Chapter Seventy-Four: The Falling Dragon
"Do you see anything?"
"The trees on both sides are planted in a different way, and how many more stones are there?"
"This side is actually a feng shui array, and the other side is an ordinary planting method, after our experiments, we found that the growth rate of plants in the feng shui array is 20 percent faster than that of the other side, and under the same conditions, the temperature and humidity of the two fields will be slightly different."
"To study metaphysics by scientific means?" Shen Jiangcheng was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Yes." Guo Huaiyang smiled and nodded.
"What is this?" After a few steps forward, he came to a separate field with trees and some iron, stone, and bronze tools.
Cyan, red, yellow, blue, square, round, some like burning flames, some like water droplets, all kinds of colors, all kinds of shapes, these utensils are pasted with pieces of yellow paper.
When I got closer, I saw that on the yellow paper was a charm written in cinnabar.
"This is, Talisman?"
"That's right, it's talismans, we got some talismans through various channels, some very peculiar talismans, it looks like ordinary yellow paper, but some won't get wet when placed in water, some won't burn when placed in fire, and some will feel an inexplicable pressure once they get close, which makes people feel in a trance and have a headache...... It's like the two charms in the Beihe Ancient Tomb. ”
"Are these these?" Shen Jiangcheng looked at these charms in front of him in surprise, these were too "extravagant".
"Those talismans are all treasured, and these are the ones we copied from those talismans."
"Imitation, then why put it on these things, is it an experiment?"
"Well, let's be honest, so far we still haven't succeeded in imitating even a single talisman, we try to see if there will be some effects through the combination of other utensils and talismans, such as the five elements, jade, etc." Guo Huaiyang pointed to the land.
"As far as I know, Taoist talismans need to be cultivated in order to draw successfully, didn't you find a Taoist priest to try?"
"I've tried it, and it did produce some wonderful effects, better than the ones we imitated, but it was far from the level of the ancient talisman we found."
"It is rumored that this Taoist talisman can communicate with heaven and earth, envoy ghosts and gods, and use the Nine Heavens Divine Qi for the caster's use, and the talisman will be used by the caster, and the talisman will be terrifying to the ghosts and gods, how can a person who is not a cultivator communicate with heaven and earth and feel the divine qi?"
"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"
Shen Jiangcheng has been engaged in archaeology for so many years, and he has a wide range of knowledge, and archaeology itself requires quite profound knowledge, and Taoist talismans and Buddhist scriptures will also appear in some ancient tombs, and he still has a certain amount of research and understanding of these things.
"Taoist cultivation requires refining qi, building a foundation, adjusting yin and yang, and dragon and tiger, and then being able to reach heaven and earth, and it takes more than ten or even decades of penance, do you want to achieve it quickly?"
"Let's go, let's talk about it in another place." Guo Huaiyang invited Shen Jiangcheng to a reception room and made a pot of tea.
"I'm curious, why are you studying these things?"
"If I say it's just a hobby, Professor Shen definitely can't."
"I don't believe it." Shen Jiangcheng shook his head.
"In the summer of the year when I was seven years old, I went to Guanglin with my parents, and in the afternoon, after the sun went down, we passed through an alley that was said to be hundreds of years old, and that night I began to have a high fever, talking nonsense, and having a strange dream, and the whole alley was full of dead people, and it was full of dead people, layer by layer, stacked higher than the wall, and there was blood everywhere, and there were broken arms and limbs."
"My parents took me to the hospital, looking for a famous doctor, but one by one were helpless, no medicine worked, and finally a Chinese doctor in the capital asked clearly, and introduced an old Taoist priest, the old Taoist priest used a talisman, the fever also subsided, and the person was awake, and since then, I have become very interested in these things!"
Speaking of that experience, Guo Huaiyang still has faint palpitations.
"Later, I slowly began to study these things, and the more I came into contact with them, the more interested I became, and the mysteries of them were worth exploring."
Guo Huaiyang's tone was rarely a little excited, and he was slightly excited, and Shen Jiangcheng on the side listened quietly.
"Zombies, dragons, fox demons, immortals, ghosts...... Are these legendary things really legends? Speaking of this, Guo Huaiyang paused and looked at Shen Jiangcheng.
"Professor Shen has been engaged in archaeology for so many years, and he has encountered a lot of strange things, right?"
Well, Shen Jiangcheng nodded.
After so many years of archaeology, he has indeed encountered a lot of strange things, strange things that cannot be explained by current science.
"I have some information here, Professor Shen, you can take a look first." Guo Huaiyang took out a piece of information prepared in advance and handed it to Shen Jiangcheng.
After receiving the information, the first page of the opening is, four eye-catching big characters.
The river fell dragon,
Shen Jiangcheng's eyes widened, and he carefully looked at the information in it, including texts, photos, time, place, and details of the incident, as well as the statements of some eyewitnesses.
Seventy years ago, a dragon fell from the sky near the mouth of the river, fell and was seriously injured, unable to move, wailing on the beach, its sound was like a cow, and the struggle was the sound of phosphorus armor.
More than one villager in the vicinity had seen it, and after a day, the scales on its body began to fall, and many flies were provoked.
The torrential rain was a day, and the water of the river swelled, and after the rain stopped, the dragon on the river bank disappeared, leaving only a few pieces of fallen phosphorus armor.
After turning a few pages, there is the second bizarre event.
Gray-robed old man,
The span of this event is relatively large,
One hundred and thirty years, someone saw a gray-robed old Taoist in the deep mountains of Cangshan, who was over the age of old, with a childish face and a brisk walk.
Twenty years later, he saw the old man in the mountains again, still like that, running in the forest like an ape, extremely agile.
More than 80 years ago, the world was in turmoil, there were bandits robbing the village, and there were strong men in the village who killed the son of the bandit leader and fled into the mountains with the villagers, and the bandits chased after them.
Suddenly, a gray-robed old man appeared, moving vertically and horizontally in the forest, and in an instant, he knocked down more than a dozen bandits, and ten meters away, Edgeworth took the life of the leader, frightening the robbers to disperse. The old man looked to be in his seventies, with a childish face.
Forty-three years ago, a man was picking herbs in the mountains, and he fell into a cliff at the bottom of the mountain, and when he saw that his life was in danger, suddenly an old man flew from the middle of the mountain, like an eagle, and grabbed him, and then fell down unscathed.
That old man is also of ancient age, dressed in a gray robe, his hair is as white as snow, but his face is like a young man.
