Taoism moves mountains

Chapter 179 Tomb of the Dian King

Although the King of Dian was just a vassal king of a small southern barbarian country, he was also a king, the king of a country.

[Why did he choose to be buried in such a sinister cave? Doesn't he understand? Or being deceived? 】Jiang Yang has already begun to speculate in his mind...

[It’s just that this tomb was built by a Taoist master. Logically speaking, it is impossible for a righteous person to do such an immoral thing, and it is impossible to do it. 】

People who practice Taoism are most afraid of getting involved in matters involving dynasty and hegemony, as the karma and retribution involved are very large. If you do it right, it will be fine, and the merits will be immeasurable. If you do it wrong, you will be burdened with karma, and your life's Taoism will disappear.

I can’t figure it out…

"Are you sure that the evil cave of Mingzhu in the water is really here?" Min Gushao walked around the altar and then asked again.

Jiang Yang did not answer him immediately, but stood on the altar and surveyed the surrounding Feng Shui situation again.

He looked down at the lake, groves, lakes around the island, mountains on all sides...

What appears in front of you is a piece of green, surrounded by green seals, with clear wind and light clouds. This should be a good acupuncture point. Why is it a "dark bead in the water"?
  "Do you think someone would have changed the Feng Shui here later? Otherwise, the ancient Dian Kingdom would not have surrendered to the Han Dynasty and become a vassal state a hundred years after the death of the King of Dian." Chen Yukuan came over at this time, and then also expressed his opinion.

The tomb they were looking for was that of the founding king of the ancient Dian Kingdom, and he was the only one related to King Xian.

Civil strife occurred in the ancient Dian Kingdom at the beginning of its founding.

Jianguo became king, and the loser left to establish the Xianguo dynasty in the mountains beside the Lancang River and Lake.

The Xian Dynasty has no information at all in history and died in one lifetime.

After the surviving tribesmen returned, they would definitely seek refuge with the Dian King.

Therefore, those who have relevant information about the tomb of King Xian are the first Dian kings.

The feng shui of the tomb of the first Dian king is closely related to the fortune of future generations. If the feng shui of his tomb is destroyed, it will definitely affect the national destiny of the Dian Kingdom.

Therefore, what Chen Yukuan said is also very reasonable.

"You mean, this is supposed to be the 'Pearl in the Water' auspicious cave, so it makes sense that a Taoist master would participate in the construction of the tomb.

In this case, the lake at the foot of the mountain should be living water. Living water releases yin energy, which is considered a lucky point.

By the way, the traces of mudslides we saw by the lake before were probably landslides that blocked the inlet and outlet of the lake, which made us mistakenly think that the lake was stagnant water. "

Jiang Yang analyzed it one by one, connected it back and forth, and finally solved the doubts.

After listening to what Jiang Yang said, both Min Gushao and Chen Yuguan smiled sincerely. After all, resolving doubts in their hearts often brings a feeling of relief.

However, although they knew that this was originally a good point, they also understood that it had become a bad point for more than two thousand years, and there was no doubt that ferocious and filthy things might have been bred in it.

"There are no other findings outside." Hong Guliang came back to report the results of his survey.

"I didn't find it here either." Hua Ling'er also came back.

Min Gushao sighed and patted the stone pillar next to him.

"Snapped!"

[This sound is wrong! 】

Jiang Yang suddenly raised his head and looked at the stone pillar next to the whistle.

Min Gushao also raised his head and looked at Shizhu in surprise, then glanced at Jiang Yang, and saw Jiang Yang nodded to him.

The five people immediately started walking around, knocking on the stone pillars around them, and the sounds were abnormal.

"The mechanism is in the stone pillar!" Chen Yugan said quickly, very sure. After all, there is space inside the good stone pillar, so it would be strange if there is no mechanism. “Look for it quickly!” Jiang Yang urged.

Not long after, Min Gushao and others found a small rusty copper ring at the root of each stone pillar.

The four of them pulled up the copper ring together, and then the altar made a "click" sound.

They saw the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram slowly sinking, and then opened to both sides, revealing a staircase that sloped downward.

Everyone was overjoyed!
  "Let's go!" Min Gu whistled, then led the way up to the altar and looked down at the entrance of the tomb.

He took out a small hollow iron ball, rubbed it against the stone slab on the ground, and the small fire ball burst into flames.

These are the kerosene balls prepared by Jiang Yang, and they are also among the equipment imported by Jie Jiu.

The outside of this kerosene ball is a hollow iron catalpa, and inside is a ball of cloth soaked in kerosene and refined. It is connected to a special small phosphorus strip, which generates heat through friction. The phosphorus strip naturally ignites the cloth ball.

After the kerosene ball was lit, the whistle was thrown into the tomb.

"Clang! Dangdang..."

The fire of the kerosene ball did not go out, and it burned more and more vigorously, indicating that there was sufficient oxygen below.

Moreover, it can also trigger traps. There is no other movement, indicating that there are no obvious traps for the time being.

Seeing this situation, Min Gushao nodded to Jiang Yang and Chen Yuguan, and took the lead to walk down.

"You stay up there and wait for me to come up." This time, Jiang Yang did not bring the angry-eyed phoenix to the tomb. He estimated that there should be no poisonous insects or beasts in the tomb of King Dian, so he just used No more angry-eyed phoenix!
  "Kick-kick-kick." The angry-eyed phoenix nodded a few times and called a few times, as if he understood.

Jiang Yang then went to the tomb with Hua Ling'er.

After walking up the steps, there is a long stone corridor, which is very dark in the depths.

There is also a stone tablet thirty centimeters wide and half a meter high erected in front of the corridor!

At this time, Chen Yukuan was looking at it with a flashlight.

Seeing Jiang Yang coming down, Chen Yuguan smiled and said, "Looking from the tombstone, this is indeed the tomb of the first Dian king of the ancient Dian Kingdom."

Judging from his happy look, it seemed that he was sure that there were countless gold and jade treasures waiting for him in the tomb.

"That's right!" Jiang Yang nodded.

Everyone walked past the tombstones and saw many narrative relief murals carved on the walls of the corridor. For more than two thousand years, this place has been closed, and the murals were not damaged much and can still be clearly seen.

Jiang Yang looked at it with a flashlight: "Senior brother, can you interpret these murals?"

Min Gushao is still very experienced in interpreting some ancient murals, so this matter is still left to him.

He nodded and observed carefully.

"This seems to be the costume of the Chu State during the Warring States Period. It seems to mean that the people of the Chu State led the army to Dianchi Lake, went through battles, and finally became king and established the country here." Min Gushao pointed to the mural on the left and explained that the contents of the rest of the murals are Some cultural contents of interest-bearing work.

"The relief murals in most ancient tombs describe the life stories of the tomb owners, and some princes and generals are not exempt from vulgarity." Chen Yugan said disdainfully.

Who doesn’t want to be a marquis of ten thousand households during his lifetime? Who doesn’t want to leave a legacy after death?
  People always hope to do more spectacular things while alive, so that after death, they can let the world know that they existed.

"What about the murals on the right?" Hua Ling'er was not very interested in those who left their names in history, and urged Min Gushao to continue looking at the murals on the right.

So, several people turned to the right and looked over.
