Holy Bone

Chapter 232 The lights in the southeast corner are off without touching the gold!Little brother, get out!

"Awu, Qingsheng, prepare to use explosives, and directly blow open the door of this tomb."

The captain's method is very rough and simple.

Du Wei is a general in the army.

It is not surprising that he went down the Yinyi River with explosives belonging to the imperial court.

Just as two burly men stepped out from among the iron cavalry guards, holding explosives in their hands, when they were about to blow open the door of the tomb, they had been cutting their swords dumbly, but suddenly called the captain and the others to stop.

"This tomb door cannot be bombed."

"This tomb door is sealed with lead and mercury venom left over from Taoist alchemy. Once the tomb door is blown open, so many of us will not be able to escape the highly poisonous lead and mercury venom and gas."

Jianjian suddenly spoke, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Jin An's heart skipped a beat.

As the saying goes, a big tree attracts the wind.

really.

The captain looked carefully at Jianjian this time: "Little brother Jianjian, did you see any problem with this tomb door?"

Chi Jian didn't answer right away, but turned his head to look at Jin An. It was too late for Jin An to stop him, so he could only nod towards Chi Jian and let Chi Jian answer the captain's question.

With Jin An's approval, Chi Jian replied dumbly: "The gate of this tomb is black as a whole, like Lei Gongmo. It seems that black stones are deliberately used to highlight the evil plans of the tomb gate mountain, so as to scare away those who enter the tomb. But Lei Gongmo It is rarely seen in normal times, and most of them are in the shape of sporadic stars and raindrops, and it is basically rare to see such a large piece of Lei Gongmo used to polish the tomb door."

"It should be that there is a hollow layer in the door of the tomb, which seals the lead and mercury venom used by the Taoist alchemy. Over the years, it slowly erodes the stone, so it gradually turns black..."

This was the first time that Chi Jiantou said such a long paragraph at once.

Both Jin An and the old Taoist stared at Jian Jian in surprise.

Since entering the cemetery, the performance of cutting the sword along the way has become more and more active, like a precursor before awakening the memory.

Hearing what Chijian said, the captain showed interest, and was very interested in Chijian: "It seems that the Taoist priests of the Wuzang Taoist Temple have their own strengths, and each of them has extraordinary abilities. The Taoist priest of Jin'an is good at subduing demons. Demon, Chen Dao is good at geomantic omen, metaphysics, geomantic acupoints, little brother Chijian also knows a lot about going to the tomb?"

Jin An secretly frowned inadvertently.

Some worried that the captain would ask about the origin of the sword and break the casserole.

fortunately.

Du Wei didn't ask about the origin of the tomb door, the most important thing right now is how to open the tomb door, Du Wei asked Jian Jian: "Since little brother Sha Jian can see the origin of this tomb door, I don't know how little brother Sha Jian can do it." Is there a way to open this tomb door?"

The captain seemed to really believe what Chi Jian said.

He didn't ask his subordinates to rush to open the tomb door with explosives, but wanted to hear how the sword could open the tomb door.

If the door of this tomb is really sealed, the lead and mercury left over from Taoist alchemy are highly poisonous.

When the time comes to blow up the tomb door, they must not only be careful of the highly poisonous lead and mercury, but also beware of the highly poisonous gas that is volatilized by the highly poisonous lead and mercury.

These poisonous gases, the living will die if they touch them.

Here is another cave in the mountainside with a closed environment.

If they had to wait for the highly poisonous gas to dissipate naturally, they might not be able to enter the tomb in ten and a half months.

Therefore, regardless of whether what Chi Jian said was true or not, the captain could not afford to take this risk, and could not delay the ten days and a half months.

Cutting the sword with a dull face, he walked to the door of the tomb, and began to grope carefully on the door of the tomb, not afraid of the evil carvings on the door of the tomb.

"Like the craftsmen who built the ancient tomb, on the day when the ancient tomb was built, they would be killed by the owner of the tomb and buried in the burial pit or sealed in the tomb to prevent these craftsmen from revealing the location of the ancient tomb. For thousands of years , the craftsman and the tomb owner have been fighting wits and courage, and the craftsman will secretly leave secret passages for himself when building the ancient tomb in order to survive..."

When he said this, he paused for sharpening his sword, as if he had touched something on the door of the tomb, and then concentrated on one point and pushed it hard a few times.

click-

Because of the dark environment, the door of the tomb, which seemed to be integrated as a whole, actually left a movable secret passage, which was pushed inward by the sword that could only accommodate one person crawling through the secret passage.

Seeing that Jian Jian had found a way out, everyone's eyes lit up.

At the beginning, he looked at the dull and silent sword sharpener with admiration.

Only Jin An and the old Taoist were unhappy.

Because the ancestors had a saying that "a big tree attracts the wind".

Jin An decided to wait for a chance to find someone else, secretly say hello to Pai Jian, and try to make a word of it, don't expose our identity as Master Pirates.

"Little brother Jianjian is really amazing. He can see the hidden mechanism of the tomb door and carefully find out the secret escape routes left by the craftsmen. Little brother Jianjian knows a thing or two about tomb robbery?" Du Wei finally asked. The origin of the sword was played.

The one who should come can't escape.

Fortunately, Jin An had already thought up his words, so he took the initiative to stand up and explain for Jian Jian: "The Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera is willing to save the people and the common people, and it is obligatory to kill demons and demons. So occasionally a few tomb robbers come to the door for help after running into evil. My apprentice is eager to learn, and it seems logical to hear some knowledge about tomb robbers from the tomb robbers, right?"

Jin An speaks righteously and righteously, with awe-inspiring righteousness, a righteous and tragic expression of worrying about the world's worries.

The captain thought for a while, then smiled at Jin'an: "It's really logical."

Now that the secret passage to the tomb door was found, everyone began to enter the cemetery one by one in an orderly manner, but before entering the cemetery, someone shouted to stop everyone.

This time it was Jin An who stopped everyone.

Jin An found a torch and threw it directly into the tomb behind the narrow tunnel behind the tomb door. Seeing that the torch had been burning normally and was not extinguished due to lack of oxygen, he went in with confidence.

Jin An: "This ancient tomb has been closed for so long, and no one knows whether the tomb is sealed or whether there are ventilation holes to the outside world. Be careful, and you will always be prepared."

"Couldn't Master Jin'an's thoughtfulness be influenced by the tomb robber's exorcism?" Captain Du blinked at Jin'an.

Jin An looked directly at the captain without fear: "This should also be logical, right?"

Du Wei laughed: "Haha, Daoist Jin'an is right, and it is indeed reasonable."

After the captain laughed, he waved his hand and went down to the tomb.

This time, everyone successfully climbed through the tunnel.

Those iron cavalry guards in heavy armor were a bit more troublesome. They took off their armor and dismantled the tower shield, and after entering the ancient tomb, put them on again, which took a lot of time.

Behind the gate of the tomb is a passageway, which is quite spacious, and it was a passage carved out of the mountain wall with artificial force, and there are still many traces of artificial excavation on the cave wall.

When I was outside at first, I didn't notice it. After I went through the tomb door, I found that there were more than a dozen dead bodies lying behind the tomb door.

Those people have been dead for many years.

Already only bones remained.

The clothes on the bones were also rotting a lot, covering them with a thick layer of dust.

After peeling off the dust on the clothes, they were all burlap clothes of ordinary people.

"Abbot, could it be that these people are the poor craftsmen who were trapped in the tomb after the construction of the cemetery? The ghost instrument on the door was killed behind the tomb door."

The old monk Kongming, who was old but strong and wore a large Buddhist rosary around his neck, knelt down to examine the bones and said.

At this time, everyone also noticed that the death methods of these corpses were all the same without exception.

It turned out that the bones near the eye sockets were cracked and cracked.

It was as if someone had ripped the eye sockets open, cut out the eyeballs in the eye sockets, and received a brutal death penalty before death.

Looking at the dead bones in these cemetery exposed corpses on the ground, in this dark and deep corridor, it seems that they can still hear their screams before they died hundreds of years ago, and the longing for their families, parents, wives and children.

Everyone showed a look of dismay.

They are very clear.

Even if these craftsmen of ordinary people can escape by chance, they can't escape so many weird and fierce places outside.

To these ordinary people, those ferocious places are a desperate situation where there are ten deaths and no life.

After saying “excuse me” to these poor people’s bones on the ground, everyone continued to walk deep into the corridor.

Going in this corridor, stone steps began to appear, and as they walked higher and higher, the terrain rose, and they went deeper into the mountainside.

These stone steps were all excavated piece by piece in the mountainside, using manpower and human life.

The surface is rough with obvious digging marks.

"The terrain is getting higher and higher, the road is dry, covered with dust, not even a moss, it's strange...Little brother, if this tomb is really buried with the Dragon King, this ancient tomb is the Dragon King's Dragon Palace, isn't it? Should it be soaked in the Yinyi River?"

"Because the Dragon King loves water."

"But why is it doing the opposite here, and the terrain is getting higher and higher, as if you don't want the Dragon King to gain power?"

The old Taoist held the torch in one hand, and covered his mouth and nose with the wide sleeve of his Taoist robe in the other to prevent inhalation of dust.

This ancient tomb has been sealed for too long.

The stone steps were covered with a thick layer of dust.

The airflow driven by people walking around blows the dust on the stone steps. Under the dim light of the torches, there are a lot of dust particles floating in the air.

"It is indeed a bit strange."

Jin'an, the old Taoist priest, Jian Jian, the country witch, and General Duwei walked in the forefront.

Because he showed his skills in cutting the sword before, the captain specially invited several people from the Wu Zang Taoist Temple to walk with him and lead the way.

After passing the stone steps cut in the mountain wall, they entered a tomb on a large platform.

This tomb is huge.

Even if there are so many of them, they are not enough.

The first thing I saw at first sight was a sarcophagus in the center of the tomb.

There is a huge cast iron stele on the inner and outer sarcophagus, writing the life story of the owner of the tomb. The cast iron stele is rough and simple, but it is thick and heavy. It is estimated that it is not much lighter than a gate weighing several tons.

It seems that it is just to use weight to suppress the things inside the sarcophagus, so you don't care whether the appearance is beautiful?

And after so many years, the surface of the pig iron monument has long been decayed.

Even those handwritings have already been corroded by the years, and a lot of them have been damaged, and there are only a few of them left.

Under the light of the torches, Jin An and the others also noticed that the four walls of the tomb were carved with murals.

Those murals carved with people, livestock, followers...

They all describe the life and past events of the owner of the tomb, all of which are luxurious and extravagant, with retinues surrounding the mountains when hunting, and hundreds of followers when traveling.

"It takes such a big battle for a trip, I'm afraid it's not much better than the royal family. Is the owner of the tomb the Dragon King? Or the ruler of a small country in the past?"

The old Taoist was amazed and envious, and just wanted to turn his head to continue the discussion with Jin An, but Jin An asked him which part of the tomb was the southeast corner.

Old Taoist: "?"

Fortunately, when the old Taoist broke through the Qimen Dunjia game before, he had already figured out the location of the underground, so the old Taoist immediately pointed to a corner, and then asked curiously: "Little brother, what are you doing? Why are you putting a torch in the southeast corner?" ?”

Jin An had a very serious expression on his face: "People light lamps, ghosts blow them, and the southeast corner lights don't touch gold."

The old Taoist was stunned: "Little brother, are you very experienced?"

After the old Taoist finished speaking, he nodded in agreement: "However, little brother, you are right. The southeast corner is indeed the most important Fengmen Xun hexagram in the yin house. The light in the southeast corner is off, which means that the air in this tomb is thin. It is not suitable for living people to stay in the tomb. Otherwise, they will suffocate and die in the tomb."

"The cemetery is a yin house, and often the most important thing is the yin and yang gossip and geomantic omen. In the gossip, 'dryness is the sky, kun is the earth, earthquake is thunder, sunda is wind, gen is mountain, dui is marsh, ridge is water, and separation is fire'. The Xun hexagram is at this position in the southeast corner. Generally speaking, the door of the tomb, or the main vent, will be in the southeast corner. Not long, the yin energy is too heavy, turning the corpses of the dead in this tomb into corpses."

"Of course, this Xun Gua damper is also used to ventilate the yin house, so the southeast corner has the strongest air circulation. If the southeast corner can't even light candles, it means the air is thin and not suitable for living people to stay..."

The old-fashioned words haven't finished yet, poof——

The torch that Jin An had just planted in the southeast corner suddenly went out, and the position in the southeast corner suddenly went dark. The No. 13 old Taoist priest whose zodiac sign is the crow's mouth has come true again!

The old Taoist was suddenly shocked.

"No, the air in this tomb is thin, it is not suitable for living people to stay! Little brother, get out!"

But neither Jin'an nor the captain was moved. The captain walked to Jin'an, and the two looked up at the top of the tomb, where there was a dark hole.

The hole could probably fit two people through.

Just now, there was an outside air blowing in here, which blew out the torch in Jin An's hand.

Unexpectedly, a robbery hole was found in the tomb. This was really beyond everyone's expectations, and everyone present surrounded them in surprise.

"This robbery hole is really perfect. It is impartial. It just hits the position of Fengmen Xun Gua. The skill of this tomb robber can be called a master."

Kuixing, the big guy with hanging eyebrows who kicked and fought, had the most dealings with corpses and monsters. Perhaps he also dealt with tomb robbers on weekdays.

"Could it be that this robbery hole was built by other people who entered the ancient tomb before us?"

"No wonder, let me just say, the gate of the tomb has not been damaged, how did those people enter the ancient tomb. It turns out that a powerful tomb robber sneaked in among us, and he directly broke into the ancient tomb without going through the hanging coffin. The canyon and the gate of the tomb that is both a weapon and a mechanism."

The more Kuixing kicked and talked, the more surprised he became.

But the captain saw that the hole above his head was unusual.

"The traces near the robbery hole are not new, but rather made a long time ago. It seems that a group of people have entered this ancient tomb before us."

"It is estimated that other people just discovered the robbery hole left by the predecessors, so they followed this robbery hole and went down to the ancient tomb."

The captain frowned deeply.

Jin'an and the abbot of Bailong Temple looked at each other, their eyes showed surprise. Could it be that the tomb robbers from Yinshan Taoist who collectively folded in the tomb and raised water monkeys made it?
