The longevity of the heavens begins with Mingyu Gong

Chapter 486 Wuling King, Longchuan King

The five ghosts followed the passage for half a day without noticing any danger.

Until he walked somewhere and felt something in front of him, Song Xing's heart moved, and the magic power of travel was activated, and the dark cave was suddenly filled with electricity, and a white ball of light appeared in the cave out of thin air, illuminating the entire space.

I saw a big blue stone like a huge monument lying down and sleeping tens of meters in front. On the stone was a tall and strong jade man, the color of jade was as red as blood, he was wearing a python robe with a hook belt, and his head was as big as a bucket. He was seated on a white flowered platform in the center, but he was too far away to see his face clearly, and he saw dozens of male and female stone figures kneeling as slaves all around him, all holding lamps, candles and wine vessels.

Fatty Wang climbed up the stone platform and took a closer look. On the head of the jade man in the middle, there was a copper mask like a copper kettle, but there was no outline of facial features, and there was not even a hole for seeing things. He tapped on the copper mask with his finger , rustling, serious bronze antiques.

He practiced martial arts quite effectively, and his arms also have a thousand catties of strength. Under brute force, he lifted the jade man abruptly.

He looked up, but was startled. It turned out that the bronze mask on the back of the jade man's head did have facial features, with eyebrows, mouth and nose, and a scrutinized expression, but it was not a human face, but a "black sheep" face. .

The jade statue wearing a black sheep bronze face sits halfway on a white table, holding a three-foot-long jade sword in its hand. Although the sheath is missing, it still looks crystal clear and emits a faint precious light.

Hundreds of tadpole-like runes were engraved on the jade sword, and there was a faint ray of light flowing, and the blade of the sword flickered with cold light, extremely sharp.

"Wuyang King Sword, this is indeed the tomb of Wuyang King!"

When Professor Sun saw the sword, he immediately shouted excitedly.

Then they discovered to their horror that the entire white platform under the bronze-faced jade man was actually the backs of six corpses.

The six female corpses knelt on the ground in two rows, some lowered their heads, and some turned their faces sideways, with various expressions of horror, but all of them exposed their backs above. A platform as soft as leather, and a jade man with a black sheep and copper face on his head is sitting on a soft mat made of dead corpses.

Fatty Wang couldn't help shivering, and asked tremblingly, "These...could they be the villagers of Dixian Village? How did they become like this?"

"The villagers of Dixian Village?" Song Xing sneered and shook his head.

Professor Sun sighed: "This is the human stool recorded in the history books. The red sand poured into the female corpse may be the medicine used to maintain the flesh and blood after death."

He looked at the female corpse in front of him, and felt a little sad. The slaves in the slave era, even their life and death were in the hands of the superiors, how sad.

The five criminal laws of Mo, Jie, Bin, Gong, and Dapi, as representative criminal laws of the slave era, began in Xia and developed in Shang and Zhou.

But only Professor Sun, who is familiar with history books, knows that there are more than five kinds of torture invented by those tyrannical kings throughout the ages, and the cruelty is even more cruel.

The so-called "five punishments", "twelve cruelties", "seven killings" and so on, each of which is extremely deterrent and powerful, is the earliest product of human civilization history.

Looking at the human bench under the jade man, Song Xing said: "It seems that these corpse benches are burial objects for the Wuyang King. Feng Shigu put the jade man here, it seems that the dove occupied the magpie's nest, and the Is the tomb of the Wuyang King changed to Dixian Village?"

If you want to visit the immortals, you should first find Wuyang, which is exactly the same.

Professor Sun carefully inspected the passage and the stone beams. After inspecting the ancient relics of insects and fish on the stone beams, and many ancient symbols resembling the sun, moon and stars, he finally came to the conclusion that this place was the civilization of the kingdom of witches and evil spirits back then. .

The country of witches and evils is an ancient civilization in the Bashu area. At that time, there was no title of king in the local area. Because the local people respected the culture of witches and evils, the highest military and political ruler was actually a "big witch". The true identity of the so-called "Wuyang King" In fact, it was a local great witch, and the enlightened monarch of the ancient Shu Kingdom was a descendant of Wuyang King.

As soon as ancient civilization was mentioned, Professor Sun immediately eloquently stared at the surrounding stone tablets with bright eyes.

Although he is a descendant of the Feng family, he is also a scholar who focuses on historical research. Wushu civilization has relatively few records since ancient times. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to study it carefully.

This cave was originally a place for offering sacrifices to the Witch King of Yishan Mountain. This is not an ancient tomb underworld. The tomb of the Witch King should be hidden in the deepest part of the "Coffin Gorge".

Seeing Professor Sun lying on the stone tablet to record the culture of Wu Kingdom, Song Xing and the others did not urge them. They had found the right place anyway, so they were not in a hurry. Seeing the exhaustion on the faces of Hu Bayi and others, they simply Find a dry place and start a fire.

Before the campfire, Professor Sun sorted out the materials collected today, and intermittently told the legends recorded on the inscription.

The stone pillars under the Wuyang King's bench are left over from the water control in those years. The engraved seals are extremely fine, the patterns are "light and heavy thunder patterns", and the seals are "snail cicada ancient seals". The strange-shaped snail script, but Professor Sun has been immersed in this way for decades, pouring endless efforts, and has extraordinary attainments. It is beyond the reach of ordinary scholars and experts, and it is easy to understand [-]% to [-]%.

He said that the stele records that in the early years, due to the unique terrain of the Wushan Mountains, it was not benefited from the diversion of water by Yin and Yang fish. The mountainous area was flooded and natural disasters continued year after year. Every year, countless people and animals were engulfed by the floods and became fish in the river. food.

Later, the hermit King Wuling appeared, who had the art of moving mountains, and could drive Yin soldiers to dredge the river, which had miraculous effects.

But one day when King Wuling was controlling the water, it was discovered that his identity was transformed from a black sheep in the mountains. He opened the river with the power of ghosts and gods, and drove countless mountain ghosts and mandrills to move earth and rocks.

The criss-crossing canyons of the coffin gorge and the dangerous bird paths all over the walls are the relics of the Wuling king who used Yin soldiers to open the river. Gradually lowered, buried layer by layer on the cliff.

Later, King Wuling succeeded in water control. On the day of the celebration, he got drunk and went to Xiling Mountain by mistake. It has been cooked for a long time.

Then the local plague first broke out, and then the locusts covered the sun and overturned the sky. The people said that this was the lingering ghost of King Wuling, so a large tomb was built in the gorge to gather his remaining corpses for burial, but only his flesh and blood remained. The skeleton, the head was probably eaten by someone, and it was never found again. The hall of worship was built to offer sacrifices every year, and the jade body and copper head were made to worship.

Professor Sun mentioned the inscription on the Zhongding Tablet, the legend of the Wuyang King showing his original form and founding a mountain, many of which have the color of creating gods, the secrets of witchcraft culture are ancient, and many things have been lost in the long river of history. It is now impossible to verify.

But Song Xing's eyes showed suspicion: "I look at the history books, the floods in Shu should be ruled by Dayu of the Xia Dynasty, and the Wuyang King's control of the floods, I am afraid it is an excuse to put gold on his face?"

Professor Sun nodded: "That's right. It is mentioned in historical materials that there was a King Longchuan in Shu. It is said that King Longchuan was cruel and extravagant by nature, but he dredged the river and cured the flood. People, when they died, they were dismembered by knives, maybe it's also possible that the Wuyang King is covering up his identity."
