Volume 2: Snow Ridge Please Spirit - Haidong Imperial Mausoleum Chapter 244: Scaly Mountain Hook

"You can know that the tomb of the dragon vein is the most difficult to dig, once it is detected by the vein spirit, it will not be able to find the entrance of the tomb, and at worst it will die in the mountains."

After speaking, the cat master stopped speaking, and looked intently at the golden cicada circling in the air, it seemed to be really psychic, and it continued to squeak around the Zhu Fu diagram.

Then, the six wings flapped violently and flew in a certain direction of the wild forest.

"Come on, my thousand-year-old cicada has found the entrance to the tomb, and you carry me a mountain lantern, I have to follow it."

Without waiting for the cat master to leave, the housekeeper had ordered the strong man to take down the mountain lantern, and followed the cat master out of the dense forest, Yue Guanchao and Ge Da were afraid that the old arms and legs would have a meaning, so they also took advantage of the light to follow behind.

Although the thousand-year-old cicadas have lived for a thousand years, they are only the size of their thumbs when carefully calculated, and they do not fly fast, and they run away and step out of the wild forest to the wild meadows where the shrubs are relatively sparse.

The cat master came out of the dense forest and followed the thousand-year-old cicada closely, until the place where it circled was surrounded by red cinnabar, and then he stretched his waist and wiped the hot sweat.

At this moment, the team of the housekeeper had already followed, and the cat master carefully sent the thousand-year-old cicada into the ivory jar, pointed to the cinnabar circle and said:

"Look at this place, few people come in the middle of Zhipandianzi, it should be lush with ancient trees, shrubs and weeds, but it is unusual, so sparse that you can look up and see the moon, what does this mean?"

"The ancient trees here are smaller than other places, and it can be inferred from this that something has happened in this place before, causing the ancient trees and shrubs to grow in abundance."

Song Siyuan's inference made the cat master clap his hands: "Ah, yes~ I understand, if you want to talk about who is the Zhiduoxing in this pair, it has to be this Song girl." ”

After praising Song Siyuan, the cat master coughed lightly a few times and continued to say to the surroundings:

"The ancients sealed the tomb, and mostly used yellow, blue, black, red, white and other five-color soil mixed with antiseptic and insect repellent secret drugs, and then combined with a sand and gravel sealing layer, so that the vicinity of the tomb is more solid, and it is not easy for underground insects and earthworms to patronize, so that the tomb wall can be protected as much as possible."

"Although this thing is good, it is not beneficial to the growth of plants and trees, and most of the secret medicines are highly poisonous, and in the long run, plants and trees will be affected."

"If it seems to ordinary people, it is just an ordinary open space, but for the thousand-year-old cicada, it can smell the dead air in the tomb under the soil layer where hundreds of insects are not close and snakes and worms are not close, and it is not surprising that it will circle around this place."

Master Mao's words made everyone feel foggy, Yue Guanchao looked at Song Siyuan, his face was full of confusion: "This thing, it is very strange to find out the location of the tomb, I have never seen a golden cicada that can live for a hundred years." ”

Song Siyuan stared at the cinnabar circle and bowed her head to think for a moment, her eyes seemed to have penetrated the mystery of the golden cicada:

"Master Mao said that any animal has a different species, I believe that there is no insect pupa that can survive underground for thousands of years, this statement should only be a good name for insect xenogene, just like a thousand years of Ganoderma lucidum, a thousand years of ginseng, not really a thousand years, but a long age."

"When I was studying abroad, I worked with the insect reproduction laboratory, and there is a white-bellied red-eyed cicada in the Americas that has survived in the soil for up to 30 years, and when the 30 years are up, it will crawl out of the soil and pupate into insects.

"Everything is rare and there are dark ghosts, maybe the ancient people occasionally saw different cicadas, and it is possible to mistakenly think that they have lived for thousands of years."

"No one can be sure how long the cicada has been in the soil when it crawls out of its shell, and it is not very objective to rely on human words to corroborate it, and I believe that this cicada is just some kind of ancient rare cicada, and there are too many strange mountains in Changbai Mountain, and it is not strange that there are really any primitive species."

"Golden cicadas, golden toads, golden carps, these are all artificially given meanings, not that they are really fetish, the black catfish we saw a few days ago is not an artificial alien!"

"However, these golden cicadas can find the ancient tomb, is this also a mistake?"

Song Siyuan seemed to know that Ge Da would ask this question, and snapped her fingers and said:

"This is a good question, the sealed soil of the ancient tomb is mostly a variety of soil mixed backfill, in order to embalify also added saltpeter, white ash, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period with more cyan plaster, Tang and Song Dynasty mausoleums filled with glutinous rice soil, Ming and Qing dynasties mixed lime antiseptic, these soil once added other things, smell different from ordinary soil, the taste of glutinous rice soil is close to fermented rotten radish, the smell is sweet and greasy, careful soil master does not rely on the golden cicada can also find."

"This insect is particularly sensitive to the juice of flowers and leaves, not so much because it has found the ancient tomb, but because it is attracted by the sweet smell of the glutinous rice on the ancient tomb, and the animal's sense of smell is much more sensitive than that of humans, and people just misinterpret their instinctive behavior to excuse tomb robbing."

"With the golden cicada leading the way, it is more or less auspicious."

These words solved everyone's doubts, Ge Da and Ma Chang showed their original looks, and glanced at Song Siyuan again.

Survey the mausoleum and circle the tomb entrance.

The team of the housekeepers turned on the leaves of the lantern to the maximum, and soon four strong men gathered in the light, and they released the basket and took out a set of armor from it and put it on their bodies.

This armor is not the same as ordinary armor, the armor is mostly used to protect the body and slow down the damage, and it is made as strong and heavy as possible, and this armor can be seen at a glance to be light and loose, only in the heart, knees, elbows, and face There are copper scale protectors, and the other parts are just wrapped with a layer of bamboo armor similar to mahjong tiles, and it is like standing in front of everyone with four rattan armor soldiers with pointed helmets.

If it's a little strange, it's probably the wrists of these strong men!

He wore a hook like a tiger's hooves and claws on his hand, and he looked cold and sharp.

"Steward Chao, what's the use of wearing beast armor if you don't take a shovel?"

Yue Erpao didn't see that this was the claw of the pangolin, he didn't understand what was so magical about it, Yue Guanchao looked at it a few more times, and immediately guessed the role of this armor, which could buckle such a big pangolin claw on the wrist, either digging a mountain or digging a hole.

Seeing that he didn't know the goods, the housekeeper was not annoyed when he saw Yue Guanchao's face, and waved his hand to explain to the young man:

"It's not a joke, this little brother, you just wait and see the brothers make holes, this is much better than a shovel."

"This thing is a serious chisel hook."

Ma often saw this pair of iron claws, and recognized them at a glance, and when he saw that someone knew the goods, the smile on his face was mixed with a hint of vigilance:

"This little brother really knows the goods, my iron claw is called the scale armor chisel hook, it is a sharp weapon of my sect of the master, have you ever seen such things in other places?"

The bad old man of the housekeeper is very bad, as soon as he opens his mouth, he wants to set the horse's words, the scale armor chisel hook is a sharp weapon of the Chao clan, and naturally it will not fall into the hands of others, once it is obtained by others, it is estimated that there are quite a lot of twists and turns here.
