Ghost Blowing Lantern II - Chapter 271 Death—comes unexpectedly
Finally, Captain Feng wanted to knock Sun Xuewu unconscious with a stick and run away. Suddenly he remembered something and told Sun Xuewu: “This Bashan ape is a creature that was domesticated in the mountains when our father was still alive. It has been a psychic for many years.” , can understand people’s thoughts, and is only a few years younger than me. It has always been by my side these years. This time I went to look for the ancient tomb in Dixian Village. Whether dead or alive, it will come back and bring you a message. If something happens to me, you will be the only descendant of our Guanshan Feng family. You must try to enter the Coffin Gorge again in twelve years to see if Feng Shigu, who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors, has found the Corpse Immortal. “
Sun Xuewu knew that life and death were about to end, and he was sad and worried. He cried and said: “Brother, you have been in the army for half your life. You have seen a lot. You have learned far more skills passed down from your ancestors than me. I only hate me in this life.” If I was mistaken by a scholar and became a useless nerd, even if you can’t do things, I’m afraid I will be hopeless in this life.”
Captain Feng sighed, patted his brother on the shoulder and said, “This matter is extremely difficult and dangerous, and it is indeed difficult for you. But if you don’t do it, how can there be anyone else in our Guanshan Feng family?” He pondered for a moment, He added: “If you feel that you are alone and weak in the future, you can find a way to find the captain of Mojin for help. I once heard that in the late Qing Dynasty, there was a Mr. Zhang who specialized in the business of mojin and inversion. Since the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, it was destroyed Since the creation of the gold-touching talisman token in the hair mound, there should be three gold-touching talismans left in the world. Presumably, the secret technique of searching mountains and looking for dragons is still passed down by people to this day.”
Captain Feng told his brothers that if there is nothing they can do in the future, they should ask the “Gold Touching Captain” for help. As the saying goes, “Touching gold is the king of the seventy-two lines.” Only the “Secret Technique of Touching Gold” can defeat the “Earth Immortal”. “Village Ancient Tomb”.
Sun Xuewu felt even more embarrassed when he heard this. When he was a child, he heard his father say that there are really capable “inverted fighting” masters in this world since ancient times. The group of bandits who “moved mountains to divide armies” had disappeared long before liberation; the group of Taoists who “moved mountains to divide armor” seemed to have no descendants either, and they had all disappeared for many years.
The “Captain Touching the Gold” was the number one scholar in the fighting industry, and he must have been very capable. However, in the Ming Dynasty, their “seal token” was destroyed by the court. If we really trace the origin of this matter, It is also our responsibility to “watch the mountain and seal the family”. Although hundreds of years have passed, I am afraid that even to death we will not be able to escape the original relationship.
Captain Feng said that the deeds of the “Guanshan Taibao of the Ming Dynasty” were kept very secret, and outsiders never knew about it. The remaining “Gold-touching Captains” should not know those old things, and the practice of touching gold to help the world has existed since ancient times. , as long as you find them and explain the reason, they will probably help.
Sun Xuewu still felt powerless. Although it is said that in the late Qing Dynasty, there was a “Golden Colonel”. Because he hung three talismans by himself, he was called “Zhang Sanlianzi”, but what year is it now? During this period, “the sun and the moon traveled back and forth, and dynasties changed.” So many earth-shaking changes took place in the world. Who knows if there will be any descendants of the golden talisman?
Taking a step back, even if Mr. Zhang really passed down the “Gold Touching Talisman” and “Xunlong Jue” back then, it would only be passed down to two or three people. What the “Gold Touching Captain” did is not It is extremely hidden. There is a huge sea of people in this world. Now who knows where the traces of those “gold captains” have gone? I was left alone, where could I find them?
Captain Feng saw that his brother was not up to par, and he was always afraid of wolves and tigers in everything he did and said. He knew that it would be difficult for him to take on the important task, but there was nothing he could do. After he led his people into the mountain in ancient times, the atmosphere of the past has disappeared. Although science is prosperous today, he still firmly believes in the so-called “corpse immortal” mentioned in the instructions of his ancestors, and believes that “the seal of immortality” “Shigu” was practicing evil arts in the mountains. Who knows what the consequences were. If he did what he said before entering the tomb and “entered the world to save people” in the future, many innocent people would surely be killed.
Therefore, Captain Feng is determined. The affairs of the old Feng family must be solved by the old Feng family. Besides, if he stays in the labor camp, he will die. It is better to escape back to “Wushan” and die. It would be better to die in the ancestral home of “Coffin Gorge”. Fortunately, he risked his life to break into the “Dixian Village Ancient Tomb” and settle the “karma” created by the Feng family in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.
Moreover, Captain Feng knew that the “Nine Death Jingling Armor” buried in “Coffin Mountain” was only opened once every twelve years. Counting on his fingers, there was not much time left, so he had to harden his heart and use the “pickaxe handle” He knocked Sun Xuewu unconscious in order to prevent Sun Xuewu from eating “Gualuo’er” for him, and then fled into the mountains at night, never to come back again.
Sun Xuewu was greatly stimulated by this incident. He followed his brother’s teachings and became even more taciturn from then on. He was afraid of losing his words if he spoke too much, and rarely had contact with outsiders, because the matter was indeed as Captain Feng said, at that time In those days, if it was revealed that one’s ancestors were “landowners, miners” or “grave robbers, royalists”, one would have to skin one’s skin even if one did not die.
In addition, the nature of Sun Xuewu’s work was extremely boring and monotonous, which gradually turned him into a withdrawn person, making people around him reject him. Only Professor Chen Jiuren and Chen were considered his friends, but even An “old friend” who was as close as Professor Chen was definitely not a friendship that he could dig deep into his heart.
After the Cultural Revolution, although Sun Xuewu’s problems were more complicated and organizational conclusions had not yet been reached, his work was temporarily resumed. He never saw his brother and the “Bashan Monkey” again. He was often worried about this matter in his heart, and finally found him. He had an opportunity to enter the “Coffin Gorge” alone. He had never returned to his ancestral home in his life, but the route and topography here had been passed down from generation to generation in his family, and he also knew that they were inseparable.
At that time, the ancient town of Qingxi had been abandoned. He met the “Bashan ape” in the deserted town, was taken into the “Coffin Gorge”, and saw the body of his brother, Captain Feng.
Before his death, Captain Feng left a suicide note to Sun Xuewu, which described in detail his experience after absconding from “Guoyuangou”:
When Captain Feng fled back to his ancestral home town of “Qingxi”, the construction of the “Qingxi Air Raid Shelter” was coming to an end. The construction workers at that time had already penetrated the main tunnel from the underground of the ancient town to the “Coffin Gorge”, and from the ancient mine A group of “stone figures” were excavated in Daoli and some of them were transported to the construction headquarters in the town.
At that time, the construction workers did not have the concept of “cultural relics”. They just thought it was strange that such a hideous and ugly stone statue was buried in the mountain, and planned to report the situation to their superiors for instructions on how to deal with it.
Captain Feng caught a glimpse of this situation and knew something was wrong. He quickly took the “Bashan Monkey King” to play tricks in the town and disturbed the attention of the construction workers. At that time, the strength of the “Qingxi Air Raid Shelter” did not meet the standards. , the superiors temporarily suspended the civil air defense project in this area, and all the people working on the construction evacuated, leaving only an empty ancient town, and no one paid attention to the ancient relics near the “Coffin Gorge” anymore, which made him relieved.
Captain Feng spent half his life wandering among swords and guns, and his courage and knowledge were far beyond ordinary people. He took his only companion “Bashan Monkey” into the “Coffin Gorge”, but found that he could not open the “Nine Palaces Chihu Lock” , he didn’t learn all the abilities passed down from his ancestors, and then he realized how powerful the “Earth Immortal” was. He had thought too simply before, and he was so angry that his old injuries broke out. He had to pay for himself and his life was not long. It is estimated that Sun Xuewu will be in the future. It is possible to go into the mountains to look for him and leave a final message.
Before he died, Captain Feng suddenly remembered something. When he was in the Northeast, before he had a fight with Yang Erdan’s group of gangsters, he heard them say that the Kwantung Army was looking for an ancient object in the mountains. This thing was a Feng Shui secret. The utensil, wherever it is buried, is Mianlong’s “treasure cave”, but I didn’t hear clearly what utensil it was at the time. I only seemed to hear that the secret utensil was removed from an ancient mirror. I don’t know.
It has been a tradition in China for thousands of years that ancient mirrors can defeat evil spirits and suppress corpses. Therefore, Feng Tuanzai told Sun Xuewu in his suicide note, with your ability, if you want to enter the ancient tomb to deal with the corpse immortal, you will have to go through it. Answer, not only do you have to find a way to unlock the “Nine Palaces Chihu Lock”, but you also have to consider the “Road Map” hidden in the “Wuyang King Underground Palace”. This map and countless fake maps are hidden in Zhenshan’s coffin. If you don’t understand the ways of the Nine Palaces and Bagua, you won’t know which picture is real when you get there; if you are engaged in archaeological work, if you have the opportunity to get a few “ancient mirrors” handed down from ancient times, bring a few of these things into the Going to the ancient tomb to meet the “Earth Immortal” will give you a better chance of winning.
At the end of this suicide note, Captain Feng confessed that he was sorry for his biological brother Sun Xuewu in this life, and repeatedly told him to complete the tasks entrusted by his ancestors even if his body was broken into pieces, otherwise he would not let his brother and father collect his bones and bury him.
Sun Xuewu hugged the body and cried bitterly. He hid his brother’s suicide note and relics close to his body. After returning, he continued to remain anonymous. Among the relics were many “numerical skills” passed down by the Guanshan Feng family, including using paper figures and horses to burn incense and round the light. However, it is ineffective until we see the murals of Tang Dynasty demon tombs in ancient tombs. We still don’t know whether this technique is true or false.
In addition, his ancestor Feng Shiqi participated in the construction of the Earth Immortal Tomb and knew some of the internal conditions and left some relevant records. However, when they were passed down to Sun Xuewu, they were all fragmented, but he still roughly knew the “Wuyang King Ancient Tomb” “There are some situations inside, where are the murals in the Tang Dynasty Demon Tomb, and which tomb passage is the map hidden in, and then you can get into the maze-like mine cave and enter the Earth Immortal Tomb according to the map. These things finally took shape in his mind.
But when it comes to cracking the “Guanshan Zhimi Fu” and finding out the “door of life” step by step from those obscure and difficult hints, it is extremely difficult to do it based on what he knows and has learned, but he has a very deep mind and is even more… With perseverance and patience, he used his work to study the “Zhou Tian Ancient Gua” day and night, in order to solve the puzzles when he entered the ancient tomb in the future. He also searched everywhere for the “Corpse-Suppressing Ancient Mirror” and the “Gold Touching School” for hanging talismans. “Wei”, in order to settle this old debt in his lifetime, so that the spirits of his father, brother, and ancestors can rest in peace in heaven.
In this dark and cold temple, what Mr. Sun Jiu said made us all stunned. Even if I had thirty-six thousand more spins in my mind, I still wouldn’t be able to guess what the truth is. Listening to his words, I have nothing to doubt anymore, because some of the details in it belong to “Undersea Eyes” and are definitely not lies that can be fabricated out of thin air. I can completely believe what he said.
I asked Mr. Sun Jiu: “So you have been targeting Captain Jin for a long time? Can you tell me when you started?”
Sun Jiuye said: “From the first time we met in Shaanxi, you and Da Jinya asked me to see the mark on the back of your neck. At that time, you pulled open your collar and I saw the gold-touching charm hanging on you at a glance.”
I thought to myself, “I’m wronged.” At that time, my “gold-touching talisman” was still a fake given to me by Da Jinya. Only the fat man found a real talisman from the pile of mummies in Longling Cave. I didn’t expect that the person who took it was unintentional and the person who saw it was a real talisman. On purpose, it turns out that we have been targeted by Mr. Sun Jiuye since then. He must have been harboring evil plots against us for a long time, but I have always been kept in the dark. Fortunately, I still think that I am always aware of the latest development trend of class struggle. , this time I was completely screwed, being sold and counting the money for them.
Sun Jiuye said: “At that time, I thought you were nothing like Big Gold Tooth. You were no different from those second-rate dealers in Panjiayuan. I didn’t believe that you could understand the secret technique of touching gold. But later I heard that you brought It was only after Lao Chen’s expedition team entered the desert and found the ancient city of Jingjue that I looked at you differently, but… I still wanted to try your skills, so when we met for the second time, I provided you with some Yunnan Xianwang Clues to the tomb.”
When I heard this, I felt even more angry. I recalled the first time I heard Professor Sun say the words “Xian Wang’s Tomb” in the coffin shop of Shaanxi Shibeidian. And “Xianwang Tomb”, Shirley Yang and I would not have made up our mind to go to “Zhelong Mountain” in Yunnan at that time. How deep is Sun Jiuye’s scheming? Really worthy of being the “Guanshan Taibao”.
Sun Jiuye continued: “I have been too tired in this life. Now that I have entered the Tomb of the Earthly Immortal, I have nothing to hide, so I will simply tell you. Later, I got bronze dragon talismans one after another, and then After knowing the whereabouts of the Guixu Ancient Mirror, I told Lao Chen a big lie and asked you to go to the South China Sea to salvage Qingtou…”
Sun Jiuye told us that after he obtained the ancient bronze mirror, he had the idea of going to the “Wushan Coffin Gorge”, but it was not easy to invite the “Golden Captain” to accompany him. He was most worried about his hidden secrets. Once the identity and deception of the ancient mirror were exposed, the two “gold-touching captains” Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty, who were like idle members of society, would tell each other the “Full Collection of Guanshan Zhimi Fu”. They are all guys who like to “speculate”. Most of them don’t have any professional ethics. They will definitely abandon themselves on the spot and go straight to the ancient tombs of Dixian Village to make a fortune.
So Sun Jiuye racked his brains to think of a way. He also learned from Professor Chen that the group was now going to find the “golden elixir” condensed in the ancient corpse. If the scriptures were quoted, the scientific name was the “elixir cauldron” of the dead. So he kept doing nothing and resorted to a “bitter trick” and compiled a “work notebook”. In the notebook, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, he revealed the “Alchemy Cauldron” hidden in the “Dixian Village Ancient Tomb” He came out and deceived himself to obtain the “Guixu Ancient Mirror”. He also recorded in it, but it was particularly emphasized that the “Gua Mirror” can predict the location of the ancient tomb. If you go to Wushan’s “Coffin Gorge”, you have to bring this mirror with you. .
Then Sun Jiuye followed him all the way and pretended to have lost his notebook in the “Tianjin Museum of Natural History”. But when he turned around, he suddenly remembered that Bai Mi Yishu had not planned a good day, and the “Nine Deaths Jingling Armor” who was guarding the tomb was revealed to be alive. , there was still half a year left, so he had to resort to concealment methods, and first revealed a “Guanshan Zhimi Fu” to stabilize everyone, delaying the time for half a year.
Taking advantage of the past six months, Sun Jiuye found another opportunity to sneak back to the “Coffin Gorge” alone, and arranged it secretly. Even his brother’s “suicide note” was replaced with a fake one, and he found the “suicide note” who was always wandering nearby to guard the body. “Bashan Ape”, he gestured and told it some things. The ape was extremely psychic and had lived a long time. It could understand the meaning of Sun Jiuye to a certain extent.
In the end, Sun Jiuye pretended to rush back from other places and led everyone into the mountains. Although he hid a lot of secrets, he rarely interacted with outsiders, so he was not good at pretending. Sometimes pretending to be three points is enough. , but when it comes to him, he often has to pretend to be very good, lead the crowd, and reveal the “Guanshan Zhimi Fu” intermittently. The content after “If you want to see the immortals, first find Wuyang”, he has mostly tampered with it himself. Just to prevent others from dumping him and going it alone.
As the saying goes, “People have hundreds of calculations, but God has only one calculation.” But after all, people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations. Professor Sun never dreamed that there would be an extra member on the way, namely Yao Meier from “Fengwo Mountain”. She easily opened the “Nine Palace Chihu Lock”, a nearly lost “pin device” “The craftsmanship is something that even the “Gold Touching Captain” doesn’t possess. There were also a few things that were carefully planned in advance, but went wrong, causing many shocking things. Afterwards, thinking about it, it was really a blessing.
When we entered the “Old Tomb of King Wuyang”, there was no structure in the figurine passage in front of the tomb door of “Wuhou Hidden Soldiers”, because due to the unstable rise and fall of underground underground springs, it was not built in the end and only had its shape. When piecing together the map in this tomb passage, Sun Jiuye wanted to get rid of the others after getting the real map, so he secretly sent a signal to the “Bashan Monkey” to hide in the tomb passage in advance. When the fat man and I were unprepared, he burned incense to attract immortals, trying to entangle us with the demonic appearance of the “belly immortal” in order to escape.
Sun Jiuye sighed to me: “I know you have gradually begun to doubt me, so I wanted to take the map in the tomb passage and leave. I didn’t expect that you, Hu Bayi, are so shrewd and opportunistic. You saw through it and put together a fake picture to deceive me. It’s better now. You can’t escape even if you want. The Nine Death Jingling Armor in the mountain is about to be closed, and the door to life will be opened again…it will have to wait until twelve years later. ”
I said nonchalantly: “Don’t be alarmist with me. As long as you dare to come in, Mr. Sun Jiu, why shouldn’t I dare? At worst, we can go out together in twelve years.”
Sun Jiuye did not answer me directly, but asked Shirley Yang what time it was now. Shirley Yang looked at her watch: “It’s exactly twenty minutes until midnight.”
Sun Jiuye said: “We walked in for a long time. If we go back through the secret passage, two or three hours will definitely not be enough. As soon as midnight, the Nine Death Jingling Armor will appear. You must know it if you touch the golden captain This thing is so powerful that this armor was installed in the Maoling Mausoleum of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. When the Red Eyebrow Rebel Army stole the Maoling Mausoleum, there were countless casualties. It took hundreds of thousands of people half a month to break through the Nine Death Jingling Mausoleum… …”
I said to Professor Sun: “Of course I know how powerful the Nine Death Jingling Armor is, but the Red Eyebrow Army did not have the means to dismantle the mountain at that time. It was nothing more than a mob digging indiscriminately. It is not surprising how many people were killed or injured. I just want to ask You, since you will die if you enter Coffin Mountain, why do you dare to come in? Do you really don’t want to live anymore?”
The muscles on Sun Jiuye’s face suddenly twitched twice, and he whispered: “Do you still remember that I once told you… that the four of you are already dead?”
My heart trembled, and I remembered that there were indeed signs of corpse scars emerging on my body. This was very bad, so I asked: “But you old ghost also told us before that as long as we enter the Coffin Mountain Fairy Village, we can survive. Could it be that we can survive?” Are you talking nonsense to us? Why don’t you show some objective attitude of a dialectical materialist?”
Shirley Yang also found it unbelievable and asked him to explain the matter. Sun Jiuye shook his head helplessly: “The corpse aura in Coffin Gorge is too strong. The corpse spots on your body are not serious. It’s just that you were poisoned by corpse poison.” , I will not die in the end. I was in a hurry to enter the tomb of the Earthly Immortal just now, and I didn’t have time to explain it clearly to you, so I told this lie. But I did it all because of you. Now… now I will tell you directly. Come on, don’t panic. I swear to the ancestors of the Guanshan Feng family that I am absolutely telling the truth. Among the five of us, at least one of us is dead. The real person who is already dead…is me.” (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in. There are more chapters. Support the author and genuine reading!)
