Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

Chapter 112: Half a pool of blood in the crimson jade coffin

It will be dark at this moment.

The sun has gone down, leaving only the red clouds in the sky, reflecting the mountains like blood.

In the dim light of the sky, several guys stared curiously at the crack in the banyan tree.

This old tree has a strange appearance. It has twin branches. The ancients called this phenomenon the tree of life and death or the tree of husband and wife.

Judging from the moss covered with moss, the tree trunks were originally like this.

However, in the previous sky collapse, a sky lantern should have happened to fall to the top, and the vibration caused by the explosion invisibly widened the crack a bit.

So, look through the gap now.

You can faintly see the hollow inside the tree...and a faint halo of beauty.

"Wind lantern, come on, give me that lantern. There seems to be some ancient treasure hidden in this tree."

The guy clung to the tree wall, squinting his eyes and looking in.

In addition to the purple light, there seemed to be something like a stone platform lying horizontally.

It's definitely not bad to be deliberately buried in a tree.

Maybe it was the person who ordered King Xian to hide it.

The person behind him couldn't see clearly, but he could hear the excitement in his voice. He quickly took off his backpack, took out the lantern, lit it and handed it to him.

wow-

Together with the flickering lights.

The light slowly dissipated the darkness in the tree hole.

The stone platform-like thing gradually revealed its original appearance.

The guy's pupils suddenly widened.

Even his breathing became rapid.

"Ghost day...it's a fucking coffin!"

"coffin?!"

Hearing this, the eyes of the guys behind him all lit up.

For ordinary people, seeing a coffin would be regarded as ominous, for fear of being contaminated by evil spirits and taboos.

But those who work in their profession are eating the food of the dead.

But there is another story.

It's called getting rich by seeing the coffin.

"It's my brother's, let me see it too."

"What kind of coffin is it? Could it be the coffin for the king?"

"King Xian should be buried in a tree, shouldn't he?"

"What do you know? You treat the king of a small barbarian country as the emperor?"

"It seems to be the same..."

A group of people pushed forward one after another, wanting to see what was going on in the tree hole.

Who wouldn’t want to see how much thought went into this trip all the way from Xiangxi to this place?

It's a pity that the gap between the trees is too narrow, so even with a wind lantern, you can't see clearly.

"No, I can't see clearly, so I moved out of the way and let the tree chop it down."

These words together immediately attracted countless responses.

Immediately, someone took out an axe, their eyes were burning, and they didn't look tired at all.

"Honggu, let the other brothers set up the camp first."

I saw a group of people who were very motivated.

Of course Chen Yulou would not stop him, he just whispered instructions to Miss Hong beside him.

This ancient tree has a great origin.

Buried in the crimson blood jade coffin in the tree hole is the high priest of the Dian Kingdom who built the tomb of King Xian.

Although this person was born in a small barbarian country, his knowledge is astonishing, especially his attainments in Feng Shui. Throughout the two thousand years since the pre-Qin Dynasty, he can at least be ranked in the top ten.

You know, water dragon halo is extremely famous in Feng Shui.

It is regarded as the most mysterious hole in the burial scriptures.

It belongs to the fairy cave in ancient Feng Shui.

This means that those buried in such Feng Shui caves are all immortals.

So much so that later generations of earth masters believed that the water dragon halo was just a fabrication by the ancients and that there was no such feng shui treasure cave in the world.

After all, the following Tianyin Cave, Tianzang Cave and Qilong Cave are all rare.

Not to mention the water dragon halo.

But this person was actually able to find such an immortal cave and bury King Xian in it in order to transform his body into an immortal.

These methods alone are already miraculous.

The more Chen Yulou studied the art of Feng Shui, the more he felt that this method was profound and unfathomable.

Ordinary people find it difficult to figure out one or the other throughout their lives.

Of course, opening the coffin is not only for gaining insights, but the most important ones are the stele with the pepper picture and the dragon and tiger stick.

The former is engraved with the true mausoleum genealogy.

The latter is the key to opening the door to the king's ascension to immortality.

Compared with these two treasures, the high priest's golden mask and the crimson blood jade coffin were both inferior.

"Yes, from the shopkeeper."

Miss Hong did not hesitate and immediately took the order and left.

Because this area is shaded by the canopy of the banyan tree, it forms a large open space. It doesn't even need to be tidied up. Simply tidy up the accumulated broken branches and it becomes a natural camp.

A line of workers has a clear division of labor.

Trees were cut down, camps were set up, and some people made fires to prepare meals.

"Brother Chen, although I don't know much about the art of Feng Shui, I do know one thing. The ancients always paid attention to burying themselves close to mountains and water, carrying Yang and embracing Yin. Although there are people who pay attention to sealing big trees, trees are Yin objects and rob Qi. transport."

"I've never seen anyone buried in a tree. Isn't this... a mess?"

While he was thinking quietly.

Partridge Whistle suddenly asked.

Judging from the frown on his face and the puzzled look on his face, it seems that he has been thinking about it for a long time, but he still can't get the answer.

Forget it if it is an ordinary tomb.

However, even the terrain of King Xian's tomb can be changed.

The mastery of the tomb builders in Feng Shui is absolutely unfathomable.

Why is this mistake made?

Hearing this, Chen Yulou couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

He did get to the point.

However, there was one thing that Partridge Whistle failed to calculate.

This tree coffin is not a burial mausoleum, but the high priest uses himself as the eye of the mausoleum to balance the entire Feng Shui situation.

and……

This is not outside the tomb of King Xian.

But the mountain temple.

Since ancient times, the place where temples were built must have been the main hall with upright stars and Mingshan Mountains, which dominated the feng shui.

But in doing so, it would be equivalent to destroying the originally changed terrain again.

Therefore, in order to harmonize the terrain and feng shui, there was such a tree coffin.

Partridge Whistle is just something I heard people talk about, but I don’t understand the meaning, so I only have a partial understanding of it.

At this moment, Chen Yulou did not explain too much, but opened the human skin map and pointed to the gourd pattern on the map.

"This gourd should refer to a mountain temple."

"The two echo each other, and Feng Shui can naturally maintain a balance."

Hearing this, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel his heart move.

It's like a pair of invisible hands sorting out the thoughts in my mind one by one.

"So, what does Brother Chen mean, is this tree coffin intentional?"

"good."

Chen Yulou nodded appreciatively.

To be honest, Partridge Whistle is definitely talented in Feng Shui.

Otherwise, according to the timeline in the original work, he should have gone to Wuku Temple and become a disciple of Elder Chen.

In just a few months, he learned the skill of being a gold captain.

Then he went far away from Mobei.

Looking for Xixia Blackwater City.

Now he just clicked a little bit, and Partridge Whistle could immediately understand it, and he could also get a glimpse of it.

"This theory of Feng Shui is really ever-changing and difficult to predict."

Didn't notice the strangeness in his expression.

Partridge Whistle sighed to himself.

While the two were talking.

The sky has become darker and darker.

There was silence between heaven and earth. Apart from the sound of the wind, there was no sound even the chirping of insects and birds. It was so quiet that you could clearly hear a pin dropping on the ground.

Along the perimeter of the old trees.

Tent after tent has been erected.

The bonfire was also burning.

It did dispel some of the chill.

The temperature difference between day and night is huge here.

A group of people who were idle gathered around the fire to keep warm and talk. In the flickering light of the fire, a group of people glanced at the ancient trees behind them from time to time, with expectations written on their faces.

"opened!"

"Broken!"

at last.

There was a clicking sound.

The man in charge of felling the trees cheered.

"Let's go, Brother Tao, go over and have a look."

Chen Yulou could not hesitate, so he called the partridge whistle.

The two of them were in tandem.

Stroll through the campground.

When they got closer, there were already crowds of people under the canopy, holding torches or wind lanterns in their hands, illuminating the surroundings with bright lights. Everyone consciously moved out of the way.

The two walked to the cave entrance.

Look at it intently.

I saw that a huge hole had been opened in the wall of the ancient tree.

By the light of the fire, the two of them could clearly see that the tree hole was much larger than they imagined, able to accommodate more than ten people.

but……

At this moment, their eyes were immediately attracted to the jade coffin at the bottom of the cave.

Even though he had expected it, Chen Yulou was still amazed by the form of the crimson blood jade coffin.

The coffin is almost two to three meters long and half a person tall.

It is as transparent as jade, extremely smooth and translucent.

There is a layer of milky white on the outside of the coffin wall as thin as a cicada's wing, but as you go inside, the color of the jade coffin becomes darker, as if it has been soaked in crimson blood.

Especially when illuminated by light and fire.

The color reflected from the coffin is transparent and bright, with an intoxicating brilliance.

All those present are fighting against each other.

A pair of vicious eyes.

But no one could tell what kind of material this jade coffin was made of.

The most amazing thing is.

For such a large coffin, there is no trace of patchwork and connection, which means that it is carefully carved from a single piece of jade.

As the two of them looked at each other intently, the sound of secretly swallowing saliva could be heard from outside.

"This is... bloodstone?"

"It shouldn't be. There is no such big bloodstone in this world."

"It can't be blood jade, that thing is even more rare."

A group of guys were arguing in low voices, unable to suppress their surprise in their words.

Because no matter what it is.

They all know better.

Just the jade coffin in front of me is a priceless good thing.

"Brother Dao, do you recognize it?"

Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows and looked at the Partridge Whistle beside him.

"I have been to Tibet and saw a similar kind of jade, which the locals call heavenly jade."

"It is said that it is owned by the Immortal God and can only be used by those lamas who have achieved success in spiritual practice."

Partridge Whistle's eyes moved slightly and he said calmly.

Over the years, he has traveled extensively and visited countless places.

His knowledge is far greater than that of the guys from Changsheng Mountain.

"Hidden Heavenly Jade?"

"Brother Dao really has a good eye."

Chen Yulou immediately understood what he was saying and smiled.

"Brother Chen has seen it too?"

"I heard..."

Chen Yulou shook his head.

There is no need to worry too much about the material of the jade coffin.

He took the lantern from the waiter on the side and said, "Brother Dao, let's go in and take a look together?"

"it is good!"

Partridge Whistle is also extremely curious about this crimson blood coffin.

Without any hesitation, he immediately followed.

Kunlun and Hua Ling followed closely behind.

A group of six or seven people stood in the tree hole without any feeling of crowding. However, the tree hole had been sealed for too long, and there was an indescribable smell in the air.

But for them.

As long as there is no poisonous miasma, you can be calm even in the corpse raising ground.

Approaching with a wind lantern.

Simply sweep away the accumulated dust on the jade coffin.

Only then did a few people see that not only was the coffin body in astonishing shape, but the top of the coffin was also decorated with countless intricately carved patterns.

Mandarin ducks, swan geese, foxes, rabbits, roe deer and elephants.

They are all rare birds and animals that symbolize auspiciousness and spirituality.

The four corners of the jade coffin are engraved with patterns of flowers and plants.

As for the four walls of the jade coffin, they are covered with lotus petal patterns and decorated with diamond-shaped reliefs.

The most vivid among them is.

There are also several birds with ganoderma lucidum in their mouths, fluttering their wings and ready to fly.

After talking about it for a few times, the painting becomes lifelike.

The few Mingqi Laotie present could not help but feel swayed and marveled.

Not to mention that it is an ancient coffin from the Dian Kingdom period of more than 2,000 years.

I'm afraid most people would think it was the tomb coffin of a prince or nobleman from the pre-Qin and Han dynasties?

No matter the style or decoration.

Almost all are Han Chinese style.

Partridge Whistle's heart moved slightly, and he even began to wonder whether this so-called high priest might be a Han.

After all, during the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Dian Kingdom had already been annexed and included in Yizhou County.

After that, the Dian Kingdom completely disappeared in the long river of history.

It does not seem strange that Han people entered the Dian Kingdom.

"Kunlun, open the coffin!"

Chen Yulou's fingers lightly traced the coffin body.

An astonishing chill floated through the air.

Such transparent and flawless jade is rare to see, let alone cold jade, so it is no wonder that it is used as the coffin body.

He immediately stopped hesitating and shouted softly at the tall figure opposite.

Kunlun responded, leaned down, stretched out his fingers and groped along the bottom of the coffin lid for a while.

Soon, his eyes lit up, "The shopkeeper is not sealed."

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Chen Yulou's heart dropped.

Immediately called a few guys to work together.

I saw them standing side by side along the jade coffin, holding the coffin lid with both hands and working together.

The coffin lid wasn't that heavy.

It's just that it's been left here for too long.

The coffin body and lid have almost become one.

But with the combined efforts of a group of people, the coffin lid was quickly lifted gently.

only……

Just exposed a gap.

An indescribable pungent smell surged up, filling the entire tree hole almost instantly.

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous. Keep carrying the coffin."

Seeing the expressions of several people change drastically, Chen Yulou just shouted in a deep voice.

He knew full well that it was the smell of blood in the coffin, not miasma.

Hearing what the shopkeeper said, the few people no longer had any worries and continued to open the coffin with a calm look on their faces.

As the gap gets bigger and bigger.

Rays of bright red light also refracted from the coffin.

Seeing this situation, everyone subconsciously looked at it.

But then... his expression changed.

"Wait, it's blood!"

"Oh my god, why is the coffin full of blood?"

"The blood coffin...couldn't it be a demon buried in it?"

I saw that the entire jade coffin, as far as the eye could see, was filled with thick, red liquid that looked like blood.

No one has ever seen such a strange situation.

For a moment, all the waiters felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and the bone-chilling cold air rushed directly to their heads.

If it weren't for the few people in the shop who remained motionless, they would have fled long ago.

It is true that they seek wealth.

But there must be a life flower.

Don't talk about them.

Even Kunlun, Hua Ling, the old foreigner and Miss Hong had their brows furrowed and their heartstrings tense, staring intently at the depths of the sloshing blood.

It seemed like... some monster would come out of it.

"Don't be so panicked, Mingtang Jinjing, remove the aura of heaven and earth to control the Feng Shui star position."

"If it's really something from the evil sect, then why else would King Xian ask for an immortal?"

Seeing that Partridge Whistle also pressed his right hand twenty times on his waist.

The atmosphere inside and outside the tree cave is just like before the mountain rain comes, so solemn that one can hardly breathe.

Chen Yulou shook his head, smiled, and joked.

"Shopkeeper, boss, isn't this really blood?"

Red Girl suppressed her nausea and asked, pointing to the scarlet liquid in the half-coffin.

"Have you ever heard of gold-mercury water? This thing is similar to it. It is a method used by the ancients for antisepsis, but the color is indeed a bit weird."

Chen Yulou's five senses were astonishing.

I had already noticed a faint medicinal smell in that pungent smell.

It seems that it was collected from the great medicine of Zhelong Mountain and concocted using witchcraft and secret methods.

"Take the Exploring Yin Claw!"
