Notes on Tomb Raiders of Liu Bowen's Descendants

Chapter 5 Great Heng (1)
Although he was the only one in the whole house, Liu Ji still chose to act at night.For several days, Liu Ji visited all the houses in the house except the main house in the backyard, but found nothing.

These days, you have to be professional in everything you do. It seems that without Mr. Guo, I would not be able to find out where the secrets of the house are.Or if Chang Sheng came, maybe he could see some clues.But apart from family divination and geomancy, I am just an ordinary young man majoring in science and engineering, and I can't see the "brows and eyes" of this house or the underground kiln at all.

In the end, Liu Ji concluded that the problem should be within the main house.The secretary's confession before he left was obviously a secret.He finally decides to venture out to find out what secrets are hidden in the main house.

People have this kind of mentality, they will not give up until the Yellow River, and they will have nothing to do until the end, and they will not turn to other forces for help.Besides, Tu Xingren spends all day in the rivers and lakes, and he is old and mature. Liu Ji doesn't think that old man is a kind person.

In order to see success for the first time, he made some preparations in advance. In addition to the bright flashlight, he also bought the most expensive helmet in the auto and motorcycle market. The boss boasted that even if a whole brick fell from the [-]th floor, If it hits the hat, the wearer will never be hurt except for a moment of dizziness.Liu Ji half-jokingly smashed it with a brick for a long time, only to find that there were only a few white spots on the hat, so he felt relieved.

I have been helping Liu Ji all day long. The secretary who came to inspect the house a few days ago brought Liu Ji a home security tool—an electric baton. This is not usually used by the police. It looks like a black market product produced by a small manufacturer. Powerful, it is really a sharp weapon for killing people.It seems that this family does have some connections, and if it wasn't for the ban on guns in China, Liu Ji could really get a few guns.Liu Ji pressed the switch, and the flashing blue arc on the electric prod greatly boosted his confidence.

He cautiously opened the door, and there was a decaying smell coming from the room, with a little bit of sweetness and a faint smell of blood.Everything in the house had been removed, and it was empty, appearing to be very large.Only an old-fashioned hardwood bed remained against the wall, without any sign of being moved.

The floor of the room seemed very damp, and Liu Ji's sneakers were slippery after a few steps on the ground.He turned on the flashlight, and there were mottled dark red spots on the ground, which looked like bloodstains, which made Liu Ji's heart sink.On the four walls, the whitewashed walls are densely covered with condensed water droplets, which appear in this season, which is particularly mysterious.

The sudden squeak made Liu Ji feel his scalp go numb, and he couldn't help shivering.Turning around, I flashed the flashlight at the door, but found nothing, probably the sound of the wind blowing against the door.

He turned the light and walked towards the old hardwood bed.The light spread out on the wall inside the bed frame, making it look a little dim, and where the dewdrops lined up on the wall, there was a bright red that was very eye-catching under the light.

He knelt on the bed with one leg, leaned forward, and approached the bright red spot.The red is very deep, and this red should not only last a day or two on the wall, but it won't last too long.

He reached out his hand to touch the red spot on the wall, put his finger under his nose, and Liu Ji felt sick to his stomach. This red spot is definitely blood, and the smell of blood is so strong.The strange smell rushed into his nose and immediately rushed into his head, making his temples ache, and he had a violent urge to vomit.

"Damn!" Liu Ji leaned on the bed with one hand, panted for a while, and felt better.His legs trembled slightly.What kind of place is this? How can there be such a disgusting smell, which is stronger than the smell of a slaughterhouse in Liu Ji's impression.Looking at everything in the house, it seemed like a crime scene, and one could almost imagine the bloody scene.

He propped up the bed, trying to use his strength to stand up, but found that his hands seemed to be stuck with glue, and it was very difficult.Horrified, he shone the flashlight on the bed, only to find that the place where his hand was pressed was a sunken secret pothole, which was in the center of the bed.Rectangular, about the size of two bricks.Inside was a thick layer of soft, viscous stuff that gave off a strange smell and was sallow and sallow in color, like soap or candles melted in the summer.If you don't pay attention to look or touch this strange thing, it may be difficult to discover this secret.

Liu Ji pulled out his hand vigorously, and wiped the sticky substance on his body again and again.Judging from this room, the only thing of value is the bed and the blood on the wall, but even if this is a crime scene, what does it have to do with the big kiln that the old man said?Could it be that there was a tomb robber's fire here?

The bed is not bad, it is from the late Song Dynasty, and the value is considered expensive.But look at what it compares with, it's heaven and earth compared to that Lu Taobi, let alone a flower bed of plums and green lotuses.

Excluding all possibilities, Liu Ji believes that this viscous waxy-yellow substance is definitely the biggest discovery of his own exploration this time.

But I couldn't figure out what it was and why it appeared in the hole on the bed.Judging from the shape and location, the pothole is obviously a hidden compartment for keeping some secrets and precious items, so these materials must also be very precious.

However, thinking of the feeling of his hands being stuck just now, Liu Ji felt chills all over his body.He thought viciously, whoever sleeps on this kind of thing is really a pervert.

Liu Ji turned around and went out, went to the house where he lived and found a drink bottle, dug some strange substances into the bottle with a small spoon, thinking that he could find a place for testing later, or take pictures and put them on the Internet to have a look Can you find the result.Now that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers on the Internet, he doesn't believe that no one knows what it is.

After locking the door and returning to his own room, after such a toss, he was always very nervous, afraid of being in danger, and afraid of being discovered, which made him feel unprecedentedly tired.He carefully stuffed the drink bottle into the luggage, wrapped it in newspaper, and put it at the bottom, and fell asleep quickly in a drowsy state.

There was a wind blowing in the quiet old house, and it sounded like someone was whimpering.Liu Ji was woken up from his sleep, and he pricked up his ears, as if he heard someone calling in the yard, looking very miserable.He grabbed the electric baton by the bedside, calmed down, and quietly opened the door.

The moment he stepped out of the door, everything changed.

The yard disappeared and suddenly became a field.In the middle of the ground, there are many scarecrows densely planted. These scarecrows are fixed by wooden sticks, with loose hair, but they seem to be alive, their bodies are twisting slightly, and the scarecrows emit human-like screams from their mouths. The sounds gathered together, seemed to approach the eardrums, and passed into his brain.

Liu Ji covered his ears, and the electric baton fell to the ground.He looked down, and there was a field under his feet. Turning around, the house turned into a wilderness, and behind him was a group of scarecrows, who seemed to be struggling constantly, trying to get rid of the constraints of the sticks.Suddenly, the cry disappeared, Liu Ji let go, bent down, and picked up the electric baton.Looking up again, he found a huge face in front of him, with distorted facial features, and purple red blood flowing from the gap.

The scarecrows began to bleed blood, they waved their arms ferociously, the ground was already soaked in blood, Liu Ji felt his whole feet were soaked in blood, those scarecrows suddenly opened their hands like ghosts and floated up one by one, flying all over the sky, He rushed towards himself.

Standing up suddenly, Liu Jixing turned around and saw that he was still lying on the bed, only then did he realize that it was a nightmare.Through the paper window, the moonlight shines on the yard, the shadow of the big tree casts on the window, and the breeze blows, Liu Ji feels cool all over his body.

In the second half of the night, I couldn't fall asleep, so I could only toss and turn on the bed, thinking about what happened after I came to Beijing.Obviously, what grandpa said has come true, but before coming, grandpa told himself to be careful in everything, saying that in his destiny, he would encounter too many dangers.

Probably because of the oppressive surroundings after entering this weird house, plus the words of my grandfather, the unknown fate weighed heavily on my heart, so I had such a strange dream.For dreams, Liu Ji is not completely disbelieving.Grandpa said that dreams can sometimes represent a person's luck and future.

Chang Sheng!Yes, Chang Sheng.Liu Jimeng slapped his head, how could he forget him.Chang Sheng is a policeman, so give him these sallow things, maybe he can help find a place for testing.

In the early morning, Liu Ji took out the yellow things from his bag.He took the bottle and went out. Less than 100 meters away, he saw Guo Laosi walking around in the open space outside the house.

Liu Ji broke out in sweat, he was only thinking about finding the secret, but didn't think about being wary of this weird old man, if he came in at night, and he was so tired last night, I'm afraid he would inevitably fall into his trap.

Guo Lao Si also saw Liu Ji, and focused his eyes on the bottle in Liu Ji's hand. He walked over and stared at the bottle, Liu Ji took half a step back.Old Four Guo lost his voice and asked, "Where did you find this thing?"

"What?" Liu Ji blinked, trying to get something out of Mr. Guo.

Guo Laosi laughed, stared at Liu Ji like an old fox and said, "Boy, I didn't see it. I thought you were just here to make a living. Who knows, you are also a master on the road. I don't know." Brother, is he a mountain mover, a school lieutenant, or a local dialer?"

Liu Ji was taken aback, and Guo Lao Si sneered and said, "Huh, it's all Lord Mao, no one should eat the only portion. Don't tell me that these corpse wax was scraped from your body. I have been staring at this kiln for a long time. You have tender hair and shallow water. I can't figure out what's in this old kiln. The corpse wax feeds out big rice dumplings. You're a single stick of lard, so you won't even be able to get out of the kiln!"

After finishing speaking, Guo Laosi didn't bother, turned around and walked towards the construction site.The second monk Liu Jizhang couldn't figure it out, so he could only leave with the bottle awkwardly.

When I saw Chang Sheng, he was going to work.Before he had time to say hello, this guy snatched the bottle from Liu Ji's hand, looked at it for a long time, and frowned, "Shiwa?"

"Success, boy, you really know this thing." Liu Ji remembered what Guo Laosi said, and looked at Chang Sheng in amazement.

"I saw it when I was in the army. During the Yunyue border exercise, it was in an old pond in a mountainous area. I later learned that there is a custom where dead people are wrapped in mud. I have been walking in the mountains for five days, and I still haven't found the way out." Chang Sheng was caught in the memory, his eyes became complicated.

It was evening when the company walked to the pond.Because there were beasts and poisonous snakes in the mountains at night, the whole company lit a bonfire by the pond and decided to station here temporarily.When I was cooking, I found that there was no water. Someone suggested that the pond in front of me was a ready-made water source.

They fetched water, set up a marching stove, poured the water into the pot, and everyone noticed that there were some yellow, viscous substances floating on it. The blocks melted in the water.

After the rice was cooked, it was discovered that there was a thin layer of oil floating on it. When everyone was devouring it, a soldier from Guangdong shouted that he had just received the rice and found the layer of oil.He said that these oils are all human oil, and the drops of human oil are not round, but like a crescent moon.

Everyone looked into the bowl carefully, only to find that it was so.His experience comes from a book, and everyone does not fully believe it.However, the whole atmosphere is weird.No one ate that dinner again until they set up camp the next day, found a new water source, and washed the pots and bowls again and again.Some recruits didn't believe what the Guangdong soldiers said, so they secretly picked up a piece of something that was picked out and brought it out, and sent it to the military laboratory, only to know that it was really a human thing.These things are difficult to form, and such changes can only occur in the corpse in a sealed environment with thin air and dryness.

"Where did you find this thing?" Chang Sheng asked Liu Ji.

Liu Ji patted his thigh and said: "The old guy is right, the ancient tomb must be the ancient tomb!" Then he told Chang Sheng exactly what happened in the past few days.

"What? A broken jar is worth more than 1 million dollars? The old man has such valuable things and still has the idea of ​​an ancient house?" Chang Sheng could hardly believe his ears. When he calmed down, he looked at Liu Ji and asked, "Then you say, How much are those things in the old house worth?"

"Who can guess that."

"Could it be that the deceased in the case was killed because of this? Is this a gang of grave robbers?" Chang Sheng frowned and muttered to himself.

Liu Ji changed his mind. When he told Chang Sheng everything just now, he had made up his mind that he would pull Chang Sheng over no matter what he said. This guy had been a soldier before, and his fighting power was stronger than himself. What if Guo Lao Si did something , can also resist one or two.Liu Ji made up his mind that as long as he finds this ancient tomb, all the secrets will be solved, and his destiny will be fulfilled.

"What do you think?" Liu Ji asked Chang Sheng.

Chang Sheng laughed loudly, stood up and said, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch a tiger's cub. This is what I do, and I have to chase after clues. But you, a commoner, also want to participate in this?"

"Exploration, curiosity." Liu Ji gave Chang Sheng an angry look, "Even if we can't get the things in the tomb at that time, we can still count as having this experience."

Chang Sheng patted Liu Ji's shoulder hard, causing him to grin his teeth, "It's time to bait, you contact that old Guo, we're ready to do it!"

Cloudy, no light in the sky.

Chang Sheng pushed the door open and entered the house, and stuck the alloy bar in his hand on the door latch, which was explained by Liu Ji.

"No one." Chang Sheng nodded to Liu Ji.

After rectifying the playboys, Chang Sheng followed Liu Ji back to the house.It was the first time to do this, and the two of them didn't know what to prepare, so they went to an outdoor sports store with the common adventure equipment in the movie.Chang Sheng also brought the saber that caused a disturbance when he retired.

After the two discussed it last time, Liu Ji found Guo Lao Si.Guo Laosi has been very excited since seeing the corpse wax, and he is sure that there is a big kiln here.

Yaozi is a slang word for tomb robbers, which refers to mausoleums.The reason for the formation of corpse wax is that the cemetery should be well sealed and almost completely isolated from the air, so that the fat in the corpse will not be corrupted and saponified into corpse wax.Tombs whose craftsmanship can reach this level, judging from the manpower, material resources and design used, are not within the reach of ordinary people, county officials and state officials. According to the current words, at least the central cadres can be found. A burial of this size.

"The house was built in the early Ming Dynasty. If it is an ancient tomb, it is impossible not to dig it out when building the house. Therefore, it is judged that this cemetery should also be a tomb in the early Ming Dynasty. It may be the tomb of the owner of the house." Guo Laosi came from the house. Stepped out, carrying a metal stick in his hand.The head of the stick is pointed, and there are two small holes the size of soybean grains in it.
