Chapter 523: The Legend of Emperor Qin
"Did your uncle sneak here again?" I asked Li Di.
This old man treats Li Di as his own, and it is not uncommon for him to come quietly without listening to our dissuasion.
Li Di responded: "He didn't come, he was afraid that the two of us would take a detour, so he contacted a local Taoist friend he knew many years ago and asked him to take us for a ride." He also said that this man knew something about the bone mirror, and asked us to wait for him here. ”
"That's great."
The old man also knows a little about the bone mirror, which can save us a lot of trouble.
Since we had made an appointment, we couldn't run around anymore, so we sat on the curb and waited.
In less than half an hour, an old man appeared in front of us.
"Are you Li Di? Are you an immortal? ”
He glanced at me and Li Di, and said hehe.
"You are always Senior Zhu?" Li Di greeted her with a smile, but there was obviously a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
The image of this old man is simply ......
His hair was gray, unkempt, he stood straight one by one, his face and neck were covered with ashes, how many years had he not washed his face?
He had a long beard and was covered with scraps of unknown food.
He was wearing a coarse cloth gown with no visible background, and his two sleeves were stiff and shiny, and he had not been washed for at least ten years.
……
If Li Di hadn't told me in advance that his surname was Zhu, I would have thought that he was a close relative of the second senior brother.
However, his complexion was very good, his face was ruddy, and he was full of energy.
When the old man saw Li Di greeting him, he waved his dirty hand: "What seniors are not seniors, just call me Old Man Zhu." Let's go, I'll take you home. ”
Old man Zhu said to leave, and as soon as the words fell, he turned around and strode forward.
Li Di and I hurriedly got up and followed him closely.
"Senior, we have an urgent matter here, I heard that you know the whereabouts of the bone mirror?"
"I've always suspected that King Qin's bone mirror is on that bald mountain near my house, and you came ......just in time," said Old Man Zhu, leading us to a broken tricycle.
Then, he motioned for Li Di and me to get into the car.
This old cow, at such an old age, he still rides a three-jumper that burns oil.
I remembered what he had said halfway and was about to ask what he meant when he kicked the three jumpers on fire.
Boy.
This movement is comparable to a tractor!
As soon as the two of us sat down, he twisted the accelerator and jumped out with three jumpers.
It's just that this thing runs and jumps, and a good road is just out of the uneven feeling.
The jolting and shaking made me lose track of time, until my butt was about to be turned into eight petals, and the three-wheeled motorcycle stopped at the foot of a large mountain.
There are three lonely tiled houses here, which are obviously the residences of this Zhu senior.
After getting out of the car, he pushed open an old wooden door and let us in.
Oh, don't look at this old Zhu head sloppy, his house is quite neatly cleaned up.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a gossip map hanging on the wall, and a couplet hangs on both sides.
Shanglian: Divination and divination know all the blessings and misfortunes in the world.
Downlink: Calculate the selected ecliptic of the world.
In the middle of the gossip diagram, there is an offering table, on which the statue of Sanqing is enshrined, and there is a large bundle of incense and candles next to it.
It turned out that Old Man Zhu was a fortune teller on weekdays.
Glancing lightly around the room, I opened my mouth urgently: "Senior, where is this bone mirror?" ”
Old man Zhu smiled: "It's on the mountain behind, when we finish eating, we'll go and have a look." ”
I really didn't want to eat, but Old Man Zhu said that in order to pick us up, he didn't even eat breakfast, and he had been repairing the motorcycle for more than three hours, and finally repaired it, and now he is so hungry that he is about to die.
This old guy is really inhibited.
No problem, no matter how anxious I am, I have to wait, I can't stop letting people eat, right?
It's just that this old man's style left me speechless.
In this hurry, he actually made four dishes and one soup.
Do you need to be so particular?
It seems that he can't take us closer to the mountains without eating to the fullest.
"Senior, what kind of mountain is this? Why is Qin Shi Huang's ossuoscope buried here? ”
I also figured it out, so I asked.
Old man Zhu was leisurely and elegant, and he even drank a little wine by himself.
After taking a sip, he picked up a chopstick dish and stuffed it into his mouth, until he chewed it and swallowed it, and then gestured and said: "This mountain is called Tianyin Mountain, and the reason why Qin Shi Huang's bone mirror is here is that it is said to suppress a mysterious person." ”
Mystery man?
This surprised me.
There are people who use magic weapons or formations to suppress ghosts, and there are also people who suppress demons, and I have never heard of suppressing people.
"What kind of person is it? Is it dead or alive? ”
I'm more concerned about this.
If the person being suppressed is a good person or a dead person, then it is not a big problem, but if he is an old immortal and still alive, this matter is not easy to do.
If we don't hold a bone mirror, we can't lift the tongue from our body.
But if you take it, the mysterious person will inevitably lose the suppression and be born, which will inevitably lead to trouble.
Old man Zhu took another sip of wine: "No one knows who it is." There is a legend in our local area that when Qin Shi Huang was in power, he toured the south, passing through Penglai Prefecture, and saw a group of fishermen who salvaged a floating corpse from the sea. ”
"The corpse was an old man, tall and unusually tall, with a good countenance, his hair was longer than his chest, his skin was ruddy, his flesh was as strong as iron, and he was still dressed in the clothes of the kings of the ancients. The corpse didn't know how long it had been floating in the sea, no one knew its origin or cause of death, but it still looked as usual, and there was no sign of being soaked in the sea for a long time, especially when a sea breeze blew, the ancient corpse's beard and eyebrows all flew, just like a living person. ”
"The fishermen were so impressed by its momentum that they regarded it as a god and knelt down and kowtowed."
"Qin Shi Huang was trying his best to seek immortality, and when he happened to encounter this floating corpse, he thought it was the remains of the immortals in the sea, and felt that he should be sacrificed and enshrined, in order to ask the immortals to give him immortal medicine."
"In this way, Qin Shi Huang immediately sent someone to transport the body back to Xianyang, specially built a temple, and offered the corpse."
"At that time, Qin Shi Huang's subordinates had many monks, and those monks held the opposite view of Qin Shi Huang, they believed that this immortal corpse was an ancient zombie, a demonic thing, and must have emerged from the eyes of the South China Sea. Moreover, this incident had never been heard of or seen before, and it seemed to symbolize some bad omen, so he thought of persuading Qin Shi Huang to deal with it. So, all the scholars discussed and made a proposal to Qin Shi Huang together. ”
"The monks who can eat under Qin Shi Huang are not idle people, and they analyze their interests one by one and persuade them to dispose of the corpses."
"Although Qin Shi Huang has the courage to unify the six countries, in front of the Fang Shi, he is a very soft-eared person, and he can't stand these people from telling the truth, plus he is convinced of these mysterious and mysterious things, and he is worried that the corpse floating in the eyes of the sea will really have a sign of the death of the country, so he asked those Fang Shi, what should be done with this corpse?"
"After discussion, the monks said: lest it be angered and make it wake up slowly, it is not allowed to add fire, knives and axes, and in order to avoid major incidents, it is not allowed to be released to the sea again, so that it can only be hidden in the cave, and then suppressed by the town, so that it will never wake up, it is the best."
