Chapter 126: Between

"Good boy, are you unmoved? I praised you at the beginning, and it was true. ”

However, just between the lightning and the fire, with Qian Laosan's sudden gentle smile, the treacherous and gloomy atmosphere disappeared completely.

The paper figures have all returned to their original lifeless appearance.

I only heard Qian Laosan say: "You can play with me, I can't ignore Huang Yongen's kindness back then, since you found the mural under the altar, then I will tell you everything." ”

Qian Laosan sighed suddenly.

"The sacrifice at the end of the Ming Dynasty was Wei Chunming's use of anti-Qing and Ming restoration as a disguise, but in fact he sought immortality?"

Seeing that he stopped, I didn't say much, but asked directly.

"Yes, that mural has depicted most of the information about that sacrifice, but in fact, there is still important information, but the mural cannot be fully displayed, for example, the purpose of the sacrifice was not actually Wei Chunming's quest for immortality in the first place."

Qian Laosan said.

"Who's that?" I was slightly surprised.

Sacrifice is indeed the practice of seeking immortality.

But the real object of immortality is not Wei Chunming!

"Think about it, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when the population was plummeting, a large-scale sacrifice of 19,000 people used more than 10,000 living people, as well as several special life boys who were one in 10,000 miles, plus 5,000 feng shui masters to assist, these people are what a mere metaphysical scholar can call?"

"That's not all, do you know that the underground altar, a hundred doorways, a thousand dark rooms, and countless ditches and secret passages, not to mention how many craftsmen are needed, how much material resources are needed to build this underground altar? Is it a last-life feng shui master who can use it? ”

"Chen Qi, you must know that in ancient times, the status of our Jianghu metaphysical scholars was basically not too high, and now, what we want is nothing more than because the people in the rivers and lakes have plummeted, and all kinds of secret techniques are only in the hands of a small number of people, and things are scarce."

Qian Laosan did not say the name directly, but slowly said it.

And when he said this, the implication was obvious enough.

I said: "According to what I said, only the original Long Live Lord, Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, has this ability, found so many people, and used so many material resources?" ”

"No, it's not him."

Qian Laosan did shake his head and said negatively: "What really wants immortality is not long live, but the nine thousand years old of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Daming is 9,000 years old!

When Qian Laosan mentioned these words, my eyes were stunned.

A person's name immediately popped up in my mind.

And when this name appeared in my mind, it suddenly dawned on me.

"Daming Wei Zhongxian."

I'll name people.

I only know that there are loyal and virtuous, but I don't know that there is a great eunuch of the emperor!

"Yes."

Qian Laosan nodded.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the surname "Wei" and the eunuch ......

Actually, judging from some clues and information I got recently, I should have thought of this person a long time ago, but unfortunately not only did the woman in red re-engrave the stone tablet not record him, but even the mural did not have him.

But soon, I became confused, and I said, "That sacrifice took place when the Qing army entered the customs, and Wei Zhongxian had already died?" ”

According to historical records, Wei Zhongxian died in 1627, and the sacrificial practice was at least after 1644.

"Wei Zhongxian did die early, but he can lay out in advance, those manpower and material resources are all left in front of him, Chen Qi, this nine-thousand-year-old ability is very awesome, or how to say that there are many long-lived masters in history, but there is only one who is nine-thousand-year-old?"

"Before Emperor Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, he controlled the state government, almost above tens of thousands of people, how could he not have imagined that there would be a day when he was executed? He knew that when the new emperor ascended to the throne, he might not be able to protect himself, after all, no matter how powerful a person was, he couldn't compete with the power of a country, so he laid out this game early, thinking about immortality! ”

At this point, Qian Laosan's words were at this point, and I frowned at first.

There is a paradox.

Wei Zhongxian knew that he was going to die a long time ago, so why did he arrange sacrifices and seek immortality?

Immortality is an act before the body, not after death.

After death and life, that is called ...... Dead!

If immortality is already against the laws of nature, the common sense of heaven, and it is simply absurd and completely impossible to happen, then this resurrection from the dead is even more exaggerated!

"Wei Zhongxian wants to come back from the dead? This is unlikely. I said.

This is not just a violation of the laws of nature, but an unimaginable thing that has caused the heavens and the earth to collapse!

Immortality, immortality, you are just the endless life of longevity, but you will still be killed by external forces, and you can be restrained.

But to come back from the dead is to live and die, in an infinite cycle, and it is something that cannot be restrained at all.

"It's unlikely, it's too ridiculous to talk about eternal life, let alone come back from the dead, but have you ever thought that Wei Zhongxian's death is to want eternal life? He didn't die to be resurrected, but to die because he wanted eternal life? ”

Qian Laosan said something a little twisted.

And then it immediately understood what he wanted to say......

Wei Zhongxian hanged himself when he knew that he would definitely die, and these are clearly recorded in the official history.

But the hanging here is fake, he wants to use this to achieve the goal of eternal life!

The body is dead, the soul is dead, how does Wei Zhongxian want to live forever?

"Memories ...... Forever"

I spoke.

It's the method of immortality that the woman in red said at the beginning!

Wei Zhongxian's suicide is part of this sacrifice!

"Yes, that sacrifice is the memory of Wei Zhongxian's plan to live forever, and his hanging is not only hanging, but also to cooperate with the later sacrificial practices."

Qian Laosan nodded and said.

And then, Qian Laosan smiled and said: "The feng shui master who presided over the sacrifice is Wei Zhongxian's righteous son and the person he trusts the most, but unfortunately, Wei Zhongxian underestimated the greed of human nature, he is dead, and his prestige has long been dispersed. ”

"No one can escape the temptation of eternal life, Wei Zhongxian has calculated all his life, but he has not calculated this."

Speaking of which, I fully understood.

The sacrifice at the end of the Ming Dynasty was actually arranged and prepared by Wei Zhongxian, but in the end the fruit was stolen by Wei Chunming.

so

Since this is a sacrifice that uses memory to preserve and achieve eternal life, why does the person on the mural look exactly the same as Wei Chunming today?

I asked Qian Laosan about my doubts.

I saw him smile at me: "Why do you look the same?" Hehe, I'll tell you ......."
