People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 310 Temple
Then a few people tacitly made jokes, causing the crooked building to go astray completely, and they sort of skipped the talk.

After a short rest, everyone continued to head towards the depths of the worm valley.

As they continued to go deeper, more and more traces were left by humans, and some collapsed stone statues, stone figures, etc. could be seen from time to time.

These are obviously the stone carvings on both sides of the sacred path of the king's tomb. From this, it can be seen that the basic system of offering the king's tomb is the same as other royal tombs, and the sacred path in front of the tomb was specially built for future generations to go to Minglou to worship and sacrifice.

"King Xian may not have thought that not long after his death, his subjects, including his hometown, the ancient Dian Kingdom, would be included in the territory of the Han Dynasty. This also caused him to spend a lot of manpower and material resources. , can only be sealed in the depths of this dark valley." Seeing these stone carvings, Hu Bayi said with some regret.

Wang Kaixuan answered: "What you said is wrong, don't you still have our kindness, who came to visit regardless of difficulties and obstacles?"

Hu Bayi said, what you are for is known to passers-by, so why visit.

But he didn't say this, because everyone is the same, why should the boss make things difficult for the second.

After walking for three or four hours, they came to the ruins of a ruined wall. Not surprisingly, it was the legendary first dike wall,

But now there is only a rammed-earth stone platform that is only more than three meters behind and two meters high. It is covered with overgrown weeds. It doesn't look like a city wall, but more like a green mound.

The wreckage was mixed among the jungles in the deep valley, if they were not careful, they might have just passed by.

In order to further confirm that this is the embankment wall, Hu Bayi stepped forward and swept it twice with an engineer shovel, trying to clean up the weeds and green moss so that he could see more clearly.

But I didn't expect that this sweep would not matter. Hundreds of small tree lizards the size of fingers emerged from the cracks in the ruined walls.

The body surface of these little guys is green, and if you don't look at the blood-red eyes and tongue, they are exactly the same as the surrounding plants.

Hu la la so many tree lizards sprang out, startling everyone, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, who were closer, swung the things in their hands and slapped many small tree lizards into flesh cake.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan quickly went up to hold the two of them down, and said, "Okay, these little things don't hurt people, so there's no need to make trouble with them."

This thing is probably at the bottom of the valley, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it, and the smell of blood is too strong, which may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Look!"

After Chen Ziyan comforted the two of them, he turned his head and heard Xue Liyang's voice.

Following Shirley Yang's line of sight, they found that the escape route of these panicked little tree lizards was very strange.

Taking their place as the center, almost all the little tree lizards fled towards the valley, and the rest climbed up the rock walls on both sides, but none of them went deep into the valley.

It's as if there is some terrifying existence there, so that the creatures living in this valley dare not go one step further.

Ding Sitian thought for a while and said, "It's like a place of death in the depths of the valley. The perception of animals is much more sensitive than that of humans. It must be very dangerous inside."

Hu Bayi climbed up to the rammed earth stone platform in front of him, stood on it and looked into the valley, wanting to take advantage of the height to see the situation inside.

Wang Kaixuan guessed: "Is it the poisonous miasma inside?"

He felt that it must be the type that can make animals so fearful and attack indiscriminately.

Chen Ziyan recalled it for a while, and felt that it was almost time to get there, so he said: "What the fat man said is very likely. Looking at the situation here, there are even few insects. It is estimated that there will be even fewer insects. This means that there are probably insects inside." Toxic substances, for the sake of safety, we will take care of safety on the next road.”

He didn't say anything about being ready at any time, and he tended to take preventive measures in advance in the face of such things.

No matter how thorough the preparations are in advance, there may not be enough time to face emergencies.

No one objected to this. Although everyone is not afraid of death, who would not cherish his own life.

Hu Bayi used the compass to make some calculations, and after confirming the next direction, they headed towards the left side of the residual wall.

The valley inside is much wider than in the front, and it is no longer possible to imagine the unobstructed view as before.

After advancing for nearly a hundred meters, they saw a section of bare ground, which was extremely unusual in this vine-covered valley.

"I think I know why those snakes, insects, rats and ants don't dare to come over." Hu Bayi stared at the ground for a while, and said thoughtfully.

"Do you think this is the way of breaking insects?" Shirley Yang also understood this, and asked after hearing this.

"Let's see." Hu Bayi did not give an accurate answer, but squatted down and dug a shallow pit with an engineering shovel, wanting to check the material structure in the soil.

The insect-breaking path is a setting to prevent insects and ants from causing damage to the mausoleum.

The main method is to bury the long-lasting insect repellent secret medicine near the main tomb. Generally speaking, mercury and sulfur are buried, and Dumasan, Xunhuangjiao, Lazy Bodhi and other things are added to reconcile, so that the insect repellent can be repelled. The effect lasts for thousands of years.

This kind of setting is most common in the tombs of emperors in the Han Dynasty, and the most typical one is Maoling.

"But it should be far away from King Xian's tomb, how could there be a broken insect path?" Ding Sitian asked puzzled.

She doesn't know much about Duan Chong Dao, but she knows that it is far from Xianwang's Tomb.

Hu Bayi thought for a while and replied: "From what we've seen along the way, we can see that Xian Wang is proficient in thaumaturgy and is also good at changing the Feng Shui pattern, and such a large-scale tomb does not only have requirements for the situation of the main tomb. , the same is true for the nearby auxiliary points.”

"If the star positions of these auxiliary acupoints are changed well, it will definitely have the effect of adding wings to the tiger and entering the water of the dragon in the main tomb."

Hearing this, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but said: "Although King Xian's behavior is contemptible, his Feng Shui attainments are still very powerful."

Hu Ba nodded: "Since ancient times, in the secret art of Feng Shui, the most difficult thing is to change the pattern. This requires a macroscopic understanding of the universe, mountains and rivers, and the shifting of stars. Moreover, the workload of this kind of work is not something ordinary people can do. Yes, only those princes and princes who have a separate regime and hold power in their hands have the strength to build such a large-scale construction project."

In his family biography "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Fengshui Secret Art", the "Hua" scroll describes the art of changing wind and water. Among them, the "Yilong Jing" records that the dragon veins in the world change their shape, change their shape, and change their shape. To change wind into water, at least nine related acupoints around the arterial veins are needed.

Only by transforming all nine acupoints can we ensure that Fengshui locks are tightly wrapped and protected, and the momentum of the acupoints will not be broken for thousands of years.

"I can't see the others for the time being, but the nine-curved loop facing the mountain bank is very clear." After Hu Bayi briefly talked about the key points inside, he made such a conclusion.

Chen Ziyan nodded lightly. He had only a half-knowledge about these things. He could understand most of Hu Bayi's technical terms, but if you asked him to read them, he couldn't see any feng shui tricks.

But he knew that Hu Bayi had deduced something through this worm-breaking way, so he asked: "Old Hu, what do you think of the feng shui of this worm valley now?"

"It stretches and twists and turns, and in its deep place, the hills on both sides are messy. The 'water dragon vein' that originally traveled through the valley will appear to be indistinguishable from the subject and the object, and it is impossible to distinguish the true from the false. There is no sense of dignity and humbleness, but Xian Wang rebuilt a nine-curve circle towards the mountain bank at the lock of the dragon vein, which can be said to have changed the world in an instant!" Hu Bayi said at the end deep in his eyes Full of wonder.

Such a method is really amazing!
Wang Kaixuan was very confused. He shook his head and asked, "I mean Old Hu, can you stop using these professional words? Just say where we should go next."

Hu Bayi was not annoyed by Wang Kaixuan's words, and just said: "I didn't think of it before, but after seeing the broken insect path, I am [-]% sure that there must be nine similar buildings in this valley." Shrines, ancestral halls or temples, and the toad sign we are looking for is one of them."

Wang Kaixuan understood it this time, and immediately said: "Then what are we waiting for, let's find it."

He felt that instead of analyzing here, it would be better to go to the field to confirm that as long as the toad logo really corresponds to a certain building, it would not confirm Hu Bayi's words from the side.

Wang Kaixuan's words are rough and reasonable, so everyone agrees that the facts are better than anything else.

After leaving the first worm-breaking path, they soon discovered the second and third worm-breaking path.

After all, the vegetation in this deep valley is dense, and there is no grass growing on the surface of this broken insect path, which can be seen at a glance, so it is not difficult to find it.

And when it came to the third broken worm road, the terrain of the valley was already extremely open, from which it could be seen that the worm valley was in the shape of a trumpet.

But when they got here, they had to be more careful, because there was already a faint mist of smoke in front of them.

Fortunately, everyone is wearing protective clothing, so there is no need to pay too much attention to these.

The deeper you go, the thicker the white mist and the lower the visibility.

More importantly, there was a dead silence in the depths of the white mist. Not only were there no birds and insects, but even the vegetation began to sparse.

This shows that they are now very close to the poisonous miasma.

Wang Kaixuan glanced at the miasma in front of him, and said, "Why don't we just ignore him and just rush over. Anyway, we are wearing protective clothing, so even if it is really poisonous miasma, we can't do anything to it."

Seeing that the visibility here is getting lower and lower, he has no hope of finding the temple site.

Hu Bayi couldn't help but said: "I'm wondering if you're missing a thread in your brain, let's not talk about the scope of the poisonous miasma, but what to do if the poisonous miasma is corrosive, our protective clothing is fine. No matter how powerful you are, there will be a moment when you can't resist, and I'm afraid you won't be able to run if you want to run."

There is another point that Hu Bayi didn't say, that is, they are all human beings, and as human beings, they eat, drink, and scatter, and they can't do these things when they are in a poisonous miasma. These are all points that need to be considered.

Wang Kaixuan knew that his method was unreliable after being told by him, so he could only walk ahead resentfully and stop talking.

At this time, they had come to the foot of the mountain on the left side of the valley.

It was already some distance away from Snake Creek, almost in the middle of the three broken worm paths.

When everyone was walking, suddenly a bush next to them rose automatically without wind.

When such a thing happened at this time, it immediately aroused everyone's vigilance. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan even pulled the bolts, and it seemed that they would shoot directly as long as there was a situation.

On the contrary, Shirley Yang stopped everyone after looking carefully, and said, "This should be a dancing plant. It is a very unique plant. It usually looks listless, but once there are creatures passing by, it will put on a pose." dance, has the ability to hear the sound and move, and does no harm to people."

And after she finished speaking, the large piece of dancing grass began to tremble one after another as if in response.

But as they trembled, two clumps gradually separated, revealing half of a big fiery red gourd in the middle.

When everyone got closer, they found that the fiery red gourd should be carved out of stone, more than one meter high, smooth all over, and brightly colored as if it had just been finished.

Wang Kaixuan saw that the gourd was not only very vivid in shape, but also so gorgeous in color, he couldn't help but move in his heart, walked to the side and made a mark, it seemed that he planned to take it away if he had the chance.

Chen Ziyan didn't say anything after seeing it. He was also very interested in this gourd, and it would be great if he could bring it back.

But before the Wang Kaixuan mark was finished, he suddenly exclaimed: "Come and see!"

Everyone hurried to his side, looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that there was a temple covered with rattan at the place where the gourd was facing.

This temple built on the mountain looks like a mountain temple, and it should be built on the central axis of the mountain behind it, but now it looks extremely dilapidated after years of time.

It can be said that it is already a miracle that the decayed wooden frame has not collapsed until now.

"Hey, what do you mean by putting a big gourd in front of this temple?" Wang Kaixuan asked curiously, looking back and forth between the fiery red gourd and the mountain temple.

"It may be related to the mountain gods. In ancient times, people believed in the five elements. There are gods in charge of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as mountains and rivers." Chen Ziyan answered briefly.

This kind of question needs to consider many factors, but the answer cannot be separated from what he said.

Wang Kaixuan nodded: "Oh, that's it."

They didn't linger too much on this topic. Seeing that although the temple was in danger, but there was no sign of collapse, several people stepped into it.

However, in order to prevent any creatures from being deposited inside, everyone did not rush in, but divided them into several waves with vigilance.

According to the information they have received, there is likely to be an entrance here, which can lead to the entrance of the secret passage of King Xian's tomb.

This is also the reason why they deliberately searched for this place, so they had to go inside and search for it.

But Jin will not enter indiscriminately, and his own safety is more important.
