Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 350 How to blackmail me? (4200)

This is the story of "River God" and "Water Ghost".

It turns out that the "Water Ghost" is indeed as Wu Liang guessed before, it is not a so-called evil thing at all, it is just a poor woman who was sacrificed to the "River God" by the villagers in the ceremony of "River God's Marriage" .

As for the decision of "Water Ghost" that he would rather stay in the underground palace with the "River God" who is not even a human being, and never return to the outside world.

While Wu Liang expressed his understanding, he felt a little disappointed.

He can fully imagine what the "water ghost" has experienced.

Cutting off tongues, sacrificing rivers...

This is what those villagers did to her. In this era when human life is like grass, as a weak woman, if she does not have a strong enough family background and backing, she is absolutely incapable of resisting these atrocities.

Just like the children in Yin Jian's family before.

Yin Jian is one of Boss Cao's soldiers at any rate, and even so, he has no ability to prevent his child from being caught and "staked for life", and even his own life is at stake.

Fortunately, when encountering such a thing, Yin Jian met Wu Liang.

But the "water ghost" can only be forced to bear all this.

After encountering these inhuman atrocities, for the "water ghost", choosing to stay in this underground palace with the "river god" is undoubtedly the best destination.

"..."

After listening to the words of "River God", everyone also fell silent.

As natives of this era, they must have heard a lot of similar things, and some of them may have even seen it with their own eyes.

Because of this, it is easier for them to understand why the "water ghost" made such a choice, and why he could write such words to the "river god".

Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs.

Faced with such things, most of them are also unable to resist, let alone help those poor people, and sometimes even have to be forced to become one of those villagers, pretending to be indifferent, pretending to join the carnival, so To prevent these atrocities from befalling themselves.

At this moment, everyone's chest is more or less oppressed.

"Although it's dark here, it's much brighter than outside..."

Although the words of "Water Ghost" are easy to understand and far from the literary talents of those literati, they are much more profound than idle moaning, and hit everyone's heart directly.

In such an era, they and their families are also unable to be alone, they can only look at their shadows and feel sorry for themselves...

"I see."

In the silence, Wu Liang suddenly and inappropriately pointed at those "soulless people" who were blocked by the "River God", and asked a question that might make them unable to step down, "It can be seen that Mr. Gongshu It is also a little compassionate, so I am a little curious, what happened to those 'extinct piles' laid by Mr. Gongshu?"

"As I have said before, this is an unprecedented great attempt!"

Facing this question, "River God" showed no guilt on his face, but said very seriously, "For this attempt, I am willing to pay any price. These 'extinct piles' are all voluntarily donated by my disciples. , no one was coerced, even myself, jumped off the city wall without hesitation, and was willing to be the pioneer of this great attempt... As you can see, my attempt was successful, so whether it is me or These 'extinct piles' are all worthy of death!"

"That's just the wishes of you and your disciples. Have you ever asked about the wishes of these 'extinct families'?"

Wu Liang looked directly at the "River God" and asked, "I saw some handwriting in a vertical burial coffin before, and the contents of these handwriting must have been read by Mr. Gongshu, right?"

"..."

"River God" was speechless at once, and after a while, he became annoyed, squinted his eyes and scolded loudly, "What do you know, there is a price to be paid for any attempt, which is to create a perfect carpentry, It also takes a lot of wood to try to complete, so I will never regret the decision I made back then, don't talk too much!"

This is outraged.

Wu Liang could imagine the state of mind of the "River God" at the moment. If it wasn't for the slight apology in his heart, the "River God" would behave more confidently than he is now. At least there is no need to be so excited suddenly, as if It's like being exposed by him.

"maybe."

Wu Liang smiled noncommittally. There are some things that need to be mentioned. There is no need to continue digging to stimulate them in this situation. Instead, he asked a question that he was more interested in, "Mr. Gongshu, I have one more thing I don’t know, there are rumors that you put a curse on the "Gongshujing", and anyone who practices the "Gongshujing" must bear the curse, is this true or not?"

"You do not believe?"

"River God" asked instead.

"I personally tend to think that this is the confusion you have thrown in order to continue the inheritance of the master craftsman. You first publicly published the remarks that cast a curse on the "Gong Shu Jing", and then ordered some disciples to donate their children to lay down the 'extinct pile', so that the 'curse' ’ As soon as the words are true, some people with ulterior motives will not dare to practice the "Gongshujing", let alone use the "Gongshujing" to harm others."

Wu Liang expressed his guess very bluntly.

"Do you think that setting up a simple obstacle can prevent those with ulterior motives from using the "Gongshu Jing" to seek fame and fortune?"

"River God" suddenly laughed, and asked Wu Liang a question about human nature.

"..."

Wu Liang was speechless for a moment.

He couldn't help thinking of a passage in the later "Das Kapital":

"If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere;
With a 20% profit, it comes alive;

With 50% profit, it takes risks;
With 100% profit, it dares to trample on all human laws;
With 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime, even the risk of hanging. "

The "it" here can be used to refer to the "Gong Shu Jing" and those people with ulterior motives.

Undoubtedly, if the "Gongshu Jing" is used to blackmail and coerce others, the profits that can be created will definitely exceed 300%, which is enough to make some people ignore the impact of the "curse" for immediate benefits.

and so.

If the curse in the "Public Shujing" is just a delusion.

I am afraid that the "Gong Shu Jing" will not be lost at all, and after hundreds of years, it has probably been discovered by people long ago, and it has once again become the "martial arts secret book" sought after by all craftsmen.

That is to say.

The curse in the "Gongshujing" is very likely to be real, and some inferences made by Wu Liang based on the "extinct piles" may be the ones who really fell into the "maze".

"So, does the curse of the Gongshu Jing exist?"

Wu Liang had understood the meaning of "River God"'s words, but he still wanted to get a definite answer from him.

"Hehe, this doesn't seem like a question that would be asked by someone who can enter the Gongshu Tomb, deduce the weakness of the 'Wood Magpie', and break my 'Secret Seal'."

"River God" still grinned and said ambiguously.

"Mr. Gongshu taught me that I was too persistent."

Wu Liang finally comprehended and looked at him with a smile, gave him a salute and stopped asking.

However, the conversation between the two made everyone on the "Linchong Lu Bus" confused.

"Old man, so talented brother played charades with Gongshu Pan for a long time. Is there a curse or not?"

Zhuge Liang approached Yu Ji curiously, and asked in a low voice.

"Although Gongshuban didn't say it explicitly, from my understanding, there should be one."

Yu Ji stroked his beard and said with a frown.

"If it's true, he'll just say it, so why bother playing tricks with your talented brother? Isn't this just taking off your pants and farting?"

Zhuge Liang asked again.

"This...you have to ask Gongshuban, how can I know what he thinks, maybe he just likes to take off his pants and fart?"

Yu Ji thoughtfully taught Zhuge Liang, "However, if I change my husband, I won't say it clearly. Not only will I not lose my momentum, but I will also appear to be inscrutable. If you learn more, you will definitely be able to use it in the future. "

"Oh, thank you sir for your pointers..."

Zhuge Liang nodded thoughtfully, obviously listening to Yuji's words in his heart.

"You old boy, you have to teach something good. How can I teach you those quack tricks? It's really old and unscrupulous."

Hearing the conversation between Zhuge Liang and Yu Ji, Yang Wanli regained his energy immediately, and attacked habitually.

"What do you know, old man? This is the old man's way of life. If someone else would kneel down and beg the old man, the old man might not be willing to teach it."

Yu Ji retorted, "Besides, for an ignorant idiot like you, I'm afraid you may not even understand the deep meaning in what the young master and Gongshupan said?"

"Who says I don't understand, I already understood!"

Yang Wanli puffed up his chest, and said seriously, "From my point of view, since neither Gongshuban nor Young Master has made it clear, then this curse must be nonsense, and there must be some other secret that is inconvenient to disclose to the public."

at this time.

"I see……"

Sun Ye, the descendant of the half-baked "Gongshu Jing", suddenly seemed to understand something, and muttered to himself with a look of sudden enlightenment.

Then, for some reason, he forced himself to climb up and down from the "Linchong Lu Bus", staggered to the front of the "River God", knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said as if repenting: "The queen of the villain, Sun Ye , Thank you Patriarch for your pointers!"

"This……"

Everyone was taken aback when they saw this, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

When did the "River God" teach him, and what did he realize from those ambiguous words? Why did he suddenly kneel down and thank the "River God".

So, should we guard against him now?

Lest he and the "River God" join forces and do things that are not good for you and us?

Think about these.

Dian Wei, who had already jumped off the "Linchong Lü Bus" and was standing beside Wu Liang to sweep the formation, subconsciously stood between Wu Liang and Sun Ye.

……

In the end, Wu Liang reached a consensus with the "River God".

Wu Liang and others will be escorted by the "River God" all the way out of the underground palace. When they reach the first passage hidden behind the hanging coffin, the "River God" cannot enter the passage due to the limited receptor type, so Wu Liang will send the "Water Ghost" "Return to him.

"River God" understood Wu Liang's concerns, so he didn't raise any objections.

And in the process.

Wu Liang did not propose to take the "water ghosts" out to help them return to human society. He sympathized with the "water ghosts" and was fully capable of providing a stable life for the "water ghosts".

The reason why he didn't mention it was not because he was afraid that the "river god" would turn his back because of his reluctance, but to put himself in the shoes of the "water ghost".

Years of dark life have caused her physical and psychological changes to be enormous.

It is difficult for her to adapt to the outside life anymore, and even the most common sunlight for normal people may become a sharp knife to kill her, not to mention her current appearance that is different from ordinary people. As a result, psychological problems caused by other factors that even Wu Liang cannot control.

There are many similar examples in later generations. Those who have been separated from human society for many years have not ended well.

at the same time.

"River God" did not mention the "Pixiu Treasure Box".

It has already seen the "Pixiu Treasure Box" held in Bai Jingjing's hands. This thing is not too big, but it is definitely not small, and it is impossible to hide it.

And that was originally the funeral object of the "River God", and it was the only funeral object in the coffin. It was obviously the most valued thing during its lifetime, and it was impossible not to recognize it.

But it just glanced over it, and didn't specifically mention this matter, nor did it ask Wu Liang and others to keep the "Pixiu Treasure Box".

In this regard, everyone felt a little strange.

However, they did not take the initiative to ask the "River God" about this matter. This was the only thing they could take away from the Gongshu Tomb. After so much effort, they naturally did not want to give up easily. What if the "River God" didn't notice this thing at first, but when they asked it, the "River God" noticed it and forcibly asked for it back?
So everyone looked at their noses, their noses, their noses and their hearts, and kept silent in a tacit understanding.

And during this period.

Sun Ye didn't do anything unusual either, and the process of evacuation seemed unusually harmonious.

After such an hour.

The group of people has returned to the front of the narrow passage that entered the underground palace.

Wu Liang ordered everyone to enter the tunnel first, while he held the "water ghost" hostage and stayed at the end.

After the last person entered the passage, Wu Liang first threw the bronze gate key brought by Sun Ye in front of the "River God".

"Duang!"

"River God" raised one front foot and stepped on it hard, and the disc-shaped key turned into a discus, "I have kept my promise, and it's time for you to do the same."

"I have one last question."

Wu Liang still did not let go of the "Water Ghost", but asked slyly, "Then how do I open the 'Pixiu Treasure Box'? As long as you tell me, I will return her immediately."

"'Pixiu Treasure Box' only has one chance to open it. If you make a mistake, the contents inside will be destroyed immediately. I just told you, do you dare to try it?"

"River God" was not angry, but asked back with a smile on his face.

"..."

Wu Liang was speechless.

He really didn't dare to trust the "River God" lightly, let alone try it lightly, because the "River God" had enough motivation to destroy the things inside.

"However, I can tell you that what is stored in the treasure box is the "Gong Shu Jing" created by me. It not only records the skills I taught to many disciples back then, but also many skills that I have never shown to others. If you If you really have the ability to unravel it, it means that the "Gongshu Jing" should not be lost, and this is the will of God that I cannot defy."

"River God" seemed to have seen through Wu Liang, and said with a smile, "Go, although you are not a benevolent woman, you have already arrived here, and all of your people have survived, so you can't do it." If you attack her again, how can you blackmail me?"

　Thank you [Sonoda Shutdown] boss for your support.
