Chapter 132 I dug you up! (This is a 10,000-word chapter. Please subscribe. There will be a lot of updates in the evening!)
"There is even a corpse exorcist?"
Lin Hao frowned tightly.
He knew how prosperous and powerful the corpse exorcists were in ancient times. Most people would not even dare to offend the corpse exorcists, let alone kill them.
And although the corpse exorcist in front of him The skeleton of the craftsman was not very old, and he should not be very strong, but because of his status as a corpse exterminator, he should not have died here, seemingly randomly thrown together with the corpses of these people in the ancient profession.
"This round platform seems to be an altar"
"Could it be……"
"The Queen of Loulan actually uses people from ancient professions to offer sacrifices?"
"It even affected the corpse exorcists?"
"and……"
"Judging from the degree of decay of the clothing on the skeleton"
"These people seem to have died here at different times, and the time span is very large, from the Tang Dynasty to the Qingming period, and even the Republic of China?"
"seem……"
"The ancient country of Loulan has been opened several times during these thousands of years."
"How did that happen?"
The thought was a little unclear, and Lin Hao stopped thinking about it. He thought that maybe finding Queen Loulan would have an answer to all of this.
When he thought about this, he hoped to find Queen Loulan even more.
Not only to complete the system task, but also to solve the doubts that had existed in my mind for many days, so I stopped wasting time on the round platform and went straight around the round platform and continued to move forward.
"Click... click... click……"
The sound of staggered footsteps constantly echoed on the second floor of this empty and quiet castle. at this time.
Sudden!
The footsteps stopped suddenly.
Lin Hao stopped and looked not far ahead, but saw a very luxurious-looking staircase suddenly appearing in front of him.
The handrails of the stairs seemed to be made of porcelain, decorated with gold threads and various gemstones interspersed among them.
Direct access to the third floor of the castle!
He thought that the decoration suddenly became so gorgeous. There must be the Loulan Queen he wanted to find on the third floor of the castle.
So he no longer hesitated, immediately climbed the steps to the third floor of the castle, and started searching.
With constant searching, Lin Hao discovered that the structure of the third floor of the castle was different from the other two floors.
If we say, the first floor is like a banquet hall, and the second floor is a mausoleum maze.
So... this floor is more like a bedroom!
The part just after going up the steps is like a hall, and it seems to be the place where Queen Loulan meets other Loulan envoys.
On the left and right sides of the end of the main hall, there is a small door on each side.
However, no matter which small door you enter from, you can see the scene behind the entire hall.
Behind the small door is a long corridor.
The middle of the two corridors should have been filled with flowers and other plants, but after thousands of years it has become empty.
At the end of both corridors is the same place, a luxurious room.
From the outside, this luxurious room looks like another palace.
"I think that should be the residence of Queen Loulan, right? Lin
Hao muttered in his heart.
With the expectation in his heart, he quickly walked towards the door of the luxurious room.
Then he put his hands on the door and pushed hard.
"squeak——"
With a heartbreaking sound, the two wooden doors were slowly pushed open.
A yellow-red light that was different from the white light of the moonlight suddenly shone out from inside the room.
It shone on Lin Hao's face, showing his puzzled expression.
"this……"
Under his surprised gaze.
There is candlelight in the luxurious room!
A dozen candles were placed on candlesticks in various corners of the room, illuminating the entire room.
Under the candlelight, everything inside was clearly visible.
The most eye-catching thing is a coffin made of pure gold that appears deep in the room.
At first glance, it seems that it has been carefully crafted, and the patterns on it are complex and gorgeous.
No matter whether it is decoration or objects, there is no trace of decay.
Suddenly... as if I could see through time at a glance and go back to a thousand years ago
"It's all true?!"
When Lin Hao saw everything in front of him, he thought it was like the hallucination-like scene he had seen in the city before, so he investigated.
It didn't matter. He immediately found that although the house was full of ghosts, Everything is not illusory, but really exists!
"interesting"
"The ghost energy and yin energy here are stronger than other places in this ancient city."
"only……"
"Although this would keep the objects incorruptible, it would not make sense to keep the candle burning."
"What is the reason for this?"
Thinking about it in his mind, Lin Hao moved forward unconsciously and stepped into the room.
"squeak——"
However, just as he entered the room, he heard the heart-wrenching sound coming from behind him again.
So I turned around subconsciously and saw that the door was closing quickly without any wind.
"boom——!"
Immediately, the door was closed tightly.
Seeing this, Lin Hao frowned slightly.
There was no fear on his face, but full of doubts.
A thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, as if he had thought of something, but for a moment he was not sure.
"Hee hee... hee hee……"
"Haha...hehe……"
"……" at this time.
Waves of laughter appeared in the room.
The sound sounded very empty, as if it was coming from every corner of the room, and there was no trace of it.
For a moment, the room was filled with light and dark.
The candle flame swayed automatically without any wind.
At this time, Lin Hao's brows actually stretched.
The expression on his face not only showed no fear at all, but also became a little excited and exciting.
"My guess must be right!"
"inside this room……"
"There's a ghost!"
When he thought of this, he took out the yellow paper and the judge's pen from his storage backpack, and then began to draw the talisman. At the same time, he began to chant:"Bahai Zhiwen, the evil appears.……"
After a while, the words are finished, the writing stops, and the symbols are completed.
Lin Hao immediately took out the Yin Gong and Yang Hammer, and pasted the newly drawn talisman paper on the center of the Yin Gong's surface.
Then Xuan Qi was poured into the Yang Gong through the palm of his hand, then he aimed it at the talisman on the Yin Gong and started to strike.
"Dang...dang...dang……"
The sound of gongs sounded in the room.
A ripple emerged from the Yin Gong and spread to the surrounding areas.
Gradually... the sound of the gong became more and more rapid, and the ripples became more and more intensive.
At the same time, a faint shadow flashed past in every corner of the room from time to time, looming.
It's just that... every time the shadow appears, it stays longer and becomes clearer.
About half a minute passed.
Sudden!
Lin Hao's eyes widened and he looked at a corner in the room. All the profound energy in his body was poured into the Yang Hammer.
Then he hit the talisman on the Yin Gong hard, and shouted loudly at the same time:"Come out!"
"clang——!!!"
The huge gong sound seemed to distort the surrounding space.
A transparent shadow burst out from the shadow.
Like a sharp sword, it was pointed straight at the corner where Lin Hao was looking just now.
"ah!"
Almost the next moment.
An exclamation sounded from the corner.
The voice was very pleasant, with a bit of spirit and a bit of charm, which made people's hearts flutter.
The figure of a woman suddenly appeared, like As if being thrown out of the void, he staggered forward a few steps.
He was wearing something like a cheongsam, which perfectly outlined his slim and graceful figure.
Her long, thin white legs were slit from both sides. Most of the skirt is exposed, although the face cannot be seen for a while, but it is enough to make people think.
"this……!"
At this time, Lin Hao was suddenly stunned.
Under his disbelieving gaze.
The woman slowly straightened up and raised her head.
It is a face that will captivate a country.
All the words are not enough to describe the facial features of this face. It is like a fairy from heaven, with no flaw to be found.
There was a bit of fear in her smart eyes, and she looked at herself with a bit of annoyance.
However, he was not stunned because of the beauty of this woman, but because... this woman was exactly the same as the woman on the jade he salvaged from the river bed where the Walking Dead Manor was!
"The one carved on the jade is indeed Queen Loulan!"
"This Queen of Loulan is indeed different from others……"
"He has turned into a ghost!"
"���but……"
"I thought that after turning into a ghost, he would become extremely ferocious."
"But I didn't expect……"
"It seems that he still maintains his appearance in life"
"It's a bit strange."
Lin Hao has experienced a lot during his time exorcising corpses. He has never seen a ghost before, and this is the first time he has seen one.
He is not very afraid, but full of curiosity.
Ghost! Still a female ghost! What a ghost!
What a surprise! Before
Lin Hao could think about it, the pleasant voice sounded again:"May I ask, are you a walking master?"" The voice was full of doubts and a bit of surprise. Lin Hao's eyes narrowed and he looked at the woman in front of him again. He nodded, taking it as an answer, and then slowly opened his mouth and asked:"You are the Queen of Loulan
……"
Having said this, he paused, and after a moment's hesitation, he added:"He turned into a ghost, right?"
"I didn't know it was the walking master who came here, but I was a little offended before!"
Queen Loulan bowed slightly to Lin Hao, with a look of surprise and excitement on her face.
Then, there was a hint of sadness in her eyes, and she said with a wry smile:"Master, don't be surprised, I have been here since After turning into a ghost, it has been here for more than a hundred years. In these years, I have never seen a stranger, so when I saw the walking master, I wanted to tease him, without any intention of harming anyone!"
Hearing this, Lin Hao frowned slightly.
He got a few pieces of information from the words of Queen Loulan's ghost just now - firstly, Queen Loulan seemed to have turned into a ghost in just a hundred years.
Secondly, Queen Loulan has never seen anyone else
"But……"
"There are obviously so many remains of ancient people on the second floor of this castle."
"Why does it say that?"
Thinking of this, Lin Hao didn't want to think about it in his heart.
He went through all the trouble to find Queen Loulan just to complete the task and solve the doubts in his heart.
So he didn't waste any time and asked simply :"There are so many remains of people in the ancient trade downstairs, and you say you haven’t seen anyone alive in hundreds of years? Are you lying to me?"
"Are there many remains of ancient people downstairs?"
Queen Loulan was startled.
Then, she waved her hand quickly and explained:"I didn't deceive the walking master, I just let it feel that my soul body will become stronger every hundred years, but I still can't get out of this place. The third floor, let alone knowing what happened on the second floor"
"Does it get stronger every hundred years?"
Hearing this, Lin Hao frowned.
His mind seemed to have caught an invisible thread, and he suddenly understood many things.
"The clothes worn on the skeletons downstairs are based on the degree of decay.……"
"Isn't it almost a hundred years apart?!"
"It seems that someone is sacrificing people from ancient professions every hundred years to increase the speed at which these resentments and obsessions turn into ghosts in the entire ancient city of Loulan."
"And this person seems to be the mysterious person from Loulan who originally offered advice to Song Shenzong!"
"It seems……"
"Wang Anshi's function is not to absorb luck, but to absorb the grievances of countless living people buried with him, as well as the large amount of Yin energy produced by these people after their death, in order to judge whether this sacrificial method is feasible."
"only……"
"It is impossible for a person to live for thousands of years. It seems that his descendants are also involved."
"And I should be a person from the ancient profession who has been introduced to Ancient Loulan to be sacrificed in the past hundred years?"
"but……"
"What is this mysterious ancient trade in Loulan?"
"Why did you turn the entire city into a ghost?"
Lin Hao found that the more he knew, the more he analyzed, but at the same time, the number of questions continued to increase.
He was very glad that he had found Queen Loulan, and at least he had someone to ask questions.
He pondered for a moment, and then calmed down. Xu Xu asked:"Do you have any ancient trades in Loulan? Queen
Loulan raised her eyebrows slightly, and without hesitation, she said slowly:"In Loulan, it seems that only the high priest is a person in the ancient profession. After saying that
, she looked at Lin Hao doubtfully and asked puzzledly:"I wonder why the walking master asked this?""
"High priest?"
Lin Hao nodded and secretly recorded this ancient profession in his mind.
As for this high priest profession, Lin Hao really doesn't know much about it. There is no record in the ancient books on exorcism. It should be a profession that rarely occurs outside.
Moreover , , depending on the situation, only the ancient Loulan country has this profession. With the demise of the ancient Loulan country, this profession has appeared less often in history, so it has not been recorded in ancient books.
However, it seems that this high priest profession should have some. Skill!
Moreover, the high priest's lineage had not only killed the corpse collector, but now he seemed to have been involved. Thinking of this, Lin Hao no longer thought about it.
He looked at Queen Loulan and said slowly:"After the ancient kingdom of Loulan suddenly disappeared, a high priest appeared among the descendants of Loulan. I am afraid that this high priest is using some means to turn the entire ancient city of Loulan into ghosts!"
"What?!"
Hearing this, Queen Loulan exclaimed.
Her eyes swayed a few times, and she shook her head in disbelief and said:"It's impossible, it's impossible, let alone future generations, even the contemporary high priest is impossible. There is such a means"
"Unless they know the existence of that thing!"
Lin Hao originally thought that Queen Loulan was excited because she mentioned that Loulan Ancient Kingdom suddenly disappeared, or that people in Loulan Ancient City were turning into ghosts.
But now it seems... that's obviously not the case!
But because of the high priest!
"seem……"
"Queen Loulan knows what the high priest is doing! When he thought of this
, his eyes showed a bit of curiosity and expectation, and he quickly asked:"What is the thing you are talking about?" Do you know what the high priest is doing?"
"this……"
There was obvious hesitation on Queen Loulan's face.
It pondered for a moment, and finally sighed slowly, and said with some regret:"This thing may be the reason why the ancient Loulan Kingdom disappeared."
As soon as it opened its mouth, it was revealed a shocking secret.
Lin Hao suddenly became interested.
He did not interrupt Queen Loulan's words and continued to listen calmly.
Queen Loulan did not keep Lin Hao waiting for a long time, and then spoke again:"This is what I saw in the ancestral home of the Loulan royal family. It is said that the ancient Loulan country was originally established here because the founding emperor discovered a secret here. A treasure, but no matter how hard I moved it, I couldn’t move it away, so I built the ancient city of Loulan here in order to take the treasure as my own."
"However, except for the first emperor, all of us in the Loulan royal family later knew that there was a treasure under the ancient city of Loulan, and we didn’t know where it was buried, so we had never seen it before."
"Just think of it as a legend!"
"But as the ancient Loulan Kingdom became more and more powerful, all the members of the Loulan royal family had a feeling in their hearts."
"This feeling is very unified and clear. Everyone feels that the ancient city of Loulan prospered because of this treasure. At the same time, they also feel that their lives will be lost because of this treasure."
"Generation after generation, this feeling becomes more and more obvious as the ancient country of Loulan becomes more and more prosperous."
"until……"
"My generation!"
"I secretly felt that the end was approaching, but I didn't know how to speak to the people, so I never said it. However, I had already prepared a coffin and placed it in the room, and slept in the coffin every night. in case for need"
"Unexpectedly, I ended up using it"
"It’s like we are cursed, we have feelings but can’t find a clue."
At this point, Queen Loulan gave a wry smile, seeming to express her helplessness about her fate.
Then she thought about the high priest's problem and continued:"As for what the high priest did, it is also recorded in the ancient royal books."
"It is said that the founding emperor had discovered this a long time ago, so he thought of a way to deal with this possible disaster."
"The record of this method is very vague and messy. The general meaning is that once a disaster strikes and everyone is dead, you can use this treasure to turn everyone into ghosts first, and then re-understand the secret of this treasure. With the help of the treasure, Maybe rebirth can be achieved!"
"only……"
"Whether it is the treasure or the method, it is recorded in the ancient royal books, and the high priest has no way of knowing it!"
At the end of the sentence, Queen Loulan frowned and stood there, repeating the same question over and over again:"How could he know? how could be?……"
Lin Hao listened quietly from beginning to end, and his heart gradually became clear.
He found that this seemed to be completely consistent with his own previous guess.
"It seems that for some unknown reason, everyone in the ancient Loulan Kingdom died in an instant.……"
"But Loulan’s ancient profession, the high priest, survived
