Ghost Blows Out the Light

I took the photo from Professor Sun and took a look at it with Shirley Yang. There are six fist-sized blood-red jade beasts in the photo. They look like lions and tigers, with feathers on their bodies and only one eye. It has a ferocious face, and there are many mercury spots on the jade beast. Although the workmanship is exquisite, it gives people a very evil and cold look.

I don't know why, but when I thought that it was something from the shopkeeper of the coffin shop, I couldn't express my disgust. I didn't want to look at it, but when I saw it, I remembered the thing about using dead people to raise fish. I was so disgusted that my stomach was churning. , Was this photo taken yesterday at the Stone Tablet Shop? Could it be that the photo is the jade beast in the stone box found under the coffin?"

Professor Sun nodded and said: "Yes, I think you will use this photo, so I asked my assistant to go back to the county overnight to develop the negatives, and then you can take a closer look at what is special about the photo."

Shirley Yang didn't want to look at these evil beasts too much. Hearing Professor Sun's words, it seemed that there were some clues related to the "Muchus Chen Bead" in the photo, so he picked up the photo and looked at it carefully, and finally found the characteristics: " Professor, the six ruby ​​jade beasts all have one single eye, and it's surprisingly big, which doesn't conform to the normal proportions, and... and the most special thing is the jade beast's single eye, which is exactly the same as Muchen Bead."

Professor Sun said to us: "That's right, that's exactly the case, so I just advised you not to be depressed, there is another village where the willows are dark and the flowers are bright."

Shirley Yang and I were pleasantly surprised, but couldn't figure out how the ancient Dian Kingdom was located in a corner of southern Xinjiang, how could it be connected with "The Muchen Bead"?Could it be that the "Lochen Bead" whose whereabouts have been unknown for so many years has been hidden in the tomb of a certain king of Dian?

Although Professor Sun doesn't know much about the Phoenix Gallbladder "The Muchen Bead", after all, he has mastered a lot of ancient encrypted information, and has done in-depth research on historical archives. Professor Sun thinks: "The Muchen Bead" must exist. This artifact has extraordinary significance to the ancient monarchs, symbolizing power and prosperity, and different cultural backgrounds and geographical relationships make the understanding of "the dust bead" different.

The jade beast in the stone box found in the coffin shop can be said to be from the ancient Dian Kingdom in Yunnan. The Dian Kingdom was once the three counties under the Qin Dynasty. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in turmoil. This area closed the country and established itself as a king. , broke away from the central government, and was not re-pacified until the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

According to records, some people in the ancient Dian Kingdom believed in witchcraft and sorcery. Due to the differences in cosmology and values, there were a lot of conflicts in the country. These people who believed in evil gods left Dian Kingdom and moved to the Lancang River in order to get out of trouble. Living in the deep mountains, the leaders of this group of people call themselves "Xian Wang". There are countless grass-headed emperors like this in Chinese history. There are only a few words about this "Xian Wang" in history books. These jade animals are "Xian Wang" "A sacrificial vessel used for witchcraft.

The six red jade beasts respectively represent the six directions of east, south, west, north, heaven and earth, each of which has its own name and function. "Xian Wang" needs to take some magic drugs when holding sacrificial activities , to make its spirit reach a certain unconscious state, and at the same time, the six jade beasts are fixed on the six altars to generate a certain magnetic field, so that they can communicate with the totem of the evil god at the level of spiritual consciousness.

The jade beasts used in the sacrifice ceremony of "Presenting the King" are much larger than the set under the coffin shop. The set we found under the coffin shop should be used by a wizard with a relatively high status in the middle school. As for how it came to be It is difficult to say how the old shopkeeper mastered these evil methods. There are many possibilities. Maybe he is a tomb robber, maybe he is a descendant of the wizards under the "Xian Wang".

As for the six red jade beasts, it is possible that the "King Xian" materialized the "Lochen Bead" according to their own understanding, or extended it to a certain extent, and this "King Xian" is very It is possible that he has seen the real "Muchen Bead", and it is even possible that he is the last owner of "Muchen Bead", but without more information, this can only be inferred temporarily.

After listening to Professor Sun's analysis, I think it is very reasonable. As long as there is still a chance, we will make great efforts, but when I ask Professor Sun about where the tomb of "Xian Wang" is buried, Professor Sun does not know at all. I know, the "Tomb of King Xian" is located in a remote place, and King Xian himself is proficient in different arts, so the location of the tomb must be very secret. After so many years, the probability of finding it is very slim.

In addition, Professor Sun also told us not to rob tombs, but try to think of other ways. There are many ways to solve the problem. Now that medicine is very advanced, it is best to solve it with scientific and technological means. The values ​​of the ancients were not perfect, and they didn’t have a deep understanding of nature. The wind, rain, thunder, and lightning would be regarded by the ancients as the manifestation of gods. There are many elements of imagination in it, and they promised that as soon as he found any new clues, he would notify us immediately. I am full of mouth I agreed, and said to Professor Sun: "Don't worry about that, why would we go to rob the tomb? Besides, even if we want to go, we won't be able to find it."

Professor Sun nodded and said: "That's good. I hate tomb robbery the most in my life. Although archaeology and tomb robbery have similarities, but tomb robbery damages cultural relics too seriously. The country and the nation..."

I am most afraid of Professor Sun’s preaching. He reminds me of the director of the Political and Education Department when I was in elementary school. Seeing that Professor Sun has basically told us all the information that Professor Sun can tell us, and the rest is all nonsense, I thank Professor Sun again and again, and Shirley Yang I got up to say goodbye, and asked for the photo of the jade beast before leaving. Because Professor Sun had to rush back to the stone tablet shop to continue his work, he didn't go back to the county guest house. After we said goodbye, he went by himself.

I went back to the county guest house with Shirley Yang, and saw the blind man was telling a fortune at the door. The other party was a local woman. The blind man said to the woman, "It's incredible, this grandma is the queen mother of the sky, just because she is tired of living in the sky." Now, I was reincarnated and went to the world to play for a while. Now it’s time to go back to heaven, so I got this incurable disease. It won’t be three months, but you can hear the sound of fairy music in the sky, and you will get up and drive back to the palace. the hour of..."

The woman asked with a sad face: "Old god, do you think there is no cure for my disease? But I am reluctant to part with my man, and I don't want to live with the Jade Emperor. I have no feelings for him. Besides, there are two more in my family. baby."

The blind man seemed very embarrassed, and said to the woman: "My lady, if you don't want to go back to the palace, there is nothing you can do, it's just that the old man..."

The woman kept urging the blind man, and stuffed a ten-yuan bill into the blind man's hand, begging the blind man to find a way to live another five or sixty years.

The blind man twirled the banknote with his hands, knew it was ten yuan, and immediately said seriously: "Forget it, I will go all out and let the Jade Emperor accommodate you. Anyway, one day in the sky and one year in the ground, let the Jade Emperor wait for you." In three or two months, you will live in the mortal world for decades, but this will be a pain for the Jade Emperor, you don’t know something, he thinks about you too much, the last time I saw him, I found out that I lost three laps of weight, and I don’t have the heart to deal with national affairs anymore, and I look forward to the stars and the moon every day, looking forward to your return.”

I was worried that the blind man's nonsense, and later this woman's man would come to make trouble again, and told him that it would be light to provoke a couple's relationship, so I called the blind man to the cafeteria for dinner. When the blind man saw us coming back, he hurriedly put the money away The woman was sent away, and I led him into the cafeteria by the bamboo stick.

We were going to return to Xi'an after lunch, and then back to Beijing. I made a table with Shirley Yang and the blind man. Shirley Yang was very worried and couldn't eat anything. I looked at the photo of the jade beast while eating.

At present, all the clues have been broken, and only these red jade beasts with eyeballs resembling "Muchen Beads" are left. It seems that the next step is to go to Yunnan to find the "Tomb of Xianwang". If you are lucky, you can pour out the phoenix guts At worst, one or two related clues can be found.

But the most difficult thing is how to find this "Tomb of Xianwang". I only know that it is probably in Yunnan, beside the Lancang River.

Shirley Yang asked me: "Don't you often brag about yourself and say that you are proficient in dividing gold points? It's hard to find you in such a small situation. You can find it when you go to the riverside and look up at the stars in the sky. You often say that of."

I smiled wryly and said: "My aunt, how can it be so simple, the Fenjin Ding acupoint can only be used in areas with flat mountains and no undulating terrain. I have been to Yunnan when I was fighting in the front line. The mountainous plateau occupies the entire area of ​​Yunnan. More than 90.00% of Yunnan has three major water systems. In addition to the Jinsha River and the Nu River, the Lancang River runs through the whole province from north to south, and the topography is complex and changeable. If we don't have a specific goal, even if we have Feng Shui secrets, we may not be able to find them in 100 years."

Shirley Yang said to me: "It's really rare, why even you start to say such discouraging words, it seems that this time is really difficult."

I said to Shirley Yang: "I am not discouraged. I think we can summarize our current situation. Confidence is not certain. Confidence is always enough, but now there is no certainty. It is impossible to find a needle in a haystack. We can go back to Beijing first, find everyone to calculate, and then find as much information as possible, even if we are [-]% sure, it is better than [-]%."

The blind man suddenly interrupted and said: "You two, listen to this, do you want to go to Yunnan and fight against each other? The old man advises you to give up your heart as soon as possible. I think back then, the old man waited for a group of warriors who were fighting against the mountain to plot this The rich and powerful man wanted to go to Yunnan to sacrifice the king's fight, but he didn't expect that the place was very dangerous, and six lives were lost for no reason. Only the old man escaped by luck with his real kung fu. I stayed in Yunnan, and when I think about it now, I still have lingering fears in my heart."

The blind man's ordinary words were heard in my ears like a thunderstorm in June. I sprayed the food in my mouth on the blind man's face: "What did you just say? Did you go to Yunnan to find the King Xian's Tomb? If you talk nonsense and have half a lie, we will leave you behind and not take you to Beijing."

The blind man wiped his face and said: "What kind of person is this old man, how can I speak lies? This old man once defeated the King of Dian in Lijiashan, Yunnan, but it was too late, and all the bright weapons in the bucket were used by the predecessors It's gone. In the tomb, apart from a section of human thigh bone, there is only half a map of the ancient Dian Kingdom made of human skin, but the handwriting is already blurred. The old man has always been thieves. There was a reason not to take it, so I took it out immediately. Later, in Suzhou, I invited a local artisan who repaired ancient calligraphy and paintings, and wiped it with ice vinegar sixteen times, and finally made this human skin map intact. Just like before, who knows if you don’t look at it, it turns out that this picture is actually the location of King Xian’s tomb.”

Shirley Yang said to the blind man: "King Xian took a group of citizens and separated from the Dian Kingdom, and moved far away to the mountains to hide from the world. How could there be a map of King Xian's tomb in the tomb of King Dian? Don't lie to us."

The blind man said: "Of course the old man has something to say. The two countries were originally a family. It is said that the place where the king was offered is a treasured place of geomantic omen and buried there after his death. There is a very special environment in that place, and it is impossible for people to fight against each other forever." Think about what kind of heroes Tang Zong and Han Wu were. They frightened the world during their lifetime, but after death, they would inevitably be beaten up and their corpses trampled. , the people under him fell apart, and some people wanted to return to their homeland, so they drew a picture of the location of Xianwang's tomb and presented it to the king of Dian, claiming that such a good acupoint could also be selected for the king of Dian. The back of the leather map, but I must have not selected that kind of treasure later, otherwise how could the old man pour out this human skin map."

The blind man took out a bag of things from his bosom, and when he opened it, he found an ancient leather map. Although it had been restored, it was still very blurry, and the mountains, rivers and rivers in the picture were faintly discernible.

The blind man said: "It's not that the old man is bluffing you two. The old man has kept this picture with him for many years, and he never shows it to others. Today, seeing that you don't believe me, he took it out to let you see it. However, the old man has a word of advice. Look at this picture. In the insect valley in the picture, there is a blank space, there are many strange things there, just like a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, if you have three heads and six arms, the golden steel Arhat is reincarnated, and if you enter the insect valley, you will never return."
