Volume 1: Ancestral Mountain Burning Immortals - Altar of Solemnity Chapter 30: Bingyi Mansion Jun Sacrifice Tablet
The grimace at the bottom of the river was so painful that it extinguished the giant eye of the lantern and fled back into the mud with a roar, and as the mud churned, a huge stone tablet loomed and plunged diagonally into the bottom of the river.
When Yue Guanchao saw these writings, he couldn't help but shudder, he felt that his physical strength had recovered, and he swam out of the water with all his might.
He glanced behind him the moment he came out of the water, and the ghost face was gone, and in the mud was a giant river turtle that had been dead for a long time.
"Quick, don't grind, pull me up, Ma Yuer!"
Yue Guanchao burst out of the water, startling them, Song Siyuan hurriedly put down the oars and dragged him onto the board.
"Whew...... Whew...... Uh-hoo! ”
For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Yue Guanchao lay on the board of the boat and gasped for breath, if he hadn't been holding his breath often when he was a child, he would definitely be floating there!
"You seem to have been dragged into the water, what is that?"
Song Siyuan also stayed underwater, and when Yue Guanchao was dragged down, she saw a huge phantom flashing at the bottom of the river.
Yue Guanchao stood up and coughed up a few mouthfuls of river water, with a few hairs faintly floating in it: "Ahem... Hair, claws, and corpses. ”
"A water ghost?" Song Siyuan searched his mind, and these characteristics that Yue Guanchao said were exactly the same as those of water ghosts.
"It's not!" Yue Guanchao's head shook like a rattle, and he was still afraid when he thought about it: "It's not a water ghost, that face is too terrifying, you can have nightmares for a few nightmares at a glance, you don't know, the pair of tricks on the ghost face are like lanterns, very big." ”
"Lanterns? If by proportion, that face is estimated to be larger than our awning boat! ”
Yue Guanchao nodded, which completely aroused Song Siyuan's curiosity: "If the face of this thing is the size of a pengboat, then the whole body is at least a few zhang, but are there really giants in the world?" Why is it in the Xing'anling River? ”
"What else do you see?"
Yue Guanchao recalled the underwater horror moment, and the strange inscription poured back into his memory.
He thought for a moment, and his eyes lit up: "Inscription, there is a big tablet next to that grimace." ”
"There seems to be text on it, I can't read it, but I wrote down what they looked like."
Song Siyuan handed over the pen and paper, and Yue Guanchao recalled the ancient characters he saw, and reluctantly wrote the outline on the paper.
She picked up Yue Guanchao's ghost painting talisman and browsed for a moment, a trace of doubt appeared in her eyes: "Bingyi...... The palace king's sacrifice text? ”
"What's the matter, you know him?" Yue Guanchao changed out of clean clothes, walked over and asked.
Song Siyuan thought for a moment and said to him: "I know it, but I just don't know how to see this kind of inscription here." ”
"Oh, Sister Siyuan, don't sell it, hurry up and tell us what Bingyi is!"
Ah Ying was confused when she heard it next to her, and even Lu Fengjian's eyes were full of doubts: "Yes, you guys don't play riddles." ”
Song Siyuan cleared his throat and mysteriously introduced them to Bingyi Fujun: "Bingyi Fujun is an ancient primitive river god recorded in Chinese mythology, he was appointed by the Emperor of Heaven as a river god to manage rivers and lakes, and there is a more widely known name - Hebo, the legend is that he contributed the river map to Dayu to help him control the floods. ”
"However, now the common people worship the god of water, and the god card is generally written as the Yellow River water god Feng Yi, or Hebo Feng Yi, Bingyi Fujun, more often spread to the Xia, Shang and Zhou and pre-Qin eras, and it seems that it has not been very popular since the Han Dynasty."
After hearing Song Siyuan's words, Lu Fengjian immediately understood what she meant, and said tentatively: "Then that means that the stone tablet of the Bingyi Mansion Monarch's Sacrifice has been in this river for at least three thousand years!" ”
Song Siyuan nodded: "Indeed, earlier than the pre-Qin era, if someone sacrificed to the god of water, they would indeed be called Bingyi Mansion Jun, I guess this stele was put into the river thousands of years ago, but I don't know who placed the stele was!" ”
"Could it be that ugly thing is Hebo? But in the blink of an eye, that thing turned into a big king shell again. ”
Yue Guanchao didn't believe it, but his eyes did see the strange thing in the water.
Song Siyuan's eyes rolled wildly, and she guessed: "People can't breathe underwater, they may hallucinate because of poor breathing, maybe it's just that you're dazzled, the handprints on our feet, maybe it's the water beasts, fish and turtles that have accumulated essence in the river or something, if you want to say that there is a river here, it's a fantasy." ”
"Maybe, I'm really dazzled......"
Yue Guanchao stared at the water and muttered to himself, he only felt that the river was cold and terrifying, even if the white mist dissipated and the sun was shining, his heart was always cold!
Lu Fengjian complained loudly: "This ghost place, we haven't entered it yet, we have to go in, we don't know how many sins we will suffer!" ”
Yue Guanchao was warm enough to warm the sun, and the coolness on his body suddenly went seven or eight points, and he picked up the oars to stir the river at will: "As the old saying goes, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, we have all come in, and it is impossible to come back." ”
"Wait, ahead, what's up ahead?"
Song Siyuan was about to go back to the Wupeng cabin, and when he turned his head, more than ten miles in front of their boat, there was a clear roar, and the roar of the water resounded through the valley, like a waterfall falling into a 10,000-meter deep pool, and like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, and the ground moved and landslided.
Yue Guanchao felt bad, lying on the board of the boat and listening carefully to the movement from the wood, his ears moved, and his face was terrible and looked at everyone: "We are in trouble, if we can make such a loud noise, there is either a waterfall or a rocky beach in front of us, and the water flow must be loud." ”
His tone was full of anxiety, and he took out a thumb-thick hemp rope from his backpack: "Hurry up and tie ourselves up in the cabin, if we are overboarded on the rocky beach, the fairy will not be able to save us!" ”
