are fighting, the clouds and mist next to it, all kinds of strangely shaped magic weapons are suspended in the air, and the position of the sun and moon on the mural is constantly changing, which symbolizes the rotation of the sun and the moon, which means that the day and night are constantly changing, which means that the battle lasted for a long time.
I was about to go down to the bottom of the well, and the last part of the mural said that the Flying Dao Robe Man had conquered the nine-tailed fox, sat on top of it, and finally feathered himself and fused himself with the nine-tailed fox.
The more I look at this mural, the more it looks like a certain legend, but I can't recall that there is such a legend, and the books in the feng shui museum have never recorded this legend, I vaguely feel that the mural is likely to be the doctrine of the cult of Yuhua Immortal Dao, and this flying Taoist robe is likely to be the ancestor of this cult, similar to our Maoshan Sanqing ancestor like a character.
I was in a state of distraction when I suddenly felt a chill down my spine, and then I came back to my senses and realized that I had reached the bottom of the well.
I took my eyes off the mural on the wall of the well, there was a road in front of the bottom of the well, the road was not deep, I raised my head and made a gesture to Wang Weijun, signaling that I was going in, Wang Weijun reminded me to be careful, and then I entered the road with a yang candle.
Because the yin energy is very strong, the yang energy candle flickers on and off, so I tried to stabilize my mind and protect the flame with my hand, which made the fire stabilize.
At the end of the road is a gate, on both sides of the gate there are two stone statues of fox-faced people, the appearance of these two stone statues reminds me of the two in the fox fairy cave of Wang'er Mountain, I realized something, looked up sharply, and sure enough, I saw a plaque hanging above the gate, the plaque read: "Fox Road Shen's tomb." ”
This plaque is a tombstone!
There's no mistake, this Shen Henian is also a Taoist priest who practices the Fox Dao, maybe he is a Taoist of the Ming Dynasty and a descendant of this Fox Dao subordinate that we have been tracking!
A strong sense of foreboding rose in my heart, Wang Weijun casually took a job and found a fox tomb, this probability is very low, but it was encountered, what does this mean?
That is to say, the power of this Feather Immortal Dao is all over the country, and the secret heirs do not know how many, Shen Henian is a native of the Republic of China, and it can also show that this cult has a long history, at least it is active in the Republic of China, and we are dealing with not only a fox Dao, but also a cult organization with a long history, huge power, and hidden among the people!
I was so frightened that the yang candle also dimmed, I quickly stabilized my mind, put aside what I thought of for a while, and slowly pushed the door open.
The heavy wooden door creaked, and gradually opened, only to see that it was an empty and dark space, I felt out several yang candles, touched the wall and placed it in the corner, walked around and found that this tomb was a square tomb carved in the mountain, the wall was not much decorated, all uneven mountain stones.
Although the yang qi candle was disturbed by the yin wind, it finally stabilized, and Shen Henian's tomb became clear.
There was nothing in the burial chamber, except for a dark purple coffin in the middle, which was also painted with fresco-like patterns.
This coffin is as good as new, there is no corrosion, I look around and understand what is going on, the sealing here is quite good, the walls of the tomb are very dense granite, moisture and humidity can not penetrate at all, the air is not turbid, if I don't push the door to bring in the outside air, it is estimated that it is a semi-vacuum state.
I was looking at this coffin, when suddenly a gust of yin wind struck, directly blowing out the yang candle in my hand, and then even the yang candle in the four corners of the tomb was also extinguished, and the surroundings fell into infinite darkness.
I reflexively panicked, stood in place and didn't dare to move, only heard the sound of wood squeezing in the dark, although the sound was small, but it was infinitely amplified in the tomb, it sounded terrifying, only the coffin in the tomb was wood, that is to say, the sound came from the coffin, so I thought about it and suddenly cold sweat came out of my forehead.
The spirit talisman on my back soaked into my body with a piercing chill, making people feel like falling into an ice cellar, my body was stiff, what I was most worried about was not how powerful Shen Henian's evil ghosts were, after all, I had also dealt with evil ghosts, what I was worried about was the fear of unpredictable danger brought by this darkness.
Darkness is in some ways more terrifying to the living than ghosts, because you can't imagine what will happen, and sometimes you can scare yourself to death.
"Lao Fang, what's going on below, why haven't you moved, and the yang candle has been extinguished, but let me know that you are still alive." Wang Weijun's hurried voice came.
I really don't know whether to respond to Wang Weijun or not, so I've been silent.
I know that if I have been in a state of tension, I will definitely die, only calm, the chill behind me made me think of a way, it is not impossible to fight in the dark, the tattoo can sense the approach of the femininity, that is to say, the tattoo is now my eyes in the dark, thinking of this, I quickly took out the money sword in my hand.
