Chapter 46: Canglong grabs the coffin
Liu Baye told me that the dragon shape on the draft picture on that page was Canglong, one of the dragon souls of Kyushu, and the name of this picture was Canglong Grasping Coffin.
Regarding this Japanese note, Liu Baye said that when he went to the Northeast to find the dragon and explore the cave, he happened to meet an old man who was begging.
In order to thank Liu Baye, the old man handed over a yellowed notebook to Liu Baye when he left.
Out of politeness, Liu Baye took it, and after the old man left, Liu Baye looked at it casually and found that it was all Japanese, so he immediately lost interest and threw it on the side of the road.
Just as Liu Baye turned around and was about to leave, a wind suddenly blew on the ground, causing the note to open on its own.
Or maybe it's because the note is too old, under the blowing of the shoveling wind, one of the pages was torn off, and it was impartially scraped on the feet of Liu Baye, which is the manuscript drawing of Canglong grabbing the coffin.
In the Heihe area of the northeast, especially in the area near the Great Khing'an Mountains, there is only one legend that has been passed down for hundreds of years.
Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, there was also a huge mountain fire in the Great Khing'an Mountains, and the culprit of the mountain fire was a corpse that had become a Taoist.
Legend has it that the corpse was several feet long, its body was red, and its whole body flowed with blood as hot as lava.
Later, a dragon slaying Taoist with advanced Taoism passed through this, intending to kill the dragon guarding here, but he never thought that he would encounter a corpse in the process of killing.
Compared with Canglong, the corpse is the embodiment of sin, and the Taoist killed it, but the corpse escaped into the primeval forest of the Great Xing'an Mountains after being injured.
Because of the heat itself, coupled with the injury, the hot blood flowed wantonly, which caused a mountain fire at that time.
Although the mountain fire was caused by corpses, the person had unshirkable joint and several responsibility.
Seeing that the mountain fire was out of control, Canglong, who was also injured and was about to be killed by the Taoist, suddenly said that he could extinguish the mountain fire and descend the corpse, and only begged the Taoist to spare its life.
The Taoist agreed, so the body of the dragon changed into a thousand-zhang body, sucked the river water to extinguish the mountain fire, and even cast the blood of the corpse into a golden coffin, when the corpse town was trapped in it.
There are mines in the mountains, the mines are gold, the five elements of gold give birth to water, and the dragon should be water, so it drilled into the leylines and entrenched in the veins, and it is said that the place where the dragon is located is the veins of gold.
Of course, about this legend, basically no one knows about it in modern times, and Liu Baye also interviewed a few ancient and elderly people before learning from their mouths.
At that time, Liu Baye was like a treasure, so he directly found someone close to him to translate the content of the note, so as to know that what was recorded in the note was the details of how to lead to the golden vein.
At that time, Liu Baye had already calculated, planning to gather contacts and return to the northeast to find the location of the golden vein after returning to Tongcheng, but he unexpectedly learned about the corpse urn under Luoyang, and then got the white jade dragon carving that belonged to one of the dragon souls of Kyushu.
It is precisely because of this that Liu Baye no longer stays at the so-called golden vein, but locks on the legendary dragon and the golden coffin it grasps in its hand, and he concludes that the soul of the dragon can be found in it.
Speaking of which, I understand why Liu Baye came here, it was completely to seek the legendary Kyushu Dragon Soul.
It's just that this journey is too dangerous, and it also buried Dabao's life.
mentioned Dabao, Erbao's face on the side immediately became gloomy, his brother died, how could he not be sad, so two clear tears immediately appeared on Erbao's gloomy face.
"Brother Erbao, the festival mourns and changes."
I opened my mouth to comfort.
Liu Baye also raised his hand at this time and patted Erbao's shoulder and said, "Erbao, don't worry, when I go back, I will definitely search for your brother's bones and bury him thickly, I will not let my brother bury his bones elsewhere." ”
Hearing this, Erbao wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and looked at Liu Baye with gratitude in his eyes, "Eighth Master, the lives of our two brothers are all given by you, and life and death have long been put aside, my Erbao will definitely protect Ba Ye and you!" ”
With that, Erbao turned around and walked forward with the firearm in his hand, inspecting the surrounding situation.
The town in front of him is extremely weird, and the space is very large, or worried about the safety of Erbao, the driver Brother Wang also patrolled together.
I haven't seen Liu Baye for a long time, and I have a lot of things in my stomach that I want to tell him.
I probably don't need to mention the empty-handed trip to the Dunhuang Desert, because Brother Wang may have already conveyed it all to Liu Baye.
I really wanted to tell Liu Baye about the white jade Ying Dragon Eagle being dropped, but I still didn't say it when I opened my mouth, in such an environment, it is indeed a little out of place, once I say it, Liu Baye will inevitably be cold and discouraged because of this.
As for my personal grievances, they are not so important in comparison.
"Dad, woo woo woo ......!"
There was a miserable cry of Xiao Liuzi in his ears, and from a distance, Xiao Liuzi was lying on a corpse covered with blood, wailing in pain.
Seeing this, Liu Baye walked towards the location of Xiao Liuzi, and I hurriedly followed.
Walking to the front, looking at the bloodstained corpse, Liu Baye's face was very gloomy, "Fifth Brother Yuan, I hurt you, I'm sorry." ”
Saying that, Liu Baye bowed deeply at Yuan Wu's corpse.
"Your name is Liuzi, right, your father is gone, and you are already helpless in this world, if you don't dislike it, you will follow me in the future, and I will raise you as an adult."
Xiao Liuzi looked up at Liu Baye with teary eyes, he didn't speak, and then he lay on Yuan Wu's corpse again and cried bitterly......
The ground was littered with rubble that had fallen from the house after the earthquake, and I helped Xiao Liuzi bury Yuan Wu's body simply with rubble.
After resting for a while, Liu Baye stood up from a slightly larger gravel and summoned all of us to him.
"I just took a look at this underworld, and it seems that all the ninefold mechanisms of this maze have been activated, and the entrance to the vein mine should have appeared."
"The maze mechanism, every half an hour is activated, and the reset time should be doubled, that is, an hour, so we have to hurry up and find the entrance within an hour, otherwise when the time comes, we will have to board it for a long time, and what will happen when it is played, no one can predict."
When several people heard this, they knew the urgency of the situation, and they didn't dare to delay, so they immediately scattered in all directions to find the entrance to the so-called vein mine.
I, Xiao Liuzi, Liu Baye, and Erbao and the driver Brother Wang, a total of five of us, scattered in the direction of the five corners to look for it.
During the scattered search, I would see guys probing their brains from time to time, and those people were obviously the subordinates surnamed Tan.
Liu Baye briefly mentioned to me that this surname is Tan, he is not a thief, but a real social person.
I don't know who leaked the news, as soon as Liu Baye arrived in Heihe, he was targeted by this person surnamed Tan, and he also knew Liu Baye's identity and the purpose of coming here.
Forced to buy and sell, as a local snake, the surname Tan has to get a piece of the pie on the grounds that he is a man, otherwise he will directly stab Liu Baye to the local police station.
Helplessly, Liu Baye agreed to the weak request of the surnamed Tan.
As for the background of the person surnamed Tan in Heihe, Liu Baye is not very clear, maybe in addition to dyeing white from black.
I was holding an MP40 assault rifle from Germany during World War II, the body of the gun was very light, but the ammunition capacity was very impressive, as long as I wanted to, it was only a few breaths to shoot all the dozen people surnamed Tan with a single movement of my fingers.
So those guys were afraid of the firearms in my hand, and they only dared to peek at them from a distance, and did not dare to take a step closer, for fear that I would suddenly surprise them.
Another reason for my cowardice is that all the people who were fierce before me were obvious to all, so a fool would not provoke a crazy boy like me.
