Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 69
When I saw his gaze, I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart.It's not that I don't want to help, but that as soon as I heard the situation, I knew there was nothing I could do.But why did Guangtou Wei tell Feng Guishou that I have a way to save people?Could it be that there is something hidden in this that I don't know about?

Even though the person surnamed Zhao told me many things at the beginning, many things were not clear, and he obviously kept some things from me. Baldy Wei obviously knew something.Thinking about it this way, I couldn't help but think about the things my father Chen Ci handed over to Old Man Zhao, and that damned curse.If Wei Guangtou and the others were really killed, then just me and Tofu, two rookies who only have theories and no actual combat experience, will surely fail this operation.

At that time, not only will he not be able to get what Old Man Zhao is holding, but the clue to the curse will probably be cut off.

Tofu was still angry because of Feng Guishou's harsh words, I weighed it in my heart, and I had already made up my mind, so I patted Tofu on the shoulder, motioned him to calm down first, turned around and smiled at Feng Guishou: "Don't be angry too , I am not interested in being a hero. But Wei Nanjing is still my God of Wealth. No matter what I say, I will not die. This fight, we brothers are also part of it, when it is time to contribute , of course we have to work hard."

Hearing the words, Feng Guishou probably didn't want to quarrel with us, his face calmed down, and said: "Since that's the case, what more can we say, let's go save people quickly."

I said: "I haven't finished talking yet, why are you in a hurry? I mean, man, if I can save it, of course I am bound to do so. But I have never even heard of the ghost labyrinth. How do you ask me to save it? "

Feng Guishou hissed when he heard the words, looked at my tofu suspiciously, frowned, and said, "You really don't know? Aren't you a descendant of Chen Siyuan?"

"I am a descendant of Chen Siyuan, what does it matter?"

Feng Guishou looked at me for a while, wondering what he was thinking about, and it made people feel uncomfortable. If he was not called by Guangtou Wei, I really don't want to have more contact with such a person.Immediately afterwards, I heard Feng Guishou said: "The ghost king Chen Siyuan is the apprentice of Bai Lao Si. This Bai Lao Si is proficient in flying knives, and has made countless graves in his life. There must be his reason for the Ghost Shadow Labyrinth, think about it carefully, didn't the Ghost King teach you some special skills?"

Tofu knew more about my life experience, and said after hearing the words: "What special skills, besides telling him stories, his grandfather taught him to farm."

Feng Guishou didn't believe it, and said: "Bring horns in the south and rice in the north, didn't these ghost kings teach you?" Tofu was a little confused, and said: "What horns, what rice? What are you doing with these things?" In fact, the so-called ox horns in the south and rice in the north are a means to ward off evil spirits.Digging graves is dealing with the dead, and it is said that you often walk by the water, so your shoes will inevitably get wet.Therefore, it is not uncommon to encounter ghosts and zongzi.

Tomb robbers who dig mushrooms like to bring some objects to ward off evil spirits or subdue ghosts. Among them, buffalo horns are the most widely spread ones, and there are also black donkey hooves, but generally people in Shaanxi use black donkey hooves, and other places Yes, most still like to bring buffalo horns.

The buffalo is an animal that lives in water, and the five elements belong to water and are Yin.Bring buffalo horns, which are said to cover up the yang energy on your body, so that ghosts and zongzi in the tomb cannot see you.And Beidaimi refers to the tomb robbers of the northern sect. When digging mushrooms, they will put a bag of glutinous rice in their pockets, and throw them out when they encounter unclean things, which can drive away ghosts.

These are all the methods summed up by the tomb robbers to deal with zongzi. Feng Guishou obviously thought that my grandfather, as the king of ghosts, must have one or two unique skills to deal with ghosts, and wanted me to use this to crack the ghost maze.

As for my grandfather, it is true that these methods of exorcising ghosts have not been handed down, but after what Tofu said just now, I remembered something. My grandfather once told me a story called "Patting the Shoulder".It is said that in the countryside, when a child is walking at night, an invisible ghost hand will suddenly stretch out from behind and pat him on the shoulder.

Being slapped by a ghost, the child's soul will be shocked out of his body. At this time, the adults in the family will use another method to call back the soul that was slapped on the shoulder.

It is said that there are three fires in the human body, which are located on the top of the head and shoulders, and the three souls are also located in these three positions.Some ghosts with a lot of resentment can directly pat people on the shoulder to extinguish one of the fires. Once the fire on the shoulder is extinguished, the Yang Soul will be disturbed.It is the same reason to stick shadow puppets on the body.

After being slapped on the shoulder by a ghost, the method is very simple, that is, use something with strong yang energy to rekindle the extinguished yang fire.The most commonly used method is to use the blood from the rooster's comb, smear it on the shoulders, and then call the soul, trying all kinds of spirits.

This maze of ghost shadows is obviously also a method for ghosts to draw their souls. As long as the Yanghuo is protected, they will not be harmed by the shadow puppets.

When I thought about it, I had an idea in my mind.

If you want to keep the fire alive, you need something like cockscomb blood, but in the middle of the night, the cockscomb blood is definitely gone, so you have to replace it with something else.I thought about it, then turned my head, and said to Tofu earnestly, "Xiaodou, brother, I treat you well, right?" What do you want to do, kid?"

I said: "Although I sympathize with you, you haven't had sex until the seventh spring, but now it seems that this is pretty good news." Tofu looked at Feng Guishou beside him, wanting to cry but without tears, said : "This kind of thing, don't say it in front of others. What's wrong with a virgin, a virgin also has dignity!"

I laughed secretly in my heart, seeing that Tofu was in a hurry, I said, "It's not your fault, it's the girls' lack of vision. Do you want to save Bald Wei? Do you want to touch some valuable hardware? If you want to, then you have to do it." Make a little contribution."

"What contribution?" Tofu is often tricked by me on weekdays, and I have learned a lot from it, but now I have become smarter.

I explained my plan to him, although I can't find the cockscomb blood, but human blood is fine too, women are yin, men are yang, men's blood is full of yang, and a virgin like tofu, who has been around for ten thousand years, is said to be The person with the most yang energy should use his blood better than cockscomb blood.Tofu heard that he was going to have bloodletting, but he was unwilling to live or die, and struggled: "Actually, I lied to you. I was too impulsive once, and I spent 400 yuan to go once...you understand."

I couldn't help slapping him, and said: "Look at how promising you are, isn't it just to let blood, and not to cut your neck. It doesn't matter if you go there once, there are only three of us now, Lao Feng can't do it, he is old Bigger, weaker yang."

Tofu didn't give up, and said, "Then what about you?"

"Me?" I said: "I can't do it, I'm a cursed object, my blood doesn't help, thank God. Xiaodou, don't you want to hold back? Now is the time for you to work for the organization, man Man, you don’t bleed without tears, damn it...you hide.” Feng Gui and I pressed the tofu together to let the blood out, collected some in a water bottle, screwed on the bottle cap, and packed up our bags. Led by Feng Guishou, he headed towards the foot of the mountain overnight.

When passing by Fengzui Village, I only had time to take a look, and immediately felt that something was wrong with the layout of Fengzui Village.But when it comes to Feng Shui, I am not proficient in it, and I have only just started.Feng Shui is divided into big Feng Shui of mountains and rivers and small Feng Shui of Yin and Yang.In Grandpa's work notes, most of them are big geomantic omens, and small geomantic geomantic omens are only slightly mentioned. The small geomantic geomantic omen of Fengzui Village has a problem at first sight, but I couldn't find the source of the problem for a while. Feng Guishou hurried on his way.

Tofu was forcibly bloodletted by me. I was very angry. I greeted the eighteen generations of my ancestors one by one along the way. If it was anyone else, I would have beaten them long ago, but tofu is fine, because my ancestors are already familiar with him. up.

After rushing forward for a while, Feng Guishou said nervously: "It's almost here."

I immediately took out the water bottle, and asked the three of them to smear a blood mark on their shoulders and forehead, and then continued on their way.After a while, I saw Feng Guishou suddenly stop, with a look of horror on his face, he said: "Why is the man missing!"
