Global Unlimited: My liver skills rely on simplification

Chapter 99 Hearing about the high priest again

Entering Shandong, there is a large stone chamber, about the size of two stadiums, extending diagonally into the mountain. The cave they came down from is only in the southwest corner of the edge.

In the center of the roof is rough, cold mountain stone. Three copper coffins are placed horizontally in the stone chamber, exuding the unique cyan luster of bronze.

The scale is larger than the one outside, and the shape and inscriptions are much more refined.

Yan Yunyan held the electric light and said in surprise: "Three points are facing each other, forming a "pin" shape. This placement is a bit special."

Chen Mu took a step forward, nodded and said, "This is the Three Talents Entrance Examination Form."

The three talents refer to heaven, earth, and people.

There is the way of heaven, there is the way of human beings, and there is the way of earth.It combines three and two, so it is six.The six are not other things, they are the way of the three talents.

In Feng Shui physiognomy, the three talents are also called heavenly stems, earthly branches, and human beings.

The Heavenly Stems represent the Way of Heavenly Secrets, the Earthly Branches represent the Way of Earthly Meridians, and the Hidden Qian represents the Way of Human Beings.

It is formed by the combination of yang and yin intersections, and the three intersections form a hexagram.

"The three talents in Feng Shui recorded in the Burial Sutra?"

Fatty Wang frowned and thought, and suddenly said in shock: "So, there is a hidden tomb here?"

Thinking of this, he was pleasantly surprised again. He had gone through life and death all the way, and he hadn't caught a single hair yet. Not to mention how uncomfortable he felt.

"That's right!"

Chen Mu nodded and looked around the stone chamber. There must be a big tomb in the land of three talents.Moreover, it’s not just any big tomb!

These three bronze coffins, with the power of three talents, work together to protect the other tomb.

"You open these three copper coffins first."

Chen Mu said, turned around and walked along the tomb wall.

Putting his hand against the cold stone wall, he began to measure it carefully. On the other side, Zhang Qiling stretched out his long and narrow fingers and began to feel it silently. The others began to work together to open the coffin.

The fat man held the thick crowbar with both hands and shouted in a deep voice.

"rise!"

Peiran's huge force surged downwards, and the copper coffin opened a gap as thick as an arm, and several steel bars were inserted diagonally in an instant.

Zhang Qiling let out a low drink and pressed down again.

The two of them worked together to lift off the coffin board.

Wu Xie was curious and took a step forward.

When he looked through his head, he immediately screamed: "Hold the grass——"

Everyone's expressions condensed slightly, and they dispersed instantly, away from the bronze coffin.

"What are you doing?"

Wu Xie was so shocked that he stood alone at the edge of the copper coffin, scratching his head and wondering: "There is only one skeleton in it, there is nothing else."

Yan Yunyan waited for a moment to make sure nothing happened. She also stepped forward and took a look inside.

A huge skeleton appeared in sight. All the flesh and blood had melted away, leaving behind pale bones that glowed eerily white under the electric light.

"Chen Mu, come and take a look, this skeleton is a bit strange!" Yan Yunyan shouted.

Without her needing to shout, Chen Mu had already come closer. What he saw was a three-meter-high white skeleton lying quietly inside the copper coffin.

The head is covered with a bronze snake mask, the snake's eyes are tightly closed, and the expression is cold and vicious. Even after countless years, it is still extremely cold and makes people's hearts tremble.

"I seem to have added this somewhere before." Chen Mu thought for a moment and said.

"Ghost cave!" Yan Yunyan said with a solemn expression.

Chen Mu thought for a moment, thinking about it, the high priest had used this kind of writing that looked like oracle bone inscriptions!
After glancing around, Chen Mu's eyes fell on the inner wall around the copper coffin, which was filled with strange cultural symbols and neatly arranged.

The words of the ancient oracle bone civilization!
"Does anyone know?"

He turned around and asked casually, without any expectations. After all, this thing had a similar existence in the world of ghost blowing lanterns, and this was a tomb robbing note, so it was a bit different.

Everyone looked at it and couldn't help but shake their heads.

But unexpectedly, Wu Xie stood up and said in an uncertain tone: "I seem to know him a little bit..."

"you recognize?"

Fatty Wang was shocked and looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Others also looked over in unison. Facing everyone's gaze, Wu Xie scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "You also know that I can't help much, so I thought of starting from other places to study. A lot of ancient writings.”

"I have seen this kind of writing on a batch of ancient coins, and I studied it for a long time."

"That batch of ancient coins is called the Ancient Coins of the Western Regions in that circle!"

"The gold coins dug up from the depths of Taklimakan?"

Chen Mu turned to look at him and said softly: "Is it a relic from the ancient Shang and Zhou Dynasties?"

"Mr. Chen, how do you know?"

Wu Xie almost blurted it out, but soon he started laughing at himself again.

"As expected of Mr. Chen, I studied for a long time before I figured out the origin of those ancient coins. I didn't expect..."

"Continue the topic you just talked about." Chen Mu interrupted him.

"it is good!"

Wu Xie nodded and said, "The writing inside this copper coffin is suspected to be the writing used in the legendary Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but it looks even more ancient and complicated, and I can't distinguish some of the writing.

"What did it say?" Yan Yunyan looked at him.

Wu Xie leaned over, watched carefully, and said slowly: "It is recorded here that the owner of the bronze coffin is a priest of the ancient oracle bone civilization."

"He is an assistant sacrifice in a civilization's ceremony. He has irreplaceable importance and sacredness. He has an extremely noble status in this civilization and is specifically responsible for the ethnic group's sacrifice ceremony!"

"Other information is somewhat incomplete, and I can't recognize some of it," Wu Xie said.

"—a priest?"

Chen Mu looked at the bones in the coffin and waved his hand: "Zhang Qiling, let's open these two sarcophagi again!"

"it is good."

Zhang Qiling nodded, cherishing words like gold.

Chen Mu walked to the bronze coffin on the left, pulled out the Tang knife, inserted it straight into the gap and slid it to both sides, cut off the fastening mechanism, and opened the coffin lid.

Another identical pale skeleton appeared, wearing a bronze snake mask, and another copper coffin was also opened by Zhang Qiling two or three times.

"Come and have a look."

He waved to Wu Xie and began to wait quietly. Wu Xie looked anxious and walked back and forth between the three copper coffins, his brows furrowed.

After combining, comparing, and translating the fragmentary information, Yu carefully considered his sentence and said slowly: "These three white bones are all priests of the oracle bone civilization and assistant sacrifices in the festival. They dedicated their lives to the ethnic group during their lifetime and left them behind after death. Here, the high priest guarding civilization!,
"High Priest?"

Another term came up, making everyone stunned and looked at each other.

"The high priest is the actual ruler of the civilization and presides over the sacrificial ceremony. It is recorded that the whole clan of this civilization is enshrining an ancient creature, but it does not explain the origin and identity of this creature. I don't know what it is. .”

Wu Xie finished speaking and looked over directly.

These words also gave everyone a little understanding of this lost oracle bone civilization.

A civilization where theocracy is supreme!

"So, these three priests' coffins are guarding the high priest's tomb with the power of three talents..."

Yan Yunyan was thinking deeply, her eyes looking thoughtful.

"High Priest, you will be very aggressive when you hear this name. There must be a lot of good things!"

Fatty Wang immediately became excited and looked around.

"Let's all look for it on our own!" Chen Mu waved his hand and said.The team began to disperse, groping layer by layer, leaving no stone unturned. Half an hour later, everyone looked at each other in confusion, with no results.

"I've searched everything. Except for the passage leading to the Bronze Divine Tree that Lao Itch mentioned, there are no other hidden tombs here. The surroundings and the ground are all naturally formed rocks."

Yan Yunyan came over and explained the situation.

"The land of three talents must have a big tomb!"

Chen Mu looked calm and raised his gaze, "If it's not on the ground, then it's in the sky!"

"In heaven?"

Yan Yunyan was startled and quickly raised her head.

What you see before your eyes is a coarse powdery cold rock, intertwined with natural patterns, and full of traces of cutting and chiseling. This is a piece of white granite, completely natural, without any abnormalities.

This rock was squeezed as hard as iron during the geological movement!

Yan Yunyan frowned and couldn't help but analyze: "With this oracle bone civilization and its extensive methods, if it was dug out, there would be no traces left."

"it's here!"

Chen Mu smiled and walked to the middle of the three copper coffins.

The electric light in his hand shined upward, reflecting a white and dim light.

If you look closely, you will find that there are small lines emerging on the surface of the granite, outlining a neat outline. These are clearly rectangular stone bricks, three meters long and one and a half meters wide.

"Really."

Fatty Wang raised his head and opened his mouth.

He cursed and said: "What kind of high priest is this? The tomb is actually located above. How should we go up there?"

"Blow it up with dynamite."

"If you want to die, don't drag us together..."

Wu Xie looked at him speechlessly and said angrily: "Once this tomb collapses and hundreds of millions of tons of rocks fall, no one can escape!"

"Then how do you go up?" Fatty Wang twisted his sore neck.

"how could I know."

Wu Xie was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore and turned to look over: "Let's see what Mr. Chen says?"

Chen Mu pondered for a moment and said, "Go up to the robber hole!"

With a wave of his hand, a herringbone ladder appeared.

"Do you have everything?"

The fat man became interested and was very curious: "Is there anything to eat? Give me some instant noodles."

Maybe they are familiar, but Fatty actually dared to joke with Chen Mu.

"I don't eat instant noodles very much."

Chen Mu set up the herringbone ladder directly below this position.

Turning to look at Zhang Qiling, he spoke again: "Brother, come up with me and play horizontally, three vertically, and four!"

This technique is to take three stone bricks horizontally and then four vertically, keeping the stone bricks staggered and stabilizing the stress points. It is the safest way to open the top of the tomb from bottom to top.

Moreover, the rocks above his head weighed several thousand kilograms, and few people in the team could carry them well. The situation above was unknown, so he had to take action himself.

The two stood opposite each other. Chen Mu drew his sword and pierced it into the crack of the rock, cutting a deep sword mark along the sealing lines.

On the other side, Zhang Qiling was holding a black gold ancient sword, and he also adopted the same method and was a little more busy.

A piece of granite that was three meters long, [-] meters wide and one meter high was unloaded by two people and thrown directly downward.

Yan Yunyan and Fatty stepped forward, worked together to catch the huge boulder, and began to draw pictures of the pot and ladle.

Pieces of stone strips were unloaded, and the cave was rapidly formed. When it extended upward for five meters, one piece of stone strip was moved away.

A dark space appeared in the eyes, filled with ancient atmosphere.

Arrived!

Everyone suddenly became energetic and waited quietly for half an hour until the ventilation in the tomb was completed.

"Be alert and come up with me!"

After Chen Mu finished speaking, he crawled up the thief's cave and stepped on the cold ground.

When the electric light shines in his hand, bronze beams and laurels stand upright, supporting the above-ground tomb.

The surrounding tomb walls, including the dome, are covered with murals and mysterious ancient inscriptions. A giant bronze coffin is placed in the middle of the tomb chamber, exuding a desolate, ancient atmosphere.

The feeling of weight and majesty fills the heart, making people unable to help but worship.

The ancient oracle bone civilization - the tomb of a great priest, buried the supreme leader of the civilization!

"This coffin makes me feel like I'm standing at the foot of a mountain, looking up at Mount Tai."

Fatty Wang just climbed up and looked at the coffin, and his legs began to feel weak.

Zhang Qiling leaned over, grabbed Wu Xie's collar, and lifted him out of the robbery hole.

"Can you please be gentler? It's like you are pinching my penis all day long. I feel so shameless..."

Wu Xie coughed repeatedly and his face turned red from suppressing it. Zhang Qiling let go of him and walked aside without saying a word.

"You first go and look at the Zhou Dynasty murals Jiaoyu and see what information there is."

Chen Mu turned to look at him, stretched out his hands, and took Yan Yunyan out of the robbery cave.

"it is good."

Wu Xie nodded, chose a seat, and began to think about it. Chen Mu ignored him and his eyes fell on the giant bronze coffin.

Walking closer, he gently placed his palms on the edge of the coffin. The lingering sadness spread from his palms, making his nose feel sore and his heart aroused a feeling of sadness and despair.

asked in a daze.

Someone was mourning and shouting something miserably in his ears. Chen Mu's eyes flashed with fire to dispel this strange emotion.

It is really not easy to shake the spiritual power of the monks in the foundation building stage.

Looking up, Zhang Qiling also looked solemn, as if facing a formidable enemy. The two looked at each other and slowly exerted their strength.

The high priest's coffin did not have any anti-theft measures. He simply picked it up and closed it, and the two men pushed it away easily.

Yan Yunyan was flashing lightning at the side, her eyes were shining, ready to support at any time.

The coffin lid revealed a gap, and a touch of jade luster emerged from the copper coffin. A five-meter-high crystal white bone lay quietly in the coffin.

The whole body is like jade, translucent, reflecting the hazy luster of jade. The bone marrow inside is withered, faintly revealing the unique luster of bronze.

A bronze snake mask covers the white skull, with the eyes closed, but there is a purple vertical pupil carved on the forehead, like a snake's eye, cold and weird.

Just one look at it made my heart throb, producing strong feelings of fear and admiration.

The mourning in Mingpin's ears became more and more intense, as if countless people were weeping, praying, and muttering an unknown ancient language.

"Good boy, the bones of this high priest are almost becoming sperm."

Fatty Wang rubbed his hands, his eyes glowing green, "This crystal skeleton is more precious and dazzling than diamonds and jewelry. It will definitely sell for a sky-high price!"

"If you dare to move, I'll cut off your hand!" Yan Yunyan scolded softly. She felt a familiar power from this crystal skull.

Chen Mu and Yan Yunyan looked at each other. They were so similar. The shape of the masks resembled the eyes of Jingjue Guidong.

Chen Mu looked at it carefully and put his hand on the crystal bones. The cold touch, with a deep sadness, was as thick and rich as the top of Mount Tai.

He took a deep breath and took off the bronze snake face from the white bones.
