Tomb Raiders Discovery: The Ghost Spell of Pangu

The third brother pointed to the buildings in the distance and said: "I think there may be other exits in this place. You see, they burned down the houses before they left. Damn, they are all built of wood! Are those carts loaded with wood instead of food?"

"It's very possible. Let's go and have a look." Uncle Li led his group to those buildings first.

My father reminded: "Don't be so impulsive, those Japanese may have guns. Try to shine your flashlight on the ground so as not to alert them."

The group of people walked not far before reaching the first building. Indeed, as the third brother said, these buildings were all made of wood, and all of them were severely burned, and the roofs had collapsed.But what made everyone feel relieved was that no corpse was found here, not to mention the heavy yin, it was just a house where someone once lived here and burned it down before leaving.

Everyone walked along the building, and found that something was wrong as they walked. This row of buildings was not arranged in a straight line at all, but a curved diagonal line.Of course, this is not enough to attract everyone's attention. When it makes everyone feel bad, almost all the buildings are arranged very strangely, and there are many unnecessary inflection points, which not only make people feel messy but also very crowded, and some There are only a few houses in the place, and other than that, there is no building in a radius of more than ten meters.

Because they were eager to track down those Japanese, everyone didn't stop to study carefully, but they searched the stone platform, which was only 300 meters long and wide, but they never found those people again.On the contrary, in the center of the building, I saw a place that looked like an altar. However, it was nothing new to have an altar in the tomb, and everyone didn't pay attention to it.

"Fourth Master, where are they?" Da Zhuang asked.

The father was a little annoyed and said: "Everyone line up for me and search in a carpet-like manner. I don't believe so many of them say nothing!"

This is the best idea at the moment. If those Japanese can go ahead of us, they will definitely know more than us. If we can follow them, it may be easier to discover the truth about this ancient tomb of the Dong nationality.

More than 30 people lined up in a line, and the distance between almost every two people was less than ten meters. Just like this, everyone walked from one end of the stone platform to the other without seeing a single person.Just when everyone was confused, Chai Yu suddenly said something even more incredible: "All the buildings here have been sprinkled with cinnabar!"

"Cinnabar?!" Everyone was taken aback, and Wu Jiayi questioned, "Is it the kind of cinnabar used in Taoist practice?"

Chai Yu nodded: "I walked all the way just now, and I found this thing around almost every house." As he spoke, he stretched out his palms and took a light with the flashlight, and his hands were covered with that kind of vermilion cinnabar.

"Why sprinkle cinnabar on the house?" Da Zhuang asked puzzled.

Chai Yu shook his head, also very puzzled: "I don't think it's as simple as we thought."

Uncle Li murmured, "It's strange. There isn't a single ethnic group in the Southwest who sprinkles cinnabar on their houses when they build them. Brother Chai is right. There is no need to burn down the houses here. It would damage something, but it was burned. According to the customs of the Dong people, there is no such thing as spreading cinnabar on the house, but it did. This is really strange."

"The cinnabar... burned... I understand!" The father muttered indistinctly, and then shouted to a few guys: "Baldy, take a few people and arrange them according to the house, and give them to me on the paper. Draw it."

A few of the guys rushed to take orders, Ah Fei asked puzzled, "Fourth Master, what's going on?"

The father seemed a little anxious and said: "Don't ask so many questions, you can take someone to see a few rooms that haven't collapsed yet." Ah Fei said "Hey" and hurriedly took people there.

Not long after I went there, I heard A Fei shout: "Fourth Master, there is someone in the house! Burned to death!"

Everyone hurried over, and sure enough, in the room Ah Fei found, they saw three charcoal-black corpses, but what puzzled everyone was that two of the three corpses were still lying on the bed!And judging from the posture after death, it seems that he died before the burning, otherwise he was burned to death in his sleep. Of course, this possibility does not exist.

Ah Fei opened several other rooms. Without exception, there were people who were burned to death in each room, but judging from the postures after death, it seemed that few people had struggled before death.

Da Zhuang stared at a pair of bull's eyes and said: "My god, this is a collective suicide of thousands of people!"

Everyone looked at the rows of burnt buildings in front of them, and couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. There are hundreds of houses here, and there are at least three people in each of them. Calculated, more than 600 years ago, there were thousands of people. Mass self-immolation here! ?Thinking about the tragic scene at that time, one can't help but feel a chill!

The father said coldly: "This is not suicide, but being killed!"

"How do you say that?" Uncle Li asked in surprise.

Father didn't speak, and waited until those who had gone to draw pictures came back, looked at the pictures on the paper, and then said: "Brother Ang, Brother Chai, you should be able to understand this thing?" two people.

I glanced at the paper, and it looked like a word, but it didn't look like it, because I haven't seen so many murals.However, when the two of them saw the painting on the paper, their faces turned pale, and they only heard Uncle Li murmur: "This, this, this is a spell! But, I don't know what it is for?"

Chai Yu shook his head: "I don't know much about talismans, I only know that there are many kinds, and I don't know what this one is for."

I took the paper and looked at it, and saw that there were indeed two lines of writing on the paper, but the two lines of writing formed two circles, and the altar was drawn in the center of the circle.I can basically recognize these two circles of characters. The inner circle is written with the four characters '唵佛莲輆', followed by a strange thing, with a character A in the middle, and then a vertical line of the character A. The end is extended and circled three times around the character A.There is an earth character sandwiched between the first circle of characters and the second circle of characters, but the horizontal line below the earth character is so long that it almost circles around all the first circle of characters, and the outermost four characters,' There is a swastika after the four characters Jie Xing Feng Sha.

I have occasionally seen some long talismans in movies before, but they all seem to be long. I have never seen this kind of shape: "Why is this different from what I have seen before?" I muttered.

Chai Yu pointed out: "Put these two circles of characters vertically in a row, and the horizontal line under the soil is like a clock, covering the four characters of Jie Xing Feng Sha, don't you think it looks like it?" Suddenly realized, he added a sentence later: "The magic talisman can be changed according to the actual situation."

"By the way, fourth master, when we were drawing the picture just now, we also found a big ebony coffin." Bald Er said suddenly.

"Why didn't you say it earlier! Hurry up, go and have a look." After finishing speaking, the father urged the bald boy to lead the way.

The crowd followed Bald and they climbed up to the altar. Right at the center of the top of the altar, they saw a huge black coffin sunken deep in the altar. The top was level with the ground of the altar. You won't find it even if you go around the altar three times.

This important discovery made everyone very excited, and my father immediately ordered someone to open the coffin.Several guys who looked like veterans stepped forward, circled the black coffin, and then took out a few hooks from the backpack, and broke open the altar at the four corners of the black coffin, and lifted the hooks from the smashed coffin. It reached down through the open gap, hooked the edge of the coffin lid upside down, and then gestured to the crowd. More than a dozen staff hurriedly surrounded it, pulled the ropes at the four corners like a tug-of-war, and struggled to lift it up.From the middle of the two sides of the black coffin, four men from the two outer sides respectively inserted an iron chisel into the top of the side panel, two by two, one person supported, and the other held a stone and smashed the iron chisel.

Following several muffled bangs, only the rivets between the top and side panels of the black coffin creaked. After an unknown number of smashes, there was a sudden "bang", and the coffin lid suddenly rose above the ground. More than a dozen of the staff hurriedly gathered around, grabbed the coffin board with both hands, and lifted the huge coffin lid to the side.

When the contents of the coffin appeared in front of everyone's eyes, everyone couldn't help being dumbfounded. There was nothing in the huge black coffin, not even anything to be buried with!I suddenly had a feeling of being cheated. I am afraid that I really went to the wrong place this time. However, thinking about it, how could Dara, as a wizard, bury himself in this place where thousands of charred corpses lay? Here, there is not even a decent burial chamber.Thinking of this, an idea suddenly appeared in my mind. As soon as this idea came out, I felt as cold as falling into an ice cave. All these signs showed that Dara didn't seem to be dead at all. There should be a purpose here!

Just as I was about to raise my doubts, Wu Jiayi asked casually, "Is Dara still alive?"

"I think so too. Even if he really died, he shouldn't be buried here." I added, and Wu Jiayi smiled knowingly at me.

My father seemed to have expected that the coffin would be empty, so he didn't show too much surprise. Anyway, he nodded slightly, as if to verify his thoughts, and said to everyone: "I don't know if you still remember, let's go to this ancient city. Before the entrance of the tomb, there was a cave with many murals painted in it. I can’t remember how many of them are the last one. Anyway, there is a pagoda in the last one or two. Under the pagoda, there is a legendary goblin. , and then a group of people appeared in front of the pagoda, seemingly praying, and finally a human-like thing came out of the pagoda."

"I remember that a pagoda appeared in the third from last one, and a person emerged from the pagoda in the last one." I echoed, and then added: "According to the Shan Hai Jing, this pagoda should be called the Eight Treasures Pagoda."
