Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 508 Immortal Valley ([-])
It was a temple full of strong shamanism, with an old and weird style, perhaps earlier than the time when shamanism appeared in Chen Zhi's mind, full of primitive flavor.

Shamanism is a primitive religion commonly believed by ancient nomadic peoples in northern China. It originated in the prosperous period of primitive matrilineal clan society. In ancient times, northern nationalities or tribes, such as Sushen, Wuji, Mohe, Jurchen, Xiongnu, Khitan, etc. all believed in it. Shamanism, they advocate nature, live in no fixed place, and take the grassland as their home.The temple in front of me looks rough and unrestrained in appearance, semicircular in shape, like a big tent.

On the top of the temple is a huge animal skull. The animal head looks like the head of a bison, but it is much larger. The head of the bull is tied with ribbons and inlaid with colorful gems.The ceiling of the temple is covered with colorful felts and large pieces of animal skins. Although it can’t be seen clearly in the dark, it seems to be covered with thick gold foil, and strings of pearls hang down like curtains. Come down and swing with the wind.

"I rely on him, what a fucking local tyrant! I finally understand that everyone in this village is a nouveau riche! No wonder they let the mutants harm them, and they love to show off their wealth so quickly..."
Fat Wei was also looking forward with a binoculars, muttering in his mouth.

At this time, Chen Zhi said softly,

"You all stay here, be careful not to make any noise, Fat Wei and I will go in and have a look...",
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he looked at Ji Ying,

"You stay here and protect everyone."

Hearing Chen Zhi's order, although Ji Ying was a little worried, she still bowed her head and agreed,

"Yes".

After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he patted Pang Wei next to him, and the two handed over the heavy things on their bodies to others, jumped onto the ground of the square with only a knife in their hands, and ran towards the temple together.

When they were running on the square, the floor tiles made of Kunlun jade on the ground began to jingle, like a series of music boards, the two of them walked very fast, and they were already running in a short while In front of the gate of the temple.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the temple, a strong scent of agarwood rushed towards him. The incense in this temple was very strong and old, and the strong scent of agarwood made people dizzy. There is also a little bit of that kind of fragrance that is similar to the incense of the gods, which is faint and still very impetuous.

With the naked eye, the appearance of this temple can no longer be seen clearly in the dark, but under the searchlights of Chen Zhi and Pang Wei, they saw colorful curtains floating in front of the gate of the temple, with bright red Jurchen mantras were written, and the bells tied with pure gold jingled in the wind~~.

The gate of the temple was ajar, as if someone had just entered it, but inside it was pitch black and nothing could be seen, which made people feel a sense of unknown fear.

"Let's go!",
Chen Zhi lowered his voice and said to Fat Wei, the two quickly got into the gate, one in front of the other, the two of them have cooperated for so long, they are already very familiar with each other, and there is no need for too much language.

The internal structure of this temple is very strange, one floor after another, one room inside another room, like a large multi-storey suite.

Chen Zhi and Pang Wei used their searchlights to illuminate various parts of the temple. There are many tall wooden shelves and sacrificial supplies, and extremely ancient shaman artifacts are placed everywhere.

Shamanism is originally a kind of primitive polytheism. They advocate obtaining power from nature, such as wind, rain, thunder, electricity, etc. are all objects of worship.

Shamans like to hold grand and splendid worship ceremonies to worship the gods, and use dance to communicate with the gods. For example, the folk dance of the gods is the continuation of the original shamanistic dance of the gods.

Shaman wizards use a variety of magic tools, and they are very sacred, such as god case, waist bell, bronze mirror, grasping drum, drum whip, etc. are all sacred and inviolable artifacts. Worship has never stopped, but because the Manchu ritual artifacts are religious items, they are generally only handed down and treasured by shamans. Money and pretending to be a trick.

The shaman artifacts placed in this temple are all rare treasures in the world. Chen Zhi shines the light on several artifacts and sees them. These artifacts are engraved with the images of gods with micro-carving techniques. The pattern, especially on the top of a palm-sized grabbing drum, is engraved with a colorful picture of the dance of the gods. About a thousand figures are carved into it, which is extremely small. Breathtaking.All these instruments, whether in terms of artistic or academic value, are priceless treasures.

In some rooms, there are also ceremonial dresses full of multi-colored feathers, with exaggerated shaman masks hanging on them, which seem to be special places for placing clothes for worshiping gods.

They walked in one suite after another, they were extremely careful along the way, and they basically didn't make any noise.

Every room here is basically about the same size, and all daily necessities are handcrafted and exquisite, and some rooms even have half-eaten meals on the table. It seems that when an accident occurs in this village, everyone is completely There is no defense, including the priests in this temple.

In this way, they walked all the way across the room into the very center of this temple, here is a smoky rotunda.

The hall is very large, with incense burners hanging around, and the strong aroma is still wafting out, permeating the hall.

Chen Zhi and Fat Wei searched around with their searchlights and found that the hall was a temple. In the middle of the hall was a statue of the mountain god Chaoha Zhanye. The statue was extremely tall and mighty. It was made of pure gold and covered with jewels. resplendent.

There are three statues of goddesses at the foot of the mountain god statues. The goddess statues are smaller than the mountain gods, but they are also covered with gold and silver. There is a tablet in front of each god statue, on which the names and sacrificial words of each god are written in Jurchen script. , and the goddess named Fokulun sits at the forefront of all the goddesses, the highest position, the whole body is white, carved with simulation techniques, and her face is lifelike.

And next to the statue of the goddess Fokulun, there is a simulated stone statue of an old man, the size of a real person, sitting there as if asleep.

This old man is kind-hearted, with a simple and friendly face. He is wearing ancient clothes and a official hat. There is a large distance from the huge statue next to him. It seems to be a statue of an ordinary human being. There is also a spiritual tablet in front of this stone statue .

"It seems that this old man has a very high status here, since he can be enshrined in the temple like other gods."

Chen Zhi said softly, and Pang Wei walked up to the stone statue, picked up the spirit tablet on it, and shined it with a searchlight, only to see that there were two lines of small regular script sealed with gold on it. Unlike other spirit tablets, this The spirit tablet turned out to be in Chinese.

The text content is:
【The spiritual seat of foster father Tang Zude】

The signature is:
[Unfilial Son, Puljijitai. Tangen Festival]

"Puljijitai Tangen? This name...,"

Chen Zhi repeated the name silently, his heart moved, he turned to look at Fat Wei,

"Could it be... a Genwa?"

When mentioning Genwa, Chen Zhi couldn't help thinking of the legend that Ning Bin said that the ancestor of the Tang family adopted the adopted son in the mountains.
