Chapter 59 Xuanwu Tomb 5,000 Years Tomb Love - Wish
Guanshan took a long breath: the burial of the living is a kind of funeral ritual of the ancient nobles, in ancient times, people believed that the soul of a person would live in another space after death, and the tomb is the residence of the tomb owner in another space, according to the ritual system of death as life and death as existence
The generals and soldiers under the tomb owner before his death will enter the tomb together after the death of the tomb owner, and the generals and soldiers will seal the passage to the tomb and the tomb door inside, and then go to the ground to wait quietly in the tomb for death, they think that after death, they will follow the master to establish another great cause in another space, which is the protection of the master before death and the protection of the Lord for a thousand years
You look at the corpse on the ground, he has thick limbs and a strong body, he should have been a very strong warrior before his death, judging from the scale of the burial and these gold, silver and jewelry on the ground, the owner of this tomb should be the king of a country, I didn't expect the ancients to have such superb craftsmanship, so that the corpse can be preserved so well for hundreds of years without decay
Li Yang looked at the corpse on the ground: Guanshan Daoist, you said that this corpse is so well preserved, could it have something to do with the slimy things in the jar
Guanshan: Quite possibly
The plateau is on the side: I don't know which ancient kingdom the tomb is buried
Guanshan: It's not difficult to know who is buried, let's go and see the owner of the tomb and know everything
Everyone walked to the stone palace with torches, and looked into the coffin to see that it was empty
Yuan Kui's face was surprised: how could there be no one in the coffin
Guanshan: It is possible that the group of tomb robbers moved the body of the tomb owner out in order to steal the treasure
Li Yang: Let's look around and see if we can find the owner of the tomb
Gao Yuan found a dried corpse on the ground on the right side of the palace: come and see if this is the owner of the tomb
When everyone heard this, they immediately gathered around, and the dried corpse was covered in brown and black skin, tightly wrapped around the bones, and the clothes and leather armor on the body were in tatters
Guanshan squatted on the ground and looked carefully: yes, this is indeed the tomb owner
Li Yang: Is there any basis for what you say?
Guanshan: You can see that this dried corpse is still well preserved, which means that it was previously kept in a dry and airtight place, and the tomb robbers were thrown out after their deaths and now only the bones remain, and based on this alone, it is concluded that this should be the owner of the tomb
Li Yang sighed lightly: This group of tomb robbers is too unsophisticated, even if you take the money, you even throw the tomb owner outside, this tomb owner and us also have a chance, come to the brothers to help, let's put the tomb owner back in the coffin is also a good deed
Guanshan nodded with satisfaction: What the owner said is very true
Everyone tore off a piece of cloth from their clothes and padd it on their hands, carefully lifted the dried corpse on the ground and put it in the coffin, and then several people worked together to lift the top of the stone hall on the ground and cover it on the coffin
Li Yang looked around: As soon as Li Long and the others come back, let's load all these gold, silver and jewelry into the car and pull them back
Gao Yuan, Yuan Kui and the others wandered around the tomb with torches, to see if they could find any treasures in the tomb, Li Yang sat on the ground and looked at the sarcophagus quietly, wondering if the black water corpse coffin array outside was made by the people in the tomb
Yuan Kui raised his hand and pointed to a wall and shouted: "You guys hurry up, hurry up, there is a painting on this wall."
When everyone heard this, they immediately gathered around, and the carvings on the walls were very rich, including the city-state - the people cultivating the fields - the hunters hunting in the mountains, and the war
Guanshan saw the carving on the wall: the carving on it should be some deeds of the tomb owner during his lifetime, the city on the mural has caravans and people going back and forth, indicating that the city should be very prosperous at that time, the mountains and fields carved around the city should be its territory, the flag on the city is engraved with a word of departure, this city should be called leaving the city or leaving the country
Yuan Kui: That's really what you say, when I was a child, I heard the old people say that about eight or nine hundred years ago, there was indeed a departure from the Taizhou and Chuzhou generations
Guanshan went on to say: From the mural, the people who left the country are well fed, and the person in the middle who is wearing leather armor and distributing food and meat to the people should be the tomb owner, and he also has a beautiful lady The two of them are riding horses together by the river, farming, weaving, and the tomb owner is combing the hair of the lady in front of the mirror and then bringing a hairpin, and the two should be very affectionate from the mural
Later, an army invaded the country by boat at sea, they burned and plundered everywhere, the people fled into the city, the tomb owner led the army to go out after a bitter battle to defeat the invaders, on the way to pursue the enemy, a Taoist priest found a piece of mountains and rivers, and this mountain and river are engraved with the upper Xuanwu and the lower Vermilion Bird, the left green dragon, the right white tiger
It seems that the owner of the tomb found Longfeng Mountain at this time, but the strange thing is that there are four holy beasts engraved on it, and Poor Dao only found the green dragon and white tiger Vermilion Bird in Longfeng Mountain, but did not find Xuanwu
After expelling the invaders, the Taoist priest found a cave at the foot of Longfeng Mountain, and there was a man-eating monster in it, which killed many soldiers, and the Taoist priest set up a strange formation outside the cave to kill this monster
Guan Shan gasped when he saw this: This array is the Black Water Corpse Coffin Array
After the monster died, the tomb owner used the cave as a burial pit after death, and sent a large number of people to build a mausoleum in the cave, but before the mausoleum was completed, the tomb owner contracted a strange disease and died, and a group of warriors carried the tomb owner into the tomb after it was gone
Gao Yuan: These people in the jar are supposed to be these warriors
Yuan Kui: It is strange that the owner of the tomb has a wife, and it stands to reason that his wife should be buried here after her death, but it seems that there is only one tomb owner in this tomb
Li Yang: That's really what you say
At this time, Li Long and Li Hu walked in: Young Master, we have brought the carriage and tools
Li Yang: Load all the gold, silver and jewelry on the ground and bring them back, go outside and find a place to bury these bones, and let them be buried in the ground
When collecting treasures, Takahara found a bronze sword in a wooden box, this sword is about 10 centimeters wide, about 1 meter long, the sword surface is engraved with patterns, and it is also inlaid with several gems, the hilt and gauntlet are made of gold, although this sword has been sealed in the box for nearly a thousand years, but there is no rust and it is extremely sharp
Guanshan looked at the bronze sword: this bronze sword is so well preserved that it should be the beloved thing of the tomb owner, and this sword is very similar to the sword used by the tomb owner on the mural
Li Yang hesitated: It turned out that this sword is the tomb owner's beloved thing, so I will leave this sword to accompany the tomb owner
Gao Yuan looked reluctant: the gems and hilt on this sword are very valuable, is it a pity to stay here
Li Yang's eyes frowned: The plateau is the so-called thief, there is also a way, we can't do things too much
Gao Yuan pondered for a moment, put the sword back in the box, and waved his hand: A few people come here
The soldiers went to the stone hall and pushed the coffin lid open, Gao Yuan put the wooden box flat in the hands of the tomb owner with both hands, and then the soldiers pushed the coffin lid back, Yuan Kui led the soldiers to put all the gold, silver and jewelry on the ground into the box, and saw that there was a round piece of gold on the ground with carvings on it
He bent down and picked up the piece of gold, looked at it carefully, and shouted in surprise: Li Yang, come and take a look at this
After hearing this, Li Yang quickly ran to the past: What happened to Yuan Kui
Yuan Kui stretched out his hand and handed over the gold, Li Yang reached out and took the gold and took a closer look, there was a scorpion lying on top of a chrysanthemum, and his face sank in an instant: Flower scorpion
Gao Yuan walked over with a big grin: What's the matter, did you find any treasure again?
Li Yang threw the gold out casually, Gao Yuan reached out to catch the gold, and his eyes glared slightly: Could it be that this group of tomb robbers is the people of the flower scorpion, how can they be in this ancient tomb
Li Yang raised his hand and whispered: This is not the place to talk, let's talk about it when we go back, Da Niu - Er Niu, you take a hundred soldiers to guard here, except for a few of us, no one is allowed to approach this ancient tomb
Da Niu responded: It's the young master
The gold, silver and jewels in the tomb were loaded with five carriages, and after returning to the manor, they asked the clansmen to move the gold and silver jewels to the warehouse, while Li Song counted the number of these gold and silver jewels, and the big guys gathered in the council hall to wait for news
Li Yang stretched lazily on the chair: Li Long-Li Hu, you take a hundred sword and shield men to meet the big bull, as far as we know about the flower scorpion, this is a mysterious and huge organization, and the means are ferocious, so I am a little uneasy about where the big bull is
Li Long stood up from the chair and arched his hand: Young Master, Li Hu and I will leave here
Plateau pestle on the chair: how can the people with scorpions be in the ancient tombs, could it be said that this organization specializes in tomb robbing
Yuan Kui crossed his arms: The people who can use thousands of people to rob the tomb are by no means idle, I am curious that they can take these gold, silver and jewelry, but why did they leave these money in the ancient tomb and hundreds of people died, if the mechanism is triggered, there is no trace of the mechanism in the tomb
Gao Yuan: yes, and this tomb is still sealed, what did they encounter in the tomb?
Guanshan sighed lightly on the side: The owner of the poor road always felt that there was something wrong with this ancient tomb, and when he was in the tomb, the poor road always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at us
Yuan Kui: I feel the same way when you say that, Elder Guanshan
Li Yang: These people are actually related to flower scorpions, let's see if we can find clues about flower scorpions in them or in ancient tombs
There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, Li Song pushed open the door with both hands, panting and excitedly said: The gold, silver and jewelry brought back by the boss have been counted, 3,000 catties of silver - 100 catties of gold bars - 50 pairs of gold bracelets - 200 gold rings - 30 golden hairpins - 30 silver wine glasses - 40 silver plates - 50 pearl necklaces - 70 jade pendants - 20 jade stones
When Gao Yuan heard this, he happily raised his hand and patted his thigh: Fortunately, with this money, I will be able to have a good year this year
Yuan Kui responded on the sidelines: This money is really timely
Li Yang: The second child will send the silver to the forging workshop tomorrow, and let the craftsmen smelt the silver and cast it into silver coins
Li Song was surprised when he heard this: Boss, this is unacceptable
Li Yang asked rhetorically: Why
Li Song: It is a capital offense for the boss to mint coins privately according to the laws of Zhejiang, if you want to mint silver coins, you must go to the government, but you have to hand over a little as fire silver, 3,000 catties of silver minted into 30,000 silver coins, and you will pay about 60 silver coins
Li Yang nodded slightly: The matter of the second child will be handed over to you, and when the silver coin is minted, you will pay the salt field tax owed to the government casually
Li Song: I'll do this tomorrow
Li Yang: It's not too early, don't go back if you're tired for a day today, let's go back after we enter the ancient tomb, and the yin qi on our bodies is heavy, let's deal with it here all night
Gao Yuan: It's okay to let the two sisters of Xiaozhuang and Xiaozhou go to fry a few side dishes, and our brothers have a good drink
Li Yang: By the way, Li Song took some silver from the silver treasury and came out, entered the black water corpse coffin array and entered the tomb with 10 silver coins each, let the brothers take care of their mouths and don't shout around
Li Yang opened his mouth and sighed, feeling a little sleepy, "I'm a little tired, I won't accompany the big guys, you drink" After speaking, he put the two chairs together and lay on them
"Knock knock" There were two knocks on the door, "Who's it?"
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door, "knock knock", "knock knock"
Li Yang opened his eyes and looked out, it was just dawn, and he looked around the room and found that he was the only one in the house, oh plateau, they may have gone back after drinking, so he put on an impatient look, "Who is my grass this morning?"
Stretching out his hands and pulling the two doors back, he came to the outside of the manor, dozens of samurai in leather armor and swords and halberds stood outside the door, they were very muscular with their hair draped, their heads slightly bowed, and a wooden palanquin was placed in the middle
Li Yanggang wanted to open his mouth and ask: Who are you doing here?
I saw a relatively thin man in a long shirt walking to the front, his face was as white as paper, and he waved his hand back at Li Yang, and Li Yang involuntarily walked towards him, "What is the situation in my grass, why don't my body obey the call, stop, stop."
Li Yang walked to the sedan chair and sat on it, the soldiers lifted the sedan chair and swayed forward, where are they taking me, why can't I even speak, passing by a field, I saw people working hard in the field, they were wearing clothes made of animal skins, a man with a sickle was collecting the ground, he straightened up and raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, a beautiful woman held the kettle in both hands and handed it to the man, I saw that the man took the kettle and drank the water, and then looked at the woman, both of whom leaked a smile of relief, A group of children giggled and played in the fields, and caravans drove horses by
The soldiers carried the sedan chair to the palace built at the foot of the mountain and stopped, Li Yang saw that this is not Longfeng Mountain, when did this build such a magnificent palace, the thin man bowed to me and made a gesture of please, I followed him to the palace, twenty warriors with giant axes stood in two rows in the palace
A handsome man sat on a golden chair, he was wearing a gorgeous silk gown, a dark purple auspicious cloud pattern jade belt tied around his waist, long hair like flowing water, a pair of deep and sharp eyes, tall and elegant, judging from his appearance, this person should be about 37-8 years old
Li Yang shouted softly: Who are you bringing me here to do what you want to do?
Seeing this, the warriors on both sides glared angrily at Li Yang and walked over with a giant axe in both hands, and out of instinctive reaction, Li Yang was about to draw a knife, but when he looked down, he saw that I didn't even bring a knife
I saw him raise his hand and wave: "You all go down."
The warriors slowly left the palace, and the man got up from his chair: You don't have to be afraid of me to introduce yourself, my name is Helian Yuanjie, we met during the day
Li Yang's face changed when he heard this: Why don't I remember that I saw you during the day
Helian Yuanjie smiled slightly: Why did you forget me so quickly, didn't you still move gold, silver and jewelry out of my house during the day
When Li Yang heard this, he sat on the ground with angry eyes, raised his hand and pointed at Helian Yuanjie's hesitant "you-you"
Helian Yuanjie: That's right, I am the owner of the tomb, Helian Yuanjie, the king who left the country
When Li Yang heard this, he immediately got up from the ground and turned around to run out, but somehow although he could see the outside in front, it was indeed like a wall that had to be blocked in front, and after trying a few times, he turned around: If you want to kill me because I took the money, I ask you to let me live, I will send all the gold and silver back, and I promise that I will never enter this tomb in the future
At the moment of turning around, Helian Yuanjie suddenly appeared in front of me, his breathing became short, and the heartbeat sounded in his ears, Helian Yuanjie slowly raised his hand and patted Li Yang lightly on the shoulder, at this moment, the heartbeat accelerated sharply, and the breathing could not breathe at all
Helian Yuanjie nudged Li Yang forward vigorously: Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, these things in the tomb are all outside my body, even if I leave those gold, silver and jewelry in the tomb, it will be useless to me, if you use all of them, it will be fine
Li Yang looked at Helian Yuanjie suspiciously: You really won't harm me
Helian Yuanjie: Don't worry, you are the second wave of people to enter this ancient tomb for hundreds of years, the last time I was woken up by the people who came to rob the tomb, and I don't know how long I wandered here, until you came in not long after a violent shaking
I've been watching you from the moment you came in, and you're not the same as the last group of people who came to rob the tomb, those guys were so unrighteous that they didn't care about the gold, silver, and jewelry, and even threw me out of the sarcophagus, if you hadn't come I'm afraid I'd be a lonely ghost in the future
Speaking of this, Helian Yuanjie bowed to Li Yang: Thank you for putting my body back in the coffin
Li Yang hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hands and helped Helian Yuanjie up: You really make you embarrassed when you say this
Helian Yuanjie raised his hand and waved it up and down: Come on, let's sit down and say
Then he shouted to the outside of the hall: Someone has come to bring wine
The two maids walked over with their heads slightly lowered and tiptoed, she put the wine jug and a plate of fruit in front of them, the two maids looked Li Yang up and down, and a shy smile leaked out, and after leaving, they looked back at Li Yang from time to time
Helian Yuanjie picked up the wine jug and gave Li Yang a glass of wine: Come and don't see me outside for a drink
Li Yang respectfully stretched out his hands and picked up the wine glass: Oh, thank you
Helian Yuanjie picked up the wine glass and drank the wine, Li Yang looked at the wine in the wine glass, his brows were blue, and he didn't drink it for a long time, how does this thing feel so awkward, drinking with a dead person is ghost wine, can you really drink this wine, will I stay here after drinking it, and I will never be able to get out again, I remember hearing the old man say that when people are drunk, their yang energy will weaken a lot, and the evil will take advantage of this time to come out to find a substitute, no, this wine can not be drunk
Li Yang shook his hand respectfully: I hope you can forgive me if I don't have much alcohol strength
Helian Yuanjie shook his head in disappointment and sighed lightly: You are the first to talk to me in a few hundred, but it's a pity that you can't have a drink with me
Seeing that Helian Yuanjie was a little lost, Li Yang thought to himself that I also drank it out, if he really wanted to harm me, he would have done it a long time ago, thinking of this, Li Yang picked up the wine glass: Then I will accompany you to have a drink today
Helian Yuanjie nodded happily: Okay-good
The two chatted briefly, and Li Yang picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Helian Yuanjie: Brother Helian has something I want to ask you about
Helian Yuanjie: You say
Li Yang: I'm very curious about what a group of tomb robbers encountered in this tomb, they didn't even take away the gold, silver and jewelry they had in hand, and folded hundreds of people
Helian Yuanjie hesitated for a while: To be honest, I don't know much about this matter
Li Yang: Brother Helian, is this your tomb after all?
Helian Yuanjie: Of course, this is my tomb, but it's not all
Li Yang: How do you say that?
Helian Yuanjie drank a glass of wine: My tomb is only a part of this tomb, there is a larger tomb in this tomb, as for whose tomb is and when this is unknown, but I am sure that the last group of people who came to rob the tomb were not just tomb robbers, they seemed to have come to this tomb to find something, and their experience was probably related to the big tomb inside
Li Yang was surprised when he heard this: there was a tomb in it
Speaking of this, Helian Yuanjie suddenly knelt on the ground and looked at Li Yang with tears in his eyes
Seeing this, Li Yang hurriedly got up: Brother Helian, why are you here
Helian Yuanjie: Brother, although you and I don't know each other, we can be regarded as acquaintances at first sight, for my brother, I have something to ask for, and I hope you can help
Li Yang: Brother Helian, please stand up and say that as long as I can do it, I will not postpone it
Helian Yuanjie was a little excited when he heard this: Brother and my wife are locked up in this tomb inside, and for hundreds of years I can always hear her crying out in pain and calling my name, brother, I beg to open that tomb and save my wife, so that we can be reunited with each other
Li Yang did not hesitate: Brother Helian, what should I do
Helian Yuanjie: Brother, you just need to open that tomb and bring out my wife's body, and then bury the two of us together, brother, you must be careful that this tomb has a strong magic circle, and a yin person like me can't get close at all, and you have to be careful that there are still very powerful things inside, I don't know exactly what it is, in short, you must be careful of the tomb inside
"Wow-oh" There were a few rooster crows outside
Helian Yuanjie smiled slightly: Brother, I won't keep you when it's dawn
I saw him wave his hand, and Li Yang woke up from his sleep with an "ah" scream, and his clothes had been soaked with sweat
Gao Yuan and the others woke up from their sleep after hearing Li Yang's scream: What's wrong with you
