Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 330 Underworld (4000)

How many coffins are there...

Before Wu Liang could count them in detail, he felt that there was a large area in front of him. This scale really shocked him. Even the piece of tomb that he saw in the Qiai Cemetery before would have to bow down.

It's just that there is such a large vertical burial coffin, what is there to say, is it bad or good?

Just as Wu Liang was thinking, he heard Yu Ji stroking his beard and continuing to say, "And this burial method is completely wrong. There are many rules for the 'Dragonfly Pointing Water Cave' method of burial. The most important thing is that the coffin must be covered with loess. If other soil quality is used, it will become a ruined cave, unable to take advantage of the benefits of the 'dragonfly pointing water cave', and these coffins are all half exposed, which is obviously very unreasonable... wait a minute!"

Speaking of this, Yu Ji seemed to have discovered some important information again, so he bravely took a few steps forward and stretched his neck to look at the coffins more carefully.

Then he suddenly turned pale with shock, and hurriedly stepped back and said to Wu Liang with a terrified expression: "My lord, these coffins are all buried upside down, so this is absolutely impossible to be buried in the 'Dragonfly Pointing Water Cave'." Fa, the method of burial must be head up and feet down, so that the feet can absorb the feng shui treasure, and if the feet are up and down like this, the yin and yang will be reversed. Anyway, it is a terrible burial method. Not only is it extremely bad for future generations, Even the dead body is very easy to change, if it is not for the sworn enemy, it will never be buried like this!"

"Just now I saw that these coffins are still tied with iron chains. Those who want to bury these coffins must know the dangers of this method of burial, so they specially tied iron chains to prevent the corpses inside from changing. Get out!"

"..."

After listening to Yu Ji's words, everyone became nervous instantly.

Although Yu Ji is sometimes a little unreliable, he never cares about professional things, so everyone dare not doubt his judgment.

And what is certain is that now everyone is no longer affected by the "heart trick".

Therefore, whether it is what Yu Ji sees or the tension that everyone presents, they are the most reliable real feelings, and there is no need to doubt them.

"Old man, since these coffins are all tied with iron chains, even if the corpses inside have undergone a change, it shouldn't be possible to escape easily, right?"

Wu Liang pondered for a moment, then asked.

At least what we can see now is that these vertical burial coffins are still in a complete state, which means that nothing strange comes out of the coffin.

But he didn't dare to rule out other possibilities.

If these corpses had mutated into "J" in the tomb of King Liang Xiao, it would be absolutely impossible to trap him only with these wooden coffins and those iron chains, as long as he wanted to come out, he could come out at any time.

However, the corpse change in this situation is not enough to scare Wu Liang.

Although his "mysterious small drum" can't kill "J" directly, it can also scare him away, and it can still play some role at critical moments, so it can be regarded as confident.

"This... the old man can't tell. It depends on the extent of the mutation. It needs to know that there is not only one kind of change in the corpse change. Some changes are beyond common sense. Even an iron coffin may not be able to trap it."

Yu Ji shook his head, wrinkled his old face and said.

at this time.

As if to cooperate with Yu Ji.

"Dong dong!"

Suddenly, there were two extremely dull knocking sounds in the underground palace.

The sound was very similar to the sound of knuckles knocking on a wooden door, coupled with the dull sound effect, immediately made everyone aware of the source of the sound.

It is very likely... from the inside of a vertical burial coffin!
"what……"

Huang Yueying, the youngest, let out a cry of fright, and quickly hugged Zhuge Liang's arm tightly.

"Don't be afraid, if anything happens, the talented brother will definitely protect us, and I will definitely protect you too."

Although Zhuge Liang's face was a little pale, he still comforted Huang Yueying in a low voice, stopped her by the shoulder, and hugged her into his arms.

This kid...has the demeanor of mine back then!

Seeing this scene, Wu Liang appreciated it in his heart, but now was not the time to pay attention to these details.

Although he didn't really want to find out what happened to the corpses in these coffins, he had to figure out whether the things inside would threaten their safety.

"It should be over there, the second column, the third coffin!"

Bai Jingjing immediately pointed out the source of the voice for Wu Liang, and said seriously.

"Um……"

Wu Liang nodded, and just planned to ask Shang Dianwei to go up and check together to make sure that the coffin was not damaged, and the unknown things inside could not come out in a short time, so that he could check other things with peace of mind. .

However, he hadn't had time to speak yet.

The sound was like the first howl of wolves in a pack of wolves.

"Dong dong!"

"Dong dong!"

"Dong dong!"

……

More of the same voices sounded together.

One after another!

This time without Bai Jingjing making a judgment, everyone can hear that these voices come from the entire group of vertical burial coffins in front of them. Although I dare not say that there must be movement in every vertical burial coffin, at least most of them are ringing .

This feeling is like an untrained drum team playing in front of you, and the percussion sounds messy.

But that kind of drum performance sounds a little funny.

But the performance of the "drum troupe" in front of Wu Liang and others made one's scalp tingle!

And what's even more frightening.

These knocking sounds were obviously accelerating over time, faster and faster, more urgent, as if they were urging everyone to die.

Everyone can even imagine it.

Each of these vertical burial coffins contained a bloodthirsty and terrifying monster, and they became more and more manic and impatient.

They are like a group of diners waiting for their meal, constantly beating on the bowls, chopsticks and table to urge Xiao Er to serve the food quickly.

As long as they rush out of the coffin, or Wu Liang and others walk over, they will rush at everyone like locusts, tear them into pieces, and eat their blood and flesh...

"This……"

Even Dian Wei had already made a mistake, and looked at Wu Liang with a slight frown.

If so many things that may have already undergone corpse changes come out of the coffin, let alone protect everyone present, even protecting Wu Liang alone may be very difficult.

If Dian Wei is like this, the others are naturally not much better.

Yu Ji had already silently retreated behind Wu Liang, only a restless old face poked out from behind him.

On the other hand, Zhuge Liang hugged Huang Yueying even tighter, so that Huang Yueying's small face had already shown a little pained expression, it must have hurt her.

"..."

Naturally, Wu Liang also felt a chill, feeling uncomfortable all over.

So he didn't stop doing anything, and directly moved the "mysterious snare drum" to his chest, raised his hand to the drum and knocked three times in a row.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of drums merged into the sound of percussion.

next moment.

!!!

The chaotic and increasingly rapid knocking sound stopped abruptly.

The entire underground palace returned to silence.

But this absolute silence is equally unsettling, and it feels like a greater crisis is hidden in it, just like the darkness before dawn.

"It really works!"

Seeing this situation, Wu Liang had some judgment in his heart.

This is actually not a good sign, because it proves from a certain level that most of the things in these vertical burial coffins are evil things transformed from corpses.

Because his "mysterious snare drum" came into play several times, all when encountering evil things.

On the contrary, it has no effect in the face of other things.

and so……

Wu Liang also felt a little uneasy.

Leaving aside the countless gnats in Qi Ai Cemetery, this should be the time he has encountered the most evil things, and there is a high probability that they are all evil things directly mutated from human corpses. The "Uncanny Valley Theory" has already The conclusion is given that this kind of thing is often the scariest and scariest.

Besides.

Wu Liang was still thinking about another incomprehensible question.

Through Sun Ye's description and what he saw after entering the underground palace, it can be proved that this underground palace is definitely the legendary Gongshu Tomb.

The Gongshu Tomb is naturally Lu Ban's mausoleum.

There are various indications that Lu Ban must have spent a lot of thought when he built the Gongshu Tomb for himself, otherwise it would be impossible to display all his life's inventions and creations here in the form of an exhibition, especially those large-scale instruments. It's not easy to put it in here.

But that being the case, why are so many vertical burial coffins placed here in an upside-down manner?
From the iron chains installed on the outside of the vertical burial coffin, it can be seen that Lu Ban must also know that this method of burial is very dangerous, but it is unreasonable to arrange such a dangerous thing in his mausoleum.

Or rather.

These inverted vertical burial coffins actually have other functions that are more beneficial than harmful to Lu Ban?
If not, there is really no way to explain it...

Just when Wu Liang was thinking so.

"Cough cough..."

Sun Ye, who was lying on Yang Wanli's back, suddenly coughed twice, and said in an uncertain tone, "I don't know if this place is the 'Dragon Point Water Cave', but I suspect that these upside-down vertical burial coffins may be It is the 'extinct pile' deliberately arranged by the patriarch."

"Extinct pile?"

Hearing this, everyone looked back at Sun Ye in doubt.

This name does not sound like a good thing, but the specific meaning has to be explained by a successor of "Gongshu Jing" like Sun Ye.

"The so-called 'extreme household pile' is a form of 'survival pile'."

Sun Ye said in detail, "Actually, the patriarch also has a little research on Fengshui patterns. In the past, when craftsmen built bridges and houses, accidents often happened to hurt people. Therefore, in order to appease the wrath of the ghosts and gods, the patriarch proposed the ceremony of "pile driving", burying boys and girls alive on the construction site for sacrifice. , after doing things like this, the accidents of hurting people are much less, and later this ceremony has been handed down among the craftsmen."

"Actually, it is not necessary to use living people to 'drive pilings'. If it is a smaller project, such as just building a house, it will not cause much damage to the feng shui of the place. Live chickens and dogs are used to 'pile piles'." Stakes are also possible, like the house of the Huang family, my father just sacrificed two live chickens, but if we want to build bridges, palaces, dams, cities and other large buildings, we must use live people. "

"There are also a lot of things that need to be paid attention to when 'scorching piles', who to use, how to bury people, and where to bury them."

"Usually, virgins are chosen as sacrifices. Virgins are cute, cute, and pure. They are not only the favorite of people, but also the favorite offerings of ghosts and gods. Making such a sacrifice is the best way to express sincerity to ghosts and gods." .”

"There are many ways of burial. Some can use coffins for horizontal burial, some need to be tied to stone stakes and submerged in water for water burial, and some need to be buried vertically...In short, each has its own theory."

"There are also many particulars about where to be buried. When building bridges, some are buried at both ends of the bridge, while others are buried under the pier. When building mansions, some are buried under the main house, while others They will be buried at the place where Lu Chong is located, and others will be buried under the doorway stone... It also depends on local conditions."

"And the most powerful and mysterious among them is this kind of 'extinct pile'."

"Actually, I have never seen it before, but I just heard from my father that this kind of 'extinct pile' requires a total of seventy-seven 49 pairs of boys and girls, all buried alive in this extremely rare upside-down vertical burial method, and then matched Corresponding arrangements, and at the same time applying secret methods can form piles."

"And these virgin boys and girls who are buried will never be reborn forever, and their clansmen will also be affected. After three generations at most, they will be extinct. From now on, there will be no living people of this blood in the world. This is the theory of 'extinct family pile' origin."

"As for what this 'extreme household pile' is used for..."

"I'm not too clear about it. Even my father's information is very vague. He only said that this 'extinct household pile' seems to be related to a place called 'Yellow Spring', but what is this 'Yellow Spring'? He couldn't tell why."

Having said this, Sun Ye finally gasped for breath and stopped speaking.

In his current state, it is not a small burden to talk so much at once.

"It's his mother's 'Sheng Piling' again..."

Wu Liang didn't like this cruel word very much, and he didn't like the story behind it.

But he actually didn't doubt Sun Ye's remarks. According to folklore, the custom of "pigging piles" was created by Lu Ban alone, and it has been passed down to later generations, and it is even still used in some places.

Not long before Wu Liang crossed over, he saw a piece of news:
A vicious accident happened at a construction site. Four children who were playing nearby disappeared inexplicably.

Although the relevant persons in charge and construction personnel have all been brought to justice.

However, there are still many doubts in the process of the case. Some people suspect that this may be "pile driving".
