Wushan Divine Coffin Chapter 2: The Curse of the Blood Snake
"Mr. Feng, can you open the skylight and say something bright, what does this ghost have to do with us?" I saw that Xiaowan had no idea of leaving, so I simply sat down and lit a spring ploughing, but before I could take two puffs, the man outside the door walked in and grabbed the cigarette and extinguished it in his hand, and said stupidly: "Mr. Feng is not in good health." ”
Sure enough, the man's words were as strong as Feng Shichang coughed violently, and many green tendons were exposed on his face.
"There is also the same substance left in the incorruptible corpse on this talisman." He put his handkerchief to his mouth and coughed lightly.
At this time, I finally understood what he meant, this Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman has the same unknown substance as the body of the immortal corpse, which means that the real mobilization of the dead is not to rely on the power of the talisman card, but to give them the same medicine as the non-rotting corpse, which shows that this elixir has flowed from Inner Mongolia to the Central Plains more than a thousand years ago, and was used by the emperor for military attacks.
"What happened to the non-rotting corpse you got?" I think of what Feng Shichang said before, if Liu Yu can rely on this medicine to resurrect the dead, then the immortal corpse he got in his hands is also likely to come back to life.
Only then did he show a hint of a smile: "It seems that you are not too stupid, just forty days after the immortal corpse arrived in Nanjing, he disappeared without a trace in the closely monitored laboratory. ”
Feng Shichang didn't go around the bend anymore, and talked straight about the causes and consequences of a series of things: because of the disappearance of the incorruptible corpse, they were even more convinced that this unknown substance was the key to bringing people back to life, so they began to search for the whereabouts of the incorruptible corpse and the traces of other incorruptible corpses in Busol Village on a large scale, and he and Lao Tong also entered the tomb group of Piluo and were accidentally sucked into the spatial vortex and lost the clue of the golden Piluo immortal elixir, until the crack of the forbidden cave was opened half a year ago.
I told him that this time I was afraid that I would disappoint her again, not only did half of us die in Inner Mongolia, but even the forbidden cave was swallowed by mercury traps, and any clues have disappeared after more than a year, and it seems that the secret of the elixir of immortality has been lost.
Now that we basically know the cause and effect of this incident, now that Lao Tong has passed away, there is no need for us to continue to entangle, take Xiaowan's hand and stand up and prepare to leave.
"Mr. Feng, the way of heaven is good reincarnation, how can anyone be immortal and immortal, we will have no time in the future." I ridiculed him, after all, if he hadn't organized this expedition, Lao Tong wouldn't have died.
I thought that Feng Shichang would show a look of loss, but he didn't expect it to look indifferent, he said that this series of things was just a bureau, a plan arranged by a person.
I wondered if he couldn't stand the stimulation and went crazy, and actually said such nonsense, the forbidden cave was entered by us after a lot of hard work, five levels and six generals, how could it be a plan arranged by her.
"Look at your elbows." Seeing my suspicious face, he said lightly.
I turned my arm around and looked at my elbow, there was a one-centimeter-long red meridian on it, I turned Xiao Wan's elbow over, she also had one!
I looked at him in confusion, and he rolled up his sleeves and turned his wrist around, revealing a red vein that ran through his arm.
"What is this?" I swallowed, vaguely uneasy.
"A curse, a curse from the god Vira." He lowered his sleeves and shook his head and sighed.
It turned out that the village of Busol had prevented the villagers from entering the forbidden cave for generations, not only to protect the temple from destruction, but also because a curse had been planted in the tomb, which would come like a poison once entered.
Xiao Wan and I looked at each other, why didn't we notice the changes in our bodies on weekdays, this kind of accident came too suddenly, and we didn't have the slightest mental preparation.
I asked Feng Shichang if he knew that this was a curse, was there no way to crack it? Just like the curse set by Tasha, it stands to reason that there should be a special way to break it.
I was despaired by Feng Shichang's answer, saying that he had noticed a change in his body when he returned to Nanjing from Inner Mongolia 12 years ago, and that after a series of investigations, he had finally found the cause in a book by Busol.
"The fireball descended from heaven to the earth and became the second kingdom of the god Kimpira, and after resurrecting it with the elixir of immortality, it planted a curse on everyone: those who peep into the secrets of the god Kimpira will be devoured by the blood serpent, and when the blood snake grows to the palm of the hand, the flowing blood will be drunk by it, and the body will perish like dead wood."
Feng Shichang put a book with python skin on the coffee table and read out that passage in his mouth.
I pointed to Feng Shichang's hand, and the blood vein had extended to his wrist, didn't it mean that his days were not long.
"My dad should have fallen for this curse as well, so the purpose of your organization to go to Inner Mongolia this time is not a cultural relic at all." Xiao Wan suddenly stood up and said excitedly, she didn't understand why Lao Tong would let her go with her since she knew that she would be cursed if she entered the forbidden cave.
Feng Shichang made a gesture to signal her calmness, turned the book two pages and continued to explain: "The blood snake will not be destroyed with death, it will flow into every bloodline of the family until it is completely destroyed. That is to say, after Lao Tong dies, even if you have not been to the forbidden cave, you will inherit the curse of this blood snake in some special way. ”
Now I can be considered to have completely understood, our trip to Inner Mongolia this time is completely a game, a well-planned scam, the purpose is to make Xiaowan get cursed as soon as possible, so as to believe what Feng Shichang said, but I still have one of the most important doubts, the hexagonal pattern king mirror and red beads stolen for Goose Mountain happen to be the key to opening the Forbidden Cave of Piluo?
I confided my doubts, and Feng Shichang confided the truth, but what he said made my jaw almost fall to the ground in shock, because he said that my master Lao Li Tou had something to do with it!
From Feng Shichang's mouth, I learned that my old Li Tou is not only a master of feng shui, but also an explorer of the Huanyang Group, and one of the participants of the trip to Inner Mongolia twelve years ago.
I told him not to sell it, since there must be a reason why we went to the forbidden cave for nothing, and this reason is probably related to the clue to lift the curse.
Feng Shichang smiled again, saying that the unknown substance in the body of the immortal corpse had played a role in him, and the growth rate of his and Lao Tong's bloodlines had gradually slowed down in recent years, and he guessed that this substance was the key to lifting the curse, and this substance was most likely the immortal medicine taken by the god Piluo.
In the vast world, finding a person is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and no one has ever seen the illusory elixir of immortality, where can we find it?
"Wushan, Wushan hides immortal medicine." Feng Shichang returned succinctly and clearly.
The tea I had just drunk in my throat almost squirted: "Now that you know where you are and what you are bluffing here, you can just send employees to search, anyway, with such a deep background, it is not impossible to get an army." ”
Feng Shichang explained that Wushan is not a specific mountain, but a continuous group of peaks across the border of Hubei, Chongqing and Hunan, and that over the years, more than a dozen expedition teams have been sent to investigate the work, and finally found clues in the mountains of Wuyunding, Fengjie County, Chongqing.
"If you have a clue, go straight to it, and it's not a waste of time to talk to us here." I was furious when I heard this, since we had already found the relevant clues before we went to Inner Mongolia, why did we take such a big risk just to make us believe in the authenticity of the curse? This has cost a lot of lives!
"Three expeditions, a total of 38 people, all of whom were killed at Longwang Beach, if it weren't for the fact that there was really no way, they wouldn't have gone around in a big circle and set up such a trap to trick you." Feng Shichang said.
Hearing this, I was even more angry, I finally escaped from Inner Mongolia, and now I want us to die, 38 people from the three expeditions have been sacrificed, what can we do to go, it's not a dead word, I told Feng Shichang that you are too inauthentic, we are a few young people who have been played around by you, there is no appearance of being an elder, we are the same as the motherland, how can we be put to death like this.
Feng Shichang didn't answer, picked up the phone on the desk and whispered, "Let Professor Cheng come in." ”
As soon as the phone was put down, there was a knock on the door, and with Feng Shichang's answer, a handsome young man of my age walked in.
"This is Professor Cheng Xuesong, and he is also your colleague who went to investigate this time." Feng Shichang made an introduction.
I haven't agreed to look for Wushan immortal medicine, let alone become a colleague with this young man, I immediately made a gesture of opposition, saying that the immortal medicine and Wushan have nothing to do with me, they will go if they want to, I won't wade into this troubled water.
Xiao Wan was also angry in her heart after listening to it for so long, so we made a little eye contact and then stood up and walked to the door.
Just as the door was opened and he was about to leave, the man spoke: "Only those who have been cursed by the blood snake can enter Wushan, and your time is running out." ”
I turned around and was about to reply to him, but he was the first to roll up his cuffs, revealing the mark of the blood snake that was as cursed as I was!
