Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 291 The art of impeachment! (4100)

Although Yang Wanli and Yu Ji are enemies, he knows that this matter is a matter of life and death.

So this time when Yu Ji reprimanded him, he didn't dare to argue with him, but shut his mouth honestly and stood aside.

Only then did Yu Ji look proud, and continued: "The slips also say that there was a small test in the tomb before that. If we have no bottom line in robbing the tomb and wantonly destroy the objects in the coffin , especially if the pottery head was damaged, then we would have killed ourselves, and the owner of the tomb did not dare to expect us to let him go, so he had to leave us here to be buried with him."

"If we didn't damage the pottery head in advance, it means that we should still have a little respect for the owner of the tomb. It's not that the owner of the tomb let us go, but we let ourselves go..."

"Pottery head?"

Hearing this, everyone unconsciously turned their heads to look at the pottery head that had been moved outside the coffin.

Could it be that there is another mystery behind this head?

Especially Dian Wei.

Just now this pottery head was removed from the coffin with his own hands. Although the weight of this thing is slightly heavy, it doesn't feel much different from ordinary pottery, so he didn't take it seriously.

However, under Wu Liang's leadership, the Huan army's tomb robbery did have a relatively bottom line.

At least no matter what insane things the owner of the tomb did before his death, Wu Liang would never expose the body of the owner of the tomb to the wilderness, let alone destroy the tomb wantonly, even after taking away what he needed, he would Help the tomb owner seal the tomb again, and set up a more effective anti-theft measure than before.

Today's grave robbers are completely different.

Take Lu Bu as an example, this person does not pay much attention to tomb robbery. When he followed Dong Zhuo back then, he directly burned down the Luoyang Imperial Palace and dug up the famous Han imperial tombs in Luoyang, and his methods were very low-level. Leading a large army to excavate, destroy the corpses in Pingqiu, search for treasures, and implement the "three light" policy.

Therefore, for the tomb owner who suffered from tomb robbers, Wu Liang and Huan Renjun are many times more kind than ordinary tomb robbers.

only……

What is the mystery of this pottery head?

Everyone has already begun to speculate secretly.

Could it be that there is a poison that can kill people hidden inside, and once it is damaged, the poison will leak out and poison them all to death?

Or is there some powerful mechanism hidden, the mechanism inside will be triggered if it is damaged, and it can shoot a powerful weapon to kill them?
Everyone was puzzled.

The most important thing is, no matter what is hidden inside, is there anything else that can break through these strong and thick copper walls?
If these copper walls cannot be broken, they will still be trapped to death in this place to be buried with the owner of the tomb, right?
"Old man, go ahead."

Wu Liang also couldn't figure it out, so before Yu Ji translated all the content in the bamboo slips, he decided not to continue thinking about it.

"The bamboo slips didn't say how we should escape, but only mentioned the two volumes of 'Diamond Diamond' in the Young Master's hands."

Yu Ji nodded slightly and said, "It is said that after we have read the contents of 'Diamond Diamond', we will naturally find a way to escape, and then we can leave on our own."

"!"

As soon as these words came out, Wu Liang immediately had a direction.

The "Diamond Diamond" in his hand mentioned this kind of strange thing shaped like a mouse, and said that this strange thing "can be carved with it, and it will be invincible". "Find the answer in...

Could it be that the "Diamond Diamond" is hidden in this tomb, and the "Diamond Diamond"'s "unbreakable" attribute can break through these strong and thick copper walls?
If you think about it this way.

Could it be the "Diamond Diamond" hidden in that pottery skull?

At the same time as this idea came up, several doubts immediately appeared in Wu Liang's mind:

The "Diamond" recorded in bamboo slips seems to be a very strange creature.

Just now Wu Liang carefully observed the pottery head. The pottery head was fired in one piece without any holes or gaps. Even if it is not vacuum, it must be completely sealed.

It was really hard for Wu Liang to imagine how a creature could live for nearly a thousand years in a completely sealed pottery head, which itself is an incredible thing.

So if there is a "diamond" hidden in the pottery head, is it still alive?
Even if "diamond" is really useful, is "dead diamond" still useful?
and also.

Pottery needs to be fired at a high temperature, and the pottery made of this kind of remains must first be wrapped in "diamond diamond" in clay and then fired to make such a pottery head. Added the possibility that "Diamond" is dead.

Even though the bamboo slips say that "Diamond" has only one weakness: "It can only be broken with an antelope horn." Wu Liang still finds it hard to imagine that a living creature can live in such a situation for nearly a thousand years.

This is probably the same as the grandson monkey in the later mythical novel "Journey to the West" that the alchemy furnace could not be burned to death, and Wuzhishan was safe and sound for 500 years...

There may be other explanations, the answers are all in the bamboo slips in his hand.

However, Wu Liang was not in a hurry to find the answer. Instead, he calmed down and looked at Yu Ji again, and asked, "Did the above say anything else?"

"It also said that the owner of the tomb studied many alchemy techniques during his lifetime, but the one he is most proud of and proficient at is 'the art of impeachment'."

Yu Ji paused, and then said, "At the beginning, the owner of the tomb relied on this 'skill of impeachment' to fight against Lu Zuo, who was driven to the country by Jiang Taigong, and saved the life of Qi Dinggong Lu Ji. Lu Zuo was harmed, and the owner of the tomb still felt guilty until his death. Therefore, before he passed away, he improved the "skill of impeachment" with his own talent, making its effect more powerful. Instead, he lost his life.”

"It's a pity that the descendants of the owner of the tomb did not inherit the talent of the owner of the tomb. Even if he practiced the "art of disgust" for generations, not only did he not make any progress, he even couldn't understand the mystery of it. The technique of impeachment has almost been lost."

"For this reason, the descendants of the Qiu family have been looking for a stranger who can inherit the mantle of the owner of the tomb."

"Until Qiu Loujia, the patriarch of the Qiu clan, moved his family to the Chu State in order to protect the family. At that time, their situation was not good. In order to prevent the 'skill of impeachment' from being lost in their hands, Qiu Loujia had to start again. When building a mausoleum for the owner of the tomb, the authentic work of "The Art of Impeachment" was buried in the tomb, and the family only left a manuscript for future generations to study or continue to search for strangers who can inherit the mantle of the tomb owner. "

"The bamboo slips also said that since we can read this volume of 'Ruhe', we have already proved our ability, then please study 'Disgust'. If we have an epiphany after reading it, then the owner of the tomb The "Skill of Disgust" is ours. If the descendants of the Qiu family can't understand the mystery, please keep the "Skill of Disgust" and find talented strangers to pass it on. It has failed the painstaking efforts of the owner of the tomb."

"Besides, there is another request in the bamboo slips."

"The pottery jar contained the body of the owner of the tomb. Someone from the Wa country crossed the sea and sneaked into the Qi country to find the cemetery of Qiu Mu, trying to damage the tomb of Duke Mu of Qiu. Successfully, not only stole the treasures in the tomb, but also burned the body of the tomb owner."

"They suspected that this was Lu Zuo's handwriting. When Qiu Mugong rescued Qi Dinggong Lu Ji with the 'art of disgust', Lu Zuo suffered the backlash of sorcery, so that half of his body lost consciousness. Most of it was also abolished, Lu Zuo held a grudge, and once threatened to beat Qiu Mugong to ashes, but later Lu Zuo was dispatched by Jiang Taigong to the Wa Kingdom and there was no news."

"Therefore, this matter must have something to do with Lu Zuo. I'm afraid that at that time he already had some climate in the Wa Kingdom, so he could send people across the ocean to take revenge."

"However, these are all household chores of the Lu family, and those of us who don't want to do them don't need to pay attention to them. The descendants of the Qiu family only hope that we will not touch the clay pot again, and not disturb the cleanliness of the tomb owner. Thank you in."

"That's all."

Speaking of this, Yu Ji finally stopped, but his old eyes stared at the wooden box with the word "disgusting".

Obviously this "art of disgust" is quite attractive to this old boy who is devoted to Taoism. If Wu Liang is willing to give it to him to study, he will certainly wish for it.

"I see."

Wu Liang nodded.

Now it finally explained why the remains of Duke Mu of Qiu were put in the jar. It turned out that the ashes had really been burned, but it was not a voluntary cremation, but a forced one.

Wu Liang also agrees with the speculation of the descendants of the Qiu family. If the previous Qiumu Cemetery was destroyed by the Japanese, then the possibility of it being related to Lu Yin is indeed very high.

Even Wu Liang suspects that the mysterious queen "Himiko" of the Yamatai country in the current Wa country may have some connection with Lu Yin.

"Himihu" is the originator of the ancient Japanese religion "Ghost Taoism".

And the prototype of "Ghost Taoism" is the "Taoism" in the early days of the Chinese Dynasty. Even if "Ghost Taoism" is not original to the Japanese country, then this thing must have a source, and it cannot appear out of thin air.

In addition, Lu Yin is the first stranger that Wu Liang knows to go to the Wa country and is very good at "alchemy". At the same time, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, he was able to instruct the Japanese to come to the Qi country to avenge Qiu Mugong. This is enough It shows that Lu Yin had a certain influence in the local area shortly after he went to the Wa country.

Even Xu Fu, who traveled eastward in the Qin Dynasty, was several hundred years later than Lu Yin.

However, there is no record of "Lu Yin" in the history of the Japanese kingdom, and Xu Fu is much more famous, and some unofficial histories even have detailed records of Xu Fu's family history.

Therefore, the "ghost Taoism" that appeared in this period may also be related to Xu Fu.

Wu Liang has no strong evidence to prove this point yet, so there is no way to draw a conclusion. He can only wait for the chance to go to Wa country to meet the legendary queen "Himiko" before making a decision...

But right now, the most important thing is how to get out.

Seeing that Yu Ji's thoughts were all on "disgusting impeachment", Wu Liang was not surprised, and handed him the wooden box containing "disgusting impeachment": "If you want to see it, first look at it." A few glances may also help us, let me check the 'Diamond Diamond'."

It is already very clear in "Ruhe" that not everyone can comprehend the mystery of the "art of disgust and impeachment".

Wu Liang didn't know anything about these alchemy techniques, so he didn't have any hope for himself. It would be great if Yu Ji could get some inspiration from them. At least he had another person in his tomb robbery team who could resist the magic. will lose money.

"good!"

Yu Ji couldn't wait for a long time, so he snatched the "disgusting impeachment" and began to study it hungrily.

Wu Liang, on the other hand, continued to examine the "Diamond Diamond" in his hand.

……

Regardless of the fact that "Diamond Diamond" is divided into two volumes.

But in fact, the content recorded in it is not very esoteric, and it can be regarded as a popular science book.

The first volume mainly introduces the characteristics, habits and feeding methods of "Diamond", and I feel that it is not too different from "Postpartum Care of Sows"; while the second volume mainly introduces the training and command of "Diamond", etc. aspects of things.

Here I have to mention a crucial object-copper bell!
It was the so-called "Spirit Calling Bell" that Wu Liang and others had seen before. It was the equipment used by the descendants of the Qiu family to train and direct the "Diamond Diamond".

In the second volume, the usage of the "Soul Calling Bell" is introduced in great detail, for example: shaking it twice in a row is a call, shaking it three times means resting, shaking it four times means obeying the command...

Yes, follow orders!
"Diamond Diamond" can actually understand some simple human language like a dog. This is a conditioned reflex produced by long-term training. It will do what it is told to do. It is not too smart!

of course.

I don't really understand it, but I mainly respond to some specific pronunciations.

"Old man, how do you look?"

After almost finishing watching "Diamond", Wu Liang looked back at Yu Ji.

This old boy has already done a lot of research on the ancient Qi characters, and he is very used to the ancient grammar of the Celestial Dynasty, so it is definitely much faster to read these bamboo slips than Wu Liang.

And those two volumes of "disgust and impeachment" are not too many, and he should have read them after all.

"Well, I'm afraid the old man is not talented enough..."

Yu Ji wrinkled his bitter face and let out a muffled snort, it seemed that he had gained very little.

"Then wait until you go out and study it. Everyone can come and see it. Maybe someone has the talent in this area."

Wu Liang was not surprised, nodded and said, "Now I'm going to try this 'Diamond Diamond', everyone, pay attention to the surroundings, so as not to make any mistakes, and see if there is such a strange thing here."

"promise."

The crowd responded.

Wu Liang immediately stepped forward and took the copper bell in his hand, shook it lightly twice, and then waited quietly.

Nothing seems to happen...

at this time.

"Attention! There is movement in there!"

Bai Jingjing suddenly reminded her, her beautiful eyes fixed on the pottery head not far away!
