Chapter 135: Discovery
Zhao Guangyuan kicked a protrusion, staggered, and paused.
When I looked down, I didn't know what it was, the size of a raised fist, buried by dead branches and rotten leaves. The glance is about to leave, and it doesn't care.
Take two steps, and suddenly stop.
glanced at the pit site that had just circled the feet next to it, and then at the protrusion in front of him. So, is it squatting in this place? What would the kid be doing?
At that time, he focused on studying the pit, thinking that the pit would allow Changzhi to pass through, so he was anxious to find a way to pass through it, and he didn't care much about Changzhi. Later, he found that the child was picking up firewood farther and farther, and was still digging and burying it in the ground, so he called him back with a look of disgust.
It's only been a long time, but the child he disliked at that time has become his own son.
Zhao Guangyuan smiled. After walking two steps to the protruding place, I flicked it with my toes, brushed off the dead branches and rotten leaves on it, exposed a layer of soil on it, and then brushed it with the tips of my shoes, and a gray pottery-like thing was exposed.
Zhao Guangyuan frowned, squatted down, stared at it, and started directly......
After digging both sides and digging down, only a third of it was revealed, and Zhao Guangyuan recognized it, it was the Zhenling Beast!
Zhao Guangyuan's hand stopped, his arm supporting his half-bent thigh, staring at the Zhenling Beast in front of him.
Of course he knew about the Zhenling Beast. After six years of guarding the imperial tomb, he knew that there were Zhenling beasts in and around the underground palace of each mausoleum. The Zhenling Beast is a dark weapon, made into the appearance of a fierce beast, and buried around the mausoleum, one is to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil, and the other is to protect the safety of the tomb owner.
It's just that this Zhenling beast shouldn't be buried in the ground, how can it be exposed on the surface?
Was it still dug up by the time of the chief?
Eighteen years ago, Zhao Gang said that the dragon qi of the imperial tomb collapsed, and filled ten boys and girls, and before the summer solstice this year, he said that the dragon qi collapsed, but Zhao Gang did not use the method of human sacrifice again, but did a ritual in the imperial tomb and the Taimiao.
Summer solstice?
On the summer solstice, Zhao just arrived at the main mausoleum of the imperial mausoleum, two days before the summer solstice, Changzhi fell into the pit and wore to Xia'er's world, and he was fed poisonous wine by the palace people on the night of the summer solstice, and he also arrived in Xia'er's world.
Zhao Guangyuan stood up in shock!
Lowered his head to stare at the Zhenling Beast. There is no action.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!" Cao Cuo came panting, and saw His Highness standing there with his head bowed from a distance, and he didn't know if something was wrong.
Cao Cuo's heart was pounding, and he couldn't wait to be like Fang Er, swish, and dodged to His Royal Highness's side.
"Don't come here!" Zhao Guangyuan drank.
Cao Cuo ran in a hurry, and was so frightened by this shout that he almost fell to the ground, and he was able to stand firmly. Nailed to the ground and did not move, looking at the back of His Highness, his eyes were puzzled.
Zhao Guangyuan's mind was in a mess, thinking about what had happened during this time......
At the summer solstice, what did Zhao Gang do in the imperial mausoleum, and did he come here?
He remembered that day he and Chang went to the mountain, and it turned out that Changzhi seemed to have done something to this Zhenling beast. Later, he didn't find a way to go there, and he didn't do anything with Changzhi, but he was suddenly able to pass through again.
So maybe it's because of this Zhenling Beast? Is it so long that the position of the Zhenling Beast has been moved?
It must have moved!
It must have been so long that he inadvertently moved the Zhenling Beast buried by Zhao Gang!
After the summer solstice, Zhao Gang blocked the routed dragon qi, so he and Changzhi couldn't go there. Later, he and Chang went to the mountain to find a way, and they moved this Zhenling beast, so their father and son could go to Xia'er's side again!
Is that so?
So why can't he go there now?
Zhao Guangyuan felt that he had caught something, but he didn't seem to have it. This Zhenling Beast must be about something. He can't do nothing.
Always have to give it a try, he misses them so much.
Hurriedly squatted down, and began to eagerly dig the soil with his hands, and the soil was lifted to both sides of his body, and Cao Cuo, who was standing far behind him, soon saw two small mounds piled up.
Your Highness is digging the earth!
Cao Cuo looked at the hoe in his hand and raised his voice from afar: "Your Highness, do you want a hoe?" ”
But Zhao Guangyuan didn't give the slightest reaction.
Cao Cuo wanted to step forward, but he didn't dare, so he was so anxious that he stood in place and craned his neck to watch.
Finally, Zhao Guangyuan dug out the Zhenling Beast, which was no more than the height of his calf, carefully placed it on the ground, and stared at it carefully. It's a little unicorn. It wasn't very fierce at all, and it wasn't as fierce as the other Zhenling beasts he had seen.
Now that the Zhenling Beast has been dug up by him, will it have any impact on the Imperial Tomb, and it will have an impact on the Great Qi Guozuo, he can't control it now.
Zhao Guangyuan stroked the dust off the Zhenling Beast and looked at it carefully. I don't know if it played a role in the middle.
As he was watching, he suddenly remembered something, and continued to dig into the pit.
Sure enough, there is an iron box underneath the Zhenling Beast!
It's very new, it seems that this must have been newly buried by Zhao Gang at the time of the summer solstice. At another look, the iron box was still locked, and Zhao Guangyuan used a little ingenuity, and the iron box was opened.
Sure enough, there was a yellow rune paper inside.
Brand new.
It seems that it was indeed newly buried by Zhao Gang.
Zhao Guangyuan's heart was pounding. I couldn't hold back my excitement. I don't know if he and Changzhi have this mausoleum encounter with it, but this must be a key!
Zhao Guangyuan raised his eyes and looked around, remembering the records about feng shui that he had read in "Zhou Yi", and then thinking about what he had seen and recorded in the imperial mausoleum in the past six years, he looked for a few directions and looked for it.
Sure enough, he discovered the existence of the Zhenling Beast in several extremely hidden places.
Unlike the other one, these ones all have their shallow heads exposed.
This is different from what he knows. Shouldn't these be buried in the ground?
Zhao Guangyuan looked at the surrounding environment, then looked up at the sky, and thought in his eyes. Is there anything special about these? Zhao Gang buried it like this on purpose? Let them suck the sun and moon?
If you look closely, the location is extremely hidden, but it is in the best position of the sun and moon.
And what he just dug up seems to have been buried in the ground, could it be that it was buried by mistake? When the boy saw him exposed, he kindly buried him again?
So long enough to inadvertently turn on the switch to go over there?
But why couldn't he go again?
Is it the cause of the Tomb Beast? Or did Zhao Gang do something again?
Zhao Guangyuan returned to the place where the little unicorn was buried, thinking about whether to take it away, but after thinking about it, he buried it back again. It's still covered with earth, but it's in a different direction.
He wanted to try first, but if he didn't, he tried again, and now this was the only hope he saw. He had to give it a try. Gotta give it a try, he missed them so much.
Bury it, take a deep look, and then get up and walk back.
Seeing His Highness coming this way, Cao Cuo hurriedly greeted him with a hoe, "Your Highness." ”
Seeing that His Highness's robe was so dirty that it didn't look like a good thing, he was a little distressed, "What does Your Highness want to do, just tell the old slave to do it, why bother to do it yourself." ”
Look at these hands, they are all stained with dirt, and there is dirt between their fingernails.
Cao Cuo wanted to go forward to wipe it, but was stopped by Zhao Guangyuan. Ordered: "You remember this place, after going down the mountain, go to Wei Deguang in person, say that there are Zhenling beasts buried here, and ask him to send the tomb guards to patrol here day and night, don't let the people and the tomb households come here." ”
Cao Cuo hurriedly nodded: "Yes." This place belongs to the inner perimeter of the imperial mausoleum, and although the mausoleum guards usually do not patrol nearby, there will be no outsiders here. ”
"People from the surrounding Ling villages are not allowed to come here!"
Yes? Cao Cuo looked back, was something wrong? Seeing His Royal Highness's solemn face, Cao Cuo didn't dare to ask again.
I also listened to His Royal Highness's voice and sternly instructed: "Tell Wei Deguang that this matter is important, and only he is allowed to know the reason, and he is not allowed to disclose it, otherwise he will be complicit in the crime!" ”
Cao Cuo was stunned, and said, "Yes." The old slave said word for word with Mr. Wei. ”
