Chapter 13: The Five Elements of Yin and Yang

Tianjing, with a long history, is one of the four ancient capitals of China.

In the dust of history, six dynasties have established their capitals here, and nearly fifty emperors have ascended the throne here. It is conceivable how many dignitaries and nobles have been buried in this treasure land.

Although many ancient tombs have been destroyed in wars or discovered by the government and tomb robbers, there are also many ancient tombs that are still quietly buried there in this era of advanced technology, as if waiting for someone to dig them up one day.

This ancient tomb discovered by Cheng Zhi is exactly like this.

In addition, Tianjing is a provincial capital, and many places have been developed in recent years, but not all places have been developed, and there are still many places in the suburbs that are sparsely populated or even deserted.

The ancient tomb discovered by Cheng Shi is a wilderness in the southern part of Tianjing, where the grass is full of grass and the hills are undulating. It is precisely because of the sparse population here that Cheng Zhi dared to fight the idea here.

After a long journey of five or six hours, they finally came to the area where the ancient tomb was located. At this time, it was getting late, so the four of them first rested for the night, and then went to the nearby shopping malls and streets to buy some tools in the next few days.

The most common tools for tomb robbery are shovels, flashlights, daggers, hemp rope, and in addition to these, there are also gas analyzers, electric drills, batteries, gas masks, including everything to eat and drink.

In addition, Cheng Zhi also asked Qin Huaiwen, Cao An'an and Wang Chengfeng to rent a cheap jeep again, and secretly bought a lot of potassium nitrate, sulfur, charcoal powder and other materials on the black market to make some gunpowder.

It took three days of preparation for them to fill the two cars in the evening, and on the fourth day they set off with fake license plates before dawn.

When we arrived at the cemetery, the sun was rising. The three of them did not rush down to the tomb, but only opened the entrance to the tomb, and Wang Chengfeng naturally knew the reason.

From a scientific point of view, the air in the ancient tomb has been isolated from the outside air for a long time, and it has been in a gloomy and humid environment for nearly a thousand years, which makes the air in the tomb easy to produce some harmful substances, which will make people poisoned if they breathe it.

This kind of poisonous gas will leave sequelae in the light, and the heavy ones will die on the spot. Now open this entrance to ventilate the air outside, so that you can effectively reduce the harmful gases in the tomb.

From a Taoist point of view, the tomb is located underground for many years, and the yin energy is extremely heavy, and this yin energy can easily corrode the yang energy in the human body. Yang energy here is vitality, and the human body will die without yang energy.

The yang energy in the human body and the yin energy in the tomb are affected by heaven and earth, and when the sun is shining at noon, the yin energy of the tomb will be relatively reduced, and the yang energy in the human body will be improved. If external conditions allow, this is the most suitable time to go to the tomb.

After opening the entrance, the four of them took off the tools for going to the tomb again, and finally hid the car.

As time goes by, the sun is getting more and more abundant, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a bright sun.

Cheng Shi, Qin Huaiwen, and Cao An'an have been vigilantly looking around from the moment the car was hidden, and from time to time they put the gas analyzer in the tomb to measure the air inside.

Seeing that the gas in the tomb was almost ready, they and Wang Chengfeng put on gas masks and prepared to enter with all their tools.

Before entering the cave, an eerie cold air hit him, making Wang Chengfeng shiver, and his face became very unnatural.

Cheng Shi seemed to have expected Wang Chengfeng to be like this, and immediately seized this opportunity to laugh and said, "Why, if you're afraid, you will meet us at the entrance of the cave!"

Maybe Cheng Zhi was afraid that Wang Chengfeng would make trouble for him, so he was the first to get into it after speaking.

Qin Huaiwen and Cao An'an nodded at Wang Chengfeng, and followed into the tomb.

"How can you not go down when you're all here!" Wang Chengfeng clenched his fists and walked down.

Under the illumination of the four lights, Wang Chengfeng found that there were many tombs in the tomb, and some were large and small, and there were many tunnels, and the more he walked inside, the more gloomy and dark it became.

The sound of dripping water nearby was particularly clear at this time, and from time to time there were bursts of indescribable, terrifying-sounding sounds, as if hell was calling them again.

In this environment, there were less than three tombs, not to mention Wang Chengfeng, and even Cao An'an and Qin Huaiwen retreated in their hearts.

I only heard Cao An'an couldn't help but persuade: "Old Cheng, this place looks evil, why don't we stop it and go back and do something serious." ”

"Hmph, go back, then who will reimburse us for the money we spent so much to buy tools, you?" Lao Cheng's tone was not good, obviously he had no intention of returning it.

Part of the money for buying tools was also given by Cao An'an, and of course he would not reimburse Cheng Zhi for the tool money, so he could only continue to move forward.

Qin Huaiwen saw Cao An'an's face turned pale and did not speak very interestingly. Wang Chengfeng insisted even more.

The four of them walked around here for about an hour, and found that there were really five burial chambers and thirteen secret passages as drawn on Cheng Zhitu, and they also found that there were some murals on the walls of the tomb, and there were several stone statues in the tomb, and other things had not been found for the time being.

Cheng Zhi, Qin Huaiwen, and Cao An'an each picked up a hammer and gently tapped it on the surrounding walls, trying to confirm the main burial chamber of the tomb through this method.

However, the sound was almost the same everywhere they struck, and it was impossible to discern the location of the main burial chamber.

"Perhaps, the door of the main burial chamber is not around, but on the ground!" Wang Chengfeng said suddenly.

The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.

When he said this, he reminded Cheng Zhi, Cao An'an, and Qin Huaiwen. Several of them hurried to the middle of the tomb and repeatedly hit the ground with hammers, just listening to the sound of "dong dong" from the ground, they knew that it was hollow below, and the three of them were immediately overjoyed.

"Let's see if there are any mechanisms or anything like that!" After confirming that there was a burial chamber underground, Cheng Zhi said to everyone.

In this burial chamber, explosives are not allowed until absolutely necessary. On the one hand, it is easy to blow up the place with explosives, and on the other hand, if the explosives are too loud, they may attract the attention of passers-by, and the best way is to find some pattern in the tomb to open it.

Cheng Shi, Qin Huaiwen, and Cao An'an used flashlights to divide three directions to find clues around.

On closer inspection, in addition to the five stone statues on the side of the tomb, there is a shallow yin and yang gossip diagram with a diameter of about five meters in the middle. There are five more icons on the circle of Yin and Yang Bagua, which are a tree, a bonfire, a river, a pile of soil, and a gold ingot.

These five icons are very regular, and they are connected to just one regular pentagon.

Cao An'an looked at these five icons and muttered: "There are five elements on Taiji, and there are five stone statues on the side of the tomb, do they just correspond to metal, wood, water, fire, and earth?"

Cheng Zhi nodded in agreement: "Very likely, let's try it!"

Although they said that Wang Chengfeng had only seen it on TV series, he did not have a negative attitude, because he never doubted the wisdom of the ancients.

After Cheng Zhi finished speaking, Qin Huaiwen was the first to rush to a stone statue and swept the stone statue in front of him up and down with a flashlight. Suddenly, he shouted, "Look, there's a 'fire' word on the back of this statue!"

Cheng Zhi, Cao An'an, and Wang Chengfeng hurriedly walked over, and sure enough, they saw the word "fire" engraved on the back of the stone statue.

"Push it over!" Cheng Zhi was overjoyed and said to the three of them.

With the efforts of the four people, the stone statue weighing hundreds of pounds was pushed onto the icon of a bonfire in a few breaths.

One was done, and the other four stone statues were quickly pushed into their corresponding positions.

At this time, both Cheng Zhi and Wang Chengfeng were inexplicably nervous, staring at the stone statue and Taiji diagram in front of them, and praying silently in their hearts.

Suddenly, the floor of the burial chamber trembled slightly, and the four of them couldn't help but take a step back to the door.

As soon as the four of them retreated, the ground trembled twice, and then there was a rumbling sound. In the afterglow of the flashlight, they saw a piece of floor slowly moving away from the corner of the burial chamber.
