Chapter (14): The increasingly rampant Tufuzi
(14) The increasingly rampant Tufuzi
After listening to "Lao Bai" tell this past with affection, she looked at him warmly and smiled at him approvingly. Then he turned around and said quietly to Xiao Qingfeng: "Brother Qingfeng, please forgive my little sister for hiding my true identity from all of you. In fact, my ancestors were originally believers. Xinmen was founded by Han Feizi, the patriarch of the Legalist family, and specialized in undertaking some important missions. No matter what the thorny problem of this mission is, once the believer takes it, it must be passed on from generation to generation and never lose its promise, until the mission truly loses its due value. ”
looked at Xiao Qingfeng, who was smiling and silent, and continued to say: "It was during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and my ancestors were blessed by a generation of strange people, Qingtian Liu Ji and Liu Bowen. Afterwards, Liu Bowen knew the identity of the ancestor, and under his repeated pleas, the ancestor finally took over the mission of guarding the tomb of the king of Longshan. Since then, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and he has silently guarded this royal tomb and the nearby ancient tombs in different capacities, and it is already the ninth generation of the ancestor who saved Lao Bai. Back then, this ancestor had long known that there was a group of cultivating elves in the bottomless pit of Longshan, and he had also secretly observed for a long time. He saw that Lao Bai An was guarding himself and practicing hard, and he had already begun to have the benevolent heart of the immortal family, so he appeared to save him at the critical moment that night. I didn't want Lao Bai to come to the door afterwards, and in order to repay the favor, he also made a blood oath, promising to wait for the king's tomb and the nearby tombs for generations. This is also the main reason why this royal tomb has been completely preserved for hundreds of years. ”
Jingxin paused, turned around, bowed to Lao Bai again, and then said: "Over the years, I have really worked hard for you Longshan clan, and I once again express my most sincere gratitude for the ancestors." In addition, the current royal tomb should have been excavated by the state several decades ago. In other words, as the royal tomb was excavated and developed by the state, the mission of our Nangong clan naturally disappeared. Therefore, I will return the blood spirit talisman to you today, and from now on, we will never see each other......!"
At this point, Xiao Qingfeng finally finished telling everything about the three of them in the secret room.
After listening, the doll stared at Jing Xin with a pair of big eyes, and muttered excitedly: "I'm going to go, my young master of Nangong, I can't imagine that you are the same as the stinky turtle and the heavenly remnant, and you are still some kind of hidden believer in the rivers and lakes." Your letter door will not be the ancient mail door and express delivery door. Tell me what your young master will be capable of, it won't just be a strict mouth and fast legs, hehehe......"
Xiao Qingfeng laughed and said loudly: "You doll, you are too underestimated by your young master of Nangong, she is a real master of the inner family, and I also accidentally discovered it in the old eagle stone cliff today." I'm afraid that your young master Nangong's light body kung fu is still above me, and there is also a shadowless divine needle stunt that can hurt people invisibly. If you don't provoke you in the future, even I may not be able to save you at that time, and there is also a special forces unit, which is the bottomless ......"
Jingxin heard the doll and Xiao Qingfeng sing and harmonize like this, knowing that everyone was still a little dissatisfied with her concealing her identity, her face turned red in a hurry, and she stomped her feet on the spot again and again, and even saw crystal tears swirling in her eyes.
At this time, the lone wolf smiled and said, "Okay, okay, don't be embarrassed for our white-clothed saintess, people will cry angrily after a while." Besides, if it weren't for people today, we wouldn't know where to lie down, maybe we would also be thrown to the old eagle cliff to feed the old eagle, hahaha...... "Everyone responded violently, got up together and toasted a cup of meditation, and then the meditation broke into laughter and returned to a normal smile.
After drinking this glass of wine, Xiao Qingfeng said solemnly: "Even if this bottomless pit matter is over, I don't want to hear a word about it in the future." But now there's a problem, I don't know if you've all noticed. In recent years, not only in the vicinity of Yongsan, but also in several other places where the ancient tombs in YZ City are densely popped, more and more tomb robber gangs have emerged for a while. Most of them have put aside the taboos of those traditional gold-touching captains, and have developed wildly towards a pattern of undisciplined and unscrupulous, even to the point of blatantness. On the one hand, it must be the infinite promotion of human greed driven by interests, and on the other hand, it is also the current relevant regulatory constraints that are not in place, so that they have taken advantage of the loopholes. ”
Laughing Maitreya said: "Yes, I don't know what happened in the past few years, the mountain east of our village has been beaten all over with a Luoyang shovel." Sometimes, overnight, there are seven or eight deep shaft holes on the hillside, and there are often cases of livestock falling and inadvertently falling and injuring themselves. Now the nearby villagers don't dare to go up the mountain alone, and the people are panicked and messy. Occasionally, some people report upwards like a stone in the sea, and slowly no one cares, and I don't know what the civil servants who are receiving taxpayers' money are doing. Later, I even heard that someone stole the urns of modern people and then sold them, which is really speechless. ”
The doll said: "No, the urns of modern people can be sold for a few dollars if they steal them, if they are sick, it should be those good people who spread false rumors." ”
Laughing Maitreya said: "This is a real event in our village, and many people know about it. After the family's funeral, it rained heavily as soon as the grave was built, and everyone went back in a hurry. But after a few days, when the mountain is good, I will go back to fill in the earth and build it. The more I got there, the more wrong it became, as if someone had touched the tombstone, and there were some unusual footprints around. A few of their own people had the courage to reopen the tombstone, and everyone was surprised when they opened it, the urn that was placed inside was gone, and only a small pile of ashes remained. The family didn't dare to speak out for the sake of face, so they quietly bought an urn at a high price, and secretly packed it and buried it. Later, one of them said it inadvertently while drunk, but when he sobered up, he firmly refused to admit that there was such a thing. ”
The prodigal son said: "Yes, in recent years I have heard rumors of some grave robbers going crazy. A few buddies even dared to drive an excavator to rob the tomb with great fanfare, and I heard that the police didn't dare to believe it when they went later, until two bronzes were found in the car next to them, and then they took it seriously. Tell me, what the fuck is this?"
Lone wolf said: "This problem has indeed been very serious in recent years. However, it is not that the state is turning a blind eye, nor is it that the law is not sufficiently restrictive, and this phenomenon is only a few occasional cases. Our country has always adhered to a high-pressure posture against individuals and gangs who steal and smuggle underground cultural relics. Therefore, we should not generalize like this......"
When the little Taoist priest heard the lone wolf say this, his triangular eyes widened, he rolled his eyes, and said coldly: "What's the matter, Brother Wolf, listen to what you mean, it's the Hou Ye who said something wrong, is it? I don't know anything else, but now near our YZ City, I have heard a lot of people talking about this rampant Tufuzi." Why can't we all talk and gossip behind closed doors? It can't be that Hou Ye said something casually, even if it is a partial generalization, right?"
Mengshan Turtle saw that the tone of the little Taoist priest was a little wrong, and quickly stopped his words and said, "Okay, okay." Brother Tiancripple, you misunderstood our brother wolf, what our brother wolf means is that the restraint of our country's laws is certain. However, isn't there such a sentence - the sutra is a good sutra, but it makes some monks read it badly. ”
Mengshan Turtle looked at the lone wolf with a smile, and then said: "Of course, don't be angry when I say this, Brother Wolf, I really met a buddy who really does this job." When the two of them were eating together, this guy drank too much, and people actually said in front of me that the water in the underworld meal in our YZ City was deep. At that time, I was also idle, so I followed him and praised him a few words, so that he could continue to show off. Not to mention, as soon as people say it, we are really convinced. What's the matter, brothers, do you want to hear what other insiders have to say?"
Mengshan Turtle looked at everyone's eager eyes, and continued with a smile: "This guy said that he has been in this industry for more than ten years, almost twenty years, and he has never really 'fallen' into it. I tout him for his great skills, his skill, his prudence, and his wide range of ways. But what he said, he said that what I said was bullshit. If you want to eat this food in YZ City, you must understand the rules here, as long as you understand the rules, even if you are a roadside beggar, you can make a lot of money safely. I pretended to be very adoring and toasted him again and again. He finally told the truth, it turned out that there was a real leader in our YZ City who loved 'handicraft collection', and he didn't know who it was. But the leader often hinted to his subordinates that they would pay him some 'handicrafts' from time to time, and at the same time, he would give them back in some respects. ”
Mengshan Turtle looked at the puzzled doll and meditation, and said seriously: "These subordinates really have a hard time when they see that the leader has this hobby, because they know what the leader's so-called 'handicrafts' are. It was then that a clever subordinate thought of the 'hard underground workers', and he found a so-called 'expert' through connections. They made a 'gentleman's agreement': this 'connoisseur' was responsible for providing him with some clean 'crafts' on a regular basis, and he was responsible for operating this 'connoisseur' as a 'special agent' of the relevant department, also called an 'informant'. They agreed that this person could instruct his subordinates to carry out proper work within a certain range, or they could go out to 'work across districts', but they had to bear the risks outside. When the wind is tight in the relevant departments, they take the initiative to hand over a few irrelevant 'bad legs', and when necessary, provide information and point out a few groups of foreign 'slippers'. In this way, there will be an explanation from above, and when the storm is over, you can regain your strength and carry out business with confidence. As for those simple-minded 'hard legs' and helpless 'slippers', they don't know anything about their true insiders, and it naturally doesn't hurt to fall into them, so they can only blame their own fate. ”
Jing Xin hated and said: "Perhaps, this is the fundamental reason why these people's wildfires can't be burned and reborn in the spring breeze." Fortunately, the state is now vigorously promoting a purge campaign to fight corruption and promote honesty and strict self-discipline. I think that in the near future, these deeply hidden moths will be cleared out and given the judgment they deserve. And those so-called 'underground workers' who have lost their special protection will all be punished accordingly, after all, it is 'Skynet is restored but not leaked'. ”
Seeing that it's not early, the doll suggests that everyone stop discussing these national events that don't seem to have much to do with everyone. So, everyone began to push the cup and change the lamp, and drank happily. After being full of wine and food, the doll shouted that she wanted to go to KTV quietly and ask everyone to have a good 'hi', even if it was her reparation to everyone. Jing Xin readily agreed, because she was finally liberated today, and the moment she returned the Blood Spirit Rune to "Lao Bai", everything in the past could be regarded as a perfect end.
It's just that what she never expected was that although her so-called identity as a messenger of the letter has been completely concluded, there are still too many mysteries and unknowns waiting for her and her friends in the days to come......
Volume 2: The Great Protector of the Sect of the Ten Thousand Caves in Dongshan
It has been more than a month since the bottomless pit of Longshan happened, and this day happened to be another Saturday. It's not even five o'clock in the morning, and the doll is arguing in the group, going to the most famous Dongshan Mountain in YZ City to explore the cave. It just so happened that everyone didn't have anything important, so they met at six o'clock to ride a mountain bike to the entrance of the national highway to gather, and from there they went directly to the Dongshan Scenic Area 30 kilometers away.
After more than an hour of riding, it was not yet eight o'clock, and everyone arrived near the Dongshan Scenic Area. The lone wolf first took everyone to put the car in a small farm yard, and then everyone washed their faces and had a little breakfast here. After eating, everyone took a short rest, checked their equipment, filled up their drinking water, and began to prepare to go up the mountain.
Speaking of Dongshan, YZ City is a famous mountain and a famous scenic spot in the country. Although the altitude is not very high, the natural landscape is beautiful and peculiar, the religious culture has a long history, it is an important place for Taoism and Buddhism, and it is also a mountain forest loved by Confucian teachers. On the mountain, the palace temple nunnery is hundreds, the tile joints are uneven, scattered between the mountains, and the red wall of the green tiles is very spectacular.
The mountains and rivers of Dongshan are majestic, the cave is secluded, and there are many beautiful stories and legends. In particular, the cave in Higashiyama is the most famous. There are many natural caves under the boulders, and it is said that there are as many as 100 caves. The caves are as big as a wide court, as small as a fighting room, vertical and horizontal, winding paths are secluded, deep and unfathomable; and there are many springs in the caves, and a hundred springs converge under the connection of many caves; under the direct sunlight and the reflection of mountains and rocks, the illusion is even more.
In addition, the Dongshan mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is said that there are many villagers living in this mountain since ancient times. In the era of ancient wars, many nearby people, in order to resist bandits or rebels, would meet up the mountain and build a siege in a dangerous place. Sometimes, they even directly occupy those Taoist temples and nunnery, gathering people to protect themselves. Now in the dangerous places on the mountain, the remains of those walled villages can still be seen everywhere. There have been many real tragic stories here, and of course there are many legends that cannot be verified.
Among these stories and legends, the most famous and the most sensitive to the world is that in a giant cave that claims to be able to accommodate 10,000 people called the 10,000-person cave in the back mountain of Dongshan, there is a huge treasure of the rebel army. Legend has it that this treasure was left behind when the sensational Sect Army and the Banner Army were defeated and retreated. It is said that a large amount of gold and silver treasures were used to prepare for the comeback, and the amount was huge. It is the legend of this treasure that has attracted countless good people to explore, but no one has ever really found the giant cave, let alone obtained the treasure inside. Maybe it's a legend, but it's a legend after all, and it has slowly become a topic of conversation for the locals after dinner.
