Go Crazy! You Call Me the Ultimate?

These two paintings confirmed their previous speculation. Dixian Village is divided into upper and lower floors. The upper part is the yang house, and the lower part is the yin house.

Upon hearing this, Wang Kaixuan quickly rolled up the two paintings and put them away.

Professor Sun couldn't help being anxious when he saw it.

"Didn't you already take one? Why are you so greedy, you want to take them all away!"

Wang Kaixuan waved his hand and said seriously.

"You're wrong this time, I'm not selling it for money."

"These two paintings are detailed maps of Dixian Village. With a map, you won't get lost, and you can avoid traps. It's much more valuable than gold and silver treasures!"

Only then did Professor Sun heave a sigh of relief, this guy finally spoke human words once.

Everyone looked at the third painting, but saw that the content of this painting was a bit strange.

The painting shows a deep ravine with a steep and steep terrain, and some bronze sacrificial utensils seem to be buried in the exposed soil layer.

There is another group of people with torches, lined up in a neat team, walking from the steep cliff to the ground at the bottom of the ravine. The team is mighty and mighty.

Those people in the team, men, women, old and young, all had weird expressions, and the atmosphere was weird. I didn't know what they were doing.

In the lower right corner of this painting, there are five words "Picture of Walking at Night by Holding Candles", but it has not been signed.

After Yaomei looked at it, she suddenly pointed to the ancient painting and said.

"Look at the mountains around this gully, isn't it the corpse mountain!"

As she said, the mountains in the painting are the underground mountains of corpses.

The shape of Zombie Mountain is like a headless giant lying on his back in a coffin. The location of Dixian Village is in the heart of the giant.

And the gully in the painting is at the lower abdomen of the giant, as if a knife had been slashed on the stomach, creating a huge wound.

Wang Kaixuan nodded.

"It's true what you said, but why don't these people stay in the Earth Immortal Village, what are they doing in the giant's stomach?"

Logically speaking, these people in the painting should be immortal cultivators who followed Feng Shigu, but they should stay in Dixian Village, why would they go to that kind of place?

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, puzzled.

After Lin Shuangyue glanced at it, she said softly.

"The location of this wound is the dantian of the lower abdomen. The dantian is the place where the inner alchemy is formed. Maybe it has something to do with the inner alchemy of the corpse fairy."

Ji Changsheng nodded approvingly, without speaking, but turned his gaze to the last painting.

This last painting is titled "Viewing Mountains and Encountering Immortals".

Since ancient times, there have been innumerable ancient paintings with the picture of "so and so meeting an immortal", all of which are ancient people's longing for searching for real immortals.

And this "Viewing the Mountain and Encountering Immortals" not only does not have a trace of fairy spirit, but has a disturbing and weird feeling!

The scene in the painting is the main chamber of the ancient tomb of King Wuling. In the tomb passage outside, there are a group of people in costumes carrying various artifacts. It seems that they are a group of tomb robbers.

In the tomb, there are horrifying and weird scenes.

I saw six bloody corpses lying next to an opened stone coffin. The chests of these corpses were bloody and bloody, and a big hole had been opened, which was horrible.

Beside the stone coffin, stood a tall man with a sword in his hand, glaring into the coffin.

This person has a majestic figure, a majestic appearance, a cold light in his eyes, and the temperament of a peerless master.

This person should be Feng Shigu who took the lead in robbing the ancient tomb of King Wuling!

Inside the coffin, there was a big rice dumpling sitting up!

That Zongzi was unusually tall, half sitting in the coffin, he was actually taller than Feng Shigu who was standing up!

Zongzi's costume is gorgeous and elegant, but he wears a golden pig's head mask on his head. He should be the owner of the ancient tomb - King Wuling.

King Wuling's hands were covered with blood, the nails were half a foot long, and they shone with a piercing cold light.

Obviously, those people lying on the ground died under his sharp claws!

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help shouting after seeing it.

"What is Encountering Immortals, this is clearly a encounter with a big rice dumpling! So many people have died, and they still have the mind to move the torch, and they are more greedy than Lao Tzu!"

That's what's weird about this painting.

It's not surprising that King Wuling's corpse would turn into zongzi, because this corpse-shaped mountain was originally a place to raise corpses, and it would be strange to bury it in such a place without making zongzi.

But what the Feng family met in the painting was obviously a big rice dumpling, why the name of this painting is called Yuxiantu, which has nothing to do with the legendary elegant fairy.

Professor Sun explained solemnly.

"Wuling King should be the corpse fairy that Feng Shigu discovered, and the picture of encountering an immortal refers to encountering a corpse fairy!"

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help frowning and said.

"This weird thing is really a fairy? Are you sure it's not a monster?"

Professor Sun shrugged helplessly and said.

"In ancient times, there was a saying that corpses turned into immortals. The ancient people's views on corpses are completely different from those of modern people. It is difficult for us to understand."

Hu Bayi pointed to the four paintings and said.

"The first two are the design drawings of Dixian Village. I don't know what the third one means. The fourth one is explained according to what you said."

"But what is the meaning of connecting these four paintings together?"

There seems to be no connection between these four paintings. If there is a connection, there must be other paintings.

After discussing with everyone, they searched again on the second floor, but found nothing.

Ji Changsheng looked up and said slowly.

"To unlock these secrets, you have to go up and take a look."

After all, go straight to the top floor.

Everyone suddenly remembered the swaying figure under the light, and couldn't help getting nervous, and took out their loaded weapons one after another.

Ji Changsheng said that there are no living people here, so the figure on the top floor is most likely a big rice dumpling!

When people cautiously followed Ji Changsheng to the third floor and looked around, they couldn't help being stunned.

The scene on the third floor was even weirder than imagined!

Chapter 740 There is no silver 300 taels here

After reaching the third floor, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

The ceiling of the hall is covered with luminous ore, and the light emitted by the ore is brighter than that of the two floors below, comparable to fluorescent lamps.

The light was originally soft white, but all the surrounding windows were covered with a layer of yellow paper, and the white light reflected on the yellow paper turned into an orange color similar to firelight from the outside.

In front of the window facing the gate, a rope protruded from the ceiling, and a paper figure was hung from it.

The paper figurines are life-size, wearing ancient costumes, with white faces and red cheeks, and a very strange grin with bared teeth.

There seems to be an mechanism on the rope, pulling the paper figurine back and forth.

The paper figurine was floating in the air, at first glance it looked like a hideous hanged ghost.

Among the crowd, Yaomei was the least courageous, she almost cried out, and hurriedly hid behind Lin Shuangyue.

Wang Kaixuan covered his heart and cursed.

"Which wicked ghost did this, pretending to be a ghost, it scared me so much!"

Professor Sun was not afraid at all. He stepped forward to take a closer look, and his expression changed immediately.

"This is a kind of Southwest magic, Hanging Soul!"

This kind of sorcery spread in the southwestern area of ​​Hubei, and originated from the ancient witchcraft in the pre-Qin period, similar to spiritualism.

The Ba people believe that the body is the home of the soul. At first, they used the corpse to summon the soul, that is, to use the corpse to revive the soul, or ask the ghost for good or bad luck, or communicate with dead relatives and friends.

Later, this kind of witchcraft was banned by the imperial court, but it was secretly passed down among the people, but it was changed to use paper figurines to summon souls.

Upon hearing this, Wang Kaixuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with disdain.

"Isn't it just pretending to be a ghost? I thought this Feng Shigu was so capable, but it turned out that he was just a charlatan."

Professor Sun shook his head seriously.

"This kind of sorcery has been passed down to the present. If it is just a trick of the rivers and lakes, how can it be passed down for thousands of years?"

When he was a teaching assistant in Wushan, he had personally seen local witches perform this kind of witchcraft. As a knowledgeable professor of archeology, he could not see any flaws, so he has always been in awe of this ancient witchcraft. heart of.

Wang Kaixuan saw the solemnity of what he said, so he couldn't help but leaned forward to take a closer look, and his expression changed accordingly.

Although the facial features of the paper figurine were drawn with a brush, the eyes were vivid and the expression was lifelike.

Looking at the paper figurine up close, it feels like being stared at by a living person!

"This paper figurine is really weird, it makes me feel scared."

"I set it on fire!"

After speaking, he took out the lighter from his backpack and started to do it.

Professor Sun hurriedly stopped him.

"Don't be reckless, this thing can't be burned, if it is burned, it will be bad luck and cause big trouble!"

When he was a teaching assistant in Wushan, he had a good relationship with the local people, and the villagers would invite him to attend their weddings and funerals.

Once, he witnessed a weird soul-hanging ceremony with his own eyes.

After the ceremony, the witch told the master that the paper figurine must be hung behind the gate of the main room, and after 49 days, the incense table and three animals should be placed, and the paper dolls could be sent away after worshiping and praying.

During this period, the paper figurine must not be touched, otherwise disasters may strike.

A stupefied young man stole the paper figurine at night, intending to sell it at a candle shop in the city.

Early the next morning, before the young man had time to go to the city, the witch came to the door. In desperation, he burned the paper figurine in the latrine, and then denied it.

The witch couldn't help him, and said before leaving: "It's a pity that you are young, you should eat something good these two days." After finishing speaking, she left.

The young man thought the witch was trying to scare him, so he didn't take it to heart.
