Zong Tomb: Starting from Huangpizi Tomb

Chapter 107 Manying reporter’s notes
  Bai Jing looked at the iron shell and said with some uncertainty, "This seems to be the entrance of a ship?"

When the fat man heard Bai Jing's words, he immediately said doubtfully: "But where did the ship come from in this deep mountain and forest?"

This was exactly the doubt of those present.

This place is located on the edge of the Daxingan Mountains, hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest sea. Even a river large enough for ships to enter and exit must be at least dozens of kilometers away.

What kind of ship can sail to such a place?

After some discussion, everyone decided to enter the ship and take a look, so they did as they were told. Although there was rust on the roulette wheel at the entrance, the hatch was not closed, and everyone opened the door in a few seconds.

Looking inside through the hatch, it was dark and nothing could be seen inside, and there was a damp and rotten smell coming out.

Just in case, Bai Jing stayed outside this time, and only Fatty and Bai Qi went in.

After a while, Bai Jing suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked up at the sky and immediately shouted: "Let's go, it's going to rain heavily. This place may be flooded later."

After hearing Bai Jing's words, Bai Qi and Fatty entered the cabin and quickly transported their things outside.

Everyone rushed to help, and after a while, Bai Qi and Fatty came up.

Everyone took their things and ran towards higher ground.

Finally, everyone stopped under a rock wall. Several people sat under the rock wall and watched the rain outside flow down, flooding the place where they had been from a distance.

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment with lingering fears.

Then everyone took out the things brought out of the cabin and looked at them.

These things seem to belong to an organization called 'Manying'.

Jian Guo knew about this organization that it was a special film-making organization set up by the Japanese army during the puppet Manchukuo period, and it was said to have the task of filming documentaries accompanying the army.

Bai Jing took a look at these things. First there was a box. When he opened it, it was all filled with films and the like. But because so many years had passed and the environment here had become like this, he didn't know how much could be saved and used. of.

Then everyone found a notebook.

Although this diary is written in Japanese, Bai Jing studied Japanese by himself for a period of time after the incident at Baiyan Cave, so he was able to understand the contents of this diary.

It turned out that the Japanese who wrote the diary was a photographer in charge of Manchuria Film. At that time, he, along with several other Manchurian film staff, were ordered to shoot a documentary about the army and write correspondence at the same time.

It is used to promote the victory of militarism, and at the same time to cover up the fact that the island country is losing ground in the Pacific battlefield, and his main task is to take photos and write correspondence.

At that time, cinemas in the Northeast region had to show one or two additional films before showing any movie. Some showed the king's paradise, while others showed the imperial army's crusade against Huzi. Huzi was what the Northeastern people called bandits. .

At that time, these full-screen photographers were organized into a crusade team. It was said that there was a group of gold bandits in the deep mountains. With the high mountains and dense forests, they repeatedly resisted the imperial army's crusade.

After these expedition teams entered the mountains, they did not find the village where the golden bandits were located, because when they arrived, they discovered that the high mountains where the golden bandits were located had now turned into a swamp. The village where the golden bandits were located was probably Already submerged.

In name, these troops went into the mountains to fight against the gold bandits, but their actual purpose was to peek at the gold veins in the mountains. For this purpose, the Japanese also mobilized the Moth river gunboat, which was the ship they saw before.

The Moth river gunboat searched everywhere on the river, but after searching for three days in a row, nothing was fished out. In the end, the river collapsed, and a big hole collapsed under the water. The Japanese from the expedition team also came together with the river gunboat. And fell into the cracks in the ground.

As the saying goes, a moth flies into a flame but never comes back. If you fall in from above, can you still get out?

In the records written by Manchu Ying News photographers, there are detailed information about the golden bandits' village, including the golden bandits worshiping the Gray Immortal and throwing living people into the golden cave to offer sacrifices, and even the people in the village. We all know exactly how many guns and ammunition there are.

Bai Jing recalled it and found that the above data matched the numbers on the account books they had found in that village.

It can be seen that this group of devils came prepared.

But what they didn't expect was that not only did they not find the village on this trip, but the Moth river gunboat also got stuck in a crack in the ground.

At that time, due to the obstruction of the current, the Japanese's expedition team could only go deeper, so they did not pass the village that was submerged in the ground.

The expedition team saw ancient rock paintings in the cracks in the ground. The rock paintings depict the totem of the sun, which symbolizes a huge plant.

The vines stretched out by this plant can penetrate the ground and absorb the sunlight from the mountains through the forest, and finally transmit it to the ground through the vines. This allows grass, trees and even forests to grow in the underground world.

Ancient people called this underground light-concentrating plant "the fragment of the sun", which is the precious flower in Buddhist legend, and also called it the Buddha flower.

There are many records about Buddha flowers in Buddhist scriptures since the Tang Dynasty, and this precious flower is the first of the twenty-four Buddha flowers. It is known as a fragment of the sun. It grows underground, but it can emit thousands of meters of light and shine for ten thousand years. square world.

Generally speaking, it is the eight directions, and the ten directions are the upper and lower directions, and the upper refers to the world and the earth.

The legend of Baoxianghua was introduced to Japan during the Tang Dynasty, so this Manying correspondent also knew a little bit about it.

At that time, the expedition team that went to find a way out never came back, and the rest of the people were also dead or injured. Several wounded people, including this Manying correspondent, were trapped in the half-submerged boat before. Rivers and gunboats until they ran out of ammunition and food.

And the record left in the notebook ends here.

What happened later is of course self-evident. The Japanese's punitive team was completely wiped out, and eventually they were all trapped underground.

After interpreting the notes, everyone looked at the glowing 'cables' in the distance and understood that these were the vines of Baoxianghua.

And the mark on the murals and stone door reliefs they saw in the tomb of the Queen Mother of Liao Dynasty was not an eyeball, but the Baoxianghua recorded in the Buddhist scriptures.

The few rays of light around the whirlpool are actually the vines of Baoxianghua stretching out in all directions.

For a moment, everyone fell into deep thought.

This vine is as thick as several people hugging it, so how big should the Baoxiang flower in the middle be?
  For a moment, everyone's thoughts were wandering to nowhere.
