Chapter 442: Guanshan Taibao and Yaowang Pavilion
Chapter 442: Guanshan Taibao and Yaowang Pavilion
Go down the long and narrow corridor.
A queue of hundreds of people formed a long dragon in the corridor.
The light inside the corridor was dim and pitch black.
However, during this trip, various lighting equipment had already been prepared, so the visibility problem did not hinder much.
However, the length of this corridor is somewhat astonishing. It goes from the higher position on the top of the mountain directly to the Medicine King Pavilion at the bottom.
It almost connects from the waist of Pingshan Mountain to the bottom of the mountain in one breath.
The length is about several hundred meters.
Continue walking until you reach the last section of the corridor.
In an inconspicuous corner of rubble, a body in black clothes was sitting cross-legged on the ground, causing those in the queue who noticed him to let out a series of low exclamations.
After all, this place is the legendary Pingshan Ancient Tomb, and the legend of the Corpse King has long spread far and wide.
Even though they had seen many coffins along the way, most of the corpses inside had already weathered away completely, or only a skeleton was left.
How could a human body be preserved so well after hundreds and thousands of years?
What's more, this is an intact corpse that has escaped from the sealed coffin and is exposed outside!
Subconsciously, the legend of the Xiangxi Corpse King, which had long been spread in the local Miao village, suddenly came to the minds of most people present.
In the corridor
In the dark corner, there is a problem of gravel and dim light.
This made the corpse, dressed entirely in black, seem a little inconspicuous.
But after seeing it clearly, I couldn't help but feel a little creepy.
Hua Ma walked behind Chen Yulou and whispered, "Shopkeeper, could this really be the Corpse King that was rumored?"
Beside her, Red Girl retorted, "No, look at him, he's dressed in black, and he's tall and strong. I think he's more like the evil ghost of Impermanence in the legend."
Chen Yulou was a little speechless: Why are you talking more and more nonsense...
However, as everyone approached the corpse, the cages of poison-testing pigeons carried by the Xiangling people suddenly began to become restless.
Chen Yulou frowned immediately: "Is there any poison near this corpse?"
Partridge Whistle thought for a moment and said, "No, it's not the area nearby, but there's something wrong with this corpse."
"Brother Chen, look at his pale face, dark forehead, purple nose and wide mouth, and gray beard. This man is most likely dead from poison."
The old foreigner asked curiously, "Are they those poisonous insects in the mountains again?"
Partridge Whistle shook his head: "No, those poisonous insects are more poisonous and can easily rot corpses. What happened to this person doesn't seem to be caused by poisonous insects."
Hua Ling: "Brother, is he really the Xiangxi Corpse King that is rumored?"
Xiangxi Corpse King...
This name has already gained considerable popularity.
Hearing these words again, some people in the team couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
Partridge Whistle and Chen Yulou subconsciously looked at Song Ren, who had not said a word the whole time, and Master Wu, who was deep in thought.
In this regard, I'm afraid they are the only two experts.
Seeing this, Master Wu observed for a moment and then shook his head:
"This seems to be just an ordinary corpse, with no signs of transformation. In other words, he is not the so-called corpse king, and he is not even a zombie."
"As for why this corpse has remained immortal for so many years, I guess it has something to do with the cause of his death."
After hearing this, everyone in the field became more curious.
After all, most of the people present were experts in tomb robbing.
There is not much reverence for corpses.
It can even be said that the Xiangling faction's traditional style has always been to conduct a thorough search of the tomb owner.
After all, among the four major tomb-robbing schools, Xiangling Lishi has always been known for his brutal style of digging three feet into the ground without leaving a single tile behind.
It was common practice to strip the tomb owner of his clothes, scrape his body, and extract his marrow.
Now, with such a strange corpse in front of them, the Xiangling faction certainly didn't want to let him go.
However, Song Ren just spoke up, interrupting everyone's discussion:
"Stop arguing. This corpse is not some Xiangxi Corpse King, but a tomb robber from the Ming Dynasty."
Upon hearing this, Partridge Whistle and Chen Yulou suddenly raised their heads: Colleagues from the Ming Dynasty?!
While Song Ren was speaking, he had already bent down and took out a waist badge made of pure gold from under the torn clothes at the waist of the corpse.
The pure gold waist badge is about the size of a palm and weighs less than half a pound.
On the front are four characters written in small seal script from the Qin Dynasty:
Guanshan Taibao!
Although the font on the waist badge is the small seal script of the Qin Dynasty, it is a bit confusing in terms of its age.
However, the name Guanshan Taibao actually refers to a tomb-robbing school that only appeared during the Ming Dynasty.
It is also one of the two more powerful factions besides the four traditional factions of Fa Qiu, Mo Jin, Ban Shan and Xi Ling.
One of these two factions is the corpse-carrying people from western Hunan, who are best at carrying the body into the coffin and then robbing the tomb, thus making a big name for themselves.
The other possibility is the faction to which the corpse in front of us belonged during his lifetime - Guanshan Taibao.
Song Ren gave a brief introduction, and then continued to add:
"I heard that during the Ming Dynasty, Guanshan Taibao worked with the royal family to build a mausoleum specifically for them."
"This faction has always been very secretive, and few outsiders have heard of them."
"I heard that Guanshan Taibao focused on mastering the Lingpu and Dunjia techniques."
Song Ren looked up and down at the corpse sitting on the ground and continued to speak calmly:
"Judging from his attire and body shape, this Guanshan Taibao must have practiced a very advanced bone-shrinking technique when he was alive."
"This secret method is said to be able to shrink to a size that allows one to freely travel through the Cat and Dog Cave, but there should be a certain time limit."
"If it lasts too long, it will be easy to die on the spot."
"As for the specific cause of his death, it should be poison."
Song Ren looked at the pale face on Guanshan Taibao's body, as well as the dark purple blood vessels that were spreading out, and said:
"It is probably to avoid the poisonous insects in Pingshan. He soaked his whole body in a special potion. In this way, he also avoided the perception and attack of the poisonous insects."
"However, this special poison obviously has a time limit. This person probably has not been able to escape for a long time and is unable to wash off the poison from his body, so he was trapped and died here."
"But, even so, this guy is still amazing. He was able to get here by himself. Wow, he has some skills."
Chen Yulou: ...Good fellow, the legendary and mysterious Guanshan Taibao is about to have his cards exposed just by a few words from you.
Partridge Whistle seemed to be listening with considerable interest.
Just when he was about to observe it again, he saw Song Ren had already taken out a yellow talisman, pinched it between two fingers, and with a hiss, a flame ignited on the talisman paper.
Then he threw it on Guanshan Taibao's body, which immediately ignited the already somewhat weathered black attire.
A moment later, the flames engulfed the entire corpse.
Song Ren only took the pure gold waist badge as a commission for helping with the cremation.
Then, after walking a short distance forward, I finally saw a thick stone door blocking the end.
On the stone gate, there is a complicated dog-head lock with steel entanglement. The lock is covered with rust and looks very old.
Seeing this, Chen Yulou turned around and looked at Miss Hong: "How is it, can you handle it?"
Red Girl said uncertainly: "It should be possible, I'll try it first."
She was born in the Moon Gate, so she is particularly good at some unconventional techniques.
She can easily open ordinary locks with just a few strands of hair.
However, the lock in front of her was a little too large, and judging from the design alone, it was also very sophisticated, so Hong Girl did not have 100% confidence.
When she was about to step forward and try to unlock the door, she saw that Song Ren, the leader, had already twisted his body and kicked away!
boom! ! !
After a loud noise.
The shattered rocks flew everywhere!
The sophisticated and complex dog-head lock was broken by his kick.
Along with the heavy stone door, everything collapsed completely with a loud bang.
After finishing it, Song Rencai said slowly:
"No need to bother."
"As a top-level tomb-robbing school, we don't use our hands to open locks."
Girl Hong looked at the small tuft of hair that she had just pulled out, then looked at Song Ren's back, and thought to herself: If I really couldn't beat you, I would have fought you a few moves no matter what.
Song Ren led his men out of the cracked stone door, and a cold and sinister aura suddenly swept over them.
The temperature around dropped significantly.
The huge temperature difference, which was so eerie and cold, made people shiver unconsciously.
A long queue entered the spacious and magnificent Yaowang Pavilion one after another.
The area here has been completely enclosed by iron walls.
In addition to the stone door that had just been broken open, there was also a stone door that was also blocked in another direction.
In addition, the most eye-catching thing is the huge and gloomy osmanthus tree in the center of Yaowang Pavilion.
A strange osmanthus tree grows in the iron wall, its trunk is uneven and shrouded in a hazy mist.
At first glance, it looks like the tree trunk is covered with human faces, which is extremely creepy at first glance.
Song Ren walked over and took a look: Is this big tree the corpse laurel described in the original book?
In the original book, Corpse Osmanthus is a laurel tree with yin attributes.
It absorbs the corpse qi from the underground palace above the Medicine King Pavilion, which is the Danjing, and thus grows in this special environment.
The corpse cinnamon will continue to emit a cold and chilly air, which will prevent the medicines stored in the Medicine King Pavilion from deteriorating too early and extend the usage time of the medicines here.
The original book described that the juice in the trunk of the corpse cinnamon tree was as red as human blood.
Out of curiosity, Song Ren peeled off a layer, and sure enough, a bright red color seeped out from inside.
This scene was also noticed by some people nearby, and immediately caused some exclamations.
Song Ren didn't care too much and continued to wander around.
Four two-story ancient buildings were built on the four sides of this corpse osmanthus tree.
These buildings are open-air rooms for storing items. The doors and windows on all four sides are made of iron, which makes the light inside extremely dark.
In addition, some alchemy rooms were built in the corners of the Medicine King Pavilion.
Above the top of the higher attic, there are countless evil spirits carved in colorful relief.
At first sight, it makes one's hair stand on end.
Hua Maguai couldn't help but mutter, "What the hell is going on in this place? It feels so gloomy and it seems to be getting colder and colder."
As a tomb robber, he didn't really believe in ghosts and gods, but this place was so gloomy and eerie that it was still a little too creepy.
A relief of an evil spirit above the head.
A strange osmanthus tree with a human face and human blood.
A thin mist was spreading in the belly of the mountain.
And a clearly unreasonable sense of cold temperature.
None of this obviously makes sense.
Hua Maguai couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Now even he feels a little nervous, let alone others.
When everyone was in a tense mood, a loud bang suddenly came from somewhere!
The cautious crowd was suddenly startled.
They all turned their heads and saw that it was Song Ren who had easily overturned the heavy iron door of an open-air room with a violent kick.
Then, holding a torch, he, accompanied by Wangcai, entered one of the open-air buildings.
After a quick inspection of the two-story building, Song Ren finally thought to himself - the trip was not in vain.
This open-air room contains a large number of classic books, precious elixirs, and countless spiritual elixirs.
Even though most of the medicinal values have been lost over time, the spiritual objects, elixirs and classic books have always been well preserved.
In addition, if we also count the gold and silver utensils used to store medicines.
Just this Medicine King Pavilion can be said to have reaped a great harvest.
What's more, there is a delicate and exquisite jade statue of the Medicine Fairy placed in the open-air room, which is even more priceless.
However, when Song Ren was searching this open-air house, the terrified shouts of the engineering battalion members suddenly came from another open-air house.
After Song Ren rushed over, the others saw that it was him and immediately made way for him to take the main road.
When they approached the second floor of the open-air house, Partridge Whistle, Chen Yulou and others also hurried over.
Not far ahead, there was a slender figure standing with her back to the crowd.
It looks like the daily attire of women from official families during the Ming Dynasty.
A member of the engineering battalion fell to the ground, pointed at the back of the woman standing there, and said in panic: "Hey, this, how could there be other people in a place like this!"
Although the adjutant was also nervous and extremely uneasy, he felt more humiliated that his subordinates had embarrassed him in public.
He went up and slapped the subordinate, who was a little dazed, in the face, causing it to become swollen.
The adjutant gritted his teeth and said, "You are playing tricks. Are you scared by a mere woman like yours?"
Partridge Whistle was bold and careful. After confirming that there was no poison nearby, he took the initiative to step forward. Just as he was about to investigate, he heard Song Ren's voice from behind:
"Don't look at it, it's just a paper figure."
"I've heard that Guanshan Taibao has mastered the art of making paper figures. He can manipulate insects and ants to control paper figures and dig graves and steal treasures on his behalf."
"Now that we have the Guanshan Taibao in Pingshan, we can say that the paper figurines are also complete."
Upon hearing this, Partridge Whistle looked at the back of the woman in front of him again. Although she looked very lifelike, when he walked closer and took a closer look, he could indeed see the paper texture on her skin.
At the same time, the female figure seemed to be blown by the breath, and suddenly turned into countless black powders, falling all over the ground.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yulou couldn't help but say, "It seems that the Guanshan Taibao acted alone, and his action did not succeed, but he died here."
In this way, our Xiangling faction was not really defeated by them.
Partridge Whistle: Your desire to win is really strong...
