"Zhuyoushu?"
Wang Haichuan, who was standing next to him, was obviously surprised when he heard Chen Yibai mutter these three words with a serious expression.
As an archaeological expert and professor, he had certainly heard of "Zhuyoushu", but he had only heard of it.
Zhuyoushu originated in ancient times. The most widely explained explanation is that it is a kind of witchcraft that uses spells to treat diseases.
Another explanation is that people in ancient times lacked scientific knowledge about the causes of diseases and believed that diseases were caused by ghosts and evil spirits, so they used spells and sacrifices to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases, praying for the protection of gods. This kind of magic is Zhuyoushu.
"But what does this have to do with Zhuyoushu?"
Wang Haichuan was very puzzled and asked Chen Yibai in a tentative tone.
Chen Yibai turned his head and glanced at Wang Haichuan.
Since Wang Haichuan asked this, it means that the "Zhuyoushu" he knew was all from Baidu Encyclopedia.
Treating diseases is just one of the Zhuyoushu.
The most powerful part of Zhuyou is the various forbidden techniques and witchcraft, including prayer, analogy, contact, curse, talisman, taboo and divination.
To explain it simply and roughly, Zhuyou is a kind of ancient witchcraft with a wide range and mystery, which can cure diseases, summon spirits, exorcise evil spirits, cast curses, and even the mysterious Zhuyou spell can exorcise ghosts and slaves.
The Banshan Taoist, one of the four major tomb robbers, should be familiar to everyone.
The Banshan Taoist clan is very miserable, carrying the evil curse that the clan members cannot live to 60 years old, so they rob tombs for generations without fame or money, just to remove the curse.
It is said that the evil curse on the Banshan Taoist clan is the ancient Zhuyou technique!
This shows the mystery and horror of this ancient Zhuyou technique.
Since the emergence of tomb robbery in the Spring and Autumn Period, all tomb robbers, no matter how powerful they are, are most afraid of not the ingenious and lewd mechanisms, let alone zongzi, but the mysterious ancient Zhuyou technique.
Originally, Chen Yibai suspected that the Guixu hexagram hinted that King Kang was conferred the title of immortal, which sounded too mythical. Could it be related to the mysterious Zhuyou technique?
Although he had such doubts in his heart, Chen Yibai really didn't want to see Zhuyou technique appear in the ancient tomb.
Because the ancient Zhuyou technique was very mysterious, as long as Zhuyou technique appeared in the ancient tomb, it was equivalent to everything being possible!
As a result, what you feared came true, and you really saw Zhuyou technique here!
At that time, there were people in the Kang Dynasty who knew Zhuyou technique, and they also used Zhuyou technique in this tomb!
This makes the level of this tomb of King Kang much higher... much higher...
"Mr. Chen, can you understand what the banners and talismans in this hall mean?"
Yan Wanlei saw that Chen Yibai's expression was a little strange, and asked curiously.
Chen Yibai nodded: "The talisman is the Five Thunder Talisman of Zhuyou, also known as the Five Thunder Command Talisman, which can command wind, rain and thunder. This kind of Five Thunder Talisman can be seen in rain-praying sacrifices, but it can not only command wind, rain and thunder..."
Halfway through his words, Chen Yibai took the flashlight from Yan Wanlei and shone it on the various banners hanging in the hall, saying: "These banners are painted with Zhuyou secret characters. I can't understand them, but I know this..."
The topic changed again, and Chen Yibai shone the flashlight beam directly on the huge black canopy umbrella hanging in the center of the front hall!
The canopy umbrella is also called the yellow Luo umbrella. It is the umbrella that the eunuchs hold beside the emperor when he travels. It is cylindrical like a treasure cover, mostly yellow, and embroidered with dragons and phoenixes.
This kind of fan can also be seen in Taoist temples. It is also mostly yellow, but it is embroidered with some meaningful patterns. It is also called the Fu Shou Huang Luo umbrella.
The one hanging in the center of the hall is black, with densely packed Zhuyou secret characters painted on it with white paint. The most special and creepy thing is that on this black canopy umbrella, there is also a string of human skulls, each skull is only as big as a fist! It looks like an unborn baby, taken out of the belly.
"This is not a yellow umbrella, but a banner! It is a soul-guiding banner!"
Chen Yibai's eyes are firm.
No wonder the yin energy in this hall is so heavy and terrifying, because of this soul-guiding banner.
The soul-guiding banner can attract ghosts, and it is painted with Zhuyou secret characters, so this is also one of the forbidden techniques of Zhuyou, which can attract ghosts and souls.
The souls attracted must be the ghosts of the slaves outside who were used as sacrifices, so the yin energy gathered here.
At this moment, Wang Haichuan felt a little numb. He was just doing an ancient study and historical academic research. How did it get to the point of Zhuyou and the soul-guiding banner? He felt a little unsure.
If he continued to study, I was afraid that what I said before would come true, and I would really die here!
"Then shall we go in?"
Yan Wanlei did not ask what the soul-guiding banner was, because the name did not sound like a serious thing anyway, but asked whether we could go in.
From this sentence, it can be heard that Yan Wanlei wanted to back out.
This was mainly because of the expression on Chen Yibai's face. Since he mentioned the art of incantation, he was obviously not as calm as before.
"How about... let's suspend this archaeological research for now, since we can't run away from this place anyway, and we have all been here once. Let's go back and make full preparations before we come again?"
One of the archaeological experts raised an opinion, but from his tone, there would definitely not be a next time, even if he quit his job without a plan.
When this opinion was raised, many people nodded silently in agreement.
But Chen Yibai shook his head and laughed, saying, "Do you think this is a hotel or an escape room? You come here whenever you want, and when you're done, you turn around and leave?"
"Why, we can't go back?"
When Wang Haichuan heard what Chen Yibai said, he felt cold all over.
At the same time, he turned back and thought that the big hole he had just fallen from was at least several dozen meters high. It would be absolutely impossible to return the same way.
If there were no other exits here, he might be trapped here.
"Chen... Captain Chen, please don't tell me that this is an archaeological excavation that can only go up and not back! We want to bring the results of archaeological research up there, not down there!"
Yang Qingyun immediately said something, and his eyes began to turn red with anxiety.
Chen Yibai shook his head and said solemnly, "I've said it just now. If you want to go back after having enough fun, it's impossible! If you want to get out, you can only understand the tomb of King Kang thoroughly before you can find the exit, which can also be understood as passing the customs!"
After hearing what Chen Yibai said, everyone frowned.
This means that even if you don't want to enter the hall in front of you, you can't enter it.
There is still a chance to move forward.
If you retreat, you will die!
"Okay, due to the special situation, let's temporarily change the team formation. I'll go in first, and you all wait at the door!"
As he spoke, Chen Yibai stepped into the hall alone, with a heroic spirit.
In fact, Chen Yibai was simply afraid of encountering danger and that the archaeological team would be dragged down.
After entering the hall, the first thing Chen Yibai was wary of was the 'person' standing behind the banner, pretending to be a ghost.
At the same time, after entering the hall, Chen Yibai immediately took a flashlight and shone it around. He found that there were many "people" standing behind the banners in the hall. Their bodies were all blocked by the banners, with only the lower legs wrapped in copper armor showing below. They stood one on the left and one on the right. The team was very chaotic and there seemed to be no pattern.
It was precisely this irregularity that made Chen Yibai feel that this was actually a battle formation!
"Woo... Moo..."
That is, Chen Yibai's brain CPU was running fast, analyzing what kind of battle formation this was.
Suddenly!
The sound of chanting spells suddenly came from somewhere in the hall!
This spell felt like it came from a gloomy voice, extremely clear, and it echoed in the hall like a ghost, adding a bit of mystery to the gloomy atmosphere. Chen Yibai was terrified when he heard it, and he gritted his teeth and cursed: "Dou Lei Lao Mu Hai, is this the witch spell of the ancient Zhuyou technique?"
