Chapter 144 Tidy up
144 Chapter 144 compilation

I have been able to complete the special training program arranged by my brother in a decent manner, and he is finally quite satisfied. As an encouragement, he no longer has to climb trees to catch snakes every day.

Today Yu Jing said that my little horns can make me invisible for a few days. I touched it unconsciously. In fact, the little horns are quite cute, but it is really inconvenient to go out. I feel a little reluctant to hide them temporarily. of.But it doesn't matter that my spiritual power is stable. I can summon it at any time if I want to use it as a decoration.

But they still didn’t tell me why they suddenly strengthened their guard and why they had this pair of horns.Moreover, that guy from Xue Feng also said that he would find a way to increase my spiritual energy, but it turned out that he didn’t appear at all recently, but he must have been looking for information from my little brother.

I feel that the appearance of the videotape must have some meaning. There is a paragraph in the Pico record. Wu Xie also received the videotape, and the sender also said Zhang Qiling. This is too deliberate. Someone is trying to lure us there. Which means, I think, something will be done soon.

Today's homework was finished very early. The day before, I said we would read the notes together, so after the practice, I sat directly on the sofa in the work area of ​​the room. I put all the things on the table and I was also on the sofa. sat down.

I first checked and sorted out the previous day's work, then handed it to him, and said to him: "I think this part is more or less the same. Anyway, the point is that the source is the Queen Mother of the West, and the content of the longevity method is explored. But, to be honest, this There are loopholes in the method of immortality. It’s basically a method of sending someone to death. How can it be immortality? It’s so strange that so many people want to get it. I can’t understand it.” The little brother sighed, and then looked at the information I had just compiled. .

While looking at the information, I said to him: "Brother, you heard this yesterday and you probably understand it, right? Then I will sort it out based on my perspective and pick up what I think are clues. Listen."

After the little brother said "yes", I was the only one mumbling for the rest of the time.

Let’s talk about the Warring States Silk Books first, which are the iron-faced miscellany of the Warring States Period.It needs to be decoded using an ancient code that converts images into text called "Warring States Book Pictures" that was cracked in 1974.

According to what the third uncle said, Jude Kao found inspiration from the "Embroidery Manual" and found a way for professionals to use words to record the embroidery procedures. In mathematics, this is a dot matrix diagram.The decoding method of "Warring States Books and Pictures" was found.

Then he used this code to unlock the secret of the silk book he had defrauded from Master Gou Wu. It was a strange picture, consisting of six curved lines and an irregular circle, with seven lines extending from each other. picture.

He then found out based on the pattern of this picture that the exact same pattern as this strange picture was carved on a bronze alchemy furnace in a Taoist temple in Qimeng Mountain, Shandong.Jude Kao wanted to find this incense burner, and the third uncle who helped him get the alchemy burner said it was to untie the chain, so they had already cooperated.

Tie Miansheng used the mechanism of the alchemy furnace to hide the star diagram he observed in a silk book, and the figure on the silk book was an "astrology chart".I don’t know exactly what the explanation was, but it must be related to the secret of the Queen Mother of the West.

This bronze alchemy furnace is very special. It is about one person tall and shaped like an upside-down lotus. In the center of the furnace is a fist-sized, very majestic bronze beast looking up to the sky.

There is a mechanism at the bottom of the furnace, which is a water filling port, used to add water to the alchemy furnace when refining alchemy.The furnace wall is hollow, and there is water inside. As long as you turn the lid of the alchemy furnace and turn the figure on it to a certain position, you can open the mechanism below the sky-watching beast, and the water in the furnace wall will flow from the mouth of the sky-watching beast. Squirt it out, so you don't need to open the furnace lid when making alchemy.

The origin of the alchemy furnace is that it collapsed from the mountain during an earthquake before liberation. At that time, many dead skeletons also collapsed. The alchemy furnace finally settled in the Taoist temple.

I still remember that when I went to Lu Palace, there was a mountain landslide in that village, and a pit of human heads and a tripod collapsed.The places we went to all had large-scale collective piles of corpses, and the tomb where the alchemy furnace was shaken was also in a mountain in Shandong.

The corpse cave we went to before was a huge water robber cave. A cave that big is just a robber cave. You also said that it was a large tomb. It should be part of the Western Zhou Tomb. Then the original Western Zhou Tomb was How big it has to be.

The most important thing is that the alchemy furnace unearthed in Shandong can unlock the contents of the silk scrolls unearthed in Hunan. This alchemy furnace should have been shaken out of the tomb of King Zhou Mu in Qixing Lu Palace. The bloody corpse in Biaoziling was from Lu Palace. It should be possible to determine who lost it.

But the picture couldn't be explained, so Jude Kao thought about acquiring other pictures to find clues. Jie Lianhuan helped Jude Kao go to Gou Wuye to get information.It's a pity that Gou Wuye is very tight-lipped.Later, Jie Lianhuan asked his third uncle to inquire.As a result, the third uncle who was interested in the things recorded in Gou Wuye's notes at that time, drank wine and talked a lot, and told the story of how the silk books of the Warring States Period were stolen from Biaoziling.

Jude Kao would never let go of the opportunity to get close to the secret, so the third uncle saw Jude Kao and his camp in Biaozi Ridge.The third uncle rushed in the night before, probably hoping to find useful clues before Jude took the exam.However, he accidentally released the Corpse Dragon King, and Jude was in bad luck the next day.It's just a coincidence that the two of them went there at the same time. Is it really just a coincidence or is it intentional?I prefer the latter, because the third uncle is also rushing ahead of him to find clues.Maybe that will be the case.

After experiencing that incident, Jude Kao was greatly shocked, but then someone gave Jude Kao detailed and accurate information about the Xisha Undersea Tomb, which rekindled his hope of finding the method of immortality. Who provided the information?It must not be our partner, otherwise we wouldn't have to rush to do things before Jude's exam every time.One month before the Xisha archaeological team set off, Xie Huanhuan wanted to ask his third uncle to tell Wen Jin that they would go to Xisha together and help Jude with the exam.

We have studied the Xisha matter before, and I still stick to my previous idea. The problem lies with Jie Lianlian, Wu Sansheng and that Qi Yu.

Someone attacked them on the day they were buried early. The third uncle couldn't stay to understand Lian Lian, but something happened to Lian Lian.This should have something to do with seeing those words on the bottom of the sea.

It’s just that the third uncle said that he was following us. The one looking at the mirror in front and the one who stunned everyone was not him. There was also Wu Sansheng in front of us and Wu Sansheng in the back. This is impossible. If there are really two people, then there must be a fake one. .

However, the two of them looked so similar, and it was unreasonable to say that Xie Lianhua was dead. I remember saying that I suspected that the body was not Jie Lianhua, but I didn't know who it was.

He also said that it was because Huo Ling stopped you that you didn't see clearly.And Huo Ling was the only one who saw that man's face and said it was Wu Sansheng.He seemed to think Huo Ling was the one with the problem.

Also, he always said you were the one lying, but it was obviously not like that... This third uncle is a bit weird. "When I said this, I looked at my brother and paused.

Seeing that the little brother didn't say a word, I had to continue: "But the reason why they went to the tomb early the first day was because Jude wanted to ask Ji Lianhuan to take a picture of the bottom of the ancient tomb and place it in Wang Zanghai's coffin room. The appearance of the corpse.

This coffin is very special. It is a black carved iron coffin. On it is a bronze statue of a man with clouds and sideburns, an exaggerated face, thick and short limbs like insect legs, and a mouth that is neither smiling nor angry. It tries its best to open its mouth as if it is screaming.The mouth of the bronze figure is recessed from the coffin lid. There is a deep hole in the coffin lid. The carvings are shallow but very distinct, and there are a large number of bird seal characters.The third uncle said it was a "whistle coffin" sealed with pig iron and with holes in the body.

He also told a story about Zhang Yancheng, who is said to be a descendant of General Cao Cao Faqiu.It is said that the five fingers of his left hand are extremely long and almost even. He can raise hills from flat ground, taste the soil to find tombs, and his tomb robbing skills are extremely impressive.

This man was a warlord. He and Sun Yat-sen went on the Northern Expedition. Zhang Yancheng was ordered to raise military pay, so he used ancient methods to rob tombs and march north. This was the same as the work of King Lu Shang.

It is said that this person robs tombs, and there is a special routine. If he encounters a coffin opened in a bloody and evil place, he will drizzle the coffin with cow blood and observe the reaction of the coffin. If there is an abnormal sound in the coffin, the coffin owner may have died. When the coffin changes, the soldiers will drag the coffin out of the ancient tomb to expose it to the sun and then open it.If there is no abnormal movement in the coffin, you should look at the surface of the coffin. In most cases, the cow blood will not coagulate and flow along the body of the coffin to the bottom of the coffin. This means that there is nothing wrong and the coffin is open and safe.

But there is also a very special situation, that is, after the cow blood is poured, it is like pouring on the sand and stone, and the blood seeps into the coffin body, which is an even more unlucky omen than the corpse. Something, probably not a human corpse.

The coffins contained either human corpses or unexplainable corpses.In China, such things are collectively called demons.

At this time, Zhang Yancheng will order people to dig a pit on the spot, sink the demon coffin in the pit, smear the mud, burn the weapons, and seal the coffin with molten iron, leaving only a hole on the top of the coffin that can only allow one hand to pass through. When the molten iron condenses, he enters the coffin with one hand and explores the contents.

When exploring the cave, he would order someone to hold his arm with a three-foot pipa scissor, and tie the "knock handle" to the horse's tail so that if he felt something was wrong, others could whip the horse immediately. If the horse was frightened, he would run away and pull the engine. , the extremely sharp pipa scissors will immediately cut off, cutting off the hand to save your life.

The coffin treated in this way, because there is a hole on it, will eventually become something similar to a huge iron whistle, so it is called "Whistle Coffin".

It is said that Zhang Yancheng used his two-finger caving skills only three times in his life, and he escaped with his arms. The best time was when he took out a 24-scented golden grape from the coffin, which was only the size of a molar tooth. It is said that It was hidden in the mouth of the corpse.Zhang Yancheng later joined the warlords in the melee and his whereabouts are unknown. Some people say that he defected to the revolution. Finally, he died in a shelter during the "Cultural Revolution". Others say that he died in Huanggutun.After all, he is a mysterious figure.

It is said that a bronze coffin similar to what Zhang Yancheng said was found in the mud where the Yellow River was diverted before liberation. There was indeed a hole as thick as an arm on the top of the coffin, but no one dared to reach in. Even those who were brave enough to use fire tongs could only use it. There was a lot of yellow mud inside.Later, I heard that the coffin was thrown directly into the steel-making furnace for refining. I don’t know if anything happened to it.

There are coffins like this in the undersea tomb. There are also bronze coffins. The one in the undersea tomb is made of black iron, not a human corpse. People with the surname Zhang who can use two fingers to explore the cave can touch it, but it is very dangerous.This should be related to the Zhang family.Can it be said that Jude Kao is looking for something from the Zhang family?
