Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Professor Sun said: "Now is not the time to talk nonsense and be happy. How could there be a tape recorder in the ancient tomb?" The fat man took the opportunity to say: "This is Comrade Hu Bayi's original fantasy arising from lack of knowledge, superstition, and wishful thinking. Bizarre theories are simply indescribable childish imagination, and anyone who believes them is a complete lunatic."

I said, why can't there be a "telephone recorder" in the ancient tomb? When I was in the engineering corps, I heard a geological and mining expert say that there is a special rock formation in a cave in the mountains. This kind of rock formation contains "iron tetroxide" or "iron tetroxide". The magnetic field it generates, It can become a tape recorder in nature. On a sunny day, you can hear the thunder rolling in the valley. This phenomenon is responsible. I guess there may be a "clear weapon" made of this special material hidden in the coffin.

The fat man didn't know whether what I said was true or not. He was speechless for a moment and couldn't find the words to refute. He just said: "If there is such an ancient tape recorder, it would be worth my money..."

I saw that the woman in the coffin refused to listen to her cries, which really made me feel uncomfortable, so I called the fat man to come forward and wanted to pull out the "life cap" to see what happened. We lit a candle and were about to do it, but when we got closer After listening carefully, I discovered that the strange sound came not from the coffin, but from deep within the tomb bricks under the coffin.

As soon as the red lacquer coffin was moved away, the misty "ghost sound" stopped immediately. The empty ghost voice seemed to come from the wind and then go with the wind, leaving no trace in the air. Fatty and I lay on the ground and listened. For a long time, I still couldn't find the source. The tomb bricks were thick and solid. Even after I pried open a few pieces and looked through them, I found that there was only mud soaked in water underground.

Shirley Yang said: "Lao Hu, please stop being busy. That ghost sound comes and goes suddenly. It's very unusual. I don't think it's a sound that exists in a special rock formation. It's better to find the Dixian Village ancient tomb first."

Professor Sun also said: "This is reasonable. It is better to do less than to do more. The underground palace of this ancient tomb has been stolen for hundreds of years, and now nothing is left. I don't know how much it will take to find Dixian Village." Strength, by the way... What words were engraved on the bottom of the burial coffin? Is it the poem "Guan Shan Zhi Mi Fu"? "

Earth Immortal Feng Shigu considers himself an enlightened immortal, so his tomb is different from ordinary people. Ordinary tombs are designed to be permanently sealed so that outsiders can never see the things in the tomb. But Feng Shigu’s Earth Immortal The tomb is a place where all sentient beings can achieve enlightenment. He once left an article "Guanshan Zhimi Fu". In addition to the descendants of the Feng family, believers who are dedicated to seeking immortality can also follow the guidance to enter the ancient tomb. Outsiders who do not know the details If you want to enter the tomb and steal the treasure, it will be difficult to reach the sky.

Judging from the various encounters in "Coffin Gorge", of the "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" we have, only the part that Captain Feng personally told Master Sun Jiu was true, while the rest of what we saw was half true and half false, often They are all traps that lead people to a dead end, so I once thought that since I couldn't judge whether the "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" was true or false, it was better to rely on my own experience and not be misled by those pretentious tips.

But after using the "Guanshan Magic Pen" to draw the tomb door, we realized that our past experience and insights basically had no effect in the "Dixian Village Ancient Tomb". No wonder the leaders who moved mountains and unloaded ridges were all It was said that "even the gods could not guess what Taibao Guanshan did in the Ming Dynasty", but now I want to say: "Only a madman can understand the things Taibao Guanshan did in the Ming Dynasty."

At this moment, we entered the empty "Yishan King Guangdeok Tomb". Although the tomb was empty, those inexplicable things appeared in endlessly. Our equipment and energy did not allow us to blindly search the entire underground palace, "Guixu Gua" "Mirror" seems to be able to be used once or twice, but once the sea air in the mirror dissipates, I have no way out. Now, I have to refocus on the mystery of "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" middle.

I mentioned this idea to everyone, and Shirley Yang, Professor Sun and others all nodded in agreement, but the premise was that the inscribed writing on the bottom of the red lacquer coffin was the real "Guanshan Zhimi Fu", and everyone worked together to turn the coffin over. Wipe away the mud and water from the bottom of the coffin and carefully identify the writings.

At first glance, the two lacquer coffins are exactly the same, with words engraved on the bottom: "The woman is unknown, she was buried and hidden; in the tomb in the south, the wall is illuminated and the immortal descends; when the corpse is candled and the lamp is turned off, the ghost's voice is confusing."

The lacquered coffins of the Ming Dynasty were all buried in mass graves in the form of "pressing and hiding". Only seven or eight such coffins have been discovered by us. The burial system should be one of "captives, prisoners, slaves" Human bones, but I seemed to have never heard what a "wunu" was, so I said to Professor Sun: "Master Jiu, you are an old man. We dare not talk nonsense in front of you, but we know that this so-called "wunu" Who is this woman? Are these words on the bottom of the coffin the poem "Guan Shan Zhi Mi"?"

Although Sun Jiuye was narrow-minded and obsessed with "false fame" to the point of being pathological, he studied the Dragon Bone Book. Not only did he read through the mountains and seas of historical materials, he also used the opportunity of collecting oracle bones to go deep into the mountainous countryside and work in the fields. I have picked up countless "tongue leakers" on the ground, but when it comes to serious discussion of miscellaneous knowledge, I really don't see anyone who can compare with him.

As expected, Professor Sun knew the origin of "Wu Nu". He said that in the Central Plains area, it was popular in the old days to invite gods to descend on the immortals. The immortals who descended were of all kinds, such as ji fairies and fox fairies. Ninety-nine percent of them were magic sticks. It's a myth, designed to deceive foolish men and women, but there are so many people who believe it.

Many years ago, when Professor Sun was young, he had an encounter with him. At that time, there was a severe drought before liberation. There was an old man from Shaanxi who claimed that he could ask the Dragon King to get him. When the rain fell, in order to convince the people that he was really capable of inviting the Dragon King of the East China Sea, he swallowed talismans and recited mantras. After a while, he rolled his eyes and foamed at the mouth. He muttered something, claiming that he was the Dragon King of the East China Sea, Ao Guang. When anyone asked him something, he always answered fluently. , for a time believers gathered and rushed to kneel down and worship.

At that time, Professor Sun saw it all, and he couldn't help but not believe it at first, but then he thought about it and it didn't feel right. What's wrong? The Dragon King's accent is wrong. He speaks Shaanxi dialect. How could the Dragon King of the East China Sea speak Shaanxi dialect? It must be that the magician doesn't speak "mandarin". Although he pretends to be serious, he can't change the local accent he brought from his hometown.

Later, I saw many tricks similar to inviting gods, but Professor Sun never believed it again. In all things in the world, he was most afraid of being looked down upon by others, so he said that the authorities are confused and the onlookers are clear. It was not until after the liberation that he engaged in the research of ancient characters and went deep into the folk. I had many opportunities to collect and organize cultural relics, and then I heard that the custom of inviting gods to descend from the gods was passed down from "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty".

It is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a beloved concubine die, which made him want to eat and drink. Some "foreigners" said that they could invite the concubine from the underworld to meet him, so they set up a white tent, put up lights and candles behind the tent, and invited Emperor Wu to sit there. Among them, not long after, the figure of the concubine appeared on the white curtain, her voice and smile were the same as before. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed and made a deal with the sorcerer. This was the origin of inviting immortals to come to the world, and later evolved into lantern shadow play, with performers Most of them are good at "ventriloquism" and can "sing out eternal events in one breath and control millions of soldiers with both hands." However, there are also magicians who use this method to fool the people and defraud them of their wealth.

Therefore, the matter of "descending immortals" has a history of more than 2,000 years in China. Some things in the world are true and some are false. In addition to magic sticks, people often say that there are some supernatural manifestations. Yes, there is no room for disbelief. If you want to invite a true immortal, you must have an artifact to guide the saint. The so-called "wunu" is a female corpse, but it is not an ordinary female corpse. She was a "master's wife" who specialized in being possessed by immortals during her lifetime. This kind of Because women are often possessed by "fairies, demons, ghosts, and charms", they are regarded as psychic bodies and not good things. Therefore, they cannot be buried in the normal burial method, otherwise their bodies will be possessed by monsters and harm people. Life, but when asking the real immortal to cast a spell, their corpses must be burned first as a guide before the immortal descends. This custom did exist in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi and the Shushui River in Bashan, but Professor Sun has not seen it with his own eyes. Dare to say whether it is true or false.

Professor Sun also said that the text of "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" is semi-concise but not comprehensive. It covers the five elements of mathematics, as well as many historical allusions such as folklore. How can ordinary people know these things? ? Most of them have never even heard of it. Those who seek truth must unravel the mystery of these hints if they want to enter the ancient tomb of the Earthly Immortal. They will inevitably go through dangers and go through various life and death tests along the way, but they must bite the bullet and crack it. Is "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" just a waste of time? The efforts of the past six months have been in vain, so I might as well continue to take the risk and do it to the end. The phrase "the candle corpse extinguishes the lamp" must be someone who burned the zombie of the "thing girl". It is better to act according to the law and attract the "ghost" in the ancient tomb. "Sound" comes out and listens to the immortal's guidance. But where is the "Nandou Tomb Chamber"? Professor Sun couldn't guess it.

I said that the "Nandou Tomb Chamber" is far away in the horizon and close at hand. If the tomb chambers in the ancient tomb are arranged according to a star map, they should follow the principle of north to south. The bottom tomb chamber is the glory of Nandou. It was used to store the swords and weapons buried with them, and we all heard the "ghost sounds" coming from the tomb from then on. There are also stones embedded in the walls around the tomb to represent star maps. There is no need to be suspicious.

I thought that this matter was a bit suspenseful, but judging from previous examples, the hints in "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" are often difficult to figure out with normal thinking. Before seeing it with your own eyes, it is difficult to make a judgment in advance, and it is impossible to distinguish whether the hints are true or false. , once you do this, you may not know what kind of disaster it will cause.

I gritted my teeth and thought to myself that the activity of lighting candles has always been the activity of "touching the gold captain". There are five of us here, why should we be afraid of it? And I'm also very curious, can it really bring down the immortals if I use the introduction? What's going on with the erratic "ghost sounds" in the tomb walls?

I made up my mind and immediately took off the lid of the broken lacquer coffin. The female body inside was not lying flat on its side, and it was indeed wearing Ming Dynasty clothes. According to Sun Jiuye, the clothes were "Bijia" , it is a sleeveless women's clothing in the Ming Dynasty. It is worn over a long coat and is also the predecessor of a vest. It is lined with "paddy field clothing", also known as "paddy field clothing". It is a popular variegated patchwork clothing for women in the Ming Dynasty. The feet are made of " "Bow shoes", because many women in the Ming Dynasty had their feet bound, bow shoes were shoes worn by women with bound feet. They were shaped like a bow and had a bottom. Women who did not have their feet bound also had wooden-soled shoes of a similar style.

I didn't listen carefully to Sun Jiuye's endless historical research, because the situation in the coffin had attracted most of my attention. I saw the female corpse in the coffin staring with her mouth open, her face distorted. There are traces of being cut on the inside of the cover, and there are dark dried blood stains on it. It seems that it was nailed alive in the coffin before death. Even now, when I see it, I can still imagine how miserable it was. It was pretended to be a search for clues in an ancient tomb. The "oil lamp" used by the disciples to descend to immortals and invite gods.

Shirley Yang saw a bronze medal hanging on the waist of the female corpse, with the four characters "Guanshan Master Niang" on it. She couldn't help but sighed and said to me, these "Wu Nu Shi Niang" are all Ming Dynasty clothes, and they also carry waist tags with them. Based on this, they should all be associates of Earth Immortal Feng Shigu. They probably didn't know until they were about to die that Feng Shigu was used as a burial object. How could such a cruel thing be done by the Immortal Family? It is true that he has fallen into a heretical way. In traditional Chinese culture, although there is a huge difference between "immortal" and "demon", there is actually only a thin line of difference. If you take one step forward, you are an immortal, and if you step back, you are a demon.

The fat man saw that the female corpse had a lot of jewelry, so he wanted to touch the master's wife's two things as "little souvenirs." Sun Jiuye stopped him and said: "Now that the big event is coming, don't think about making evil money. According to the ancient alchemy techniques, There may be medicines such as incense and incense wax hidden in the clothes and jewelry on the body, which will cause ghost sounds to appear when they are ignited together. Otherwise, you can invite immortals by burning an ordinary corpse, but don't let the small things cost you the big things."

The fat man said sternly: "Who wants to make a fortune? Fatty, don't I want to get her together? You said that this old lady and sister-in-law provoked you, and you had to light her house on fire for a little selfishness? Why not?" Fat Master is not allowed to help her sort out her remains? In the old society, warlords and bandits were tyrannical and oppressed the people, but they were not as unreasonable as you..."

Professor Sun knew that there was nothing to argue with the fat man, so he quickly pulled away and said, "I didn't say anything. I didn't say anything just now. Why don't you just light up the fire?"

At this time, I saw that Yaomei'er looked a little guilty. Knowing that she had never done anything like this, I couldn't help but feel panicked, so I and the fat man placed the female body in the tomb. I took a lighter and prepared to light it. Before I started, I used the With a look, he said a few words to the female corpse. In fact, they were all words to reassure the living. The fat man did not refuse, and said to the female corpse calmly: "Teacher, teacher, our beloved teacher, we I know that your soul has entered heaven long ago, but...but...but in this cold and cruel real world, we still can't do without you. We need your body to illuminate the darkness and search for light. In order to pursue the light, In spring, the soles of our shoes are worn out..."

I saw that the fat man was so smooth-talking that he actually called the teacher's wife teacher, and the content of what he said was not very reliable. I stopped letting him express his emotions any more. I reached out and lit a fire. The corpse's clothes were as dry as wax. It ignites when it encounters fire, and the fire immediately bursts into flames. (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in. There are more chapters.
