Chapter 140: Gossip and Qimen

"Is this the case," Mu Yi comprehended a little, "These eight bronze doors should represent different directions, it is estimated that one direction is the correct route, and the other doors are wrong." So those people had to go through eight doors together and choose the right passage from them. ”

Xiaowen shook her head: "Bagua does not have this function, it only shows the evolution of all things, chaos gives birth to yin and yang, yin and yang give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip, there is no right or wrong in the hexagram itself, only different classifications." Qiandui is attributed to the sun, Kungen is attributed to Taiyin, Kanxun is attributed to Shaoyang, Zhenli is attributed to Shaoyin, Taiyin and Shaoyang are attributed to Yin, and the sun and Shaoyin are attributed to Yang; and the fusion of Yin and Yang is chaos. ”

"Yes, yes, but it has nothing to do with the eight doors of the tomb. Mu Yi sighed, "It's impossible to get in every door." ”

Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "There is another possibility, these bronze doors represent not gossip, but something else. ”

"Something. Mu Yi said curiously.

"Qimen Dunjia. Xiaowen said, "This is a book of mathematics in ancient times. Among them, the Qimen is used to set up a battle in formation, according to the eight directions of the gossip, it is divided into eight gates, such as opening, resting, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, and shock, among which the three auspicious doors of opening, rest, and life, and the three murder doors of death, shock, and injury, and Du Gate and Jingmen are Zhongping. Dunjia has nothing to do with gossip and is mainly used for divination. ”

Mu Yi was interested when he heard it: "In this way, it is very likely that this tomb is arranged according to the technique of Qimen." It is estimated that the owner of the tomb often led troops to fight during his lifetime, so he did not arrange it according to Feng Shui, but adopted the formation that he was best at during his lifetime. ”

Xiaowen nodded and said: "It is very likely that the Qimen Technique later evolved into the Eight Array Diagram, and as soon as the eight doors are opened, there are many changes, and the doors everywhere are constantly changing, and it is difficult for intruders to judge which gate they entered, and they will often be buried in the formation." ”

"So those tomb robbers have to enter all eight doors, so that there will always be one door right. Although this crowd tactic is a little cruel, it is foolproof. The leader of the group seemed to be a man of great proportions. Mu Yi sighed.

Xiaowen glanced at Zhongtiao Mountain and sighed: "I don't know what is buried in the ancient tomb to make the planner willing to spend such a big capital." Not to mention those who sent them to death, the price of the arms in the secret room alone is astronomical. ”

Mu Yi thought for a while and said, "Are there any legendary characters who are good at using Qimen Dunjia or Eight Array Diagrams in ancient times?"

"Yellow Emperor, Jiang Shang, Guiguzi, Sun Wu, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen. Xiaowen wanted to say it first, but after a while, she said a bunch of names.

"Then you think it could be who built this tomb? It can't be an unknown person who can have such a big deal, I think it must be among these people. Mu Yi pondered.

Xiaowen also agreed, and analyzed: "The large ancient tombs in Shanxi are all in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no more than the Western Zhou Dynasty at the earliest, and no more than the Qin Dynasty at the latest. Judging from the time, the Yellow Emperor is too early, and the people after Zhang Liang are too late, it is possible that Jiang Shang, Guiguzi, Sun Wu and others, Guiguzi and these people are all generals of the army, and it is impossible to have the manpower and financial resources to build such a large tomb, and the most likely is Jiang Shang, the founding prime minister of the Western Zhou Dynasty. ”

"Jiang Shang?" Mu Yi's eyes lit up, "It's Jiang Ziya, I remember that he is one of the people I am looking for, it seems that this trip to the ancient tomb, I have to go!"

Xiaowen heard him say that he was going to the tomb, and said worriedly: "This is not an ordinary ancient tomb, although the tomb of King Mu we went to last time was thrilling, there was no mechanism." Since this tomb is built according to the Qimen Bagua, there must be a pit of poisonous arrows, you should find the forest and leave, it is really dangerous inside. ”

Mu Yi smiled: "You don't have to worry, my reaction speed and physical strength are much higher than ordinary people, I will be fine, I can come back early tomorrow morning." ”

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Xiaowen had an idea and said: "By the way, Jiang Ziya's fief is in Qi State, that is, the boundary of Shandong, and it is impossible to repair the tomb to Shanxi." This cannot be Jiang Shang's cemetery, it is estimated that it is the tomb of a certain royal family of the Jin Kingdom, and it is also built according to the technique of Qimen. ”

"You can't lie to anyone. Mu Yi quipped, "Seeing that the tip of your nose is red, you must be lying." ”

"I don't have any. Xiaowen touched her nose nervously, revealing her true heart. Mu Yi actually deceived her, but she didn't expect her to really make excuses.

"Alright, alright. I promise you to withdraw as soon as you are in danger. Mu Yi gently hugged her waist and said with a smile, "You said that Jiang Ziya's fiefdom is in Shandong, and it is normal for the tomb to be in Shandong, how do you feel that you are so unnatural." ”

Only then did Xiaowen understand that she was deceiving him, and pinched him angrily before saying: "Although Jiang Ziya was sealed to the Qi State, he didn't want to go to the post, and later he has been assisting King Wu in Fengjing. The cemetery after his death has been found in Fengjing, Xianyang, and his hometown Weihui and other places, but they are all suspicious graves, so later generations think that he is a suspicious grave, and the real cemetery is not in these places at all, but a very secret place, and it is not impossible to say that it was built under Zhongtiao Mountain. ”

"But if Shanxi is not Jiang Shang's fiefdom, how can he build a tomb on someone else's fief?" Mu Yi would wonder if the owner of this tomb was Jiang Ziya.

Xiaowen, a college student, was questioned by Mu Yi, and couldn't help but feel angry: "What do you know, at that time, the fief here in Shanxi was called Tang, and the sub-fief was Tang Shuyu, the son of King Ji Fa of Zhou Wu, and his mother was Jiang Ziya's daughter Yi Jiang, that is to say, Jiang Ziya is his grandfather, and it is not unreasonable to be a grandson to build a mausoleum for his grandfather on a useless land." ”

"It's still my Xiaowen who knows more. Mu Yi sincerely praised that it was indeed not easy to meet such a knowledgeable person in this era.

Xiaowen raised her head smugly, but was hit by Mu Yi's chest, and the two of them laughed and hugged each other, playing in the golden threshing floor until dusk.

After finishing dinner in a hurry, Mu Yi told Xiaowen to lock the bedroom door and rush to Zhongtiao Mountain to find the forest. By the time he got to the tent last night, it was empty, as if nothing had happened.

The other party's camp has changed, but the entrance to the underground secret passage will not change, he didn't dare to rush there, and after a big circle, he arrived at the destination, where it was already full of people, and the leader was handing out weapons. Mu Yi glanced at the crowd and found the forest mixed in it.

After the weapons were distributed, the leader gave an order, and the tomb robbers entered the secret passage one by one, and Lin Zi deliberately fell behind, seemingly ready to flee for his life.

After a while, a dull sound of gunfire came from underground, very dense, and the sound of bullets was transmitted by the earth, like thunder on the horizon.

When the gunshots were quieter, Mu Yi rushed to the entrance of the secret passage and turned over into the secret room. As soon as he entered, he almost choked on the strong smell of gunpowder, and after a short pause, he adapted to the environment inside, and slowly walked towards the bronze door.

At this time, the bronze door of the Kungua had been half opened, and sporadic gunshots came from inside the door from time to time, Mu Yi did not hesitate, and quickly passed through the copper door and lay on the ground, so as not to be discovered by these tomb robbers.

As soon as his head touched the ground, Mu Yi almost jumped up in shock, and blamed him for lying in such a good position, and a dry face was just facing him.

This face seemed familiar to him, and he thought about it carefully, the monster in the apse of King Mu's tomb was such a dry face, Mu Yi looked around, except for the tomb robbers, the corpses everywhere were all humanoid monsters.

Mu Yi took off his clothes from a dead tomb robber next to him and put them on the outside of his clothes, so as not to be discovered by the other party that outsiders had come in.

When the tomb robbers left here, Mu Yi stood up and looked through the tomb robbers one by one to see if there was a forest.

As soon as he looked at the two corpses, Lin Zi's voice sounded: "Is it Brother Mu? Why are you here?" ”

Mu Yi turned his head in surprise and saw Lin Zi getting up from the ground.

"What's wrong with you, where are you hurt. Mu Yi stepped to his side in two steps and said with concern

"Hehe, I'm not hurt, I'm lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, I was about to go out when they left, but I didn't expect you to come. Lin Zi still looks obscene, and the trick of pretending to be dead is also in line with his style.

"Yours is the case. Mu Yi hammered his fist on his chest and laughed.

"Cats have a cat path, and rats have a rat path. Lin Zi shook his head proudly, "It must be a dead end to go in with them, and I don't know how many zombie-like monsters there are in it, this thing is really durable, and you can't kill it if you don't hit the head." ”

Mu Yi turned over the corpse of a monster with his feet and took a closer look. The faces of these monsters are no different from people, and there are still wisps of clothes hanging on their bodies, and even the lump under their crotch is no different from ordinary people.

"Brother Mu, what have you discovered. Lin Zi asked curiously when he saw that he seemed to have discovered something.

"This thing is the kind of monster I encountered last time after King Mu's tomb. Mu Yi turned over the monster corpse under his feet again and looked at its back.

Lin Zi hissed: "Fortunately, we ran fast last time, and we couldn't do this thing without a guy in our hands." They all call this thing a zombie, is it really a zombie?"

"I don't know if they're zombies, but they must have been human when they were alive. Mu Yi pointed to the back of the monster, "Look at the tattoos on it, these people have been cultivated into this kind of monster and put them in the tomb to prevent tomb robbers." ”

Lin Zi nodded and said, "Don't care what they are, let's go quickly." Staying in this place any longer would be dangerous. ”

Mu Yi thought so, turned around and walked towards the secret passage with Lin Zi, and as soon as he climbed into the secret passage, he heard the sound of someone coming down from above.

"Another grave robber has come down. Mu Yi reacted immediately, kicked the forest with his foot and made him retreat, and as soon as the two of them exited the secret passage, the people above arrived.

"What are you doing, why didn't you keep up? The man was wearing a helmet with a lamp tube on his head, and he was very dissatisfied to see the two of them standing in front of the passage.

Lin Zi's brain was not slow to react, and he stood in front of Mu Yi and said, "The brothers are in trouble in front, let's go up and find someone, and we happened to meet you." ”

"Well, I see, it's the same place else, come with me. The visitor paid no attention to them, and led the people who had come down with them to the passage ahead.
