Explore Changbai Mountain

Chapter 1 The Past 1
In the late autumn of 1927, a certain village in Shandong.

late at night.In an adobe house at the easternmost end of the village, Li Ergou put on a cotton coat and ran to the hut at the back of the house for convenience, trembling.

As the sound of "squeaking" stopped, Li Ergou shivered, not sure if it was because the weather was too cold or he was urinating.

Li Ergou didn't run back to the house immediately after finishing the convenience, but turned his ears to the direction of a hill a few miles away from the east of the village, and listened carefully.

Apart from the sound of the wind, there seemed to be no other sounds.Li Ergou shook his head. Today, the sound of "chacha...chacha...chacha..." that he heard a few nights ago did not come from the direction of the hill.

Li Ergou pricked up his ears and listened for a while, when a gust of cold wind blew, he immediately wrapped up his cotton coat and ran into the house quickly.

"At home, at home." Li Ergou shook his wife who was sleeping on the kang.

"You dead ghost, what's the matter, you're going to die if you don't sleep in the middle of the night!"

"The sound is gone today. It's been going on for several days. It was wiped away in the middle of the night. Why is it gone today? Do you think there are ghosts in the mountains?"

"Trouble your old mother, go to bed quickly, even if the haunted ghost is blocked by the mountain god. What kind of onion are you, the trouble will not be on your head. Besides, the sound is gone, even if it is troubled, it will be over. Don't worry about it every day. Eating salty radishes makes you worry less. In the middle of the night, people will not be able to sleep." Li Ergou was very upset when he was woken up in the middle of the night at home, and he gave Li Ergou a scolding.

Li Ergou thought for a while, and felt that what his wife said made sense, so he covered the cotton-padded jacket on the quilt, got into the bed and squeezed towards his wife.

"You damn ghost, why is your body so cold?"

"I'm freezing to death, please warm me up..."

"devil……"

At this time, he was in a ditch on the mountain a few miles away from Li Ergou's house.A teenage boy was lying on the edge of the ditch, looking around, and from time to time, with the corner of his eye, he glanced at a robbery hole more than two feet wide in the ditch.

In the tomb deep in the robbery cave.

"Father, there's something wrong with this Leizi!" A man in his twenties said to a middle-aged man with a little white hair on his temples.

At this time, the middle-aged man was looking at the eight sarcophagi surrounded by a circle in the middle of the tomb, frowning.Something is wrong with this tomb!

This tomb completely overturned all the concepts of these two people about the tomb.If there were no eight sarcophagi, this place would be a stone cave.In other words, here is a stone cave with eight sarcophagi.

The middle-aged man walked around this small "stone cave" with a small torch.There is nothing but the stone wall. The stone wall is made of simply trimmed stones. The size and shape of the stones are different, but the stone wall is not rough. The gaps were filled with a waterproof mixture of lime and yellow mud. "No wonder it was so hard to dig in yesterday." The middle-aged man thought to himself.

The middle-aged man looked up again at the top of the tomb. The stone wall was more than two meters above the ground and was built into a large vault. It seemed that the caulking compound had the function of bonding. The circular stone pillar is held up. There is no carving on the stone pillar, but the surface is very smooth. The stone pillar gives people the feeling that it is specially used to support the vault, and has no other use.

The stone pillars were stuck on the ground made of stone bricks.The ground is relatively flat, but the ground is not paved with stones like the curtain wall, but real stone bricks.The stone bricks are built vertically, and the stone bricks are spread around the stone pillar in the middle. Because the stone bricks are rectangular, and the stone pillars are round, so square stone bricks are used to surround a pillar to form a On a circular ground, there are many gaps between stone bricks.Repaired stone bricks are laid in the middle of the larger gaps, and the smaller gaps are left there.

The middle-aged man put his fingers into the gaps between the stone bricks and touched them. The gaps between the stone bricks were not filled with the same mixture as the gaps between the stones of the curtain wall, and the gaps were deep, at least deeper than The length of the fingers he inserted was deep.This made the middle-aged man feel very puzzled.

The whole ground feels very inconsistent with the wall, and I don’t know how the owner of the tomb or the family members of the owner of the tomb agreed to the craftsmen’s repair.

Combined with the topography outside, the middle-aged man judged that the tomb was built with stones in a depression, and then covered the top and surrounding of the stone chamber with soil, the height of which was exactly the same as that of the tomb. The depression was filled up to hide the tomb.

But after all, it is the soil that was built later. No matter how solid the soil is rammed, it cannot compare with the solidity of the surrounding soil that has been deposited for many years. Therefore, the soil around the top of the tomb was washed away by the rain for many years. Quite a lot, the place where the new soil and the old soil combined around the tomb was washed into two soil ditches, so this tomb was discovered by their group of tomb robbers.

After seeing the whole picture of the tomb, the middle-aged man turned his attention to the rightful owner of the tomb.The eight sarcophagi are arranged at equal distances around the stone pillar in the middle of the tomb. The sarcophagus is arranged in a chrysanthemum shape around the stone pillar in the middle.

The eight coffins looked exactly the same from the outside, and they had no distinctive features. Although they were sarcophagi, there was no decorative pattern on them.I don't know what kind of stone the sarcophagus was carved from. It is white all over and looks abnormally thick.

"It's really strange. My second child, I have been digging mines since I debuted in my twenties, and it has been almost 30 years since I started digging mines. It ranges from the royal family's mines to the common people's earth mines, big and small. I’ve spent eight hundred of those thunderbolts, and I’ve never seen anything like this before!” The middle-aged man looked at the eight sarcophagi with puzzled eyes.

"Father, I think this thunder is evil, why don't we take it out? In a few days, Marshal Zhang's team will be dispatched, and we are about to go home. There is nothing wrong with it at this time." .”

"You know what a fart, it's not worth it to pay for his old Zhang's family every day. Whoever we do is not doing it for our own family. What good can it do for Zhang Zuolin? Last time the third child got a discount Rehe, his old Zhang family is really good, send an adjutant to stuff five hundred oceans and forget about it, five hundred Yuan Datou will be exchanged for your third brother's life!"

"The military expenses that we have earned from thunderstorms over the years have been exchanged for no less than 2000 million silver dollars, so this is so good? If it weren't because your mother and your sister are in their hands, who would work for outsiders? I Seeing that the Feng army is at the end of its strength, if this one is beaten back out of the pass, I don’t know if it will come back again, it’s up to you and me to make a fortune, and when we were about to leave, we found this thunder, how can we do it if we don’t hurry up.”

"Besides, we are usually searched inside and outside the barracks. No matter where we go, there is a platoon of people following us. If they are not busy withdrawing troops recently, those people are busy grabbing their own things and can't take care of us. If you succeed in taking it back, it will become theirs.”

(In the slang of bandits in Northeast China, Leizi: tomb. Gai Leizi: Tomb robbery. Eat smelly: Tomb robbers, "eat" means what to eat, because the tomb is full of corpses, so people who live by robbery are called It stinks.)
"Father, what do you mean by putting eight sarcophagi here? Is it true that only one is real, and the others are all fake? The mechanism is activated when the fake coffin is staggered? This place doesn't look like there is a mechanism?"

"Eight sarcophagi, seven false and one true? Seven false and one true..." The middle-aged man kept mumbling, "Seven? White sarcophagus? White... seven..." The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly appeared A bright light. "Seven Wars Guardian Spirit? This is actually the Seven Wars Guardian Spirit!"

As soon as the words Qishang Guardian came out of the mouth of the middle-aged man, the young man's eyes widened all of a sudden, "Seven Guardians, no way, Dad, in such a crappy place, we can meet the legendary Qishang guardian spirit? If it is true, it will be troublesome."

"It shouldn't be wrong. Seven is the number of gold, and white is also the color of gold in the five elements. The gold lord kills, these eight coffins are the seven guardian spirits, the seven coffins plus the real sarcophagus of the tomb owner. No wonder We dug the robbery hole so smoothly, there was no obstacle at all. No wonder this tomb is so strange, there is no anti-theft measure at all, hmph, with the seven guardian spirits, all other organs and secret passages are just decorations. Take off your pants and fart. This time, I really met an expert. I have only read about this seven-shang spirit protection formation in books, but unfortunately I don’t know how to crack it. Let me study it for a while. If I make a mistake and release the spirits, we men No one can escape!"

"Father, I have also heard that during this time, the seven spirits form one body. If one of the coffins containing the spirits is misplaced, another spirit will be released. Needless to say, the spirits are powerful, and if you don't immediately Kill one person and put it in the coffin to replace the original War Spirit, and the other six will wake up together. At that time, the seven spirits will come out together, even if Zhang Tianshi is alive, they may not be able to stop it. If not, let's go back and study for two days. Find a way to break the formation and come back, dad, it’s not worth your life!"; the second child couldn't help becoming anxious after knowing that these sarcophagi were indeed the guardian spirits of Qishang.

"Fart, if Zhang Tianshi is alive, he won't even need his toes to kill these spirits. Hey! The things of our ancestors are not as good as one generation after another."

The middle-aged man smacked his teeth, then shook his head and said, "Time is running out. We have been digging this pipe (robbed hole) for four days, and we only dug it through yesterday. After a day of ventilation, we only came in today. It is far from the bottom of the mountain." The village is too close, and some villagers should have heard us pass the pipe (digging the robbery hole). And yesterday I heard from those jumpers (soldiers) that I don’t know whose army has fought so far. It's fifty miles away, and it will be occupied by them in a day or two, today is our last chance."

"Father, let's go, this is a really terrible deal, it's really not worth it!" The second child has persuaded the middle-aged man to leave for the third time today, but the middle-aged man is still unmoved.

"Second brother, you go into the pipe. In case I break it later, don't hesitate, take the fifth child and run quickly. The upper body of Shang Ling is not a joke. It's a small matter for me, don't call us After the family is extinct. If it weren't for this era of war and chaos, we men would have been rich a long time ago by means of our men. This is a rare opportunity. The Qishang Spiritual Array can be displayed. It must be the treasure in the sarcophagus of the Lord. It must be a shocking thing, and it is enough for our family to live comfortably for two lifetimes. It is worthwhile to use my life to fight for the next two generations of our family."

"Father!" The second child yelled unwillingly, "If you really have something good or bad, what will you do with your mother and us?"

"If I break it, the old Zhang family won't make things difficult for you anymore. You can take your mother to find a remote ravine, set up a farm, and be a farmer for a lifetime in peace. I see it through, the tip of the knife is rolling up to wealth and honor, and I don’t have the comfort of living in peace and security. Over the years, my body has already entered my body, and the cough has become more and more severe recently. I’m afraid I won’t last a few years. Use me I'll fight this life for you, you won't lose anything if you lose, and you'll make a lot of money if you win. That's it. You go to the pipe and wait to pick up the plate. Remember, if something goes wrong, take the fifth child and hurry up. Run, and don't come back again. Also, the descendants of our family are determined not to be stinky anymore." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said.

The second child saw that his father had made up his mind, and knew that he could not persuade him anymore, so he stuck the torch in his hand into the gap in the wall next to the robbery cave, and climbed into the robbery cave one meter above the ground of the tomb.
