Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 38 Jin Xiangyu is hard to buy
The iron hand came towards us. Although he was injured, every step was very steady. Hearing such clear footsteps, my heart also twitched with it. Because of worry, Munro's face twisted, This guy really has nothing to do with the living.

That guy is approaching step by step, I clenched the Tibetan knife in my hand, the sweat in the vest groove is sliding down the vest groove, as long as that guy appears, I will take action as soon as possible...

"Hey, let's go." The other voice suddenly shouted: "Go out quickly and get your arm, I really want to be an iron hand, I'm suspicious all day long, I'll go down first, and hold your hand yourself."

The man took a deep breath and went down first. Iron Hand finally turned around and left. After hearing his footsteps going away, I breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Mengluo again, this kid's hair was covered in sweat Wet, I couldn't help laughing out loud: "To the living man, you are more courageous than a mouse, but you are not so afraid of the strange things in the pond."

The corner of Munro's mouth twitched, and he could only utter one sentence: "There is a specialization in surgery."

I was suddenly dumbfounded, well, there is a specialization in surgery, there is nothing wrong with that, no matter what you say, now the danger is temporarily lifted, Lao Jiu's body leaned against the stone wall, and suddenly moved, I asked: "What's wrong?"

Lao Jiu had already stood up, looking at the stone suspiciously: "I always feel something is wrong, as if something was touching me just now."

I smelled it: "It's not touching you, it's because the stone is soft."

I sniffed it carefully again, and I couldn't hide the smile on my face: "Old Jiu, we are not empty-handed this time."

Lao Jiu looked over suspiciously, at this moment, the sound of explosions came from below, Lao Jiu said in a deep voice: "They are leaving, it seems that they are ready."

The movement below didn't last long. When I felt the silence, I said: "Their movements are very quick, and they seem to be well-trained."

Lao Jiu didn't agree with my words. He stood up and looked towards the steps. When it was over, he just smiled: "Lin Tianyi, what's the matter with this stone? My sense of smell has begun to recover. It seems to be made of chocolate." fragrance?"

This guy finally found out: "Yes, it's hard to buy Jin Xiangyu with a thousand dollars, but in front of our eyes, there is such a big piece of Jin Xiangyu!"

We two congratulated each other by high-fiving, Meng Luo was still confused, Lao Jiu said: "Meng Luo, this time I have to count you as a part of it, if it weren't for you, we would have died in the pond."

"What the hell is this?" Monroe asked stupidly.

"Didn't you hear clearly? This is Jin Xiangyu." I said angrily, "Have you made it clear just now?"

Munro said "Oh": "Is it worth it?"

"Quite, it's hard to buy Jinxiangyu. Do you think it's worth it?" I squatted down and looked at this piece of Jinxiangyu carefully. How to move this piece of Jinxiangyu, Lao Jiu couldn't wait to start working, he started knocking directly, and knocked off several pieces in a row. The touch of this Jinxiangyu is very delicate, and it feels very warm when touched. While looking at me: "Don't be too greedy, it's not realistic to take the whole piece away, firstly, our car space is limited, secondly, it's too conspicuous, if it attracts suspicion, we won't be able to eat it, and we can take it away. How much is how much."

If you give up, you get something, and if you get something, you have to give up. I still understand this truth. Lao Jiu and I worked together to knock off large pieces and stuff them into the backpack. In order to prevent the backpack from being too eye-catching, try to stuff it down, Munro Just watching us do it silently, and helping us to pack it up. After the full load, we came to the stone steps, listened to the movement below, and made sure that those people had left. Then we breathed a sigh of relief and walked down cautiously. Find out where the golden gong is stored.

Below the steps is an open space, about the size of a football field, but the place is not small. The ground is covered with the same granite slabs as the outside, and there is a platform in the middle, which looks like an altar. It's no stranger to him. I've seen it in the mummies in the desert. This altar divides the open space into two. There is a tree on one side, and twelve golden gongs should be stored on the other side.

There is a brazier hanging on the stone wall of this place, and it has already been lit. It must have been lit by the Iron Hands. Like the early sun coming out of the clouds, he looked around happily.

Although the twelve golden gongs have been taken away, their original positions can still be seen, because there are twelve clear imprints on the ground, and there is actually a tree opposite the twelve imprints. Unfortunately, The tree has withered, Lao Jiu looked at it, then suddenly lay down on the ground, and listened: "There is no sound of water, it seems that the tree is dead, if it were me, I would definitely build a simple water circulation system underground. "

"The tree is dead, and the game is broken." Meng Luo said: "This place is the same as the tomb in the desert. It is the Qianlong drinking water cave. It was all defeated by the tree's death. Here, the twelve golden gongs are located on the west side. Jin, this tree is located in the east, and it belongs to fire. The dragon's head is facing east and facing the sun, and the sores on the horns will turn into fire. The position of this tree is just above the dragon's head. It has dried up, it is like a sore on the head of the dragon, and the drinking hole of Qianlong has been broken."

Lao Jiu and I looked at each other, this is also a game, isn't it?When I was still thinking about it, Meng Luo suddenly walked to the side of the tree, stretched out his hand and pulled the exposed tree root, pulled it out a little, you can see the mud below, the ground is still wet, this tree was planted directly on the soil The roots of the tree are rotted. According to common sense, even if there is a water circulation system to ensure water, but without light, the tree will not live long. Therefore, the person who planted the tree in the first place Should have thought of that.

But how long do trees live?The growth of plants is sometimes beyond imagination, the longest-lived tree in the world, according to Swedish scientists, they found a Norway spruce that has grown for nearly 8000 years in the northern part of the country, and think it is still alive in the world today The oldest tree of .

I heard that Meng Luo mentioned some things about the Fengshui bureau, and the tree is also one of the necessary elements. If this tree lived longer, like the spruce, wouldn't the Fengshui bureau still work until now?
Thinking of this, I was amazed at this Qianlong drinking water cave again. Unfortunately, this tree is dead, which is an indisputable fact.

Meng Luo wiped off the mud on his hands, and sighed: "The yellow mud gushes out, the dragon's blood is exhausted, the hole is broken, the dragon flies up, and the yellow mud is the mud under the tree, which symbolizes the dragon's blood. Dragon blood gushes out. This place is no longer The dragon's lair is here, the descendants of the people who were originally buried here were either rich or famous, but now, I'm afraid that his descendants will suffer bad luck for several lifetimes."

The person buried here?Lao Jiu and I looked at each other again. There seems to be no tomb here. There are twelve golden gongs, a sacrificial altar, and Qianlong drinking water cave. This is where Xiang Yu trained his troops.
It is said that before Xiang Yu raised his troops, he lived in seclusion in this area and was sheltered by the local villagers.After that, Xiang Yu recruited [-] Jiangdong disciples to train soldiers nearby, cast twelve golden gongs, and practiced day and night. Two golden gong characters.For more than two thousand years, people have found Xiang Yu's inscribed characters on the mountain from time to time, but so far no one has been able to unlock the meaning of the characters.

This point is even mentioned in the local county chronicles. "Kangxi Kuaiji County Chronicles" has recorded Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew: "Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu killed Yin Tong, the head of Kuaiji, and raised troops in Kuaiji." The book said The original Xiang Ji is Xiang Yu himself, and the Kuaiji mentioned is nearby, and the army may even be raised in this village.

However, when I was thinking about it, Lao Jiu asked, "Lin Tianyi, what are you thinking about?"

"Let me ask you, when those people moved the golden gong just now, how did the gong sound?" I asked.

"It's true that there are sounds, but it's not loud and crisp." After Lao Jiu finished speaking, his complexion changed suddenly: "Lin Tianyi, what do you want to say?"

"If the twelve golden gongs are used to transmit signals during the march, the movement may not be too small." I said, "Don't you think it's strange? If they are used for marching and fighting, why don't you take them away? stay?"

Lao Jiu was led by human thinking: "Could it be that it's just an excuse to use it for marching?"

"Think about it, since the gong has been left behind, why didn't it be given to the villagers directly, why did it have to be buried here? There is also the Juyin Pond, which is clearly to prevent people from coming here, which is completely contradictory. Even outside The strange characters on the mountain are probably just confusing." I said: "Meng Luo, you said this is the Qianlong drinking water cave, the so-called east wood, west gold, and gold are these gongs, which are actually one of the components of the Feng Shui Bureau. One, right?"

Lao Jiu understood: "Lin Tianyi, you are really there. That's right, Xiang Yu wants to raise troops. In order to protect his own situation, he set up a Fengshui bureau here in advance and found this Qianlong drinking water cave. The characters on the mountain are just fabricated. The purpose is to confuse the public, his real purpose is to place the ancestor's grave in this Fengshui cave!"

Monrogal nodded: "That's right, it's basically like this. Unfortunately, as I said just now, this round was a defeat, so it didn't work."

"Isn't that one of the reasons why Xiang Yu didn't achieve great things?" I asked Meng Luo, "How much influence do you think the Feng Shui Bureau can have on a person's future?"

"I don't know," Munro said.

Well, if you don’t know, you don’t know. I looked at the two people and said, “There is only one way to know if my guess is right.”

Lao Jiu and Monro said in unison: "Find the tomb."
