Yin Changsheng

Chapter 99
The quicksand moves very fast, and a lot of broken sand has overflowed from the cracks in the surrounding stones. Seeing this, Jiang Li immediately dragged me to the stone door that couldn't be opened, and said, "It's too late."

He Tou'er also quickly followed.

boom.

Before the stone gate was opened, the other two gates were blasted open by quicksand. The quicksand poured in instantly and quickly spread towards us.

He Touer was shocked, and hurriedly said to Jiang Li, "Jiang Daochang, open this stone gate quickly, or we will really be buried here."

Jiang Lien said, turned to face the stone gate, took out the dharma sword and broke it into two pieces with a bang, then held it with the other hand, and directly inserted it into the stone gate with a click.

Mr. He and I were dumbfounded.

Most of the dharma swords are made of copper, and this stone gate is so hard that it is impossible to insert it in. When we were in a daze, Jiang Li squeezed the two sections of the dharma sword and pushed the heavy stone gate with great difficulty.

The quicksand was getting closer and closer to us, and the stone gate made a creaking sound and began to move.

Jiang Li clenched his teeth tightly, and the veins on his forehead and neck were exposed. At the last moment when the quicksand approached us, Jiang Li suddenly roared. The stone door suddenly opened, and the dust on the stone door fell. We waved our hands to disperse the dust immediately.

Jiang Li glanced back, grabbed me and He Touer, and dragged him into the stone gate, "Let's go."

The three of them entered the stone gate at the same time, and the quicksand had already reached the stone gate, but the stone gate also slammed shut at the last moment.

We looked back at Shimen, slapped our chests and said fearfully, "It's dangerous, if we take another step, we will be buried by those quicksands."

Jiang Li turned around to check the structure of this place before us. Seeing that we were very relaxed, he reminded us, "Don't get too excited. Although we haven't been swallowed by quicksand yet, this is the dead end of Guiguzi Tomb. It is unknown whether we can get out alive." .”

Jiang Li's words immediately made us nervous again, and we turned around at the same time to investigate the place.

This place is much larger than the previous triangular stone chamber, it is circular, about twenty meters in diameter, and about ten meters high.

There are ten coffins placed in all directions in the stone chamber, surrounded by nine thick stone pillars.

What is horrifying is that the tomb has been built for thousands of years, but the lamps above the nine stone pillars are still burning.

Directly opposite us, there is a step up, and at the end of the step is also a stone gate, which should be the exit.

As the captain of the archaeological team, He Touer is very sensitive to these things. When he saw these coffins and the burning nine lanterns, he was overjoyed as if he had discovered a new world. The lamp, I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect that there is such a long-burning lamp, which is a milestone discovery in the archaeological world."

After He Tou'er finished speaking, he was about to walk towards the stone pillar, wanting to study the ever-burning lamp, but was stopped by Jiang Li, "Don't move."

He Tou'er immediately stopped moving.

Jiang Li pointed to the stone slabs on the ground and said, "These stones are of different sizes, and they are arranged irregularly. This kind of situation will never happen in such a sophisticated ancient tomb. Ninety percent of them are traps set up by Guiguzi. If you make a wrong step, you will be doomed." .”

"Where is King Wu of Zhou?" I asked, although I was afraid that King Wu of Zhou would appear in this place, but I was vaguely looking forward to seeing him, not for other reasons, just to see, this created a dynasty, created the underworld hell What kind of person is this person?

However, there is nothing else in the stone room except the coffin, the ever-burning lamp, and the steps. I thought it would be the same as when we saw the Walking Corpse King before, and he would be locked with chains, but the situation here is completely different.

Jiang Li also looked around and said, "The most likely one is among the ten coffins. You can't touch that coffin unless you have to. I know you're curious about King Wu of Zhou, but once you meet someone like that, it might be The last side."

I said oh.

He Touer's eyes still stay on the eternal lamp. He is full of curiosity about the eternal lamp. He has dealt with these things for so many years. In his eyes, the eternal lamp has the same status as "Against Yin and Yang" in our eyes. If I see "Against Yin and Yang" on the coffin in front of me now, but I can't take it, I will also have this kind of look.

Jiang Li glanced at He Tou'er and said to him, "There is no ever-burning lamp in this world."

Tou'er He didn't believe it, because the example was right in front of him, pointing to the lamps on the nine stone pillars, he said, "Isn't that the ever-burning lamp, which has been burning for thousands of years and has not been extinguished."

Jiang Li said, "Its principle is the same as that of will-o'-the-wisps. It is produced by the burning of white phosphorus. There was no oxygen in the tomb before, but when we came in, we put oxygen in, and the white phosphorus ignited itself when it came into contact with oxygen. From our point of view , These nine lamps have been burning for thousands of years, in fact, they were only burning when we came in just now."

Jiang Li's words dimmed He Tou'er's expectant eyes in an instant. After careful consideration, it seemed that this was indeed the case, and he said angrily, "I thought there really was an everlasting everlasting lamp as recorded in ancient books. Well, it seems to be just a conjecture."

The secret of the ever-burning lamp was punctured by Jiang Li, and the coffin could not be moved, so He Touer had no hope. Now he just wanted to go out early, looked at the messy stone slabs in front of him and said to Jiang Li, "Jiang Daochang, the one in front The road is extremely dangerous, and the road behind is blocked again, how do we get out now?"

Jiang Li said, "Have you seen the writing on the coffin? That's the only clue left by Guiguzi to leave."

It was only then that we noticed the strong characters engraved on the coffin. I didn't know the characters, but He Tou'er recognized them at a glance, "Dao, what clue is this?"

"One yin and one yang are the Tao, the three talents of heaven, earth and man are the Tao, the four phenomena of the south, east, north and west are the Tao, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth are the Tao, the fifty avenues, the four nines of the sky, escape one, and there is a ray of life in it. There are a total of ten coffins here, Guiguzi is a Taoist family, and Taoism regards nine as the ultimate technique, but there is one more coffin here. Find the extra coffin, and you will find your way out."

I said, "Every coffin is exactly the same, how can I find the extra coffin."

Jiang Li smiled, "The clues are on the stone slabs on the ground. Yin and Yang are the way. The stone slabs on the ground seem to be irregular, but they contain Tai Chi, Sancai, and Sixiang, etc., as long as you find out what can The stone slabs that make up Tai Chi, if the coffin is on top of Tai Chi, it can be ruled out."

The knowledge in this is too profound, I naturally don't understand it, I have to rely on Jiang Li.

After Jiang Li finished talking to us, he immediately squatted down and checked the stone slab on the ground. After looking at it for a while, he took out a few copper coins from his body, tied them with a red string, and threw them on the slate in front of him.

After only using six copper coins, he stood up and said, "Tai Chi is formed."

I looked at the six copper coins he threw out, they could indeed be connected to form a Taiji pattern, and on this pattern, there was really only one coffin, so I hurriedly said, "Master, you are right, it is that coffin. "

Jiang Lien said, and then began to take out copper coins to find the pattern of the three talents.

He Touer and I waited here, we were quite bored, so we squatted down.

After spending nearly three hours, Jiang Li excluded the coffins that were above the three talents, four images, five elements, Liuhe, seven stars, eight trigrams, and nine palaces.

In the end, there are still two coffins left that have not been ruled out, but it will be soon. Just find out which of the two remaining coffins is in the pattern of ten directions, and which one can be ruled out.

But Jiang Li stopped at this moment, stood up and looked serious.

Looking at Jiang Li's expression, He Tou'er and I had a premonition that something was wrong, so we hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Li said, "The remaining two coffins are both on the ten-square pattern. One of the two coffins is the coffin where Guiguzi's clothes are placed, and the other is the coffin that is sealed with things related to King Wu of Zhou. It cannot be ruled out. , can only rely on luck."

He Touer asked, "Then what should we do?"

"Fate." Jiang Li said as he took out a copper coin from his body and threw it straight up. "If it's the front, choose the one on our side."

This method was used by Jiang Li before in the Nine Palace Formation below our village, but this time it is obviously much more dangerous. If the heavens do not favor us, we may die here.
